OREGON GOVERNOR’S CONFERENCE ON TOURISM

Scientists aiming to make adhesives that work in wet conditions

The party’s leading contenders, Bradbury and Kitzhaber, are both familiar faces in the political arena

By Henry Fountain New York Times News Service

SALT LAKE CITY — Along one wall of Dr. Russell Stewart’s laboratory at the University of Utah sits a saltwater tank containing a strange object: a rock-hard lump the size of a soccer ball, riddled with hundreds of small holes. It has the look of something that fell from outer space, but its origins are earthly, the intertidal waters of the California coast. It’s a home of sorts, occupied by a colony of Phragmatopoma californica, otherwise known as the sandcastle worm. Actually, it’s more of a condominium complex. Each hole is the entrance to a separate tube, built one upon another by worm after worm. P. californica is a master mason, fashioning its tube, a shelter that it never leaves, from grains of sand and tiny bits of scavenged shell. But it doesn’t slather on the mortar like a bricklayer. Rather, using a specialized organ on its head, it produces a microscopic dab or two of glue that it places, just so, on the existing structure. Then it wiggles a new grain into place and lets it set. What is most remarkable — and the reason these worms are in Stewart’s lab, far from their native habitat — is that it does all this underwater. “Man-made adhesives are very impressive,” said Stewart, an associate professor of bioengineering at the university. “You can glue airplanes together with them. But this animal has been gluing things together underwater for several hundred million years, which we still can’t do.” See Adhesives / A4

In Oregon and far beyond, ‘culture matters’ By Tim Doran The Bulletin

Wade Davis, National Geographic explorer in residence, introduced Oregon tourism professionals to cultures from around the world during his keynote address Monday at a state tourism gathering in Bend. An author, photographer and filmmaker, Davis spoke about the wisdom to be found among

the world’s cultures, weaving in his exploration adventures as photographs — many of them faces captured in close up — appeared on two screens. “Culture is not trivial,” he told tourism industry professionals gathered at The Riverhouse Hotel & Convention Center. “Culture matters.” Davis gave his address at the 26th annual Oregon Governor’s Conference on Tourism, which

began Sunday and ends today. Gov. Ted Kulongoski spoke to participants Monday morning. It’s the first time Bend has hosted the conference, which is billed as the tourism industry’s premier gathering, although it has been held previously in the region. About 420 people had registered as of Monday afternoon, conference officials said. See Tourism / A4

A masterpiece lost ... and found By Carol J. Williams Los Angeles Times

The sandcastle worm makes its tube-shaped home from pieces of sand and shell and attaches them with its own natural glue.

LA MESA, Calif. — After a lunch of chopped egg and crackers, Claude Cassirer plants his walker on the worn floorboards of his tiny living room, rhythmically inching his way down the hall to his study. It is a short constitutional he takes each day to regard a gilt-framed memento of a lost life of privilege. The frame holds a copy of an Impressionist masterpiece, “Rue Saint-Honore, Apres Midi, Effet de Pluie,” by Camille Pissarro, which takes him back

SALEM — Familiar faces lead the race for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination, those of Bill Bradbury and John Kitzhaber. Kitzhaber spent two terms as Oregon’s governor, from 1995 to 2003, while Bradbury served as Oregon’s secretary of state from 2000 to 2008. Now they’re back for another shot at the state’s political stage.

LOS ANGELES — Colorado researchers have discovered and partially mapped a major urban center once occupied by the Purepecha of Mexico, a little-known people who fought the betterknown Aztecs to a standstill and who controlled much of western Mexico until diseases brought by the Spanish decimated them. The “proto-urban center,” which researchers have not yet named, sat on volcanic rock on the shores of Lake Patzcuaro in the central Mexican state of Michoacan, now a tourist destination. It supported as many as 40,000 people until the consolidation of the Purepecha empire around AD 1350 led most of its inhabitants to relocate to the new capital of Tzintzuntzan, six miles away.

In a story about a Deschutes County budget proposal for pensions and health care, which appeared Saturday, April 10 on Page A1, the impact of a county budget proposal appeared incorrectly in the headline. The county could pay more for workers’ health care. In the same story, County Administrator Dave Kanner’s budget proposal was reported incorrectly. Kanner’s proposal is to lower contributions to the county’s pension reserve fund, but actual payments to the Public Employees Retirement System for employee retirement funds would be unchanged.

Space is at a premium in overhead bins, and passengers may find themselves playing ‘roller-bag derby’ By Julie Johnsson Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO — Every airline passenger is entitled to overhead space, right? Wrong. On a typical domestic flight, six passengers share luggage bins that fit four wheelie bags, at most, leaving some fliers out of luck at a time when more of them are opting to lug their bags, rather than check them, to avoid airline fees. There are also more passengers competing for that space because planes are again filled to near-record levels, the result of carriers’ capacity cuts and a rebound from last year’s recession. Boarding lines, rarely speedy, now often move in reverse when the last luggage bins fill and passengers are forced to back off a plane and return to the jet bridge to check bags. The next obsession, at least for passengers of Spirit Airlines, may be cramming items under airplane seats. The Florida discount carrier said last week that it would charge customers as much as $45 each way to place bulky items in overhead bins, in an effort to get people on and off its planes faster. Other airlines will watch Spirit’s experiment.

Coping with changes Airline staff and passengers are still trying to figure out how best to cope with the changes in boarding and behavior resulting from the new fees on checked baggage, which were widely adopted as the travel market fell into a tailspin in 2008. Since the start of last year, the number of bags checked at the boarding gate by Chicago-based United Airlines has risen nearly 50 percent, while the volume of bags checked at ticket counters has dropped 18 percent. At American Airlines, more passengers now carry on bags than check them. “Flying definitely has changed over the last 18 months,” said Tom Parsons, CEO of BestFares.com, a low-cost travel Web site. “It’s a roller-bag derby.” One year ago, when many flights were only two-thirds full, only four people sat in the six seats that share a bin. Now, “in effect, you have 50 percent more contention for overhead space. What’s fine for four people isn’t for six,” said aviation consultant Robert Mann, president of R.W. Mann & Co., an air-

Tips for traveling with carry-on bags • To lessen the risk of theft, don’t pack iPods or jewelry in any bag that won’t fit under an airline seat. • Don’t overstuff outer pockets of roller bags, a magnet for airline staff trolling for oversize carry-ons, said Tom Parsons, CEO of BestFares.com. • Don’t test your carry-on in a bag-sizer at your departure gate. “Go to an empty gate,” Parsons advises. • Do your homework to avoid being in the last group to board. On some airlines this means buying seats at the rear of a plane. On United, passengers who buy window seats board in Group 2. United also sells passes for its priority security and boarding lines. • If your bag doesn’t fit in the cabin, don’t worry about a fee: Airlines almost never assess a charge for checking luggage at the gate.

line industry analysis firm. “When you compare the storage space available on board today to 20 years ago, the per-passenger number has to be double, even triple, what it used to be. And, yet, it’s never enough.” Both the fees and space constraints can contribute to a breakdown in social conventions as passengers increasingly feel like they’re left to fend for themselves. “It’s survival of the fittest,” said Shelly Casale, a software consultant from Des Plaines, Ill., as she boarded a United Airlines flight at O’Hare International Airport last week that was bound for Boston.

‘We’ve never had a good handle on this’ Cabin baggage has been a growing inconvenience for airlines and passengers alike since the first wheeled luggage rolled onto the market in the early 1990s. “The truth is we’ve never had a good handle on this,” said Darryl Jenkins, founder of The Airline Zone, a Web site devoted to airline economics. Carry-on bags didn’t become the primary source of luggage for passengers until carriers introduced fees for infrequent fliers and then raised them to $25 to check a first bag and $35 for a second item. United, among the first to adopt the fees, has seen the volume of checked bags fall for 25 consecutive months, said Cindy Szadokierski, United’s vice president of airport operations planning and United Express. Every major U.S. airline except for Southwest Airlines has introduced such fees since 2008, and no wonder. The 10 largest U.S. carriers collected $739.8 million in baggage charges during the third quarter of 2009, double prior-year totals, according to the Bureau of Transportation Statistics. As planes fill and tensions rise, carriers are exploring ways to ease congestion in their aisles. American offers a valet service so travelers on its Eagle regional jets can easily hand off bags that don’t fit overhead. The Texas-

based carrier also plans to begin scanning this luggage later this year to reduce the risk it is lost. Airplane manufacturer Boeing Co. is finding a growing market for the new luggage compartments that it created for its 787 Dreamliner and revamped for its 747 and 737 jets. The hinged bins handle far larger bags than current compartments, giving every traveler access to overhead space. Chicago-based Boeing anticipated the carry-on squeeze, designing the new bins before baggage fees were commonplace. Dozens of airlines have purchased the new 737 interiors, said Kent Craver, Boeing’s regional director for passenger satisfaction and revenue. “We want to remove things that cause anxiety,” he said. “People like to fly; they just don’t like to fly today.” United is also assigning teams of workers to flights most prone to baggage meltdowns during peak holiday travel periods like Thanksgiving, Christmas and Easter, a program it tested at O’Hare and is rolling out at other large airports.

shows that carry-on complaints to the U.S. Department of Transportation more than doubled last year. They accounted for less than 1 percent of the total placed with the department and were offset by the fact that U.S. carriers lost 942,000 fewer checked bags in 2009 than in 2008. Still, the complaints show people irked and sometimes victimized by the bad behavior of other passengers or airline workers: belongings jammed in overstuffed bins falling out and striking travelers on the head, jewelry stolen from bags checked at the gate, and airline workers arbitrarily enforcing bag size limits. Flight attendants, forced to be both baggage cops and peacemakers, say they are paying a heavy toll. More than 80 percent claim they pulled muscles or felt pain while dealing with bags or bins, according to the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA. Overhead space typically starts to become a concern for flight attendants about halfway through boarding, said Sara Nelson, a United flight attendant and spokeswoman for its flight attendants union. The stress builds as the plane fills, since neither flight attendants, pilots nor gate agents want to be blamed for a late departure. Injuries are likeliest in those last minutes before the door closes, as flight attendants rush to stow bags. “Everybody feels the pressure,” Nelson said.

Airline: US Airways Flight date: Aug. 25, 2009 Complaint: Passenger feels “excessive carry-on baggage and oversize luggage,” such as duffle bags and garment bags, are unsafe. “I followed the airline’s and the airline’s industry advice and limited my carryon baggage and overpacked my checked luggage,” which resulted in an overweight fee, the passenger said. Airline’s response: “The primary safety concern with carry-on baggage is that it fit in the overhead compartment or completely underneath the seat in front of you. We ... train our airport employees and flight attendants to be on the lookout for large carry-on bags so they can be checked,” said Morgan Durrant, a US Airways spokesman. Airline: Continental Airlines Flight date: Feb. 18, 2010 Complaint: Jewelry was stolen from a passenger’s bag after it was checked at the gate. “I did everything according to the rules, i.e., my bag was the proper carry-on size. I should not suffer a monetary loss for something over which I had no control,” the passenger said. Airline’s response: “Customers may carry bags on board that meet the requirements of our carry-on bag policies. In the event that an aircraft’s overhead bins are full, excess carry-on bags are checked at the aircraft door and returned at the baggage claim area of the final destination. Since our baggage liability does not cover high-value and fragile items such as jewelry or watches, we recommend that customers refrain from packing those types of things in checked luggage,” said Mary Clark, spokeswoman for Continental Airlines.

Feeling the pressure The gate agents and ramp workers nab boarding customers with carry-on bags as the overhead bins fill and quickly tag and cart away that luggage to the cargo hold. They were on hand last week as Casale waited among the final group of passengers to board a packed Boeing 757 headed for Boston. As she stepped down the jet bridge, there were still 27 people waiting to follow her to the few remaining empty seats, and all but a couple of them clutched black roll-aboard bags. On board, a flight attendant hurriedly repacked overhead bins at the rear of the plane, returning coats to their owners and tilting bags on to their sides to maximize the little remaining empty space. Gate agents, meanwhile, checked about 15 bags from the final boarding customers. This is how it is supposed to work. But it’s not always the case. Exclusive Chicago Tribune data

T S Conan O’Brien finds new late-night home: TBS By Frazier Moore

The Washington Post is awarded 4 Pulitzers; New York Times gets 3

President Barack Obama meets with President Hu Jintao of China during the international nuclear summit in Washington, D.C., on Monday. Representatives from some 47 countries are attending the summit this week.

By Richard Perez-Pena New York Times News Service

The Associated Press

NEW YORK — The latenight guessing game is over, with a startling twist: Conan O’Brien has chosen TBS as his future talk-show home. Expected to debut in November, the as-yet-untitled show will return O’Brien to the air after an absence that began in January when he abruptly left NBC, his employer of 17 years. O’Brien’s new program will air Mondays through Thursdays at 11 p.m. Eastern Conan time, which O’Brien will shift “ L o p e z Tonight,” starring George Lopez, from 11 p.m. to midnight. O’Brien’s show will originate from Los Angeles, where he moved from New York for his short-lived stint hosting “The Tonight Show.” For the second half of each show, he will face off against Jay Leno, who replaced him. The five-year contract gives O’Brien ownership of the show, according to a person familiar with the deal who spoke on condition of anonymity because the person was not authorized to publicly discuss it. Upon TBS’ announcement Monday, O’Brien quickly fired out a celebratory tweet. “The good news: I will be doing a show on TBS starting in November! The bad news: I’ll be playing Rudy on the all new Cosby Show,” he posted on Twitter.

Comedy tour starts in Eugene Conan O’Brien opened his two-month “Legally Prohibited From Being Funny on Television Tour” on Monday night in Eugene. The former “Tonight” host is barred from appearing on TV until September under the terms of his $32 million exit from NBC. While O’Brien has long performed monologues and sketches on TV, he’s trying out a new role as standup. A number of his 30 stops are in college towns. — The Associated Press

China close to backing sanctions against Iran Obama also secures promise that Ukraine will dispose of uranium By David E. Sanger and Mark Landler New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama secured a promise from President Hu Jintao of China on Monday to join negotiations on a new package of sanctions against Iran, administration officials said, but Hu made no specific commitment to backing measures that the United States considers severe enough to force a change in direction in Iran’s nuclear program. In a 90-minute conversation here before the opening of a summit meeting on nuclear security, Obama sought to win more co-

operation from China by directly addressing one of the main issues behind Beijing’s reluctance to confront Iran: its concern that Iran could retaliate by cutting off oil shipments to China. The Chinese import nearly 12 percent of their oil from Iran. Obama assured Hu that he was “sensitive to China’s energy needs” and would work to make sure that Beijing had a steady supply of oil if Iran cut China off in retaliation for joining in severe sanctions. American officials portrayed the Chinese response as the most encouraging sign yet that Beijing would support an international effort to ratchet up the pressure on Iran and as a sign of “international unity” on stopping Iran’s nuclear program before the country can develop a working nuclear weapon.

Mine blast probe awaits recovery of final 9 bodies By Lawrence Messina and Tim Huber The Associated Press

CHARLESTON, W.Va. — Federal investigators arrived Monday at the West Virginia mine where 29 men died in an explosion last week to begin piecing together what caused the worst U.S. coal mining disaster since 1970. Thirty miles to the north, hundreds of mourners including the governor observed a moment of silence at the state Capitol, during a wreath-laying ceremony at the foot of a statue honoring the state’s miners. Karen Barker was among scores of state workers who attended. “My dad was a miner and my

grandfather was a miner. I have no idea how these people feel about losing their family member, but I can imagine,” said Barker, 46, of Charleston. The team of inspectors at the Upper Big Branch mine weren’t heading underground until searchers removed all the bodies from the mine. The team from the Mine Safety and Health Administration briefed Secretary of Labor Hilda Solis and MSHA director Joe Main at the mine. The last bodies were expected to be taken out Monday, state mine office spokeswoman Jama Jarrett said. Recovery efforts had been stalled in previous days by volatile gases, but teams entered after the tunnels were ventilated.

The session with Hu came just before the opening of the first summit meeting devoted to the challenges of keeping nuclear weapons and material out of the hands of terrorists. At a dinner Monday evening in the cavernous Washington Convention Center, Obama led a discussion of the nature of the threat and the vulnerability of tons of nuclear material that could be fashioned into a weapon. The main focus of Obama’s meeting is to obtain commitments from each of the 47 countries attending to lock up or eliminate nuclear material. One such agreement was announced Monday with Ukraine which, after the fall of the Soviet Union, was, because of its remainder stockpiles of nuclear missiles and bombs, briefly the world’s third-largest nuclear power.

The Washington Post won four Pulitzer Prizes on Monday for its work in 2009, and The New York Times won three, while ProPublica became the first of the new breed of online, nonprofit news organizations to win the most prestigious award in print journalism. The winning journalism this year covered a broad range of topics, but largely steered clear of those that had most dominated the national discussion in 2009: the financial meltdown, the debate over health care and the partisan rancor in Washington. The Bristol Herald Courier of southwestern Virginia, circulation 29,000, won the coveted prize for public service, for work by Daniel Gilbert, revealing that many energy companies failed to pay royalties on natural gas drilling and that the royalties that were paid were not reaching the local people who deserved them. At The Post, Kathleen Parker, a political columnist, won the award for commentary; Sarah Kaufman won for criticism, for her writing on dance; a Washington Post magazine article by Gene Weingarten about parents who cause the death of their children by leaving them in sweltering cars won the prize for feature writing; and Anthony Shadid, a longtime Iraq correspondent, won for international reporting. Raquel Rutledge of The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel won the local reporting prize, for exposing fraud in Wisconsin’s child care subsidy program. Coverage of the shooting death of four police officers won the breaking news award for the staff of The Seattle Times.

U.S. troops kill 4 Afghans on bus The Associated Press KANDAHAR, Afghanistan — Afghans burned tires and chanted “Death to America” after U.S. troops fired on a civilian bus near Kandahar, killing four people and wounding more than a dozen. Afghanistan’s president accused NATO of violating its commitment to

safeguard civilian lives. The attack Monday enraged Afghan officials and the public in Kandahar, the Taliban’s birthplace, and dealt a fresh blow to U.S. and NATO efforts to win popular support for a coming offensive to drive the insurgents from the biggest city in the south.

Adhesives Continued from A1 Stewart is one of a handful of researchers around the country who are developing adhesives that work in wet conditions, with worms, mussels, barnacles and other marine creatures as their guide. While there are many possible applications — the Navy, for one, has a natural interest in the research, and finances some of it — the biggest goal is to make glues for use in the ultimate wet environment: the human body. It is too early to declare the researchers’ work a success, but they are testing adhesives on animal bones and other tissues and are optimistic that their approaches will work. “I would have moved on to something else if I didn’t think so,” said Dr. Phillip Messersmith, a Northwestern University professor who is developing adhesives based on those made by mussels and is testing whether they can be used to repair tears in amniotic sacs, among other applications.

Made for humans? While some skin sealants — mostly of the cyanoacrylate, or superglue, variety — are on the market, their effectiveness is limited. They often cannot be used, for example, on incisions where the skin is pulled or stretched, or must be used in tandem with sutures or staples. Adhesives strong enough to hold skin together under tension, or repair bone or other internal tissues — without inviting attack by the body’s immune system — have eluded researchers. Nature shows how it can be done, said Dr. J. Herbert Waite, a professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara, who did much of the early work of identifying the adhesives that mussels use to stick to rocks and other surfaces. But researchers should view nature’s approach as a general guide, he said, rather than a precise pathway. “In my view of bioinspired research or materials, I almost always don’t think it’s safe to be slavishly wed to the specific chemistry,” Waite said, “but rather to distill the important concepts that can then be mimicked.” So the goal of these researchers is not to duplicate natural adhesives that work well underwater, but to imitate them and make glues that are even better suited for humans. “We want to take elements of the structural adhesives that

chemists have made and combine them with the unique elements that nature has used,” Stewart said. Synthetic adhesives might not only work better, but they should also be able to be produced in large quantities. Marine organisms make their glues in very small amounts — the typical dollop from a sandcastle worm, for example, is on the order of 100 picoliters. Even if it could somehow be collected before it set, it would take roughly 50 million dollops to make a teaspoon. “At the end of the day, the single biggest reason to do this is you can get more stuff,” said Dr. Jonathan Wilker, an associate professor of inorganic chemistry at Purdue University who works on analogues of mussel adhesives and studies oysters, barnacles and other organisms as well.

and amine groups, molecular fragments that are well-known adhesion promoters. “Those side chains are probably what helps it wet the surface in the first place,” Stewart said. The worm produces the glue in two parts, with different proteins and side groups in each. The two are made separately in a gland, and, like an epoxy, come together only as they are secreted. When they mix they form a compound that, even though water based, does not dissolve. The glue sets initially in about 30 seconds, probably triggered by the abrupt change in acidity — it is far more acidic than seawater, Stewart said. Over the next six hours, the adhesive hardens completely as cross-links form between the proteins. “It turns into this thing that has the consistency of shoe leather,” he said. “It’s still flexible but very tough.”

Sticky challenges

Stewart’s research

But there are several hurdles to making glues that work underwater, Wilker said. “One is that whenever the surface is really wet, you’re going to be bonding to the surface layer of water, rather than the surface itself. So it’s going to lift off.” Another is that in order to cure, glues need a little water or none at all — they need to dry out. Most will not cure underwater, but those that do tend to set as soon as they are out of the container, overwhelmed by all the water. Beyond that, Messersmith said, as with any glue, “adhesion is a complicated thing, even when it appears very simple.” “There are events going on at the interface of adhesive and surface, and there’s the strength of the adhesive itself,” he said. “If you have one but not the other, you’re nowhere, really, because somewhere you’ll have a weak point in the system and it will break.” The sandcastle worm resolves the underwater issues neatly. The proteins that are the basis of its adhesive contain phosphate

Like other researchers, Stewart decided to use synthetic polymers as the backbone for his adhesive, and to ignore many other aspects of the worm’s chemistry. “Who says the exact amino acids are important?” he said, citing one example. “That’s just something the worm is stuck with. “On the other hand, if we just decide maybe the real important part is the side chains, that’s very simple to copy with a synthetic polymer.” Stewart’s adhesive forms what chemists call a complex coacervate, a kind of molecular circling of the wagons against water. So it’s an injectable, immiscible liquid. “Perfect for a waterborne underwater adhesive,” he said. But unlike the worm, he can tweak the chemistry to make it cure faster or slower depending on the application. Stewart says the glue appears to be strong enough to repair fractures in craniofacial bones, an application he is studying with rats. He also thinks it may be useful

for repairing corneal incisions, and for setting other bone fractures more precisely, by anchoring small pieces that cannot be secured with pins or screws. “But we don’t have any fantasies about gluing femurs back together,” he said. Stewart has worked with sandcastle worms since 2004, and recently began studying another group of tube-building creatures, caddisfly larvae. Fly fishermen are familiar with these organisms, which inhabit the bottom of freshwater streams until the flies hatch. Caddisflies build their tubes in the same way as P. californica, but with a much different glue — strands of silk that attach to the bits of sand, tying them all together. At some evolutionary point tens of millions of years ago the flies were related to silkworms, so the fact that they spin silk is not too surprising. “Except it’s a sticky, underwater silk,” Stewart said. He is just beginning to characterize the silk and understand how the caddisflies produce it, but the eventual goal is the same as with the sandcastle worm. “We want to try to mimic it someday soon, and spin fibers underwater,” he said. “Waterborne polymers underwater, which might have some medical application.”

Biocompatibility A big concern with any synthetic glue, no matter how closely it mimics one from a living creature, is biocompatibility. “We might be able to solve the adhesion problems,” Messersmith said, “but then we confront the biological problems.” There are medical superglues that do form strong bonds, he said, “but those materials are highly immunogenic.” Stewart said that so far he has seen little inflammation in the rat studies, and little if any evidence of toxicity or inhibition of bone healing. But he noted that since one goal would be to have the glue eventually degrade, some response by the body would seem to be necessary. With a bone glue, for example, “you want it to degrade roughly at the same rate as the bone regrows,” he said. So in degradable versions of his synthetic polymer glues, Stewart actually adds back proteins that can be attacked and broken down by specialized cells. “You wouldn’t want some plastic glue in your bones for the rest of your life,” he said.

Mexico Continued from A1 “What’s really interesting about the site is that it gives us a window into the pre-state period when social complexity was increasing and people were congregating together and starting to modify the landscape,” said archaeologist Christopher Fisher of Colorado State University, who will present the findings later this week at a St. Louis meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Finding that the city’s population fell as the capital grew will also help rewrite the history of the Purepecha, who were also known as Tarascans, said archaeologist Gary Feinman of Chicago’s Field Museum, who was not involved in the research. It indicates, he said, that concentration of the population — rather than population growth as had previously been believed — “was a critical element in the concentration of power, particularly in Mesoamerica, where you did not have domesticated animals. People were absolutely critical for moving goods, constructing things and producing food.” Despite the fact that the Purepecha empire was as large and powerful as that of the Aztecs, they “have gotten the short end of the stick as far as public attention goes,” Fisher said. Much of what we know about the Aztecs comes from the colonial records of the Spanish expeditionary force, he noted, but the Spaniards — who encountered the Aztecs first — had little contact with the Purepecha until their civilization was already doomed by disease. Yet the Purepecha not only controlled most of western Mexico, but also had a strongly fortified border with the Aztec empire and ultimately defeated the Aztec army in a fierce battle in the late 15th century. Part of their strength came from their skill as coppersmiths and, despite the fact that they were fierce enemies, the Aztecs traded extensively with them to acquire copper tools, bells and other valuable objects. Fisher and his team discovered the site last summer as part of their ongoing survey of the Lake Patzcuaro basin. Be-

President pressured for response to sinking of patrol boat By John M. Glionna Los Angeles Times

SEOUL, South Korea — No one knows what sank a South Korean naval patrol boat in the middle of the night last month, but that hasn’t prevented a growing public clamor demanding that President Lee Mying Bak challenge the North Korean regime over the disaster. The 1,200-ton Cheonan went down March 26 near the disputed sea border with North Korea, split in half by a mysterious blast. Of the 46 missing crewmen, only two bodies have been recovered. With speculation rampant that a North Korean torpedo sank the Cheonan, critics say the lack of response makes the government appear weak in the face of obvious hostilities by the North. In recent days, newspaper stories and opinion pieces have steadily increased pressure on Lee’s administration to demand answers from Kim Jong Il’s regime. Adding to public suspicion that overcautious officials are trying to hide something, the South Korean government has sent conflicting messages on the sinking. Lee has asked for the public’s patience, warning against “premature conclusions” as the military prepares for salvage efforts. But Defense Minister Kim Tae Young has said he believes a torpedo could have hit the ship and speculated that “North Korea may have intentionally floated underwater mines to inflict harm on us.”

Tourism Continued from A1 On Monday evening, participants received the red-carpet treatment at the Tower Theatre and enjoyed food prepared by chefs from downtown Bend restaurants. This year’s theme, “Map Your Adventure,” ties in with a joint effort by Oregon and Washington tourism officials and the National Geographic Society to create the Central Cascades geotourism mapguide, which highlights recreation, geography, events and culture from Mount Rainier in Washington to Crater Lake in Oregon. Released to the public in January, the mapguide has also been inserted into the May-June issue of National Geographic Traveler, which was made available to conference participants. The mapguide also reflects the tourism industry’s push to be more environmentally conscious. Travel Oregon, which organizes the conference, has made conservation and green development part of its strategic plan and has started identifying tourism-related businesses with environmentally friendly policies. In his keynote speech, Davis addressed issues found in his latest book, “The Wayfinders: Why Ancient Wisdom Matters in the Modern World.” He told the audience of Polynesians who had such deep knowledge of the ocean they could distinguish among five different types of sea swells. He talked of Amazonian Indians with the knowledge to combine different plants to

make drugs used in rituals. “The Indians tell us the plants speak to them,” he said. Davis’ experiences stem from his explorations. He spent more than three years in the Amazon and in the Andes, and has lived among 15 indigenous groups in eight Latin American nations exploring and collecting plants, according to his biography on the National Geographic Web site. He holds degrees from Harvard University in anthropology and biology and a Ph.D. in ethnobotany, In the 1980s, he researched the practice of voodoo and the drug used in rituals in Haiti. “Voodoo is not a black magic cult,” he said. It’s a practice that started with religious traditions that Africans taken in the slave trade brought with them. Voodoo mixes the living with the dead, and the dead must be made to serve the living, he said. Disease, industrialization, deforestation and global warming all have contributed to the loss of these cultures from which we can learn, Davis said. In places near Greenland where ice once remained from September to July, it now lasts only from November to March, and the people who live there must now hunt by boat. We must choose, he said, whether we want to live in a monochromatic world, or one filled with the many colors of different cultures and diversity. “What kind of world do we want to live in?” he asked.

cause the lake level has been dropping, the site now sits a couple of miles east of the lake — Fisher is vague about the precise location because of fears of looting — but at its height was probably no more than a quarter mile from the shore. The site sits on a landform called malpais, a young, rugged volcanic landscape “that looks like gravel dumped into a big pile,” he said. Because it is not suitable for agriculture, the foundations of structures have been largely preserved. The site encompasses about 1,200 acres. Using rugged computers and specialized GPS receivers, the team has so far carefully mapped about a fifth of it, recording more than 1,300 features, including house mounds, room blocks, buildings, small temples, plazas and agricultural terraces. Such detailed mapping “is quite revolutionary because it gives us a chance to see what the economic picture was, and the social differentiation,” said archaeologist Barbara Stark of Arizona State University, who was also not involved in the research. “It’s hard to describe how important that is for our understanding of these societies.” Most of the site dates from AD 1000 to about 1350, when it began to shrink as the population moved elsewhere. By 1500, it was largely abandoned. Most of the rest of the empire disappeared soon after. Smallpox and other diseases that were inadvertently spread to the Aztecs by the Spanish were transmitted to the Purepecha as well, killing 80 percent to 90 percent of the population. By the time the Spanish attacked them, there was hardly anyone left to resist.

Painting Continued from A1 Adolf Hitler’s rise to power in 1933 scattered his Jewish family of industrialists and art collectors around the world. In the early days of the Third Reich, Cassirer’s father, Fritz, moved him to Prague, where the father founded a newspaper for others who had fled the threat of Nazi persecution. It would fail in the increasingly anti-Semitic climate of Central Europe as war approached, forcing the elder Cassirer to send his teenage son to boarding school in Britain. “I was a big shot at school because I could translate Hitler’s speeches from the radio. Everyone wanted to know what he was saying,” Cassirer says of his schoolmates and masters, all of them aghast at the Nazi dictator’s fanatical oration. After an ill-timed move to France in 1940, just ahead of the Nazi occupation, the young Cassirer managed to escape a year later, making his way via Casablanca in Morocco to an impoverished immigrant’s life in Cleveland.

Painting disappears ... His grandmother, who had moved to Munich and married a prominent physician after her only grandchild left, was among the last of the family to flee the looming horrors of the Holocaust. She was forced to surrender the Pissarro to a Nazi official in 1939 in exchange for an exit visa, avoiding the fate that would later befall her sister in the death camp of Theresienstadt. “My grandmother never knew what happened to the painting,” Cassirer says of the 1897 Pissarro his great-grandfather, Julius, had purchased directly from the Caribbean-born Jewish artist. Cassirer arrived in Cleveland penniless in the summer of 1941, working first as a stock boy for a department store owned by a

Democrats Continued from A1 Both men bring an impressive list of accomplishments. Bradbury, as secretary of state, presided over the task of implementing Oregon’s well-regarded vote-by-mail system. Before that, as a lawmaker, he cosponsored the bill that established small business development centers on state university campuses. Kitzhaber spearheaded the idea of strategic planning and performance measurements for state government while in office. Before that, as a lawmaker, he authored the Oregon Health Plan that sought to provide coverage for low-income people. He has remained active in health care reform since leaving office. Whichever candidate wins in November will immediately face a very pressing problem: a projected $2.5 billion hole in the 2011-13 budget. Neither one has a magic short-term solution; rather, they say it will take time. Kitzhaber says that over the long term, he would promote conservation projects to cut down on energy costs as well as seek efficiencies in the Oregon Health Plan. He also would use the bargaining process to urge unions to make changes in the state contribution to PERS retirements as well as health benefits to help prevent layoffs. He also would promote lowcost solutions to issues like Oregon’s projected water shortages, such as importing beavers whose dams will slow water flow and promote underground aquifers. “I’m not saying beavers are the solution to Oregon’s long-term water problems, but I think we need to do all we can do on the low budget end,” he said. Kitzhaber says to help business, he thinks Oregon’s tax structure needs to be revisited, including its high personal income tax. While Bradbury says he shares Kitzhaber’s concerns and thinks the recent tax hikes should have been temporary, he has no intention of revisiting what voters approved in Measures 66 and 67. Bradbury says that over the long term, he hopes to get a measure on the 2012 ballot that would cut tax breaks by 5 percent, then use the resulting nearly $2 billion to fund education. He also wants to form a state bank, as North Dakota has, only Bradbury wants to use the bank to promote sustain-

Cassirer says neither he nor his grandmother ever lost faith that the painting would one day be found. Through the years, the stories of former owners recovering looted treasures that had been located in museums and private collections filled him with hope.

Bradbury has former Governor Barbara Roberts, former Vice President Al Gore and former presidential candidate Howard Dean. Locally speaking, personal connections explain how some Central Oregonians are lining up in the Democratic race. Bend lawyer Roy Dwyer said he doesn’t have a problem with Kitzhaber, but he’s known Bradbury for 16 years and thinks the man is a better listener. “I think Bill’s a little more mellow than Kitzhaber,” he said. Patricia Gainsforth, a real estate broker who sits on the Deschutes Soil and Water Conservation District as well as the Tumalo Irrigation District, similarly says she’s known Bradbury for a long time. “I think he’s one of the most clear and honest people I’ve ever met,” she said. Les Stiles, the former Deschutes sheriff, says he considers Kitzhaber a friend — but that’s not why he’s voting for him. “If we don’t have someone in there with a plan, some vision and some leadership we’re in deep trouble,” he said. Deschutes County Commissioner Alan Unger said he likes that Kitzhaber has experience and will “govern from the middle.” Kitzhaber leads in fundraising, having raised more than $1 million, while Bradbury has raised more than $400,000. Their only rival for the nomination, a retired elementary school custodian named Roger Obrist, says he has no plans to raise money.

“I was in shock,” Cassirer says of the news.

... and reappears A catalog of Pissarro’s works noted it had been acquired by Baron Hans-Heinrich ThyssenBornemisza, a Swiss art collector and scion of Germany’s Thyssen steel-making empire. The Pissarro had been leased to the Spanish government along with the rest of the baron’s collection, the whole of which Spain bought in 1993 for $327 million. “Rue Saint-Honore” has been displayed in a government-run museum near the famed Prado since then and reproduced for sales and promotions. With only meager savings at their disposal, the Cassirers turned to the World Jewish Congress for help in approaching the

THE BULLETIN • Tuesday, April 13, 2010 A5 government of Spain, a signatory to agreements to restore Nazilooted artworks to their rightful owners. “They have been most unfriendly, not cooperative in any way,” Cassirer says of the Spaniards. After fruitless efforts to persuade Madrid that he was the rightful owner, Cassirer filed suit in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles in 2005 against the Kingdom of Spain and the Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection Foundation. Although Spain signed accords promising restitution to victims of Nazi art expropriations, the country and foundation have fought Cassirer on jurisdictional grounds, claiming the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act protects them from U.S. court proceedings. One issue delaying trial is whether Cassirer first needs to petition Spanish courts to resolve the ownership dispute before U.S. federal courts can consider his claim. For nearly five years, lawyers and judges have debated that question, and also if Spain could be made to compensate for the wrongdoing of another country — Nazi Germany.

A jurisdictional battle The painting’s provenance after Cassirer’s grandmother left Germany was as tortuous as the Continent’s history. Jakob Scheidwimmer, the Nazi-appointed Munich art dealer who forced her to “sell” it, traded the painting to another dealer who was persecuted by the Nazis and fled with it to Holland. After Germany invaded Holland, the Gestapo seized the painting and returned it to Germany, where it was sold at auction to an anonymous buyer in 1943, according to court documents. After the war, the German government voided the dubious 1939 sale and declared Lilly Cassirer Neubauer the rightful owner should the painting ever be found. The Bonn government

in the late 1950s paid her token restitution of about $13,000, which she had to share with others thought to have acquired it legally after it was taken from her. The painting is now valued at $20 million. Should the case go to trial, Spain is likely to argue that Cassirer’s grandmother has already been compensated, but many legal experts believe the reparations paid by postwar Germany shouldn’t affect the family’s claim. That issue of jurisdiction is now before a full 11-judge panel of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals, but a decision is probably still months away. The painting surfaced at a New York gallery in 1952 and was sold to a private collector in St. Louis, then to an unknown dealer in 1976 and soon thereafter to Thyssen-Bornemisza, one of the world’s foremost collectors. Spain paid the baron $50 million in 1988 to lease his collection for a decade, and halfway through bought it outright. The baron had designated Spain for his collection, valued at more than $2 billion, an apparently sentimental gesture honoring the last of his five wives, a former Spanish beauty queen. ThyssenBornemisza died in 2002. “The Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection Foundation thoroughly reviewed the complete historical record on Mr. Cassirer’s alleged claim and respectfully denied it,” said Thaddeus Stauber of Nixon Peabody LLP’s Los Angeles office, which represents the foundation. Citing the statute granting foreign states immunity from U.S. lawsuits except under a few defined conditions, Stauber said “we do not think that the case properly belongs in the U.S. courts.” A federal district court and a three-judge panel of the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals disagreed, both citing the undisputed dispossession of Lilly Cassirer Neubauer as justifying an exception to the immunity statute.

Tide turns in favor of Thai political protesters

IN POLAND, A TRAGEDY UNITES A NATION

By Thomas Fuller New York Times News Service

BANGKOK — The battle of wills between the Thai government and tens of thousands of protesters barricaded in the streets of Bangkok appeared to turn in favor of the protesters on Monday, when the country’s army chief shunned a military solution to the crisis and the prime minister’s party suddenly and unexpectedly faced the prospect of dissolution. Two days after repulsing a blood-soaked military crackdown, the protesters cheered jubilantly at the announcement that Thailand’s Election Commission had recommended that the party of the prime minister, Abhisit Vejjajiva, be disbanded on charges of receiving an illegal donation. “This government’s time in power is nearly over,” Veera Musikapong, a protest leader, said to throngs of demonstrators. Veera and other opposition figures said they would maintain their demonstrations to press Abhisit to resign. The announcement by the Election Commission came hours after the head of the army, Gen. Anupong Paochinda, appeared to rule out further military action to remove protesters, saying, “The situation requires that the problem be solved by politics.” Anupong also described the dissolution of parliament, the main goal of the protesters, as “a reasonable step.” The general’s comments were a stinging blow to Abhisit, who is portrayed by protesters as a puppet of Thailand’s elite and who came to power 16 months ago as part of a coalition brokered in part by the military. For the past month, Abhisit’s government has operated from a military base on the outskirts of Bangkok as demonstrators expanded their street protests.

A soldier stands guard near a sea of candles in front of the presidential palace in Warsaw on Monday, two days after Polish President Lech Kaczynski died in a plane crash. Kaczynski, his wife and some of the country’s highest military and civilian leaders died on Saturday, when the presidential plane crashed as it came in for a landing in thick fog in western Russia. Poland’s interim president, Bronislaw Komorowski, reassured his countrymen Monday that the government continues to function despite the tragedy. Komorowski, the speaker of Parliament who assumed presidential powers according to the constitution, vowed in a short

televised address to work closely with parliamentary political factions in naming replacements for posts left vacant by the crash. “The parliament should demonstrate unity in view of the national tragedy,” Komorowski said in somber tones. As he spoke from inside the presidential palace, thousands of Poles lined up in silence on the esplanade outside for a chance to enter and sign their names in a condolence book. It was the third day running that grief and patriotism led large crowds to assemble spontaneously in front of the palace, where they placed flowers, lighted votive candles or just stared at the building where Kaczynski had lived and worked.

Vatican publishes its abuse case procedures Rules call for bishops to alert civil authorities By Rachel Donadio New York Times News Service

ROME — Fending off accusations that it covered up abuse and obstructed justice, the Vatican on Monday spelled out for the first time that it now strongly urges bishops to report abuse cases to civil authorities if required by local law. Victims of abuse by priests have long argued that the Vatican’s rules requiring confidentiality and the avoidance of scandal were often tantamount to obstructing

civil justice, an argument that has contributed to the Catholic Church paying more than $2 billion in abuse settlements in the U.S. alone in the past decade. On Monday, the Vatican posted online for the first time a guide to the procedures it requires bishops to follow in abuse cases. It says that in the preliminary stages of any investigation, “civil law concerning reporting of crimes to the appropriate authorities should always be followed.” Although not all the guidelines

Olympic equestrian’s case calls attention to HIV laws Science and treatment have changed since the height of the AIDS epidemic, but in many states, the laws remain the same By Katie Thomas New York Times News Service

In Ocala, the heart of Florida’s horse country, the equestrian rider Darren Chiacchia is a boldface name. Chiacchia is an Olympic bronze medalist who gained national attention in 2008 when he was thrown from his horse in an accident that put him in a coma. In late January, however, Chiacchia made headlines of a different sort: He was arrested in Ocala, Fla., after a former sexual partner accused Chiacchia of exposing him to HIV, the virus that causes AIDS. Chiacchia, who pleaded not guilty in February, faces up to 30 years in prison under a Florida law passed in 1997 that makes it a felony for people with HIV to have sexual intercourse without informing their partners of their condition. His trial is scheduled to begin in June.

Outdated laws? Florida is one of at least 32 states nationwide that have criminal statutes specific to HIV, many of which date to the height of the AIDS epidemic in the 1980s and 1990s. As the science and treatment of HIV and AIDS have changed considerably in the ensuing decades, fear of infection has subsided. However, the laws remain on the books, and prosecutors continue to enforce them. In Pennsylvania and Louisiana, people with HIV can be sentenced to as much as 10 years in prison for spitting at or biting another person, even though scientists have long concluded that trans-

A former boyfriend has accused Olympian Darren Chiacchia, above, of exposing him to HIV. Chiacchia faces up to 30 years in prison under a Florida law that makes it a felony for people with HIV to have sex without informing their partners of their condition. mitting the virus through saliva is virtually impossible. In Missouri, people can be sentenced to life in prison if they infect others without their knowledge. Although many of the laws were created in the wake of highly publicized cases in which people exposed dozens of sexual partners, the statutes make little distinction between such extreme situations and more nuanced recent cases like Chiacchia’s, which involved a consensual relationship. Advocates for people with HIV and AIDS argue that criminal laws cause more harm in that they discourage people from being tested. But those who support the laws say they are necessary to punish people whose reckless behavior puts others at risk. “Failing to inform somebody can put their life at risk,” said Timothy McCourt, the assistant state attorney in Chiacchia’s case. “And I think in a real sense, you’re playing Russian roulette with another person’s life.”

Different views Chiacchia’s lawyer, Baron Coleman, said the law under which Chiacchia is being charged is unfair because criminal acts can be

prosecuted under more generic laws. “If you’re trying to kill somebody, there are statutes to protect against that,” Coleman said. James Subjack, a former district attorney in upstate New York, disagreed. Subjack was the prosecutor in the case of Nushawn Williams, accused in 1997 of infecting more than a dozen women with HIV. Subjack said the absence of such laws in New York hampered his prosecution of Williams, who pleaded guilty to four felonies. Without HIV-specific laws, Subjack said, “How would you convince a jury, for example, that when some guy is having random sex with somebody else, that it was his intent to kill them as opposed to have sex?” In an interview, Chiacchia disputed many of the details of the case and said it was “nothing more than a relationship gone bad.” He would not say whether he ever told his partner that he was HIV positive. But, he said, “Everyone close to me had this information,” and he later added, “I certainly never intended to put anyone in harm’s way.”

The Vatican is currently revising the norms for how bishops worldwide should handle sex abuse cases. Vatican officials say that they have been advising bishops to follow civil law in reporting abuse cases for some time — yet they acknowledge that those norms were often unevenly applied and not always clear.

W B Hate-crimes judge killed in Moscow

38 militants die in Pakistan gun battle

Judge Eduard Chuvashov was shot and killed in the stairwell of his Moscow apartment building Monday, in a killing the police said was probably connected to his work in hate-crimes cases. The killer, who used a silencer and wore a baseball cap, was caught on a surveillance camera. In February, Chuvashov handed down sentences ranging from six to 23 years to nine men charged with murdering dark-skinned people chosen at random. Last week, he reviewed sentences in the trial of a gang that preyed on migrant workers, upholding two 10-year sentences and increasing a third to 22 years from 20. Chuvashov, 47, had been threatened repeatedly but had refused bodyguards, saying he felt he was protected by the law, a police official told the Interfax news service.

ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — More than 100 Taliban militants attacked a checkpoint in a tribal region in northwest Pakistan on Monday, Pakistani military and security officials said, firing rockets and mortars before being repulsed in a long gun battle. The attack occurred in Orakzai, one of the seven restive tribal areas that straddle the Pakistan-Afghan border. A three-week Pakistani operation to flush out Taliban fighters has turned Orakzai into the latest center of clashes. Officials put the Taliban death toll at 38 and said two soldiers with Pakistan’s paramilitary Frontier Corps had been killed. Orakzai had become a sanctuary for insurgents routed by the army’s campaign in South Waziristan, notably Tehrik-iTaliban, an umbrella organization of militant groups.

N. Ireland leaders condemn bombing

Government to arrest ousted Kyrgyz leader

LONDON — Political leaders in Northern Ireland said Monday that an overnight bombing near Belfast outside a headquarters of Britain’s MI5 security service, resulting in minor injuries to one pedestrian, would not impede the peace process in the province. An IRA splinter group, the Real IRA, claimed responsibility for the bomb. The police said the bomb, placed inside an abandoned taxi, exploded outside the Palace Barracks at 12:24 a.m., as area homes were being evacuated after a warning that the explosion was imminent. The blast came less than 30 minutes after the deadline for the transfer of police and justice powers from the British government to the power-sharing government in Belfast, established three years ago after more than 30 years of violent struggle. The midnight timing of the transfer was set in an accord completed last month, hailed by its signatories at the time as the last major step in the peace process, which began with the 1998 Good Friday agreement.

BISHKEK, Kyrgyzstan — The provisional government that took power in Kyrgyzstan last week has drawn up plans to detain the country’s ousted president, a leader once close to the United States who fled a bloody riot in the capital to his ancestral homeland in the south of the country. The president, Kurmanbek Bakiyev, re-emerged in public from his compound in a southern village on Monday to hold a rally of about 500 people — and taunt the new leaders to try to arrest him. If they do, Bakiyev said, “there will be blood.” The announcement about the interim government’s arrest plan came in a news conference in the capital, Bishkek. Almazbek Atambayev, deputy head of the interim government, said that only concern for innocent bystanders was delaying the arrest. Bakiyev’s fate has been a source of tension since he fled the capital last week after riot police officers opened fire on antigovernment demonstrators, provoking a violent backlash. — From wire reports

BBB warns of e-mails The Better Business Bureau, which frequently warns businesses and consumers of potentially harmful scams, tricks and plots, sent out a somewhat awkward warning Monday: about itself. Well, sort of. E-mails from someone claiming to be the Better Business Bureau are being sent throughout the country, an effort the bureau thinks is an attempt to phish for private personal information. The bureau said the emails come from “seatac@bbb. org,” and have a subject line of “BBB Complaint...” followed by a case number and a reference number. The e-mail asks consumers to click on a link, which opens a now-defunct Web site. The bureau said it will never ask people to provide private information, nor will it refer to itself as Seatac BBB. The Better Business Bureau advises people not to click on any links or reply to the message, but to instead forward it to phishing@council.bbb. org. Then delete the message and run a virus scan, the BBB advises.

David Ford, the general manager of West Bend Property Co., says he jumped at the chance to develop NorthWest Crossing when he was hired in 2001. “It was an opportunity of a lifetime,” he said.

Developer has kept NorthWest Crossing healthy through recession The Bulletin

avid Ford is the general manager of West Bend Property Co., the developer of NorthWest Crossing, a planned community covering 483 acres on Bend’s west side that includes two schools, a commercial center, light industrial land and more than 550 residential lots. He’s held the position — one he calls “the opportunity of a lifetime” — since 2001, and hopes to be there through the project’s completion, which could still be “many years away,” he said. It’s exciting work, but not without its tribulations, Ford said. Like many builders and developers, the company was slammed hard by the recession. The company laid off employees and shut down its realty arm, preferring to outsource its sales. But because work on NorthWest Crossing began in 2001, by the time the housing slowdown hit in late 2006, Ford said much of the developer’s core vision was in place, including both schools, the commercial center and an expansive park shaded by mature Ponderosa pines in the center of the neighborhood. As a result, people have continued to buy and build homes in NorthWest Crossing, Ford said. To prove the point, he said 2009 was the company’s best year since 2006. See NorthWest / B5

Advertising Cultivating a market in India to enter the stream on Twitter By Claire Cain Miller

Note: Sales include those from stores open for at least one year. Reporting periods vary slightly. AP

Twitter will unveil a muchanticipated plan on Tuesday for making money from advertising, finally answering the question of how the microblogging service will turn its exponential growth into revenue. The advertisements, which Twitter calls “promoted tweets,” will show up when Twitter users search for keywords that the advertisers have bought in order to link to their ads. Later, Twitter plans to show promoted posts in the stream of Twitter posts, based on how relevant they might be to a particular user. See Twitter / B5

It was like a hidden passage on Wall Street, a secret channel that enabled billions of dollars to flow through Lehman Brothers. In the years before its collapse, Lehman used a small company — its “alter ego,” in the words of a former Lehman trader — to shift investments off its books and mask some of its risks. The firm, called Hudson Castle, played a crucial, behindthe-scenes role at Lehman, according to an internal Lehman document and interviews with former employees. The relationship raises new questions about the extent to which Lehman obscured its financial condition before it plunged into bankruptcy. While Hudson Castle appeared to be an independent business, it was deeply entwined with Lehman. For years, its board was controlled by Lehman, which owned a quarter of the firm. It was also stocked with former Lehman employees. None of this was disclosed by Lehman, however. Entities like Hudson Castle are part of a vast financial system that operates in the shadows of Wall Street, largely beyond the reach of banking regulators. These entities enable banks to exchange investments for cash to finance their operations and, at times, make their finances look stronger than they are. See Lehman / B5

Redmond restaurant Baba Chinese Cuisine moved last week into the former Soba Asian Bistro location in Redmond, which closed about three weeks ago, said Howie Long, co-owner of both restaurants. Long said he and co-owner Di Long closed the Redmond Soba location partially because of the down economy, but also because they wanted to move Baba away from its former location in downtown Redmond because of ongoing construction in the area. He said the construction was slowing business at Baba, so they made a “strategic decision” to move it to 2498 S. U.S. Highway 97 in Redmond. Long said he will keep the former Baba property on Southwest Sixth Street, which he owns, until the construction is complete to see if traffic picks up downtown. The Longs also own Soba restaurants in Bend and Salem, and multiple other restaurants in Central Oregon, including Szechuan Restaurant in Bend. They’re also involved with 5 Spice Fusion & Sushi in downtown Bend.

HAIDER NAGAR, India — At first glance, the vegetable patches in this north Indian village look no different from the many small, spare farms that dot the country. But up close, visitors can see some curious experiments: insect traps made with reusable plastic bags; bamboo poles helping bitter gourd grow bigger and straighter; and seedlings germinating from plastic trays under a fine net. These are low-tech innovations, to be sure. But they are crucial to the goals of the benefactor — Wal-Mart — that supplied them. Two years after Wal-Mart came to India, it is trying to do to agriculture here what it has done to industries around the world: change business models by using its hyper-efficient practices to improve productivity and speed the flow of goods. Not everyone is happy about the company’s presence here.

Keith Bedford / New York Times News Service

Farmers harvest cucumbers for Wal-Mart in Haider Nagar, in the Indian state of Punjab. Wal-Mart is trying to develop a hyper-efficient business model for India’s agriculture. Many Indian activists and policy makers abhor big-box retailing, fearing that it will drive India’s millions of shopkeepers out of business. Some legislators are suspicious of the company’s motives. The government still does not allow

Wal-Mart Stores and other foreign companies to sell directly to consumers. But Wal-Mart is persisting because its effort in India is critical to its global growth strategy. See India / B2

Even as the last major airline — Continental Airlines — is ending free economy-class meals on domestic flights this fall, carriers are changing their whole approach to food. Air Canada has introduced healthy food options, like vegetarian sandwiches and yogurt parfaits, and Alaska Airlines has a new healthy snack pack. American Airlines is working with Boston Market. JetBlue is about to start selling food on select long-haul flights. Some carriers are expected to offer combination meals and other promotions similar to those available at fast-food restaurants.

B B Bank profits dimmed by loan loss reserves Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo may have to set aside an additional $30 billion to cover possible losses on home-equity loans, an amount almost equal to analysts’ estimates of profit at the three banks this year. The cost of these reserves was calculated by CreditSights Inc., a New York-based research firm whose prediction almost four years ago proved prescient after banks reported unprecedented mortgage-related writedowns. Recognizing the home-equity loan losses is unfinished business from the housing bubble, CreditSights said in a March 29 report. Potential writedowns on the loans are casting a shadow over earnings, as analysts try to determine how much, and how quickly, loan-loss expenses will decline from the industrywide peak reached in June 2009. Banks led by New York-based JPMorgan begin reporting firstquarter results this week.

Greece’s aid terms may be Drugmakers’ databases ‘red herring’ amid recession ’more translucent than transparent,’ critics say By Jonathan Stearns Bloomberg News

BRUSSELS — Economists are cautioning that Greece’s rescue package from the European Union will do little to bolster economic growth even as it staves off the immediate risk of default. Euro-region finance ministers Sunday offered Greece as much as $41 billion in loans at a rate of around 5 percent as the government cuts wages and spending to tackle the EU’s largest budget deficit. Another $20 billion in aid would come from the International Monetary Fund. “The real issue will be whether Greece can regenerate

growth while cutting the fiscal deficit,” Erik Nielsen, Londonbased chief European economist at Goldman, said in an e-mailed note. “Without growth, the debt is only sustainable if someone will finance them at much less than 5 percent” for at least the next decade. “The exact interest rate charged on the bailout package is a bit of a red herring.” The Greek economy, which contracted 2 percent in 2009, risks being dragged down by government austerity measures that have already sparked a wave of protests in Athens. The economy could contract as much as 4 percent this year, the most in more than three de-

cades, Deutsche Bank AG estimates. Sunday’s EU aid offer was meant as a reward for the austerity efforts and as a tool to enable Greece to keep selling bonds on the market after Greek borrowing costs surged to an 11year high least week. “It may certainly reduce the possibility of default on a nearterm basis,” said Morgan Stanley Asia Chairman Stephen Roach in an interview on Bloomberg Radio on Monday. “But you have to ask yourself: how the heck is Greece going to do the massive fiscal adjustment they have supposedly agreed to in a short period of time when they get these funds?”

Growers face biggest wheat glut in 8 years The world will have so much wheat this year that U.S. farmers could leave every acre unplanted and still have a surplus, a sign of more losses after futures had their worst first quarter in 15 years. A 34 percent jump in the combined harvests of Australia and Russia over two years is creating the biggest wheat glut since 2002, even as American growers sow the fewest acres in 39 years and the U.S. Department of Agriculture raises its estimate of world output each month since June. Analysts surveyed by Bloomberg News expect an 8.6 percent price drop by July. U.S. farmers, the biggest exporters, will see their share of the world market plunge to 19 percent this year, the lowest in at least five decades, down from 29 percent in 2008, government data show.

Energy companies to merge in $1.6B deal Mirant Corp. and RRI Energy Inc. will combine their companies in a $1.6 billion stock transaction to form the second-largest independent U.S. power producer, the companies said Sunday. Shareholders of Atlanta-based Mirant will receive 2.835 shares of RRI common stock for each share of Mirant they own. Mirant’s shareholders will own about 54 percent of the new company’s equity, while RRI Energy shareholders will own about 46 percent, the companies said. The new company will be called GenOn Energy. It will have about 24,700 megawatts of electric-generating capacity and a market value of $3.1 billion, the companies said. — From wire reports

India Continued from B1 Confronted with saturated markets in the United States and other developed countries, the company needs to establish a bigger presence in emerging markets, like India, where modern stores make up just 5 percent of the country’s retail industry. Establishing good relations with farmers is a centerpiece of the company’s plans. Though Wal-Mart is pushing many of its traditional products in India, like clothes, electronics and home goods, perhaps none is as essential as food. Wal-Mart needs highquality produce at low prices to draw customers in volume. The challenges are significant. Buying and transporting produce are difficult tasks because India has millions of small-scale farmers and an agriculture system riddled with middlemen. Here in Haider Nagar, in the bread basket state of Punjab, farmers who supply vegetables to Wal-Mart say they like working with the company. It typically pays them 5 percent to 7 percent more than they earn from local wholesale markets, they said. And they do not have to pay to transport produce because Wal-Mart picks it up from their fields. Abdul Majid, who sells cucumbers to Wal-Mart, says his yields have risen about 25 percent since he started following farming advice about when to apply fertilizers and which kinds — more zinc, less potash — from the company and its partner, Bayer CropScience.

Pfizer recently became the latest big drug maker to start disclosing payments to doctors who act as consultants or speakers. But many followers of the pharmaceutical industry are still finding it far too difficult to follow the money. Industry bloggers and advocates for disclosure say the companies’ Web sites are not easy enough to use for patients or others who want to know which doctors are most financially entwined with drug makers. “More translucent than transparent,” is the way John Mack, editor of the Pharma Marketing blog sums up the databases. GlaxoSmithKline, Eli Lilly and Merck are among drug makers that now operate such databases, as a response to critics who say the payments can overly influence how doctors practice medicine and prescribe drugs. In some cases, as with Lilly and Pfizer, the databases were also set up as part of settlements of federal criminal inves-

tigations into illegal marketing of drugs to doctors. But those companies say they planned to start making the disclosures anyway. The money disclosed in such databases can be substantial. Pfizer, for instance, listed $35 million in payments to 4,500 doctors and 250 research organizations from June through December 2009. But it can be hard to add up the money for one doctor from several sources, identify the biggest recipients or list them all for a hospital or a city, without laborious work by a computer expert. Starting in 2013, under the new federal health care law, these databases will become mandatory for all drug companies and medical device makers. And they will be subject to stricter disclosure requirements aimed at making them much more transparent. Those new rules, under a subset of the health care law called the Physician Payment Sunshine Act, are also expected to make it easier for the public to track a doctor’s payments.

Ads on screens outside the home can reach larger audience than those on prime-time By Stephanie Clifford New York Times News Service

A new report from the measurement company Nielsen shows that ads on outside-thehouse video screens — in places like health clubs, gas stations and elevators — can reach many more people than ads on primetime television. The report, called the “Fourth Screen Network Audience Report,” (Nielsen is calling it the “fourth screen” after television, the computer and mobile), was released Monday. The company researched 10 screen networks, from companies like NCM Media Networks and Screenvision, which run ads in movie theaters, to Gas Station TV, which places

Mohammad Haneef, a farmer in a nearby village, said he had sold to two other companies before Wal-Mart, but one shut down and the other cheated him and paid him late. Wal-Mart is much better, he said, but its buyers are picky, taking the best vegetables and leaving him with inferior ones that he still must truck to wholesale markets. “You have to establish trust,” he said in Hindi. “Wal-Mart has been paying on time. We would just like them to buy more.” For Wal-Mart, establishing an agricultural beachhead in India will not be easy. Many Indian companies have abandoned or significantly scaled back efforts to run supermarkets. Some companies grew too quickly and flamed out. But many others were undone by the numerous Gordian knots that hold back Indian agriculture: laws limit who can buy farmers’ crops, 35 percent of fruits and vegetables are wasted because of inefficient transportation and farmers earn too little to invest in their marginal farms. “Anybody who says they can revolutionize retail in this country in a short period of time” is overestimating their abilities, said R. Gopalakrishnan, executive director of the Tata Group and chairman of Rallis India, a company that makes fertilizers, seeds and pesticides. Wal-Mart is also limited by New Delhi’s ban on foreignowned retail chains that prevent it from selling directly to Indian consumers. Right now Wal-Mart operates in India through a 50-50 joint venture with Bharti Enterprises, an Indian

screens on gas pumps. “If you took the 10 networks that we measured and put a spot on each of the 10” for a month, “you’d draw more exposures than having a spot on every one of the top 20 programs in prime time” in a given week, said Paul Lindstrom, senior vice president of the Nielsen Co. The screens are part of a phenomenon of place-based advertising that has gained popularity as consumers move away from traditional media. The networks try to capture people as they are about to buy something, or when they are bored and undistracted — waiting for a movie to start, for instance. The networks have been pushing Nielsen to create

conglomerate that also owns the country’s largest cell phone company. Their partnership, known as Bharti Wal-Mart, supplies retail stores that are fully owned by Bharti and runs a wholesale store that sells to shopkeepers, hotels and other businesses. Wal-Mart has spent the last two years building relationships with farmers and suppliers, and setting up its supply system. It is building a big distribution center outside New Delhi to supply Bharti stores, which are branded Easy Day, in and around the capital. Wal-Mart also has learned to adapt its operations to numerous challenges. For instance, because trucks move slowly on the country’s congested roads, WalMart’s fruit and vegetable distribution center near Haider Nagar supplies retail stores only within 200 kilometers (124 miles) to keep produce fresh. By comparison, similar Wal-Mart facilities in China supply stores as far away as 400 kilometers. But that means the company will have to set up more distribution centers with expensive power generators, making it more difficult to make money in India. Still, Jain, who previously worked for Whirlpool and Unilever, was optimistic. He said the company would add more farmers and stores in Punjab and neighboring Haryana State, then begin expanding further. This is “a controlled experiment,” he said. “It will take some time to make it sustainable and economically viable. Then once that happens, we need to take it to some other geographies and prove the model.”

a standard measurement so that they can better sell their ad time to agencies. “The agencies ask, ‘Why are you better, why should I take some money and not run it on traditional television or somewhere else, and run it with you?’” said David Leider, chief executive of Gas Station TV. “If there’s no legitimate measurement behind it, there’s no point for an agency or client to look at it.” “They were measured all differently by each of the venues, so there was no consistency in the marketplace and no thirdparty, independent view of it,” said Terrie Brennan, senior vice president for new business development at Nielsen.

T F Microsoft dives into hardware with social-networking phones By Dina Bass and Peter Burrows

Adobe Systems via The Associated Press

Bloomberg News

SAN FRANCISCO — Microsoft introduced a line of mobile phones Monday that are focused on social-networking features to win over teens and young adults who have flocked to devices from Apple and Google. Called Kin One and Kin Two, the phones will be made by Sharp Corp. and sold in the U.S. by Verizon Wireless starting in May, Microsoft said in a statement. Microsoft President Robbie Bach, who oversees the mobile-phone unit, demonstrated the phones Monday at an event in San Francisco. The phones represent a new strategy for Microsoft, which previously had only developed software for phone manufacturers, rather than getting deeply into hardware design itself. The move echoes Google’s decision to sell the Nexus One handset in addition to offering phone makers its Android operating system. “We said, ‘Look, there’s a segment here that we can really go after deeply,” Bach said Monday in an interview with Bloomberg Television. “And once you decide to go deep, you can’t go part way and say we’ll do the software and then we’ll hand it off to somebody else. You have to really be involved in the whole process.” The Kin phones will be available in Germany, Italy, Spain and Britain in the fall from Vodafone Group Plc.

Adobe Systems Inc. released Creative Suite 5, which updates popular software including Photoshop, Flash and Illustrator.

Two new phones made by Microsoft, the Kin One, left, and Kin Two, feature updates from social-networking sites such as Twitter, Facebook and MySpace and display them in one place on the phone’s main screen.

“This is an age group Microsoft has to court. They’re kind of losing this group to Apple and Google, and what they don’t want is to have all these late teens and early 20-somethings not growing up Microsoft.” — Kevin Burden, ABI Research analyst

The competition

Robbie Bach, president of entertainment and devices at Microsoft Corp., talks about the company’s two new phones at a news conference on Monday. Microsoft is trying to target a younger demographic with the new phones.

Microsoft may develop phone hardware for other segments of the market in the future, said Todd Peters, vice president in the company’s mobile communications marketing group. The risk in the strategy is that phone makers who view Microsoft and Google as partners see these moves as competition, making them less likely to want to use Microsoft’s or Google’s operating systems, ABI Research analyst Kevin Burden said. Bach said in January that it would be “very, very difficult” for Google to sell its own phone while keeping manufacturers and carriers for other Android handsets happy. Bach said Microsoft’s approach is different than Google’s, because Google sells the Nexus One itself, while Microsoft is relying on Verizon and Vodafone.

“They can get away with it because they’re not selling it themselves,” ABI’s Burden said of Microsoft. “It looks really different because they didn’t set up their own Web site store for it like Google.” The Kin phones include cameras, touch screens and slide-out keyboards for text messaging. The phone takes updates from social-networking sites such as Twitter, Facebook and MySpace and displays them in one place on the phone’s main screen, called the Kin Loop. Users can drag videos, photos, status updates, text messages and Web sites to one spot on the phone and then share the whole package of content with friends. Microsoft spokeswoman Melissa Havel declined to disclose pricing for the phones.

New generation Facing market share declines, Microsoft also is releasing a new version of its phone operating system for handset manufacturers to use later this year. Microsoft’s Windows dropped to a 7.9 percent share of the worldwide smartphone-software market in the fourth quarter from 12.5 percent a year earlier, while the iPhone and Android posted gains, according to ABI Research. The iPhone took 16.6 percent of the market in the fourth quarter, up from 10.8 percent the previous year, Oyster Bay, New Yorkbased ABI said. Android climbed to 8.5 percent from 1.7 percent.

Palm said to tap Goldman, Quattrone to find a buyer By Serena Saitto and Ari Levy Bloomberg News

Palm Inc., creator of the Pre smartphone, is seeking bids for the company as early as this week, according to three people familiar with the situation. The company is working with Goldman Sachs Group and Frank Quattrone’s Qatalyst Partners to find a buyer, said the people, who declined to be identified because a sale hasn’t been announced. Taiwan’s HTC Corp. and China’s Lenovo Group Ltd. have looked at the company and may make offers, the people said. Palm, which helped pioneer the market for personal digital assistants, would offer suitors the WebOS software that competes against mobile operating systems from iPhone maker Apple and Google. For Elevation Partners, the firm that owns about 30 percent of Palm, a sale may end the volatility of an investment in a stock that surged more than 10fold since December 2008 before erasing most of the gain. “Palm still has quite a good brand in the U.S. market, and some strong technology, so you can do something with it,” said Frank He, a technology analyst at BOC International Holdings in Hong Kong. “The shares have gone down a lot and the company may become attractive to anyone looking for a turnaround play.”

The Sunnyvale, Calif.-based device maker surged 32 percent last week on the Nasdaq Stock Market on renewed speculation of a takeover bid. Before the rally, the stock had plunged more than 60 percent this year, dragged down by disappointing sales of the Pre and Pixi phones. Chief Financial Officer Doug Jeffries last month forecast sales in the quarter ending in May will be less than $150 million, compared with the $300 million average of analysts’ estimates compiled by Bloomberg at the time. Palm, which has a market value of $870.8 million, ranked sixth in the North American smartphone market during the three months ended Dec. 31 with a 4.3 percent share, according to Gartner Inc. Research in Motion Ltd., maker of the BlackBerry, led with 44 percent, followed by Apple’s 24 percent, according to the Stamford, Conn.-based research company. Chief Executive Officer Jon Rubinstein, who developed Palm’s latest operating system, was counting on the Pre and Pixi smartphones to attract customers. The company has patents from mobile hardware to software and power-saving technologies. Lynn Fox, a Palm spokeswoman, declined to comment. Qatalyst’s Sally Palmer and Goldman Sach’s Andrea Rachman didn’t immediately respond to requests

for comment. Chen Hui-Ming, the chief financial officer of HTC, declined to confirm or deny the company’s interest in Palm. Wong Wai Ming, Lenovo’s chief financial officer, also declined to comment on the company’s acquisition plans. In January, Lenovo paid $200 million to purchase Lenovo Mobile Communication Technology Ltd., letting it re-enter the market for handsets. The company had sold the mobile-phone unit in 2008 to focus on personal computers. Palm shares have been buoyed in the past on speculation the company would be bought by Nokia. The Finnish company Monday declined to say if it might be interested. Dell Inc. looked at Palm, though it decided against an offer, according to two of the people familiar with the matter. Jess Blackburn, a spokesman for the Round Rock, Texas-based computer maker, didn’t respond to a call for comment. Unlisted Huawei Technologies Co. and ZTE Corp., China’s two biggest makers of phone equipment, may be more likely bidders for Palm than HTC or Lenovo, said Lu Chia-lin, a technology analyst at Macquarie Group Ltd. in Taipei. Chinese companies “have been quite eager to expand their international markets,” said Lu.

for texting and Web access, seeking to expand their fastest-growing revenue stream. Sales of data plans at Verizon Wireless rose 46 percent in the fourth quarter, contributing almost a third of the company’s wireless-service revenue. Microsoft and Verizon Wireless kept the Kin’s target demographic group in mind at Monday’s event, held at a San Francisco club called Mighty. A rusty truck stood outside selling sugar waffles. Inside, baristas hired from a local cafe served up Ethiopian and Brazilian coffee while photos of denim- and flannel-clad young people flashed on screens around the room. “This is an age group Microsoft has to court,” ABI’s Burden said. “They’re kind of losing this group to Apple and Google, and what they don’t want is to have all these late teens and early 20-somethings not growing up Microsoft.”

SAN FRANCISCO — Adobe Systems Chief Executive Officer Shantanu Narayen released an overhaul of the company’s most profitable product Monday, bolstering defenses against mounting criticism by Apple of his flagship Flash software. Narayen announced a new version of Adobe’s Creative Suite, five groupings of as many as 15 programs that rely on Flash to create Web video and make sites more interactive. His engineers spent 18 months updating the applications, which make up $1.7 billion, or about 60 percent of Adobe’s sales. Getting Creative Suite right is crucial as Apple CEO Steve Jobs faults Flash as “too slow” and bars it from his company’s mobile devices. Apple’s efforts to persuade programmers to adopt other ways to get video to work on Web sites threatens Flash’s dominance and has left Adobe on the defensive. “Adobe can’t be complacent against someone as charismatic as Steve Jobs,” said Andrea “Andy” Cunningham, president of CXO Communication in Palo Alto, Calif., who helped create Apple’s Macintosh public relations campaign in 1984. “They need to define Flash as the Kleenex of video media. The battle is theirs to lose, and if they do, it will be a real shame.” Countering Apple’s criticism of Flash — and by extension the Creative Suite programs that use it — may be a tall order for Adobe, the No. 1 maker of graphics software. The San Jose, Calif.-based company is fighting for the hearts of Web site developers, many of whom view Apple’s iPhone, iPod Touch and newly released iPad tablet as platforms they can’t ignore.

Apple’s disdain for Flash has become more marked recently. Video and graphics created with Flash won’t work on the iPad, a tablet-style computer that went on sale in April, or on the iPhone, Apple’s smart phone introduced in 2007. Last week, as Jobs showcased the latest version of the iPhone’s operating system at Apple headquarters in Cupertino, Calif., he praised an emerging rival standard called HTML5. Part of his presentation included video promoting the Disney movie “Toy Story 3.” “All this video is HTML5, which is really easy to do,” he said. During an Apple shareholder meeting in March 2008, Jobs called Flash “too slow to be useful” on mobile devices. Adobe’s Narayen said he is unconcerned by Apple’s recommendation that video producers use HTML5. Adobe is adept at vying with companies such as Microsoft Corp., he said. “This is not new for Adobe, in terms of competing against large companies that bring to bear different, competing tactics,” Narayen said last week in an interview. “We have competed with Microsoft in the past. We’ve competed with Apple in the past. As long as we’ve driven innovation, we’ve demonstrated we can be successful.” Peaceful coexistence may prove Adobe’s best defense, CXO’s Cunningham said. “Adobe should talk every day about the widespread use of Flash, because that’s how you fight the battle against someone like Steve Jobs,” she said. “They have numbers on their side. And if there are any issues at all — about quality or security — they have to be on it to fix it. Because the minute there are cracks in their seam, Apple can jump in.”

Continued from B1 “We were fortunate to get enough critical mass built that people could see what we’re advertising … so we refocused our marketing on activities and events to bring people in to see what’s here and I believe that’s been one of the keys to our success in this down market,” Ford said. Ford grew up in Southern California and moved to Bend in 1991. Then a recent graduate of the University of Denver, where he earned a master’s degree in real estate and construction management, Ford had taken a job with Heery International, the giant Atlanta-based construction firm that had inked a development deal with the Bend-La Pine school district. For 10 years, Ford was Heery’s man on the ground in Bend, where he helped the firm build several schools for the district. His last two projects were High Lakes Elementary and Summit High schools, built on 15 acres and 48 acres, respectively, that were part of a larger tract of 483 acres owned by longtime Bend businessman Bill Miller, of the Miller Lumber Co. family. As Ford explains, Miller’s land had been home to a pumice mine and then a tree farm. In later years, Miller began entertaining offers from developers, including two of Bend’s most prominent, who wanted to buy it. One was Mike Hollern, CEO of Brooks Resources Corp. The other was Mike Tennant, owner of Tennant Development. Ford said Miller was friends with both and didn’t want to choose one over the other. Miller suggested a partnership, and West Bend Property Co. was

born, controlled equally by Brooks Resources and Tennant Development. West Bend Property Co. purchased the land in 1999. Miller had already donated the 15 acres for High Lakes to the district. He also had pledged 48 acres to the district for a future high school, Ford said. So, as a condition of the sale to West Bend Property Co., Miller required the company to sell 48 acres to the district. High Lakes opened in 2000, and was the first project to be completed. As part of its development, West Bend Property Co. paved Mt. Washington Drive between Skyliners and Shevlin Park roads. In 2001, as work on Summit High was nearing completion, Ford gave Hollern and Brooks Resources’ President Kirk Schueler a tour of the school. Afterward, the two invited Ford to lunch at the Awbrey Glen Restaurant, where they offered Ford the general manager position at West Bend Property Co. Ford jumped at the chance, he said. “I had known those guys for 10 years already and I had the utmost respect for both developers, so for me, it was an opportunity of a lifetime,” Ford said. Residential development also began in 2001. West Bend Prop-

Lehman

at a hearing in May that will focus on Lehman and Bear Stearns, according to two people familiar with the panel’s plans. Most of these deals are legal. But certain Lehman transactions crossed the line, according to the account of the bank’s demise prepared by an examiner of the bank. Hudson Castle was not mentioned in that report, released last month, which concluded that some of Lehman’s bookkeeping was “materially misleading.” The report did not say that Hudson was involved in the misleading accounting. At several points, Lehman did transactions greater than $1 billion with Hudson vehicles, but it is unclear how much money was involved since 2001. Still, accounting experts say the shadow financial system needs some sunlight.

Continued from B1 Critics say that such deals helped Lehman and other banks mask their exposure to the risky investments tied to subprime mortgages and commercial real estate. Even now, a year and a half after Lehman’s collapse, major banks still undertake such transactions with businesses whose names, like Hudson Castle’s, are rarely mentioned outside of footnotes in financial statements, if at all. The Securities and Exchange Commission is examining various creative borrowing tactics used by some 20 financial companies. A congressional panel investigating the financial crisis also plans to examine such deals

erty Co., as the master developer, builds roads and lays out the development’s lots in phases. The first phase included the sales center, at the corner of Mount Washington and Northwest Crossing drives, and 62 residential lots, the first of which sold in spring 2002, Ford said. A total of 23 phases have been planned, and work is now under way on phase 14, which borders Mount Washington Drive. Initially, lots were sold exclusively to select builders who would build spec homes to sell to future residents. In 2005, demand was so great, Ford said the company’s board of directors, which includes Hollern and Tennant, asked Ford to draw up an aggressive development schedule that would complete development by summer 2009. The aggressive schedule was never implemented. Shortly after Ford presented it, the board sensed the market had bubbled and pulled back, he said. “We saw (the market) wasn’t sustainable, but unfortunately, we didn’t see the depth of the correction,” Ford said. “Fortunately, we didn’t have a huge inventory of developed lots going into the recession and it was more manageable for us.” As the downturn turned toward recession, the company made adjustments. Ford’s support staff of six was cut to two, and more were laid off when the company shuttered its realty office in 2008, preferring to outsource sales. Additionally, the company opened lot sales to the public, allowing people to purchase lots and choose their own builder, though architectural guidelines still must be satisfied. The company also strung out its timeline. The city requires West

Bend Property Co. to develop one phase per year, but the company is petitioning the city to carve new phases out of existing undeveloped ones in order to make them slightly smaller. Still, Ford believes the development, once the new phasing is approved, will be completed in four to five years. That does not count the land the company owns on the west side of Mount Washington Drive north of Northwest Crossing Drive, where more homes and a park, complete with a lagoon, are slated. Ford said the company plans to develop all of its holdings east of Mount Washington Drive before it finalizes work on its last section, which he estimates is still five to six years away from beginning. The Bulletin asked Ford a few more questions about West Bend Property Co. in his office overlooking the development’s commercial center last week:

Q: A:

How have home prices changed with the recession? At the peak, prices were between roughly $500,000 and $600,000. The last few sales have been between $320,000 and $390,000.

Q: A:

How has the development changed with the recession? (In the development’s early years), we saw lots of young families, but we’ve seen a shift to empty-nesters, so the homes they want are smaller, single-level homes, but with nice finishes.

Q: A:

You said 2009 was better than 2006. Did the government’s tax credit incentives help? It was the sum of the parts. (The tax credit) incentives helped, as did low interest rates,

Airlines

the ground, most hungry travelers seem to be bringing food on board. A survey conducted by Forrester Research in the fourth quarter of 2009 found that 19 percent of leisure travelers and 21 percent of business travelers bought a meal or snack on a plane in the previous year. If a free in-flight meal was not offered, only 6 percent of travelers polled in Zagat Survey’s 2009 airlines poll said they typically purchased food on-board, but 56 percent said they bought it in the airport. Indeed, in-flight food sales are not huge money-makers for the airlines. Tom Douramakos, chief executive of GuestLogixa company based in Toronto that makes the hand-held devices

Continued from B1 The new offerings are in large part the result of the new economics of in-flight food. Kevin Jackson, managing director of consumer marketing for US Airways, said that when airlines gave away food, “the motivation was to minimize cost.” Now that most airlines are selling food, they have an incentive, he said, to “provide better choice and quality for passengers.” In addition, the airlines are competing with new restaurants and take-out food businesses in the airports. With many more options on

but probably also the board’s wisdom in lowering lot prices, not to where the market was, but to where they projected the market would go. And there were other buyer incentives to help stimulate sales, such as discounts if they used our guild builders, which also helped the builders secure work. In all honesty, we’re surprised the spec market is as viable as it’s turned out to be.

Q: A:

How has the commercial center fared? Has it been successful? It has. That’s not to say the tenants haven’t been challenged. We’ve had to reduce rents. We recognize for us to be successful, they have to be successful.

Q: A:

The commercial center is a critical part of the equation? Yes. I believe if we hadn’t developed the (commercial) center, our lot sales probably wouldn’t have been as great because it would be impossible for people to see our vision.

Q: A:

What about the recession has changed the company and the industry? It will result in developers and builders being more conservative in how they pursue their business, as it’s highlighted the fact this business has tremendous risks that people forgot about. And for those of us that have survived, it certainly will influence our future decisions. We’ll want to go forward only when we have confidence what we’re doing is sustainable. A number of builders got highly leveraged, and we’ve been fortunate to be 100 percent equity financed. Andrew Moore can be reached at 541-617-7820 or amoore@bendbulletin.com.

and software used by most North American carriers for in-flight sales, said carriers generated a net profit of only 5 or 10 cents on a $10 sale of inflight food. Douramakos predicted that GuestLogix’s technology would allow airlines to offer more combination meals, including a drink, snack and sandwich or salad, an option now available on Air Canada. He said he expected carriers to distribute coupons with food or drinks bought in-flight, good for discounts on future purchases, and also to deeply discount items that remained unsold as a flight progressed. The technology, he added, will allow airlines to operate more like restaurateurs.

Twitter Continued from B1 Several companies will run ads, including Best Buy, Virgin America, Starbucks and Bravo. “The idea behind promoted tweets is that we want to enhance the communications that companies are already having with customers on Twitter,” said Dick Costolo, Twitter’s chief operating officer. Since Twitter started in 2007, its growth has resembled a hockey stick, increasing almost in a vertical line. According to comScore, Twitter.com had 22.3 million unique visitors in March, up from 524,000 a year ago, and that does not include the millions more who use the service through thirdparty smartphone and Web applications like TweetDeck or Tweetie. Yet Twitter has been slow to monetize those users. Though Twitter already has some revenue from deals to license its stream of posts to Google, Microsoft and Yahoo, Twitter’s announcement is the first significant step toward a business model. The ads will let businesses insert themselves in the stream of real-time conversation on Twitter to ensure their posts do not get buried in the flow of tweets. Starbucks, for instance, often publishes Twitter posts about its promotions, like free pastries. But the messages quickly get lost in the thousands of posts from users who, for instance, happen to mention meeting at Starbucks. “When people are searching on Starbucks, what we really want to show them is that something is happening at Starbucks right now, and promoted tweets will give us a chance to do that,” said Chris Bruzzo, vice president of brand, content and online at Starbucks. When a Twitter user searches for a word an advertiser bought, the promoted message will show up at the top of the results, even if it was written much earlier. The posts say they are promoted by the company in small type, and when someone rolls over a promoted post with a cursor, it turns yellow. In the next phase of Twitter’s revenue plan, it will show promoted posts in a user’s Twitter stream, even if a user did not perform a search and does not follow the advertiser. For example, if someone has been writing posts about the Fourth of July, they could see a promoted post from Virgin advertising holiday fare discounts.

Economic committee waits on declaring end to recession By Sewell Chan and Louise Story New York Times News Service

For the record, this recession isn’t over yet. A committee of economists, charged with determining the beginnings and ends of recessions, confirmed Monday that it could not yet declare an end to the recession that began in December 2007. “Although most indicators have turned up, the committee decided that the determination of the trough date on the basis of current data would be premature,” the group at the National Bureau of Economic Research said in a statement. Such an acknowledgment is rare in the history of setting dates to business cycles and could affect the behavior of investors and consumers. Despite a recent uptick in employment and income, the decision of the committee at a meeting last week — details of which were completed over the weekend — reflects a lingering worry that the economy could turn downward again in a so-called double-dip recession. Several economists on the committee, which has seven active members, said they considered such a turn to be unlikely. But, they said, the duration and severity of the contraction have made it hard to determine with authority that a recovery has begun. “Many indicators are quite preliminary at this time and will be revised in coming months,” the committee statement said. A number of private economists have said they believe the recession ended in June or July last year.

The gross domestic product, the broadest measure of economic activity, officially began rising in the second half of 2009, suggesting that a recovery might have quietly started. But the committee takes other factors into consideration, like employment trends and consumer confidence. The two previous recessions, in 1990-91 and in 2001, each

lasted eight months and were mild enough that the committee felt confident in pronouncing them over in a year or less. As it was, the current recession was 11 months old before the committee announced its start date. There is no formula for defining a recession, even though it is often casually described as two consecutive quarters of economic contraction.

WASHINGTON — The Deschutes National Forest is in the running for a multi-million-dollar grant aimed at reducing fire danger and improving forest health over a huge swath of land, a U.S. Forest Service official said Monday. The forest agency’s proposal is one of only four or five in Oregon and Washington to advance to the final round of grants in Washington, D.C. If chosen, Deschutes would be one of about 10 nationwide funded in the first round of the new Collaborative Forest Landscape Restoration Program, said Tom DeMeo, regional ecologist for the Forest Service in Oregon and Washington.

Teacher job fair turnout lower than last year By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin

Last year, hundreds of teachers from around the United States descended on the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center in the hopes of snagging one of the very few jobs being advertised at a Central Oregon teacher recruitment fair. This year, the fair was smaller and fewer teachers showed up. But the employment situation looks nearly as bleak, with few area schools hiring any new positions and most simply replacing retired teachers or those going on leave. The job fair, which started 11 years ago, began as a recruiting opportunity for Bend-La Pine Schools, then gradually grew to include representatives from Sisters, Redmond, Crook County and Culver school districts. And some years, even school districts from far-flung places like John Day and Lakeview would show up to grab some teachers. But because of hiring freezes and budget cuts at all area school districts, the job fair shrunk in 2009 to include just Bend-La Pine and Jefferson County school districts, as well as a booth for High Desert Education Service District.

Taking photos of family events is a simple way to document history. Access is unlimited, and the work is intimate and deeply important. Family members are also perfect people to practice on, to experiment and hone your skills. If family can’t forgive your flubs, head scratching and requests for “one more,” who will? Family photography is also the perfect setting to take on the ultimate photographic challenge, the group photo. Celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz has raised the bar on group photos over the last decade for Vanity Fair magazine. The group photo is often

feared because the many subjects’ attention to the photographer, facial expressions, even just the act of blinking, ruins the picture. Leibovitz takes several celebrities and photographs them as if each is posing for an individual portrait, when in fact it’s a group photo. Getting your family together provides that same opportunity. Take the reins at a family event, find a location that has even lighting and is clear enough to fit everyone, and make several photos, trying to avoid the odd blinking, expressions and body language that come when everyone is so close together.

Once you’ve got everyone in place, have someone else snap the photo or use the countdown timer on the camera so you can be in the shot. Have the camera on a tripod or suitable surface — I’ve even used a couple of books on a table before. Also look for candid moments before and after the group photo, using your camera’s Sports setting to capture the activities and children at the event. For more intimate photos, think of nontraditional locations and times when you’ll be the only one to record the event, such as in a family birthing room. These photos can be emotional and cannot be replaced.

Five decades ago, the developers of Deschutes River Recreational Homesites had a problem: wetlands filled the center of their development near the Deschutes River, and the waterlogged land was unappealing to potential buyers. So the developers dug ditches to drain the wetlands, and sold the lots south of Sunriver as developable land. Fifty years later, two residents in the neighborhood have come up with a plan to protect the remaining wetlands from development and get compensation for the people who own that land. Much of the grassy marshland that runs through the middle of the subdivision is still undeveloped. David Ogden and Jerry Hubbard want to use land swaps and purchases to set aside wetlands in the neighborhood as a conservation area. They hope Deschutes County will exchange buildable lots it owns in the area for property in the wetlands, where development options are limited. “Now, they just find themselves holding property within the wetlands with little they can do with it,” Ogden said of these property owners. “It’s just a sense of trying to be fair with coming up with a solution.” On Wednesday, Ogden and Hubbard will get their chance to pitch the idea to the Deschutes County Commission during an afternoon meeting.

Census got you stumped? There’s help Photos by Rob Kerr / The Bulletin

Capturing emotion and documenting the generations are the highlights of family photography to me. My nephew, Henry Bjork, hugs his great-grandmother in what is likely her last visit to Oregon from her home in Massachusetts several years ago. My sister, Allison Bjork, holds her youngest son, George. Whether or not Henry will be able to remember the moment when he is older might very well rely on the photograph I made. This picture also documents a change in times, as more and more seniors are living to see and enjoy their great-grandchildren.

In this low-light photo, I show my relative, Megan Wick, as she presents her husband, Jason, his surprise 40th birthday cake. Often fast-moving and in low light, family event photography is rich with opportunity and forgiving of failure. I made this photo with a Canon 20D DSLR camera set on aperture priority, incandescent white balance, 24mm lens, 1000 ISO, 1/60 at f/2.0.

Family event photography encompasses more than just large gatherings. Here, I captured an intimate moment of my newborn daughter, Ella, and her older brother, my son, Rory, as a nurse pulls Ella from her first bath the morning after her birth. Decades ago, access to make a photo of this kind was impossible. Now it is more welcome. I made this photo with a Canon 20D DSLR camera set on aperture priority, 24mm lens, 400 ISO, 1/125 at f/5.6.

Equipment corner FOR BEGINNERS AND INTERMEDIATES Set your camera to the Program setting. Turn off the red-eye feature because the multiple pre-flashes confuse people about when the actual photo is being taken. Instead, use any postprocessing options available for correcting red eye. If photographing action, such as dancing or fast-moving children, use the camera’s Sports setting. If you’re going to photograph

a group of people in a dark space, you’ll have to plan ahead. A group will only gather for a limited amount of time, so preparation is critical. Point all available lamps toward where the photo will be made. Ask several people to stand in the lighted spot and take test photos. Adjust your camera until you find the right setting.

Here’s the lineup

FOR ADVANCED PHOTOGRAPHERS Use off-camera flashes to light several rows of people evenly. Outdoors, photograph in the shade to keep people from harsh shadows and to reduce their squinting and blinking. Use a setting with more depth of field so the front and back row of people are in focus. Use a shallow depth of field to simplify moments. A 24-70/2.8 zoom is an excellent range lens for capturing history-making pictures at family events.

Each installment will feature tips from The Bulletin’s photographers, followed the next week by the best of readers’ submitted photos.

Residents seeking to preserve wetlands By Hillary Borrud

My wife made this photo of the Kerr family gathered last summer in Wilsonville. An aunt suggested that standing under one of the largest trees on the family property would be symbolic. Keeping all of the expressions in a group photo under control can be one of the toughest challenges. This was made with my Canon 5D Mark II DSLR camera, 50mm lens, 100 ISO, 1/60 at f/5.6.

The grant, which pays for restoration projects of more than 50,000 acres for up to 10 years, would allow for forest health work on a huge scale, said Phil Chang, a program manager at the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council. “You pick a 60,000- to 80,000or 100,000-acre landscape and put a few million dollars to work and you can really make a difference,” said Chang, who helped author the Deschutes National Forest’s proposal.

ON THIS DATE In 1598, King Henry IV of France endorsed the Edict of Nantes, which granted rights to the Protestant Huguenots. The edict was abrogated in 1685 by King Louis XIV, who declared France entirely Catholic again. In 1742, Handelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Messiahâ&#x20AC;? was first performed publicly, in Dublin, Ireland. In 1860, the Pony Express completed its inaugural run from St. Joseph, Mo., to Sacramento, Calif., in 10 days. In 1943, President Franklin D. Roosevelt dedicated the Jefferson Memorial. In 1960, the U.S. Navyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Transit 1B navigational satellite was successfully launched into orbit. In 1970, Apollo 13, four-fifths of the way to the moon, was crippled when a tank containing liquid oxygen burst. The astronauts managed to return safely. In 1986, Pope John Paul II visited the Great Synagogue of Rome in the first recorded papal visit to a Jewish house of worship.

O OREGON STATE TREASURER

Investment firms pampering officials Officers are offered meals, hotels, limos By Les Zaitz and Ted Sickinger The Oregonian

PORTLAND — A limousine was waiting for John Hershey, an Oregon state investment officer, when he flew into New York for a meeting just before Thanksgiving. So was a $495-a-night room at The Pierre Hotel, which purrs online that “even in a city where exclusive luxuries are the norm, there is one hotel that is far more rare and special.” Following an afternoon meeting, Hershey was offered cocktails and dinner at Guastavino’s, which boasts “the highest staffto-guest ratio in the city.” Hershey was in town to monitor an investment firm, and it picked up his tab for the flight, the limo, two nights at The Pierre and dinner. That wasn’t a rare occurrence among the 13 employees at the Oregon State Treasurer’s office responsible for watching over $67 billion in state investments. An investigation by The Oregonian found that the Treasury officers, paid on average just shy of $200,000 last year, are treated to a life of luxury by investment firms they oversee. Their records show stays at resorts, first-class airfare, golf, cocktails and highend dinners — all in the name of public service. As the newspaper pressed its investigation last week, newly installed Treasurer Ted Wheeler put an end to some long-standing practices and ordered a complete review of travel protocols. “I am taking a fresh look at all of the Treasury’s travel policies,” Wheeler said. “I will make improvements where needed and I will keep the public informed.” Wheeler would not, however, require his investment officers to answer detailed questions about their trips.

The front line? Oregon’s investment officers are the state’s front-line professionals in keeping tabs on the money managers who handle public dollars from pension, workers compensation and school funds. What The Oregonian discovered is a cozy relationship between the watchers and the watched. The cost of that coziness is a secret. The state and investment firms say what the firms spend to fly and feed state officers is none of the public’s business. Treasury officials even refused to turn over public records — agendas for meetings involving state officials — until they were given permission by the private investment firms. Treasury officials acknowledge they have no record of what travel benefits state employees receive from the firms. They don’t seek an accounting, either from state employees or the firms. That poses questions about conflicts of interest, and whether clubby relationships dull officers’ oversight of the firms. Public investors such as Oregon are lucrative customers. Besides the cash to invest, investment firms collect huge fees for their day-to-day work. Oregon’s pension system alone paid $335 million in investment fees and expenses last year. In initial interviews, Treasury officials dismissed concerns about the agency’s travel. Ron Schmitz, Treasury’s chief investment officer, said his team’s performance is what counts — not whether someone got a fancy meal in Miami. “Our performance is stellar,” said Schmitz. “If we were doing a lot of things like hiring general partners just because they have their annual meeting at a nice resort ... it would show up in the numbers and it doesn’t. Our numbers are phenomenal.”

“We are hopeful that any newspaper coverage will describe how diligently the Treasury is working on behalf of Oregonians, the dedication to due diligence and ongoing education about investment strategies.” — Darren Bond, deputy treasurer Oregon State Treasurer’s office Schmitz is adamant the travel is ordinary in the investment world and doesn’t unduly influence the state’s officers. Interviewed before Wheeler announced new restrictions, Schmitz said state officers get the same travel treatment as other investors. Trade magazines and industry associations do laud Oregon’s public-investment performance as best in class. Returns from the pension fund’s investments in private partnerships, in particular, have been strong over time.

Making money is the mission “We are hopeful that any newspaper coverage will describe how diligently the Treasury is working on behalf of Oregonians, the dedication to due diligence and ongoing education about investment strategies,” wrote Deputy State Treasurer Darren Bond last month. Making money is the mission of the state treasurer’s Investment Division. The concept is much like an individual investor figuring out how to put spare cash to work in profitable ways. Except Oregon has billions in cash. Profits from investments cover state retiree pensions and care for Oregon’s injured and disabled workers. Directed by a governor-appointed council and working with consultants, Treasury investment officers spread $67 billion in a bewildering array of investments. The state owns stocks, bonds and real estate. Through partnerships, Oregon is invested in everything from tiny startup companies to distressed real estate loans and corporate buyout efforts. Oregon pioneered the use of pension money in private investment funds in 1981. That long history, and the state’s continuing appetite for high-yield deals, has built relationships that get Oregon in on the ground floor of sometimes promising investments. The key to those opportunities is the private investment fund managers. Managers form and run the partnerships that use state money. They typically earn 20 percent of the profits if deals go well. Meantime, they earn their fees. State investment officers traveled 500,000 miles in 2009 to keep an eye on how those managers are performing. Generally included in the trips are annual visits to each manager’s headquarters. Treasury typically pays for airfare and lodging. And firms often host meals for visiting state officers, though Oregon keeps no record of such perks. Investment officers also travel to special investor-only meetings related to partnerships. Last year, Treasury officials attended 73 meetings in person.

Picking up the tab Investment firms hosting those meetings usually pick up the bulk of the travel costs. They

also can act as travel agents for the state’s officers. And they don’t stick their guests in a Motel 6. All state employees are restricted in accepting luxury travel from outside entities. Treasury officials concede they are subject to that restriction, but that doesn’t appear to cramp investment officers’ style. A review of travel records for more than 100 trips in 2009 shows that Oregon’s investment officers routinely stay at firstclass hotels, eat at celebrated restaurants and enjoy free entertainment — all while on duty. In April 2009, Jay Fewel, a senior investment officer, flew to California and checked into The Lodge at Pebble Beach, considered one of the country’s top golf resorts.

Horseback riding and pottery workshops Investment manager Leonard Green & Partners put together a three-day schedule that included one evening meeting, then business sessions on two following mornings that lasted six hours total. Those sessions were bookended by a slate of activities including tennis, a horse ride on the beach, pottery workshops, shopping in the community of Carmel and golf at the famed Pebble Beach Golf Links, where a single round costs $495. One day ended with a reception and dinner at The Beach and Tennis Club. Leonard Green, which has persuaded Oregon to commit $360 million to a series of its funds since 1999, covered the costs. Fewel did not respond to questions about the trip. Schmitz said Treasury doesn’t choose meeting locations, what class to fly or where to lodge investment officers when they are attending annual or advisory board meetings. Investment managers do, and Oregon employees only take what’s offered to everybody else. “We consider none of it luxurious,” Schmitz said. “It’s necessary normal business practice.” A lid of secrecy is bolted over all that travel, however. None of the 31 investment funds contacted by The Oregonian would disclose what it spends on Oregon’s state workers. Senior Treasury officials declined The Oregonian’s request to permit the funds to release the expense information. They said such information is confidential by contract with the investment firms.

Scientists don’t like NOAA salmon plan By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press

GRANTS PASS — An independent panel of scientists does not like the Obama administration’s plan to rely on barges, rather than spilling water over dams, to carry young salmon making their spring migration

down the Snake River in Eastern Washington. Their review of the NOAA Fisheries Service plan to rely exclusively on barges due to low water conditions says the best course is still a mix of carrying fish in barges and spilling water. The question is important

as a federal judge continues to control federal dam operations in the Columbia Basin. Spilling water for fish means less water for generating electricity. NOAA Fisheries had no comment, but salmon advocates suing the agency over dam operations applauded the review.

O B Eugene compiling student race data EUGENE — The Eugene School District is embarking this week on a potentially difficult and sensitive effort to identify the race and ethnicity of its 16,500 students. The Eugene Register-Guard is reporting that the district is complying with a change in federal rules that take effect next year. The federal government now requires that districts determine race and ethnicity in their schools. That data used to be voluntary. The federal mandate requires that a student’s demographical data be counted, even if the parent refuses to divulge the information. The district is in the process of mailing letters to parents explaining the changes.

Salmon panel set PORTLAND — A federal council meeting this week in Portland will decide where and how many salmon will be caught this year on the West Coast. The Pacific Fishery Manage-

ment Council was expected to choose one of three proposals to manage salmon fisheries in Washington, Oregon and California when it met Monday. Experts will make adjustments to the plan and it should receive final approval on Thursday. Fishermen in Oregon and Washington could have a full season from May to September. California probably will have a chinook salmon season after two closed years because of low returns.

2 dead in car crash PORTLAND — The Clark County Sheriff’s department says two people died after veering off a gravel road and crashing into a swampy ditch at the Ridgefield National Wildlife Refuge on Sunday. The names of the driver and passenger have not been

released. Sgt. Chad Rothenberger says the driver was a male, born in 1929 and from La Center, Wash. The woman has not been identified.

Ferrari stolen PORTLAND — Polk County authorities say a 29-year-old man stole a $125,000 Ferrari, leading police on a chase. Polk County Sheriff’s Sgt. Mark Garton says Leon Mickey Davis is considered armed and dangerous, and is on the run. Davis is known to frequent Grand Ronde, Salem and Tillamook. — From wire reports

Attorney General defends confidentiality The Oregon attorney general’s office separately concluded the public has no right to the records under current law. Deputy Attorney General Mary Williams wrote that “while it may be desirable to have a public record of precise amounts expended by a private entity for public employees to travel on the public’s business, particularly where the public’s business directly concerns the entity that is paying for the travel,” state law doesn’t require it. No Treasury investment officers other than Schmitz responded to questions about their travel. In 2007, the agency sought and received a special exemption from new ethics restrictions that limited or banned free lodging and meals for virtually all other state employees. Internal records obtained by The Oregonian show Treasury officials argued in part that they operate in a special world. If they couldn’t take free meals, one memo said, they might lose access to investment opportunities.

Listen to public

n at least one regard, the Redmond school board is in an enviable position these days. Thanks to the slumping economy, the $110 million voters handed the district in 2008 will go much fur-

ther than expected. In the coming months, school leaders will have to decide what to buy with the extra money, which could amount to as much as $17 million. The district could use the savings to buy more stuff, including, perhaps, a stadium at the new high school. It could send the extra money back to taxpayers, buying goodwill during a difficult period. Or it could do some of both. There’s something to be said for all three options. As a starting point, however, the school board should assume that most, if not all, of the extra money rightfully belongs in the pockets of taxpayers. Over time, district leaders may discover greater public support for spending the extra millions than returning them. But those who want to spend the savings deserve the burden of building their case. We have no doubt that Redmond could put the extra bond funds to good use. The district could easily spend $17 million, and a lot more besides, on projects most people would consider reasonable. But few voters, if any, believed the $110 million they approved two years ago would come close to meeting every, single one of the district’s needs. School districts lucky enough to have capital budgets equal to their needs are scarcer than blizzards in Bermuda. When school districts ask voters for money, they say, in effect, “these are the things we absolutely must have.” They know that taxpayers have other uses for their money, including the maintenance and improvement of

their own property. Thus, the success of bond requests hinges in part on the credibility with which school officials claim to have been frugal. Many voters will say “no” if they believe school officials have asked for more money than they really need. As they say, it’s all about trust. So when a school district spends saved bond money on other projects, it risks alienating the taxpayers whose support it eventually will need again. Having watched officials dedicate extra funding to a new stadium rather than a tax refund, many voters will greet the next bond request with suspicion. Who’s to say school officials won’t discover millions of dollars of new “savings,” which, naturally, will not be returned? Voters who believe they’ve been abused have a simple, and very effective, two-letter response: no. Having said that, we don’t consider the school board’s upcoming choice — or set of choices — simple. There might, in fact, be overwhelming public support in Redmond for spending the bond savings on other projects. Before doing so, though, the board should make an extraordinary effort to gauge the public mood. That new stadium won’t seem so wonderful, after all, if voters are still mad when the district asks them to pay for another elementary or middle school.

A tip for voters D

emocrats, independents and minor-party members in Deschutes County should close their eyes and wish as hard as they can for either Tammy Baney or Ed Barbeau to prevail in the race for commission position number three. Wishing is as close as they’ll come to voting. Barring an unlikely write-in campaign, registered Republicans will choose the winner of this contest. County commission seats are filled by partisan elections. Republicans have two candidates, and Democrats have none. Thus, the winner of the Republican primary is a virtual lock. Democrats had their turn in the May 2008 primary, when state treasurer candidates Greg Macpherson and John Kroger squared off to represent the party on the November ballot. Because no candidates appeared on the corresponding Republican ballot, the Democratic primary decided the winner. Whether you like closed primaries or dislike them, as we do, the state now provides a powerful tool to use the system to your advantage. We wrote about online voter registration last month, but it deserves all of the publicity we can provide before the April 27 regis-

tration deadline. In order to hop parties, registered voters need nothing more than Internet access, a driver’s license and five minutes. We understand that some Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians and so forth wouldn’t consider switching parties, even for a few weeks, any more than they’d consider having their eyeballs tattooed. But voters with a more pragmatic outlook should think of the process as picking a ballot. To this end, a little research helps.

My Nickel’s Worth Obama understands At a time when Americans need it most, President Barack Obama has heeded the call by promoting accessible education and making it more financially feasible than ever before. World competition in all sectors of the economic market are looking for not only the least expensive way to produce goods and services but to the resource that produces the most educated, dependable and skilled workforce. It is no longer a reasonable expectation that a worker will live his life at one company with one job, so we must all remake ourselves to match the changing needs of the world stage. President Obama understands that world and seeks through his Health Care and Reconciliation Act to prepare us all for that which is yet to come. We should all accept this opportunity as a gift from the Obama administration and retool ourselves for a great future. Caroline and William McKee Bend

Dislike cartoon About the recent editorial cartoon on the subject of “race attack.” I question The Bulletin’s taste and judgment in publicizing this cartoon. Was the intent to minimize the racial incidents that occurred in our nation’s capitol over passage of the health care bill? Was the intent to ridicule those subjected to racial incidents? Was the intent to

imply that racism is somehow OK or fashionable again? I wonder which of the following The Bulletin would condone: a sign in a recent D.C. protest that read “There’s an African lion in the Washington zoo and a lyin’ African in the White House” or a black congressman being spit on or another black congressman being called a racial epithet (the latter two incidents related to the House debate on health care reform). Is The Bulletin suggesting that these types of behaviors are acceptable? Is your intent to suggest they should be overlooked or tolerated? The correlation in your cartoon between “race attack” and a political statement (“we’re targeting you in the November race”) is belittling and disingenuous given the real incidents that have occurred. I find the implications in your cartoon disheartening, to say the least. You took a serious and disturbing trend in U.S. politics and turned it into a snide jab at the Democrats. What’s next: a call from The Bulletin to return to the Reconstruction era? For shame! You owe your readership an apology. You also owe us better coverage on national news. Beth Hoover Bend

Massage benefit As a practicing licensed massage therapist with clients from nearly all major insurance carriers — Blue Cross,

Clear One, Lifewise, HealthNet of Oregon and EBMS (Deschutes County) — I am disheartened by the article about Deschutes County and their massage therapy benefit embedded in their health insurance package. I wish the writer would have taken the time to research the benefits of massage available today before making it sound like Deschutes County is being frivolous with its health care funds. Massage therapy is definitely part of a wellness program in today’s world. We don’t wait for cavities before we brush our teeth, so why would one wait until they are injured to receive the benefits of massage? The misconception that massage is a luxury is old hat and old news. Massage therapy requires an intensive education and licensing process to be able to practice in 42 of the 50 states that license massage therapy. The public is much more aware of the health benefits than this article gives them credit for. I would suggest the public investigate and utilize the vast amount of information available about benefits offered through massage therapy. Many other insurance companies offer massage benefits in Central Oregon. They recognize the need and the benefits massage therapy offers their clients. I hope The Bulletin will offer both sides to a story next time and not just make it sound so sensational. Stephanie Manriquez Bend

How Zimbabwe became one of Africa’s greatest failures W NICHOLAS hy is Africa poor? Is it a legacy of colonial exploitation? Tropical diseases and parasites? Or is it that local mammals, like the zebra and the African elephant, were difficult to domesticate and harness in agriculture? There’s truth in each of these explanations. But a visit to Zimbabwe highlights perhaps the main reason: bad governance. The tyrannical, incompetent and corrupt rule of Zimbabwe’s president, Robert Mugabe, has turned one of Africa’s most advanced countries into a shambles. In a village less than a day’s drive from Victoria Falls, I stumbled across a hut that to me captured the country’s heartbreak — and also its resilience and hope. The only people living in the hut are five children, orphans from two families. The kids, ages 8 to 17, moved in together after their four parents died of AIDS and other causes. The head of the household is the oldest boy, Abel, a gangly 10th-grader with a perpetual grin. He has been in charge since he was 15.

At one time, the two families reflected Zimbabwe’s relative prosperity. One mother was a businesswoman who traveled abroad regularly. A solar panel that she brought back from Zambia lies in the courtyard. One of the fathers was a soccer coach who named his son Diego Maradona. Diego may have inherited some of his father’s talent, but he has no soccer ball and no soccer shoes — indeed, no shoes at all. And here, as in much of Zimbabwe, a once-impressive system of schools and clinics has pretty much collapsed, along with tourism, agricultural production and the economy itself. The household stirs to life each morning when Abel rises at 4 a.m. and sets off barefoot on a nine-mile hike to the nearest high school. He has no watch or clock, so he judges the time from the sun, knowing that it will take three hours to get to school. Abel and the other children have no money to pay school fees or buy notebooks. But the teachers allow them to attend class anyway, because they are brilliant students who earn top grades.

KRISTOF

They’re a reminder that talent is universal, although opportunity is not. After Abel leaves for school, responsibility shifts to Diego Maradona, who is 11. He wakes the three younger children, feeds them cold cornmeal mush left over from the previous night’s dinner, and walks with them to the elementary school they all attend a few miles away. When Diego and the younger children return in the afternoon, they gather firewood, fetch water, tend the chickens and sometimes search for edible wild plants. Abel returns by about 7 p.m. and cooks more cornmeal mush for dinner. He dispenses orders and affection, nurses the younger ones when they are sick, comforts them when they miss

their parents, spanks them when they are naughty, coaches them with their schoolwork, begs food from neighbors, fixes the thatch roof when it leaks, and rules the household with tenderness and efficiency. Abel’s goal is to graduate from high school and become a policeman, because the job will provide a steady salary to support his siblings. He does not know how he will come up with the modest fees to take graduation exams. I asked Abel what he dreams of. “A bicycle,” he said. Then he would be able to get home from school more quickly and manage the household better. “Life was a lot better when I was younger,” he said, a bit wistfully. “From what my parents used to tell me, life was a lot better under white rule. There was a lot more food and clothes, and you could afford to buy things.” But Abel insisted that he was optimistic that life would eventually get better again. Westerners sometimes think that Africa’s problem is a lack of initiative or hard work. Nobody could think that after talking to Abel and Diego Maradona

— or so many other Zimbabweans who display a resilience and courage that left me inspired. I found Zimbabwean superheroes like Abel often in my week of surreptitious reporting in Zimbabwe. (Mugabe subjects journalists to imprisonment, so it seemed best not to advertise my presence.) Parents sacrifice meals to keep their children in wretched schools (one teacher showed me his two textbooks for a class of 50). And a growing number of Zimbabweans risk crocodiles, drowning and violence to sneak into South Africa in search of work. So Zimbabwe’s tragedy isn’t its people, but its leader. Likewise, Africa’s failure has been, above all, one of leadership. It is telling that Africa’s greatest success story, Botswana, is adjacent to one of its greatest failures, Zimbabwe. The difference is that for decades Botswana has been exceptionally well and honestly managed, and Zimbabwe pillaged. Nicholas Kristof is a columnist for The New York Times.

includes the watershed where most of the city’s drinking water comes from. • Forest south and west of Sisters and around Whychus Creek, where endangered steelhead salmon are being reintroduced. • An area east of La Pine known as “deadlog,” which is within an area where Forest Service policy allows naturally started fires to burn, as long as they don’t threaten populated areas. • Forest south of La Pine along U.S. Highway 97, known as Paulina Rim. Bend forestry consultant Chuck Burley said the timber industry is supportive of largescale restoration projects, even if it doesn’t think these proposals will create many big logs. “We don’t anticipate seeing a great deal of saw timber,” Burley said. “I think the real thing is trying to figure out how to make

these landscape-scale assessments or projects work.” The area west of Bend could be a bad candidate for the grant, Burley said, because some of that forest is federally designated roadless area, where human impacts are supposed to be limited. The Sierra Club has challenged the need for large-scale thinning projects in Eastern and Central Oregon forests, although it supports road removal and habitat improvement along waterways, said the club’s Eastern Oregon representative, Asante Riverwind. “It’s a matter of whether it’s really thinning, meaning smalldiameter trees, or more logging, with bigger tress, which there isn’t much support for,” Riverwind said.

They tried to answer the question, “of that stuff that you value, what’s currently at risk due to … something we shouldn’t be seeing on the landscape if natural processes were intact?” Waltz said. The regional Forest Service office advanced the Deschutes’ application in part because of the history of cooperation in Central Oregon, said DeMeo, the regional ecologist. “The Deschutes and its partners, I think they stand out as one of the more notable in the region on collaboration just because they have such a long history of it,” DeMeo said.

last year, but last year we did have quite a few more applicants for each position” than in previous years, he said. And in Culver, Superintendent Stephanie Garber said she won’t know whether the district can hire any new teachers until after the budget committee finalizes the budget. “We don’t anticipate a lot of positions at all,” she said, noting the district has an opening for a lead maintenance person and has so many applications it may take days to get through them all. “There’s just completely overqualified people out there who are jobless,” she said.

The Redmond School District decided last month that it will return to a five-day school week. In 2009-10, the district cut 59 teaching positions and moved to a four-day school week to deal with state school funding cuts. Now the district plans to return to a five-day school week, and doesn’t intend to hire any new teachers.

Jefferson County School District may have a few openings. Darryl Smith, the human resources director for certified employees, said several people are slated to retire. But the district will not hire for any new positions. “We’re pretty much just sticking to what we have,” he said. “We’re trying to be fiscally responsible and diligent in our hiring, and we’re not looking at adding any positions back at this point.” Smith said the positions are primarily advertised online, although district officials occasionally attend job fairs for positions that are traditionally difficult to fill, like speech pathologists or other specialized jobs. And he’s not having any trouble getting people to apply. “So far it’s about the same as

This year’s federal budget includes $10 million for the program. President Barack Obama has proposed $40 million for the program next year. The Nature Conservancy, working with local and state environmental groups, industry and local governments identified four areas of local forest that could benefit from restoration and where environmental analysis for work had already started. They focused on areas with old growth trees, wildlife habitat, watersheds and communities at-risk to fire danger, said

The bureau encourages people to fill out the forms because of the effect census data has on everything from federal funding for road projects to congressional representation.

Continued from C1 Their plans call for more than 70 lots to be set aside as a “conservation corridor,” according to their proposal. The county owns about 90 lots in the subdivision, including buildable lots which it could turn over to a nonprofit to then swap with people who own land in the wetlands, Ogden said. The county has swapped land with other entities in the past, County Administrator Dave Kanner said Monday, but he was unfamiliar with the details. Most of the land would be left as-is, but Hubbard and Ogden have also proposed putting a park and a playground in the conservation corridor. The land would belong to a public trust or other entity, and Ogden said the neighborhood’s road district could initially serve as the landholder if another group is not identified to take on the wetlands. Ogden and Hubbard’s homes are near the wetlands, but neither man owns land that would be eligible for the swap, Ogden said. The two men have reached out to private organizations,

cloak and curly brimmed hat, Raabe’s character was known to generations of moviegoers for his official proclamation: The Wicked Witch of the East was dead, the victim of blunt force trauma from an errant Kansas farmhouse. At 4 feet, Raabe (pronounced Robby) was among the taller little people hired for the film’s Munchkinland scenes. Though more than 100 Munchkins appeared on screen, his role was one of just a few with dialogue — lines he obligingly repeated, month in and month out, for the next 70 years as a motivational speaker before school groups and Oz conventions.

Continued from C1 And this year, the event, held at the Bend Armory, was back to being just Bend-La Pine. Bend-La Pine Human Resources Director Jim Widsteen said between 250 and 300 people showed up to Thursday’s recruitment fair. It was fewer people than visited the fair last year, he said, noting most of the teachers present seemed particularly interested in teaching in Central Oregon. “I think they were hopeful there will be more positions,” he said. “It was a very enthusiastic group.” The enthusiasm may not be enough. Bend-La Pine, which is the seventh-largest school district in

an internationally recognized pop-cultural figure, if not precisely a household name. Raabe, who was also a wartime aviator and the first Little Oscar, the mascot of the Oscar Mayer meat company, died Friday in Orange Park, Fla., at 94. Bob Rigel, president of the Penney Retirement Community in Penney Farms, Fla., where Raabe had lived since 1986, said that the cause had not been officially determined but that it was presumed to be a heart attack. At his death, Raabe was one of a handful of surviving Munchkins from the film. With his high-collared indigo

and state and federal agencies, and the director of a local nonprofit said wetlands in south Deschutes County are a valuable resource. “There are a lot of really high-quality wetlands down there, and wetlands are critical for the water quality,” said Ryan Houston, executive director of the Upper Deschutes Watershed Council. South county wetlands also provide habitat for spotted frogs, Ogden said. A preliminary budget for the project is $380,000, which includes the purchase of 70 lots at $5,000, plus the costs to transfer titles on county-owned lots and install signs and an information kiosk. The project would be more feasible if the neighborhood could use county land swaps to obtain most of the wetlands, Ogden said. Right now, the proposal includes many good ideas but needs to be polished, Houston said. “My hope is, people will open their minds to it,” Houston said. “The way I’ve looked at it, it’s worth exploring, it’s worth talking about.”

As coroner, I must aver I thoroughly examined her. And she’s not only merely dead, She’s really most sincerely dead. When Meinhardt Raabe, an unknown 23-year-old from Wisconsin, sang those lines in his first and only Hollywood feature film, he little suspected that they would shape the course of his life for the next seven decades. The lines, of course, belong to the Munchkin coroner in the classic 1939 movie “The Wizard of Oz.” Raabe’s brief appearance in the film — about 13 seconds of uncredited screen time — made him

Anna Walentynowicz, a labor leader whose firing as a crane operator at the Lenin shipyard in Gdansk in 1980 touched off the strike that led to the founding of Solidarity and the unraveling of Communism in Poland, died on Saturday in the plane crash in Russia in which Poland’s president and dozens of Polish leaders were killed. She was 80. Those killed, including President Lech Kaczynski and 95 others, were going to a commemoration of the Soviet massacre of Polish officers in the Katyn forest during World War II. Walentynowicz, who was in her early 50s when she came to prominence, was known as “the grandmother of Solidarity” and the “conscience of the movement.” A welder, then a crane operator, Walentynowicz was a fiercely determined organizer whom her bosses considered a troublemaker.

government was sprouting throughout Poland, her dismissal on Aug. 7, 1980, ostensibly for participation in antigovernment activity, prompted a strike at the shipyard. The firing came just five months before her scheduled retirement. After strikes erupted elsewhere in Poland, the government reinstated Walentynowicz, as well as Lech Walesa, the Solidarity leader, who had also been fired but returned to help lead Gdansk strikers. Walesa would later become president of a nonCommunist Poland. The authorities also agreed, with only slight modifications, to worker demands for guarantees of free speech, pay raises and official recognition of the Solidarity union. Within two years the union would have 10 million members. “If we didn’t press them to the wall before, we would not have got anything,” Walentynowicz said of Solidarity’s threat of a general strike to win concessions.

Bend to bid on mountain bike nationals HEATHER CLARK

ntil now, local mountain bikers may have felt left out whenever the national championship bike racing spotlight shone brightly on Bend.

confirmed that the city’s tourism arm is submitting a bid to USA Cycling to host the 2011 and 2012 Marathon Mountain Bike National Championships. “As part of Visit Bend’s evolving relationship with USA Cycling, we’ve been working with them to establish a longterm hosting deal,” La Placa told me last week. “After we confirmed that Bend would host the 2011 and 2012 masters, we turned to mountain biking.” In its bid, Visit Bend will propose to

The city is halfway through a two-year deal with USA Cycling to host the Junior, U23 and Elite Road National Championships and the Cyclocross National Championships. And already secured is a deal to host the Masters Road National Championships in 2011 and 2012. Mountain bikers might get a ride aboard the bandwagon, however, if Bend is successful in its latest bid for a national championship bike race. Visit Bend CEO Doug La Placa has

host the mountain bike event during the third week of September. “From a timing standpoint it makes a lot of sense for us,” said La Placa. “For the past three years, the event has taken place over the July Fourth weekend. That’s a time when the town runs at a high (lodging) occupancy level without any added events. We’ve made (USA Cycling) aware that our bid for the event is based on a September date.

Mickelson’s emotional victory a win for golf, too

Blazers guard Roy has torn meniscus, may miss playoffs PORTLAND — Portland Trail Blazers guard Brandon Roy has a torn meniscus in his right knee and his status for the playoffs is uncertain. The three-time All-Star missed Monday night’s game against the Oklahoma City Thunder (for results, see Page D4) and will miss Wednesday’s regular season finale against Golden State. He will require surgery and will be out from four to six weeks. But he said he may try to play with the injury in the playoffs because doctors told him it cannot get worse. “I want to play,” Roy said. “It’s the playoffs. You play 82 games and take a beating just to get to this point.” Roy is the Blazers’ leading scorer with 21.5 points per game. He injured his knee on Sunday, 11 minutes into the Blazers 91-88 victory at the Los Angeles Lakers. The Blazers have clinched a spot in the playoffs, but their opponent for the first round has yet to be determined. Roy said doctors plan to reevaluate his knee on Friday. — From wire reports

AUGUSTA, Ga. — hil Mickelson was doing his best not to cry again as he slipped on another green jacket and tried to put into words things that he couldn’t possibly put into words. He had already shed a tear on the 18th green, though he wasn’t alone. Anyone who knew the story had to shed a few, too, as Mickelson latched onto the tiny blonde woman who had been through so much and shared an embrace that neither seemed willing to end. He had struggled on the golf course all year, Phil but that meant Mickelson nothing. Not compared to the struggles Amy Mickelson went through while battling breast cancer. There would be plenty of time later to talk about the shot that will live in Masters lore, plenty of time to reflect on what a third title means to his career. As the fading sun added some drama to the victory ceremony on the practice putting green, though, Mickelson wanted to talk about something closer to his heart — his wife. “We’ve been through a lot this year; it means a lot to share some joy together,” he said. “She’s an incredible wife, an incredible mother. She’s been an inspiration for me this past year, seeing what she’s been through.” It couldn’t have been more sincere. It could hardly have been more appropriate. All week long the talk at the Masters was of another golfer and other women. The circus that surrounded Tiger Woods blew into town on Monday, and the tent was still up as the leaders teed off on a Sunday afternoon brimming with drama. Mickelson hadn’t been ignored, but he had certainly been overlooked. See Mickelson / D4

M’s lose to Athletics in home opener

By Katie Brauns The Bulletin

Casual-dress Friday might once a week bring out the wilder side in some. But typically, it takes a little more to see the truly liberated side of a co-worker. Perhaps it takes a little dirt, maybe some snow, some sort of ball, and a clock that tracks not hours worked but time remaining in the game. “It’s nice to see a different side of people,” says Brian Meyers, of Prineville, who is the assistant finance manager at Subaru of

Bend. Meyers and his co-workers currently field a team that plays one night a week in a coed adult dodgeball league. “Especially working in a place where you wear slacks and suits and ties, it’s nice to be in a place where people can let their hair down.” Like the Subaru team, several other businesses around Central Oregon have taken to local athletic venues to engage in a little friendly after-work competition. “It’s part of the fun of working with great people,” says James Meskill, general manager of Deschutes Brewery &

Public House, who plays on the brewery’s softball team through the Bend Park & Recreation District. “I have worked at places where the last thing you want to do is get together after work. But we all have a great time together.” The park and rec adult softball leagues start next Monday. Deschutes Brewery also organizes weekly mountain bike rides for employees and the public. The rides start when trails are dry, usually in late May. See Ties / D5

Parr helps lead Storm to tournament title Bulletin staff report Kristen Parr was medalist by four strokes Monday, leading Summit to a team victory in the High Desert Classic girls golf tournament. The four-team event was played under mostly fair skies with a few light sprinkles on the Jack Nicklaus Course at Pronghorn Club. The Storm’s winning total was 364 strokes. Crook County was second at 435, followed by Mountain View at 436 and Bend High at 447. Parr blistered the front nine holes, carding a 39, and covered the back nine in 44 strokes for an 18-hole total

of 11-over-par 83. “She played extremely well on a very difficult, challenging course,” said Summit coach Jerry Hackenbruck. “Overall, we had five pretty solid scores — all under 100.” Mountain View’s Kersey Wilcox was tournament runner-up with a score of 87. Summit’s Marlee Barton was third at 93, and the Storm’s Madi Mansberger and Rebecca Kerry each fired a 94 to tie with Bend’s Kayla Good for fourth place. Jaci McKenzie posted the low round of the tournament for Crook County, a 105.

S B Baseball • Oregon State pitcher receives honor: Oregon State right-handed pitcher Greg Peavey has been named the Pacific-10 Conference Pitcher of the Week for the second time this season, league commissioner Larry Scott announced on Monday. Peavey spun a masterful two-hit performance on Friday night against No. 3 UCLA, limiting the Bruins to just a run and three walks while striking out six. UCLA came into the series batting .347 as a team, and managed a single through the left side in the fourth on a hit-and-run and a soft, knuckling liner in the seventh.

Track and field • UO’s Eaton recognized by Pac-10: Ashton Eaton, a University of Oregon senior from Bend, was named Pac10 Conference male outdoor track and field athlete of the week for the week of April 5-11. Eaton, a graduate of Mountain View High School, won the 110-meter hurdles and the long jump and ran the lead leg on the Ducks’ second-place 1,600-meter relay team to lead Oregon to a victory at the Pepsi Team Invitational Saturday at Hayward Field in Eugene.

Football • Roethlisberger: ‘Happy’ to put case behind him: Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is “happy” to put sexual assault allegations in Georgia behind him and knows he must work to regain the trust of his teammates and the team’s large fan base. Roethlisberger, reading a statement for 74 seconds on Monday night but not taking questions from reporters, said Georgia prosecutors reached the right conclusion by deciding not to charge him in the case. The two-time Super Bowl winner plans to resume working out shortly with his teammates, but did not say when. He did not discuss his upcoming meeting with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell or any possible punishment that might be brought against him by the league or the team for violating the players’ conduct code.

Golf • TV ratings rise for Masters, fall short of record: Phil Mickelson’s Masters win, with Tiger Woods lurking but never really in contention, drew much higher television ratings than last year but fell far short of the record set by Woods’ first title at Augusta. Sunday’s final round on CBS earned a 12.0 overnight rating and 25 share, up 36 percent from last year’s 8.8/21 for Angel Cabrera’s win in a two-hole playoff. But it didn’t come close to matching the 15.8/32 for Woods’ first Masters victory in 1997. It was still the third highest overnight rating for a final round of any golf tournament since at least 1986, which is as far back as the records go. Woods’ second Masters title in 2001, when he became the first player to hold all four professional majors at once, drew a 12.9/27. • Watson receives exemption for U.S. Open: Tom Watson will see if he can work some more magic at Pebble Beach in the U.S. Open. Watson accepted a special exemption Monday to play in the major. He won the Open in 1982 at Pebble Beach with a memorable chip-in for birdie on the 71st hole to beat Jack Nicklaus. The U.S. Golf Association had indicated it would given Watson an invitation, and his recent play hasn’t hurt. The 60-year-old Watson lost in a playoff at the British Open last summer and tied for 18th Sunday at the Masters. Watson will be the only player to have competed in every U.S. Open at Pebble Beach dating to 1972.

Hockey • Lightning fire Tocchet, Lawton after poor season: The Tampa Bay Lightning are starting over yet again. New owner Jeff Vinik cleaned house Monday, firing coach Rick Tocchet and general manager Brian Lawton after the struggling franchise missed the playoffs for the third straight season. It’s the club’s third coaching change in two years. The Lightning went 34-36-12 this season and are 53-69-26 since Tocchet replaced Barry Melrose in November 2008. Lawton’s dismissal was not a surprise, either. Many of his personnel decisions and free agent signings backfired, he and Tocchet bickered at times, and the GM’s two-year contract was due to expire in June. Vinik is conducting a search for a chief executive officer and hopes to fill the position within two months. The CEO will select Lawton’s replacement, and the new GM will have the responsibility of hiring the coach. — From wire reports

Will it be Pens-Wings No. 3? NHL Stanley Cup playoffs set to start By Ira Podell The Asso cia ted Press

To borrow an NHL slogan from seasons past, the biggest question heading into this year’s postseason can be simply summed up as: Is this the year? Is this the year the Detroit Red Wings and the defending champion Pittsburgh Penguins give other teams a chance to play for the Stanley Cup? If so, will the San Jose Sharks finally step up in the Western Conference and live up to their lofty regular-season marks and shake their underachieving reputation? If not, will the upstart Chicago Blackhawks or surprising Phoenix Coyotes unseat the Red Wings, who won the Cup in 2008 against the Penguins and then fell in seven games a year ago in the rematch. The answers will begin to unfold Wednesday night when the 16team Stanley Cup tournament gets under way with four games. Three other series will start Thursday, and the Central Division-champion Blackhawks will host the Nashville Predators on Friday in Game 1 of that Western matchup. San Jose finished first in the West last year and was knocked out in the first round by No. 8 Anaheim. The Sharks (51-20-11) finished on top again with 113 points and will try to advance against Colorado, back in the playoffs after a oneyear absence. If the Sharks do get past the Avalanche, they could face Detroit in

the second round. “You’ve got to catch fire,” Red Wings coach Mike Babcock said of the recipe for success. “Sometimes you’re not great in the early rounds, but you’ve got to catch fire. There’s got to be a belief system, and you need role players to step up and your best players to be good. The Red Wings will face the Coyotes in the first round. Phoenix hasn’t been in the playoffs since 2002, joining the Los Angeles Kings for the longest gap between appearances for this year’s qualifiers. The No. 6 Kings will meet the No. 3 Vancouver Canucks, who won the Northwest Division. The Penguins should face serious challenges out East as they begin their quest for a third straight trip to the finals. The most obvious threat to fourth-seeded Pittsburgh on paper appears to be the Presidents’ Trophy-winning Washington Capitals, who posted an NHL-best 121 points. Pittsburgh entered the final weekend of the regular season with a chance to win the Atlantic Division and the No. 2 seed, but a loss to also-ran Atlanta on Saturday ruined those hopes. Now the Penguins are assured of home-ice advantage in only the first round against the Ottawa Senators. Don’t write off the Penguins just yet. Pittsburgh was the No. 4 seed in 2009 and took out No. 2 Washington in the second round. “I’m certainly not looking forward to playing them,” Capitals

Pittsburgh Penguins’ captain Sidney Crosby raises the Stanley Cup after the Penguins beat the Detroit Red Wings 2-1 to win Game 7 of the NHL hockey Stanley Cup finals in Detroit, June 12, 2009. coach Bruce Boudreau said. “I hope they lose in the first round. If we have to play them, we have to play them. I think the road has to go through them. They’re the champions. No reason to think they can’t do it again. They got the same cast of characters.” Capitals captain Alex Ovechkin ceded his hold on the Maurice Richard Trophy, given each season to the NHL’s top goal scorer, after a two-year reign. Ovechkin, the league MVP the past two seasons,

finished one goal behind Crosby and Tampa Bay youngster Steven Stamkos. Ovechkin trails Crosby in several areas, most importantly in the championship department. In the past 12 months, Crosby has captured the Stanley Cup and an Olympic gold medal — two things that have eluded the Russian star. With a loaded offensive lineup that includes high-flying forwards Nicklas Backstrom and Alexander Semin, and top-scoring defenseman Mike Green, Washington is primed to make a long run. The Capitals’ path starts Thursday against the No. 8 Montreal Canadiens, who didn’t secure a playoff spot until Saturday. The final three places in the East weren’t decided until the last two days of the season. The Boston Bruins, last year’s top-seeded team, nabbed sixth place on Saturday and earned a first-round meeting with the Northeast Division-winning Buffalo Sabres. No. 7 Philadelphia needed even more time — a shootout win on Sunday over the New York Rangers in a win or go home game. The Flyers jumped over Montreal with that victory and into a first-round matchup with the second-seeded New Jersey Devils, who edged the Penguins for the Atlantic title. The Devils are in the playoffs for the 13th straight season, the second-longest current streak in the league to Detroit’s 19 consecutive appearances.

AL ROUNDUP Athletics 4, Mariners 0 SEATTLE — Justin Duchscherer was terrific in his second start in 20 months, pitching into the eighth inning to help Oakland ruin Seattle’s home opener with a victory. Cliff Pennington homered and Gabe Gross had a two-run single for Oakland, off to a surprising 6-2 start. Former Mariners star Randy Johnson sent a charge through Safeco Field with a ceremonial first pitch but that was one of the few bright spots for the sellout crowd of 45,876. Seattle has scored just 21 runs while stumbling to a 2-6 start, an especially difficult beginning since it entered the year with playoff aspirations following a splashy offseason.

NBA ROUNDUP

NBA SCOREBOARD

Blazers beat Thunder 103-95 without Roy The Associated Press PORTLAND, Ore. — The chant in the waning seconds of Portland’s 103-95 victory over Oklahoma City started among just a few fans Monday night, then quickly grew to shake the Rose Garden: “Mar-cus Camby! Mar-cus Cam-by!” The 13-year veteran, acquired by the Trail Blazers in a trade just after the All-Star game, earned the thunderous chants after he scored a season-high 30 points and grabbed 13 rebounds to help Portland avoid the defending champion Los Angeles Lakers in the first round of the playoffs. “Wow,” Camby said. “I haven’t heard anything like that since I was in the Garden. It means a lot.” Camby was referring to Madison Square Garden, where he spent four seasons with the Knicks, first hearing the chants when New York became the first No. 8 seed to make it to the NBA finals in 1998-99. He certainly won over any lingering Trail Blazers doubters against the Thunder, with more points than he’d had since scoring 33 back in 2005 with Denver. Camby’s boost came after Blazers guard Brandon Roy announced he had a torn meniscus in his right knee. The injury will keep the three-time All-Star out of Portland’s regular-season finale against Golden State, and his status for the playoffs is uncertain. The loss locked the Thunder into the eighth spot in the Western Conference, meaning they’ll face the Lakers in the first round. Oklahoma City finishes up at home Wednesday against Memphis. “Of course we want to win every game, but that’s impossible. But we want to finish this season off strong. We still have one game to play and we will take this opportunity to play our hardest,” said Kevin Durant, who had 30 points. “No one expected us to be here. We would have liked to be (seeded) higher. But we have to keep fighting and get ready for the playoffs, whoever we play.” If the Blazers win their final game, they are assured the No. 6 seed in the West. If San Antonio wins its finale and Portland loses, the Spurs get the sixth seed. The Spurs beat the Timberwolves 133-111 earlier on Monday night. The victory was Portland’s 50th of the season, giving the team its first back-to-back 50win seasons since 1999-2000 and 2000-01. Rudy Fernandez started

The Blazers jumped out to a 15-8 lead, but the Thunder went on a 10-0 run to close the first quarter — capped by Durant’s three-pointer — to go up 28-22. James Harden’s fast-break slam made it 34-24 for Oklahoma City. Durant gave the Thunder their biggest lead of the first half at 48-36 with a fast-break layup. Durant had 21 points at halftime, with the Thunder leading 51-43. Andre Miller’s hook put the Blazers ahead 53-51 and it was close the rest of the third quarter. Jerryd Bayless’ layup put Portland up 73-71 to start the fourth. Harden’s three-pointer gave the Thunder an 84-79 lead in the fourth, but Portland pulled back in front, 85-84, with Camby’s two-handed dunk with 6:50 left. Durant’s running jumper evened it at 88 before Nicolas Batum made one of two free throws for a one-point lead. LaMarcus Aldridge’s hook shot made it 91-88 before Camby hit a pair of free throws to put Portland ahead 93-88 with 4:03 to go. Batum’s dunk and Miller’s layup extended the lead to 97-88.

Nationals Continued from D1 At this preliminary stage in the process, they are open to that.” Since 2007, the USA Cycling Marathon Mountain Bike National Championships have been held — as they will again this year — in conjunction with the Firecracker 50, a popular, established mountain bike race held annually over the Fourth of July weekend in Breckenridge, Colo. After the marathon mountain bike nationals were staged in Breckenridge for four years, USA Cycling put the 2011 and 2012 championships up for bid. Prospective venues have until July 1 to submit bids. Kelli Lusk, USA Cycling’s mountain bike and cyclocross national events coordinator, told me last week that she expects to announce the selected location for the marathon mountain bike nationals no later than Aug. 1. “We may award them sooner based on what we receive,” said Lusk, speaking from USA Cycling’s headquarters in Colorado Springs, Colo. “It’s really good to move the event around,” added Lusk, who while in Bend for the 2009 Cyclocross National Championships remembered thinking, “Wow, this would be a great venue for marathon. There’s tons of trails here.” Lusk noted that she is planning a site visit to Bend in June to inspect potential courses and venues included in the marathon bid. Despite its label as an ultra-endurance event, marathon-length mountain bike racing (distances ranging from 60 to 100 kilometers, according to International Cycling Union standards) seems to be a growing discipline attractive to a wide range of cross-country off-roaders. The men’s marathon national title was won in 2008 and 2009, respectively, by Olympic cross-country mountain bikers Jeremiah Bishop, of Harrisonburg, Va., and

Jeremy Horgan-Kobelski, of Boulder, Colo. “It’s one of the emerging disciplines of bike racing which has seen growing numbers worldwide,” said La Placa, who estimates that the 2011 and 2012 races would draw 400 to 500 competitors to Central Oregon. La Placa said one course possibility would be to stage the start and finish lines of the marathon mountain bike nationals in or near the Les Schwab Amphitheater in Bend’s Old Mill District. “One of the options,” La Placa suggested, “is to run the national championship course directly out of the Old Mill on an out-and-back course that would include city and Forest Service trails. From an event production standpoint, that would be exciting.” And while Central Oregon has no shortage of backcountry singletrack trails that are perfect for long-distance riding, La Placa said he would hope to surround the championship race with a festival-like atmosphere that is welcoming to both spectators and vendors. Unlike cyclocross or road nationals, the marathon mountain bike national championship is a one-day event, with national titles up for grabs in 14 categories. Should Bend land the national championship, La Placa said the next step would be to vie for the 2013 UCI (International Cycling Union) Marathon Mountain Bike World Championships. “That’s something we’re very interested in,” La Placa noted. “I would say that before a destination or venue is even considered for a world championship, they have to prove themselves with largescale national championships or worldscale events. If we successfully hosted (the marathon mountain bike national championships), it would give USA Cycling and the UCI more confidence in our ability to host the world championships.” Heather Clark can be reached at bulletinheather@gmail.com.

Mickelson Continued from D1 He wasn’t alone, because the drama surrounding the comeback of Woods overshadowed the entire week at Augusta National. Until early Sunday evening, that is. That’s when the week that golf feared suddenly became the week golf fans will always remember. It started with a shot a Vegas highroller would have never dreamed of betting on. It ended with a scene so touching it washed away any lingering memories of the stain Woods had put on this Masters. The man who stands for everything Woods doesn’t stood wearing the green jacket Woods so desperately coveted. Even better, when he looked up on the 18th green, his wife — who had been bed-ridden most of the week — and his children were there to share it all with him. “I was just really glad she was there,” Mickelson said. “I wasn’t sure if she was going to be there today. I knew she would be watching. I didn’t know if she would be behind 18. To walk off the green and share that with her is very emotional for us.” If it was emotional for Mickelson, it was also therapeutic to golf. The throngs who crowded every hole as the leaders made their way around Augusta National may not have been quite sure how much emotion they were going to invest with Woods, but with Lefty there was no doubt. They cheered him on every shot, pulled for him at every turn. And when he hit the shot on No. 13 no one will ever forget, they roared with delight. The swashbuckler danced with danger and pulled it off. Mickelson couldn’t help himself because, while

the risk was great, the reward was even greater. He’s taken that approach his whole career, and he’s lost some big tournaments because of it. He could have lost this Masters, too, something caddie Jim “Bones” Mackay was thinking as he debated the wisdom of the shot with his boss of 18 years. “I begged him to lay up on 13,” Mackay said. “He said, ‘Get out of the way.’” Mickelson was in the pine needles off the right side of the 13th fairway with two large trees right in front of him and 207 yards to the hole. He had a 6-iron in hand, and a narrow chute of just a few feet to feed the ball through while making sure he hit it pure enough to clear the water in front of the green. No one else would have even attempted it. Mickelson didn’t give it a second thought. “I just felt like at that time, I needed to trust my swing and hit a shot,” Mickelson said, “and it came off perfect.” The ball flew out of the pine needles, settling just 4 feet from the hole. Mickelson missed the eagle putt but made the comebacker for birdie and didn’t miss another shot the rest of the way in. “It’s one of those shots, really, that only Phil can pull off,” playing partner Lee Westwood said. “Most people would’ve just chipped that out. But that’s what great players do. They pull off great shots at the right time.” Indeed, the shot was a reminder of just what a great player Mickelson is. The other reminder is that he’s now won four major championships, three of them at the place where he first broke through with a win in 2004 that broke a long scoreless streak in big tournaments.

That tournament will be remembered for the leap Mickelson took on the 18th green after sinking a 20footer to win. He then scooped up his daughter, Amanda, and told her something she likely couldn’t comprehend at the time. “Daddy won!” he said. “Can you believe it?” Amanda is 10 now, and Saturday night she had to have her wrist put in a splint because of a hairline fracture from a roller skating fall. Life isn’t always perfect for the perfect family man, but that was a mere blip compared to the cancer issues both his mother and his wife face. Mickelson, who has for the most part kept Amy’s condition and treatment a private matter, said earlier this week that her long-term prognosis is very good, though she still deals with unspecified quality-of-life issues. Once a fixture in the crowd following Mickelson, she hasn’t been on the course with him at a tournament since being diagnosed last year. On this memorable day, she walked hand-in-hand with her husband off the 18th green, waving to everyone along the way. People stood and cheered, yelling out well wishes to both. Mickelson was red-eyed, seemingly shell-shocked, the goofy grin that so often adorns his face gone for the moment. Amy, though, was all smiles. “Good to see you guys,” she told them. Surely it was. But not nearly as good as it was for golf to see a champion and his wife, together once again. Tim Dahlberg is a national sports columnist for The Associated Press.

PREP ROUNDUP

PREP SCOREBOARD

Summit boys roll to golf victory Bulletin staff report Summit was the team champion by a convincing margin, and host Bend High topped Crook County by a single stroke for second place Monday in the three-team Bend High/Pronghorn Invitational boys golf tournament. The Storm won with a team total of 326 strokes on the Jack Nicklaus Course at Pronghorn Club. Bend was second at 370, and Crook County was third at 371. Sophomore Dylan Cramer set the pace for the victorious Storm, winning medalist honors with a 5-over-par total of 77. Summit’s Jordan Schiemer, who chipped in for an eagle 3 on No. 8, fired an 80 to tie for second place overall with teammate Jesse Heinley, whose impressive approach shot on No. 18 set up a birdie 3 on the tournament’s final hole. Summit coach Mark Tichenor said he was especially pleased with the emergence of freshman Steven Drgastin, who finished sixth overall with an 89. “He was playing his first varsity tournament today,” said Tichenor, “and he stepped up

and was our No. 4 scorer.” Ryan Crownover was the low scorer for Bend and tied for fourth overall with Ben McLane of Crook County, both at 14over 86. Rusty Clemons, coach of the host Lava Bears, was as appreciative of the weather for Monday’s tournament as he was grateful for the opportunity to stage a high school competition on one of Central Oregon’s premier golf courses. “It turned out to be a great day for golf,” Clemons said. “And we want to let Pronghorn know how much we appreciate the use of their course.” In other prep sports on Monday: BOYS GOLF Panthers prevail in conference tourney REDMOND — Redmond golfers swept the top three spots to place first among seven teams at a Central Valley Conference tournament held at Juniper Golf Course.

• Masters swimmers place at state meet: More than 30 Central Oregon Masters Aquatics swimmers competed this past weekend in the Oregon State Championships in Corvallis. Two COMA swimmers, Peggy Hodge and Tom Landis, placed first in every event they entered. Hodge, a part-time Bend resident swimming in the women’s 70-74 division, won the 50-yard freestyle, 1,000 freestyle, 100 backstroke, 100 breaststroke and 100 individual medley. Landis, a Camp Sherman resident competing in the men’s 65-69 division, won the 100-, 200-, 500- and 1,650-yard freestyle events and the 400 individual medley. A number of other COMA swimmers took firsts and seconds in their respective individual events, including Madeleine Holmberg, Kaleo Schroeder, Chris Tujo, Tara Godlove, Gillian Salton, Mike Tennant and Bob Bruce. Thirteen COMA records were set at the meet. Central Oregon took second in the large team category with a total point tally of 1,277. For complete results, see Community Sports Scoreboard on Page D6.

Rugby • Bend boys rugby team takes another win: The Bend Blues, a Central Oregon high school boys rugby team, trounced Newberg Rugby 45-12 Saturday afternoon at Big Sky Park in Bend.

Kevin Baker added three tries and Tyler Bergrud two tries to round out the scoring. The Blues will take on the Reynolds Raiders this Saturday at Reynolds High School in Troutdale.

Little League • Little Leaguers rally to play ball: Sisters Little League will open its season this Saturday starting at 10 a.m. with opening-day ceremonies at the Sisters Community Church ball fields.

Ties Continued from D1 Over the years, a number of local businesses have formed dodgeball, softball, basketball, soccer, football, kickball, bowling, golf and ski teams. Just this past week, Mt. Bachelor ski area started its first employee ski league in which everyone, from the president to snow sport instructors, raced down the hill. The league has two more downhill races schedules for this spring. “I had to race Dave Rathbun (president and general manager of Mt. Bachelor, Inc.), says Lauren Conway, manager of tickets at Bachelor. “It was a little bit of pressure, and I have never run gates before so I was a little nervous. “I think it is a cool opportunity for employees to get together. On the race course, everybody is on the same level. All you have to do is get down the hill as fast as you can. It is pretty entertaining to be in that context with people.” Employees of local businesses who join all-co-worker teams say they believe it is a healthy option for gathering away from the job. And, they say, it builds more dynamic relationships. “It’s definitely good exercise to spend that time outside of work with your fellow workers,” notes Jill Terkell, a Redmond resident and senior marketing coordinator for American Licorice Co. based in Bend. “You just get to know them more personally. It’s just a great time to laugh and release some energy.” Scheduling is perhaps the most difficult aspect of getting

co-workers together for weekly matches, notes Deschutes Brewery’s Meskill. “We are open seven days a week, all day, every day,” says Meskill. “It can be a challenge.” Says Subaru of Bend’s Bob Tippet: “We work a lot of hours, and sometimes work can be really serious — nose to the grindstone. When we are playing dodgeball or basketball it is a way that we can go out together and have fun and enjoy each other.” Others joke that playing sports together gets them out of work a little earlier than usual: “We just have fun doing it, and it gets us out of work,” says Duane Bruhn, of MacSema, a Bend-based electronics manufacturer. Bruhn and three of his work buddies, including his boss, play in a summer golf league through Bend parks and rec. When employee teams end the workday and begin to play, they strip off titles and the stress falls away. They have a common goal with no strings attached, no jobs on the line. All they concern themselves with is trying to win and, above all, having fun. “I’m not in charge of the softball team,” says Meskill. “I get to show up and somebody that works for me five days a week tells me what to do, what order I’m batting in, and where to play on the field. … It’s a time for me to take off my hat as the boss, if

New home for theater

JAMES GOWER, ENGAGED TO ASHLEY ANDREWS, SAYS:

“ How is it my birthday is only one day, but my woman’s last a whole d--- week?” ANDREWS SAYS:

GET OVER IT!!! UGH!!!!!!” SKYLER HURT, FACEBOOK FRIEND:

“Hey, you guys know we can still see this right...?”

Feudbook When couples face off on Facebook, everyone knows By Douglas Quenqua New York Times News Service

Don Shaw, left, and Marilyn Porges dance together as Sherie Neff sings karaoke during the Bend Performing Arts Center housewarming party in late March. Chris Rennolds and Brad Hills, founders of the professional theater company Innovation Theatre Works, say they’re happy to share the space with an array of community performing arts groups.

Former church off Division St. brings Bend theater groups together

What is the sound of an awkward silence on Facebook? If you have to ask, then you probably don’t have friends like James Gower and Ashley Andrews, former high-school sweethearts from Spring, Texas, who are both 22 and engaged to be married this May. Gower, a master of the passive-aggressive status update, lobbed this one in January: “How is it my birthday is only one day, but my woman’s last a whole d--- week?” Andrews, seemingly not one to watch a ball go by, took a full swing with this comment: “GET OVER IT!!! UGH!!!!!!” Gower replied by calling his fiancée a name that can’t be printed here, until the exchange became the social-networking equivalent of shattered china at a dinner party. Eventually, Skyler Hurt, 22, a friend and a bridesmaid, intervened: “Hey, you guys know we can still see this right...?” It’s a question being asked a lot these days as couples, who once had to leave the house to fight in public, take their arguments onto Facebook. Whether through nagging wall posts or antagonistic changes to their “relationship status,” the social-networking site is proving to be as good for broadcasting marital discord as it is for sharing vacation photos. At 400 million members and growing, Facebook might just replace restaurants as the go-to place for couples to cause a scene. See Couples / E6

By Eleanor Pierce • The Bulletin

fter their last attempt to find a home for their theater company fell through, Innovation Theatre Works founders Chris Rennolds and Brad Hills were seriously

dejected. They had searched for two years, and “were about to give up,” Hills said. But then their broker called and said they should look at one more space; a former church had just been listed. The building, former home of Cascade Covenant Church, is a converted warehouse and showroom just east of the Reed Market Road offramp of the Bend Parkway. It’s located at 1155 S.W. Division St., at the end of a strip mostly hidden from passing traffic by the commercial strip mall that houses Brian’s House of Music and, until recently, Big O Bagels. It’s not a high-traffic area, but Rennolds and Hills contend it’s the kind of location that would be considered hip in a city like Los Angeles. And when they saw the potential inside, Rennolds and Hills were glad they didn’t Chris Rennolds give up. They’ve now signed a three-year lease on the space and dubbed it the Bend Performing Arts Center. The center is the new home of Innovation, a nonprofit theater company founded in 2008. More than that, Rennolds and Hills hope it will become host to many other Central Oregon Brad Hills performing arts ventures, and they’ve already made moves in that direction.

Peter DaSilva / New York Times News Service

Leah Ackerman-Hurst says she occasionally uses Facebook to vent about her husband Caleb Hurst. She claims a recent status calling him a “Jerky McJerk Jerk” was meant as a joke.

SPOTLIGHT The theater of the Bend Performing Arts Center has nearly 30-foot-high ceilings, a requirement for hanging theatrical lights. Rennolds and Hills plan to keep the seating moveable, so the space can be completely transformed depending upon the production.

The Arts, Beautification and Culture Commission is accepting nominations for the City of Bend Arts, Beautification & Culture Awards through April 23. Each year the awards recognize 10 individuals, organizations, businesses and government agencies that have contributed to the arts in Bend. Nominees should have celebrated, promoted, beautified or preserved arts, culture, environment or public spaces in the city during 2009. An awards ceremony for the winners will be held June 2. Nomination forms can be downloaded at www.ci.bend.or.us/abc_awards/index.html.

The building As it turns out, former churches can make great theaters. The space, which Innovation began moving into in February, came fairly well-equipped. It had a lobby and kitchenette with a passthrough window, perfect for a concession stand. The rectangular church worship space has high ceilings — a requirement for hanging theatrical lights — and once Innovation procures enough chairs, it will seat 200. A former minister’s office is being transformed into a performing arts library. The space upstairs that will be used as a green room comes with a kitchen and a shower, the latter being a requirement for the actors Innovation employs for its productions. See Innovation / E6

City of Bend seeks arts nominations

You can learn to be financially fit

The lobby of the Bend Performing Arts Center, shown here during the center’s housewarming party in March, also has a small kitchenette (not shown) equipped with a pass-through window — ideal for a concessions stand.

Involvement in community calms fear of aging alone Dear Abby: I am writing about the letter from “Afraid to Be Alone” (Feb. 15), who is moving to a new state and has no family except for her husband. As a teacher of health policy and administration, I agree that she shouldn’t be overanxious about her future to the point of distraction. There are concrete steps she and her husband can take to protect themselves and have some security as they age. These include purchasing long-term care insurance, creating a living will and medical power of attorney, and communicating their wishes about heroic measures should either of them ever face that decision. They should also look into moving to a Continuing Care Retirement Community, most of which have differing levels of care — from assisted living to nursing home care — with guaranteed access to its members. These are just a few of the steps “Afraid” could take now to give herself some peace of mind. — Chris In Pennsylvania Dear Chris: Thank you for your helpful suggestions. Like you, many readers were quick to offer reassurance to “Afraid.” Read on: Dear Abby: My husband and I allayed our own fears by choosing to live in a community with close neighbors and many activities. Avoiding isolation is what is important. Knowing what caregiving and other support services are available also helps, whether or not they are needed right now. “Afraid’s” thoughts of death, if frequent, could be a symptom of depression and should be evaluated by a doctor if they persist. — Happy To Be Alone Dear Abby: “Afraid” should take stock of her life now, and consider her interests and hobbies. Gardening, art, reading, clubs, sewing,

DEAR ABBY “You advised ‘Afraid’ to join church and social groups. I would like to add that if she enjoys children and young adults, she should get to know her neighbors, and volunteer at the library, hospital, school or scout troop in her new area. Children thrive on the love and stories of ‘grandparents’ — and they benefit from the wisdom and experience. These friendships often extend into the home, offering the joy and belonging of family. You are never alone with ‘family’ around you.” shopping, theater, antiquing or volunteering are all possibilities for her future if the need or interest arises. Since she is worried now, she should make sure that wherever she moves accommodates these needs later in life. It’s never too early to become prepared. Last, but not least, the right pet can go a long way toward providing company and comfort. As soon as I walk in the door, I yell to my cat, “I’m home!” — Definitely Not Lonely In Kentucky Dear Abby: Where are “Afraid’s” current friends?

Rachel Berry (Lea Michele), left, and Finn Huson (Cory Monteith) perform together in a scene from “Glee.” The series returns for its second season and reviewers say it was worth the fourthmonth wait.

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Fox took a small gamble when it put “Glee” on a fourmonth hiatus. The freshman show could have lost momentum — even with all the media appearances, the concert tour and other craziness surrounding the show — if viewers found a new program to love. But based on three new episodes, which will start airing tonight, the delay was warranted. If you thought “Glee” was good before, get ready to be dazzled. Not since the heyday of “The Sopranos” has a series gone off the air for such a long time and returned with such energy and spectacle. Tonight’s “Hell-o” works both for loyal fans and those new to “Glee.” At the end of last season, the high school glee team won sectionals. That should have elevated their popularity status. But nothing has changed — they’re still outcasts. “The Power of Madonna,” airing April 20, shows how perfectly this series has been able to blend music and story. The multiple storylines revolve around Madonna tunes. The highlight is a remake of Madonna’s “Vogue” video that allows Jane Lynch — a lock to win an Emmy for her work as the snarky cheerleading coach Sue Sylvester — to show off her unlimited talents. The April 27 episode “Home” is as perfect as television can get. It flawlessly blends stories about family, fathers and self-esteem with the amazing musical performances by guest star Kristin Chenoweth and series regu-

lar Chris Colfer. If Colfer hasn’t already put himself in the running for an Emmy, this episode will ice it. He not only delivers a moving performance as his character Kurt tries to deal with the awkward relationship he has with his father, but he also belts out a showstopping version of “A House Is Not a Home.” The young performers in this series are so good, it’s easy to forget the talented adults, particularly Matthew Morrison as the glee team’s coach Will Schuester. Combine his smooth vocals with Chenoweth’s angelic voice — spellbinding whether she’s singing Springsteen or Bacharach — and the results are extraordinary.

Moving means nothing to true friends. My mother kept in touch with her childhood friends until her death in her 70s — and they were spread all over the country. Like “Afraid” I am an only child, plus I have never been married. I have a few faithful friends from high school and college who are there for me regardless of their location. I, too, would drop anything to be there for them. They mean everything to me, and I know our relationships will continue through our old age. — Grateful For My Friends Dear Abby: You advised “Afraid” to join church and social groups. I would like to add that if she enjoys children and young adults, she should get to know her neighbors, and volunteer at the library, hospital, school or scout troop in her new area. Children thrive on the love and stories of “grandparents” — and they benefit from the wisdom and experience. These friendships often extend into the home, offering the joy and belonging of family. You are never alone with “family” around you. — Nana To All, In Virginia Dear Abby: We, too, spent the first 30 years of our marriage feeling like the only childless couple in the world. Then we moved to an age-restricted community. We have never been happier. Many of our new friends also have no children, and we no longer worry about aging alone. — Karen In Henderson, Nev.

Actress Tina Fey, left, plays former Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin, and actress Amy Poehler plays Hillary Clinton on a 2008 episode of “Saturday Night Live.”

Tina Fey, her Sarah Palin impression return to ‘SNL’ By Jake Coyle The Associated Press

NEW YORK — She’s back and wearing leather. Tina Fey reprised her impression of Sarah Palin on “Saturday Night Live” while hosting the NBC sketch comedy show Saturday night. It was Fey’s first performance as the former Alaska governor since her iconic impressions during the 2008 presidential campaign when Palin was the Republican vice presidential candidate. Fey appeared as Palin in a sketch introducing a mock “Sarah Palin Network,” satirizing Palin’s entry into media. Palin recently launched the program “Real American Stories” on Fox News Channel and will soon begin production on “Sarah Palin’s Alaska,” an eight-part series for TLC. Appearing as Palin in a leather jacket with an American flag pin, Fey introduced a lineup of shows like “Tea Party Wheel of Fortune” (the puzzle read “Obamar is a terrist”), “Are You Smarter than a Half-Term Governor?” and “30 Main Street,” a parody of her own “30 Rock.”

Other fake shows included “Hey Journalist, I Gotcha,” in which Palin re-edited interviews to make it look like her interviewers — like CBS’ Katie Couric — were “woefully unprepared.” Also touted was a spinoff starring husband Todd Palin (played on “SNL” by cast member Jason Sudeikis) as a renegade police officer transferred from Alaska to New York. Fey made four appearances in 2008 as Palin, earning her an Emmy last year for guest actor. She was also voted 2008’s AP Entertainer of the Year. The 39-year-old comedian said the whole experience was “a little overwhelming,” but in a recent interview with The Associated Press, she said reprising Palin was “inevitable.” Shortly before the 2008 election, Palin made a cameo appearance on “SNL” alongside Fey. Afterward, Palin said she had fun on the show and would do it again if asked. Fey was a cast member and head writer on “SNL” before leaving to create “30 Rock” on NBC.

Couples

When private matters become public

Continued from E1 As score-settling on Facebook has grown commonplace, sites like Lamebook have begun documenting the worst spats (which also happen to be the most humorous). On Facebook itself, people can join several groups with names like “I Dislike People/Couples Who Argue Publicly on Facebook.” For most couples, the temptation to publicly slander each other is overpowered by the instinct to prove to their friends how happy they are, reality notwithstanding. But some find that arguing in front of others comes as naturally as slamming doors. While a hot temper (or two) is often to blame, there are people, like Gower, who view Facebook as an opportunity: How better to show everyone what his future wife puts him through? “My friends have a biased opinion of her, and her friends have a biased opinion of me,” Gower said. Broadcasting his gripes on Facebook is “a way to get your side of the story out there to everybody. That way, they don’t just hear her side.” Andrews shares her fiancé’s view. “A lot of people aren’t with us if we have a fight at home,” she said. This way, “All our friends can kind of comment on it.” For the record, both Gower and Andrews say they are happy together and anticipate marital bliss. They find their Facebook parrying hilarious, and are not bothered by any loss of privacy.

Privacy on Facebook is a squishy thing to begin with, as most members know. Not only are there those advertisements from companies that — surprise! — know where you went to college, but there’s also the fact that Facebook accidentally sent private messages last month to the wrong people. In one case, a Wall Street Journal editor found his Facebook in-box flooded with other people’s pillow talk. To some couples who fight on Facebook, the battle for public opinion seems to be a driving force. Ryan Stofer, a 19-year-old college student from Hutchinson, Kan., said his arguments with an ex-girlfriend were little more than attempts to protect his reputation. “She’d be talking to her friends on Facebook about how bad a boyfriend I was, and I would be like, ‘No, I was decent,’” he recalled. Eventually, Stofer’s friends became so fed up with the constant sniping that they started a Facebook group to protest it. Leah Ackerman-Hurst, 34, a soon-to-be nursing student in Alameda, Calif., says she occasionally uses Facebook to vent to her friends about her husband, Caleb. In a recent status update, she called him “Jerky McJerk Jerk” after he insisted she get rid of their pug. She says the comments are meant as jokes (mostly), though friends often end up taking sides anyway. “I’ll say something joking about him, but others will take

James Gower and his fiancée Ashley Andrews work on their laptops in their apartment in Conroe, Texas. They often communicate on Facebook even when they are sitting in the same room. it seriously,” she said. The situation came to a head a few weeks ago when two friends planning a girls’ night out intentionally didn’t invite her because “they thought I was disrespectful to my husband on Facebook,” she said with a laugh. “My husband was like, ‘They obviously don’t know you.’” But some marriage experts say that taking your disagreements to Facebook, even jokingly, is nothing to LOL about. Instead, the urge to make private disagreements public represents a gradual but significant degradation of our regard for marriage. “From the Victorian era through the 1950s, marriage was viewed as the source of all safety from a predatory world,” said Michael Vincent Miller, a psycholo-

gist and the author of the book “Intimate Terrorism: The Crisis of Love in an Age of Disillusion.” Striving for that ideal, he said, meant keeping your disagreements private, “to keep a public face of harmony.” But as the counterculture of the 1960s and ’70s ushered in a new openness among married couples, “that ideal of marriage began to pass away,” he said. Soon, the idea that lovers should present a united front at all times came to seem quaint or even naïve, particularly to a generation raised on Oprah Winfrey and Jerry Springer. Today, popular representations of marriage tend toward “two very self-protective egos at war with one another,” Miller said, “each wanting vindication

and to be right by showing that the other is wrong.” That characterization has just received some prime-time reinforcement in the form of “The Marriage Ref,” a new NBC show created by Jerry Seinfeld in which a celebrity panel hears a fight between a married couple and discusses who is right. “For the first time, audiences will be able to look at these fights, analyze them and declare a winner,” reads a description of the show on NBC’s Web site. But rather than win support, fighting in front of your friends will more likely convince them that you shouldn’t be together in the first place, marriage counselors say. That certainly seems to be the case among friends of Facebook fighters, who, like any

witnesses to a public spat, are caught in the middle, unsure whether to intervene or mind their own business. “This is my only exposure to how you two are interacting, and it’s not good,” said Hurt, the friend of Gower and Andrews. She likely spoke for many Facebook bystanders when she said her attempts at peacemaking between her friends — whether online or off — were partially intended to shame them into behaving. “I’m spending over $200 on apparel to be in this wedding,” Hurt said in a telephone interview. “We’re having fitting after fitting and showers and parties. Meanwhile, their whole relationship is falling apart on Facebook.” Losing the support of friends and loved ones does not bode well for a couple’s long-term prospects, said Brad Wilcox, director of the National Marriage Project at the University of Virginia. “People tend to do better in their marriage when friends and family are supportive,” Wilcox said. “When that support dries up, that can be a really big problem.” Gower and Andrews both laughed off the suggestion that their relationship was in trouble. They said they are a stable couple very much headed to the altar this May. This, in spite of Gower’s recent change in relationship status: from “Engaged” to “It’s Complicated” and back again, all in a single day. “That was just a joke to mess with her,” he said, followed by a pause. “She just gave me a dirty look.”

Where Buyers And Sellers Meet 1000’s Of Ads Every Day CENTRAL OREGON BUILDERS ASSOCIATION

The new Bend Performing Arts Center, home to Innovation Theatre Works, was the previous home of Cascade Covenant Church.

Innovation Continued from E1 On a recent day, local thespian Derek Sitter, founder of the pub theater start-up Volcanic Theatre, was cheerfully painting his new office. Hills and Rennolds can walk through the center and rattle off a long list of improvements they’d like to make to the space if only they had the funds. Functional heating and air conditioning in the theater is high on the list. Innovation hasn’t put on a professional production — the theater uses performers from the Actors’ Equity Association union — since summer 2009, but despite that, the center is already being put to use. Innovation has resumed its play-reading series, which will now take place on the second Monday of each month. The first Monday is reserved for a project called the SpeakEasy, an openmic storytelling event hosted by Bend performer Guy J. Jackson. Acting classes are also coming, and plans are in the works for Bend Park & Recreation District’s summer youth acting classes to be held at the Bend Performing Arts Center this year.

A home for the performing arts Innovation Theatre Works isn’t the first group to envision a performing arts center for the region. According to previous reports in The Bulletin, the Central Oregon Symphony Association and Central Oregon Community College began discussing a performing arts center back in 1999. The vision for the performing arts center was to have a 1,500seat or larger facility that would host local groups as well as touring theatrical and fine art music performances, which now don’t have a place to stop in Central Oregon when traveling between cities like San Francisco, Boise and Portland. In 2004, Bend’s Louann Thomas, a former member of the symphony association’s

board, founded the nonprofit Central Oregon Arts and Cultural Center, an organization with the mission of creating a performing arts center in the region. Later, the Bend City Council agreed to provide 10 acres for the project in the planned Juniper Ridge development, which is now stalled. A bigger problem for the nonprofit Thomas founded is the massive fundraising that would be required — some estimates have put the bill at $80 million. Rennolds said she would love to see the larger performing arts center eventually come to Bend, but she wasn’t interested in waiting. “It’s going to be at least 10 years. Brad and I are too old to wait 10 years,” she quipped. Innovation’s founders and the board of the performing arts nonprofit agree that there is room in Bend for both centers. “We’ve been working with Brad and Chris,” Thomas said. “We’re really supporting what they’re doing, I think it’s going to be a really good thing.” Thomas said her board is still holding on to its vision for the performing arts center, and while she was hesitant about pinning a timeline on the project, she said it certainly won’t happen in the next two years.

The theater landscape The Bend Performing Arts Center adds another element to a theater scene that has seen some changes during the last few years. Maralyn Thoma’s 2nd Street Theater has ceased producing plays, but Thoma continues to rent the space and offer support to groups and individuals, including Bend Experimental Art Theatre for young people and a local, self-producing playwright. Thoma said she’s also renting the space this summer to a young theater startup, as well. Cascades Theatrical Company is continuing to run a full season after a budget scare in 2008 that led to staff reorganization and a deliberate move to-

ward choosing crowd-pleasing plays, according to Lana Shane, the theater company’s operations manager. Additionally, a small pub theater movement has sprung up in Bend. Sitter’s Volcanic Theatre and The Actors Realm performed the David Mamet play “Bobby Gould in Hell” a handful of times in March to crowds at a Bend bar and downtown wine shop. Some other Bend residents have begun their own pub theater group, TWB Productions, and plan to put on a production of Louis LaRusso’s “Lamppost Reunion” at McMenamins Old St. Francis School in May.

Big needs Despite all the energy evident in the local scene, theater is not a moneymaking venture. It’s often a struggle to cover the costs of production, local theater pros say. Rennolds said when it comes to the new Bend Performing Arts Center, there isn’t a problem that couldn’t be solved with money, but she and Hills have invested all of their own funds they can. “We’ve maxed out on our personal capacity,” she said. While they have had some support, such as donations from Denfeld Paints and a grant to buy theater seats from Deschutes County, the two said they are well aware of their unfortunate timing. Innovation Theatre Works has lofty goals for an organization that started up just as the economy took a dive. But Rennolds and Hills said they couldn’t ignore their vision, despite doubts. “Even while we were telling people all that we were going to do,” Hills said, “We were saying, ‘How’re we gonna do that?’” Rennolds admits that their goals have never sounded very realistic. But she likes to repeat a quote by the late U.S. Sen. Paul Wellstone: “Sometimes the only realists are the dreamers.” Eleanor Pierce can be reached at 541-617-7828 or epierce@bendbulletin.com.

“Drinking a daily cup of tea will surely starve the apothecary.” —Chinese proverb By Penny Nakamura For The Bulletin

Never discount the benefits of drinking tea. Numerous studies have suggested tea can help with digestion, weight loss, staving off a cold and many other ailments, according to tea expert Natty Lee Seidenverg. Owner of Bend-based Lovely Goat Plant Medicine, Seidenverg blends her own teas locally and has written the book “Townshend’s Apothecary Materia Medica” for Townshend’s Bend Teahouse in downtown Bend. “I believe Eastern herbalists and their use of teas is much further along than the Western herbalists, as we’ve gotten away from the organic connection between plants and people,” said Seidenverg, sipping a cup of tea at Townshend’s, where her tea blends and book are sold. “Every people of every nation has at one time had a relationship and a connection to nature and plants, and we’ve kind of gotten away from that as we rely more on just Western medicines and drugs.” Holly Hutton, who owns the local Herbal Goddess teas and blends her own organic teas, says if you look around Asia, tea is part of everyday life.

entral Oregon’s harsh, arid climate is tough on house exteriors. The dry climate, combined with plenty of direct sunlight, creates considerable job security for area painters.

Regardless of where your house is located, the exterior will need ongoing maintenance and painting on a regular basis. Besides, your home’s exterior is a reflection of you, and most people want it to look good. But take a close look all over the house before deciding to repaint, because the finish won’t weather at the same rate. On the side of the house that is in direct sunlight most of the time, the paint fades, cracks and peels much faster than elsewhere. The side of the house that is sheltered from the elements or shaded by large trees will get less direct sun, and the paint there will look better longer. Evaluate the finish that is in the worst condition. It may be possible to repaint just that area and postpone the entire job for another year or two. But when you decide to redo the whole house, you may opt for a new color. Like anything else, the exterior paint color that was in a few years back may, sadly, be out of style today. You may decide to upgrade with a more contemporary color, or a shade that makes the house look newer. So, if an exterior house paint job is in your future, read on for some considerations.

COVER STORY

Tea Continued from F1 Hutton laments that we’ve become a Starbucks nation, drowning in coffee instead of looking at a beverage such as tea as something that can actually be good for us. “Tea is becoming more popular now — I think people are starting to realize that herbs are the people’s medicine, and as health care costs go up, people are looking for alternatives,” explained Hutton. “My own experience is there’s not a magic pill for everything. Herbs can build in your body, and they can carry a medicinal property.” Studies show that the flavenoids contained in tea are powerful antioxidants similar to those found in fruits and vegetables. Technically speaking, all true teas come from the Camellia sinensis plant. How the fresh leaves of the tea plant are processed and their level of contact with oxygen determine what type of tea the end product will be. Green tea is not oxidized. The leaves are steamed, rolled and dried. Black tea is allowed to oxidize for two to four hours, while oolong tea falls in the middle, with the leaves only partially oxidized. For white teas, the buds are picked before they open and are then dried. Herbal teas do not come from Camellia sinensis, but are an infusion of roots, leaves, bark, seeds and flowers of various plants.

Tea, then and now The Chinese have been credited for drinking tea for at least 4,750 years. According to Chi-

Natty Lee Seidenverg, owner of Bend-based Lovely Goat Plant Medicine, gives Mike Graham, of Bend, a sip of her fresh-brewed cup of Deep Immune Support with Maté at Townshend’s Bend Teahouse in downtown. Seidenverg blends her own teas locally and has written the book “Townshend’s Apothecary Materia Medica.”

“Tea is becoming more popular now — I think people are starting to realize that herbs are the people’s medicine, and as health care costs go up, people are looking for alternatives.” — Holly Hutton, who owns the local Herbal Goddess teas nese legend, the second Emperor of China, Shen Nung, discovered tea by accident when winds blew leaves from the Camellia sinensis plant into his cup of water. Americans have a special relationship to tea, and often think of the Boston Tea Party of 1773, when protesting colonists dumped hundreds of chests of tea into the Boston Harbor. The British were trying to tax the tea sold to colonists, and historians credit this event as one of the major skirmishes that began the American Revolution.

According to the Tea Association of the United States of America, the wholesale market for all types of teas has nearly quadrupled in the past two decades, from $1.85 billion in sales in 1990 to an estimated $7 billion today. The Tea Association also estimates there are more than 2,400 specialty tearooms and retail shops across the country. Townshend’s Bend Teahouse, which opened in downtown Bend in January 2008, has become a popular tearoom, serving dozens of different tea blends. A wall of

the shop is devoted to various bottles of dried tea, allowing customers to sniff the blends before deciding what type of tea they’d like to purchase or have brewed.

course in herb and plant studies at the Third Root Community Health Center in Brooklyn. As an herbalist, Seidenverg says there’s much to learn from Chinese, Indian and Native American herbalists, who have studied herbs as part of their cultures and traditions. Seidenverg says as a student, she had herbs drying from all the rafters in her room, as she tried to perfect the art of making tea blends. Though she admits she’s still constantly learning about teas, herbs and blending them, she has found numerous tea blends that seem to help with different ailments, and taste good. “I have the ‘clear skin’ tea, which is sweet tasting, like root beer, and it’s good for all types of skin disorders from acne to eczema. It contains sassafras, which builds the blood, supports the liver, (and) clears inflammation to help heal skin eruptions,” said Seidenverg. “There’s a tea for headaches, a ‘tummy tamer’ tea to help settle the stomach, sinus teas, arthritic tea. There are various herbs that can help with any number of ailments.”

Herbal teas Should you wish to blend your own herbal teas, Shay Smith, the owner of Earth Sense in downtown Bend, carries more than 200 dried herbs in her little shop on Wall Street. She says all her herbs are organic and regionally grown by Mount Rose Herbs in Eugene. “If you want to blend your own herbal teas, I carry the biggest line of herbs in Central Oregon, and if I don’t have it, I can certainly order it for you,” said Smith. “There are so many teas you can make, the possibilities are really endless.” Kelly Giebelhaus, of Calycosa

A cup of tea brews for a specific time at Townshend’s Bend Teahouse. Teas of Bend, has been blending herbal teas for about four years. She started blending teas just for friends as gifts, but after a lot of encouragement and prodding from friends who wanted more and more of her teas, she decided to start her own business. Like Hutton and Seidenverg, Giebelhaus says she knows about the health benefits of her teas firsthand. “I have a pregnancy line of teas, which helps with nausea. It builds the blood and balances the hormones, it contains ginger root and peppermint leaves, which helps with morning sickness,” explained Giebelhaus, who delivered her daughter Jahala 2½ months ago, and says the teas helped her feel well through her pregnancy. But it didn’t stop there. Giebelhaus blended an herbal tea called “Nurture the Nurser” which contains fenugreek, alfalfa, nettles and other herbs that can help with milk production for nursing mothers. “Tea is an ancient and sacred ritual. It makes the body feel so good, and it’s so beneficial — what a great vehicle to enjoy it, a cup of tea,” said Giebelhaus. Giebelhaus says once you start tasting delicious teas, it’s hard to use the store-bought tea bags, which she feels often lose their potency and can start to taste generic. “Tea should deliver this whole experience with high notes, and subtlety. It should be pleasing to the senses, with background flavor. I love to blend these teas for ... health benefits, but also for pure enjoyment. You realize how good tea can be,” said Giebelhaus. “It’s wonderful to branch out with teas — for every season and reason there is a tea.” Penny Nakamura can be reached at halpen1@aol.com.

F A brunch menu to ring in the spring (Minneapolis) Star Tribune

A springtime review Let’s not forget the rest of the meal, which is easy to make for even the busiest of cooks. For color and texture, we’re serving a simple salad of spring greens and composing it on the individual brunch plates with the eggs. This menu should be served as a restaurant does, with salad and eggs in position before the dish lands in front of your guest; it’s simply too pretty to serve family style. We will pass a platter of roasted asparagus, which takes virtually no effort to prepare. If you’ve got some big, burly guests who need even more protein for breakfast, prepare some bacon or slices of ham to pass at the table, but for most everyone else, this light yet filling meal offers an unexpected treat for a spring gathering — a menu well suited to those events that pop up like crocus this time of year, from Easter to bridal or baby showers to Mother’s Day and more.

Don’t forget dessert The end of the meal is as important as the beginning, and once again luxury returns with an Almond Cake rich with almond paste and drizzled with StrawberryRhubarb Sauce. The cake can be made in advance to ease the lastminute pressure of entertaining. A beverage is a must, of course, so break out the bubbly. My personal preference for any such gathering is for a sparkling wine (we’re celebrating the end of winter, for goodness sake). Stick to a dry variety, and the bubbles will suit the eggs, lobster and asparagus. (And note the sense of splendor when serving any sparkler.) If mimosas are more your style, serve the bubbly half-andhalf with orange juice, freshly squeezed for the best flavor. If white wine is your preference, either a pinot grigio or sauvignon blanc pairs well with this menu.

Makes 1 tube cake (20 servings). 1 C (2 sticks) butter, at room temperature 7 oz (¾ C) almond paste (see note) 2 C sugar 6 eggs, separated 1½ C flour

½ tsp salt 2 tsp baking powder ½ C milk 1 TBS almond extract Powdered sugar Strawberry-Rhubarb Sauce (recipe follows)

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cream butter and almond paste thoroughly. Add sugar slowly and continue beating until light and fluffy. Beat in egg yolks one at a time. In a separate bowl, whisk together flour, salt and baking powder thoroughly. In a cup or small bowl, combine milk and almond extract. Add one-third of flour mixture to the butter mixture and stir gently but thoroughly; add one-third of milk mixture and stir gently but thoroughly. Continue to add flour mixture and milk alternately until all has been incorporated into the batter. Beat egg whites until stiff but not dry; gently fold into batter thoroughly. Spoon into well-greased, 10-cup tube pan (an angel food cake pan or Bundt pan) or in 2 loaf pans. Bake for about 50 to 55 minutes (slightly less for loaf pans), or until cake tests done with a toothpick. Cool in pan for 10 minutes. Loosen cake gently around rim and tube. Cool completely before removing from pan. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with Strawberry-Rhubarb Sauce. Note: Almond paste comes in a tube and can be found in the baking section of supermarkets. It’s not critical to the recipe and can be omitted, but it will add an extra layer of almond flavor (if you don’t use it, lessen the milk by 2 tablespoons). The cake can be made up to a day in advance, or longer if frozen.

By Lee Svitak Dean It was the name that caught my attention: Soft eggs with lobster. On bruschetta, no less. Little did I know it came scrambled with cream cheese and drizzled with truffle oil. Wow. I was dazzled before I took the first bite. What came to mind after I had savored the luxurious treat at Bar La Grassa in Minneapolis, and after a few contented groans, was this: I could simplify the recipe and make it at home (a frequent thought that keeps me busy in the kitchen). Eggs and lobster are, indeed, the perfect choice for a spring brunch, a time when we all are looking for a bit of relief as we shed the mufflers and mittens and other vestiges of the past too many months. I am not hesitant to say I could use a little pampering right now — and I’m not talking about a pumice stone and a king-size bottle of extra-dry lotion. I want indulgence I can sink my teeth into. What I love about this sumptuous recipe is that a little luxury goes a long way. Consider the recipe’s basic elements: It is simply scrambled eggs with cream cheese and a bit of lobster served atop what is essentially toast. The operational word here is “bit.” We are talking about a small amount of lobster. You can be as extravagant as your bank account and temperament allow, but for this morning meal, a 5-ounce lobster tail is sufficient for four people — at a cost of $10 or less at a discount grocery store. You could use even less lobster, or none at all, given that the cream cheese is decadent in itself. Or substitute another seafood preference: smoked salmon, shrimp, crab or white fish. But we won’t stop there. With the aim of coddling our guests, we will drizzle a little truffle oil over the eggs for an added layer of flavor. Again, this is not necessary: It’s strictly over the top. But as any chef will tell you, a dish bumps from good to great (and from great to groans of delight) built on the details.

ALMOND CAKE (with Strawberry-Rhubarb Sauce)

STRAWBERRY-RHUBARB SAUCE Makes about 2 cups. 2 C (1 pint) fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced ¼ C sugar 2 C chopped (¼ -in. pieces) rhubarb (2 large stalks),

It takes just a bit of lobster to elevate simple scrambled eggs with cream cheese into a dish your guests will never forget. Think $10 or less for four servings.

BRUSCHETTA WITH EGGS AND LOBSTER

fresh or frozen Juice and zest from 1 orange (about ¼ C orange juice and 1 TBS orange zest)

In a medium bowl, toss sliced strawberries with sugar; set aside. In a medium pot, combine rhubarb and orange juice and, over low heat, bring to a simmer. Cook rhubarb until barely soft, about 5 minutes — do not overcook or the color turns gray. (Or cook in a microwave.) Set aside to cool slightly. Add cooled rhubarb to strawberries and toss with orange zest. Serve over cake or ice cream. Note: Make this the same day it is served for the best color and texture. Zest is the colored part of the skin on citrus fruit (not the white pith, which is bitter). Don’t like rhubarb? Just use strawberries.

Makes 8 servings. 1 baguette, cut in 16 (½ -in.) slices 1 garlic clove, peeled Butter 2 or more (5 oz each) lobster tails (defrosted, if frozen)

14 eggs, beaten until yolks and whites are well-combined 4 oz cream cheese, cut into small cubes (or boursin cheese, see note)

Toast bread in oven or in toaster. Rub one side of each slice with garlic (if you don’t like garlic, omit this). Butter and set aside. Prepare the lobster: Do this before you start the eggs so there isn’t too much going on at the same time. To remove meat from shell, use a kitchen shears to make 2 cuts along the underside of tail (the softer side) and break away the shell. Once the meat is out of shell (before or after it is cooked), remove the black vein that runs along the tail (pull it out or make a cut along the meat, as you would to devein shrimp, and pull the vein out). Choice of options for cooking lobster: Remove meat from shell and saute whole in 2 tablespoons butter, basting it often, for about 5 to 8 minutes, until cooked through, then chop or slice for the eggs, or Remove uncooked meat from shell and chop into chunks and saute in 2 tablespoons butter before adding to the eggs. Or poach meat in the shell for about 3 minutes in water to which some white wine, carrot, celery, onion, chile flakes, fennel seed, mustard seed, peppercorns, bay leaf, thyme, kosher salt and lemon and oranges have been added. (Bring the water to a simmer before adding the tail.) This is how Bar La Grassa prepares its whole live lobster, which is used in this dish (for its specific proportions, see startribune.com/tabletalk). After the tail is cooked, the meat is removed from the shell

Fresh chives, chopped Sea salt and freshly cracked pepper Truffle oil (optional)

and cut into chunks for the eggs. To prepare the eggs: In each of 2 nonstick pans (or 1 large pan), melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add eggs and turn heat to mediumlow. For the largest curds, cook eggs with little stirring, instead pushing cooked part aside with a spatula and allowing uncooked eggs to move into place. When almost done, add cream cheese and stir. Remove from heat. (Eggs will continue to cook.) To serve: On each plate, overlap 2 slices of toasted bread. Divide eggs and place on toast. Top with lobster and sprinkle with chives, a little salt and pepper. Drizzle a bit of truffle oil over eggs, if using. Serve. Note: Bruschetta (broo-SKEH-tah) is a traditional toasted bread topped with something tasty. If you cut the bread on the diagonal, you will get more surface. You can toast the bread an hour or so in advance, but the eggs and lobster need to be cooked right before serving. Each 5ounce lobster tail will provide 4 ounces of meat. Boursin is a creamy soft cheese with the texture of cream cheese, which comes flavored with herbs. It’s a tasty alternative to cream cheese. For large soft curds of eggs, keep your stirring to a minimum.

SPRING GREENS Makes 8 servings. 3 to 4 C butterhead lettuce leaves, or mix of other greens (such as frisee) Radishes, thinly sliced

Small grape-size tomatoes, optional ¼ C olive oil 1 ⁄3 C white wine vinegar

Place a handful of lettuce leaves on the individual brunch plates with the eggs. Scatter a few radish slices and tiny tomatoes.

Salt and freshly cracked pepper

To make vinaigrette, whisk in olive oil to the wine vinegar. Add a little salt and pepper to taste. Drizzle on the salad.

ROASTED ASPARAGUS Makes 8 servings. 1 to 2 lbs asparagus (see note) 2 TBS olive oil

Sea salt and freshly cracked black pepper

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Snap off the tough ends of asparagus, and discard or save for soup. Toss asparagus in olive oil. Place asparagus in low pan in oven and roast for 10 to 15 minutes, tossing occasionally, until tender (time depends on size of asparagus and your definition of “tender”). Sprin-

kle lightly with salt and black pepper. Serve hot or at room temperature with garnish of lemon peel. Note: If you have something else roasting in the oven, the asparagus can be cooked at that particular temperature. If you have light eaters, a single pound of asparagus will suffice.

This Almond Cake gets a boost in flavor and richness from almond paste. It can be made in advance, but the Strawberry-Rhubarb Sauce is best when fresh.

H COVER STORY

Paint Continued from F1 In Central Oregon, which paint colors are trendy, and which are not, can depend on where you live, says Norma Tucker of Denfeld Paints in Bend. And the style of house will determine which colors look great on it — or which ones could be the basis for a lawsuit with the neighbors.

Next week The shabby chic home of Mike and Tess Price.

Spring cleaning: rooted in our grimy history By Jura Koncius The Washington Post

“The first thing you have to think about is where you live and what the covenants, codes and restrictions are,” Tucker said. “You may not have many choices for new colors.” In NorthWest Crossing, she said, all colors must be approved by the homeowners association. But the downtown area, with its diversity of housing styles, eras and neighborhoods, “is wide open,” she said. When you buy a house, the covenants, codes and restrictions are listed with the deed. If you have questions about them, contact your homeowners association. To find out if your neighborhood has CC&Rs related to house color selections, contact your county clerk’s office.

Just how did spring cleaning become an annual guilt trip? A 2000 Smithsonian exhibit on the history of housecleaning included this diary entry from a housewife in 1864: “Swept and dusted sitting-room & kitchen 350 times. Filled lamps 362 times. Swept and dusted chamber & stairs 40 times.” Drudgery journals, such as this one of women’s rights activist Lydia Maria Child, detail housekeeping rituals and shed light for historians on why the biggest housecleaning of the year traditionally happened in spring. Because homes used to be lit with whale oil or kerosene and heated with wood or coal, the winter months left a layer of soot and grime in every room. With the arrival of spring, women would throw open windows and doors, and take rugs and bedding outside and beat dust out of them, and start scrubbing floors and windows until sparkling. “In most climates, you can’t clean very effectively in the middle of the winter,” says Barbara Clark Smith, curator at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of American History. “Warmer weather made it possible to get the house really clean.”

Spruce up your house

Clearing out

Nationwide, 2010 color trends are inspired by a variety of social and economic influences, according to the Paint Quality Institute. More homeowners are taking on simple home projects to save money and improve their current space. Others are sprucing up in preparation for placing their home on the market. Regardless of the purpose, the institute says, a fresh coat of paint remains one of the most economical ways to spruce up your house. Whether you are selling or staying put is one of the first decisions to make when it comes to colors, Tucker said. “If you plan on selling the house, go for a generic selection of colors that won’t offend anyone,” Tucker advises. “Taupes, beiges and earth tones are typically neutral and good choices for potential sellers.” If you plan on staying, all you have to do is work within your area’s CC&Rs.

In many homes, men would get turned out of the house while women completed the weeklong spring chores. “The house would literally be emptied out,” says Susan Strasser, history professor at University of Delaware, who wrote the book “Never Done: A History of American Housework.” Families today have less time to clean, and standards may have slipped. But spring is often a catalyst to undertake chores that aren’t part of the weekly laundryvacuuming-dusting routine. “I think the tradition has carried on because life really does seem to open up in the spring with the lengthening of days and warmth,” says Strasser. “Our bodies respond to the change in seasons.” Strasser’s plan for spring cleaning at her house: “I plan to clean out drawers. I don’t beat rugs, but I’m thinking about window washing.”

Remember CC&Rs

Color-coded to style “You typically want to go with a color that is warm and appealing and goes with the rest of the neighborhood,” Tucker said. “You also have to consider the style of house you have, and what will look good on it.” A Victorian-style home, she said, will look best with bright colors that cover and accent small areas, whereas a ranchstyle home will look better in more subdued earth tones, a perennial favorite color palette in Central Oregon. The tones and color of the paint will also help determine how soon you have to repaint. “Yellows, reds and blues tend to fade faster,” Tucker said. “The earth tones tend to hold their color better.” A definite no-no is to match your paint with your nextdoor neighbors, Tucker said. “It’s a good idea to drive around the neighborhood and see what colors other homeowners used,” Tucker said. “Decide on a color that blends in with the neighborhood and use that.” Leon Pantenburg can be reached at lpantenburg@ bendbroadband.com.

Ways to serve more than dinner at your table By Martha Phifer The Orlando Sentinel

Most would agree that the dinner table is quite an important part of the home. Unfortunately, it’s also an area that we often neglect. How about we all make an effort to work on this?

Celebrate your dinnerware Could your boring dishes be coming between you and a pleasurable experience at the table? The Celebration Seaglass Din-

nerware collection includes triangle-, square- and wave-shaped plates and bowls that can be easily mixed and matched to add a little shape and color to your table. The translucent recycled glass dishes come in rich tones and a matte finish, which totally eliminates ugly fingerprints, says the company. They are also fired at high temperatures and resilient enough for dishwasher and microwave use. Details: VivaTerra .com.

Serving with style is more enjoyable I always enjoy it when people make an effort to serve more than food at the table. By that, I don’t mean dessert. I’m talking about the small decorative details, such as candles or handmade place settings, that make a meal more enjoyable. “Table Style: 101 Creative Ideas for Elegant and Affordable Entertaining” (Ryland Peters & Small; $24.95) by Liz Belton and Rebecca Tanqueray has plenty of

How often do you have dinner at the table? I’ve started keeping an unofficial record of how often my husband and I have dinner at the table. The results are pretty dis-

appointing. On average, we sit at the table together about two or three times a month. The not-sobad news is that we are having dinner together. It’s just not at the table. It’s in front of the TV. I know, I know, that’s awful. But if it makes a difference, we do have good conversation during the commercials. Except it’s often interrupted as soon as the show we’re watching comes back on. (Hey, talking over the TV would be rude!) On a more serious note, we do want to make an effort to change this. And we will. In the meantime, I’ve improvised by “setting the coffee table,” if you can picture that.

A group learns about local gardening at the Oregon State University Master Gardeners demonstration garden in Redmond in 2008. The Master Gardeners offer their annual garden seminar April 24 in Redmond.

Gardening Continued from F1

Master Gardeners seminar The OSU Master Gardeners Spring Seminar & Garden Market is always a day in April to look forward to. This year the seminar will be at the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center on April 24 (see “If you go” ). You’ll need to make your class selection quickly as preregistration ends Friday. Thirteen 90-minute classes are being offered by instructors ranging from college professors to local veterinarians to maybe your neighbor down the street. Each year, certain classes are considered “must haves.” The seminar wouldn’t be the same without learning about hardy perennials or worm composting, or a general overview of vegetable gardening in ground or in containers. But specialty classes will appear on the schedule as well. Central Oregonians are becoming more and more interested in fruit production. This year, Roger Mansfield, who is the only organic commercial apple grower in Central Oregon, will present a class on growing apples in Central Oregon. George Snyder will also present information on growing patio blueberries in Central Oregon.

If you go What: OSU Master Gardeners Spring Gardening Seminar & Garden Market When: April 24, 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Where: Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center, 3800 S.W. Airport Way, Redmond Cost: Classes $10 each, or $48 for a full day with lunch, if you register by Friday. Classes $15 each the day of the event. Contact: 541-548-6088 or extension.oregonstate.edu /deschutes Do you know what a conifer is? Landscape designer Carol Klemz will explain all about them and why we should use them in our landscape. Toni Low’s class on raising chickens will probably be packed with those wanting information on backyard chicken raising. Along with growing blueberries, chicken raising has become one of the most popular backyard garden topics. My favorite bug guy, Ralph Berry, professor emeritus of entomology at Oregon State University, will make you take down the bug zapper, and appreciate the hum and drone of insects in your garden. The interaction of beneficial insects and host plants is a fascinating study. Local veterinarian Byron

Maas will talk about plants that are toxic to animals. This is a new topic on the class roster and one that animal owners/gardeners should be aware of. His topic will cover medicinal plants to have in the garden, along with toxic plants to watch out for in Central Oregon. This year’s guest speaker will be Gail Langellato-Rhodaback, an assistant professor of horticulture and statewide coordinator of the OSU Extension Master Gardener Program. Her presentation will be an unbiased, apolitical overview of genetically modified organisms. The seminar will also include information on greenhouse selection, site preparation and how to outwit our weather, plus the basics of safely preserving the food we grow. The event will also include a garden market with vendors of numerous products.

Home garden What’s happening at my house, you ask? I learned that patience is definitely a virtue when attempting to germinate parsley seed. I did two things wrong to begin with. Actually maybe three when I think about it: I bought the seed. I didn’t soak the seeds as recommended on the seed packet and although the seeds were covered with a seeding mix, I put them under grow lights. According to Nancy Bubel’s “The New Seed-Starting Hand-

book,” parsley seeds and several other related plant seeds contain furanocoumarins — compounds that block germination, especially in the presence of sunlight. Poor guys got a double whammy, no soaking and 12 hours of grow lights. I chucked the first no-show containers after five weeks and started over following an old routine that I cut from Organic Gardening in 1997. The process was to fill, water and seed containers in the usual way, then wrap the trays in aluminum foil and put them in the freezer. After a few days, or when you remember a week later, move the trays to a warm spot but leave the foil covering on until the seeds have started to germinate, then remove the foil and place in full sunlight. It worked — that’s when I decided to buy Bubel’s book. According to Bubel, soaking the seeds for 48 hours, changing the water, twice will speed the approximate 21-day germination time. There’s an old saying that parsley has to go to the devil and back seven times before it will germinate. Why did I bother? Why does a mountain climber scale a mountain? Because it is there, and for me the seed packet was right at eye level on the seed rack — and it was such a pretty bright green on an overcast day.

Millions of us grew vegetables in 2009, and retail nurseries, publishers and manufacturers of garden products clearly believe the trend will not abate in 2010. In response to a potential audience that includes some 41 million households (according to stats from the Garden Writers Association Foundation), retailers are stocking aisles with new varieties of herbs and vegetables as well as compact selections suitable for small-space gardening. The range of containers in which to grow vegetables has expanded, too. From classical glazed and footed urns and upside-down tomato and pepper baskets to $5 party tubs drilled with drainage holes, mixed containers that supply food as well as ornamentation top today’s gardening trends.

Combo containers A Georgia landscape architect and author of four books on container gardening, Pamela Crawford, recently published a colorful how-to manual that addresses the questions of beginner gardeners as well as longtime gardeners intrigued by the idea of combo containers whose “thrillers” are vegetable plants. “Easy Container Combos: Vegetables & Flowers” (Color Garden Publishing, $19.95) is more, however, than an idea book. Crawford tested 1,768 plants in 221 containers; 1,376 failed. She faults her own lack of knowledge about vegetables — Crawford is a lifelong flower gardener — for most of the problems. But she also says she could find no research about how vegetable plants responded to being raised in containers. “Everything we did (for this project) was pioneering,” says Crawford. “I could find no information on the subject. The plant tags for vegetables don’t say how tall they get. There’s

BarkTurfSoil.com

no information about how big a pot you need. It’s a whole new concept.” Once Crawford teamed with Lois Chaplin of Alabama-based Bonnie Plants (which supplies vegetable transplants to some Home Depot and Lowe’s stores), her experiments went much better. The book details 18 common vegetables that are easy to grow in containers and seven that are difficult to cultivate in containers or just plain difficult. “I tried to pinpoint the vegetables that will be in garden centers this spring,” Crawford says, to coincide with the publication of her book.

Variety of planters The author shows you a wide variety of large, mature planters combining vegetables with flowering ornamentals, and she also shows you her mistakes — established pots that do not meet her beauty standards for container gardening. She supplies cultural information based on her own trials, including problems a home gardener may encounter and their remedies. Some standouts: a cherry tomato vine climbing an ornamental obelisk and underplanted with Dragon Wing begonias, heliotrope and sweet potato vines; a cool-season window box with ornamental cabbages, pansies and spiky juncus, of the rush family; and a 31-inch-tall, cobalt-blue glazed urn overflowing with a single summer squash plant, its yellow fruits dangling like Christmas ornaments. “It’s so much easier to grow vegetables in pots” in the typical city and suburban lots, Crawford says. “You don’t have the soilborne diseases, the drainage issues. My hope is that people who are starting out this spring will go on with it” next fall, next year and so on.

Now’s the time to start thinking pumpkins Spring Gardening By Nancy O’Donnell Albany Times Union

In 2007, the world’s largest pumpkin weighed in at a record 1,689 pounds. Last year, that record fell to a pumpkin grown by Christy Harp, of Jackson Township, Ohio, that weighed 1,725 pounds. Can the elusive 2,000-pound — 1-ton — pumpkin be on the horizon? Better yet, could you or someone you know be the gardener extraordinaire who cultivates this plump, prized globe? You never know unless you try. First up is the seed source. Harp’s seeds reportedly came from a past gargantuan named Jutras that weighed in at more than 1,300 pounds. To grow a monster, you will need to purchase seed from a past heavy hitter (Web sites that offer verified champion seeds include www .howarddill.com and www.pandp seed.com) or begin your own seed genealogy using Howard Dill’s Atlantic Giant Seeds, the forefather of all world champions. Next, consider starting them indoors roughly 2 to 3 weeks before the last spring frost. Soak seeds overnight in water to soften the seed coat. The next day, sow one seed per 4-inch peat pot, so you can plant it all directly into your garden. Keep the soil warmed to 85 to

90 degrees using heating cables placed under pots, or try placing the pots on top of your refrigerator. Plant the seed pointed end down, about 1 inch deep, in sterilized seed starting potting mix. Germination takes place in about three to five days. The seed covering should naturally fall from the leaf. If it remains attached, gently remove it; soaking beforehand should help eliminate this. Do you have to start them indoors? No. Most champion growers do, but if you aren’t able to, don’t let that spoil the fun.

Preparing the soil Soil preparation and drainage are key. You will need an area that’s a minimum of 20 by 25 feet in size, located in full sun, with a pH around 6.5 to 6.8 that has been organically enriched with aged manure, compost, leaves, straw (not hay, as it has weed seeds), grass clippings, cover crops — you know the drill. Hardening off and transplanting your seedlings outdoors is your next step. Again, the champs actually transplant their seedlings in the garden under removable, protective mini-greenhouse structures. Their goal is to gradually acclimate the plants in the garden

while protecting them from the elements for their first six to eight weeks outdoors. Wind, cool spring rains and soil, and chilly evening and daytime temperatures all take their toll on the seedling, slowing its jump-start on the season. Only plant one seedling per hill, as the plants get humongous and are heavy feeders. To make the hill, rake a 10-foot circular area, gradually raising the height so the center elevation is no more than 12 inches high. Fertilizing begins at transplant time and continues weekly throughout the season. Most growers use water-soluble, highphosphorus (second number) fertilizers the first four weeks, such as Miracle Gro (15-30-15).

Fertilizing Once the air temperature becomes consistently warm (about week five), you’ll notice the vine has begun to run. This is when vegetative growth takes over and you switch fertilizer gears to take advantage of the next growth cycle. Whether you use chemical or organic fertilizers is up to you. What you are looking for here is to optimize the massive plant growth, as the leaves alone will reach elephant-ear size. Weeks five to nine, incorporate

a granular, high-nitrogen (first number) fertilizer at a rate of half a pound per 100 square feet into the soil at the base of the plant and extend 3 feet out; 10-6-4, Epsoma’s Plant Tone 5-3-3 or Calcium Nitrate 16-0-0 are good options. From week five to harvest, champion growers will use fish emulsion, mixed per directions and applied weekly, as a soil drench and liquid seaweed, again mixed accordingly but applied as a foliar spray. Again, is this step necessary for a king pumpkin? Yes, but for one weighing a couple of hundred pounds, probably not. Weeks nine through 16, switch again, this time to an evenly balanced feed, such as granular 1010-10. Mix into the soil at the base out to 3 feet at the half-pound per 100-square-foot rate (be careful stepping; this gets tough now). Continue drench and foliar feeds. The home stretch, weeks 16 to 19, sees another change, this time to high potassium; the third number in the fertilizer makeup. Options include Muriate of Potash at 0-0-60, and Potassium Magnesium Sulphate at 0-0-22. Again, a visit to your neighborhood garden center will enlighten you tremendously on the fertilizers available. Just keep in mind whether you’re focusing on nitrogen, phosphorus or potassium.

Learn to smooth out all your ironing woes Choosing the right iron and board is only the beginning By Martha Stewart Martha Stewart Living

With the right equipment and some know-how, ironing is a cinch. Here are answers to some of your most “pressing” questions.

Q: A:

What is the best kind of iron to buy? If you iron infrequently, you don’t have to spend a lot. Here’s what to look for: • Good: aluminum or nonstick soleplate, spray mist. • Better: ceramic or stainless steel soleplate, steam burst, reservoir window, digital fabric selector. • Best: stainless steel soleplate, large water tank, numerous steam holes and steam bursts or continuous steam on all settings, high wattage.

Q: A:

Will any type of ironing board do? A well-made ironing board can save you time and trouble. Narrow boards are better for ironing shirts, and women’s and children’s clothes. They’re also easier to store. Wide boards are a good choice for men’s pants, tablecloths and sheets. Keep an eye out for these features: • Good: Sturdy (doesn’t wobble), rubber grips on feet and a secure cotton cover with pad. • Better: Adjustable height, metal-mesh board. • Best: Built-in outlet, iron rest, a garment rack, cord minder and wheels.

What features are important in an ironing-board cover? For steam irons, which let you produce bursts of steam by pressing a button, plain cotton covers are best. If you’re using an older iron or one without a steam feature, try a Teflon-coated-cotton cover. It will hold more heat, which is the key to getting out the wrinkles. Or use a siliconecoated cover; its smooth surface allows the iron to glide easily.

Q: A:

Which dial setting is best for ironing? Most irons use a universal dot system to indicate temperature: • Low (one dot): synthetics

On the Web To watch a video of Martha ironing a shirt perfectly, go to www.marthastewart.com/ironing. • Medium (two dots): silk and wool • High (three dots): cotton and linen

Q: A:

What should never be ironed? Some fabrics are prone to stretching, scorching or flattening under the heat and weight of an iron. Use a garment steamer on drapes, valances, duvet covers and silk ties. Fabrics such as velvet, knits and blends that contain stretch synthetics (such as spandex) usually require steam. To avoid creating a shine, iron dark clothing on the wrong side or with a press cloth, which serves as a protective barrier between the fabric and the iron.

Q: A:

Do buttons and other closures on clothes need to be protected? Not always, but it’s better to be safe than sorry. Ironing over any fasteners can damage the garment and the iron. The heat from your iron can crack or melt buttons and plastic closures. Any rough or sharp edges on the garment are liable to scratch your iron’s soleplate. Always close zippers before ironing, but make sure to leave buttons unbuttoned.

• Step 1: Working with a damp shirt, start at the collar, ironing the underside from ends to center. Repeat on front. • Step 2: Iron the inside of a cuff, then the inside of the cuff placket and the lower inside portion of the sleeve, above the cuff. Iron the outside of the cuff. Repeat on other sleeve. • Step 3: Hook one shoulder over the wide end of the board, and iron from the yoke (where the collar meets the shoulder) to the center of the shirt’s back. Repeat on other shoulder. • Step 4: Lay one sleeve on the board, and iron from shoulder to cuff; then iron the other side. Repeat on other sleeve. • Step 5: Iron the reverse side of the placket, and then the front and back panels of the shirt. Finally, touch up the collar if necessary.

Q: A:

What is the best way to handle clothing after iron-

ing?

Always hang a garment after ironing it. Let the clothing rest for at least five minutes, and up to 30 minutes before wearing it or putting it into the closet. By letting the fabric cool this way, new wrinkles are less likely to form.

Q: A:

What is the ideal way to store an iron and an ironing board? Rest the iron, which should be cool and empty of water, on its heel. You can buy hangers designed for storing an iron and board together on a wall or the back of a door.

Q: A:

Can an iron be cleaned?

Do some fabrics iron better when wet? Steam irons generally provide plenty of moisture, but as a rule, cotton, linen, rayon and silk should be damp when ironed.

Starch, water minerals and even detergent can cause buildup on an iron’s soleplate. Use a hot-iron cleaner that comes in a tube. To use it, squirt some onto an old cloth and iron over it. A paste of baking soda and water can remove most substances from a cool iron, but use this mixture sparingly because it can scratch the soleplate.

Sweet memories of this pie from a reader’s childhood By Julie Rothman The Baltimore Sun

Debbie Kobler, of Santa Rosa, Calif., was looking for the recipe for one of her favorite desserts from her childhood. She said her great-aunt used to make it for her and called it a Hula Moon Pie. She remembered that the pie had a graham-cracker crust and a che e sec a ke like filling made with crushed pineapple and vanilla pudding. Kay Bromley, of Berlin, Md., sent in a recipe that has a different name but sounds almost exactly like what Kobler was trying to locate. The only difference is that Bromley’s recipe calls for a shortbread crust instead of a graham-cracker one. This is a very easy, no-bake pie that you can make in less than 5 minutes. However, remember that you must allow enough time for the pie to set in the refrigerator, at least 2 hours, before serving. I tested the recipe using a storebought graham-cracker crust and found it to be quite delicious and refreshing.

A wedge of iceberg lettuce with blue cheese yogurt dressing is ready to eat. Romaine and iceberg lettuce are two standbys available nationwide, and are especially useful through winter and spring.

Charms of the loser lettuces By Mark Bittman

ICEBERG WITH BLUE CHEESE DRESSING

New York Times News Service

For many people, the world of lettuce has changed enormously in the last decade. The standard is no longer head lettuce, but mesclun, or “baby lettuce mix,” or whatever you choose to call the omnipresent pile of variably colored leaves, tissue-thin and textureless. (I’m aware there’s sometimes a bit of radicchio thrown in there for color and flavor, but the amount is insignificant.) The industrialization of the product has made it another of the overly expensive foods (as much as $12 a pound). Enter, or re-enter, the loser lettuces, romaine and — dare I suggest it — iceberg, two standbys available in every supermarket in the country, and are especially useful through winter and spring, as we wait for the first of the local greens (and local, real mesclun) to arrive. I confess that for perhaps two decades I had neglected the charms of these longtime, inexpensive friends. But sometime in the last couple of years, they have come to appeal to me more and more, and I have found myself eating them frequently. Finally, at a Parisian bistro one

Place each wedge of iceberg lettuce on a plate, drizzle with dressing and sprinkle with nuts if using. night last spring, I ordered lettuce soup, whose fresh bitterness would have taken me by surprise had I not known what I was eating. (The romaine garnish was another giveaway.) Because I was in Paris, the soup was prepared in a fashion that virtually guaranteed success, with top-notch stock and cream. Clearly, lettuce had dimensions that I had not yet explored. A couple of months later, as I was creating my own version of lettuce soup, I reflected on the advantages of loser lettuces: Romaine, at least, has more flavor

than the tamed version of mesclun that has gained dominance everywhere, except at the best farmers market stands and in the homes of gardeners. Quickly dressed with olive oil and lemon or sherry vinegar, it has become a staple of my diet. When I have the energy to make a real Caesar, I find it downright thrilling. Though iceberg is somewhat less assertive, it has more crunch than almost anything. And when you top it with a super-sharp blue cheese dressing or a classic Russian, it is utterly transformed.
