BIG NEWS FOR AREA SCHOOLS

3rd Sisters charter closes Bend teachers accept cuts By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

The parade of troubles for charter schools in Sisters is continuing, with Sisters AllPrep Web Academy closing and suddenly leaving parents unsure of what they will do this year or next. Krista Lynch decided this year to send her daughter Hannah to the academy after home-schooling her since kindergarten. But Hannah, a freshman, wasn’t able to finish this year’s requirements because she was given just a week’s notice of Friday’s closure. Now her mother is scrambling to find

a way for Hannah to finish freshman credits, and to decide on a school for next year. Home schooling is the leading candidate, Lynch said. “I think we’ll go back to what’s working before,” she said. The Web Academy joins the Sisters Charter Academy of Fine Arts and Sisters Early College Academy in closing in recent weeks, well before the end of the school year. All of the schools were run by EdChoices/AllPrep, a Clackamas-based company under investigation by the state departments of Education and Justice for questionable finances. See Charter / A4

Furlough days, no cost-of-living increase projected to save $4.5M next year; administrators also make concessions By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin

Bend-La Pine teachers and administrators have agreed to concessions for the 2010-11 school year, including furlough days and freezes to cost-of-living increases, to help bridge the district’s estimated $6 million budget gap. The board on Tuesday unanimously

approved the agreements, which are expected to save the district approximately $4.5 million. The additional funding gap will likely be closed using the same method district officials used during the 2009-10 school year, with less money going to textbooks and technology. For the 2010-11 school year, teachers

will defer the 3.5 percent cost-of-living increase that was part of their contract, and they will also take two furlough days. Of those two days, 1.5 are noninstructional and students will lose out on one half-day of school. They will also continue to limit tuition reimbursement to 50 percent, the same as during the 2009-10 school year; the freeze on $100 per-teacher professional development will also remain in place. Administrators and supervisors also made concessions. See Bend-La Pine / A4

Value-added tax: the only increase that just might fly

The astronauts aboard the orbiting shuttle-station complex celebrated two big anniversaries this week: Monday marked the 49th anniversary of the first human spaceflight — by Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin in 1961 — and the 29th anniversary of the first shuttle launch. “April 12th’s a really special day for astronauts,” said space shuttle Discovery’s commander, Alan Poindexter. Soon, the astronauts will observe a more somber day: when the space shuttle fleet is retired. NASA has begin weighing 21 bids from visitors’ centers, science museums and educational institutions eager to host one of the three aging space shuttles that will be retired later this year. President Barack Obama could announce the destination of the first retired shuttle as early as Thursday when he travels to Florida’s Kennedy Space Center, where he plans to describe his vision for long-term manned space exploration. Competitors to host one of the 76-ton shuttles include natural candidates like Johnson Space Center in Houston, but also two museums in the Northwest: the Museum of Flight in Seattle and the Evergreen Aviation & Space Museum in McMinnville.

Asante Riverwind, 57, the Sierra Club’s forest organizer for Eastern Oregon, stands next to a ponderosa pine stump at the edge of Glaze Meadow on Monday. The tree was cut down as part of a U.S. Forest Service thinning project, which Riverwind said damaged the wildlife habitat.

By Kate Ramsayer The Bulletin

BLACK BUTTE RANCH — A forest restoration project touted as a model of collaboration now has two local environmental groups at odds. Oregon Wild helped design the U.S. Forest Service’s Glaze Meadow project with the goal of creating healthy, fire-resistant ecosystems while avoiding environmental lawsuits. But when Asante Riverwind, Eastern Oregon forest organizer with the Sierra Club’s Juniper Chapter, saw the first on-the-ground results this winter, he said he was dismayed to see big trees cut down along the meadow’s edge. “I was really upset, frankly,” Riverwind said. The Glaze Meadow project includes efforts to thin out some trees to give the remaining

pines room and nutrients to grow, while leaving clumps and patches of denser trees for wildlife cover. Although it involves some commercial timber harvest, the project also calls for crews to thin some areas by hand, mow brush and set prescribed fires. With work on another side of the meadow slated to continue next winter, weather permitting, Riverwind is pushing the conservation group Oregon Wild and others to revise the plans and not cut bigger trees in the dense stands along the grassy meadow. But Tim Lillebo, with Oregon Wild, said the planners did consider Riverwind’s recommendations. And although they accepted some ideas, by leaving more patches of trees at the meadow’s edge, in the end planners decided that to create a more natural habitat, they had to cut down some of the bigger trees.

WASHINGTON — Americans this week might be filing the lowest taxes they will ever see again. Experts say big tax hikes are inevitable, likely a European-style value-added tax, which resembles a sales tax on steroids. April Paul Volcker, an economic adviser to President Barack Thursday Obama, let the VAT cat out of the bag last Tax Day’s week when he almost here said a valueadded tax is Don’t forget to file less “toxic” by Thursday. For information on than it once extensions and was. Obama budget chief payment options, Peter Orszag visit www.irs.gov. quickly backtracked by telling the Economic Club of Washington that the former Federal Reserve chief was not speaking for the administration. Volcker’s comment was a classic Washington gaffe defined as a politician accidentally telling the truth. The budget arithmetic is ruthless. The federal government is adding an average of $1 trillion in debt each year. Neither party has a plan even to stabilize the deficit. Many experts fear a looming crisis that will force action. In the Senate, Ron Wyden, DOre., and Judd Gregg, R-N.H., are pushing to close loopholes in the federal income tax code in an effort to forestall a value-added tax. But the VAT discussion picked up momentum after Volcker’s comments when Douglas Elmendorf, director of the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office, disclosed to reporters that he had directed his staff to analyze how a VAT would work. “Be prepared for a tax increase in the range of $750 billion a year in today’s dollars,” said Bruce Bartlett, a former official in the Reagan and George H.W. Bush administrations. That amount assumes equally large spending cuts that would slash programs much as state and local governments are slashing services now. See Taxes / A4

Climate bill to debut Energy is the focus of new legislation – and offshore drilling is sure to be in the spotlight

Open for exploration On March 31, President Barack Obama announced new plans to drill for oil and natural gas off America's coasts. Alaska's Bristol Bay and southern Florida were excluded from drilling, as were the Oregon, Washington and California coasts, through 2017.

By Jennifer A. Dlouhy Hearst News Service

WASHINGTON — Offshore drilling is emerging as a major flashpoint in congressional climate change negotiations as pressure builds on senators to produce an energy bill before the Senate’s schedule is consumed by a Supreme Court confirmation and election-year politics. Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., said he and the other senators drafting the legislation — Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., and Joseph Lieberman, I-Ct., — are on track to release a specific plan by Earth Day on April 22. They hope to propose legislation that would cap some greenhouse gas emissions, boost domestic oil and gas production and spur new nuclear power — all while still attracting the support of at least 60 senators who would be needed to pass the measure. “I feel very optimistic about the progress that we’re making. I think that things are coming together,” Kerry said. But, he added: “There are still some hurdles.” One of the potential obstacles: Whether to expand on President Barack Obama’s proposal for eventual drilling along part of the East Coast by giving coastal states more power over oil and gas drilling in nearby waters. Senate climate bill negotiators are mulling a plan to give all coastal states with nearby drilling a share of the royalties that energy producers pay the federal government for oil and gas extracted from the outer continental shelf. They also are considering provisions that would give states much more control over what happens near their coastlines. But it could be tough for the climate change negotiators to define a boundary that will please everyone — from oil-patch Democrats Mark Begich of Alaska and Mary Landrieu of Louisiana to New Jersey environmentalists Frank Lautenberg and Robert Menendez. “Some people want to drill everywhere in the world without regard to anything,” Kerry said. “Other people don’t want any drilling. And you’ve got everything in between. We are trying to do what we think is responsible and achievable.” The negotiators will be locked in meetings with industry groups and other senators this week to fashion legislation that could be debated by the full Senate later this spring. Sen. Robert Casey, D-Pa., noted the bill supporters have “a limited window” to gain traction before the energy debate is crowded out by other items on the Senate’s todo list, including financial regulatory reform and the confirmation of a new Supreme Court member

BAIKALSK, Russia — The future of 20 percent of the world’s supply of pure fresh water is in jeopardy because a surprise decree by Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin will allow a heavily polluting pulp mill to reopen on the southern shore of Lake Baikal in southern Siberia. Magnificent, almost pristine Lake Baikal, the “Pearl of Siberia,” is a source of national pride and awe, an icon for the Russian environmental movement, a World Heritage Site and the only natural area in Russia that’s protected by its own law. Many locals consider the enormous lake sacred. Between its size, its 5,380-foot depth and its remarkable biodiversity, the lake’s fate has global significance. The Baikalsk Pulp and Paper Mill is the only industrial en-

Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. needs to come before midJuly. “When you are getting into July, it’s getting very difficult in any year — but especially an election year.” The House passed its own Sen.

Joseph and empower Lieberman, companies to I-Ct. buy and sell permits to release the substances. But Senate negotiators are headed in a different direction.

terprise that dumped waste directly into the lake, and the fight against its construction gave birth to the Russian environmental movement and emboldened public figures to speak out against the Soviet state. Using chlorine to produce bleached cellulose, BPPM discharged as much as 4 million cubic feet of toxic waste into Lake Baikal annually. More than 6 million tons of solid waste accumulated in huge open-air pits near Baikal’s shore, in an active earthquake zone. The estimated costs of cleaning it up run into the millions of dollars. Last summer, Putin came to Baikal and took a dive to the bottom of the world’s deepest lake in a mini-submarine. Upon emerging, Putin declared Baikal to be “in good condition.” Then, however, he declared that the lake was almost unpolluted and hinted that the shuttered mill might reopen.

U.S. studies future of Alaska drilling WASHINGTON — The Interior Department on Tuesday launched research studies that could dictate the future of oil and gas drilling in the Beaufort and Chukchi seas north of Alaska. Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said the research by the U.S. Geological Survey “will help us better understand the resources and challenges” of Arctic drilling. Under the research plan, the U.S. Geological Survey will take the lead in reviewing existing information about the seas, including studies already conducted by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, the National Science Foundation and other scientific groups. The USGS faces an Oct. 1 deadline for finishing its review. Survey director Marcia McNutt said the agency “is going to examine and summarize what information is currently available and where knowledge gaps exist” about the “resiliency” of life in the region and “what is known about the effects of exploration activities on marine animals.” The agency also will evaluate existing research on the best techniques for responding to oil spills in icy regions and impacts of onshore and offshore activity related to oil and gas development, McNutt said. — New York Times News Service

Climate treaty realities push leaders to trim agendas By Juliet Eilperin The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — As prospects for a binding global climate treaty this year have evaporated, leaders and environmental advocates have focused their efforts on reaching agreement on a few top priorities, including preserving tropical forests and helping developing countries cope with climate change. The U.N.-sponsored climate talks in Cancun, Mexico, in December are increasingly viewed as an interim step to a final deal. Many heads of state and activists had hoped they could produce a successor agreement to the 1997 Kyoto Protocol. The climate pact’s first period ends in 2012. Instead, negotiators have begun to focus on what U.N. Foundation President Timothy Wirth calls “the building blocks” of a global climate strategy. In an interview Monday, Norwegian Prime Minister Jens Stoltenberg said that it was ambitious to include everything from emissions targets to funding for preventing deforestation. “We cannot expect all of this in an agreement covering all issues. But what I hope is we are able to make some progress on some issues.” U.S. special envoy for climate change Todd Stern said the administration was focused on bringing essential elements for an eventual treaty “to some level of closure” by the end of the year.

T S Muslims wary of census data use

GOP salvo kicks off battle over financial reform

NUCLEAR SUMMIT

New York Times News Service

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Drawing the lines for a fierce electionyear battle over regulating the nation’s financial system, Senate Republicans on Tuesday insisted that legislation proposed by Democrats and the White House would only encourage future taxpayer bailouts of big banks. The Senate Republican leader, Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, criticized the Democrats’ bill to regulate Wall Street as arrogant and partisan, echoing the recent health care fight in which he accused Democrats of carrying out a government takeover. “We cannot allow endless taxpayer-funded bailouts,” McConnell said in a floor speech. “The fact is this bill wouldn’t solve the problems that led to the financial crisis. It would make them worse.” McConnell’s comments offered a first glimpse at a Republican strategy that is carefully calibrated for a highly competitive midterm election year. In many ways it is a political high-wire act, as the Republicans seek to oppose the Democrats’ bill, while not appearing to side with the banks at a time when popular anger at Wall Street is running high. In doing so, McConnell acknowledged his own support for the $700 billion bailout in 2008 when the Bush administration warned of an imminent crisis.

RALEIGH, N.C. — Nine years of scrutiny have made some American Muslims wary of the federal government, and that has the U.S. Census bureau working to make sure its crucial survey doesn’t become a casualty of fear. Muslims are not the only group the agency has identified as needing special attention, but they may be among the likeliest to shun the mail-in questionnaires. America’s Muslim population includes large numbers of recent immigrants, and community leaders say nearly a decade of bearing the brunt of the country’s post Sept. 11 terrorism fears have taken their toll. “You still have people in a kind of paranoid state of mind,” said Khalilah Sabra, director of the Muslim American Society’s Freedom Foundation in North Carolina. That might be particularly true in the Raleigh-Durham area, she said, where seven local Muslim men were arrested in July and charged with plotting to travel overseas to carry out acts of terrorism. The census is prohibited from sharing information that could identify individuals, including with other federal agencies or law enforcement. Census workers also take an oath, swearing for life to protect the confidentiality of data, with a possible five years in prison for breaching that trust. Technically, no Muslims will be counted at all. Also absent from the count will be Christians, Jews, Zoroastrians and religious believers and unbelievers of all kinds, because religion is not a category tracked by the census.

Obama plans bipartisan meeting on court vacancy By Michael Muskal Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — President Barack Obama will meet with senators from both parties April 21 to discuss how to handle the upcoming vacancy on the Supreme Court, the White House announced Tuesday. Scheduled to attend are Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev.; Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.; Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt.; and the ranking Republican on the committee, Jeff Sessions of Alabama. They are expected to discuss the procedures for the confirmation hearings expected over the summer so that the new justice can take a seat on the bench by the fall term.

Democrats eager to move stalled judicial nominees WASHINGTON — Senate Democratic leaders say they will push the stalled confirmations of 22 federal judges before a possible summer battle over an as yet unnamed replacement for retiring Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., will “rev it up” to force confirmation votes in coming weeks and may keep the Senate in session on weekends if Republicans try to block action, said Sen.

In the center of it all: President Barack Obama had called the 47-nation summit to focus world attention on the threat of nuclear terror, a peril he termed the greatest threat facing all nations.

Obama: Summit made world more secure WASHINGTON — World leaders endorsed President Barack Obama’s call for securing all nuclear materials from terrorists within four years at a 47-nation summit on Tuesday. They offered few specifics, but Obama declared “the American people will be safer and the world will be more secure” as a result. Obama had called the summit to focus world attention on keeping dangerous materials out of terrorist hands. A terrorist group in possession of plutonium no bigger than an apple could detonate a device capable of inflicting hundreds of thousands of casualties, he said. The summit countries said they would cooperate more deeply with the United Nations and the International Atomic Energy Agency. They also said they would share information on nuclear detection and ways to prevent nuclear trafficking. As an example of the collective action called for by Obama, officials of the U.S., Canada and Mexico announced an agreement to work together, along with the U.N., to convert the highly-enrich uranium in Mexico’s research reactor to a fuel that would be harder to use in the manufacturing of a nuclear weapon. — The Associated Press “It is a vital national security interest of the United States to reduce these conflicts because whether we like it or not, we remain a dominant military superpower,” he said. “And when conflicts break out, one way or another, we get pulled into them. And that ends up costing us significantly in terms of both blood and treasure.” If there is an Obama doctrine

emerging, it is one much more realpolitik than his predecessor’s, focused on relations with traditional great powers and relegating issues like human rights and democracy to second-tier concerns. He has generated much more good will around the world after years of tension with Bush, and yet he does not seem to have made strong personal friendships with many world leaders.

Influential union president to retire Andy Stern, the nation’s most politically influential union president, will announce plans this week to retire, several union officials said. Stern, as president of the Service Employees International Union has been labor’s most electrifying — and polarizing — leader. His likely successor, Anna Burger, the union’s secretarytreasurer and Stern’s longtime No. 2, helped devise the strategies that made the service employees what many politicians say is the nation’s most politically potent union. The SEIU boasts that it spent $85 million in the 2008 cam-

Arizona passes illegal immigration bill DENVER — Arizona lawmakers on Tuesday approved what foes and supporters agree is the toughest measure in the country against illegal immigrants, directing local police to determine whether people are in the country legally. The measure, long sought by opponents of illegal immigration, passed 35-21 in the state House of Representatives. Republican Gov. Jan Brewer is expected to sign the bill. Police were deeply divided on the matter, with police unions

backing it but the state police chief’s association opposing the bill, contending it could erode trust with immigrants who could be potential witnesses.

Michelle Obama greets Haitian schoolchildren Tuesday in Port-au-Prince. The first lady made a surprise visit to the ruins of the Haitian capital, a high-profile reminder that hundreds of thousands remain in desperate straits three months after the earthquake. She and Jill Biden, the vice president’s wife, took a helicopter tour of Port-au-Prince, where many people are still homeless. “The devastation is definitely powerful,” Obama said. This is her first solo trip as first lady, and she flew on to Mexico City on Tuesday night for a two-day visit to launch an international campaign encouraging young people to become involved in their communities. The U.S. has provided nearly $1 billion in humanitarian aid to Haiti and pledged more than $1 billion more to the poorest country in the hemisphere.

Taxes Continued from A1 “Anybody with the slightest familiarity with real-world politics knows we need some kind of deal to both raise taxes and cut spending in about a 50-50 ratio,” Bartlett said. Elmendorf said the study was not requested by any particular member of Congress but, rather, was part of what he said was CBO’s mission to anticipate possible policy options.

Offset the deficit Despite Volcker’s comments, a value-added tax remains plenty toxic politically. It is levied at each stage of production, unlike a sales tax, which is paid at the cash register. It can raise vast sums and is far less visible to consumers than a sales tax. Every 1 percentage point raises roughly $100 billion, so a 10 percent value-added tax could erase deficits for now. Most countries, from China and India to Australia and New Zealand, use value-added taxes. VAT rates in Europe range from 6.5 percent in Switzerland to 25 percent in Denmark and Sweden. “There’s no way we’re going to be able to pay our bills without” a VAT, said Len Burman, an economist at Syracuse University and former director of the center-left Tax Policy Center. “It could come about in a really humiliating way, when our foreign lenders say they’re not going to lend us any more money unless we get our finances in order very quickly, in which case we’d have to put a VAT in place.”

What about the income tax? Interestingly, conservatives used to like value-added taxes because they tax consumption, reward saving and are broadly distributed. Liberals generally hate them for the same reason: They hit the poor and middle class harder than the wealthy. “We can’t continue to live beyond our means, we can’t continue to borrow from the Chinese and the Saudis, and even if we could, I don’t think we want to give them that level of control over us,” said Charles McLure, who helped develop President Ronald Reagan’s proposals for the 1986 bipartisan tax reform and is now at the Hoover Institution at Stanford University. “There are not that many expenditures you could cut that would make a big difference, unless you want to renege on the debt, Social Security or Medicare or cut defense a lot,” McLure said. “Once you look at the numbers, I think you’ve got to do something on the tax side.” Many economists agree with McLure that a value-added tax is preferable to raising the overloaded income tax. Obama wants to raise the top income tax rate from 35 percent to 40

VAT: A sales tax on steroids Here’s an example of how a value-added tax could work, keeping in mind that it is a sales tax on the difference between what a company pays for raw materials to create a product and the value of the finished product. In this example of the manufacturing of a table, a 5 percent value-added tax will be applied several times — and ultimately passed to the consumer in the form of higher retail prices. Raw materials: A timber company sells harvested timber to a sawmill for $200 a truckload. A mining company sells ore to a nuts and bolts manufacturer for $20. Lumber and hardware: The sawmill cuts the timber into lumber and sells it to a table company for $400. The nuts and bolts manufacturer produces and then sells nuts and bolts to the table company for $40. • The nuts and bolts company is taxed 5 percent on the added value of $20, for a tax of $1. The sawmill is taxed 5 percent on $200, the value added to the timber, for a tax of $10. Making tables: Using raw materials worth $440 (lumber bought for $400 and nuts and bolts bought for $40), the table company will make five tables sold for $1,500 ($300 each). The table company is taxed 5 percent of $1,060 (the value added), resulting in a tax of $53. Total value-added tax: $10 (lumber) + $1 (nuts, bolts) + $53 (for five tables) = $64 Total tax on each table: $12.80 percent. That’s in addition to an expanded 3.8 percent Medicare payroll tax on high earners to help pay for the new health care law. Conservatives insist the budget problem is caused by high spending, not low taxes. Liberals should start cutting farm subsidies or rolling back Medicare for the wealthy to protect the social programs they hold dear, said Chris Edwards, director of tax policy at the libertarian Cato Institute. “When the chaos comes, all kinds of stuff will be cut,” he said. “Enlightened liberals should see the coming budget crisis is not going to be to their benefit.” To forestall a value-added tax, both sides are looking at income tax loopholes they want to close. Wyden and Gregg’s tax reform bill would eliminate some of these breaks but not the costliest ones, such as the tax exclusion for health insurance and the mortgage interest deduction. Their plan does not raise revenue because it also would lower tax rates. “We wanted a politically viable vehicle,” Gregg said.

It’s not the first time the two groups have butted heads on forestry issues recently. Lillebo and Oregon Wild joined representatives from Ochoco Lumber to support Oregon Sen. Ron Wyden’s legislation involving Central and Eastern Oregon forests, which calls for restrictions on cutting old-growth trees, but more thinning and restoration efforts that cut smaller trees. The local Sierra Club did not support the legislation. Riverwind previously told The Bulletin the bill should have addressed postfire salvage logging and that the large-scale restoration projects could cause more harm than good. For the Glaze project, Riverwind said he went on several informational field trips to the site, but didn’t scrutinize the plans as much as he would other Forest Service projects. Instead, he said, for the most part, he deferred to Oregon Wild during the planning process. “I don’t think we’ll do that again,” he said this week. “You can’t put the trees back up; you don’t have room for mistakes.”

Possible consequences Cutting big trees along the meadow and opening up areas means nesting birds could be more vulnerable to raptors swooping in, and that deer and elk lose places to hide their young, he said. He recommended that the agency not cut any trees in the area that were bigger than 14 inches across, but on a recent trip to the site pointed out several areas where trees bigger than a foot

Charter Continued from A1 EdChoices/AllPrep runs schools in six school districts in Oregon, including Sisters. The Sisters Charter Academy of Fine Arts, which shared a principal with the Web Academy, closed in March after falling $8,100 behind on rent. Sisters Early College Academy had also suffered financial troubles recently. Its students attended community colleges around the state, but the school failed to pay their tuition as it was supposed to. As of March 25, the school still owed $10,000 to various community colleges. The Web Academy was scheduled to close at the end of the current school year because the Sisters School Board decided to end its charter agreement amid concerns about shifting enrollment and financial stability. As of March 19, the Web Academy had 71 students, just 14 of whom were from the Sisters School District, according to Margaret Bates, the district’s director of special programs. The school, which opened in 2008, had to close because it ran out of money, according to a letter Principal Teresa Schneiderman sent to parents. “Because of our financial situation, we do not have the funding to continue to operate the school for the rest of this school year,” Schneiderman wrote. In the April 6 letter, Schneiderman described students’ options. Students could go to a district school, another charter, a private school or be home-schooled. Schneiderman did not return calls seeking comment. Bates said the district found out last week about the charter’s closing. The district will accommodate any students who want to go to its schools, though many were home-schooled before attending the Web Academy, Bates said. “It still remains a public school choice for parents to enroll their students (in-district),” Bates said. Several Bend-La Pine students also attended the Web Academy. Deputy Superintendent John Rexford urged the parents of those students to call the district office. The district, he said, would work to help those students finish their credits. But first the district needs to know how far along each student was in the courses. “I think it’d be very much case-

wide had been felled. “There was no science to take this tree,” he said. But Lillebo said the research shows that opening up areas along the meadow could help a rare but native plant called Peck’s penstemon, which needs soil disturbance, as well as wildlife like the white-headed woodpecker. Some areas around the meadow were left thick with trees, he said, but the goal of the project was to expand clearings in other areas to help the species that need that type of habitat, which would naturally be created by fire. “I don’t agree that we could have accomplished what we wanted to … if we had only stuck with the 14 (inch limit),” Lillebo said.

Collaborative project Maret Pajutee, Sisters Ranger District ecologist, said one of the goals of the project is to spark discussions between interested parties, and then keep that conversation going. “This project, the whole point of it was to try to break barriers of mistrust, and work with diverse viewpoints,” she said. “And this is just continuing the process.” But not everyone is going to agree on every point, she said. “It’s collaborative; it’s not necessarily consensus,” Pajutee said. “We’re hoping that everyone can live with it and they understand some of the thinking and the reasons that went into something new.” The Forest Service could consider making changes to the project if different groups have concerns, said District Ranger Bill Anthony — but at this point he hasn’t heard complaints from others. But Riverwind said he still hoped changes could be made before the other areas of the meadow’s edge were cut. “We felt that a lot of what we said was ignored,” he said. “And had it been incorporated from the get-go, we’d have a more intact area.”

Quake in China kills 300 Los Angeles Times An earthquake that Chinese officials measured at magnitude 7.1 rocked a remote, mostly Tibetan-populated county in the western province of Qinghai early this morning, killing at least 300 people and injuring 8,000. The quake struck 20 miles from the county seat of Yushu, where it toppled houses, an elementary school, part of a Buddhist tower in a public park and seriously damaged the main hospital in town, officials told Chinese media.

Bend-La Pine Continued from A1 They have eliminated their cost-of-living increase for the 2010-11 school year; the increase they deferred during this school year, which would have been 2.8 percent, has been reduced to 2 percent. In addition, administrative travel has been cut 50 percent, as has tuition reimbursement. Superintendent Ron Wilkinson told the school board in February the district will operate with a roughly $120 million budget in 2010-11 and would need to make about $6 million in cuts. The cuts come after the Legislature provided the full $6 billion it promised K-12 education at the start of the 2009-11 biennium; that’s less than the $6.2 billion the state provided to school districts in 2007-09, which means districts around the state have had to make cuts. Last spring, Bend-La Pine Schools faced a $10 million shortfall, eliminating 46 teaching positions and 16 staff positions by not renewing tempo-

“Many are buried in the collapsed houses,” Zhuo Huaxia, a local Tibetan official, told the official New China News Agency. “There are still lots of others who are injured and being treated at local hospitals.” Yushu has a mostly Tibetan population of 100,000 people, many of them herdsmen. Numerous houses made of mud and logs collapsed during the quake and its aftershocks. “The death toll may rise further as lots of houses collapsed,” an army official told the China Daily.

rary contracts and not hiring for some open positions. It also reduced various programs. For the 2009-10 school year, teachers in the district agreed to defer a 3.5 percent cost-of-living increase for six months, to cut 2.5 noninstructional days and to reduce tuition reimbursements and professional development funds. Other staff deferred their cost-of-living increases as well. Wilkinson said he is pleased with district staff’s continued help in bridging the budget gap. “Unfortunately the economy and the financial collapse got in the way, and … we’ve been trying to find a way to modify our financial commitments in ways that allow us to move forward while still honoring the work of our employees,” he said. Classified employees like bus drivers are due to begin bargaining their union contract in the coming weeks. Any concessions from that group will be determined during those negotiations. Sheila G.

by-case in assessing where they are,” Rexford said. “Were they mid-course? Had they just completed portions?” Sisters School Board Chairwoman Christine Jones said the board’s decision to end the charter was unfortunately validated by the current situation. The board had agreed to let the Web Academy finish out the year, but it didn’t make it that far. “It’s just disappointing that the financial collapse was such that they couldn’t remain open until the end of the year,” Jones said.

Shuttles Continued from A1 McMinnville is where the socalled “Spruce Goose” flying boat was built during World War II. Other candidates include the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force at Wright-Patterson AFB in Dayton, Ohio, near the Wright Brothers’ home; Plant 42 in Palmdale, Calif., where the shuttles were assembled; and the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in New York City, centered on an aircraft carrier that plucked early astronauts’ capsules from the sea. NASA has declined to release a complete list of aspirants. Yet the legalistic, five-page list of requirements for prospective recipients seems designed, at least in part, to forestall accusations of political favoritism. The space agency insists that it will make “placement decisions that are determined to be in the best interest of the American taxpayer.” Recipients of the three shuttles will be required to pay NASA $28.8 million to prepare and deliver the shuttles to their location, in addition to raising tens of millions of additional funds to build the climate-controlled exhibition space required by the space agency. “These are going to be like the Mona Lisa,” says space historian John Logsdon, referring to Leonardo da Vinci’s iconic 1506 por-

Brown passes on Boston tea rally By Glen Johnson The Associated Press

BOSTON — When the Tea Party Express pulls into the city where the conservative movement got its name, the crowd will be as notable for who is not there as who is. Sarah Palin is the keynote speaker at today’s rally, but Republican Sen. Scott Brown — whose January election the movement Sen. Scott claims as its Brown proudest accomplishment — is skipping the event. Officially, he’s too busy with his congressional duties — but Brown also kept the movement at a respectful distance during his upset campaign to succeed the late Democrat Ted Kennedy. If he gets too close, the freshman senator, who’s still getting used to his national profile, risks being aligned with the tea party’s more radical elements, which have questioned the legitimacy of everything from President Barack Obama’s U.S. birthplace to his college degree. “His ‘business in Congress’ is getting re-elected in 2012, and to do that, he needs to present a moderate image. Going to a tea party rally is about the last thing he needs,” said Jeffrey Berry, a political science professor at Brown’s alma mater, Tufts University. “Brown doesn’t want to turn his back on his potential supporters, but he doesn’t want any photographs in the midst of an overly enthusiastic or bombastic event,” the professor added. The rally, being held in the shadow of the Statehouse on Boston Common, is forecast to attract 10,000 people. It will be the next-to-last event in the 20day, 47-city Tea Party Express tour concluding Thursday in Washington. Palin spoke on the first day in Searchlight, Nev., hometown of Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, a Democratic target of the movement. Her visit to Boston brings her to the site of the original Tea Party in 1773, where British opponents rallied against taxation without representation. Two others are embracing the modern tea party movement, which questions the Washington establishment, without reservation. Conservative talk show host Michael Reagan, son of Republican icon Ronald Reagan, spoke Tuesday at a tea party rally in Jefferson City, Mo. Nebraska Gov. Dave Heineman was headlining at a tea party rally Tuesday night in his own capital city, Lincoln.

would be made by early May. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., said putting a shuttle at the Intrepid museum in Manhattan would give the shuttle a proper display in “the top tourist destination in America.” Sen. Charles Schumer,

Deposed leader offers to resign By Michael Schwirtz New York Times News Service

BISHKEK, Kyrgyzstan — The deposed president of Kyrgyzstan said Tuesday that he would formally step down if there were guarantees of safety for him and his family, speaking after the interim government stripped him of immunity and threatened to arrest him. The leader of the interim government, Roza Otunbayeva, said last week that if President Kurmanbek Bakiyev resigned, the government would “guarantee his security, only his personal security.” She confirmed on Tuesday that the guarantee did not extend to his family and rela-

tives, some of whom have been accused of corruption. “We will provide security guarantees that he’s entitled to under the Constitution,” she said in an interview with The Associated Press. Some members of the provisional government did not approve of the idea of the president escaping prosecution for the deaths of more than 80 people in riots last Wednesday. “We do not promise Bakiyev or anybody that if he gives up power, there will not be charges brought against him,” said Topchubek Turgunaliyev, a member of the provisional government. “Bakiyev’s crimes are simply beyond measure.”

U.S. base to stay, new leader says BISHKEK, Kyrgyzstan — Kyrgyzstan’s interim leader told The Associated Press in an interview Tuesday that her government will extend for a year the lease of a U.S. air base key to the war in Afghanistan. Roza Otunbayeva said the agreement allowing the U.S. to use the Manas air base will be prolonged after the current deal expires in July. The base provides refueling flights for warplanes over Afghanistan and serves as a major transit hub for troops. — The Associated Press

Thai protesters flood streets with squirt guns By Seth Mydans New York Times News Service

BANGKOK — With soldiers back in their barracks three days after a convulsion of political violence, anti-government demonstrators took up squirt guns in central Bangkok on Tuesday to dedicate themselves to the start of the annual water festival. Scenes of soaked and laughing Thais alternated on television with terrifying images of the late-night battles on Saturday filled with gunfire, the flash of explosions and the screams of wounded soldiers being dragged to safety. The splashing and singing had the look of a victory celebration as the red-shirted protesters, who have been demanding that the government step aside and call new elections, reveled in their impunity; the paralyzed government appears unable to wait them out or to stop them by force. On Tuesday, it found itself on the defensive after an Election Commission recommendation that the governing party be dissolved for electoral fraud and a statement by the chief of the armed forces that called into question his loyalty. The protesters said they would push forward today with more marches and more challenges to government control in a monthlong campaign that, after withstanding the military’s attempt to

Red Cross staff kidnapped in Congo

WARSAW, Poland — Thousands of grieving mourners tossed flowers on a slow-moving hearse and joined an enormous viewing line at the Presidential Palace to pay their respects Tuesday to Polish President Lech Kaczynski and his wife as their bodies lay in state. Kaczynski and his wife, Maria Kaczynska, were among 96 people killed Saturday in a plane crash in western Russia. Investigators are pointing to human error as the cause. Mourners knelt, prayed and cried before the first couple’s coffins in the palace’s Columned Hall, where the president appointed and dismissed governments. The line to get in swelled to over half a mile. In Washington, the White House announced that President Barack Obama would travel to Poland to attend the funeral. Russian President Dmitri Medvedev and French President Nicolas Sarkozy are also expected to attend.

PARIS — The International Committee of the Red Cross said Tuesday that an “armed group” had kidnapped eight of its staff members in the South Kivuregion of the Democratic Republic of Congo. In a statement on its Web site, the organization said from its headquarters in Geneva that seven of the people seized were Congolese and one was Swiss. The Red Cross statement said the hostages had been held since Friday by a group called the Mai Mai Yakutumba. The Red Cross said it maintained a permanent presence in South Kivu in the towns of Bukavu, Uvira, Marungu and Fizi.

Thailand is unusual in that it has been the scene of competing “people power” campaigns over the past three years — the Red Shirts and Yellow Shirts — that

have sought to bring down governments from opposite sides of the political divide. On Monday, the army chief, Gen. Anupong Paochinda, seemed to back the demands of the Red Shirts when he said it might be necessary to dissolve parliament

and call a new election to resolve the crisis. The general had been seen as a supporter of the government but had remained silent throughout the protests and had not moved forcefully to put in effect a state of emergency declared by the prime minister last week.

PESHAWAR, Pakistan — An airstrike by Pakistan’s military killed as many as 75 civilians in northwestern Pakistan over the weekend, according to a government official and villagers from the area. A military official confirmed some civilian deaths, but said the toll had been far lower. The military contends that the Saturday bombing, in the remote Tirah Valley area near the border with Afghanistan, was aimed at bunkers and hide-outs that militants had made there. Villagers, for their part, said they had built the bunkers to defend against militants. A second military official said that the military was expected to issue its own version of the event later. The death toll is also in dispute. The military official said the number of the dead was “very few,” and added that at least 30 militants had also been killed in the airstrike. But villagers as well as a government official said as many as 75 civilians may have been killed.

Carter: Sudan vote key to referendum JUBA, Sudan — Former president Jimmy Carter says that while Sudan’s first multiparty elections in 24 years have “serious faults,” they are vital to ensuring Southern Sudan is able to hold a referendum on independence next year. Carter, 85, is heading an observer mission for the Carter Center that he set up with his wife Jimmy Carter Rosalynn. The elections, which entered their third day Tuesday, have been marred by boycotts by the main opposition parties and delays caused by the late arrival of ballot papers, many at the wrong polling stations, and missing names on voter lists. President Umar al-Bashir, 66, who has been charged by the International Criminal Court with responsibility for war crimes in the western Darfur region, is likely to win the vote because of a boycott by his main opposition challengers. The elections and the referendum scheduled for January are part of the U.S.brokered 2005 Comprehensive Peace Agreement that ended a 21-year war between north and south Sudan. — From wire reports

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF IdaTech loses appeal on energy tax credits Bend-based IdaTech announced Tuesday that it lost its appeal to the Oregon Department of Energy for the reinstatement of a business energy tax credit. The company, which designs and manufactures fuel cell-powered generators, said the decision had already been anticipated from an operations standpoint and won’t materially affect the company’s earnings guidance. IdaTech declined to comment further. In a Feb. 8 letter to the department, the company stated that the loss of the tax credit “effectively cripples the company and places great doubt on the rationale for remaining in Oregon,” according to The Bulletin’s archives. The department had previously notified the company that $20 million in projects submitted for the tax credit were ineligible and IdaTech would lose $5 million in tax credits as a result. IdaTech employs about 90 people in Bend.

State warns of phony insurance policies Oregon’s Department of Consumer and Business Services issued a warning about door-to-door salespeople who are using the federal government’s health care reform legislation to pressure people into buying insurance. The department said Tuesday people peddling phony policies nationally are claiming to represent the federal government. In some states, people are selling what they call the “ObamaCare Insurance Policy,” the department said. Some salespeople are licensed agents telling people to enroll in policies because of a limited enrollment period that, in reality, does not exist, the department said. The Department of Consumer and Business Services Insurance Division plans to soon have information on its Web site about how the federal health care reform impacts Oregonians.

By Reed Abelson This could be one glimpse of the future of health insurance. The UnitedHealth Group, one of the nation’s largest health insurers, is teaming up with the YMCA and retail pharmacies to try a new approach to one of the nation’s most serious and expensive medical problems: Type 2 diabetes. Rather than simply continuing to pay ever-higher medical claims to care for its diabetic customers, UnitedHealth is paying the YMCA and pharmacists to keep people healthier. The result, they hope, will be lower costs and lower premiums for everyone. The insurer will announce today that it will work with Y “lifestyle coaches” in seven cities to help people who are at risk for diabetes lower their odds of developing the disease by losing just a modest amount of weight. The Y already offers a program that has had clinically proven success with such efforts, in intensive 16-week programs that help people learn to eat better and exercise. See Diabetes / B5

Consumer Reports magazine warned car buyers to avoid the 2010 Lexus GX 460 sport utility vehicle because of a handling problem that could lead to a rollover and possibly “serious injury or death.” A “don’t buy” warning is rare for the magazine, but there was no doubt it was necessary, said David Champion, senior director of its auto test division. The litmus test was whether the testers would want their families in the vehicle. The answer was no, he said, so “I wouldn’t want anybody else in it.” The handling problem arises if the

After testing the 2010 Lexus GX 460, Consumer Reports issued a “don’t buy” warning, a rarity for the magazine. New York Times News Service

driver of a Lexus GX 460 SUV lifts off the gas pedal while driving quickly through a sharp turn. That causes the rear end of the vehicle to slide toward the outside of the turn, a condition known as “trailing throttle” or “liftthrottle oversteer.” On dozens of other SUVs tested by the magazine, the electronic stability control system of the vehicles detected and quickly stopped the slide. But the stability control did not stop the GX 460 until it was almost sideways, Champion said. See Lexus / B5

warns of overuse

By Andrew Pollack New York Times News Service

Genetically engineered crops have provided “substantial” environmental and economic benefits to American farmers, but overuse of the technology is threatening to erode the gains, a national science advisory organization said Tuesday in a report. The report is described as the first comprehensive assessment of the impact of genetically modified crops on American farmers, who have rapidly adopted them since their introduction in 1996. The study was issued by the National Research Council, which is affiliated with the National Academy of Sciences and provides advice to the nation under a congressional charter. The report found that the crops allowed farmers to either reduce chemical spraying or use less harmful chemicals. See Crops / B5

The U.S. Department of Labor announced Tuesday that it filed a lawsuit against a former Prineville medical management company, alleging the company’s president used money intended for the company’s 401(k) plan to benefit the business instead, a violation of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act. The suit, filed last month in the Pendleton Division of U.S. District Court, alleges that Kim Crofcheck, owner of Central Oregon Medical Management, failed to apply $1,430.32 of employee contributions to the company’s 401(k) plan between March 15 2003 and Dec. 31 2005. It also alleges Crofcheck’s company only paid a portion of the required employer-matching contributions to the plan and that $33,214.83 is still owed. No criminal charges are made in the suit. The Department of Labor asks that Crofcheck and her business pay back the $34,645.15 to the plan, plus any interest that would have been earned in the 401(k). Crofcheck would be removed from any position as fiduciary of the plan, as well as prevented from serving in that position for any other plans governed by ERISA, if the department’s allegations are upheld by the court.

Former WaMu execs defend their actions WASHINGTON — Former top executives at failed savingsand-loan Washington Mutual on Tuesday defended their performance in the years before the bank’s 2008 collapse, saying they tried to reduce the huge risks it was taking in the subprime market and they, like virtually everyone else, failed to foresee the huge housing downturn that led to the financial crisis. The executives testified at a hearing by a Senate panel investigating Washington Mutual’s downfall, the largest bank failure in U.S. history. After an 18month review, the Senate’s Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations found the company had created a “mortgage time bomb� by making subprime loans they knew were likely to go bad and then packaging them into risky securities. Many of the problems stemmed from shoddy loans originated by the bank’s Southern California-based subprime unit, Long Beach Mortgage Co. Those findings were partly confirmed in testimony by two former Washington Mutual risk officers. “As CEO, I accept responsibility for our performance and am deeply saddened by what happened,� said Kerry Killinger, Washington Mutual’s former chief executive. But he and other executives said in their prepared remarks that they had worked to limit the company’s mortgage lending as the housing market began slowing and that, more than anything else, the bank was overtaken by economic events out of its control.

U.S. trade deficit rises WASHINGTON — The U.S. trade deficit took a turn for the worse in February as imports swelled to meet American consumers’ renewed appetite for electronics, toys, apparel and other goods from abroad. The larger-than-expected $39.7-billion deficit was up from a revised $37 billion in January, according to figures released Tuesday by the Commerce Department. U.S. imports climbed 1.7 percent to $182.9 billion in February. American exports of goods and services also rose in February, to $143.2 billion from $142.9 billion

Schumer takes aim at airline carry-on fees WASHINGTON — Sen. Chuck Schumer has called on the federal government to discourage airlines from charging passengers for carry-on baggage. In the last few years, Schumer said, airlines have added fees for checked baggage, seat assignments in the coach cabin, in-flight entertainment headsets, peanuts and even pillows. “This latest fee is a slap in the face to travelers and has crossed the line of acceptable practices,� the New York Democrat said. Spirit Airlines announced April 6 that it would begin charging customers $45 for carry-on bags at the gate or $30 in advance. The carrier, based in Miramar, Fla., charges $19 online and $25 at the airport for a checked bag.

FCC chairman tries to ease industry fears LAS VEGAS — In a wideranging speech to broadcasters, Federal Communications Commission Chairman Julius Genachowski tried to ease fears in the industry about the agency’s broadband plan, expressed concern about recent battles over carriage fees between broadcasters and cable operators, and warned of a potential crisis in journalism. Speaking at the National Association of Broadcasters conference in Las Vegas, Genachowski said all the talk in the industry that the FCC is going to forcefully take spectrum from broadcasters to sell to telecommunications companies is a “myth.� As part of the FCC’s broadband plan, which was presented to Congress last month, the agency has said it would like broadcasters to voluntarily return 120 megahertz of spectrum — or airwaves — allocated to TV stations to allow for quicker mobile phones and improved broadband service. Broadcasters do not want to give up their spectrum and say they want to offer their own mobile services, which could provide a much-needed revenue stream to prop up the sagging local TV business. — From wire reports

Next Week: Interview bombs Five interview questions that can ruin your chances.

Will employers eventually drop health benefits? New law’s option to pay annual fine in lieu of coverage could be cheaper

Paul Delp, president and owner of the Lansdale Warehouse Company, is conflicted over whether to continue offering health insurance benefits. “If the exchanges can offer a better plan, maybe we’d give (employees) more money, so they can afford a better plan on their own,” he said.

By Jane M. Von Bergen The Philadelphia Inquirer

PHILADELPHIA — Brad Tiffany says his clients joke that he’s the nicest guy they don’t like to see. And no wonder. Once a year the employee-benefits consultant comes around bearing sad tidings of rising health insurance premiums. “It’s gut-wrenching,” said Paul Delp, president of Lansdale Warehouse Co. Inc., a 60-employee logistics firm, and a client of Tiffany’s. That’s why Delp and other employers are waiting to see how the sweeping health-system legislation will play out. One big unknown: Will employers still be willing to provide coverage, or will an effect of the new legislation be the erosion of employer-sponsored health insurance? “That’s the million-dollar question,” said Tiffany, of Kistler Tiffany Benefits of Philadelphia. The Congressional Budget Office, which provides Congress with official cost estimates for legislation, predicts a net longterm decline in employer-provided insurance as more people buy coverage from insurance exchanges. To be sure, most of the new law’s major provisions — requiring everyone to get insurance, setting up exchanges, and fin-

ing employers that do not offer insurance — will not take place until 2014. That is also when “the freerider” part of the law kicks in. “Free-rider” is policy-wonk lingo for employers who might choose to pay the annual $2,000-peremployee fine rather than offer insurance. “One of the things that has been watercooler talk is whether the penalties are so small that (employers) would be willing to drop coverage,” Tiffany said. Most employers want to provide coverage, and most employees expect it, he said. “Yet if they keep on paying ever-higher premiums and throwing more back on the employees in ever-higher contributions, it could make (dropping coverage) more of a possibility,” Tiffany said.

A tough decision The CBO projects that the number of people covered by their employers will continue to grow until 2015, the year after the mandate, fines and exchanges begin. By 2019, some employers will add coverage. Others will either drop it or not offer it — most likely small businesses or those that employ low-wage workers. Net loss: three million. Will Paul Delp’s employees be among them? Delp is clearly conflicted. Providing health insurance for his 60 warehouse workers, drivers, customer-service managers and office staff is “something we should do,” said Delp, who recounted how he recently paid $500 out of his own pocket to help an employee with health is-

sues. “We’re trying to keep our employees. We have very low turnover. We try to get them to lead healthy lives.” On the other hand, as much as he likes Brad Tiffany, Delp does not love it when Tiffany delivers the news that Delp will face a two-digit increase if he maintains his employees’ same coverage. Then Delp huddles with Tiffany. They water down coverage and up co-pays until the increase drops below 10 percent. Delp pays 60 percent or 70 percent of the premium, but he feels bad knowing he is offering less than he would like. “It’s too soon to tell,” Delp said. “If the exchanges can offer a better plan, maybe we’d give (employees) more money, so they can afford a better plan on their own.

“But $2,000?” he said, referring to the employer penalty. “If that’s an annual figure, I’d jump on it.” What about employees at Eldredge Inc., a West Chester, Pa., waste-transport company? Chief financial officer Alice Egan does the math: “We have 55 employees, and we currently pay more than $600,000” to cover them and their families. She multiplies 55 by $2,000. “The fine would cost me $110,000, so I’d save nearly a half-million dollars.” Actually, she would save more. The legislation gives employers a pass on the first 30, so her fine would be $50,000 for 25 staffers. That would mean her company would no longer be covering employees’ families — an unattractive option to current employees and potential hires. “We want to do the best we can to recruit the best employees we can afford,” she said. Egan expects Eldredge to continue to offer coverage. But, she said, if other companies could lower their costs by skipping coverage, “it would make it awfully enticing for someone whose profitability is suffering.” As an employee, Egan said, she would want her company to provide health benefits. “As an employer,” she quickly adds, “it would be an interesting decision.”

Societal norms According to the Kaiser Family Foundation’s study on employer benefits, the average annual premium to insure is $4,824 for single coverage and $13,375

for families. Since 1999, the percentage of firms offering insurance has declined from 66 percent to 60 percent, mostly because the smallest firms have dropped coverage, Kaiser said. Almost all large firms provide benefits. Small companies that now provide insurance will immediately get tax credits to continue it, under the new law. Many companies began offering health insurance during World War II, when labor was scarce and the government imposed wage controls. These days, a benefit plan remains a way for employers to compete for top workers. It is also the societal norm, said Michael Ferguson, chief operating officer of Self Insurance Institute of America Inc. Ferguson said that the legislation might change that norm, although, he said, that remains to be seen. “No executive team wants to look at their work force and feel guilty,” he said. Employers offer plans, in part, “because there is no viable alternative for their employees,” said Paul Fronstin, director of health research at the Employee Benefit Research Institute in Washington. “Health insurance exchanges create a viable alternative, and unemployment at 10 percent negates the argument that they need to offer coverage to be competitive in the labor market,” he said. So will companies drop coverage in 2014? “No employer wants to be the first one to do this,” Fronstin said, “but many of them are willing to be second.”

million people. For Oregon tourism professionals, the 22 percent who answered not sure represent an opportunity, Sheatsley said. But to reach them, operators of tourism-related businesses have to get the word out. “As long as you are in the marketplace,” he said, “you have an opportunity … to entice the 50 million adults to visit Oregon.” Results from the national survey indicated the state already figures into many travelers’ plans. Of those surveyed, 9 percent — or 20.4 million potential visitors — said they were either very likely or extremely likely to visit Oregon in the next 24 months. They also plan to spend more money. Of the group that answered either very likely or extremely likely, 35 percent said they expect to spend more than they did last year, according to the survey. Most of those potential visitors, 73 percent, want to visit the mountains, followed closely by national parks, which showcase the state’s vistas and scenery. “Oregon has what people are looking for,” Sheatsley said, “… escape and natural beauty.”

Continued from B1 So any improvements measured against last year’s low points, not against benchmarks from the bumper years before 2008, will look great by comparison. Consumer confidence has shown minor improvement, he said, but remains below 2007 levels. The survey, showed the public still has financial worries, with a higher percentage this year saying personal debt would influence travel plans than last year. The attempted Christmas Day bombing of a Northwest Airlines flight from Amsterdam to Detroit also made consumers skittish about air travel, Sheatsley said. However, the survey indicated a pent-up demand for travel from those who may have been forced to put off a vacation in 2009. Those who travel will be looking for deals; they plan on staying closer to home, but show a willingness to drive longer distances, Sheatsley said. About 56 percent of respondents, representing 127 million people, intend to travel this year, according to the survey. About 22 percent said they had no plans, and another 22 percent said they were not sure. In the survey, 22 percent represents, potentially, 50

Diabetes Continued from B1 The announcement is planned for a conference on diabetes being held this week in Kansas City, Mo., by the federal Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, which will also discuss a complementary effort by the CDC to finance the Y programs in 10 additional locations around the country. The CDC locations have not yet been chosen.

Managing costs The UnitedHealth effort is an example of the new role health insurers may take on in wake of the new federal health care law, as insurance companies are forced to cover people regardless of their medical condition. It is also a response to the growing demand by employers that insurers do more to manage health costs, beyond collecting premiums and paying doctors. An estimated 25 million people in this country have Type 2 diabetes, the most common form of the disease, which generally develops in adults as a result of obesity and poor diet. An additional 60 million people — one in four adults — are considered pre-diabetic and at high risk for developing the disease. By one estimate, the cost of treating both diabetes and pre-

diabetes exceeds $200 billion a year. “This is an enormous problem,” said Dr. Ann Albright, who is overseeing the CDC’s diabetes efforts. “Our data tells us it’s getting worse.” In a related effort aimed at people who are already diabetic, UnitedHealth plans to pay Walgreens pharmacists in the same seven cities to help teach people to better manage their conditions. The insurer says it hopes to expand the program to other pharmacy chains interested in providing education and counseling to diabetic individuals. UnitedHealth plans to introduce the program in Cincinnati, Columbus and Dayton, Ohio; Indianapolis, Minneapolis, Phoenix and Tucson, Ariz. It will be available at no cost to participants, and will be open to adults who are enrolled in health plans the company offers through employers. People eligible for the program in several of those cities could include some employees of General Electric, which has 304,000 workers worldwide. The company praised the program for looking beyond the 15 minutes that a patient typically spends with a doctor during an office visit, discussing a drug or treatment. Instead of focusing on paying for health care, said Dr. Robert Galvin, GE’s chief medical officer, “this is very emblematic of

thinking about health.”

crops. These crops are genetically engineered to be impervious to the herbicide Roundup, allowing farmers to spray the chemical to kill weeds while leaving the crops unscathed. Overuse of this seductively simple approach to weed control is starting to backfire. Use of Roundup, or its generic equivalent, glyphosate, has skyrocketed to the point that weeds are rapidly becoming resistant to the chemical. That is rendering the technology less useful, requiring farmers to start using additional herbicides, some of them more toxic than glyphosate. More than 80 percent of the corn, soybean and cotton grown in the United States is genetically engineered. The crops tolerate Roundup, are resistant to insects, or both. Critics of biotechnology, who

say the crops may be risky to health and the environment, have issued studies saying that use of the crops has resulted in increased reliance on pesticides and has had only a minimal effect on crop yields. One critic, Charles Benbrook, said the conclusion that the crops help farmers might not be true in the future. That is because the report relies mostly on data from the first few years, before prices of the biotech seeds rose sharply and the glyphosateresistant weeds proliferated. “This is a very different future,” said Benbrook, an agricultural economist who is chief scientist at the Organic Center, which promotes organic food and farming. “The cost is going to be way higher. The environmental impacts are going to go up fairly dramatically.”

Building on success UnitedHealth expects eventually to offer the program through other insurers and to people enrolled in its private Medicare and Medicaid plans. One insurer, Medica, a large Minneapolis health plan, has already signed on for its 600,000 members in Minnesota. UnitedHealth said it is investing tens of millions of dollars in this initiative, helping the Y develop an online curriculum and collect the data necessary to track the progress of the people enrolled in the program. The company says it will use its own data about the health of its members to identify people who are pre-diabetic and may not know it — and then tell them about the program. “This will absolutely pay for itself,” said Dr. Deneen Vojta, a senior executive at UnitedHealth. Both UnitedHealth and the CDC want to expand on the success of a clinically proven program that has been offered by the Y. Based on evidence drawn from that program, people who are pre-diabetic and lose just 5 percent of their body weight can reduce their chances of developing the disease by almost 60 percent. The CDC is also considering ways to encourage organizations beside the Y to develop similar programs.

check said. Crofcheck, on advice from her attorney, declined to make any additional comments Tuesday, and plans to issue a statement Thursday. Central Oregon Medical Management closed its operations before St. Charles Health System, then known as Cascade Healthcare Community, had any involvement with Pioneer Health Care, said Janette Sherman, a spokesman for the hospital system. She said the system began leasing Pioneer’s building and equipment in January 2008.

Continued from B1 An independent fiduciary would be put in place to distribute the plan’s assets to its participants and beneficiaries. The suit asked for the court to order Crofcheck and her business to pay for the costs associated with appointing the independent fiduciary. Crofcheck said she operated Central Oregon Medical Management from 2001 until it closed in 2007. The company, which was located at the same address as Pioneer Health Care Center, oversaw clinic operations for Pioneer Health Care physicians, Crof-

Continued from B1 The crops also had lower production costs, higher output or extra convenience, benefits that generally outweighed the higher costs of the engineered seeds. “That’s a long and impressive list of benefits these crops can provide, and have provided to adopting farmers,” David Ervin, the chairman of the committee that wrote the report, said on Tuesday during a webcast news conference from Washington. But Ervin, a professor of environmental management and economics at Portland State University in Oregon, warned that farmers were jeopardizing the benefits by planting too many so-called Roundup Ready

Continued from B1 A spokeswoman for Lexus, Toyota’s luxury car division, said the company was “puzzled” by the magazine’s results because it conducts its own tests, and safety is a top priority. She added that Lexus “will take a very serious look at this and appreciates Consumer Reports bringing it to our attention.” The magazine’s action is another public relations problem for Toyota. In addition to complaints about unintended acceleration and Prius brakes, there have been questions over whether the automaker was prompt in reporting problems to federal safety investigators. Most recently the federal government said it was seeking a $16.4 million fine, accusing the automaker of not acting quickly enough. Champion said that the SUV problem came to light at the magazine’s test track in East Haddam, Conn., while looking for “any nasty habits that might catch a driver out.” He said, The particular test that concerned the magazine involves a turn that suddenly gets sharper. The driver enters at about 60 mph and then, as if surprised, lifts off the gas. Ideally, the electronic stability control would stop a slide caused by that maneuver, allowing the vehicle to safely complete the turn. Champion said such a problem could happen in everyday driving. For example, a driver heading quickly through a turn — like a highway off-ramp — who finds the turn is sharper than expected would naturally lift off the gas, he said. In a statement, Lexus complained that the magazine had not demonstrated the problem for its representatives. Champion said, however, that on the day the officials visited the track, it rained, making a precise duplication impossible. Lexus officials were shown a video of their earlier tests.

KIDS GET MOVING

By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin

Bend-La Pine Schools will not install back-in angle parking on Harmon Boulevard at Highland Magnet School, after school board members expressed concern about safety risks to students. On Tuesday, board members voted 4-2 to proceed with all other parking and safety improvements at the school site, but to cut out the planned back-in parking. “It comes down to student safety,” said board member Wells Ashby, who called for the motion. “This would be a new method of parking for the city of Bend, so to that extent it is experimental. ... It’s a back-in parking situation for pick-up and drop-off of grade-school children. You put all those factors together, and it doesn’t seem safe to me.” The Highland project was designed to increase available parking at the school, which often has more than two dozen cars parked — some illegally — around the school at the beginning and end of each day. The parking project was included as part of the $119 million bond voters passed for school improvements in 2006, and was slated to cost about $100,000. In addition to the back-in angle parking, the project called for a new bus pullout zone and various safety improvements. Currently, parallel parking on Harmon Boulevard allows for a maximum of 18 parked vehicles; the back-in angle parking would have doubled that to 32 spaces, according to district facilities staff and city of Bend traffic engineers.

3 arraigned in case of stolen elk antlers worth thousands By Erin Golden The Bulletin

Three people charged with stealing thousands of dollars worth of antlers from a Sisters ranch in February were arraigned this week in Deschutes County Circuit Court on multiple charges of burglary and theft. The case began on Feb. 21 in eastern Grant County, when an Oregon State Police trooper pulled over a vehicle because someone inside wasn’t wearing a seat belt and the vehicle wasn’t staying in its lane. When the trooper asked the driver, Sean Ray Wright, 41, of Sisters, and the passengers, Ronald Maciel, 43, and Elizabeth Marie Miller, 41, both also of Sisters, about the trailer they were pulling behind the vehicle, they said it was full of antique furniture. But when the trooper discovered the trailer was actually full of antler horns and “buttons” — the base of the antlers, often used to make belt buckles — the three changed their story, saying they were headed to La Grande to sell the antlers, said Lt. Randy Scorby. Wright was arrested on suspicion of failing to register a change of address as a sex offender, but the passengers were not taken into custody. The next day, owners of the Patterson Elk Ranch in Sisters called the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office to report that antlers had been stolen from a barn on the property. An emergency dispatcher remembered the call from the trooper, and told sheriff’s deputies that the two cases could be connected. See Antlers / C6

Man awarded $1.4M in Boy Scouts sex case The Associated Press PORTLAND — A jury delivered an embarrassing rebuke to the Boy Scouts of America on Tuesday when it found that the organization failed to protect a man who was molested by an assistant Scoutmaster in the early 1980s. Jurors awarded $1.4 million to the former Portland man and decided that the Irving, Texas-based organization was liable for up to $25 million in punitive damages that will be decided in a separate phase of the trial. Over the first three weeks of testimony, secret Scout “perversion files� — records of known sex offenders — were used as evidence, though it’s unclear if jurors consulted the documents while deliberating over two days. The Scouts denied allegations of negligence and said the files actually helped them keep child molesters out of their ranks.

Latest mystery tree cutting injures woman The Associated Press SANDY — The latest in a series of mysterious tree cuttings near a stretch of U.S. Highway 26 southeast of Portland is the first to involve injuries. Molly Rose Oregan was driving east late Sunday after a birthday celebration when she crash with a felled tree about 18 inches in diameter. Oregon State Police Lt. Gregg Hastings says the 20-year-old’s car was totaled; she suffered minor injuries. Since Feb. 1, about 20 trees have been felled onto roadways, power lines or driveways in the rural area east of Sandy. Authorities say they have no suspects. “Whether or not it’s criminal mischief or some diabolical plan to try and hurt people, it’s still very serious,� Hastings said. “We’ve got to stop this.� The tree cuttings started with a report of a tree leaning against power lines near a street off U.S. 26. Since then, fallen trees have caused two accidents on the highway. “It’s a place where I’ve never had to lock my doors and windows, and now my neighbors

are afraid to sleep at night,� said Sandi Cleveland, who has lived on Cherryville Drive for more than 25 years. State Police and Clackamas County sheriff’s deputies are investigating. The case will be very dependent on tips, Hastings said. “We’re really hoping that neighbors in the area heard somebody cutting trees late at night,� he said. “Unless someone gets caught in the act, this case is going to hinge on somebody coming forward.� Last month, deputies responded to a call about chainsaw noise and apparently surprised the tree cutters, according to sheriff’s Detective Jim Strovink. They found a chain saw dumped in a ditch and believe it may be related to other incidents. Deputy Fire Chief Phil Schneider of Sandy Fire District No. 72 says the department has fielded numerous calls since the beginning of February about downed trees. State police got involved Feb. 7, when a car crashed into a tree on U.S. 26 near East Terra Fern Drive. Nobody was hurt.

County juvenile crew honored for projects The Deschutes County Juvenile Community Justice Department was honored Tuesday with an award for having an exemplary partnership with the State Land Board and Oregon Department of State Lands. Beginning in 2007, juvenile-offender crews have cleared trash from state lands around the region as part of their community service. Among the cleanups: a Stevens Road tract in southeast Bend, a piece of land near the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center in Redmond and a property on Todd Road outside Alfalfa.

La Pine neighborhood naming contest La Pine residents are invited to name the neighborhoods in their city as part of a contest sponsored by the city of La Pine. As part of the development of

the city’s comprehensive plan map, planners designated three neighborhoods within the city — one taking in the areas around Wickiup Junction on the north, one for the areas south of Reed Lane, and one for the areas in between. Planner Deborah McMahon said the hope is that the three neighborhoods will develop into self-contained communities, where residents can work, shop and play within a short distance of their homes. Residents of the city can submit their suggestions for the names of the three neighborhoods to La Pine City Hall, 51340 U.S. Highway 97, La Pine 97739. The Planning Commission will review submissions and choose names that best reflect creativity and represent the neighborhood. The contest runs through May 15.

Cloverdale Road to close for work A portion of Cloverdale Road east of Sisters will be closed between Jordan Road and state Highway 126 next week due to construction. The road is scheduled to be closed between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., Monday through Wednesday, according to a news release from the Deschutes County Road Department. Drivers are advised to use alternate routes.

Physical education teacher Michael McGinnis, 59, talks with first-grade students Monday morning. McGinnis said he started the Mileage Marker punch card program at Madras Elementary School to motivate students to stay fit and healthy.

Fitness Continued from C1 Students aren’t required to participate, but the program encourages them to keep fit and active through physical activity. “They don’t have to do it, and some students choose not to,” Rosenfield said. “Some like to do it. Some do it for a couple of laps and go back to playing, or some do it the whole time.” Rosenfield, 23, said about half of her 25 students regularly participate. They seem to enjoy the activity, she said. During first recess, between 9:45 and 10:15 a.m., Rosenfield punches cards for kindergartners and first-graders. “We keep our cards in a little pocket chart, so they bring them out every recess, and they’re out there running,” she said. “And it’s really nice to see them out there doing it.” First-grader David Lezama, 7, completed his Mileage Marker card Monday morning. He was excited to claim his prize. “I just run and run, and didn’t stop,” David said. Classmate Hannah Holliday, 6, said she has 17 more punches to go. “I’ve been walking and running,” Hannah said. “It makes you get really tired, though.” Students are keeping track of their daily exercise on a map of Oregon for the statewide Shape Up Across Oregon program, which also motivates students to develop healthy ex-

ercise habits. Students need to fill out 45 squares, which make a path across the state from Gold Beach to Oregon’s border with Nevada and Idaho. To fill out a square, students need to log 30 minutes of exercise at home or at school. Activities may include mowing the lawn, jogging and swimming. “Children today don’t get as much exercise as we did when we were kids,” said PE teacher Michael McGinnis, 59. “And they need to move more.” Students are only allowed to fill out three squares per day. Rosenfield is competing with her students to see who can finish the map first. She logged four squares from teaching dance lessons and walking her dogs. One of her students has logged about seven. “Right now, they’re beating me,” she said. Students will earn award certificates for completing the map. Both activities end April 30. Teachers hope students who participate will enjoy exercising enough to do it on their own. The goal is for students to spend more time playing outdoors, Rosenfield said. “There’s just so many video games and TV, and things like that, that catch their attention,” she said. “I just hope that this shows them just how fun it is to be outside and play, and be a kid.” Diane S.W.

Choose Ahern for commission

V

oters in Jefferson County will fill two slots on the county commission at next month’s primary. John Hatfield is running for re-election without an opponent, while Com-

missioner Mike Ahern is being challenged by Bill Atherton. There are major differences between the latter two men. Ahern, who is finishing up a second term on the commission (he served from 2000 to 2004; was defeated and ran again and won in 2006), grew up in Jefferson County, went away to the University of Oregon and then came home. He married and raised three sons there, ran a small market and now sells real estate. He knows the county the way only a lifelong — or nearly so — resident can know a place. Atherton moved to Madras about 10 years ago and operates a small ranch in the Gateway area. He has worked in government in Oregon and California for much of his adult life. Of the two men, it’s Ahern who has the clearest vision of where the county is going and what it needs to get there. High on his list is education, no small thing for a county in which less than 60 percent of residents have a high school diploma. The county is actively seeking grants to expand the Central Oregon Community College campus in Madras and will move Oregon State University Extension Service offices there. Economic development also is

important, Ahern believes, and he’s proud of the fact that the county has an economic development director who helped shepherd through its first business enterprise zone in Culver. Atherton, meanwhile, sees land use planning as the most important issue facing the county, and he’d work to change state law to clamp down tightly on rural development. It’s not the hot-button stuff that makes Ahern the best man for the job, though we agree with his positions on many of those issues. It’s the smaller changes that have been put in place while he has been in office that recommend him most. It’s the fact that the county actually has reduced its staff since 1999. It’s the move to contract for some county services, including mental health, and to privatize others, including janitorial services and operation of the transfer station. Those changes and others have left the county in relatively strong financial shape, even during the current downturn. Ahern has served the county well, and he wants to continue to do so. He should be given the chance.

Why charter schools need protection W hen Oregon lawmakers wrote the rules governing charter schools, they included provisions protecting startups from the whims of local school officials and their teachers unions. There’s a reason for such protection, and it’s on display now in the Redmond School District. The Redmond Proficiency Academy opened its doors this school year to 150 students, the number its founders and the district agreed upon for its first year in operation. The school allows high school students to move at their own pace in individual classes, moving ahead when they are proficient in the subject matter. Its success has apparently surprised at least some district and Redmond Education Association officials. Faced with budget pressure next year, union leaders and board members have expressed interest in trimming the school’s wings. The district faces a budget shortfall in excess of $1 million, and the charter school claims 95 percent of state per-pupil funding for each enrolee. The funding formula concerns school and union officials not only because it has cost Redmond High School about $500,000 this year, but also because it will cost much more next year. The district’s contract with Proficiency Academy allows the char-

ter’s enrollment to swell to 250 during 2010-11. More than 130 students have signed up for the 100 new spots. Fortunately, as academy Director Michael Bremont has pointed out, state law prevents school districts from crying “poverty” and closing charter schools. Neither may the district unilaterally slash the school’s funding level or force it to reopen its contract, according to a legal opinion prepared for the district. This is all for the good. Success should be rewarded, not punished. It just so happens that the school’s approach to education is one that a significant number of students and their parents prefer over the traditional model being used elsewhere in the district. If that isn’t a successful foray into school choice, we don’t know what is. Rather than seeking to squeeze the Proficiency Academy, school officials ought to try harder to emulate it. Maybe then more Redmond students would stay where board and union members want them. Lawmakers foresaw the willingness of school districts and teachers unions to kill anything that was perceived of as either a financial or philosophical threat. The grumbling about the Redmond Proficiency Academy demonstrates why such legal protections are in place.

My Nickel’s Worth Come clean on costs I refer to the front page article in the March 28 Bulletin that reads “Deschutes plans cuts at juvenile detention center.” The article discusses plans by Deschutes County officials to lay off five employees, saying the population of young offenders has not increased as anticipated. The article goes on to say that the cut will “effectively close one of three sections of the center.” Further, the article says that the “Juvenile Community Justice Department is one of many that will not get an increase in county general fund money this year, which amounts to a reduction because of annual cost increases.” Come on, demand is down, you reduce employees appropriately, you are mothballing 33 percent of your facility. Expenses should decrease, you get the same amount of money as you did last year and you have the nerve to say that you are actually getting a decrease in funding. Try publishing the annual budget, line item by line item, compare actual expenditures one year against actual expenditures the next year and see what kind of reaction you get from the taxpayers! I am not in any way opposed to the good work done by the county with community juvenile needs, but be completely honest with the taxpayers and use real math and full disclosure

about the financial side of the business. The taxpayers deserve it. William Long Bend

Small-dog park The Old Mill dog park is a great addition to the city of Bend. However, there may be a design flaw. Since there is no dedicated small-dog play area, large and small dogs are forced to share the space, and often their play is dangerously rough. The park is large enough to partition a safe, small-dogs-only (30 pounds and under) play area. As the owner of a friendly and wellbehaved retired racing greyhound, I’ve spent upwards of an hour waiting for small dogs to clear out of the park so my dog can go in without causing alarm to small-dog owners. I wait because, although my dog is not aggressive, her breed is trained to chase and hunt small prey, and I won’t take the chance of her grabbing a small dog, even at play. It would be wise to have a separate and safe area for small dogs. Many of them would be happier there, and dogs like mine would have an opportunity to play too. I can’t speak for small-dog owners, but I have had conversations with many of them who would like to see a safe small-dogs-only play area. Talia Oren Bend

Mammogram advice I am 72 years old and for the past 30-plus years I have had annual mammograms, all of which were normal. Two months ago I had my usual annual mammogram, and this mammogram was not normal. Following additional testing I was diagnosed with the very early stages of breast cancer. Had I paid attention to the published studies or other published articles about not needing mammograms on an annual basis and skipped a year or maybe even more than one year without having one, I could very easily be in an advanced stage of breast cancer. Thanks to my mammogram, my cancer was caught early. Thankfully, my surgery was successful and there was no evidence of the cancer having spread to other parts of my body. Since it was found early, I do not need radiation treatments but I have been advised to have another mammogram in six months, which I will definitely do. Thankfully, I am a cancer survivor — all due to early detection. Regardless of all the studies or statistics that are shared in the media or in publications, in my opinion failing to get an annual mammogram is too much of a risk to take. Ann Anderson Bend

Independent candidates are proliferating in New England

T

hey make less of a ruckus than the Tea Party people, but independents in New England are brewing their own revolution. Thirdparty governors may have been elected elsewhere — Walter Hickel in Alaska (1990) and Jesse Ventura in Minnesota (1998) — but in New England , such candidacies have become almost routine. Independents are making credible runs for governor in Massachusetts, Maine and Rhode Island. The strongest contender, Rhode Island’s Lincoln Chafee, is a former U.S. senator and former Republican. Polls show Chafee comfortably ahead of his likely Democratic and Republican rivals. This regional trend preceded the Tea Party phenomenon. The U.S. Senate’s two independents are Connecticut’s Joe Lieberman and Vermont’s Bernie Sanders, both of whom caucus with Democrats. Connecticut’s former governor, Lowell Weicker, had been a Republican-turned-independent. And if

elected, Eliot Cutler would be Maine’s third independent governor. I asked Chafee: Are these independents eventually going to have their own party headquarters complete with an animal mascot? “They are more a collection of independents now,” he responded, “but they could coalesce under a single title.” And which party would be hurt by this development? “If a third party emerged, it would be at the expense of Democrats,” he added. The third independent running for governor is state Treasurer Tim Cahill in Massachusetts. He and Cutler were Democrats. A recent Rasmussen poll shows Cahill with 23 percent support, putting him a reasonably close third behind incumbent Democrat Deval Patrick’s 35 percent and Republican Charles Baker’s 27 percent. Independent candidates have no doubt been encouraged by Republican Scott Brown’s bombshell capture of the

FROMA HARROP Massachusetts U.S. Senate seat held by the late Ted Kennedy. But they offer little cause for Republican rejoicing on the national level. None is putting an “R” after his name. Brown’s victory was something of a fluke, and he’s already under fire for being too liberal. Unlike Tea Party types elsewhere, relatively few New England voters belong to the Republican base. They tend to be fiscally conservative but socially liberal and environmentalist. Many were Republicans before the party’s center of power moved south and defi-

nitely before the election of President George W. Bush. A growing number are Democrats tired of the party’s machine, run by public-employee unions. A foe of the Iraq war and budgetbusting tax cuts, Chafee became the scourge of Republican leaders in Washington. Party hotheads condemned him as the ultimate RINO — Republican in Name Only. Maine’s Republican Sens. Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins remain in the RINO corner and may soon be joined by Brown. Chafee notes that the right doesn’t care that he and other Republican moderates were booted from office. “That’s the base that rejoiced in the defeat of the Chafees and the Mike DeWines and Gordon Smiths and Norm Colemans that don’t fit the cookie-cutter parameters,” he said. Ohio’s DeWine lost his Senate seat in 2006, as did Chafee. Minnesota’s Coleman and Oregon’s Smith were defeated in 2008. Another consideration for voters:

The new batch of New England independents are running for state-level offices, which means they would not change the balance of power in Congress. Note that three very blue New England states — Connecticut, Vermont and Rhode Island — have Republican governors. Just before Chafee lost his senatorial race, most Rhode Islanders still spoke highly of the man and his politics. They just didn’t want his re-election to keep Senate majority control in Republican hands (as it would have, it turns out). In his book “Against the Tide,” Chafee writes of pollster John Zogby warning Senate Republicans in January 2001, “There is a burgeoning centrist third party waiting to be formed.” That process could very well be starting, and on America’s northeast shoulder.

Roberto de la Madrid, former governor of Baja California Los Angeles Times Roberto de la Madrid, who became the first U.S.-born governor of a Mexican state when he took office in 1977 in Baja California, has died. He was 88. De la Madrid died March 19, officials from Mexico’s Institutional Revolutionary Party confirmed. He had cancer and died in Tijuana, according to media reports. Born in 1922 in Calexico, Calif., to Mexican parents, he was taken across the border to Mexicali soon after his birth.

Raised on both sides of the border, de la Madrid counted Jose Lopez Portillo — then president of Mexico — as his closest personal friend when the ruling Institutional Revolutionary Party chose him as their candidate for governor of Baja California. He is credited with helping to usher in a new era of friendly border relations between Baja California and California. De la Madrid also built up the region’s tourist industry and successfully attracted foreign investors.

Ethel Bernice Jones Robert Ortega August 16, 1918 - April 29, 2010 Rosas

Dec. 2, 1935 - April 8, 2010

Our mother, Ethel Bernice Jones, passed away on Monday, April 29, of natural causes, at the Redmond Health Care Center. She was 91. She was born August 16, 1918, in Blenco, Iowa, to Otto Lichtwald and Amy (Mobley) Lichtwald. The family came Ethel Bernice to Oakridge, Jones Oregon, after she graduated from high school. She married Ernest D. Jones, our father, on July 2, 1938. Mom began sewing when she was a teenager and continued throughout her lifetime, creating clothing, crafts, quilts and gifts for our family and friends. She enjoyed hiking and camping and was a Girl Scout leader in Oakridge for 14 years. She attended business school and spent a career as a bookkeeper in the Eugene/ Albany area. After retiring, she moved to Redmond in 1991, to be closer to our family. She did volunteer work for several organizations and enjoyed traveling. Mother was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, and her sister. She is survived by me, her daughter, Lavonne Smith, my husband, Morgan, of Redmond; and my brother, Lawrence Jones and his partner, Estephanie Tittle, of Reno, Nevada. Mom leaves five grandchildren, ten great-grandchildren, and three great-great-grandchildren. We are planning a private service at internment at Fern Dale Cemetery, in Oakridge, when we lay her beside our father. May they rest in peace.

Passed away on April 8, after a mercifully short battle with cancer. Dave is survived by his loving wife of 13 years Kathy, his son David Bryce, daughter Sharon Elander, and nine wonderful grandchildren. He was preceded in death by his mother Lois Elma Jenkins and father Herman Leo, as well as brothers Jerry and Jack. He now joins his daughter Lori Jo in heaven, who tragically passed away three years ago. Born and raised in Ranchester, Wyoming, Dave obtained an undergraduate degree from it’s State University. After completing his MBA from the University of Colorado, Dave built a highly successful career during more than two decades living in Minnesota, home to both his surviving children. His love affair with mountains, snow skiing, and trout fishing led him to his final residence in Bend, Oregon. Dave lived a life of passion for music, admiration for the principles of democracy our nation’s soldiers fought and died for, and a faith in God admired by many and matched by few. He accepted his illness with grace, dignity, and the certainty his time on earth would be rewarded by his passage into the Kingdom of our Lord. No matter his state of residence, Dave’ infectious gift of laughter, uncanny radar for moral character, and social grace, allowed him to develop life-long bonds of friendship with one and all that knew him. He will be profoundly missed by those whose lives he touched, but leaves this world for a better life, knowing that his time here was a gift from God to us all. A celebratory service of his life will be held at 7:00 p.m. on April 17 at the First Presbyterian Church, Bend, Oregon. In lieu of flowers donations will be accepted for a music fund of the First Presbyterian Church, or the Hospice House of Bend which provided loving care for Dave in his final days, as well as his daughter Lori Jo.

Parking Continued from C1 According to Director of Facilities Paul Eggleston, district officials will now have to meet with city staff to determine what changes — like crosswalk improvements and a bus pullout area — are still possible. He estimated the district has already spent about $10,000 designing the plan, and redesign could cost an additional $5,000. At school board meetings over the past two months, parents, neighbors and other stakeholders have come forward in support and opposition to the project. Board members Nori Juba and Kelly Goff opposed the motion, favoring the addition of back-in angle parking. “There is no conclusive research stating that back-in diagonal parking is safe or not safe, and in the absence of conclusive data I have to defer to the process that’s taken place to get to this point,” Juba said. “I feel if the parents of the school and staff feel this is a good plan and that it’s safe enough for their kids, I don’t think it’s my place to say it’s not safe enough.” Other board members said they would be worried about backing into children while trying the new style of parking. “I’ve got a big truck, and when I back up I can’t see. But when I go forward I can,” said board member Tom Wilson. Board member Ron Gallinat agreed. “I know there’s been a great deal of time spent on this,” he said. “But this is teaching people something very new in our community, and it’s concerning to me when you’ve got school kids involved.” Sheila G.

Fred Ascani, pilot who flew supersonic jets By Richard Goldstein New York Times News Service

Maj. Gen. Fred Ascani, an Air Force test pilot, a recordsetting air racer and the overseer of a highly publicized supersonic aircraft project of the 1960s, died March 28 at his home in Alexandria, Va. He was 92. The cause was lung cancer, his son William said. Ascani embarked on his military career during World War II, when he flew 52 bomber missions over Europe. He flew some 50 types of Air Force research planes after the war, including the X-1 rocket plane, the craft that Capt. Chuck Yeager flew in October 1947 when he became the first pilot to break the sound barrier. On Aug. 17, 1951, Ascani — then a colonel — set a world closed-course speed record at the National Air Races in Detroit, flying an F-86-E Sabre jet over a 100-kilometer course at 635.686 miles an hour. In July 1961, he was named project director for the B-70 Valkyrie, a huge six-engine plane that was originally envisioned as the successor to the B-52 bomber.

August 1, 1935 - April 7, 2010 Robert Ortega Rosas of La Pine, Oregon, passed away April 7, 2010 in Roseburg, OR. He was born August 1st, 1935, in Tulare, CA. ‘Mr. Bob’, as he was known, to some was the epitome of ‘Christ-like love’. If there was ever a need he could help Robert Ortega with, he was Rosas there. Bob served during the Korean Conflict in the U. S. Air Force. Survivors include his wife, Cherie A. Rosas; his children, Cynthia Obiols, Lorraine Medina, Robert Rosas Jr., Ronald & Shannan Gordon, Thomas & Sarah Gordon, Victoria Gordon, Nathan Gordon, Eric Gordon and Denise ‘Tootsie Roll’ Gordon; his grandchildren, Michael, Gina and Daniel Obiols, Eric Rosas, Donovon Guffey, Christopher Starnes, Brenden, AnnaLee, Hailey and Abigail Gordon; his great-grandchildren, Davina, Jessica, Little Michael, Marissa, Tatiana Obiols and Lexie Rosas. He was preceded in death by his granddaughter, Monique Medina. Funeral Services will be held, Tuesday, April 20, 2010, at 2:30 p.m. at Holy Redeemer Catholic Church, 16137 Burgess Road, La Pine, Oregon. Committal services with military honors: La Pine Community Cemetery. Baird Memorial Chapel in charge of arrangements.

911 director Continued from C1 McDonald, who rose through the ranks at 911 during her 15-year career, earned $98,137 a year and continued to receive a paycheck after being placed on leave Dec. 3. Since the 911 board’s vote last week to fire McDonald, she is no longer on the county’s payroll, County Administrator Dave Kanner said Tuesday. After officials placed McDonald on leave, they hired 911 Interim Director Andy Jordan, at more than $8,000 a month. The investigator retained to conduct a personnel investigation and produce a four-page report charged $5,554, county officials have said. For now, there is no rush to replace McDonald, Bend Fire Chief Larry Huhn, the current chairman of the 911 board, wrote in an e-mail. “It could be that we take a short ‘breather’ before moving ahead with a decision,” Huhn said. “We currently have a very competent and qualified interim director in Andy Jordan. The 911 Center is operating smoothly, and the construction project for the new building is on track.” A meeting of the 911 board is scheduled on Tuesday, and the issue of whether to start searching for a new director could come up then, officials said. Bend Police Chief Sandi Baxter said the meeting will be the 911 board’s first opportunity to discuss what to do next. “Our priority now is going to be the hiring of her replacement,” Baxter said.

Al Reser wipes away a tear at a news conference to announce the renaming of Oregon State University’s football arena from Parker Stadium to Reser Stadium in Corvallis, on Sept. 14, 1999.

Al Reser, food mogul and OSU sponsor By Abby Haight The Associated Press

PORTLAND — Al Reser, a food company executive and Oregon State University benefactor whose name is on the football stadium, has died. He was 74. A spokeswoman for Reser’s Fine Foods said he died Monday in his sleep at his Florida vacation home. His wife, Pat, was on a walking tour in Spain with two of their children and was returning to Florida. Reser helped to turn what began with a family potato salad recipe into a food empire. He may have been better known in Oregon as a passionate promoter of Oregon State, donating millions to the school where he met his wife, Pat, and graduated in 1960. His donations to OSU athletics — including the $15 million that etched his name on the football stadium — helped raise a football program from the butt of jokes to regular bowl appearances. “Pat and Al said it really wasn’t about naming the stadium,” said university president Edward Ray, who got news of Reser’s death at a stopover in Minneapolis as he was flying to Corvallis. “In fact, they felt a little embarrassed about it. They made a statement. Oregon State was on the move. It was doing things. This was a way to get people to take notice.” The Resers also gave $10.65 million toward the $77 million Linus Pauling Science Center currently under construction. On Saturday, the Oregon State alumni association gave Reser its highest honor, the E.B. Lemon Distinguished Alumni Award. Reser’s son, Martin, accepted the award. In the 1950s, Reser’s mother, Mildred, made potato salad, and his father, Earl, sold it door-to-door around Cornelius. The company took root when Safeway decided to sell the potato salad in all its Oregon stores.

Marie Harry October 1, 1919 - April 7, 2010

Lifetime Deschutes County resident of 94 years, Marie Harry passed away into heaven on April 7th, 2010, in the company of her great niece, family and many caring friends. Marie was the 6th child of 9, born to Christian and Elizabeth Harry who owned and operated a 120 acre dairy farm (Swiss Alpine View), with their children at the corner of Wickiup Avenue and Helmholtz Way, where they farmed hay, grain, fruits and vegetables with dairy products from their Brown Swiss Cows which the great town of Redmond, Oregon enjoyed for many years. Aunt Marie enjoyed her morning breakfast listening to the songs of many birds outside her kitchen window, and she loved to grow and share her award winning roses and flowers to friends, family or to anyone that needed a kind hello……

Where Buyers And Sellers Meet

Marie is survived by her brother Julius Harry and a loving extended family. In heavenly peace Marie will join her parents Christian and Elizabeth and siblings, Alice, Anna, Theodore, Margaret, John, Rosa and Laura in eternal life. The Lord has a beautiful place for Aunt Marie, she is a beautiful lady, who will be loved always and missed deeply…..

Drought Antlers threatens research The Associated Press KLAMATH FALLS — The Klamath Basin water shortage is threatening agricultural research as well as farms. Researchers at the University of California’s Intermountain Research and Extension Center in Tulelake, Calif., and the Oregon State University Klamath Experiment Station near Klamath Falls are scrambling to find water to keep alive continuing research. The Tulelake center has 25 projects planned on 29 out of a total of 100 acres. The Klamath Center has 20 projects planned on its 60 acres. The studies produce information on what crops do best in the region.

Sentence Continued from C1 In an Alford plea, a defendant does not admit guilt, but agrees there could be evidence to lead to a conviction. Before receiving his sentence, Centrone listened as Chesney described the sudden loss of her younger brother and the impact of his death on his siblings, two children and elderly mother. “The sleepless nights, the early morning wake-ups of my brother and Greg being brutally attacked by Mr. Centrone’s knife is more than I can bear,” she said. “This is something that will remain with me for the rest of my life. The hurt is unbearable.” Centrone was initially charged with aggravated murder and unlawful use of a weapon and could have faced the death penalty if the case went to trial and he was convicted. After his attorneys negotiated with the Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office, Centrone agreed to plead to a lesser charge of murder and prosecutors dropped the weapons charges. Centrone’s attorney, Geoff Gokey, told Judge Michael Sullivan that his client opted for

Continued from C1 Oregon State Police found the buyer who had purchased the stolen antlers in La Grande and later recovered 39 antler halves and 80 buttons. On Feb. 25, troopers and deputies served a search warrant at a residence in Sisters, where they recovered more stolen property from the ranch burglary. This week, Wright, Maciel and Miller were arraigned on one count each of first-degree aggravated theft, a felony, and multiple counts of first-degree theft and second-degree burglary, also felonies. They have not yet entered pleas on the charges, according to court records. “The sale of antlers is legal in Oregon, as long as they are naturally shed and split apart at the skull or cut at the skull,” Scorby said. “The issue here was that the antlers were stolen.” He said the stolen antlers

the Alford plea in part because he doesn’t remember what happened the night Spikerman and Wade were killed. Gokey said Centrone was evaluated by a psychiatrist who diagnosed him with a condition called pathological intoxication, which he described as a rare condition that can cause people to have a “strange reaction, that is sometimes violent and terrible,” after drinking alcohol. But he said the condition wasn’t a good enough defense to stand up in trial. Centrone, wearing handcuffs and a blue jail jumpsuit, his long hair in a ponytail, remained calm throughout the proceedings, often nodding as he listened to attorneys describe the case. At one point, he turned to Chesney to apologize — but said he didn’t know what went wrong. “I do wish that it could all just be bad dream, and we could wake up and have those two men back,” he said. “As it is, I willingly accept my sentence, and I am profoundly sorry for this, for what’s happened, and I’d do anything to reverse it.” Sullivan sentenced Centrone to two life terms, which will be served consecutively. He will not

seemed suspicious because they were cut unusually closely to the buttons, and because they were light in color, which indicated that they came from elk on a farm, rather than elk living in the wild. He said the antlers could sell for “tens of thousands of dollars,” depending on the buyer. Richard Patterson, the owner of the ranch, declined to comment. Lt. Erik Utter of the Sheriff’s Office said the theft of antlers is rare — and that the antlers stolen in Sisters were particularly notable because of their large size and high value on the open market. “You might see the theft of something like this from an art shop, where somebody’s built something out of the antlers, but you don’t typically see the theft of antlers, not at a high volume,” he said.

If released, Centrone would spend the rest of his life on post-prison supervision, but Sullivan said his release would be “unlikely.” In addition, Centrone was ordered to pay $5,000 in restitution to each of the victims’ families. Chesney said she’s spent the last six months trying to cope with the loss of her brother, who she said was a friendly, outgoing man who loved his family. For several years, Wade lived with Chesney in Bend. When he moved out, he left behind five boxes and told Chesney they were very important. After he died, Chesney opened the boxes and found all the birthday, Christmas and Father’s Day cards he’d received from his children, along with artwork they’d completed when they were young. Around the community, Chesney said Wade and Spikerman were well known and well liked by a wide variety of people. “I still run into people around town with tears in their eyes, who say they miss them,” she said.

Former champions to offer tips on Pole Pedal Paddle race

Outlaws outlast Bears

“A Gathering of Success,” a Pole Pedal Paddle preparation session featuring four former winners of the popular annual multisport race from Mount Bachelor to Bend, is scheduled for next week. Marshall Greene and Sarah Max, the 2009 men’s and women’s Pole Pedal Paddle winners, respectively, will join other former race champions Muffy Roy and Dan Simoneau to offer tips to 2010 PPP participants. The event will take place Wednesday, April 21, from 5:30 to 7 p.m. at the downtown Bend branch of U.S. Bank, 1025 N.W. Bond St. Topics expected to be covered include logistics, transitions, training, the course, and tips on how to reduce race time. The clinic is presented by the Mt. Bachelor Sports Education Foundation, for which the PPP is a fundraiser. For more information, call Molly at 541-388-0002 or email to molly@mbsef.org. — Bulletin staff report

Sisters scores decisive goal in game’s closing moments Bulletin staff report Bend opened the scoring, but it was Sisters that prevailed in a back-and-forth High Desert League boys lacrosse game Tuesday at Bend High, where the Outlaws won 5-4. The Lava Bears (2-3 High Desert League, 24 overall) took an early 2-0 lead. But Seth Schneider put the Outlaws on the board with the first of three consecutive Sisters goals. Bend added a third goal just before the halftime break to tie the score at 3-3. “Bend made us work for all of our goals,” said Sisters coach Bill Rexford. “They have some very good defense.” With one Sisters player in the penalty box,

Bend capitalized on an extra-man situation to go up 4-3. But the Outlaws responded minutes later to tie the game at 4-4. “We got some second-chance (scoring) opportunities,” Rexford explained. The score was still tied with two minutes remaining when Sisters’ William Saunders fed Ben Bremer a pass from behind the goal. Bremer, who was waiting just above the crease, got free from his defender and scored what proved to be the winning goal for the visiting Outlaws (3-1 HDL, 3-2 overall). Both teams return to action Saturday, when Sisters hosts Aloha and Bend travels to play Hermiston.

Face-lift for the greens Like Widgi Creek last year, Awbrey Glen is spending the spring replacing certain greens By Zack Hall The Bulletin

Few workers toiled on the Awbrey Glen Golf Club greens on a chilly and gloomy April day last week. Surprisingly few, at least, for what seemed like such an involved project. Awbrey Glen, a private golf club in west Bend, has hired Beaverton-based Bernhardt Golf to resurface five of its greens this spring after those greens were infested with anthracnose basal rot, or ABR. And in just one afternoon, the greens

would be stripped of all the diseased turf. “(Bernhardt Golf is) very efficient,” says Doug Feher, superintendent for Awbrey Glen. “At 1:30 we started on No. 3, and basically by 5 o’clock or 5:15 we were done. Each green took about 5½ trailer loads (of the stripped turf). It was

pretty amazing. And I was surprised how businesslike they were.” Awbrey Glen’s problem greens are not abnormal on the heavily wooded golf courses of Central Oregon. The fungus basal rot thins poa annua, an annual bluegrass that, on the region’s putting surfaces, inevitably over time becomes the dominant grass and creates discolored patches. And the more shaded the greens, the more susceptible they are to such diseases. At a cost of about $10,000 per green, Awbrey decided last year to hire Bern-

hardt Golf to resurface the putting surfaces on the third, eighth, 14th, 16th and 18th holes, says Mark Amberson, the longtime general manager of Awbrey Glen. “Once basal rot gets into the plant, it’s extremely difficult to control,” Amberson says. “We’ve spent untold thousands of dollars on chemicals and manpower to combat the disease. And we finally got to the point last summer where we thought, ‘We cannot go through another year like this.’ ” See Greens / D6

CORRECTION Results for the Redmond vs. McNary high school girls tennis contest that appeared Tuesday in Prep Scoreboard on Page D5 omitted the outcome of the No. 3 doubles match. Redmond’s Megan McGinty and Chloe Woodward defeated McNary’s Kate Janssen and Katrina Cabanlit, 6-1, 6-0, in No. 3 doubles during the Panthers’ 8-0 Central Valley Conference team victory. The Bulletin regrets the omission.

S B Football • Clemens signs RFA tender with Jets: Backup quarterback Kellen Clemens, a restricted free agent, has signed his tender with the New York Jets. Clemens, a former quarterback for the University of Oregon and Burns High School, told The Associated Press in an e-mail Tuesday that he signed it Monday, giving the Jets four quarterbacks on their roster. The 2006 second-round draft pick had hoped to find a starting opportunity elsewhere during the offseason. He has competed for the Jets’ starting job the last few years, but his future with the Jets is as a backup behind Mark Sanchez. New York also has Erik Ainge and Kevin O’Connell on its roster. • Seahawks DE Kerney retires: Citing a desire to play but a battered body that won’t let him, Seattle Seahawks defensive end Patrick Kerney announced his retirement. The two-time Pro Bowl selection and 2007 All-Pro said last year he had become increasingly aware of the effects that playing 11 NFL seasons for Atlanta and Seattle have had on his body — and potentially on his quality of life after football. He had surgeries on his left shoulder following the 2008 and 2009 seasons. He played an NFC playoff game at Green Bay in January 2008 essentially with one arm. This past January, he had surgery on his elbow. • Seattle tell LB Hill to stay home: The Seahawks have told starting linebacker Leroy Hill to stay away from this week’s minicamp to deal with his personal issues. Coach Pete Carroll said after practice Tuesday that he and general manager John Schneider advised Hill it was “best for him to take care of some things” rather than attend Seattle’s voluntary three-day minicamp. Hill was arrested for investigation of domestic violence in the Seattle suburb of Issaquah over the weekend, just days after reaching a plea deal on a marijuana charge in Georgia. • Broncos sign Marshall to tender: Brandon Marshall has signed his $2.521 million tender from the Denver Broncos, a move which could help facilitate a trade for the mercurial wide receiver. The Broncos slapped a firstround tender on Marshall, but teams were unwilling to part with a first-round draft pick to lure the restricted free agent out of Denver. He caught 101 passes in 2009, including an NFL-record 21 in a loss at Indianapolis. • Court to hear fan lawsuit over Patriots’ filming: The NFL’s ‘Spygate’ is headed back to court. The U.S. Third Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia is scheduled to hear oral arguments Wednesday in a lawsuit arising from the New England Patriots’ secret videotaping of New York Jets coaches in a game at Giants Stadium in 2007. The suit was filed by a Jets season ticket holder who also is an attorney in New Jersey, and it claims the Patriots’ actions “violated the contractual expectations and rights of New York Jets ticket-holders” who paid to watch a game played in compliance with the league’s rules.

Hockey • Oilers win lottery for 1st pick in NHL draft: After finishing with a league-low 62 points, the Edmonton Oilers have won the NHL draft lottery for the first overall pick in June. The Oilers (27-47-8) came into the annual lottery Tuesday with a 25 percent chance of securing the top pick in the June 25-26 draft. It will mark the first time Edmonton picks first. Boston will pick second after acquiring Toronto’s first-round pick in an off-season trade that sent Phil Kessel to the Maple Leafs. Florida will select third, followed by Columbus and the New York Islanders — who picked first in 2009. Tampa Bay, Carolina, Atlanta, Minnesota and the New York Rangers round out the top 10.

Auto racing • Barnhart, de Ferran head new IndyCar committee: IRL executive Brian Barnhart and former Indianapolis 500 champion Gil de Ferran will help steer the IndyCar Series in a new direction. Barnhart and de Ferran will lead a seven-member committee that is charged with finding new, innovative, cost-effective race cars. — From wire reports

Carroll starts Seahawks’ minicamp By Gregg Bell T h e Associat ed Press

RENTON, Wash. — The khakis were still on. So were the sunglasses. The hoodie? Seahawks navy blue and neon green, not Trojans maroon and gold. The enthusiasm? All Pete Carroll. Even the weather — sunny and seasonably cool, with a breeze blowing off Lake Washington — had this Southern California transplant pumped. “What was everyone complaining about the weather for?” Carroll said, squinting into the sun and laughing. Tuesday brought a minicamp like none other to Seattle. The 58-yearold coach who restored a dynasty at USC led his first NFL practice since the end of the 1999 season. For 90 fast-paced minutes, Carroll smiled and clapped and slapped backs. His new players stretched as their coach walked and chatted among them. They ran through pads laid out on the field. They ran from drill to drill. All of it was just like the Washington Huskies do across the lake under the direction of Carroll protege Steve Sarkisian. Which is to say, just like USC does. It’s was as if Carroll was setting about to compete for his third national title — not begin the long rebuilding of a fallen NFL franchise. The Seahawks have gone from four consecutive NFC West titles to 9-23 since their last playoff game in January 2008. They have so many holes to fill in next week’s draft, Carroll said with a wry smile, “we’ve got issues in a lot of areas.” “Yeah, I am pumped up about it. This is a chance of a lifetime, for

Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll, center, talks with former Oregon State receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh during a minicamp football workout Tuesday in Renton, Wash. us, for our staff, for our team,” the former coach of the New York Jets (1994) and New England Patriots (97-99) said. “This is a tremendous day. I even took a couple minutes out here to look around and to recognize this day.” This launch point was so important for Carroll, he had his assistants out on the field the day before to practice the first practice. “It’s a new day for the Seahawks, we hope. It’s big!” he said. “I know it’s just a little minicamp. But to us, it’s more than that.” The only coach not in team workout shorts or sweat pants had a clear mission statement for his staff and players on Day One. “We’re trying to do things better

than it’s ever been done before,” Carroll said. “We’re trying to be the best staff, the best team, (to go on) the best run we can put the Seahawks on that they’ve ever seen. That starts today. Where that ends up? I don’t know. But that’s what we’re out here to do. It starts out with having the best first practice that they’ve ever seen.” His players are just trying to keep up with Carroll’s USC system already rolling in Seattle. After three-time Pro Bowl quarterback Matt Hasselbeck fired a sharp pass for a completion over the middle, Carroll thrust his fist toward him for a bump. The 34year-old Hasselbeck hesitated and offered an open right hand instead

to begin an awkward, half-bump, half-handshake. Mike Williams is a former Trojans wide receiver who almost ballooned his way out of the NFL but is now slimmed down to 235 pounds. He’s getting a tryout with his old college coach. He made the mistake of walking between drills as he talked to Seahawks veteran receiver T.J. Houshmandzadeh. “Mike Williams, c’mon!” Carroll yelled. “What are you walking out here for?” Williams, who played for Carroll at USC through the 2004 season, said it seemed as though Carroll is more amped in Seattle than he was in Los Angeles. “More excited. A lot more excited,” Williams said. “My feeling is, not to speak for Coach Carroll, is that he’s excited to move on to a new challenge. USC was a challenge he had conquered a few years ago.” Carroll is surrounding himself with many familiar faces while on his new turf. Eight of his assistants and training staffers were with him at USC, including new offensive coordinator Jeremy Bates. Six former Trojan players are in this camp, from three-time Pro Bowl linebacker Lofa Tatupu through Williams and two other USC free agents who are getting tryouts. Former Trojans defensive end Lawrence Jackson, Seattle’s No. 1 draft choice in 2008, said those who are not Men of Troy better get on board. “His resume obviously speaks for itself. His energy obviously speaks for itself,” Jackson said. “All we have to do is buy in. Hey, we’re going in the right direction. Get those old Seahawks out of your mind. It’s a new day.”

AL ROUNDUP Mariners 3, Athletics 0 SEATTLE — Milton Bradley got a much-needed boost for himself and Seattle with one big swing. Bradley hit a three-run homer in the eighth inning to power Seattle to a much-needed victory over Oakland. Doug Fister (1-1) threw eight crisp innings for the Mariners, allowing three hits and walking one. It was the longest outing in the majors for the 26-year-old right-hander, who began last season as a Double-A reliever. Jose Lopez started the decisive rally with his third hit. Then Brad Ziegler (0-2) walked Mike Sweeney. After showing bunt on the first pitch, Bradley golfed a low pitch five rows into the right-field bleachers. Bradley began the day in a three-for-26 rut that led to a demotion in the batting order and a sit-down with manager Don Wakamatsu. The mercurial slugger also flipped off heckling fans from the outfield during the fourth inning at Texas on Friday night.

NBA SCOREBOARD

NBA ROUNDUP

Playoffs in sight for Bulls after victory over Celtics The Associated Press CHICAGO — As if there wasn’t enough drama already, the Chicago Bulls’ season took another weird twist and this one involves coach Vinny Del Negro and executive vice president John Paxson. It also overshadowed a crucial victory. On a night when the Bulls boosted their playoff hopes by beating the Boston Celtics 101-93 behind Derrick Rose’s career-high 39 points, the attention centered on a report that their top executive pushed their coach during a confrontation following a game last month. “I’m not going to comment,” Del Negro said. “I go about my job everyday no matter what happens. I’m a competitor. I’ve been involved in the game a long time. I love the challenge of it. All the other things that happen pretty much stay internally.” Yahoo! Sports, citing unidentified sources, reported Paxson shoved Del Negro twice in the chest and had to be restrained in a dispute after the March 30 home game against Phoenix over how much Joakim Noah played. Also on Tuesday: Jazz . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 103 Warriors . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 94 OAKLAND, Calif. — Mehmet Okur had 23 points and seven rebounds, Paul Millsap grabbed a career-high 24 rebounds, and Utah swept the three-game season series against Golden State

Blazers

Mark J. Terrill / The Associated Press

Forward Nicolas Batum was among the Portland players who spent time injured this season. The Blazers had 13 players combine for 307 games on the injury list, the most of any playoff-bound team in the NBA.

Continued from D1 With the victory over the Thunder, the Blazers avoided the eighth seed in the Western Conference, meaning they won’t face the defending champion Lakers in the first round. But because the conference is still largely undecided, Portland won’t know its seeding or opponent until tonight. There are those who believe it’s impressive the Blazers even reached the playoffs — not to mention 50 wins — given the injuries that have befallen the team. Portland embarked on the season without starting forward Nicolas Batum, one of the team’s best defenders, who injured his shoulder during camp and required surgery. Then came center Greg Oden, the No. 1 pick in the 2007 draft, who mangled his left knee in early December and was out for the season after surgery. Later that month, fellow center Joel Przybilla ruptured a tendon in his right knee and had season-ending surgery, too. Along the way, swingman Rudy Fernandez missed significant playing time because of a sore back, and forward Travis Outlaw, later traded to the Clippers, sat out for an extended period with a right foot injury. Roy missed just more than a dozen games earlier this year

with a sore right hamstring. In all, 13 Trail Blazers have missed a combined 307 games because of injury, second only to the Golden State Warriors and the most of any playoff-bound team. Even coach Nate McMillan was not immune. He ruptured his Achilles’ tendon in early December while practicing with his short-handed team. He also needed surgery. “It’s been a bad year as far as injuries with our group and it’s just something we’ve had to deal with all year long. It seemed like every few hours it got worse,” he said. Roy averages 21.5 points per game for the Blazers, along with 4.7 assists and 4.4 rebounds. He is the unquestioned leader of the team. His absence would undoubtedly be felt by the Blazers in the playoffs. Speculation was rampant as to just how far the Blazers could hope to go without him should the injury prove too painful to play on. “We’d love to have him but his health is the most important thing. We need him well for years to come,” center Marcus Camby said. McMillan is confident his team will find a way to compete — just as it has all season. “They just come to play,” he said. “They don’t make excuses. They continue to work and get tighter and find ways to win games.”

INDIANAPOLIS — College basketball coaches no longer have to shy away from potential recruits during summer camps and clinics on their own campus. On Tuesday, the NCAA’s Legislative Council announced it would allow coaches to have “recruiting discussions” on campus, loosening a rule that was nearly impossible to enforce anyway. The change does not mean coaches can go into full recruiting mode, but they can converse with players they are actually recruiting. The changes must still be approved by the NCAA’s Board of Directors, which meets later this month. The proposal does not distinguish between head coaches or assistants. “The coach cannot give them campus tours and do the kinds of things that they would do on an official visit,” said Steve Mallonee, the NCAA’s managing director of academic and membership affairs. “We wanted to eliminate some of the third-party influence in recruiting.” The proposals intended to clean up college basketball recruiting gained traction in October when the board unanimously endorsed a package of changes. Some were adopted. Others did not survive the NCAA’s rigorous legislative process.

C O L L E G E AT H L E T I C S The council considered more than 30 proposals during a two-day meeting this week and passed more than 20, including an amended package that creates new testing requirements for the sickle cell genetic trait that has been linked to the deaths of some athletes. Most of today’s newborns now undergo the test, which many states were offering in 1998. Some of today’s college athletes, however, have not been tested and the NCAA recommended last June that all athletes be tested. The recommendation came as part of a lawsuit settlement with the family of a former Rice football player who died. On Tuesday, the council decided to give athletes three options: Take the test, provide documentation they have been tested or sign a release to decline the test. “We as a council felt very confident after we had taken the vote that certainly the vote shows the support of the council as well as the membership for the health, welfare and well-being of the student-athlete while also providing for the ability to opt out of the test if for some reason they have concerns about taking the test,” said Joe D’Antonio, the committee chairman and senior

associate commissioner of the Big East. On recruiting, the council also defeated a proposal that would have banned all “outside” coaches or athletes from working at the summer camps or clinics. The council decided to stick with the current language, which bars the hiring of all people “involved” with a recruit. It is a broad enough definition to include high school coaches, family members and AAU coaches, and coaches who do not have a player being recruited by the school could still work at the summer events. The council also rejected legislation that would have eliminated one game from the men’s

and women’s basketball seasons, but approved two other portions of the proposal. One requires faculty athletic representatives or faculty councils to approve men’s basketball schedules. The other requires men’s basketball teams to return to campus within 24 hours of a game. The council also: • Passed legislation requiring “deserving” bowl-eligible teams to post a .500 record against Football Bowl Subdivision opponents. • Defeated legislation that would have eliminated all printed media guides. • Eliminated the number of phone calls that can be made during contact periods in all sports that have an established recruiting calendar, with the exception of football.

D6 Wednesday, April 14, 2010 • THE BULLETIN

Greens Continued from D1 Last week, Bernhardt Golf and the grounds crew of Awbrey Glen stripped the turf off the old greens. Then the crews filled in the stripped areas with sand to level the playing surface and fill in depressions caused by the ground settling over the years since Awbrey opened in 1993. The sanding work should help the greens drain better in the future, Amberson says. And on Tuesday, crews began resodding the greens with A-4 bentgrass, a hardy strain that better handles the freezing temperatures of Central Oregon, grown

in British Columbia. That work is scheduled to be completed today. The new surfaces will be closed for an estimated six to nine weeks — though weather could dictate the schedule — to allow the new turf’s roots to take hold. After that, club members will once again be able to play the holes normally. Once the greens open for play, the A-4 bentgrass should help Awbrey stave off basal rot in the future, Feher says. “It was time to where you try to, if you can, buck up like we are doing,” Feher says. “You do it so that, in the short (golf) season that we have, that (members) have got 18 good greens.” Awbrey Glen’s story is not unique. Just last year another

Palettes of special A-4 Bentgrass sod await placement at Awbrey Glen Golf Course in Bend Tuesday morning. Bend golf course, Widgi Creek, hired Bernhardt Golf to replace seven of its shadiest greens. And Black Butte Ranch, near Sisters, also hired Bernhardt last year to

replace two of its diseased greens. The handful of formerly unhealthy greens at the three Central Oregon facilities all were well-shaded surfaces, surround-

ed by trees that block sunlight from fragile greens. “It’s pretty much the exact same thing,” says Darryl Bernhardt, president of Bernhardt Golf of the problems Widgi Creek, BBR, and Awbrey Glen share. “It really is.” Widgi Creek opened its second nine holes in 1992, a year before Awbrey Glen opened. And like Widgi, Awbrey Glen is surrounded by towering ponderosa pines that shadow certain greens. The more-shadowed greens tend to be the most troublesome during winter, making them more susceptible to disease and freezing temperatures. As part of the current repair project, Awbrey Glen has cut

down a handful of trees that typically block ample sunlight from reaching the greens. And Awbrey is hoping that the new surfaces, combined with more sunlight, will make the $50,000 investment worthwhile by keeping the greens healthy for years to come. “Trees on golf courses in certain places are not a good thing, particularly around greens,” Amberson says. “(Golf courses) provide a very good environment for trees. They like to grow because of all the water and fertilizer we give them. But they are just sunlight robbers.” Zack Hall can be reached at 541-617-7868 or at zhall@ bendbu lletin.com.
