Buying up Bend

Central Oregon’s quarterly health and fitness magazine

Investors are quietly purchasing hundreds of lots in unfinished subdivisions; a California congressman with a heavily scrutinized business record has emerged as a leader in the practice — and he, like others, has his eyes on the return, not development.

almer’s Motel & Cafe in northeast Bend serves up home-style breakfasts, advertises monthly rental rates — and doubles as a California congressman’s base of operations for buying up several of Bend’s partially built subdivisions.

Since last summer, the motel has been listed as the business address for Long Term Bend Investors LLC, a company backed

by U.S. Rep. Gary Miller, R-Calif., and prominent California homebuilder Harry Crowell.

Miller and Crowell have emerged as some of the largest real estate investors in Deschutes County. Their company has quietly spent more than $6 million to buy about 390 lots in Bend and Redmond subdivisions that foundered after the housing market crash. The land came with sidewalks, utilities and even mailboxes for homes that were never built.

It all started with a cupcake.

Clara Mitchell’s son, recently on a gluten-free diet, came home from school and told his mother there had been a party in class that morning. He’d received a cupcake, and when he told his teacher he was on a new diet, she suggested he just eat the frosting.

Mitchell was frustrated, so she sent out an e-mail to some friends. Turns out, she’s not the only parent with students in the Bend-La Pine school district concerned about snacks and sweet treats offered to children when they’re not in the lunchroom.

Mitchell banded together with other parents and started the Smart Food Initiative, which two weeks ago presented its concerns to the school board and other district administrators.

Their goal is to educate district officials about the dangers of junk food and ultimately persuade teachers and principals to cut back on the treats. But administrators say the district already has a wellness policy that encourages healthy eating, and compliance varies depending on the school.

News that federal authorities are questioning the identity of a former Bend liquor agent has local business owners and public officials wondering about the security and screening practices of the Oregon Liquor Control Commission.

U.S. marshals on Tuesday arrested the former OLCC regional manager known as Jason Evers in Idaho on a federal charge of providing false information on a passport. Authorities say they can’t be sure who he actually is and an Ohio man believes — based on information from federal investigators — that Evers stole the identity of his 3-year-old son, who was murdered 28 years ago.

That information, and the fact that Evers’ most recent assignment in Nyssa was to focus on licensing, has some licensees questioning whether personal and financial information they’ve given to the OLCC is secure.

real estate values have bottomed out and are buying subdivisions from banks and distressed developers. Investors have snapped up 600 to 900 lots in ready-to-build subdivisions in the past six to nine months, said Bruce Kemp, a partner at Compass Commercial Real Estate in Bend. Long Term Bend Investors is probably the largest real estate investment outfit active in Bend and Redmond, he said. “(Lots are) being purchased … at or below the cost of infrastructure, so your underlying land value is really free or in some cases slightly negative,” Kemp said. The influx of cash shows investors believe real estate prices have hit the bottom, he added.

Most of these buyers plan to hold the land three to five years to get a 20 percent return on their money, and some are hoping for “a double-your-money play,” Kemp said.

Both Miller and Crowell have worked for decades in the homebuilding business, but they do not intend to develop their land in Deschutes County.

KENT, Ohio — Seventeen students were killed on college campuses by police between 1968 and 1971, but it was four deaths at Kent State that galvanized a nation.

Even 40 years after the shootings, Kent State University is indelibly linked to student protests over the Vietnam War. “Anywhere that you go in the world, people know about Kent State,” said President Lester Lefton, who was a graduate student at the University of Rochester when the shootings occurred, “although they may not necessarily know why.”

Even from a distance of 40 years, the events of May 4 defy explanation. Four days of unrest over the U.S. invasion of Cambodia culminated in the deaths of four students and wounding of nine at the hands of 28 Ohio National Guardsmen armed with gas masks, rifles and bayonets.

Lessons from Katrina make Obama’s trip to the Gulf a tricky one

By Jad Mouawad New York Times News Service

By Michael D. Shear

More than 40 years ago, a thick and pungent oil slick washed over the sandy-white beaches of Santa Barbara and went on to soil 40 miles of Southern California’s scenic coastline. The 1969 disaster resulted from a blowout at an offshore platform that spilled 100,000 barrels of crude oil — 4.2 million gallons in all. It marked a turning point in the oil industry’s expansion, shelving any chance for drilling along most of the nation’s coastlines and leading to the creation of dozens of state and federal environmental laws.

Is history about to repeat itself in the Gulf of Mexico?

Emotions are running high as an oil slick washes over the Gulf Coast’s fragile ecosystem, threatening fisheries, shrimp farmers and perhaps even Florida’s tourism industry. Thousands could see their livelihoods ruined. A cleanup could take years.

Some environmental groups have demanded an end to offshore exploration and urged President Barack Obama to restore a moratorium on drilling. The White House has already said no new drilling permits will be approved until the causes of the accident are known. Additional government oversight seems inevitable.

But whatever the magnitude of the spill at the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig, 50 miles off the coast of Louisiana, it is unlikely to seriously impede offshore drilling in the Gulf. The country needs the oil — and the jobs.

The Washington Post

Changed dynamics Much has changed since 1969.

The nation’s demand for oil has surged, rising more than 35 percent over the past four decades, while domestic production has declined by a third. Oil imports have doubled, and the U.S. now buys more than 12 million barrels of oil a day from other countries, about two-thirds of its needs.

The politics have also changed.

Republicans want to boost domestic oil production to reduce the nation’s dependence on foreign oil.

High on the Democratic agenda is reducing carbon emissions that cause global warming. To bridge the gap, the White House has backed a compromise that would expand domestic offshore exploration in exchange for Republican support for its climate policy.

There is another reason why offshore drilling is likely to continue. Most of the big new discoveries lie deep beneath the world’s oceans, including in the Gulf of Mexico. For oil companies, these reserves are worth hundreds of billions of dollars and represent the industry’s future. Since the 1980s, the Gulf has turned into a vast laboratory to test the most sophisticated technology — rivaling, the industry says, anything used for space exploration.

All this has helped to turn the Gulf of Mexico into the fastest-growing source of oil in the United States. The Gulf accounts for a third of the nation’s domestic supplies, or 1.7 million barrels a day, mostly from deep waters.

A similar expansion is happening around the world, most notably off the coast of Brazil, where billions of barrels of oil reserves have been discovered. .

Perhaps a better analogy would be another recent tragedy. Few seriously considered ending coal mining after the recent deaths of 29 miners at a West Virginia coal mine, the country’s worst mining disaster in four decades. Instead, there were calls for tougher regulations and oversight in an effort to reduce the risk of extracting the coal that generates half of the nation’s electricity.

In the wake of this Gulf spill, the government almost certainly will tighten oversight and force the industry to rethink its approach to safety in an effort to reconcile offshore production and safe environmental practices.

“A fossil-fuel free future isn’t inconceivable, but it is decades away,” says Samuel Thernstrom, a fellow at the American Enterprise Institute. “Meanwhile, we can’t drill our problems away, but drilling still has a role to play.”

U.S. Coast Guard via The Associated Press

Oil gushed into the Gulf of Mexico unabated Saturday, and officials, who have set up containment booms to slow the advancement of the oil toward shore, conveyed little hope that the flow could be contained soon, forcing towns along the Gulf Coast to brace for what is increasingly understood to be an imminent environmental disaster.

Gulf oil spill swiftly balloons, could drift The Associated Press VENICE, La. — A sense of doom settled over the American coastline from Louisiana to Florida on Saturday as a massive oil slick spewing from a ruptured well kept growing, and experts warned that an uncontrolled gusher could create a nightmare scenario if the Gulf Stream carries it toward the Atlantic.

U.S. money to help fund cleanup The federal government has a large rainyday fund on hand to help mitigate the expanding damage on the Gulf Coast, generated by a tax on oil for use in cases like the Deepwater Horizon spill. Up to $1 billion of the $1.6 billion reserve could be used to compensate for losses from the accident, as much as half of it for what is sometimes a major category of costs: damage to natural resources like fisheries and other wildlife habitats.

Under the law that established the reserve, called the Oil Spill Liability Trust Fund, the operators of the offshore rig face no more than $75 million in liability for the damages that might be claimed by individuals, companies or the government, although they must cover the cost of containing and cleaning up the spill.

Meanwhile, teams of lawyers and court-

room experts are mobilizing for a gargantuan legal battle over the Louisiana oil rig explosion that could dwarf the multibillion-dollar damage award paid out following Alaska’s Exxon Valdez disaster.

Fishermen fight misconceptions Bracing for the oil spill, the fishing industry in the region was trying to forestall another perilous flow — of fear and misinformation. “We want people to know there is not tainted seafood right now,” said Harlon Pearce, chairman of the Louisiana Seafood Promotion and Marketing Board. The ripple effects have been felt by the fishermen who have been docked (the bad weather on Saturday contributed to that), to the marinas losing business, all of whom have only begun to recover from Hurricane Katrina.

— From wire reports

As President Barack Obama prepares for a visit this morning to the Gulf Coast, his administration faces the politically tricky task of appearing in control of the response while avoiding the blame.

The aftermath of Hurricane Katrina in 2005 proved how debilitating a disaster can be for a presidency if the public perceives the administration did too little to protect people, the environment or the economy.

The oil spill is no Katrina, in which 1,836 people died amid the near total devastation of one of America’s great cities. In the case of the April 20 oil rig explosion, 11 people perished, but the worst impact of the oil on animals and shorelines has yet to be fully felt.

Still, the Obama administration woke to the political dangers of the crisis Wednesday night, as oil company executives and government agencies informed them of the changing nature of the accident. What had appeared at first to be a tragic but limited incident could grow to become one of the worst ecological disasters on the seas if the oil keeps leaking.

Today’s trip, first discussed inside the White House on Friday, is a clear indication the West Wing wants the country to see Obama at the helm of the response. Deputy Press Secretary Bill Burton said the president will travel to the Gulf Coast with a “very small footprint,” suggesting that the White House is also aware of the downsides of such a trip.

But the arrival of the president and his security entourage inevitably disrupts the activities at the scene. And as President George W. Bush discovered in 2005, the act of offering praise to the hardworking government employees can seem disconnected from reality if things are not going well.

And that is the problem for Obama right now: Things are not going well in the 11-day battle to contain the oil spill. On the surface, efforts to contain the spread with booms is being hampered by rough seas and quickly changing winds. Below the surface, the problems are even more grave: Oil is continuing to gush out despite fail-safe mechanisms that were supposed to stop it, and potential solutions being considered by company executives and their government overseers have never been tried at these depths.

Obama targets tea party

Nuclear gains

by Iran raise fresh worries

The Associated Press

By Joby Warrick The Washington Post

Iran is poised to make a significant leap in its ability to enrich uranium, with more sophisticated centrifuge technology that is being assembled in secret to advance the country’s nuclear efforts, according to U.S. and European intelligence officials and diplomats.

Iran’s apparent gains in centrifuge technology have heightened concerns that it is working clandestinely on a uranium-enrichment plant capable of producing more nuclear fuel at a much faster pace, the officials said.

U.N. nuclear monitors have not been allowed to examine the new centrifuge, which Iranian officials briefly put on display at a news conference this month. But an expert group’s analysis of the new machine — based on photos — suggests that it could be up to five times more productive than the balky centrifuges Iran currently uses to enrich uranium.

Assuming the country has so far produced only prototypes of the centrifuge, it will probably take it another two years, or more, to assemble enough machines to make enough enriched uranium for a nuclear weapon.

After that, though, Iran would be in a position to ramp up production dramatically.

Meanwhile, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad’s plan to attend an international conference on curbing the spread of nuclear weapons this week in New York threatens to turn the meeting into a diplomatic confrontation between the United States and Iran.

The Non-Proliferation Treaty Review Conference, held every five years to assess adherence to the pact, usually commands little attention beyond policymakers. But Ahmadinejad’s quest to speak at Monday’s opening of the nearly monthlong meeting at the United Nations, which Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will also address, is injecting unusual drama into the 2010 session.

“When our government is spoken of as some menacing, threatening foreign entity, it ignores the fact that in our democracy, government is us,” President Barack Obama said after receiving an honorary doctor of laws degree at the University of Michigan’s graduation ceremony Saturday.

ANN ARBOR, Mich. — In a blunt caution to political friend and foe, President Barack Obama said Saturday that partisan rants and name-calling under the guise of legitimate discourse pose a serious danger to America’s democracy and may incite “extreme elements” to violence.

The comments, in a graduation speech at the University of Michigan’s huge football stadium, were Obama’s most direct take on the angry politics that have engulfed his young presidency after long clashes over health care, taxes and the role of government.

Not 50 miles from where Obama spoke, the GOP’s 2008 vice presidential nominee, Sarah Palin, denounced his policies.

The Associated Press NEW YORK — Police found a suspected car bomb in a smoking sport utility vehicle Saturday evening in Times Square, then cleared the streets of thousands of tourists milling through the landmark district so they could dismantle the device.

A white robotic police arm broke windows of the black Nissan Pathfinder to remove any explosive materials while heavily armed police and emergency vehicles shut down the city’s busiest streets, teeming with taxis and theatergoers on one of the first summerlike days of the year. Investigators removed bomb-making materials, including propane tanks, explosive powders and a crude timing device, top police spokesman Paul Browne said.

Times Square lies about four traffic-choked miles north of the World Trade Center site.

Calls for protest unheeded in Iran

The Associated Press

In protests fueled by anger over a tough anti-illegal immigrant law in Arizona, tens of thousands of demonstrators joined marches and rallies Saturday in cities across the country, calling on Congress to pass an immigration overhaul. In Los Angeles, above, the police said the crowd had peaked at 50,000.

Anger over Arizona law fuels another day of rallies The Associated Press CHICAGO — Angered by a controversial Arizona immigration law, tens of thousands of protesters — including 50,000 alone in Los Angeles — rallied in cities nationwide demanding President Barack Obama tackle immigration reform immediately.

“I want to thank the governor of Arizona because she’s awakened a sleeping giant,” said labor organizer John Delgado, who attended a rally in New York, where authorities estimated

6,500 gathered.

From Los Angeles to Washington, D.C., activists, families, students and even politicians marched, practiced civil disobedience and “came out” about their citizenship status in the name of rights for immigrants, including the estimated 12 million living illegally in the U.S. U.S. Rep. Luis Gutierrez, DIll., was among 35 people arrested during a protest at the White House. Protests elsewhere were largely peaceful. No arrests were reported at most rallies.

Obama drew repeated cheers from a friendly crowd that aides called the biggest audience of his presidency since the inauguration. The venue has a capacity of 106,201, and university officials distributed 80,000 tickets before they ran out.

In his 31-minute speech, Obama didn’t mention either Palin or the tea party movement, but he took direct aim at the anti-government language so prevalent from both. Government, he said, is the roads we drive on and the speed limits that keep us safe. It’s the men and women in the military, the inspectors in our mines, the pioneering researchers in public universities.

Obama was direct in urging both sides in the political debate to tone it down. “Throwing around phrases like

McClatchy-Tribune News Service contributed to this report.

A planned demonstration in which Iranian teachers and workers were to join reformists in an antigovernment protest failed to materialize on Saturday, apparently the result of intimidation and a massive police presence.

Two Iranian opposition leaders, Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mahdi Karroubi, had called Thursday for workers and teachers to join the reformists in a broad-based coalition.

The lack of action raised questions about the ability of the opposition to mobilize a mass protest planned for June 12, the anniversary of Iran’s disputed presidential election.

Across Tehran on Saturday, major intersections that had been filled with protesters last summer were filled instead with police officers in riot gear, witnesses said.

‘socialists’ and ‘Soviet-style takeover,’ ‘fascists’ and ‘right-wing nut’ — that may grab headlines,” he said. But it also “closes the door to the possibility of compromise.

Kent State Continued from A1 Student unrest on Friday, May 1, 1970, spread into the streets of the city, and that led to clashes with police and fear.

“It was like a war zone,” recalled Kent Mayor Jerry Fiala, a lifelong city resident who was a young husband in his 20s during the melee. “There were helicopters flying over houses with floodlights all night long.”

Students threw rocks, bottles and water-filled condoms at authorities and spouted phrases like “Pigs go home.” Yet no one expected the final demonstration at noon May 4 to go so wrong so quickly or to spread like wildfire to other campuses.

Within days, 4.3 million students were protesting; students at 350 schools were on strike. Authorities, fearing further violence, closed 51 colleges, including Kent State, for the rest of the term.

Just five days after the shootings, 100,000 protesters marched on Washington. Henry Kissinger, the national security adviser at the time, said the capital “took on the character of a besieged city.”

“The crisis on American campuses has no parallel in the history of the nation. This crisis has roots in American society as deep as any since the Civil War,” reported the President’s Commission on Campus Unrest in 1971.

While the Kent State shootings get some credit for coalescing public opinion against the war and helping to lead to the withdrawal of U.S. troops in 1975, the final chapter on May 4 has yet to be written. Questions remain unanswered to this day.

So many ‘what-ifs’ Some believe the National Guard had a plan to shoot the students, or that one Guardsman shot and others followed, or that a sniper started the volley.

Yet no one was held accountable, and no one has stepped forward to tell the Guard’s side of the story. With the passing of the years, some in command died without giving up their secrets.

There also are so many “whatifs.” If there hadn’t been a wildcat Teamsters’ strike so close by in Youngstown, for instance, it wouldn’t have been as easy for Ohio Gov. James Rhodes to re-

position National Guard troops so quickly onto campus. The armed takeover only amplified student rage. If Rhodes had called in the State Highway Patrol instead of the National Guard, the tenor of the weekend could have been different, suggested retired Kent State sociologist Jerry Lewis, who teaches courses about May 4.

A national crisis At the same time, what was happening at Kent State was happening nationwide.

Thirteen other college students in seven other states died at the hands of police between 1968 and 1971, according to Thomas Grace, a historian and Kent State shooting victim who now lives in Buffalo, N.Y. Some of the carnage was due to the tumult of the times and not necessarily activism against the war, he said.

Just 10 days after the Kent State shootings, two students were killed and 12 wounded at the predominantly black Jackson State University in Mississippi.

Yet it was Kent State that gripped the public. More students died here than at any other single incident; the only women to die were the two at Kent State.

The shootings brought the university into the limelight. “We were the largest unknown university in America,” Lewis said.

“May 4 was one of the things that brought us national attention.”

Lasting effects in Kent The university has embraced the tragedy anew in recent months as it readied for the landmark commemoration. It has launched a website to cater to intense media attention, unveiled a walking tour and is in the process of raising $1.5 million to create a May 4 museum in Taylor Hall, the academic building nearest to the shooting site. Also, the university won recognition for the site of the melee on the National Register of Historic Places.

Yet Kent State officials say the tragedy does not define the university and that it has moved far beyond the dark days of 1970.

The university has paid a price for that kind of limelight, suggested university board Chairman Patrick Mullin, himself a Kent State student during a couple of the most tumultuous years.

University enrollment waxed

For a few students, shootings changed the course of lives

By Carol Biliczky McClatchy-Tribune News Service

KENT, Ohio — May 4, 1970.

The nation’s own military opened fire on its own youth.

It was a moment instantly etched into the memory of those who experienced it. It was an event that caused feelings to swell in a deeply divided nation.

Lives were changed. Political positions were reassessed.

Here is one of their stories.

‘We can’t sit by’ Candy Erickson was a graduate student at Kent State when she and her husband, Edward “Rick” Erickson, became leaders of a feared Students for a Democratic Society clique.

“We can’t sit by with evils all around us,” Candy explained to the Beacon Journal on April 18, 1969. “Whether it means revolution depends on those who support us and on those who oppose us.” Their blueprint was the “Spring Offensive, Time of the Furnace,” according to the Akron (Ohio) Beacon Journal.

They wanted everything: withdrawal of troops from Vietnam, abolishment of ROTC, an end to counterinsurgency and police training on campus, deep-sixing the draft and open college admission for all, regardless of performance or ability to pay.

Kent State was selected for the siege because it was where and waned for years after the shootings. It wasn’t until 1987 — 17 years later — that the number of students at the Kent campus hit 21,500, finally surpassing the fall 1969 enrollment of 21,198. Enrollment did not fully pick up steam until the 2000s and peaked on the Kent campus last fall at 24,569.

Over the years, the university sometimes tried to sweep May 4 under the proverbial rug. Some people refuse to be healed, Michael Schwartz, then the university president, said darkly in one unhappy media conference.

Finally, in 1990, the university officially affirmed May 4 with a memorial by Chicago architect Bruno Ast, surrounded by daffodils. The student-run May 4 Task

A memorial for the shootings on the Kent State campus. society churned out “middlemanagement drones,” Rick Erickson told the Beacon Journal while in the Portage County jail for campus unrest. “This is where they make teachers and all the other types that help maintain the System.”

Yet the SDS was little more than a fringe movement at Kent State, with perhaps only 100 student members on a campus of about 20,000, according to reports at the time. Many students openly objected to their presence.

As for the Ericksons, they came from the very level of society they eschewed. Candy — who got this nickname from a younger brother who could not pronounce Carolyn — spent her freshman year on a full Force keeps the story of those who were shot — it calls them “martyrs” — and what happened — the “massacre” — alive.

In the past couple of years, the university and city of Kent have mended enough fences to join hands to plan a conference center, hotel and parking deck in downtown.

“It will change the whole city,” said Fiala, the mayor.

That wouldn’t have been possible years ago, when memories of broken store windows, the National Guard and rioting students still were fresh.

“There was ill feeling over the years,” Fiala said, “but we’re moving ahead. We recognize that what happened is part of history.”

scholarship at the all-girl Vassar College before transferring to Kent when her family moved.

She got a bachelor’s degree in psychology at Kent State in 1967 and taught literature there as a graduate assistant.

Rick Erickson’s story was even more of a contrast. The son of the former mayor of Akron, he was a scholastic standout and high school football star with visions of a career in law and politics.

In the summer of 1968, as a Kent State student, he went to an SDS convention and was hooked on the belief that the time was ripe for revolution.

When the campus erupted with National Guard gunfire almost two years later, though, the Kent State chapter of the

couple’s lives was over.

Both of them went west to communes, which Candy rhapsodized about when brought back to Portage County to clear up some court business. “It’s so clean in California that when a new factory starts to belch smoke, they go after it,” she told the Beacon Journal in 1970. All you need there is a sleeping bag, she said; the kids are gentle, just like kids everywhere.

The marriage broke up. Candy remarried, had two sons and moved to a cabin in the Oregon woods. That it had no electricity was her style. The family lived there for seven years.

When she emerged, she was fascinated by the new world of computers. In 1989, she earned a master’s in computer science education and, in 1991, a doctorate in educational technology, both at the University of Oregon.

Today, she is a research associate there, where she is known professionally by her given name, Carolyn Harper Knox.

Rick works with the United Food and Commercial Workers Local 21 in Seattle. He did not return phone calls for an interview.

Carolyn, for her part, has fond memories of her activist days.

“We all empowered each other to say more than we could alone,” she said. “It’s given me strength for the rest of my life, that my actions can make a difference. It’s a huge feeling.”

Evers Continued from A1 Agency representatives did not return phone calls or e-mails requesting comment Saturday.

Noel McMichael, who co-owns The Blacksmith Restaurant and Bar in Bend, said the OLCC required him to turn over detailed financial information when he bought into the business about a year ago. He wonders who had access to the data and what has happened to it.

“Now I’m a little worried because I’ll bet you anything that the scanned information I sent them is sitting on a server somewhere,” he said.

McMichael’s brother and business partner, Gavin McMichael, said he asked Evers’ staff if the information was secure and whether it would be destroyed when agents finished their background check.

“They said, ‘Don’t worry, they are staying in files in our office, only a few people have access to them,’” he said. “Well, as the head of that office over there, Jason would certainly have had access to them.”

Evers is being held without bail at the Ada County Jail in Boise, but the criminal case against him was filed in Oregon. He has been charged as “John Doe, aka Jason Evers,” which bolsters the suspicions of Bob Evers, of Cincinnati, that the man sitting in jail is impersonating his son.

Bob Evers said he got a call from a federal investigator last week asking him questions about his murdered son, including the child’s date of birth. The date — Jan. 6, 1979, is one the man claiming to be Evers has apparently used for nearly a decade.

“We are scrutinized to the utmost, anybody who gets a (liquor) license in Oregon. And that really concerns me — what kind of people are they hiring — they have all my personal information and my family’s personal information.”

— Corey Weathers, owner of Corey’s Bar & Grill in Bend

Credibility questions The man known as Jason Evers, who has worked for the OLCC since 2002, stirred controversy with Central Oregon liquor licensees who say he unfairly and overzealously enforced liquor laws when he worked out of the Bend office. In 2006, an independent investigator hired by the state agency found he had been dishonest in at least two cases.

Evers was promoted after those findings became public.

A 2009 Oregon Department of Justice investigation in response to licensees’ complaints found Evers and his staff overstepped their authority or were excessively punitive in about a dozen investigations. After the DOJ report came out, Evers voluntarily transferred to the agency’s Nyssa office, on the Oregon-Idaho border.

The fact that the agency hired him, and then put him in a position to do background checks on potential licensees is a significant problem for the agency, said Bend lawyer Myles Conway.

“I think it compromises their credibility and the validity of their whole licensing program, in

my mind,” said Conway, who has represented licensees before the commission.

Personal information Bend licensee Corey Weathers, owner of Corey’s Bar & Grill on Bond Street and the Tumble Inn in Redmond, said he has been scrutinized by the OLCC three times — when he purchased his businesses and then changed his license status. Weathers said he has turned over “every bit of our personal records” to the OLCC when Evers was working in Bend.

“We are scrutinized to the utmost, anybody who gets a license in Oregon,” Weathers continued.

“And that really concerns me — what kind of people are they hiring — they have all my personal information and my family’s personal information.”

Weathers’ attorney, Bill Buchanan, represents a number of Central Oregon licensees and said he’s repeatedly seen the kind of scrutiny his client refers to.

“If they had used that same sort of vigilance in doing a back-

ground check on one of their own employees, I’m sure they would have discovered this problem,” Buchanan said.

When questioned about Evers’ hiring, an OLCC spokesman said Friday that Evers “would have gone through the standard background check,” which includes fingerprinting.

Deschutes County Commissioner Tammy Baney, who went through the state’s standard background check when she volunteered with the Oregon Department of Human Services, now wonders what is lacking in the process.

“That is really scary, not knowing with fingerprinting and background checks, that a state agency had a loophole that could allow someone with a false identity to get through,” Baney said. “This really begs a bigger question across all state agencies that there really is a loophole in the process that needs to be looked at immediately.”

State Rep. Judy Stiegler, DBend, said the hiring and subsequent promotion of the man known as Evers, despite questions

about his character, are indicative of a larger problem at the OLCC. “I’m hoping that this just underscores the fact that the internal policies of the entire agency need to be scrutinized very, very thoroughly, and not just on the employment front,” Stiegler said.

“I mean, who knows what the back story is here. But I think that is less important than how the agency basically fell victim to this guy and how he may have opened them up to more serious issues.”

Stiegler and Bend City Councilor Jodie Barram, who spoke out against Evers on behalf of licensees last year, both said it may be time for an overhaul of the OLCC. Barram said the way the OLCC handled complaints against Evers was “like treating the symptoms of cancer without getting to the root of the problem.”

Since Evers’ replacement, Katy Boyce, has taken over the Bend office, Barram said she has heard virtually no complaints. Barram credits the agency’s director, Steve Pharo, with making the change but said she believes state-level intervention might be necessary.

“I am now of the opinion that the state needs to take a very serious look at this agency,” Barram said. “I would sincerely hope the state Legislature would look at this agency and its practices and see if there is a better way to do things.”

Pope reins in Catholic order tied to abuse New York Times News Service ROME — Pope Benedict XVI on Saturday took control of the Legionaries of Christ, a powerful and wealthy Roman Catholic religious order whose founder, a close friend of Pope John Paul II, was found to have molested seminarians and fathered several children.

The moves constituted the most direct action on sexual abuse since the most recent scandals have engulfed the church — and prompted criticisms of the pope’s own handling of such cases as an archbishop in Munich and as a cardinal who led the body reviewing many sex abuse charges.

The Vatican said Saturday that Benedict would appoint a special delegate to govern the Legionaries, an influential worldwide order that has been an important source of new ordinations in the church.

Investors Continued from A1 “It was a very good market to buy,” Miller said. “You don’t want to buy at the top of the market; you want to buy at the bottom. ...

I’m planning on sitting on them as an investment right now; I have no immediate plans.”

Miller, a millionaire land developer, said Bend has been the latest focus of his real estate investments, and he has purchased more land in Bend than any other community recently.

Crowell said he expects to wait two to four years for real estate prices to reach values where he would want to sell.

Betting big on cheap real estate Deschutes County’s bargain real estate deals have attracted other major investors in the past year. One is the head of a California water company, John Roeder, who purchased 129 lots in two Bend subdivisions for about $2.9 million, according to Deschutes County assessor’s records.

Great Oaks Water Co., where Roeder is listed as chairman of the board and executive vice president on the company website, is the address where Roeder has the county send his tax bills for the subdivisions. Roeder could not be reached for comment.

Meanwhile, Salem-area resident Peter Dinsdale has purchased 114 lots in three subdivisions for about $3.6 million in recent months, including 81 lots in a subdivision in Sisters.

A local investor is developer Mike Tennant, whose company, Tennant Development, partnered in the 483-acre planned community of NorthWest Crossing on Bend’s west side. In January, a company registered to Tennant bought 74 lots in north Bend for $1.9 million, according to county records.

The story of Long Term Bend Investors As it turns out, Palmer’s Motel & Cafe is more than just a business address for Long Term Bend Investors. Money for the business comes mostly from California, but the idea came from the motel’s owner, Bend resident David Langmas.

Crowell said Langmas, who did not return calls for comment, is his cousin and has been trying to get Crowell to invest in Bend real estate for a decade.

Langmas, the son of former Bend mayor Samuel Arthur Langmas, who served on the City Council in the 1970s and ’80s, is the company’s man on the ground in Bend. Recently, Langmas worked as a headhunter for hospitals around the country, he said in a March interview.

Miller’s connection to the venture was Crowell, who said the congressman had been a close family friend for 30 years. Crowell began building houses in the 1950s and said he is now a coowner of the Century Crowell Communities homebuilding company. He is also a co-owner of The Insco Dico Group, a company that provides surety bonds for contractors and developers.

Miller also started out as a homebuilder and served as president of G. Miller Development Co. as recently as 2008, according to his most recent financial disclosure statement. His company expanded over time to develop entire planned communities, according to his congressional website. “(Miller) was one of my competitors; we became quick friends,” Crowell said. They never did business together, but the opportunity arose recently when Miller was looking for a long-term investment.

“We’ve been doing things of a social nature for all these years, and one day, sitting down, I told him what I was doing and he said, ‘Count me in,’” Crowell said.

Questions raised in California Some of Miller’s California real estate deals have raised questions.

The Los Angeles Times reported in 2006 that Miller repeatedly claimed an exemption from capital gains taxes of up to 31 percent on multimillion-dollar land sales by telling the Internal Revenue Service and the state of California that cities threatened to force him to sell under eminent domain. The congressman’s use of the exemption would have enabled him to defer paying the tax through at least 2009.

The first case was a 2002 land sale to the Southern California city of Monrovia, which paid Mill-

“It was a very good market to buy. You don’t want to buy at the top of the market; you want to buy at the bottom. ... I’m planning on sitting on them as an investment right now; I have no immediate plans.”

— Rep. Gary Miller, R-Calif. er more than $10 million. Miller said the city threatened eminent domain, the Los Angeles Times reported, but city officials refuted the claim.

Then, Miller cited the same tax exemption on two property sales to the Southern California city of Fontana, although city officials there also denied they used or threatened to use eminent domain, the Los Angeles Times reported. In early 2007, the newspaper reported the FBI was investigating Miller’s land sales.

In 2006 through 2008, the nonpartisan government watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington named Miller one of the 20 most corrupt members of Congress, citing these land transactions, according to the organization’s website.

FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller in Los Angeles said last week the agency does not confirm or deny investigations, but noted that criminal charges have not been filed against Miller. Meanwhile, a spokesman for the city of Monrovia, Dick Singer, said federal agents have not contacted the city since the Los Angeles Times first reported Miller was under investigation three years ago.

they appear tidy.

“I think the turnaround has already started,” Crowell said. “It feels like we’ve been bouncing on the bottom for a while.” Sales prices have started to increase slightly, he said, but “the turnaround is probably going to take two or three years.”

Century Crowell Communities in California is still waiting for the recovery to begin.

“We haven’t started a new house for two years,” Crowell said.

“Right now, we’re selling houses for less than it cost to build them.”

But he remains optimistic.

“I’ve been in this business about 60 years,” said Crowell, who declined to give his age. “It always has come back better and more expensive.”

Hillary Borrud can be reached at 541-617-7829 or at hborrud@bendbulletin.com.

Market expectations Crowell said he was in Bend last week, checking on the properties he and Miller have purchased, and “Bend is one of the nicest places to live in the whole country.”

“I was just there. Those properties are just beautiful,” Crowell added. “When we bought them, they were overgrown, filled with trash.”

Now, weeds and grass have been cut at the subdivisions, and

Schools

“It’s cumulative throughout the day. A child gets cupcakes and Twizzlers and Skittles.”

Continued from A1 The concern, these parents say, is not that students receive a treat or two throughout the week. They say students receive sugar-laden snacks and chemical-heavy treats throughout their school days.

Individual staff members might think a little piece of candy is OK. But they’re not the only one handing out candy.

“It’s cumulative throughout the day,” said Kristin Roslund, a member of the Smart Food Initiative who also serves on the district’s wellness committee. “A child gets cupcakes and Twizzlers and Skittles.”

The Smart Food Initiative has created a piece of literature titled “A Typical Day,” with a student using sugared cereal to count in math class, eating cupcakes after lunch, getting candy as a reward for passing a spelling test, receiving a chocolate bar from a specialist and getting a piece of gum on the school bus for good behavior.

Roslund and Mitchell said that while the treat overload doesn’t happen every day at every school, it happens more often than they’re comfortable with.

More than 700 people have started following the group on Facebook, and the initiative has also started a blog. Comments on the group’s Facebook page include mentions of doughnuts for perfect attendance and M&M’s for extracurricular work.

Terry Cashman, the assistant director of nutrition services, met with parents who attended the April 13 board meeting. He said the parents had several concerns: treats given out at school celebrations, as rewards and as snacks that parents bring for kindergarten and other classes.

“They didn’t think that was a piece of the wellness policy that was being tightly followed,” he said.

The wellness policy says the district will encourage “parents and volunteers to provide healthy options at informal class and/or school events to celebrate school occasions.”

Cashman asked Roslund to be a part of the wellness committee and created a subcommittee to look into the issues raised by the Smart Food Initiative. The group recently determined that the best next step is to educate school personnel so they’ll follow the existing policy more fully.

“We’re going to revisit with all

— Kristin Roslund, a parent and member of the Smart Food Initiative

“It’s hard because I think, for instance birthday treats, what’s brought in by parents is they’re buying it and bringing it in. To try to encourage healthy snacks gets into telling people what to feed their kids or bring for the kids.”

— Kevin Gehrig, the principal at Pine Ridge

the principals and (other groups) what some options are rather than using candy as a reward,” Cashman said. “I think Smart Food Initiative ... is willing to step up and be a support, too.”

Parents say the food in the cafeteria is not their primary concern.

But because snacks can vary so much from classroom to classroom, the lack of policing regarding snacks is a bigger issue.

“It’s a loophole that nobody will address,” Roslund said. “They’re missing this humongous piece.”

Roslund said it seems no one is willing to police classrooms to ensure the students are eating healthfully at all times.

“Kids are under their watch for eight hours a day,” said Roslund.

Mitchell agreed.

“They need to respect a family’s personal nutritional choices,” she said.

Michelle Sturm, another parent involved in the initiative who also works as a naturopathic physician, said it has to be a school’s responsibility.

“You cannot expect a 6-yearold or a 10-year-old to say no every time,” she said. “It’s not fair to them.”

Roslund said she’d like to see a more specific district wellness policy. Rather than encouraging behaviors, it could require them.

But short of that, she said, it would be good to see it enforced more often.

Other districts around the state offer specifics about how rewards and celebrations can be healthy.

Beaverton’s policy, for example, says schools should not routinely use foods and beverages as rewards for academic performance or good behavior. It also limits celebrations involving food during school days to one party per class term and can have no more than one food or beverage that doesn’t meet nutritional standards of

foods sold in school.

But some administrators don’t think the problem is as bad as Smart Food Initiative parents believe, saying it’s up to parents to keep their children from eating unhealthy treats.

High Lakes Principal Susan Heberlein said she’s found most of the sweets coming into the classrooms come from parents.

“I don’t think a lot of teachers are handing out sweets for incentives,” she said. “Occasionally that happens, and I remind the teachers; we have talked about it to try to limit it.”

Heberlein also noted that while she’s heard concerns from parents who support the Smart Food Initiative, she’s also heard from parents on the opposite side.

“They think they should be able to say whether their kids get sweets or not,” she said. “What I’ve said in the newsletter is we just encourage parents to let their teacher know if they feel their child shouldn’t have anything sweet.”

Heberlein said she’s not as concerned about the sugary treats

THE BULLETIN • Sunday, May 2, 2010 A7

that children eat at celebrations so much as the size of the snacks.

“Parents that bring in the snack and birthday treats, I’d like to see them bring in a small portion,” she said. “It doesn’t have to be those giant muffins from Costco.

Make it age appropriate.”

Kevin Gehrig, the principal at Pine Ridge, said his teachers try hard to encourage healthy snacks. Parents bring snacks, he said, and teachers ask them to bring cheese and crackers, fruits and vegetables.

But he noted the school does have events like ice cream socials.

“I think when parents bring in birthday treats, our staff tries to encourage healthy snacks during that time,” Gehrig said.

Some teachers, he said, do hand out candy as rewards. But others have prize buckets or provide incentives like an extra recess or special time with teachers.

Gehrig admits it’s a challenging issue to enforce.

“It’s hard because I think, for instance birthday treats, what’s brought in by parents is they’re buying it and bringing it in,” he said. “To try to encourage healthy snacks gets into telling people what to feed their kids or bring for the kids.”

He noted too that sometimes the healthy snacks are more expensive.

“It’s a fine line of telling people what we think they should be feeding their kids,” he said. “It’s a challenge for me how to go about doing it.”

To that end, Gehrig said his staff and administrators try to educate parents about healthy foods rather than providing ultimatums.

And Transportation Supervisor Denice Blake said at most a quarter of her drivers hand out candy.

Some, she said, give treats to students once each week.

“But the majority, it’s more like on holidays or based on particular goals, like ‘If you are good for this many days’ rewards,” she said.

“It’s certainly not something all drivers do, and it’s certainly not all the time.”

But while some district officials don’t think the problem is as rampant as Smart Food Initiative claims, they’re willing to work to mitigate the sugary treats. Next year, Heberlein plans to put a note in the parent handbook asking them to bring in alternative, more healthful snacks in addition to junk food. And Blake said she plans to remind her drivers of the wellness policy and follow whatever new guidelines might come from the wellness committee.

Roslund and Mitchell said their goal is not to get rid of fun celebrations. They’ve even created a handout for parents detailing ways to have healthy classroom celebrations, with ideas like having the birthday student wear a button or having the class write birthday cards for the student.

It also lists possible party foods like trail mix, yogurt parfaits and popcorn.

Both parents said they’re pleased with improvements they’ve already seen in schools around the district. But they expect change to be slow. Roslund noted her frustration that the Miller Elementary fun run included licorice as a treat for the runners.

“They’re blood sugar is just going up and down all day long,” Roslund said. “It’s a crucial piece to the puzzle.”

Ready to water? Test the backflow, Bend says What it’s

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

The city of Bend is reminding local residents to test the backflow assemblies connected to outdoor sprinkler systems before they begin watering their lawns and landscaping this summer.

Designed to prevent the contamination of drinking water, a backflow assembly is a series of springs and rubber valves that — when working properly — will allow water in a pipe to flow in only one direction.

David Doerr, owner of Bend Backflow Testing, said the devices can be

found on outdoor sprinkler systems, fire sprinkler systems and soda fountain machines.

For most homeowners, the only backflow assembly they’re responsible for will be connected to an outdoor lawn sprinkler system. Homes built since 2003 are required to have

a backflow assembly near the water meter, to prevent tainted water from flowing backward into the city’s water system, but maintenance of those devices is the responsibility of the city or water district supplying the home.

WASHINGTON — At 7:15 a.m. on Thursday, U.S. Sen. Jeff Merkley, wearing a gray suit, blue shirt and no tie, loped down the street toward the Takoma Metro station. He carried a slightly battered leather briefcase, with the day’s Washington Post tucked under his arm.

If any of the other passengers recognized the Oregon Democrat, they didn’t say so.

It was a typical start to a typical day for the state’s Sen. Jeff Merkley junior senator, starting early and ending around 9 p.m., with a gala dinner thrown by the American Jewish Council at a downtown D.C. hotel. In between, he met with Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner, spoke on the Senate floor, listened with Oregonians in town to lobby his support on their issues and gave a bushel of interviews on his big initiative of the day, an amendment to the financial reform bill.

Barring an early meeting, this is Merkley’s usual schedule — it gives him time to see his kids off to school before leaving for work. He arrived at the Union Station stop a few blocks from his office building just before 8 a.m.

newest sports complex.

Purchased by the Bend Park & Recreation District in 2004 after several years of negotiation with the U.S. Forest Service, Pine Nursery Community Park has been built in stages, with an off-leash dog park, a walking trail and a stocked fishing pond open to the public for months. But with Saturday’s opening of the fields — four softball or Little League baseball fields, convertible to six soccer fields — the park is on the cusp of completion, said Norm Zeismer, park district development manager.

WASHINGTON — Financial regulatory reform was the big news in Congress last week, as the U.S. Senate Republicans dropped their opposition to a Democratic bill. Debate on the measure starts this week and is expected to go into next week.

Here’s how Oregon’s lawmakers voted last week.

• ALLOWING DEBATE ON A FINANCIAL REFORM BILL Failed 57-41 on Monday, where 60 votes were needed to proceed.

The procedural vote was to overcome a Republican filibuster of the bill to overhaul banking and financial sector regulations. Republicans objected to several provisions of the bill, including a fund created by taxing large banks that would be used to pay costs of another failed firm. After blocking the measure three days in a row, Republicans dropped their filibuster late last week.

• ALLOWING PUERTO RICO TO VOTE ON STATEHOOD

Is that census worker at your door really a census worker?

By Diane S.W. Lee The Bulletin

U.S. Census Bureau employees have begun knocking on doors to visit residents who did not turn in their census forms. But Census Bureau officials are advising residents to watch out for people impersonating census takers.

The Census Bureau takes a nation-

wide population count every 10 years to determine the amount of federal money to award communities for everything from fixing roads to funding schools.

Gary Ollerenshaw, local census office manager, said census takers will be clearly identified. Employees will carry ID badges printed with the

Census emblem and black canvass bags printed with U.S. Census Bureau on the side.

Census takers will spend about five to 10 minutes at each home asking 10 questions, including date of birth, telephone number, race and ethnicity.

Ollerenshaw said they will not ask residents financial information.

“We do not ask for Social Security numbers, driver’s licenses, any banking information, and we do not ask for any proof of American citizenship or immigration status,” Ollerenshaw said.

All information provided to census takers will remain confidential.

See Census / B5

Passed 223-169 on Thursday.

The measure allows residents of the U.S. commonwealth to vote on whether they like their current legal status. Another vote, on whether they’d prefer to become a U.S. state, is also possible. Neither vote would be binding. The U.S. Congress would have final say over Puerto Rico’s statehood.

Oregon May Day marchers protest new Arizona law The Associated Press PORTLAND — Thousands of demonstrators marched through downtown Portland on Saturday to protest Arizona’s new illegal immigration law, which requires authorities to question people about their immigration status.

Many marchers were wearing T-shirts that said, “Do I look illegal?”

Labor rights activists, supporters of police reform and marijuana legalization advocates were among the groups joining in the

annual May Day rally, also known as International Workers Day. In Salem, about 500 to 600 protesters marched from Jackson Plaza at Willamette University to the Oregon State Fairgrounds to kick off the annual May Day march in the state capital.

Others joined them for a scheduled eight-hour festival of music, food and speeches focused on immigration reform.

“It is refreshing,” said Alma Tista, 19, a nursing student. “We have a lot of people here of all ages yell-

ing for the cause. It’s not just Hispanics, but people from different backgrounds. A lot of diversity.”

In Portland, May Day featured two organized and permitted events — the Global Cannabis March starting at Pioneer Courthouse Square and a workers’ rally that started in the South Park Blocks and was followed by a march.

Adriane DeJerk, an organizer with the May Day coalition in Portland, estimated that 5,000 people had turned out.

O Stripping back the layers on 1880s home construction

By Susan Palmer The (Eugene) Register-Guard

SPRINGFIELD — Tara Ikenouye called for a knife. Beneath the wallpaper in the Briggs house bathroom, she could feel a gap where two boards met. It might be the location of a boarded-over window, or perhaps a door. The only way to know was to cut away the old wallpaper and take a look.

A door here might be further proof that the room was once a kitchen.

Ikenouye is one of a handful of University of Oregon students carefully peeling back the layers of the 1880s-era farmhouse to better understand the structure before it gets demolished. The university’s architecture department has devoted an entire class to the topic: “Oregon Vernacular: Investigation of the Briggs Farmhouse.”

“I think of it as the story of the house, when it was built, how it was built, how it was used,” Ikenouye said.

From the outside, the house looks in no way remarkable. Covered by ubiquitous grooved plywood siding, there’s no hint that it is, at nearly 130 years, the oldest structure on the Dorris Ranch, a historic and still working filbert farm just south of Springfield’s downtown.

Old and still solid The students, under the guidance of instructors Liz Carter and Larry Wikander, as well as Kingston Heath, head of the UO’s historic preservation program, have been spending their Sundays at the house and have discovered a structure in surprisingly good shape that may be older than anyone had previously guessed.

It’s known as the Briggs house because it was once owned by the Briggs family, who were employed as orchardists on the farm. But the house was built by homesteaders Marietta and George Thurston, although no one knows just when.

The Dorris family moved into it when they first came to the property in 1892.

While the house may be historically significant, it has been reviewed and found wanting, said Greg Hyde, planning and development manager for the Willamalane Park and Recreation District, which owns and manages the 258acre property.

Inmates help save Multnomah sheriff’s deputy with first aid The Associated Press PORTLAND — Two jail inmates who gave first aid to a stricken Oregon sheriff’s deputy are being credited with helping to save his life.

The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office said the deputy and an inmate work crew were helping a stranded motorist in the Portland area when the deputy needed medical assistance Friday afternoon.

James Parker and Michael

Smith began cardiopulmonary resuscitation with assistance from a 911 dispatcher and a doctor who stopped to assist until emergency crews arrived.

The sheriff’s office said the deputy is a 25-year veteran but asked that his name not be immediately released while he recovers.

Officials say quick thinking and immediate action by the inmates helped save his life.

Preservation consultant Liz Carter peels back faded wallpaper to examine the original plank siding of a 19th-century farmhouse on the Dorris Ranch property in Springfield. A University of Oregon class is examining the nearly 130-year-old house before it gets demolished.

A master plan for the Dorris Ranch concluded that the high cost of restoring the house probably isn’t justified, Hyde said. The consultants who wrote the master plan suggested that the property be reviewed by the state Historic Preservation office, and that review concluded that the house doesn’t merit listing on the National Register of Historic Places, Hyde said.

Willamalane had been considering allowing the fire department to burn it down as a training exercise, to clear the property in preparation for an interpretive center on the site. That’s when the UO instructors proposed documenting what was there before it was removed forever.

Willamalane agreed to the proposal, spokesman Mike Moskovitz said.

The information gathered by the students will be used by the Dorris Ranch staff in its efforts to create an authentic picture of farm life in the valley, Moskovitz said.

The students will get invaluable hands-on learning as they carefully remove siding, false ceilings and old wallpaper to reveal the original structure, Carter said.

When the exterior T1-11 siding was pulled off, for example, students found both shiplap and weather board siding, But underneath that was a startling discovery. The house was built using a technique more common in the 1850s and 1860s than in the 1880s.

Box building Called box construction, it looks nothing like the stud walls of today. Back then, the builders nailed wide planks vertically to a bottom sill and a top plate to form a solid though thin wall that had structural integrity.

The bottom sills, heavy timbers 7 inches by 11 inches thick, were hand-hewn, not milled. On some, the bark is still visible, said UO architecture student Michael Fischer, who explored the foundation with fellow student Chris McLean.

The outer layers hiding the vertical planks have done a good job of protecting the old wood, he said.

Inside the house, Carter and Ikenouye teased out the uses of the rooms, concluding that the current bathroom probably was the kitchen before an addition

to the house — using stud frame construction — relocated it.

Whether the house is worth the cost of preserving it is a tough question to answer.

While the house is slated for removal, the park district is willing to consider other options beside simply burning it, Hyde said.

Bend plans to douse streets to curtail dust 100 years ago 100 YEARS AGO For the week ending May 1, 1910 STREETS TO BE SPRINKLED The dust nuisance on the streets of Bend is to be checked.

Commencing probably next week a sprinkler will make daily trips through the business section of the town, stopping once and for all the disagreeable dust clouds and adding another attraction to Bend’s list.

Barney Lewis will have charge of the work using his big city dray team to haul the 600-gallon tank sprinkler he is having constructed. By popular subscriptions $157.50 already has been guaranteed for the work monthly, this amount having been subscribed by 31 persons on the list at this time.

Commencing at the Lucas barn, Wall Street will be watered to the First National Bank corner. Minnesota to Bond Street and thence around Bond and down Oregon to Wall Street will be the extent of the district covered at the outset. Should this initial experiment prove the success anticipated, more extensive plans may be undertaken later. It is understood that a special effort will be made to get the sprinkling apparatus into operation and the dust well laid before Tom Richardson’s arrival next Tuesday.

REMEMBER On next Wednesday evening at 8 p.m. in Lara’s hall, Tom Richardson of Portland speaks to the citizens of Bend. This is his first visit to the Deschutes Valley; he is the most influential “booster” in the Northwest; he is one of the best speakers in all the West; he is coming to Bend to talk to every citizen of Bend. The meeting will be interesting and it will be worthwhile. Let everyone be there, and let everyone pass the word along.

Particularly let all remember that this is to be Bend’s biggest and best boosting meeting and come well charged with enthusiasm.

HILL TO INSPECT DESCHUTES? James J. Hill, accompanied by Louis Hill and a party of eastern bankers interested in the Hill railroad development, are on their way from St. Paul to Portland. It is believed that the chief object of their visit is to tour the Central Oregon country now being opened up by the Oregon Trunk road, preparatory to announcing even broader plans of Oregon transportation development.

75 YEARS AGO For the week ending May 1, 1935 STATE HOUSE IS DESTROYED IN NIGHT FIRE Salem — Oregon’s historic capitol building, home of the state offices since 1876, was de-

Y E S T E R D AY stroyed by fire last night.

Flames swept through the building, towering nearly 200 feet above the green lawn which surrounded it. Priceless relics of early-day Oregon went up in flames, and only the shell of the old building remained today.

Records, furnishings and office equipment valued at hundreds of thousands of dollars were destroyed.

The state carried no insurance on the building, relying only on a small restoration fund.

Governor Martin, who was in Medford with a group of state officials last night, hurried home this morning to call a special session of the legislature to appropriate a sum possibly in the millions for a new state house.

Application for federal money will undoubtedly be made to Washington immediately.

The lawmakers will probably meet in the Salem armory or in a local theater auditorium.

House and Senate chambers, which were in the state house, were destroyed.

Records saved from the offices of Secretary of State Snell and State Treasurer Holman were stored in the armory and in university buildings.

So great was the confusion while records were being moved from the offices before the fire gained real headway that it is not definitely known how much was saved. The vaults are expected to have reserved many valuable documents, however.

GERMANY PLANNING TO BUILD SUBMARINES TOO London — Germany has notified Great Britain that she intends to complete her violation of the Versailles treaty military clauses by building a fleet of submarines, it was said on reliable authority today.

News of the submarine plan — which was denied by a government spokesman in Berlin — came as Great Britain was planning to hold informal naval limitation talks with Germany here.

50 YEARS AGO For the week ending May 1, 1960 SHE HAS GOOD REASON FOR INTEREST IN AREA

By Phil F. Brogan Howard Belton, candidate for the Republican nomination as state treasurer, was in Bend today accompanied by a person keenly interested in and well acquainted with the region.

She is Mrs. Belton, niece of Bill Brown, an early-day Central Oregon stockman known in the World War I days as the “horse king of America.”

Mrs. Belton is the daughter

Weekly Arts & Entertainment Fridays In

of George Brown, who for several years worked on the Bill Brown horse and cattle domain that had its capital at a ranch on Buck Creek.

Bill Brown in early days was the owner of some 10,000 head of horses. Brown also raised sheep and cattle.

Mrs. Belton never had the opportunity of visiting the stock empire of her uncle — an empire that shrunk and disappeared after World War I. However, from her father and uncles, she heard much about the huge ranch that sprawled across the Central Oregon plateau.

Belton, who served as state representative for two years and state senator for 22 years, does not plan any extensive preprimary campaign.

TIM ARBOW TOP ANGLER Tim Arbow, son of Mr. and Mrs. Jim Arbow, was winner of the Jaycees’ 1960 Mirror Pond trout derby with the 21-inch Brown he caught Saturday.

Second place honors went to Mark Carlton, 6, with a Brown that was 18½ inches long. Third place honors were won by Sam Myers, 10, with a 16½-inch Brown.

THE HIGHWAY COMMISSION INTENDS TO MOVE HIGHWAY 97 OUT TO THIRD STREET The news will be welcomed by some and disapproved by others.

It will be welcomed because it will enable the city to make definite plans for the future.

Disapproval will come from downtown merchants who feel tourists should drive by their stores.

25 YEARS AGO For the week ending May 1, 1985 LOTTERY DRAWS SWARM SEEKING POT OF GOLD As balloons opening the first game of the Oregon State Lottery soared out of sight Thursday, so did gambling fever in Central Oregon.

Within minutes after the game began, thousands of residents were crowding retail outlets to plunk down $1 per rub-off ticket for a chance at winning prizes from $2 to $5,000.

Robert Breen of Bend bought only three tickets and won $5,000.

Lottery officials estimate 60,000 to 70,000 tickets were sold Thursday in Deschutes, Jefferson and Crook counties.

Many retailers said they were shocked at the number of lottery players pouring into their stores.

“We have no signs; we have not done any advertising, and I’ve got people coming in here I’ve never seen before,” said Ray Holmberg, owner of Wagner Mall Liquor Store in Bend.

Holmberg figured 1,500 tickets would last him two weeks, but he sold more than 600 tickets within the first two hours.

The Safeway store in Bend set up a special checkstand just for those buying lottery tickets.

In Madras, Redmond and Prineville, people were standing in lines to buy tickets.

“We sold 315 tickets, and we are six miles out of town,” said Leah Whitmore, manager of Crystal Corral Park near Prineville.

Win or lose, residents seemed happy just to have a chance to play the lottery.

“Everybody was just happy-go-lucky, just enjoying playing the game,” said Butch Rogers, who sold 700 tickets in his Prineville store, the Pine Grocery.

Vern Skaar, owner of Sisters Market, said he got a thrill when the Hostess delivery man bought a winner.

“I’ll be danged if he didn’t hit for $100,” Skaar said.

But some residents looked at the odds — ranging from 1 in 10 for a $2 winner to 1 in 60,000 for a $5,000 ticket — and resisted the temptation to take a shot.

Harry Jarvis of Bend, saying he was “ the lousiest gambler in the world,” sipped a beer in the West Side Tavern and watched others scratch away their money.

“I bought 20 and didn’t have one winner,” said Ken Weston, owner of the tavern, who switched to playing darts.

‘Quiet Heroes’ photo exhibit celebrates elderly survivors

By Anna Gorman Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Their expressions are solemn, their smiles subtle, their postures proud. One clenches his fists in the air, another stares intently at the Bible.

There is a 96-year-old former Thai tennis champion who helped found the Wat Thai Temple in North Hollywood, Calif.

An 88-year-old Polish woman who helped hide Jews during World War II. An 88-year-old Iranian professor who said, “Tragedy has made my softer skin hide behind a harder one.”

Their photographs and stories are part of a new exhibit called “Quiet Heroes/Over 80.” The exhibit at the L.A. Artcore Brewery Annex near downtown Los Angeles runs through Sunday. The photographer, Barry Shaffer, said he wanted to create a tribute to people who have endured war and conflict, left homes behind and survived in a rapidly changing world.

“They have lived long lives, they have emigrated here, created families, created communities,” Shaffer said. “They have coined the ‘American dream.’”

There are 37 intimate blackand-white portraits — 34 of immigrants from around the world, including Vietnam, Australia, El Salvador and Armenia. There are also two African-Americans in the exhibit and one Native American, a descendant of the

original settlers who founded Los Angeles.

They include teachers, religious leaders, delivery people, civil servants, factory workers, authors and doctors. They are all from the Los Angeles area.

Many have great-grandchildren.

Eight have died since being photographed.

Shaffer said the project was his “naive” way of trying to find some answers about why there was still so much intolerance and conflict around the world.

Shaffer said that among the recurrent themes he heard in conversations with his subjects were the importance of strong leaders, faith and education.

Late last week, Nlongi Mfwilwakanda, 88, from the Congo, held on to his walker and looked around the room at the portraits.

“I see people who have fought to open doors of consideration and acceptance of one another,” he said.

tree farm — and how she could see Pilot Butte in the distance.

“I think it’s really cool,” said Marie, 10. “And I think they’re going to put a bunch more fields in, because there’s a lot of dirt.”

The park district intends to add an additional five soccer fields and two softball/baseball fields, as well as lighting for nighttime play, but has yet to identify funding for the second phase.

Kiera Gregg and Emily Antoni, both 9 and players for the Stars, another team that played Saturday, said the dirt at Pine Nursery smelled and felt different from the other fields. Even though they lost to the Warriors, getting to play the first game on a brand-new field was a lot of fun, Emily said.

“It’s beautiful out here,” she said. “We tried to win, but we didn’t. We all worked hard.”

Brittany Kerneen, 19, the assistant coach for the Wave, said the bleachers at the new fields bring the spectators much closer to the game. At Harmon Park, parents either watch the game from their cars or spread out up and down the sidelines for lack of places to sit, she said, but at Pine Nursery, they can pack in behind home plate to cheer for their kids.

Continued from B1 “It really looks nice. It actually looks better than I expected it to; it looks like one of our better tournament fields,” he said.

“I think people are going to be pretty excited about it.”

Saturday morning, the fields hosted three girls softball games for teams from the Bend Park & Recreation league, a one-time event for teams that play most of their games at Harmon Park. Renee Wells from the park district said the district’s current plan is primarily to use the Pine Nursery fields for tournaments and adult softball this summer, though field scheduling will probably change from year to year.

Players said it was exciting to get to play on a brand-new field, even if it was for just one day.

Peyton Cole, 10, said the atmosphere made her feel more confident while pitching her team, the Flames, to a 7-0 victory over the Wave.

“So far, this park is really great,” Peyton said.

Marie Gammond, Peyton’s teammate, said she liked how the fields were ringed with large trees — relics from the property’s past life as a U.S. Forest Service

Irrigation backflow If your backflow preventer is broken, it can let contaminated water from your irrigation system or boiler be drawn back into the same pipes used for drinking water, tainting it with chemicals or pesticides. Valves must be inspected yearly to ensure they are functioning correctly.

Backflow Continued from B1 Ric Olson, water conservation program manager for Bend, said spring is a good time for testing backflow assemblies, before most people have turned on their outdoor sprinkler systems. The freezing and thawing of outdoor pipes during the winter can loosen debris, he said, which could cause a backflow assembly to malfunction later in the year.

“If it does fail for some reason, we’d rather see them tested in the spring so they don’t fail for the whole season,” he said.

If a backflow assembly is not working properly, contaminated water can be drawn into a home’s water system through a sprinkler head, Doerr said. Overwatering or a heavy rainstorm can create pooling around a sprinkler head, he said, where fertilizers, animal wastes, dirt and other contaminates gather.

A running fire hydrant or other incident causing a drop in water pressure inside the home or in the surrounding neighborhood can cause the flow of water to reverse, sucking the pool of contaminated water surrounding the sprinkler head into the home.

“If you didn’t have a backflow assembly on your irrigation line, or if the one on your lines wasn’t working, it could draw the water through your sprinkler head and your irrigation lines,” Doerr said.

“When water pressure picked

back up, it could push it though your drinking water lines, into your house, and you’d be drinking it out of your faucet, whatever came out of your front yard.”

Doerr said 8 to 10 percent of the backflow assemblies he’s tested are not working properly, while Olson said test results submitted to the city show about 4 percent of the units are defective.

Olson said the city doesn’t know of all of the irrigation systems in the city that should include a backflow assembly. Of the 18,800 backflow assemblies the city is aware of — both in residential and commercial buildings — approximately 95 percent submit their annual testing report to the city, Olson said.

“I attribute that low number to, in the city of Bend, folks are fairly diligent,” Olson said, noting there is no penalty for failure to conduct the annual test. “Whether it’s your car or your backflow system, the better you maintain it, the longer it’s going to last.”

A standard backflow assembly test is usually around $35, Doerr said, and seldom requires any assistance from the homeowner.

“Almost all of the time, 95 percent or better, the homeowner doesn’t have to be there,” he said.

“You get the people that want to be there and want to see how it’s done, and I accommodate them, but they don’t really need to be there.”

Audit criticizes California’s plans for high-speed rail

By Marisa Lagos San Francisco Chronicle

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — California’s plan to build a highspeed rail system could be in jeopardy because the state agency overseeing the $42 billion project hasn’t figured out how to secure enough money, according to an audit released Thursday.

The High Speed Rail Authority also suffers from lax oversight, poor management and insufficient planning, according to the report by state Auditor Elaine Howle.

Howle determined the agency needs to figure out alterna-

tive business plans because the planned funding — including billions in anticipated state and federal dollars and private financing — may not all work out.

The authority is charged with building the 220-mph train system between the Bay Area and Southern California by 2020.

The audit was requested by the Joint Legislative Audit Committee, made up of members of the state Senate and Assembly.

Many of its findings are similar to a report issued by the nonpartisan Legislative Analyst’s Office in January.

play, Tami Potts said she was impressed by the new fields, and the park district’s willingness to build new fields. Getting a large park like Pine Nursery built during an economic downturn must have been difficult, she said, but families like hers that use the parks regularly know the demand is there.

“It’s a gorgeous facility,” Potts said. “I’m glad to see it; there’s so much need in Bend, and it’s being used. I understand it’s pretty booked.”

Scott Kirksey, coach of the Stars, said he didn’t know what to expect when he came out to the park Saturday morning.

“I was surprised. I drive by Pine Nursery every day and had no clue, no clue it was at this stage,” he said. “It’s awesome.”

A formal grand opening ceremony for the park is tentatively planned for July or August.

Census Continued from B1 “All census employees take a lifetime oath that we do not divulge any personal information that we gather as census employees,” Ollerenshaw said.

Employees can face five years in prison and up to $25,000 in fines for violating the oath, he said.

“We take confidentiality very seriously,” he said.

Tom Szabla, Northwest regional assistant census manager, said census takers will not ask to enter homes, because there will be no need to do so.

It costs approximately $57 for census takers to visit each household. A mailed census

form costs one postage stamp.

As of Tuesday, about 71 percent of households in Deschutes County had mailed back their census forms, according to the census website. About 75 percent of Crook County households had responded, and about 62 percent of Jefferson County households had replied, according to the census. The state’s response rate is 74 percent, compared with the nation’s 72 percent, according to the website.

Census takers will visit homes through the end of June.

Ollerenshaw said census takers will make six attempts to contact people at their homes, either by visits or by phone calls.

People may choose to pro-

vide their data over the phone by calling the Census 2010 help line at 866-872-6868 to avoid visits from census takers, if they have not filled out their form, he said.

As a precaution, Szabla said residents may contact local Census Bureau representatives to make sure they are dealing with the right people.

“They can always call our local Census office, and we can check if they are working for us or if they are legitimate,” Szabla said.

For more information, contact the local Census Bureau office at 541-526-0761.

Cecil Sherman led moderate Baptist faction New York Times News Service The Rev. Cecil Sherman, who despite being “born, bred and buttered a Baptist,” in his own phrase, parted ways with the nation’s predominant Baptist group to lead a new moderate branch of the denomination, died April 17 in Richmond, Va. He was 82.

The cause was a heart attack, said the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship, the organization Sherman helped found and then led for its first five years.

Sherman grew up a Baptist in Texas, was educated mainly at Baptist schools and was already a seasoned minister in 1979 when conservatives began to take over the governance of Southern Baptists. They rejected ordaining women as ministers and believed that every word in the Bible came directly from God and was not open to interpretation.

After Baptists in annual elections had elected 12 straight conservative convention presidents, who then used their position to appoint conservative educators and administrators, a group of moderates broke away in 1990 to form what they called a new fellowship.

It has never called itself a denomination, and many of its affiliated churches remain part of the main convention. The fellowship educates ministers and deploys missionaries, among other things.

In 1991, when Sherman took over as coordinator of the fellowship, 391 churches had given it a contribution of a dollar or more, the only qualification for affiliation. When he left the post in 1996, nearly 1,500 had joined.

Dorothy Provine, film and TV star of 1960s Actress perhaps best known for her role in ‘It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World’

By Bruce Weber New York Times News Service

By Dennis McLellan Los Angeles Times

Dorothy Provine, who played the singing, high-kicking flapper in the early-1960s TV series “The Roaring Twenties” and appeared in the all-star movie comedy “It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World,” has died. She was 75.

Provine, a longtime resident of Bainbridge Island, Wash., died of emphysema April 25 at Hospice of Kitsap County in Bremerton, Wash., said her husband, Robert Day. A former University of Washington drama major, Provine landed the title role in the lowbudget 1958 gangster film “The Bonnie Parker Story” three days after arriving in Hollywood.

The blond actress also played the title role in the 1959 movie “The 30-Foot Bride of Candy Rock” opposite Lou Costello and made a string of TV guest shots before landing her first TV series, “The Alaskans,” a 195960 ABC adventure program set in the Alaskan gold rush of the 1890s.

Provine played Rocky Shaw, the saloon-singer friend of fortune hunters played by Roger Moore and Jeff York.

But the Warner Bros. contract player gained far more attention playing Pinky Pinkham, the singing and dancing star attraction at a high-end speakeasy in the 1960-62 ABC series “The Roaring Twenties,” a New York City-set newspaper drama with Rex Reason and Donald May as investigative reporters.

Dubbed “TV’s ‘It’ girl” by UPI’s Rick Du Brow in 1961, Provine told the writer she “wanted to play the flapper in this show so badly that I’d go home and pray.”

“When the studio was looking for the girl for the flapper part in ‘The Roaring Twenties’ and asked me if I could dance, I said, ‘Yeah.’ I worked like a dog at home getting the Charleston as fast and frantic as I could. The secret is that I put on 33 rpm records at 78 rpm speed.”

While still under contract to Warner Bros., Provine was lent out to play Jack Lemmon’s wife in the 1964 movie comedy

Provine, best known for her roles as Milton Berle’s wife and Ethel Merman’s daughter in “It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World” and the highkicking flapper in the 1960s TV series “The Roaring Twenties,” died April 25 at age 75.

“Good Neighbor Sam,” and she played Milton Berle’s wife and Ethel Merman’s daughter in “It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World.”

She also teamed with George Burns in a nightclub act that played Las Vegas in the summer of 1963.

Among her other film credits are “The Great Race,” “That Darn Cat!,” “Who’s Minding the Mint?” and “Never a Dull Moment.”

Dean Jones, who co-starred with Hayley Mills and Provine in “That Darn Cat!,” recalled having lunch with Provine in the executive dining room at Disney Studios while making the 1965 movie.

“She was kind of like a roman candle, to me,” Jones told The Times on Thursday. “Several times during lunch I’d just sit back and listen and watch her.

She had a quicksilver personality and was always talking about interesting events and stories about her past.

“I felt she was a very underrated actress. She did everything,

New York Times News Service

Furio Scarpelli, a screenwriter who wrote dozens of the Italian cinema’s most caustic and celebrated comedies in a 36year partnership with Agenore Incrocci, earning three Oscar nominations, died Wednesday at his home in Rome. He was 90.

The cause was heart failure, his son Matteo Scarpelli told The Associated Press.

Scarpelli and Incrocci (who died in 2005 and was known as Age), billed as “Age and Scarpelli,” collaborated on a series of comedies that simultaneously satirized and celebrated the average Italian’s capacity for survival under adverse, rapidly changing circumstances — from the chaos and devastation

left behind by World War II to the greed and materialism engendered by Italy’s “economic miracle” of the 1950s and ’60s.

They worked with all the major directors who made up what came to be known as the “Commedia all’italiana” movement, including Mario Monicelli (in the 1958 film “I solti ignoti,” which became an international hit as “Big Deal on Madonna Street”), Pietro Germi (“Seduced and Abandoned,” 1964), Dino Risi (“I Mostri,” 1963), Luigi Comencini (“Tutti a casa,” 1960) and Ettore Scola (“We All Loved Each Other So Much,” 1974).

Scarpelli and Incrocci received Academy Award nominations for “The Organizer” (1963) and “Casanova ’70” (1965), both directed by Monicelli. In 1996, Scarpelli was one

By Emma Brown The Washington Post

J. Robert Porter Jr., founder of what was once one of the largest satellite imaging companies in the United States, died April 23 at his home in Washington of Parkinson’s disease. He was 75.

In 1969, Porter began Earth Satellite Corp., or EarthSat,

which sold information and maps gleaned from satellite technology. Its customers included 200,000 farmers, energy futures traders and federal agencies such as the Forest Service.

According to 2001 news reports, the company conducted for the Defense Department the largest land-cover mapping proj-

really. But she was mainly a comedienne and a very funny gal, and you knew in a scene that she was not going to drop the ball.”

Provine was born Jan. 20, 1935, in Deadwood, S.D., and grew up in San Francisco.

In 1969, she married Day, a film and television director.

“When we got married, she wasn’t really interested in acting or being in the movies anymore,” Day said. “She was a homebody, very much so.”

He said that after they moved to Bainbridge Island in 1981, “I still made some television shows, but Dorothy was totally retired. She loved working in the garden until she got sick.

Her love was that and animals, particularly dogs.”

His wife enjoyed the quiet life, he said, “and she loved Bainbridge. It’s still reasonably rural, which we love.”

In addition to her husband and their musician son Robert, Provine is survived by her sisters, Susan Cameron and Patricia Coldiron.

of five writers nominated for an Oscar for the adapted screenplay of “Il Postino,” directed by Michael Radford, about a friendship between the Chilean poet Pablo Neruda and a local postman.

In 1966, Age and Scarpelli were among the four writers who contributed to “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly,” directed by Sergio Leone, perhaps the most famous of the spaghetti westerns that carried the cynicism of Commedia all’italiana into an imagined Old West.

Walter Murphy, a leading constitutional scholar whose otherwise sober, writerly resume was spiced with commercial fiction, including a best-selling 1979 novel, “The Vicar of Christ,” died April 20 in Charleston, S.C. He was 80.

The cause was cancer, said his wife, Doris Maher Murphy.

Murphy taught in the politics department at Princeton for 37 years, and, from 1968 until his retirement in 1995, he was McCormick Professor of Jurisprudence, a chair whose first occupant was Woodrow Wilson.

By most accounts, he was a revered figure on campus.

One of his students was Samuel Alito, now an associate justice of the Supreme Court, who sought out Murphy to be his adviser for his senior thesis on the highest court in Italy, known as the Constitutional Court.

“He was quite a significant political scientist, one of the pioneers in comparing the work of supreme or constitutional courts in different countries,” Justice Alito said in a telephone interview Friday.

Murphy wrote a number of books on the intersection of politics and law, including “Elements of Judicial Strategy” (1964), which used internal Supreme Court documents to illustrate how justices cajoled and wheedled one another in attempts to form majority coalitions on cases, essentially arguing that judges cannot help being policyoriented.

His magnum opus, “Constitutional Democracy: Creating and Maintaining a Just Political Order” (2006), was an exhaustive study of the kind of government prevalent in Europe and North America that Murphy called a hybrid — a melding of pure democracy, in which the people rule themselves, and a constitutional government, which distrusts the majority’s “benevolence toward those who are ‘different’ from or compete against them.”

“He was a major scholar,” said Fred Greenstein, a longtime colleague of Murphy’s at Princeton and the author of several books of political history, including “the presidential Difference: Leadership Style from FDR to Barack Obama.”

“First of all, he was a pioneer in the area of studying the inner workings of the Supreme Court. And then later, when he turned to constitutional analysis — an area that already had a mountain of literature — he produced this enormous work of codification and synthesis,” said Greenstein.

Merkley

Thursday’s meeting with Timothy Geithner was Sen. Jeff Merkley’s first one-on-one sit-down with the Treasury secretary since he was confirmed.

Continued from B1 “I used to think it would give me an hour before my first meeting,” Merkley said. “Then my team started scheduling 8 o’clock meetings.”

Merkley said he got lucky on Thursday — until late afternoon on Wednesday, he was scheduled to give a one-hour speech and then spend two shifts presiding over the Senate.

Working breakfast, then constituents Merkley went straight to a breakfast of Oregon lawmakers that was closed to the press.

Afterward, Merkley said the members discussed a range of Oregon issues, including the looming Klamath River basin drought, renewing county timber payments and the federal obstruction of several wind farms in the Columbia Basin.

Most days, Merkley prefers a toasted bagel, usually cinnamonraisin, with cream cheese for breakfast, he said.

“I don’t like un-toasted bagels,” he said. Today, there was no toaster at the Oregon delegation breakfast, though, so he made do.

He resurfaced in his office at about 9:15, for his weekly coffee with constituents. The roughly two dozen visitors included a group of fire chiefs in town to lobby lawmakers, a delegation from Oregon Health and Science University and a couple in town on vacation.

Merkley slowly circled the room, shaking hands and speaking to each group for a few minutes before moving on.

Ian Ruder was in town for a lobbying push by wheelchair users for changes in Medicare that would make it easier for people with disabilities to get the equipment they need. Ruder, a freelance reporter who uses an electric wheelchair, said he knew most of the work on the issue would be done by Merkley’s staff, but he wanted to make a brief pitch to the senator anyway.

“We’ve come, what, 3,000 miles?” Ruder said. “Might as well show your face.”

Just after 10 a.m., Merkley was off to a Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee hearing on the reauthorization of federal education programs.

As he walked into the hearing, a staffer handed Merkley a folder containing an opinion column he was co-authoring with Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., to promote their amendment to the financial reform bill that will be debated this week.

More on that later.

Merkley also carried a slim blue binder that contained his day’s schedule and an array of memos and briefing materials to get him quickly up to speed on some of the issues he’d encounter throughout the day.

At the HELP Committee hearing, Merkley was the sixth senator to arrive. He took his seat, third from the end, next to Sen. Al Franken, D-Minn. Merkley, who arrived a few minutes after the hearing began, didn’t given an opening statement or ask any questions.

About 45 minutes later, Merkley ducked out to prep for a meeting with Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner on his financial reform amendment.

Merkley and Levin proposed tightening some of the restrictions on banks compared to the bill proposed by Sen. Chris Dodd, D-Conn. They hadn’t released the

Keith Chu The Bulletin

text of their amendment on Friday, but released a similar proposal last month as a stand-alone bill. As described by Merkley and his staff, the measure would ban banks from using their own resources to invest in stocks or more complicated financial products. It would also outlaw the kinds of conflicts of interest that led the Securities and Exchange Commission to sue Goldman Sachs last month for marketing investments that were partially assembled by an investor who was betting against those products.

Back in his office, Merkley huddled with advisers for a few minutes before Geithner, with two aides and a pair of security guards in tow, stepped into the office. It was Merkley’s first oneon-one meeting with Geithner since the Treasury secretary was confirmed, according to Merkley’s aides. The meeting was closed to The Bulletin.

By 11:45, Geithner dashed off, while Merkley debriefed with his top advisers. According to Merkley, Geithner had concerns about parts of the amendment, such as how it would impact insurance companies, which often own their own banks and also make investments in stocks.

“The challenge for us is to keep it simple enough and the lines bright enough,” while working to address Geithner’s concerns, Merkley said.

Security talk and more financial reform A few minutes later, Merkley swept through three meetings with Northwest companies and banks: Williams Controls, which makes gas pedals for trucks and other large equipment, railroad car manufacturer and owner Greenbriar Companies and representatives from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle. Each group pushed for funding or law changes to benefit its business.

The bank meeting was typical. The bank’s top officials asked Merkley to support an exemption for the bank from the financial reform legislation coming to the Senate floor. Merkley listened attentively but didn’t make any promises.

“I can tell you I will wrestle with it,” Merkley said. “I don’t feel I understand it well enough to make a decision today.

At 12:55 p.m., Merkley made his way to the Capitol for the weekly lunch of Senate Democrats. He took the stairs up to the second floor, as a way to stretch his legs.

“I just can’t work exercise into the schedule,” he said.

As Merkley chatted with a reporter outside the Democratic lunch, the Udall cousins — Sen. Tom Udall, D-N.M., and Sen. Mark Udall, D-Colo., lightly heckled him.

“Merkley! Follow Merkley!” the pair mock-yelled behind his back.

While his normal lunch consists of half of a chicken salad sandwich, Merkley ate better at the party lunch. The menu was fish, broccoli, jello and a

chocolate chip cookie.

The weekly lunch was open to senators only, but the highlight was a question-and-answer session with Joint Chiefs Chairman Adm. Mike Mullen. Mullen answered members’ questions about security threats around the globe.

An hour later, after lunch, Merkley’s staff informed him he had an offer to appear on the MSNBC show “Hardball with Chris Matthews,” to discuss his financial reform amendment.

Merkley did a series of telephone interviews from his desk — two Oregon radio stations and the Los Angeles Times — all on financial reform.

“Greetings, this is Jeff Merkley,” he introduced himself to a radio host in Grants Pass, as he does in nearly every telephone conversation.

To explain his amendment, Merkley leaned on two analogies, which he repeated in interviews throughout the day.

First, on the need to prevent banks from making investments in stocks or derivatives using their own capital: “It’s wonderful to store fireworks for the Fourth of July, but you don’t store them in your living room.”

Next, on why investment companies need stronger bans on conflict of interest: “You don’t want a car company selling a car without brakes and then taking out insurance on the driver.”

At 2:55, a Merkley staffer twirled her finger to signal it was time to wrap up his L.A. Times interview.

As he hung up the phone, she told him the Hardball appearance was off — the show decided to focus on immigration reform instead of Wall Street.

That gave Merkley seven minutes to sign off on a quote for a

news release with Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse, D-R.I., sign a photo for a departing intern and take another look at the Levin op-ed.

After taking 10 minutes to interview a potential job candidate by phone, Merkley ushered his staff back into his office to prepare for a strategy session with Levin.

Gesturing at a 2½-page-long paragraph from the Glass-Stegal Act, Merkley said, “This reminds me of when we were doing pension reform in the Oregon House. The first sentence was, I believe, 147 words long and it got worse.”

A few minutes later, Levin and two staffers arrived.

“You’ve got your whole brain trust here!” Levin bellowed as he entered Merkley’s office. That meeting, to go over strategy for advancing their amendment, was also closed to The Bulletin.

Levin left about 30 minutes later.

Next came meetings with the presidents of Eastern and Southern Oregon universities, sandwiched around a conference call with financial reporters to publicize the financial reform amendment. The university presidents both said they came to town to attend the annual Oregon State Society banquet on Friday, with a little lobbying for earmarks on the side.

On the call, Merkley uses the fireworks-in-the-living-room analogy again.

THE BULLETIN • Sunday, May 2, 2010 B7 got another one, from his wife, Mary Sorteberg.

“Hey sweetie, it’s going to be a late night,” he said.

He had one more meeting with an Oregon delegation — this one from Clackamas Community College — before putting in an appreciative call to Interior Secretary Ken Salazar.

“I just wanted to call and say a huge thank you,” Merkley said.

Merkley hung up in time to speed-walk back to the Capitol to give a speech supporting an amendment by Sen. Whitehouse, which would give states the ability to regulate credit card interest rates. The galleries above the chamber were nearly empty, and Merkley, who arrived while Whitehouse was still speaking, was the only other senator there.

Walking back to his office — he goes outside, rather than using the underground tunnels like many senators — Merkley said he doesn’t find the breakneck pace and tight scripting of his days strange.

“The pace in the Oregon Legislature was very similar, so in a way that was good preparation,” Merkley said. “The difference is this doesn’t end after six months. ... But most of the things I’ve done have been pretty intense.”

Asked how the day compared to most, Merkley judged it a success, thanks to the federal money for ReVolt and Klamath farmers.

Still, Merkley said it was short of perfect.

“This was a good day,” Merkley said. “The only thing that would make it a trifecta is if we got word we won the argument with the Defense Department over the wind installations in Eastern Oregon. That would be a perfect afternoon.”

Editor’s note: The next day, Friday, the Department of Defense dropped its objection to the Shepard’s Flat wind farm.

Good news At 4:52 p.m., after wishing good luck to the Southern Oregon University delegation, Merkley called the president of ReVolt, a Portland battery company that won a $5 million federal stimulus grant that morning.

As Merkley finished that call, he got more good news: the U.S. Interior Department decided to award $1.5 million to Klamath Basin farmers to try and head off the impacts of an expected drought this summer.

“This is huge news,” Merkley said. “It’s almost close to a miracle to get this amount of money this quickly.”

Merkley called Greg Addington, executive director of the Klamath Water Users Association, to break the news.

After that call ended, Merkley

The town of Marysville, Mont., is visible from the rubble pile of the Drumlummon Mine. The mine’s current owners announced last month that they had discovered a new vein that could be as rich, or richer, than the first.

Near a Montana ghost town, a gold mine may be reborn

By Kirk Johnson New York Times News Service

MARYSVILLE, Mont. — “They say that history repeats itself,” said Shauna Simpson, standing outside this town’s only retail business, the Marysville House, a bar and restaurant. “I say, ‘Let it.’”

Here, it just might.

Marysville, a dot of a town in the mountains near Helena, was covered in gold dust in its heyday in the late 1800s. It was home to one of the great mother-lode gold and silver fortunes of the West, the Drumlummon Mine. Then it petered out — familiar story — to near ghosttown status through the long decades after the mine closed around 1904. About 70 people still call it home.

Now the curtain is going up on the town’s second act: The Drumlummon’s owners announced last month that they had discovered a new vein that could be as rich, or richer, than the first. If the vein goes deep

into the mountain, following the pattern of the veins the old-timers chased with pick and shovel, the new strike could be worth hundreds of millions of dollars, at least.

A Canadian company, RX Exploration, bought the old claims four years ago, acting on a belief — based partly on reading between the lines of century-old lawsuits and newspaper articles — that the mine still had secrets.

The search led to the Charly Vein, named for the wife of one of the investors.

So, on a recent morning, Ben Porterfield, a consulting geologist for RX, led a reporter and a photographer down the mine shaft to the new diggings. After 10 minutes or so through puddles and mud, he pointed his arm and his headlamp beam to a pile of sheared rock the size of a dining room table — scrap rubble from the blast into the tunnel wall revealing the Charly.

“There’s probably $100,000 of silver and gold right there,”

he said, staring at the scrap pile. The new owners employ 32 workers, with plans to triple that number by year’s end.

Downhill in the town, which once supported about 5,000 people, 26 bars and various eccentric traditions, there is a debate about whether to love this new turn of events or fear it.

To many people in the new West, especially environmentalists, hard-rock metal mines — abandoned by the tens of thousands and in many cases leaking water laced with heavy metals leached from the rock — have become symbols not of gold rush nostalgia but rapacious disregard for the land.

Mine operators say the millions of gallons of water in the mine, some of which contains arsenic, are being cleaned before discharge.

Other residents say they think Marysville will benefit from the mine. The mine built the town, they say, and now once again will be the dominant force.

Putting her money on a life of writing

By David Jasper The Bulletin

Photos by John Gottberg Anderson / For The Bulletin

Astoria’s Cannery Pier Hotel is perched atop pilings that extend 600 feet into the Columbia River beneath the Astoria-Megler Bridge. The 46-room boutique hotel has contributed mightily to reviving tourism in the city.

MORE THAN JUST A PLACE TO SLEEP

There’s a point in Mary Sojourner’s new memoir, “She Bets Her Life: A True Story of Gambling Addiction,” where she quotes Mario Puzo, author of “The Godfather,” who once wrote, “I had to give up gambling at a certain period in my life because I found I could no longer write if I continued gambling.”

Sojourner Mary came across Sojourner that quote the fourth-to-last time she tried to quit gambling, she said, sitting in her Old Bend cottage last week, speaking about her writing life and gambling addiction.

“At one level, my slot machine addiction gave me stories.

On another level, it eventually chewed up my brain enough that I suspected that I was not going to be able to write if I kept going.”

Skip the chain hotels; Oregon is chock-full of lodging with character

By John Gottberg Anderson For The Bulletin

As summer approaches and vacation plans begin to take shape, lodging becomes a major consideration for travelers.

I’m not a person who normally chooses to rest my head at well-known national motel or hotel chains, any more than I am likely to dine at a franchise restaurant. When I travel, as long as I have a choice, I prefer to stay in hotels with distinct character, locally owned and operated inns that are unlike anything I may find elsewhere. Just as each place I visit should stand alone in my memory, so should my lodging be free of any sense of sameness.

Oregon has plenty of unique options in all corners of the state. In the following list, I share a handful of my favorites, ranging from

NORTHWEST TR AVEL Next week: Coeur d’Alene, Idaho historic hotels to luxury boutique hotels, from riverside resorts to rustic treehouse escapes. I haven’t included Portland-area hotels because of the huge variety of options in the state’s metropolitan heart.

The Winchester, Ashland My favorite place to stay in Ashland, home to the renowned Oregon Shakespeare Festival, is The Winchester, where every room is furnished with a volume of “The Complete Works

SPOTLIGHT of William Shakespeare.”

The Winchester has been owned for 28 years by Michael and Laurie Gibbs, who renovated a former college crash pad to create this oversized bed-and-breakfast, restaurant and wine bar. The inn has grown from one house to three, from seven elegant and spacious rooms to 19, and the Gibbs are now assisted by their adult children, who also help to maintain the award-winning gardens surrounding the property.

Winchester Cathedral notwithstanding, “Winchester” is not a Shakespearean name. In fact, it was named in the 1960s after the quirky Winchester Mystery House in San Jose, Calif., because its owners found doors walled over, windows boarded up and stairs within closets.

See Hotels / C4

The Winchester, in the heart of Shakespearean Ashland, comprises 19 rooms in three houses surrounded by award-winning gardens. Owned by the same family for 28 years, it also has an outstanding gourmet restaurant.

Tower Theatre to host Mother’s Day concert A special Mother’s Day concert and fundraiser for Friends of Music, a group that supports Summit High School’s music department, will be held at the Tower Theatre at 3 p.m. May 9.

University of Oregon’s Divisi, an a cappella women’s singing group, as well as On the Rocks, Divisi’s male counterpart, will perform. The Summit High School jazz band will also appear, as well as Summit’s Elite Jazz Singers and orchestra.

Tickets are $25 for adults, $15 for students.

Tickets: 541-317-0700 or www .towertheatre.org. Information about Friends of Music: 541-382-0971 or www.friendsof music-shs.org.

May is membership month for Tower group The Tower Theatre Foundation’s annual spring membership drive is getting a makeover this year. Normally a two-month campaign to recruit and renew members by mail and phone, it will instead be conducted by email during the month of May. “We decided to cast an electronic net as wide and far as possible by using personalized e-mails,” says campaign chair Karen Cammack in a news release. “Our goal is to increase our membership by 15 percent to 450 members.”

The May campaign theme is “Tower Membership: The Best Act in Town.” Memberships start at $75 per household and feature advance notice of upcoming shows, ticket discounts and membersonly receptions and event. New this year is the Marquee Club, a special package of yearlong offers and discounts to a select group of downtown merchants.

The effort is also getting a shot in the arm with a $5,000 matching challenge. Mike and Sue Hollern are hoping to energize both the membership campaign and the many patrons of the Tower by pledging $5,000 if the Foundation can obtain 40 members at the $250 level.

Husband’s flirty e-mail friend How, exactly, do you follow Bill Moyers? getting too close for comfort

By Elizabeth Jensen

New York Times News Service

Dear Abby: I have been married to my husband, “Ted,” for many years. He is a people person with close friends of both sexes. I have never had a problem with his having female friends because I trust him, and because these women are my friends, too.

Recently, however, a woman I’ll call “Ellie” has become infatuated with my husband. At least I think she has, and I need an unbiased perspective. Ted has a separate e-mail account, and he has shown me some of her messages. She calls him “Dearest” and says things like, “You are amazing; you are inspirational; you are my special friend; and you rascal, you.” He either doesn’t reply or is very careful how he does.

Abby, I sense that Ellie is trying to establish a separate relationship with Ted. He and I have discussed it. He thinks it’s funny and we have joked about it, but we’re both becoming uncomfortable around her.

We have mutual friends we see once a month for dinner.

We’d have to explain to them why we want to cut off contact with Ellie. They may understand because Ellie’s flirting has been escalating at these dinners. Am I being paranoid?

— Wondering in Washington Dear Wondering: If you and Ted have both become uncomfortable because of Ellie’s advances, you’re not paranoid.

Yes, you can withdraw from the dinners so you have less exposure to Ellie. But there is another way to handle it. Your husband can inform the woman that her attentions are making him uncomfortable and, if she wants to communicate via email, she do it using your joint account — and block her from his private one.

He makes the plans (even asking me where I’d like to go), but we always end up visiting one of his relatives or friends instead. And I end up doing the same things there I do at home — cooking meals, cleaning, doing dishes and laundry — while Gerald sits and enjoys himself.

The last time I mentioned that we have never been anywhere by ourselves, he seemed to really consider it. The next day he said, “OK, let’s take a cruise.”

Then he said, “I’ll call my brother and see if he and his wife want to come with us!”

Am I wrong in feeling upset that my husband doesn’t care enough to go anywhere with just me or to a place that I want to visit?

expressed by many viewers in recent months, that PBS may be pulling in its horns and shying away from controversy.”

The new program will feature an eclectic mix of reports and interviews, revolving mainly around the economy, health care, the environment and energy, national and international security, as well as high and low culture. Meacham has already recorded essays for the show on the history of anger and hate in American politics, and the religious case for separation of church and state. Meanwhile, Stewart has reported a history of the birth-control pill. She will be the face of the extensive Web site pbs.org/needtoknow, intended to be an integral part of the program, soliciting both input and feedback from the audience.

It appears that your husband doesn’t consider one-on-one time with you to be special, and that IS upsetting. When he suggested inviting his brother and sister-in-law along on the cruise, I hope you responded with a resounding “No!” But if you didn’t, I’m recommending that for your next vacation, YOU make the reservations and plan the destination. After 40 years, you deserve a holiday you can enjoy.

Dear Abby: I have a short question I need an answer to.

How do we know when it’s time to end a relationship and move on?

— Kiki in Texas Dear Kiki: The short answer is when it brings you more pain than pleasure. The longer answer is, when you make a list of the pros and cons in the relationship, and the cons outnumber the pros.

It’s hard to imagine Bill Moyers bantering with a co-host.

But the first thing that jumped out during a recent rehearsal of “Need to Know,” the new Friday night public affairs program on PBS replacing Moyers’, was the repartee between its co-hosts Alison Stewart and Jon Meacham, mixed with bits of irreverence in the script.

“Need to Know” is no “Daily Show With Jon Stewart” by any means, or even the 11 p.m. local news, but there’s no other PBS program likely to let its anchors riff on the name of the Icelandic volcano Eyjafjallajokull. Could PBS, home to “Frontline” and “NewsHour,” be lightening up?

Until “Need to Know” has its premiere on May 7, it’s a work in progress, Shelley Lewis, the executive producer, cautioned, and the kibbitzing may well be trimmed. But the comedian Andy Borowitz will definitely close out each program, with

“Next Week’s News” (one rehearsal segment: “Next week at the box office, here are the Top 5 Tyler Perry movies.”) Lewis said, “To have wit in the show was important for all of us.”

“Need to Know,” which will tape at a new studio at Lincoln Center, arrives to plenty of apprehension from PBS viewers, thousands of whom, riled up by the advocacy group Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting, have already protested.

Their fear: the new hourlong show will fail to live up to the programs it is replacing: “Bill Moyers Journal” and “Now on PBS,” which ran a combined 90 minutes. Moyers, the lion of PBS, wanted, at 75, to step back from the grind of a weekly show, and was set to sign off on Friday, promising to return with specials. “Now” was canceled.

In a March 25 online column Michael Getler, the PBS ombudsman, called the new program “a pretty big gamble for PBS” given the “fear, as

Hotels Continued from C1 In restoring the house in the ’80s, the Gibbses found an additional 11 interior windows and 13 doors to nowhere.

Don’t look for a television.

There is none, and anyway, it’s expected that you’ll either be attending the Shakespeare festival or dining at the inn’s restaurant.

The food is truly gourmet: One night, I enjoyed a tomato, fennel and mozzarella salad, followed by an entrée of char-grilled Hawaiian ono (wahoo) with coconut basmati rice, pineapple sesame spinach and a guava emulsion.

Cannery Pier Hotel, Astoria Perched atop pilings that extend 600 feet into the Columbia River, Astoria’s Cannery Pier Hotel is a 46-room, luxury boutique property that stands directly beneath the towering Astoria-Megler Bridge. Opened in August 2005, it is the linchpin in a tourism revival that has seen Astoria — the oldest community in North America west of the Mississippi River — rediscover some of the prosperity that it once enjoyed when it was known as “the salmon canning capital of the world.”

The Union Fishermen’s Co-operative Packing Co. had closed in 1970 and had been demolished in 1980, leaving behind a deteriorating wooden pier and hundreds of pilings. Portland architect and developer Robert “Jake” Jacob, who was born and raised in Astoria, saw it as an opportunity. He designed a hotel based upon old cannery photos, with the same shapes, window and roof lines, faux smokestacks, exposed steel beams, wrought-iron railings and hanging lights.

The view guided the project from the start. “If people go to a beach hotel where the view is always the same,” mused Jacob, “why not the river, where the view is always changing? No matter where you are, you’re in contact with the river and its traffic.”

Not only does every room face the water, but even the corridors, the exercise area and the Finnishstyle sauna have river views. That goes as well for the lobby lounge, where wine and salmon hors d’oeuvres are served nightly, and local characters such as crab fishermen, actors and historians often make presentations to guests.

Geiser Grand Hotel, Baker City Built in 1889, the Geiser was once the finest inn between Salt Lake City and Seattle. A threestory Italianate Renaissance Revival building with a crowning cupola clock tower, it boasted electricity and the third elevator west of the Mississippi River.

Miners, cattle barons, politicians and international travelers mingled beneath the stained-glass ceiling of its Palm Court.

Time took its toll on the Geiser.

It closed in the summer of 1968 after housing Lee Marvin, Clint Eastwood and other cast members of “Paint Your Wagon,” filmed in this area. The building was almost replaced by a parking lot. But 25 years later, new owners began a painstaking restoration.

It took five years and more than $7 million, but when completed, the Geiser Grand received special acclaim from the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Today, it is the gem of Baker City, a fine 30-room hotel with every modern amenity.

It also has achieved a measure

Built in 1889, Baker City’s Geiser Grand Hotel was once the finest inn between Salt Lake City and Seattle. It was reopened in 1998 after a restoration. with delight from zip-lines.

Calisa J. Pearson / For The Bulletin

Douglas fir trees rise through the Calypso Tree House at the Vertical Horizons resort, on a steep hillside near Cave Junction. The three resort cabins, accessed by trails and bridges, have toilets high in the trees, but bathhouses are on level land. of national fame — or notoriety — because of its reputed ghosts. The most frequently reported sighting is of a woman with long dark hair wearing a long blue gown. Management calls her “the Lady in Blue.” Other women, dressed in flapper-era fashion of the 1920s, have often been seen looking over the dining room from a balcony, where they laugh and sip champagne.

“Not a week goes by that I don’t get some kind of report,” said owner Barbara Sidway. “The fabulous thing about the ghosts is they really don’t frighten anybody.

They just want to have fun.”

Treehouses, Cave Junction area Not far from Oregon Caves National Monument, two separate (and quite different) resorts are built into treehouses. Vertical Horizons is the smaller and more upscale of the two.

Owners Phillip Moskios and Jodie Cowan have constructed three lovely cabins — each of them with a private (albeit elevated) toilet — accessed not by ropes and ladders but by hillside paths and bridges. I stayed in the Calypso Tree House, which has a pitchoozing Douglas fir rising like a giant stake through its heart. It isn’t a big cabin, but it is charming and sufficient for two, with a small re-

frigerator for cold drinks, a table and chairs for card games, and an outside seating area offering views across the owners’ homestead and barn.

Although there are no showers in the cabins, a bathhouse at the foot of the hill provides appropriate facilities. The resort also has a large swimming pool and a certified disc-golf course. Each summer morning, Moskios prepares gourmet breakfasts for guests; in the evening, guests may cook on a large outdoor grill (perfect for steaks) and campfire (for roasting marshmallows).

Vertical Horizons: Milepost 3, Dick George Road, Cave Junction; 541-592-4751, www.tree houseparadise.com. Rates from $220 (summer), $190 (off-season).

A few miles away is Out ’n’ About, which labels itself a “treesort” and “a summer camp for families.” When I dropped by for a visit, I was reminded of the Swiss Family Robinson, with kids climbing rope ladders and screaming

The highlight of Condon, a remote town of 800 people in the heart of the north-central Oregon wheat fields, is the Hotel Condon.

An elegant milestone when it was built in 1920, it fell on hard times after World War II; between 1947 and 1990, it had 14 different owners and housed apartments, bars, a pizza parlor and an arcade before finally being closed.

But a 30-member community group rescued the old hotel in 1999, raising more than $600,000 for its renovation. More than 30 local craftsmen dedicated their time to a thorough renovation, which was completed in late 2001. Where there once were 42 rooms with shared bathrooms, today there are 18 with full private baths. My queen room was equipped with flat-screen cable television and wireless Internet.

A light continental breakfast (coffee, juice and scones) is served in a central library each morning.

Stanley’s Steakhouse restaurant features custom-made wood furnishings, a restored fireplace framed by stained glass and other touches worthy of the Roaring Twenties. A professional staff offers fine service, and hotel manager Gail Stanfield doubles as the chef. On my visit, she prepared an excellent New York steak, cooked medium rare to order, with peppercorns and a brandy cream sauce. Accompanied by a glass of cabernet sauvignon, it was better than I might have dreamed a meal in rural Gilliam County could be.

Rates from $100.

Balch Hotel, Dufur Another rural Oregon surprise is the historic Balch Hotel, 17 miles south of The Dalles on U.S. Highway 197. Built of hand-made bricks in 1907, it was purchased in 2006 by Jeff and Samantha Irwin of Hood River, who continued an ongoing restoration and opened the old three-story hotel in July 2007 (its 100th birthday) as a 20room bed-and-breakfast inn.

The walls, 18 inches thick, keep the building cool during hot summer days. Historical photos line the corridors. When I asked about an old electrical meter on the second floor, Samantha Irwin explained to me that there was once only a single electric line into Dufur, and the hotel had to share it equally with a nearby lumber mill. Guests had lights only during the darker hours of the day.

Now there’s electricity 24 hours a day, of course, but there are no

televisions, radios or telephones.

The intent is to keep the hotel as a quiet getaway, although it does have wireless Internet. Rooms on the south side of the building have private baths, including a Mount Hood view suite with a whirlpool tub. Rooms on the north side share baths. Breakfasts are served daily; dinners are catered on request.

Frenchglen Hotel, Frenchglen The eight-room Frenchglen Inn, 60 miles south of Burns on state Highway 205, was built in 1916, and it hasn’t been significantly renovated since the late 1930s.

C OV ER S T ORY From previous page Even then, it was only to install a couple of bathrooms for guests to share in lieu of outhouses.

A designated Oregon State Heritage Site, the hotel has been owned for 20 years by John Ross, a Bend native who came off a fishprocessing ship in remote Alaska having decided he liked the quiet life. Ross and his wife, Glenda, don’t stray far from the inn between March and November, but they take the winter off to travel a bit and get a taste of city life. The population of Frenchglen, after all, is only 11.

The rooms are tiny and basic.

There are no phones, no TVs, no Internet access. No one locks his or her doors; in fact, guests are not even offered keys. The narrow staircase to the second floor makes you wonder what you’d do in the event of a fire. I suppose the goats that continually bleat from their backyard pen would sound an alarm. But the family-style dinners are wonderful (you must reserve ahead, as the hotel can accommodate no more than 24 diners) and there’s great camaraderie among guests.

Frenchglen Hotel: 39184 state Highway 205, Frenchglen; 541493-2825, www.oregonstateparks .org/park_3.php. Rates from $67; dinners by reservation. Closed Nov. 1-March 15.

Columbia Gorge Hotel, Hood River Hood River’s finest accommodation is the historic Columbia Gorge Hotel, on a blufftop with a cascading 200-foot waterfall just west of town. Originally developed in 1904, it was sold in 1920 to financier Simon Benson, who hired many of the same Italian masons employed in building the Columbia Gorge Scenic Highway. In its ensuing glory years, Presidents Calvin Coolidge and Franklin Roosevelt came to stay, as did many of the movie stars of the era.

Today, the hotel has 39 guest rooms, five of them with fireplaces, all with views either of the magnificent Columbia River Gorge or the colorfully manicured gardens that surround the hotel. Brass or canopy beds may be available on request. Public areas include the fine-dining Simon’s Restaurant and Valentino’s Lounge, named for the silent film-era heartthrob who allegedly stayed here in the ’20s.

Jacksonville Inn, Jacksonville Not many Oregon hotels are older than the Jacksonville Inn, which was built in 1861 during Jacksonville’s Applegate Trail gold rush era. Located five miles southwest of Medford, the town of 2,600 was the first in Oregon to be designated by the National Park Service as a National Historic District. It is acknowledged as one of the West’s outstanding examples of a mid- to late-19thcentury mining and agricultural town, little changed from its heyday, when it was the unrivaled urban heart of Southern Oregon.

There are just eight rooms in the elegant bed-and-breakfast hotel, a landmark building in the heart of town. But each room has a character of its own, individually decorated with western antiques and Victorian-era wallpaper. Best of all is the restaurant, one of the shining stars of the Southern Oregon culinary scene.

Specks of gold are still visible in the mortar of the sandstone walls, and a talented pianist performs most nights.

Adjoining the main dining room are a bistro and a patio for lighter dining. Here’s where I ate most recently. I recommend the cumin-roasted beet salad and sauteed prawns breaded in a hazelnut crust.

Jacksonville Inn: 175 E. California St., Jacksonville; 541-8991900, 800-321-9344, www.jackson villeinn.com. Rates from $159.

Sylvia Beach Hotel, Newport There is no Sylvia Beach; not, at least, as a geographical feature on the Oregon coast. This quaint hotel honors patroness-of-thearts Sylvia Beach (1887-1962), a leader in the Paris literary movement of the 1920s and ’30s. And indeed, this is a hotel for book lovers.

Perched at the top of the hill overlooking Nye Beach in Newport, the primary feature of the Sylvia Beach Hotel is its large upstairs library. It takes up the entire oceanfront side of the third floor of the 1913 cliff house. It is furnished with lots of couches and chairs, as well as a fireplace that burns wood but not books.

a loft above the library. Guests are encouraged to mingle here as well as in the basement’s Table of Contents restaurant, where diners gather at large communal tables.

Gudrun (Goody) Cable bought the house in 1987. She turned it into a charming 20-room inn, with each room dedicated to a different author. You’ll find the Mark Twain Room, the Emily Dickinson Room, the Dr. Seuss Room, the Edgar Allan Poe Room and the Agatha Christie Room, among many others. Each is furnished with the writings of its particular author, as well as photographs and memorabilia. There are no televisions and no phones, but there are private baths and an endless supply of camaraderie.

Steamboat Inn, Steamboat Located on the North Umpqua River, midway between Roseburg and Diamond Lake on state Highway 138, this accommodation is a place of rustic luxury. It sits on the site of a fishing camp frequented

NEWLY D REMODFELLOEOR! CASINO

in the 1930s by Western novelist Zane Grey. The first lodge and cabins were built in 1957 to cater to steelhead fly fishermen; it was purchased in 1975 by its current owners, Jim and Sharon Van Loan.

Seven houses and eight duplex units overlook the river, with another five cottages above tributary Steamboat Creek. I stayed in one of the latter, featuring a loft, a fireplace and an extra-large stepped soaking tub. Huge rhododendron bushes in full pink and purple bloom lined the deck and a lawn that I shared with two other cottages. A grand fir, a yew and a Douglas fir peeked through the windows, all wearing fresh sprigs of spring green.

Dinnertime at the main lodge was a social event. Guests gathered in a library building for 7 o’clock wine and hors d’oeuvres, then shared long tables in the lodge, where gourmet meals are served family style. My first evening, that meant grilled salmon.

The Steamboat Inn retains strong appeal for fishermen. Because the surrounding 31 miles of river are considered one of the premier steamboat streams in North America, they are designated fly-fishing only, catch-andrelease with barbless hooks. Fish

The Lodges There are three great early 20th-century lodges in Oregon: Crater Lake Lodge, the Chateau at the Oregon Caves National Monument and Mount Hood’s Timberline Lodge.

Built in 1915 — only 13 years after Crater Lake was established as a national park — the Crater Lake Lodge faced demolition until it underwent a wholesale renovation between 1989 and 1995.

Today, the lodge is again the showpiece of the park. Its 71 guest rooms, less than half the number it once featured, are suitably spa-

cious, and all have private baths, even if there are no phones or TVs. Guests are encouraged, instead, to look out their windows at the views. The lodge also boasts the only fine-dining restaurant in the national park.

Crater Lake Lodge: Rim Village, Crater Lake National Park; 888-774-2728, www.craterlake lodges.com. Rates from $151.

Opposite the main cave entrance at the Oregon Caves, the rustic Chateau spans a wooded ravine beside Cave Creek, as it has done for 76 years. Its 23 rooms, 1930s-style coffeehouse and finedining room attract guests from around the world. The six-story hotel was built in 1934.

Timberline Lodge, at the 6,000-

foot level on the south slope of Mount Hood, was built at the height of the Great Depression.

Over 15 months of 1936-37, some 350 Works Progress Administration workers assembled the lodge by hand from timbers and rock they found in the mountain wilderness.

It was dedicated by President Roosevelt in 1937 and declared a National Historic Landmark in 1977. Today, Timberline is considered the finest example of a regional style known as “Cascadian,” the high, cathedral-like ceiling of its lodge lobby intended to imitate Mount Hood’s summit.

Timberline Lodge: Government Camp; 503-272-3311, 800547-1406, www.timberlinelodge .com. Rates from $110 (standard rooms from $220).

By Ross Werland Chicago Tribune

Journalist Mark Di Vincenzo, founder of the Business Writers Group, gets into the nitty-gritty of why timing really is everything with his book “Buy Ketchup in May and Fly Before Noon.” The collection is about 170 pages of tips on when it’s best to do just about anything.

Though there are scads of other helpful bits, such as the best time to brush your teeth (an hour after you eat) or the best day of the week to get a vasectomy (Friday), here are some of his travel tips: • Best time of day to fly: noon. According to airline pilots, you will avoid the rush hours and minimize foulweather delays.

• Best day of the week to fly: Saturday. Airlines have fewer flights on Saturdays, meaning shorter lines, fewer delays. I can vouch for this one. I have flown on Saturdays several times and was stunned at how empty the airports were.

• Best month to fly for summer vacation: August. No one knows why, but there are fewer flight delays than in June or July.

Paul and Joann Henrichsen of Bend will be celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary. The couple were married on May 6th, 1950 at St. Thomas Aquinas Church in Reno, Nevada.

On their 50th wedding anniversary, with family and friends the couple reaffirmed their love for each other by being remarried in the same little church they were married in on May 6th, 1950.

They have four children, Paul (and Vonnie) of Clovis, Ca., Pete (and Gina) of Campbell, Ca., Mark (and Melissa) of San Jose, Ca., and Michele (and Brent) of Portland, Or., and seven grandchildren, and six great grandchildren.

Paul was born in Oakland, Ca. and Joann was born in Bellingham Washington. They met in a bakery in San Francisco, Ca. where Joann’s mother had worked, and they have lived in Central Oregon for over 20 years.

Sojourner says, “Here’s the paraThis despite the fact that So-

journer is originally from a “green, rainy” small town near Rochester, New York, where, she says, she was “blessed with a horrible childhood.”

Blessed, that is, because she immersed herself in books and spent a lot of time outdoors, the latter of which has led her to write with a strong sense of place, she says.

As an adult, with a master’s degree in psychology, she worked for years as a counselor while raising three kids herself.

In 1983, she took her first solo trip to Flagstaff, Ariz., because she was fascinated by the Hopi ruins. While there, some new acquaintances told her she had to read Edward Abbey’s novel “The Monkey Wrench Gang.” She bought a copy and read it on the train ride back to New York.

“By the time I got back to Rochester, I thought, ‘OK, I gotta move West, I gotta write and I gotta fight for the earth,’” she says. “That’s basically what I’ve been doing.”

She moved to Arizona in 1985 intent on writing professionally.

And of course, the time came when she gambled.

When the time came to quit, and her mind reeled from withdrawal, “the one thing that got me through was writing, no matter how wacky I felt. If I picked up a pen, especially writing by hand ... it would be clear for the time that I was writing,” she says.

“Writing, for years, has been my lifeline. And at this point in my life, it’s pretty much my life.

I don’t have a whole lot of life outside of writing,” she adds.

“In many ways, gambling, especially gambling in Nevada and in casinos and casino towns, fed me with hundreds of stories. I’ve still got stories to write.”

That’s a safe bet.

BY JACQUELINE BIGAR HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, May 2, 2010: This year, foreigners or different people could play an unusual role. Some of you will become armchair travelers. You are opening up to other belief systems and sometimes strange ideas. If you are single, try to go for someone who isn’t your type, as your type hasn’t worked for you in the past.

At least try it. If you are attached, plan that special, dreamedabout vacation. CAPRICORN has unique ideas. Listen.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHH Your thoughts float to a transforming authority figure or boss. Understand that you also need to adapt. A discussion with a trusted friend helps clarify your thoughts. Tonight: A new beginning becomes obvious.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Making decisions is far easier when you get a sense of the lay of the land. Discuss options with a respected friend who is more than happy to brainstorm. Blaze a new trail. Tonight: Feed your mind; choose a favorite mental pursuit.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH What you thought was certain no longer is, leaving a blank. You must reassess a decision accordingly. An important discussion allows many options.

Adjust. Don’t be a stick in the mud.

Proceed with optimism. Tonight: Dinner with a favorite person.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Others dominate. Their behavior frees up your time.

Call a friend and get together.

The two of you love the noise of the crowd around you. Your instincts are right-on about a close loved one. Tonight: Do go out.

Listen to options, then decide.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH An even pace makes for a relaxing day. Sneak in a snooze or some personal time. Recharge your batteries. Do what is best for you, yet try to squeeze in extra time with a child or loved one. It will be most appreciated and, in the long run, easier. Tonight: Put your feet up.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHHH Let your imagination come out, whether you are playing with a child or simply having a good time with a loved one. This dimension of your personality delights and surprises many. Think positively about someone who has been difficult lately. Tonight: Pretend the weekend is just beginning.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH Others appreciate all that you do; they also respect that you need some time and space.

Be careful about getting started on a “small” renovation project.

It could go on and on. Instead, rent a movie. Tonight: Order in.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH A conversation or event revitalizes your perspective.

Your willingness to take in new information separates you from many. Don’t feel you have to do anything a certain

way. Tonight: Just ask.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Whether paying bills or picking up the tab for brunch, you easily could make an error.

Count your change. Check your figures. Stop at a favorite spot to relax. Some of you might opt for a museum, while many could be happy at a ballgame! Tonight: Get organized for tomorrow!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Others are noticing a new you, though you might scarcely be aware that you are changing.

Note perhaps a strange look or a different reaction. Remain sensitive to a child or loved one. Know that you don’t always have the final word as to the outcome of a situation.

Tonight: Extend a dinner invitation.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Streamline your plans in order to take some much-needed downtime or thinking time. You have been brooding about an issue. Perhaps a discussion with a dear friend could open up your mind. There is a solution or a point of resolution. Tonight: Vanish. Screen your calls.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH Friends surround you.

Should you find yourself alone or with no plans, you could become upset, even if it is your choice. Zero in on what you want and make it happen. Invite a friend to join you for an early dinner. Face facts: Right now you need company and crowds!

Tonight: Where the action is. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

HORSE RACING

Super Saver takes Derby with Borel aboard Jockey wins second straight Kentucky Derby, and gets the first for trainer Todd Pletcher

By Beth Harris The Associated Press

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The starting gate sprung open in the Kentucky Derby, with 19 horses scrambling for position. One jockey knew exactly where he was headed.

Calvin Borel deftly tucked Super Saver along the rail Saturday on a track turned into creamy peanut butter by heavy rain. Once again, he was in his favorite spot, getting a clear path all the way through the goo.

That’s why they call him “Bo-rail” and, for the third time in four years, he took the shortest path

Calvin Borel, riding Super Saver, reacts after winning the 136th Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs Saturday in Louisville, Ky. It was his third win in the last four runnings of the Derby.

Derby results The top three horse from the 136th running of the Kentucky Derby on Saturday: Horse Win Place Show Super Saver $18.00 $8.80 $6 Ice Box $11.20 $8 Paddy O’Prado $6.80 to the winner’s circle.

Borel found only one horse in his way, and once he steered Super Saver around front-running Conveyance, another Run for the Roses was his.

The most wide-open Derby in years ended with a sure thing — Borel crossing the finish line and punching the air with this right fist, this time raising it toward a leaden sky.

Bend ends Madras’ six-game winning streak, but Buffs bounce back in second game of doubleheader Bulletin staff report

Madras senior Turner Gill delivers a pitch in the first game of the White Buffaloes’ doubleheader with Bend.

The Intermountain Conference baseball race is starting to heat up.

Bend High ended Madras’ six-game winning streak on Saturday, topping the White Buffaloes 12-11 in the first game of the two teams’ doubleheader at Bend High. But the Buffs won the second game 14-6 to remain in the hunt for a shot at the IMC title.

Pendleton is alone in first place in the IMC with a 12-3 mark after sweeping The Dalles-Wahtonka on the road Saturday.

The Lava Bears are currently in second with an 11-4 league record and Madras is in third at 10-5.

IMC teams have two three-game series left to play in the regular season.

In game one, Bend (12-8 overall) rallied past the White Buffaloes after trailing 106 after three innings. Kenny Norgaard hit a three-run home run in the bottom of the fourth to help spark a four-run inning, which tied the game 10-10.

Timing was everything at Saturday’s Intermountain Conference softball doubleheader between Mountain View and Crook County.

The host Cougars strung together hits when it mattered in the opener, topping Crook County 2-1. The Cowgirls capitalized on Mountain View errors, though, in the second game and came away with a 6-3 win.

In the first game, the Cougars (7-8 IMC) scored first and took a 1-0 lead in the bottom of the first inning. Crook County tied the game 1-1 in the top of the fourth and the score remained unchanged until the bottom of the sixth inning, when Mountain View’s Megan McCadden singled home the go-ahead run.

“It was just a matter of putting together hits at the right time,” said Mountain View coach Alana Dusan, whose team won despite recording just three hits.

Mikayla Bateman picked up the win for the Cougars after holding Crook County to just one run and four hits.

The Cowgirls (5-10 IMC) rebounded in the second game, though, grabbing a 3-1 lead after the third inning. Crook County turned timely hits and four Cougar errors into three runs, which proved to be the difference in the day’s second game.

“We did a better job of pitch selection and putting the ball in play (in the second game),” explained Cowgirl coach Tom Decker.

Emily Gannon earned the victory in the circle for Crook County in game two. Gannon limited Mountain View to five hits and never allowed the Cougars to score more than one run in an inning.

McKenna Ontko paced the Cowgirls’ offense with a double in the second game. Decker also noted that Crook County benefitted offensively and defensively from freshman catcher Alisen Neashem.

Turmoil has Oregon searching for balance

New York Times News Service

EUGENE — As the Oregon football team scrimmaged on a recent morning under overcast skies at Autzen Stadium, Jeremiah Masoli stood on the sideline, his hands tucked inside the pouch on the front of his practice jersey and his helmet deposited under the bench behind him.

For more than 90 minutes, Masoli did not take any snaps at quarterback, did not fill in at receiver as he has done at some spring practices, did not do anything more taxing than try to stifle a yawn.

Masoli, the deft operator of one of college football’s most innovative offenses last fall,

Inside • Reports from the Oregon and Oregon State spring games, Page D8 when he led Oregon to the Rose Bowl, was to have been a Heisman Trophy contender for a team that was expected to be in the hunt for a national title. Perhaps, as it did for Joey Harrington nearly a decade ago, Oregon would have plastered a billboard of Masoli on a Manhattan building.

Instead, he is the face of Oregon athletics for a different reason: a program run amok.

Oregon’s Jeremiah Masoli, left and LaMichael James sit during practice at Autzen Stadium in Eugene on April 21. Both players face suspensions for off-the-field issues.

S B Baseball • Pitcher throws shutout as Ducks beat Cougars: Senior right-hander Justin LaTempa was nearly untouchable on Saturday night at PK Park, tossing a complete-game, one-hit shutout as the Ducks evened their series with the Cougars after a 6-0 victory in Eugene. LaTempa (4-2), threw the first complete game of his collegiate career at Oregon, and also dealt a career-high 10 strikeouts as a record crowd of 3,791 cheered him on. The Ducks now improve to 29-14 on the season and 9-8 in the Pac-10, while Washington State drops to 22-16 overall and 6-8 in league play.

• Beavers fall to Golden Bears: Tyler Smith doubled twice and the Oregon State baseball team held two early leads, but the Beavers lost to No. 23 California, 14-4, Saturday afternoon at Evans Diamond in Berkeley, Calif.

Andrew Susac also had two hits for the Beavers, who dropped their third consecutive game to fall to 21-16 overall this season and 4-10 in Pacific-10 Conference play. Smith doubled twice, doing so in the second and fourth innings.

His second double gave OSU a 3-0 lead, but one that was relinquished in the bottom half of the fourth. Smith also singled in the ninth as he went three-for-four.

Football • Lawsuit says Saints covered up stolen Vicodin: A lawsuit filed by the New Orleans Saints’ former security director accuses the Super Bowl champions of trying to cover up the alleged theft of prescription pain pills from the team’s drug locker. The lawsuit alleges one senior staff member stole Vicodin pills while another was allowed to take an amount indicative of abuse. The lawsuit did not name the senior staff members in question, but head coach Sean Payton issued a statement saying he never abused or stole Vicodin. The coach says he supports the Saints’ stance that the allegations are false and represent an attempt by Geoffrey Santini to extort the team.

Cycling • Leipheimer keeps overall lead at Tour of the Gila: The future of American cycling out-raced the biggest name in the sport during the fourth stage of the Tour of the Gila in Silver City, N.M. Taylor Phinney beat seven-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong and a number of other high-profile riders Saturday, and gave Trek-Livestrong back-to-back victories following Jesse Sergeant’s stirring victory in a time trial. Now the attention shifts to the overall race standings today, where Armstrong’s teammate Levi Leipheimer will try to protect his lead during the 40-lap final stage — dubbed “The Gila Monster Road Race” — in downtown Silver City.

NBA SCOREBOARD

Cavs rally past Celtics Cleveland wins opener of conference semifinals behind LeBron’s 35 points The Associated Press CLEVELAND — LeBron James always soars in the NBA playoffs.

Mo Williams finally rose to the occasion — literally.

Williams delivered his first dunk for Cleveland, a resounding slam that stunned Boston’s Paul Pierce, shook the arena and ignited the Cavaliers, who rallied for a 101-93 victory over the Celtics on Saturday night after being outplayed for much of Game 1 of the Eastern Conference semifinals.

Williams’ unexpected dunk over Pierce fueled a game-ending 43-24 spurt by the Cavs.

“I knew Mo could dunk,” James said of his teammate, generously listed as 6-foot-1. “I told Mo a long time ago if he ever dunked in a game it was going to spark us like we haven’t been sparked before. Not only did it fire the team, it fired himself up.”

Hours before receiving his second straight MVP award, James scored 35 points and Williams added 20, 14 in the third quarter.

James, playing with a sprained and bruised right elbow, delivered yet another memorable performance as the Cavs withstood a furious punch from the Celtics, who led by 11 in the third.

James, who also had seven rebounds and seven assists, drained a three-pointer with 22 seconds left to put Boston away.

“It’s been better,” James said of his elbow. “But that’s no excuse for me. I don’t make any excuses and I’ll be ready for (Game 2) Monday.”

Rajon Rondo had 27 points and 12 assists and Kevin Garnett finished with 18 points and 10 rebounds for the Celtics, who were held to 15 points in the fourth quarter.

James, who seemed to be bothered by the elbow early on, picked it up down the stretch.

After Rondo split a pair of free throws with 4:30 left, James drove the lane and missed a short shot but grabbed his own rebound and banked it in to put the Cavs ahead 94-91.

Garnett’s bucket got the Celtics within one, but James countered with a floater in the lane. After Paul Pierce missed a wide-open three-pointer, Shaquille O’Neal, who looked slow and every one of his 38 years during stretches, scored on a tip to make it 98-93 with 1:02 remaining.

Following a Boston turnover, James came up with the decisive blow. Pulling up on the left side, he buried a three-pointer that finally allowed 20,000 Cleveland fans to exhale and scream their lungs out.

“He’s a guy that is going to deliver,” Cavs coach Mike Brown said. “As the game went along he got more aggressive and the shots started to fall.”

TENNIS ROUNDUP

Nadal pulls out win at Rome Masters The Associated Press

Nam Y. Huh / The Associated Press

Chicago Blackhawks’ Jonathan Toews (19) and Vancouver Canucks’ Alexander Edler (23) reach for the puck as Canucks’ goalie Roberto Luongo looks on during the second period of Game 1 of a Western Conference semifinal playoff series Saturday in Chicago.

Luongo, Canucks win opener over Blackhawks The Associated Press CHICAGO — Roberto Luongo was ready from the instant the first puck dropped. He put last year’s playoff debacle at the United Center behind him, established his presence early and helped the Vancouver Canucks win their semifinal opener.

Luongo had 36 saves, and the Canucks scored two momentum-shifting goals — one late in the first and one early in the second — to rout the Chicago Blackhawks 5-1 Saturday night.

After clinching its openinground series against the Kings last Sunday, the Canucks were raring to go. Luongo made 17 saves in the first period to set the tone.

“It was nice to start that way.

No doubt about it. That being said, it was only one game,” Luongo said.

“I haven’t played in a week, so it was nice to get that kind of work early in the game, to get that comfort level back right away. After that I felt like normal.”

Luongo gave up seven goals in his previous playoff appearance at the United Center a year ago when Chicago beat the Canucks in the clinching Game 6, including three to Patrick Kane.

Kane netted another goal Saturday night during a two-man advantage early in the third, but it came after the Canucks were already ahead 5-0.

Luongo said last year’s debacle that left him in tears didn’t play a part in his performance and didn’t make this win any more meaningful.

“Nothing, Nothing to me,” he said. “We’re here to win four

games. We’re not here to win one. There’s no satisfaction for me personally.”

The Canucks stunned the Blackhawks with two goals in less than a minute — Mason Raymond scored with 10.5 seconds left in the first period, and Henrik Sedin made it 3-0 just 32 seconds into the second.

“What hurt them was obviously that last goal at the end of the first period and that first goal at the beginning of the second period,” Vancouver coach Alain Vigneault said. “That took maybe a little bit of momentum away from them.

“The difference probably in tonight’s game was we were able to finish and they couldn’t finish,” he added. “Our goaltender shut them down and we were able to get to theirs. ... They had some Grade A chances and our goaltender bailed us out.”

Christian Ehrhoff, Kyle Wellwood and Michael Grabner also scored for the fast-skating Canucks against rookie goalie Antti Niemi, who faced 25 shots and was pulled after two periods with Chicago trailing 5-0. Cristobal Huet came on in relief.

Game 2 is Monday night in Chicago.

Also on Saturday: Bruins . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 5 Flyers . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 4 BOSTON — In his first game back since a concussion seven weeks ago, Marc Savard scored on a delayed penalty with 6:08 left in the first overtime to give Boston a playoff victory over Philadelphia. The Bruins took a 1-0 lead in the best-of seven Eastern Conference semifinals. Game 2 is Monday night in Boston.

ROME — Rafael Nadal withstood a serious test from Ernests Gulbis before finally wearing down his 40th-ranked opponent to pull out a 6-4, 3-6, 6-4 win in the semifinals of the Rome Masters on Saturday.

It was the first time in nine matches on clay this year that Nadal dropped a set.

“It was a really hard match and I didn’t play well,” Nadal said. “It’s really difficult to play against Gulbis. His serve was really unbelievable.”

Gulbis didn’t allow Nadal his usual rhythm on his return game and the Spaniard converted only two of 12 break points.

Nadal broke Gulbis in the opening game of the match and didn’t do it again until the final game.

Upon sealing the 2-hour, 46minute match, Nadal let out a big scream and jumped, with a

Rafael Nadal returns the ball to Ernests Gulbis at the Rome Masters tennis tournament semifinals in Rome Saturday.

Nadal won 6-4, 3-6, 6-4. series of fist pumps.

“I was really happy that I won such a difficult match,” Nadal said. “The mental part was very

good for me.”

Nadal will be aiming for his fifth Rome title in six years when he meets David Ferrer in today’s title match. His fellow Spaniard beat a sluggish Fernando Verdasco 7-5, 6-3 to advance to the first Masters Series final of his career.

The 21-year-old Gulbis was attempting to become the first player to beat both Roger Federer and Nadal in the same clay-court tournament, having stunned the top-ranked Swiss in the second round.

“I knew I could play with the top players if I play good. With my serve and my powerful shots I know I’m tough to play against,” Gulbis said. “I lost but I’m satisfied with this week.”

Also on Saturday: Henin headed to final in Stuttgart STUTTGART, Germany — Justine Henin beat Shahar Peer of Israel 6-3, 6-2 at the

Porsche Grand Prix, advancing to her third final in five tournaments. Henin will play in the final against Samantha Stosur of Australia, who defeated qualifier Anna Lapushchenkova 7-5, 6-3.

Benesova beats Halep to win FEZ, Morocco — Iveta Benesova has won her second WTA Tour title, beating Romanian teenager Simona Halep 6-4, 6-2 in the Grand Prix SAR final.

AL ROUNDUP Rangers 6, Mariners 3 SEATTLE — Mariners ace Felix Hernandez saw his string of 18 consecutive quality starts snapped in his shortest outing in nearly a calendar year as Matt Harrison dazzled for Texas. Hernandez (1-1) lasted just 4 1⁄3 innings, and was tagged for five runs and eight hits by the Rangers. It was the first time since May 9 of last season that Hernandez failed to go at least five innings and ended a string of quality starts dating to Aug. 1.

AUTO RACING: NASCAR SPRINT CUP

Kyle Busch wins Richmond as Gordon falls short again

By Jenna Fryer The Associated Press

Gerry Broome / The Associated Press

Billy Mayfair hits from a trap on the fifth hole during the third round of the Quail Hollow Championship golf tournament at Quail Hollow Club in Charlotte, N.C., Saturday.

Mayfair clings to lead

By Doug Ferguson The Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Billy Mayfair has a two-shot lead going into the final round of the Quail Hollow Championship, a position that seemed unlikely when he was racing to the golf course to make his tee time for a Monday qualifier.

Finishing off an amazing week with his first victory in 12 years might be just as difficult.

Mayfair never lost the lead during a mad scramble to catch him Saturday, finishing with two strong pars for a 1-under 71 that gave him the lead over Masters champion Phil Mickelson and Carolina favorite Davis Love III. “Today was a real test for me,” Mayfair said. “I kept it going for 18 holes and still have the lead going into tomorrow.”

Mickelson, in his first start since winning a third green jacket, overcame food poisoning at the start of the week and a few errant shots to put himself in a great position to join a strong list of champions at Quail Hollow.

He birdied the par 5s on the back nine, and escaped with par on the final hole with a two-putt from 60 feet. Mickelson purposely left the flag in the cup on his first putt because he wasn’t aiming at the hole, wanting to avoid

any chance of the ball running down a slope. He knocked in a 6footer for par and a 71.

Love birdied three of his last five holes for a 4-under 68 and will play in the final group with Mayfair.

Mayfair was at 9-under 207.

For a tournament that no longer has Tiger Woods, who missed the cut, it is not lacking in star power. Two-time major champion Angel Cabrera had a 73 and was in the group at 6-under 210 that included Pebble Beach winner Dustin Johnson (72) and J.J. Henry (71).

Another shot back is Jim Furyk, who already has won twice this year. Furyk had a 12-foot birdie putt on the final hole that caught the lip and spun 5 feet away, he wound up three-putting for bogey. He still shot 71 and is right in the mix.

So is Rory McIlroy, who had to make eagle on his 16th hole Friday to make the cut on the number. Playing early Saturday, McIlroy made birdie on half of his holes for a 66. By the end of the day, he was only four shots out of the lead.

Ten players were within four shots of the top, a margin that doesn’t seem so large considering how long it has been since Mayfair has been tested like this.

The 43-year-old Mayfair is a five-time winner and still the only player to beat Woods in a playoff on the PGA Tour. That was in the 1998 Nissan Open, and he won the Buick Open later that year. That was his last victory.

He sunk to an all-time low in 2009, finishing 157th on the money list to lose his card. That left no status, which is why Mayfair had to qualify Monday. Because of the rain delay in New Orleans last week, he couldn’t catch a flight to Charlotte until Monday morning, landed about noon and had 45 minutes to get to the golf course.

He made it just in time, shot 65 to earn one of four spots, and kept right on going. And while he hasn’t won a PGA Tour event in a dozen years, Mayfair feels as though he’s ready. He takes inspiration from winning anywhere, even matches at his home club in Arizona.

“I won Monday in the qualifier,” he said. “I won the Friday game at Whisper Rock a few weeks ago. I beat my wife last Saturday, too, even though I had to give her a whole bunch of shots. Winning is winning.

“I don’t think you ever lose that feeling, even though it’s been a long time.”

GOLF ROUNDUP

Miyazato up one stroke in Mexico The Associated Press MORELIA, Mexico — Ai Miyazato handled the gusting, canyon-blown wind better than her two long-hitting playing partners.

Miyazato moved into position for her third victory of the season, shooting a 2-under 71 on Saturday to take a one-stroke lead over Michelle Wie and Brittany Lincicome in the Tres Marias Championship.

“I like to play in the wind because I grew up in a windy place,” said Miyazato, raised in the small village of Higashison on the Japanese island of Okinawa. “It’s still tough playing in the wind for me, but I have a good image in my head even if I am playing in tough, windy conditions.”

The winner of the seasonopening events in Thailand and Singapore, Miyazato had a 13under 206 total at Tres Marias Country Club.

Wie, a stroke ahead after two rounds, shot a 73, and Lincicome had a 72 on the mountainside course. Wie won her lone LPGA Tour title 5½ months ago in the Lorena Ochoa Invitational in Ochoa’s hometown of Guadalajara.

Ochoa, the top-ranked star retiring after the tournament to raise a family and work on her charity foundation, was sixth at 10 under after a 70. She has won the tournament three times in the last four seasons, finishing at 25 under the last two years.

Miyazato, far shorter off the tee than Wie and Lincicome, used her control and accuracy to play more consistently. All players battled the 6,500-foot altitude, where the ball travels about 10 percent farther.

“Honestly, I thought some holes were not fair because they (Wie and Lincicome) hit too long,” Miyazato said, drawing a laugh. “But I have confidence with my short game and my putting is really comfortable right now.”

Miyazato fell four strokes behind Wie after five holes, but

was 6 under, and Tom Kite (68), Joey Sindelar (69), Rod Spittle (69) and Tommy Armour III (69) were at 5 under.

Englishman on top in Spain SEVILLE, Spain — England’s Mark Foster shot a 3-under 69 in windy conditions to take a threeshot lead in the Spanish Open.

Foster, winless on the European tour since the 2003 Dunhill Championship, had a 12-under 204 total. Spain’s Alvaro Quiros (67) and Carlos del Moral (70) and France’s Raphael Jacquelin (71) were tied for second at 9 under.

Eduardo Verdugo / The Associated Press

Japan’s Ai Miyazato holds up a ball at the eighth hole during the third round of the Tres Marias Championship in Morelia, Mexico, Saturday. patiently worked her way back with birdies on Nos. 6 and 7. She also birdied 12, dropped a shot on 15, but birdied 16 and closed with two pars on the two tough finishing holes.

“That definitely got me going,” Miyazato said of the backto-back birdies. “I thought the par 5s were very difficult today so it helped me that I was able to make birdies on those par 4s.”

Wie bogeyed two of the last four holes after closing with two bogeys Friday.

Wie’s 73 was by far her worst score, following opening rounds of 66 and 68.

Also on Saturday: Three tied for Champions lead SAUCIER, Miss. — David Frost matched the course record with a 6-under 66 in windy conditions to join Brad Bryant and David Eger atop the leaderboard in the Champions Tour’s inaugural Mississippi Gulf Resort Classic.

Bryant took a one-stroke lead into the final hole, but closed with a bogey for his second consecutive 68. Eger also shot a 68 to match Frost and Bryant at 8-under 136 on the Fallen Oak Golf Club course. Jay Haas (68)

RICHMOND, Va. — Kyle Busch snapped a 21race losing streak — an eternity by his standards — with a late-race pass at Richmond International Raceway that denied Jeff Gordon yet another victory.

Although Busch embarrassed the field early Saturday night — at one point, there were only eight cars on the lead lap — the racing evened out and Busch’s car faded just a bit. That put Gordon in position for the win, a spot he’s been in at least three other times this season.

Once again, though, he was denied. Three late cautions gave the challengers a chance to chase Gordon down, and Busch capitalized with a pass on the final restart to stretch the four-time NASCAR champion’s winless streak to 38 races.

“I don’t even remember what just happened,” Busch said. “I drove it down into Turn 1 and hoped it stuck. I knew I had to baby it into Turn 3 and finally got to clear Jeff. We set sail from there.”

Indeed he did, as Gordon had to hold off Kevin Harvick to keep second place.

Since Gordon’s last victory, at Texas last year, he has finished second eight frustrating times.

“I’ve been doing this long enough to know that they don’t give out trophies for leading any lap other than the last one,” Gordon said.

The race was unbelievably fast at the start.

Busch lapped car after car through the first 150 laps until only seven others were still running with him. A pair of cautions for debris allowed everybody to catch up under NASCAR’s “wave around” rule, and Busch finally had some competition.

He still led 221 of the first 229 laps before his Toyota began to fade. Gordon eventually took command of the race, leading 144 late laps, but he knew he’d have to withstand a slew of late cautions to close out the win.

Steve Helber / The Associated Press

Kyle Busch celebrates after winning the NASCAR Sprint Cup auto race at the Richmond International Raceway in Richmond, Va., Saturday.

After just three cautions through the first 364 laps, there were three in the final 36 laps.

“Of course, it’s never easy,” Gordon grumbled over his radio.

Sam Hornish brought out the last yellow with a spin, and Gordon had Busch on his outside on the restart with five to go.

Busch completed his pass coming out of Turn 3, then pulled away in his Joe Gibbs Racing entry for his first win since Bristol last August.

INDY RACING LEAGUE

Dixon’s win in Kansas good prep for Indy

By John Marshall The Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Kan. — Waiting for the final green flag out of a caution, a few laps from the finish, Scott Dixon jokingly asked his crew if he could save some horsepower boosts for the Indianapolis 500 later this month.

Obviously, the answer was no.

The way Dixon kicked off IndyCar’s oval season, he might not need them anyway.

Making few changes to a fast-off-the-truck car, Dixon cruised to his second straight IndyCar Series victory at Kansas Speedway on Saturday, firmly placing himself atop the list of favorites for the big race on the bricks.

“Success for us here has been fantastic and I just hope we can carry this momentum for another 30 days,” Dixon said after his 22nd career IndyCar victory.

Loose early and fast the rest of the way, Dixon barely used his push-to-pass button. He led the final 150 of the 200 laps on the 1.5-mile oval and finished more then 3 seconds ahead of runner-up Dario Franchitti.

Dixon takes the early lead in IndyCar’s new oval championship and becomes a frontrunner for the Indy 500, a race

he won in 2008. He’s also the second straight repeat winner at Kansas, giving Target Chip Ganassi Racing four straight wins following Dan Wheldon’s 2008 defense.

“He was just fast,” said Tony Kanaan, who finished third despite a miserable day of qualifying that had him breaking stuff at the team trailer on Friday. “I wish I had some of it.”

Dixon got the season off to a decent start on the road courses.

He opened with a sixth in Brazil and followed a disappointing 18th at St. Petersburg with two

top-five finishes, including a runner-up to Ryan Hunter-Reay in Long Beach two weeks ago.

All that was missing was a victory.

Back on the comfortable Kansas oval — he’s finished in the top four each of the past five races there — Dixon was an uncatchable force.

In the second game, Janelle DeWilde’s double proved the sole bright spot for the Storm (7-8 IMC, 10-9 overall) who allowed the Bulldogs to post seven runs in the first inning.

TRACK AND FIELD Summit third at Oregon Relays EUGENE — For Summit, it was a day of broken records and first-place titles at the Oregon Relays at the University of Oregon’s Hayward Field. The Storm boys and girls — the meet combined the scores of the two squads — placed third overall out of nearly 60 other teams.

“It was a great meet at which we really showed a lot of growth,” said Summit coach Dave Turnbull. Kellie Schueler trounced the competition with wins in the 100- (12.24 seconds), 200- (25.02) and 400-meter (56.79) races, while Megan Fristoe and Eirann Cohen finished second and third respectively in the 1,500-meter run, clocking times of 4:51.64 and 4:53.38. In the boys camp, Travis Neuman started the day by breaking the meet record in the freshman 3,000 meter, in which he posted a first-place time of 9:10.35. Brett Campbell was also first in the 110 hurdles in a time of 14.78 seconds, which was good enough to smash his own school record of 14.99.

Sisters posts seven wins at Gladstone GLADSTONE — Sisters High pro-

vided solid competition for the eight other teams at the Dick Baker Invitational and posted seven wins as a team. On the girls side, senior Annie Mutchler was responsible for four of Sisters’ five wins, including a firstplace leap of 17 feet, 7 1⁄4 inches in the long jump, the best mark so far this season in Class 4A. Mutchler also won the 100-meter dash, high jump and led out the winning 400-meter relay team.

Additionally, Courteney Satko contributed a win in the 800. On the boys side, Parker Bennett dominated the 3,000 meter, winning in 8 minutes, 49 seconds and Taylor Steele cruised to first in the 1,500. Team scores were not available.

Hawk throwers take top honors KLAMATH FALLS — Kassi Conditt and Ty Slater both posted first-place finishes at the Sterling Bank Invitational in Klamath Falls. Conditt was the shot put champion with a throw of 38 feet, 8 1⁄2 inches, while Slater was first in the javelin after posting a mark of 182-8. Slater placed second in the discus as well. Also in second place for the Hawks was Laura Jackson, clocking a time of 5:03.37 in the 1,500-meter race, and Jake Logan with a mark of 14-6 in the pole vault. Gilchrist also competed in the invitational and was led by Ryan Stinson, who posted a fifth-place mark in the boys pole vault with a leap of 13 feet.

Cougar triple jumpers shine at Centennial GRESHAM — Kenny Bent placed third in the boys triple jump and Shaina Zollman finished sixth in the girls triple jump to highlight Mountain View’s performance at the 54-team Centennial Invitational. Ayla Rosen and Krysta Kroeger had strong finishes in the girls 400 as Rosen placed third and Kroeger took fifth. Full results of the meet were not available at press time.

Storm 10th at Medford MEDFORD — Summit, with a total of 46 points, finished last among 10 teams on the final day of the Ashland/ Medford Invitational. In the No. 2 singles third-place match the Storm’s Ian Eland was defeated 7-5, 6-4. And in the No. 1 doubles semifinals, Matt Walker and Connor Horne of Churchill defeated Summit’s Sterling Dillingham and Conor Hegewald 6-3, 6-1. South Eugene won the event with 141 points.

BOXING

Mayweather dominates Mosley, stays unbeaten

By Tim Dahlberg The Associated Press

David J. Phillip / The Associated Press

Calvin Borel rides Super Saver to victory during the 136th Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs Saturday in Louisville, Ky.

Derby Continued from D1 “I knew nothing was going to run him down,” he said, referring to his bay colt.

The jockey’s magic touch on his home track gave trainer Todd Pletcher his first Derby victory after 24 failures with a 2½-length victory over Ice Box. “Calvin Borel is a great rider anywhere he goes, but at Churchill Downs he’s even five lengths better,” Pletcher said.

“He knows how to ride this track and gets along with his colt beautifully.”

Borel’s ride at his home track nearly duplicated the one he turned in last year aboard 501 shot Mine That Bird, except he and Super Saver went off at lower odds and were never in last place.

Now the trio heads to Baltimore for the Preakness on May 15.

“Calvin already said he’s going to win the Triple Crown,” Pletcher said, “so I guess we’d better go there.”

The Triple Crown was last won 32 years ago by Affirmed.

The last Derby winner to break from Super Saver’s No. 4 post was 1977 Triple Crown winner Seattle Slew.

Borel almost pulled off his own personal triple last year.

Mine That Bird won the Derby, then Borel switched to filly Rachel Alexandra to win the Preakness before going back to Mine That Bird in the Belmont Stakes. They finished third as the 6-5 favorite.

On Saturday, he was confident enough in his colt and his knowledge of the track to take him off the lead in the early going of the 1¼-mile race. In all but one of his six previous races, Super Saver had never been farther back than second in the early stages.

Borel knew that strategy wouldn’t work in a 20-horse Derby field on a tiring, sloppy track that had been pelted by heavy rain early in the day. So they hugged the rail in sixth place, while many of his rivals were well off the fence in the muck.

“We all know what he’s going to do,” said Robby Albarado, who finished 14th aboard Dean’s Kitten. “He just does it anyway.”

Said Borel: “I was just taught it’s the shortest way around.”

TOP HORSES RACE DESCRIPTIONS SUPER SAVER — Came in the initial furlong tightening up inner rivals, was reserved along the inside while within easy striking distance, moved up on his own after six furlongs, rallied between rivals near the quarter mile marker, moved back to the rail when straightened away for the drive, engaged Noble’s Promise, shook off that one to open a clear lead with a furlong to go then slowly expanded that lead while under steady urging.

ICE BOX — Steadied early in traffic, was outrun for six furlongs, made a bold inside run leaving the three-furlong marker, steadied when blocked nearing the stretch, angled out, steadied for a sixteenth of a mile once in the stretch, swung out near the furlong marker for a clear path then closed a late gap to be steadily getting to the winner late.

PADDY O’PRADO — Came in the early stages forcing Stately Victor into Lookin at Lucky, was reserved along the inside, followed the winner after a half, came out three wide entering the second turn to split rivals, made a good gain after seven furlongs, swerved out and then back in near the quarter mile marker, split horses soon after, reached closest to the winner with a sixteenth to go and hung in until the end.

Super Saver was timed in 2:04.45 as the 8-1 second-choice behind favorite Lookin At Lucky, whose 6-1 odds tied Harlan’s Holiday in 2002 for the longest priced favorite in 136 runnings.

He paid $18, $8.80 and $6.

Pletcher let out a whoop and slapped his hands together after his colt crossed the finish line, snapping a skid the Eclipse Award-winning trainer was eager to end. He watched the race alone on TV in the horseman’s lounge near the paddock.

“It will all soak in in a day or two,” he said. “Now that it’s happened, you just kind of don’t know what to feel or say.”

He seemed to have a lock on his first Derby win until expected favorite Eskendereya was withdrawn last weekend with a swollen leg. That left Pletcher with four horses in the race, but none as highly regarded.

His other finishers were: Mission Impazible, ninth; filly Devil May Care, 10th; and Discreetly Mine, 13th.

Pletcher’s only other Triple

Crown race victory was in 2007 at Belmont with the filly Rags to Riches. The lack of a Derby win by the 42-year-old former assistant to D. Wayne Lukas was the most glaring omission on his resume and something he was constantly asked about.

It wasn’t for lack of trying.

In 2007, he saddled five in the Derby, with none finishing higher than sixth.

“It’s the one thing that was important to me,” he said. “The one thing I wanted to do while my parents were still here to see it.”

Borel is the first jockey to win three Derbys in four years; Bill Hartack won three from 1960-64.

“Calvin Borel is amazing. He is fearless,” trainer Bob Baffert said. “He takes control of the race, and you have to give him a lot of credit. He’s a great rider.”

Baffert should know. He thought he had his fourth Derby victory in the bag last year until front-running Pioneerof the Nile was overtaken in the stretch by Borel and Mine That Bird.

Baffert’s Lookin At Lucky wound up sixth, clearly compromised by starting on the rail.

His other colt, Conveyance, finished 15th after setting the pace for more than three-quarters of a mile.

“I lost all chance at the post position draw when I drew the one,” Baffert said. “I had a bad feeling about it.”

Trained by Nick Zito, Ice Box returned $11.20 and $8. Paddy O’Prado was another neck back in third and paid $7.40 to show.

“I couldn’t get lucky enough to beat Calvin,” said Zito, a twotime winner.

Make Music for Me was fourth, followed by Noble’s Promise, Lookin At Lucky, Dublin, Stately Victor, Mission Impazible, Devil May Care, American Lion and Jackson Bend.

Discreetly Mine was 13th, followed by Dean’s Kitten, Conveyance, Homeboykris, Sidney’s Candy, Line of David, Awesome Act and Backtalk.

The crowd of 155,804 sought shelter early on from the rain, which had stopped by post time, with sun breaking through the clouds.

LAS VEGAS — Floyd Mayweather Jr. was Money once again.

Almost dropped by a right hand in the second round, Mayweather rebounded to dominate Shane Mosley the rest of the way Saturday night to win a unanimous 12-round decision in their welterweight fight.

Boxing’s biggest box office draw remained undefeated in 41 fights, but not before giving his fans and his corner a scare when a right hand to the side of his head buckled his knees a minute into the second, and he had to grab Mosley to avoid going down. Mosley landed another right later in the round, but the rest of the night belonged to Mayweather.

Fighting before a star-studded crowd that included Muhammad Ali, Mayweather never came close to dropping Mosley, but landed so many more punches that the outcome wasn’t in doubt past the middle rounds. He had an answer for everything Mosley tried to do, landing right hands to the head seemingly at will as the fight progressed.

By the end of the night, Mayweather had put so many rounds in the bank that the only question was whether he would stop Mosley or be content to win a lopsided decision. Mayweather kept moving forward and continued to press the issue in a fight that wasn’t in doubt.

“I wanted to give the fans what they wanted to see, a toeto-toe battle,” said Mayweather, who has been criticized for fighting too defensively. “It wasn’t the same style for me but I wanted to be aggressive and I knew I could do it.”

Two ringside judges scored it 119-109 for Mayweather, while the third had it 118-110.

The Associated Press had him winning 117-110.

Mayweather made Mosley look every bit his 38 years as he landed sharp punches to his head, dominating a fighter who had vowed to turn the bout into the fight of the decade. Mosley tried his best, but couldn’t match the speed of the 33-year-old Mayweather, who grew more comfortable with each passing round.

Mosley was a substitute for Manny Pacquiao, who was all but signed to meet Mayweather until a dispute over drug testing derailed the megafight. Instead, Pacquiao beat Joshua Clottey on March 13 in Dallas and is now campaigning for a seat in congress in his native Philippines.

“If Manny Pacquiao can take a blood and urine test then we have a fight,” Mayweather said. “If not, no fight.”

Oregon State running back Jacquizz Rodgers carries the ball before the Beavers’ spring football game at Reser Stadium on Saturday in Corvallis. The scrimmage marked the end of spring practices.

Oregon State backups shine at scrimmage From wire reports CORVALLIS — With running back Jacquizz Rodgers watching on the sidelines, it was his understudies that took center stage at Oregon State’s annual spring game at Reser Stadium in front of 7,141 fans.

Sophomore Jordan Jenkins, a graduate of West Salem High School, rushed for 112 yards on 26 carries while junior Ryan McCants had 74 yards on 24 attempts. Sophomore Jovan Stevenson, also a key member of the running back corps, had just five yards on four attempts after sustaining a hip pointer injury.

“Jordan and Ryan both ran physically today,” OSU head coach Mike Riley said. “It was very impressive. The blocking in a lot of the runs was good and

the production was also good.”

Overall, the scrimmage was offense taking on the defense.

The offense generated six touchdowns and three field goals.

Most of the touchdowns came late in the game with the first and second units on the sidelines, but quarterback Ryan Katz did engineer at 7-play 67-yard drive culminating with a 14-yard touchdown pass to receiver Markus Wheaton to open the game.

“There were a lot of plays; I’m glad everyone basically got to play,” Riley said. “There were enough positive things that we can feel good about heading into the summer and fall camp.”

Katz ended the game completing nine of 20 passes for 123 yards, one touchdown and one interception. Lake Oswego’s

Jack Lomax came in late in the scrimmage and tossed three touchdown passes, all to Medford’s Mitch Singler, including a 66-yard strike. Cody Vaz was eight of 13 for 60 yards and Peter Lalich finished eight of 12 for 47 yards.

The Beavers’ first-team defense, minus All-America candidate tackle Stephen Paea, struggled early before finding a groove and stopping the offense on three downs four consecutive times. Sophomore starting end Taylor Henry had a banner game with four quarterback sacks and five overall tackles for a loss.

Oregon State returns to the practice field Aug. 9 to begin preparations for the 2010 season that starts Sept. 4 at TCU.

OREGON SPRING GAME

White beats Green to end the Ducks’ spring practices From wire reports EUGENE — Darron Thomas, Kenjon Barner and D.J. Davis all had monster numbers for the Green, but it was the Oregon White team that prevailed, 26-21, in front of a record 25,211 fans in the annual spring game at Autzen Stadium.

The White scored early and late, withstanding three Green touchdowns in between. True freshman cornerback Terrance Mitchell set the tone by picking off Thomas on the opening drive of the game and returning the ball 46 yards for a touchdown.

With a 7-0 lead before ever taking the field, the White offense made the most of its first series, driving 69 yards in four plays, capped by a 1-yard plunge

by Remene Alston Jr. to go ahead 14-0. Nate Costa had completions of 38 yards to Garrett Davis and 28 yards to Lavasier Tuinei to set up Alston’s short run.

Oregon coach Chip Kelly said he won’t make a decision on a replacement at quarterback for the suspended Jeremiah Masoli until fall camp.

“Some teams like to name a starter after the spring, but I think it’s a good move by coach Kelly,” Costa said. “It just heats up the competition, puts a little bit more fuel to the fire. It’s going to make us better.”

Thomas and Barner led the Green back on the ensuing drive to cut the lead in half. The redshirt sophomore quarterback hit tight end David Paulson for a key 22-yard pickup on 3rd-and-2, and Barner slashed his way through the defense for a 37-yard gain on the next play.

Facing third-and-goal from the 6-yard line, Barner used a block from right tackle C.E. Kaiser and cut inside for the score.

After a 29-yard field goal from Rob Beard, Thomas found D.J.

Oregon Continued from D1 Masoli has been suspended for the coming season after pleading guilty in March to a felony burglary charge for stealing a laptop from a fraternity house. He is one of six players who were arrested during a span of several weeks.

The problems at Oregon, which completed its spring practice Saturday with its annual spring game, have not been confined to the police blotter.

The state attorney general launched an investigation into the $2.3 million buyout of athletic director Mike Bellotti, the former football coach whose “contract” turned out to be a handshake agreement.

Though no wrongdoing was found, the attorney general, John Kroger, said the arrangement exposed the university to financial risk by not following procedures.

The hiring of a basketball coach was no more smooth. By the time Dana Altman was hired last Sunday, after fruitless overtures to Tom Izzo, Brad Stevens, Jamie Dixon and Mike Anderson, among others, the job search had taken six weeks, or long enough that three players had asked for their releases.

“It’s time for the athletic department to do a little soul searching on how they can serve the university,” said Nathan Tublitz, a biology professor and the president of the university senate. “The athletic department is out of control here.”

The tension between athletics and academics has been long standing at Oregon, since the university in the mid-1990s — with the backing of the uber-donor Phil Knight, the Nike co-founder — began pouring hundreds of millions of dollars into its athletic facilities, which are among the most opulent in the country. Before Bellotti, the department had been run by its No. 2 benefactor, the booster turned athletic director Pat Kilkenny.

Football players, who a generation ago hung their backpacks on nails, now walk into a two-story, wood-paneled locker room featuring flat-screen televisions, and Internet ports at every locker. A new learning center — dubbed the Jock Box for its glass cube design — has been built for athletes only.

If athletes at Oregon want a top-of-the-line laptop, all they have to do is ask — Knight donated 550 specially engraved Apple notebooks for their use.

This bit of irony, in the wake of Masoli’s arrest, has not been lost on many around campus. When guard Mark Asper, a sociology and Spanish major, has pulled his laptop out in class, he has had classmates admire it and then ask the inevitable question.

“Is that one Jeremiah could have gotten?” Asper said. “And I say, yes. They want to know: What was he thinking? I just have to humbly apologize. People say, ‘Oh, you guys are a bunch of hooligans,’ and it’s tough because you don’t have any evidence to the contrary.”

A case in point came in late February. Coach Chip Kelly called a team meeting after several arrests. He outlined the standards which he expected his players to adhere to and then affirmed at a news conference that he had not lost control of the program.

Less than 24 hours later, linebacker Kiko Alonso was arrested for driving under the influence. The next day, receiver Jamere Holland, believing Alonso had been kicked off the team, unleashed an expletive-laced rant against Kelly on his Facebook page.

Kelly has dismissed three players, including

Holland, and suspended two others — Masoli and Alonso — for the season. LaMichael James, the team’s best running back, and kicker Rob Beard were each suspended for one game, possibly more, after pleading guilty to physical harassment in separate cases involving women.

So, rather than distancing themselves from the behavior of LeGarrette Blount, whose nationally televised sucker punch of a Boise State player was one of college football’s enduring images last season, the Ducks demonstrated in the early days of the offseason that birds of a feather do indeed flock together.

Kelly, who was promoted from offensive coordinator to head coach in 2009 when Bellotti was made athletic director, said he did not believe his message was getting lost. He pointed to the fact that there were no off-the-field incidents in his first nine months on the job. He also cited statistics that are well-known around Eugene. Florida has had 27 football player arrests in five years; Alabama had 10 arrests in Nick Saban’s first 18 months as coach; and Penn State had 46 arrests between 2002 and 2007.

“It happens everywhere, it happens in every sport,” Kelly said. “The problem is we’re a high-profile sport and we live in a fish bowl, so people know about it. And our players understand that. One is too many, but our players have to understand that they’re looked at differently than a normal student and everything they do is going to be scrutinized, so you have to do the right things.”

Masoli, through a university spokesman, declined to be interviewed. James said he had learned “big time” from his recent arrest, but that it was fair to wonder if someone who had been arrested twice could stay out of trouble.

“I can’t predict the future,” he said. “I’m 20 years old. I’ve had two incidents happen in my whole life.

You can’t judge a person on an incident that happened in high school. I’m sure other kids have had incidents that have happened in high school.”

One person keeping a close eye will be Richard Lariviere, who last summer became the university’s president. Lately, his focus has been on sports.

Lariviere called the spate of off-the-field troubles “unacceptable” and acknowledged in a news conference that he pushed out Bellotti, who took a job last month with ESPN. Last week, after The Eugene Register-Guard reported that Kilkenny had also operated without a contract for more than a year, Lariviere reassigned the university counsel Melinda Grier to the campus law school and announced that her contract would not be renewed when it expired in 2011.

The moves appear to highlight an acknowledgment of the gap between how the university and the athletic department have been run — one beholden to state lawmakers, the other a seemingly freestanding corporation. And they raise further questions about the proper balance, in a sleepy pocket in the Northwest, between athletics and academics.

“We’ve really reached a tipping point,” said Steven Ungerleider, a sports psychologist in Eugene.

“You have to have this homeostatic balance — you can’t just run athletics as an entity by itself. What I think is important is that the University of Oregon is a unique place — most alums and most donors want to see a healthy balance. They want to see a school jump up in the academic rankings and not just see a top-five football team. We are really at a crossroads.

I would hope the new administration would see this as a new opportunity and not a Band-Aid.”

Oregon running back Kenjon Barner (24) finds a hole as he runs into the secondary against the Oregon white team during the annual Oregon Spring college football game at Autzen Stadium, Saturday in Eugene. The white team defeated the green team, 26-21.

Davis for a 68-yard touchdown on a flea flicker to pull within three points at 17-14. Thomas was three-of-three on the drive for 83 yards.

“It was good to get out there and play with the guys and compete,” said Thomas, who played briefly as a freshman in 2008 before redshirting last season. “I’m motivated. I’m going to be working my hardest this summer to give you all a show in the fall.”

Green finished off the opening half with a 10-play, 74-yard drive capped by Barner’s 1-yard touchdown run to take its only lead of the day at 21-17.

Quarterback Daryle Hawkins took over for Costa to start the second half and guided the White to what proved to be the game-winning scoring drive.

Hawkins, along with running backs Andres Reed and Brandon Thurston, took turns toting the ball on the seven-play drive finished off with a 6-yard run by the quarterback. Reed’s 45-yard scamper was the key play.

Barner led all players with 96 yards on nine carries.

“We’ve got a great base for us to build upon,” Kelly said. “It couldn’t have ended in a better way for us.”

In 2009, this PowerPoint slide was used to show the complexity of U.S. military strategy in Afghanistan.

Challenges go beyond athletics for UO leader

New York Times News Service

By John Costa The Bulletin

I

t says a lot about the state of higher education in Oregon that it takes someone conversant in Sanskrit, a classical language of India, to think aloud about radically changing and improving one of our public universities and do it while getting a handle on a set of volatile athletic challenges.

But that is what President Richard Lariviere of the University of Oregon has done in less than a year on the job.

While his handling of the forced resignation of UO Athletic Director Mike Bellotti was a legitimate and irresistible journalistic target, the longer term and far more important implications of his views rest in his proposals for the way the public invests in and oversees the university.

Addressing the editorial board of The Bulletin last week, Lariviere touched on both subjects. Since the Bellotti matter has been the most public of his concerns, that was the one we talked about first.

In very blunt but measured language, he said he came to the conclusion that Bellotti could not remain as athletic director, even though he, as Lariviere acknowledges, had built one of the most successful football franchises in the university’s history.

Lariviere is neither the first nor the only university leader to recognize that big-time collegiate sports is big-time entertainment with hundreds of millions of dollars at stake, and that someone who is an excellent football coach may not be the most qualified to effectively orchestrate such a complex enterprise.

With no disrespect toward Bellotti, that seems a very valid judgment.

From there, as many readers know, the issue disintegrated into the oral promises made to Bellotti without a written contract by university officials before Lariviere arrived in Eugene, and just what compensation he deserved for being forced out.

On Thursday, Attorney General John Kroger issued a report of his investigation. He said he could find no criminal violation, but in his summary report, wrote: “Evidence of deficient legal representation. The most significant legal error disclosed in this review (and in the parallel internal audit conducted by the Oregon University System) was the failure to reduce the terms of Bellotti’s employment contract as AD to writing.

Uncertainty as to key terms — including the amount of compensation due and the duration of the agreement — created substantial legal risk for the UO. In view of the resulting legal risks, the UO’s decision to resolve the dispute for $2.3 million (plus interest on a portion) was not unreasonable.”

In other words, Lariviere inherited a difficult situation and handled it well.

He gave Bellotti a handsome amount of money and protected the university from further legal exposure.

The more lasting issue for Lariviere is whether the structure of higher education in Oregon is designed to get the best out of its public universities.

His view, like mine, is: probably not.

These were not his words, but over the years, the state, with a declining investment in higher education, has reduced its support for the universities, without reducing its control of what they do.

The universities still report to a State Board of Higher Education with an impossible task: continually stretching more limited resources equitably over ever-increasing needs.

It’s the classic convoy system, where the pace of the fleet is only as swift as the slowest vessel.

For decades, university presidents have gone tin-cupping in Salem each legislative session, with the optimum aspiration of not being reduced too significantly.

That demoralizing requirement has to end if real progress is to be made.

Lariviere’s view is that the state needs to change the method, if not the amount, of state funding, and alter the governance structure of the university in the process.

If not, we will continue to play in the margin of higher education as the rest of the nation and world plays in the center.

What they’re saying about Microsoft PowerPoint

By Elisabeth Bumiller • New York Times News Service WASHINGTON — Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the leader

The computer presentation program, on sale since 1987, is a central part of most U.S. military briefings and meetings. But to many in the U.S. military, the program is the source of many jokes and concerns.

of American and NATO forces in Afghanistan, was shown a PowerPoint slide in Kabul last summer that was meant to portray the complexity of American military strategy, but it looked more like a bowl of spaghetti.

“When we understand that slide, we’ll have won the war,” McChrystal dryly remarked, one of his advisers recalled, as the room erupted in laughter.

The slide has since bounced around the Internet as an example of a military tool that has spun out of control. Like an insurgency, PowerPoint has crept into the daily lives of military commanders and reached the level of near obsession. The amount of time expended on PowerPoint, the Microsoft presentation program of computergenerated charts, graphs and bullet points, has made it a running joke in the Pentagon and in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“PowerPoint makes us stupid,”

Gen. James Mattis of the Marine Corps, the Joint Forces commander, said this month at a military conference in North Carolina. (He spoke without PowerPoint.) Brig.

Gen. H.R. McMaster, who banned PowerPoint presentations when he led the successful effort to secure the northern Iraqi city of Tal Afar in 2005, followed up at the same conference by likening PowerPoint to an internal threat.

“It’s dangerous because it can create the illusion of understanding and the illusion of control,” McMaster said in a telephone interview afterward.

“Some problems in the world are not bullet-izable.”

Wyden challenges use of secret holds B

eing a U.S. senator has its perks. But the list shouldn’t include the ability to bring action to a stop without having to admit publicly that you’re doing so. Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, recognize that truth, though too many of their fellow senators do not. Thus, the secret hold, which allows a senator to prevent action on a nominee or bill without having to tell anyone he’s doing so.

Wyden and Grassley attempted to put an end to secret holds back in 2007 as part of an ethics reform bill that passed Congress that year.

Unfortunately, lawmakers added a number of loopholes to the holds portion of the legislation, and secrecy remains the name of the game. The result is that more than 50 of Barack Obama’s nominees to various government posts are in limbo, unable to begin work because they have not been confirmed by the Senate.

Wyden and Grassley are prepared to tackle the problem again, and we hope they have better luck this time.

It’s an issue that shouldn’t become tied up in partisan politics, for secret holds have been used by the party not in

Senators should embrace the new effort by (Ron) Wyden and (Chuck) Grassley, and this time leave the teeth in their proposal. power for years. When George W. Bush was president, Democrats put secret holds on many of his nominees; now Republicans are returning the favor.

The pair proposes to require senators to submit their holds in writing to their party leaders. Six days later their names would be made public — and this time there are no loopholes that would allow the identity of the senator to remain secret.

That’s only reasonable. In the current case, several top level slots remain vacant because of secret holds.

Worse, President Obama has resorted to recess appointments, which do not have to be confirmed, a tactic that would be more difficult to justify in other circumstances. Senators should embrace the new effort by Wyden and Grassley, and this time leave the teeth in their proposal.

I was extremely disappointed after reading through the April 16 Bulletin and finding no mention of the COCC skill contest “2010 Disco Math” held for all high school students. This event was sponsored by Bend Research Inc., the COCC mathematics department and held April 15 at the COCC campus.

This event was to give math students a chance to shine and was attended by students from Bend High, Burns Union High, Cascades Academy, Crane High, Crook County High, Gilchrist High, International School of the Cascades, La Pine High, Mountain View High, North Lake School, Redmond High and Summit High schools. The best of the best math students from each of the above schools competed in both team and individual events in pre-algebra, algebra 1, geometry, algebra II, advanced math and calculus. The enthusiasm and competitiveness of these outstanding students was awe-inspiring.

If this had been a sports event, The Bulletin would have been right there and given it front page coverage, but to not have covered this academic event at all is unpardonable. It was a great disappointment that The Bulletin did

Peaceful tea party On April 15, I traveled the 100 miles from my home to attend my first tea party event. I picked up my 12-yearold grandson in Redmond and brought him with me. It was a wonderful learning experience for both of us concerning patriotism and our freedom of speech and assembly. I was gratified to be among so many friendly and peaceful folks of all ages, who like me are not happy with the direction our government is taking us. As I held up my poster and my grandson waved the flag and we sang “America the Beautiful,” I thanked God for the blessing of being born in this great country. I hope and pray that we can all work together to keep our country safe and our freedoms in tack.

I was disappointed that The Bulletin didn’t have at least a short write up of the event, except for a few words under the picture.

Thanks to all the folks who put the event together. Also it was wonderful

to see so many retired military there.

God bless them all and God bless America!

Health reform It’s a start. It is historic. It is amazing that our legislators passed health care reform, considering the power dollars of the health care and insurance industries.

No one would want to dismantle civil rights, Social Security or Medicare, and yet my neighbors talk about how this was “rammed down our throats.”

My throat feels just fine.

In fact, I’d be happy to swallow single-payer relationship with the prescription drug industry. Around the world, it has been proven again and again that health care can be delivered cheaper and better and universally.

We need to do more. We need to take the profit motive out of health care if we want to be a moral nation. I refer you to PBS Frontline “Sick Around the World,” or T.R. Reid’s “The Healing of America.”

Legislative crazy train stretches from New York to Arizona

G

ood news! The giant Palouse earthworm of the American plains is not extinct.

Nobody had seen a Palouse worm since the 1980s, but it appears they were around all the time, going about their business underground. As Jim Robbins reported in The Times, spunky scientists from the University of Idaho recently located two by burying electrodes that sent shock waves through the ground and encouraged the worms to shoot up to the surface.

Good work, University of Idaho scientists! We’re all happy to hear the giant Palouse earthworms are still with us.

Even though it turns out that they’re actually not all that big.

I am telling you this because my actual topic today is state legislatures. We all know how hard it is to keep anyone’s attention when discussion veers off in this direction, so, yeah, I was going for a cheap thrill.

State legislatures are frequently the subject of derision, but lately they have been freaking out with such alarming intensity that you’d think a mad scientist had surrounded state capitols with electrodes just to see what would come popping out.

This month, the most dreadful laws

have been coming from Oklahoma and Arizona. The Oklahoma Legislature just overrode Gov. Brad Henry’s veto on two anti-abortion bills, one of which gives doctors immunity from being sued if they conceal information about a fetus’s possible birth defects from a pregnant patient.

Both Arizona and Oklahoma passed bills exempting state residents from gun registration rules and background checks. Governor Henry vetoed his state’s version. Jan Brewer, the governor of Arizona, seems to sign everything that’s put in front of her. But she was overheard calling the State Capitol “that hell hole,” so we might presume she doesn’t always enjoy it.

Arizona, of course, recently passed an immigration bill so draconian that even Jeb Bush hates it. The State House approved a bill requiring presidential candidates to prove that they were born in the United States. However, the Senate may not follow suit, since the Legislature is scheduled to go home this week.

The Arizona Legislature going home is good news right up there with the big earthworm discovery.

Here in New York, the legislators have not been passing outrageous new laws lately. In fact, they seem determined not

GAIL COLLINS to pass anything at all, including the budget which was due on April 1. The state is literally running out of money, construction projects are at a standstill and school districts are in chaos.

Meanwhile, a group of lawmakers have announced plans to go to Arizona and protest the new immigration law by chaining themselves to the border. Given the extremely small chance that they will be needed for anything constructive in Albany, this seems like a good plan.

Maybe some state senators from Arizona would like to come to New York and throw themselves over Niagara Falls to protest our lack of a budget.

On the surface, it might seem as if we have a pattern here: red states pass crazy laws, while blue states can’t handle money. But financial failure is color blind. A few months ago, Oklahoma won the Largest Revenue Shortfall in the Nation title, edging out — yes! — Arizona.

State legislatures are frequently the subject of derision, but lately they have been freaking out with such alarming intensity that you’d think a mad scientist had surrounded state capitols with electrodes just to see what would come popping out.

It is a little ironic that states that spend so much time complaining about federal meddling have been so dependent on the about-to-vanish federal stimulus funds to keep functioning. The Oklahoma health commissioner recently warned lawmakers that additional budget cuts could send the state sliding from 49th to 50th in the ranking for overall health of its citizens.

Which is, I guess, good news if you happen to be Mississippi.

Arizona has been raising quick cash by selling state buildings — including the Capitol — and leasing them back from the new owners.

You can see where the pressure might lead elected officials to do something crazy, like pass a gun control law so unconstitutional it makes the National Rifle Association nervous.

South Carolina is a very red state, but it’s in one of the worst messes, budgetwise. Nevada, which is sort of purple, is facing a huge shortfall in 2011. “People always write about California and New York, but I don’t think any state is in worse shape than Nevada,” said the Las Vegas Sun columnist Jon Ralston. This is the sort of thing that happens to smaller states, and it is totally unfair. Your elected officials work hard to create as many disasters as possible, and where’s the credit?

South Carolina is allegedly led by Mark Sanford of Appalachian Trail fame, and the governor of Nevada, Jim Gibbons, has had so many scandals that keeping them straight is like trying to explain credit default swaps. So I’m working on a theory that the states with terrible government are the ones that are A) Red, B) Blue, C) Run by someone with a sex scandal.

Otherwise, it’s all good. We’re happy as a Palouse earthworm.

THE BULLETIN • Sunday, May 2, 2010 F3

O Obama’s liberal double standard I

n politics, having power and keeping it often mean fudging a little on ideology.

So conservatives sometimes convince the country to do very liberal things — think of Richard Nixon going to China, Ronald Reagan granting a blanket amnesty to illegal aliens, or George W. Bush running big deficits.

Liberals can sometimes act like conservatives without worry of being smeared by their base as heartless right-wingers — remember Bill Clinton’s agreement to sign welfare reform and put caps on federal spending.

But in matters of war, being liberal is a great advantage for a president.

The mainstream media and cultural elite give a Democratic commander in chief a pass that would rarely be extended to a Republican. Perhaps this double standard occurs because they believe a progressive president goes to war only reluctantly — even though most of our bloodiest conflicts have been fought under Democratic presidents.

Woodrow Wilson sent millions of soldiers to Europe and helped to win World War I through head-on clashes with the German army. Yet the country saw him as an idealistic peacemaker.

Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman, despite respectively firebombing Japan and dropping two atomic bombs, could still count on unified support from the nation’s elite.

We equate Vietnam with Richard Nixon, who inherited the war, not John

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON Kennedy, who got us into it in the first place. Few remember that Bill Clinton neither asked Congress nor went to the United Nations before he bombed Serbian strongman Slobodan Milosevic into submission.

Noble laureate Barack Obama is enjoying this traditional exemption from wartime criticism — and he is using it to good effect.

Candidate Obama, like his rivals in the Democratic presidential primaries, ran on an array of antiwar themes. Iraq was lost; the surge had failed; it was long past time for all combat troops to come home. President Bush had supposedly shredded the Constitution by starting up military tribunals and renditions, and by opening the Guantanamo Bay detention facility. Bush & Co. had also authorized Predator drone assassinations, pushed through the Patriot Act, and expanded wiretaps and intercepts.

Obama’s rhetoric reflected the Democratic orthodoxy that by 2006 saw unhappiness with the war as a winning campaign theme.

But after his inauguration, Obama

apparently grasped two realities. The first: Antiwar rhetoric on the stump was easy, but the responsibility of keeping Americans safe from terrorism and Islamic radicalism was not. The second: He guessed that liberal furor over the war on terror and the interventions in Iraq and Afghanistan had always been mostly about opposing George Bush — not really principled opposition to actual wartime policies.

So after early 2009 there was no more talk of a lost war in Iraq, and no more deadlines to bring home our 130,000 troops that are still there. The Bush-Petraeus plan of staged withdrawal instead still operates. There has been a marked escalation in Afghanistan.

Guantanamo Bay is still open 15 months after the inauguration — and three months after its promised closure date. There have been more Predator drone assassinations during the early months of the Obama administration than in eight years of the Bush tenure.

Renditions, tribunals, intercepts and wiretaps go on as before, or have been expanded.

And as Obama must have anticipated, there are now no more antiwar rallies and Hollywood movies, or anguished op-eds about either an imperial warmongering America or a virtual police state at home. A raging Michael Moore and Cindy Sheehan are distant memories. We once read that Bush as a wartime president frivolously played

too much golf; we don’t read that a Obama has played more golf in one year than Bush did in eight.

Progressives have concluded that to now oppose the Bush-Obama foreign policies would only hurt their own party’s domestic agenda, and that a cool, sensitive President Obama does what he must reluctantly — in contrast to a zealot warmonger like former President Bush.

Call all this hypocrisy, but it does create interesting political irony. Conservatives don’t know whether to score points against Obama for his aboutface and past politicizing of national security issues, or praise him for continuing what they feel were necessary Bush efforts that have kept us safe.

Liberals may be slightly embarrassed that their past furor over the various ongoing wars on terror more or less mysteriously ceased in January 2009. And they are certainly angry that conservatives are opposing Obama’s domestic agenda in as coarse a fashion as they themselves once did Bush’s foreign policy.

How does this affect America at large? Liberal Nobel laureates can fight wars abroad pretty much as they deem necessary — without worrying that they are going to be vilified at home.

er Mitch McConnell protested. “I think we’re giving up on this bill too soon,” McConnell said. “There are a number of Republicans who are prepared to vote for cloture as soon as they believe their colleagues on this side of the aisle have had a reasonable opportunity to have offered and voted upon amendments they think would improve the bill.”

The next week, President George W. Bush journeyed to Capitol Hill and made a personal plea to Senate Republicans to renew the effort. More bipartisan talks ensued and the result was a second bill, this one adding a mandatory $4 billion border security section to the previous provisions centered on tougher enforcement, plus a path to citizenship for the

But when it came to the floor, cloture again failed, this time by 46-53 — 14 votes short of the 60 it needed. Democrats split 33-15 in favor of ending the debate while Republicans voted 37-12 to continue talking and amending, and the two independent members split.

That ended the last effort by Congress to meet the federal responsibility for managing immigration. The states — not just Arizona but all of them — are ill-equipped to solve the problem.

The blame for this mess rests with those who killed that bill.

How one school is bringing hope to Sudan S NICHOLAS MARIAL BAI, Sudan — outhern Sudan is one of the most impoverished places on Earth, and this remote town lacks electricity and running water and is 150 miles from the nearest paved road. Yet, thanks to a remarkable young American who grew up here — and to readers who backed him — the town has become a magnet for young Sudanese dreaming of an education.

From hundreds of miles around, boys and girls are streaming here in hopes of being admitted to a new boarding school.

It is the brainchild of Valentino Achak Deng, whose flight from war and starvation is recounted in the best-selling book

by Dave Eggers, “What is the What.”

Valentino was separated from his family during the civil war in Sudan and spent his childhood dodging soldiers, land mines, lions and other hazards. He learned to read and write by scratching letters in the dust at a refugee camp, and in 2001 he was admitted to the United States as a refugee. He worked his way through college — and then was determined to give back.

“Many people have placed confidence in me, trusted me, supported me, and so I felt a special responsibility,” Valentino said. “I wanted to show that there was a reason that I survived.”

Dave and Valentino devoted the profits from “What is the What” to starting the

high school, and it is now choosing students for its second school year, beginning in a few days. More than 1,000 pupils, some of them adults whose studies were delayed by the war, are competing for 150 spots as incoming ninth-graders.

I’ve known and admired Valentino for years and wrote about his school in December, prompting $400,000 in contributions from readers. So I decided to visit and see what the donations had achieved.

Valentino has hired first-rate teachers, constructed new buildings and erected two dormitories for girls (at least half the students will be girls). The night I stayed in a thatch-roof cottage — teacher housing — a truck arrived with the dorms’ beds and mattresses, purchased in Uganda. Almost nothing is available locally.

The girls will sleep 25 to a room, but the dorms will greatly expand educational opportunities for young women here. Last year, in all of southern Sudan, only 11 girls sat for high school gradu-

ation exams, according to government statistics.

One of southern Sudan’s most wrenching statistics is this: Based on official data, a girl there is far more likely to end up dying in childbirth than she is to gain a primary education.

The upshot is that this one school, serving students from all over southern Sudan, will considerably expand the number of girls graduating from secondary school. American donors can sponsor the girls, for $300 per year, through ValentinoAchakDeng.org.

This school is free, the only hope for brilliant students who have no money for tuition, but the pupils do the cleaning and maintenance themselves. Valentino’s connections help bring American volunteer teachers in the summers; they put up with bucket showers, pit toilets and wilting heat, while gaining the ferocious loyalty of the students.

The rest of the staff is unusual, too.

The cook, Achol Mayol Juach, was kidnapped by slave traders in 1986, when she was 7, and was enslaved in the north for nearly two decades before escaping with the help of an aid worker from Christian Solidarity International.

Valentino aims to make the school multiethnic, including Muslim Arab students associated with northern tribes that ravaged the south during the civil war. He has students engaged in service

projects, like building huts for displaced people, and he is focused on nurturing leaders who can build a more peaceful and prosperous country.

Operating a school in such a remote area is a dizzying challenge. Computers must be powered by a generator or solar panels. Government officials pester Valentino to admit their children, and he must delicately explain that admission depends entirely on entrance exam scores. (He does give preference to one group: orphans.)

Recent donations have enabled the school to build a library, which is starved of books, but there is no local postal service for American friends to send books.

Valentino looked into the possibility of having books mailed to Kenya and then trucked in, but found he would have to pay prohibitive import duties.

The school is not a solution to Sudan’s troubles, and it will educate only a tiny proportion of Sudanese youngsters yearning for a better future. But it is an exhilarating glimmer in a land laden with troubles. It’s a sign of Americans and Sudanese working together and making a difference. And it’s a reminder that sometimes the world’s most desperate and desolate places are the ones brimming with magnanimity and hope.

DAVID BRODER the shadows? What’s their alternative?”

Now we know. If it’s not exactly “Gestapo” tactics, the Arizona legislation certainly smacks of police-state methods that inevitably will involve racial profiling of Hispanics, no matter what preventive measures the governor says she will take.

The bill that died in Congress had been hammered out over many months by a bipartisan group of senators, including both the Hispanic members of the Senate and both the Republican senators from Arizona.

But once the bill hit the floor, it was attacked from both flanks. The most conservative Republicans — Jim DeMint of South Carolina, David Vitter of Louisiana and Jeff Sessions of Alabama — led the assault. They were joined by some civil libertarians and allies of organized labor who were dissatisfied with its protections for guest workers. Democrat Byron Dorgan of North Dakota repeatedly tried to gut the guest worker program before finally succeeding by one vote on his third effort.

With Reid showing increasing impatience over a debate that began on May 21, the Senate conducted three cloture votes on June 7 and each time came up short. Carrying out his threat, Reid pulled the bill off the floor, while Minority Lead-

The drama hides the bigger issue etween 1997 and 2006, consumers, lenders and builders created a housing bubble, and pretty much the entire establishment missed it. Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and the people who regulate them missed it. The big commercial banks and the people who regulate them missed it. The Federal Reserve missed it, as did the ratings agencies, the Securities and Exchange Commission and the political class in general.

It’s easy to see why this happened. People who make it into the establishment work and play well with others. They are part of the same overlapping social networks, and inevitably begin to perceive the world in similar, conventional ways.

They thrive in institutions where people are not rewarded for being cantankerous intellectual bomb-throwers.

Outside the establishment herd, on the other hand, there were contrarians who understood the bubble (which was the easy part) and who figured out how to take counteraction (which was hard). Michael Burry worked at a small hedge fund in Northern California. John Paulson ran an obscure fund in New York. Eventually, there were even a few traders at the big investment banks who also foresaw the imminent collapse. One of them was “Fabulous” Fabrice Tourre of Goldman Sachs.

If this were a Hollywood movie, the prescient outsiders would be good-looking, just and true, and we could all root for them as they outfoxed the smug establishment. But this is real life, so things are more complicated. According to Gregory Zuckerman’s book, “The Greatest Trade Ever,” Burry was a solitary small-time operator far away. Paulson was cold and diffident.

And as for Fabulous Fab, he seems to be the product of the current amoral Wall Street culture in which impersonal trading is more important than personal service to clients, and in which any product you can sell to some poor sucker is deemed to be admirable and OK In this drama, in other words, the establishment was pleasant, respectable and stupid, while the contrarians were smart but hard to love, and sometimes sleazy.

Last week the drama came to Washington in two different ways. First, as is traditional in our culture, the elected leaders of the clueless establishment have summoned the leaders of Goldman Sachs to a hearing so they can have a post-hoc televised conniption fit on the amorality of Wall Street.

This spectacle presents Goldman with an interesting public relations choice. The firm can claim to be dumb but decent, like the rest of the establishment, and emphasize the times it lost money. Or it can present itself as smart and sleazy, and emphasize the times it made money at the expense of its clients. Goldman seems to have chosen dumb but decent, which is probably the smart narrative to get back in the establishment’s good graces, even if it is less accurate.

The second big event in Washington this week is the jostling over a financial reform bill. One might have thought that one of the lessons of this episode was that establishments are prone to groupthink, and that it would be smart to decentralize authority in order to head off future bubbles.

Both Gregory Mankiw of Harvard and Sebastian Mallaby of the Council on Foreign Relations have been promoting a way to do this: Force the big financial institutions to issue bonds that would be converted into equity when a regulator deems them to have insufficient capital.

Thousands of traders would buy and sell these bonds as a way to measure and reinforce the stability of the firms.

The premise of the current financial regulatory reform is that the establishment missed the last bubble and, therefore, more power should be vested in the establishment to foresee and prevent the next one.

If you take this as your premise, the Democratic bill is fine and reasonable.

It would force derivative trading out into the open. It would create a structure so the government could break down failing firms in an orderly manner. But the bill doesn’t solve the basic epistemic problem, which is that members of the establishment herd are always the last to know when something unexpected happens.

If this were a movie, everybody would learn the obvious lessons.

But, again, this is not a Hollywood movie. Those lessons are not being learned. I can’t wait for the sequel.

Blame bad immigration law on Senate WASHINGTON — any in the media, including my colleagues at The Washington Post, Eugene Robinson and Richard Cohen, have written powerful and appropriate columns decrying the action of the Arizona Legislature and Gov. Jan Brewer in passing and signing a punitive law aimed at illegal immigrants.

If the law goes into effect despite promised constitutional challenges, local police in Arizona will be able to stop people they suspect may not belong here and require them to produce papers attesting that they are legal citizens. Jail terms for trespassing await anyone without the documentation.

The law is every bit as bad as others have said — but it is hardly a surprise.

What has been missing from the current discussion is any apparent recognition of those responsible for killing the last effort at comprehensive federal immigration reform that would have headed off the need for this kind of punitive state action.

It was only three years ago that the action was stymied by a Senate filibuster and the impatience of Majority Leader Harry Reid to move on to other topics. At the time, Sen. Edward Kennedy, then as always trying to fix the broken system, asked what opponents of the comprehensive legislation that died in June three years ago, were in favor of. “What are they going to do with the 12 million who are undocumented here?” Kennedy demanded to know.

“Send them back to countries around the world? Develop a type of Gestapo here to seek out these people that are in

Laura Bush: In her own words Former first lady keeps politics mostly out of memoir, focuses on life in Texas

By Michiko Kakutani New York Times News Service

Laura Bush’s new memoir, “Spoken From the Heart,” is really two books. The first is a deeply felt, keenly observed account of her childhood and youth in Texas — an account that captures a time and place with exacting emotional precision and that demonstrates how Bush’s lifelong love of books has imprinted her imagination. The second book is a thoroughly conventional autobiography by a politician’s wife — a rote recitation of travel, public appearances and meetings with foreign dignitaries that sheds not the faintest new light on the presidency of the author’s husband, George W. Bush.

In “Spoken From the Heart” (which was written with Lyric Winik, “who helped me put my story into words”), Bush acknowledges the role playing required of a political spouse.

On election night, she writes, you are to wear “the look of radiant relief at victory or brave composure at defeat.” And the second half of this volume is filled with the sort of spin and canned platitudes common in political autobiographies.

There are a few crumbs of political interest strewn along the way: The usually charitable Bush chastises the Democrats Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid for their “nasty personal criticisms of George,” and she writes that she has often wondered if Jacques Chirac of France or Gerhard Schroder of Germany “could have done more” to prevent the Iraq war, “if one of them could have persuaded Saddam to go into exile, if they could have conveyed that the United States was not bluffing.”

For the most part, however, the White House portions of this book feel carefully prepared and vetted: Bush lays out a predictable defense of her husband’s decision to invade Iraq and his decision not to visit New Orleans in the immediate aftermath of Katrina, and she offers only the blandest portraits of administration figures like Dick Cheney, Donald H. Rumsfeld and Karl Rove. In these chapters there is no daylight between Laura Bush and her highly groomed role as first lady.

Small-town Texas The opening sections of this book, however, are as revealing and evocative as the later ones are guarded. Writing with impressive recall, Bush conjures her hometown, Midland, Texas, with enormous detail, lyricism and feeling.

It’s a small town in the 1950s and early ’60s, when children looked forward to ice-cream sundaes and pony rides, and teenagers hung out at drive-in movies and drivein restaurants.

The world is part “The Last Picture Show” and part “American Graffiti,” but less sophisticated — a place where people gather the tumbleweeds that blow through town in the winter, tie them into threes and spray “them with white flocking to make desert snowmen for their lawns.” A place where people want houses with familiar floor plans (“a living room at the front, a den behind it, and a hallway with three bedrooms”) and think nothing of driving six hours to Dallas or El Paso for something to do.

“It was easy perhaps to be sad in Midland,” Bush writes, “sad from loss, sad from loneliness.

‘Terrible winds and a wonderful emptiness’ were the painter Georgia O’Keeffe’s double-edged words about the Texas desert plains, which I read years later, after I was grown.”

Bush adds that life with her parents was “not sad,” but a sense of loss and loneliness does blow through her descriptions of her childhood. Her mother had three miscarriages, and those “lost babies” haunted the young Laura. She says she knew how much her father wanted a son, and she longed for siblings when she found herself a solitary “child among the throngs at a crowded amusement park.” Instead there were solo picnics in the park over

on the next street and hours spent reading books like Nancy Drew, whom she identified with as another only child.

Roberts gives fans a series to ‘Savor’ “Savor The Moment”

by Nora Roberts (Berkley, 324 pgs., $16 paperback)

‘Unsinkable stone’

By Lezlie Patterson

A terrible car accident on the night of Nov. 6, 1963, when Laura was 17, would come close to derailing her life. On the way to the movies with a friend, she ran through a stop sign and crashed into another car; the other driver, a good friend from school named Mike Douglas, was killed. Bush rarely spoke of the accident in later years (it surfaced briefly in the national news media during her husband’s first run for the White House), but she offers here a remarkably raw and searing account of what happened.

“I can never absolve myself of the guilt,” she writes.

“And the guilt isn’t simply from Mike dying.

The guilt is from all the implications, from the way those few seconds spun out and enfolded so many other lives.

The reverberations seem to go on forever, like the ripples from an unsinkable stone.”

Bush says she lost her faith “that November, lost it for many, many years.” She was always the model-student type who strived not to disappoint, and the accident and her poor eyesight (corrected with glasses only in the second grade) seem to have intensified her sense of caution and love of order. She is someone who organized the books in one of her houses by the Dewey Decimal System.

That someone with such a heightened sense of the precariousness of life should have agreed, however reluctantly, to a life in the tumultuous, high-stress world of politics underscores both her devotion to her husband and her willingness to let him steer the course of their lives.

Nora Roberts is a strong enough writer that she doesn’t have to be at her best to give us our best romance stories.

When she is at her best? It’s something to savor. (Thought I’d go ahead and get that pun over with.)

Since Roberts gifted readers with the MacGregor series in 1985, she regularly has charmed, enchanted and thrilled romance fans with trilogies and quartets; she’s given us the royals de Cordina, the “Stars,” the Concannons, the Templetons, the Gallaghers, and more. Each series is delightful in its own way. With a few in recent years, Roberts has dabbled a bit with the paranormal and it worked.

This series focuses on four friends who have turned a childhood game into a grownup full-service bridal business.

In this third installment, Laurel, the baker of the group, finally has to admit and face her long-time feelings for Delaney, the older brother of best pal Parker.

Del has been the supportive older brother for years, treating Parker’s friends like sisters. Laurel has harbored her feelings for Delaney in secret, because she never thought he could reciprocate.

She, of course, was wrong.

It’s fun watching the “Quartet” juggle their love lives with the demanding bridal business. It’s also nice to see the interaction between the three couples (soon to be four.) As always, Roberts delivers strong banter, engaging characters and delves readers into a world she spins expertly with her words. She quite simply is an incredible writer and she’s at her best in this series.

Former first lady Laura Bush has written a memoir, “Spoken From the Heart,” about her life growing up in Midland, Texas, as well as the years she spent in the White House. impulsiveness and bravado, how she tamed his swagger and got him to give up drinking. In these pages Bush recalls that the mother of one of her friends marveled at the marriage of “the most eligible bachelor in Midland” to “the old maid of Midland.” (She was all of 31 at the time.)

For the most part, Laura dwells less on her and her husband’s differences here than on their being “two symbiotic souls.” Without being gooey about it, she gives us a portrait of herself and George (whom she calls “the biggest homebody known to man”), and their twin daughters, Jenna and Barbara, as a thoroughly unpretentious, close-knit family.

She writes nostalgically about her days as first lady of Texas, when she had the freedom to stand in line for stamps at the post office and take her daughters to Walmart, and how life in the White House changed all that.

The late afternoons in Washington, D.C., she writes, became “the emptiest”: The hours in Austin where she would have been grocery shopping or doing errands, became quiet time, where she “turned to books for comfort.”

Two leitmotifs wend their way through “Spoken From the

Heart”: one is the sense of love, safety and groundedness that Bush found in her marriage and family; the other is a more existential sense of isolation. She describes life in West Texas as “isolated” with “an underlying sense of hardship, a sense that the land could quickly turn unforgiving.”

She writes about the “isolating” aspect of her pre-marriage life as a schoolteacher — “it happens behind closed doors, one adult navigating the needs and complexities of twenty or more children.” And she describes life in the post-Sept.

11 White House, when anthrax attacks cut off the mail and she was no longer permitted to take strolls outside the gates, as increasingly constrained, her “own physical space” shrinking.

It was with a sense of relief, then, that Bush returned to private life in Texas in 2009. “Sometime during that first spring and summer back in Texas, I began to feel the buoyancy of my own newfound freedom,” she writes at the end of this odd and poignant book. “After nearly eight years of hypervigilance, of watching for the next danger or tragedy that might be coming, I could at last exhale. I could simply be.”

Author: Stop wasting a good panic

By James Pressley Bloomberg News

To understand why today’s economic crisis is a terrible thing to waste, consider the Panic of 1873, says Richard Florida in his latest ode to economic innovation, “The Great Reset: How New Ways of Living and Working Drive Post-Crash Prosperity” (Harper, $26.99).

That distant crisis boiled up from a sadly familiar bust in mortgages and building in Europe. It then rolled across the Atlantic to the United States, where Jay Cooke & Co. collapsed, triggering the fall of other financial firms. The Long Depression had begun. Iron mills shut down; railroads went bankrupt; jobs evaporated, sowing hunger and homelessness. The economy contracted for 65 months.

Yet when we think of that epoch today, we usually recall a brighter leg-

acy: a burst of revolutionary technologies such as Thomas Edison’s light bulb and first power station, Alexander Graham Bell’s telephone, George Westinghouse’s electric transformer.

What happened in these dark years?

“Times of crisis reveal what is and isn’t working,” Florida writes in this infectiously upbeat yet disappointing look at how our own crackup could prove a inflection point — a period when Schumpeterian “creative destruction” sweeps away obsolete systems, making room for innovation. He calls these episodes “Great Resets.”

A professor at the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management, Florida is known for his 2002 best seller, “The Rise of the Creative Class,” which posited that growth comes to cities that draw creative folks, from software developers to biotech engineers. He also founded the Creative Class Group, a consult-

ing firm whose clients include Goldman Sachs Group. His books can be read as pitches for more business.

His latest begins well, trotting out snappy, six-page chapters that show how the Long Depression and the Great Depression created chances to make America more dynamic and productive. Innovations don’t halt during a crisis, he explains; they just pile up, unused, because the economy is in the dumps. Entrepreneurs put new projects on hold, stockpiling ideas that surge forth as growth returns.

The “First Reset,” in the 19th century, brought us modern electricity grids, lighting homes and powering factories. In transportation, horsedrawn “omnibuses” gave way to streetcars. The percentage of Americans living in urban areas surged from less than 20 percent in the 1860s to 40 percent.

The second reset accelerated the movement from farm to city to suburbs. Appliances such as refrigerators spread; the share of households with radios jumped to 75 percent in the depths of the Depression. Technological dynamism improved machinery, assembly lines and power generation, Florida says. R&D spending doubled.

As for our own crisis, we’re wasting it: “The whole approach of throwing trillions of public dollars at the old economy is shortsighted, aimed at restoring our collective comfort level.”

Resets take time. They unfold over decades — “like motion pictures rather than snapshots” — making it impossible to predict what exactly the future will look like, Florida says.

While this is obviously true, it gives him an alibi for being vague. After a strong start, the book loses coherence and becomes a sequence of bouncy magazine articles on pet topics.

In his latest book, “The Great Reset: How New Ways of Living and Working Drive Post-Crash Prosperity,” Richard Florida concentrates on finding the good out of all the bad economic news.

Summer is the time for family road trips to explore the U.S. and expose family to real American history — along with sunburn, bug bites and blisters.

But what if there were more than 51 states to visit? Michael J. Trinklein has written stories about many “failed” or non-existent states, provided them with histories, and served them up in a fascinating book called “Lost States — True stories of Texlahoma, Transylvania, and Other States That Never Made It.” Restless Americans were never satisfied with where they were. If they didn’t like their current government, they might decide to create their own state.

Long Island, I’m looking at you.

Longer than Rhode Island, and home to Brooklyn, Queens and the rich enclave of the Hamptons, Long Island, N.Y., discussed becoming a state in 1898. The New York Times interviewed the super-rich magnate Aldoph Mollenhauer, who wanted to leave, saying “We’re tired of bosses and bossism.” The idea went nowhere. A century later it returned but never happened.

Long Island, and its tax revenue, remain part of New York State.

One Congressional representative after World War II considered a proposal to bring Iceland in as a state. It looked like a good place to have a military base to watch the Soviet Union.

The proposal melted away and Iceland remains its own country, complete with erupting volcanoes and clouds of ash.

It’s hard to write good baseball fiction. The game is so unlikely, so bizarre at times, that it’s a challenge to the fiction writer’s imagination to do it justice.

Who, for instance, could have invented Johnny Damon’s at-bat in the ninth inning of Game 4 of the World Series last fall? He appeared to have been struck out by Brad Lidge (it was a foul tip), only to fight back and hit a single, and went on to steal two bases on a single play. From a near strikeout to third base in just a couple of pitches: You can’t make that stuff up.

This is the challenge Stephen King faces in “Blockade Billy,” a novella (actually more of a long short story) about a player whose career has been literally erased.

Such a setup is reminiscent, in an offhand way, of Philip Roth’s 1973 fantasy “The Great American Novel,” in which a now-forgotten third major league, the Patriot League, is expunged from baseball history after having been exposed as a communist front.

The main part of “The Great American Novel” involves a team from New Jersey, the Port Ruppert Mundys, that suffers through the worst season of all time; “Blockade Billy” too takes place in New Jersey, although the team here, the Newark Titans, appears (at first glance, anyway) to have been blessed instead of cursed. That’s because, as the book begins, the Titans have just brought up a rookie catcher, Bill Blakely, who not only can handle the position but also is possibly the greatest hitter anyone has ever seen.

Of course, “Blockade Billy” being a Stephen King story, there are bound to be complications, and indeed, these eventually lead to the downfall of the player and the team. It’s not giving anything away to say that; King gleefully telegraphs this from the start. “We contended for a while, partly thanks to Blockade Billy,” the aging coach

who narrates the story tells us, “but you know how that turned out.” The book, then, purports to share the saga of what happened: why Blakely was stricken from the record books, even as the Titans were forced to replay every game in which he played.

It’s an extreme situation, one that isn’t entirely believable, and that’s an unintended tension in the story. To his credit, however, King gives it a low-grade urgency, tracing the lowly Titans’ pennant hopes, the belief that their luck may have finally changed.

Perhaps the most compelling character here is Titans pitcher Danny Dusen, an ornery oldtimer four games away from his 200th win. He takes the young Blakely — nicknamed Blockade Billy for his acuity at blocking the plate — under his wing, teaching him the slow burn of resentment that has always fueled the veteran player’s game.

“It was funny and creepy at the same time,” King’s narrator tells us of a pregame meeting between the two. “The Doo was intense — leaning forward, eyes flashing while he talked. ...

I almost said something because I wanted to break up that connection. Talking about it to you, I think maybe my subconscious mind had already put a lot of it together.”

Here, King brings the novella’s themes together: the conflict between excitement and fixation, between what is on the surface and what lurks underneath.

In the end, though, “Blockade Billy” suffers from his inability to balance the two. On the one hand, the story has the rosy, backward-looking tone of a John Tunis book, with its portrait of an era when “the game was smaller … (and) the players weren’t such a big deal.” On the other, King injects a dose of 1950s darkness (the story takes place in 1957).

“Blockade Billy” is hardly essential King; it’s a short book that he’s given to a small press in Maryland. There’s nothing wrong with that, but you have to wonder if it would have appeared in print any other way.

Like all King’s work, it has momentum, but reading it, ultimately, is like watching a big leaguer sit in with a farm team.

PowerPoint Continued from F1 In McMaster’s view, PowerPoint’s worst offense is not a chart like the spaghetti graphic, which was first uncovered by NBC’s Richard Engel, but rigid lists of bullet points (in, say, a presentation on a conflict’s causes) that take no account of interconnected political, economic and ethnic forces. “If you divorce war from all of that, it becomes a targeting exercise,” McMaster said.

Commanders say that behind all the PowerPoint jokes are serious concerns that the program stifles discussion, critical thinking and thoughtful decision-making. Not least, it ties up junior officers — referred to as PowerPoint Rangers — in the daily preparation of slides, be it for a meeting of the Joint Staff in Washington or for a platoon leader’s pre-mission combat briefing in a remote pocket of Afghanistan.

Last year when a military website, Company Command, asked an Army platoon leader in Iraq, Lt. Sam Nuxoll, how he spent most of his time, he responded, “Making PowerPoint slides.” When pressed, he said he was serious.

“I have to make a storyboard complete with digital pictures, diagrams and text summaries on just about anything that happens,” Nuxoll told the website. “Conduct a key leader engagement? Make a storyboard.

Award a microgrant? Make a storyboard.”

Embedded technology Despite such tales, “death by PowerPoint,” the phrase used to described the numbing sensation that accompanies a 30-slide briefing, seems here to stay. The program, which first went on sale in 1987 and was acquired

by Microsoft soon afterward, is deeply embedded in a military culture that has come to rely on PowerPoint’s hierarchical ordering of a confused world.

“There’s a lot of PowerPoint backlash, but I don’t see it going away anytime soon,” said Capt. Crispin Burke, an Army operations officer at Fort Drum, N.Y., who under the name Starbuck wrote an essay about PowerPoint on the website Small Wars Journal that cited Nuxoll’s comment.

In a daytime telephone conversation, he estimated that he spent an hour each day making PowerPoint slides. In an initial e-mail message responding to the request for an interview, he wrote, “I would be free tonight, but unfortunately, I work kind of late (sadly enough, making PPT slides).”

Defense Secretary Robert Gates reviews printed-out PowerPoint slides at his morning staff meeting, although he insists on getting them the night before so he can read ahead and cut back the briefing time.

Gen. David Petraeus, who oversees the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and says that sitting through some PowerPoint briefings is “just agony,” nonetheless likes the program for the display of maps and statistics showing trends. He has also conducted more than a few PowerPoint presentations himself.

McChrystal gets two PowerPoint briefings in Kabul per day, plus three more during the week. Mattis, despite his dim view of the program, said a third of his briefings are by PowerPoint.

Richard Holbrooke, the Obama administration’s special representative for Afghanistan and Pakistan, was given PowerPoint briefings during a trip to Afghanistan last summer at each of three stops — Kandahar, Mazari-Sharif and Bagram Air Base.

At a fourth stop, Herat, the Italian forces there not only provided Holbrooke with a PowerPoint briefing, but accompanied it with swelling orchestral music.

President Barack Obama was shown PowerPoint slides, mostly maps and charts, in the White House Situation Room during the Afghan strategy review last fall.

Concerns, complaints Commanders say that the slides impart less information than a five-page paper can hold, and that they relieve the briefer of the need to polish writing to convey an analytic, persuasive point. Imagine lawyers presenting arguments before the Supreme Court in slides instead of legal briefs.

Burke’s essay in the Small Wars Journal also cited a widely read attack on PowerPoint in Armed Forces Journal last summer by Thomas X. Hammes, a retired Marine colonel, whose title, “Dumb-Dumb Bullets,” underscored criticism of fuzzy bullet points; “accelerate the introduction of new weapons,” for instance, does not actually say who should do so.

No one is suggesting that PowerPoint is to blame for mistakes in the current wars, but the program did become notorious during the prelude to the invasion of Iraq. As recounted in the book “Fiasco” by Thomas E. Ricks (Penguin Press, 2006), Lt. Gen. David D. McKiernan, who led the allied ground forces in the 2003 invasion of Iraq, grew frustrated when he could not get Gen. Tommy R. Franks, the commander at the time of American forces in the Persian Gulf region, to issue orders that stated explicitly how he wanted the invasion conducted, and why. Instead, Franks just passed on to McKiernan the vague PowerPoint slides that he had already shown to Donald H. Rumsfeld, the defense secretary at the time.

Senior officers say the program does come in handy when the goal is not imparting information, as in briefings for reporters.

The news media sessions often last 25 minutes, with five minutes left at the end for questions from anyone still awake. Those types of PowerPoint presentations, Hammes said, are known as “hypnotizing chickens.”

Helene Cooper of The New York Times contributed reporting.

Police mystery transcends the routine in fifth novel to be an inside job, especially since the father seems oddly unconcerned about the child. The family’s secrets are about to become common knowledge.

As Jonathan and Serena search for the toddler, the hunt also is on for a serial killer who is attacking women living in remote farms. His latest target appears to be a young policewoman who saw him attack a victim.

“The Burying Place”

by Brian Freeman (Minotaur, 340 pgs., $24.99)

By Oline H. Cogdill (Florida) Sun Sentinel

Although a police procedural powers the mystery facet of “The Burying Place,” buried emotions that put characters on the edge fuel the heart of Brian Freeman’s fifth novel about Minnesota police detective Jonathan Stride.

What could have been a routine procedural is elevated

by Freeman’s thoughtful exploration of characters who may succumb to the trauma in their lives.

By paralleling what seems like two divergent crimes, Freeman exposes flawed lives consumed by a variety of fears.

Recovering from a neardeath experience, Jonathan has retreated to his cabin, taking time off work. Emotionally remote from his girlfriend, Serena Dial, also a cop, he can’t admit that panic attacks have nearly paralyzed him.

Before he’s ready to return to work, he’s asked to investigate the kidnapping of an 11-month-old daughter of an arrogant Grand Rapids surgeon. The kidnapping seems

twist. Each character must deal with his or her own “fault lines, little hairline cracks that seemed like nothing until the weight of pressure and time burst them open,” as well as the terror of their secrets becoming public.

Freeman’s dark vision has served him well in his awardwinning series, which began with the enthralling “Immoral” in 2005. But there is a softer side to Freeman. Under the pseudonym of Ally O’Brien, Freeman and his London-based entertainment agent, Ali Gunn, wrote the chicklit best-seller “The Agency.”

Author researches MLK assassination

By Craig Seligman Bloomberg News

Looking back at the late 1960s through the prism of “Hair” and the Beatles’ White Album, it seems like an appealing era. It was. But it was also frightening and ugly. Hampton Sides conjures the full paranoia in “Hellhound on His Trail: The Stalking of Martin Luther King Jr. and the International Hunt for His Assassin” (Doubleday, $28.95).

Sides is a crack research artist with a feel for both halves of the American chronicle, the grandeur and the violence. In his last book, “Blood and Thunder” — a thrilling history of the conquest of the West — he confronted a national horror, the subjugation of the Navajos, without tarring the heroism of the settlers. It was a feat of narrative subtlety.

The period he’s writing about this time is altogether more depressing. Cities burned. Vietnam festered, driving an ugly wedge between King and his former ally, President Lyndon B. Johnson. King’s murder, by a lowlife George Wallace fanatic named James Earl Ray, hastened the

denouement (Sides’s word) of the civil rights movement.

Sides structures the book around the contrasting personalities of King (ebullient, sorrowful) and Ray (barely there). King wasn’t feeling triumphant at the end of his life. He was weary and distraught over the direction of his movement. American blacks had grown increasingly angry and impatient, and violence simmered everywhere.

Soon after his murder, Sides reports, fires broke out in about 150 American cities, “resulting in 40 deaths, thousands of injuries, and some 21,000 arrests.”

Johnson himself said, in a moment of despair, “If I were a kid in Harlem, I know what I’d be thinking. I’d be thinking that whites had declared open season on my people — that they’re going to pick us off one by one unless I get a gun and pick them off first.”

As for the killer, the author stays right next to him from April 23, 1967, the day he escaped from the Missouri State Penitentiary, where he was serving time for armed robbery, to June 8, 1968, when he was

Hampton Sides aptly describes both the appealing and the frightening aspects of the late 1960s in “Hellhound on his Trail: The Stalking of Martin Luther King Jr. and the International Hunt for His Assassin.” seized at Heathrow Airport in London nine weeks after King’s assassination.

Since “Hellhound on His Trail” is a tale of clear good and evil, it lacks the moral complexity of “Blood and Thunder.” That makes it a somewhat lesser book. But it’s still a page turner, and something more: It brings the disquiet of an era fully alive.

County jobs up in at least one sector — government

By David Holley The Bulletin

30-year rates dip The average rates on 30year mortgages edged down slightly, closer to 5 percent, last week from the week before. Freddie Mac reported Thursday the average rate for 30-year fixed-rate mortgages was 5.06 percent, compared with 5.07 percent the week before, but up from 4.84 percent a year ago.

Low rates have helped moderate housing price declines over the course of the year, according to Freddie Mac.

Apple shuts down Lala music service Four months after buying Lala Media’s popular online music service for a reported $80 million, Apple is pulling the plug on the site, which had been operating for five years.

Lala notified its users in an e-mail Friday of the shutdown.

Apple spokesman Jason Roth confirmed the plans, but declined to say whether the Cupertino, Calif., company will resurrect the service under Apple’s iTunes brand.

Lala lets users listen to any song in its catalog in its entirety once for free. After which, listeners can sample the song again for 30 seconds or buy a digital download of the song for 89 cents.

What separated Lala from other music services, however, was its concept of a “Web song.� Listeners could play a song an unlimited number of times for 10 cents, as long as they are connected to the site.

The difference: Downloaded songs are stored on a user’s computer and can be copied to other computers and devices. Web song files sit on Lala’s computers and can only be played while the listener is connected to the Lala site.

This is sometimes called “cloud� access.

There has been much speculation about whether Apple would use Lala’s technology to create its own music streaming subscription service to compete with Rhapsody or MOG. While cloud computing offers convenience, the downside is clear in the case of Lala. Many users who have spent years diligently building their “digital lockers� on Lala woke up to find that those collections will evaporate May 31.

While employment declined in nearly every industry in Deschutes County during the past two years, one sector saw growth: government.

The public sector added 130 jobs between March 2008 and March 2010, according to the Oregon Employment Department, upping county government jobs by 1.5 percent to 8,970. One other industry, educational and health services, rose by 0.6 percent — or 60 jobs — to during 9,000 that period.

But all other private sector industries saw a decline during the same two years,

New operators, new ideas for a popular marina

But growth in government now doesn’t mean it will continue to add jobs in the coming years, said David Cooke, an economist with the Employment Department.

The opposite is likely to be true, he said, in part because the governor’s proposed budget for 2011-13 “calls for substantial reductions in general fund money,� resulting in a possible reduction of state staffing. “It’s quite likely that government employment, especially state government employment, could be declining in the next few years because of the budget cycle,� Cooke said.

By Andrew Moore The Bulletin

The Cove Palisades State Park, along the shores of Lake Billy Chinook outside of Culver, is the second most-visited state park east of the Cascades. And this year, for the first time since the park’s marina was turned over to private management in 1991, it will have a new concessionaire.

Cove Palisades Resort Inc. won the concession in bidding late last year to take over operation of the 140-slip marina and store.

The company is owned by Gary Popp, a Crooked River Ranch businessman who also owns Lake Billy Chinook Houseboats, a separate Redmond-based company that rents houseboats from a dock next to Three Rivers Marina along the lake’s Metolius arm.

Stand along the lake’s shore and it’s not hard to figure out why the lake is so popular: More than 72 miles of shoreline, 4,000 surface acres of water and stunning vistas framed by towering cliffs of lava rock. “This is Oregon’s Lake Powell,� said Brett Davies, the manager of Cove Palisades Resort, referring to the giant reservoir in the redrock country along the border of Utah and Arizona.

Like Lake Powell, Lake Billy Chinook also is known for houseboating. In fact, it’s practically the only place in Oregon to rent a houseboat, according to the state’s Parks and Recreation Department.

City doesn’t appear cold to business

A

pparently, there are numerous businesses owners in Bend who don’t think the city is very friendly to business, that it’s indifferent toward businesses’ success or failure.

That’s according to findings from a Bend Chamber of Commerce survey released in March to determine issues with which businesses are struggling. It was not meant to be a scientific survey.

While businesses’ complaints referenced numerous sources, the city’s planning and permitting process took some shots, general in nature and absent specific suggestions for improvement. The chamber plans another survey by June to vet more specifically the issues businesses might have, according to Tim Casey, the chamber’s executive director. “My goal is to try to not toss bombs at the city,� said Casey, who hopes the follow-up survey will identify the top three issues for business and possible solutions to share with the city, “just so that they have a different perspective from maybe city staff and City Council.� He credits City Manager Eric King’s willingness for details on areas the city can improve.

Among the targets of businesses’ complaints in the survey: the city’s system development charges for limiting job growth and business attraction, and its permitting and planning process for struggles in opening or expanding businesses.

Evidence, however, seems to indicate the city has helped plenty in those areas.

Instead, as Casey suggested was possible, frustrations apparent in the survey might reflect general economic stress in the business community, which could translate into frustration with the city.

Makes sense. After all, government these days seems a popular target for many gripes. While the city can always do things better, it’s hard to label it unfriendly to business considering the following actions taken the past two years, as listed by Mel Oberst, director of Bend’s Community Development Department: • Deferred system development charges, which had to be paid when a building permit was picked up but now can be paid nine months after that or financed over 10 years at 7 percent interest. • Extended from one year up to three the time in which construction must begin after a building permit is issued. That allows time for market conditions to improve and projects to pencil out. • Expedited the permit review process, including an option to move a project to the front of the review line for a fee. • Created a Bend Economic Development Advisory Board to promote job recruitment and retention. • Created a $100,000 annual fund for forgivable loans to smaller businesses locating or relocating in Bend to help with expenses like moving or tenant improvements if the business creates a certain number of jobs over a specific period, otherwise the loan must be repaid. • Applied to the state for enterprise zones that would provide tax breaks to businesses moving into the special areas. • Created a one-stop permit center for all development permitting. • Adopted development code amendments to streamline the review and permitting process. That effort continues and includes removing contradictions and duplications for ease of use. • Implemented an electronic plan review system to increase the accuracy and speed of plan reviews. • Began work on a database of all Bend industrial buildings or vacant lots to include information on things like zoning, occupancy ratings and whether the property has outstanding system development charges. The idea: Fully inform buyers before they commit financing. “We have a very, very strong can-do helping attitude now,â€? Oberst said. Some survey respondents may have complained about delayed projects, “but they were probably delayed because we were just being regulators and doing our job.â€?

That’s something for which the city should be credited, not faulted.

King said the city also is reaching out by forming a group of community and business leaders to advise Bend on prioritizing infrastructure work on things like roads and sewer and water and systems and how they could be funded. “By no means do we want to come across as being indifferent at all,� King said, adding that he’s all for drilling deeper in future chamber surveys to get productive suggestions for improvement.

Sounds pretty business-friendly to me.

Expected merger means smooth flying for analysts

By Christopher Hinton MarketWatch

New York Times News Service

Members of a cleanup crew load equipment onto a waiting boat in Venice, La., on Thursday, the day President Barack Obama increased the administration’s role in the vast oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.

Oil spill blackens BP’s image as well as drains its coffers

By Clifford Krauss New York Times News Service

HAMMOND, La. — BP says the offshore drilling accident that is spewing thousands of barrels of oil a day into the Gulf of Mexico could cost the company several hundred million dollars.

Nobody really knows whether the London-based oil giant is being too conservative about the cost for the April 20 accident, which some experts say could end up as the biggest oil spill in history.

The 1989 grounding of the Exxon Valdez off Alaska, for example, cost Exxon Mobil more than $4.3 billion, including compensatory payments, cleanup costs, settlements and fines.

But regardless of the out-ofpocket costs, the long-term damage to BP’s reputation — and possibly, its future prospects for drilling in the Gulf of Mexico — is likely to be far higher, according to industry analysts.

The magnitude of the Deepwater Horizon disaster seems to be finally sinking in with investors.

BP’s stock plunged more than 8 percent Thursday in American trading in an otherwise strong day for stocks. Since the accident, the American depositary receipts of the company have fallen about 13 percent.

For Tony Hayward, who has led BP for the past three years, the accident threatens to overshadow all of the efforts he has made to burnish the tattered reputation of the company after a refinery explosion in Texas in 2005 and a pipeline leak in Alaska in 2006.

A BP spokesman said no executives were available for an interview Thursday. But in response to a written question, Hayward said, “Reputationally, and in every other way, we will be judged by the quality, intensity, speed and efficacy of our response.”

So far, the company’s failure to stop the seepage from the un-

derwater well has frustrated government officials. On Thursday, President Barack Obama offered the assistance of an array of government agencies, including the military, while noting that, under federal law, “BP is ultimately responsible for funding the cost of response and cleanup operations.”

Hayward, who has blamed the rig’s owner and operator, Transocean, for the accident, said it was nevertheless BP’s responsibility to deal with the immediate problem.

“We take it with the utmost seriousness,” he wrote. “Nothing else matters right now.”

$6 million a day Wall Street experts say that while the company is spending an estimated $6 million a day on fixing the mess, it is impossible to accurately estimate how much the incident will eventually cost.

BP, which leased the platform from Transocean, has said that drilling and operating relief wells to plug the runaway well may cost as much as $300 million, but those same wells will eventually be used to produce profitable oil.

The cost of an environmental cleanup will depend largely on how much oil reaches shore. The government could assess fines or other penalties. And lawyers have already filed a flurry of suits on behalf of commercial fisherman, shrimpers and injured oil workers.

Regardless of the final assessment of blame, Wall Street analysts warned that everything BP does from now on will come under increased scrutiny by regulators and that potential partners in drilling ventures may well look elsewhere.

“In the last two years, it seemed BP had really cleaned up their act,” said Fadel Gheit, a managing director and oil analyst at Oppen-

heimer & Co. “Now it looks like a house of cards that has totally collapsed.”

‘Beyond Petroleum’ and safety concerns Under Hayward’s predecessor, John Browne, BP rebranded itself as “Beyond Petroleum,” a company that was environmentally conscious and wanted to develop alternative energy sources like solar and wind power. Its insignia of a blooming flower was intended to portray the company as one that was responsive to growing public concerns about climate change.

But the company seemed to lose its focus on maintenance and safety, BP executives later acknowledged. Hayward, a geologist who had been in charge of exploration and production, took over and promised to refocus the company and change the culture, emphasizing safety.

He also expanded the company’s already aggressive exploratory efforts in the deep waters of the gulf. Last year, the same platform that has now sunk to the sea floor drilled the deepest well in history, opening one of the largest new fields in the world.

Despite the accident, BP says it remains committed to its gulf drilling program, which contributes 11 percent of the company’s worldwide production.

The faltering cleanup effort comes at a time when the company’s business is otherwise going well. Continuing the excellent performance of recent years, BP just announced earnings of $5.6 billion for the first quarter, more than double the profit during the same quarter a year ago.

“Certainly, BP will survive this,” said Cathy Milostan, an oil stock analyst at Morningstar. “This will test Tony and his ability to respond to this situation. We will see if we are seeing a new BP.”

NEW YORK — Continental and United Airlines parent UAL Corp. are expected to announce a merger deal early this week, creating a global airline with little route overlap and new opportunities to attract more premium-paying travelers.

“I see nothing but positives,” said Roger King, a bond analyst with CreditSights. “These guys will have the best global network of any airline.”

UAL brings to the union a strong transpacific presence that Continental lacks. While Continental has more routes to Latin America and its hub at Newark International Airport, a key domestic gateway between Europe and the U.S. “I think United’s lucrative Pacific routes were the tipping point for Continental to merge,” said Robert Herbst, an analyst with AirlineFinancials.com. “It will help increase premium traffic from Asia and push yields higher, but mostly from the business side.”

Price hikes ahead?

Ticket prices could climb for some overseas routes due to less competition, but Terry Trippler from travel advisory firm Rules to Know said that will be short term.

“In the long run this will be good for travelers,” he said.

“Many more international flights, more international gateways … more flights to Asia.”

United and Continental boards reportedly have met to discuss the final details of the agreement. UAL declined to comment and Continental didn’t immediately respond to phone calls.

Analysts expect U.S. antitrust regulators will give the new airline its approval.

Continental’s major hubs are in Cleveland, Houston and Newark, while United’s hubs are in Denver, Los Angeles, Chicago, San Francisco, and Washington, D.C. There may be some capacity reductions for major markets as result of the merger, but budget carriers are likely to step in to fill any gaps.

Combining operations between United and Continental is expected to go fairly smoothly. They have a close relationship on international routes through the Star Alli-

“It means one less legacy carrier to buy planes; one less carrier to add capacity when the economy is getting better.”

— Hunter Keay, analyst ance, and they share some ticketing, frequent-flier benefits, and certain ground and marketing operations.

Labor considerations Labor could create some headwinds, but pilot and flight attendant groups from both airlines are currently in contract negotiations, increasing the opportunities for management to offer better pay and benefits to get personnel on board. United has reportedly offered to lift its flight attendant pay to match that of Continental.

Pilots, a key group that Delta Airlines and Northwest went to great lengths to satisfy before fully committing to a merger deal in 2008, belong to the same umbrella labor organization, the Air Line Pilots Association. That group has in place a policy for integrating pilot seniority lists in case of a merger. Because of the minimal overlap between, layoffs and furloughs will likely be few.

Regardless of how smoothly the carriers join forces, the ultimate winner is still the industry as a whole, according to Hunter Keay, an analyst with Stifel Nicolaus.

“The big strength is a long-term one because it means one less legacy carrier to buy planes; one less carrier to add capacity when the economy is getting better.”

Cove Continued from G1 But the lake is also a mecca for campers, anglers and water sports enthusiasts, many of whom come from outside Central Oregon, said Holli Van Wert, executive director of the Madras-Jefferson County Chamber of Commerce.

“We’ve never studied the economic impact of the lake on the county, but were it to dry up tomorrow, it would be extremely damaging financially,” Van Wert said.

Getting prepared to serve many of the daily visitors to the park — there were 500,000 in 2009, according to the state Parks and Recreation Department — is Cove Palisades Resort, which plans to make some changes to the marina.

Popp was unavailable for comment last week, but Davies said he and Popp have a vision for the park’s marina that includes expanded amenities and some novelties, such as “boat-up pizza.”

“Where have you heard of that?” asked Davies excitedly, saying boaters will be able to call the cafe in the marina’s store to order pizza and then pull up to the marina to pick it up.

“We had some ideas to make the marina more pleasurable, to add to the boating experience, and (bidding on the concession) was just a great opportunity to reach more people,” Davies said.

The new concessionaire will sell gas and rent houseboats and pontoon boats just as the previous one did, but Davies said there will be some new rental items at the marina this year, including luxury houseboats with hot tubs and water slides, wave runners, towable water toys and a motorized “island” that allows up to 15 people to board and includes parking for two wave runners.

“You can take it out on the lake and two people can use the wave runners, then come in and park them and two more can go out,” Davies said. “It’s stuff like that where we thought we could make (the marina) a more complete experience.”

Government Continued from G1 Government hiring cycles are slower than those in private industries because they’re dependent on the revenue from taxes, Cooke said, and taxes have been lower during the past two years as construction and permit requests stagnated. Cooke said government typically lags about 1½ years behind the private sector.

That matches up with statistics reported by the Employment Department.

Employment in Deschutes County’s government sector has declined since March 2009, when there were 9,220 part- or full-time employees in federal, state or local government posts. It had dropped to 8,970 by March 2010.

One reason more government employees were added to the payroll during the recession was to deal with the increasing numbers of people requesting government services such as unemployment insurance and food stamps, Cooke said. Both the federal and state stimulus packages upped spending in such areas as highway construction, Cooke said, adding even more people to the pay sheets.

“It takes a number of months, and more than a year, before budgets are reduced substantially,” Cooke said.

Government’s role in the wider economy Still, a rise in government employment, while most private sectors are suffering, remains a hotly contested subject. Some say adding government jobs during a recession stunts growth in the private sector, while others contend they keep the economy alive.

Adding government jobs, which account for about 15 percent of total nonfarm employment in Deschutes County, during a recession pays off for the economy as a whole, said Joy Margheim, a policy analyst for the Oregon Center for Public Policy, a think tank in Silverton.

Not only do additional public employees help provide services, such as food stamps or unemployment insurance, for the growing demand recessions bring, they also spend money out in private industries, she said.

“Being consumers (and) spending helped boost the economy in the recession,” Margheim said.

“As we come out of this recession, you’re going to see public sector ratcheting down.”

Steve Buckstein, a policy analyst and the founder of another think tank, the Cascade Policy Institute, doesn’t believe that. Buck-

Popp will continue to rent houseboats through his other company at the Three Rivers location, Davies said.

The Cove Palisades marina — which is just north of the park’s day-use area — also includes picnic grounds, a boathouse and a large sun deck wrapped around a 2,400-square-foot convenience store. The store includes a cafe and will have a wireless Internet connection for customers.

The marina’s slips are available for rental on a short- or long-term basis. Boating season began April 1 and runs through Oct. 31.

Davies, who also helps manage Lake Billy Chinook Houseboats, said the recession hurt recreation spending in 2008 and 2009, but he’s encouraged by the number of phone calls both businesses have been receiving this year.

“The phone’s been ringing pretty good, so it looks like it will be an exciting summer,” Davies said.

“It’s recreation. People seem to always find a way to do that.”

Popp’s newly formed Cove Palisades Resort outbid the marina’s former concessionaire, The Cove Palisades Restaurant and Marina Inc., which had managed the marina since 1991. The Cove Palisades Restaurant and Marina was owned by Jim Cyr, who became a partner in the company in 1999 and assumed full ownership in 2000.

The concession is for five years.

Per Popp’s winning bid, he will pay the state 3.5 percent of his company’s gross sales in addition to an annual fee of $60,000.

Cyr’s bid was for $60,000 plus 2 percent of gross sales, according to Chris Havel, with the Parks and Recreation Department.

In 2009, the concession yielded the state $70,195, which was up 10 percent from the $63,800 received in 2008, Havel said.

Oh, and in case you were wondering: The most-popular state park east of the Cascades? Bend’s Pilot Butte State Scenic Viewpoint, according to the Parks and Recreation Department.

stein believes that once government grows, it never shrinks.

Instead of adding permanent positions to departments such as the Oregon Department of Transportation or the Department of Environmental Quality — which hire workers such as engineers or people who measure automobile emissions — those workers could be hired through private companies. He said government growth hinders private citizens’ ability to accumulate wealth, which could in turn be used to create more jobs.

“People should control their own lives,” Buckstein said. “As the government sector grows, that reduces the freedom.”

Realistically, said Roger Lee, executive director of Economic Development for Central Oregon, any overdependency on one industry — public or private — is a bad thing for an economy.

“You risk a big stumble,” said Lee, adding that Central Oregon had an overconcentration on construction and the housing market, or the timber industry, in years past.

Lee said EDCO’s mission is to bring greater diversity to the Central Oregon economy by seeking high-tech firms or manufacturers with jobs that pay living-wage salaries.

Education Cooke, the Employment Department economist, said increases in higher education enrollment is another reason there has been growth government workers.

As more people return to community colleges or public universities — parts of local and state government, respectively — more educators and administrators must be hired to work there, he said.

Margheim, of the Oregon Center for Public Policy, said she thinks the public and private sector work together: When one starts declining, the other steps in.

“You’re all together in the same economy, and keeping that (private) sector healthy is part of making the rest of us healthy as we start to build out of the recession,” Margheim said.

Buckstein, of the Cascade Policy Institute, maintains that too much government growth prevents progress in the private sector.

“If the money was free, it would be harder to complain,” Buckstein said. “The more the government grows, the bigger burden they place on the people who produce the income in the first place.”

Ways to save when job hunting

By Gregory Karp The Morning Call (Allentown, Pa.)

One service Martha Finney, author of “Unlock the Hidden Job Market,” would pay for?

Job interview practice.

You might hire a human-resources person you know to help refine your techniques. “That would be money very well spent,” she says.

When you’re out of work, the last thing you need to do is waste money.

“Nothing sets someone up for being played for a patsy like being lazy, being scared and being in a hurry. When you’re out of work and desperate for a new job, you’re at least two out of those three,” said Martha Finney, author of “Unlock the Hidden Job Market.”

But some job-hunting expenses could be worth paying. Here’s what Finney finds worthwhile and what’s not.

Résumé writing Hiring a résumé-writing service can be dicey. Anyone can call herself a résumé writer, and one writer can’t be knowledgeable about every industry. Résumé writing costs vary widely, from $50 to more than $1,000. If a résumé writer is just feeding your words into a résumé-writing program to make it look pretty, you can do that yourself.

But Robyn Feldberg, president of the National Résumé Writers’ Association, contends that many do-it-yourselfers don’t tie their job responsibilities to results, while others have trouble explaining gaps in their work history. She says 90 percent of job hunters have room for significant improvement in their résumés, which can land them a job with better pay and benefits.

If you hire a writer, ask for samples, references and whether the writer will interview you.

Networking meals Job-hunt experts often say networking can be far more important than sending hundreds of résumés, but all those lunches and dinners can get expensive.

“When you’re networking for work, you don’t have to feed your connections,” Finney said. “What they do want you to do is make the networking event easy for them. So meet

on duds makes sense. Check out high-end consignment shops, which offer used suits and other professional wear for far less than new.

Mock interviews

them at their office, and let them offer you coffee.”

Or counter an offer for a dinner meeting with a less-expensive coffee meeting.

Image consulting Women can go to a high-end department store for a free makeover at the cosmetics counter and get a personal shopper to help with clothes, Finney said. Or trust a candid friend.

Industry conferences Conferences can be a great networking opportunity that could lead to a job. Trouble is, they’re often expensive.

“There are so many ways you can get into conferences for free if you’re willing to volunteer, which is also a great way to get

International markets push Avon sales up, profits down The Associated Press NEW YORK — A currency devaluation in Venezuela, costs related to a bribery investigation in China and restructuring charges drove Avon Products Inc.’s profit down 64 percent in the first quarter.

But consumers in many international markets spent more on Avon’s cosmetics and other products, and its revenue climbed 15 percent, the company said Friday.

Avon, whose force of thousands of independent sellers ballooned during the recession as unemployed workers sought new income, increased its marketing spending during the quarter and continued to recruit sellers to promote its low-price products, some of which sell for less than $5.

Its outside sales force grew 6 percent, and it spent 23 percent more than a year earlier mar-

keting its brands, which include Skin-So-Soft and Mark, as well as Avon.

Avon’s revenue fell 2 percent in North America, and units sold were flat, hurt by weakness in its non-beauty business.

Regionally, the biggest drop — 31 percent — came in China in both direct sales and sales at the company’s beauty boutiques. Its sales were up more than 20 percent in Latin America and Central and Eastern Europe, two key markets for Avon.

acquainted with people casually, which can lead you to surprising networking connections,” Finney said.

Use Priceline.com, Hotwire. com and other sites for cheap airfare, car rentals and hotels.

Job websites for a fee You can post your résumé on some job boards for free, and you might as well. But paying for the privilege becomes riskier.

“Job boards are really dreary opportunities to feel like a loser sitting by an unringing telephone,” Finney said. “Only this time, you’re paying for the privilege.”

Of course, take advantage of free job-hunt resources provided by your community, local government or previous employer. And remember, money you spend on your job hunt might be tax deductible if you itemize.

Profit potential fuels offshore Convenience store recovery driven wind ventures by ... well, convenience, sales show “Maybe customers feel a little better about letting go of some money.”

— Dennis Phelps, senior director of beverages for 7-Eleven Inc.

BERLIN — Despite stormy seas, a higher costs and a lack of work ships, utilities around the world are pushing to develop offshore wind power to make almost twice the profit they would on land.

Last week, they began running Germany’s first windmills in deep water, anchored more than 65 feet below the surface. Across the Atlantic, the United States approved plans two days ago for that nation’s first offshore turbines near Cape Cod. “Offshore technology is the future, with excellent growth potential and tremendous opportunities,” said Werner Brinker, chief executive officer of EWE, the German utility partner of Duesseldorf-based E.ON and Vattenfall in the $331 million project in the North Sea. Investment in ocean-based windmills will rise about 30 percent this year to $3.9 billion, outpacing growth of less than 10 percent onshore, Bloomberg New Energy Finance estimated. Developers get more electricity output per turbine offshore, where winds blow 40 percent more often than on land, according to the European Wind Energy Association.

Bloomberg News

A European operation European countries including Germany and Britain have most of the world’s operating offshore wind farms. Together they plan a 50-fold increase in installed seabased wind towers in the coming decades. Their lead over developers in the U.S. may be challenged should the 130-turbine project in Nantucket Sound, Mass., open the way for more project approvals.

“Offshore wind power is viable, even in the harsh natural conditions of Germany,” said Vattenfall Europe CEO Tuomo Hatakka.

In Britain, Prime Minister Gordon Brown has lured General Electric, Siemens and Clipper Windpower to erect projects that would generate 47 gigawatts of power, enough to supply all of Britain’s households. One gigawatt lights about 653,000 homes, according to RenewableUK. Germany plans about half as much, and 6.3 gigawatts are on the drawing boards in the U.S. and Canada.

‘Very attractive for investors’ Return on investments for offshore developments are as high as 18 percent, said Martin Billhardt, chief executive officer of PNE Wind. That compares with returns of 9 percent to 12 percent for onshore projects.

“Offshore can be very attractive for investors,” said Billhardt, whose Cuxhaven, Germanybased company is building two deep-water wind farms off the German coast. “The wind availability is really there.”

While turbines anchored to the seabed promise more clean energy as the world weans itself from oil and coal, the offshore plants aren’t without drawbacks.

They can cost twice as much as onshore rivals and require special ships, cables and engineering to allow them to withstand high winds and corrosive salt water.

Floating cranes required to build and service wind farms are scarce, and most work ships now in use are “inappropriate” because they’ve been adapted from the oil

The Associated Press

A ship passes the first German offshore wind power plant in the North Sea last month. industry, said Thomas Karst, a director at Make Consulting. The Danish company advising on investments in wind energy estimates that by 2015 there may be a 20 percent gap between the capacity of vessels and demand for their services.

“There are simply too few vessels, and the ports are inadequate to handle all the heavy equipment,” Karst said. “These are serious supply chain issues.”

Cost considerations Costs to install a turbine at sea are about $5.3 million per megawatt of capacity, said Mortimer Menzel, a partner at the Augusta & Co., a merchant bank. A turbine on land is about $2 million.

Design flaws on some Britishbased turbines may cost operators including Royal Dutch Shell, Centrica and Dong Energy as much as $77 million to fix, RenewableUK said April 14.

“The barriers to entry are still very high,” Ditlev Engel, chief executive of Vestas Wind Systems, the world’s largest maker of wind turbines. “Offshore definitely has a lot of potential, but it’s a small part of the overall market.”

Utilities, because of their “large balance sheets,” have so far developed the most wind parks, said Grzegorz Zielinski of the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development, which provides financing for wind projects in Eastern Europe.

With the new Alpha Ventus farm last week, Vattenfall increased its wind assets to 426 megawatts, closing in on Fredericia, Denmark-based Dong Energy, the world leader with 595 megawatts. RWE’s Innogy unit leads the world in wind parks under development, according to New Energy Finance.

Costs and risks particular to sea-borne structures have led to insufficient lending from banks as financing fails to keep pace with the offshore industry’s expansion, said Marc Schmitz, a vice president at Rabobank Nederland.

“There’s not enough bank debt in the market,” he said. “This is a real issue.”

While the benefits of stronger, more frequent breezes offshore are evident to some investors, the risks imply the need for caution, said Zielinski. “Offshore wind is not for the faint-hearted.”

ATLANTA — Impulse buyers are heading back to convenience stores for sodas and Hershey bars.

PepsiCo and Coca-Cola say the volume declines at convenience stores slowed last quarter for the first time in at least a year. Hershey’s first-quarter chocolate, mint and gum sales in those stores grew about 6 percent.

“We’re definitely seeing improving trends,” said Dennis Phelps, senior director of beverages for 7-Eleven Inc., the world’s largest convenience retailer. “Maybe customers feel a little better about letting go of some money.”

Consumers bought less candy and soda last year at 7-Eleven and other on-the-go stores that typically generate higher profit margins for manufacturers. Dollar sales excluding cigarettes at convenience stores rose 0.5 percent in March after a 1.3 percent decline during the previous 52 weeks, according to Consumer Edge Research.

“We saw a pick-up in consumer discretionary spending, which resulted in improved sales for impulse purchases in convenience stores,” said Bill Pecoriello, chief executive officer of Stamford, Conn.-based Consumer Edge. The research firm analyzes store scanner data from Information Resources Inc. to determine sales.

“Encouraging” volume trends for beverages at convenience stores continued into the second quarter, Eric Foss, head of PepsiCo’s bottling unit, said. CocaCola also saw slight improvement at convenience stores, said Dana Bolden, a spokesman for the Atlanta-based company.

Snacks, too, showed signs of recovery in the first quarter, said John Compton, CEO of Americas Foods for Purchase, N.Y.- based PepsiCo, the world’s biggest snack maker.

“I would characterize it as improving,” he said during the call.

“It has a ways to go as the unemployment numbers need to improve and the overall economy needs to improve.”

The recession, record-high gas prices and increased federal cigarette taxes imposed in March 2009 reduced convenience-store visits, 7-Eleven’s Phelps said. In 2009, soft-drink volume industrywide at convenience stores fell 0.6 percent to 1.74 billion liters, according to Chicago-based researcher Euromonitor International.

That trend may be reversing.

Customer counts at 7- Eleven fell less in the first quarter and may grow in the current quarter, now that the tobacco-tax increase is a year old and gas prices are stable, Phelps said. There are 38,000 7- Eleven stores worldwide. Dallas-based 7-Eleven, a unit of Seven & i Holdings Co., operates or franchises 6,000 in the United States.

Nonalcoholic beverage sales at 7-Eleven stemmed declines in the first quarter, compared with the fourth quarter of last year, Phelps said. He declined to provide dollar sales figures.

“There’s no question about it, we’re seeing better sales,” said

Mike Thornbrugh, a spokesman for Quiktrip Corp., the Tulsa, Oklahoma-based operator of 548 convenience stores. “It’s not as much as we’d like but they’re still spending.”

America finally joins the ‘fiesta’

By Warren Brown

er hot little numbers on their way from Germany, South Korea and Japan. I am saying that, for the first time in 30 years, Ford has become a genuine contender, a potential champion, in the smallcar fights in its home market.

Here’s a quick-list justification of my confidence: • Overall build quality (fit, finish and interior-materials quality) is easily among best in class.

• Overall safety is class-leading.

• Exterior design is distinctive and attractive.

• It’s a driver. Its 1.6-liter inline four-cylinder engine won’t thrill speed freaks. But this car is lots of fun to drive for those of us who want to arrive with a smile on our faces.

Special to The Washington Post

SAN FRANCISCO — Global automobile manufacturers are betting that an America whipped by recession, upset by unpredictable fuel prices and humbled by the costly collapse of things too big to fail is ready, at long last, to accept high-quality, fuel-efficient small cars at prices that redefine “economy.”

It is a multibillion-dollar wager fraught with risks in a U.S. market long worshipful of all things big, and R E V I E W tolerant of things small and efficient only when high fuel prices make their existence necessary.

Global car companies now sense a cultural shift in the American psyche, prompted largely by the environmental and economic problems affecting the rest of the world. Worldwide demand by governments and consumers for more environmentally responsible automobiles is pushing automakers to rethink how they design, develop and manufacture cars in a capital-intensive industry.

Car companies can no longer afford to develop one kind of vehicle for Europe, another for Asia and another for North America.

Through rapid advances in technology and electronic communications, they’ve now made their once-delusional talk of “global cars” and “global platforms” everyday reality.

That development has been accompanied by the collapse of false corporate dichotomies, such as “GM of Europe” and “Ford/ North America.” There is now one GM and one Ford. Chrysler, by comparison, has become a division of one Fiat, based in Italy.

Emerging from those myriad changes is a formula that, global car executives believe, can make small cars both easier to sell and

The Associated Press

The 2011 Ford Fiesta hits U.S. showrooms in June. Long available in Europe, the Fiesta is a “smart and cute” front-wheel-drive subcompact designed for commuting and long highway drives.

2011 Ford Fiesta Base price: $13,320-$17,120, on sale in the U.S. in June Type: Front-engine, frontwheel-drive subcompact sedan or hatchback designed for commuting and long drives Engine: 1.6-liter in-line fourcylinder mated to a five-speed manual transmission (six-speed Ford-trademarked “PowerShift” transmission optional) Mileage: 29 mpg city, 40 mpg highway more profitable in America. Witness, for example, this week’s subject automobile — the 2011 Ford Fiesta.

Born in 1976 in response to growing European demand for small cars, prompted by fear of fuel shortages and rising fuel taxes, the Fiesta made its way to North America in 1978, where one of those forces — fuel shortages — was at play. The Fiesta

arrived here a weak, meek little thing and left in 1980 pretty much the same way it came.

But it continued on sale in Europe and many other parts of the world, where consumers rebelled against the notion that “small” should mean weak and meek.

They demanded safety, style, road performance and more technology. Moreover, in economies where consumers also were expected to carry some of the costs of cleaner, more efficient automobiles, people demonstrated a willingness to pay for all those things in a small car. Ford, GM and their many European and Asian rivals gave the people what they wanted.

For the longest time, however, most car companies refused to do the same thing in the United States. They feared it would be a waste of time, effort and money to try to sell premium small cars in a country awash in cheap gasoline and largely desirous of big wheels and houses.

Germany’s BMW thought otherwise and introduced its stillhot-selling Mini Cooper in the United States in 2000. Global automobile executives took note.

Among them were Ford officials, who reasoned that if they could sell millions of Fiesta cars overseas (an estimated 12 million have been sold since the firstgeneration Fiesta in 1976), they might now find success for the reinvigorated sixth-generation Fiesta in the USA. After driving all versions of the new Fiesta, which rolls into U.S. showrooms in June, I think they’re right ... for the simplest of reasons: They have given to the new Fiesta the same attention normally given to their premium large cars and trucks. The result is a little front-wheel-drive car, offered in four basic trim levels, that kicks tailpipe and takes names.

Mine is not irrational exuberance. I am not saying that this new Fiesta will somehow roll over the Mini Cooper or best oth-

The bottom line This one is a winner. It easily takes on competitors such as the Honda Fit, Nissan Versa, and Toyota Yaris and Corolla.

It’s not quite a Mazda3, and it is nobody’s Mini. But here’s betting that Fiesta buyers, particularly those who take the top SEL and SES models, won’t suffer in the least from Mini envy.

Ride, acceleration and handling: It gets very good small-car marks in all three.

Head-turning quotient: Smart and cute, in both the four-door sedan and the five-door hatchback. Credit Ford’s stylists for the use of triple-layered metallic paint jobs in eye-popping colors such as Yellow Blaze, Lime Squeeze and Blue Flame. Also, kudos to the design team for a control panel that perfectly mimics the world’s best cell phones in appearance and function.

Capacities: The Fiesta has seats for five people, with tight space for three in the rear. Maximum cargo space is 26 cubic feet.

Fuel capacity is 12 gallons of recommended regular gasoline.

‘Spongy’ brake may have air in hydraulics

By Paul Brand (Minneapolis) Star Tribune

Q:

I have a 2007 Honda Odyssey. When I’m stopped and push my brakes as hard as I c an, the pedal nearly touches the floor. It’s a soft and spongy pedal, as if air is in the hydraulic system. The car stops adequately without having to depress the pedal really hard.

Two dealers said the vehicle is operating properly. I don’t believe them. Should I? I suspect air in the hydraulic system. My Alldata automotive database pulled up Honda service bulletin 07-045, dated March 2009, that addresses this symptom of a soft or low pedal. The likely cause is air leaking into the system from the ABS/traction control modulator control unit.

The brake system should be bled manually to see if the pedal height returns to normal. If it does, the control unit should be replaced. If the vehicle is out of warranty, the bulletin indicates the repair may be eligible for “goodwill consideration.”
