Details emerge, but ‘why’ still elusive in homeless man’s death by train By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin
Mark Dorsey had lived in the area for two years.
REDMOND — When Mark Dorsey died, was he walking to grab a beer? Or did the homeless man commit suicide by jumping in front of a train that was passing through Redmond? A Redmond Police report was inconclusive on the April 1 incident in which Dorsey died. A train struck him about 300
yards south of Evergreen Avenue in Redmond. Accidents like Dorsey’s are rare in Oregon, with fewer than 10 people dying when walking on tracks away from a crossing. The Sunday before Dorsey died, he spoke with his mother,
Andrea Dorsey, for the first time in about two years. “People in Redmond, they probably say, ‘Oh, did you hear a bum got hit by a train?’” she said. “He may be a bum, but he’s a brother, he’s a father. He was a person.” See Death / A5
An unknown person has built a memorial for Mark Dorsey, who was struck and killed by a train in Redmond in April. Dorsey’s nickname, “Truble,” is etched in the cross.

A bad spot to crash
Licensees’ options are unclear; one lawmaker says the OLCC should review each of his cases By Cindy Powers The Bulletin
A local legislator has told the Oregon Liquor Control Commission it should review every case investigated by an enforcement agent now accused of stealing the identity of a murdered child. Jason Evers, once the Bend-based regional manager for the OLCC, was arrested in Idaho last week and has been charged in federal court with providing false information on a passport application. It is unclear what options are available to licensees investigated or sanctioned by Evers, and OLCC officials have yet to say how the agency plans to handle those cases going forward. But lawyers who represent those licensees say the case against him raises questions about whether all of the information Evers provided to the agency during his eight years there can be trusted. State Rep. Judy Stiegler, D-Bend, said she had a frank conversation with the OLCC executive director shortly after Evers’ arrest about the agency’s next step. “I did go so far as to say to Steve Pharo that I am hoping there will be, internally, a review of the cases Mr. Evers handled to see if there is anything problematic,” Stiegler said. Pharo could not be reached for comment Thursday and will not be back in the office until May 17, said OLCC spokeswoman Christie Scott. She also said questions about whether the agency will review the cases Evers investigated were premature. “I think the answer at this point is that it’s too early to tell right now,” Scott said. “(The charges are) allegations, and we’re waiting to see the court proceedings continue. We’ll do what is appropriate based on that.” See Evers / A5

“It’s like I’m a doctor,” says Joseph Laubinger, seen here photographing a water termination notice at a foreclosed home in Lake Villa, Ill. “People ask me how much time they have left.”
LAKE VILLA, Ill. — If you see Joseph Laubinger on your doorstep, start packing. His courtly presence means you have exhausted all excuses, arguments and options for keeping your house. “It’s like I’m a doctor,” said Laubinger, an agent here for big lenders. “People ask me how much time they have left.” Hardly any. Legally, they have already lost ownership. If they do not respond to the carrot the lenders offer — as much as $5,000 in cash in exchange for leaving the house in good order — he employs the stick: the county sheriff, who evicts them.
Laubinger is having a busy spring. Nearly 4 million households nationwide are severely delinquent on their mortgages, the biggest backlog since the housing crisis began. As more and more of the homes edge toward repossession — a record quarter of a million were seized by lenders in the first three months of this year — agents like Laubinger are trying to coax people out. Sometimes, the process is briskly efficient. The occupants have either abandoned the home or are methodically planning their departure well before Laubinger arrives bearing an incentive officially known as relocation assistance, but always called cash for keys.

BELLE CHASSE, La. — Before the explosion, the oil spill, the declarations of “environmental crisis” or the emergency visit by President Barack Obama, 126 oil riggers were passing another quiet night. The skies were clear and the seas calm on April 20. Boredom and loneliness were the Inside main concerns. • Giant Matt Hughes lifted weights containment in the gym before his midnight box deployed, shift. Kevin Eugene lay down Page A4 on his queen-sized bed and turned on ESPN, thinking television might make him feel closer to land. Other men watched action movies in the theater or played poker.

WASHINGTON — We have met Neanderthal and he is us — at least a little. The most detailed look yet at the Neanderthal genome helps answer one of the most debated questions in anthropology: Did Neanderthals and modern humans mate? The answer is yes, there is at least some cave man biology in most of us. Between 1 and 4 percent of genes in people from Europe and Asia trace back to Neanderthals. “They live on, a little bit,” says Svante Paabo of the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany. Researchers led by Paabo, Richard E. Green of the University of California, Santa Cruz, and David Reich of Harvard Medical School compared the genetic material collected from the bones of three Neanderthals with that from five modern humans.
‘A faint echo’ Their findings, reported in today’s edition of the journal Science, show a relationship between Neanderthals and modern people outside Africa, Paabo said. It suggests that interbreeding occurred in the Middle East, where both modern humans and Neanderthals lived thousands of years ago, he said. “People are interested in the question: ‘By what route did I get here?’ And the idea that there is a faint echo of Neanderthals” is interesting, reflected Richard Potts, director of the Human Origins Program at the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History. “I’m really impressed by the nuance they’ve been able to pick up,” said Potts, who was not part of the research group. “The papers are a really good antidote to the all-or-nothing findings of previous studies.” Humans trace their origins out of Africa into the Middle East and then on to other parts of the world. The genetic relationship with Neanderthals was found in people from Europe, China and Papua-New Guinea, but not people from Africa. Todd Disotell, an anthropologist at New York University, suggested that more Africans should be sampled. “My guess is, as we sample more Africans, we’re going to find some of these old lineages in Africa,” said Disotell, who was not part of the research team. He noted that the researchers looked at the genomes of a west African and a south African, but not someone from northeast Africa, where he said the mixture would be more likely to have occurred.

Mark Hoffman walks on the 82-foot radio telescope dish that he maintains by an apple orchard near Brewster in eastern Washington. The telescope is one of an array of 10 that can look at faraway galaxies to regions where planets are being formed.
Keeping an eye on the universe, from a Washington apple orchard By Erik Lacitis
The radio telescope dish weighs 240 tons and listens to radio waves in outer space. It’s part of a system that has the ability to see galactic details equivalent to standing in New York City and reading a newspaper in Los Angeles.
The Seattle Times
BREWSTER, Wash. — Out here by an apple orchard just off Highway 97 is one of the Hubble Space Telescope’s ignored cousins, an 82-foot dish painted all white that weighs in at 240 tons. Yet it is part of a telescope system that produces images that are hundreds of times more detailed than what the Hubble can do. On its 20th birthday, the Hubble is being honored for the breathtaking cosmic images it has produced. Meanwhile, the ignored cousins — 10 in all, spread from the Caribbean to Brewster to Hawaii, placed in locations away from big-city pollution and united by computers — are struggling for financing. Ever heard of the VLBA? Probably not, unless you’re an astronomy professor or hobbyist. It stands for Very Long Baseline Array, the kind of name a committee of scientists would think is very catchy. But this system is so good that it has the ability to see fine detail equivalent to standing in New York City and reading a newspaper in Los Angeles. It peers through clouds and dust into other galaxies, into regions where planets are being formed. It has produced images that go to the very beginnings of the universe,
and helped discover a black hole in the center of the Milky Way. Some tourists stop by the dish asking if it has anything to do, you know, with the CIA, or maybe listening for extraterrestrials, like in that 1997 Jodie Foster movie, “Contact.” No, it doesn’t, but a visit still is an astounding experience. If you pull up on Monse River Road to the small, windowless, one-story, 45-by-25-foot building where two technicians run the dish, they usually don’t mind showing you around. There are no windows in the building for the same reason it’s wrapped with a copper mesh in its walls — to block outside radio interference that could con-
taminate the data collected by the dish. The small kitchen area has no microwave because it also might pollute the data. In the winter, sometimes a crucial part on the outside of the dish ices up, and it can stop moving. “It gets boring at times,” says Mark Hoffman, 55, one of the technicians. Their boss is at the National Radio Astronomy Observatory, in Socorro, N.M. The “radio” part in the observatory’s name explains why the work of the VLBA hasn’t caught the public’s imagination, says Professor Bruce Balick of the University of Washington’s Department of Astronomy. The radio telescope images
BEAUTIFULLY APPOINTED, CLEAN HOME ON PRIVATE CUL-DE-SAC
make visual what humans can’t see — using a bright red, for example, to show a high-intensity radio emission. The radio telescopes can do something that an optical telescope can’t do — penetrate the clouds and dust at the core of galaxies and regions when new stars and planets are being formed. “But people don’t relate to a radio picture the way they do to an optical image,” Balick says. “It all seems abstract. There are no foreground stars, no galaxies roaming about in the background. You just have these color blobs, and you can’t quite tell what the image is trying to tell you.” So the astronomers do their best to explain in layman’s terms why the radio telescopes are important. About as simply as some of the work can be explained is that the VLBA has been used to study the mysterious “Dark Energy” that pervades the universe, or to study a black hole more than 6 billion times more massive than the sun. For visitors who drop by, Hoffman is a congenial guide, the more outgoing of the two technicians, although he does admit about the research done by the dish, “C384G, the name of some star, somewhere. It doesn’t mean that much to me.”

More study And Paabo agreed that his finding does not mean that only people from outside Africa have some cave man biology. With more study it might also be found in some Africans. Indeed, Laura Zahn, associate editor of life sciences at the journal Science, said she anticipates the report will provide material for geneticists and anthropologists to quarrel over for years. Reich noted that while there was a flow of genes from Neanderthals to modern humans, there is no indication of gene movement the other way, from humans to Neanderthals. The closest extinct relative to modern people, Neanderthals existed from about 400,000 years ago to about 30,000 years ago. They coexisted with modern humans for 30,000 to 50,000 years in Europe and western Asia. While many people think of Neanderthals as very primitive, they had tools for things like hunting and sewing, controlled fire, lived in shelters and buried their dead.

T S TIMES SQUARE BOMBING ATTEMPT
U.S. cancer panel: Expanded alliances Ignored chemicals for Pakistani Taliban a ‘grievous’ threat By Carlotta Gall and Sabrina Tavernise
New York Times News Service
By Lyndsey Layton The Washington Post
WASHINGTON — An expert panel that advises the president on cancer said Thursday that Americans are facing “grievous harm” from chemicals in the air, food and water that have largely gone unregulated and ignored. The President’s Cancer Panel called for a new national strategy that focuses on such threats in the environment and workplace. It called those dangers “underestimated.” “With the growing body of evidence linking environmental exposures to cancer, the public is becoming increasingly aware of the unacceptable burden of cancer resulting from environmental and occupational exposures that could have been prevented through appropriate national action,” the panel wrote in a report released Thursday. Currently, federal chemical laws are weak, funding is inadequate and regulatory responsibilities are split among too many agencies, the panel found. Children are particularly vulnerable because of their smaller bodies and fast physical development, the panel found. The report noted rising rates of cancer in children, and it referred to recent studies that have found industrial chemicals in umbilical-cord blood, which supplies nutrients to developing fetuses. “To a disturbing extent, babies are born ‘pre-polluted,’” the panel wrote, adding that health officials lack critical knowledge about the chemicals’ impact on fetuses and children. In addition, the government’s standards for safe chemical exposure in the workplace are
outdated, it said. In 2009, about 1.5 million American men, women and children had cancer diagnosed, and 562,000 people died from the disease. The panel found that the country needs to overhaul existing chemical laws, a conclusion that has been supported by public health groups, environmental advocates, the chemical industry and the Obama administration. The current system places the burden on the government to prove beyond a doubt that a chemical is unsafe before it can be removed from the market. The standards are so high that the government has been unable to ban chemicals such as asbestos, a widely recognized carcinogen prohibited in dozens of countries. About 80,000 chemicals are in commercial use in the United States, but federal regulators have assessed only about 200 for safety. A bill filed last month by Sen. Frank Lautenberg, D-N.J., the Safe Chemicals Act of 2010, would shift the burden to manufacturers to prove the safety of new chemicals before they can be used. It would also require companies to give safety data for chemicals already on the market to federal regulators. The cancer panel called that bill a good starting point. Still, it said, the government must look beyond individual chemicals to the cumulative effect on humans from exposure to multiple chemicals, and must consider how small amounts of a chemical can cause subtle changes in the human body that can result in cancer years later.
ISLAMABAD — The Pakistan Taliban, which American investigators suspect was behind the attempt to bomb Times Square, has in recent years combined forces with al-Qaida and other groups, threatening to extend its reach and ambitions, Western diplomats, intelligence officials and experts say. Since the group’s formation in 2007, the main mission of the Pakistani Taliban has been to maintain its hold on territory in Pakistan’s tribal areas to train fighters for jihad against American and NATO forces in Afghanistan and, increasingly, to strike at the Pakistani state as the military pushes into these havens.
Pakistan’s military offensives and intensifying American drone strikes have degraded its capabilities. But the Pakistan Taliban has sustained itself through alliances with any number of other militant groups, splinter cells, foot soldiers and guns for hire in the areas under its control. Those groups have “morphed,” a Western diplomat said in a recent interview. Their common agenda, training and resource sharing have made it increasingly difficult to distinguish one from another. The alliances have also added to their skills and tactics and list of shared targets. “They trade bomb makers and people around,” a senior U.S. intelligence official said Thursday in an interview. “It’s becoming this witches’ brew.”
The senior intelligence official said that in recent years the overall ability and lethality of these groups had dropped, but that the threat to countries like the United States had increased somewhat because the groups cooperated against a range of targets. Not least among the groups is al-Qaida, which is exerting growing influence over the others. The Pakistani Taliban increasingly serves as its fig leaf, some experts said. “The Taliban is the local partner of al-Qaida in Pakistan,” said Amir Rana, the director of the Pakistan Institute for Peace Studies, who has tracked militant networks for years. “It has no capacity for an international agenda on its own.”

Reports fault FDA’s food safeguards
WASHINGTON — The nation’s largest Hispanic civil rights group announced Thursday that it has organized a boycott of Arizona in the wake of the state’s new law targeting illegal immigrants. The National Council of La Raza, along with 19 other labor and civil rights groups, will pull money and meetings out of the state and is asking all companies and organizations to move major events and conferences planned there to other venues. Specifically, La Raza wants Major League Baseball to renege on its promise to hold the 2011 All-Star Game in Phoenix. “No conferences. No travel,” said Janet Murguía, president of La Raza. “We are looking at major events with big visibility, and we’re asking all people to consider whether any purchase of goods from the state would further this unjust law.”
WASHINGTON — More than 56 percent of domestic food manufacturers have gone five or more years without a federal inspection, and regulators can inspect only a small fraction of the foreign companies that ship food to the U.S. Those are among the findings of two watchdog reports presented to lawmakers Thursday. The reports describe a Food and Drug Administration that lacks the resources and authority to police the food supply despite major food-contamination scares over the past three years. A salmonella outbreak traced to a peanut processor in Texas and Georgia was linked to nine deaths and 714 illnesses in late 2008 and early 2009. Lawmakers have boosted the FDA’s budget in recent years, but legislation to give it power to recall foods and demand records from companies has not passed the Senate.
Police say bus bomb scare not terrorism PORTSMOUTH, N.H. — A nine-hour bomb scare aboard a Maine-to-New York Greyhound bus ended peacefully Thursday night when the lone remaining passenger walked off it with his hands over his head. The other 16 passengers and the driver had left the bus safely hours earlier. Portsmouth Police Chief David Ferland said the man was being questioned, and the incident was not terrorism-related. “We do not believe this to be a terrorist event,” Ferland said at a late-night news conference during which he refused to answer questions. “We are considering this to be a localized event only.” No details about the passenger were immediately released, and the bus remained parked in downtown Portsmouth being examined by the FBI and a bomb squad. The man could be a foreign national, as agents from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement were on the scene, and there were reports an interpreter was needed to speak to him.
Hutaree militia members kept in jail DETROIT — Nine members of an anti-government militia group walked into U.S. District Court in Detroit on Thursday expecting to shed their foot shackles, but instead they headed back to jail after a last-minute filing by the U.S. Attorney’s Office. By 4:30 p.m. EDT, defense lawyers for the Hutaree Christian militia group had filed their own motion, urging the U.S. 6th Circuit Court of Appeals in Cincinnati to uphold a judge’s decision to free the group on bond as they await trial. The defense lawyers said U.S. District Judge Victoria Roberts in Detroit had thoroughly reviewed the evidence against the members and concluded they were neither a danger to the community nor a flight risk, and could be freed with more than two dozen bond restrictions, including house arrest, electronic monitoring and curfews. — From wire reports
Proposed legislation that would allow the government to revoke American citizenship from people suspected of allying themselves with terrorists set off a legal and political debate Thursday that scrambled some of the usual partisan lines on civil-liberties issues. The “Terrorist Expatriation Act,” co-sponsored by Sens. Joseph Lieberman, I-Conn., and Scott Brown, R-Mass., would allow the State Department to revoke the citizenship of people who provide support to terrorist groups like al-Qaida or who attack the United States or its allies. Some Democrats expressed openness to the idea, while several Senate Republicans expressed concern. — New York Times News Service

N B Hispanic group says it will boycott Arizona
Bill would target U.S. citizenship of terror allies
Counting for Thursday’s General Election gets under way early today in Northern Ireland. Britain’s two main parties locked horns in a political standoff today after an inconclusive election — with Labour’s Gordon Brown signaling he would try to form a coalition and Conservative leader David Cameron declaring the prime minister had lost his mandate to govern. Cameron — whose Conservatives strongly
outpolled Labour but were projected to fall short of winning a majority of seats in Parliament — claimed that voters had rejected Labour in Britain’s election Thursday. “Our country wants change.

Twenty-three Russian sailors were freed. The dramatic Indian Ocean rescue came a day after pirates seized the tanker, which was heading toward China carrying $50 million worth of crude. One pirate was killed and 10 others were arrested, officials said. The Russian destroyer Marshal Shaposhnikov had rushed to the scene following Wednesday’s seizure of the Liberian-flagged tanker, Moscow University. After spotting the hijacked vessel early Thursday, the war-
ship fired warning shots from its large-caliber machine gun, undeterred by the tanker’s flammable cargo of 86,000 tons of crude. Oil tankers don’t even allow crew members to smoke on board because of the risk of igniting the cargo, but the Russian navy decided to move in with weapons after determining the crew had taken refuge in a safe room.

MUMBAI, India — The lone surviving gunman from a 2008 terrorist attack on Mumbai that killed more than 160 people was sentenced Thursday to death by hanging. A judge ruled that the crimes of Ajmal Kasab, the convicted Pakistani man who was one of 10 attackers, were so reprehensible that “the court has no option except going with the death penalty.” Kasab, 22, who looked ill and spent most of the hearing with his head lowered, covering his face, cried a little but did not say anything after the sentence was read. The terrorists, who arrived in Mumbai by boat on Nov. 26, 2008, spent three days attacking a train station, two hotels, a Jewish center and a popular bar. Kasab and one accomplice were responsible for about 60 deaths, most of them at the city’s busiest train station, where pictures and video showed him shooting indiscriminately at passengers in a waiting area.

Spill Continued from A1 Wyman Wheeler, a 39-year-old oilman, was busy packing. He was 20 days into a 21-day hitch, scheduled to fly back to Houma, La., by helicopter at 6 a.m. and then drive four hours to his home in Mississippi. Like most of the men, he worked on the rig for 21 days at a time, enduring 12-hour shifts, seven days a week, so he could spend the next 21 days at home. He called his wife, Rebecca, and spoke to their two young children. “One more night,” he said. Then he promised them a vacation to Texas later that week.
What happened? Wheeler hung up the phone, changed into his coveralls and walked out of his room. He had been working offshore for 16 years, and still the last night of a hitch left him too excited to sleep. He walked down the hall toward the tool room, then stopped. The hall reeked of gasoline. The lights flickered. Popping sounds echoed from overhead. All of a sudden, the door to the tool room seemed to be breathing, as though someone was pushing on it from the other side. What happened next would be the last thing Wheeler remembered: The door blew off its hinges and barreled toward him, even before he heard an explosion. In the weeks that followed, dozens of scientists would analyze the evidence and debate the damage. They would conclude that a gigantic blast of gas, oil and mud had roared up from the drilling zone three miles below, bursting through the floor of the Deepwater Horizon and sparking a historic fire. Coast Guard rescuers who survived Hurricane Katrina would call it an extraordinary disaster. Experts would fly in and determine that oil was leaking into the Gulf at the rate of 210,000 gallons per day, threatening wildlife, fisheries and coastline across the southeastern United States. It would be two weeks before many of the men at the epicenter of the disaster felt ready to talk about it. And when they did, they
Housing Continued from A1 But the end game of foreclosure is typically neither smooth nor quick. Some people have nowhere to go, and others see no reason to go. The lenders need someone on the scene who can resolve the situation without escalating it, which is why Laubinger is getting an abundance of assignments from the country’s largest lenders as well as Fannie Mae, the government’s mortgage holding company. The agent’s garage is stacked with desks and chairs, bought recently at a county government auction. “I’m expanding,” he said, with immediate plans to hire two more agents to join his fourperson shop. He makes at most a small fee for getting the people out; his reward comes with the commission in selling the house.
A sympathetic ear Laubinger is 60, a one-time graphic artist who has been buying and selling real estate for himself and others for a quartercentury. When times were good, he spent as fast as he could. “I spun my wheels like a madman,” he said. His territory is the northern edge of Illinois and the southernmost slice of Wisconsin — a 600-square-mile expanse that encompasses middle-class suburbs built in the last 10 years, resort homes that dot the region’s many lakes and decaying cottages bought by hard-scrabble immigrants. People in all those places are hurting, which is good for Laubinger’s bottom line. Yet he shudders if anyone calls him a “repo man,” and is actually a soft touch. He is quick to grant extensions to the people who ask, even though this pushes the sale of the property, and his payday, further into the future. In the debate over whether the foreclosed are deadbeats or victims, co-conspirators with the avaricious banks or merely collateral damage, the agent nearly always takes the benign view. The most critical thing he will say is, “Everyone got greedy, and now everyone is passing the buck.” On a recent Saturday, he had three houses to check up on, two in foreclosure and one trembling on the verge. Fannie Mae was sending him to examine one of the properties, where the owners had lost ownership in December but declined to decamp. A bank

More than 100 men had crowded against a railing near the lifeboats — the only solid ground. Smoke billowed above. Flames grew nearby. The dark ocean waited 80 feet below. Explosions shook the rig every few minutes, spilling men and equipment across the deck.
Giant box lowered to try to contain gushing oil ON THE GULF OF MEXICO — Workers eased a giant concrete-and-steel box into the Gulf of Mexico late Thursday, starting the long process of lowering the contraption over the blown-out oil well at the bottom of the sea in an untested bid to capture most of the gushing crude and avert a wider environmental disaster. The 100-ton containment vessel is designed to collect as much as 85 percent of the oil spewing into the Gulf and funnel it up to a tanker. It could take several hours to lower it into place, after which a steel pipe will be installed between the top of the box and the tanker. The whole structure could be operating by Sunday. “We haven’t done this before,” said BP spokesman David Nicholas. “It’s very complex, and we can’t guarantee it.” The mission took on added urgency as oil started washing up on delicate barrier islands. Dangerous fumes rising from the oily water on a windless night had delayed the lowering of the box for hours. The fear was that a spark caused by the scrape of metal on metal could cause a fire. But a crane lifted it from the deck of the supply boat Joe Griffin and into the Gulf after 10 p.m. CDT, with dark oil clinging to its white sides as it entered the water and disappeared below the surface.

A supply boat arrives Thursday at the site of an April oil rig explosion, carrying the structure that will be used to try to contain the oil. The technology has been used a few times in shallow waters, but never at such extreme depths — 5,000 feet down, where the water pressure is enough to crush a submarine. The box — which looks a lot like a peaked, 40-foot-high outhouse, especially on the inside, with its rough timber framing — must be accurately positioned over the well, or it could damage the leaking pipe and make the problem worse. BP spokesman Doug Suttles said he is not concerned about that happening. Underwater robots have been clearing pieces of pipe and other debris near where the box will be placed to avoid complications. “We do not believe it could make things worse,” he said. — The Associated Press
would describe the first moments simply in the terms of sensory terror: two deafening thuds, followed by chaos and confusion. Eugene, who had been drifting to sleep to ESPN, rushed out of bed in underwear and a T-shirt. He was a cook working for a catering company, not an oilman, and strange noises had always made him nervous. He reached into a closet for his life vest and hard hat — a habit instilled by
the rig’s weekly fire drills — and ran out the door without socks or shoes. A shrill alarm rang over the loudspeakers, followed by an announcement for the 126 men to make their way to Lifeboats 1 and 2, the sole ones that remained intact after the initial explosion. Only when Eugene ran upstairs did the extent of the disaster become clear. The deck, once as large as two football fields, now measured three-quarters of its
wanted him to snap photos of a second site, a high-end house whose defaulting owners were seeking a modification. The occupants of the third house, Israel Lopez and Blanca Sanchez, had finally agreed to move out after months of negotiating. Laubinger had a check for $1,800 waiting for them. Expecting a bustle of activity, the agent found the place quiet. Clearly, no one was going anywhere. Only a young boy was home. Laubinger left a message for the parents. “They basically blew me off,” he said as he drove away. It’s a common problem: “People are staying longer because they’re not afraid.” The house he was hired to photograph was in an upscale community, but the owners, who were either not home or not answering the door, were clearly suffering. The driveway was pocked with holes and the lawn full of weeds, a sharp contrast to the well-manicured neighbors. Perhaps a modification would save them, but as Laubinger took his pictures, he said he had a bad feeling. “I’ll be coming back here, taking this to the next level,” he predicted. His phone rang. It was Sanchez. “We haven’t found anywhere to go,” she said. “We were wondering if any more extensions could be given.” Laubinger was noncommittal but said she would not be evicted that weekend. That was all Sanchez wanted to hear. “They’re doing the math,” he said. “More time is better than the $1,800 I was going to give them to leave.” If he has to order a formal eviction with the sheriff, the paperwork and processing might take all summer.
disease, a chronic inflammation of the intestines. Forced to choose between the mortgage and medicine, he said they had chosen the drugs. But he agreed to move out for $1,500 and provided a new cell phone number. Back in his car, Laubinger stifled a sob. “That one hurts,” he said. “There’s an honest man, doing everything he can.” Night fell as Laubinger pulled back into his own driveway here, about 90 minutes’ drive northwest of Chicago. He was not sure he had accomplished much. But a few days later, to his surprise, the Lopez-Sanchez family agreed to leave after all.
‘That one hurts’ The last house he visited that day was the one owned by Fannie Mae. Bajrak and Beata Lukasz, a Polish couple in their mid-30s, bought it for $190,000 in 2003 and then took $50,000 in cash out through refinancing and a home equity loan. That swelled their debt and made the house impossible to sell after the crash. On Dec. 12, when Laubinger first visited, the couple had been in default for eight months but said they were getting a modification. Since then, Lukasz had not returned messages left on his cell phone. So after five months, Fannie Mae sent Laubinger again. Lukasz finally emerged, saying his wife was ill with Crohn’s
“We’re waiting to get everyone here before we go!” a supervisor yelled to Eugene and the other men who were waiting near the lifeboats. Three minutes went by. Five. Seven. “This whole thing is going to explode,” Eugene said, terrified. He looked down to the ocean, his eyes measuring the 80 feet. The lifeboats were supposed to be lowered to the water by automatic pulleys. He wondered whether the pulleys remained intact. He wondered whether the next explosion would be his last. Nearby, Matt Hughes gripped the railing to help steady his balance. The 26-year-old from Malvern, Ark., was still in his weightlifting clothes, with a life preserver now covering his T-shirt. He watched his co-workers idling by the lifeboats and thought: We are going to die waiting. The flames acted like a torch to light up the ocean. Hughes looked down at the water. The seas were calm. “Screw it,” he thought. He would jump. He had always been a good swimmer, and now he put a wad of Copenhagen chewing tobacco in his mouth to steel his nerve. As he climbed up the railing, he slipped and cut his foot. He reached the top and looked down one more time, still hanging on. Clear the rig and land feet first, he thought. He held his breath and let go. Captain Alwin Landry looked across the ocean at the flaming rig and saw a sudden flash of reflective gear dropping from the sky. He followed the shape to its splash in the water, wondering what it was, and saw a person bobbing in the sea. Soon there were more jumpers — three, four, five, all
might be in their house for many months. “This crisis,” he said, “will serve me the rest of my career.”
waving their arms for rescue. Landry, 41, had been servicing the rig on a typical “grocery run,” using his ship, the Damon B. Bankston, to deliver supplies and special drilling mud. He had been about to begin the long journey back to shore when, at 9:53 p.m., he heard an explosion and then saw a blinding green light. Suddenly Landry was rushing to fish men out of the water, remembering an old bit of advice from his father, a volunteer fireman: Be calm and give concise directions. But his father had never seen fire like this. At the same time, an emergency call was sent to a private air-ambulance service and two Coast Guard stations. “This is the real deal,” the flight dispatcher told Raymond Mouton, 42, a flight paramedic at Acadian air med. Mouton and his colleagues stuffed the helicopters with blankets, bandages, backboards and collars to immobilize broken necks. Acadian’s helicopter, painted with a fleur-de-lis flag, took off from Houma, at the edge of south Louisiana’s vast marshes. Four other helicopters and one airplane flew over the gulf toward the wreck, pushing top speed.

The rescuers flew in darkness, over uninhabited swamps. Forty miles away from the rig, they saw an orange glow flickering on the water that looked, to one rescuer, like a distant city skyline. Soon it was clearly a fire. Then, five miles out, it was an awe-inspiring blaze with flames burning 300 feet into the air and spreading across the water. One mile from the wreck, Coast Guard Lt. Andy Greenwood put his hand against his window. It was hot. Before the choppers arrived, the survivors started to make their way to Landry’s supply ship, which was nearly as long as a football field. Hughes, the jumper, swam almost a quarter of a mile to the boat, arriving with a bruised chest, numb toes and tobacco still tucked securely behind his lip. Eugene, the cook, arrived in one of the lifeboats, which had finally descended to the water almost 20 minutes after the initial explosion. Wheeler, who had been hit by the flying door, also arrived in the boat. He had been carried to safety by two other oilmen who had found him unconscious and with a broken leg, dislocated shoulder and burns on the back of his tattered coveralls.

Emptying a house When the agent showed up at the appointed time with the check and a locksmith to rekey the doors, the couple was still carrying things out to their battered Ford Windstar: a bigscreen TV, a huge teddy bear, a steaming pot of beef stew for the evening meal. Lopez, 31, said he had lost his job early last year after the construction company he worked for went bankrupt. “I had been paying the mortgage every month, but I told my wife, ‘No more sense in that,’” he said. The family’s fortunes may be on the mend. Lopez was hopeful that he would soon be starting work on a highway crew. Until the family can get back on its feet, their church agreed to give shelter to the couple and their four children. Finally, the house was empty. Lopez signed the documents and then pocketed the check without looking at it. Sanchez sniffled quietly. It was not emotion, she said, but allergies. The couple drove off in the overloaded Windstar without a backward look. Laubinger surveyed the house. It needed paint, new carpet, repairs. He hoped to have it listed in a few weeks for $110,000. If too many foreclosed properties hit the market at once, the housing market may take another dive. The agent said that was a necessary risk. “We have to get through this,” he said. Easier said than done, perhaps. The Lukaszes have consulted a lawyer and intend to stay put as long as possible. “The banks got so much from us, including a large down payment, I think it’s fair we’re not paying,” said Lukasz, who works the night shift in an envelope factory. “We’ll stay here until an hour before the sheriff.” Laubinger will keep working on them, but he knows that they

Continued from A1 Dorsey, 31, who suffered from schizophrenia, arrived in Central Oregon from New Mexico two years ago and had been homeless since. After living around Bend for a short while, he ended up camping on Bureau of Land Management land east of the city. He often drank too much and was off his medication for at least a year, according to Becki McKinney, who works at a local church and helped Dorsey find services and supplies. Sometimes, he fought with homeless men camping near him, McKinney said. But, sober, he seemed to be a gentle man grasping for things that made him feel rooted and happy. Dorsey often called his sister, but when he spoke to his mother the two sometimes fell into an argument. But no one fought during the last call. Dorsey spoke about his life in Oregon, and his mother described her new apartment. He worried that she wasn’t safe living alone. Less than a week later, Andrea Dorsey got a call from her daughter with news of the accident. Andrea Dorsey said her son had long struggled to fit in. In Los Alamos, where Dorsey attended high school, sports and science are valued, she said. “You’re either a geek or a jock,” Andrea Dorsey said. “Mark was neither one. ... He got in with the wrong crowd.” Mark Dorsey, despite his mother’s protest, married at 17 and has three children. One of the children is from another relationship. More than once, Dorsey was arrested for drunken driving, and he sometimes ran away from home, Andrea Dorsey said. In what she now believes were early indications of his schizophrenia, Dorsey suffered frequent mood swings. But he was also a warm, loving son who was always ready with a joke. Dorsey could turn tragedy into humor. Dorsey lost the tip of his ring finger in a shooting accident, according to his mother. Later, Dorsey worked in restaurants and when new employees showed up, he liked to act as if he’d cut off the tip of his finger. “Mark would chop onions and shout, ‘Ahh.’ He’d hold up his hand,’” Andrea Dorsey said, laughing. But Dorsey also took his work seriously, his mother said. “He was a very good prep chef,” she said. In Redmond, the railroad runs parallel to the U.S. Highway 97 reroute. The two are usually separated by a shallow gully, and the area where Dorsey died is near the most industrial section of the city. But also in that area is what Dorsey knew as the “drinking tree.” He often sat with friends on a bench drinking beers under the tree. Look one way and you can see the Cascades; look another, and it’s factories, abandoned cars and a porta-potty storage area that fill your view. In the time since the accident, someone built a memorial for Dorsey between the tree and the tracks. About 3 feet tall, it’s a cross built from pine wood, with “Truble,” Dorsey’s nickname, etched into it. A leather, beaded necklace dangles from it. A bottle and a can of malt liquor litters its rocky base.
Train fatalities In 2009, eight trespassers, which Dorsey was, died in rail accidents in Oregon, according to the Federal Railroad Administration. Those numbers do not include confirmed suicides. Some railroads have built fences through busy areas, but those are usually cut through or destroyed within days of being put up, according to Claudia Howells, the Oregon coordinator for Operation Lifesaver, a national program that promotes rail safety. Howells said she believes that most pedestrian deaths on rail lines are accidents rather than suicides. Pedestrians often misjudge a train’s speed, perceiving it as a big, lumbering thing, even if the train is moving faster than 50 mph, Howells said.
Mark Dorsey, a homeless man, was killed by a train in Redmond more than a month ago. 126

She compared that false impression to how a plane looks in the air. The plane, Howells said, appears slow but can be traveling at several hundred miles per hour. “People think, ‘How could you be that dumb,’” Howells said of rail accidents. “If you’re looking headon to a train, you may think, ‘I’ve got time to get across.’ But you get in the middle of the tracks and the train is right there.” Once a train crew sees someone on the tracks, it’s often too late, and the effect on crews can be crushing. Delmer Hanson is a conductor on Union Pacific trains that run between Oregon and Idaho, and last year, for the first time in his 40-year career, he was on a train that hit a pedestrian. The accident happened outside Payette, Idaho. The crew saw a woman in the distance slowly approach the tracks. Her pickup was parked at a nearby crossing. Had the crew hit the brakes just then, the cargo train would not have stopped for more than a mile, Hanson said. Crews often see people approach tracks to place a coin on the track. That’s what Hanson’s crew thought the woman was doing and watched as she bent down, as if placing a penny on the tracks. There was nothing they could do. “It was a nice, bright, sunshiny afternoon,” Hanson said. “When we got real close, she just laid her body across the rail and we cut her in half at 45 miles per hour.” In maybe the last five years, railroads have increased efforts to help crews in situations like Hanson’s, according to Scott Palmer, a state chairman for the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen. Palmer, also an engineer with the BNSF Railway, and Hanson said many railroad companies have trained employees to serve as peer grief counselors. Crews often take several days off to recover, and if people need more help, they can take still more paid time off and get professional counseling, Palmer said. Even though he feels better, Hanson said the image of the woman may never go away. “It’s like hitting replay on your (VCR),” he said. “You just replay it over and over and over and over and over.”
Ups and downs Two or three days before Dorsey died, McKinney saw him sitting on the ground at Evergreen Avenue and the reroute. Another homeless man bent down and spoke to Dorsey, whose sign asking for money sat next to him. As her car idled at the stoplight, McKinney watched as Dorsey stared at the ground. McKinney had known Dorsey for more than a year at that point. Until recently, she’d made weekly trips to his campsite to deliver food and camping supplies. His campsite was always clean, and Dorsey kept a bag next to his tent for trash. Some mornings, Dorsey had cuts and bruises on his face and told McKinney that there had been a drunken fight in camp the night before. He shrugged the fights off. Even after those rough nights, Dorsey was always polite and grateful for McKinney’s help, she said. He never threatened her or other volunteers. But over the last year, McKinney saw Dorsey, whom she considered a friend, rise and fall emotionally. Last summer, someone gave Dorsey a Doberman puppy. He named the dog Chaos. For the few months, he had
Chaos, Dorsey seemed grounded and was the happiest McKinney had ever seen him. Then, on July 4, the fireworks in Redmond spooked Chaos, and Dorsey never saw the dog again. That was the most upset McKinney saw Dorsey until the March day when she watched him from her car. McKinney didn’t call out his name that day, and when the light turned green, she went on her way. “I thought I should stop and talk to him, and I didn’t,” McKinney said. “It’s the saddest I’ve ever seen him, and that’s the picture I have in my mind. That’s what I’m left with.”
In bad shape Dorsey was in a bad way the day he died, according to the police report. At 1:09 p.m., a Redmond police officer responded to a report that Dorsey was passed out on the reroute’s narrow median. The officer approached Dorsey, who was “slumped forward, with his head touching his feet, as he was sitting cross-legged,” the report said. The officer shouted at Dorsey, who didn’t move or respond. Standing next to Dorsey, the officer shouted again. Finally, Dorsey raised his head and said he’d been resting. According to the report, Dorsey’s speech was slurred and his eyes “bloodshot, glassy and watery.” He struggled to hold up his head. After the officer asked Dorsey to move away from the curb, he backed up and leaned against a streetlight. Sometime in the next few minutes, Dorsey’s friend, Steven Goodridge, was riding his bike into town. Goodridge saw Dorsey and called out to him, suggesting a visit to the “drinking tree.” While riding his bike toward the tree, Goodridge saw Dorsey start to cross the road, according to the report. Several witnesses also saw Dorsey weaving as he walked toward the tracks, and some drivers had to stop to let him cross, the report said. Shortly before 1:35 p.m., the BNSF Railway train passed through the Evergreen intersection at 39 mph — well below the posted 50 mph speed — according to a crew of inspectors from the Federal Railroad Administration that happened to be checking the crossing signals. From the train, the crew saw someone dressed in red or orange approaching the track. One of the train crew said he started to worry when Dorsey got closer to the track, and he slammed on the emergency brake. But Dorsey “timed it just right,” the report said. Dorsey never made eye contact with the train crew, who assumed the man committed suicide. But he may have been drunk and not heard the whistle. His schizophrenia may also have played a part. According to Dr. Joseph Barrett, a staff psychiatrist at St. Charles Bend, schizophrenics who are off medication can suffer from “impaired judgment.” People in Dorsey’s situation may also suffer hallucinations and delusions. “If thought perceptions are impaired, being able to assess danger is usually impaired,” Barrett said. “(Schizophrenics) are at high risk for accidents.” But, like police, Dorsey’s mother and others are left to guess at what happened on the day Mark Dorsey died. McKinney struggles with her memory of Dorsey on the last day she saw him and, despite his obvious sadness, is certain he didn’t mean to commit suicide. Dorsey’s mother also doubts he was trying to kill himself. She carries no illusions about her son, and understands that he’d struggled in Oregon. She knew that he often drank too much. But she holds on to the memories of jokes he told and of their last conversation. Andrea Dorsey hopes her son did the same. “I know he was drunk when he got hit,” she said. “But he was thinking about me, maybe.” Patrick Cliff can be reached at 541-633-2161 or at pcliff@bendbulletin.com.

Terror suspect was told he’d likely be raped in U.S., interrogator says By Carol Rosenberg McClatchy-Tribune News Service
GUANTANAMO BAY, Cuba — To get teen terror suspect Omar Khadr to cooperate, a former U.S. Army interrogator testified Thursday, he told the wounded Canadian a “fictitious” tale of an Afghan youth who was gang-raped in an American prison and died. “We’d tell him about this Afghan gets sent to an American prison and there’s a bunch of big black guys and big Nazis,” said the former interrogator who was since convicted of detainee
Evers Continued from A1 Evers, who has been charged alternatively as “John Doe,” appeared before a federal magistrate Tuesday in Idaho, where he was arrested last week by agents from the U.S. State Department Diplomatic Security Service. At a brief hearing, Evers agreed to come back to Oregon for prosecution. Investigators believe he assumed the identity of Jason Robert Evers, of Cincinnati, a 3-year-old boy who was kidnapped and killed in 1982. A man named Adrian Williams was convicted of the murder and is in prison. Since the arrest of “Evers,” lawyers who represent OLCC licensees say their clients are wondering if they can challenge sanctions Evers and his staffers issued during his eight years with the agency. “We are vetting whether and how licensees who were subject to enforcement action by this guy, essentially were prosecuted by his statements, whether and how they might have remedies,” said Portland lawyer Jesse Lyon, who has been working with OLCC licensees for 12 years. “If this happened in the courts, there would be a
abuse and was identified in court only as Interrogator No. 1.

An administrative law judge, the then-head of the OLCC and an independent investigator all found Evers’ reports and testimony were contradicted by video surveillance brought forth by the two licensees he sanctioned. Evers was promoted from an investigator to regional manager of the Bend-based office after the incidents and independent investigation. “It really calls into question whether the agency — now having learned what they’ve learned — if they ought to have been relying on or should have continued to rely upon what this guy was saying about most anything,” Lyon said. And there may not be a remedy for licensees, even if they question the legitimacy of Evers’ cases. Those who successfully appealed sanctions issued by Evers in the past aren’t likely to have their attorneys’ fees paid by the OLCC, said Bend attorney Bill Buchanan. And he’s told clients who have

He added that some licensees choose not to appeal sanctions because the cost of fighting a ticket can be more than the fine it carries. If licensees now have questions about the legitimacy of those cases, their only recourse might be asking the OLCC to reconsider. “Government is full of processes and, if you didn’t appeal it at the time, my guess is that you are going to lose your case,” Buchanan said. “And just because the guy lied about his identity doesn’t necessarily mean that every decision he made was wrong. I’m sure there are plenty of folks who he cited that probably did exactly what he cited them for.” Cindy Powers can be reached at 541-617-7812 or at cpowers@bendbulletin.com.

The now vacant building at the corner of Oregon Avenue and Bond Street in downtown Bend might serve as a fitting metaphor for the recessionfueled turmoil felt by the region’s financial institutions. It was once home to a Washington Mutual mortgage center that closed in September 2008 after the Seattle-based thrift was seized by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. Known as WaMu, the thrift was one of the leading originators of subprime
mortgage loans. Last spring, a bank in organization, Crown Point National Bank, moved into the building. A locally organized bank that hoped to benefit from a “clean” balance sheet and surging customer demand for credit at a time when most banks were tightening their lending standards, it failed to win regulatory approval from the FDIC and never opened. By Labor Day, a new tenant will occupy the building, Portland-based OnPoint Community Credit Union. See OnPoint / B5

A 1,000-point scare Investors rattled by the largest intraday decline on record New York Times News Service
A bad day in the stock market turned into one of the most terrifying moments in Wall Street history on Thursday with a brief, 1,000-point plunge that recalled the panic of 2008. It lasted just 16 minutes but left Wall Street experts and ordinary investors alike struggling to come to grips with what had happened — and fearful of where the markets might go from here. At least part of the sell-off appeared to be linked to trader error, perhaps an incorrect order routed through one of the

State economic index improves in March The University of Oregon Index of Economic Indicators rose slightly in March from February, but the pace of improvement slowed, according to a report Wednesday from the university. “The steady gains in the UO Index — especially the large gains compared to six months ago — signal sustained growth in Oregon,” the report said. “Still, labor market conditions remain challenging, as economic growth falls short of that necessary to generate solid gains in hiring intentions. Although hiring is expected to improve as ongoing recovery improves business confidence, the pace of growth looks consistent with only slow improvements in unemployment.” The index’s components include Oregon initial unemployment claims, employment services payrolls, residential building permits, weight-distance tax collections, the University of Michigan U.S. consumer confidence survey, real manufacturers’ new orders for non-defense/non-aircraft capital goods, and the interest rate spread between 10-year Treasury bonds and the federal funds rate. — From staff reports

If a nonprofit organization hasn’t filed its 2007 and 2008 financial forms with the Internal Revenue Service, the organization needs to ensure it files them for 2009 — soon. Otherwise, the organization could face losing its tax-exempt status because of federal legislation enacted at the beginning of 2007. If a nonprofit that operates on a calendar year doesn’t turn in its 2009 forms by May 15 — and if it already hasn’t filed forms for the past two years — the Pension Protection Act of 2006 would require the IRS to revoke the nonprofit’s exempt status, according to the IRS. The act specifically calls for revoking a nonprofit’s exempt status if the organization fails to file some version of IRS Form 990, the form for nonprofits to report financial information, for three consecutive years. The May 15 deadline to file the form represents the first possibility since the act was enacted for it to take away a 501(c)(3) organization’s tax-exempt status. Nonprofits have different Form 990 filing deadlines, depending on when each one ends its tax year. The deadline is always on the 15th day of the month, five months after the tax year ends. If a nonprofit operates on a fiscal year that ends July 31, for example, the deadline is Dec. 15. The IRS also has extended due dates. GuideStar, a Virginia-based nonprofit that tracks and posts 990s of nonprofits, estimates between 350,000 and 400,000 nonprofits nationally are in danger of losing their status. The IRS could not immediately provide how many Oregon or Central Oregon nonprofits are in danger. Even if a nonprofit does lose its exempt status, it can reapply to the IRS as a nonprofit. Any income received between the time its status is revoked and when it is reinstated may be taxable, according to the IRS. Chuck Arnold, executive director of the nonprofit Downtown Bend Business Association, said he thinks it’s valuable that nonprofits are required to file 990 forms, allowing the IRS and the public to see how organizations use their finances. It’s just part of doing business, said Arnold, who said he knows the business association has filed a 990 every year since 2006, when he became executive director. “It’s what you do.” See Nonprofits / B2

FCC outlines plan to control broadband, but not rates or content By Edward Wyatt New York Times News Service
WASHINGTON — The chairman of the Federal Communications Commission outlined a plan on Thursday that would allow the agency to control the transmission component of high-speed Internet, but not rates or content. In announcing the FCC decision, Julius Genachowski, the commission’s chairman, said the agency would begin a process to reclassify broadband transmission service as a telecommunications service, subjecting the Internet to some of the same oversight as telephone services. But, he said, the commission would also exempt broadband service from many of the rules affecting telephone service, seeking mainly to guarantee that Internet service providers could not discriminate against certain applications, Internet sites or users. The approach would specifically forbid the commission from regulating rates charged by telephone and cable companies for Internet service and would not allow the commission to regulate Internet content, services, applications or electronic commerce sites. The approach, Genachowski said, maintains the “status quo” and is intended to be “consistent with the long-standing consensus regarding the limited but essential role that the government should play with respect to broadband communications.” Opponents, including some telecommunications companies that provide broadband Internet service, said the approach would create uncertainty and legal battles that would slow the development of technologies that could benefit consumers. They also said that in making the legal justification for its decision, the commission seemed to be arguing the opposite of what it had previously asserted in a Supreme Court case on Internet regulation. The new regulatory framework was made necessary, Genachowski said, by a federal appeals court decision last month involving Comcast, the nation’s largest cable company, that invalidated the approach the FCC had taken to regulating broadband service. Under that approach, the commission maintained that it had “ancillary authority” to oversee certain aspects of broadband service, even though it did not fall under the strict rules that give the commission the power to regulate telephone service. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit said in April that the FCC’s classification of broadband service as an “information service” rather than as a “telecommunications service” did not allow it to sanction Comcast for slowing or blocking access by its customers to an application known as BitTorrent, which is used to share large data files, including video and audio.
Nonprofits Continued from B1 Another change enacted by the Pension Protection Act requires small nonprofits — those with less than $25,000 in gross receipts — to file 990 forms, while they previously were not required to do so. That could set up a small nonprofit for trouble, if it never realized it needed to file after 2007. Heidi Berkman, president of Friends with Flowers of Oregon, which provides fresh flowers to terminally ill people and had less than $25,000 in gross receipts, is getting ready to file a 990 form for her second year. She said the organization is able to operate on a minimal budget because it is entirely volunteer- and donation-based. “We do file every year,” said Berkman, who also owns her own marketing and event consulting business. “Being a business owner, I try to also regard my nonprofits in the same manner.” For more information about filing as a nonprofit, visit www.irs.gov/charities/article/ 0,,id=217087,00.html.

Executive pay has little to do with performance, study says By Jessica Silver-Greenberg and Alexis Leondis
From overpaid to underpaid
Bloomberg News
Kenneth Feinberg, the paymaster for General Motors and other companies rescued by the Treasury, has been promoting the idea of pay tied to performance. Pay expert Graef Crystal, a former adviser to Coca-Cola and American Express, has concluded that pay for performance is fiction. In a study for Bloomberg News, Crystal crunched the 2009 numbers at 271 companies to see whether higher shareholder returns, the gold standard of performance for investors, led to higher pay for chief executive officers, and vice versa. No matter how he sliced the data, the answer was no. “The return explained none of the variations,” said Crystal, 76, in a telephone interview from his home in Las Vegas. “Simply put, companies don’t pay for performance.” Among the 271 CEOs, average pay slipped 4.7 percent last year to $9.95 million, with extremes ranging from $43.2 million for CBS’s Leslie Moonves to $245,322 for Google’s Eric Schmidt. If CEOs were paid according to shareholder return, Moonves would take a $28 million pay cut under a model that Crystal developed. Schmidt would get more than a $17 million raise.
The formula Crystal’s model reapportioned pay according to a formula based two-thirds on shareholder return, and one-third on company size, measured by its sales. At CBS, “more than 85 percent of Mr. Moonves’ compensation is keyed to performancebased measures” and is “closely aligned” to shareholders’ interests, Dana McClintock, a spokesman, said. After a 61 percent raise that brought him $12.6 million in 2009, Eastman Kodak’s Antonio Perez made $9.29 million more than the Crystal model said he should. AT&T’s Randall Stephenson — up 85 percent to $29.2 million in 2009, primarily from an increased pension contribution — deserved $20 million less, according to Crystal.
when their companies’ stock plummeted. “On the down side, it’s never the CEO’s fault,” he said. “Yet, if the company has a good year, guys gather around him like he’s Julius Caesar.”

Moonves was paid $43.2 million last year, an amount that would be cut by $28 million if his pay were tied to performance, according to a model developed by pay expert Graef Crystal.
Schmidt was paid $ 245,322 in 2009, about $17 million less than he would have been paid if his pay were tied to performance, according to a model developed by Graef Crystal, a pay expert.
The CEO who would receive the most if shareholder return ruled in board rooms: Ford’s Alan Mulally, 64, who would move up to $19.6 million from $17.9 million. Ford was alone among U.S. automakers in avoiding bankruptcy last year. Its shares rose more than fourfold. The CEO whose actual pay was most out of line in the Crystal model was Cephalon Inc. founder Frank Baldino Jr., 56. He took home $11.1 million, more than eight times the $1.34 million allotted him by the formula. Tying Baldino’s compensation to stock price wouldn’t reflect his value to the biotechnology firm, said Sheryl Williams, a spokeswoman for Frazer, Pa.based Cephalon. “We don’t pay our executives based on changes in the price of the stock,” she said. “We pay them based on growth in sales and earnings.” The drugmaker reported net income last year of $342.6 million, a 78 percent gain. Shares were off 19 percent for the year.
Populist anger Crystal’s model was devised amid rising concern that executive pay is too high and calls from President Barack Obama
and others that CEOs should suffer when companies mess up. “It angers Main Street when it sees what executive pay looks like, especially on Wall Street,” Feinberg, 64, said in an interview. Warren Buffett, CEO of Berkshire Hathaway Inc., said in his recent shareholder letter that he wants to see “meaningful sticks” tied to the “oversized financial carrots” that are part of CEO and director pay packages. Ira Kay, a compensation consultant in New York, said Crystal and Feinberg are talking about the wrong performance gauge. Eighty to 90 percent of CEOs’ bonuses in 2009 were tied to earnings growth, which is highly correlated to stock price appreciation, according to Kay. Crystal acknowledges his model isn’t perfect. For one thing, he said, it assumes that the aggregate $2.7 billion that CEOs in the study received represents the appropriate level. If it were up to him, CEO compensation would be reduced across the board, he said. Throughout his career, which began in 1959 after he saw an ad for a wage and salary analyst in the Los Angeles Times, Crystal said he noticed that CEOs rarely saw their pay packages docked
For his study, Crystal included companies in the S&P 500 that had filed proxy statements for their 2009 fiscal years by April 16. Only CEOs who were in the position in 2008 and 2009 were included, for accurate comparisons. He found that 159 of the 271 CEOs would get raises if the total CEO payroll last year were redistributed according to his formula. The most underpaid of the “bargain” CEOs, Google’s Schmidt, received $245,322 last year, 99 percent below pay adjusted for shareholder return. Jeff Bezos, 46, of Amazon .com, was also rated as underpaid with a $1.78 million package, compared to the $18.3 million he would get under Crystal’s model. Stock of Seattle-based Amazon beat the S&P 500 by 136 percentage points in 2009. Bezos holds 92 million shares worth about $12 billion. On the opposite end of the spectrum was Kodak’s Perez, 64. Kodak, based in Rochester, N.Y., lost $210 million last year and its shares shed a third of their value. It cut 4,100 jobs. Kodak’s board approved a 9.8 percent base salary reduction for Perez, which its proxy filing said was larger than guidelines would have dictated, because of Perez’s “desire to lead in the shared sacrifice.” The sacrifice didn’t extend to the rest of Perez’s package — where directors changed terms in ways that benefited the CEO. The board said it was responding to what it saw as “strong incentive” for Perez to retire this year because parts of his employment agreement were expiring. Kodak had a successful 2009 and achieved the profitability and cash generation goals that were communicated to investors early in the year, according to David Lanzillo, a spokesman for the company.
European bank’s assurances fail to placate investors By Jack Ewing New York Times News Service
FRANKFURT — The European Central Bank disappointed investors hoping for decisive action on Thursday to contain the euro zone’s increasingly virulent debt crisis, pushing the euro to another low for the year. Investors had been speculating that the European bank might take the unprecedented step of buying Greek bonds itself after a 110 billion euro, or $142 billion, rescue package
Reform Continued from B1 The audit sought by Sanders would scrutinize an alphabet soup of programs that injected liquidity into the markets, ranging from commercial paper to money market funds. Under the proposal, the accountability office will not question whether the loans should have been made but will focus on operational integrity and accounting practices. The audit, however, would explore “whether the credit facility inappropriately favors one or more specific participants over other institutions eligible to utilize the facility” and “whether there were conflicts of interest with respect to the manner in which such facility was established or operated” as well as “the use, selection, or payment of third-party contractors by or for any credit facility.” The apparent compromise with the administration and the Fed would give Sanders and other critics of the central bank an opportunity to claim victory, while not breaching the Fed’s tenet that its monetary decisions be sacrosanct and insulated from political influence. In a floor speech, Sanders, who describes himself as a socialist, noted that odd bed-
by the European Union and International Monetary Fund, announced Sunday, failed to soothe fears that Greece would default on its debt. But the president of the central bank, Jean-Claude Trichet, said the subject of a drastic move to reassure markets, like buying government bonds directly, did not even come up at the bank’s regular monthly meeting, which was held in Lisbon on Thursday. Investors had hoped for a stronger indication that the cen-
fellows were supporting his amendment, including liberal and conservative groups, labor unions and antitax advocates, and senators from both parties. “How often do you have the AFL-CIO and FreedomWorks supporting the same effort?” he asked. “How often are the SEIU, which is the largest trade union in this country, MoveOn.org, Public Citizen, striving for the same goal as the National Taxpayers Union or the Eagle Forum or the Conservative Americans for Tax Reform?” “They are all united around the basic principle,” Sanders continued, “We need transparency at the Fed and we need it now.” Sanders complained that he had asked the Fed chairman, Ben Bernanke, “Who received more than $2 trillion loaned to some of the largest financial institutions in this country?” Sanders said, “I thought that was a pretty simple and straightforward question. Bernanke said, ‘no’ despite the fact that this was $2 trillion in zero interest or near-zero interest loans.” Some conservative Republicans said they were staunchly in favor of the proposal by Sanders. Sen. Sam Brownback, R-Kan., said the nation should take note that Sanders, one of the most liberal lawmakers, and Sen. Jim DeMint, R-S.C., one of
tral bank was willing to take bold steps in response to the debt crisis. In the absence of a strong European central government, the central bank is the main institution standing behind the single currency with the political independence to act quickly. But the crisis has sorely exposed the bank’s limited powers and influence, especially compared with its U.S. counterpart, the Federal Reserve. Deflated investors all but ig-
the most conservative, were on the same side. “The fact that this amendment is brought forward by the gentleman from Vermont, Sanders, and the senator, the gentleman from South Carolina, DeMint, should be a sufficient warning and measure to make everyone sit up and take notice of what is it that’s here that’s so troubling.” “This amendment isn’t about where the legislation will put an end to taxpayer-backed bailouts,” Brownback said, adding, “It’s about something I believe even more fundamental, the accountability of governmental institutions to the people of the United States and to the Congress.” DeMint in his own floor speech said the Fed had resisted public scrutiny for too long.” The Federal Reserve has been avoiding any kind of audit, any kind of accountability, any kind of transparency,” he said. “Every time we ask for some kind of disclosure, they are saying we’re violating their independence. We’re not violating their independence with this bill proposed by Senator Sanders. All we’re doing is uncloaking the secrecy.”
nored assurances by Trichet at a news conference that “Greece will not default.” Risk premiums on Greek bonds soared. Markets also took little comfort in Trichet’s effort to abate fears of a contagion by saying that “Portugal is not Greece, Spain is not Greece.” The risk premium on Spanish 10-year bonds over equivalent German debt rose to its highest level since the introduction of the euro in 1999, while the spread on Portuguese debt also widened.

Cash for Caulkers bill passes the House By Jim Abrams The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Homeowners could collect thousands of dollars in Cash for Caulkers rebates for renovating their homes with better insulation and energy-saving windows and doors under a new economic stimulus bill the House passed Thursday. The Home Star bill, passed 246-161, would authorize $5.7 billion over two years for a program that supporters — mostly Democrats — said would have the added benefits of invigorating the slumping construction industry and making the earth a little cleaner. “Home Star is that solid investment that’s going to achieve that hat trick of energy savings for the homeowner, of moving toward a cleaner environment and of creating jobs here at home,” said bill sponsor Peter Welch, D-Vt. Republicans overwhelmingly opposed the bill, and they were able to attach a condition that it would be terminated if Democrats do not come up with a way to pay for it. The measure has come to be dubbed Cash for Caulkers, a takeoff on the popular 2009 Cash for Clunkers initiative that rewarded people for replacing gas-guzzling vehicles with more fuel-efficient models. President Barack Obama praised the House action, saying the bill “will help jumpstart job growth and demand for new products created right here in America” as well as saving consumers money on energy bills. The initiative is separate from an energy tax credit of up to $1,500 that was included in last year’s economic stimulus act. That credit for energyefficiency improvements runs through the end of this year. Supporters estimate that 3 million households would make use of the new program, saving $9.2 billion in energy costs over a 10-year period. They said it would create 168,000 jobs, mainly in the recession-hit construction industry. “Nearly one in four workers in the home construction and services industry has been laid off,” said Energy and Commerce Committee chairman Henry Waxman, D-Calif. “Passing Home Star says, ‘Help is on the way.’”

A N A designer who makes Impalas do the limbo By Richard S. Chang
Batteries and hydraulic pumps line the trunk of Marvin Shivnarain’s ’64 Chevrolet Impala SS. Each pump is connected to a cylinder on each corner of the car.

BAY SHORE, N.Y. — Marvin Shivnarain, a 39-year-old graphic designer, opened the trunk of his 1964 Chevrolet Impala SS to reveal six large car batteries strapped in a line and four golden hydraulic pumps that shone in the afternoon sun. “Each one of these pumps goes to a cylinder on each corner of the car,” Shivnarain said, describing the mechanism that makes the chassis of his Chevy, a lowrider, rise when the hydraulic cylinders extend and drop down when the pressure is relieved. At the moment, the Impala was bottomed out, whiskers off the ground. “That’s a lot of power,” he said, referring to the batteries that provide electricity for the hydraulic pumps. “It’s very easy to burn through metal and to cause a giant fire by just touching the wrong wire with the wrong metal.” He spoke from experience. “There’ve been mishaps,” he said. Shivnarain recalled the first time he installed hydraulics, in a Ford Thunderbird during the early 1990s. He had not reinforced the sheet metal where the cylinders attached. A cylinder shot through the car — the lowrider equivalent of slipping on a banana peel — leaving him stranded in Manhattan. “Just stuck there for hours and hours,” he said, shrugging. “You can’t tow it — it’s too low. Basically, I almost dragged the car home.” Shivnarain was goaded into reliving those trying times one recent afternoon. He was wear-
Automakers say proposed regulations go too far By Justin Hyde Detroit Free Press
WASHINGTON — Detroit and foreign automakers came out Thursday against unlimited fines, per-vehicle fees and other key portions of an auto-safety overhaul pitched by congressional Democrats in the wake of Toyota’s slow launch of sudden acceleration recalls. The first hearing on the bill in front of a House Energy and Commerce subcommittee produced strong comments from several sides with one notable exception: the Obama administration, which said it was still studying the bill’s impact. Both the Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers, the trade group that includes Detroit’s three automakers and Toyota, and the Alliance of International Automobile Manufacturers, which includes major foreign automakers, warned that the bill went too far in reworking the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers President Dave McCurdy said the bill’s move to let NHTSA order a sales halt for vehicles posing an “imminent hazard” would violate the Constitution. He also said that a $250 million maximum fine for executives was excessive, being 50 times greater than the maximum set for financial crimes under the Sarbanes-Oxley reforms. McCurdy’s group did endorse several provisions, including mandating electronic data recorders and brake override. Lawmakers broke mostly along party lines, with Democrats backing the bill while Republicans raised concerns about industry mandates and the privacy of data captured by electronic recorders in vehicles. “This may be the most important vehicle safety bill in a generation,” said Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., the bill’s chief sponsor. U.S. Rep. Joe Barton, R-Texas, said while he agreed with the idea behind several provisions, the details “take it far beyond a rational response to the Toyota recalls. “This bill imposes more taxes, gives big government new unfettered authorities, and provides potentially crippling penalties on industry while providing questionable safety benefits,” Barton said.

Marvin Shivnarain, with his wife, Marsha, and son, Jayden, in his 1964 Chevrolet Impala, hopes to pass on the art of constructing a lowrider to his son. ing a blue T-shirt and jeans, and hosing down the Impala behind his house in this quiet Long Island suburb — an unlikely place to find a lowrider, much less a garage like Shivnarain’s. The garage is tall and white with an overhang on one side that shelters a vehicle lift. One of the two big barn doors was open wide. Spray nozzles for his airbrush gear and canisters of paint lined the door’s shelves. Shivnarain was a teenager, liv-
ing in nearby Hempstead, when he began airbrush painting on jeans and T-shirts. One day, a close friend hired him to do airbrush work on his 5-liter Mustang. “I was a little afraid of it,” Shivnarain remembered. “And he’s like, ‘What’s the worst that can happen? If it doesn’t come out good, we’ll sand it off and I’ll get it repainted. But if it works out good, I’ll give you 200 bucks.’” Just like that, a career was born.
Lowrider Impalas were the music video car of choice for rappers tall (Snoop Dogg) and small (Skee-Lo). Before he bought the silver ’64 Impala SS convertible he was washing, Shivnarain owned a standard ’64 convertible, which he sold to a man in Australia. “He owned a limousine business,” Shivnarain said. “And he said they loved the lowriders out there. They were booking it left and right for weddings and
all kinds of things.” Shivnarain remembered the car fondly. “It was all built up,” he said. “It had hydraulics, candy green paint — a nice looking car. But it wasn’t an SS, you know?” The SS — the abbreviation for Super Sport — was the top level of trim for Impalas. His current car is relatively tame by lowrider standards. It has hydraulics; the instruments have been replaced by a row of electronic readouts. But it lacks the dazzling finish of his previous car. There is some rust along the edges. Shivnarain plans to give the Impala the full lowrider treatment. But, he said, he has too many customer cars awaiting paint to work on his own. Shivnarain has also cut back the amount of time he spends doing airbrush graphics, a change necessitated by the pain lingering from an assault about six years ago. Leaving a restaurant in Hempstead with his brother and some friends, he said, two men approached; one pointed a gun at Shivnarain’s head. He managed to
bat down the assailant’s arm, but the gun went off and Shivnarain was hit in the side. His brother and a friend were also shot. The three men recovered from their wounds, but Shivnarain said there was still a bullet lodged close to his spine, and it becomes painful if he’s on his feet for too long. Now he does more of his design work at the computer — his company is called Artist Technicians — and spends less time doing custom paint for customers. His 2-year-old son, Jayden, ran around the backyard, stopping every once in awhile to dip a blade of grass into the soapy water. Shivnarain spoke about California, the epicenter of the lowrider culture, which can be traced to the ’40s. “When I’m out there, it’s like a history lesson,” he said. “I’ll be with guys all the way down in San Diego and up to Montclair. They all have different stories of what a lowrider is to them. I’ll reach out to the older lowriders, and they have some of the best stories from the ’70s and ’60s.”

Markets Continued from B1 After briefly sinking below 10,000, the Dow ended down 347.80, or 3.2 percent, at 10,520.32. The Standard & Poor’s 500-stock index dropped 37.75 points, or 3.24 percent, to close at 1,128.15, and the Nasdaq was down 82.65 points, or 3.44 percent, at 2,319.64. But up and down Wall Street, and across the nation, many investors were dumbstruck. Experts groped for explanations as bluechip stocks like Procter & Gamble, Philip Morris and Accenture plunged. At one point, Accenture fell more than 90 percent to a penny. P&G plunged to $39.37 from more than $60 within minutes. The crisis in Greece, highspeed computer program trading, the debate over regulatory reform in Washington, talk of errant trades — all were pointed to as possible catalysts. But most agreed the plunge would not have been nearly as bad if the markets had not been on edge already over the debt crisis in Europe. “There is a recognition that the Greek crisis has morphed into not only a European crisis but is going global,” said Mohamed El-Erian, the chief executive of Pimco. On the trading floor of the New York Stock Exchange, traders shouted or watched openmouthed as the screens lit up with prices plummeting and as
OnPoint Continued from B1 With more than $2.5 billion in assets, it’s the state’s largest credit union, and it plans to make the building its flagship branch in Deschutes County. As part of its expansion into the county, OnPoint will concurrently open another branch in Bend next to Boston’s The Gourmet Pizza restaurant in the Pioneer Crossing shopping center on South Third Street and in Redmond near Lowe’s in the Old Fair Shops retail center. The irony of moving into the former WaMu building is not lost on Kelly Schrader, OnPoint’s senior vice president of marketing and member services, who said credit unions have picked up market share from banks thanks to customers who are re-evaluating their banking relationships. “I hope it gives the right message,” Schrader said. “We believe any credit union is a good option ... it gives people the sense their dollars aren’t going to Wall Street and are really staying local.”
phones rang off the hook. “It was almost like ‘The Twilight Zone,’” said Theodore Aronson of Aronson, Johnson & Ortiz, a money management firm in Philadelphia. In Washington, a team of Treasury officials began combing through market tapes trying to figure out what was going on. By the evening, they still had not gotten to the bottom of it, but they discovered some aberrations — market blips — in trading coming out of Chicago. The Treasury secretary, Timothy Geithner, was returning from testifying at the Capitol and on the ride back to Treasury at about 2 p.m. looked down at his BlackBerry and saw that the market was down 3 percent. He called officials in the Treasury’s “market room,” which constantly monitors financial exchanges; they guessed that the cause was Greece’s and Europe’s financial woes. Minutes later in the Treasury hallway, Geithner looked again at his BlackBerry and saw the market was down nearly 9 percent. He told colleagues it had to be a mistake. Geithner immediately called the market room and then the Federal Reserve. He held a conference call with Fed officials and Mary Shapiro, the chairwoman of the Securities and Exchange Commission. About 3:15, Geithner walked over to the Oval Office to brief President Barack
Obama and other top officials. Next Geithner spoke with European central bankers. After the markets closed, at 4:15 and again at 5:45, he joined conference calls with the heads of the Fed, the New York Fed, the SEC and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission; the calls were expected to continue periodically into the evening. The Group of 7 ministers and governors, including Geithner, plan a conference call at 7:30 a.m. today Eastern time. As of about 6 p.m., all the officials knew was that there was what one official called “a huge, anomalous, unexplained surge in selling, it looks like in Chicago, at about 2:45.” The source remained unknown, but it apparently triggered algorithmic trading strategies, which in turn rippled across everything, pushing trading out of whack and feeding on itself — until it started to reverse. Federal officials fielded rumors that the culprit was a single stock, a single institution or execution system, a $16 billion trade that should have been $16 million. But they did not know the truth. What happens to the day’s market losers will depend on what the cause was, whether it can be identified. That’s a question for the SEC. The Nasdaq market said in the evening that it would cancel all trades in hundreds of stocks whose prices had swung wildly between 2:40 and 3 p.m.
According to the Credit Union Association of Oregon, which represents the majority of the state’s 82 credit unions, statewide credit union membership grew 2.7 percent in 2009 compared with 2008. Nationally, credit union membership growth was 1.4 percent in 2009 over 2008, according to the CUAO. However, credit unions are still a small part of the overall banking market in Oregon. The state’s credit unions held $13.3 billion in deposits in 2009, according to the CUAO. By comparison, banks operating in Oregon held $52.6 billion statewide in 2009, according to the FDIC. Both offer federal deposit insurance up to $250,000.
In addition to providing traditional banking services such as checking and savings accounts and investment products, they also make consumer loans, such as mortgages, auto loans and small-business loans, to members. By law, credit unions can lend no more than 12.25 percent of their assets in the form of commercial loans. The industry is lobbying federal regulators to raise the commercial lending ceiling to 25 percent of assets, arguing it could provide new sources of lending for credithungry customers. No such restrictions exist for banks, which are subject to income tax. Linda Navarro, president and CEO of the Oregon Bankers Association, said that credit unions, while once a valued resource for select employee groups with limited means, are acting more and more like banks and deserve to be taxed accordingly. She cited OnPoint as one, which was formerly known as the Portland Teachers Credit Union before changing its name in 2005 and adopting a com-
Bad blood While credit union membership may be growing slightly, there is still plenty of bad blood between credit unions and banks. Credit unions, which originated as member-based cooperatives, are exempt from federal and state income tax.

High-speed trading glitch leaves many questions, few answers By Nelson D. Schwartz and Louise Story New York Times News Service
The glitch that sent markets tumbling Thursday was years in the making, driven by the rise of computers that transformed stock trading more in the last 20 years than in the previous 200. The old system of floor traders matching buyers and sellers has been replaced by machines that process trades automatically, speeding the flow of buy and sell orders but also sometimes facilitating the kind of unexplained volatility that roiled markets Thursday. “We have a market that responds in milliseconds, but the humans monitoring respond in minutes, and unfortunately billions of dollars of damage can occur in the meantime,” said James Angel, a professor of finance at Georgetown University’s McDonough School of Business. In recent years, what is known as high-frequency trading — rapid computerized buying and selling — has taken off and now accounts for 50 to 75 percent of daily trading volume.
munity charter that allowed it to add new members based on geography. “When they are acting just like a bank — they are not focused on Portland and not focused on teachers — it’s really just a bank in disguise and should be taxed like a bank,” Navarro said. “Local community banks that are working hard to weather this downturn and deal with the pressures on them, it doesn’t help to pay any favors to tax-subsidized institutions to compete for the same customers and the same products,” she said. Troy Stang, the president and CEO of CUAO, said that if a bank doesn’t like being taxed, the bank’s directors should give up their stock and convert to a credit union. “Because credit unions are nonprofits, they return their earnings to the members in the form of cheaper fees, less costly services and dividends, and our members pay taxes on dividends,” Stang said.
Competition Bill Anderson, president of
At the same time, new electronic exchanges have taken over much of the volume that used to be handled by the New York Stock Exchange. Many questions were left unanswered, even hours after the end of the trading day. Who or what was the culprit? Why did markets spin out of control so rapidly? What needs to be done to prevent this from happening again? The Nasdaq exchange said it would cancel trades that moved shares more than 60 percent up or down at 2:40 p.m., when stocks like Accenture plummeted to a penny a share, for seemingly no reason. Exelon, the utility operator, fell to a hundredth of a penny, from $44. Procter & Gamble, a big component of the Dow Jones industrial average, dived 37 percent for a brief time before rebounding. The move by P&G alone pushed down the Dow by more than 150 points, providing cause for a broad alarm among investors, followed by panicked selling. The Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commis-
Mid Oregon Credit Union, the only credit union based in Central Oregon, said he welcomes the arrival of Onpoint to Deschutes County. Anderson said it will stoke competition, which benefits the consumer. “Competition is always good, and I really am, actually, looking forward to it,” Anderson said. “There will be more attention given to credit unions overall by having (OnPoint) here, and I think the bigger picture is that we are gaining so much market share, we frankly need some more credit unions here.” In addition to Mid Oregon, four other credit unions have branches in Central Oregon, primarily in Bend. They are Selco Community Credit Union and Northwest Community Credit Union, both of Eugene; SOFCU Community Credit Union, of Grants Pass; and Oregonians Credit Union, of Portland. Larry Snyder, president and CEO of Bend-based High Desert Bank, said he’s not too concerned with OnPoint’s arrival. Snyder lamented that credit unions don’t have to pay income taxes and, as a result, have an unfair ad-
sion said they were examining the cause of the unusual trading activity. How the markets managed to snap back remained a question Thursday night. The near-instantaneous swings left brokers dumbfounded. Dermott Clancy, who runs a New York Stock Exchange broker, said Thursday was one of the five worst days he has seen in 24 years in the business. When the market dropped across all indexes in a matter of minutes, customers were calling him nonstop. “They’re calling saying ‘Is there something I’m missing? Is there somebody valuing these securities at this level? Is there some news in the marketplace I’m not aware of?’” he said. The answer — that it all started with an apparent error — infuriated Clancy. “There are so many things wrong with what happened today,” he said. “The market was never down 1,000 points. Procter & Gamble should never have traded at $39. But a lot of people lost money as if the prices were meant to drop. This is an injustice to the public.”
vantage when competing with banks for traditional banking customers. Among Oregon banks, High Desert Bank, which opened in 2007, had the greatest year-overyear deposit growth, 132 percent from 2008 to 2009, according to the FDIC. But, looking at the larger picture, OnPoint’s arrival is good news, Snyder said. “I guess it’s a good sign when a new bank or credit union comes to town, as they see this as a viable market today and into the future,” Snyder said. Schrader said OnPoint, which already operates in Benton, Clackamas, Columbia, Lane, Linn, Marion, Multnomah, Polk, Washington and Yamhill counties in Oregon, and Clark and Skamania counties in Washington, decided to expand to Deschutes County because roughly 5,000 OnPoint members either live here or own vacation properties or second homes in the county.

Boeing books $3 billion order By Dominic Gates The Seattle Times
SEATTLE — Boeing revealed Thursday a massive order for 20 wide-body 777 jets, worth at least $3 billion in real market value. It’s the biggest jump in orders so far this year and was booked within the past week. Boeing added the order to its website in a routine update. Boeing will not say if the unidentified customer is a single airline or more than one customer. Many airlines like to reveal big airplane orders in a splash of publicity at the annual European air show, which this year is in July at Farnborough near London. The mystery order for 20 of the large twin-aisle 777s is worth something more than $5 billion at list prices, depending on the precise model. The estimated true value of about $3 billion is based on market pricing data from aircraft valuation firm Avitas.
Next month, the production rate for 777s in Everett, Wash., will be reduced from seven a month to five, a decision Boeing made last year as the global economic crisis hit its airline customers and shrunk air traffic. But the company announced in March that the 777 rate will go up again to seven a month in the middle of next year. In Boeing’s first-quarter earnings call last month, CEO Jim McNerney said more 777 orders were in the works but that the timing of announcements would be decided by the customers. “There are some unannounced orders. ... And there are some ongoing discussions where we have a high degree of confidence that are going to turn into orders,” McNerney said. “I’m being a little coy here, but I do want to respect our customers’ wishes. We are comfortable that the demand will support moving the rate up.”
AIG is said to be replacing Goldman as its top adviser By Louise Story and Eric Dash New York Times News Service
As its legal troubles mount, Goldman Sachs is losing a big corporate client: the American International Group. AIG, the insurance giant that retained Goldman to help restructure its businesses, has replaced Goldman as its main corporate adviser, according to three people familiar with the matter, which was not intended to be public. Instead, the insurer is turning to Citigroup and Bank of America. The move is the first in what some analysts warn could be a series of defections among Goldman’s clients following allegations — vigorously denied by Goldman — that it defrauded customers in a complex mortgage investment. A Goldman spokesman declined to comment. As Goldman’s legal problems have escalated — first with a civil fraud suit filed by the Securities and Exchange Commission, and then with a federal criminal investigation — some investors have grown increasingly anxious about the potential damage to Goldman’s reputation and business. AIG’s decision leaves Gold-
man out of the mix at a pivotal moment for the insurance company and breaks a traditionally close relationship. AIG, which has yet to repay billions of dollars of federal aid, helped to insure billions of dollars of Goldman’s mortgage securities, including seven deals like the one involved in the securities fraud case filed last month by the SEC. The news comes as Goldman executives prepare to meet with shareholders today at the bank’s annual meeting. Goldman’s chairman and chief executive, Lloyd Blankfein, will confront shareholders who are anxious over the SEC case and a continuing criminal investigation into the bank’s mortgage trading unit. In what some characterize as a referendum on Blankfein, shareholders will vote whether to separate the roles of chairman and chief executive. Many corporations, including major banks, have separated those roles to improve corporate governance.

MADRAS
High school writers publish diary entries By Lauren Dake The Bulletin
MADRAS — They call themselves the Buffalo Writers. They have stories of sexual abuse and alcoholic fathers, of homelessness and poverty. But their message is one of hope. More than 100 Madras High School students combined their diary entries and reflections to create “The Buffalo Writers’ Diary,” which will be published later this month. For many of the students, the project helped them realize they are not the only ones privately struggling. “At first I felt alone,” said David Zamora, 19, a senior, who worked on the project. “I was going through some pretty depressing situations, and others were going through them, too, or even harder things. It made me feel better, knowing I wasn’t the only one.”
‘Some wouldn’t even produce a sentence’ The students’ language development teacher Becky Dudney won a scholarship to study with Erin Gruwell, whose class published “The Freedom Writers Diary,” which was later depicted in a movie starring actress Hillary Swank. Dudney said when she first started the project, many of her students had trouble writing a complete sentence. “In the beginning, I just wanted my crew to start reading and writing, because some wouldn’t even produce a sentence,” she said. Dudney said she wasn’t expecting the project to become a book, but her students got really into the project. The proceeds of books sales will go toward creating a Buffalo Writers Scholarship fund, which will give money to Madras High School students headed to college. One student described the feeling of having suicide thoughts after a trusted family member sexually abused her. See Book / C5

isitors to the Deschutes and Ochoco national forests this summer will have a couple of new options for a sturdy roof over their heads. The U.S. Forest Service is adding two new overnight rentals — the Ochoco Ranger Residence and the Fall River Guard Station — to the existing two Central Oregon overnight facilities, and people have already started reserving available nights. “The word’s still getting out there, and we’re trying to promote it,” said Cathy Lund, who’s with the recreation staff of the Ochoco National Forest. Both cabins rent for $90 a night, and can be booked online. The two-story, three-bedroom Ochoco cabin sleeps up to eight people, and there is a kitchen but no telephone, and no cell service.

The Ochoco Ranger Residence has nicer detailing than some of the other buildings in the ranger station compound because it was built for the district ranger.
LA PINE — The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality is looking for help in finding ways to solve the problem of nitrates seeping into shallow groundwater around La Pine. On Thursday evening, the state agency held a meeting in La Pine to discuss how to form a steering committee to come up with suggestions for how to tackle the controversial issue. “We’re going to work with citizens to figure out what we’re going to do, and how we’re going to approach it,” said Joanie StevensSchwenger, the meeting’s facilitator with DEQ. Nitrates from the thousands of septic systems in southern Deschutes County have leaked from septic systems into the groundwater, causing concerns for nearby drinking water wells and waterways. In 2008, the Deschutes County Commission adopted an ordinance requiring some residents to upgrade their septic systems to prevent nitrates from leaking out. But many were upset with the rule and the costs associated with it. And in March 2009, voters overturned that rule. In July 2009 the DEQ said it would take over to find a way to help prevent further contamination of the aquifer. Officials held their first meeting on the new process in February, to talk with residents about forming a steering committee that could come up with options. They also sent out 10,500 letters to residents in south Deschutes County and north Klamath County, asking for volunteers for the steering committee — and 26 people sent in applications. At Thursday’s meeting, which about 75 people attended, DEQ representatives provided several options for how to pick the 11 committee members. Pamela Cosmo, of La Pine, said DEQ needs to take people’s experience with the nitrate issue into account. See Nitrates / C5
Bend teacher lauded for business education touts experience By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin
The Bend High School teacher recently named a 2010 outstanding high school business educator is known for giving students a great deal of responsibility that mimics real-world experience. Kristen Torkelson, 45, teaches marketing and oversees the Bend High DECA club, which provides students with business, management and entrepreneurial skills, and allows them to compete to prove they’ve mastered those skills. She is one of four teachers who received the Outstanding High School Business Educator Award, presented by Oregon State University’s College of Business as well as the Portland Tribune and Community Newspapers. She was honored Thursday at an awards dinner in Portland and received a $500 prize. Principal H.D. Weddel and another business teacher, Pat McHenry, nominated Torkelson for the award. “Her work ethic is just relentless, and she has a really great way of building relationships with kids,” Weddel said. “She has a real great knack for business.” Torkelson received a degree in marketing from New Mexico State University and was drawn to work with high school students. She eventually combined her two interests and began teaching business. She’s been a teacher at Bend High for 15 years. Before Bend-La Pine, Torkelson worked in Ashland and Klamath Falls. In Ashland, Torkelson was introduced to DECA and later started the Bend High program.

Kristen Torkelson inside her classroom at Bend High School on Thursday morning. “It’s such a great organization for students because they get hands-on experience,” she said. “Even if they’re learning how to answer the phone, they get something. They get these great skills.” The DECA program is a popular one at Bend High, and Weddel said Torkel-
son isn’t afraid to find students who will be successful, recruit them and get them involved. “Once they’re in, they’re sold,” Weddel said. Bend High’s DECA students routinely place near the top of state and na-
tional competitions, and this year senior Heather Harris took second place in the national advertising campaign competition. Torkelson is particularly proud of Heather’s work, she said, because her campaign went up against student advertising campaigns with much more money
behind them. Her students, she said, get important lessons through their work in DECA and in business classes. “Those are skills they can take with them,” she said. Torkelson teaches marketing and an advanced marketing class, and most of the advanced students also participate in DECA. In the advanced class, students create business plans, conduct market research and write papers that can run as long as 30 pages. “No matter what you do, what field you go into, it has to do with business,” Torkelson said. As part of the classes, students run the coffee shop and student store. They’re also in charge of designing the spirit wear, handling budgets and interacting with vendors. Weddel said Torkelson uses the student store and coffee shop as tools to get students to buy into the business program. “There are a lot of business teachers that can be good at business skills, but that doesn’t mean they’re good at bridging that gap of forming relationships with students,” he said. “They have to earn that right. She doesn’t throw it at them. When they do get to that point they are ready to run it, but she has prepared them for that. She gives them responsibility, but they’ve been prepared to do that. “That’s what we want from our kids. We want them to go out and be successful young men and women, and that’s what she’s preparing them to do.” Sheila G. Miller can be reached at 541617-7831 or at smiller@bendbulletin.com.

EUGENE — A fitness club operator accused of paying employees late or with bad checks has been ordered by the state to post a $187,200 payroll surety bond or shut down. The state Bureau of Labor and Industries said Synergy Fitness and Synergy Joint Venture have a documented pattern of paying workers late and giving them checks that bounce. “Employees shouldn’t have to race to a bank on payday, hoping to get their pay because they beat their co-workers to an account with too little money,� state
Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian said in a statement Wednesday. Troy Finfrock, managing partner of the companies that operate the clubs, told The Register-Guard newspaper he doesn’t know whether he will be able to post the bond, which amounts to six months’ worth of wages. Synergy Fitness and Synergy Joint Venture operate Gold’s Gyms in Eugene, Springfield and Salem. Finrock acknowledged problems at the Salem gym, and said he’s trying to sell it so he can focus on the others. Bureau of Labor and Industries spokesman Bob Esta-
brook said the law does not specify an appeal process, but a business could presumably challenge the agency’s enforcement action in court. Regulators received 15 written complaints between Feb. 19, 2009, and April 28, 2010. Finfrock signed a compliance agreement in March, pledging his company would comply with state law by maintaining regular paydays, paying final wages on the first business day after discharge or termination, and sending money deducted from wages for insurance coverage in a timely fashion.

Kiera Brinkley dances at her school in Portland on Monday. Brinkley was 2 years old when she contracted a bacterial infection that raged in her blood and would have killed her. She was rushed to the hospital, and doctors ended up having to amputate most of her arms and legs to save her life.
No limits, just hurdles for teenage amputee By Abby Haight The Associated Press
PORTLAND — Kiera Brinkley doesn’t mind curious children and mostly brushes off the stares of adults. Every once in awhile, someone will ask the 16-year-old about what happened to her legs and arms. She’ll explain: Doctors had to amputate them or a bacterial infection that raged in her blood would have killed her. She was 2 at the time. Sometimes, she’ll get a rude stare or a harsh question, and her normally sunny mood shifts. “I got in a fight with a shark,” she’ll flash back. She doesn’t let it get her down. She roams the halls of a Portland high school in a wheelchair, chatting with friends or taking in a hug or two. At home, she cares for her two sisters and a little brother, and makes them dinner. Through it all, Kiera dances, a lot, in the living room with her mother as her audience, in a practice studio at New York’s renowned Juilliard School and on stage with her high school classmates wildly cheering. When she sways, she’s no longer the girl in the wheelchair, the one with the missing limbs. “It lets people see the real me,” she says. Watching her, it makes you wonder how a little girl who lost her arms and legs at an age when most children are still getting used to their bodies grew into a young woman — and dancer — who believes there are no limits, just hurdles. Kiera was a bubbly, eager to help toddler. Once, she even managed to carry her crying infant sister, Uriah, to her mother in another room. She made everyone smile, says her 36-year-old mother, Elesha Boyd. One day, Kiera fell severely ill. Boyd left Uriah with her mother, and rushed Kiera to the hospital. As they waited in the emergency room, Kiera had a seizure. Doctors told Boyd that Kiera had an infection of the blood. As the bacteria spread and tissues died, Kiera slipped into a coma. Surgeons amputated all but a few inches of her legs, her left arm at the elbow and her right arm above the wrist. Much of that time was a haze. Boyd floated in a netherworld of worry and grief. She depended heavily on her church and faith. She says she never felt alone, sharing the pain she felt as a mother with her church family. When the day came to leave the hospital, Boyd knew that she could not let disability limit
Kiera Brinkley is shown at school Monday in Portland. Kiera’s future. “She doesn’t have any boundaries,” says Boyd, a bank supervisor who also danced and played flute growing up in Portland. “She just has hurdles, like we all have. Life for her wasn’t going to be: ‘You can’t do that.’” At home, Kiera worked with physical therapists and learned to walk with prostheses. But she was most comfortable getting around on her thighs. Uriah copied her like little sisters do, scooting around on her behind and never learning to crawl properly. Before Kiera began kindergarten, Boyd asked staff from Portland Shriners Hospital for Children — where Kiera had received much of her treatment — to visit the school and show a video about the kids who are treated at the hospital. Boyd hoped that Kiera’s soonto-be classmates wouldn’t treat her differently than any other kid. They did — she was greeted like a rock star. “She was eager to go to school, ready to try anything,” Boyd says. It soon became clear that the daughter of a woman who filled their home with dance, music, singing and art wanted to dance, limbs or no limbs. When it came time to move to middle school, Kiera won a lottery to attend DaVinci Arts Middle School. “I was so scared about middle school,” Boyd remembers. But she let go, giving Kiera space. School counselors advised teacher Kristen Brayson that a sixth-grader without arms and legs would be joining her tap
dance class. She remembers Kiera bounding from her wheelchair and doing cartwheels around the studio. This girl didn’t need any special treatment, Brayson recalls thinking. Boyd and her mother stitched small metal tap plates onto a pair of shorts so Kiera could dance with the same percussive rhythms as her classmates. The music drives her spirit, Brayson says. “I think that piece of her was going to drive her soul, no matter what,” the teacher says. Kiera introduced herself to the school at the fall talent show with a hip-hop routine to Lil’ Bow Wow. The crowd cheered, chanting her name. “She did this magic,” Brayson says. It stayed with Kiera into high school. Shriners’ staffers contacted the Dream Factory, a national organization that grants wishes to critically and chronically ill children. The group invited Kiera to live out one of her dreams: a trip with her family to New York City for a Juilliard workshop. Kiera choreographed her own routines, always imagining each move with the full reach of arm and leg. At Juilliard, she taught one of her dances to students. At the end of the session, Kiera and her mother sat off to the side, and the young choreographer yelled: one, two, three, go! She had never seen one of her works performed as she’d seen it in her mind. “My mom and I just sat and bawled — to see tall, long-armed, long-legged people do my dance,” Kiera says. Friday, April 2, was a special day. Kiera was going to perform at the school’s annual Diversity Assembly, a morning-long student showcase that included hiphop break-dancing, Japanese pop songs, hula and Vietnamese ceremonial dance. Her dance, set to Babyface’s “The Day,” was dedicated to a young cousin who had died in a fire several years earlier. As she danced, each move was charged with emotion. Tears wet her cheeks. On the final note, as she bent in a graceful bow, students jumped from their seats, applauding and shouting her name. Afterward, Kiera wheeled through the hallway to her honors English class. Several friends bent down to give her hugs. “When I dance, I can freely express myself,” she says. “It’s my own therapy.”

Shell to court: ready to drill in Arctic Ocean PORTLAND — Shell Oil says it’s ready to drill in the Arctic Ocean and has plans to deal with any problems if a federal appeals court allows it to begin its exploration project on schedule in July. Shell told a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Portland on Thursday it has met nearly all the government requirements for test drilling in the Beaufort and Chukchi seas off the northwest coast of Alaska. But lawyers for a coalition of environmentalists and Alaska Native groups argue that more study is needed, especially after the recent Gulf of Mexico oil spill showed the risk of a catastrophe. The coalition says it’s much harder to clean up a large spill in the harsh climate of the remote Arctic Ocean and have asked the judges to delay the Shell project.

Although detectives investigate several cases of sexual assault on the OSU campus each year, Lanz says it’s very rare to have a case where the victim doesn’t appear to have any acquaintance with the attacker. — From wire reports

PORTLAND — Oregon House Republican Leader Bruce Hanna wants state Attorney General John Kroger to release all documents relating to his former special counsel for environmental affairs, who resigned last month. A deputy attorney general replied Thursday that the documents are being reviewed, and some cannot be released due to attorney-client privilege. The letter from Deputy Attorney General Mary Williams says those that can be released will be posted on the Oregon Department of Justice website. Brent Foster resigned after telling Kroger he misrepresented his involvement in the investigation of water pollution allegations against the owner of Hood River Juice. Hanna says the case raises questions about Kroger’s commitment to a positive business climate.

Keep pushing for bilingual class
W
e hope that the Crook County School District’s curriculum director, Dennis Kostelecky, is right, and that the district can add a bilingual kindergarten this
fall at no additional cost to the financially strapped school district. What an opportunity for young learners! Kostelecky and the district hope they are given the go-ahead and can get the program up and running. After that, they hope to expand it by a grade each year, giving the students enrolled, both native English and native Spanish speakers, an educational leg up that will pay off in a variety of ways. If they are able to do so, Crook County’s schools will be on the forefront of foreign language instruction. As recently as 2006, fewer than a quarter of American public elementary schools had any foreign language instruction. Expanding that number has become a cause that crosses U.S. government departmental lines to include both State and Education, according to the State Department’s website. In China, by contrast, every elementary school child is required to study English. There’s good reason to work to expand U.S. students’ foreign language learning. Children going to school today are growing up in a far different world than their grandparents did. And where foreign language is concerned, education hasn’t completely kept pace. Kids today can expect to work in an international marketplace, for one thing. Mexico, where Spanish is the native language, is the third largest U.S. trading partner. The idea doesn’t enjoy unqualified support on the Crook County School Board, unfortunately. Board member Steve Caraway has asked, “if I went to Mexico as a student, would they spend their tax dollars to teach me to speak Spanish?” If “you come to America,” he
What Mexican schools do or don’t teach is irrelevant. What is relevant, on the other hand, is the potential of bilingual programs to teach foreign languages to two groups of kids simultaneously ...

What is relevant, on the other hand, is the potential of bilingual programs to teach foreign languages to two groups of kids simultaneously. Spanish-speaking kids learn English, and English-speaking kids learn Spanish. Assuming Crook County’s program is both affordable and effective, it appears to have no down side. Teaching kids is what schools are supposed to do, isn’t it? Crook County’s schools have faced more than their share of difficulties in recent years, and money has been behind most of them. If the district can put this program in place at a price it can afford, those lucky enough to be involved will have gotten a concrete education in something they’re likely to be able to use their whole lives.
A prize principal Editor’s Note: The following editorial appeared on Wednesday, May 5. However, that version misidentified Bruce Reynolds’ school.
H
ere’s what it takes to be named Oregon’s elementary school Principal of the Year: a genuine love of kids and lots of hard work. Bruce Reynolds of R.E. Jewell Elementary School has and does both. His hard work may well translate into hard work for his teachers and students, but it pays off. When he took over in 2003, the southeast Bend school had problems. Test scores for Latino, economically disadvantaged and disabled students were well below benchmarks, and it was clear something had to be done. Reynolds and his staff, partly with the help of federal funds, have turned things around dramatically. About 90 percent of Jewell students met reading and math benchmarks in 2008-09, and the number continues to rise. The next accomplishment in his sights is a dramatic improvement in
student writing skills. It could be that any crackerjack administrator could put in place a program to raise scores, but that doesn’t seem likely. It takes a genuine love of children and a willingness to understand how to help them learn. It also takes genuine respect between principal and teachers to make a plan work, for without it the cooperative effort such an undertaking requires simply won’t be there. The award is the top honor conferred by the Confederation of Oregon School Administrators. Reynolds is quick to share credit with students and staff alike. He’ll now compete for the similar national award, which will be made next fall. We don’t know whether he’ll win or not, but already his work has paid off. If imitation is the highest form of flattery, Reynolds should feel flattered, indeed. What he, his staff and students at Jewell are doing works so well that other schools in the district are copying their efforts.
My Nickel’s Worth Adkins for sheriff The citizens of Jefferson County have a decision to make regarding the election of our sheriff. On one hand, we have a man who was raised in Jefferson County in a law enforcement family and served with distinction for 24 years in the sheriff’s office. On the other hand, we have two newcomers with limited experience and none serving the citizens of Jefferson County. Jim Adkins has dedicated his life to Jefferson County and the sheriff’s office. It is no accident that Jim has risen through the ranks to become undersheriff. I retired from the Jefferson County sheriff’s office in 2001. During my years there I had the privilege of working with Jim in several capacities. Early in Jim’s career I was his supervisor. Later Jim was promoted, and we were equals. Prior to my retirement, Jim became my supervisor. Jim excelled in every capacity with integrity and distinction. Jim’s honesty and dedication are beyond reproach. We, the citizens of Jefferson County, have had the honor of Jim’s service for the last 24 years, and electing him sheriff would not only be right for Jefferson County but is definitely a “no brainer.” Bill Howland Madras
lieve that there are great people who want to do what is right regardless of their affiliation. First, I wish to advise all parties and their candidates that I’m looking for a new governor for the state of Oregon, not the old governors. There are two issues that I will look for in a new leader. First, I want a governor who will step up and take back control of the Public Employee Retirement System. We must have a governor who isn’t controlled by this group and is willing to make change for the good of the taxpayer. How can we as taxpayers guarantee their investments? Let’s get this fixed once and for all. Second, we must scale back Oregon government, This four-day work week isn’t the answer. I know state employees who are working overtime, being paid 1½ times the regular salary so they can take their required Friday off. Our state has far too many high level salaried staff and too many workers who don’t have enough to do. I would like to see a governor who is bold enough to reduce top level employees by at least 20 percent and hourly workers by 15 percent. It’s time that our state gets in line with the economy and stops the bleeding of taxpayers and adding to the debt. It’s time for real change. Dale Key La Pine
A new governor
Support Alley
I’m a registered Democrat. However, I have voted for candidates of all three parties and will continue to do so. I be-
Allen Alley should be embraced by the state workforce and current Public Employee Retirement System members
as their pick for Oregon’s next governor. Here’s why. Alley’s plan for the state workforce and PERS, as laid out in his vision for Oregon entitled “Imagine Oregon” (which may be found at allenalley.com), protects all current state employees and PERS members. The workforce will be trimmed through attrition and not through an unimaginative, slash and burn, general budget cutting process. The state’s business would be enhanced with better training and productivity tools. The contraction of state government would be orderly, with protections and loyalty for current state workers. PERS would be handled in the same thoughtful way. Some eligible PERS members would be offered present value retirement options if that were more valuable to them than the future value of a full PERS retirement. A cash buyout would limit an ongoing state liability for those who would find this attractive. PERS would limit future liability by creating a fourth tier for new hires that would look like a defined contribution plan. Again, current members would not be affected by a knee-jerk, total PERS makeover. I do not have a “dog in this fight” other than my tax money and the future of Oregon. Allen Alley does not enjoy overwhelming support of the public employee unions and Oregon Education Association. He should. He has presented the only cogent solution to the question of a bloated government and an unsustainable retirement plan while leaving current members whole. Mike Folkestad Crooked River Ranch

Bend’s downtown has weathered the recession fairly well
D
riving though downtown Bend these days it’s difficult to believe the local economy is anything but the picture of health. While there are some empty store fronts, most business space is filled and parking remains at a premium. Perhaps most noticeable — to me, at least — no one has come up with a scheme to revitalize the area. It’s clearly pretty vital the way it is. That’s not always been the case. During the early 1970s, as one example, downtown Bend was in such straits that a major urban renewal effort began and failed. Boy, did it fail. It’s hard to imagine today, in a city of more than 80,000 residents, just how controversial the Bend Development Agency’s plan to redo the northern edge of downtown really was. In fact, the plan the BDA created finally went to a vote of the people and was rejected by about a 2-to-1 margin. Today, the controversy of more than 30 years ago is unknown to many newer
Bend residents and perhaps forgotten by many of us who lived here then. But in the early 1970s, in a city of fewer than 16,000 residents and declining population and property values, both the need for change and resistance to it were at the top of nearly everybody’s list. The Bend Development Agency, a group of Bend businessmen appointed by the then-city commission, oversaw the project. It would be paid for by tax increment financing, the method used to finance some of downtown’s most recent changes. Tax increment financing is simple, really, despite its name. If taxes on a given piece of property are $100 a year when the financing term begins and rise to $150, the owner continues to pay his full tax bill over the life of the financing plan. The city continues to collect all it’s owed, too. But the $50 in increased taxes will go not to the city’s general fund, but to, in this case, the Bend Develop-
JANET STEVENS ment Agency to pay for urban renewal projects. Objections to the taxing plan centered on the notion that somehow city property owners outside the downtown district would be cheated out of revenue within it. It’s true that during the life of the district, increased taxes within the district would not result in new money for anything but projects within the district. But, once the district was dissolved, the whole city would benefit from a revitalized area in which property values and resulting tax collections had risen more than they otherwise would have.
Paying for the project wasn’t its only problem, however. It involved realigning the intersection of Greenwood, Wall and Newport Avenues and creating a “superblock” closed to traffic north of the new intersection. Eddie Williamson, whose property — where Bank of the Cascades now sits — would be affected, objected. He wasn’t alone. Businessman Al Eriksen joined Williamson and several others and fought to stop the plan. Then the rumors started. Businesses that stood in the way of the BDA would be confiscated, the owners’ property taken from them at bargain basement prices. The Pine Tavern would be torn down, as would housing within the urban renewal area. None of it was true, but the rumors and misunderstandings about the tax plan were enough to sink the proposal. In retrospect, that may not have been such a bad thing. Downtown pedestrian malls have not all been the successes their creators had hoped for — and
downtown Eugene is a prime example of what happens when they’re not. The Eugene pedestrian mall is roughly contemporary with the one planned for Bend, and the differences in vitality of the two core areas are unmistakable. More important, the BDA’s most recent successor sought to address the core area’s major problem, parking, and to help finance other, smaller changes that were largely cosmetic in nature. All of it was done without widespread controversy, and while redevelopment has not been the sole reason for the downtown area’s success, it surely hasn’t hurt. I don’t doubt that downtown Bend has suffered as much as other business areas during the current recession. But like most of them, it seems to have weathered the downturn reasonably well, even without a major overhaul. Janet Stevens is deputy editor of The Bulletin.

Phillies great, Robin Roberts, dead at 83 McClatchy-Tribune News Service Hall of Fame pitcher Robin Roberts, a star of the 1950 Whiz Kids who stayed connected to the 21st-century Phillies, died Thursday morning at his home in Temple Terrace, Fla. Roberts, 83, died of natural causes. He is best known as the staff ace of the 1950 Phillies, a team that captured the franchise’s first National League pennant in 35 years before being swept in the World Series by the New York Yankees. The hard-throwing righthander went 20-11 for the Whiz Kids, including a pennant-clinching victory over the Brooklyn Dodgers on the final day of the season.

Cabins Continued from C1 The 600-square-foot Fall River cabin has two bedrooms and sleeps up to five people. Although it has no running water, the fridge, stove and lights run off of propane, and it has an outside toilet. Putting the old ranger residence into the rental program allows the Forest Service to keep it maintained, and allows it to be available for the public as well, she said. The historic building, built in the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps, was a part of the Ochoco Ranger Station compound, said Paul Claeyssens, archaeologist with the Forest Service. “It was more of the hub of the district because the ranger’s job was hypothetically never done,” he said. “Work occurred in the home, and the ranger’s spouse ... was generally part of the social fabric (of the community) as well as helping run the district.” Because it was the ranger’s house, it’s a little fancier than other buildings on the compound, he said, with wood detailing and nicer paneling. And for forest visitors these days, the house is in a good location, Lund said — close to hiking trails, across the street from a campground and a group activity location. It’s slated to be open in winter as well, she added, when visitors to Walton Sno-park could take advantage of the nearby skiing and snowmobiling trails. “It gives them a nice warm dry place to come back to,” Lund said. The new rental will give visitors to the forest more options, she said. The Ochoco National Forest currently offers the Cold Springs Guard Station overnight rental, but that site is more remote, and booked about 90 to 95 percent of the time. The Forest Service spent about $15,000 fixing up the ranger residence for renting, she said, including about $5,000 on new furnishings. The cabin will rent for $90, and the fees go back to maintenance and projects on-site. In the Deschutes National Forest, staffers looked at administrative and recreational facilities in the forest, and figured out which ones weren’t needed, said Mark Christiansen, recreation program manager for the national forest. One site the agency didn’t need
Book Continued from C1 Another spoke of a father who beat her mother and was in and out of prison. Every student was assigned a number and wrote under that number so no names are associated with specific entries. Others shared reflections on race and talked about less traumatic events in their lives. Eliza Cornelio, 18, a senior, said it felt good to write down her feelings. “It makes a difference not keeping everything to yourself,” she said. Lucero Lopez, 15, a senior, said she has started keeping her own personal diary since the class started. “I learned you can write about things instead of holding them in,” she said. “I wrote about my dad not being in the picture ... I haven’t seen him for seven years.” Dudney and the students are holding a book signing for the public later this month. Many of the students said the class has made them more confident. Clarence Mckinley, 15, a sophomore, said he’s no longer afraid to speak up or talk in class. Others said it helped them realize that, despite being from different races and cultures, they have a lot in common. “Before this class, you didn’t

Continued from C1 “We need to have people knowledgeable about the whole history, what we’re fighting for,” she said. “There are a lot of people in this room who have been studying this for more than three years.” Most present agreed that choosing committee members based on where they lived, to get a diverse geographical representation, and what organization they belonged to was a good plan. Still, many at the meeting
The meeting also covered how long committee members would serve, and what might be included in the charter. Former La Pine Mayor Stu Martinez was at the meeting, and said that the state is doing what it needs to be doing in taking the lead and acting as mediators, and said that the process could take a while. “Patience is going to be needed. It’s not going to happen overnight,” he said.

questioned whether nitrates are even a problem, and asked what influence the steering committee would have on DEQ’s decisions. “Are you really going to listen to us?” asked Liz Harmon, of La Pine. Eric Nigg, regional water program manager with DEQ, said the agency would listen. “I know this is a trust issue,” he said. Several residents at the meeting said that so far, working with DEQ staff has been easier than working with Deschutes County representatives.

Volunteers had already made improvements to the site, cleaning it up, painting it, replacing windows and making repairs. The Forest Service spent up to $25,000 making additional improvements, he said, most of which went to installing an outside toilet at the site. While the Ochoco rental was a ranger’s residence, the Fall River home was designed for the forest guard who worked for the ranger — and so is a little smaller, Claeyssens said. The forest guard was in charge of sections of the ranger district, he said, and had some fire protec-
tion responsibilities and was also the Forest Service representative who interacted with the people who lived nearby. Because much of the area was only reached by primitive roads, it would have taken a long time to get from the central ranger stations to the outer parts of the district. “The guard stations are often in exceptional settings,” he said, noting the Fall River station’s proximity to hiking trails, fishing and scenery. Christiansen said the agency also considered about a dozen other sites for rentals, and might look at turning the Crescent Lake Guard Station into an overnight rental in the future. Other sites, he said, would probably require too much of an investment to bring up to a standard for people to stay there. “A lot of these facilities that have not been used for years have significant backlog maintenance needs,” Christiansen said.

IN THEIR WORDS ‘I’ve never been homeless to the point where I’ve been out on the streets, but I do feel homeless because I don’t have a place to call home. I have a warm place to stay but I never have much to eat. My mom had to suffer this way also.’ ‘My mom still has two scars on her head from my father’s beatings. One time he bit her. Today we live with my mother. She takes care of us. I will be the one to watch over my family now like my father, but with care. I will not become my father. My mother is the one I will become.’ ‘Then I saw my best friend laying on the ground. I ran to see if he was okay. He had a bullet in his chest. His last request was for me to take care of his mom. This is my memory of him.’ — Excerpts from “The Buffalo Writers’ Diary” see Hispanic or native kids working together. We didn’t get along,” Zamora said. “But we worked together in this class.” Madras High School has historically been one-third American Indians, one-third white and onethird Hispanic students. The district’s community liaison, Foster Kalama, said the book
was important to remind people what a diverse community is at Madras High School. “I think it needs to be heard at times,” he said. “And it’s not always heard.” Lauren Dake can be reached at 541-419-8074 or at ldake@bendbulletin.com.

Ducks, Beavers meet in Civil War three-game series
Hotshots to play games in Redmond
CORVALLIS — Just a few short years ago, Oregon didn’t have a baseball team and Oregon State was winning back-to-back national championships. Now the Ducks are ranked No. 15 in the country and the Beavers sit at the bottom of the Pac-10 standings. The teams meet in a threegame Civil War series this weekend in Corvallis. Two of the games will be broadcast on television. Saturday’s 1 p.m. game will be shown on Fox Sports Northwest; Sunday’s 1 p.m. contest will be aired on Comcast SportsNet Northwest. All three games will be broadcast on the radio on KICE-AM 940. The Ducks (30-15, 108 Pac-10) have won four consecutive Pac-10 series (Stanford, UCLA, USC, Washington State), and are tied with Stanford for third in the league standings. After spending the first nine weeks of the season ranked in the top 25, Oregon State (21-17, 4-11) has spent the last three weeks out of the Baseball America Top-25 poll. Oregon State’s Adalberto Santos will be looking to extend his hitting streak to 10 games today. It would be the first double-digit hit streak in OSU history. — From wire reports

MOUNTAIN BIKE TRAIL GUIDE
Montreal’s Maxim Lapierre celebrates his third-period goal against Pittsburgh on Thursday.
Suttle Lake Trail
The Dalles-Wahtonka pitcher Ann-Marie Guischer stifled Summit’s bats Thursday in the Eagle Indians’ 5-1 Intermountain Conference road win. Guischer, who recorded 19 strikeouts against league-leading Pendleton last week, threw a onehitter against the Storm to improve The DallesWahtonka’s record to 13-3 in league play. Summit (7-9 IMC) kept the game close, but was never quite able to string together enough quality at bats against the Eagle Indians. Lacey Hice had the Storm’s lone hit, an RBI double in the fourth inning. Rylee Parke led the way for The Dalles-Wahtonka at the plate, ending the day three for four with a double, a home run and four RBIs. With the loss, Summit is now tied for fifth in the IMC with Hermiston. The Storm remain in the state playoff hunt, though, with two more games against The Dalles-Wahtonka as well as a threegame series against Madras. The White Buffaloes are 8-8 and alone in third place in the league standings.
Intermediate route is fun for families and more advanced riders
CORRECTIONS In a story headlined “Bradley asks M’s for emotional help,” that appeared in the Bulletin on Thursday, May 6, on Page D1, a picture was included that identified the player as the Seattle Mariners’ Milton Bradley. The picture was of another Mariner, Chone Figgins. A prep sports roundup headlined “Sisters cruises in Sky-Em softball win at Pleasant Hill” that appeared in Wednesday’s Bulletin on Page D3 contained incorrect information about Summit’s 7-1 victory over Madras in boys tennis. Kesh Phillips of Madras defeated Alex Virk of Summit 2-6, 6-1, 6-1 in No. 1 singles play and the Storm’s Bo Hall and Dylan Lowes topped the White Buffaloes’ Alexsis Penaloza and Caleb Freshour 6-2, 6-7 (8-6), 6-2 in No. 3 doubles action. The Bulletin regrets the errors.

Editor’s note: Mountain Bike Trail Guide, by Bulletin outdoor writer Mark Morical, features different trails in Central Oregon and beyond. The trail guide appears on alternating Fridays through the riding season.
T
he western horizon from Sisters was dominated by an ominous wall of clouds, and we were headed right for it. At least we knew what we were getting into. Or did we? For a mountain biker, riding a trail for the first time is always a special thrill — the thrill of the unknown. But add to the unknown 40 mph winds and driving rain, and that thrill can quickly change to: “Get me back to the trailhead and the car.” Earlier this week, Bulletin photographer Rob Kerr and I drove the 45 minutes from Bend to the Suttle Tie and Loop trailhead just off U.S. Highway 20 at George McAllister Road northwest of Sisters. Neither of us had ridden the trail before. A light drizzle fell as we made our way among giant ponderosa and lodgepole pine trees in the Deschutes National Forest. See Suttle Lake / D6

Internet sensation wants to prove he’s not just a brawler By Greg Beacham The Associated Press
Kimbo Slice is deep in the second act of his uniquely American life. Although mixed martial arts already made him rich and famous, this time around he’s determined to really learn how to fight. The man with MMA’s most fearsome face knows he doesn’t have to be sweating away in the American Top Team gym seven days a week in his native South Florida. The former street fighter easily could coast on his stardom after an unusual confluence of image, charisma and luck brought his glowering, heavily bearded visage into millions of homes on CBS a few years ago.

• Mariners put Milton Bradley on restricted list: Milton Bradley was placed on the restricted list by the Seattle Mariners on Thursday, a day after asking the team for help in dealing with “emotional stress” from personal issues. Seattle recalled outfielder Michael Saunders from Triple-A Tacoma to fill Bradley’s roster spot. While on the restricted list, Bradley cannot be in uniform or with the team. He will miss at least five days and won’t go on the Mariners’ eight-game road trip that begins next Tuesday in Baltimore. • Former OSU shortstop Barney named to legends team: Former Oregon State shortstop Darwin Barney has been named to the College World Series Legends Team as a utility player. The NCAA announced the team Thursday. It’s comprised of former players who had the best College World Series performances during the event’s 60-year run at Omaha’s Rosenblatt Stadium. The Portland native batted .298 and played superb defense in Oregon State’s three appearances. Barney currently plays for the Triple-A affiliate of the Chicago Cubs.

• Raiders cut ties with Russell: The Oakland Raiders have released former No. 1 overall pick JaMarcus Russell after three unproductive and highly paid seasons. The decision comes less than two weeks after Oakland acquired Jason Campbell from Washington to take over at quarterback. Russell will now likely be considered the biggest draft bust in NFL history. He will have been paid more than $39 million by the Raiders, while producing only seven wins as a starter. • Bengals agree to deal with Jones: Adam “Pacman” Jones agreed to a two-year deal with the Cincinnati Bengals on Thursday, putting the troubled cornerback on a team with a history of giving players second chances. Jones, who was released by the Cowboys after the 2008 season and didn’t play last year, worked for the Bengals twice this offseason, including Tuesday. • Minn. judge sides with NFL in StarCaps case: A Minnesota judge chastised the NFL on Thursday and said the league broke state law even as he handed the league a significant victory in a closely watched lawsuit by two Minnesota Vikings challenging their suspensions for taking a banned substance. Hennepin County District Judge Gary Larson said the NFL failed to notify the two players of their test results within three days, as required in Minnesota, and said an NFL official played “a game of ‘gotcha’ with them. But he said that wasn’t enough to block the NFL’s plan to suspend the players for four games each. The decision doesn’t necessarily clear the way for the NFL to suspend Kevin Williams and Pat Williams for part of next season, however. The judge put off a decision on whether to extend an injunction blocking the suspensions pending an expected appeal by the players. • Ex-NFL star Lawrence Taylor charged with N.Y. rape: Pro Football Hall of Famer Lawrence Taylor was charged Thursday with raping a 16-year-old runaway who police said was forced into prostitution by a man who had beaten her up. Taylor, a 51-year-old former New York Giants star who has faced drug and tax evasion charges in the past, allegedly paid the girl $300 for sex in a Holiday Inn, where he was arrested early Thursday.
Basketball • LeBron, Howard unanimous All-NBA picks: LeBron James and Dwight Howard were unanimous choices for the All-NBA Team, while Kobe Bryant received 119 of 122 votes from writers and broadcasters. James was a unanimous pick for the second straight season and made his fourth all-NBA Team. Kevin Durant and Dwyane Wade completed the first team Thursday. Carmelo Anthony, Dirk Nowitzki, Amare Stoudemire, Steve Nash and Deron Williams were selected to the second team. Tim Duncan, Pau Gasol, Andrew Bogut, Joe Johnson and Brandon Roy were third-team picks. • Butler’s Hayward staying in NBA draft: Butler’s 6-foot-9 sophomore forward Gordon Hayward confirmed on Thursday that he will remain in the NBA draft, giving up his final two years of college eligibility.
Tennis • Djokovic reaches quarters at Serbia Open: Defending champion Novak Djokovic advanced to the quarterfinals of his hometown tournament Thursday by beating Fabio Fognini of Italy 6-4, 6-4 in the second round of the Serbia Open. • Jankovic routs Venus Williams in Rome: Twotime champion Jelena Jankovic rolled to a surprisingly easy 6-0, 6-1 win Thursday over Venus Williams and prevented an all-Williams semifinal at the Italian Open. Earlier, Serena Williams overcame a rough stretch in the second set to dispatch Maria Kirilenko 6-1, 6-4.
Cycling • Olympic track cycle teams cut: The International Cycling Union has changed qualification rules for the Olympic track program by restricting nations to one entry per race. The new format is a blow to the British team for its London Games in 2012 after it placed two riders on the podium in four different medal races at Beijing two years ago. Cycling’s governing body has made the changes to clear entry space for more teams, after 36 countries took part in the 10 track events at Beijing.

Cowgirls pitcher throws gem against Lava Bears Bulletin staff report PRINEVILLE — Crook County freshman Miranda Smith limited Bend High to three hits on Thursday as the Cowgirls defeated the Lava Bears 5-2 in Intermountain Conference softball action.

PONTE VEDRA BEACH, Fla. — Tiger Woods hit one tee shot that went 190 yards and barely reached the fairway. He hit another shot smack into the middle of a sawgrass plant, the ball only seen by standing over it and suspended a few inches off the ground. Both times, he scratched out a par and wound up with a 2-under 70 in The Players Championship. That’s usually not a bad score to start out this tournament. Just not on Thursday. J.B. Holmes and Robert Allenby shared the lead at 66, which didn’t give them much separation. Twenty players were separated by two shots at the top of the leaderboard. Conditions were so benign, and greens were so soft, that more than half the field broke par on the Stadium Course. And that’s not all. The 36 players who shot in the 60s were the most for the opening round since 1994, and the average score (71.1) was the lowest in 17 years in the first round. “I only made three birdies today,” said Woods, who didn’t make a bogey until the final hole when his 5-wood took a hard hop into the water. “I had myself a few chances in there to make some putts, make some birdies, and didn’t really do it.” Masters champion Phil Mickelson shot the same score, in much more conventional fashion. He felt about the same way. “Two under is not what I wanted today,” Mickelson said. “But there is a round in the mid 60s. If I can shoot that tomorrow, I’ll get right back in it.” Holmes played bogey-free for his 66. The only time he came close to a bogey was at No. 10, when he hit over the green and did well to chip to 15 feet before making the par putt. “It was a fun day, one of those rounds where everything was going pretty good,” Holmes said. “It’s kind of one of those rounds where it’s not easy, but it felt pretty easy.” Allenby played in the afternoon, when the breeze kicked up, and only had one lapse with a three-putt on the par-3 eighth. “Greens were a bit slow out there, definitely quite soft after the rain that we’ve had the last couple of days,” Allenby said. “It definitely made it very accessible, some of those flags. I’m happy with the start, just happy to be amongst it.” It was a big crowd. Francesco Molinari of Italy
had a chance to join the leaders until he chopped up the par-5 ninth hole for a bogey and joined the large group at 68. Those at 69 included Jim Furyk and Vijay Singh, along with Davis Love III, who showed that even a benign Sawgrass still has some bite. He was tied for the lead until making bogeys on the last three holes. With scrutiny higher than after the worst tournament of his career, Woods settled down after a shaky start and eased speculation that he could miss consecutive cuts for the first time in his career. A week ago at Quail Hollow, Woods had his second-highest round (79) and the worst 36-hole score (153) of his career to miss the cut by eight shots. Then came practice rounds that didn’t look much better. “I’ve felt like I’ve done some good work this week, even though reports are I was hitting all over the lot,” Woods said. “But I was working on a few things. I was very comfortable with what I was working toward, and I was very excited about what was happening. It was just a matter of doing it in competition. And I did it today.” A few pars saved the day — one after a hooked tee shot into the trees, another when he fanned a shot to the right into the bunker on No. 4, then made an 8-foot par putt after hitting another bunker. And nothing looked worse than a 3-wood that he popped up on No. 7, barely reaching the fairway and having to hit a 5wood for his second shot on a par 4. He got up-and-down for par, and two holes later, gave a light but meaningful fist pump when he hit 5-wood to a tucked green on the par-5 ninth to 18 feet for a two-putt birdie. “It takes time to get into the rhythm of competing, and it takes tournaments,” Woods said. “And I haven’t had a lot of tournaments under my belt.” Also on Thursday: Four share lead at Italian Open TURIN, Italy — Scotland’s Paul Lawrie shot a 5-under 67 in rainy conditions for a share of the lead in the suspended first round of the Italian Open. The start of the tournament was delayed two hours to repair damage to the waterlogged course. Lawrie was among the late finishers before play was halted because of darkness with 30 golfers still on the course. Australia’s Marcus Fraser and Englishmen Graeme Storm and Robert Rock also opened with 67s, all playing in calmer conditions. Matteo Manassero, the 17year-old Italian star making his pro debut, shot a 70.

Orioles no longer a threat or a draw at Camden Yards By David Ginsburg The Associated Press
BALTIMORE — During their opening homestand this season, the Baltimore Orioles lost to the Tampa Bay Rays before a listless crowd of 9,129, the smallest in the history of Camden Yards. Two weeks later, more than half the 17,248 fans in attendance backed the visiting New York Yankees during their 8-3 victory. A few days after that, thousands of red-clad backers cheered for the Red Sox in Boston’s second-favorite stadium. Wow, how times have changed. Baseball teams use to dread coming to Baltimore. Back in their heyday, the Orioles had a star at every position and a fan in every seat. Wild Bill Hagy worked the crowd into a frenzy with his antics in Section
34 at Memorial Stadium, and more often than not, the home team won. “You had to deal with guys like (Jim) Palmer, (Mike) Flanagan, (Scott) McGregor and (Mike) Cuellar,” recalled Jerry Remy, who played in the AL from 1975-84. “You go down the list — Brooks (Robinson) at third base, (Mark) Belanger at short. It wasn’t a fun place to come play.” Those players were gone by the time the Orioles moved to Camden Yards in 1992, but the opposition still had to cope with Cal Ripken Jr. and the enthusiasm generated by sellout crowds at the new ballpark. Baltimore reached the playoffs as a wild-card team in 1996 and drew 3.7 million fans in 1997 while winning the AL East with a wire-to-wire run. Given the state of the franchise today, it would be difficult convincing some
people that Baltimore used to be a baseball town. “Some nights you get a lot of New York fans and very few Orioles fans. They sell their tickets,” said former Oriole Terry Crowley, now the team’s hitting coach. The team got off to a 2-16 start this year in what appears to be Baltimore’s 13th consecutive losing season. Over the past 12 seasons the Orioles have tried everything to turn it around — with absolutely no success. “I don’t know about that Oriole Way they used to talk about all the time,” said Remy, who played for Boston from 1978-84. “It was very much like the Dodger Way, and somewhere, somehow, that got lost along the way.” The Red Sox haven’t had a losing record at Camden Yards since 1998, and
their fans walk around the stadium like they own the place. When Kevin Youkilis steps to the plate for Boston, they aren’t saying “Boooo!” They’re saying, “Yooooooook!” “It’s not weird because it’s an easy trip, a nice place to come and they know they can get tickets,” said Remy, now a broadcaster for the Red Sox. “It’s kind of fun for us, really, to know you have so many fans coming down to support you. “It’s a trip I’d take if I was a fan.” Baltimore is not alone in its struggles. The Pittsburgh Pirates, Toronto Blue Jays and Cleveland Indians are going through a similar ordeal. Like the Orioles, they were once successful on the field and at the gate. And they all are playing bad baseball at a time when
fans are trying to cope with a poor economy. After enduring years of poor drafts and acquisition of past-their-prime players such as Sammy Sosa, Will Clark and Joe Carter, many Orioles fans have abandoned hope. Those who have stuck around are still waiting to see Baltimore’s first winning team of the new millennium. “If you love your team, you love them through good times and bad times, and you stick with them,” Orioles manager Dave Trembley said. “Because sooner or later this team will turn it around, and you want to be there when that happens. And you understand that in life, nothing comes easy. You will go through it, and you will struggle. And how you handle it says a lot about how you’ll handle it when we turn it around.”

Canadiens rally in third to even series with Pens The Associated Press MONTREAL — Feeling fortunate to be trailing Pittsburgh by only one goal through two periods of Game 4, the Montreal Canadiens wasted no time taking full advantage of their final 20 minutes. Maxim Lapierre and Brian Gionta scored 1:33 apart early in the third period to lift Montreal to a 3-2 win over the Penguins on Thursday night in Game 4, tying the Eastern Conference series at 2. Jaroslav Halak stopped 33 shots, and Tom Pyatt also scored for the Canadiens, who trailed 2-1 through 40 minutes while being outshot 25-9. Maxime Talbot and Chris Kunitz scored 1:51 apart early in the first period to put Pittsburgh ahead. Pyatt had netted his first career playoff goal 2:34 in to put Montreal in front. Lapierre drew the Canadiens even at 2 with a wraparound goal 2:20 into the third. “We knew in that second intermission that we probably had played our worst two periods of the playoffs,” said Gionta, who put Montreal ahead with his fifth goal at 3:27. “So to be down one goal, we knew we had a chance to steal a game. We came out in the third period and got some

Silenced for nearly two full periods, the home crowd roared back to life after Lapierre swung around behind the net and whipped the puck off the back off Marc-Andre Fleury’s right pad for the tying goal. The fans had even more to cheer about moments later when Gionta’s centering pass from the right side went in off Penguins defenseman Kris Letang’s skate. “It was pretty loud,” Montreal defenseman Hal Gill said. “It was fun. That’s a fun place to win and come back like that.” Also on Thursday: Red Wings. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 7 Sharks . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1 DETROIT — Johan Franzen had a natural hat trick in a 3:26 span of the first period, scored a fourth goal in the third, and set a Red Wings playoff record with six points as Detroit stayed alive with a rout of San Jose in Game 4 of the Western Conference semifinals.

Magic win, take 2-0 lead against Hawks By Antonio Gonzalez The Associated Press
ORLANDO, Fla. — Maybe all the Orlando Magic needed after a slow start was a slap in the face. Dwight Howard came back from a bloody nose to finish with 29 points and 17 rebounds, and the Magic beat the Atlanta Hawks 112-98 on Thursday night to take a 2-0 lead in the Eastern Conference semifinal series. Not even a hard hit could slow the Magic’s Superman. “I’m human. It’s not like I’m built of metal,” Howard said. “They did to me like they did the Wolverine. I bleed. I break bones.” Not this time. Vince Carter had 24 points with some big shots late and Rashard Lewis finished with 20 points, leading Orlando’s 192 run in the fourth quarter. The perennially poor free-throw shooting Howard also was 13 for 18 from the line. “Every time I step up there,” Howard said, “just believing it was going in.”
The Hawks avoided embarrassment but not another road playoff loss. After a 43-point defeat in the opener, the Hawks led early but head home still searching for a way to stop the Magic’s 12-game winning streak. Al Horford led Atlanta with 24 points, and Joe Johnson had 19 points. Game 3 is Saturday in Atlanta. “Go home and win. We’ve been pretty good on our floor,” Hawks coach Mike Woodson said. “They took care of their business on their home floor. We’re going to see what we’re made of.” The Hawks finally drew first blood, it just wasn’t a hard enough hit. Howard made a layup as he was slapped in the face inadvertently by Horford to start the third quarter, the blood pouring from the Magic center’s nose. Howard shot the free throw — and missed — with plugs in his nostrils, holding back laughter, and then left for about 2 minutes so trainers could stop the bleeding.
“I think he held his composure well,” Magic coach Stan Van Gundy said. “He took some hard hits on the offensive end of the floor, that’s led to some frustration and at times retaliation on his part. He got hit damn hard tonight, blows that would have dropped a lot of people, certainly me.” The Hawks could only stop things temporarily. The play started an 11-2 run that erased Atlanta’s early ninepoint lead and put the Magic ahead 62-59. Jameer Nelson finished with 20 points and also made a three-pointer as time expired in the third quarter, a demoralizing blow after Jamal Crawford’s three-pointer on the other end. It put the Magic ahead by one. “That was a huge momentum boost for us,” Van Gundy said. Then they took off. A flurry of Magic threepointers sent the Hawks packing with another loss to their Southeast Division rival, which has won eight of the last nine games in the series, including the playoffs.
Continued from D1 Yet the 36-year-old former street-fighting Internet sensation is sticking with MMA — and he actually decided to get good at it. “I never doubted I could do it, because I knew me,” Slice said in a phone interview from Montreal, where he’s preparing for his second UFC fight against former NFL fringe player Matt Mitrione on the undercard of UFC 113 on Saturday night. “I know I’m really willing to give my trainers and coaches 100 percent of myself,” Slice added. “I’m willing to make sacrifices and commitments, and they’re going to get 110 percent out of me. I never thought about taking the easy way. That’s not me.” Slice’s real name is Kevin Ferguson, but he’s always been called Kimbo by his friends — guys named Chino, Disco and Taco. The erstwhile strip-club bouncer with a penchant for filming his spectacular knockouts became an Internet sensation several years ago, back when Internet sensations were quite rare. He parlayed his heavy hands and distinctive look — a full beard, a thick body and that menacing glare — into an MMA career that exploded when he appeared on CBS for the defunct EliteXC promotion. Yet Slice was a target of ridicule inside MMA, where longtime martial artists could only laugh at his skills in jiujitsu, wrestling and kickboxing, among the sport’s several disciplines. Slice was just a puncher, and even UFC president Dana White made fun of him. White also realized Slice never pretended to be anything but a crowd-pleasing brawler, and fighters who actually met him invariably were impressed by his humility. Punching obviously is Slice’s strength, and he could have parlayed his CBS success into a career in boxing, where much more one-dimensional athletes than Slice can become consistent earners. Gary Shaw was among the promoters who were eager to sign
Hotshots Continued from D1 Hassan Stewart, a 6-foot-3inch guard who played at NCAA Division III Hamilton College in New York, led the Hotshots in both games, scoring 30 points in a 125-103 victory last Saturday and 29 points in a 126-100 win on Sunday. Other Hotshots players include Jordan Gregg, a 6-7 guard from NAIA Eastern Oregon University, and Justin Lockart, a 6-4 guard from NAIA Avila University in Kansas City, Mo. The remainder of the Hotshots’ 20-game schedule will be played away or at neutral sites, according to team owner Mikal Duilio, who is also commissioner of the IBL. The team will again be based in Portland, as it was last spring

In this May 31, 2008, photo, fighter Kimbo Slice, right, throws a punch at James Thompson during the second round of their EliteXC heavyweight mixed-martial arts bout in Newark, N.J. Slice now fights in the Ultimate Fighting Championship. him after EliteXC died — but after consulting with White, Slice chose a tougher route back into the spotlight, signing with the UFC and dedicating his life to justifying his fame. “My heart went into it,” Slice said. “Everything went into it. I just decided whatever the fight game has in store for me next, I’m going to go after it. I’m not afraid of getting in there to fight. I’m not afraid to get knocked out, and with that mindset, my opponents have a lot to worry about.” After agreeing to participate in the UFC’s popular reality show that doubles as an academy for aspiring fighters, he signed up to get the coaching he never received during his unlikely rise. Coach Ricardo Liborio at American Top Team has a long history of developing well-rounded fighters, and Slice has been at work improving his ground game and martial arts abilities for nearly a year. Although his fame is unlikely to die down as long as he keeps his beard, Slice lives a fairly focused life, devoting his time outside the octagon to his six children. “My life has always been kind of calm, because I always respect everyone,” Slice said. “From the street to the cage, I live by the respect creed. I don’t walk around
with a chip on my shoulder. I love life, and provide for my family. I’ve got three little sons, and that’s who I’m living for.” Those who have seen Slice in training say he’s making dramatic improvements. In his UFC debut last December, he beat Houston Alexander by unanimous decision despite Alexander’s apparent unwillingness to engage him — perhaps a remnant of Slice’s ferocious reputation from his streetbrawling days. Slice actually is more experienced and polished than Mitrione, an MMA newcomer who also appeared on “The Ultimate Fighter.” Slice is likely to win if he shows off his improved technique. And ever humble, Slice isn’t making any bold proclamations about taking over the UFC. He’s simply enjoying every stop on another remarkable ride. “The guys who are holding the titles, heavyweight and light heavyweight, these guys are awesome,” Slice said. “I’m really just having happy days in the midst — being among them, fighting on the undercards, just contributing to the UFC and the sport. That’s really what I want to do. I’m not looking ahead to winning a title or anything like that. I’m just enjoying each fight as it comes.”
when it played just two games in Central Oregon, both in Warm Springs. The Hotshots, who finished 6-14 in 2009, have been in existence since 2005, the IBL’s first year. Duilio said the long-term plan for future seasons is for the Hotshots to play all 10 of their home games at the 5,000-seat Hooker Creek arena in Redmond. In seasons 2005 through 2008, the team played at various high schools around Central Oregon. The team’s new head coach for this season is Osa Esene, who played professionally in Germany and now works for Court Sessions, a basketball training company based in Portland. Tickets for tonight’s and Saturday’s games at the fairgrounds’ Hooker Creek Event Center are $10 for general admission, and $7 for seniors (age 55 and older)
and youth (17 and younger). For more information, visit www.iblhoopsonline or call 503-380-4539.
