BIOMASS: POLICY, FIRES AND FUNDING
More forest debris used for energy? Senate may clear way
Ground-up natural debris from FireFree events was generated from yard waste Monday. It will be trucked to biomass plants across Oregon and Washington, and burned as fuel.
By Keith Chu The Bulletin
WASHINGTON — The latest U.S. Senate climate change bill may be a sign that federal lawmakers are beginning to accept a role for forest biomass in U.S. energy policy, according to a range of forest policy experts. Under existing federal law, fuel made with woody debris from federal lands doesn’t count as renewable energy. A bill introduced by Sens. John Kerry, D-Mass., and Joseph Lieberman, I-Conn., this month would allow material from most federal forests, except for roadless areas and wilderness, to count as renewable power under the cap on greenhouse gasses that the bill creates. It follows a measure passed last year in the U.S. House, that included a similar, but slightly stricter, biomass provision. Taken together, said Jimmie Powell, energy team lead for The Nature Conservancy, and there’s clear evidence of a shift in favor of more forest biomass. “It’s pretty surely the case that if Congress enacts an energy bill or climate change bill in the near-term it will allow more biomass material to be used than under current law,” Powell said. Biomass plants have been proposed for La Pine, Prineville and Warm Springs, but problems financing the projects and securing a stable stock of fuel have held up the plans. Conventional wisdom on Capitol Hill says it’s unlikely that Kerry-Lieberman will move forward this year, given the upcoming Congressional elections and the defection of U.S. Sen. Lindsay Graham, R-S.C. Graham withdrew his support for the measure to protest Democrats’ decision to pursue immigration reform sometime this year. The bill is clearly more favorable toward biomass power than current law, said Phil Chang, program manager for the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council and local biomass advocate.

Small trees and brush pulled from high-risk fire areas to be hauled to biomass plants, fueled by stimulus money
Photos by Rob Kerr / The Bulletin
Deschutes County employees grind up branches and other vegetative debris collected during a FireFree event Monday at the Northwest Simpson Avenue landfill site in Bend. The county and the Oregon Department of Forestry have received a stimulus grant to chip up 22,000 green tons of biomass and truck it elsewhere to be used as fuel.
By Kate Ramsayer The Bulletin
Stimulus funds to provide fuel for biomass plants could also help communities across Central Oregon become a little more resistant to wildfires. Deschutes County and the Oregon Department of Forestry have received about $675,000 for the biomass project, said Deschutes County forester Joe Stutler. The money will go toward hauling away the small trees, brush and debris crews clear out of backyards and other private lands, and then chipping up that material and trucking it to power plants to generate clean energy.

“Our task is, through our hazardous fuels reduction programs, to create biomass,” Stutler said. And the goal is to use the stimulus
funds to chip up 22,000 green tons of biomass — the equivalent of 773 truckloads. With the stimulus funds, contractors should be able to double the number of acres around homes and roadways that will be treated this year, Stutler said. “We treated over 1,000 acres last year; we’ll do about 2,000 this year,” he said, adding that one contractor estimated the extra work through December 2011 would allow the hiring of 40 more people. Other grants allow the county to hire contractors for the initial cleanup of private lands — cutting down small trees, mowing brush and more. See Fuel / A4
3 Sisters schools shut doors this spring after 2 were evicted By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin
The Oregon Department of Education has received all the student records that until Saturday were locked in a Clackamas office building, preventing some students — including some from Central Oregon — from graduating and others from transferring from AllPrep charter school programs. State officials entered the offices on Saturday at 8 a.m., according to Cindy Hunt, a legal coordinator in the Oregon Department of Education who spoke during an Oregon House of Representatives education committee hearing on Monday. Spokesman Morgan Allen confirmed the records were delivered to the state offices on Monday. But some students’ records may not be delivered to their home school district until September because the more than 1,600 files were in disarray and need sorting. It’s the latest twist in a months-long drama between ODE and EdChoices, a company handling administrative duties for 15 AllPrep charter schools in Oregon and Washington that serve more than 1,400 students, including three Sisters charters and online education programs run through the Fossil and Paisley school districts. The Sisters schools all closed in March and April after two were evicted from their buildings for failing to pay rent. EdChoices was evicted March 15 for failing to pay rent on the 10,000-square-foot, three-story Clackamas facility, which included AllPrep offices. The Oregon Department of Justice and the state education department are both investigating the companies. Hunt told the committee that AllPrep is not a real company. “It doesn’t really exist legally as AllPrep,” Hunt said. “It’s not a nonprofit. It’s just something that appears in documents.” She told committee members she’s still unclear on how EdChoices and AllPrep are related, because she’s not seen contracts to explain their relationship.

WINFIELD, Mo. — Mexican drug smugglers are increasingly peddling a form of ultra-potent heroin that sells for as little as $10 a bag and is so pure it can kill unsuspecting users instantly, sometimes before they even remove the syringe. An review of drug overdose data shows that so-called “black tar” heroin — named for its dark, gooey consistency — and other forms of the drug are contributing to a spike in overdose deaths across the nation and attracting a new generation of users who are caught off guard by its potency. “We found people who snorted it lying facedown with the straw lying next to them,” said Patrick O’Neil, coroner in Chicago’s Will County.

WASHINGTON — The top American commander in the Middle East has ordered a broad expansion of secret military activity in an effort to disrupt militant groups or counter threats in Iran, Saudi Arabia, Somalia and other countries in the region, according to defense officials and military documents.

tile nations in the Middle East, Central Asia and the Horn of Africa to gather intelligence and build ties with local forces. Officials said the order also permits reconnaissance that could pave the way for possible military strikes in Iran if tensions over its nuclear ambitions escalate. While the Bush administration had approved some clandestine military activities far from designated war zones, the new order is intended to make such efforts more systematic and long term, officials said.

Comcast, the nation’s largest cable TV provider, is offering a 30-day money-back guarantee on all services to unhappy customers and a $20 credit if the technician shows up late. It also is testing a service that allows customers to call to get the technician’s estimated time of arrival.
Cable firms get picture: Treat customers better By Deborah Yao The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA — Cable customers have fumed as they waited in vain for the cable guy to show up. When he did come, sometimes it took multiple visits to fix outages. Some customers grappled with billing mistakes that took months to resolve. And cable prices went up every year. Now it may be the cable customer’s turn for revenge. Cable TV operators are trying to treat their customers better. Consumers now can get a 30-day money-back guarantee from at least two major cable companies. Soon subscribers might set specific times for technician visits and get their orders confirmed in writing. These sound like simple or even obvious steps, but they address longtime complaints about the cable TV business. Cable companies are forced to do it because of intensifying competition from satellite TV and phone companies that offer video — and from people disconnecting subscription TV services altogether to watch videos online. And people are leaving. In 2006, cable TV companies had 68.5 million video customers. The number fell to 63.3 million in 2009, according to research firm In-Stat. “People have a bad opinion of their customer service,” said Mike Paxton, principal analyst at In-Stat. “Until (cable) started losing customers, there was no pressure.” It won’t be easy to change a poor reputation that was captured in a 1996 “Seinfeld” episode in which Kramer retaliates against his cable company by telling the technician he’ll be home between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. but then doesn’t show up. In 2007, a Virginia woman was so upset at Comcast Corp.’s cus-
“People have a bad opinion of their customer service. Until (cable) started losing customers, there was no pressure.” — Mike Paxton, research analyst tomer service that she smashed a keyboard with a hammer in a Comcast service center. Cable’s customer satisfaction ratings have been among the worst of any industry. In the American Customer Satisfaction Index, based on surveys of U.S. households, the four largest cable TV providers — Comcast, Time Warner Cable Inc., Cox Communications Inc. and Charter Communications Inc. — have averaged 59 on a scale of 1 to 100 since 2004, even with some improvement in this year’s figures. In the last comparable rankings, cable TV came in below airlines, a business with byzantine fare rules, new fees for baggage and horror stories of passengers trapped for hours on planes. First cable TV companies tried appealing to customers with discounts. Although overall cable service prices were rising, the companies offered bundles of TV, Internet and phone plans, and threw in some freebies and other promotions. But that only slowed customer defections and didn’t halt them. Now cable companies are trying to do more.
Service steps Comcast, the nation’s largest cable TV provider, is making incremental changes that it hopes will collectively improve its reputation. It’s offering a 30-day money-back guarantee on all services to unhappy customers and a $20 credit if the technician shows up late, even if he had called to say
he’d be late. It also is testing a service that lets customers call to get the technician’s estimated time of arrival. Embarrassing incidents such as the hammer episode prompted Comcast to undergo a top-to-bottom assessment of its customer service. Tina Waters, who was named Comcast’s first senior vice president of human performance last November, says onequarter of service agents’ performance reviews are now devoted to customer feedback. Cox, the country’s third-largest cable company, is testing the idea of letting customers set service appointments at specific times rather than two-hour windows. The trial is limited to New England and only for the first appointment of the day, at 8 a.m. If successful, the service will be rolled out nationally and eventually to cover the entire day.
E-mail information This year, Charter Communications Inc. will start giving customers a written confirmation of their orders by e-mail, upon request. The e-mail will spell out the cost of the order, explain the installation process and describe other services. Usually, customers wait for their first bill and hope they don’t have to dispute charges. “No more scribbled notes on a pad by the phone,” said spokeswoman Anita Lamont. That would be welcome news to Marc Pachtman, a lawyer in Boothwyn, Pa., who tussled with Comcast for about 10 months
over several issues, including charges on his bill that were higher than the cable package he thought he ordered. Pachtman said he was charged $51 for cable TV and $46 for Internet after being told it would be $45 for TV and $35 for Internet. He also paid $42 a month for phone service, but Comcast got that right. Eventually, after several calls to Comcast, he got a refund and a six-month promotional plan that combined TV, Internet and phone services for $94 a month, down from around $140 he had been paying. “I had to do a lot of jumping up and down,” Pachtman said. “If they would be forced to confirm things in writing, it should standardize their programs to the point so there’s no variation to what customer representatives can say.” It doesn’t help that while there are Federal Communications Commission standards for cable customer service, other cable regulations vary based on who is enforcing them. Depending on the location, that could be a state commission, a city council or another body. Such inconsistent standards, and a near-monopoly on TV service in the areas that cable companies serve, have let them get away with treating customers indifferently for years. Recently, though, cable companies such as Comcast, Charter and Time Warner Cable have been reaching out to customers through Twitter and other social networking sites to find complaints and resolve problems. That impressed Steve Curtin of Denver, who tweeted about his Comcast Internet service conking out last spring before calling the cable company. A cable agent reached out to him and got him back online within half an hour. “I was quite surprised,” he said.

Frugal but lazy? Sit back and watch the savings add up By Gregory Karp The (Allentown, Pa.) Morning Call
Don’t feel like clipping coupons? Unwilling to sacrifice lifestyle to save a buck? Unmotivated to budget? No problem. Tap into the world of lazy savings, set-it-and-forget-it ways to keep more cash in your pocket without depriving yourself: Get dining rewards: Register your credit and debit cards at iDine.com for free and get 5 percent cash back for eating at participating restaurants. No coupons or gift certificates necessary. IDine.com also offers paid memberships for more cash back. Join a credit union: Almost everybody qualifies for a credit union, and they usually have lower fees and loan rates than traditional banks. Go to culookup.com to find one near you. Use retail loyalty cards: Sign up for a card at frequently visited supermarkets and retailers. Then shop as usual and watch the savings and goodies pile up. Often
you don’t need to carry the card. Cashiers can usually look it up by phone number. Or, combine loyalty-card bar codes with such tools as CardStar, mycardstar.com, which has smart phone apps and a wallet-size card via a partnership with KeyRingThing.com. Buy store brands: Reach for the house brands. They’re so much better than they used to be; no coupons or comparisonshopping needed. Or peruse the weekly supermarket flier and buy multiples of whatever interests you. They are almost always great deals. Along those lines is a tip from Myscha Theriault, co-author of “10,001 Ways to Live Large on a Small Budget.” Get half off sunscreen by purchasing body lotion with sunscreen included. Use rewards credit cards: If you don’t carry a balance on your credit cards, use a rewards card that pays you back, preferably in cash. Then shop as you would and reap the rewards. Compare
cards online at such sites as CardRatings.com, LowCards.com and IndexCreditCards.com. Get browser add-ons: Several Web browser toolbars and plugins can help you save money shopping online, including CouponCabin.com and Billeo.com. One of the slickest is at GetInvisibleHand.com. Its toolbar is hidden until you visit a product page. Then it appears and tells you whether this is the best price or where you can get it cheaper. It doesn’t include shipping prices, but it’s passive price comparison for the truly lazy. Pay online and automatically: Online and auto-pay options can save money, especially by preventing late fees. Buy fewer stamps and envelopes, which is a hassle and expense. You might get a discount. Allstate insurance gives up to a 5 percent discount in most states for paying with automatic bank withdrawals. Raise your retirement contribution 1 point: You won’t notice the difference. And if you do it on-
line, it might take one minute. Repeat every time you get a raise.
On the newest social networking Web sites, you are what you buy: A user named ilona spent $6.41 at Chipotle. AshleyMarie got 1 song from iTunes for $1.29 (“Can’t Be Tamed” by Miley Cyrus). User suchitagarwal spent $464.44 at Sta Travel Inc. (“Eurail Global Pass for 15 days!”) So read recent updates on Blippy, a sort of Twitter for shopping that allows users to automatically broadcast to the rest of the world what they bought using credit and debit cards. The founders of the network and rival site Swipely say the purpose is to reveal the stories behind America’s stuff and explore how our purchases reflect our personalities. Are we Starbucks or Dunkin’ Donuts, Target or Wal-Mart, Payless or Prada? “Part of it, for a lot of people, is simply: ‘I shop; therefore I am,’” said Paco Underhill, a consumer researcher and author of the books “What Women Want” and “Why We Buy.” “The ability to consume is part of what their identities are based on.” But privacy advocates say that users are divulging a dangerous level of personal financial information — Blippy has reported one security breach — and that the sites could become a gold mine for marketers seeking detailed data on potential customers. Concern about advertiser access has spurred a backlash against social networking, with sites such as Pleaserobme.com exposing the level of personal information on Twitter and users launching a viral campaign to give up Facebook. “You’re really talking about giving up your innermost secrets to the wider world, and that has consequences,” said Jeff Chester, executive director of the Center for Digital Democracy. Five months after Blippy was publicly launched, its users share $1.5 million in transactions every week, and the company says that amount is growing rapidly. Members can give Blippy access to their credit and debit card accounts as well as 15 other online accounts, such as iTunes, Netflix or Amazon. The site compiles a history of purchases, some dating back several years, and automatically records new ones. Members can choose which purchases to make public on their profiles, but the site’s default setting is to share them all with the world. Blippy co-founder Philip Kaplan calls this “passive sharing” because members don’t have to sign in to use the site; Blippy already knows what you’re doing with every swipe. And friends, or strangers, can join your network and watch your money leave your wallet. “The thing that makes Blippy really fun are the unexpected conversations that happen around things that you’re buying,” he said. “It’s a whole different dimension from what we’re used to learning about our friends.”

A contractor operates an oil skimmer Monday near a marsh impacted from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in Pass a l’Outre, La.
Oil spill hits home, spreading dismay By Campbell Robertson, Clifford Krauss and John M. Broder New York Times News Service
PORT FOURCHON, La. — For weeks, it was a disaster in abstraction, a threat floating somewhere out there. Not anymore. In the last week, the oil slick in the Gulf of Mexico has revealed itself to an angry and desperate public, smearing tourist beaches, washing onto the shorelines of sleepy coastal communities and oozing into marshy bays that fishermen have worked in for generations. It has even announced its arrival on the Louisiana coast with a fittingly ugly symbol: brown pelicans, the state bird, dyed with crude. More than a month has passed since the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig blew up, spewing immeasurable quantities of oil into the Gulf of Mexico and frustrating all efforts to contain it. The billowing plume of undersea oil and water has thwarted the industry’s well-control efforts and driven government officials to impotent rage. It has demonstrated the enduring laxity of federal regulation of offshore operations and has shown the government to be almost wholly at the mercy of BP, the company leasing the rig, to provide the technology, personnel and equipment to stop the bleeding well. Several things have become clear over the past month. Neither BP nor the government was prepared for an oil release of this size or at this depth. The federal Minerals Management Service, charged with overseeing offshore
BP defies EPA, sticks with dispersant In a tense standoff, BP continued to spray a product called Corexit in the Gulf of Mexico on Monday to break up a vast oil spill, despite a demand by federal regulators that it switch to something less toxic. The Environmental Protection Agency had set a Sunday
oil development, has for too long served as a handmaiden of industry. Laws governing deepwater drilling have fallen far behind the technology and the attendant risks. And no one can estimate the extent of the economic and environmental damage or how long it will last. The recriminations over the performance of BP and the Obama administration could subside if the latest effort to kill the well, now scheduled for Wednesday morning, succeeds. In a maneuver called a “top kill,” BP is planning to pump heavy drilling fluids twice the density of water through two narrow lines into the blowout preventer to essentially plug the runaway well. “The top kill operation is not a guarantee of success,” warned Doug Suttles, BP’s chief operating officer, who added that it had never been tried before in deep water under high pressures. Shortly after officials lambasted his company in Galliano, Tony Hayward, the chief executive of BP, invited reporters to follow as he walked along the beach at Port Fourchon, which was crowded with workers in yellow Hazmat suits picking up shovelfuls of chocolate-colored crude off the sand. Asked about the top kill, Hayward acknowledged that it was far from a sure fix. “We rate the probability of success between 60 percent and 70 percent,” he said. “Beyond that, there is a third and fourth and fifth option around both containment and elimination.”
night deadline for BP to stop using two dispersants from the Corexit line of products. The oil company has defended its use of Corexit and taken issue with the methods the agency used to estimate its toxicity. At a news conference Monday afternoon, the EPA administrator, Lisa P. Jackson, said that she was “dissatisfied with BP’s response” and that she
Federal regulators faulted in inquiry WASHINGTON — Federal regulators responsible for oversight of drilling in the Gulf of Mexico allowed industry officials several years ago to fill in their own inspection reports in pencil — and then turned them over to the regulators, who later traced over them in pen before submitting the reports to the agency, according to an inspector general’s report to be released this week. The report, which describes inappropriate behavior by the staff at the Minerals Management Service from 2005 to 2007, also found that inspectors had accepted meals, tickets to sporting events and gifts from at least one oil company while they were overseeing the industry. In mid-2008, a minerals agency employee conducted four inspections on drilling platforms when he was also negotiating a job with the drilling company, a cover letter to the report said. And an inspector from the Lake Charles office in Louisiana admitted to investigators that he had used crystal meth and may have been under its influence during an inspection. — New York Times News Service
had ordered the oil giant to take “immediate steps to scale back the use of dispersants.” Jackson called BP’s safety data on dispersants “insufficient” and said government scientists would conduct their own scientific tests to decide which dispersant was best to use. — New York Times News Service
FBI reports crime rates down for third year, despite recession By Pete Yost The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Crime in the United States dropped dramatically in 2009, bucking a historical trend that links rising crime rates to economic woes. Property crimes and violent offenses each declined about 5 percent, the FBI said Monday, citing reports from law enforcement coast to coast. It was the third straight year of declines, and this year’s drops were even steeper than those of 2007 and 2008, despite the recession. There were words of caution
from experts. “It’s fabulous news, but I would draw an analogy to global warming: Even if you believe the long-term trend is increasing temperatures, it doesn’t mean you can’t have a cold year,” said Jonathan Caulkins, a professor of public policy at Carnegie Mellon University’s Heinz College. Last year’s decline was 5.5 percent for violent crime, including 7.2 percent for murders. The rate for property crime was down 4.9 percent, the seventh consecutive drop for that category. The declines had been a more modest 1.9
percent for violent crime and 0.8 percent for property crime in 2008 and 0.7 percent and 1.4 percent respectively the previous year. Long term, said Northeastern University criminology professor James Alan Fox, “there is a connection between an economic downturn and crime: Budget cuts create significant challenges in keeping crime rates low. We have increasing numbers of at-risk youth in the population, and they need services. We need to reinvest in crime prevention or else the good news we see today could evaporate.”
ues to enjoy a vocal following, helped in the U.S. by endorsements from celebrities like Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy Wakefield was the first researcher to publish a peer-reviewed study suggesting a connection between autism and the vaccine for measles, mumps and rubella. Legions of parents abandoned the vaccine, leading to a resurgence of measles in Western countries where it had been mostly stamped out. There are outbreaks across Europe
every year and sporadic outbreaks in the U.S. “That is Andrew Wakefield’s legacy,” said Paul Offit, chief of infectious diseases at the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia. “The hospitalizations and deaths of children from measles who could have easily avoided the disease.” Wakefield’s discredited theories had a tremendous impact in the U.S., Offit said, adding: “He gave heft to the notion that vaccines in general cause autism.”
U.S. backs South Korea’s tactics against North after ship incident By Jean H. Lee The Associated Press
SEOUL, South Korea — South Korea won U.S. support Monday for slashing trade to North Korea and vowed to haul its communist neighbor before the U.N. Security Council for a torpedo attack that sank a South Korean warship and killed 46 sailors. U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said he expects the Security Council to take action against North Korea, calling the evidence that the North was responsible “overwhelming and deeply troubling.” The U.S. and South Korea are planning two major military exercises off the Korean Peninsula in a display of force intended “to deter future ag-

A local stands near a small Rosewood tree that has been gashed multiple times in Masoala National Park, near Maroantsetra, Madagascar. In the past year, the illicit trade in a scarce species of rosewood trees has increased by a factor of at least 25.
Tottering Madagascar’s rare rosewoods are cut at an increasing rate By Barry Bearak New York Times News Service
MAROANSETRA, Madagascar — Exploiting a political crisis, Malagasy timber barons are robbing this island nation of its sylvan heritage, illegally cutting down scarce species of rosewood trees in poorly protected national parks and exporting most of the valuable logs to China. For a decade or more, this illicit trade existed on a small scale. But in the past year, it has increased at least 25-fold, according to environmental groups that have been tracking the outgoing shipments. They estimate the value of trees felled this past year at $167 million or more. This accelerated plunder of the rainforest coincided with a military coup in March 2009. Andry Rajoelina, the mayor of Antananarivo, Madagascar’s capital, was installed as president and since has led a weakened government that is unable — and perhaps unwilling — to stop the trafficking. Madagascar, the world’s fourth largest island, is a place of extraordinary botanical abundance, with perhaps 14,000 species of plants, 90 percent of which exist nowhere else. Repeatedly, the government has announced new policies to halt the trade. “The exporters are strong, but so are we,” Prime Minister Ca-
Fuel Continued from A1 But the stimulus grants will help to pick up material from the work-site, grind it up and truck it to one of about six locations in Oregon and Washington where it’s burned as fuel. And that frees up more money to do treatments to reduce fire risk on private lands, said Katie Lighthall with the Bend-based Project Wildfire, which helps implement the Central Oregon’s Community Wildfire Protection Programs. “The biomass grant that the county got will give us an opportunity to implement more projects on the ground that are
Climate Continued from A1 But Chang said the law would actually exclude material from projects to clear out underbrush in old-growth stands, including the Glaze Meadow restoration project north of Sisters. “The way that I read this language, it does not sound like that material would be eligible as a renewable fuel source under this bill, despite the fact that this is an important forest restoration project that is trying to protect, not harvest, old growth trees,” Chang said. Some environmental groups, including the Natural Resources Defense Council and The Sierra Club, oppose allowing any material from federal lands to count as renewable energy. Franz Matzner, climate change legislative director for NRDC, said his group fears the law will create a “perverse incentive” to log federal forests, or pursue harmful thinning projects in order to meet demand for biomass power. “I think there are serious questions about when and how and how much we want to pursue thinning or any kind of restoration and logging in old growth and late successional forests,”
mille Vital said in a recent interview. “Just last week, we arrested 52 of the people involved.” Malagasy rosewood — reddish and superbly-grained — is among the world’s most sought-after timber, especially since Asian sources of similar trees have been depleted. Here in Maroantsetra, a dusty town not far from Masoala National Park, the evidence of the assault on the forest is an open secret easily shared along the Antenambalana River. Some 500 rosewood logs lay stacked behind a padlocked bamboo fence in a storage lot surrounded by fields of corn and manioc. The inquisitive were shooed away by five young guards who lolled in the shade of a litchi tree. Dragging away the timber is back-breaking labor. Men yank hard on the nylon ropes, rest, then yank again. “Rocks along the way can damage the wood, and you must be careful not to let the logs slide into a valley,” said Thomas Kiloka, 55, a sinewy grandfather who joins the loggers as a porter. He allowed that cutting down rosewood was against the law but said it was better for a poor man to take a tree from the woods than steal money from someone’s home. Besides, there was little chance of being caught. “It is a big forest,” he said.
Continued from A1 Annual heroin deaths in Will County have nearly tripled — from 10 to 29 — since 2006. “It’s so potent that we occasionally find the needle in the arm at the death scene.” Authorities are concerned that the potency and price of the heroin from Mexico and Colombia could widen the drug’s appeal, just as crack did for cocaine decades ago. The Latin American heroin comes in the form of black tar or brown powder, and it has proven especially popular in rural and suburban areas. Originally associated with rock stars, hippies and innercity junkies, heroin in the 1970s was usually smuggled from Asia and the Middle East and was around 5 percent pure. The rest was “filler” such as sugar, starch, powdered milk, even brick dust. The low potency meant that many injected the drug to maximize the effect. But in recent years, Mexican drug dealers have improved the way they process poppies, the brightly colored flowers supplied by drug farmers that provide the raw ingredients for heroin, opium and painkillers such as morphine. Purity levels have increased, and prices have fallen. Federal agents now commonly find heroin that is 50 percent pure and sometimes as much as 80 percent pure.
New users The greater potency allows more heroin users to snort the drug or smoke it and still achieve a sustained high — an attractive alternative for teenagers and suburbanites who don’t want the HIV risk or the track marks on their arms that come with repeated injections. “That has opened up heroin to a whole different group of users,” said Harry Sommers, the agent in charge of the Drug Enforcement Agency office in St. Louis. Among the drug’s casualties was William Henderson, a 29-year-old welder from rural Missouri who died in his sleep in 2009, hours after snorting heroin. A bear of a man at 6foot-1 and 300 pounds, he had tried the drug only a few times. His wife recalled waking up to find the alarm buzzing. Her husband’s body had turned blue, and his stomach was cold to the touch.
identified as high risk under the (Community Wildfire Protection Plans),” Lighthall said. “The grant’s going to help us grind the material and haul it off, so we can better utilize funds on the private lands.” Those high-risk areas include Woodside Ranch, Deschutes River Woods and Awbrey Glenn in the Bend area, and Camp Sherman and Tollgate in the Sisters area, Stutler said. “Wherever the risk is the highest, that’s where we’re at,” he said. The county has contacted most of the homeowners whose land is in the high-risk areas, sometimes through homeowners’ associations and sometimes by knocking on doors, Stutler said.
But if someone owns property in a high-risk area identified by a Community Wildfire Protection Plan, he or she can also contact the county about the program, he said. Removing the trees, branches and other vegetation after it’s cut down, and hauling it elsewhere, is a chance to put the material to good use, Stutler said. “If we didn’t grind it, then we would have to burn it (on-site),” he said. “That creates opportunities for fire to escape. Why burn something when you can get it to a cogeneration plant to produce clean energy with it?”
Matzner said. “If any of it will be pursued we’re talking about a scalpel, not a gigantic hammer.” Mike Degnan, a Washington representative for The Sierra Club, said the only way to be sure that forests aren’t harmed by demand for biomass is to take it out of the equation. “The only way to ensure that doesn’t happen is to have a strong definition of renewable biomass that excludes all public lands,” he said. Future federal energy policy should allow woody material that’s a natural byproduct of real restoration to count as renewable power, said Oregon State University Forestry Professor Norm Johnson. Under current policy, those piles of smaller trees and underbrush are usually burned as slash anyway. “Either we’re going to burn them and put that stuff directly into the atmosphere, or we’re gong to put it in a plant and make some energy out of it,” said Johnson, who has been one of the most influential scientists in federal forest policy. Turning those piles into another revenue stream will fund forest restoration work that would otherwise be too costly, Johnson said. The key is to write laws to let byproducts of restoration count
as renewable energy, while not allowing trees to be harvested on federal land solely for biomass production, Johnson said. “If it’s a byproduct of this noble effort to restore east side forests, then it’s great,” Johnson said. “But if it becomes a goal of its own to start an industry, it is a concern.” Right now, and even with additional tax credits, it wouldn’t be profitable for timber companies to turn swaths of federal forests into biomass energy, said Tom Partin, president of the American Forest Resource Council. “There’s nobody going out taking a tract of timber chopping it down grinding it up and sending it to a biomass plant,” Partin said. There is one issue where Johnson, The Sierra Club, NRDC and The Nature Conservancy all agree: Kerry-Lieberman gives biomass too much credit as a carbon-free power source. The bill treats biomass power as if it creates no carbon emissions, when, in fact, cutting up brush and trees and transporting the material on gasoline or diesel-fueled trucks releases a non-trivial amount of carbon dioxide.

“I kept telling him, ‘Will, you’re late — get up!” said Amanda Henderson of Winfield, Mo., northwest of St. Louis. “But he wasn’t moving, wasn’t breathing. I called 911, but I knew it was too late.” She and her three small boys were left destitute. An increasing amount of the deadliest heroin appears to be coming from Mexico. Although the vast majority still arrives from overseas, Mexican dealers appear to be chipping away at the U.S. market. As recently as two years ago, state and federal drug agents saw heroin arriving from Colombia, Asia and Mexico. But as the availability and quality of cocaine and methamphetamine have declined, Mexican smugglers have stepped up heroin shipments to the U.S. Independent Mexican smugglers have the market largely to themselves because the major drug cartels only dabble in heroin, preferring to focus on locally grown marijuana and Colombian cocaine, according to a DEA official in El Paso, Texas. The agent spoke on the condition of anonymity, citing security concerns and his ongoing role in active drug investigations. Heroin metabolizes in the body so quickly that medical examiners often cannot pinpoint the drug as a cause of death unless there is other evidence to back it up — say, a needle or a syringe found near the body. Also, many victims use multiple drugs and alcohol, so citing a specific substance is often impossible. At the start of the decade, roughly 2,000 people a year died from heroin overdoses nationwide, according to records kept by the Centers for Disease Control. By 2008, the drug was blamed for at least 3,000 deaths in the 36 states that responded to records requests from the AP. Deaths from 2009 have not yet been compiled. The AP contacted agencies in all 50 states, as well as officials in the District of Columbia and New York City, including medical examiners, coroners and health departments. The survey showed
that heroin deaths rose 18.2 percent from 2007 to 2008, and 20.3 percent from 2006 to 2008. Law enforcement officials and drug-treatment experts believe those statistics woefully undercount the actual number of deaths. And they fear the problem is getting worse: Seizures of heroin along the U.S.-Mexico border quadrupled from 2008 to 2009, from about 44 pounds to more than 190 pounds.
Keeping it cheap In the Minneapolis-St. Paul area, more than 20 deaths were blamed on heroin in 2009. DEA analysis of heroin purchased undercover found the drug was nearly 60 percent pure — the highest average purity in the U.S. At the same time, the price was among the lowest. “This is consistent with how crack cocaine was introduced in the 1970s, when it was a high-purity product sold at a low price,” said Carol Falkowski, director of the alcohol and drug abuse division for the Minnesota Department of Human Services. To hook new users, dealers are selling heroin cheap — often around $10 a bag. The new users included Billy Roberts, the 19year-old son of a retired Chicago police officer. Last September, he slumped over dead of a heroin overdose at a friend’s house. John Roberts had moved his family to Will County when Billy was just entering high school. “I thought I was moving away from problems like that,” Roberts said. “These kids out here are being introduced to real serious drugs, dirt cheap, and they don’t know how pure and dangerous they are.” Roberts now speaks to high school and civic groups about the dangers of heroin. Independent Mexican smugglers like Jose Antonio Medina Arreguin pay the cartels for access to lucrative trade routes used to sneak drugs across the border and along U.S. highways. Medina, also known as “Don Pepe,” was arrested earlier this
year in Mexico on suspicion of running a $10 million-a-month heroin smuggling business from the western Mexico state of Michoacan. With the permission of the area’s powerful La Familia cartel, he is believed to have shipped as much as 440 pounds a month into the U.S. for street sales from San Diego to San Jose. Glendale, Calif., often ranks among the safest cities of its size. But police are concerned about a growing heroin problem tied to Mexican street gangs from nearby Los Angeles. Gang members make the quick drive up Interstate 5 to deliver heroin straight to high school kids. “They tell them, ‘Just smoke it. It’s just like smoking a cigarette. It’s just like smoking marijuana,’” said Glendale police Sgt. Tom Lorenz. Once the kids are hooked, “they’ve got a customer forever.” The trip up I-5 also leads to Oregon, where state Medical Examiner Karen Gunson said the heroin problem is worst in communities along the interstate. The state had 131 heroin-related overdose deaths last year — 42 more than three years earlier. The dead simply didn’t know the risks of the heroin they used, she said. That’s what happened to Nikki Tayon. A decade ago, she helped lead the high school softball team from Winfield to second place in the state. But it wasn’t long after high school that she began using drugs such as marijuana and meth. A couple of years ago, she turned to heroin. Last April, her mother, Sue Tayon, got a call from a ranger at Cuivre River State Park. Nikki’s purse and cell phone had been found, and rangers were looking for her. Hours later came the gruesome news: Nikki’s body was discovered in a ditch. She was 28. She had overdosed on heroin that was 90 percent pure, her mother said. Police said her boyfriend panicked and dumped Nikki from the car. No charges were filed. “I know she was doing it,” Sue Tayon said. “But she didn’t deserve to die this way.”

‘TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD’
A classic turns 50, and parties are planned
ings and scholarly discussions. The publisher has recruited Tom Brokaw and other authors to take part by reading from the novel —
which tells the story of the smalltown lawyer Atticus Finch, who defends a black man accused of rape, and his family — in their
hometowns. Perhaps the largest concentration of celebrations for the book are in Monroeville, which calls itself the “literary capital of Alabama” after its most famous resident, “Mockingbird” author Harper Lee. The city is planning four days of events, including silent auctions, a walking tour of downtown, a marathon reading of the book in the county courthouse and a birthday party on the courthouse lawn. The festivities are not expected to attract an appearance by the mysterious Lee, who is 84 and still living quietly in Alabama after never publishing another book. “Harper Lee has always been a very private person,” said Tina Andreadis, a spokeswoman for HarperCollins. “The legacy of ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ speaks for itself.”
and Syria. Many in the military are also concerned that as American troops assume roles far from traditional combat, they would be at risk of being treated as spies if captured and denied the Geneva Convention protections afforded military detainees. The precise operations that the directive authorizes are unclear, and what the military has done to follow through on the order is uncertain. The document, a copy of which was viewed by The New York Times, provides few details about continuing missions or intelligence-gathering operations. Several government officials who described the impetus for the order would speak only on condition of anonymity because the document is classified. Spokesmen for the White House and the Pentagon declined to comment-. The Times, responding to concerns about troop safety raised by an official at U.S. Central Command, the military headquarters run by Petraeus, withheld some details about how troops could be deployed in certain countries. The seven-page directive appears to authorize specific operations in Iran, most likely to gather intelligence about the country’s nuclear program or identify dissident groups that might be use-
ful for a future military offensive. The Obama administration insists that, for the moment, it is committed to penalizing Iran for its nuclear activities only with diplomatic and economic sanctions. Nevertheless, the Pentagon has to draw up detailed war plans to be prepared in advance, in the event that Obama - authorized a strike. “The Defense Department can’t be caught flat-footed,” said one Pentagon official with knowledge of Petraeus’ order. The directive, the Joint Unconventional Warfare Task Force Execute Order, signed Sept. 30, may also have helped lay a foundation for the surge of American military activity in Yemen that began three months later. Special Operations troops began working with Yemen’s military to try to dismantle al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula, an affiliate of Osama bin Laden’s terror network based in Yemen. The Pentagon has also carried out missile strikes from Navy ships into suspected militant hideouts and plans to spend more than $155 million equipping Yemeni troops with armored vehicles, helicopters and small arms. Officials said that many top commanders, Petraeus among them, have advocated an expan-
sive interpretation of the military’s role around the world, arguing that troops need to operate beyond Iraq and Afghanistan to better fight militant groups. The order, which an official said was drafted in close coordination with Adm. Eric Olson, the officer in charge of the U.S. Special Operations Command, calls for clandestine activities that “cannot or will not be accomplished” by conventional military operations or “interagency activities,” a reference to American spy agencies. While the CIA and the Pentagon have often been at odds over expansion of clandestine military activity, most recently over intelligence gathering by Pentagon contractors in Pakistan and Afghanistan, there does not appear to have been a significant dispute over the September order. A spokesman for the CIA declined to confirm the existence of Petraeus’ order but said that the spy agency and the Pentagon had a “close relationship” and generally coordinate operations in the field. “There’s more than enough work to go around,” said the spokesman, Paul Gimigliano. “The real key is coordination. That typically works well, and if problems arise, they get settled.”

Military Continued from A1 Its goals are to build networks that could “penetrate, disrupt, defeat or destroy” al-Qaida and other militant groups, as well as to “prepare the environment” for future attacks by American or local military forces, the document said. The order, however, does not appear to authorize offensive strikes in any specific countries. In broadening its secret activities, the U.S. military has also sought in recent years to break its dependence on the Central Intelligence Agency and other spy agencies for information in countries without a significant American troop presence. Petraeus’ order is meant for use of small teams of American troops to fill intelligence gaps about terror organizations and other threats in the Middle East and beyond, especially emerging groups plotting attacks against the United States. But some Pentagon officials worry that the expanded role carries risks. The authorized activities could strain relationships with friendly governments like Saudi Arabia or Yemen, or incite the anger of hostile nations like Iran

Pakistan accused in Afghan blast New York Times News Service KABUL — A spokesman for Afghanistan’s intelligence agency on Monday accused Pakistan’s intelligence agency of involvement in the suicide bombing here last week that killed six NATO soldiers, including four colonels.
Charters Continued from A1 It also has debts to 10 community colleges for a total of between $800,000 and $900,000 for students in Early College programs who took community college courses for dual credit. AllPrep and EdChoices never paid the colleges for the classes. Hunt said AllPrep had sent a letter to all parents telling them they’d be responsible for the company’s debt. “Public charter schools cannot charge tuition,” Hunt said. “This was highly inappropriate.” Of the AllPrep and EdChoices facilities around the state, five have been served eviction notices: the two in Sisters and one each in Portland, Eugene and Clackamas. But it’s the Clackamas eviction that’s made the biggest waves. Twice in the past month, officials from Oregon’s departments of education and justice were blocked from the records by an EdChoices lawyer, who allegedly claimed a state Justice Department subpoena prevented the company from handing over the documents. A lawyer for EdChoices said the company was simply complying with state and federal laws regarding student privacy. Hunt reported the Clackamas office was three stories and 10,000 square feet. It included former AllPrep director Tim King’s office. Officials estimate about 1,600 student records were in the office, as well as many other education records with personally identifiable information sitting around in staff offices. “They were scattered about the facility in plain view,” Hunt said. “It was very concerning to us. Others were very commingled among schools and it was

not evident where the record goes to which school.” Hunt has visited the Clackamas facility seven times, and said the first time she entered it was obvious employees didn’t know the eviction was looming because their personal effects were still in the office. King’s office, she noted, was cleared out. Starla Goff, a lawyer retained by EdChoices’ insurance company, did not return calls for comment, nor did King respond to e-mail requests for comment. Now that the state has taken control of the student records, it must reorganize them and return them to the proper districts. First, Hunt said, ODE will work to identify all of the high school seniors’ records and send those out so those students can graduate on time. Then, employees will pull all records for students with special education needs so districts can comply with federal laws. Once that’s done, the rest of the student records will be sorted through. “By September we hope to have all those records gone from ODE,” Hunt said. But it will take a lot of work. Hunt said the files are in disarray; in one case, multiple students’ information was in a single file, and many records don’t contain basic information like students’ schools, teachers and principals. Hunt and Allen noted ODE is currently working on drafting legislation that could prevent future situations like the AllPrep and EdChoices debacle.

Top court clears suit by black firefighters By Robert Barnes The Washington Post
WASHINGTON — The Supreme Court ruled unanimously on Monday that a group of African-Americans may sue the city of Chicago on their claim that the city’s discriminatory use of an application test kept them from being hired as firefighters. The justices rejected the city’s argument that the class of 6,000 black applicants had waited too long to bring the suit. Antonin Scalia, writing for the court, said each time the city used the test results to hire firefighters over the next six years represented a new chance for the denied applicants to bring their suit. “Under the city’s reading, if an employer adopts an unlawful practice and no timely charge is brought, it can continue using the practice indefinitely, with impunity, despite ongoing disparate impact” on minorities, Scalia wrote. Federal law forbids employers from using an employment practice that “causes a disparate impact on the basis of race, color, religion, sex or national origin,” even if there is no discriminatory intent. The only exception is if the employer can show the practice is job-related and “consistent with business necessity.” Questions of employment discrimination have split the court in the past. Just last June, the court decided the flip side of the issue, saying the city of New Haven, Conn., was wrong to junk the results of its firefighter-promotion test because too few minorities qualified.
Mine urged workers to hide errors, families say Bloomberg News BECKLEY, W.Va. — Massey Energy Co. encouraged workers to conceal safety violations from federal inspectors, the families of the 29 people killed last month in an underground explosion at a company coal mine told lawmakers Monday. When an “inspector comes onto Massey mine property, the code word goes out ‘we’ve got a man on the property,’” Gary Quarles, whose son died in the April 5 blast, said at a congressional hearing in Beckley. “When the word goes out, all effort is made to correct any deficiencies and to direct the inspector’s attention away from any deficiencies.” Massey and the federal Mine Safety and Health Administration were criticized by relatives in prepared testimony for the House Education and Labor Committee hearing being held about 20 miles from the site of worst mine explosion in 40 years.

U.S. hikers jailed in Iran will wed upon release By Patrick Condon The Associated Press
MINNEAPOLIS — Shane Bauer wove an engagement ring out of threads from his shirt, then met his girlfriend in an unlikely place for a marriage proposal: the exercise yard of the Iranian prison where the couple have been locked up for nearly a year. The mothers of both young Americans said Monday that their children will get married whenever they are released. They were taken into custody and accused of spying for the U.S. when they went for a hike last July along the border between Iraq and Iran. The engagement “shows they’re continuing to have hope. They’re planning for the future, which is very good,” Bauer’s mother, Cindy Hickey of Pine City, Minn., told The Associated Press, two days after she and Sarah Shourd’s mother returned to the U.S. following a short visit to see their children. They were joined on the journey by the mother of a third American, Josh Fattal, Bauer’s college roommate. Fattal, who is also imprisoned, will be Bauer’s best man. Hickey said her son fashioned the crude engagement ring and proposed in January
at Tehran’s Evin Prison. Bauer and Fattal share a prison cell. Shourd is held separately but is allowed to see the two men for about an hour each day. On the day Bauer proposed, he asked Fattal to hang back from their daily meeting so he could pop the question, the mothers said. The engagement offered a glimmer of good news to the hikers’ families after a disappointing visit in which the mothers had hoped to bring their children home. Over the weekend, Iran’s intelligence minister said his country would be open to a prisoner swap if Washington makes a humanitarian gesture toward Iranians in U.S. custody comparable to the decision to permit the mothers’ visit. “We’ve heard that before, and the thing is we have no control over it,” Hickey said of a potential prisoner exchange. “We can’t spend a whole lot of time thinking in that direction.” The Americans’ case has been complicated by ongoing tension between the two nations over Iran’s nuclear program. Hickey said the greatest hope for the families is that Iran will release the three on humanitarian grounds.
Australia expels Israeli envoy over links to Dubai killing By Marion Rae Bloomberg News
CANBERRA, Australia — Australia has asked Israel to withdraw a diplomat from Canberra because of the “involvement of state intelligence” in the production of fake Australian passports linked to the killing of a senior Hamas official, Foreign Minister Stephen Smith said Monday. The passports “were deliberately counterfeited and cloned for use” and it was “beyond
doubt” that Israel was responsible, Smith told reporters in Canberra. He didn’t identify the diplomat, saying the official was asked to leave Australia “within a week.” Australian police and intelligence services investigated the “abuse” of four Australian passports used by people involved in the killing of Mahmoud al-Mabhouh in Dubai in January. Other suspects travelled on British, Irish, French and German documents.
W B Lawmaker’s slaying apt to stir Iraqi politics BAGHDAD — Gunmen in northern Iraq killed a newly elected lawmaker from a Sunnibacked list that narrowly won Iraq’s March elections, officials said, in a slaying certain to rattle the fragile political system. There was no immediate claim of responsibility, but the Sunni lawmaker’s allies in the Iraqiya coalition said Monday’s shooting was politically motivated. His death, in the former insurgent hotbed of Mosul, was sure to further destabilize Iraqi politics, as the country’s leaders continue to haggle over the makeup of a new government nearly three months after a parliamentary election.
Japanese party leader rejects base relocation TOKYO — Prime Minister Yukio Hatoyama’s coalition partner rejected a government decision to relocate a U.S. military base within Okinawa, threatening a split ahead of July’s upper house election.
“The idea was to lessen the burden of the people of Okinawa and building a new base doesn’t do that,” Social Democratic Party leader Mizuho Fukushima told reporters Monday after a meeting at the prime minister’s office in Tokyo. “It violates” an election pledge made by Hatoyama last year, she said. Fukushima, a member of Hatoyama’s Cabinet, threatened in December to leave the government unless the Futenma Marine Air Base was shifted off Okinawa.
Yemeni tribesmen kidnap 2 U.S. tourists CAIRO — Armed tribesmen kidnapped two American tourists on Monday in rugged territory about 45 miles outside San‘a, the capital of Yemen, according to news reports and Yemeni security officials. The man and woman were traveling by car when they and their Yemeni driver and guide were abducted in al-Haymah district. The Yemen Observer reported that gunmen brought the
Americans, believed to be a man and his wife, to a village where they were offered food and qat leaves, a mild stimulant traditionally chewed by Yemenis. Media reports said the kidnappers were demanding the release of a clansman arrested in a land dispute.
Israel’s Peres denies nuke offer to S. Africa TEL AVIV, Israel — Israeli President Shimon Peres on Monday denied a report in Britain’s Guardian newspaper that he offered to sell nuclear arms to apartheid South Africa 35 years ago. “Israel has never negotiated the exchange of nuclear weapons with South Africa,” according to a statement issued by Peres’s office in Jerusalem. A series of documents stamped “Top Secret” were published in the Guardian with a story that described a 1975 meeting in which P.W. Botha, South Africa’s defense minister at the time, asked Peres, then Israel’s defense minister, about buying missiles. — From wire reports

Congress prepares for a battle over extending benefits By David Lightman and William Douglas McClatchy-Tribune News Service
WASHINGTON — Congress is bracing for a new, unpredictable battle this week over whether to fund more aid for jobless workers as an estimated 1.2 million people face having their benefits cut off next month unless lawmakers act. The debate, expected to begin today in the House of Representatives, will be the third time this year that these provisions have faced expired funding. In the first two instances, Congress initially balked, as some Republicans were upset that the funding wasn’t paid for with spending cuts. At one point in early April, Congress left for a 16-day spring recess without funding the benefits, leaving unemployed workers uncertain when they would get checks. See Benefits / B5

Idaho is now making a concerted and aggressive effort at recruiting businesses away from neighboring states by touting itself as a low-cost, business-friendly environment. The state’s Department of Commerce launched a website, www.justmaketheshift.com, Monday that compares Idaho’s business costs, such as property tax, corporate income tax and electricity rates, to Oregon, Washington and California. A news release Monday from the Commerce Department says Idaho is trying to lure companies from states that have raised taxes on businesses, including Oregon and Washington. “The new site informs businesses that Idaho’s state government believes the best way to support business is to maintain a stable, predictable tax and regulatory environment, then simply get out of the way,” the news release says. In January, Oregonians passed Measure 66, which raised taxes on higher-income households, and Measure 67, which raised the state’s corporate minimum tax. In addition to the website, Idaho also started a Facebook page.
A now-expired homebuyer tax credit and low mortgage rates helped boost sales of previously occupied homes in April. The improvements aren’t likely to last. Economists caution that Americans are facing so many financial obstacles that falling rates alone won’t be enough to lift the housing market. Sales of previously owned homes rose 7.6 percent to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 5.77 million, the National Association of Realtors said Monday. The sales increase sparked a rise in home prices. The median price for a new home rose to $173,100, up 4 percent from a year ago. — From staff and wire reports

Paul The Computer Guy takes an everyman approach to tech By Tim Doran The Bulletin
Quality of life attracted former software engineer Paul Spencer and his wife, author Suzanne Schlosberg, to Bend, as it has many others. But Spencer found it’s also a good place to start a computer-repair business, as well as a great location to raise a family. Since Spencer, 42, moved his business, Paul The Computer Guy, into a storefront on Northeast Franklin Avenue in December, he has seen it increase 40 to 50 percent. While Bend has other computer-repair businesses, few market themselves so vividly or with the

same humorous flourishes. First of all, the business’s name contains an everyman quality. Then, Spencer has it emblazoned in orange on his white Subaru Outback, right above his slogan, “We know what the heck we’re doing.”
His store, located a few doors west of the 7-Eleven at Third Street and Franklin, displays large posters that poke fun at universal computer frustrations. One, for example, features a man screaming at his laptop. “Yelling won’t make it go faster,” the accompanying text says. “We will.” Spencer credits his wife, a humorist and health writer, with adding many of the amusing touches, such as the slogan. He enjoys running his business and interacting with customers, he said. He also has much more fun now than during the 10 years he spent working in the aerospace industry, most of it the Los Angeles area. See Computer / B5
Madoff’s con victims outside U.S. accept $15.5B settlement By Raphael Minder and Diana B. Henriques New York Times News Service
MADRID — About 720,000 investors outside the United States who lost money to the convicted swindler Bernard Madoff have settled with their banks, receiving about $15.5 billion in all, according to law firms representing those victims of the fraud. The settlements cover about 80 percent of the clients represented by the firms, said Javier Cremades, founder of Cremades & Calvo-Sotelo, a Madrid law firm, who helped organize the global alliance of 60 firms a year ago. The $15.5 billion figure represents, in theory, 100 percent of the amount clients had invested, Cremades said, but excludes in almost all cases the bogus paper gains that were listed on investor statements.

A few weeks ago, as Steve Case was flying above Sterling, Va., en route to Dulles International Airport, he looked down and saw the sprawling campus that is home to the company he co-founded 25 years ago this month — the pioneering service that took millions of people online for the first time.
“Always weird to fly over AOL’s headquarters,” Case tweeted not long after landing. “Time flies.” He attached to his tweet a photo of the impressive campus the Internet has blossomed far beyond “You’ve got mail!” — but AOL these days fills only a little more than half of its original 1.2 millionsquare-foot Virginia home. Several of the buildings were recently leased to Raythe-
on, a defense contractor. Key AOL executives have moved to New York. “The AOL brand has one of the biggest legacies in terms of what has changed the world in the last 50 years,” said Tim Armstrong, a former Google executive who was named AOL’s chief executive in March 2009. But AOL, which is once again independent, having spun off from Time Warner
last year, is trying to look ahead, searching for a footing in a world of blogs, social networking, targeted ads and tweets from airplanes. Some industry observers openly wonder whether AOL — for so long associated with the oh-so-’90s screeching sound of dial-up Internet connections — can survive in a broadband world dominated by Google, Facebook, Microsoft and Yahoo.

Britain’s new leader faces daunting deficit No easy solutions exist for problem at root of European crisis By Landon Thomas Jr.
By Claire Cain Miller
New York Times News Service
New York Times News Service
LONDON — As governments from Greece to Portugal to Spain try to sell markets on their budget-cutting zeal, the country that may face the biggest hurdle is Britain. Propelled by a robust economy that finally collapsed in 2008, Britain’s spending boom was the most expansive in Europe, producing a welter of shiny hospitals, school buildings and highways, along with a cadre of well-paid public sector officials. Now the new government must unwind not so much the debt incurred from two years of economic stimulus efforts, but more broadly, the structural deficits built up over more than a decade of expanded health care, education and pension commitments. Prime Minister David Cameron has talked boldly of closing a British budget deficit now equal to 11 percent of its gross domestic product. But he also has said that he will allow health spending to outpace inflation, continuing a trend started by the Labour government that has doubled the cost of the government’s National Health Service since 2000. It is this apparent disconnect between the promises of politicians and the harsh demands
SAUSALITO, Calif. — Tony Blair, the former British prime minister, is turning his attention to Silicon Valley. Blair is becoming a senior adviser at Khosla Ventures, the venture capital firm founded by Vinod Khosla, an investor and a proponent of green technology. Khosla Ventures, which Khosla founded in 2004 after leaving the venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers, made the announcement here on Monday at a meeting of its investors. The firm is investing $1.1 billion in clean technology and information technology companies. Blair will offer strategic advice on public policy to the firm’s green portfolio companies. They include Calera, a manufacturer that uses carbon dioxide to create cement products; Kior, which converts biomass like wood chips into biofuels; and Pax Streamline, which aims to make air-conditioning more environmentally friendly. “The more I studied the whole climate change issue and linking it with energy security and development issues, I became absolutely convinced that the answer is in the technology,” Blair said in an interview.
of investors for immediate and across-the-board spending cuts that is at the root of the financial crisis in Europe today. Even after the nearly $1 trillion rescue package arranged by European Union leaders to shore up the weaker euro zone members, financial markets have gyrated as fears build that debt-plagued nations lack the will to stand up to powerful unions and pare back once generous welfare programs. “You need a martyr to cut this type of deficit,” said Andrew Lilico, chief economist at Policy Exchange, a right-leaning London research group, who has argued that quick and immediate spending cuts would actually hasten economic recovery rather than derail it. “You need someone to say, ‘I will do the right thing and everyone will hate me.’” According to a recent analysis by Citigroup, Britain’s structural deficit — meaning the part of the budget gap that will not close even when the economy improves — was 9.2 percent of GDP last year, ranking third in the world behind rapidly aging Japan and almost bankrupt Greece. As is the case with other countries in Europe, like Spain, Greece and Ireland, Britain has a deficit that has grown
mostly because of a decade of rising government outlays that seemed reasonable at the time, but rested heavily on rising tax revenue that disappeared when the bubble burst. In a recent report, the International Monetary Fund warned that the countries that would have to make the biggest sacrifices in spending cuts and tax increases to return to precrisis levels of indebtedness — Britain, France, Ireland, Spain and the United States — also face the biggest increase in spending demands. These are driven by the rising number of the elderly, thus making the cuts all the harder to impose. The British chancellor of the exchequer, George Osborne, who has long urged the Conservative Party to trim the deficit, said on Monday that he would push through 6 billion pounds ($8.65 billion) in spending cuts. Though decidedly modest when compared with a budget deficit estimated to be about 178 billion pounds, the cuts represent an effort to convince skittish markets that Cameron’s team is committed to fiscal restraint. “The years of public sector plenty are over,” Osborne said. “The more decisively we act, the more quickly we can come through these tough times.”
AOL Continued from B1
‘Beat the Internet’

Izhar Bhatti, left, senior network analyst, and Mike Thornton, network operations center specialist, are part of AOL’s turnaround effort.
The business of online advertising is a tough one, as newspaper owners have learned in the past decade. Margins are thinner online than in print, where scarcity of ad space allowed for much higher rates. The Internet offers infinite space and endless content, driving down ad rates. AOL thinks it has a solution. Rather than just creating news sites that cover the story of the day, it is using Internet usage data to create content on subjects people are searching for. If news about the latest “American Idol” castoff is pulling in lots of users, AOL’s sites will create more content about it. The more pages AOL creates, the more pages users see, and the more ads it can sell. “Believe it or not, content really is a toddler on the Internet right now,” Armstrong said.

are going to be very powerful.” How many pages could AOL create? There really is no limit, executives say. The firm has a site, Patch.com, that is creating hyperlocal content aimed at communities block by block. The other day, the Patch.com site for Arlington, Mass., featured news about a police car that was hit during an arrest and tidbits about the Hardy School annual car wash and bake sale. AOL’s Fanhouse site is creating home pages for every professional athlete in every sport in every league on Earth. Really.

be good. Their reason: Google. The search giant’s vaunted algorithm gives heavy weight to content that’s good enough to be popular and widely recommended — the more times a page is linked to, the higher it rises in search rankings. AOL’s finance and gadget sites have recently won journalism awards, but so far, the new AOL’s financial results have disappointed Wall Street. Poor quarterly results recently sent AOL’s stock plunging, but the stock jumped a couple of days later after Armstrong bought more than $11 million worth of shares — a personal vote of confidence that low-level AOL employees quietly cheered. And increasingly, according to marketing executives, advertisers are putting AOL back on their radars. There’s a long way to go: In the most recent quarter, AOL’s sites attracted 2.9 percent of the display ad market, behind Facebook, Yahoo, Microsoft and Fox, according to Comscore. But “AOL is definitely on the map in the digital media scene,” said Bant Breen, president of the New York ad firm Initiative Worldwide. “The world demands high levels of content curating, and AOL has the ability to do that.”

Much of the technological work still happens in Sterling, and to lead it, AOL recently lured Bill Gates’ former tech adviser, Alexander Gounares, away from Microsoft to be chief technology officer. “Content matters,” he said. “Can we optimize what kind of content people see when they want to see it?” Such talk causes palpitations for news traditionalists. “This is a huge change about how we think about journalistic content creation,” said Ken Doctor, a media analyst and author of the recent book “Newsonomics.” “Whoever the winners are five years down the road, whether it’s AOL or Yahoo or whoever, they

is to let each of the smaller, targeted brands create its own relationship with consumers. “This is really our goal: We want to create high-quality, credible, trustworthy information, and do it with technological savvy,” said Marty Moe, a lawyer and former adviser to Treasury Secretary Lawrence H. Summers during the Clinton administration who now runs AOL’s publishing division. “What really matters is the strength of the content.”
always going to have editors deciding what’s important, but we’re gonna leverage technology to give people what they want,” Moe said. “The combination of editing and technological savvy will carry the day.” But to prevail, analysts said, AOL must create a lot of that content cheaply. To that end, it has started Seed.com, run by former New York Times technology reporter Saul Hansell, and pays up to $50 per news article to anyone who can reliably string sentences together. AOL fuses that content with its professional, higher-cost content. For example, a writer could earn $20 by submitting at least 15 quotes of dialogue from the movie “MacGruber,” which might be used on moviefone.com. Or one could collect $50 by contributing “Real Stories From Men Who Have Been Cheated On,” the best of which might appear on AOL’s men’s site, Asylum.com. “What happened, what did it feel like, how did you react and most importantly, what did you learn?” the assignment says. “You must include a photograph of yourself or your submission will not be considered.” Says Doctor, the media analyst, “We are now officially in the era of cheap content creation.”
Barclays Spain. Efforts to reach the banks on Friday and Monday were mostly unsuccessful. Cremades said that the 60 law firms, in 25 countries and employing 5,000 lawyers, had received a combined $65 million in fees from settlements so far. The Madoff fraud totaled $64.8 billion in paper losses, and the alliance estimates that it affected a record 3 million investors, although there were slightly more than 4,900 active direct accounts shown in the Madoff records available to investigators. Madoff was sentenced last June to 150 years in prison. North Americans invested mainly through money managers, feeder funds and other hedge funds, while outside the United States, the common intermediaries were banks, using their networks in countries like Spain to offer Madoff-linked products to retail customers. So far, settlements have been less common in the American courts because both the indirect feeder fund investors and the conduits for their invested have some incentive to stall. At present, indirect investors in the United States are not eligible for compensation through the Securities Investors Protection Corp., the industry-financed organization that provides limited cash advances to customers of failed brokerages. But recently, the court-appointed trustee liquidating the Madoff firm asked the federal bankruptcy court in Manhattan to rule on whether SIPC coverage extended to indirect investors. Hearings are scheduled for later this year, so some indirect investors may want to see if they can qualify for relief before they pursue out-of-court settlements.

Inside AOL’s campus, where remnants of the go-go dotcom days still dot the hallways — foosball table here, massage chair there — employees say an unusual culture is taking hold: A big company with $262 million in the bank and such perks as on-site day care is trying to adopt the stay-late work ethic of a startup, albeit one where the average employee age is 35, not 22. These days, the slogan on signs around campus urges workers to “Beat the Internet” — that is, to surpass AOL’s dominance of the Web in the 1990s. AOL is quietly receding from its old subscriber model — 35 million Americans got Internet service from AOL in 2002, but fewer than 5 million do today — yet the company is reaching far more people through its content, which Nielsen ratings say attracts the seventh-largest audience of any Web brand. “A lot of us are here now for the turnaround,” said Amy Craig, a product manager who works on AOL’s social networking applications, such as AOL Instant Messenger. Craig said she recently turned down job offers from other big tech firms. And she no longer cries at home after big meetings. “I’m happy again,” she said. Craig, one of about 5,000 employees remaining after buyouts and layoffs slashed AOL’s workforce by a third over the past six months, is getting behind an audacious goal: AOL wants to be the biggest newspaper (and magazine and TV network and movie theater) on the Web, creating millions of pages of news, reviews, statistics, how-to guides — any content around which it can sell ads. It has created or bought some of the most popular sites on the Web: Engadget.com, for gadget geeks; PoliticsDaily.com, for political junkies; FanHouse.com, for sports nuts; DailyFinance. com, for business news; and even MMAFighting.com, for fans of professional fistfights. The AOL brand barely appears on any of these sites, an approach AOL executives confidently compare to Disney’s unbranded ownership of ABC, ESPN and Miramax. The idea
Continued from B1 One exception was the Bank of Kuwait, which settled early last year with about 20 clients who had invested via its Swiss bank. The bank reimbursed about $50 million, covering both principal and paper gains. Some banks also set specific payment conditions that make comparisons difficult, Cremades said. For instance, Santander, the Spanish bank whose clients lost up to 2.33 billion euros ($2.89 billion) — the third-biggest Madoff casualty worldwide — settled by issuing preferential shares redeemable in 10 years. Still, Cremades described the level of settlements reached in a dozen, mostly European, countries as a success. “I would have thought that only about 30 percent would reach an agreement, but really the banks have had to invest in not destroying their image and retail networks,” he said. “I’m sure this is also because we’re now in an environment where trust in the banks is already scarce.” He said the law firms would pursue efforts on behalf of the 20 percent of clients who have yet to receive compensation. Cremades would not estimate these losses, however, because they are confidential and subject to judicial actions. Nine institutions have not offered global settlements, Cremades said, though talks are continuing with some firms. He identified them as Credit Suisse, Vontobel, Mirabaud, Julius Baer, EFG and BBVA Switzerland, all based in Switzerland, as well as Banco Espirito Santo of Portugal, the Dutch bank ABN Amro and

T F Rival sites seize on Facebook’s troubles By Jenna Wortham New York Times News Service
It sounds like a kamikaze mission: an upstart with a meager number of users and no capital squaring off against Facebook, a social networking juggernaut with more than 400 million members and a $15 billion valuation. But despite those odds, a handful of startups are eyeing the social networking industry with renewed interest. The newfound infusion of confidence comes, in part, from the recent scrutiny focused on Facebook over revisions to its platform and privacy policy that encourage its members to make personal information accessible to anyone on the Internet. “Right now is the perfect time for us,” said Leo Shimizu, cofounder of a company called Pip. io, which he describes as a social operating system. “People are starting to understand the limitations of Facebook while we’re showing off a product with features that everybody is wanting and didn’t know existed.” Pip.io is similar to Facebook and Twitter in that it allows its members to post status updates, send messages and connect with friends. But unlike its counterparts, the service allows its users to keep more of the information private. The service, which completed a test phase in February, has just 20,000 registered members — a drop in the bucket compared with Facebook. But Shimizu remains undaunted. “The market opportunity is one of a kind, and it’s up to us to capitalize on it,” he said. Analysts and industry experts are quick to point out that Facebook has dealt with a number of user protests in its six-year history and emerged unscathed each time, continuing to add users at a record clip. For many users, the website is an irreplaceable nexus of friends, relatives and colleagues online, making it difficult

But while there may not yet be any notable challengers to Facebook’s momentum, said Ray Valdes, an analyst at the research firm Gartner, the company could be accumulating enough damage to its reputation that if a worthy opponent emerges, it will have a ready base of people willing to
jump ship. “Facebook is pushing to the edge of users’ comfort zone,” he said. “It has certainly planted a seed in some users’ minds to look for an exit door.” Also offering a note of courage to hopeful entrepreneurs is the fickle taste of Web denizens. A service that is in vogue one year

can just as easily be out of style the next. “There’s always a cycle of what’s popular in Silicon Valley,” said Shimizu, citing the decline of services like MySpace, Friendster and AOL. “The Facebook experience can be better, and if we can do that, we can open up a new market.” Michael Chisari, a developer in Chicago, said the escalating privacy concerns around Facebook spurred him to resurrect Appleseed, an open source project to develop free software that would allow users to set up their own social networking hubs. “In the past month, there has been a sea change in the number of people looking for alternatives,” he said. “A year ago, nobody was interested in my project, and now I have about 80 supporters signed up.” Chisari, who estimates that Appleseed is six months away from opening to the public, is not the only one trying to create an open alternative. There’s Diaspora, the brainchild of four New York University students who raised more than $180,000 in seed money through Kickstarter, an online site that helps creative people find support. And there are several networks up and running, like OneSocialWeb, Crabgrass and Elgg, to name a few. Evelyn Castillo-Bach, an entrepreneur in Florida who created a small, subscription-based site exclusively for students called Collegiate Nation, said she was quickly introducing a version of the platform called UmeNow that anyone would be able join. “As the drumbeat and awareness for Facebook’s disregard of privacy increased, I realized I shouldn’t delay this,” she said. “Clearly the time is now.” It is difficult to quantify how many Facebookers are frustrated enough to hit the delete button and go searching for greener pastures. One measure is a website called QuitFacebookDay, which is
calling for Facebook users to close their accounts en masse on May 31 and has attracted nearly 13,000 commitments so far. Another site, called FacebookProtest, which is asking disgruntled users to boycott the website on June 6 by not logging in, has drawn roughly 3,000 supporters. In addition, a group on Facebook created to protest recent changes has swelled to more than 2.2 million members. According to Facebook, there has been no change in the rate of deactivations in the past few weeks. Andrew Noyes, a spokesman for the company, said the site had added 10 million users since late April. It is widely expected to announce soon that it has reached
half a billion members. Perhaps in an effort to tamp the growing chorus of complaints, the company has announced plans to simplify its complex menu of privacy controls, which currently includes more than 170 options. “The messages we’ve received are pretty clear,” Noyes said in an e-mailed statement. “Users appreciate having precise and comprehensive controls but want them to be simpler and easy to use.”

HOUSTON — Fully half of the United States is now watching television in high definition, the fastest adoption of TV technology since the VCR hit store shelves in the 1980s. With the adoption comes good news for networks and Hollywood studios: HD lures more viewers to TV for longer periods of time. According to The Nielsen Co., high-definition households watch about 3 percent more prime-time programming than their standard-definition counterparts. The sudden growth in high-definition, or HD, viewing has happened with little fuss for consumers, who simply swapped out their TV sets and set-top-boxes. But behind the scenes, HD is nothing short of a revolutionary upgrade for the television business, involving hundreds of millions of dollars of investment in new cameras, studios and control rooms. It has even changed the way local anchors apply their makeup here in Houston, a particularly popular market for HD. “High-def is like being under a magnifying glass lit up by a flashlight,” Sherry Williams, an anchor at KHOU-TV, the CBS affiliate in Houston, said on a recent morning. But as HD adoption grows, it is apparent that there are still two kinds of TV production: one that enables viewers to see individual blades of grass on a baseball field, and one that is little changed since the 1960s when color television took off. Studio executives privately complain about local stations that cannot yet afford to receive highdefinition broadcasts of shows. And producers say they cannot yet take full advantage of the wider, crystal-clear medium because so many viewers still have outdated TV sets. High-definition TV is produced in the widescreen 16:9 aspect ratio, allowing a more cinematic look. But television news graphics, for instance, still have to be

In Houston, which counts a higher proportion of HD viewers than any other market in the country, except for Washington, D.C., viewers rarely comment on the quality of KHOU’s signal, unless some sports event is not being carried in HD, that is. “For the consumer, it was very easy,” Susan McEldoon, the station president, said of the transition. KHOU was the first Houston station to upgrade to HD three years ago. “It’s such an expensive endeavor,” she said, with a multimillion-dollar investment in new cameras, computer servers and other equipment. New sets for the newscasts were also built, and new graphics packages were created. Since then, KHOU’s competitors have all converted to HD, with the final station completing its transition this month. McEldoon said she did not know whether HD had specifically helped her station’s ratings; the conversion was simply a matter of keeping up with changing industry standards. HDTV standards were adopted
in the late 1990s, but it was not until late 2008 — as the price of the TV sets steadily dropped — that a quarter of Americans were seeing the results at home. Now Nielsen says that 51.7 percent are watching in high-definition. Those households have higher income levels and are more likely to own DVRs and video game consoles. Some networks — especially ones catering to sports and film fans — benefit more than others. ESPN, HBO, Nickelodeon, the NFL Network and Showtime are all among the biggest gainers of audience share in HD, according to a Nielsen analysis of ratings data for The New York Times. Fox even promoted the impact of HD at an upfront presentation to advertisers in New York last week. “While wonderful new gadgets are introduced all the time, research shows that the consumer’s first purchasing choice is a big, beautiful flat-screen HD television,” said Peter Rice, the chairman of Fox Broadcasting. “And they’re not buying them as furniture. These sets bring the audience closer to the action, and closer to the emotion.”

160 local government job losses in April. There were 20 job losses from state government employment. Job reduction at the local level has been an ongoing trend since the housing market went bust. Bend City Manager Eric King said the 2011 fiscal year proposed budget will call for about 450 full-

Maurice Emsellem, the group’s co-director of policy, said that if Congress doesn’t act soon, some states could find themselves in worse straits than when they stepped in before to provide benefits for 13 to 20 weeks. “This time around, there are fewer states in that situation,” Emsellem said. “The states will have to plan around the extensions not coming.” About 9.8 million people are collecting jobless benefits. While many could have their benefits disrupted if Congress fails to act, they are expected to get paid retroactively. What concerns moderate Democrats, as well as most Republicans, is the estimate by the nonpartisan CBO that passing the jobless plan, which includes several other provisions, could
Continued from B1 Congress eventually approved extending benefits, but that extension expires June 2. Lawmakers are scheduled to leave Friday for a Memorial Day recess and won’t return until June 1. This time, the prospects are getting dicey: An estimate by the Congressional Budget Office says passing the measure will add $133.7 billion to the deficit over 10 years and states, which filled the gap in coverage last time, now are more strapped by falling tax revenue. At the National Employment Law Project, a liberal-leaning activist group that Monday provided the 1.2 million estimate, lobbyist Judy Conti said “it’s anybody’s guess” what Con-

time equivalent employees, down from about 555 in 2007. About 70 percent of the lost jobs are from areas directly related to building activities, such as engineers or inspectors. King said the city has had five rounds of layoffs during the past two years. Now, with a $21 million pro-

S. taxes and meeting the needs of those who have lost their jobs through no fault of their own,” said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif. To Republicans and moderate Democrats, however, the deficit increase sounds like another retreat from President Barack Obama’s February pledge to invoke a “pay as you go” requirement on many major programs. “The American people know we can’t tax and spend our way back to a growing economy,” said Rep. Mike Pence of Indiana, the House Republican Conference chairman.

Q: A:
How is Paul The Computer Guy different from other computer-repair companies? When they come here, they (customers) get a lot of personal attention. We don’t talk down to people. We kind of think of ourselves as the anti-geeks. All the stereotypes, we’re trying to be the opposite of that. I’m having fun with it. People come in and they smile. They ask, “Are you a franchise?” It’s such a compliment when they ask if I’m a franchise. As much as we can, we make it a lot more pleasant. We talk to them, listen to how they use their computers.
Q: A:
When did you paint the car? I did that at the beginning of 2009. (When I’m stopped at a red light,) I can see people pointing at the car and laughing. The car has probably been the single greatest piece of marketing that we’ve done.

What’s the most common problem your customers
have? It’s about 70 percent viruses. It’s all off the Web. There was a virus being handed out by The New York Times. (In September, the Times became the victim of someone who placed rogue ads on the site, according to its archives.) So you never know. A lot of people still think they don’t need virus protection.

Spencer agreed to answer a few additional questions for The Bulletin on Monday.
Continued from B1 “I really liked programming computers,” Spencer said. “The environment (in the aerospace industry) I didn’t like very much. The people are really, really geeky.” Spencer and Schlosberg met when they lived in L.A., although she had lived in Bend previously. Shortly after they began dating, Schlosberg returned to Central Oregon to write a book, prompting him to travel north several times to see her. They decided to marry and planned to eventually move to Bend, but in 2003, Spencer’s employer, Teledyne Controls, laid him off, fallout from an airline industry trying to recover after the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks. His work, programming embedded systems, did not lend itself to telecommuting, so he knew he would have to retool, he said. When his wife asked what made him think he could start his own IT business, he replied with a variation of the phrase that became his slogan. Spencer began working from his Bend home, splitting his time between designing web pages and computer service. Eventually, he moved the business into a small office on Fourth Street near Franklin. It served as a location for his clients to bring their computers, but he quickly outgrew the office. In Paul The Computer Guy’s new storefront location, Spencer and his associate, Susan Galecki, have the space for an assemblyline setup to service multiple computers at once, such as when running a virus scan. The shop does not sell computers, and Spencer no longer designs Web pages. He strictly performs service and repair, both in his shop and on-site, Galecki, who ran her own computer-repair businesses before moving to Bend, is an Applecertified technician, and Paul The Computer Guy received notification recently that it has been approved as an Apple authorized service provider. When it becomes official, the business will be able to perform warranty work on Apple computers. Spencer also has certification from CompTIA, a nonprofit trade association for IT professionals.

increase the federal deficit by about $133.7 billion over 10 years. Most of the added burden would come this year and next. “We have to start taking concrete steps to curb unnecessary deficit spending, and that means taking a close look at anything that is not offset or that we designate as emergency,” said Rep. Stephanie Herseth Sandlin of South Dakota, a key centrist Democrat. “I am hearing strong concerns about voting on a package with such a large price tag.” Leading Democrats insist the money is needed because of the economic troubles and therefore legitimately can be added to the deficit. The April unemployment rate was 9.9 percent, up from 9.7 percent during the first three months of this year. Last month, 15.3 million people were

jected shortfall over the coming few years, King said the city is worried about having to cut staff from basic services, such as police or fire patrol. “Given the projected shortfall, it’s difficult to avoid some shortfall reductions without some additional revenue,” King said. For its 2011 fiscal year budget, the county government expects employment to be down to 847.7 full-time equivalent employees, down by about 50 from 2008 levels. The Community Development Department was the hardest hit, said Dave Kanner, county administrator. Overall, however, the public sector added 110 jobs between March 2008 and March 2010, according to the Oregon Employment Department, making it one of only a couple of industries to grow during that period. From March to April, the total number of employed people grew in each of Central Oregon’s three counties by 651 to 68,172, while the number of people considered unemployed shrank by 1,174 to 11,380. That resulted in lower unemployment rates when not seasonally adjusted.
Unemployment rates for April
Continued from B1 “This may just be an indicator where we’ll have a year more like last year,” Eagan said. “Even if we added 500 or 700 jobs every couple of months, we’ll still be behind what we were a couple years ago.” Crook County, with an unemployment rate that rose to 16.6 percent from 15.5 percent in March, has the highest rate in the state. Jefferson County isn’t far behind, with a rate that rose 0.8 percentage points to 13.7 percent for April. Despite month-to-month increases, unemployment rates for all three counties remain lower than they were in 2009. The private sector had a much better month for adding jobs than shown by numbers for overall nonfarm employment, which includes state, local and federal government. Though Deschutes County overall only added 70 jobs, the private sector saw the addition of 250 new jobs, including large gains in professional and business services and accommodation and food services. It was a swath of job losses in government, particularly 160 jobs in local government, that brought the overall Deschutes County numbers down. Education accounted for 60 of the

Two members of the Deschutes County Planning Commission are seeking to extend their terms, including a man whom critics have accused of using his position to forward his resort development plans. Former planning commissioners have raised concerns about Commissioner Keith Cyrus’ discussions of his development issues with other commissioners. The concern was: Did Cyrus use his position to advocate for his family’s plan to convert its Aspen Lakes subdivision and golf course east of Sisters into a destination resort? Members of the current planning commission declared in an April roll call vote that no other commissioners had influenced them. The other commissioner requesting to stay on is Richard Klyce, who has served on the commission for about four years and asked the county to appoint him for a second term. The Deschutes County Commission will discuss whether to keep the two men on the commission at a meeting at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday. Cyrus has spent about eight years on the commission and is nearing the end of his second term. He asked the county to extend his time by six months, as allowed when the commission is working on a long-term project. In this case, Cyrus wrote in a letter to the county that it would be difficult for a replacement commissioner to get up-to-speed on the county’s draft comprehensive plan, a blueprint for how the county will develop in the future.

Mountain View Hospital planning expansion By Lauren Dake The Bulletin
Mountain View Hospital, the only hospital in Jefferson County, is planning an expansion officials said will help improve care and reduce inefficiencies. In the 43 years since the hospital was built, it has been remodelled about seven times. And in those years, the type of technologies needed to deliver care, such as mobile X-ray machines, have changed, making it difficult to accommodate in older rooms. “It’s just been patching and trying to adapt,” CEO Eric Buckland said of the past remodels. “The core of the facility is still based on 1967 air conditioning, heating and a host of other things. The delivery of care has morphed over the last 43 years and has resulted in not being as efficient and it doesn’t contribute to achieving the quality of standards to the degree we would like to.” The current laboratories are in a manufactured building outside the hospital, the nurses stations aren’t as close to patient’s rooms as they could be and Buckland said the entrance to the hospital is one of the town’s “best kept secrets.” “So what happens is patients wander around trying to find the front entrance and enter into the emergency department,” Buckland said. “They are redirected down the hallway to our front registration area, that’s not only not user friendly but delays care.” See Hospital / C5
Photos by Andy Tullis
By Andy Tullis The Bulletin
Emotion is the cornerstone of most great photos. The face in any image draws the viewer’s eye and lures him in. Capturing real emotion in the subject’s face is my goal when shooting any assignment because emotional images are the most compelling, the most interesting to look at. They capture the imagination, allowing the viewer to relate to the subject in ways that don’t happen with, say, a landscape shot or other photo that is devoid of emotion. As anyone who has tried to shoot pictures that capture emotion knows, facial expressions change rapidly.
To capture images with emotion, there are some tips you can follow: First, blend into the scene you are shooting. Go into a situation determined to blend in on a social level, becoming less noticeable. That will allow emotional situations to develop in front of you without people becoming self-conscious. Using the zoom function on your camera, or a longer lens, can help with this so you won’t have to be so close to your subject. At this point, you can begin to anticipate people’s emotional reactions and get into position. The scenario that unfolds in front of you will probably change often, with people’s reactions changing accordingly. Be ready to capture them, but wait for the right time to shoot.
Shooting multiple frames is to your advantage, giving you an exponentially better chance to capture the perfect moment. Only you will know how many outtakes and missed shots you have. It’s the perfect image you’re going for. Another thing that can increase your odds of getting the right shot is shooting daily. Practice shooting the candid emotion in the people around you. That will build your ability to position yourself and anticipate shots. But it’ll also help you learn to be quick with your camera so you can capture great moments before they disappear. Getting the perfect image — say in a sprinkler or at a memorial service — can be difficult, but the experience that daily practice brings makes it much easier.
Tempers flare at La Pine council meeting By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin
LA PINE — A meeting of La Pine City councilors to discuss alleged misbehavior by Councilor Adele McAfee brought to light a secretly recorded conversation, a supposed plot to push out the mayor and pleading from some of the 50 people in attendance for the council to focus on city business. The specific purpose of the meeting re- “I apologize mained mys- for the time terious until it began — even wasted on the agenda irrelevant avoided naming who was issues that the subject. don’t move But it was clear from be- the city ginning that forward, not McAfee was one bit.” the target of the allega- — Adele tions leveled McAfee, La by Mayor Pine city Kitty Shields and coun- councilor cilors Doug Ward and Don Greiner. Some of the allegations, though, remained vague. Shields, for instance, said she wouldn’t describe all of them because the meeting was open. Most of the allegations circled around an unspecified dispute with a city employee. Councilor Barbara Hedges was the only councilor to back McAfee. The crowd overwhelmingly supported McAfee and clapped when others spoke in the councilor’s favor. See La Pine / C5

In this image, 2-year-old Jenessa West, in front, with her three sisters Callista, 5, and Veronica and Sarah, 11-year-old twins, all of Bend, accelerate down a hill at Skyline Sports Complex. This image is a single frame from a long sequence I shot as the girls approached me. I had to jump out of the way as they raced past. Remember to be patient and keep shooting until you get the image you want. I had been shooting at this hill for over an hour before this moment happened.
Thirteen-month-old Delaney Wilson, of Bend, receives an unexpected shower while walking in McKay Park with her mother. I shot this image with a Canon EOS-1D, Lens 100mm, ISO 200, f/5.6, shutter 1/500 of a second. I anticipated this moment and got into position. Delaney’s reaction says it all and brings the picture together. I’m pretty sure she was laughing afterward.

A 70-200 telephoto zoom lens, or any type of zoom lens, will allow the photographer to shoot without being too close to the subject. When a photographer is too close, sometimes the subject feels self-conscious and may not react naturally. This may not always be the case, but it’s good to have lens options when heading into a shoot.
Cameras with motor drives can shoot multiple frames per second and become advantageous when trying to capture emotion on someone’s face. Expressions can change very quickly, and having the ability to capture these split-second changes often proves invaluable. Without a motor drive, the photographer will get very good at

knowing when to start shooting and when not to shoot.
FOR EXPERTS Using your camera’s flash while shooting an emotional scene will most likely be distracting to your subject. Instead, adjust the camera’s ISO to increase the sensitivity of the imaging chip. That makes it possible to make an exposure with less light. Being able to set the ISO right before the shoot will come with experimentation and experience.

Suterra issued air quality permit By Kate Ramsayer The Bulletin
The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality has issued an air quality permit to Suterra LLC, a company that makes pest traps and lures, for its Juniper Ridge location in Northeast Bend. The permit allows the company to release certain amounts of volatile organic compounds, nitrogen oxide and hazardous air pollutants, which can cause respiratory problems, cancer or other health issues. However, DEQ officials have said that the amounts released will be very small, and close to the levels at which point the agency would not have to regulate the company at all. The company will also have to develop a plan for detecting and fixing any leaks from the facility. Still, the proposal generated concerns from residents, and a draft of the permit drew three dozen comments from members of the public. Many were concerned about Suterra’s location next to Lava Ridge Elementary School and Sky View Middle School, as well as residential neighborhoods. But DEQ doesn’t determine whether a facility should be in a certain spot or not, said Walt West, senior environmental engineer with the agency. See Suterra / C5

Huge grasshopper outbreak projected The Associated Press PULLMAN — The Pacific Northwest must prepare for the worst grasshopper outbreak in 30 years, according to scientists for Washington State University and the USDA. Researchers found a big increase in the number of grasshopper eggs last fall and said a relatively mild spring has set the stage for a major grasshopper infestation. Last summer, grasshoppers wiped out 7,000 acres of grassland in the high desert of south-
eastern Oregon. The areas considered at most risk in Washington are the high desert regions near Othello, Yakima and the Tri-Cities. The infestation was expected to hit its peak in late July and early August. Federal officials are looking into pesticide options. “In some areas there will indeed be masses,� said Richard Zack, an entomologist at WSU. “Not biblical proportions, but big masses of grasshoppers moving through areas.� Grasshoppers can travel from
30 to 50 miles a day looking for food. Scientists are also warning of a possible outbreak of what is commonly known as the “Mormon Cricket,� an insect that doesn’t fly, but travels in tight packs and devours everything in its path. “So this would be biblical, where when they come through an area, they just start eating everything,� Zack said. “There are massive numbers of them, and then when they exit that area, pretty much anything green is gone.�

O Timber group will not oppose protected area By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press
GRANTS PASS — Conservation groups hoping to expand the wilderness area along Oregon’s most popular whitewater run announced Monday that a major timber industry group won’t oppose the effort to protect the land from logging and mining. Oregon Wild and other groups hope to win wilderness protection for 58,000 acres of federal land, primarily along the upper 24 miles of the wild section of the Rogue River. They want to prevent logging and mining along tributaries where salmon spawn. “The irony is that everyone already thought it was wilderness,” Steve Pedery, conservation director for Oregon Wild, said Monday. “For the public thinking of rafting the Rogue, when they put in at Grave Creek, they think they’re in wilderness. The reality is, until they get down to Mule Creek, there is just this ribbon of land protecting the River.” Wilderness is the most stringent level of protection for federal lands. It typically prohibits logging, motorized travel and new mining claims, while allowing hunting and fishing. Noting they had supported expansion of wilderness areas on Mount Hood, Tom Partin of American Forest Resource Council said they are not always “the black hat guys,” particularly when they are brought into negotiations before a bill goes to Congress. “Let’s face it,” Partin said. “The area you view from the Rogue River is not going to be (logged).
The Daily Astorian
WARRENTON — First came the deer and elk carcasses, the occasional bags of dead fish. Then someone dumped a dead horse along the dirt road near Pat Sullivan’s home in Clatsop County. A month later it’s still there, half covered in a pile of sand and dirt and looking less like a horse with each passing day. Scavengers have stripped the carcass down to the bones, leaving only tangled pieces of a mane and the hide stretched tight across the ribs. The smell — a salty, briny stench — remains. It’s strong enough to tie your face into a knot if the wind blows in the right direction. Beyond the horse, the white bones of elk and deer poke out from piles of dirt and surrounding foliage. Each pile rests on a carpet of hide and hair, apparently the only things scavengers don’t eat. The bones are picked clean. The horse was an unexpected addition to a situation Sullivan says has been constant for several years. “Every summer it stinks to high heaven out here,” said Sullivan, a former commercial fisherman who has lived in the area for 40 years. He called the Clatsop County Sheriff’s Office on behalf of the neighborhood and a deputy came out and took pictures. As far as Sullivan can tell, whenever something — be it deer or elk — is run over, it gets dumped into the narrow fold of dirt road, bushes and trees off of Perkins Lane. The strip runs parallel to U.S. Highway 101 just east of Costco and Home Depot. There’s a simple explanation and it has to do with what happens to animals after they’ve turned snout to pavement. The tiny half acre of land off Perkins Lane belongs to the Oregon Department of Transportation. When an animal is hit on the state highways, often an ODOT crew is called out to clean up the mess. The bodies have to go somewhere. “As far as formal drop sites go, that’s it,” said Lou Torres, an ODOT spokesman. Not all the animals end up
Deputy stops assault on woman in home MEDFORD — A Jackson County sheriff’s deputy and his wife helped save the life of a neighbor whose wrist was slashed. Deputy Michael Hermant was awakened Sunday by a commotion in his living room, said Medford police Lt. Bob Hansen He found Hugo Gonzalez, 32, choking a woman whose wrist was bleeding profusely, Hansen said. The deputy pulled Gonzalez away while his wife, Jesse, a nurse, tended to the wrist. Police said Gonzalez and the injured woman are married. The woman had gone to bed after an argument and awoke to a searing pain to her wrist. After a brief struggle, she fled to the deputy’s home. Hugo Gonzalez is charged with assault and attempted murder.

Apartment fire kills tenant, 54, in Astoria ASTORIA — Authorities say a 54-year-old man died in an apartment fire in Astoria. The name of the victim has yet to be released. His body was found inside the apartment late Saturday, in a hallway leading to the door. Four other people were evacuated from an adjoining unit. Astoria Police Chief Pete Curzon said the fire stemmed from a cooking accident. Investigators are trying to determine if a medical problem played a role. — From wire reports

Rafters run Grave Creek Falls on the Rogue River near Galice. Conservation groups announced Monday that they have an agreement with a major timber industry group not to oppose a proposal for Congress to designate the upper half of the wild section of the Rogue as wilderness, where logging and mining would not be allowed.
FURNITURE OUTLET “WE MAKE IT EASY!”
A lot of it is too rugged and wild. There is not a lot of timber value that we would be giving up if it went into wilderness values.” Partin added that they particularly did not want to see a bill introduced last year to protect 143 miles of Rogue tributaries as wild and scenic, because it doubled the typical quarter-mile no-logging buffers on both sides of the streams and would have established a precedent for future bills.
“The proposal they came up with made a lot of sense to us,” he said. The Rogue River was one of the first rivers in the nation protected by the 1968 Wild and Scenic Rivers Act. In 1978, Congress created the Wild Rogue Wilderness, running from Marial, the approximate halfway point down the 40-mile wild section of the river, to near the takeout at Foster Bar. The expansion would run
from Marial upstream to Grave Creek, where most rafters put on the river, and beyond a few miles nearly to the U.S. Bureau of Land Management Rand Visitor Center, where rafters pick up permits to run the river. Pedery said the bill to protect Rogue tributaries has gotten little traction in Congress, and they hoped to see the Wild Rogue Wilderness proposal included in a national wilderness omnibus bill later this fall.
Roadkill graveyard ‘stinks to high heaven’ By Katie Wilson

“Year-round you get roadkill and you’re in a populated area and you have to dispose of large carcasses. It’s really challenging for us to find the best way to do this. ... We have to be kind of creative.” — Lou Torres, ODOT spokesman
at Perkins Lane — sometimes an animal is hit near state land and crews can dispose of the carcass out there. For the rest, though, Perkins Lane is the final destination. To cut down on odors and potential hazards, ODOT crews try to bury the carcasses on the far point of the property. The system works most of the time, but not always. Problems usually start when there’s a busy weekend, Torres said.
The unexpected Sometimes crews are swamped with animals and the best they can do is dump a carcass and throw a bit of dirt on top. Other times, something unexpected shows up on the side of the road. The horse, for example, was hit on a highway and no one stepped forward to claim it. The ODOT crew then had to figure out what to do with a substantially larger animal carcass than normal. They covered it with sand and dirt — most of which blew off the carcass when strong winds swept through, Sullivan said. But with no real landfills or rendering facilities in the area, the simple “dig a hole and fill it back up” plan is the one ODOT has to turn to, Torres said. “Year-round you get roadkill and you’re in a populated area and you have to dispose of large carcasses,” he said. “It’s really challenging for us to find the best way to do this. ... We have to be kind of creative.” But fueled by complaints and concerns from the Perkins Lane neighbors, ODOT is looking for other solutions. In Heppner, more 200 miles inland from Warrenton, Jeff Moore, an environmental pro-
But, Moore said, “the moisture and temperature issues are not insurmountable.” Though still in its experimental phase, Moore thinks the project is a perfect solution to one of Oregon’s more constant problems: What to do with roadkill.
‘All well and good’ gram coordinator with ODOT, has been working on a project that could clean up the dumping problems and turn useless, smelly carcasses into compost. In the rural, farmland area, they’ve built a 50 by 50 foot concrete slab. On top of this are four 20 by 20 foot boxes surrounded by a concrete berm. Inside each box is a layer of wood chips. As roadkill comes in, crews dump the carcasses on top of the woodchips, lay down another layer of woodchips, add water and let the whole mess cook for about six months. They monitor the temperature and moisture levels — “Make sure we’re getting the right bug cultures,” Moore said — and the end result: usable compost. “It’s a pretty basic, simple setup,” Moore said. Currently, the compost is recycled back into the pile to help cook the next batch. The goal is build up a surplus that could be used in ODOT landscaping projects. The compost would be tested first to make sure it’s safe, Moore said.
Compost system People near Heppner were wary of the plan at first, afraid the site would attract coyotes, who would, in turn, prey on livestock. ODOT obtained land use approvals and permits from DEQ and Moore said that, so far, the compost system has actually helped control the odors that would otherwise intrigue scavengers. Heppner’s dry climate made the composting process easier. Rain, along with the attendant increase in moisture and potential for water run-off, is not a problem. If the compost project makes it out to the North Coast, it would need to be modified to fit the wetter climate.
“At the end of the year, we’ll sit down with DEQ and talk about the results,” he said. “I’m assuming we’ll go ahead with it because it’s been going really well.” In the meantime, back at Perkins Lane, Sullivan hopes ODOT at least starts digging deeper holes until they find a better solution. Exposed carcasses attract potentially dangerous scavengers, and kids play along the dirt road that leads to the ODOT property, he said. They ride their bikes and walk their dogs. “It’s all well and good until someone gets hurt or gets sick,” he said.

2011 Legislature’s most crucial job
T
he November 2010 campaign season couldn’t ask for a more dramatic kickoff than the gloomy budget outlook released last week by the Governor’s Reset Cabinet. The report stark-
ly describes Oregon’s looming bottom-line challenges. And through its timing and its conclusions, it nudges voters to ask the following question: Which gubernatorial and legislative candidates should be sent to Salem for the crucial 2011 session? The answer begins with the nature of the problem, which, simply stated, is that Oregon probably won’t have enough money to provide services at current levels for many years. The general fund shortfall for the 2011-2013 biennium alone could hit $2.5 billion. Two and a half billion is a big, scary number. But the most meaningful element of the budget equation is the “current service level” concept, which the Reset Cabinet’s report describes as a “business-as-usual benchmark.” It assumes that the state government will continue not only to provide the same services, but also to cover, unchallenged, the ever-escalating costs of doing so. Costs increase for a number of reasons, including the salaries and benefits earned by the people who provide services. Thus, according to the Reset Cabinet, will “current service level” spending in 2011-2013 reflect an increase of almost $800 million in personnel costs. These include the elimination of furlough days and accumulation of tenure-related (“step”) pay hikes ($148 million); maintenance of current health benefits for state workers ($104 million); potential 2011 “cost of living” pay hikes ($114 million); and, of course, increased state and school district PERS costs ($430 million). Meanwhile, the demand for safetynet services, frequently cited as a reason for government growth during difficult times, is expected to account for an increase of only $350 million. The anticipated shortfall, again, simply reflects the gap between anticipated revenues and anticipated “current service level” expenditures. That gap can be narrowed or elimi-
Voters should recognize ... that in November they’ll be selecting people not only to address the shortfall, but also, in doing so, to reshape state government. nated either by collecting significantly more money, which the Reset Cabinet doesn’t consider likely, or by clamping down on spending. And to control spending, the state must cut services or rein in the pay and benefits earned by people who provide those services. None of these options is pleasant, yet the next governor and the 2011 Legislature will have the unenviable task of making the state’s expenditures match its revenues. It will, in fact, be the most important — and difficult — task state leaders face next year. And that means legislative and gubernatorial candidates should embrace it as a campaign issue. How would they address the state’s budget shortfall, and how is their approach better than their opponent’s? Voters should recognize, too, that in November they’ll be selecting people not only to address the shortfall, but also, in doing so, to reshape state government. Gov. Kulongoski created the Reset Cabinet, but his successor — Chris Dudley or John Kitzhaber — and next year’s Legislature will consider the options the panel ultimately develops. The five months between now and November should give candidates plenty of time to think and talk about the problem.
Good compromise T
hough we’d have preferred no increase in Deschutes County’s building fees next year, the compromise reached by the county’s budget committee is at least the next best thing. City of Bend budgeters should take note as they draw up their financial plans. Both county and city have been considering raising building and planning fees by 15 percent for the coming year, which begins July 1. Their reasoning makes sense, so far as it goes. With building down dramatically in these parts, the once self-financing departments can no longer operate on a pay-as-you-go basis. Even with staff reductions in both departments, it’s costing more to keep the doors open than they collect in fees. County officials hoped to cut the subsidy they pay to keep Community Development Department doors open by more than
half; the 15 percent fee hike would make that possible. Unfortunately, the fee hike would fall on what is arguably the hardesthit segment of the local economy, construction, by increasing the cost of putting up houses, offices and everything else. If the industry really is in the beginnings of a recovery, fee increases certainly won’t help keep it going and could have the reverse effect. The county’s budget committee recognized the problem when it voted to increase fees by only 5 percent. To make up the difference the county subsidy for the department will not be cut as much as budget planners had hoped, though it will go down substantially. It’s a good compromise, one that saves builders much of the pain the higher fees would impose but still saves the county money.
My Nickel’s Worth Help soldiers Our soldiers came home a few Sundays ago. We welcomed them with flags and welcome home signs and tried to say thank you. It is good to have them home. Now what can we do to help them? Some of them need jobs. They need our support when they struggle with the details of getting settled back into their lives. Their families need our understanding too. It usually takes some time. Lots of them have been through this a few years ago as this was the second deployment. The Veterans Administration is better set up to help them than ever before and that is great but they can’t do it alone. We may not know of any of them personally. Keep your eyes and hearts open. Look for a chance to help. It will come. Sandy Crippen Bend
misconception. Sen. Lindsay Graham of South Carolina is absolutely correct in his opposition to the bill because there are no controls governing what someone has to do to get on the terrorist list and absolutely no judicial or other form of review to get someone off the list who should not be there. This means, in effect, that all you have to do to get on the list is irritate a well-placed government official like Eric Holder or Janet Napolitano. A publication released by Homeland Security in April, 2009, “Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment,” labels gun owners and military veterans as among those whom the current administration would classify as “potential” terrorists. A year later, would they also include tea party members? How about ordinary Republicans? Donald Oliver Redmond
Gun rights
Tree overreaction
In her May 9 column, “Defending the gun rights of those on terrorist watch,” Gail Collins of The New York Times argues that it is wrong to oppose a bill in Congress that would bar the sale of a firearms to anyone who is on the “FBI terrorist watch list.” Her point appears to be that if someone has been placed on that list, that person must be a terrorist regardless of how or why that person got on the list. This is a very dangerous
We are trying to do the right thing in supporting our city’s clean air by planting trees and flowers and in general maintaining our property and make our beautiful city of Bend a better place to work and play outdoors. Yet someone reported us to the city for one of our aspen trees’ small 8-inchlong branches that were growing out to the sidewalk. There was still plenty of sidewalk to walk on. I know that we are supposed to keep the sidewalk
clear, which we do other than these small budding branches, but it was rather petty that we were reported to the city. The city workers have by far more important things to take care of besides something so minute. I must thank the workers that did cut the branches. They were very polite and did what they had to do. But please, people, unless this is posing some kind of danger, please enjoy the greenery. Margaret Villa Bend
Let them eat In regard to the “Sea Lions may face control program” article, I want to point out some rather obvious but not mentioned details. Oregon House Speaker Dave Hunt says “Oregon city fishermen” are asking him for help because the hungry California sea lions are “stealing” their fish. First of all, sea lions don’t have the option of going to the supermarket. Maybe the fishermen are stealing food from the sea lions. The Humane Society says that “hydroelectric dams and fishermen account for nearly all salmon taken in the Northwest and sea lions account for only a tiny fraction.” The sport fishing industry perhaps can find other places to fish. They sound like whiny babies to me. As for Dave Hunt, shouldn’t he be focusing on all the other serious problems our state faces rather than pander to the lobbyists of the sports fishermen?

What goes on in the minds of office-seekers? T
he candidates subject themselves to all those boring chicken dinners, weekends on the road and having to flatter unpleasant people. Their campaign workers, contributors and media friends struggle to pull them over the finish line. The politicians taste victory, or at least a commanding lead in the polls, and — boom! They are outed in a sexual indiscretion, found making an easyto-catch lie or flattened by a journalist’s obvious question. What was Indiana Rep. Mark Souder thinking when he had an affair and let his mistress interview him in a video discussion on abstinence? Had the Republican not put the public through years of moralistic preaching, his private meanderings might have been forgiven. But Souder had turned his personal hypocrisy into a crashing spectacle. Even New York Gov. Eliot Spitzer, a Democrat in a fairly liberal
state, couldn’t survive visiting a call girl after railing against prostitution. Self-righteous moralizers fall off their pedestals all the time. It happens like clockwork. More interesting is the psychology that makes them think they’re going to get away with it. Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal spent last Tuesday in a press conference called to explain his false claim to have served in Vietnam. (It was reported everywhere with a 76trombone band.) Although the Democratic senatorial candidate has truthfully described his Vietnam era activities in recent months, he did tell a group of veterans and elderly in 2008 that “we have learned something important since the days that I served in Vietnam, and you exemplify it.” Though troubling, this is not careerending, as some lies are. Blumenthal did serve in the Marines Corps Reserve, and exaggerations about military ser-
FROMA HARROP vice are commonplace. What did boggle the mind was seeing a seasoned and methodical politician trying to pull that off. Unfortunately for Blumenthal, his Republican foe has a fat checkbook and a team of investigators looking for his inconsistencies. Fortunately, said opponent is Linda McMahon, CEO of World Wrestling Entertainment. Her business traffics in steroids, filthy language, sex and violence — and markets it all to children. Furthermore, McMahon’s staff had boasted about feeding the scoop to the
media. Finding dirt is to be expected in the course of political battle. Bragging about humiliating an opponent is another thing — especially in Connecticut, where politics tend to be civil. Days after the scandal broke, Blumenthal was eking out a lead in the polls. He has months to continue apologizing, and McMahon has a mouth made for self-destruction. Connecticut Republicans could have chosen Rob Simmons, instead. A former congressman from New London, Simmons is both a gentleman and a genuine Vietnam vet with two Bronze Stars. He was also more qualified, not that anyone cared. Shortly after winning the Republican senatorial nomination in Kentucky, Rand Paul has made two major-league gaffes. He had to cancel a date with “Meet the Press” for self-preservation. Non-Republicans had started asking him questions in public. Did he think
that wouldn’t happen? Paul’s remark that he would not have supported the Civil Rights Act — followed by a denial — was not tricked from him. It flowed out of a discussion with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow on Paul’s trademark issue — radically shrinking the size and scope of government. A holder of offbeat political views should have ironed out responses to tough philosophical questions by now. Paul also called President Obama’s criticism of BP’s role in the Gulf of Mexico oil disaster “un-American.” His handlers clearly have their work cut out for them. None of these politicians suffered a slip of tongue. All had been through the electoral wringer. Was it arrogance? The thrill of risk-taking? What could they possibly have been thinking?

Scandal-tainted lawmaker Donald Lukens dies at 79 By Douglas Martin New York Times News Service
Donald E. Lukens, who helped push his party to the right as a vigorous leader of the Young Republicans in the 1960s and who resigned from Congress in scandal two decades later, died Saturday in Dallas. He was 79. The cause was cancer, his friend Robert Hastings said. Lukens had had throat cancer in the 1980s. As a young man Lukens was president of the national Young Republicans, then parlayed that position into winning a congressional seat in 1966. He was among the first congressmen to endorse Gov. Ronald Reagan of California for president. After a failed run for governor in 1970, Lukens spent 15 years in the Ohio Senate. He returned to Congress in 1987. His fall could hardly have been more precipitous. He was convicted in May 1989 in Ohio state court of offenses relating to paying a teenager to have sex with him. Free on bond pending his appeal, he refused Republicans’ demands that he resign. But he was defeated in the May 1990 Republican primary by John Boehner, then a state representative and now minority leader of the House of Representatives. Lukens finally resigned in October 1990 after the House Ethics Committee voted to investigate new charges that he had propositioned a young House elevator
La Pine Continued from C1 Shields opened the meeting with a statement and asked for a respectful discussion. But Hedges said whatever was coming was unfair because it had been kept secret from McAfee. “I’ve come to this meeting with absolutely no knowledge of what’s going on,” Hedges said. “I’ve been calling it an inquisition because I feel the fact that Councilor McAfee has not been told what (it’s about), that’s what it is to me.” During the meeting, several brief disputes broke out between councilors. During one exchange, Shields disputed that she’d ever said McAfee was the target of “charges.” As the exchange was happening, though, someone passed up a small tape player. McAfee said the mayor had used “charges” during a phone call and, holding the tape player, McAfee asked to play a tape of the conversation. Shields said she was “shocked” the conversation had been taped, and McAfee never played the tape. “I think the points been made. Let’s move on,” McAfee said. Councilors took turns. McAfee passed on replying until all the other councilors had spoken. Shields criticized how McAfee supposedly operates behind the scenes. McAfee, allegedly, pressured Shields into holding an executive session to talk about another councilor. Shields also said that McAfee attempted to block Greiner from joining the council because McAfee wanted a voting bloc. Hedges disputed that. Much of Shields’ criticism re-
Suterra Continued from C1 “The DEQ doesn’t get into land use issues, and where something is located,” West said. “But what we can do, once someone is located near a school or neighborhood, (is make sure) that they meet and follow all the state and federal environmental regulations.” Others had concerns about the chemicals themselves, and potential impacts. But the emissions will be at very low quantities, West said. The DEQ ran computer models of the emissions of the most prevalent hazardous air pollutant toluene, for example, and found that its highest concentration would be at 41 feet above ground at Suterra’s property line. There, the compound would be at 6 parts per billion, he said, noting that DEQs standard is 106
operator. Lukens lost his appeal and served a 30-day jail term in 1991. In 1996, he was convicted of accepting a bribe from two Ohio businessmen and sentenced to 30 months in federal prison. His downfall was a far cry from the golden image Lukens had cultivated as a first-term congressman in his 30s with Hollywood looks and the nickname Buz.
Young Republicans He had ascended to Congress after leading the Young Republican National Federation. His election as chairman of the organization in 1963, at a convention marked by filibusters and fistfights, was a significant victory for conservative Republicans over party moderates. Gov. Nelson Rockefeller of New York, said Lukens and his allies had employed “the tactics of totalitarianism.” Donald Edgar Lukens was born in Harveysburg, Ohio, on Feb. 11, 1931. He graduated from Ohio State University in 1954 with a degree in sociology. A member of the Air Force ROTC in college, he served six years in the Air Force, specializing in counterintelligence and criminal investigation. As he rose through the ranks of Young Republicans, he cultivated prominent conservatives like Rep. John Ashbrook of Ohio, William Rusher, the editor of The National Review, and other influential sup-
porters of Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona in his successful quest for the 1964 Republican presidential nomination. One of Lukens’ more provocative proposals was to place 100 young Republicans in jobs in newspapers, radio and television. Editor & Publisher, a trade magazine, called the idea a “great disservice” to unbiased journalism. Lukens held various paying political jobs, including minority counsel for the House Rules Committee. He was elected to Congress in 1966 as a strong hawk on the Vietnam War. During his first four years in the House, according to a 1978 House Ethics Committee report, Lukens accepted two $500 gifts from Tongsun Park, a South Korean businessman who was indicted in a bribery scandal involving members of Congress. Even during his 15 years in the Ohio Senate, he remained a conservative presence in national politics. For example, he wrote a letter in 1979 soliciting money for anti-abortion efforts that called several U.S. senators “baby killers.” When he ran for Congress in 1986, The National Journal reported that he had received substantial support from fundamentalist Christian organizations. In 1987, he joined Rep. Newt Gingrich and other congressmen to pay for a book lambasting the House titled “The House of Ill Repute.”
volved around a recent conference call to discuss an employee issue. During the call, which the city’s attorney and another attorney were on, McAfee allegedly said she knew of an employee who was considering suing the city. “That puts the city in jeopardy,” Shields said. “I think we have a fiduciary duty to let legal council know and to let the council know.” When his turn came, Ward described how someone, whom he initially refused to name, had threatened him over a disagreement. Though he hinted he was speaking of McAfee, Ward said revealing who threatened him would only cause that person embarrassment. Ward said everyone in the room knew who he was speaking of, but after several shouts from the audience — “Name them” and “Does anybody know?” — and McAfee’s agreement, Ward relented. Pointing at McAfee, Ward said, “You, you threatened me over the telephone.” Ward described a call during which McAfee told him she disagreed with him over his supposed plan to fire an employee. During the call, McAfee also told Ward that he was, “rude, loud” among other characteristics. “You said, ‘We will take care of you.’ That’s a threat. That’s what happened,” Ward said. In her response to the criticisms, McAfee said much of the ill-will arose from her questioning how much the city was spending on its lawyer. McAfee said she thought the city’s legal spending — the city budgeted about $130,000 for legal fees this year — was “excessive.” McAfee also said she challenged Ward over how he han-
dled a city employment issue. That dispute, McAfee said, led to the conference call that Shields described. “There is little tolerance for dissenting opinion,” McAfee said of how the council treats disagreements. McAfee wanted the meeting to happen in open session, for people to listen to what the criticisms of her work were. At the end of her statement, she said she would not apologize for how she has worked on council. She did apologize to taxpayers, though. “I apologize for the time wasted on irrelevant issues that don’t move the city forward, not one bit,” McAfee said. Then it was the turn of people in attendance to speak. Most of the speakers criticized either Ward, Shields or both. Robin Mirrasoul, of La Pine, stood in front of the councilors as she spoke. She told Ward that he can be intimidating and that he’d behaved that way during the meeting. Former Mayor Stu Martinez, who stood watching from the back of the meeting, said he was so upset by the meeting that he almost walked out. “My heart is breaking right now,” Martinez said. But Martinez said he looked forward to when La Pine hires a full-time city manager. He told the crowd that being a councilor was difficult and that the current ones were trying hard. “Push forward,” he told the councilors. “Respect each other and let the manager manage when the manager gets here.”
parts per billion. At the 106 parts per billion level, toluene could cause people who were exposed to it constantly for 70 years have a 1 in 1 million chance of getting ill or developing cancer from the chemical. After reviewing and respond-
ing to the comments, West said, the DEQ decided to issue the permit without major changes from the draft version.

Planning Continued from C1 While Cyrus has been careful to recuse himself from decisions that would affect his family’s resort development plans, he has raised the issue more than once on the planning commission and acknowledged he discussed it occasionally with other commissioners outside meetings. Cyrus addressed the question of whether he sought to influence decisions that affect his interests, in his formal request for a term extension. “I feel I bring a unique understanding of agriculture, as well as a background in resort development and surface mining issues to the table,” Cyrus wrote in an April 8 letter to the county. “I have always been careful to separate my personal issues from the issues of public good and will continue to declare any potential conflicts as well as recuse myself when appropriate.”
Comments suggest divide on Cyrus term The topic of whether to extend Cyrus’ term arose during an April 7 county commission meeting, and commissioners’ comments indicated they disagreed on whether to extend Cyrus’ term. Commissioner Tammy Baney did not want to extend Cyrus’ term, she said. In response, Commissioner Dennis Luke said it is difficult in a county as small as Deschutes County to find planning commissioners without any interests in some of the issues that come before them. “I find it hard to criticize someone if they truly believe what they’re talking about,” Luke said in April. “That’s their right.” The commission dropped the subject of whether to extend Cyrus’ term, although Commissioner Alan Unger said in a later interview he felt Cyrus has been able to set aside his personal interests on the planning commission. Unger also addressed Klyce’s request to be reappointed, and said he asked Planning Commissioner Christen Brown whether Klyce was open to other people’s opinions and listened to them. “I wasn’t sort of seeing that,” Unger said. “It seemed there was a different attitude there, and do we want to continue with that attitude for four more years?”
Hospital Continued from C1 Mountain View is run by a hospital district and an elected board of directors. Buckland’s position is contracted through the St. Charles Health System. He said the hospital’s three fastest-growing areas — imaging, surgery and emergency department — are all placed near each other in the current building and none can expand without infringing on the space of the other. “We don’t have any latitude,” Buckland said.
Some funding comes from stimulus bond The estimated cost of replacing the facility and remodeling small parts of it is approximately $25 million to $30 million. Buckland said the project would use a bond available through the economic stimulus package to fund some of the project. “With a budget of that size, we will have a bid out with a

Unger said Brown responded that Klyce works well on the planning commission. Klyce said Monday that he wants to serve a second term on the commission “simply because I find the work interesting, and I want to help shape the county’s future.”
Commission also meeting on resorts At a 10 a.m. formal commission meeting that is also on Wednesday, The county commission is set to deliberate on an issue that will affect Cyrus’ resort development plans. The commission could vote on whether to adopt an ordinance that will lay out which properties can be added or removed from the county’s resort zone map. For a property to be eligible for resort development, it must be on the map. Deschutes County staff had proposed removing subdivisions including Aspen Lakes from the county’s destination resort zone, but the planning commission reversed course and recommended map criteria that would allow Aspen Lakes to stay on the resort map. The ordinance before the county commission Wednesday does not follow the planning commission’s latest recommendations. Other issues to be discussed at the 1:30 p.m. Wednesday meeting include whether the county should lower the speed limit on Skyliners Road west of Bend, where bicyclists and motorists have had conflicts, and whether to decrease the county’s fee to pay for the impact of development on roads, for homes inside resorts. Currently, the speed limit is 55 mph on much of Skyliners Road, and the county commission will discuss whether to lower it to 45 mph.

preference to local subcontractors,” he said. Buckland said he expects the project to break ground sometime in the spring or early summer of 2012. Construction is likely to start this fall. When complete, the building would be about 110,000 square feet, currently it’s close to about 70,000 square feet.
‘Springboard’ “We’re very excited about this, it will enable us in many ways not only to better serve our community but also springboard us into the future,” he said. Mountain View Hospital Board of Director’s Chairwoman Janelle Orcutt said this has been a long-time coming. “We have to do something,” she said. “Doing nothing is not an option. ... It’s what the community needs, a step forward for us.” Lauren Dake can be reached at 541-419-8074 or at ldake@bendbulletin.com.

Competency hearing set in slaying The Associated Press ROSEBURG — A July 22 hearing has been scheduled to determine whether the owner of an Oregon-based boat company is competent to stand trial on a murder charge. Police in the Washington coastal town of Long Beach say Brian Brush shot 45-year-old
Lisa Bonney in broad daylight last September, during an annual classic car rally that draws thousands of people to the Long Beach Peninsula. A psychiatrist at a Washington state psychiatric hospital recently completed an evaluation of Brush’s competency, but prosecutors declined to discuss
the results. An evaluation at the same hospital last fall found Brush competent to stand trial. His defense attorney questioned the validity of that assessment. Brush, the owner of Roseburg-based North River Boats, is lodged at the Washington State Correctional Institute.

Funeral director Mel Friend stands in a showroom of “green” caskets and shrouds at Litwiller-Simonsen Funeral Home and Crematorium in Ashland. The city decided last week to allow burials in an environmentally sensitive way in city cemeteries without concrete liners or vaults. In a green burial, a body is placed in a biodegradable casket or shroud and lowered directly into the ground.
‘Green burials’ allowed in Ashland city cemeteries By Vickie Aldous The Associated Press
ASHLAND — Residents who want to bury loved ones in an environmentally sensitive way in Ashland no longer have to place the casket or shroud inside a concrete or metal liner or vault. The Ashland City Council voted last week to allow such “green” burials in city cemeteries. Previously, the Ashland Municipal Code required the use of liners or vaults to prevent settling of the ground at the grave site. City staff members who manage city cemeteries said they expect some settling to occur with green burials but that the problem isn’t anything they can’t handle. The city of Ashland made the change because it has been receiving requests from residents that green burials be allowed, said Ashland Public Works Director Mike Faught. “It’s a step forward for those
folks who want a natural burial, without having to have a concrete vault,” Litwiller-Simonsen Funeral Home and Crematory Assistant Manager Mel Friend said of the recent municipal code change. With modern cemeteries, bodies began to be buried close together, which is one reason people started using concrete or metal liners or vaults. If a person is buried without a liner or vault, the integrity of the gravesite could be compromised if a new grave is dug next to it, Friend cautioned. For a full green burial, a body is not embalmed. It is placed in a biodegradable casket or shroud and lowered directly into the ground, with no liner or vault, he said. Litwiller-Simonsen Funeral Home and Crematory, located in Ashland, offers green burial services and products, including pine caskets that aren’t finished with lacquer or toxic chemicals,
sustainably harvested woven seagrass or willow caskets and linen shrouds. “The purpose is to allow the body to go back to the earth more quickly than in a metal casket,” Friend said. The funeral home offers refrigeration of bodies so that embalming fluids don’t have to be used as preservatives. Friend said there are no plots left for green burials in the city-owned historic Ashland Cemetery on East Main Street or the historic Hargadine Cemetery above North Main Street, but there are plots available for green burials in the city’s historic Mountain View Cemetery on Ashland Street. While green burials may seem new, they actually represent a return to burial techniques that were common before the 20th century, Friend said. “It’s a revisiting of the way it used to be,” he said.
PORTLAND — FBI statistics released Monday show crime falling in Oregon’s four largest cities. Violent crime dropped in Portland, Eugene and Gresham in 2009 while it remained essentially unchanged in Salem. Portland, Eugene and Salem all saw a large decline in property crime while it was up slightly in Gresham. There were 19 murders in Portland last year — seven fewer than in 2008. The drop in Oregon crime follows a national trend. The FBI says the violent crime rate in the United States has gone down three years in a row. The property crime rate has fallen for seven consecutive years. The statistics released Monday are only preliminary. Final figures are due this fall.
State sues nonprofits over use of vet funds EUGENE — Oregon Attorney General John Kroger says some nonprofits that claim to be raising money for veterans are instead keeping the money for themselves. Kroger says the state has sued three of these nonprofits, alleging they keep up to 80 percent of the money raised. Kroger says the state has already reached settlements with Center Stage Attractions and The Veterans Fund. Center Stage, a professional fundraising firm based in Florida, operated a call center in Salem for its client, The Veterans Fund. Center Stage was accused of making false statements to potential donors, including falsely claiming how donations would benefit veterans.
Kroger says the Veterans Fund allowed Center Stage to keep 80 percent of the money raised in its name and did little to monitor Center Stage’s conduct.
Igniter, accelerant found in Tigard home TIGARD — Washington County Sheriff’s Office deputies are investigating an incident in which a Tigard homeowner discovered a timed device near a liquid accelerant. The 30-year-old man told deputies he discovered the mysterious device in his home Sunday after scaring away intruders. He then tossed it into the backyard. The Portland Police Bureau’s Bomb Squad determined the device was a timer with a sparking mechanism, not an explosive.
No injuries were reported, but the accelerant caused some damage to the home.

Somehow, volleyball becomes a lot more glamorous — and forgiving — when you add sand. “There isn’t a professional grass league anywhere,” says Eric Staley, founder of Bend Beach Volleyball and a board member with the Bend Volleyball Association. “You know when you watch the Olympics or the AVP (Association of Volleyball Professionals) the court surface they play on is sand.

COLUMBIA, Mo. — After scoring just 22 points all season in mop-up duty, Missouri freshman forward Tyler Stone has no illusions of bolting college for the NBA after a single year. Instead, the 6-foot-7 Memphis native is a different sort of one-and-done: a college athlete leaving a school sooner than his family expected as a prized recruit takes over his scholarship. “I can’t see how a school can love him to death one year and the next year cut him loose,” said his mother, Sharon Stone. “They had to get rid of somebody.” The NCAA says its rules are clear. Athletic scholarships are one-year, “merit-based” awards
that require both demonstrated academic performance as well as “participation expectations” on the playing field. College sport watchdogs — and, occasionally, athletes themselves — tell a different story. They see unkept promises and bottom-line decisions at odds with the definition of student-athlete. Those discrepancies apparently have caught the attention of the U.S. Justice Department. Its antitrust division is investigating the one-year renewable scholarship, with agents interviewing NCAA officials and member schools. A Justice Department spokeswoman declined comment because the probe, announced on May 6, is ongoing. See Scholarships / D5

Brown was the most successful coach in franchise history. In five seasons, he led the Cavs to the playoffs every year, to the finals in 2007 and to 127 wins in the past two seasons. But Brown failed to win a championship, and after Cleveland’s second straight early exodus from the postseason — and with James about to explore free agency, owner Dan Gilbert decided to make a change. • Nash has broken nose, says he will be fine: Steve Nash has a broken nose but says he doesn’t expect it to be a problem for him in Game 4 of the Western Conference finals.

• Paterson submits bill to loan NYRA $25 million: New York state is expected to loan the New York Racing Association $25 million to preserve thoroughbred racing seasons at Belmont, Saratoga and Aqueduct. The NYRA loan is included in a measure from Gov. David Paterson to extend basic state operations in the absence of an approved budget for this year. It would have to be repaid by March 31 or within 30 days of a state pact with a contractor to install video lottery terminals at Aqueduct.
PARIS — The French-speaking voice booming through loudspeakers at Court Philippe Chatrier recited Roger Federer’s bona fides during prematch introductions, detailing his six titles at Wimbledon, five at the U.S. Open, four at the Australian Open and then, reaching a crescendo, concluded this way: “One at Roland Garros, here, last year!” Federer smiled. Fans roared, many rising to applaud. Playing at the French Open as defending champion for the first time, Federer gave ’em plenty to cheer about Monday, dipping into his considerable repertoire of shotmaking in a 6-4, 6-1, 6-2 victory over 71st-ranked Peter Luczak of Australia. With the end result far from in doubt, Federer turned the outing into a glorified practice session. He closed one extended exchange by slicing a backhand with so much spin that, after landing, the ball darted back toward the net, away from Luczak. Federer acknowledged the cheers by raising an index finger, lest somebody forget he’s No. 1. “If it was anyone else, I’d be getting pretty angry,” said Luczak, whose career mark in Grand Slam matches fell to 5-14. “He just had me on a string and just (was) toying with me at the end. I think he was enjoying it.” Federer made only 11 unforced errors, won 50 of 64 points on his serve and faced one break point, which he saved. “I was pretty relaxed,” said Fe-

Reps. Linda Sanchez, D-Calif., and Anthony Weiner, D-N.Y., questioned Drs. Richard Ellenbogen and Hunt Batjer, the new co-chairmen of the NFL’s head, neck and spine medical committee. Sanchez and Weiner wondered why Ellenbogen and Batjer do not have stronger roles in gathering data about equipment. — From wire reports

IN THE BLEACHERS
The Associated Press
derer, who can tie Pete Sampras’ record of 286 total weeks at No. 1 in the rankings June 7. “It was like a perfect match to get off the French Open campaign, really.” Other top players — even those who also won — were less pleased with their performances on Day 2, when a searing sun carried the temperature into the 80s and made the most grueling of tennis’ surfaces even more of a test of fitness. The No. 1-ranked woman, Serena Williams, for example, found little to smile about after following Federer into the main stadium and beating Stefanie Voegele of Switzerland 7-6 (2), 6-2. “I definitely didn’t feel good about it,” said Williams, who counts the 2002 French Open among her 12 major championships. “At least I won. I think I’m still in the tournament; that’s what matters.” She compiled 10 aces, converted three of three break points and accumulated a 28-13 edge in winners. Asked what pleased her about the way she played, Williams replied: “Across the board, nothing, really, just to be honest.” It was not the sort of afternoon for long outings, but some players just can’t seem to help themselves, such as No. 4 Andy Murray and former top-10 player Richard Gasquet of France. Gasquet started well, but Murray finished well and won 4-6, 6-7 (5), 6-4, 6-2, 6-1. Murray also lost the first two sets before beating Gasquet in five at Wimbledon in 2008. Murray’s body language was about as bad as his play in the early going, and he pounded a fist into his forehead after blowing one
TENNIS backhand slice attempt in the third set. Yet it was Gasquet, who missed last year’s French Open after testing positive for cocaine, that faded. So Murray — a 2009 quarterfinalist at Roland Garros, twice the runnerup at other major tournaments, and Britain’s best hope for its first male Grand Slam champion since the 1930s — still will be around in the second round. “He’s always fighting, fighting, putting all the balls in the court,” Gasquet said. “Even if he’s not playing so good, he’s very tough to beat.” Two seeded Spaniards lost, No. 21 Tommy Robredo and No. 27 Feliciano Lopez, while Monday’s winners included No. 3 Novak Djokovic, No. 12 Fernando Gonzalez, No. 13 Gael Monfils, No. 14 Ivan Ljubicic, No. 19 Nicolas Almagro, No. 25 Marcos Baghdatis, and three U.S. men: No. 17 John Isner, Taylor Dent and Mardy Fish. The 29-year-old Dent never before had won a French Open match and remarked with a wide smile: “Better late than never, right?” He pointed out that the hot and dry weather has transformed the clay, making the surface “really quick. It’s almost like a hard court out there.” One figures that should bode well for him and the 6-foot-9 Isner, as well as two other big-serving Americans, Andy Roddick and Sam Querrey, who are on Tuesday’s schedule. Remember: No U.S. man has reached the French Open quarterfinals since Andre Agassi
Christophe Ena / The Associated Press
Switzerland’s Roger Federer gestures after winning a point against Australia’s Peter Luczak during their first-round match of the French Open tennis tournament at the Roland Garros stadium in Paris, Monday. in 2003. “If it’s fast, it’s ideal for the Americans, more so than any other type of players out here,” Dent said. “We always have that label, like, ‘Oh, you’re American. First round. See you later.’ So I think we get a lot of pride from winning matches here.” There were zero notable upsets among the women, and Williams will be joined in the second round by No. 3 Caroline Wozniacki, No. 4 Jelena Jankovic, No. 5 Elena Dementieva, No. 7 Sam Stosur, No. 8 Agnieszka Radwanska, No. 11 Li Na, No. 17 Francesca Schiavone and No. 24 Lucie Safarova.

Magic take Celtics in OT
Some big names will be watching, not driving, at Indy
By Jimmy Golen The Associated Press
BOSTON — Put away the brooms. Hold off on those “Beat L.A!” chants. The Boston Celtics still have some work to do before they can play for their second NBA title in three years. Dwight Howard had 32 points and 16 rebounds, and Jameer Nelson made back-to-back threepointers in overtime to lead the Orlando Magic to a 96-92 win over Boston on Monday night to avoid a four-game sweep in the Eastern Conference finals. Dressing in the same locker room where the Philadelphia Flyers celebrated their comeback from a 3-0 deficit against the Boston Bruins in the NHL’s East semifinals, the Magic avoided elimination and sent the series back to Orlando for Game 5 on Wednesday night. The Bruins also lost Game 4 in overtime. “We know that we were down 3-0, and we didn’t want to go home (for the season),” Howard said. “It starts with me and Jameer. Me and Jameer showed our leadership by playing hard. We’ve got to be the leaders for this team. It’s not about points, but just showing everybody, ‘Hey, follow us and we’ll lead the way.’ ” No NBA team has ever come back from a 3-0 deficit to win a playoff series. “At some point, somebody is going to come from 3-0 down and win a series. The only thing I knew for sure was it would start by winning Game 4,” Magic coach Stan Van Gundy said. “I figured that one out. You have to win Game 4. ... This was a must-win.” Paul Pierce had 32 points and 11 rebounds, and Kevin Garnett had 14 points and 12 boards for Boston. Ray Allen hit consecutive three-pointers in overtime, but Pierce missed two tries in the final minute as the Celtics failed to complete the sweep. “They don’t want to leave. We’re going to have to throw them out,” said Celtics forward Glen “Big Baby” Davis. “It’s just

Orlando Magic forward Rashard Lewis (9) drives between Boston Celtics Kevin Garnett, left, and Glen Davis, right, in the fourth quarter of Game 4 in the NBA Eastern Conference basketball finals in Boston, Monday. Orlando won 96-92. like somebody renting a house.” Nelson finished with 23 points and nine assists for the defending Eastern Conference champions, who led by 10 in the second quarter and were up 85-78 with 2:24 left in regulation before Boston scored eight of the next nine points to force overtime at 86-all. Neither team scored for the first 2:18 of the period before Nelson hit a three-pointer and then added another 43 seconds
later. Allen made a three-pointer and, after Howard dunked and drew a foul — but missed a free throw — Allen hit another three to make it 94-92. Howard followed up Nelson’s miss with 53 seconds left to make it 96-92, then Garnett sailed a pass over Pierce’s head and into the crowd. Pierce missed a pair of three-point attempts in the closing seconds. “There were a couple of plays
down the stretch offensively that we botched, plain and simple. We’re kicking ourselves. We had a great opportunity,” Allen said. “There’s no need to panic. We like the position we’re in. But it’s a lesson: We have to take care of the small things and we’ll get to where we want to be.” Orlando’s revival came just in time to avoid a Celtics walkover that had fans in the new Boston Garden chanting “Beat L.A!” early in the second half of Saturday night’s 23-point Boston victory. The Lakers lead the Suns 2-1 in the Western Conference finals, with Game 4 tonight in Phoenix. But there was no more chanting about the Lakers on Monday night. “I know they (the Celtics players) heard it. They had no choice but to hear it,” Celtics coach Doc Rivers said. “I don’t know if they believed it. We didn’t play well, I know that. I hope that wasn’t the reason.” Only four times in the history of the North American major pro sports leagues has a team come back to win a playoff series after losing the first three games. The Magic’s biggest lead of the series had been a three-point edge in the first quarter of Game 2, but they opened with their highest-scoring quarter of the series on Monday to take a 31-26 lead. They made it 42-32 in the second before Boston cut the deficit to four points at the half. Orlando led 85-78 on Howard’s three-point play, but Pierce sliced past Howard for a dunk that cut it to five, then Allen hit a threepointer to make it 85-83 with 1:41 left. Nelson made one of two free throws, and then Pierce went to the basket and drew a foul, completing the three-point play to make it 86-all with 1:16 left. But Pierce missed a jumper with a chance to give Boston the lead, Nelson missed for Orlando and Pierce lost his handle on the ball in the final seconds of regulation to send the game into overtime.

Eastern Conference title goes to Flyers Philadelphia heading to first Stanley Cup finals since 1997
By Cliff Brunt The Associated Press
INDIANAPOLIS — Paul Tracy had one of the fastest cars during practice for the Indianapolis 500 only a few days ago. That’s what made his failure to qualify for the race so difficult to stomach. “The team did everything they could,” said Tracy, who finished second in 2002 and ninth last year. “I drove the wheels off it. And I don’t know what to say.” Tracy withdrew a qualifying time that would have put him into the race in an attempt to post an even faster time. His strategy backfired, and he knocked himself out. Jay Howard did the same on Sunday — opening the door for rookie Sebastian Saavedra to back his way into the field. The situation reduced Tracy, one of IndyCar’s tough guys, to tears. “I’m a little bit numb right now, disappointed,” he said. “We were on track, and we were trying to do it. And it’s harder to walk away, you know.” Milka Duno and Jaques Lazier also failed on the last day of qualifying for this Sunday’s race. Long faces were plentiful in the garages on Monday, knowing that there would be no reward for more than a week’s worth of preparation. Tracy had the second-fastest lap Thursday, but he scraped the wall and damaged the lower right rear wishbone on his No. 15 car in practice Friday. Mechanics had him back on the track on Saturday morning, and he had a fast lap of 223.435 miles per hour during practice. When it was time to qualify, he went out for his warmup lap but never took the green flag and pulled into the pits after getting stuck in neutral. He got back on the track later, but he didn’t qualify. He went back out on Sunday, the final day of qualifying, and posted a time good enough to make the field. Indy’s Bump Day format is set up so the lowest qualifier can be knocked out of the field of 33 if someone else qualifies faster before the 6 p.m. cutoff. Tracy withdrew his time to try to increase his speed and protect himself against other cars that appeared to be threatening his position. He never had control of the car on his final run, nearly hitting the outside wall several times before waving the attempt off, leaving him out of the top 33 and without time for another run. “I just about touched on every lap,” he said. “And it was sliding. I was on the verge of crashing every corner. So I was able to keep it off the wall and not destroy the car.” He didn’t assign blame for the
decision to take another shot. Another driver, Mario Romancini, did the same thing and moved up several positions. “We felt at the time that we were pretty safe where we were,” Tracy said. “It turns out, we still would have been in. But it’s a team decision. And we worked as a team all week, and we made decisions as a team.” Tony Kanaan, who qualified on the final day, said he knew withdrawing the time wasn’t Tracy’s choice. He thought his longtime friend had made the field. “I realized actually in my interview that he was out of it because I didn’t even see it,” Kanaan said. “Too bad. I think it was a bad call on their part. But that’s racing.” Eric Haverson, chief mechanic for KV Racing Technology, said Tracy’s team will take the car apart at its Indianapolis headquarters to have parts ready for the team’s other three cars that qualified. He much rather would have had Tracy join Mario Moraes, E.J. Viso and Takuma Sato in the race. “Without question, it’s a disappointment,” Haverson said Monday as the team was packing up. “We were all disappointed to not be able to get in the show. We got right up to the end of the line, and to not be able to get a shot. We just have to rebound, go to Toronto and Edmonton and have good races there.” Howard appeared to be in, but he knocked himself out, too. “I didn’t think this would happen,” Howard said afterward. Howard said he had a problem with his car on its secondto-last attempt, but he felt it was easily fixable. “I was confident with a small change we could easily go out and make the same time again. “It was a joint decision to go back out,” he said. “In those situations, what do you do? I wanted to put on a good show for the fans.” Duno would have been the fifth woman to qualify for this year’s race, but she completed just one of the mandatory four laps during her final run and never had the speed to make a real push for a spot. Lazier replaced A.J. Foyt IV on the final day of qualifying, but he couldn’t get enough speed in his only day with the car. “As competitive as this field is, we had an uphill battle,” Lazier said. “We kept getting real close. We just got right to the edge.” The biggest surprise by far was Tracy, a 41-year-old veteran who has earned $1.4 million at the track over the years. “I was hoping to get the job done, and that wasn’t the case,” he said. “You can’t really prepare yourself for that situation.”
MEMORIAL DAY 2010

PHILADELPHIA — The Stanley Cup finals are back in orange-and-black. Led by players who stormed back this postseason from injury and a colossal deficit, the Philadelphia Flyers have rekindled some of their old “Broad Street Bullies” championship days and can win their first Stanley Cup since 1975. Mike Richards scored an empty-netter in a most bruising fashion, Arron Asham and Jeff Carter scored goals 84 seconds apart in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference finals and the Flyers beat the Montreal Canadiens 4-2 on Monday night to advance to their first Cup finals since 1997. The Flyers, who needed a shootout win in the last game of the season to clinch a playoff spot, will play the Western Conference champion Chicago Blackhawks in Game 1 on Saturday. Michael Leighton allowed a goal 59 seconds into the game, then shut down the Canadiens, who showed a resilient comeback spirit in the first two rounds. The Flyers took a 3-1 lead into the third period, leaving the final 20 minutes as one raucous coronation party. Nearly 20,000 giddy fans dressed in pumpkin-orange giveaway Tshirts chanted “Let’s Go Flyers!” but couldn’t exhale until the end. “I was counting down the clock the last 2 minutes, I couldn’t wait for it to wind down,” Leighton said. “Last couple of minutes we did a great job.” Once Carter scored the empty-netter in the final seconds, the crowd exploded in a championship frenzy.

Philadelphia Flyers’ Braydon Coburn, top, collides with Montreal Canadiens’ Maxim Lapierre in the third period of Game 5 of the NHL hockey Eastern Conference finals, Monday in Philadelphia. Philadelphia won 4-2 and took the series 4-1. The finals seem a fitting result for a Flyers organization that still has some “Broad Street Bullies” in their bloodlines. Forget dropping the gloves: This year’s Flyers have shown an awesome ability to fight back on guts alone. Down 3-0 in the conference semifinals vs. Boston and trailing 3-0 in Game 7, the Flyers rallied to win in one of the sport’s all-time great comebacks. “We kept going and didn’t quit. Down 03 we didn’t quit all year that has been our motto. It feels good especially for the fans,” Richards said. “It’s been great so far. It’s been great along the way. The journey hasn’t ended. Hopefully we have a Cinderella story in the end, but we need to prepare for Chicago.” Carter, Simon Gagne and Ian Laperriere
all pushed through potential series-ending injuries to return earlier than expected and deliver a shot at the Stanley Cup to Philadelphia. “It’s a great feeling. We got a great team here, a great bunch of guys I’m proud of every one of them,” Leighton said. “I said right from the beginning of the year, we just got to get in the playoffs and anything can happen. That’s a tough team over there and we just played great.” For all the knocks Philly takes as a titlestarved sports town, all four major pro teams have made the championship round of their sport in the last 10 years. The Phillies in 2008 have won Philadelphia’s only championship since 1983.

M’s Bradley admits to ’unpleasant thoughts’ Seattle slugger works through his anxiety and anger problems By Geoff Baker The Seattle Times
SEATTLE — No matter how hard he tried, Milton Bradley could not calm himself down. Moments after a seventh-inning strikeout May 4, with one hand trembling uncontrollably, the struggling Mariner told his manager he desperately needed to do something positive — anything at all — to feel better about his worth to the team. Manager Don Wakamatsu, realizing Bradley was losing control, pulled him from the game. Bradley bolted from the ballpark, unable to watch the final innings on a clubhouse TV. While driving home, he was stopped by police for speeding. Bradley began arguing. He’d been going the same speed as the car next to him, he told the officer. Why was he the one pulled over? The officer eventually let Bradley off with a warning. All of that night’s events, the culmination of weeks of stress, made the first-year Mariner realize he needed help. Help to get the negative feelings and thoughts — thoughts that he admits even included suicide — out of his head. “I got home and my heart was pounding,” Bradley said. “It was just one thing after another that night. I couldn’t get it to stop. I felt like I’d been down this road before, where everything keeps happening and leads to something else and you can’t control it. I just wanted it to stop.” For the first time, Bradley knew that wishing his problems away wasn’t going to solve anything. He needed to get away from baseball and find a professional to confide in about the anxiety that tightened his chest and crept into his voice with alarming frequency. “When you start feeling that the only way you can end it is to kill yourself, that’s not a healthy feeling,” Bradley said. “So, I needed to get away, to step back for a bit. There are too many people I care about in this world to let things go down that road.” Bradley had been having such thoughts—he calls them “unpleasant thoughts”—for two years. Some of it was the price of a bad-boy image, one he’d helped cultivate through anger-management issues and motivating himself by feeding off the dislike of opposing fans. “Before, it used to fuel me,” he said of the negativity. “But I just got tired of it. Every day, I’d wake up and there’d be something in the paper. Or people talking about me on the radio. I don’t have anything more to prove. I know I can play. But now it felt like it was just a matter of people saying ‘How far can we just push this guy? Make him do something crazy to go over the edge?’ “That’s not going to happen. I won’t let them push me over the edge. But after a while, you feel it.” Back in 2008, when Bradley was with the Texas Rangers, his sixth majorleague team, fans’ insults and negative

Seattle’s Milton Bradley pauses for several moments after striking out to end the sixth inning against the San Diego Padres during Sunday’s game in Seattle. media coverage began to find the mark. Bradley remembers a 20-minute walk from Safeco Field back to the team hotel on a damp, chilly night after the season opener in Seattle. “And I just had all kinds of bad thoughts running through my head,” he said. “I was coming off ACL surgery and there were people who wrote me off. I just didn’t feel good about myself.” The negative feelings got worse last season in Chicago, where Bradley struggled early, feuded with manager Lou Piniella and eventually was kicked off the team. This spring, he got a fresh start in Seattle, his eighth team in 11 seasons. But almost immediately, Bradley created controversy with comments in interviews about last season’s troubles in Chicago. He got tossed out of two spring training games. He called himself “the Kanye West of baseball” in an interview with The Associated Press. In the same interview, he gave an almost word-for-word recitation of Al Pacino’s “Say goodnight to the bad guy” speech from the 1983 movie “Scarface,” suggesting people needed “bad” guys like him to play the role of villain so they can feel good about themselves. Such statements seemed at-odds with Bradley’s desire to ease the negativity he believes surrounds him. But he insists it’s just the kind of person he is: a straight shooter who’ll give an honest answer as opposed to a cliche soundbite, even if, just like rapper West, it gets him in trouble. The Pacino line from Scarface, he added, was intentional, meant to be a joke and not taken seriously. “I’ve been waiting for years to use that
line someplace,” he said with a chuckle. But the fallout has been no laughing matter. “I was talking to my wife and I was telling her, ‘I’m not going to do anything drastic, but I can understand why people want to commit suicide,’ ” he said. “Because you just feel like you just have insurmountable opposition and odds. And there are things going against you, and it feels like all you can do is keep battling this, all the time. All the time, you have to be a perfect person. As soon as you slip up, or show any weakness, it’s going to be talked about and exploited. My name was everywhere.” Bradley doesn’t want people to feel sorry for him. Just to understand that he’s also a human being, a person with likes and dislikes and a need to feel good about himself. He knows he has had anger issues in the past that he was responsible for, even seeking counseling for it on his own. But this time he asked the Mariners to help him because he could not understand or control the inner forces that were ruining his life. Those feelings had been mounting since spring training. Bradley felt he couldn’t go anywhere without hearing about his past transgressions. “There’s a point where you make people accountable,” Bradley said. “But now, it’s there every time I look in the mirror. Initially, I just blew it off, gave a good, smart reaction to it. But I didn’t ever forget it. I thought about it. I did. It’s remained on me since that point. Really, more heavy than it had been before.” It didn’t help that he got off to a terrible

offensive start with his new Mariners team. His counseling sessions have made Bradley realize that he doesn’t have to determine his self-worth strictly by what he does on a baseball field. Bradley admits he’d been doing that for too long. “I never had an identity,” he said. “Sports have always been my identity.” Nor has Bradley ever been particularly close with his family. He considers his baseball teammates to be more like his real family, since he sees them every day, shares their ups and downs. It’s why Bradley was inwardly torn apart by his terrible start in April, beating himself up for every bad swing or missed fly ball. There were days when he’d wake up with his heart beating faster, or his blood-pressure rising. Once the Mariners put him on the restricted list, Bradley spent the first few days speaking with a counselor, who also had come from a sports background, getting a handle on what was happening to him. “I understood what I was feeling,” Bradley said. “But I didn’t know why I was feeling it.” Afterward, he began working out daily at Safeco Field when the team wasn’t around, hitting in an indoor batting cage with Mariners mental-performance coach Steve Hecht, who stayed behind with Bradley while the team embarked on the road. And though Bradley returned Wednesday, 15 days after asking the Mariners for help, his counseling sessions will continue. Bradley is aware that this is only the start of a process to help him feel better about himself. Through his discussions, he realizes many of his feelings can be traced to a childhood marked by troubles fitting in. One of his only real close friends in high school had a falling out with Bradley and the two stopped speaking. He made another good friend soon after and the two are still buddies, but the list of people who truly understand Bradley has always been small. Now 32, Bradley wonders about his life outside of baseball and where he will ultimately fit in. He appreciates the millions he has made as a player, but says that being rich was never his goal and wealth won’t cure what ails him. Bradley starts to tear up when discussing his visit to Lakeridge Elementary School, part of a team speaking engagement that took place the day he asked the Mariners for help. “I’m the type of person who enjoys doing things that make other people feel good, whether it’s helping a team win games or speaking to the students that day,” he said. “They’re all looking back at you with big eyes, waiting to hear what you have to say. That’s where you have an opportunity to make a difference. You have a chance to do something good. And that’s what I wanted to do.” And what Bradley hopes to keep doing in the months ahead as he seeks the keys to a happier existence. He’ll look to rediscover the “good guy” he says he knows is inside and hope the rest of the world eventually catches on.

ARLINGTON, Texas — The Texas Rangers filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection Monday in hopes of spurring completion of the $575 million sale of the team by midsummer to a group of investors that includes Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan. Under the plan, the Rangers would fully pay the $75 million of the club’s debt tied up in Tom Hicks’ financially strapped ownership group. That would remove the team from the additional claims by creditors against Hicks Sports Group that have stalled the sale to the group led by Ryan and Pittsburgh attorney Chuck Greenberg. “I did not want to put the baseball future of the Texas Rangers in jeopardy or uncertainty for an extended period of time,” Hicks said. “This action is all about creating an end to the impasse in allowing this team sale to go forward.” A 21-page filing in U.S. Bankruptcy Court in Fort Worth included the top 30 unsecured creditors, a list headed by Alex Rodriguez, who is owed $24.9 million in deferred compensation six years after he was traded away from the team. The next five on the list are also current or former players: Kevin Millwood ($12.9 million), Michael Young ($3.9 million), Vicente Padilla ($1.7 million), Mickey Tettleton ($1.4 million) and Mark McLemore ($970,000). A court hearing is scheduled today, though the process could take several more weeks to complete. “I know it will be faster than the other alternative would have been,” Hicks said. Greenberg initially hoped to have control of the Rangers by opening day, but concerns from Hicks’ lenders have slowed the deal and the Hicks Sports Group defaulted on $525 million in loans last year. Greenberg said Hicks’ agreement to sell 153 acres around the stadium facilitated the agreement; the land is part of the $575 million sale price. Hicks, who bought the team in 1998 from a group that included former president George W. Bush, said it became apparent about a month ago that the Chapter 11 bankruptcy would be the only way to break the stalemate created by creditors.

THE BULLETIN • Tuesday, May 25, 2010 D5
Sisters Continued from D1 The Palanuks wanted to showcase the revitalized Peterson Ridge Trail system, and at the same time they believed that Sisters could provide a unique setting for a mountain bike race. And it certainly does that. “The revised trail system has a lot to offer and we wanted to let people know about what we have here,” said Palanuk. “The more (cycling) traffic we get out here, the better.” Most mountain bike races in Oregon, understandably, are staged in relatively remote locations — away from urban amenities. At the Sisters Stampede, the race start and finish line is adjacent to a brewery, a movie theater and a day spa. While mountain bike races aren’t typically exciting fare for spectators, the race in Sisters makes it easy for a spouse, a friend, or a youngster to catch a flick, enjoy a burger, or indulge in a massage without missing the action at the start or finish of the competition. Following the main crosscountry event, a free race for kids will be staged. The FivePine Lodge campus will then be transformed into a postrace party. Food, refreshments and live music from the Moon Mountain Ramblers (all under the comfort of a tent in case of inclement weather) will help create the setting for rehashing highlights of the day’s race. What’s more, photographers from Oregon Velo will be reeling off a slide show of race photos from the event. But enough about the atmo-

MULTISPORT FRESHAIRSPORTS TIME TRIAL AND DUATHLON SERIES: Thursday, June 3 and June 10, 6 p.m. at Miller
sphere. Let’s get to the racing. The course is a single lollipop loop, which begins with a fivemile sorting out on doubletrack dirt roads followed by more than 15 miles of singletrack. (Beginners will race on a shortened version of the route.) The course is relatively flat, which is not to say it is easy. The trail doesn’t point up a whole lot, which means it doesn’t point down a whole lot either. The pros in the field may even be able to big-chain-ring the entire race, save for during an exceptionally steep and rocky bit over Eagle Rock. Even more so than Bend’s Cascade Chainbreaker, the Sisters Stampede is a pedaling course suited to powerful riders. When I joined Joel Palanuk last week to pre-ride the course, we came upon only one short downhill section where I could take a break from pushing a gear. The most memorable section of the route, for me, was a zigzag portion of trail through a canal reminiscent of the one riders see at Chainbreaker. Only these grin-producing berm turns are wider and allow riders to carry more speed. But riders need to be aware of the sharp right-turn switchback at the bottom, which comes up fast. I was so thrilled with my sweeping turns that I carried too much speed into the corner and nearly rocketed over the handlebars. Riders must be mentally on their toes for this course, which winds through open, expansive pine forests. I found nothing particularly death-defying about it, but lava rocks pop up here and there, and the trail is rather curvy. A moment’s lapse and a rider might — like I did — find his or her front
tire entangled with a trail-side manzanita. While amazing views of the Three Sisters and the Cascade Range can be found along the Peterson Ridge Trail, I doubt that anyone racing will actually get to take them in. The race course will be marked for preriding this Saturday, but riders can get a good sense of the course by hitting the Peterson Ridge Trail system anytime. Maps can be found at www.sisterstrails.com. Before and after work at his day job, Palanuk has for weeks driven his car over the five miles of doubletrack dirt roads that will serve as the race’s beginning and finishing sections. His daily diligence has paid off, and these previously sand roads are compact and should make for fast-rolling knobbies come race day. And recent rains and cool temperatures have the Peterson Ridge Trail in prime condition: low dust, firm dirt, and lots of fast. (A single-geared bike would be a good choice on Sunday.) Palanuk has received complaints from some riders about the race entry fee. At $35, the cost to register for the Sisters Stampede is a couple bucks higher than for most other races. Palanuk reasons that the added value of food and live entertainment after the race justifies the higher cost. Plus, he notes, the preregistration fee is good through Saturday. In addition to cash and prizes, overall winners at Sunday’s Sisters Stampede receive an award befitting the event: a custom belt buckle.

Scholarships Continued from D1 “This happens a lot more than anybody even believes,” said New Haven management professor Allen Sack, a former Notre Dame football player and vocal NCAA critic. “You’re allowed to do it. According to the NCAA, there’s nothing wrong with it. “Coaches don’t go out of their way to clarify (scholarship length). They make it as vague as they possibly can.” At Missouri, the school announced on April 12 that Stone and sophomore guard Miguel Paul were transferring to seek more playing time. Two days later, the Tigers signed a pair of the country’s top-rated junior college transfers, rugged 6-foot-8 forward Ricardo Ratliffe and guard Matt Pressey, whose younger brother Phil will also join Missouri as a freshman in the fall. Missouri coach Mike Anderson called the timing of the two announcements coincidental. Both Stone and Paul had previously expressed interest in seeking a fresh start, he said, calling their decisions to leave “mutual.” “I don’t have a lot of guys go in and out of my program,” he said. “My kids are like my family, and I want my family to be happy. If you’re not happy, then maybe this is not the right place.” Paul told The Associated Press that “the coaches wanted me to stay but I told them this wasn’t the place for me.” He is transferring to East Carolina. Stone, meanwhile, will play for mid-major Southeast Missouri of the Ohio Valley Conference after sitting out the required year for Division I transfers. He declined an interview request, but his mother spoke with the AP at length in several interviews and made it clear that her son was pushed out. She described a celebratory spring break barbecue touting her son’s first year in college. Her son went back to campus afterward and, hours later, called with unexpected news. “He came back (to Columbia) Monday and said, ‘I have to transfer,’ ” she recalled. “I thought he was going to graduate from that school.” Exactly how often athletic scholarships are revoked to make room for better players is hard to quantify, though a pair of

recent studies on turnover in college basketball offer a few clues. The National College Players Association, an advocacy group that lobbies for athletes’ rights, found an average roster turnover rate of 22 percent among the 65 schools in the 2009 NCAA tournament. That works out to 169 players out of 775 possible returners. The group includes players who lost scholarships for academic reasons or who sought transfers, but excludes graduating seniors and those who left for the NBA. The University of North Carolina’s College Sport Research Institute found that 11 of 95 Division I schools studied had at least 20 percent roster turnover for the 2009-10 season. The UNC study also excluded injured players as well as those who turned pro or graduated. Both studies include Kentucky, where seven players on Billy Gillispie’s final squad didn’t return once John Calipari took over in 2009 and brought his own recruits. Four of those former Wildcats have said publicly they were asked to leave the program. Kentucky athletic director Mitch Barnhart said that Calipari was honest with the team he inherited. Players were told up front whether or not they fit into Kentucky’s plans. Either “we have a spot for you or we can help you go someplace else,” Barnhart said. Advocates for athletes say players who leave against their will often stay quiet, so they can save face by requesting a transfer and getting a recommendation from their now-former coach that will help them jump more easily to a new school. The one-year renewable scholarship, with a limit of five years of athletic aid, has been in place since 1973. Kevin Lennon, the NCAA’s vice president for academic and membership affairs, said the 37-year-old policy has not been a frequent topic of concern among member schools. He noted that NCAA rules require colleges to provide athletes who lose scholarships with an appeals option, typically consisting of a campus panel formed from outside the athletics department. But such arbitration is not common, he acknowledged. Requiring Division I transfers to sit out a year before competing for a new school prevents coaches from recruiting players
away from other schools, said Maryland basketball coach Gary Williams. Coaches who routinely “run off” players risk sullying their reputation — and losing recruits to other coaches who would point out that track record, he added. “I don’t know many coaches who do that,” Williams said. “If you develop a reputation for doing that, you probably won’t be coaching very long.” In football, former Colorado State kicker Durrell Chamarro expected to stay at the school that recruited him for his entire college career. After a redshirt freshman year and another season as a backup, he hoped to emerge as a starter by his senior year. Instead, former Rams coach Sonny Lubick told Chamorro in the spring of 2007 that his scholarship had been revoked. Chamorro was invited to remain with the team as a walk-on, but the only child of a retired southern California school teacher and a waitress couldn’t afford out-ofstate tuition of more than $17,000 a year. “I was told that as long as I maintained at least a 2.0 GPA and didn’t break any rules, I would have my scholarship for four or five years,” said Chamorro, who was also offered scholarships by Arizona State, Oregon State and Washington out of high school. Lubick retired in 2007 and now works in community outreach at Colorado State’s business school. He recalled that Chamorro was put on notice after his first year on scholarship that “you’ve got to be better. We’ll give you one more year.” The retired coach added that NCAA rules allow schools to sign up to 25 scholarship athletes each year but with a roster limit of 85 players — a system that assumes some students won’t have their aid offers extended. Chamorro, who had a 3.4 grade-point average at Colorado State eventually transferred to Cal Poly Pomona — but not before borrowing roughly $10,000 in student loans, changing his major because his new school wouldn’t accept all of his transfer credits and taking a detour through junior college. “They say whatever they think they need to get you to come to their school,” he said. “But when you get there, they can do whatever they want.”

Chad Zirkle, 33, of Bend, Beach Volleyball spikes the ball while teammate Fred Anderson, also 33 and a club member, watches at the new beach volleyball court in Bend’s Old Mill District.
Volleyball Continued from D1 “There is not a better court surface out there besides 12 inches of ‘powder’ for a sport,â€? says Staley of the soft sand that makes up the courts at the Old Mill. “So that’s why we are bringing it. It’s expensive, but it’s worth it.â€? The sand — which only cost $80 a load — has been shipped in from an Oregon Coast beach near Florence. The expensive part is the trucking fees, which costs about $500 a load. “Once I made the transition from indoor to playing sand (volleyball),â€? adds Staley, “I pretty much stopped playing indoor.â€? Other than the playing surface, the primary difference between indoor volleyball and beach volleyball is the number of players on the court: six-player teams for indoor volleyball, doubles for competitive beach volleyball. Bend Beach Volleyball members tout the workout that comes with sand volleyball. Without realizing it, they say, they burn hundreds of calories per hour. “This is an amazing workout,â€? notes Davis. “I think it’s something like 500 calories an hour. ‌ And you don’t really feel like you are moving, but it’s kind of like running around in mud. It’s wearing. It’s by far the best workout I’ve ever found. And you get a tan and you get to wear your swimsuit. What’s not to like, right?â€? Until a few weeks ago, beach volleyball players in Central Oregon had just one place to play. They gathered in northeast Bend at the Mountain View High School courts that were built about 15 years ago by Jim Peters,
former Mountain View High School volleyball head coach, and by local beach volleyball enthusiast Frank Ring. Now, a new sand court has been built in the Old Mill District just south of the Les Schwab Amphitheater. Bend Beach Volleyball members have laid the foundation for three other courts at the Old Mill site and hope to fill a second court with sand next week for summer play. A third and fourth court will be filled if a volunteer truck driver or funds for a truck driver can be rustled up to transport sand from an Oregon Coast beach near Florence. The beach volleyball enthusiasts say they are grateful for the courts at Mountain View, but they wanted to make the sand courts visible and available to all, which was not the case at the high school. “We want it to be accessible for everyone,� says Levi McClain, 28 and a Bend Beach Volleyball and BVA member. “But we need them (members of the public) to all take ownership in the community,� adds Staley, “and make sure to help out and keep (the new facility) clean.� The Old Mill has offered temporary use of the land near the amphitheater. Noelle Fredland, marketing director for the Old Mill District, offers “no set answer� to the question of how “temporary� the new courts will be. “Certainly at some point we hope to develop that land,� Fredland says. “However, only for the right tenant or use.� “Long term we would like a permanent location, whether it is Old Mill or somewhere visible,� says McClain.
SAGEBRUSH BASKETBALL CAMP: For boys in grades 3-8; fundamentals of shooting, passing, dribbling, rebounding, pivoting, defense and more; June 21-24, 8:30-11:30 a.m. at Bend High School; $60 before June, $65 thereafter; discount for multiple family members; Don Hayes at 541-383-6300. NNU WOMEN’S BASKETBALL CLINIC: For girls grades 8-12; Wednesday and Thursday, July 14-15, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. both days at La Pine High School; individual development with Northwest Nazarene University coaches; 10 hours of on-court instruction; bring a lunch; $65; checks to NNU Women’s Basketball; 208-467-8451.
The Old Mill and Bend Beach Volleyball have worked out a partnership. The club has created the volleyball facility and will continue to create and maintain the courts, while the Old Mill will take care of renting the volleyballs to the public for what McClain says will be nominal fees. Soon, the public will be able to rent volleyballs at the Ticket Mill (541-318-5457), located in the Old Mill District. Public hours are expected to be from noon to 5 p.m., but courts are only available on a first come first serve basis. “(The new courts and club) will allow us to do a lot more tournaments,� says Long, “and allow us to invite the public to come out and play in the tournaments.� Bend Beach Volleyball has several events planned for the summer. First is a Poker Tournament fundraiser set for June 5, starting at 6 p.m. at Rivals Sports Bar in Bend. The group has tentatively scheduled for June 19 a local club tournament that the public is invited to watch. In mid-July, Bend Beach Volleyball will host a three-day sand volleyball clinic for high school volleyball players. Once all the courts are available for play, Bend Beach Volleyball hopes to form separate leagues for different ability levels. “It is a little bit intimidating for people to play because they think it is so difficult to move around in the sand,� says Staley. “But once you play a little bit, you find your timing. “You get your sand legs.�

Keenan Molner jolts out of bed and scribbles notes to himself on a white-
board hanging in his room. The 16-year-old Bend High School junior can’t seem to get one particular endeavor off his mind, even at 2 in the morning. Molner isn’t consumed with getting into college or an academic project for school. What’s keeping him up at night is a play he is helping direct with his friend and fellow Bend High student Jessica Adler, 18. “It’s always on the brain,” said Molner.

In finale, ‘Lost’ answers ‘Where ARE we?’ By Frazier Moore The Associated Press
Dear Abby: Regarding your column of April 12, 2010, and the letter about the man who refuses to file tax returns, your answer was only partially correct. In addition to enrolled agents, tax returns are prepared by other licensed professionals. Certified public accountants are regulated by the various states and do a great deal of tax preparation. Some tax attorneys may prepare income tax returns. The failure to file a tax return could be a crime, in which case the individual would need a tax attorney to represent him in trying to avoid a jail sentence. Communications to tax attorneys may be covered by the attorney-client privilege. In addition, there are practitioners who are qualified both as attorneys and as CPAs. While many enrolled agents may also be CPAs, or even attorneys, you should not have restricted your recommendation to enrolled agents only. — Sydney S. Traum, JD-CPA, Miami Beach, Fla. Dear Sydney: My thanks to you and the countless other CPAs and attorneys who wrote to correct me. I apologize for the omission. After wading through the tidal wave of mail, I contacted the National Association of Enrolled Agents (NAEA) for clarification and was told: “There are many outstanding tax practitioners who are attorneys or CPAs, some of whom are members of NAEA. We do not wish to imply in any way that they are less qualified or capable in the field of taxation. We just want to call attention to the profession of enrolled agents and let the public know that they are the only tax practitioners SPECIFICALLY licensed by the Department of the Treasury.” Readers, I hope this straight-
DEAR ABBY ens out any confusion. Read on: Dear Abby: I was intrigued by the letter from the woman whose boyfriend has refused to file tax returns for eight years. In addition to the civil ramifications of refusing to file the tax return as articulated in your response, it is a federal crime not to file one. An individual who has the requisite income is punishable for up to three years in prison for failure to file a tax return for each year in which he or she is responsible for filing one. Additionally, it can be construed by the government as tax evasion, for which the maximum penalty includes five years imprisonment for each year in which the tax is evaded. — Dennis C. Kainen, Miami Beach, Fla. Dear Abby: My 12-year marriage to someone just like the man in that letter became a financial disaster. Even though I did file separately, I co-signed home, car and credit card loans with him. It has taken me more than 10 years to regain my good credit and restore my dignity. If she does marry him, he will display immaturity in other areas — as a husband, a father, an employee — and she will look back (as I did) and realize what a horrible mistake she made. She should not ignore this important signpost! Please warn her to wake up before it’s too late. — Been There, Done That, Rochester, N.Y.
NEW YORK — The premiere of “Lost” ended memorably with Charlie’s plaintive question to his fellow island castaways: “Guys, where ARE we?” Six seasons and some 120 episodes later, many viewers might be wondering the same thing as the much-awaited “Lost” finale brought the series to a rapturous close Sunday night. Viewers, where are we? The answer: Almost anywhere we want to be. (Spoiler alert for what follows.) If ever a TV series could be likened to a journey, “Lost” is it, and as it came to the end of the road it left its audience with comfort and inspiration more than hard answers. There was also, not surprisingly, a sense of being lost in the maw of a show that henceforth will give up nothing more, a show whose sweep and ambiguity will fuel debate and theorizing from its viewers for years to come. That, dear viewers, is where you are. Led by a two-hour retrospective, ABC’s Super Bowl Sunday-scale drama event was capped by the two-andone-half-hour-long finale. As they have all season, story lines overlapped between the characters on the island and in their parallel lives in the “normal” world back home in California. On the island, Jack (Matthew Fox) has volunteered from among the designated candidates to take over from Jacob (Mark Pellegrino) as

the island’s protector. The Smoke Monster, occupying the body of Locke (Terry O’Quinn), wants to stop the candidates, kill them, destroy the island and sail away. Back in Los Angeles, Jack, by profession a surgeon, is about to operate on Locke, who (in this incarnation) is crippled. “If I can fix you, Mr. Locke, that’s all the peace I’ll need,” Jack says. But then back on the island, Jack and the Monster-WhoLooks-Like-Locke have a tense confrontation. “So it’s you,” says MonsterLocke, meaning the island’s new protector. “I assume you’re here to stop me.” “Can’t stop you,” Jack says, but promises instead, “I’m gonna kill you.” Well, he doesn’t. But a bit later, Kate (Evangeline Lilly) somehow kills the monster-who-is-mortalagain with a single gunshot after a fierce cliffside fight between him and Jack.
In alter-reality Back in L.A., Locke’s surgery is a success. From his bed, he gratefully tells Jack he has feeling back in his legs. “Jack, I hope that somebody does for you what you just did for me,” Locke says to a disturbedlooking Jack, who seems to be having flashes of memory of his alternate existence. It’s the sort of memory bursts all the characters are having: island recollections

Jack has a tender conversation with the man he had clashed with so often before. “I don’t understand,” says Jack. “You died.” “Yes, I did.” “Then how are you here right now?” “How are YOU here?” his father (John Terry) replies. “I died, too,” says Jack, beginning to weep. “That’s OK, son.” And yet it’s all real, his father assures him. “Everything that’s ever hap-

pened to you is real. All those people in the church, they’re all real, too.” “They’re all dead?” Jack asks. “Everyone dies sometime, kiddo,” his father replies gently. Through the run of the series, there was much talk among its characters of being on the island for a purpose. As it draws to a close, “Lost” has sustained the eerie feeling (eerie for TV, anyway) that it was on the air for a purpose — a special purpose beyond selling products and filling time, or even entertainment. Its cast, producers, writers and the rest seemed drawn to create “Lost,” and keep creating it year after year, thanks to fate as much as showbiz urgencies. Deeper and wider than any TV series should dare to be, it has been thrilling, captivating, confounding (and, at times, pretty tedious), while it challenged its viewers to think, talk and feel. The series ended where it began six seasons ago after the plane crash: with a close-up of Jack’s eye opening as he lay on the ground. But this time, his eye was open and it shut. That’s where “Lost” leaves us viewers as it shuts down. Maybe not so clear about all we’ve seen, but challenged. Still a little lost, but reassured.

invading their consciousness. A few minutes later, Jack runs into Kate, his island love, as they, too, play the haven’t-I-seen-yousomewhere-before game. “What is happening to me?” says Jack, bewildered as she looks at him adoringly. “Who are you?” “I know you don’t understand, Jack,” she says. “But if you come with me, you will.” Come with her where? To a church where the former castaways are gathered for what seems a beatific funeral reception for themselves. At this reunion, everyone is smiling and embracing. The room floods with light. And Jack reconciles with his dead father, whose body he had been bringing back from Sydney when Oceanic Flight 815 crashed on the lost island at the start of the series.

Husband of late actress Murphy dies LOS ANGELES — The husband of Brittany Murphy was found dead by his mother-in-law late Sunday at the Los Angeles home he shared with the late actress, the coroner’s office said. Simon Monjack’s death was reported as a possible heart attack and appeared to be from natural causes, Los Angeles County Assistant Chief Coroner Ed Winter said. Monjack was 39. “He was discovered by Brittany’s mom as being unresponsive” in the master bedroom of the Hollywood Hills home at about 9:40 p.m. Sunday, Winter said. Sharon Murphy called paramedics, who pronounced him dead. There were no signs of foul play or physical injury to his body, Winter said. Prescription medications belonging to Monjack were found in his bedroom, but there was no immediate indication that he overdosed, Winter said. An autopsy was planned Tuesday, but a final cause of death would await results of planned toxicology tests, Winter said. Murphy died last Dec. 20 after collapsing in the home.
At his wife’s funeral, a visibly emotional Monjack talked about their relationship and called her his best friend and soul mate. The two married in 2007. He had said they were planning a family and contemplating a move to New York. Monjack is credited as producer and co-writer of the 2001 film “Two Days, Nine Lives” and executive producer of the 2006’s “Factory Girl.” Murphy, best known for her major roles in “Clueless,” “Girl Interrupted” and “8 Mile,” died at age 32. The Los Angeles County coroner’s office concluded her death was accidental but likely preventable. The coroner’s report said medications found in her system were consistent with treatment of a cold or respiratory infection. Monjack and Murphy’s mother had reported the actress was ill with flulike symptoms in the days before her death. Investigators found numerous prescription medications in her home, but an autopsy found no evidence that Murphy abused drugs.
Carey to share ideas Byrne sues Crist for with Cleveland council using ‘Road to Nowhere’ CLEVELAND — Comedian Drew Carey plans to visit his hometown of Cleveland to discuss with City Council members his ideas to help revitalize the city. “The Price is Right” host is expected to meet with council members Thursday after accepting Drew Carey an invitation from Council President Martin Sweeney. Last month, Carey argued for less government, more competition, less taxes and changes to schools in 10-minute segments about Cleveland on the website http://reason.tv. The site is affiliated with the Reason Foundation, a libertarian-leaning organization for which Carey is a board member. In inviting Carey, Sweeney wrote “Clevelanders sometimes bristle at criticism from outsiders, but you are one of us ... as one of our Favorite Sons, your thoughts and ideas are most welcome.”
Former Talking Heads frontman David Byrne is suing Florida Gov. Charlie Crist for using the band’s song “Road to Nowhere” in a campaign ad without permission. The complaint against Crist, a longtime Republican who’s now running as an independent for U.S. Senate, and his campaign was filed Monday in federal court in Tampa, Fla., said Byrne’s lawyer, Lawrence Iser. Byrne said in statement that he has never licensed a song to be used in an advertisement. “I’m a bit of a throwback that way, as I still believe songs occasionally mean something to people,” Byrne said in the statement. “A personal and social meaning is diluted when that same song is used to sell a product or a politician.” Crist used the song from the 1985 Talking Heads album “Little Creatures” in an online ad when he was still running as a Republican to attack his opponent in the primary, Marco Rubio, according to the complaint. Crist’s campaign used the song without obtaining the required licenses, according to complaint. — From wire reports

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, May 25, 2010: This year, open up to new possibilities. Others often challenge your thinking, like it or not. Focus on one effort at a time, refusing to scatter your attention in the customary Gemini style. You will notice that many people come toward you, but usually for a purpose other than socializing. Get to know people better, on a more grounded level. If you are single, you could meet someone out of the blue. This person could be quite different and very exciting. If you are attached, by taking up a mutual hobby or interest together, you will bond even more closely. SCORPIO knows how to push you. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Deal directly with others on a one-on-one level. You’ll discover the effects of the intensity of a professional relationship on a partner. You cannot interfere with this tie. You express your caring and feelings in a most dynamic way. Tonight: Go along with another’s plans. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Others seem poised and in control. You might want to shake up the status quo, but to what avail? Instead, approach a situation with gentleness, remembering the power of sugar over vinegar. Respect differences. Tonight: Say “yes.” GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH You are mellow, while others
seem to have fried nerves. You are able to mellow out and get to the bottom of a problem. Excitement surrounds what is happening. You don’t need to agree with everyone. Respect your differences. Tonight: Know when to call it a night. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH You could be unusually creative and dynamic. Others often want to tap into your thoughts and brainstorm. Though some of your ideas might be incorporated, others won’t be 100 percent. Tonight: Let go of work, and say hello to living. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Stay focused on your priorities. You might need a timeout from work and the daily grind. Perhaps taking some time off from work could add to your creativity and dynamic energy. Know that anything is possible. Tonight: Go for the moment. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHHH Communication is starred. You will say what you think and in a manner that could touch someone you really care about. Be careful and confirm meetings and messages. By all means, don’t stand on ceremony with another. There probably is a miscommunication. Tonight: Hang out with your buddies. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Your ability to make money could be greatly enhanced if you are willing to revisit a workrelated project of prominence. You might have been more gruff than you were aware. Discussions can incorporate different opinions. Tonight: Your treat.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Your popularity peaks simply by sharing more of what is on your mind. Your ability to juggle different people and various concerns comes to the forefront. Check in with a partner, and let him or her know that you are OK with a disagreement. Tonight: All smiles. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HH You might have a lot on your mind but choose to say little. You could be weighing the pros and cons of a situation. Quite possibly, you might be thinking that your feelings could swing. Holding back is the smart thing to do. Tonight: Get some extra R and R. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Of all signs, you know when to jump on opportunities and when to lie back. You could become inordinately frisky and assertive to some, but timing is with you. Confusion surrounds a situation. Tonight: Where the gang is. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Others frequently demand a lot from you. Don’t hesitate to return the favor. You are in the driver’s seat and can have far more impact than you realize. Work through a squabble with a family member. Tonight: It could be very, very late. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH You keep reaching out for new things and different styles. You easily could feel hemmed in by a set of circumstances. Rather than feeling locked, look at ways you can have what you want and meet another’s requirement. Tonight: Break past a self-imposed barrier. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

“There’s an abnormal amount of young talent in this town. I’ve never seen actors work so hard outside of the room.” — Jessica Adler, co-director of Bend High School’s “The Laramie Project”
Play Continued from E1
The play Last summer, Adler enrolled in a five-week theater program at Northwestern University. While there, she encountered a diverse group of students who inspired her to go further with theater. She also read “The Laramie Project” for the first time. Adler knew she wanted to do something with the show, and she was struck by the message of the play — about intolerance, hate crimes and compassion. When she came back to Bend, Adler brought the play to good friend Molner. He liked the idea of putting it on, particularly as something different from the comedies and musicals they had been part of in the past. Both students have extensive history in local theater productions. They believe the play will have some relevance for Bend. When Adler read the play, she thought “Wow, this sounds like Bend.” The play is designed to be universal in some ways. “Laramie can be any other town,” Adler said. The play was created by the Tectonic Theater Project, whose members traveled to Laramie after Shepard was killed. Shepard was a young gay man who was brutally beaten and left to die. (His death later inspired hatecrime legislation). The theater members interviewed a variety of people in the town and then created a play based on those interviews as well as their own diary entries. There are more than 50 characters in the play; by design, actors to switch from character to character. While the subject of the production is heavy, Adler says there is also some humor, and the play is not preachy. Adler hopes the show will inspire discussion and wants to “open up some eyes to the fact that it is a relevant topic to this town.”
Redmond Continued from E1 People can sip the Centennial IPA from Cascade Lakes Brewing Co., the Centennial Roast from DiLusso Coffee, as well as a centennial wine from Maragas Winery. Eberhard’s Dairy created a Centennial Crunch ice cream, and Goody’s Chocolates will offer a special candy bar. Thompson says another highlight will be the Redmond Fifth Grade History Play put on by fifth graders at Tom McCall Elementary School on Saturday.
The process Making the production entirely student-run was important to Adler and Molner. “Doing it all by students, it became so much more,” said Adler. They settled on the name Rêver for their theater company because it means dream in French. In December, Adler and Molner held auditions and cast the show. About 20 students tried out for eight slots. The students came from throughout Bend, and Adler was really pleased with the caliber of performers. Actors include Summit High School students Lila Mensing, Naomi Wright, Maddie Dunkelberg, Giancarlo Caccamo and Alec Armijo, Mountain View High School student Kayla Walsh, and Bend High School students Henry Steelhammer and Forrest Ingalls. Bend High School freshman Jacqui Adler has served as the directors’ assistant. “There’s an abnormal amount of young talent in this town,” said Adler. They are rehearsing five or six days a week for three hours at a time. Adler says the cast has really gotten into the show. One actor even called up one of the real-life people he is going to portray to talk to him on the phone. “I’ve never seen actors work so hard outside of the room,” said Adler. Adler has assumed the role of artistic direction while Molner takes on most of the technical details. “I probably wouldn’t have done this without him,” said Adler. “Together, we kind of make a well-rounded team.” Molner also took on the financial aspects, putting up $1,000 he earned through a summer job. “OK, we have a dream, but nothing happens without money,” said Molner. He put the seed money into a business account and it’s been supplemented by a few business sponsors and early ticket buyers. The cost of putting on a production is pretty high. Renting the theater costs
The show will highlight 100 years of history. Also on Saturday, during “Talking Tombstones,” actors from the Redmond Historical Commission will portray members of Redmond’s founding families and other notable historical characters, including Frank Redmond and Tom McCall. Thompson says these events are just the beginning. The largest events are slated for the Fourth of July weekend and during September. Alandra Johnson can be reached at 541-617-7860 or at ajohnson@bendbulletin.com.

$1,000, purchasing the licensing right to produce the show costs $450 and printing programs and posters cost a few hundred dollars. Molner believes they will make back the money, but if not, he feels it will be worth it. The pair hope “The Laramie Project” is just the beginning for the theater company. They plan to select a new student to work alongside Molner to produce a new play while Adler will be away at college. They want all of the shows to be artistically demanding with a small cast and to deal with serious issues. Alandra Johnson can be reached at 541-617-7860 or at ajohnson@bendbulletin.com.

pring weather patterns have been so unsettling, it makes us wonder what the summer will be like. There is no gospel for weather in Central Oregon, and although the coming weekend seems to be the traditional planting weekend, don’t stress yourself if you have to wait an extra week or maybe longer to get your plants outside. Last year, my tomatoes didn’t meet the garden until the middle of June. A tender transplant or a seed aren’t going to make much headway if we are still experiencing chilly nights and cold rainy days. I recorded many days in early June 2009 of heavy rains and flooded underpasses. Once the weather cooperates, we are ready for transplanting. All transplants that have been grown in an indoor or controlled environment should be introduced to outdoor temperatures over a period of a week to 10 days. By doing this in increased hours each day, you will reduce the risk of transplant shock, which refers to the setback in growth when plants are moved from one environment to another. See Transplant / F5

To add some excitement and flavor to your backyard barbecuing this summer, make your own rubs at home. That’s what nationally renowned Chicago chef Rick Tramonto does. In his seventh cookbook published this spring, “Steak with Friends At Home, with Rick Tramonto,” Tramonto shares sophisticated but easy-to-cook meals that are made for sharing with family and friends. He includes four of his favorite recipes for rubs (see Page F2) that can be sprinkled on meat, poultry or fish right before grilling, or may be left on the food for several hours (or overnight) in the refrigerator. “The thing I dig about rubs so much is the crust that you can achieve, and it’s the coloring, the caramelization, the depth of flavor, too,” he said in a recent phone interview. “That’s what I really love about rubs.” See Rubs / F2
Introduce transplants to the outdoors gradually over a week to 10 days.
Tomatoes, eggplants and peppers can be planted quite deep — up to the first set of leaves.
Water the planting area the day before transplanting.

Puppy-proof your pad By Leon Pantenburg For The Bulletin
My 9-year-old purebred Lab, Belle, has the run of the house. She sleeps on her bed in the master bedroom and can be left unsupervised in the house for hours. She doesn’t get on the furniture and never chews anything. She likes to hang out with me, and after dinner, she makes sure we go for a walk. Except for the inevitable dog hair on the carpet, Belle’s presence is wonderful. She is an important part of the family.
HOME But Belle, like so many other dogs, lost her first home because of typical puppy behavior. The first owner hadn’t understood how active and destructive those cute, cuddly baby dogs can be. Belle awoke during the night, whined and kept everyone awake. She couldn’t be left unsupervised because she chewed shoes, furniture, table legs and her leash. Belle “went” wherever and whenever she needed, and jumped,
lunged and pulled at the end of a leash. We adopted 12-week-old Belle after she was given up to the Humane Society. But we knew what we were in for, and my kids made sure Belle got lots of attention. Don’t bring a puppy home and expect it to act like an adult dog, because it just won’t happen for a minimum of several months. Before you get a puppy, there are several things you can do to puppy-proof your home, and make the experience enjoyable. See Puppy-proof / F4

Continued from F1 Tramonto’s technique is to generously and evenly sprinkle the food that will be grilled with the rub. Then he rubs the spice mixture in with his fingertips. “They are not coatings that are just dumped on the food,” he writes. Since rub mixtures tend to stick to the hands as much as they stick to the meat, Tramonto said he sometimes puts apple juice or wine in a spray bottle and gives the meat a quick squirt. It helps the rub stick to the meat a little better. After the food is refrigerated overnight, Tramonto sprinkles on a little more rub right before grilling. “That overnight rub penetrates pretty far down, and when you do another rub before it hits the grill, that really solidifies your crust and the coloring, and getting those great reds and browns and the wonderful crunch outside of whatever it is, so when you start to eat, it’s just magic,” he said. If you’re a Midwesterner or a serious foodie, you’re probably familiar with Tramonto. He’s the award-winning chef/partner of several Chicago-area restaurants, including Tru, Tramonto’s Steak & Seafood and RT Sushi Bar & Lounge. He’s been on TV’s “Top Chef” and “Iron Chef.” After 30 years of professional cooking, Tramonto said he wanted to get more personal in his new cookbook and share a glimpse into his life at home with his wife and three sons. He said his goal was to show people how to achieve the great flavors of his restaurant food at home. “I wanted to open up and say, ‘This is what I do at home, this is my faith, my family, my kids,’ and kind of inspire people to cook more at home and take that journey a little more, especially in these economic times,” he said. Here’s what Tramonto had to say in our quick Q&A: What’s your favorite grilling rub? I really love my pork rub because the paprika and the chili powder and the brown sugar give great color, great caramelization and big, big flavors with the cumin and mustard and the curry powder. Why should the home cook be adventurous and make rubs at home when there are so many available in the store?

I think it’s like anything, you get to control your own thing. You like onion in something? You put it in. You don’t like onion? You leave it out. It’s not so much about being adventurous; it’s about knowing yourself, it’s about teaching yourself how to cook and what your palate likes and what your palate doesn’t like, and you get to control the salt levels for people who have issues with that. I like more garlic, I like more heat, so I want more chili. You can make a custom blend. Of course, there are so many rubs out there. You can go buy Emeril’s rub or Bobby Flay’s rub or somebody else’s rub, and if you like that and it saves you time, and you’ve tried 10 of them and you find the two you really like, that’s great. Why use a rub instead of a marinade? Is it the crust that you get from a rub that makes it different? Yes, that’s the whole premise. With a marinade, you get some caramelization, no doubt, especially if there’s balsamic vine-

gar or soy sauce or some sugars in there, but you don’t get that outer crust. It’s really the crustiness you get with the rub. If the home cook uses a rub, would you also recommend serving a sauce on the side at mealtime? You know what, I’m a huge sauce person. I just love to dip, whether it’s just Dijon mustard — I like steak and Dijon mustard — or steak sauces or salsas. I love sauces whether there are rubs or marinades. Some people say, “I’m a purist, I don’t like anything on my food,” and that’s fine. But for me, I love sauce. I love dips. I love mustards. I love to dip stuff in stuff to get different flavor profiles as I go. So, even if you’ve grilled with a rub, it’s OK to offer steak sauce or other sauces on the table? I have three boys that are always grabbing the ketchup bottle, so I’m not offended in any way!

The Blacksmith Restaurant’s executive chef Gavin McMichael loves to use grilling rubs at his Bend restaurant, which specializes in “new ranch cuisine.” So McMichael recently launched a line of eight rubs and spice blends that you’ll find in local stores (Newport Avenue Market, Whole Foods Market and Ray’s Food Place in Bend, and the Sunriver grocery stores so far). The rubs are also available for purchase online (www.bend blacksmith.com) and at the restaurant for $8 each. The flavors are Blacksmith’s Famous BBQ Steak Rub, Coco Loco Aztec Rub, Steakhouse Classic Rub, Verde-Q Green Chile BBQ Rub and Coriander Conundrum. He also has Emerald Bay Seafood Seasoning, Salmon King Spice and Campfire Pan Fry Mix. “I’m trying to do some really different and fun things with these rubs,” McMichael said. “I’ve had an enormous amount of fun testing and tasting them. You’re almost unlimited in the things you can do with rubs. Do you like Indian food? You can do an Indian-style rub. Coriander Conundrum was inspired that way.” McMichael recommends putting a little canola or other mild oil on your meat before sprinkling it with a rub. “A little oil is best for meats that aren’t real fatty, like chicken and pork. You don’t necessarily need it with steaks, but the oil helps the rub adhere and it’ll perform better on the grill,” he said. The Blacksmith rubs and seasoning mixes are the first in a line of food products that McMichael is debuting this year. Coming soon are “Miracle Grills” seasoning blends designed to add instant flavor as you’re grilling meats or vegetables. “They’re a combination of infused sugars and salts, like one with green chili sugar and lime-infused salt. Grind it onto the food, and it adds huge amounts of flavor. It’s really cool,” McMichael said. Look for bread-dipping sauces, polenta mixes and other Blacksmith Restaurant-inspired food products soon from McMichael, too. But, in the meantime, if you’re not in the mood to mix up your own rubs, let the Blacksmith Restaurant do it for you. The Blacksmith Restaurant, Bar & Lounge is located at 211 N.W.

F Lighten up dessert with these treats
These wrappers fit more than Asia
By Stephanie Witt Sedgwick Special to The Washington Post
By Bill Daley
I love warm fruit desserts, but they tend to be a little heavy. As the weather gets hotter, I want lighter options. These little lowfat cakes fill the bill. The peaches are the one last-minute item; it takes only a few minutes to grill and slice them. I especially love how easily the skins slip off after the fruit is grilled. The technique cuts the prep time for the peaches to almost nothing. The recipe for the angel food cakes, adapted from “Joy of Cooking,” by Irma S. Rombauer, Marion Rombauer Becker and Ethan Becker (Scribner, 1997), makes 12 small (cup)cakes. You’ll need only six for this dessert. The extras can be tucked into a lunch box or served as a snack.
Chicago Tribune
ANGEL FOOD ‘SHORTCAKES’ Makes 6 servings. FRUIT 16 oz strawberries, washed, hulled and sliced (about 3 cups) 2 TBS orange-flavored liqueur, such as Grand Marnier 2 TBS sugar 3 large ripe peaches, cut in half, pit removed CAKES 1 ⁄2 C cake flour 3 ⁄4 C sugar 1 ⁄4 tsp salt 5 to 6 lg egg whites (3⁄4 C) 11⁄2 tsp water Juice of 1⁄4 lemon (11⁄2 tsp) 1 ⁄2 tsp cream of tartar 1 ⁄2 tsp vanilla extract 1 ⁄8 tsp almond extract For the strawberries: Combine the fruit, liqueur and sugar. Mix to coat, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours and up to 12 hours. For the cakes: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line a standard muffin pan with 12 paper liners. Sift together the cake flour, half of the sugar and the salt; sift the mixture 2 more times. Combine the egg whites, water, lemon juice, cream of tartar and the vanilla and almond extracts in the bowl of a stand mixer (use a balloon whisk attachment) or hand-held electric mixer. Beat on low speed for 1 minute to incorporate the ingredients, then increase the speed to medium and beat for 1 to 3 minutes, until the mixture is foamy and has increased in volume by 4 to 5 times. Add the remaining sugar, 1 tablespoon at a time. The foam should be a glossy white and hold a soft peak when the whisk or beaters are lifted out. Do not overbeat. Transfer the beaten egg white mixture to a large mixing bowl. Sift about one-quarter of the flour-sugar mixture over the egg whites, then use a large rubber spatula to gently fold the mixture into the egg whites. Repeat until all of the flour mixture is incorporated. Spoon the batter into the paper liners. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, until the cakes are firm to the touch and their tops are lightly browned. Let the cakes rest in the pan for 5 minutes; then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. For the peaches: Prepare the grill for direct heat. If using a gas grill, preheat to medium-high (450 degrees). If using a charcoal grill, light the charcoal or wood briquettes. Lightly coat a grill rack with oil and place it on the grill. Place the peach halves on the grill, cut sides down. Cover and grill for 3 to 4 minutes, until the peaches have grill marks and are heated through. Flip, cover and cook for 1 to 2 minutes or until the skin of the peaches loosens. To assemble: Use a serrated knife to cut each cake into 3 equal slices (cross-section), which will be the bottom, middle and top. Place 1 set of bottom and middle slices on a plate. Slice one of the peach halves into 5 or 6 slices and fan them out over the cake slices. Spoon 1⁄2 C of the strawberries over the peaches, making sure to include some of the juice. Stack the middle slice with fruit on top of the bottom slice. Top with the remaining slice of cake.
Wonton wrappers fried as-is until crunchy are an irresistible nibble, as anyone chowing down at a Chinese restaurant well knows. What you may not realize is how wonton and similar Asian wrappers make great platforms on which to build all sorts of hors d’oeuvres as well as non-Asian dishes, such as ravioli or the German dumplings here. Cut larger wrappers into smaller canape-size pieces. Heat a shallow layer of oil in a skillet; fry the wontons until both sides are crispy and golden, 2 to 4 minutes. Drain fried wontons on paper towels. Assemble appetizers while the wrappers are still warm, or store the wrappers, covered, for up to three days. Let your imagination guide your topping choices. Use leftovers, deli items or kitchen staples. Here are toppings to consider: • Smoked salmon, sour cream, minced chives • Shredded leftover roast pork, barbecue sauce • Chicken salad, paprika, minced parsley • Chinese hot mustard, sliced ham, mango chutney • Pickled herring, minced red onion, dill sprig • Refried beans, sliced Spanish chorizo, diced jalapeño • Smoked fish pate, minced parsley • Chicken liver paté, chopped scallions • Roast beef, horseradish sour cream sauce, caper • Guacamole, boiled shrimp, salsa
SQUASH AND LENTIL RAVIOLI Makes 60 dumplings. 1 sm butternut squash, split and seeded ¼ C dried green lentils, rinsed 7 sm amaretti cookies, coarsely crushed ½ C grated Parmesan cheese ½ tsp salt ¼ tsp pepper 1 ⁄8 tsp each: ground cinnamon, grated nutmeg 2 ⁄3 C coarse bread crumbs 60 round wonton or potsticker wrappers Flour for dusting ½ stick (¼ C) butter 1 sprig fresh rosemary 1 clove garlic, minced Heat oven to 375 degrees. Place squash, flesh side down, on an oiled baking sheet. Roast until soft, 30-40 minutes. Fill a saucepan with water; heat to a boil. Add the lentils; cover. Simmer until tender, 40-50 minutes. Drain; mash lightly. Remove squash from oven; cool. Scoop the flesh out of the squash; mash in a medium bowl until almost smooth. Place the squash on a clean kitchen towel; bring together the ends of the towel. Twist to squeeze out as much liquid as you can. Return squash to bowl. Mix in amaretti, Parmesan, salt, pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg. Stir in the lentils and bread crumbs. Cover; refrigerate 30-60 minutes. Line a tray with a kitchen towel; sprinkle with a little flour. Lay flat 1 to 5 wrappers on a work surface. Brush each with a thin coating of water. Center a teaspoon of filling on each. Fold wrappers in half; pinch to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers. Fill a large pot halfway with salted water; heat to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to medium for a steady simmer. Gently add half of the ravioli, a few at a time, stirring carefully to prevent sticking. Cook until ravioli float, 2-3 minutes; cook 3 minutes longer. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a large bowl. Repeat with remaining ravioli. Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat; add the rosemary and garlic. Cook until the butter and garlic turn a light brown, about 3 minutes. Discard the rosemary. Drain the ravioli. Place in serving bowl; toss gently with butter.

When you tire of chicken, try bison. Just take care you don’t dry it out, and remember to perk it up, too.
Bison burgers please with piquant flavors By Joe Gray Chicago Tribune
It’s a chicken-filled world. At least at my house. Sautéed chicken, roast chicken, chicken sausages in a variety of flavor combinations. Though I appreciate the bird’s lean nutritional profile, I appreciate more the occasional detour from our fine feathered friend to another tasty beast, bison. The meat needs care, however, to prevent its drying out,
and it needs perking up. This burger applies Mediterranean flavors to the American animal, to delicious effect. It’s quick and easy to prepare. A crunchy side of fennel and radicchio slaw would be welcome. Out of breadcrumbs? Crunch up some crackers instead with a rolling pin or food processor. No bison in your store or your culinary lexicon? Substitute ground beast of another nature: turkey, chicken, beef, lamb.
Bill Hogan / Chicago Tribune
Wonton wrappers can be used as the vessel to hold ingredients for appetizers or to create these beef-and-spinach-filled dumplings in a beef broth.
MEDITERRANEAN BISON BURGER Makes 4 servings.
BEEF AND SPINACH DUMPLINGS IN BROTH Makes 6 servings. FILLING 3 C ½ -inch crustless white bread cubes 1 ⁄3 C milk 3 strips bacon, finely chopped 1 sm yellow onion, minced 1 clove garlic, minced ½ lb ground beef ½ tsp freshly grated nutmeg
½ C thawed, chopped frozen spinach ¼ C chopped flat-leaf parsley 1 lg egg yolk 1 tsp salt WRAPPERS AND BROTH 50 round or square wonton or potsticker wrappers 8 C low-sodium beef broth 1 tsp salt
For the filling, place the bread cubes in a large bowl; add milk. Work the mixture with hands until the bread becomes small bits. Squeeze out any excess milk by small handfuls; place the bread pulp in a bowl. Place the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat; cook 3 minutes. Add onion; cook over high heat, stirring, until bacon is lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Mix in the garlic and the beef; cook, stirring to break up meat, until beef is browned, about 3 minutes. Mix in the nutmeg. Let cool slightly in the pan. Place in a food processor with the spinach; pulse until the beef is minced. Transfer to a large bowl; mix in the bread pulp, parsley, egg yolk and salt. Cover; refrigerate 30-60 minutes. Lay 4-6 wrappers on a work surface; brush half of them with a little water. Place a rounded tablespoon of filling in the center of each. Top each with an unbrushed wrapper. Press the edges of the dough together; pinch to seal. Place the dumplings in a single layer on a floured kitchen towel on a tray; keep covered with a towel. Repeat with remaining wrappers. Meanwhile, heat the broth to a boil in a large saucepan over high heat. Stir in the salt; cover. Reduce the heat to medium. Gently drop half of the dumplings, one at a time, into the broth. Stir carefully to prevent sticking. Cook until all are floating, 2-3 minutes; cook 3 more minutes. Remove to a plate; top with a spoonful of the broth. Cook the remaining dumplings. Return the first batch to the broth; heat to warm through.
CHIVE-STUFFED DUMPLINGS WITH TOMATO AND YOGURT SAUCES Makes 50 dumplings. YOGURT SAUCE 2 C whole-milk Greek yogurt 2 cloves garlic, minced FILLING AND WRAPPERS 2 C chopped garlic chives 2 tsp ground pepper 1 tsp ground turmeric ½ tsp each: salt, ground cumin, ground cinnamon 50 round or square wonton or potsticker wrappers
TOMATO SAUCE ¼ C canola oil 1 sm yellow onion, minced ¼ lb lean ground beef 6 ripe plum tomatoes, peeled, seeded, crushed, or 1½ C canned crushed tomatoes 1 clove garlic, minced 1 tsp grated ginger root ½ tsp salt ¼ tsp ground pepper ¼ C finely shredded mint
For yogurt sauce, mix the yogurt and garlic in a medium bowl. Cover; refrigerate at least 2 hours. For the filling, combine ingredients (except wrappers) in a medium bowl, “scrunching” the chives as you mix until they are wilted and soft. For dumplings, lay 1-5 wrappers on a work surface. Brush each with a thin coating of water. Center a teaspoon of filling on each. Fold each in half; pinch to seal. Dab a little water along the edges, if needed, for a better seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers and refrigerate up to 1 hour. For the tomato sauce, heat the oil in a skillet over high heat. Add the onion; cook, stirring, until the onion begins to brown, about 4 minutes. Add the beef; cook, stirring to break up clumps, until browned, 5-6 minutes. Mix in the tomatoes, garlic, ginger, salt and pepper. Reduce heat to low; cook until the tomatoes break down into the sauce, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat; keep warm. Spread half of the yogurt sauce across a large platter; let the rest of the yogurt come to room temperature. Fill a large pot halfway with salted water; heat to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium. Gently drop a few dozen dumplings, a few at a time, into the water. Cook until all are floating, about 3 minutes; cook 2 more minutes. Transfer dumplings to a large bowl; drizzle with a ladle of the cooking liquid. Keep warm. Repeat with the remaining dumplings. Drain dumplings; arrange on top of the yogurt sauce on the platter. Spoon the remaining yogurt sauce over the dumplings. Spoon the tomato sauce over all. Sprinkle with fresh mint.
1 lb ground bison 8 green olives, chopped 3 sun-dried tomato halves in oil, chopped 1 egg, slightly beaten ½ C breadcrumbs
¾ tsp salt Freshly ground pepper 2 TBS olive oil 1 red onion, cut in thin slices 1 TBS balsamic vinegar 4 buns, toasted
Place bison in a large bowl; break up slightly with fork. Add olives, sun-dried tomato and egg; work together with your hands until just mixed (don’t overwork). Add breadcrumbs, ¼ teaspoon of the salt and pepper to taste; mix until just combined. Form into four patties; season them on both sides with ¼ teaspoon of the salt and pepper to taste. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large skillet; add patties. Cook, turning once, until browned on both sides and medium rare, 9 minutes. Meanwhile, heat remaining 1 tablespoon of the oil in a second large skillet; add onion, seasoning with remaining ¼ teaspoon of the salt. Cook onions until soft and translucent, stirring in balsamic vinegar when almost done, 8 minutes. Serve burgers on buns topped with onions and condiments of your choice.
Flavors fade as we age, but there are ways to compensate McClatchy-Tribune News Service MIAMI — The table is set for company: Villeroy and Boch china, Hepp silverware, fresh flowers in a crystal vase. The wait staff is clad in impeccable white and black, and a darksuited director of dining services greets many of the bejeweled diners by name. At the Classic Residence by Hyatt in Aventura, Fla., dining is about more than food. It is intended as a sensual experience, complete with gourmet dishes and well-appointed surroundings. In this affluent community, the Culinary Institute of America-trained chef faces three challenges: aging palates, health-related food restrictions and a demanding clientele accustomed to the finer things in life, including well-prepared meals.
Taste tips Flavors fading? These tips can help: • Use salt-free seasonings like Mrs. Dash. • Substitute high-flavor ingredients for salty or sugary ones — lemon juice for salad dressing, vanilla for sugar. • Limit use of over-thecounter nasal sprays, which can dull your sense of smell. “I must find the balance between certain health concerns and changing tastes, and the variety and quality they are used to,” says executive chef Robert Ibgui, whose 24-member staff prepares about 500 meals a day.

H To clean siding, perhaps a brush is best By Al Heavens The Philadelphia Inquirer
Q:
We’re about to powerwash our white, vinylsided garage. I know from experience this may leave a rough, chalky finish. Is there a clear, vinyl-compatible sealer that can be applied to the cleaned areas? I’ve come across a number of ads by professionals who say they can apply sealer to vinyl siding, but I’ve not yet come across a doit-yourself product. Most of what I know about vinyl siding I’ve picked up from the Vinyl Siding Institute, and after reading everything on its website, I’ve concluded that sealing vinyl siding might not be encouraged. In fact, if the result of power-washing your vinyl-sided garage is a rough, chalky finish, you might want to stop doing it. Some manufacturers don’t want pressure washers used on their products at all. Others allow them but limit the amount of pressure and the cleaners that can be used. What the institute suggests is washing it with a soft cloth or ordinary long-handled, soft-bristle brush. For textured surfaces, use only a soft bristle brush to keep the grooves in the texture stain-free. For best results, start at the bottom of the house and work up. Rinse the cleaning solution completely before it dries. The website, www.vinyl siding.org, matches a list of cleaners to use with stains. The caveat: Do not use cleaners containing organic solvents, undiluted chlorine bleach, liquid grease remover, nail polish remover, or furniture polish or cleaners. They can affect the surface of the siding. Even if there is a sealer you can use, consider this: If painting vinyl siding can affect the warranty, so could applying a sealer. Check with the manufacturer before you proceed.

COVER STORY
Puppy-proof Continued from F1 To start with, know what you’re getting into. Dogs younger than 3 months old should be considered infants, says Lynne Ouchida, community outreach coordinator for the Humane Society of Central Oregon, and they need a lot of care and attention. Between the ages of 3 and 6 months, the puppy is a juvenile and will still need constant supervision. “First-time dog owners will adopt puppies and have no idea what they’re getting in for,” Ouchida said. “After a few weeks, an unprepared owner may wonder why they ever got the dog. Even the expensive, designer-breed puppies are challenging. That’s one reason why about 30 percent of the puppies donated to the shelters are purebred.” Many first-time dog owners would be happier with an older
animal, Ouchida said, because the destructive puppy days would be over. But if you decide to bring a puppy into your home, here are some tips that may help keep the animal safe, your home damage to a minimum and your sanity intact.
A safe environment To puppy-proof your house and yard before the animal is brought home: • Remove or safely secure electrical wire. • Low, open windows can be a quick exit, so make sure they are closed. • Put up that dish of candy or chocolates — a puppy will eat anything, and chocolate is toxic to dogs. • Secure toxic household cleaners. • Many house plants are toxic to dogs, including cutleaf philodendron, dieffenbachia, peace lily and devil’s ivy. Keep these plants
“First-time dog owners will adopt puppies and have no idea what they’re getting in for. After a few weeks, an unprepared owner may wonder why they ever got the dog.” — Lynne Ouchida, Humane Society of Central Oregon out of the puppy’s reach • In the garage: Antifreeze is poisonous, and many plastic cans of chemicals, oil, fertilizer, etc., can be deadly. • In the yard: Secure fertilizers and yard chemicals. Never put rodent killer substances where your dog could get into them. Supervise the puppy around potentially toxic landscape plants such as foxglove and holly.
Reduce damage inside • Wrap furniture legs with aluminum foil; dogs typically don’t like to chew that material. • Limit where the puppy can
go. Shut closet doors, and use childproof gates to confine and limit access. • Don’t give a puppy the run of the house. Find a room or place where the puppy can be confined, and make sure the floor is vinyl or some hard surface material that is easy to clean. Don’t let the puppy out of that space unless it can be supervised. If there is no space in your house or yard where you can safely confine a puppy when you are gone, consider a crate. • Put a carpet scrap or dog bed near the door the puppy usually uses to go outside. Train the dog to lie down on the bed or carpet each time it comes indoors to minimize

tracking in mud. In every dog person’s life there comes a point where that beloved best friend must be replaced with a new dog. There are many older dogs, Ouchida says, that will make great pets and keep you from having to go through the puppy days. “You might be happier with an adult dog,” Ouchida says. “Our goal is to make sure that you get the right pet, and that the animal’s first home is also its last home.” Leon Pantenburg can be reached at lpantenburg@ bendbroadband.com.
Lost luxuries: Bring the beauty back home By Barbara Mahany Chicago Tribune
CHICAGO — A mere century and a half ago, one Isabella Mary Mayson sat down and penned what would become Victorian England’s rip-roarin’ bestseller of the moment. It was titled, “Mrs. Beeton’s Book of Household Management.” The dang thing had 2,751 entries — from how to cut a side of lamb to just when to put away the white summer curtains — spelled out across more than 1,680 pages. And back in 1861, millions of copies were sold. Millions. Then came the bra-burning latter half of the 20th century, and along with it permanent-press sheets, the paper napkin and Hamburger Helper served up on melamine plates. We say, Whoa. We might have ditched too much. Lost all hints of luxury in the household department. And while no one’s recommending a return to the drudgery, we are saying there’s both reason and a way to bring back at least a handful of those high notes to the homefront. Backing us up on all this is Eddie Ross, former senior style editor at Martha Stewart Living, now a stylin’ blogger (eddieross .com), and a man who oozes the art of the beautiful. We asked what he’d bring back home from the land of lost luxuries, and how to get the job done, the 2010 way.

Why it will change your life: Have you ever slipped beneath a creaseless high-thread-count sheet (think hotel linens), one where the cuff met your cheek with all its pristine softness intact? Now picture yourself pulling the covers up to your chin only to encounter a crinkly mess that will never, ever look or feel as good as it did before it went through the wash. How your grandma got it done: She set aside a whole day for ironing, darn it. How you can make it happen: We say never mind the parts that you can’t see. Just put that hot iron to the pillow case, and the top quarter of the top sheet. Says Ross: “You spend more than half your life in bed; why not have beautiful, crisp sheets?” You can even try the super shortcut: Just press the cuffs of pillowcase and sheet, and see what a difference that makes. An anti-wrinkle trick: Never let your sheets and pillowcases fully dry. Set the dryer to “less dry”; makes for easier ironing.

one at that; and 4) If you’ve got messy kids around, the extra absorbency of cloth can be a godsend. How your grandma got it done: She washed and ironed every blessed damask square. Week after week. How you can make it happen: Ditch the iron here. Go for rumpled. Says Ross: ”It’s a much more casual look.” Check the napkins for cleanliness, and if they’re still acceptable, let everyone use the same napkin again tomorrow. (Keep them sorted by using a distinct napkin ring for each person in the family.)
The centerpiece Why it will change your life: A beautifully set table, we believe, is a sacred gift to those who’ll sit down to share the feast. Even if it’s plain old PB&J. How your grandma got it done: Maybe she had a weekly delivery from FTD. How you can make it happen: Grab your clippers and have at your garden. After all, why keep all that loveliness outside for the pesky squirrels to chomp? A fat handful of stems is all you need. Or plunk
down a few pots of herbs. Or a mound of lemons. Says Ross: “There’s more of a wow factor in numbers.” He’d go with, say, a dozen apples, recommending you eat ’em and replenish with whatever is in season. Would he ever go with fake, we asked timidly. “I would not,” he replied boldly. Instead, he’d go for a few real branches — forsythia, dogwood, quince, whatever you can clip.
Lined shelves Why it will change your life: Is there anything so sublime as opening up a boring old linen closet and seeing shelves spruced with pretty printed paper? And once you line those horizontal planes, your bed things will glide on and off the shelf, with nary a stumble or a splinter. How your grandma got it done: Chances are, she stuck to plain white rolls of paper. Cut and tacked it down. Might even have muttered a swear word or two when, after all that, the paper promptly ripped. How you can make it happen: Double-stick tape. Just plop it down and add paper of your dreams. Ross insists there are some really fine Contac papers

out there these days. He also frequents Paper Source (paper source.com), where he finds gorgeous precut papers for all of $1.99. Go for smooth, not chunky, textured papers. And he’d steer clear of dark red or navy papers: “You never know what sort of dyes are used, and it could stain your linens.”
China, silver and assorted heirlooms Why it will change your life: Because isn’t it true that the ones you love the most, the ones you live with day after day, are worth the good stuff? Why let all the pretties gather dust when you can elevate any old weeknight dinner? And besides, setting the table with heirloom hand-me-downs is a way of bringing history to the everyday. How your grandma got it done: She kept the good stuff tucked away in her china cabinet. Washed it all by hand. Used it once, maybe twice a year. How you can make it happen: For starters, keep it close at hand. The more you use silver, the less it will tarnish. And speaking of tarnish, why not just embrace it a little? Ross says he loves the aged look of goldedged plates that have been run through the dishwasher. It adds to the patina. And when it is time to shine up that silver, he swears by SimiChrome Polish, which you can find online or at finer hardware stores.

For folks with small patios and balconies, or renters with no need to invest in the landscape, container plantings may be the best choice for a garden.
Succulents are perfect for container gardens By Adrian Higgins The Washington Post
Container plantings bring color and joy to every patio. For city dwellers with small patios and balconies, or renters with no need to invest in the landscape, they may be the only garden to have. But the watering needs are a burden. In the sapping heat of July and August, pots may require a soak twice a day to prevent annuals and tropicals from wilting. And what happens when you go on vacation, or have to travel for work? As we toss the pansies for seasonal pots over the next two or three weeks, we are drawn to the wisdom and foresight of that great showman and gardener P.T. Barnum, who famously uttered: “There’s a succulent born every minute.” Or something like that. In container gardens, succulents are a class of plants that come to the rescue in strangely beautiful forms. A few have been around for years, notably hardy hens-and-chicks or tender portulacas. Others have occupied only the arcane world of the rock garden hobbyist. But a resurgent interest in succulents has spawned breeding and marketing programs that have produced an expanding palette of contrasting shapes, sizes and colors. Agaves, echeverias, aloes, stonecrops and aeoniums are now part of the savvy gardener’s vocabulary. They share a key common trait: no need to be watered. Once popular in arid states, “the craze has gone all over now,” says Chris Berg, spokesman for EuroAmerican Propagators, a major grower in Bonsall, Calif. “They’re stylish plants.” You can even make a handsome combination of hardy succulents that will survive the winter outdoors, though you have to use a container that is frost-proof.

The small joys of rock gardens By Ginny Smith
Resources
The Philadelphia Inquirer
PHILADELPHIA — Fashionistas in the garden like those great big blooms with petals thick as petticoats, but there’s another way to go: rock-garden plants. Their flowers are small, subtle and every bit as beautiful as their hefty peers, as Ann Rosenberg, of Bryn Mawr, Pa., discovered around 1985. On a trip to England that year, she delighted in some small penstemons, which sparked an interest in other plants commonly used in rock gardens. “They’re so cute!” she says. They’re usually less than 4 inches tall, maybe as tall as 12 inches if you count things like dwarf conifers, another popular rock-garden feature. Their flowers can be very colorful and disproportionately large, and you can squeeze a lot of them into a small space, something all gardeners seem genetically wired to do. Shaped like buns, mats and cushions, these tiny plants are tucked into crevices and fissures, where there may be little soil, their diminutive stature intended to show off the color, form, size and texture of the rocks. That “small space” can be a container, a trough or a raised bed, a bonsai dish, antique sink or perennial patch. Fill can be a mix of topsoil and sand, gravel or weathered rock fragments known as scree. The “garden” can even be a wall: Morris Arboretum in Philadelphia’s Chestnut Hill, has a 6-foot wall made of Wissahickon schist that’s tufted with jewel-toned alpine plants. Rosenberg doesn’t have a rock garden per se; she uses homegrown rock-garden plants to create a dreamy woodland behind

Clem Murray / Philadelphia Inquirer
Pat Valentine, 58, holds a pot of “Thrift,” or Armeria Juniperifolia, the botanical name, while standing in front of the figure 8 “rock garden island” he built on his property in Coatesville, Pa. her house. There, clouds of softblue forget-me-nots and ultraviolet wildflowers known as bluets (or Quaker ladies) line the gently curved paths. They brighten a cloudy day like minuscule spar-
klers, set against the tart springgreen of everything else. Rosenberg also grows primula and armeria, daphne, dianthus, gentian, and mini-hosta and mini-narcissus in there, and in
rough troughs made by her husband, Dick. Gentiana acaulis is a favorite. It’s a kingfisher-blue gentian, 4 inches tall, an Alpine native with solitary trumpet flowers measur-
ing 2½ inches long. Imagine a hillside dotted with these. Which recalls this advice: Whatever form it takes, a rock garden should look natural, as if this craggy scene has been growing undisturbed for some time. Pat Valentine puts it simply: “A rock garden consists of plants planted next to rocks, but it’s not just that. There’s an extreme art to it,” he says. “You try to copy what’s growing on the side of a mountain.” Valentine owns Valentine Gardens, a specialty nursery in Coatesville, Pa., that propagates and sells unusual plants for rock, water, sun and shade gardens. He’s built a figure-eight rock garden in the sunny yard to show visitors how it’s done, at least in this country. (There are many distinct rock-garden cultures around the world.) But when asked to explain the attraction of these miniature landscapes of deep-rooted plants, Valentine’s as mushy as Rosenberg. “They’re so cute,” he says.
COVER STORY
Transplant Continued from F1 Choose a day that is overcast, if possible; if not, choose early morning or early evening to plant. Planting before plants flower will allow roots to establish in the ground, resulting in stronger plants and better long-term performance. Moisture is the first concern when planting outdoors, and it starts with watering the planting area the day before to ensure there is a uniform moisture level throughout the planting area. Water the plants thoroughly before taking them to the planting area, giving them enough time to completely absorb the moisture. Don’t let the plants dry out as you plant, and keep the plants in the shade until they are planted. Getting the transplants off and running can be done in several ways. Lucky gardeners who have a supply of worm castings will mix several tablespoons, or a small handful, of castings in the bottom of the planting hole. Not so lucky gardeners may use a starter solution of 1 tablespoon fish emulsion plus 1 tablespoon liquid seaweed to 1 gallon of water. Add about a cup in the transplant hole. Set the plant in, fill the hole with soil and press the soil firmly around the plant roots. Even if the soil feels moist, the transplants need additional water to settle them in and increase the soil-to-root contact to remove any air pockets. If your plants are in peat pots, be sure the top rim of the pot is covered with garden soil to prevent the pot from wicking water away from the roots. I don’t use peat pots, as they don’t seem to work for me. I have been experimenting with the “cowpots” made from composted cow manure. The pots are 100 percent biodegradable and my test pot has rapidly disintegrated in 45- to 50-degree soil in my greenhouse. I use the pots mainly for starting cucumbers. Most plants are planted to the garden at the same depth as in the pot. Tomatoes, eggplant and peppers have the ability to root along the stem and can be planted deeper, up to the first set of leaves. If your tomato plant is exceptionally tall, an alternative method of planting would be a trench method. The plant is laid horizontally in a trench and gently curved up to the soil surface. The advantage is that in our cool soil, the
Julie Johnson / The Bulletin
A simple wire-frame support for a frost-protecting garden cloth can be made of 14-gauge or larger wire inserted into holes drilled in the side of a garden container. Use clothespins to secure the cloth. roots are closer to the surface and would absorb more heat than if the plant was placed vertically, resulting in the deep roots remaining cool most of the season. Have you ever gone out the day following your planting and discovered your transplant nipped off at the soil level? That is from the cutworm that has been patiently waiting for a tender feast. These beetle larvae are grayish and curl up when exposed. The cutworm wraps itself around the stem of a plant and bites through it. Any method to encircle the plant to make this difficult or impossible for the cutworm will protect the plant. I have used bands of stiff paper to form a cylinder around the plant. Half the cylinder needs to be above soil level and half below. An idea from Nancy Bubel’s “Seed Starters Handbook” is to stick a small twig into the ground 3 inches below soil level and protruding 2 to 3 inches above the soil near each seedling. The twig should be right next to the plant stem, touching it, so that it forms a tough barrier around the plant and discourages the attack. I think I will try that system this year.
Many vegetable gardeners make provisions that will enable them to quickly protect with row covers, also called garden quilts or frost blankets. Wire hoops are either permanently attached to a raised bed by sinking the hoop into a pre-drilled hole on the top of the board, or by sinking the wire directly into the soil. The garden fabric is placed over the hoops and can be held in place over the wire hoops with clothespins and secured to the garden soil with good old Central Oregon rocks. The row cover can also be used as a protection and soil-warming blanket for direct-seeded beds. Plant the seed, water and cover with the row cover until the seeds germinate. Hold the cover in place with rocks or long garden staples that are pushed into the soil. As you make your covered structure, consider the mature height of the plant and then add a titch more. This would be especially important if you plan to use plastic as a frost protector. If a plant comes in contact with plastic covering, it is likely to be cold enough for the plant to suffer tissue damage. A product called Frost Protek is especially designed to protect
containers. The cylinder-shaped device comes with double-pull drawstrings for quick on/off protection. The cord locks hold the cover in place. If you enjoy DIY projects, you might want to stop at the Oregon State University Extension Office at the Deschutes County Fairgrounds and pick up the instructions on “How to Build Your Own Raised Bed Cloche” — Pub. #1627. You can view a finished structure constructed by a team of OSU Master Gardeners on the Extension grounds or find the instructions online at http://extension .oregonstate.edu/deschutes. Wall-O-Water, Kozy-Coat and Tomato Teepee are brands of early season plant protectors usually used for tomatoes, peppers and eggplants, as they are designed
to accommodate an individual plant rather than encircling an entire row. They consist connected tubes forming a vinyl ring 18 inches high and 18 inches in diameter. Each tube if filled with water. The water-filled ring encases the transplant and will raise the air and soil temperature by 5 degrees. The water soaks up the heat from the sun during the day and gradually releases it to the plants at night. One last thing: Mark your calendar for June 5 and the annual Central Oregon Master Gardeners Plant Sale, being held with the Larkspur Neighborhood Spring Festival located at the Bend Senior Center.

Use a few basic ingredients for a chemical-free cleaning Martha Stewart Living
down drain, and cover with a plug or rag. The mixture will work to break down any fats into salt and harmless gas. Flush with boiling water. (Be sure not to attempt this method immediately after using commercial cleansers, since the substances may interact dangerously.)
Many conventional cleaning products don’t just remove dirt. They also leave behind chemicals that can be dangerous to breathe or touch and that can contaminate soil and water once washed down the drain. For a less-toxic alternative, take an old-fashioned approach to cleaning: Use gentle soaps and basic kitchen staples, such as baking soda and white vinegar. You’ll have a fresh, clean house — and save money while you’re at it.
Laundry detergent Use a gentle, nontoxic soap or detergent, and boost the cleaning power as needed by adding 1⁄2 cup borax. This naturally occurring mineral has antiseptic, antibacterial, water-softening and whitening properties.
Do-it-yourself cleaners Consider your idea of what “clean” means. Many of us associate fragrance or bleach with sanitation because we’re used to the odor of the chemicals in commercial cleaning agents. Yet a truly clean house smells airfresh, not odor-laden. Anyone who has taken high school biology knows that microorganisms, including beneficial ones that live inside us, are omnipresent. Yes, we want to eliminate E. coli from countertops and bathroom fixtures and minimize the spread of viruses. But studies have shown that, in some cases, all you need is soap, warm water and a good scrub to protect your family from germs. The next time you need cleaning power, look around the kitchen. Baking soda and salt are mild abrasives. Distilled white vinegar and lemon juice are acidic and are effective at removing substances such as soap scum; they are also gentle bleaches. Add a few basic ingredients, such as liquid soap and borax (a naturally occurring mineral) to your cleaning cupboard, and you can tackle every room in the house. Here are some of our favorite recipes for homemade cleansers.
Oven cleaner If you don’t have a self-cleaning oven (which burns off residue at very high temperatures), try a paste of baking soda and water. Coat the oven surfaces with the paste (avoiding bare metal and heating elements), let stand overnight, and, while wearing gloves, use a plastic spatula to remove it.
Tub and tile cleaner Vinegar works well on soap scum and mineral deposits, but rinse thoroughly, since it can corrode some fixtures and etch glaze on tiles. You can also try tea-tree oil — 2 drops tea-tree oil with 1 cup water — in a spray bottle. A natural antiseptic and fungicide, tea-tree oil costs more than vinegar but will kill most types of mold and help prevent growth. As with all concentrated oils, it should be used with caution, since it can trigger allergic reactions if it comes into contact with skin. Pregnant women should consult a doctor before using it. You can also use the allpurpose cleaners recommended above.
Window and glass cleaner
All-purpose cleaner Try a solution of 2 tablespoons mild dishwashing liquid and 2 cups hot water. Sanitize countertops with white vinegar and hydrogen peroxide; spray the surface with one and then the other, and wipe (always keep them in separate, well-marked bottles; never mix them in the same bottle, and do not dilute). For a gentle scrub to use on countertops, sinks and faucets, make a paste with warm water and baking soda or boost cleaning power by using dishwashing liquid instead of the water.
Dishwashing liquid For greasy pots and pans (ex-
Use a mixture of equal parts white vinegar and hot water, or a few drops mild dishwashing liquid and hot water. If the latter solution leaves streaks, use less soap.
cept those with nonstick surfaces): Try scouring with salt. For burned saucepans: Fill the pan half full with water, spoon in baking soda, let it soak overnight, and bring to a boil. For baked-on grease: Scour with
a little less-toxic dishwasher powder.

She had a wonderful recipe for this dish that she found in a San Francisco newspaper 15 or 20 years ago that she unfortunately lost in a flood.

At only 323 calories and 9 grams of fat per serving, the dish was surprisingly rich and full of flavor. I realize this is not the exact recipe the reader was looking

The distilled white Japanese spirit called shochu can be used as a substitute in numerous cocktails calling for white spirits, but here it is showcased. Shochu, quite simply, is a flavorful, aromatic, usually clear distilled spirit with a rather low alcohol content: around 25 per-
cent by volume, or 50 proof. “It’s like Japanese vodka. That’s how I sometimes tell people to think of it,” says Andrew Stover, sommelier at Sei in Washington, D.C. Use shochu that is either barley- or sweet potato-based. Be sure to pour all of the ingredients from the shaker into the glass.

Here’s a trick to taking pie on the road By Kathleen Purvis McClatchy-Tribune News Service
Q:
I want to put homemade whipped cream on a banana cream pie for a friend’s birthday. Will the whipped cream “fall” if I take it in to work and give it to her? Should I just get canned whipped cream?
A:
Now, you know I’ll never tell you to resort to canned whipping topping. It has its uses, but most of them stop in college, the last time you can get away with squirting the stuff straight into your mouth. Your pie will travel better, though, if you do a couple of things. First, make the pie and
chill it. Then beat the whipping cream with a little confectioners’ sugar, maybe 1 tablespoon to 1 cup of cream. Confectioners’ sugar has cornstarch, which helps stabilize the cream. Take the pie and the whipped cream to work separately and top the pie when you get there. If you want the whipped cream
to travel even better, put a sieve or colander in a large plastic container with a lid, line it with a coffee filter and spoon in the whipped cream. That will let any excess liquid drain off while the cream will stay fluffy. If your co-workers are like mine, the pie won’t be around the office that long anyway.

Muddle the cucumber, the lemon and lime juices and the simple syrup in a cocktail shaker. Add the shochu, then fill halfway with ice. Pour, without straining, into a highball glass. Garnish with cracked peppercorns, if desired. Note: To make simple syrup, combine 1⁄2 C sugar and 1⁄2 C water in a pan over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Bring to a slow boil, then reduce the heat and cook for 5 minutes. Transfer to a heatproof container and let cool to room temperature.

A foreclosure sale is scheduled for 9/15/2010. Unless the lender who is foreclosing on this property is paid, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. The following information applies to you only if you occupy and rent this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a residential tenant. If the foreclosure goes through, the business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale has the right to require you to move out. The buyer must first give you an eviction notice in writing that specifies the date by which you must move out. The buyer may not give you this notice until after the foreclosure sale happens. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the buyer can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES YOU TO BE NOTIFIED IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNDER A LEGITIMATE RENTAL AGREEMENT, FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU A NOTICE IN WRITING A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE THE BUYER CAN REQUIRE YOU TO MOVE OUT. THE FEDERAL LAW THAT REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU THIS NOTICE IS EFFECTIVE UNTIL DECEMBER 31, 2012. Under federal law, the buyer must give you at least 90 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If you are renting this property under a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one- year lease), you may stay until the end of your lease term. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 90 days left. STATE LAW NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS IF THE FEDERAL LAW DOES NOT APPLY, STATE LAW STILL REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING BEFORE REQUIRING YOU TO MOVE OUT IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THE PROPERTY AS A TENANT IN GOOD FAITH. EVEN IF THE FEDERAL LAW REQUIREMENT IS NO LONGER EFFECTIVE AFTER DECEMBER 31, 2012, THE REQUIREMENT UNDER STATE LAW STILL APPLIES TO YOUR SITUATION. Under state law, if you have a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), the buyer must give you at least 60 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 30 days left. If you are renting under a month-to-month or week-to-week rental agreement, the buyer must give you at least 30 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. IMPORTANT: For the buyer to be required to give you a notice under state law, you must prove to the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale that you are occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The name and address of the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale is shown on this notice under the heading "TRUSTEE". You must mail or deliver your proof not later than 8/16/2010 (30 days before the date first set for the foreclosure sale). Your proof must be in writing and should be a copy of your rental agreement or lease. If you do not have a written rental agreement or lease, you can provide other proof, such as receipts for rent paid. ABOUT YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT Under state law, you may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR TENACY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out. You should contact the buyer to discuss that possibility if you would like to stay. Under state law, if the buyer accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the buyer becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise, the buyer is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf and you must move out by the date the buyer specifies in a notice to you. YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD TO ANOTHER BUSINESS OR INDIVIDUAL OR UNTIL A COURT OR A LENDER TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. AS EXPLAINED ABOVE, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO APPLY A DEPOSIT OR RENT YOU PREPAID AGAINST YOUR CURRENT RENT OBLIGATION. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE AND OF ANY NOTICE YOU GIVE OR RECEIVE CONCERNING THE APPLICATION OF YOUR DEPOSIT OR PREPAID RENT. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR HOME WITHOUT FIRST GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU MAY WISH TO CONSULT A LAWYER.
