Tough talk on deficit, but experts see little bite, mostly bark

Happy Father’s Day!

The wheel deal

By Keith Chu The Bulletin

WASHINGTON — Green eyeshades are replacing seersucker suits as the summer’s hottest fashion accessory on Capitol Hill.

With the federal deficit at the highest level since World War II and a high-stakes election season approaching, politicians have taken a renewed interest in reining in the federal deficit. But for all the bluster on both sides of the aisle, and from President Barack Inside Obama, federal • How budget experts Oregon’s say nearly evdelegation erything politivoted on cians are now big-money debating would do almost nothmeasures, ing to help the Page A4 country find its fiscal footing.

“Republicans have come up with little tiny spending cut gimmicks, the administration has little line-item (veto) gimmicks,” said Tad DeHaven, a federal budget analyst at the libertarian Cato Institute. “It’s political posturing and maneuvering.”

Oregon’s U.S. Congressional delegation hasn’t stayed away from the tough budget talking.

Rep. Greg Walden, R-Hood River, is helping to lead a GOP campaign to trim small, but wasteful, federal programs. Earlier this month, Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., called for cuts to defense spending as a way to begin to balance the budget. Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., is one who has generally stayed away from budget bluster.

Nearly every expert on federal budgets agrees that it’s the long-term growth in the Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security programs that poses the real threat to U.S. solvency.

“There is a structural, longterm problem, and I think just about everybody agrees with that,” said DeHaven.

Director: Problems overstated; agency is working to improve

By Nick Budnick The Bulletin

For months, headlines have focused on a former state liquor enforcement manager who apparently stole the identity of a murdered 3-year-old to avoid deportation to his native country of Bulgaria.

But internal documents show publicity over the man Bend licensees knew as Jason Evers is not the Oregon Liquor Control Commission’s sole worry. Even as the agency has become a lightning rod for criticism in recent years, records show it has also been dogged by internal allegations of mismanagement, lackadaisical self-regulation and inadequate record-keeping.

Last year, an internal audit that was not released publicly found that OLCC’s licensing of alcoholic beverage retailers — one of the agency’s main functions — had been significantly mismanaged. Its title: “Oregon Liquor Control Commission’s licensing function lacks accountability and effective oversight.”

See OLCC / A6

OLCC promises and actions In response to a 2006 internal investigation and a 2009 Oregon Department of Justice investigation into the Oregon Liquor Control Commission’s enforcement practices in Central Oregon, Executive Director Steve Pharo proposed a number of changes within the agency. The following is not a comprehensive list but includes specific actions Pharo said the agency would take:

A day of big-rig play helps support families

TOP NEWS INSIDE

OLCC audit cites a tangle of trouble

TUMALO — lot of big construction vehicles had tiny drivers on Saturday, when small children scrambled up the mammoth equipment and got behind the steering wheels, at the second annual Big Rig Celebration in Tumalo this Father’s Day weekend.

The youngsters were just playing and not actually driving. But they did help raise money for the local family support group Together for Children, which serves parents and children from birth to age 3. The first 100 children got in for free; after that, parents paid $5 per child for the event.

A

Inside the cab of a big front-discharge concrete mixer, George Pritchett, 30, of Bend, helped his 3year-old son, Jaden, talk on the truck’s radio.

When asked who he was talking to, Jaden had a simple answer: “people.”

“I like tractors,” Jaden added.

Pritchett said he was trying to set a good example for his son this Father’s Day weekend, by doing something active instead of hanging around the house, watching television. Pritchett, a landscaper, said his son wasn’t the only one enjoying the construction vehicles. Although he sometimes uses tractors for work, Pritchett said he doesn’t get to use the wide variety of equipment on display Saturday.

Industry offering relief often adds more debt

By Peter S. Goodman New York Times News Service

PALM BEACH, Fla. — For the companies that promise relief to Americans confronting swelling credit card balances, these are days of lucrative opportunity.

So lucrative, that an industry trade association, the U.S. Orga-

nizations for Bankruptcy Alternatives, recently convened here to forge deals and plot strategy. At a well-lubricated evening reception, a steel drum band played Bob Marley songs as hostesses in skimpy dresses draped leis around the necks of arriving entrepreneurs.

See Debt / A5

Proposed change: Hold regular meetings with Bend area licensees to improve communication Actual response: The agency held three meetings between July 2006 and mid-2009, when local licensees complained to local officials about OLCC practices. Since then, OLCC representatives have held three additional public meetings, and a fourth was canceled because licensees were hesitant to work directly with the agency.

Proposed change: Clarify rules and communication about incidents that can subsequently be used against licensees.

Actual response: The agency increased the number of ID checking classes offered.

The practice of “friendly” visits (i.e., visits from OLCC staffers to educate, rather than enforce violations) to 25 percent of licensees annually continued. The practice had already been in place for several years.

Proposed change: Develop a department within the OLCC to provide upfront education and support for licensees.

Actual response: Department not created. Agency executives cited budget constraints as the reason, though the OLCC’s budget has increased by $12.1 million since the 200709 biennium, according to the state Legislative Fiscal Office. The agency now says it will roll out a licensee education program in September.

Dismay, frustration and calls for change

By Cindy Powers The Bulletin

Steve Hebert / New York Times News Service

Linda Robertson signed up with a debt settlement company, which took nearly $2,500 in fees, before she was forced into bankruptcy anyway.

A newly disclosed internal audit of the Oregon Liquor Control Commission has spurred local reactions ranging from hope the agency will change to a call for its disbandment.

The June 2009 audit found the agency’s licensing practices were inconsistent, record keeping was lacking and, at times, OLCC upper management appeared to have been asleep at the wheel.

Agency executives say they’ve taken some steps to address the problems. At the same time, they also disagree with some of the more serious findings of the audit — a review Executive Director Steve Pharo is quick to point out he specifically asked for.

In budget crisis, states take aim at pension expenses

By Mary Williams Walsh New York Times News Service

Many states are acknowledging this year that they have promised pensions they cannot afford and are cutting once-sacrosanct benefits, to appease taxpayers and attack budget deficits.

Illinois raised its retirement age to 67, the highest of any state, and capped public pensions at $106,800 a year. Arizona, New York, Missouri and Mississippi will make people work more years to earn pensions. Virginia is requiring employees to pay into the state pension fund for the first time. New Jersey will not give anyone pension credit unless they work at least 32 hours a week.

“We can’t afford to deny reality or delay action any longer,” said Gov. Pat Quinn of Illinois, adding that his state’s pension cuts, enacted in March, will save some $300 million in the first year alone.

But there is a catch: Nearly all of the cuts so far apply only to workers not yet hired. Though heralded as breakthrough reforms by state officials, the cuts phase in so slow they are unlikely to save the weakest funds and keep them from running out of money. Some new rules may even hasten the demise of the funds they were meant to protect.

Lawmakers wanted to avoid legal battles or fights with unions, whose members can be influential voters. So they are allowing most public workers across the country to keep building up their pensions at the same rate as ever.

The tens of thousands of workers now on Illinois’s payrolls, for instance, will still get to retire at 60 — and some will as young as 55.

Colorado’s cuts One striking exception is Colorado, which has imposed cuts on its current workers, not just future hires, and even on people who have already retired. The retirees have sued to block the reduction.

Other states with shrinking funds and deep fiscal distress may be pushed in this direction and tempted to follow Colorado’s example in the coming years.

Though most state officials believe they are legally bound to shield current workers from pension cuts, a Colorado victory could embolden them to be more aggressive.

Colorado pruned a 3.5 percent annual pension increase to 2 percent, concluding that was the fastest way to revive its pension fund, which was projected to run out of money by 2029. The cut may sound small, but it produces big results because it goes into effect immediately. State plans vary widely, but many have other costly features, like subsidized early-retirement benefits, which could likewise be trimmed for existing workers.

Despite its pension reform, Illinois is still in deep trouble. That vaunted $300 million in immediate savings? The state produced it by giving itself credit now for the much smaller checks it will send retirees many years in the future — people who must first be hired and then, for full benefits, work until age 67.

By recognizing those far-off savings right away, Illinois is letting itself put less money into its pension fund now, starting with $300 million this year.

That saves the state money, but it also weakens the pension fund, actually a family of funds, raising the risk of a collapse long before the real savings start to materialize.

“We’re within a few years of having some of the pension funds run out of money,” said R. Eden Martin, president of the Commercial Club of Chicago, a business group that has been warning of a “financial implosion” for several years. “Funding for the schools is going to be cut radically. Funding for Medicaid. As these things all mount up, there’s going to be a lot of outrage.”

BP CEO’s yacht outing infuriates Gulf residents

By Raphael Satter and Holbrook Mohr The Associated Press

EMPIRE, La. — BP Chief Executive Tony Hayward took a day off Saturday to see his 52foot yacht “Bob” compete in a glitzy race off England’s shore, a leisure trip that further infuriated residents of the oil-stained Gulf Coast.

While Hayward’s pricey ship whipped around the Isle of Wight on a good day for sailing — breezy and about 68 degrees — anger simmered on the steamy Gulf Coast, where crude has been washing in from the still-gushing spill.

“Man, that ain’t right. None of us can even go out fishing, and he’s at the yacht races,” said Bobby Pitre, 33, who runs a tattoo shop in the crossroads town of Larose, La. “I wish we could get a day off from the oil, too.”

BP spokespeople rushed to defend Hayward, who has drawn withering criticism as the public face of BP PLC’s halting efforts to stop the worst offshore oil spill in U.S. history.

Company spokesman Robert Wine said the break is the first for Hayward since the Deepwater Horizon rig BP was leasing

Chris Ison / The Associated Press

The sun rises Saturday before the 5 a.m. start of J.P. Morgan Asset Management Round the Island Race near Cowes, Isle of Wight, off the south coast of England. BP Chief Executive Tony Hayward’s yacht, “Bob,” is at left. Spokeswoman Sheila Williams said Hayward took time off his duties handling the environmental catastrophe in the Gulf of Mexico to see his boat participate. exploded April 20, killing 11 workers and setting off the undersea gusher.

“He’s spending a few hours with his family at a weekend. I’m sure that everyone would understand that,” Wine said.

“Bob” finished fourth in its group. It was not clear whether

Hayward actually took part in Saturday’s race or attended as a spectator.

The boat, made 10 years ago by the Annapolis, Md.-based boatbuilder Farr Yacht Design, lists for nearly $700,000.

Hayward had already angered many in the U.S. when he was

quoted in the Times of London as suggesting that Americans were particularly likely to file bogus claims for compensation from the spill. He later shocked Louisiana residents by telling them that no one wanted to resolve the crisis as badly as he did because “I’d like my life back.”

Oil-eating microbes a possible solution

By Fred Tasker McClatchy-Tribune News Service

MIAMI — One scientist compares them to the yellow chompers in the Pac-Man video game — hungry, single-minded little microbes fueled by the same fertilizer farmers use on soybeans, gobbling hydrocarbons from the oily waters, marshes and shores of the Gulf of Mexico.

Can the naturally occurring microbes help clean up the oil spill? Yes, experts say. At least in part, with some risk.

Officials are taking note. Florida Gov. Charlie Crist on Thursday visited a Sarasota company that sells microbes that eat oil.

BP says it’s open to using them.

And the federal government is contacting its preapproved list of more than a dozen companies to see how quickly they can ramp up production.

Scientists call the process bioremediation.

“You take natural oil-eat-

How the microbes work Naturally occurring microbes in the ocean feed on the hydrocarbons in oil. Scientists hope to speed up the process for the large spill in the Gulf of Mexico, where warm temperatures also aid the reaction.

Oxygen is needed for the chemical reaction, but can be sparse at great ocean depths

The microbes break apart the hydrocarbons and combine C02 them with oxygen to create water and carbon dioxide H20

Adding fertilizer increases the size and number of the microbes so they can eat more oil; too much, however, can cause algae blooms, which starve the ecosystem of light and oxygen

ing microbes in the water and give them fertilizer to make them multiply and degrade the oil faster. Oil is a natural product. It’s inherently biodegradable,” said Terry Hazen,

microbial ecologist in the Earth Sciences Division of the Lawrence Berkeley National Lab in California.

Still, scientists caution that bioremediation is only a partial

solution. It’s best used on sandy beaches and in salt marshes after the thickest oil has been removed by bulldozer and shovel.

It’s never been tried before in deep water or open ocean.

U.N. says Afghan insurgents are biggest killers of civilians

By Rod Nordland New York Times News Service

KABUL, Afghanistan — With an average of an assassination a day and a suicide bombing every second or third day, insurgents have greatly increased the level of violence in Afghanistan, and have become by far the biggest killers of civilians here, the United Nations said in a report released publicly on Saturday.

The report also confirms statistics from the NATO coalition, which claimed a continuing de-

crease in civilian deaths caused by the U.S. military and its allies. At the same time, it blames steppedup military operations for an overall increase in the violence.

Especially alarming were increases in suicide bombings and assassinations of government officials in a three-month period ending June 16, and a near-doubling of roadside bombings for the first four months of 2010 compared with the same period in 2009.

“The number of security incidents increased significantly, compared

to previous years and contrary to seasonal trends,” the report said, adding that most of this was a consequence of military operations in the southern part of the country, particularly Helmand and Kandahar provinces, where increased NATO military operations have been under way since February.

Most victims of the violence continue to be civilians, and the proportion of those killed by insurgents, rather than the government or NATO, rose to 70 percent from mid-March through mid-June.

In the previous three months, the U.N. blamed insurgents for 67 percent of civilian deaths.

The most striking change has been in suicide bombings, which have tripled this year compared with 2009, with such attacks now taking place an average of three times a week compared with once a week before.

“The shift to more complex suicide attacks demonstrates a growing capability of the local terrorist networks linked to al-Qaida,” the report said.

Italy perturbed; some mozzarella’s gone blue The Associated Press ROME — Italian police confiscated some 70,000 balls of mozzarella in Turin after consumers noticed the milky-white cheese quickly developed a bluish tint when the package was opened, authorities said Saturday.

Agriculture Minister Giancarlo Galan ordered ministry laboratories to investigate what he called a “disturbing” development.

State TV said a woman in Turin called police after noticing that the mozzarella, made in Germany for an Italian company, turned blue after contact with air, and that several merchants in Turin had received similar complaints.

Later in the day, another consumer, in Trento, a city 200 kilometers (125 miles) to the east in northern Italy, made a similar discovery, authorities said.

Samples were sent to laboratories that normally deal with anti-doping testing in sport to see if they could detect any foreign substances.

Results were expected in a few days.

No cases of illness were

immediately reported.

The mysterious blue mozzarella was the latest embarrassment for a food that is a point of pride for Italians and a staple in pizzas, panini and even the signature “caprese” salad in the red-white-and-green colors of the national flag — ripe tomatoes, creamy rich cheese and fragrant basil leaves.

Most prized of all the mozzarella is the kind made from buffalo milk.

But earlier this year, Italian agriculture authorities said some of the buffalo mozzarella, which comes from an area south of Rome, had fallen below standard after traces of cow’s milk were found in it.

Smoke rises from the intelligence services building Saturday in Yemen’s southern port city of Aden.

Four suspected al-Qaida gunmen blasted their way into the compound Saturday and freed several detainees in the group’s most spectacular operation since a U.S.-backed government crackdown began late last year.

The attack on the heavily protected security complex killed 11

“We were hit where we least expected it,” Yemeni Information Minister Hassan al-Lozy told the Al-Arabiya news channel. “This is a serious escalation from these terrorist elements.”

China Senate set to end ‘holds’ signals it will let currency fluctuate The Washington Post

Sen. Claire McCaskill said Saturday that she has enough votes to end the Senate’s long-standing and much-criticized practice of allowing the use of anonymous holds to block nominations.

McCaskill, D-Mo., said Sens.

Christopher Bond, R-Mo., and Sam Brownback, R-Kan., had agreed to support the effort, giv-

ing her the 67 votes necessary to change Senate rules. Supporters include nine Republicans, and only Sen. Robert Byrd, W.Va., is opposed on the Democratic side.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., “strongly supports Senator McCaskill’s efforts and will work with her to schedule a vote as quickly as possible,” said Reid spokesman Jim Manley.

New York Times News Service HONG KONG — China announced on Saturday evening that it would allow greater flexibility in the value of its currency, a move that could deflect growing international criticism of its fiscal policies and defuse one of the greatest sources of tension between Beijing and Washington.

The statement, by China’s central bank, was the clearest sign yet that the country would allow its currency to appreciate gradually against the dollar. World leaders are to meet next week in Canada for economic talks, and China’s currency policies appeared bound to be a source of conflict.

The United States has been leading a chorus of countries urging China to let its currency fluctuate. Many members of Congress have believed that China’s exchange rate policy gave it an unfair trade advantage, and a movement had been growing to take retaliatory trade action if China did not make an adjustment.

President Barack Obama and Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner immediately praised China’s action. “China’s decision to increase the flexibility of its exchange rate is a constructive step that can help safeguard the recovery and contribute to a more balanced global economy,” Obama said in a statement.

The People’s Bank of China was cautious in its statement about how far its currency, the renminbi, might fluctuate, warning explicitly that “the basis for large-scale appreciation of the RMB exchange rate does not exist.”

A 1,060-foot, twin-rib concrete bridge, set to open in November, will provide the first new viewing spot accessible by foot since the Hoover Dam was built.

A new panorama nearly ready at Hoover Dam

By Jennifer Steinhauer New York Times News Service

BOULDER CITY, Nev. — Generations of photo albums are filled with images of children squinting in front of the enormous canyon here, one of the greatest engineering feats in America’s history.

Now, an architectural epilogue to the Hoover Dam is nearly complete: a 1,060-foot, twin-rib concrete bridge floating majestically over the Colorado River. The bridge will provide the first new viewing spot accessible by foot since the dam was built over seven decades ago and, at long last, traffic relief for those who have to cross the dam.

“Like all great civil engineering achievements,” said Dave Zanetell, the director of the by-

pass project for the Federal Highway Administration, “everything about this job is first of its kind, the biggest of its kind and unique in terms of challenge.”

A bypass for the dam, which now must be traversed through a winding and often maddening journey along U.S. Highway 93, has been contemplated since the 1960s, said Zanetell, whose agency oversaw construction of the project.

Tourists who forgo parking and an official tour and instead opt for drive-by photography — at times hanging out their car windows so they can get the best shot — have always caused traffic snarls along the dam, which was crossed by 4.5 million vehicles last year.

Deficit Continued from A1 If nothing changes, Medicare, Medicaid and Social Security will explode in size, moving from 40 percent of federal spending today, to 52 percent in 2040, according to the Peter G. Peterson Foundation, a nonpartisan group that advocates for curbing federal deficits. Meanwhile, interest payments will take up another 30 percent of the budget.

That will leave precious little money for all other non-defense spending, which includes funding for roads, schools, scientific research, managing public lands and everything else. That would shrink from a third of federal spending to 7 percent.

Where there’s disagreement is on the impact that federal spending right now makes on our long-term financial health.

Getting worked up about things like stimulus spending and aid to states distracts from the real problems, said Josh Gordon, policy director at the nonpartisan Concord Coalition, which also calls for sustainable budgeting.

“In the short term, we are going to be faced with a higher deficit and that’s OK because that’s what happens in recessions,” Gordon said. “Cutting discretionary spending in the short term does very little to help the long-term fiscal challenge, and it doesn’t help the economy. The worst thing is it really polarizes partisanship and confuses the American public (about) what the battleground is.”

While the coming explosion of entitlement programs is by far the most important factor in our budget, DeHaven disagreed with the idea that short-term deficits don’t matter.

How Oregon lawmakers voted Lots of lawmakers talk tough about federal deficits, but how did they vote? Here’s where Oregon’s delegation stood on some of the bills that put the biggest holes in the government’s pocket.

2001 and 2003 tax cuts

Senator

• Combined, the tax cuts are estimated to have increased the federal deficit by about $1.8 trillion between 2001 and 2008, though there is disagreement about the impact. The costs are usually considered together, because the 2003 bill sped up some of the cuts included in the 2001 bill.

but didn’t take effect until 2006.

Cost estimates for the measure have fluctuated from as much as $552 billion over its first 10 years, to the most recent CBO estimate of $370 billion. Projecting future costs is even less certain, but CBO estimates the benefit will cost a total of $890 billion through 2019.

For Wyden, tightening the screws on big-ticket items is the start of taming the deficit.

He called the Wall Street bailout, which he voted against, “a game changer” on fiscal responsibility.

“That’s why, for example, when a Republican president wanted me to vote for the Wall Street bailout, I said no, and when a Democratic president wanted it, I said no as well,” Wyden said. “I didn’t think that a $700 billion bailout for the people who ran things into the ditch was the way to go.”

would be spending that money to bail out AIG and then to use it as a slush fund for whatever somebody in the administration thought it should be used,” he said.

Walden said Republicans would take on federal spending, from wasteful domestic programs to big entitlements, if they regain control of the House.

“Under a Speaker (John) Boehner (R-Ohio), all spending will be under the microscope,” Walden said. That doesn’t exclude “how you reform and how you scale back the cost and scope of benefits, including how you deal with entitlement programs going forward.”

As the Cato Institute’s DeHaven pointed out, though, that’s a promise that is seldom kept.

“There are very, very few people in Washington willing to take these issues seriously,” DeHaven said. “Nobody relishes the idea of going out to a campaign rally and saying, ‘if you elect me, I’m going to get rid of this program and get rid of that program.’”

Walden agreed that while constituents want the budget under control, few volunteer to give up their piece of the pie.

“Nobody has ever walked through my door and advocated for a cut to their budget,” he said.

sion that would recommend ways to balance the budget.

Then lawmakers would have to vote yes or no on the recommendations, without the usual amendment process or other political tricks.

But when just such a commission came up for a vote in January, the bill fell seven votes short of the 60 it needed.

Wyden said that vote was a critical sign that lawmakers weren’t ready to tighten the federal purse strings.

“Congress has got to stop kicking away opportunities to enforce fiscal discipline,” Wyden said. “That is why the (commission) vote was such a missed opportunity, because that would have forced every U.S. senator to go on the record about how they felt about major expenditures.”

The president created his own budget commission, but without congressional approval, there’s no guarantee that lawmakers will vote on its recommendations.

So how have Oregon lawmakers voted when given the chance to run up the government credit card? With the exception of Rep. Peter DeFazio, D-Springfield, who voted against nearly every huge, unfunded bill over the past decade, their records are mixed.

The budget situation took a sharp turn for the worse in 2003, Gordon says. That year, Congress passed a second round of tax cuts, approved spending for the Iraq war and created a new Medicare prescription benefit, all on the government credit card.

“I think at the time we said it was the most fiscally irresponsible Congress in history,” Gordon said. “We just borrowed and borrowed and borrowed to fund two large tax cuts, fund a war and create a large new entitlement.”

The Medicare Part D drug benefit is a good litmus test for a lawmaker’s fiscal responsibility, Gordon said. Medicare’s looming funding crisis was wellknown in 2003, but that didn’t stop politicians from spending $370 billion on prescription drugs for seniors, without a way to pay for it.

Wyden and Walden voted for the bill. Last week, both said the program is still worth the cost.

On Friday, Wyden said he would have preferred the benefit had been funded, but his first priority was providing prescription drug coverage for seniors.

“You had a tremendous number of seniors who could not afford drugs on an outpatient basis, so they would get sicker and need more medicine and very often (a) very acute level of services,” Wyden said.

Walden agreed.

“If you were designing a senior health plan today, I can’t imagine designing a health care plan for seniors that did not include coverage for prescription medication,” Walden said.

“We needed to address this as a country.”

In a lengthy Senate floor speech on Nov. 23, just before the final vote, Wyden didn’t mention any concerns about how the bill was paid for. Rather, he argued that Congress should approve the billions in new spending while it was still politically viable.

“As a member of the Budget Committee, I know how hard it has been to get funding for this benefit,” Wyden said, according to the Government Printing Office transcript of his speech. “When Senator (Olympia) Snowe and I began in 1999 to work for funding for a drug benefit, the Senate thought we lassoed the moon when we successfully got $40 billion in the budget. How then can you argue that Congress should walk away from $400 billion?”

In a Sept. 24 speech in the U.S. House, Walden accurately described the bill as cheaper than a Democratic alternative and emphasized the benefits for low-income seniors.

“But the crazy thing to me tonight is to hear that somehow we are not going to help seniors with this bill,” Walden said. “We are spending $400 billion over 10 years to provide a prescription drug benefit and additional help to our hospitals and our physicians in our rural communities, $400 billion.”

Both Wyden and Walden argued that they’ve supported other steps to get health spending in check. Walden pointed to the 2005 Deficit Reduction Act, which cut about $100 billion from Medicaid over 10 years, as an example. He also noted that the original Medicare drug bill included a circuit breaker requiring lawmakers to make adjustments to the program if costs were higher than expected, but that Democrats waived the provision.

Wyden, meanwhile, said he advocated for allowing the federal government to bargain with drug manufacturers, which would have cut the Medicare Part D price tag. And his health care reform bill, the Healthy Americans Act, was praised by economists as one of the few proposals that would have cut U.S. health care spending over the long term.

BAGHDAD — A protest over electricity shortages in oil-rich southern Iraq turned deadly when police opened fire to disperse the crowd on Saturday, killing one protester in a melee that warned of growing anger over the government’s failure to provide basic services.

More than 3,000 protesters marched through Basra. They carried banners and chanted angry slogans demanding a solution to power cuts.

The demonstration turned violent when protesters started throwing stones and advanced on the Basra provincial council building.

Have Old Hearing Aids?

Debt

Debt settlement has swollen to some 2,000 firms, from a niche of perhaps a dozen companies a decade ago, according to trade associations and the Federal Trade Commission, which is completing new rules aimed at curbing abuses within the industry.

Last year, within the industry’s two leading trade associations — the U.S. Organizations for Bankruptcy Alternatives and the Association of Settlement Companies — some 250 companies collectively had more than 425,000 customers, who had enrolled roughly $11.7 billion in credit card balances in their programs.

As the industry has grown, so have allegations of unfair practices. Since 2004, at least 21 states have brought at least 128 enforcement actions against debt relief companies, according to the National Association of Attorneys General. Consumer complaints received by states more than doubled between 2007 and 2009, according to comments filed with the Federal Trade Commission.

“The industry’s not legitimate,” said Norman Googel, assistant attorney general in West Virginia, which has sued debt settlement companies. “They’re targeting a group of people who are already drowning in debt. We’re talking about middle-class and lowermiddle-class people who had incomes, but they were using credit cards to survive.”

The industry counters that a few rogue operators have unfairly tarnished the reputations of wellintentioned debt settlement companies that provide a crucial service: liberating Americans from impossible credit card burdens.

With the unemployment rate near double digits and 6.7 million people out of work for six months or longer, many have relied on credit cards. By the middle of last year, 6.5 percent of all accounts were at least 30 days past due, up from less than 4 percent in 2005, according to Moody’s Economy .com.

Yet a 2005 alteration spurred by the financial industry made it harder for Americans to discharge credit card debts through bankruptcy, generating demand for alternatives like debt settlement.

The industry casts itself as victim of a smear campaign orchestrated by the giant banks that dominate the credit card trade and aim to hang on to the spoils: interest rates of 20 percent or more and exorbitant late fees.

“We’re the little guys in this,” said John Ansbach, chief lobbyist for the United States Organizations for Bankruptcy Alternatives, better known as USOBA. “We exist to advocate for consumers. Two and a half billion dollars of unsecured debt has been settled by this industry, so how can you take the position that it has no value?”

But consumer watchdogs and state authorities argue that debt settlement companies generally fail to deliver.

In the typical arrangement, the companies direct consum-

In the Ear. In an Instant.

Incredibly Discreet.

John Van Beekum / New York Times News Service

The recession has delivered an abundance of debt-laden customers to debt settlement companies, which now have their own trade shows. Mandy Eden, right, of M Eden Consulting, listens to Jennifer Stewart, left, with Global Client Solutions, and Sandee Ferman, with Debt Manager Software, describe their products during a conference of the United States Organizations for Bankruptcy Alternatives this month in Palm Beach, Fla. ers to set up special accounts and stock them with monthly deposits while skipping their credit card payments. Once balances reach sufficient size, negotiators strike lump-sum settlements with credit card companies that can cut debts in half. The programs generally last two to three years.

standards barring that practice.

Some companies marketed their programs as if they had the imprimatur of the federal government, with one advertising itself as a “national debt relief stimulus plan.” Several claimed that 85 to 100 percent of their customers completed their programs.

The pitch

The coming crackdown

Linda Robertson knew nothing about the industry she was about to encounter when she picked up the phone at her Missouri home in February 2009 in response to a radio ad.

What she knew was that she could no longer manage even the monthly payments on her roughly $23,000 in credit card debt.

So much had unraveled so quickly.

Before the recession, Robertson had been living in Phoenix, earning as much as $8,000 a month as a real estate appraiser. In 2005, she paid $185,000 for a three-bedroom house with a swimming pool and a yard dotted with hibiscus.

When the real estate business collapsed, she gave up her house to foreclosure and moved in with her son. She got a job as a waitress, earning enough to hang on to her car. She tapped credit cards to pay for gasoline and groceries.

By late 2007, she and her son could no longer afford his apartment. She moved home to Kansas City, where an aunt offered a room. She took a job on the night shift at a factory that makes plastic lids for packaged potato chips, earning $11.15 an hour.

Still, her credit card balances swelled.

The radio ad offered the services of a company based in Dallas with a soothing name: Financial Freedom of America. It cast itself as an antidote to the breakdown of middle-class life.

When Robertson called, a customer service representative laid out a plan. Every month, Robertson would send $427.93 into a new account. Three years later, she would be debt-free. The representative told her the company would take $100 a month as an administrative fee, she recalled.

His tone was assertive.

Robertson made nine payments, according to Financial Freedom. Late last year, a sheriff’s deputy arrived at her door with court papers: One of her creditors, Capital One, had filed suit to collect roughly $5,000.

Panicked, she called Financial Freedom to seek guidance. “They said, ‘Oh, we don’t have any control over that, and you don’t have enough money in your account for us to settle with them,’” she recalled.

Her account held only $1,470, the representative explained, although she had by then deposited more than $3,700. Financial Freedom had taken the rest for its administrative fees, the company confirmed. Robertson demanded her money back.

She also filed a report with the Better Business Bureau in Dallas, adding to a stack of more than 100 consumer complaints lodged against the company. The bureau gives the company a failing grade of F. Robertson received $1,470 back through the closure of her account, and then $1,120 — half the fees that Financial Freedom collected. Her pending bankruptcy has cost her $1,500 in legal fees.

“I trusted them,” she said. “They sounded like they were going to help me out. It’s a rip-off.”

In April, the U.S. Government Accountability Office released a report drawing on undercover agents who posed as prospective customers at 20 debt settlement companies. According to the report, 17 of the 20 firms advised clients to stop paying their credit card bills despite industry

“The vast majority of companies provided fraudulent and deceptive information,” said Gregory Kutz, managing director of forensic audits and special investigations at the GAO in testimony before the Senate Commerce Committee during an April hearing.

At the same hearing, Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., pressed Ansbach, the USOBA lobbyist, to explain why his organization refused to disclose its membership.

“The leadership in our trade

group candidly was concerned that publishing a list of members ended up being a subpoena list,” Ansbach said.

“Probably a genuine concern,” McCaskill replied.

On multiple fronts, state and federal authorities are now taking aim at the industry.

The Federal Trade Commission has proposed banning upfront fees, bringing vociferous lobbying from industry groups. The commission is expected to issue new rules this summer.

McCaskill has joined with Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., to sponsor a bill that would cap fees charged by debt settlement companies at 5 percent of the savings recouped by their customers. Legislation in several states, including New York, California and Illinois, would also cap fees. A new consumer protection agency created as part of the financial regulatory reform bill in Congress could further constrain the industry.

Continued from A1 The debt settlement industry can afford some extravagance.

The long recession has delivered an abundance of customers — debt-saturated Americans, suffering lost jobs and income, sliding toward bankruptcy. The settlement companies typically harvest fees reaching 15 to 20 percent of the credit card balances carried by their customers, and they tend to collect upfront, regardless of whether a customer’s debt is actually reduced.

State attorneys general from New York to California and consumer watchdogs like the Better Business Bureau say the industry’s proceeds come at the direct expense of financially troubled Americans who are being fleeced of their last dollars with dubious promises. Consumers rarely emerge from debt settlement programs with their credit card balances eliminated, these critics say, and many wind up worse off, with severely damaged credit, ceaseless threats from collection agents and lawsuits from creditors.

In the Kansas City area, Linda Robertson, 58, rues the day she bought the pitch from a debt settlement company advertising on the radio, promising to spare her from bankruptcy and eliminate her debts. She wound up sending nearly $4,000 into a special account established under the company’s guidance before a credit card company sued her, prompting her to drop out of the program. By then, her account had only $1,470 remaining: The debt settlement company had collected the rest in fees. She is now filing for bankruptcy.

“They take advantage of vulnerable people,” she said. “When you’re desperate and you’re trying to get out of debt, they take advantage of you.”

A6 Sunday, June 20, 2010 • THE BULLETIN

OLCC Continued from A1 Among other things, the audit found that: • OLCC management focused almost exclusively on enforcement and paid little attention to licensing.

• Without drawing the notice of upper-level managers, the OLCC’s Portland office built up a backlog of 415 license applications from would-be sellers and manufacturers of alcoholic beverages, compared with field offices that had no backlog.

• New license applications took an average of 200 days to process in Portland, compared with 65 days in the Bend field office, 24 days in Medford, 17 days in Eugene and 10 days in Salem.

One application in Portland remained pending 18 months after being filed.

• License investigation quality checks had become diluted to the point of uselessness.

• The OLCC’s main licensing manager had stopped assigning cases to investigators in Portland or monitoring them, instead allowing them to “self-manage.”

• OLCC management blamed the backlog on huge increases in license applications, but between 2005 and 2008 the number increased only 7 percent.

Asked about the audit, OLCC Director Steve Pharo stressed that he asked for the review, adding that OLCC management is working on improving the agency’s efficiency.

“I think it’s fair to say we’re always in flux, looking for ways to make things better,” he said.

But he said the audit’s findings are overstated, and its wording is “over the top.”

To do the audit, the agency contracted with Julie Ratcliff, a former OLCC employee who’d become an internal government auditor for the Oregon Department of Transportation.

Government auditors undergo specialized training and look at programs to find potential improvements.

Anyone who wishes to make, sell or distribute alcoholic beverages must get a license from the OLCC. In Portland, license applications are investigated for accuracy and appropriateness by full-time license investigators, while in regional offices they are reviewed by field inspectors who enforce liquor laws.

Seeking the cause of the backlog and delays, Ratcliff found that agency administration was overly focused on enforcement — with licensing scarcely discussed in management meetings and conference calls. Meanwhile, in the agency’s licensing arm, the audit found that existing management controls, such as a list of license applications that had been lagging, “were disregarded or ineffective.”

Employees went into more detail in interviews, according to the auditor’s investigative file obtained under Oregon Public Records law. One employee told

OLCC promises and action Continued from Page A1

SEPTEMBER 2009 Proposed change: Create an independent ad hoc group working outside of the enforcement division to respond to licensees’ questions and concerns.

Actual response: Group not created. Agency executives say the plan remains in “the formative stage.”

DECEMBER 2009 Proposed change: Create an FAQ page on the OLCC website on or before February 16, 2010, for licensees considering changes to their premises which might affect their license.

Actual response: FAQ page added to site but no questions/answers about premises changes were present until Thursday, after agency executives were interviewed by The Bulletin. Agency executives say the error was due to an internal miscommunication.

Proposed change: Hold some of the 2010 commission meetings outside the Portland metro area “to hear firsthand from local licensees and field offices to better understand regionally specific issues.”

Actual response: Six of this year’s 13 planned meetings have been held in Portland and the seventh, set for next month, also is scheduled to be held in Portland. OLCC Executive Director Steve Pharo said budget constraints have prevented the agency from holding meetings elsewhere.

— Cindy Powers and Nick Budnick, The Bulletin the internal auditor that she used to issue reports every six months that tracked license applications that had been pending for 90 days; but she changed it to an annual report due to “lack of response.” She said some regional managers did not respond to the reports, and one, in Portland, did not even open them.

Employees also complained of inconsistent licensing standards, a failure to oversee regional offices and a lack of training. They said the agency had for years failed to conduct employee performance appraisals that would allow discipline and eventual termination of poor employees, as well as rewards for good ones.

The agency’s licensing manager, Dan McNeal, told the auditor he no longer tried to assign specific applications to investigators.

“Dan explained that they used

“According to (OLCC licensing manager) Dan (McNeal), the investigators did not like having someone give them assignments or have them report weekly to. I stated that it sounded like they didn’t want to be managed and successfully got out of it.”

— Julie Ratcliff, summarizing a conversation she had while auditing the OLCC

to do this but stopped a year ago because there was a near revolt with the investigators. According to Dan, the investigators did not like having someone give them assignments or have them report weekly to,” Ratcliff wrote in her summary of their conversation. “I stated that it sounded like they didn’t want to be managed and successfully got out of it.”

Licensing technician Dan Croy found fault with poor management, lack of training and incompetence. He said he’d relayed the problems to three previous auditors and had also told OLCC Director Steve Pharo about the situation, “without any results,” according to the auditor’s records.

The problems discovered by the June 2009 internal audit are not new. In March 2007, a Secretary of State auditor issued a report recommending the agency improve management controls in its licensing arm.

Asked to explain the delay in addressing the situation, Pharo said he sought the internal audit in order to get impartial, specific recommendations, and to sort between internal “perceptions” as to what was wrong in the agency’s licensing.

He and other top OLCC executives, however, said that lack of funding was largely to blame as opposed to audit findings that they called overstated.

Agency officials say that in response to the audit, they have hired a new licensing director and reorganized management to pay more attention to licensing. Pharo said the agency has reached an agreement with the employees’ union to reinstitute performance appraisals. And he expressed hope that a new computer tracking system would improve efficiency.

Linda Ignowski, OLCC’s regulatory services director, who had overseen licensing, blamed workload for the auditor’s findings of a large backlog.

“We all are busy here, and we all assume people are doing their job and doing what they are supposed to be doing,” she said.

She said the problem was “just because of the sheer volume of the people we have (applying for licenses).”

Documents show that the state funded the equivalent of 243 full-time OLCC employees some 20 years ago. The number dropped to a low of 202 in 2003, and steadily increased in subsequent budgets to the current level of 232 full-time-equivalent positions.

Agency officials say their

workload has steadily increased along with Oregon’s population.

As the number of clubs, wineries and other licensees has gone up, so has the number of enforcement actions and regulations, agency officials say.

The auditor, however, questioned the agency’s claims that the licensing backlog in Portland was due to a vastly increased workload. A document submitted to the Legislature in late 2008 to justify a budget increase and more licensing staff, for instance, cited a “continuous increase in the number of licenses issued in the last seven years.”

But looking at the agency’s numbers in more detail, the auditor found that the number of new licenses processed by licensing investigators, after jumping in 2005, actually decreased between 2006 and 2008. She found that OLCC officials were padding agency workload numbers in their public statements by including a new license required for wine direct shippers. That was actually a one-time increase in 2008 that was handled by nonlicensing personnel and thus did not add to the licensing backlog.

The audit called the agency’s claims of a workload increase “misleading.”

Another 86 people are missing, and more than 10 million people have been affected since torrential rains began June 13, including those who have been injured, stranded or have suffered property losses, the Ministry of Water Resources said in a news release.

While the death toll was up from 90 on Saturday, the number of evacuees was lower than the previous day’s figure of 1.4 million.

China sustains major flooding annually along the mighty Yangtze and other major rivers, but this year’s floods have been especially heavy, spreading across nine provinces and regions in the south and along the eastern coast.

Thousands of houses have been destroyed, and econom-

ic losses have topped 14 billion yuan, the ministry said.

More thunderstorms over the area were forecast from this afternoon late into Monday, according to the official meteorological bureau.

State broadcaster CCTV aired images of rescues performed by boat, truck and helicopter.

Waters have surged passed safe levels in dozens of rivers, including the Pearl River in the heart of China’s industrial powerhouse of Guangdong. The strong storms have collapsed reservoirs, overflowed rivers, caused landslides and power outages, and damaged highways.

The flooding follows the worst drought in a century for the southern provinces and regions of Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi. It left millions without drinking water and destroyed more than 12 million acres of crops.

Turkish jets raid Iraq; clashes kill 23

By Suzan Fraser The Associated Press

ANKARA, Turkey — Turkish warplanes launched air raids at suspected Kurdish rebel positions in northern Iraq Saturday after a rebel attack on a military outpost in Turkey touched off clashes in which nine soldiers and 12 rebel fighters died, Turkey’s military and reports said.

Two other soldiers were killed in a land mine explosion while chasing the rebels, the state-run Anatolia new agency reported, raising the overall death toll in Saturday’s violence to 23.

Special forces were immediately sent to reinforce the border area where the clashes occurred and Turkish warplanes bombed detected Kurdish rebel positions in northern Iraq the military said, without providing any further details.

At least 14 other soldiers were wounded in the fighting.

Kurdish rebels have dramatically stepped up attacks in Turkey in recent months, threatening a government attempt to end one of the world’s longest guerrilla wars. The military said Friday more than 40 soldiers had been killed since March — including six who died in a rocket attack on a vehicle near a naval base in southern Turkey — and warned it anticipated more attacks.

Turkey’s military has responded by sending warplanes

across the border for raids on suspected rebel bases while elite commandos crossed the border in pursuit of the rebels in a daylong incursion earlier this week.

The rebels belonging to the Kurdistan Workers’ Party, or PKK, have used northern Iraq as a springboard to stage hitand-run attacks on Turkish targets in their decades-long campaign for autonomy in Turkey’s Kurdish-dominated southeast. The Turkish military says around 4,000 rebels are based just across the border in Iraq and that about 2,500 operate inside Turkey.

The group declared it was increasing attacks on June 1, a day after imprisoned Kurdish rebel chief Abdullah Ocalan said in a statement relayed by his lawyers that his calls for dialogue with Turkey had been ignored and that he was giving his consent to the rebel command in northern Iraq to determine which course of action to take.

The military said Saturday’s attack occurred at 2 a.m. (2300 GMT Friday) on an outpost near the town of Semdinli — a mountainous region where the borders of Turkey, Iraq and Iran meet. The military said eight soldiers were killed, but the Anatolia later reported that one missing soldier was found dead, raising the number of troops killed in the attack to nine.

Before you accept a deed from the buyer, you should research the current state of the title to determine whether or not the buyer has allowed any encumbrances to be placed against the property since it was purchased from you because any encumbrances against the property will remain after you receive the deed. If there are significant encumbrances against the property, they should be removed before you accept a deed. It may be necessary to foreclose the trust deed to remove the encumbrances. For a nominal fee, any local title company can provide you with a report showing the current state of title to the property. I suggest you retain an attorney to review the report and prepare the appropriate deed.

Reaction Continued from A1 Several local legislators, licensees and others who have worked with the agency reviewed the audit this week, and generally reacted with chagrin.

“I really think at this point, this is an agency that needs to be disbanded, and it needs to be completely restructured,” said Bend City Councilor Jodie Barram, who took up the cause last year of local licensees claiming agents from the OLCC Bend office were overzealous and engaged in retaliatory enforcement practices.

Their complaints centered on the area’s now-jailed regional manager recently outed by State Department officials as a Bulgarian national suspected of stealing the identity of a child murdered 28 years ago. The man once known as Jason Evers was promoted after a 2006 independent investigator’s report questioned his honesty in two investigations in which he sanctioned Bend licensees.

He was transferred from the region earlier this year after a 2009 Oregon Department of Justice investigation found he encouraged an atmosphere of heavy-handedness and inconsistent enforcement practices.

“As shocking as this audit is, I am not terribly surprised because when you look back at the 2006 (investigator’s) report and the DOJ report in 2009, it is clear this agency promotes inefficiency and there is no consistency, apparently with both enforcement and licensing,” Barram said.

The audit showed the OLCC chain of command had licensing employees reporting to supervisors in different sections of the agency, thwarting consistency and interoffice communication. It further said that regulatory meetings within the agency “emphasized enforcement and discussed few licensing topics.”

Rep. Judy Stiegler, D-Bend, said blending the functions of separate divisions within a government agency is an unwise practice.

“I don’t think there is a clear delineation of functions within the OLCC, and I think that is a primary problem,” Stiegler said. “Rather than having three distinct units with a specific chain of command, it looked to me like there was a lot of bleeding over between areas.”

That, she said, appears to have led to bigger problems.

“It would be my sense from reading all of this is that it contributed to one of the biggest issues, which was inconsistency across the state,” Stiegler said.

Sen. Chris Telfer, R-Bend, said the audit showed the OLCC has “an awful lot of middle management who appear to be bumping into each other and could be doing other things.”

Telfer, a certified public accountant, said the agency does not appear to have revenue concerns and added the audit suggests “too many hands touch the paperwork.”

She noted the agency’s Portland office recently had a backlog of 415 licensing applications, a problem that directly affects Oregon’s economy.

“Those are businesses that need to operate to put people to work,” she said. “So, those are 415 businesses that effectively can’t operate, and, in this economy, there is no excuse for that.”

Two local business owners who went through the OLCC licensing

Play Continued from A1 The excavation and construction company Knife River Corp. donated use of the construction vehicles, and the event took place at its yard on O.B. Riley Road in Tumalo. General Manager Chris Doan said the company brought a range of vehicles to the site for the event: a concrete mixer, a scraper used mostly to excavate soil, bulldozers, water wagons, asphalt paving machines, a dump truck and a snowblower, to name a few.

Another family at the event was Chris and Carey Kraybill, with their 2-year-old twins, Emily and Robert. The family has participated in the Together for Children program, and Chris Kraybill has served as a board member for the organization.

“It’s been a great opportunity, just for gaining more parenting resources for early childhood,” Carey Kraybill said. Both parents agreed the program was also a good way to meet and share experiences with other parents.

“I think just spending time with the kids is the best Father’s Day,” Chris said.

Linda Gilpin, the program manager at Together for Children, said the organization currently offers groups in Bend and Sisters. It normally offers groups

process in recent years said the experience was confusing, frustrating and, for one, lengthy.

Noel McMichael bought into his brother’s Bend restaurant — The Blacksmith Restaurant and Bar in Bend — along with a third business partner in 2006. He turned over extensive financial information that included both personal and business documentation.

“They wanted bank statements, copies of old scanned checks, but when I offered them the last three years of my federal tax return, they said, ‘No, we need to see more,’” he said.

When he conferred with his business partner, McMichael found the OLCC had asked them for different information.

“It just seemed like there was really no consistency in the rules,” he said. “And when you are an enforcement agency, this kind of fast and loose practice is going to cause you problems.”

Bend tavern owner Corey Weathers has been through the licensing practice twice — in 2001 when he purchased Corey’s Bar & Grill on Bond Street in Bend and again in 2005 when he bought into The Tumble Inn in Redmond.

Both times the investigative process took about three months, he said.

“And that was absolutely not a reasonable amount of time the secondary round because we were already licensees, and if we’d done anything bad, they’d know about it,” he said. “And I totally understand why they’re doing what they’re doing, because they will tell you they want to make sure you’re not laundering money, and I get that. But the second time, it held us up from taking over the business.”

That is a common problem for liquor license applicants, said Bend lawyer Bill Buchanan. Buchanan has represented clients going through the licensing process as well as those who face sanctions by the OLCC and said the recently disclosed audit came as no surprise to him.

“It underscored what I already knew, which is that delays in processing applications are common, and that they’re devastating to the licensee,” he said.

He said that is because businesses must be essentially ready to open their doors before they can apply for a liquor license.

“So your investment is already made into the facility before you know whether the OLCC will give you a license,” Buchanan said.

“It’s a little bit like when you buy property to construct a home, but, at least with a home, you apply for your building permit before you build your house.

“In the case of the OLCC, it would be like applying for your building permit after the home has been completed and, if you don’t comply, you have to tear it down and start over.”

Rep. Stiegler said, given the licensing delays and complaints about enforcement problems, that it may be time for the OLCC to undergo a “complete and total review, from top to bottom.”

She added that separating the agency’s two main functions may ultimately be necessary.

“We need to look at both the regulatory and licensing aspect, because I think it makes for a somewhat schizophrenic agency when they are trying to perform all these functions,” Stiegler said.

in Redmond as well, but the feebased program did not draw enough parents this year.

The program includes a parent and child playgroup and parent education. In addition, Together for Children offers a father-child group and a babies group, both of which are in Bend.

The Oregon Legislature started Together for Children in 1988, but its state funding was later eliminated, according to Gilpin and a brochure from the organization. Its initial goal was to prevent child abuse, and that remains an important focus today, Gilpin said. One of the topics covered is alternative discipline methods, so parents can avoid spanking and other similar punishments.

“This provides that support when times are tough,” Gilpin said. “This first three years are most important to (children). ...

The goal is to have healthy families, healthy relationships, and to have ongoing support.”

Currently, the program’s revenue comes from fees, grants and fundraising.

Information about the program, along with the fee schedule, is available at www.togetherfor-children.org.

Myanmar’s Suu Kyi turns 65 in confinement The Associated Press YANGON, Myanmar — Myanmar democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi marked her 65th birthday Saturday locked in her dilapidated lakeside compound as calls for her freedom erupted around the world.

President Barack Obama and U.N. Secretary-General Ban Kimoon demanded Suu Kyi’s release in statements echoed at rallies and prayer vigils. Supporters threw a birthday party at the suburban Yangon home of a fellow opposition member. It was attended by more than 300 people but not the guest of honor.

Holding candles and yellow roses, they lit a birthday cake with 65 candles and released 65 doves into the sky while chanting, “Long Live Daw Aung San Suu Kyi.” Plainclothes security watched and videotaped the event.

Suu Kyi has now spent 15 birthdays in detention over the past 20 years, mostly under house arrest. She is the world’s only imprisoned Nobel Peace laureate.

Lai Seng Sin / The Associated Press

A Myanmar refugee holds a candle Saturday during an event in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to celebrate the 65th birthday of Myanmar democracy icon Aung San Suu Kyi. “It is very sad that she cannot celebrate her birthday in freedom,” said her lawyer Nyan Win. Confined to her home, Suu Kyi planned to celebrate by providing a lunch of chicken curry and

an Indian-style flat bread for the three dozen construction workers helping to renovate her crumbling two-story mansion, Nyan Win said.

The tight security surrounding Suu Kyi’s home allowed the

delivery of a birthday cake and a bouquet of roses, orchids and lilies sent by political supporters. Members of her National League for Democracy party are planting 20,000 trees around the country, mostly on the grounds of Buddhist monasteries, to mark the occasion.

A confidante, Win Tin, made an impassioned plea for Suu Kyi’s release.

“To the international community I want to reiterate her words: ‘Please use your liberty to promote ours,’” said Win Tin, who co-founded the party with Suu Kyi and himself spent nearly 20 years jailed as a political prisoner.

Global condemnation over her imprisonment has failed to change the junta’s harsh attacks on all dissent or soften their stance on Suu Kyi, whose steely grace, charisma and popularity have remained in tact despite her long confinement.

Ahead of historic elections planned for later this year, Suu Kyi remains the biggest threat to the ruling junta.

Airport Day draws crowd Event lets the public learn more about aviation and Bend Airport

By Scott Hammers • The Bulletin

W

hen Carl Hollinger’s kids moved out of the house and he found he had a little extra money, he decided to buy himself

a plane. Before he even knew how to fly.

Tian Bledsoe, 21 months, of Boise, takes a turn at the controls of Sonny Kline’s 1946 Ercoupe during Airport Day at the Bend Airport on Saturday.

“I am one of those ones, who owned a plane before they had a pilot’s license,” Hollinger, 46, from Prineville, said with a laugh. “There’s lots of us.”

Pilots, non-pilots and aspiring pilots like Hollinger were among the hundreds who visited the Bend Airport on Saturday for Airport Day, an opportunity for the general public to check out a wide variety of aircraft up close, and learn more about aviation and the airport.

Aircraft on display included the biplane featured in “Raiders of the Lost Ark,” a 1937 DC-3 that flew in World War II and later as an Eastern Airlines passenger plane, and the “Couch Balloon,” the heavily modified lawn chair flown by Bend gas station owner Ken Couch with the aid of more than 100 large helium balloons.

Sonny Kline, 72, of Bend, said he’s come out to Airport Day every year for several years. Demonstrating the slideup windows that protect the cockpit of his 1946 Ercoupe from the elements, Kline said less-than-ideal weather was the most likely explanation for the limited number of planes on display — in past years, three to four planes just like his have shown up.

Weather aside, Kline said the event gets better every year. The addition of an inflatable play area, face-painting booth and other kid-friendly activities this year was a big plus, he said.

“Kids can only get so excited about airplanes. They’ll look at them for a few minutes, and then they’re bored,” he said. “So it’s good for parents to have that distraction.”

Marbles tournament takes a modern twist

By Lillian Mongeau

Players watch as Brad Slate, 40, right, shoots his marble toward the center of the circle on Saturday at the Des Chutes Historical Museum’s first marbles tournament.

Watching, from left, are Tripp Riker, 6, David Talbot, 76, and Leila Slate, 6, all of Bend.

“Marbles is wonderful!” Leila Slate, a 6-year-old, said after completing her first game of marbles ever on Saturday.

Leila, who was on a team with her dad, Brad Slate, 40, was among the couple dozen competitors in one of the first official marble tournaments to be held in Bend in years. The Des Chutes Historical Museum hosted the tournament after learning about a similar event held here in 1923 by the Central Oregon Press, a local newspaper, according to Kelly Canon-Miller, the director of the museum. The first prize at that event was a bicycle and on Saturday, a brand-new bicycle, donated by Sunnyside Sports, waited once again for a pintsized winner to ride it home.

Playing marbles used to be a standard part of recess for David Talbot, 76, who is on the board of directors for the Deschutes County Historical Society. He registered to play on Team Dinosaur Rumble with his grandson, Tripp Riker, 6. Talbot grew up playing marbles in Grants Pass.

“We’d play on the dirt,” he said.

“We’d bring a little bag of marbles to school and play at recess every day. It was something all the guys did.”

Talbot said there were a number of variations on how to play marbles, but the standard game involves drawing a large circle, inside which each player would place a few of his marbles. Next,

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Congress wrangled over short-term solutions to some long-term dilemmas in the federal budget this week, but failed to find any answers. The U.S. Senate took up a measure to extend a handful of tax cuts and temporarily reverse a cut in Medicare payments to doctors. It’s the third time this year that lawmakers have taken up a temporary fix to the payment problem, rather than attempt to fix the underlying law that triggered the cuts.

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

U.S. House • ENCOURAGING LENDING TO SMALL BUSINESSES Passed 241-182 on Tuesday.

The bill would create a $30 billion fund that community banks could use to lend to small businesses. It is funded by ending some tax exemptions, including one that exempts some trusts from estate taxes. The bill now goes to the U.S. Senate, where its prospects are uncertain.

Rep. Greg Walden, R ......................................................................... No Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D .................................................................. Yes Rep. Peter DeFazio, D ...................................................................... Yes Rep. Kurt Schrader, D ...................................................................... Yes Rep. David Wu, D ............................................................................. Yes

U.S. Senate • ENDING TAX BREAKS FOR OIL COMPANIES Failed 35-61 on Tuesday.

The bill would have ended $35 billion worth of tax incentives for oil companies. With the savings, $25 billion would have gone toward deficit reduction and $10 billion to invest in energy efficiency. The measure needed 60 votes to pass.

Sen. Jeff Merkley, D ......................................................................... Yes Sen. Ron Wyden, D .......................................................................... Yes • EXTENDING TAX BREAKS, UNEMPLOYMENT BENEFITS AND HEALTH CARE SUBSIDIES TO STATES Failed 45-52 on Wednesday, in a procedural vote.

The measure needed 60 votes to move forward. The bill would have extended expiring unemployment benefits through November, temporarily reversed a more than 20 percent cut in Medicare payments to doctors and included $24 billion to pay for a larger piece of states’ costs under the Medicaid program for low-income families. It also would have created $80 billion in federal debt.

Sen. Jeff Merkley, D ......................................................................... Yes Sen. Ron Wyden, D .......................................................................... Yes — Keith Chu, The Bulletin

Talbot explained, the boys would determine who got to go first by each tossing a marble from one line, called a “taw line,” to another, called a “lag line.” The boy who landed his marble closest to the lag line got to go first.

After that, play went around the circle, with each player flicking his “shooter,” a slightly larger marble, into the circle and trying to knock other marbles out of the circle. Any marbles knocked out were “keepsies” for the player

with the lucky shot. When all the marbles were out of the circle, the player with the most new marbles was the winner. And if you lost all your marbles, Talbot said, you had to bug your parents for 10 cents to buy another dozen.

“We (girls) weren’t allowed to play,” Binnie Kanne, 73, Leila’s grandmother, said as she watched her granddaughter shoot a blue marble toward the middle of the circle on Saturday.

Kanne, who was visiting this weekend from Chicago, said she remembered marbles being one of the most popular boys’ games of her childhood.

2 cited near Sunriver in reckless shooting Two men who were target shooting along the Deschutes River near Sunriver were cited on suspicion of reckless endangering on Saturday.

At around 1 p.m., canoeists called 911, reporting gunfire and apparent bullets landing in the river ahead of them. Deschutes County Sheriff’s deputies were sent to the area, and eventually

located the shooters, James Patrick Butts, 44, and Jason Allan Schraeder, 39, who admitted to shooting near the river.

ATV rider cited on suspicion of DUII A man who crashed his ATV in Terrebonne earlier this month was cited on suspicion of DUII and reckless driving on Friday, according to the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office.

On June 1, Travis J. Edwards, 35, of Terrebonne, was riding his ATV southbound on 19th Street when he failed to negotiate a left-hand curve. The ATV went onto the gravel shoulder and traveled approximately 150 feet before striking a mediumsized juniper tree.

Edwards, who was not wearing a helmet, was thrown from the ATV and later taken by helicopter to St. Charles Bend with serious injuries.

O Police say man confessed Oregon Dunes riders Friend: Stepmother in stabbing death of girl fear cuts in trail area of missing boy to The Associated Press GRANTS PASS — A Southern Oregon man told police he “went psycho” when he stabbed his 17-year-old girlfriend of three weeks more than 30 times, according to court records.

Nathaniel Lee Geith, 25, of Grants Pass, has been arraigned on a murder charge in the death of Savanna Albertson. He is being held in the Josephine County jail pending a bail hearing.

An affidavit filed with the court said Geith told officers that Albertson came at him with a knife. After he took it away from

her, he allegedly stabbed her 33 times and bit her face. Geith told police he “overreacted,” “snapped” and “went psycho.”

He was covered in blood when he was arrested in a neighbor’s yard late Wednesday.

Geith’s aunt, Marie Brendon, of Wolf Creek, told the Grants Pass Daily Courier that Geith moved to New York after graduating from Glendale High School in 2003. He returned to the area three years ago.

She said Geith started taking methamphetamine, and things went downhill.

O B Mining cave collapse kills E. Oregon man HUNTINGTON — An Eastern Oregon man died Saturday when the walls of a mining cave collapsed on him.

Senior Trooper Tracy Howard of the Oregon State Police says 42-year-old Jose Aguiar Jr. was digging inside a small cave along the Burnt River in Baker County when the rock and dirt wall gave way.

Two men and a boy with Aguiar were not hurt.

Howard says Aguiar was about 20 feet from the cave’s entrance, and the men spent several minutes digging him out.

Unable to call 911 from the site, they placed him in a van and drove 30 miles to Holy Rosary Medical Center in Ontario.

He was pronounced dead in the emergency room.

State troopers from the Baker City and Ontario offices are completing the investigation.

Gang link suspected in Portland shooting PORTLAND — Police identified a man killed in north Portland late Friday as 40-year-old Shawn Decoal Crawford.

An autopsy performed Saturday determined that Crawford died from a gunshot.

No arrests have been made in the shooting, which police linked to gang violence.

Man caught with fake money ROSEBURG — Police arrested a man accused of using a counterfeit $20 bill at a Roseburg gas station.

The authorities say 22-yearold Tyler Cox, of Glide, had more fake bills in his possession when an officer stopped him Thursday.

He was lodged at the Douglas County jail on forgery charges.

Roseburg police Sgt. Aaron Dunbar says officers have seen a recent uptick in the number of forged bills. He says the majority of bills that police recover are of low quality. He says the problem is the significant amount of fakes that go undetected.

No charges against fired S. Oregon teacher MEDFORD — A Southern Oregon teacher accused of inappropriately touching a kindergarten girl won’t face criminal charges, but he might lose his teacher’s license.

George Peter Kuhn was removed from the classroom in the Phoenix-Talent School District in May 2009 after the girl claimed he put his hand inside her underwear. The school board fired Kuhn in September.

Police interviewed the girl twice to gather evidence for a criminal prosecution, but the Jackson County District Attorney’s Office says it chose not to charge Kuhn because of inconsistencies in the girl’s account.

The state agency that licenses teachers continues to investigate the complaint and will decide whether to revoke Kuhn’s license.

2 escape injury in copter’s hard landing HILLSBORO — A Hillsboro Fire Department spokesman says two men escaped injury Friday night when their small helicopter made a hard landing a quarter mile south of the Hillsboro Airport.

Responding firefighters found a Robinson R22 on its side.

Spokesman Storm Smith says the 29-year-old pilot said he was losing power as he approached the airport and tried to make an emergency landing in a field. The helicopter hit hard and flipped onto its left side. Both he and his 45-year-old passenger were unharmed.

Hillsboro is just west of Portland.

Washington woman dies of crash injuries ST. HELENS — Oregon State Police say a Lynnwood, Wash., woman has died of injuries she suffered in a head-on collision between a car and a tractor-trailer rig on state Highway 30.

Lt. Gregg Hastings said Friday that 44-year-old Julie Lynn DeAngelo was airlifted from Thursday’s crash to Legacy Emanuel Medical Center in Portland, where she later died.

State police say a car driven by DeAngelo crossed the center line and collided with a Freightliner truck pulling two empty tanker trailers. The truck was driven by 46-year-old Robert Baldwin, of Milwaukie, who was not injured.

The accident occurred near St. Helens, northwest of Portland.

FLORENCE — For 16 years, off-highway-vehicle users in the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area have enjoyed something of a free pass, at least where it concerns a spiderweb of de facto trails in certain stretches of the 60-milelong expanse of sand between Florence and Coos Bay. No longer. The U.S. Forest Service is finally getting around to outlining the areas of the dunes that were supposed to be off-limits in accordance with a 1994 management plan.

But, because riders have grown accustomed to cruising these routes unmolested, the crackdown feels like a takeaway to some of the riders.

“We keep losing and losing,” said Scott Ryland, a member of the Northwest Sand Deuces and a Florence off-road enthusiast. “We have an exploding sport that brings a lot of tourist money to the coast — we’re talking millions of dollars annually that OHVers spend — and we’re trying to protect what little bit we’ve got left.”

Ryland sits on the 15-person group that’s tasked with making recommendations to the Forest Service about how best to implement the 1994 plan — a group that’s fully aware that areas of the dunes were supposed to be off-limits to the vehicles.

Slow to act But Ryland and others acknowledge that the government’s slow implementation has everything to do with the way things are today.

The Forest Service split up the dunes into several different zones in 1994. Area “10c,” which makes up about 15 percent of the dunes’ 24,000 acres, permits OHV riding but only on designated trails.

“A big chunk” Official estimates aren’t available, but Ryland guesses OHV users will lose access to about 20 percent of the routes they now use.

“It’s a big chunk,” he said. “A lot of it is in the north dunes, up around the Florence area.

There’s a moderate amount between Hauser and North Bend.

Winchester Bay is probably the least impacted.”

It’s a frustration for OHV users and the businesses that rely on their tourism dollars, Ryland said, but as fellow committee member Adele Dawson puts it, “this is long in coming.”

OHV use affects sensitive riparian areas and wildlife, and the noise carries well beyond designated areas, Dawson said.

“The whole town of Florence is heavily affected by the noise,” she said.

“The Forest Service has just been remiss in enforcing this.

The riders don’t see it that way, but it’s the reality of the situation.”

take 2nd polygraph The Associated Press PORTLAND — The stepmother of missing Oregon boy Kyron Horman was scheduled to take a second polygraph test Saturday, a friend of the woman told The Oregonian newspaper.

Jaymie Finster, who has known Terri Horman since junior high, said Horman already took one polygraph test and is scheduled for a second.

She said Horman is “not very happy about it.”

She said Horman is “tired and frustrated with the intensity of the questioning she’s been getting,” and that Horman and her husband, Kaine Horman, are both exhausted as the investigation continues into a third week.

The Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office declined to confirm the friend’s claim and won’t say who has or has not been given a lie-detector test.

Kyron Horman, a 7-year-old Portland boy, vanished June 4. The stepmother has figured prominently in the investigation because authorities say she was the last known per-

son to see him alive. Investigators, however, have not called her a suspect or a person of interest.

On Friday, the sheriff’s office put photos of Horman, and the type of pickup she was driving the day Kyron disappeared, on fliers seeking information about the missing child.

Investigators said Horman, 40, told them she last saw Kyron at 8:45 a.m. June 4 as he walked to his classroom after the two had toured the Skyline School science fair. Kyron was later marked absent.

Finster told The Oregonian that Horman alerted Kyron’s teacher the day before that she was taking the boy to the doctor on Friday, June 11. Finster said that when Kyron didn’t show up at the bus the afternoon of June 4, Horman talked to the teacher who said she thought that Horman had taken Kyron to the doctor that day.

Police ID woman found dead with pets WEST LINN — Police have identified a 57-year-old woman found dead in a trash- and fecesstrewn West Linn rental home and have counted about 70 pets who shared it with her.

Police who found the body of Marcia Diane Gredvig on Thursday while checking her welfare at her landlord’s request also found 10 dogs and a cat dead. A dozen more animals were rushed to an emergency vet clinic.

Sgt. Neil Hennelly says police don’t know how the woman died but do not suspect foul play. An autopsy is planned.

Firefighters donned hazmat suits to enter the house and remove the animals. The creatures included 22 birds, two bearded dragon lizards, three iguanas and two leopard geckos.

The Oregon Humane Society took 30 animals to its facility, and the rest have been placed in foster care.

Coos County raises $2.5M in timber sale COOS BAY — A sale of county-owned timber has added $2.5 million to Coos County’s general fund.

The World newspaper of Coos Bay reports that timber companies bid on four of five advertised lots.

The unclaimed lot will stay on sale for another month. If sold, it would likely lift timber revenue to $3 million in the coastal county.

County commissioners said this winter they were prepared to go a second consecutive year without a sale if timber prices did not improve. But prices increased following the earthquake in Chile and a shortage of white woods used for making plywood.

Coos County Forester Bob Laport says prices started falling again by the time the sale rolled around.

He predicts prices will keep dropping this the summer, and he opposes additional sales for now.

— From wire reports

Part of what’s tricky about trying to fix the problem is that there’s widespread agreement that some of the trails in use now are appropriate, even if they haven’t been designated.

They’re natural ingress and egress points to open riding areas, or they afford critical access for emergency vehicles.

That’s why it’s hard to figure out just how much space OHV users stand to lose. At this point, Ryland said, they’re already restricted to about 40 percent of the recreational area’s total acreage. Because some trails will be reopened, and others will be converted to open riding area, a different classification, there’s no way of knowing until the end of the lengthy process how exactly things might change on the coast.

Summer camp in 1985 Adult children keep eye on aging parents caters to senior citizens

By Claudia Feldman Houston Chronicle

100 YEARS AGO For the week ending June 19, 1910 NEW CAMP GOES IN NEAR TOWN A railroad camp has been installed within a mile of town by the contracting firm of Bryan & Youngstrom, who have 4½ miles of work from Bend northward.

The new camp is directly beside the Prineville road opposite the Ellis bridge across the Pilot Butte canal. Permanent board stables, bunk houses and cook shacks are being erected, as well as many tents.

Dump cars and other construction paraphernalia already are on hand, and every effort is being made to get all available men on the grade. In addition to the work along the main right-ofway from this camp, construction will be carried on upon the side tracks, etc., at Bend.

The Bryan & Youngstrom contract adjoins that of Chew & Silke on the north. Beyond it, in turn, is a two-mile stretch let to Rossi & Adams, who have a camp some five miles north of town, just west of the Redmond road.

Already, all the right-of-way under this contract has been cleared, more than a quarter of a mile of work track is laid, upon which dump cars are being operated. Mr. Adams says that 35 men are now on the way from Shaniko.

With a force of 50 men, this work will be completed by Thanksgiving, he says.

Chew & Silke are operating all along their 12-mile stretch southward from Bend.

OPERATION RESTORES REED’S SIGHT Irvin Reed, son of J.E. Reed, who lost his sight in a premature explosion on Arnold ditch work more than four years ago, has had his sight restored by a successful operation just completed in a Seattle hospital. Word has been received by his friends here that he now has full use of his eyes. He has been absent for three months and will return in a week or 10 days.

75 YEARS AGO For the week ending June 19, 1935 MIRROR POND CROP RUNS ABOUT 75 TONS TO ACRE “About 75 tons to the acre.”

Such was the estimate of the Mirror Pond underwater weed harvest made today by Frank Smith, who, aided by several CCC boys, is now engaged in the difficult task of cutting the aquatic plants from their moorings with long-handled scythes.

Yesterday afternoon, one of the boys tumbled into the river but got out without any great difficulty.

The Mirror Pond harvest crew is working from a special boom, anchored across the river. Reports indicate that the long scythes are doing effective work.

KIRTSIS POOL WILL BE REOPENED ON SATURDAY The Kirtsis swimming tank, repaired and extensively renovated during the past two weeks, will be opened to the public Saturday, according to present plans, under new management, with operation planned through

Y E S T E R D AY the summer and into the fall as long as weather permits. A.C. Porter has leased the tank for the season, and Mr. and Mrs. Roy Friend will be in charge. Heated water is to be used in the big pool, the largest outdoor tank in Oregon, this season.

Porter announces he is to install a number of amusement devices, such as slides. State health regulations are to be strictly complied with.

Note to Readers: The Kirtsis Tank, as it was known, was the largest outdoor swimming pool in the state, located just downstream from Pioneer Park, near where the Bend Riverside Motel is now. The 50-by-150-foot steel tank held 330,000 gallons of water. The water came directly from the Deschutes River, was heated by a burner that utilized sawdust from Bend sawmills and then returned to the river.

The swimming tank was part of the Bend Auto Court complex built in 1927 by the three Kirtsis brothers, immigrants from Greece who homesteaded east of Bend. It was open to the public and auto court guests. Daily fee was 10¢.

50 YEARS AGO For the week ending June 19, 1960 DO DUCKS BLACKEN THE SKY? The writing on the front of the brochure says “Resort Townsite For Sale.”

Inside it says “this is the kind of vacationland that everyone dreams about and which the entire family can enjoy — a retreat from freeway congestion, smog, heat, and too many people.”

Where is it?

“Located in the hub of yeararound recreational area of Central Oregon at Camp Abbot. The major improvements remain.”

The brochure, which came from Los Angeles, says there are approximately 5,100 acres, 14 miles of Deschutes River frontage, 100 miles of improved road frontage, a beautiful lodge and thousands of excellent building sites. All utilities, including sewer system, are available.

There are recreational opportunities at Camp Abbot, the brochure says.

Among them: “Fishing — The Deschutes River is well-known for the finest and largest game fish in America. It offers enormous German Brown (up to 36 inches — a delicious fish.”

“Hunting — the mule deer, prized by hunters, roam this ranch in herds. A large variety of elk inhabit the area. The ranch is plentiful in small game, including antelope, quail and pheasant. During the height of the duck season, the ducks have been known to blacken the sky overhead.”

“Summer sports — Sailing, surfboarding, swimming and horseback riding are popular. There are also 200 nearby mountain lakes to increase these activities.

The brochure is put out by land developers in Los Angeles who have taken a lease on the Hudspeth ranch at Camp Abbot.

They seek to sell the ranch for a resort town. The brochure claims 8,000 lots could be sold at one-third lot per acre for about $5,000 apiece.

Potential buyers reside mostly in other states, but we’re sure

that Central Oregon residents, if they get their hands on the brochure, will be first in line.

There’s no doubt that the recreational pursuits in this area are outstanding. But we didn’t realize that they were quite that good.

Note to Readers: The area described in this brochure of 50 years ago is now called Sunriver.

25 YEARS AGO For the week ending June 19, 1985 SENIORS GO TO CAMP, JUST LIKE KIDS Al Feight has never shot a bow and arrow before, and his hand pulls back the drawstring with uncertainty.

“I have trouble letting loose right,” Feight says as his face wrinkles with concentration. He lets the arrow fly.

“Where did that go?” he asks as the arrow skitters through the bushes to the right of the target area.

He picks up another arrow and tries again, laughing and enjoying himself.

Pia Foley, a 21-year-old camp counselor, steps forward and shows Feight how to place his hands on the bow and draw back the arrow.

The instruction helps, and Feight’s shots gradually fall closer to the large bull’s-eye 30 feet or so in front of him. He’s not discouraged; he’s having so much fun, he says, he’ll probably return to the camp next year, if not this fall.

“I’ve been trying out a lot of things I’ve always wanted to try,” says Feight, a 72-year-old Portland resident. “I never got around to bow and arrow.”

Earlier in the day, he enjoyed a horseback ride through the woods.

Welcome to Camp Tamarack, a collection of 15 weathered cabins clustered around Dark Lake, a tiny placid body of water 15 miles west of Sisters.

In early June and mid-October, the 50-year-old camp — built and used primarily for girls 8 to 16 years old — sponsors senior adult camps.

This June’s session drew 35 campers, ages 65 to 86.

Although the senior camp caters to the senior market, the activities are about the same as those offered at a typical Scout camp. Seniors keep busy with tennis, archery, horseshoes, canoeing or swimming.

There are also arts and crafts sessions, nature walks and field trips to the Lava River Caves, the headwaters of the Metolius River and Cache Mountain.

At night, the campers listened to Floating Eagle Feather, a native of Honduras and professional storyteller who told stories from around the world.

“When they’re at camp, they do everything the kids do,” says Gale Orford, part owner and director of Camp Tamarack.

“We don’t water down the program at all. The seniors have KP just like our kids do.”

And the campers say the food is excellent. They don’t look forward to going home and having to cook instead of just listening to the dinner bell and dashing to the dining room.

Professionals try to spot fraud victims

By Tony Pugh McClatchy-Tribune News Service

WASHINGTON — State regulators, social service workers and several medical organizations are teaming up to help health care providers identify and protect older patients who are vulnerable to financial abuse and scams.

“Our goal is to improve the communication among medical professionals, older Americans, (their) adult children and state securities regulators in order to head off financial swindles before the damage is done,” said Don Blandin, president of the Investor Protection Trust, one of the groups behind the new campaign.

The effort to curb the financial exploitation of seniors was an-

nounced Tuesday on World Elder Abuse Awareness Day. It comes as a new survey by the trust shows that one in five Americans over age 65 — more than 7.3 million people — reported being victimized in a financial swindle at some point in their life.

In fact, the survey of more than 2,000 adults found that half of older Americans were ripe for potential financial victimization.

For example, of 590 respondents age 65 and older, 37 percent reported being solicited by phone for money, while 16 percent said they weren’t confident making big financial decisions by themselves.

Elder financial abuse can assume many forms, including telemarketing or mail fraud, contracting and repair scams, or bad

advice from financial services professionals such as insurance salesmen and accountants. It can also include identity theft, abuse of guardianship or even Medicare fraud.

The “Elder Investment Fraud and Financial Exploitation” project will train medical professionals across the country to identify patients with mild cognitive impairments who are most susceptible to financial scams. The goal is to have caregivers inform state regulators about patients who pose the greatest risk for abuse.

Elder financial scams are believed to be the third most common form of elder abuse, behind neglect and emotional abuse, according to the National Council on Aging.

Her name is (fill in the blank).

She’s lived alone ever since her husband died.

Her adult children watch her anxiously, hoping that her last years will be happy ones.

But when she exhibits signs of confusion (or breaks her hip or has a stroke), her children panic. They don’t know what to do.

“We cross our fingers, and our parents do, too,” says social worker Nancy Wilson, a faculty member at Baylor College of Medicine. “It’s as if we’re in a conspiracy together that the worst-case scenario is not going to happen.”

Instead of that pact of silence, Wilson, Dr. George Taffet and Anita Woods, all staff at Baylor’s Huffington Center on Aging, encourage families to talk openly about potential problems and likely solutions.

They also tick off some warning signs, indications that the older adults may need more help than they’re getting.

For example, says Wilson, “Maybe your mom used to be very social, but she doesn’t go out anymore. Or she used to manage the finances, but she doesn’t now. When you go to visit, you see stacks of unpaid bills. Or she sent four cards in a row to mark the same event.

Those could be signs of change in cognition.”

There are physical signs of deterioration, too.

Maybe your dad is falling.

Or making regular trips to the

“Are they getting lost, particularly in familiar environments?

Are they having medication issues? Do you notice that one prescription hasn’t been filled for three months or that the pills are all mixed up?”

— Dr. George Taffet, Huffington Center on Aging, Baylor College of Medicine

emergency room because of car accidents. Or struggling with incontinence.

Wilson said her own mom wound up in the hospital because she bought a new car, then got so suspicious of the deal she had just agreed upon, she returned to the dealership and made a scene.

“Her suspicions were out of bounds, not normal consumer concerns,” Wilson says.

After her mother was tested and found to have early dementia, Wilson and her mom sat down together and made a plan. The older woman moved into a community that allowed her some independence, but also provided her with help and support.

“It’s important not to react too quickly,” Wilson says. “We were looking for a place that would gradually provide more care. I

didn’t want her to have to move again.”

Taffet, associate professor and chief of the section of geriatrics in Baylor’s department of medicine, mentioned other signs that might indicate trouble: “Are they getting lost, particularly in familiar environments? Are they having medication issues? Do you notice that one prescription hasn’t been filled for three months or that the pills are all mixed up?

Sometimes someone will say, ‘I took a handful this morning.’”

Woods, the Huffington Center’s director of education and training, says signs of trouble for some clients can be as basic as remembering to shower and brush their teeth. Are their buttons fastened correctly? Are they dressed in a way that is normal for them?

Check the refrigerator, the psychologist suggests. If it’s empty or the food is rotten, that’s trouble.

Woods says her mom became susceptible to scams.

“She was sending money to a lot of places she didn’t need to be sending money to.”

The goal, Woods says, is to honor a person’s dignity and self-esteem, and help the senior walk the line between independence and safety.

“The idea is to plan ahead of the crisis. I do think Americans get a bum rap about dumping older relatives. In my 30-plus years in this field, I’ve seen families go to the ends of their emotional and financial resources to do the right thing.”

New York Times News Service PARIS — Gen. Marcel Bigeard, one of France’s most decorated veterans, who led troops in the French Resistance in World War II and in wars in Algeria and Indochina, died Friday in Toul, France, where he lived. He was 94. His death was confirmed by his wife, Gabrielle Grandemange.

Bigeard, who was wounded in battle five times and escaped from prisoner of war camps three times, achieved legendary status in France.

Nicknamed “the Heroic Bigeard” by Charles de Gaulle, he participated in battles against the Nazis and against rebels in the French colonies of Indochina and Algeria.

“He has been called the best paratrooper in the world,” Martin Windrow, a British military historian, told The Associated Press.

With fingers crossed for luck and a “shooter marble” in her other hand, Leila Slate, 6, of Bend, watches as her dad shoots a marble toward the center of the circle during the Des Chutes Historical Museum’s marbles tournament on Saturday.

Continued from B1 She said no one in particular told her not to play. “It was just that girls played jacks, and boys played marbles.”

Evelyn Brown, 85, who had come downtown to watch the fun, concurred. “We weren’t allowed,” she said. “We didn’t even think of it.”

Both women said they were glad girls were now welcome to play and happy to think the game might make a comeback.

“I didn’t even realize it was old-fashioned,” Kanne said.

“I don’t think (marbles) faded until all these electric games came, and I think TV had something to do with it.

There’s a lot of good things on television,” she added, “but I think it would be wonderful if some of the old games came back.”

After playing a round, Talbot

said the rules for Saturday’s tournament were much as he remembered them, even though who went first was determined by age rather than a lag line competition. And the games weren’t played on the dirt, but on mats made out of industrial carpeting, laid out in the museum’s parking lot.

Both Leila and Tripp said they would play the game again as soon as they had the chance.

Leila said she would play with her dad, who she thought had been a good teammate. And Tripp said he would play with his friends, even if he had to teach them the rules. Tripp said he played video games with his friends, too. So, which did he like better?

“Marbles,” Tripp said. His grandpa clasped Tripp’s shoulder then and grinned.

Hollinger’s plans are about to be put on hold. A member of the Oregon Army National Guard, he’s due to be deployed to Iraq in September, but is already looking forward to getting back to work on his plane and up in the air once he returns.

“Flying is always a joy. I don’t know if it’s an adrenaline rush or being able to see things you can’t see from the ground,” he said. “When you’re up in the air, you’re in a three-dimensional world. When you’re on the ground, you’re kind of in a two-dimensional world.”

Continued from B1 Mike Ardanaz, 53, in Bend from Southern California to visit his sister, said he’d found the older planes to be the most interesting ones on display.

“I don’t know much about planes — my buddy who knows about planes is on the way — I just like looking at old things,” he said. “Seeing the craftsmanship we don’t really see anymore.”

For Hollinger, craftsmanship is the first order of business in realizing his childhood dream of taking to the skies. The second-hand kit plane he bought still needs a lot of work to be made airworthy, and he’s been squeezing in flight lessons toward earning his pilot’s license

French hero of 3 wars, Gen. Marcel Bigeard, 94

Airport

Bill Dixon, the maverick trumpeter, composer, educator and major force in the jazz avant-garde movement of the 1960s, died Wednesday at his home in North Bennington, Vt. He was 84. His death was announced by Scott Menhinick, a representative of his estate. No cause was given.

In the early 1960s, when rock was swallowing popular culture and jazz clubs were taking few chances on the “new thing” — as the developing avant-garde was then known — Dixon, who was known for the deep and almost liquid texture of his sound, fought to raise the profile of free improvisation and put more control into musicians’ hands. In 1964, he organized “The October Revolution in Jazz,” four days of music and discussions at the Cellar Cafe on West 91st Street in Manhattan, with a cast that included the pianistcomposers Sun Ra and Cecil Taylor, among others. It was the first free jazz festival and the model for present-day musician-run events, including the Vision Festival.

Soon after that, he established the Jazz Composers Guild, a cooperative organization intended to create bargaining power with club owners and build greater media visibility.

William Robert Dixon was born in Nantucket, Mass., on Oct. 5, 1925. His family moved to Harlem when he was about 7; he first aspired to be a visual artist and studied commercial art in high school. (He continued to paint throughout his

541-322-CARE

life.) In 1944, he enlisted in the Army, eventually serving in Germany during the last few months of war in Europe.

After his return, he attended the Hartnett Conservatory in Manhattan and then started performing around town.

On records such as “Intents and Purposes” (1967) and the two-volume “Vade Mecum,” recorded in 1993, Dixon displayed a fascination with whispered notes and the lowest, darkest ends of a band’s sound.

In Loving Memory of SSgt Stephen J. Wilson USMC Feb. 25, 1979 - June 20, 2007 It has been three years since our family’s tragic loss.

It broke our hearts to lose you, but, you did not go alone.

For part of us went with you the day God called you home.

Now all we have are memories and your picture in a frame.

Though we cannot see you You are always at our side.

In each gentle breeze that blows and every star that shines.

In each warm raindrop that falls and each beautiful flower that blooms.

Our family chain is broken And nothing seems the same But as God calls us one by one The chain will link again.

Forever in our hearts, Mom, Scott, Jenna, Dad, Jennivine, James, April, Aidan, Dylan, Brady and Rylan

“They’re getting a chance to read, they’re getting a chance to get free programming. A lot of these are latchkey kids,” she said. “We have kids who look out their windows and as soon as they see the teacher pull up with the books, they’re out there.”

Cycling with wolves

By John Gottberg Anderson • For The Bulletin KETCHUM, Idaho — A solo mountain bike ride down the 19-mile Harriman Trail, ending not far from this Sun Valley resort town, seemed like a wolf country.

I didn’t see the carnivores, but I could imagine their eyes peering at me through stands of aspen and lodgepole pine.

NORTHWEST TR AVE L In 2 weeks: Sumpter and the Elkhorn Loop

Normally, this wouldn’t have bothered me. I know that wolves are highly unlikely to attack humans, preferring to pursue deer and livestock. But the rapid growth of the wolf population in Idaho in general, and in this region in particular, is impressive.

Bare skin everywhere is hard for reader to bear

New TV dramas kick off the week

By Chuck Barney

“Futurama” 10 p.m. Thursday, Comedy Central Hoist a can of Slurm and toast the return of “Futurama.” Matt Groening’s animated sci-fi comedy, once given the ax by Fox, is back by popular demand with the first of 12 all-new episodes.

Contra Costa Times

Dear Abby: Over the last year I have noticed cleavage everywhere. It’s in the middle and high schools, the teller waiting on me at the bank, the cashier at the supermarket and department stores — all offering plunging frontal views. I can’t believe management allows this, and for the younger women, I can’t believe their parents permit it.

These females look like they’re dressed for a romantic evening, not as employees of reputable businesses or students.

Am I just getting old, or has this become acceptable? I would like to stop doing business with these companies, but if I do I’ll have no place to shop. What’s your opinion?

— Can’t Believe My Eyes, Ulster Park, N.Y. Dear Can’t Believe My Eyes: Are you just noticing this? It has been happening for years. And I’m not referring only to the amount of cleavage women are showing.

Haven’t you noticed how much that’s showing “south of the border” on females and males?

Many businesses have dress codes — and if enough customers complain or take their business elsewhere, managers might adhere to them. As to the students — most schools have dress codes, but whether the rules are enforced is another matter entirely.

Dear Abby: My husband, “Herb,” and I are middle-aged and have been married four years.

Herb is a wonderful husband, and we are very happy. I cook, and he usually cleans up — including washing several dishes and cooking utensils by hand. (He doesn’t like to use the dishwasher.)

Abby, this sweet man doesn’t get the dishes clean! I’m talking about lipstick on glasses, oil on pans and food left on plates. He doesn’t use soap or hot water, either. I rewash everything the next morning after he leaves for work. I’m afraid to say anything because I’m happy Herb makes

DEAR ABBY the effort, and I don’t want to ruin the nice gesture. Should I keep this up, or tell him my concerns and ask him to try harder?

— In Love With the Dishwasher, Austin, Texas Dear In Love: Your sweet husband may have poor eyesight — so start pointing out what he’s missing on the dishes. Then explain that, in the interest of hygiene, you would be more comfortable if, instead of just rinsing the dishes, he would place them in the dishwasher so you can be sure they are sterile the next time you use them.

P.S. Because you are having to wash the dishes twice, you may find that by using the dishwasher you will be using less water!

Dear Abby: Do you think it’s appropriate to laugh when someone inadvertently falls — especially if it’s unclear whether the individual is hurt?

I have never found it amusing to see someone fall. Instead, I feel concern. Some of my friends think that laughing is not only the appropriate response, but “necessary” to help ease the embarrassment of the individual who has fallen. Who’s right?

— Compassionate Witness in Seattle Dear Compassionate: You are.

And watch out for those “friends” because they either lack maturity or empathy — or both.

To Fathers Everywhere — Birth Fathers, Stepfathers, Foster Fathers and Those Caring Men Who Fill the Role of Absent Fathers: A Happy Father’s Day to all of you!

“Leverage” 9 tonight, TNT As this fun and lively badguys-do-good drama series opens its third season, Nate Ford (Timothy Hutton) finds himself in prison after having to make a tough choice on his latest con: He could either allow his entire team to be arrested or surrender to his nemesis, Sterling, a former insurance investigator now working for Interpol. But even behind bars, Nate finds rampant corruption. And the only way he can take down the crooked officials is to get the team to help stage his jailbreak. Gina Bellman also stars.

“Scoundrels” 9 tonight, ABC “Scoundrels” is an offbeat new drama that has Virginia Madsen playing the matriarch of a family of small-time crooks. But when her husband (David James Elliott) gets thrown in the slammer, she decides it’s time to become respectable, law-abiding citizens. Good luck with that.

“The Gates” 10 tonight, ABC In “The Gates,” a police chief (Frank Grillo) moves his family into an idyllic private community teeming with friendly neighbors and manicured beauty. Oh, but TV has taught us to know better: Not everything is as perfect as it seems.

“The Real L Word” 10 tonight, Showtime First came “The L Word.”

Now get ready for “The Real L Word,” a reality series that follows six lesbians at work and play in sunny Los Angeles. Included in the group are a TV executive, a real estate broker and a gallery owner.

“Flashpoint” 9 p.m. Friday, CBS It’s another tricky situation for the SRU team on “Flashpoint.”

When a woman kidnaps her two children to keep her husband from getting custody, they come to the rescue by deploying a risky roadblock.

Frank Grillo stars as a police chief who has moved his family into a seemingly perfect neighborhood in “The Gates.”

“Saving Grace,” 9 and 10 p.m. Monday, TNT The edgy crime series “Saving Grace” calls it quits tonight with back-to-back episodes. The first has our Oklahoma City cop (Holly Hunter) isolating herself from family and friends in the aftermath of a tragic event. Maybe these final chapters will bring this tortured soul some peace at last.

“Memphis Beat” 10 p.m. Tuesday, TNT Jason Lee (“My Name Is Earl”) returns to prime time in the new crime drama “Memphis Beat.”

He plays a blues-loving police detective who oozes Southern charm. But his casual approach to the job irritates his boss (Alfre Woodard).

“Downfall” 9:01 p.m. Tuesday, ABC Will viewers be high on “Downfall”? It’s a new game show that has contestants answering questions atop a 10-story building. Their goal? Keep a conveyor belt full of prizes from dumping the loot off the side of the building.

ALDEN

Weekly Arts & Entertainment

Alden is a 10 month old Border collie and Aussie mix in search of his forever home. This poor little guy came to the shelter as a stray and was sadly never reclaimed by an owner. Since Alden is still quite a young boy, he would be an exceptional candidate for crate training and a few basic obedience classes. Herding breeds are often very high energy and need a lot of regular stimulation and exercise.

C OV ER S T ORY

C4 Sunday, June 20, 2010 • THE BULLETIN

Sun Valley Continued from C1 Conservationists reintroduced a few gray wolves to Idaho in 1995 near Stanley, 60 miles north of Ketchum at the heart of the craggy Sawtooth Range. Since then, the controversial animals have proliferated throughout the state. The Idaho Department of Fish and Game now reckons the statewide count between 500 and 700 wolves.

In 2008, the last year for which official estimates are available, the Sawtooth area alone had 14 separate packs with more than 100 wolves. And I was rolling through the heart of the Sawtooth National Recreation Area, the home turf of the Phantom Hill pack.

“My husband, Randy, has seen wolves in this very meadow,” said Aris Flood, as she drove me to Galena Lodge, where I would begin my ride, in the pink shuttle van she calls the Mountain Fairy. “In fact, he saw one standing by the side of the road right — here!”

As if that were not bad enough, there was enough wolf scat lying on the well-maintained Harriman Trail to fill a good-sized garbage sack.

And then I saw a bloody deer leg.

Combining a pub with a bicycle repair shop, The Power House in Hailey is unique in the region. “People used to always bring sixpacks into the bike shop anyway,” said owner Billy Olson.

Waves of Newport

Two-wheeling I had come to Sun Valley to explore the bicycling opportunities in Idaho’s world-famous resort region. As an avid skier, I enjoy winter trips to this year-round playground in central Idaho, but I rarely treat myself to summer visits.

I found a remarkable network of bicycle trails, ranging from 32 miles of gentle paved routes to 435 miles of continuous single track, that extend through the region’s towns, along its rivers and through its neighboring mountains. “Bicycle friendly” doesn’t begin to describe the culture.

There are new pedal-free “pump parks” (more about these later) in both Ketchum and Hailey, 12 miles south. There’s a wilderness lodge dedicated to nothing but mountain-biking instruction during three summer months. Bike racks are everywhere, and Hailey even boasts a bar and grill with a built-in bicycle repair shop. Sales, rentals and information are available from more than a half dozen sportinggoods stores, most of which also market ski equipment in winter.

“We are an endurance rider’s paradise,” said Greg Martin, president of the Wood River Bike Coalition. “I have lived here since 1997, and there are still trails that I’ve not ridden to this day.

I’ve never seen a trail network as vast as what we have here.”

Many of my Central Oregon friends would have taken their own bicycles — two or three apiece, I dare say — to ride the trails of the Sun Valley region.

I left mine home and threw my fate into the hands of the experts at The Elephant’s Perch, who could rent me a different bike for a different road each day of my visit.

The staff at The Elephant’s Perch describe themselves as “people-powered sports specialists.” Technicians Nappy Neaman and Mike Payne made sure I was properly paired with bikes that suited my needs and ability before they sent me on my way.

That meant finding the right vehicle for my height and weight, age and experience, and providing me with ample information about conditions I was likely to encounter.

“Now, have you ever changed a flat tire, in the event that happens?” Neaman challenged me.

“I need complete honesty here.” I confessed that several years had passed since I had changed a flat.

“In that case,” he said, offering a piece of paper, “call me if you run into any trouble at all.”

My rides went smoothly, but I was glad for the support. The small and slender Neaman, I soon learned from other riders, is something of a local legend in Ketchum, and his weekly group rides, departing The Elephant’s Perch at 6:15 p.m. Wednesdays, draw a regular crowd. Perhaps that’s because they always end with beers at the Roosevelt Grille, a local tavern.

Road biking Karl Weatherly, an actionsports photographer who makes his home in Ketchum, joined me on a road-biking tour around Sun Valley Resort and through adjacent Elkhorn Village. We met in Ketchum outside The Elephant’s Perch, rode a mile and a half northeast to the main resort complex, then turned southeast past the venerable Sun Valley Lodge and the impressive Sun Valley Pavilion, a concert venue newly completed in 2008.

Bicycle technician Nappy Neaman prepares cyclists for Sun Valley-area roads and trails at The Elephant’s Perch. Neaman leads weekly group rides with a strong local following.

The route at first was a gentle ascent, but as we circled Dollar Mountain, the original ski hill of western North America’s first destination resort (established in 1936), the climb got tougher.

Weatherly, who has lived at this 5,700-foot elevation for well over a decade, crossed the saddle to Elkhorn with a great deal more ease than I did.

From that point, however, my huffing and puffing slowed. The condo development at Elkhorn

Village quickly gave way to tranquil Elkhorn Gulch, its ponds home to handsome blue herons.

Our bike trail return to Ketchum paralleled Idaho state Highway 75, the main route north into Sun Valley from Twin Falls and Interstate 84.

“There are about 15,000 people in Blaine County, where Sun Valley is located,” Weatherly told me. Nearly 4,000 of them are in Ketchum, he said; another 6,000 people live in Hailey and just

“It’s only 12 miles from Ketchum to Hailey, but the paved Wood River Trail System extends for 32 miles around the area,” Weatherly said. “For those of us who would rather bike than drive, it’s a great way to get around.”

Later, on my own, I explored both Ketchum and Hailey. First, I rode to River Run Plaza, one of Bald Mountain’s two access areas. Its new high-speed gondola opened last year to provide yearround access to the gourmet lunches served at the midmountain Roundhouse Restaurant.

I peeked through the windows of the Ore Wagon Museum, whose aged treasures are tall, narrow wagons with 7-foot wheels. Through the 1880s, they hauled millions of dollars of silver and lead ore from outlying mines to Wood River Valley smelters.

Today, they are pulled by mules through Ketchum’s streets during the Wagon Days Celebration on Labor Day weekend.

REDMOND, OREGON

C OV ER S T ORY From previous page Northeast of the resort, just off Trail Creek Road, I found the Ernest Hemingway Memorial, dedicated to the memory of the 20th-century novelist who died in 1961 in his adopted hometown of Ketchum. Hemingway completed one of his greatest works, “For Whom the Bell Tolls,” while staying at the Sun Valley Lodge in 1939. The monument is close to the Sun Valley Club, where golfers tee off on world-class links.

In Hailey, I made it a point to visit Billy Olson’s pub and bike shop, The Power House. Olson, a former bicycle racer and mechanic, opened the establishment in December. The menu is simple, mostly burgers and salads, but the atmosphere is all about bicycling. There’s an outstanding selection of beers, and the shop is fully open to the café, so patrons can watch the work being done on their bikes. “People used to always bring six-packs into the bike shop while we worked on bikes, anyway,” Olson said with a smile.

A Harriman Trail bench beside Baker Creek serves as a memorial to Pamela Harriman, widow of Sun Valley founder W. Averell Harriman. It was the gift of her son, Winston Churchill.

Harriman Trail The Big Wood River emerges from the uplands of the Sawtooth National Recreation Area and flows through a series of distinctive Rocky Mountain spur ranges that direct its southward course. The Boulder Mountains stand to the northeast; the Pioneer Mountains to the east; the Smoky Mountains to the west and southwest. It’s here, among peaks rising higher than Oregon’s Mount Hood, that mountain bikers of all ability levels find their particular meccas.

Galena Lodge, 26 miles north of Ketchum, is a focal point of this wild country. It’s an outdoors lover’s oasis, the only relic remaining from the boom-and-bust 1880s silver-mining town of Galena.

Once a general mercantile store, it was extensively renovated in the early 1990s and purchased by the Blaine County Recreation District, which also operates the Wood River Trail System. Now it is open primarily for lunches during the summer and winter seasons, functioning as a hub for biking and hiking trails that serve nordic skiers after the snow falls.

The 31-kilometer (19-mile) Harriman Trail, which honors the memory of Sun Valley Resort founder W. Averell Harriman, was developed in 1996, not long after the completion of the Galena Lodge restoration. Maintained in part by the U.S. Forest Service, it is exclusively open to nonmotorized travel. Crushed gravel provides the foundation for this narrow, doubletrack trail, with bridges crossing larger creeks and asphalt underlying many smaller ones.

The Mountain Fairy Shuttle dropped me at Galena Lodge shortly before noon. I made arrangements to be picked up three hours later at North Fork, headquarters of the Sawtooth recreation area. I would be descending

1,200 feet, I reasoned, from a starting elevation of about 7,300 feet; the ride would be a piece of cake.

I quickly discovered that certain climbs were necessary to maintain the downhill trend.

Within the first mile of my ride, I found myself on Hawk Hill, a moderate ascent for some, I’m sure, but a relatively strenuous one for me. By the time I reached a trail-side interpretive site pinpointing mountain goat habitat across the Big Wood River, on the lower slopes of the Boulder Mountains, I already knew this terrain was better suited for sure-footed goats than an out-ofshape bicyclist.

Yet I persisted, crossing Prairie Creek, Anderson Creek and a series of primitive dirt roads leading into Sawtooth National Forest. At first, I gave only passing attention to the wolf scat and other signs of wildlife I spotted along the way. Then, just past the Russian John Guard Station, I encountered the deer leg in the middle of my path.

The limb had been torn from a carcass several inches above the deer’s ankle ... and it was so fresh, it was still bright red with blood. I was face-to-face with the reality of wilderness. There was really no reason for me to stick around and wait for the animal that had abandoned its food to reappear. I picked up my pace and completed my ride with time to spare.

I considered pausing for a dip at Easley Hot Springs. Instead, I cruised through the Wood River wetlands and finished my ride a little sore, a little sunburned, but very happy that I hadn’t encountered any wolves.

New and different If I had a little more self-confidence in the bicycle saddle, I

Rhythm & Ride In recognition of its growing bicycle culture, Sun Valley will hold a five-day bicycling and music festival beginning Wednesday.

Sun Valley Rhythm & Ride (www.svrhythmandride.com) will open with a public criterium to benefit the Wood River Bike Coalition. Promoters hope to make it an annual event.

Planned are a Fat Tire Rally for mountain bikers on Thursday and Friday evenings in Hailey’s Croy Canyon, and a road-biking “poker ride” in Sun Valley during the day on Friday. Also on Thursday and Friday, the Smoky Mountain

might have tried something really different, like a pump park.

Pump bikes don’t have pedals. Riders are challenged to use their body English to navigate the bumps and banked turns of dirt-covered courses.

If you have not yet heard of this cycling phenomenon, you’re not alone. Ketchum and Hailey were among the first communities in North America to jump on the bandwagon last fall. The Ketchum course is built for speed. The Hailey Park is tighter and more technical. Both have their share of jumps certain to challenge a body’s built-in shock absorbers.

Central Idaho also has a facility where ambitious students of bicycling can learn to “pump,” to ride bicycle motocross or simply to become proficient at mountain biking. The Smoky Mountain Lodge and Bike Ranch is a full 90minute drive from Sun Valley (26 miles north of the village of Fairfield via Forest Service roads), but it’s rapidly gaining acclaim.

A center for heli-skiing in winter, the Smoky Mountain Lodge

— John Gottberg Anderson has a summer staff of expert bicyclists who teach beginning and advanced classes through Labor Day. A system of singletrack trails helps mountain bikers to develop confidence, while the coaches build stunt upon stunt to assist adventurous riders in learning technical jumps and overcoming their fears.

I wonder if they also offer instruction in overcoming one’s fear of bicycling with wolves.

Pride Continued from C1 That theme of community is also present in the photo and text exhibit “We Live Here, Too” now on exhibit at TBD Loft and moving to Sparrow Bakery in July. For the exhibit, local artist Theresa Peterson, who goes by the name Teafly, has interviewed local gay and lesbian couples and individuals and children or parents of people who identify as gay, bisexual or transgender.

With Peskin’s help in finding participants, Teafly interviewed some 14 subjects, then photographed them in a place they love.

“I only had a few people who took me out for more of a hike; most people wanted to stay around town,” she says. “I thought more people would take me out to their favorite little field or something.”

The idea behind the show was to “bring the community together a little more,” she says. “I think one of the things that (Peskin) had always expressed having trouble (with) was people not coming out to events, and gay people not coming out to the events. And it’s interesting, because I think it’s one of those issues where people

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, June 20, 2010: This year, you clear the way for better understanding. If you are attached, the two of you will expand your commitment together. If you’re creative or artistic, you could create one of your life’s masterpieces. Let your imagination come through more often. If you are single, you will draw many different types of people. Your dance card will be full. Relish the process of getting to know the different people and eliminating some.

LIBRA always enchants 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) HHHHH Others want more feedback. The perpetual calls and conversations could become a drain if you were planning on a quiet day.

Your words and thoughts make sense, drawing in a partner. Tonight: Go with another’s suggestion.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Get into a project or perhaps a family picnic. Expect a low-key tone, and you won’t be disappointed. A conversation about money might be more important to the other party than to you. Still, be a good listener. Tonight: Start mentally organizing for tomorrow.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Your imagination, for the most part, is an asset, unless you dream too much and aren’t based somewhere in reality. Someone you care about starts displaying

his or her true colors once more.

You might wonder what is going on to cause this change. Think less. Enjoy the change. Tonight: As if there were no tomorrow.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Keep your cool, even if your plans for a quiet, peaceful day get blown. You will find time to work through an inner issue that has been on your mind. Anchor in, knowing your priorities. A family member delights in your company. Tonight: At home.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Keep conversations moving. Friends enjoy your humor and witty repartee. The laughter that ensues does more for the soul than you can imagine. A younger person shares more of what is important to him or her. Tonight: Hang out until the wee hours.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH You might want to understand more of what is important to you. Observe insecurity and when it comes up. You are capable of making a big difference once you get past your own limitations. Start now. Tonight: Treat yourself.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You easily could go overboard trying to have a good time. Someone you care about reaches out to you. You could be planning a trip before you know it. Start dreaming up possible rendezvous points.

Tonight: Swap ideas.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Taking off might be quite OK, as long as no one worries

about you. Have a discussion with a partner or family member that is long overdue. Remember that this talk is two-way. Tonight: You can continue to vanish if you so choose!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Understand what is happening with a partner or close associate. This person might be more open and more willing to reveal him- or herself in a casual discussion. Don’t allow someone to horn in on your talk.

Tonight: Where your friends are.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH An appearance cannot be avoided. Put your best foot forward in a discussion. An older person appreciates everything you do, though he or she might not always verbalize it. Later today, sit down with a friend for a game of cards or Scrabble. Tonight: Start thinking about tomorrow.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Keep reaching out for someone at a distance. Make calls to several family members you haven’t spoken with for a long time.

Playing catch-up invigorates your energy. Schedule a get-together later in the day. Tonight: Let your mind play with the possibilities.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Deal with a key person directly. Much that you share can and will be kept confidential. You’ll both gain a greater sense of security as a result and feel even more at home together. If you are already partnered, a decision you make today could establish a new path. Tonight: Make it cozy. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Dixie Chicks weary? Yes. Ready to make nice? No.

Merchant’s new album of lullabies isn’t just for kids

Country rockers back on tour after a 4-year absence

By John Timpane

By Jon Caramanica New York Times News Service

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — How best to foment a Dixie Chicks reappraisal in the country music world? Maybe they can tape a funnyordie.com sketch with their old sparring partner in cultural politics, Toby Keith. Maybe Taylor Swift can start covering “Landslide” or “Not Ready to Make Nice” in concert. Maybe, simply, they can make great country songs and play them.

At the moment, that seems like the least likely option. In the four years since their last album, “Taking the Long Way” (Columbia), the Dixie Chicks — Natalie Maines, Martie Maguire and Emily Robison — have been very careful about language: No, the group isn’t breaking up; these shows, part of the Eagles’ long march promoting its 2007 album “Long Road Out of Eden” (ERC II), which arrived at the new Meadowlands Stadium Thursday, doesn’t constitute a farewell tour.

The reasoning is likely far more mundane: “Any time the Chicks want to play, that takes precedence, because we can make a lot of money,” Maguire told The New York Times earlier this year. On June 10, that meant a concise, predictable and invigorating one-hour set, early in the evening, under the threat of rain.

By 8:30 p.m. it was over, with the group having neither updated its sound nor rebuked it.

Instead, the Dixie Chicks showed why they remain one of the most vital country acts today, even if “country” and “today” are loose concepts. Maines, whose hair was buzzed short to a knob crop, made a big stir, stomping ferociously at the center of the

She was especially sharp on rousers like “Truth No. 2” and “Sin Wagon,” less so on calmer songs like “Landslide” and “Easy Silence.”

The show’s peak was “Not Ready to Make Nice,” the arresting position statement from the group’s last album, their first following the 2003 brouhaha in which they criticized

then-President George W. Bush to the distaste of the country music establishment. It earned the biggest response of the night, especially from younger women in the audience, many of whom stood up in their seats and chanted along.

The song would have made for an ideal closer, ending the show in a gust of indignation, but the

group quickly cut the mood with the jubilant “Ready to Run,” then closed with “Goodbye Earl,” its clever, sinister anti-domestic violence anthem.

That series highlighted the ambiguity that still shrouds the band. The group hasn’t toured since its last album, and in May Maguire and Robison, who are sisters, released a tepid album as Court Yard Hounds, on which Maines is nowhere to be found. In an “Access Hollywood” interview featured on the Dixie Chicks’ website, Maines talked about not being ready to make new music: “I was very happy to be in sunny California, crafting and gardening.”

Onstage, she betrayed only a whisper of regret about taking time away from songwriting. “Every once in a while a song comes along that you wish you had written, and this is one of those,” she said, introducing a rare Dixie Chicks cover version of a current hit. Would it be Katy Perry’s “California Gurls”? La Roux’s “Bulletproof”? Grimly, it was “Hey, Soul Sister,” by the adult-contemporary snoozers Train, who could learn something from how the Dixie Chicks added layers of complexity to the song.

It wasn’t hard to think that a proper Dixie Chicks version of that song, or any other, would be welcome. In the group’s absence, its sound — femaledriven harmonies over popfriendly country arrangements — has gained renewed currency. Little Big Town, Lady Antebellum, Sugarland and more, all groups who likely grew up on the first two Dixie Chicks albums, are now, inadvertently, setting the table for the group’s possible return.

“See y’all next time,” Maines said at the end of the show, and she almost sounded as if she meant it.

By Beau Eastes The Bulletin

PRINEVILLE — For a roughstock rookie, Redmond High juniorto-be Wyatt Bloom sure is a quick learner.

A breakaway roper when he was in junior high, Bloom, who took up bareback riding just this season, won the short-go Saturday at the 2010 Oregon High School Rodeo Association state finals at the Crook County Fairgrounds.

Bloom, who also won Friday’s second-round performance, posted a 76-point ride to top Tri-County Rodeo Club teammate Austin Foss, of Terrebonne, who recorded a 75 in Saturday’s short-go. (The TriCounty Rodeo Club includes high school rodeo contestants throughout Central Oregon.) Foss and Bloom finished first and second, respectively, in the final OHSRA bareback standings, which earned both riders an invitation to next month’s National High School Rodeo Finals in Gillette, Wyo. The top four finishers in the final OHSRA standings for each rodeo event are eligible to compete in the national finals.

“I just wondered what it was like at the other end of the arena,” Bloom kidded about making the move from roping to riding.

TENNIS: WIMBLEDON PREVIEW

S B

Auto racing • Edwards wins NASCAR Nationwide race: Carl Edwards swooped past Jacques Villeneuve on a restart with nine laps to go, then ran away from the field to win the NASCAR Nationwide series race at Road America in Elkhart Lake, Wis., on Saturday. Villeneuve made a wild charge to the lead with 12 laps to go. But another caution bunched up the field, allowing Edwards to make his decisive move. Ron Fellows finished second in a Chevrolet, 4.302 seconds behind Edwards’ Ford.

Brendan Gaughan finished third in a Toyota. Villeneuve had mechanical problems in the closing laps, costing him a potential second-place finish.

• Power takes pole in Iowa: Will Power has made a name for himself on road courses, but he’s always wanted to be considered one of the best all-around drivers in the Indy Racing League. Power took a major step in that direction on Saturday, winning his first career pole on an oval course for today’s Iowa 250. Power has now earned four poles this season and six in his last 14 IndyCar Series races. But by earning the front spot on the Iowa Speedway’s .875-mile short oval, Power put himself in the best position yet for what he really wants — that elusive first oval win. Power gave Team Penske a record seventh straight IndyCar pole position.

He qualified with an average lap of 181.337 mph, beating out Scott Dixon by a fraction of a second. Dixon joined Power on the front row for Sunday’s race.

Marco Andretti will start third and Helio Castroneves is fourth.

Points leader Dario Franchitti, who won at Iowa in 2007 and 2009, will start fifth and Danica Patrick will start ninth.

Soccer • U.S.-Slovenia draws most ESPN households for soccer: The United States’ controversial 2-2 World Cup draw with Slovenia, in which an apparent late go-ahead goal for the Americans was disallowed by a referee who didn’t explain his decision, drew the most households for a soccer match in ESPN’s history. Friday’s game, which began at 7 a.m. PDT, received a 3.9 fast national rating, ESPN said Saturday, and was seen in 3,906,000 homes. The 5.2 million viewers were the third-most for soccer on the cable network, trailing only 5.85 million for Italy’s 2-0 overtime win over Germany in the 2006 semifinals and 5,353,000 for Germany’s 10 victory over the United States in the 2002 quarterfinals.

Cycling • Portuguese rider wins stage in Switzerland: Rui Da Costa of Portugal broke away over the final six miles to win the eighth stage of the Tour of Switzerland on Saturday.

Robert Gesink of the Netherlands maintained the race leader’s jersey, and seven-time Tour de France winner Lance Armstrong held seventh place, 55 seconds back. Today’s last stage is a time trial. Luxembourg cyclist Kim Kirchen didn’t start after having a heart attack on Friday night at his team hotel. The 31-year-old Kirchen was put in a medically induced coma at the Zurich University Clinic. Team Katusha said in a statement that the rider is in a stable condition and tests so far have ruled out an infarction or a thrombosis. He will have to remain in a coma for at least 24 hours. Armstrong, who didn’t speak to reporters after the stage, will face his last big test before next month’s Tour de France in today’s 17-mile time trial that starts with a sevenmile ascent.

• UCI to check for electric bikes at Tour de France: Cy-

cling’s governing body will perform tests at this year’s Tour de France to ensure that racers are not cheating by using motors hidden in their bicycle frames.

The International Cycling Union said in a statement that “a scanner will be used from the time of the Tour de France.” Recent speculation has focused on Swiss rider Fabian Cancellara, who denied he won Paris-Roubaix and the Tour of Flanders this year with the help of a motorized bike. A video posted on various websites appears to show Cancellara pushing a button on the handlebars of his bike during both races.

Basketball • Former NBA player Manute Bol dies: Manute Bol, a lithe 7-foot-7 shot-blocker from Sudan who spent 10 seasons in the NBA and was dedicated to humanitarian work in Africa, died Saturday. He was 47. Bol died at the University of Virginia Hospital in Charlottesville, where he was being treated for severe kidney trouble and a painful skin condition, Tom Prichard, executive director of the group Sudan Sunrise, said in an e-mail. Bol played in the NBA with Washington, Golden State, Philadelphia and Miami, averaging 2.6 points, 4.2 rebounds and 3.3 blocks for his career. He led the league in blocks in 1985-86 with Washington (5.0 per game) and in 1988-89 with Golden State (4.3 a game).

• LeBron makes appearance at Akron rally: With thousands of his hometown fans on hand, LeBron James made a dramatic — and very late — appearance at “LeBron Appreciation Day” in Akron, Ohio A crowd estimated at 3,500 had already begun to depart Akron’s InfCision Stadium on Saturday when James walked through a side entrance and made his way down to the playing field. Hundreds of fans rushed back inside as James was presented with a crystal trophy, which had already been placed back inside a box before his surprise appearance. After a few words, the two-time MVP then left the stadium as quickly as he entered. James was being honored not far from where he grew up in a city he affectionately calls home. Fans were on hand in an effort to convince the soon-to-be free agent not to leave the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Tennis • Henin wins on grass: Justine Henin defeated Andrea Petkovic 3-6, 6-3, 6-4 to win the UNICEF Open in Den Bosch, Netherlands, for her first grass-court title in three years.

After trading the first two sets Saturday, Petkovic broke the top-seeded Belgian in the second game of the final set before holding serve for a comfortable 3-0 lead. But Henin held serve and blasted a forehand winner on her way to breaking the German in the fifth game. Henin, who did not drop a set or face a tiebreak heading into the final, completed a stunning rally by breaking Petkovic in the ninth game. Earlier Saturday, Sergiy Stakhovsky beat seventh-seeded Janko Tipsarevic 6-3, 6-0 to win the men’s title.

• Qualifier takes Eastbourne title: Unseeded Ekaterina Makarova of Russia defeated Victoria Azarenka 7-6 (5), 6-4 at the Eastbourne International grass-court event in England Saturday to win her first career title. The 22-year-old becomes the first unseeded champion at Eastbourne since American Chanda Rubin in 2002. She’s also the first qualifier to win the title. Makarova is the first qualifier to win a title on the WTA Tour since Alexandra Dulgheru in Warsaw last year. In the men’s final, Michael Llodra of France defeated Guillermo Garcia-Lopez 7-5, 6-2.

— From wire reports

Roddick returns to site of 16-14 loss American player will try to break through after epic fifth set in ‘09 final

By Howard Fendrich The Associated Press

“Rodd-ick!

Rodd-ick!

Rodd-ick!”

Surprising as it may have been to hear full-throated chants echo through the often-staid Centre Court stands — 15,000 or so voices rising as one in the moments after last year’s Wimbledon final concluded with a 16-14 fifth set — what was most remarkable was the name the spectators chose to yell.

They did not salute the champion, Roger Federer, who claimed his sixth title at Wimbledon and record-breaking 15th Grand Slam title overall.

Instead, they hailed the runnerup, Andy Roddick, who dropped to 1-4 in major finals, including 0-3 at the All England Club — each loss against Federer.

“Rodd-ick!

Rodd-ick!

Rodd-ick!”

When Wimbledon begins Monday, Roddick will resume his quest for a championship that would mean quite a lot to him, one that barely eluded him in 2009.

Roddick served almost impeccably and was broken only once, in the 77th and last game of Federer’s 5-7, 7-6 (6), 7-6 (5), 3-6, 16-14 victory — the longest match and longest fifth set, in terms of games, in Grand Slam final history. And don’t forget this: Roddick injured his hip when he tumbled to the court in the fourth set.

“I’m always anxious going into Wimbledon. I don’t think that’s going to change,” said the 27-year-old Roddick, who lives in Austin, Texas. “I don’t go in with any sense of entitlement or any sense of anything like that.

I’m excited to get onto a surface that I actually feel that I can impose my game on a little bit more.”

Or as Roddick’s coach, Larry Stefanki, put it: “Grass is what you’d call his bread-and-butter.”

Roddick’s fastest-on-tour serve only gets speedier and tougher for opponents to handle on the slick surface used at Wimbledon. It’s a formula similar to one Venus and Serena Williams employ to dominate opponents at this Grand Slam tournament, divvying up eight of the past 10 Wimbledon championships.

Roddick did win the 2003 U.S. Open, but he is still waiting for No. 1 at Wimbledon, and his oh-so-close calls only have increased his intention to do well at the All England Club.

Stefanki cautioned, though, that Roddick needs to focus on the here-and-now at the start of the tournament.

“The fire, the drive, the internal flame is going to be there until he climbs the peak. But you’ve got to find a balance,” Stefanki said. “That’s the last thing you want to think about — winning a major when you’ve got seven rounds to win. Until you get to that seventh match, you’d better put that on the back burner. I mean, way on the back burner.”

There are plenty of players who could block the No. 5-seeded Roddick’s path, including the

Roger Federer, left, holds his trophy and Andy Roddick holds the runners-up plate after Federer defeated Roddick to win the men’s singles championship on Centre Court at Wimbledon last year.

Wimbledon ’10: Tournament at a glance A look at Wimbledon, the year’s third Grand Slam tennis tournament: Surface: Grass courts.

Site: The All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club.

Schedule: Play begins Monday, June 21. The women’s singles final is July 3; the men’s singles final is July 4. There is no play scheduled for the twoweek tournament’s middle Sunday, June 27.

2009 men’s singles champion: Roger Federer of Switzerland.

2009 women’s singles champion: Serena Williams of the United States.

Last year: Federer beat Andy Roddick of the United States 5-7, 7-6 (6), 7-6 (5), 3-6, 16-14, the longest match and fifth set — in terms of games — in Grand Slam final history, eclipsing records that had stood since 1927. It gave Federer his sixth Wimbledon championship, one shy of the record, and allowed the Swiss star to raise his career total to 15 Grand Slam singles titles, breaking a tie with Pete Sampras for most in history. Williams won her third Wimbledon singles title by beating older sister Venus 7-6 (3), 6-2 in the final. It was the eighth all-Williams major final; Serena leads 6-2.

Key statistic: 19-2 — Rafael Nadal’s record at Wimbledon from 2006-08.

He won the 2008 championship, after losing to Federer in the 2006 and 2007 finals. Nadal returns to the tournament this year after withdrawing because of knee tendinitis in 2009 and declining to defend his title.

Two other returns: Belgians Kim Clijsters and Justine Henin, multiple Grand Slam title winners, are back at the All England Club after miniretirements. Clijsters last appeared in 2006; Henin in 2007. Neither has won Wimbledon.

The Queen: Queen Elizabeth II is planning to attend Wimbledon on Thursday, June 24, her first visit to the tournament since 1977.

When it rains: As of last year, Centre Court is fitted with a retractable roof, which will allow for matches to be played during wet weather.

New this year: A “Championships Poet” will compose a poem a day about Wimbledon.

Prize money: Total is about $20.3 million (13,725,000 pounds), with about $1.48 million (1 million pounds) each to the men’s and women’s singles champions.

TV: ESPN2 (starting Monday), Tennis Channel (replays, interviews and more, starting Monday), NBC (starting June 26). top-seeded Federer, who has reached a record seven consecutive Wimbledon finals. The only loss in those seven? That came in 2008 against Federer’s nemesis, Rafael Nadal.

Other men to watch include No. 4 Andy Murray, Britain’s best hope to end a Grand Slam title drought that extends to the 1930s; No. 6 Robin Soderling, who ended Nadal’s record 31match French Open winning streak last year and ended Federer’s record streak of 23 consecutive Grand Slam semifinals at the French Open this month; and No. 18 Sam Querrey of Santa Monica, Calif., who won a tuneup title on grass last weekend.

Nadal did not defend his

Wimbledon championship last year, withdrawing a few days before the tournament began because of painful tendinitis in both knees.

“One year ago I was injured, and now I am not injured,” said

Nadal, fresh off his fifth French Open championship. “That’s the big difference.”

Nadal’s is but one of several significant returns anticipated at the All England Club in 2010: • Justine Henin, who owns seven Grand Slam titles but none from Wimbledon, will be back for the first time since 2007, having rejoined the tour this season after a 20-month hiatus; • Kim Clijsters, a two-time U.S. Open champion and twice a semifinalist at Wimbledon, hasn’t played at the grass-court major tournament since 2006, owing to a 2½-year semi-retirement, during which she got married and became a mother; • Martina Hingis and Anna Kournikova are planning to play in the legends’ doubles event; Hingis retired for the second time in 2007, when she was given a two-year suspension for failing a drug test at Wimbledon, while Kournikova last played singles at the All England Club in 2002; • Those waits are all rather quaint compared to that of Queen Elizabeth II, who is expected to attend Wimbledon next Thursday, her first visit to the tournament since 1977.

That was the last time a British woman (Virginia Wade) won Wimbledon, and the year Bjorn Borg won the second of his five consecutive championships.

Roddick, of course, would love to have one.

“He doesn’t feel like, ‘Oh, it was a lost opportunity last year.’ At all,” Stefanki said.

“No, he thinks: ‘This one here is another opportunity, coming ahead on the horizon.’ Which is beautiful. That’s the attitude you have to have.”

Has Roddick made time to check out last year’s stirring final on DVD? “I’m sure if it was on TV somewhere, and it was a rerun, I’d probably watch it — you know, if I didn’t have a round of golf or something,” Roddick said. “I don’t think I’m going to live the rest of my existence without watching probably the best match that I’ve been a part of. I don’t know if I’m going to go watch it tomorrow, but, yeah, I probably will at some point.”

In the time that’s passed since that day, people all over the world have mentioned the match to Roddick, and he senses that he earned a lot of new fans despite losing.

Indeed, he hopes this year’s Wimbledon will draw to a close as the Centre Court crowd once again sings his name — this time celebrating the champion, rather than consoling the runner-up.

DENVER — What started as another low-scoring affair for two scuffling offenses turned into a wild slugfest with Seth Smith leading Colorado to the victory. The Rockies were down by three entering the seventh but scored seven times over the next two innings to take an 8-4 lead into the ninth before Milwaukee’s rally came up short.

TORONTO — Aaron Hill hit a two-run homer to snap a scoreless tie in the eighth inning and Toronto beat San Francisco. Hill connected off Matt Cain with two outs for his 10th home run this season. The Blue Jays lead the majors with 105.

U.S. thinks about getting ahead against Algeria

By Ronald Blum The Associated Press

IRENE, South Africa — The pattern is hard to miss: The United States falls behind by a goal or two, then tries to scramble back.

So U.S. coach Bob Bradley gathered his players together Friday night — after the thrilling comeback and disallowed goal — and reminded them about Father’s Day in Rustenburg last year, when he spoke to his team after opening losses to Italy and Brazil in the Confederations Cup. They responded by routing Egypt 3-0, and didn’t stop there.

The U.S. went on to upset European champion Spain and advanced to the final against Brazil, where the Americans took a two-goal lead before losing.

“Whether you are a father or you’re thinking about your own father, we all shake each other’s hand and give each other a hug and it’s a happy Father’s Day deal,” he said Saturday. “That turned the tide. So maybe that will do it this time around, too.”

In a tournament dominated by mostly dull matches, the U.S. has survived two edge-of-yourseat games. But time is running out.

The Americans played to a 1-1 tie with England, a controversial goal was nixed and gave them with a 2-2 tie against Slovenia and now comes Algeria on Wednesday. The U.S. can guarantee a berth in the second round with a win. If it ties, it would advance only if England loses to the Slovenes or the English tie and don’t overcome

Rodeo Continued from D1 While the other roughstock riders struggled during Saturday’s short-go — saddle bronc and bull riders were shut out in a combined 18 attempts on the day — the bareback competition was fierce. Donovan Orr, of Terrebonne, placed third with a score of 70. Kenny Haworth, of Crane, finished fourth with a 69. And Redmond riders David Peebles and Kolbe Ford tied for fifth with scores of 68.

“It makes it a lot more fun with the competition,” said Bloom, who credited Foss, Peebles and Haworth with getting him into bareback riding.

“I’d rather have (the scores) tight. It makes us get better.”

In the goat tying event, Jessica Wood continued her weekend-long hot streak, winning the short-go after also posting the fastest times during Thursday’s first round and Friday’s second round. In addition to winning the short-go, Wood, of Terrebonne, won the average at the state finals and finished first in the OHSRA season-ending standings.

“I wanted to keep on top (of the goat) and make sure I got a time,” said Wood, who just completed her junior year at the Redmond Proficiency Academy. “(The OHSRA standings) were so close, if I didn’t get a time I could have lost my spot to nationals.”

Wood did more than just stay on top, tying her goat in 6.97 seconds, the best mark in three days at the state finals. Powell Butte’s Casey Loper, the 2009 state champ and recent graduate of Crook County High School, finished second in the shortgo and in the overall standings to Wood. Loper trailed Wood by just two points in the OHSRA standings entering this weekend’s three-day event before the Terrebonne standout rolled off three victories in three days to claim her first Oregon state title one year after finishing second to Loper.

In other events, Culver’s Jimi Jones posted the fastest barrel racing time during Saturday’s shortgo, giving her two wins in three days.

OMAHA, Neb. — Despite having been UCLA’s season-long No. 2 starter before Saturday night, Trevor Bauer looked every bit a No. 1 when given the ball for the Bruins’ College World Series opener.

John Savage played a hunch by going with Bauer over Gerrit Cole, and the UCLA coach looked smart after the game.

The sophomore right-hander struck out 11 in strong seven innings and set the UCLA season record, and the Bruins cranked up their offense to beat Florida 11-3 for the program’s first win in Omaha.

“It was a tough decision,” Savage said. “Gerrit has started (first) all season long. That’s one thing we’ve been very consistent with, and we kind of know our roles.

“We just kind of went with the matchup. It could have backfired, but we know we have a bunch of No. 1s. Trevor upheld his end of the deal, and now we’re moving on.”

The Bruins (49-14), who went two-and-out in each of their only two previous Omaha appearances, will play first-time CWS qualifier TCU in a Bracket 1 winners’ game on Monday night.

Florida (47-16), the No. 3 national seed, meets Florida State in a Monday afternoon elimination game.

The No. 6 seed Bruins, who

team they felt they should have beaten. After falling behind 2-0 at halftime, the U.S. came back on goals by Donovan and Bradley and thought they had gone ahead when Maurice Edu knocked in Donovan’s free kick in the 85th minute.

However, referee Koman Coulibaly of Mali called off the goal, apparently for a foul.

He didn’t give an explanation — none was required — leaving U.S. players angry and fans back home howling. The U.S. Soccer Federation decided there was nothing in FIFA’s rules allowing an appeal, so the matter is closed.

Bradley maintained that it was a “good goal” and speculated that Coulibaly, working his first World Cup match, regretted awarding the free kick and blew his whistle to immediately negate it. He suspects there never will be an explanation, though FIFA said its refereeing experts will comment Monday on Coulibaly’s performance.

“We’re all accustomed to the fact that if it’s an NFL playoff game and there’s a call that’s in question, there will be a statement by the league from the referees, but FIFA operates differently,” Bradley said. “There are some aspects of it that are not made 100 percent clear. That seems to add to the discussion about the game. So from our end, we get used to that. And we all have friends and family who ask us the same questions that most of you ask, and you end up saying that’s just how it is sometimes, and then you move on and you get ready for the next game.”

Wood won the state title in the discipline. saddle bronc competitor did — Madras cowboy Clint Johnson claimed the state title.

the U.S. advantage in goals, currently 3-1.

“I think going into that final game we have to go in believing we’re going to get out of the group, because that’s the only way to think,” defender Jay DeMerit said. “Is that going to happen? We’ll find out.”

After being eliminated in the first round at the 2006 tournament in Germany, the U.S. had high hopes coming into this World Cup, especially with Landon Donovan, Clint Dempsey and Tim Howard in the prime of their careers.

While the offense has produced goals, the defense has been shaky. England and Slovenia exploited gaps between the midfield and defense, and DeMerit and Oguchi Onyewu have been slow to react at times. As a result, the opposition had space that allowed it to split the back line. In eight of the last 12 qualifiers and World Cup matches combined, the U.S. has allowed the first goal.

“It’s not like we sit and say to ourselves, all right, let’s wait until we go down 1-0, 2-0,” said Michael Bradley, the coach’s son.

“You play at the highest level, you can’t give away goals like that.”

Donovan said players had only themselves to blame for the goals by Slovenia.

“We started the match poorly.

We were tentative. I think we sat too deep, which caused us problems,” he said.

American players were pleased with the opening tie against England, but frustrated by the draw against Slovenia, a

COLLEGE BASEBALL relied mostly on pitching and defense to set a school record for wins, scored in all but one inning and banged out 18 hits. Niko Gallego went four for five and Beau Amaral three for four.

They also took advantage of Florida’s pitching problems. Gators starter Andy Panteliodis and four others combined to hit four batters and throw four wild pitches, two of which resulted in UCLA runs. The Bruins also scored on a passed ball and an error.

Bauer (11-3) set the UCLA strikeout record in his last inning when he caught Jonathan Pigot looking at strike three. Bauer struck out Preston Tucker to end the seventh, giving him 11 for the game and 152 for the season. The sophomore from Valencia, Calif., has struck out 10 or more in seven of his 17 starts.

DURBAN, South Africa — Wesley Sneijder scored the only goal and the Netherlands beat Japan 1-0. The victory, combined with Denmark’s 2-1 win over Cameroon, clinched a spot in the second round for the Dutch.

Sneijder’s 53rd-minute strike finally broke through a Japanese defense that had stifled Dutch creativity in front of 62,010 fans at Moses Mabhida Stadium.

The Netherlands again failed to live up to its billing as one of the most fluid attacking teams of the tournament, though it won nevertheless. The Dutch struggled to a 2-0 victory over Denmark in its first Group E match.

The win set a record of 10 straight victories for the Netherlands in World Cup qualifiers and finals matches — a run that includes eight qualification matches and its two victories in South Africa.

A glimpse of the old Tiger

By Tim Dahlberg The Associated Press

PEBBLE BEACH, Calif — ebble Beach provided the backdrop, and Tiger Woods did his best to make it mustsee TV. NBC couldn’t have asked for more from some night golf that, depending on how you looked at it, either showed how desperate the network is for programming or how people will tune in to see Woods no matter what he’s doing.

Quite well, it turns out, which was great news for the beleaguered Team Tiger. The news was just as good for the network executives who were counting on him to carry the broadcast for two nights running at the U.S. Open.

Two years ago they experimented with prime time from Torrey Pines and Woods rewarded them with better drama than most episodes of Law & Order. His putt on the final hole to tie Rocco Mediate and send the Open into a Monday playoff gave NBC the third best Sunday Open ratings ever.

It was nearly as exciting Saturday, with Woods back to his fistpumping ways as he poured in putts from seemingly everywhere to roar back into contention as the crowd roared with him. That meant he either figured out something in his putting stroke or the same greens he trashed after the opening rounds somehow got remarkably better.

The slight by Woods to the people who so meticulously prepared Pebble Beach for the Open didn’t go unnoticed. He got a public reprimand from the executive director of the USGA, something that would have been unimaginable before his fall from grace.

“He is entitled to his opinion,

P

U.S. Continued from D1 McDowell struggled down the stretch, fell out of the lead on the 17th and finished with an evenpar 71. He will play in the final group today, with a familiar face — and a familiar game — directly in front. Woods was alone in third, five strokes back after his own 66.

Woods finally looks like the Woods of old.

Nine shots out of the lead after a pair of sloppy bogeys early in his round, Woods hit his stride by making the clutch putts and extraordinary shots that have been missing since he returned to competition two months ago.

First came a curling, downhill birdie putt on the 17th.

He followed that with an aggressive 3-wood on the 18th, carving it around a cypress and out toward the Pacific and onto the green to about 15 feet for a twoputt birdie. It was his eighth birdie of the round, the most he has ever made in a U.S. Open.

And it put him in the mix for a 15th major, and second U.S. Open at Pebble Beach.

“It’s been a while,” Woods said.

“I hadn’t played good enough for anyone to cheer anything. So it was nice to actually put it together on the back nine and put myself right back in the championship.”

Johnson, who played a practice round with Woods on Monday, made it a lot tougher.

The 25-year-old from South Carolina, often overlooked among the stylish young stars in golf, put on a powerful display that led Woods earlier this week to call him “stupid long.”

The USGA moved the tees forward on No. 4 to make it play 284 yards up the hill and tempt players to try to drive the green. Johnson did just that — with a 3-iron to four feet for an eagle. And on the 18th, the same hole where Woods hit 3wood off the tee and 3-wood onto the green for the loudest cheer of the day, Johnson got there with a driver and a 6-iron.

“Length is an advantage a lot of places, but definitely here, es-

U.S. OPEN C O M M E N TA RY but he’s off on his facts,” David Fay said. “These putting surfaces have never been better.”

The problem with Pebble’s greens is that the later it is during the day, the worse they get.

So the USGA, in its never-ending quest to squeeze more profit from its marquee event ($34 hats anyone?), defeated its own purpose by selling out to NBC and forcing the leaders to tee off in late afternoon so they could play in prime time on the East Coast.

“You kind of have to have a little thicker skin because the ball’s going to be bouncing a bit,” Nick Watney said. “You do the best you can and see where you end up.”

Where Woods finally ended up couldn’t have been predicted.

He had been practically invisible with two days of mediocre golf on the same course he ran away by 15 shots to win the Open the last time it was held here 10 years ago.

But he got the advantage of teeing off two hours before the leaders, who had to deal with greens that grew bumpier by the minute. And he didn’t have to spend all day pondering the diabolical ways that a spot of paradise on the Pacific could suddenly turn so ugly.

Phil Mickelson did, teeing off so late he might have had dinner before venturing out.

“I mean 4 o’clock?” Mickelson said the day before. “I’m driving home, getting the kids ready for doing their homework and getting ready for bed. So it will be awkward for us all.”

Mickelson could have used the late time as an excuse for trying

pecially if I’m hitting it in the fairway,” Johnson said. “Because the ball is going a long way. I’m hitting it extra far.”

Johnson, McDowell and Woods were the only three players who remained under par, while Ernie Els (72) and Gregory Havret of France (69) were at even-par 213.

Phil Mickelson stumbled at the start, nearly fell apart along the coastal holes when he had to play one shot right-handed, and had to scramble for par on the closing hole when his tee shot bounced off the rocks and rolled back down on the beach.

Mickelson, runner-up in the U.S. Open a record five times, wound up with a 73 and was seven shots out of the lead.

“I didn’t hit it as well as I did yesterday, so I had to fight pretty hard to get some up-and-downs — some ridiculous up-and-downs — to keep it within striking distance,” said Mickelson, who was at 1-over 214.

Mickelson normally would settle for 1-over par going into the last round of a U.S. Open. He just didn’t expect Johnson, one of his regular practice partners, to surge so far ahead.

“But anything can happen on Sunday,” Mickelson said. “And if you make a move, you can make up a lot of ground.”

That’s exactly what Woods did.

After bogeys on the second and third holes, he ran off birdies on the next three and made the turn in even par. Birdies on the 11th and 13th holes got him closer to the conversation, and the final three holes set off a series of cheers that could be heard from all corners of the peninsula.

He rolled in a 12-foot birdie from the 16th, then made the tough, downhill 15-footer from the fringe of the 17th, raising his index finger in the air.

The old Tiger showed up on the 18th hole.

Blocked behind a pair of cypress trees, some 260 yards from the flag into an ocean breeze, Woods hit a 3-wood toward the Pacific and urged it on toward the green. “C’mon! C’mon!” he screamed at it, and followed that

GOLF ROUNDUP

Korean takes LPGA lead The Associated Press GALLOWAY TOWNSHIP, N.J. — South Korea’s M.J. Hur led after two rounds of the ShopRite LPGA Classic with comeback kid Paula Creamer right behind.

Hur birdied the 18th hole for a 7-under 64 and one-stroke lead over Creamer heading into the final round of the $1.5 million tournament, just miles from Atlantic City.

The 20-year-old Hur had a 36hole total of 11-under 131 in her quest for her second LPGA victory. She won the Safeway event last year.

Japan’s Ai Miyazato, a three-

time winner on the tour this year, was two shots off the lead along with Australia’s Katherine Hull, who shot a tournament-best 8under 63 playing early Saturday morning.

Also on Saturday: Englishman in front in France SAINT-OMER, France — Jamie Elson of England shot a 3-under 68 to take the lead after the third round of the SaintOmer Open. The Englishman had six birdies and three bogeys Saturday for a total of 7-under 206 and a one-stroke lead over Robert Dinwiddie and Raphael Jacquelin.

a miracle shot out of the fairway bunker on the ninth hole that led to a costly double bogey. But Mickelson would try a miracle shot the moment he got out of bed in the morning, so there was no blaming the USGA for that one.

The double was unfortunate for Lefty, but it gave the prime time viewers in the East something to keep their attention. So did the charge from Woods, who rode to the rescue of the telecast just as Dustin Johnson and Graeme McDowell were threatening to put people to sleep across the country.

Woods played the last 15 holes in 7-under, a display of Open golf almost as startling as his romp at Pebble in 2000. The 66 was his lowest score since returning from the sex scandal that brought him down, and it came at a time when, even if he wasn’t doubting himself, others in the game were surely doubting him.

He topped it off with a 3-wood from behind the tree on the 18th fairway to about 20 feet and the crowd that swelled with each putt he made groaned along with him when the putt for eagle just barely missed.

“It was just a great atmosphere,” Woods said. “It felt good to put it together. Today I hit I shots the way I know I can hit shots.”

That could mean trouble for the players on the leaderboard with him who don’t have 14 major titles, and have never won an Open of any sort, much less at Pebble Beach. It also means people will tune in big numbers to watch and see how it all plays out today, no matter how they might feel about Woods himself.

All because Woods came out of nowhere when it mattered most.

with a “Yes!” when it stopped 15 feet from the pin.

“I was hitting shots like this every now and again,” Woods said.

“I would get into two-, three-hole stretches, but I haven’t strung it out for more than that. And today, I did.”

Connect Continued from D1 Last week, OSU and UO athletic departments were both in Bend playing golf: the Beavers on Monday, Ducks on Tuesday.

Thankfully, there were no reports of Duck and Beaver partisans re-enacting street-fight scenes from “West Side Story” in downtown Bend.

What brought so many Ducks from Eugene and Beavers from Corvallis to this side of the Cascades?

Perhaps Bob De Carolis, OSU athletic director, said it best without saying a word when he rolled up in a cart to the first tee at Pronghorn. On what this spring has been a rare beautiful, sunny day, De Carolis, when asked what he was doing here, raised his arms to shoulder height and looked to the sky.

Yes, despite recent evidence to the contrary, Central Oregon can have amazing weather this time of year.

For their annual golf visits, both schools shoot for June, a time when the weather is usually warm, the recruiting trail is cold, and most of the teams are out of action for the summer.

That allows coaches — and tons of them from nearly every sport were in attendance at each event last week, including head football coaches Chip Kelly of Oregon and Mike Riley of Oregon State — time to rub elbows with fans and play a little golf.

“There are only so many days you can do these,” De Carolis said.

The schools’ missions for the events were different. OSU hosts three golf tournaments — in Portland, Medford and Bend, along with a handful of town-hall-style events in smaller Oregon cities — to connect with fans outside of Corvallis.

And golf is always a good way to do that.

At $225 per golfer, the Beavers’ Bend tournament was not designed to be a significant fundraiser, said Linda Hurd, OSU assistant athletic director in charge of the Beaver Athletic

Student Fund.

“We have season-ticket holders all over the state and the Northwest,” Hurd said. “These people travel all season long to Corvallis, and it is only fitting for us to go out there.

“Our whole theme is just being able to meet the donors, tell them about our student-athletes, and strictly to be there and enjoy the day with them.”

The Ducks’ tournament, billed as Peter Jacobsen’s Legends of Oregon, was a bit more formal. It brought in UO heavyweights such as PGA Tour vet and Central Oregon tournament spearhead Jacobsen, former Duck quarterback Joey Harrington, and coaches, too.

Unfortunately for me, freeloading working media were shut out of the event.

But at $2,500 per foursome and with more than 100 UO boosters buying a spot in the field, Legends of Oregon has become a big deal for the Ducks.

“The Legends tournament has kind of evolved into our main fundraiser as far as golf events every year,” said Justin Fisher, the Duck Athletic Fund’s regional director of development. “We’re fortunate to have a guy like Peter Jacobsen to put his name behind it and come out to Central Oregon every year.

“It has become one of those exclusive opportunities to meet and have an intimate setting with some of the coaches and athletic greats of the University of Oregon.”

Each tournament draws about half of its golfers from outside Central Oregon. And indeed, some did get lost on their way here.

One OSU donor was late for his tee time because he had confused Broken Top for Pronghorn Club.

The golfer, though, was not shut out.

OSU’s event had a bit of a carnival atmosphere, which seemed odd at Pronghorn.

The usually pristine club was plastered with football posters boasting the current Oregon State slogan: “I am Orange.”

It could have easily been the Pronghorn’s own quote to describe the entire facility that day.

The driving range at Pronghorn looked like a football tailgater with all the orange pompoms and the motor home parked nearby and serving as the OSU event’s headquarters.

The tournament was not really about winning and losing — though that did not stop De Carolis from picking an exceptionally talented playing partner.

Bend’s Kailin Downs, the assistant women’s golf coach at OSU, said hello to me and asked if I had ever met De Carolis.

I had not, I replied.

Downs promptly performed a quick introduction, and I shot him my first question: “I noticed the athletic director is playing with Kailin Downs?”

De Carolis chuckled in reply: “I’m not stupid.”

No, he’s not. Downs, a former professional golfer and before that a high-school standout at Mountain View of Bend and then an All-American at the University of New Mexico, would be a nice addition to any foursome.

Of course, being paired with Oregon’s Jacobsen would not be so bad, either.

Both universities like to tout the success of their own events.

And for as long as both tournaments have been staged here, their popularity would be hard to doubt.

Central Oregon’s dry climate and world-class golf courses make it an obvious choice and a good draw, UO’s Fisher and OSU’s Hurd both acknowledged.

“There is not a much better place in the world to live than Central Oregon,” said Fisher, who lives in Bend. “We’re fortunate, both Oregon and Oregon State, to have a lot of our loyal boosters migrate to this area.”

DAVID BRODER

RWANDA:

Barton’s gift to Democrats WASHINGTON — he eagerness with which Democrats pounced on the foolish comment of Rep. Joe Barton, of Texas, that BP had been the victim of a White House “shakedown” tells you everything you need to know about their need to change the subject from the problems confronting the Obama administration.

For weeks, it has appeared increasingly likely that voters will use the midterm elections in November to signal their unhappiness with the lingering effects of the Great Recession, the threat of uncontrolled deficits, the stalemate in Afghanistan and the continuing tragedy in the Gulf of Mexico by inflicting serious losses on Democratic candidates.

Unless.

Unless one Republican after another steps into the limelight, apparently eager to demonstrate that however bad the Democrats look, the opposition could be worse.

The parade of horribles that began with GOP Senate nominees (borrowed from the tea party movement) in Kentucky and Nevada challenging accepted wisdom on everything from civil rights to Social Security reached a new height with Barton’s wildly mistaken decision to defend the world’s most unpopular oil company from a fictitious strong-arm assault.

Barton, a longtime advocate of the oil and gas industry, seized a microphone right after President Obama had extracted a promise from BP executives that they would create a $20 billion trust fund from which to compensate families and companies victimized by the accident on its offshore drilling platform.

While almost everyone else congratulated the president for nailing down the commitment that gave force to BP’s pledge to satisfy all legitimate claims, Barton discerned in the transaction a terrible threat to the free enterprise system, calling it a Chicago-style “shakedown.”

The leaders of the Republican minority on Capitol Hill had managed to swallow without gagging the musings of a Kentucky candidate who criticizes the Fair Housing Act of 1968 and a Nevada nominee who has problems with the Social Security Act of 1935.

But when Barton — on the very day when the BP chief executive officer was demonstrating his political ineptitude to derisive Republicans and Democrats on a House energy subcommittee — appointed himself the defense attorney for Big Oil, it was more than even the GOP leadership could tolerate.

House Minority Leader John Boehner and his lieutenants summoned the Texan to his chambers, ordered him to recant and apologize — which he promptly did.

But not before White House press secretary Robert Gibbs had issued a stern rebuke on behalf of the president, followed swiftly by virtually every Democrat on Capitol Hill in reach of a camera, a fax machine or a phone.

To hear them tell it, Barton was not a solo malefactor but the guy who had given away the secret Republican command: Go forth and pollute. We’ve got your back.

Barton was the best thing that has happened to the Democrats in months.

All of a sudden, they were not defending the undersea gusher they don’t know how to cap; they were charging that the opposition was in bed with the corporate bad guys.

Why so eager? Because in the past few days, they had read election analyst Stuart Rothenberg forecast that five of their Senate seats are leaning Republican and two others they now control are toss-ups. If they lost all of them, their Senate margin would be down to four seats.

A similar House analysis by academics Alan Abramowitz and Larry Sabato projects Republican gains of 32 to 39 seats. The latter number would be just enough to make Boehner the speaker, replacing Nancy Pelosi.

These numbers will change as the campaigns unfold. But you can see why the Democrats pounced on Barton, and why Boehner and Co. might want to hand out muzzles to their members.

a dirt-poor nation with a health plan

By Donald G. McNeil Jr. • New York Times News Service MAYANGE, Rwanda —

The maternity ward in the Mayange district health center is nothing fancy.

It has no running water, and the delivery room is little more than a pair of padded benches with stirrups. But the blue paint on the walls is fairly fresh, and the labor room beds have mosquito nets.

Inside, three generations of the Yankulije family are relaxing on one bed: Rachel, 53, her daughter Chantal Mujawimana, 22, and Chantal’s baby boy, too recently arrived in this world to have a name yet.

The little prince is the first in his line to be delivered in a clinic rather than on the floor of a mud hut.

But he is not the first with health insurance. Both his mother and grandmother have it, which is why he was born here.

Rwanda has had national health insurance for 11 years now; 92 percent of the nation is covered, and the premiums are $2 a year.

Room tax grab raises questions

M

uch to their chagrin, half a dozen Bend hoteliers were told last week they owe taxes totaling nearly $340,000.

They have the right to plead their case to city coun-

cil, but we hope they don’t need to. Councilors should start asking questions on their own.

First, assuming the hoteliers ought to pay somebody for their behavior, why is that somebody the city of Bend?

Years ago, council approved a tax break for hotels that package breakfast with their room rates. While hotels had to apply the city’s room tax to the lodging part of the bill, they didn’t have to tax the included meal.

A number of hoteliers continued to apply the room tax to food anyway and kept the proceeds for themselves.

Meanwhile, they sent taxes collected on the lodging portion of their bills to the city.

It’s inappropriate to “tax” a service in this fashion, then pocket the proceeds. But the injured party isn’t the city, which had agreed to forego that money anyway. The injured parties, rather, are the hotels’ customers, who paid a trumped-up “tax.” They have a legitimate beef with the hotels in question. But how has the hotels’ behavior harmed the city, which is now demanding money?

City Manager Eric King’s response to this question makes sense, at least in principle. For a period, he

says, the city would allow customers who were taxed improperly to apply to a city for a refund. But the audit that discovered the shortfall goes back three years. How many affected visitors are likely to bother claiming what’s likely to be a tiny refund?

Very few, we’d guess. In the end, the money wrested from hotels is likely to be spent by the city, which at one point had agreed to sacrifice that money in order to help those very same hotels.

City Council also should find out whether past city officials knew about and condoned the room-tax arrangement. They did, according to hotelier Brett Evert. Moreover, he claims, officials urged them to do it. Why? Because if the tax were discontinued, he says, the city would have needed voter approval to reinstate it. If such claims are true, the city can hardly claim the moral high ground.

Evert has said that the city’s engaged in a “witch hunt” to justify a money grab. Before agreeing to burn an important segment of the local economy at the stake, City Council should try to find out whether Evert’s right.

Endangering others E ach time a Deschutes County parent decides not to have a child vaccinated against such things as measles and whooping cough, he’s playing Russian roulette.

Worse, he’s gambling not only with the health of his own child, but with the health of children outside his family.

That’s got the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention worried. Too many Americans opt out of having their kids vaccinated these days, and the result is that measles, which was held in check for years, is making a comeback. It put in an appearance that left more than a dozen people ill at the Vancouver Winter Olympics last year.

Nor is measles the mild childhood disease older Oregonians may recall.

In fact, it is a top killer of young children worldwide, and it’s highly contagious. Consider a recent outbreak in Indiana, reported in U.S. News & World Report. The outbreak began, as most American ones do, outside the United States, when a 17-year-old picked up the disease in Romania and brought it home to a church picnic. Of the roughly 500 people who attended the outdoor picnic, only 35 had not been vaccinated. Thirty-one of them caught measles.

Here in Bend, vaccination rates are about the state average, though some schools have rates well below that, according to an article published in The Bulletin last year. Those low rates

pose a real health risk, particularly for children who must skip vaccines for health reasons. Without what’s called the herd effect — such a large percentage of a group is vaccinated that the disease cannot take hold — they’re endangered through no fault of their own.

Families of newborns, meanwhile, face a different problem. Most vaccines cannot be started until a child is two months old, and when children younger than that fall ill with whooping cough, the results can be fatal. An adult vaccine for whooping cough was developed several years ago, and now groups such as the Immunization Action Coalition suggest that pregnant women or those who just gave birth receive it. So, too, should other adults who come into close contact with a newborn.

Americans younger than their mid50s cannot recall a time when mothers panicked if a neighbor became ill with polio, when kids died of measles and whooping cough. Their lack of familiarity has let them worry about such things as vaccination-caused autism, even though no reputable study has found a link between the two. Weak vaccination laws — in Oregon, a parent can exempt a child for “philosophical” reasons — have compounded the problem, and as the uptick in measles indicates, we’re beginning to pay the price.

Oregon should lead in health reform

By Nathan Boddie, M.D. Bulletin guest columnist

O

regon recently held a lottery to enroll new patients into the Oregon Health Plan (OHP), the innovative program providing access to medical care for many in our state who otherwise could not afford corporate heath insurance. Initially the creation of Dr. John Kitzhaber, the once and likely future governor of Oregon, OHP was an audacious and successful solution to the rising number of uninsured in our state.

Unfortunately, fundIN MY ing for OHP did not keep pace with the rising costs of health care, eventually resulting in the current lottery system, which still provides access to quality care for some Oregonians but leaves 22 percent of our state uninsured. A lottery for who lives and dies, who receives lifesaving treatment and who does not, is no system for a state as great as ours with so industrious a population.

Passage of recent reform legislation is a step in the right direction. The Social Security doughnut hole will be eliminated beginning this summer so that my patients with Social Security will no longer struggle to obtain prescription medications. Small businesses in Bend and across Oregon will receive a tax credit if they provide health insurance to employees. Beginning this fall, my patients in the hospital will no longer lose insurance because they are ill nor will they be denied future coverage for pre-existing conditions.

Skeptics of the new law, understandably wary of federal bureaucracy, should not let their concerns obscure the broken system in place now.

Changes already under way will increase efficiency through competition in the free market.

Seniors will see expanded coverage for less money, not the loss of choices proposed by some fear mongers trying to spread misinformation. After full implementation, new reform regulations will actually decrease the federal deficit, someV I E W thing everyone should agree is a good plan.

Improving the current corporate insurance model is not enough, however. By 2014 there are projected to be nearly a million Oregonians without insurance and without access to medical care. We must do more in the medical profession and in state government to expand coverage.

Regional care projects using a medical home model must be enacted here in Central Oregon. By reducing duplication of care and improving efficiency, health costs will be contained. We must do more to expand OHP, remove the lottery system, and work with the federal government to properly fund this excellent system.

Finally, we must ensure proper leadership if we are to continue the important work of health reform so vital to our state. Dr. Kitzhaber is perhaps uniquely qualified for the task both as physician and creator of the original

Skeptics of the new (federal) law, understandably wary of federal bureaucracy, should not let their concerns obscure the broken system in place now.

OHP. Joyce Segers, campaigning to be our congresswoman, is a former medical professional who would ably replace the faulty representation of our current congressman, an incumbent with more ties now to Washington, D.C., than Central Oregon.

And closest to home, Judy Stiegler, our state representative, helped to create the Oregon Health Authority, a key step toward implementing the changes necessary to improve health care. We must ensure she continues her good work in the fall.

A lottery for human health no longer has a place in our state. Now that a glimmer of meaningful health reform has become law, our challenge becomes implementation and the difficult work of making sure every Oregonian has access to affordable care. We must step forward and expand coverage to those who need it most and become the leader in health reform that Oregon has been in the past.

What really matters is what Obama manages to accomplish

O

n Monday night in Ohio, a 62foot-tall statue of Jesus got hit by lightning and burned to the ground. (The adult bookstore across the street was unscathed.) Less than 12 hours later, Gen. David Petraeus — who is not God, although certain members of Congress have been known to worship at his altar — semifainted at a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing.

Then Bravo announced that the White House gate-crashers were getting a TV show. Al and Tipper remained in Splitsville. And the oil kept on spilling.

So you sort of knew from the portents that President Obama’s big Oval Office speech was not going to be a terrific game-changer. The way things had been going, the president was lucky that a man-eating pterodactyl didn’t come crashing through the window during his opening remarks.

Still, it was a disappointment. I was hoping for a call to arms, a national mission as great as the environmental disaster that inspired it. After the terrorist attack, George W. Bush could have called

the country to a grand, important new undertaking in which everyone sacrificed personal or regional advantage for the common good. The fact that he only told us to go shopping was the one unforgivable sin of his administration.

OK, also attacking the wrong country.

And creating the deficit. But I digress.

All we got from President Obama was a vague call for some sort of new energy policy. Plus a Gulf Coast Restoration Plan, an oil spill study commission, a reminder that the secretary of energy won a Nobel Prize in physics and 17 references to God, prayer, blessings or faith.

We wanted him to declare war on the oil companies! Every day it becomes clearer that these guys are even more feckless than we imagined. At the ritual Congressional lashing of CEOs this week, we learned that none of the major oil companies have any idea how to control a spill like this, and that their faux plans for handling one in the Gulf were made up of boilerplate so undigested that several had sections on protecting walruses — mammals that have not been in the area since

GAIL COLLINS the Ice Age. The way things have been going, you can’t be too careful. If the portents keep piling up, it’s easy to envision a headline like: “Lone Tourist in Pensacola Eaten by Visiting Walrus Herd.”

Obama held back on Tuesday. Then, on Wednesday, he and the BP chairman announced that the company — which is, in theory, only liable for $75 million in economic damage payments — was forgoing its dividend and setting up a $20 billion fund to compensate workers and businesses harmed by the spill.

In the negotiations, Obama said, he had stressed that for many of the small business owners, families and fishing crews, “this is not a matter of dollars and

cents, that a lot of these folks don’t have a cushion.” His brief remarks were more effective than his 18-minute effort the night before, particularly when coupled with all that cash.

“He is frustrated because he cares about the small people,” said the chairman of BP, who is Swedish. The word choice made the president sound as if he were working on an environmental disaster in Munchkinland. We are frustrated, too, and it’s possible that Obama may never be able to give the speech that will make us feel better.

That’s because it won’t get him anywhere. Unlike Bush, he has no national consensus to build upon. He’d barely finished his muted remarks on Tuesday before the House minority leader, John Boehner, accused him of exploiting the crisis “to impose a job-killing national energy tax on struggling families and small business.” Michael Steele, the Republican Party chairman, claimed that the president was “manipulating this tragic national crisis for selfish political gain.” And the ever-popular Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-

Minn., denounced the BP restitution fund as “redistribution of wealth” and “one more gateway for government control.”

As a political leader, Barack Obama seems to know what he’s doing. His unsatisfying call for a new energy policy sounded very much like the rhetoric on health care reform that used to drive Democrats nuts: open to all ideas, can’t afford inaction, if we can put a man on the moon.… But at the end of that health care slog, he wound up with the groundbreaking law that had eluded his predecessors for decades. The process of wringing it out of Congress was so slow that even when it was over it was hard to appreciate what he’d won. But win he did.

Ironic. The man we elected because we hoped his feel-good campaign speeches might translate into achievement is actually a guy who is going to achieve, even if his presidential speeches leave us feeling blah.

O What is Obama’s foreign policy?

N

ot being George W. Bush while apologizing for America’s purported sins is not a foreign

policy.

Ronald Reagan came into office with the idea of rolling back the Soviet Union. Reagan hoped that such an evil empire might collapse from its inability to match a newly confident United States.

George H.W. Bush sought to oversee a peaceful dissolution of the Soviet empire, the reunification of Germany, and a new Western-led world order that thugs such as Manuel Noriega or Saddam Hussein could not disrupt.

Bill Clinton pushed Western-inspired liberal globalization to lift the Third World out of poverty.

After 9/11, George W. Bush sought to keep America safe from another round of Islamic terrorism while promoting Middle East constitutional government as a way of weakening Islamic terrorism.

But what exactly does Barack Obama wish to accomplish abroad?

In interviews and speeches, Obama emphasizes his nontraditional background and his father’s Islamic heritage.

Apparently, he hopes that by reminding the world that he is not George W. Bush, America will be better liked.

But without a strategic vision, “Bush did it” leads nowhere — given that most of the world’s problems predated and transcend Bush. Obama doesn’t seem to understand that wanting people to like America is only a means to an end, not a policy in itself — and an especially

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON dubious means, given the character of many nations in the world today.

Nor does Obama comprehend that global tensions often reflect fundamentally different views of the human condition, rather than simple miscommunication or clumsy diplomacy — and so can’t be solved by serial apologies.

Last I heard, the Chinese communist government has not said a word about the killing of millions of its own, or about past fighting with many of its neighbors. Russia does not apologize for its bloodletting in Chechnya — or for any of the other countries it has invaded and crushed.

Only Obama’s America offers atonement, as if apologies will singularly achieve our new goal of being liked above all else. Yet when there is no upside for a country being democratic or pro-American, and not much downside for being dictatorial and anti-American, global confusion follows over the proper path that civilization should follow.

So after 16 months of the Obama presidency, we are starting to see the sort of chaos that results from America’s lack of strategic vision or advocacy of its own values.

Suddenly, allies such as democratic

Only Obama’s America offers atonement, as if apologies will singularly achieve our new goal of being liked above all else. Yet when there is no upside for a country being democratic or pro-American ... global confusion follows over the proper path that civilization should follow.

Colombia, Israel and India cannot count on our support in their rivalries with aggressive neighbors, while overt enemies such as Iran, Hamas and North Korea wonder whether a brief window has opened for aggrandizement without repercussions.

In the Middle East, Israel is being tested as never before by Hamas, Hezbollah, Syria and now Turkey — under the cloud of a soon-to-be-nuclear Iran.

Apparently, they all think that suddenly the U.S. is no longer Israel’s protector, and the opportunity for upping the ante should not be missed.

North Korea warns that Seoul might be “a sea of flame,” while jittery Japan cannot seem to stabilize its government.

Turkey is starting to sound more like the old Ottoman sultanate eager for a showdown with the West than a NATO ally.

Along with Brazil and Russia, Turkey is seeking to water down American efforts to stop Iranian nuclear proliferation. Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez now insults an obsequious Secretary of State Hillary Clinton as much as he once did a tough-talking George W. Bush. In fact, the more we reached out in 2009 to Iran, Russia, Syria, Turkey and Venezuela,

the more they all now seem hostile — suggesting magnanimity is often seen by such governments as appeasement that in turn encourages aggression.

A cash-flush China in turn wonders why it should finance record U.S. borrowing for entitlements it cannot afford for its own people. We seem to gratuitously offend our oldest and best ally, the British, in novel ways each week.

The European Union is in a meltdown, and many of its key members suspect that America no longer sees itself as a leader of shared Western interests. Or that if it does, it is now too broke to do much anyway.

In all these crises, trashing George W. Bush, reaching out to enemies and taking friends for granted is not proving to be a coherent foreign policy. Instead, it is a prescription for a disaster not seen since 1979, when another messianic American president thought he could charm the world by making our enemies like us.

And we all know how that ended.

The myth of gender bias in academia social usefulness.

You can argue how much of this difference is due to biology and how much to society, but could you really affect it by sending scientists and engineers off to the workshops mandated by the bill now in Congress? Christina Hoff Sommers, a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute and the editor of a recent book “The Science on Women and Science” (AEI Press), says the workshops’ main effect would be to provide jobs for researchers and advocates promoting a myth of gender bias.

She criticizes the National Science Foundation for sustaining this industry over the past decade with more than $135 million from its Advance program promoting gender equity.

While some projects were worthwhile, Sommers says, the science grants were also used to stage “The Vagina Monologues,” develop a game called Gender Bias Bingo and present workshops featuring skits in which arrogant men mistreat female colleagues who are clearly their intellectual superiors.

By John Tierney The New York Times

I

f the Senate passes legislation establishing regular “workshops to enhance gender equity” in academic science, what exactly would scientists and engineers do at them? The legislation, already approved by the House, is a little vague beyond directing researchers and heads of academic departments to participate in “activities that increase the awareness of the existence of gender bias.”

But let me venture one prediction: There will be lots of talk about the male chauvinists on the Swedish Medical Research Council who awarded 20 postdoctoral fellowships in 1994.

The analysis of those fellowships, published in Nature in 1997, is the fundamental text of the gender-bias movement, cited over and over at conferences, in papers and in lobbying materials.

If you’re looking for evidence of discrimination against female scientists, this article seems to be the one clear, unambiguously scandalous finding.

The article was written by Christine Wenneras and Agnes Wold, two of the unsuccessful applicants for those Swedish postdoctoral fellowships. After learning that male applicants were much more likely than female applicants to succeed, they sued to get the data behind the decisions and then analyzed the 114 applicants’ publication records. They concluded that a woman had to be two and a half times as productive as a man to receive the same rating of competence.

The shocking findings made headlines, but how representative was that one Swedish study of 114 applicants?

At that time, female applicants to the National Science Foundation were succeeding just as often as men were, and much larger studies since then have repeatedly failed to find gender bias.

When two Swedish researchers, Ulf Sandstrom and Martin Hallsten, did a follow-up study analyzing the Swedish medical fellowships awarded in 2004, they found that female applicants were actually rated more favorably than comparable male applicants. In 2005 a large study, conducted by the RAND Corporation, concluded that female applicants for research grants from federal agencies in the United States typically got as much money as male applicants.

In 2008, an analysis of more than 2,000 grant proposals in Australia reported that female applicants did as well as males, and that applicants received similar ratings from both male and female reviewers. Last year two researchers, Herbert W. Marsh of Oxford and Lutz Bornmann of the University of Zurich, reported on an analysis of more than 350,000 grant proposals in eight countries. They found “no effect of the applicant’s gender on the peer review of their grant proposals.”

Also last year a task force of the National Academy of Sciences concluded from its investigation of 500 science

departments that by and large, men and women “enjoyed comparable opportunities within the university.” The task force reported that at major research universities, female candidates “had a better chance of being interviewed and receiving offers than male job candidates had.”

The gap that exists So why are women still such a minority in math-oriented sciences? The most balanced answer I’ve seen comes from two psychologists at Cornell, Stephen Ceci and Wendy Williams — who, by the way, are married and have a daughter with a graduate degree in engineering. After reviewing hundreds of studies in their new book, “The Mathematics of Sex” (Oxford), they conclude that discrimination is no longer an important factor in keeping out women.

They find consistent evidence for biological differences in math aptitude, particularly in males’ advantage in spatial ability and in their disproportionate presence at the extreme ends of the distribution curve on math tests (the topic of last week’s column). But given all the progress made in math by girls, who now take more math and science classes than boys and get better grades, Ceci and Williams say that differences in aptitude are not the primary cause of the gender gap in academic science.

Instead, they point to different personal preferences and choices of men and women, including the much-analyzed difference in the reaction to parenthood. When researchers at Vander-

BP isn’t the real enemy in oil battle

T

hese days we are transfixed by the struggle between BP and the U.S. government. This is a familiar conflict — between a multinational company trying to make a profit and the government trying to regulate the company and hold it accountable.

But this conflict is really a family squabble. It takes place amid a much larger conflict, and in this larger conflict both BP and the U.S. government are on the same team.

The larger conflict began with the end of the Cold War. That ideological dispute settled the argument over whether capitalism was the best economic system. But it did not settle the argument over whether democratic capitalism was the best political-social-economic system. Instead, it left the world divided into two general camps.

On the one side are those who believe in democratic capitalism — ranging from the United States to Denmark to Japan.

People in this camp generally believe that businesses are there to create wealth and raise living standards while governments are there to regulate when necessary and enforce a level playing field. Both government officials like President Barack Obama and the private sector workers like the BP executives fall into this camp.

On the other side are those who reject democratic capitalism, believing it leads to chaos, bubbles, exploitations and crashes. Instead, they embrace state capitalism. People in this camp run Russia, China, Saudi Arabia, Iran, Venezuela and many other countries.

Many scholars have begun to analyze state capitalism. One of the clearest and most comprehensive treatments is “The End of the Free Market” by Ian Bremmer.

Bremmer points out that under state capitalism, authoritarian governments use markets “to create wealth that can be directed as political officials see fit.” The ultimate motive, he continues, “is not economic (maximizing growth) but political (maximizing the state’s power and the leadership’s chances of survival).” Under state capitalism, market enterprises exist to earn money to finance the ruling class.

The contrast is clearest in the energy sector. In the democratic capitalist world we have oil companies, like Exxon Mobil, BP and Royal Dutch Shell, that make money for shareholders.

In the state capitalist world there are government-run enterprises like Gazprom, Petrobras, Saudi Aramco, Petronas, Petroleos de Venezuela, China National Petroleum Corp. and the National Iranian Oil Co. These companies create wealth for the political cliques, and they, in turn, have the power of the state behind them.

With this advantage, state energy companies have been absolutely crushing the private-sector energy companies.

In America, we use the phrase Big Oil to describe Exxon Mobil, BP, Royal Dutch Shell and others. But that just shows how parochial we are. In fact, none of these private companies make it on a list of the world’s top 13 energy companies. A generation ago, the biggest multinationals produced well more than half of the world’s oil and gas. But now, according to Bremmer, they produce just 10 percent of the world’s oil and gas and hold only about 3 percent of the world’s reserves.

The rivalry between democratic capitalism and state capitalism is not like the rivalry between capitalism and communism. It is an interdependent rivalry.

State capitalist enterprises invest heavily in democratic capitalist enterprises (but they tend not to invest in each other).

Both sides rely on each other in interlocking trade networks.

Nonetheless, there is rivalry.

We in the democratic world tend to assume state capitalism can’t prosper forever. Innovative companies can’t thrive unless there’s also a free exchange of ideas.

A high-tech economy requires more creative destruction than an authoritarian government can tolerate. Cronyism will inevitably undermine efficiency.

That’s all true. But state capitalism may be the only viable system in low-trust societies, in places where decentralized power devolves into gangsterism.

We in the democratic world have no right to be sanguine. State capitalism taps into deep nationalist passions and offers psychic security for people who detest the hurly-burly of modern capitalism.

So I hope that as they squabble, Obama and BP keep at least one eye on the larger picture. We need healthy private energy companies. We also need to gradually move away from oil and gas — the products that have financed the rise of aggressive state capitalism.

cracy (abroad) if you don’t know anything about it?”

Only through a deeper understanding of how our society has evolved can we begin to envision ways to change it for the better, Fuller says.

“The first thing we must understand is that issues such as gay rights and women’s rights” are not matters that concern only small, marginal groups.

“All of us should be interested in resolving them. If we don’t, the whole democracy is diminished.”

In her audacious, extraordinary fourth novel, “A Visit from the Goon Squad,” Jennifer Egan uses the pop-music business as a prism to examine the heedless pace of modern life, generational impasses, and the awful gravity of age and entropy.

The spine of the book is Bennie Salazar, a record-label owner frustrated with trying to create meaningful music in the age of Autotune: “He worked tirelessly, feverishly, to get things right, to stay on top, make songs that people would love and buy and download as ringtones (and steal, of course) — above all, to satisfy the multinational crude-oil extractors he’d sold his label to five years ago.”

Still, Bennie isn’t happy with the music he’s producing: “Too clear, too clean. The problem was precision, perfection; the problem was digitization, which sucked the life out of everything that got smeared through its microscopic mesh. Film, photography, music: dead. An aesthetic holocaust! Bennie knew better than to say these things aloud.”

We follow Bennie back to his teenage years as a mohawked punk musician in San Francisco, moshing at the Mabuhay Gardens. We even venture with him into the future, where marketing is almost exclusively viral and music is promoted by word of tweet to an alarmingly young target audience.

Here is the office worker of tomorrow: “Lulu was in her early twenties, a graduate student at Barnard and Bennie’s full-time assistant: a living embodiment of the new ‘handset’ employee: paperless, deskless, commute-

less, and theoretically omnipresent, though Lulu appeared to be ignoring a constant chatter of handset beeps and burps.”

Bennie and his travails are but a small part of “A Visit from the Goon Squad.” The book shifts constantly over four decades and among a daunting cast of characters, most of whom have some connection, however tenuous, to the music business and to each other. The primary relationship for the majority of these people is with their psychiatrist.

Egan, a 1985 University of Pennsylvania graduate and author of the much-praised novel “The Keep” (2006), introduces us to the burnouts, the sellouts, and the emotionally handicapped. Her focus is on the energy, recklessness, and vanity of youth. But she offers snapshots of her large cast in many stages of their lives, even dotage.

When Lou Klein, a legendary music producer, is wheeled out in a hospital bed to his scenic pool deck overlooking Los Angeles, you can practically see the wake of human debris caused by a lifetime of his decadent indulgence.

“A Visit from the Goon Squad” is fascinating for its daring scope and fractured narrative, but along the way, Egan crafts some brilliant scenes, including a staged PR photo op for a genocidal dictator, a rock star on safari in Africa, and a disturbing magazine profile of a starlet.

Despite such curious breaks, “A Visit from the Goon Squad” is a rich and rewarding novel.

Egan delivers a cautionary tale about the commodification and carelessness of our society.

The music business is an effective framing device for her to explore the ways life branches and flows in random but remarkable patterns, the ways in which we fortify and tear at each other.

Old NYC enlivens gripping crime novel “A Curtain Falls”

by Stefanie Pintoff (Minotaur, 400 pgs., $24.99)

By Oline H. Cogdill Sun Sentinel

Historical New York City never ceases to be rich fodder for some of crime fiction’s most intriguing plots. In her second novel, Stefanie Pintoff shows how the best in historical fiction not only unveils our past, but shows how our modern concerns evolved.

Set in 1906, Pintoff’s “A Curtain Falls” depicts a New York City in transition and the beginnings of modern crime detection. Her comparison to Caleb Carr is well earned, although Pintoff shows a wider range and deeper affinity for storytelling than the author of “The Alienist.” Pintoff’s meticulous research captures the heart of the era but her detailed characters and gripping plot about

greed, jealousy and obsession for fame set “A Curtain Falls” on a higher plane.

“A Curtain Falls” revolves around the vibrant Broadway theater scene of 1906. New York police detective Simon Ziele is asked to look into the death of a chorus girl found on a Manhattan stage dressed in the costume of the leading lady. The only clue is a cryptic note found near the body. Teaming up with criminologist Alistair Sinclair, the pair discovers a series of similar murders. But the police don’t know about this because Charles Frohman, the wealthy owner of several theaters, is afraid the news will hurt ticket sales.

“A Curtain Falls” takes readers from the vibrant Broadway scene to the busy newsroom of the New York Times, where new Hammond typewriters are lauded as a progressive step for newspapers. Horses and cars

jockey for position on the New York streets. And people still can’t get used to calling Longacre Square by its new name — Times Square. “Two years wasn’t enough time to change long-held habits,” Simon notes.

Pintoff nails the historical aspects with aplomb while giving close attention to characters. The people who inhabit “A Curtain Falls” give glimpses into how New Yorkers lived at the turn of the 20th century. “Theater syndicate owner” Frohman’s controls not just the buildings and plays but his staff’s lives, refusing to allow his actresses to walk down Broadway. “It had to be Fifth Avenue, because image was everything,” says a staffer. The police’s reliance and, at times, skepticism about fingerprints and new crime detection methods adds a believable level of conflict.

Pintoff’s debut “In the Shadow of Gotham” won the 2009 St. Martin’s Press/Mystery Writers of America Best First Mystery Award and, more recently, an Edgar Award for best debut.

Her high standards continue in “A Curtain Falls.”

Author Barbara Ehrenreich’s latest book — “Bright-Sided: How the Relentless Promotion of Positive Thinking Has Undermined America” — takes a look at positive thinking and its effects.

For Ehrenreich, realism beats positive thinking Author says being cheerful isn’t key to beating cancer

By Ellen Warren

course you can try to do something about whatever it is going on, in however a small way.

Write your congresspeople. Stuff like that. And that just shows the extreme fragility of their position if you can’t let contradictory data in because you have no way of dealing with it.

Chicago Tribune

Her breast cancer diagnosis introduced writer Barbara Ehrenreich to an unfamiliar world of positive thinking — pink ribbons, pink teddy bears and even the idea that cancer is a “gift” that will make you a better person.

The author (“Nickel and Dimed: On (Not) Getting By in America”), who has a doctorate in cell biology, was appalled by the notion that a cheerful attitude is a key to beating this dreaded disease.

What followed was an exploration of the false promises of positive thinking. These included the mantra of motivators, life coaches, mega-church pastors and self-help gurus that if you think positively, whatever you want — a great job, lots of money, good health — will be yours.

In a phone interview, edited and condensed here, Ehrenreich talked about her latest book, “Bright-Sided: How the Relentless Promotion of Positive Thinking Has Undermined America” (Metropolitan Books, $23).

Q:

Did you ever want to stand up and scream when you attended those “think positive” success seminars?

No, I didn’t want to stand up and draw attention to myself because I felt like such a freak. If I were discovered to be a nonbeliever, God knows what would happen to me.

A:

Q:

Have you received hate mail because you’re not the positive, sunny person the true believers think you should be?

No, it’s very much the opposite. People saying, “Thank God someone said it. Now I feel sane.” Some of the kinds of people who are likely to write are 1. Cancer victims 2. People who have been laid off and were not getting anywhere and are sick of being told to be happy about it and 3. People who have actually lost their jobs because they weren’t positive enough.

That is quite a category. It doesn’t mean they were sullen or surly at work. It could mean they didn’t get sufficiently into the high-five culture.

A:

Q:

I was wounded by the idea that these “think positive” types say never again read a newspaper.

(Laughs) The last thing the newspaper industry needs.

I thought the first few times I heard that, it was some idiosyncratic extreme. But noooo. You encounter that again and again: “Why are you reading the news?

You can’t do anything about it, and it’s all negative.”

The idea you can’t do anything about it is the opposite of what I would call positive anything. Of

A:

Find Your Dream Home Every Saturday In Real Estate

Q: A:

I’m sure your critics ask, “If not positive thinking, what?”

I say the alternative is not negative thinking. It can be just as delusional to think everything is going to turn out wrong and that everything you undertake is going to fail or be no fun or whatever. The sort of pale word for this (the alternative to positive thinking) is realism.

Q:

You say you decided to look into the cult of happy out of a combo of anger and curiosity. Did you uncover any surprises in your research?

How widespread the ideology of positive thinking is in America. There’s almost no problem for which positive thinking has not been proposed as a solution.

A:

Q: A:

You hang some of the blame on Oprah?

She’s not the only one, let me put it that way. Her show has promoted one kind of guru after another or motivator, or something. But you could also put some of the blame on Larry King and Ellen DeGeneres and others that I’m not aware of.

Q: A:

You spent some time in these mega-churches.

What was that like?

I was just kind of bewildered. They have no images of Jesus, no religious icons of any kind anywhere. Kind of made me think, “Well, if you think too much about Jesus, that could be a downer. Poor guy, tortured to death, so why even have any reference to that to bring people down?”

9/11 heightens emotions in marital tale “The Lakeshore Limited”

by Sue Miller (Knopf, 287 pgs., $25.95)

By Steve Giegerich St. Louis Post-Dispatch

It’s been said about Vietnam that we were all there. Assuming you happened to be alive at the time.

The same, it should also be said, holds true of 9/11, a common denominator in recalling where we were that morning, how we spent the remainder of the day, or loved ones and friends who boarded planes or went to work and never returned.

The terrorist attacks of Sept.

11, 2001, don’t dominate “The Lakeshore Limited,” Sue Miller’s 11th novel.

Rather, 9/11 dances on the periphery as Miller augments her reputation as one of our most trenchant observers and interpreters of the human psyche.

The book takes its title from the famed Chicago-to-New York railroad line of days gone

by. It is also the title a middling Boston playwright and the novel’s protagonist, Billy, has given a play that serves as a second backdrop to the novel.

The play lays bare the tortured emotions of an adulterous husband as he waits to learn whether his wife is among the casualties of a terrorist attack at Chicago’s Union Station.

The playwright Billy had lost her lover, Gus, who was aboard one of the planes that departed Boston’s Logan Airport on the morning of Sept. 11.

“The Lakeshore Limited,” then, is an allegory. Billy, though faithful, was not in love with Gus. For Gus’s sister, Leslie, the play “The Lakeshore Limited” is an unwelcome revelation.

Leslie had believed Billy and Gus were perfectly matched.

The story unfolds in alternate chapters, each a flashback written in the distinct voice of Miller’s disparate protagonists.

Complementing Billy and Leslie are other characters, and

lurking on the edge (but without a voice) is Gus. And what Miller calls “the topic always at hand between” Leslie and Billy: 9/11.

As “Lakeshore” deftly exposes the underpinnings of loss, redemption and resiliency, it slowly becomes clear that Miller has pulled off a rare literary accomplishment as the author of a pragmatic love story.

Q:

Not to get all positive on you, but one could make the argument that if you hadn’t been diagnosed with breast cancer and been exposed to what you call “the bright side of cancer,” you wouldn’t have written this exposé of positive thinking.

If you gave me an option, I would just say let’s skip the cancer and I wouldn’t have bothered with this book.

Anybody who thinks that cancer is a gift, I just want them to take me off their Christmas list.

Rwanda Continued from F1 Sunny Ntayomba, an editorial writer for The New Times, a newspaper based in the capital, Kigali, is aware of the paradox: His nation, one of the world’s poorest, insures more of its citizens than the world’s richest does.

He met an American college student passing through last year, and found it “absurd, ridiculous, that I have health insurance and she didn’t,” he said, adding: “And if she got sick, her parents might go bankrupt. The saddest thing was the way she shrugged her shoulders and just hoped not to fall sick.”

Rwanda’s coverage is no fancier than the Mayange maternity ward.

But it covers the basics. The most common causes of death — diarrhea, pneumonia, malaria, malnutrition, infected cuts — are treated.

Local health centers usually have all the medicines on the World Health Organization’s list of essential drugs (nearly all are generic copies of name-brand drugs) and have laboratories that can do routine blood and urine analyses, along with tuberculosis and malaria tests.

Rachel Mujawimana gave birth with a nurse present, vastly increasing the chances that she and her baby would survive. Had there been complications, they could have gone by ambulance to a district hospital with a doctor.

“In the old days, we came here only when the mother had problems,” her mother said. “Now the village health worker orders you not to deliver at home.”

Just the basics Since the insurance, known as health mutuals, rolled out, average life expectancy has risen to 52 from 48, despite a continuing AIDS epidemic, according to Dr. Agnes Binagwaho, permanent secretary of Rwanda’s Ministry of Health. Deaths in childbirth and from malaria are down sharply, she added.

Of course, many things that are routine in the United States, like MRI scans and dialysis, are generally unavailable. Cancer, strokes and heart attacks are often death sentences. The whole country, with a population of 9.7 million, has one neurosurgeon and three cardiologists. (By contrast, New York City has 8 million people; at a national softball tournament for neurosurgeons in Central Park 10 days ago, local hospitals fielded five teams.)

(In another contrast with the United States, obesity and its medical complications are almost a non-issue. Visitors to Rwanda are quickly struck by how thin everyone on the street is. And it is not necessarily from malnutrition; even the president, Paul Kagame, a teetotaling ascetic, is spectral.)

General surgery is done, but waits can be weeks long. A few lucky patients needing advanced surgery may be treated free by teams of visiting doctors from the United States, Cuba, Australia and elsewhere, but those doctors are not always around. Occasionally, the Health Ministry will pay for a patient to go to Kenya, South Africa or even India for treatment.

800,000 Rwandans officially rated as “poorest of the poor.”

In a nation of poor farmers, who is officially poorest is decided by village councils. They weigh assets like land, goats, bicycles and radios and determine whether a hut has a costly tin roof or just straw.

“People know their neighbors here,” said Felicien Rwagasore, a patient coordinator at the Mayange clinic. “They do not make mistakes.”

Making every Rwandan pay something is part of Kagame’s ambitious plan to push his people toward more self-reliance and, with luck, eventually into prosperity. The country has been

called “Africa’s Singapore.” It has clean streets and little crime, and each month everyone does one day of community service, like planting trees. Private enterprise is championed, and Kagame has been relentless about punishing corrupt officials. In the name of suppressing remarks that might revive the hatreds that spawned the 1994 genocide, his critics say, he suppresses normal political dissent, too.

Still not cheap enough A more practical obstacle to creating a health insurance system, however, is that most of the world’s poor, including Rwan-

da’s, resist what they see as the unthinkably bizarre idea of paying in advance for something they may never get.

“If people pay the $2 and then don’t get sick all year, they sometimes want their money back,” said Anja Fischer, an adviser to the health ministry from GTZ, the German government’s semiindependent aid agency.

The copays can also be overwhelming. Even $5 for a Caesarean section can be too much for people as close to the edge as the Yankulijes, who live by growing beans and sweet potatoes and wear American castoffs (Yankulije’s T-shirt read “Wolverines Football”).

Many live by barter and cannot scrape together even $2 in coins, said Dr. Damas Dukundane, who works in a poor rural area. Since the government accepts only cash, he said, his patients sometimes go to traditional healers, who could be dangerous quacks but will accept goats or chickens.

As a result of all these factors, Rwanda is a patchwork of small clinics, some richer or better-run than others. Mayange’s, for example, gets donations and guidance from the Access Project founded by Josh Ruxin, a Columbia professor of public health who now lives in Kigali.

For example, the computer that prints the insurance cards has a Webcam on it. Previously, Ruxin said, for insurance costing $2, villagers had to bring in photographs that had cost them $1 or more.

A clearer example of how the system overburdens the poor, he said, was the fact that the wealthiest Rwandans pay the same $2 that the rural poor do.

“It’s totally insane that my

Still, Binagwaho said, Rwanda can offer the United States one lesson about health insurance: “Solidarity — you cannot feel happy as a society if you don’t organize yourself so that people won’t die of poverty.”

The answer is: It can’t. Not without outside help.

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF Minorities hard hit by foreclosure crisis WASHINGTON — About 2.5 million homeowners have lost their homes to foreclosure in the housing crisis so far, and black and Latino borrowers have been disproportionately affected, according to a report released Friday by a nonprofit research group.

The study by the Center for Responsible Lending was based on an analysis of government and industry data on millions of loans issued between 2005 and 2008 — the height of the housing boom.

It found that whites made up the majority of foreclosures completed between 2007 and 2009, about 56 percent, but that minority communities were affected more.

While about 4.5 percent of white borrowers lost their homes to foreclosure during that period, black and Latino borrowers had a 7.9 percent and 7.7 percent foreclosure rate, respectively.

Also in housing news, the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 4.75 percent last week with an average 0.7 point, up from 4.72 percent the week before, according to results of Freddie Mac’s Primary Mortgage Market Survey released Thursday. Last year at this time, the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 5.38 percent.

Investors shy away from low-yield CDs The amount of money in bank certificates of deposit has fallen to a four-year low, a casualty of record low interest rates that have lasted much longer than many savers may have expected.

About $100 billion has flowed out of CDs this year alone, and the runoff has totaled about $400 billion since the end of 2008, according to data compiled by the Fed’s regional bank in St. Louis.

The average money market deposit account pays interest at a 0.41 percent annualized rate, according to market research firm Informa Research Services, which surveys 3,500 banks, thrifts and credit unions weekly.

By contrast, the average one-year CD now yields 0.90 percent. The average sixmonth CD yields 0.63 percent.

REAL ESTATE

‘Shadow inventory’ — term evokes risk, but how much?

By Andrew Moore The Bulletin

If you read real estate blogs, financial news sites or housing industry reports, there’s a good chance you have heard the term “shadow inventory.”

It’s a nebulous term that, for some, implies that lenders are sitting on properties and not putting them up for sale for fear of flooding the market and further depressing home prices — a charge lenders deny.

For others, it describes the record

C O N S I G N M E N T

number of homes in the foreclosure process that are lurking over the market and will eventually go up for sale.

And still a third definition classifies shadow inventory as the glut of homes that could flood the market when anxious homeowners who have held pat during the downturn attempt to sell their homes when real estate prices pick up again.

While the term may encompass different meanings, it is likely to have one clear outcome, according to industry

experts: a short-term decrease in home prices that threatens to stall a housing recovery.

“The biggest problem for the housing industry is the huge supply of homes still on the market,” said a June 7 report on U.S. housing released by the financial research firm Standard & Poor’s.

The report cautions that while inventory is high, it “excludes the ‘shadow inventory’ that will still hit the market.”

Rescue Consignment store manager Callie Bonnell organizes some of the store’s inventory recently. “I’ve got to say women here are clothes horses, and we get great clothing in here every day,” Bonnell says.

By Penny Nakamura For The Bulletin

A sluggish economy usually means sagging or lackluster sales for clothing retailers, but that hasn’t been the case for Central Oregon consignment stores selling used women’s clothing.

Business is booming, and six Bend consignment store owners say they credit a glossy brochure they recently created — “The Alternative Shopping Guide to Bend, OR” — that helps shoppers find their stores. The guide details what each store specializes in, whether it’s clothing for ju-

niors or misses, upscale or casual.

“The brochure has been so helpful; I refer my shoppers to these other shops almost every day,” said Kearney Street Boutique consignment store owner Shelly Lowen, who says each shop is unique and has a different fashion focus, so they don’t have to feel too competitive. “The new brochure has been very helpful with foot traffic because of the map inside it. People are very pleased. I get a lot of tourists coming in. It’s becoming destination shopping.”

Area needs to bridge skills divide

W

ith unemployment remaining stubbornly high in Central Oregon, it seems counterintuitive that some employers are having trouble finding qualified applicants for certain positions. It points to broader problems in the area’s economy that area business leaders are trying to address through higher education and training programs.

“We have had an abundance of applicants, but have had a shortage of qualified applicants,” said Brad Kennedy, vice president of operations at SisTech Manufacturing Inc., in Bend, which does contract manufacturing and electronic assembly on high-tech components that require particular attention to detail. With business trending toward double the work SisTech did last year, Kennedy needs two more assembly technicians who can solder, but not just any type of soldering. He resorted to advertising online in Portland, Las Vegas, Los Angeles and Boise, Idaho, for people who can solder tiny surfacemount and through-hole components on printed circuit boards — detail work that requires soldering under a microscope.

Speaking from his spotless facility, Kennedy lamented that he couldn’t find local help meeting his criteria. He buys $18 test kits for applicants to solder in a 30-minute timed test and estimates he’s gone through $500 to $600 in kits the past year looking for two more people to join his seven-person operation. He’s also encountered some people who apparently prefer collecting unemployment to working, citing one applicant who said if he wasn’t paid $16 per hour, he could make more staying home.

Keith Manufacturing Co. in Madras, whose products include Walking Floor conveyor systems, also has noticed an applicant pool that doesn’t seem as deep as would be expected.

“You would think it would be a lot easier in this economy” to find the right workers, said Mark Foster, president and CEO. Some people also seek more money than the $12 to $15 per hour the company has offered, plus benefits, for some of its jobs, even though the applicants lack skills, he noted. The company hired someone from the Willamette Valley who was the best candidate to emerge in a recent search.

Keith, like other employers, is being more selective in its hiring and is looking for more diversified skills as more people are asked to do more things, which also may limit applicants.

There are certainly some people who are gaming the unemployment system, collecting money without wanting to work. As Oregon Employment Department spokesman Craig Spivey said, “We would be naive if we said that that doesn’t happen.” The department checks as best it can to ensure claimants are available to work, actively seeking it and following up on job referrals. But with more than 200,000 people unemployed, an outmanned state staff does the best it can to follow up, Spivey said.

For those who don’t want to work, many more do want jobs but need more skills. That’s where Economic Development for Central Oregon and area schools come into play. To help workers, and current and future companies who need skilled people, EDCO recently started a higher education focus group to learn what firms need from schools in training and education and will seek colleges, technical schools and others to provide that, said Jon Stark, manager of Redmond Economic Development Inc., which is under EDCO’s umbrella.

Oregon State University-Cascades Campus and Central Oregon Community College already are responding, OSU with an engineering degree program and COCC with a planned technology education center in Redmond. More such training will be needed.

Janice Chandler, human resources manager for Redmond’s PCC Schlosser, a titanium casting company in the aerospace industry, said the company is fortunate to have a large parent firm from which to draw skilled workers. It also has close ties with certain engineering programs that train industry-specific skills. Schools and industry need to work together constantly to ensure training is changing to meet industry’s evolving needs, she said. “That’s a living, breathing process,” Chandler explained.

Area leaders appear focused on doing that, which will benefit companies, workers and the economy long term.

Post-housing boom, more cold feet Sellers attached to their homes; shoppers feel anxiety, pressure

By Penelope Green New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — During the residential real estate boom, in the seller’s market that once was — do you remember it? — the wildly high returns and the low inventory meant snap decisions and swifter deals. There was no dithering, no backing out; no room, really, for second or third thoughts. There were attendant stresses and ruts along the path to selling a home or buying one.

But more often than not, a deal was done, for better or worse.

Today, with credit unfrozen and prices still low, some home sellers and shoppers are having a change of heart, in many cases at the 11th hour — a course swivel that stuns all involved.

It might look like a failure to launch or an inability to pull the trigger. But as houses and apartments have become “homes” again, as opposed to “real estate,” all the complicated and powerful feelings people associate with their homes — “the place you store your memories,” as Kit Yarrow, professor of psychology and business at Golden Gate University put it — have space again to bloom and, sometimes, entangle.

All it needed was a makeover Late last spring, Jed Schwartz had a change of heart and called his broker, Lisa Conway, a senior vice president at Halstead in Manhattan. As he tells it, Schwartz, an information technology manager, and his wife, Lee, a retired teacher, had arrived at a familiar turning point: Their daughter was at college, and they thought it might be time to shake the tree a bit.

They’d been living in their Greenwich Village apartment for over 20 years and had the clutter to show for it. What would it feel like to live somewhere else? They had a place in the Berkshires, and a new home on the Upper West Side would shorten that commute. They had always loved Park Slope, Brooklyn, and perhaps they could have more space there. “We were sort of opening our minds,” Schwartz said.

When they met with Conway, she said she couldn’t list the 925square-foot two-bedroom apartment until it had been redone: the wall-to-wall carpeting ripped up; the floors refinished; the walls painted a crisp white. “It was like Victorian meets early hippie,” Conway said. “It needed to be updated.”

She worked hard to stage the place, shopping with Schwartz at the Door Store, directing that a sectional couch be cut in half, that the Schwartzes prune their belongings way down. And when they were finished, all three agreed that the place looked wonderful. In mid-May, Conway listed

the apartment for $879,000; last week, when she called to schedule an open house, Schwartz said that he and his wife had decided to stay.

“We thought we needed a broker,” Schwartz said. “We just needed a decorator.”

Conway added: “I did too good a job.”

A month earlier, and farther uptown, Cornelius Dufallo and Amy Kauffman, concert violinists with a 3-year-old daughter, had been ready to sign a contract for the sale of their bright two-bedroom apartment on the Upper West Side when they, too, had a change of heart. Their broker, Francisco Menendez, a vice president for sales at Barak Realty, had brought in a professional stager who recommended accent pillows, rearranging furniture, that sort of thing. And they had committed buyers, a couple eager to take advantage of the $8,000 stimulus tax break that expired April 30.

But, Dufallo said: “We panicked.

We just realized we were about to throw away a really good thing.”

Why the jitters?

Yarrow, who studies consumer behavior, called the reactions “wedding jitters,” explaining the push-me pull-you effect of a squirrelly economy. “People are making long-term commitments, and they have limited vision into the future,” she said. “That’s what the market is giving us right now.

Fear of loss is super powerful to consumers — that fear of losing your house, or your money, is keeping them jittery a lot longer.

It makes sense that people will think a lot longer about selling their house, even pulling out at the last minute.”

By the end of last year, Amy Rea, an associate at Halstead, had four deals evaporate when the sellers (all, coincidentally, single parents with small children, three in the same Upper West Side building) realized that the homes they were in, while small, were just fine, thank you.

Unfortunately, it took the process of preparing their apartments for sale for these owners to realize that the value of their homes wasn’t just monetary. (In the case of one woman Rea represented on the Upper East Side, there was a full video tour, weeks of advertising and the attendant costs, in the thousands of dollars, and an accepted offer.)

“It wasn’t so much the market, but the economy,” Rea said, indicating that in each case, the single parent felt pinched by work and family responsibilities, “each one in the end figuring that there’s no place like home.” She added: “What are you going to do? I wanted each one to be happy. After all, I’m a single parent, too.”

The woman on the Upper East

ty, N.J. She showed 68 houses in the low $100,000 range to a couple who were galvanized by the tax credit. “They were on the deadline, and at the last minute we found them the perfect home,” Picardi-Kenyon said. “Then they decided they didn’t want to be pressured into buying because of the tax credit. They didn’t want to be forced to buy! I burned more in gasoline than I would have earned in commission.”

Picardi-Kenyon said the couple wanted to keep shopping with her but she delivered what she calls “the talk.”

“I told them we’d come to the end of our relationship,” she said. “I wished them the best and walked away. They still e-mail me, and I don’t respond. It’s all about tough love.”

Robert Wright / New York Times News Service

Amy Kauffman and Cornelius Dufallo sit with their daughter Leah at the apartment that they decided not to sell on New York’s Upper West Side. They had committed buyers. But, Dufallo said: “We panicked. We just realized we were about to throw away a really good thing.”

Side, Rea said, was living in a one-bedroom apartment with a 2-year-old and planning to move to a bigger space in a different neighborhood. She accepted an offer that was $35,000 below the asking price of $525,000, but before the contract was signed, she called Rea to say she had changed her mind. “It was a very short phone call,” said Rea, who learned the full story behind the decision days later. “I think she realized her job was a dead end, and that she would have to go back to school. Better to size down and suck it in and stay where she was comfortable, and in a good school district.”

Rea is philosophical. “You have to be,” she said, noting that in five years of sales (and 11 years in the business), she had never had a deal unravel before last year.

What really makes brokers crazy, though, are the shoppers who never pull the trigger — and, by all accounts, they have been out in droves over the last 12 months.

Social psychologists have shown that too much choice can paralyze a consumer. Certainly, the flood of inventory in the last year, the low prices and the low interest rates have created a Chinese menu effect of too many options that can cause some would-be buyers to freeze.

Unsure buyers, too Paradoxically, the $8,000 tax credit has confounded many would-be buyers. In March, Tom Thornton, a real estate agent in Austin, Texas, was contacted by two different 30-year-old male shoppers drawn into the market by the tax credit, but who

“The Alternative Shopping Guide to Bend, OR” was created by six Bend consignment stores to help attract customers, with a map inside to bring in foot traffic. “There is definitely power in numbers and it’s really a no-brainer for us to come together and do this brochure,” says Rescue Consignment store owner Angela Dietrich, who thought up the brochure.

Foursquare tries to carve a niche

Clothing Continued from G1 The brochure was the brainchild of Rescue Consignment store owner Angela Dietrich, 37, who saw more and more women’s clothing consignment stores opening in Bend and felt they could help each other by working together.

“There is definitely power in numbers and it’s really a no-brainer for us to come together and do this brochure, because it’s less expensive to print these brochures than to run an ad,” said Dietrich, who also designed the brochure.

“This is the ‘resale trail,’ and when I see a shopper come in with the brochure … I know she got it in another one of the stores listed, so it is working to bring in shoppers, especially tourists. There’s a camaraderie among us.”

Resale is a multimillion-dollar business, according to NARTS, which bills itself as the world’s largest resale trade association.

NARTS’ largest for-profit member, Buffalo Exchange stores — which began in 1974 and has grown to a 36-store chain in 13 states, including Oregon — generated annual revenues of $56.3 million in 2008, according to NARTS. NARTS said its 1,200-member consortium saw fourth-quarter sales last year grow an average of 35 percent over fourth quarter 2008, growth attributed in part to the sluggish economy as more people look to cut costs.

Elite Repeat consignment store co-owner Steve Boatwright says that statistic mirrors what his Bend store has been experiencing.

“I’d have to say business has been very good, and it even seems to be picking up more every day,” said Boatwright, who owns the store with his wife, Pam. “It’s a win-win situation for everyone.

Women want money for their clothes, and we cut checks to them (consigners) and other women want to shop for these high-end clothes at great prices.”

Most of the local women’s consignment clothing stores take a 50-50 cut, meaning the consigner takes half of what the item sells for, and the store takes the other half.

Bargain hunters This business model seems especially lucrative during a down economy, as consigners look to make some extra money and shoppers seek bargains.

Jennifer Heimuller, 36, of Bend, was looking for a bargain recently at the Bend consignment store Rescue, where she already had an armful of clothes to try.

“I love shopping, and here I find the dollar goes so much further,” Heimuller said. “I found a piece here that was one-third the cost of the same item at Nordstrom’s, but the best bargain I ever found was a Dianne Von Furstenberg dress for only $30.”

Shopper Alisha Stone, 25, a college student combing the racks at Rescue, considers herself a recent convert to consignment store shopping.

“I’ve found it’s a more creative way to shop and you save a lot more money, and that’s important to me because I’m a student and a barista on a budget,” Stone said.

“This has opened an entirely new world of shopping for me, they’ve got such great prices with great brands.”

It’s not unusual to find labels like For All Mankind, Lucky or Seven jeans, and designers like Betsey Johnson, BCBG, or Calvin Klein fill the racks of some local consignment shops.

Rescue store manager Callie Bonnell says the great clothing and brands that consigners regularly bring in to sell amaze her.

“I’ve got to say women here are

clothes horses, and we get great clothing in here every day, with more than 1,700 consigners,” Bonnell said. “But besides the economy being down, and people wanting to make some money, I also think it’s about recycling clothes … and decreasing our footprint.

Did you know it takes something like 1,500 gallons of water to make a single pair of jeans? We have designer jeans that can cost about $300 new, but we can sell it for $70.”

According to America’s Research Group, a consumer research firm, about 16 to 18 percent of Americans will shop at a thrift store during a given year; for consignment stores it’s 12 to 15 percent, and the numbers appear to be increasing.

Kaleidoscope store owner Kym Jasmer opened her Bend consignment store five years ago, and also noticed a surge of new shoppers who have just discovered buying clothing secondhand, which she calls, “reloved clothing.”

Bend’s consignment stores feature quality merchandise and are set up like nice boutiques, Jasmer said.

And there are other qualities, too.

“It does make sense for people to recycle their clothing here, because it supports the community and the clothing doesn’t end up in a landfill,” she said. “It’s essentially a guilt-free way of shopping.”

Lula Hoops consignment store owner Wendy Roosa opened her Bend shop during the height of the recession, when she needed a job.

“It does seem strange to open a business during a recessionary period, but I jumped in full force knowing the business would do well because I realized people needed to cut expenses,” said Roosa, who is considering expanding her shop. “I also think that people being footprint-conscious is a huge consideration. My store is like a community trading post, it has an old-fashioned feel to it, as I operate this business with cash or store credit.”

Destination shoppers Tourists Donna Long and her friend, Alice Humbert, of Eugene and Seattle, respectively, were recently shopping at Bend’s oldest consignment shop, Bag Ladies of Union Street, and said they’re all about consignment shopping as a destination activity. As their husbands were hiking, the two women stole away from Eagle Crest Resort to visit Bend’s consignment stores.

“We came here to do golfing and then shopping because you just never know what you’re going to find — it’s the thrill of the hunt,” said an enthusiastic Long.

As Humbert carried clothes to the register at Bag Ladies of Union Street, she couldn’t help but marvel at her finds.

“Look, I’m getting all this stuff, which includes a Chico outfit, a Tommy Bahama’s shirt, all for $36. If I were to buy it new, it’d probably total at least $250. You can’t beat that,” Humbert said.

Bag Ladies of Union Street owner Anne Levitch opened her consignment store in 1987 with a handful of consigners. Today she has more than 10,000 consigners and has expanded her building three times.

“I was the first women’s consignment store back then, and today I think there are at least 12 other women’s clothing consignment stores just in Bend,” Levitch said.

“Business formula? I don’t know, we do our business without a computer, and keep records on a 3-by-5 cards, but it all works, and works well, because people want to make money and save money at the same time. I think it’s because shopping is fun, and everyone loves a good deal, it’s like a treasure hunt and who can resist that?”

MINNEAPOLIS — Now you can ping your friends to get together at a restaurant or bar. Or just shout at them.

They can find you through the global-positioning system chips in your smart phone if you’ve logged on to the Foursquare social network and “checked in” at a local business location. On Foursquare, a ping is a brief “I’m here” message, while a shout is a text message.

“I’ve got about 150 friends and mutual acquaintances on the service,” said Shawn Horton, 24, of St. Paul, Minn., who embraces social media. “You just let your GPS phone say, ‘I’m here.’”

But New York-based Foursquare, a hot new social network that claims 1.5 million users nationwide who can locate each other whenever they want, is also a nascent cell phone advertising company — albeit one without a discernible business model so far.

With consumers “checking in” via Foursquare at businesses such as participating restaurants and bars, they become accessible to both friends and advertisers.

Foursquare sends to their cell phones a list of nearby businesses, including other restaurants

Privacy Continued from G1 “While privacy concerns have ebbed and flowed, I think it is fair to say that they are at an all-time high now,” said Jim Dempsey, vice president for public policy for the Center for Democracy & Technology, a Washington-based nonprofit that works to protect both Internet innovation and privacy.

The conflict only intensified Friday after Google delivered a detailed response to the House Commerce Committee, denying that the company broke U.S. law when it inadvertently scooped up data from unsecured Wi-Fi networks as its Street View cars drove past private homes and businesses.

That did not satisfy U.S. Rep. Joe Barton, R-Texas, co-chairman of the House Privacy Caucus, who called for hearings.

With the chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., asking both Google and Facebook for a broader explanation of their privacy practices, the Federal Communications Commission in a post Friday on its official blog highlighted the security loophole that allowed

Jordan Viator and David Neff check their Foursquare updates at a downtown bar in Austin, Texas, in March. The Foursquare social network lets other users keep track of you through your phone.

“You just let your GPS phone say, ‘I’m here,’” says Shawn Horton, a Minnesota resident and dedicated Foursquare user. or bars that are offering specials on food or drinks. Each business has a page on Foursquare that includes a list of Foursquare users who have “checked in” there and consumer reviews of the businesses. So far it’s free advertising for bars, restaurants and the like, although some suspect the rapidly growing Foursquare will charge them fees at some point.

But for now the Foursquare

the e-mail addresses of 114,000 users of Apple’s new iPad to become accessible.

“Google’s behavior also raises important concerns,” wrote Joel Gurin, who heads FCC’s Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau. “Whether intentional or not, collecting information sent over Wi-Fi networks clearly infringes on consumer privacy.”

The bill before Congress now would determine how Internet companies could collect personal data, and what warnings they would have to give to consumers.

Hoping to tell their side of the story, executives with Facebook and Google have been meeting with members of Congress.

Google has boosted its spending on lobbying and contributions to federal candidates, and plans to continue to expand its presence in Washington, said Alan Davidson, Google’s director of public policy for the Americas.

“We’re growing in Washington because we find our company and our industry is increasingly in the center of important debates about the future of the Internet,” Davidson said. “We want to be a constructive part of those debates.”

service looks democratic.

“Participants are able to share their whereabouts with friends, and it benefits the venues insofar as it’s a very cheap way to market,” Horton said.

In addition, Foursquare sets the privacy bar high. It lets consumers limit sharing their locations with only verified friends but gives them the option of sharing more broadly through

Privacy advocates say Silicon Valley, by using people’s demographic data and online histories as the currency that pays for online services through targeted advertising, is causing the conflict with Washington.

Not everyone sees it that way.

Internet industry advocates warn that Washington could strangle the golden goose of innovation with overly stringent privacy regulations.

Washington has become interested because “professional privacy critics are generating

connections to social networks Facebook or Twitter.

But believing that Foursquare information is really private may be a leap of faith for those already wary because of Facebook’s shifting privacy policies and its users’ confusion over what private information they were authorizing to be shared. No one knows if the Facebook controversy will dampen the growth of social networking.

Nicky Stein-Grohs, 26, of Minneapolis, said she likes the Foursquare policy that it shares her location only with verified friends. As a result, she has declined to use a Foursquare option that would post her Foursquare check-ins on social networking site Twitter, where a wider variety of people would see them.

“It’s a little creepy to let the world know where you are all the time,” Stein-Grohs said.

Others are philosophical about giving up some privacy for the fun of using services such as Foursquare.

“It’s like everything in our digital lives—you have to be careful,” said Matt Woestehoff, 28, of Richfield, Minn. But he’s pretty sure it’s too late to safeguard much of his privacy. “I’m sure you could find out more about me online than you would by talking to me.”

the noise and the calls for legislation,” said Steve DelBianco of NetChoice, a confederation of Internet companies and trade groups.

DelBianco sees a cultural conflict between the valley’s innovate-ordie mindset and Washington’s love of the status quo.

Shadow Continued from G1 “Ultimately,” said the report, “the large overhang of unsold properties and properties still in the process of foreclosure suggest further (price) declines will need to take place to clear out the overstock … (and) we expect prices to drop over the summer.”

How much “shadow inventory” exists is hard to know.

According to lenders, the term is a misnomer when it’s applied to the notion that lenders are holding on to foreclosed properties rather than selling them.

Banks refer to foreclosed properties as “real estate owned” properties, or REOs. Such properties are held on a bank’s books as nonperforming assets, which, if not sold, can drag down a bank’s capital ratios, said Larry Snyder, president and CEO of Bend-based High Desert Bank.

“Nonperforming assets aren’t generating any income whatsoever,” Snyder said. “They’re just sitting there, like a cancer.”

Deschutes County property sales vs. notices of default One sense of the term “shadow inventory” refers to the number of homes that have entered the foreclosure process and will eventually be put up for sale, potentially flooding the market with lower-priced homes. Notices of default filed in Deschutes County remain at record highs. Additionally, bank-owned homes have made up a large part of recent sales and listings. According to the Central Oregon Multiple Listing Service, 41.7 percent of properties sold in the county in 2010 have been bank-owned properties, and another 18.9 percent were short sales. Distressed properties also make up for 26.1 percent of current listings.

‘Conspiracy theory’ Lenders may be moving quickly to sell foreclosed homes.

If there is any delay in moving homes to market, it’s more likely on the front end, say some, meaning banks are stalling the foreclosure process.

Larry Wallace, a mortgage broker with True North Mortgage in Bend, believes a bank is better served keeping a delinquent borrower in a home as long as possible, as the homeowner is likely to continue to maintain the property and keep up with insurance payments.

“I’ve always wondered if ‘shadow inventory’ is more of a conspiracy theory,” Wallace said. “It’s better to have someone in there who is living rentfree and maintaining the home as opposed to taking it over and then having to cover those expenses.”

In a typical foreclosure situation, a borrower is issued a no-

tice of default after falling three months behind on payments.

The notice lists an auction date that is typically set five months after the date of the notice, meaning eight months elapse between the time a borrower misses his or her first payment and has to leave a home.

A review of several notices of default filed with the Deschutes County Clerk’s Office shows some lenders are waiting longer than three months of delinquency before filing notice.

All options Bill Berger, principal broker at the Bend office of Hasson Company Realtors, said that it seems it’s probably not a matter of banks strategizing to keep properties off the market but rather the logistical reality of dealing with an overwhelming number of foreclosures.

“I spoke with a banker and asked her about that, and she said there is no strategy,” Berger said. “It’s just absolute chaos — way too much work and not enough people.”

However, Britney Sheehan, a spokeswoman for Bank of America, the nation’s largest bank, said it is bank policy to delay foreclosure proceedings to make sure borrowers have exhausted all available remedies, such as loan modification.

“Until a foreclosure is completed, Bank of America continues to exhaust every possible option to qualify customers for modification or other foreclosure-avoidance solutions,” Sheehan said in a statement sent to The Bulletin. “While we have very strong loan modification programs now available, unfortunately, the projected increase in foreclosures is a reflection of customers who will not qualify for loan modification programs.”

The number of notices of default continues to rise in Deschutes County. In 2009, a record 3,507 default notices were filed, which was 82.2 percent more than the 1,925 filed in 2008, according to the county Clerk’s

Office.

This year, the pace is accelerating again.

Through June 15, 1,883 notices of default were filed in Deschutes County, a nearly 21 percent increase from the 1,561 filed in the same period in 2009.

Kathy Ragsdale, CEO of the Central Oregon Association of Realtors, said she doesn’t have a sense of how many default notices end up as foreclosures.

A borrower can avoid a foreclosure by bringing a home’s payments current, often with late fees and interest, or by arranging a short sale with the lender, in which the lender agrees to sell the home for less than what the borrower owes.

Only 7.7 percent of properties listed for sale in Deschutes County are bank-owned, according to MLS data provided to The Bulletin by Ragsdale. Active short sales make up another 18.4 percent of total listings.

However, 41.7 percent of the properties sold in the county this year have been bank-owned.

Another 18.9 percent were short sales.

In other words, lenders are moving the properties they assume through foreclosure, Ragsdale said, countering the notion that lenders are holding properties off the market.

the statistics don’t bear that out,” Ragsdale said.

From May 2009 to May 2010, there were 4,388 total sales in Deschutes County, according to MLS data. During the same period, 4,707 notices of default were filed.

But because of the amount of time that elapses between the filing of a notice of default and the sale of that foreclosed home, it’s impossible to draw any sort of correlation between the two sets of data.

Sales up, prices flat Home sales have been brisk in 2010, which many attribute primarily to the recently expired housing tax credits. The Standard & Poor’s report said most sales were to first-time homebuyers taking advantage of the credit. But the current low prices and low interest rates also have drawn investors back into the market.

Home prices, however, have stayed flat. In Bend, the median sale price for a single-family residence in May was $190,000, according to a monthly housing report from the Bend-based Bratton Appraisal Group. Since January, the average monthly median has been $189,600.

Hasson’s Berger believes that because home prices are currently stagnating, it’s unlikely

the third definition of shadow inventory — homes that owners are keeping off the market until prices rebound — will ever materialize because price appreciation will be so slow in the future.

“It will be a long crawl out of this mess, so if someone says they are going to wait until the market returns to where we were, they are going to be waiting 10 to 15 years,” Berger said.

“If you think about it from a rational standpoint, probably at least 10 percent of those people each year are going to say, ‘I can’t wait any longer, I gotta get going,’ so that inventory is not going to be a glut because there will be a slow attrition of people who have to buy and sell.”

San Francisco is close to enacting a law that would require retailers to post signs stating how much radiation is emitted from cell phones.

The city’s Board of Supervisors voted 10 to 1 on Tuesday to approve the ordinance, which would require stores to provide each phone’s “specific absorption rate” — a measurement of radiation absorbed by a phone user’s body tissue that each manufacturer is required to register with the Federal Communications Commission.

The law, the first of its kind in the United States, would apply only to stores in San Francisco.

Mayor Gavin Newsom, who proposed the ordinance, is expected to quickly sign it into law after a 10-day comment period and a final vote by the Board of Supervisors.

“We think this is a modest and very reasonable measure that provides greater transparency and information for consumers to whom this is a concern,” said Tony Winnicker, a spokesman for mayor’s office.

But cell phone industry advocates, such as CTIAThe Wireless Association, staunchly oppose the measure and say it could mislead consumers into believing that some cell phones are safer than others.

Phone sellers may have to post radiation emissions in San Francisco

Incentive to move the properties Snyder said it behooves banks to get rid of their REO properties as soon as possible. If they don’t, not only will they incur additional expenses maintaining the properties — such as mowing lawns and keeping pipes from freezing — but they also will draw the ire of regulators that are ramping up capital requirements.

Snyder said it’s theoretically possible that some of the nation’s biggest banks may have enough capital cushion to hold properties off the market, but he said it’s highly unlikely that they are doing so.

“Banks are not good property owners,” Snyder said. “We want to make sound loans to get paid back, so if we have to repossess a property, it’s a challenge because (owning real estate is) not what we do.”

Tom Unger, a Portland-based spokesman for Wells Fargo Bank, the nation’s fourth-largest bank, said in a statement sent to The Bulletin that the bank has “a strong interest in seeing real estate owned properties reoccupied quickly.

“When we acquire a foreclosed property, we get it ready for marketing in the community and work with local real estate agents to sell it as soon as possible,” Unger said in the statement.

“We feel it’s not good for the house or for the neighborhood for a foreclosed home to remain vacant. We will sell these homes at an appropriate market value.”

For 2011, a 2-trick pony: 305 horses and 31 mpg

By John Pearley Huffman New York Times News Service

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. — Less than a single model year after it showed up for work, the 2010 Ford Mustang received a gold watch and a retirement package. Despite sheet metal that was still fresh enough to stand out from the pony car herd, Ford euthanized that revamped model and skipped ahead to next year.

The 2011 R E V I E W Mustang has been on sale since April, and while it may look only slightly different from the 2010 edition, it is much better in the places where even a little better counts.

Gone is the base Mustang’s archaic 210-horsepower 4-liter iron-block V-6, replaced by an economical and effective allaluminum V-6, which displaces 3.7 liters and pumps out an impressive 305 horsepower.

Also banished is the 2010 Mustang GT’s yester-tech V-8, a 4.6-liter engine that made 315 horsepower. In its place is an all-new, all-rollicking 5-liter V8 rated at 412 horses. This new V-8 is so entertaining that it deserves a Golden Globe.

Along with new manual and automatic transmissions — both with 6 forward speeds — the engines represent the single greatest technological leap for the Mustang since it entered production 46 years ago.

And while the new V-8 deserves its own Irving Berlin ballad, the tune today is in the key of V-6.

‘Finding solutions’ Let’s put that engine’s performance in perspective. It carries the same horsepower rating as the most muscular Mustang offered in 1998 — the SVT Cobra with a 4.6-liter, dual-overhead cam, 32-valve V-8 that seemed exotic at the time. Yet the new Mustang manages 19 miles per gallon in the city and, when paired with the automatic transmission, 31 mpg on the highway. That’s 5 mpg better than the highway rating for the base Mustang notchback way back in 1984. That tired old horse weighed 900 pounds less than today’s larger pony, had a crummy 88-horsepower 4-cylinder under its hood and a gear-grinding 4-speed manual transmission.

“It’s all about interdependency,” said David Pericak, the 33year-old chief engineer of the Mustang, explaining the talents of the new drive trains. “About finding solutions at each opportunity that would be more efficient.”

Those optimized interdependencies let the car’s Duratec V-6 perform as if it were actually two separate engines: one optimized for fuel economy at low engine speeds and partial throttle, and one that roars when allowed to spin toward its red line of 7,000 rpm at full throttle.

Start up the new V-6 and it growls a bit through its new dual exhaust outlets. Put the shifter in D, touch the throttle pedal lightly and the Mustang moves out, well, tenderly.

There’s enough torque available from just off idle to motivate the car easily — even the heavier Mustang convertible. But if kept below 4,000 rpm, the engine responds modestly. It doesn’t feel as if it is making anything close to 305 horsepower.

Investigating the link of A/C failure to stalls

By Paul Brand (Minneapolis) Star Tribune

Q:

The air conditioning has stopped working on my 1997 Grand Caravan. The van stalled and would not start for about 10 minutes. After that, the A/C would not work. Is there an easy way to tell whether the A/C clutch failed, or the compressor?

I think the car stalled because the A/C seized up.

Open the hood and look at the air conditioning compressor. Make sure the serpentine belt is intact, properly tensioned and not damaged. With the car’s ventilation controls set to “off,” start the engine and look at the clutch/pulley assembly on the front of the compressor. The clutch should not be engaged — the outer pulley driven by the belt should be turning, but the inner hub should not. If both are turning, the clutch is seized.

Now, turn on the air conditioning and look again. Both the outer pulley and the inner hub should be turning, indicating the clutch is engaged and driving the compressor. If the compressor is seized, the entire clutch assembly will be stationary and the belt will be slipping, squealing, smoking and, in a very short period of time, failing. Because of the need to recharge the system to replace the compressor, leave service to the pros.

The 2011 Mustang’s new engines and transmissions are a leap forward, carrying a muscular horsepower rating while maintaining 19 mpg fuel mileage in the city.

2011 Ford Mustang Ba se price: $22,995 As tested: $34,990 Type: Front-engine, rear-wheeldrive pony car Engine: In base models, a 3.7 liter all-aluminum V-6; in the Mustang GT, a 5-liter V-8; 6-speed manual and automatic transmissions available Mileage: Automatic: 19 mpg city, 31 mpg highway; manual: 19/29 Well, it isn’t.

The Duratec V-6 may have dual overhead cams, four valves per cylinder and an aggressive 10.5:1 compression ratio, but it is tuned to putter around like a golf cart as long as it is driven with a light foot. The 280 pound-feet of peak torque isn’t available until the engine is spinning at a lofty 4,250 rpm and long before that the automatic transmission will shift itself into the highest gear possible (both fifth and sixth are overdrives) to keep the engine revs down.

In fact, at low speed the new engine doesn’t feel much different from the superseded 4-liter V-6 that made its peak torque (240 pound-feet) at a relatively sedate 3,500 rpm.

In sum, at part throttle, the Duratec V-6 behaves like, say, a 190-horsepower engine. That is why it can return such solid fuel economy numbers.

Ready to rev Crush the throttle pedal, however, and all 305 horses show up ready to gallop. The Mustang’s Duratec may not be equipped with of-the-moment technologies like direct injection (in contrast to the V-6 of its archrival, the Chevrolet Camaro), but the engine’s variable camshaft timing system is very effective.

Once the tachometer needle sweeps past 4,000 rpm, the intake and exhaust cams transition to more aggressive settings and the V-6 breathes like Secretariat turning onto the front straight in the Belmont Stakes.

By holding the transmission in each gear, it’s possible to keep the engine boiling in the sweet spot between the torque peak at 4,250 rpm and the dizzying 6,500 rpm where it makes its maximum horsepower.

That is just 500 rpm short of the V-6’s red line, where the

engine-control computer intervenes to keep the pistons from bursting through the hood.

But when this engine is making its full 305 horsepower it’s getting nothing close to 31 mpg. Try 15, or 13, or maybe 12. This would be hard to calculate because holding those engine speeds for very long is virtually impossible except on a racetrack.

InsideLine.com measured a 2011 V-6 coupe with a manual gearbox running from 0 to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds. It also raced through the quarter mile in 13.9 seconds at 101.2 mph.

While short of the performance of last year’s Mustang GT (13.5 seconds at 102.9 mph) that car’s V-8 had 315 horsepower and was rated at 24 mpg on the highway.

(InsideLine has the 2011 Mustang GT ripping through the quarter mile in 13.0 seconds at 110.6 mph and sprinting from 0 to 60 mph in 4.8 seconds.)

and the air-conditioning off, the Mustang burned just 4.2 gallons of regular-grade gas. My average for that trip of 31.3 mpg is pretty good for a convertible that’s 188 inches long and weighs 3,604 pounds.

The Mustang’s evolution has been slow. And by hewing closely to the original concept of the car, it has retained its character remarkably well. But for the first time, the Mustang has engines better than the rest of the car.

It’s time for Ford to shrink the Mustang some both in size and weight, and to give it a more sophisticated chassis. After all, making one leap forward doesn’t mean there aren’t more hurdles to clear.

Q:

I’ve got a 2000 Buick LeSabre with 59,000 miles that I purchased new. During the past six months, the checkengine light comes on and the dashboard message center tells me the gas cap is loose. This has happened more than 10 times.

I’ve had the check-engine light cleared several times and I am certain the gas cap is on tight.

Despite installing a new gas cap, the engine light still comes on.

The garage assures me all the emissions components are

working properly and blames the problem on the car being rear-ended a year ago and sustaining major damage. What can I do to correct this?

The garage could well be correct. Residual damage to any of the evaporative emission components could be the problem. Have the shop identify the specific DTC fault code that is triggering the light. The selfdiagnostic capabilities of the evap system can pinpoint vacuum leaks or problems with the fuel tank pressure sensor, vent valve solenoid, purge valve solenoid or charcoal canister.

Q:

I’ve got a 2003 Nissan Murano with 97,000 miles.

When I drive slowly, like browsing garage sales, it gets balky and hesitant. The dealer found no codes in the computer, and they changed two air hoses and clamps. No help.

Did the dealer also install an updated air intake duct, according to Nissan recall R0902 in July 2009? Deterioration can cause an erratic idle.

Q:

I recently bought a 2010 2.0-liter VW Passat. Their scheduled free maintenance for three years or 36,000 miles calls for oil changes at 10,000mile intervals with synthetic oil.

Am I asking for major expenses down the road by following their maintenance program?

I doubt it, but why not change the oil every 5,000 miles on your own nickel? It’s cheap insurance.

Places to improve The test car was a $34,990 convertible with an automatic transmission, which according to Ford weighs 133 pounds more than the V-6 coupe. But despite the heft and the gearbox, the car felt athletic and easygoing.

The V-6 lacks the low-end grunt that makes V-8s so much fun, but its combination of cruising parsimony and high-end thrills is tantalizing. This is not a car that feels compromised by its drive train.

Advanced as the new drive train is, however, there’s a lot of throwback in the Mustang’s engineering that defines both its charms and its limitations.

Soon to be the last rear-drive car sold in America with a solid rear axle, the Mustang handles and rides well, but the tail takes its time settling down after hitting a bump.

The MacPherson strut front suspension is more compliant, but the convertible’s structure does shudder noticeably. The Pirelli PZero tires put a lot of rubber on the road, but the new electric power steering doesn’t communicate to the driver much of what’s happening down there.

Though the convertible carries the same 19 mpg rating for city driving, on the highway its extra weight knocks the estimate back a tick to 30 mpg.
