For Wyden’s challenger, Merkley’s win serves as a model Polls show Huffman closing in on Wyden, but big hurdles remain

By Keith Chu The Bulletin

WASHINGTON — The script should be familiar to Oregon voters: A lesser-known challenger rides a wave of public dissatisfaction, overcoming lagging poll numbers and a big money disadvantage, to an upset win over a two-term U.S. senator.

That’s how Democrat Jeff Merkley defeated thenSen. Gordon Smith, R-Ore., in 2008. And it’s how Portland Republican Jim Huffman argues he can beat Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden this fall.

H u f f m a n’s campaign points to a pair of polls by RasmussenReports showing that he trails Wyden by 10 percentage points — putting him closer to the incumbent than Merkley was Ron Wyden, to Smith at the top, and Jim same point two Huffman years ago.

Huffman is right about the polls — Merkley was farther behind at the same point two years ago, but came back to win a close victory. But his argument hinges heavily on the idea that this election will come with a tidal wave of pro-Republican fervor, in a mirror image of what happened in 2008, when Democrats swept to huge majorities in Congress.

School bonds go farther than expected Bend-La Pine projects coming in under budget by $1-2M

By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin

The projects paid for by the $119 million Bend-La Pine Schools bond that voters passed in 2006 are nearly complete.

And with the economy and construction industry struggling since 2008, many of those projects have come more cheap-

construction of three elementary schools, as well as renovations or additions to 23 district schools and several facilities. By state law, bond funds can only be used for capital projects, renovation and other construction on district-owned facilities.

Bond money cannot be used for personnel or other district budget initiatives.

Deputy Superintendent John Rexford said it’s still uncertain how much the district will have left over, but he expects it

ly, with companies bidding the construction lower than the district expected. As a result, the district is finishing up its last bond projects and will likely have between $1 million and $2 million left over.

Now district officials must decide how to use that additional money.

The $119 million bond included the

had just come out of the oven at the Cascade Culinary Institute at Central Oregon Community College on Friday. It did not worry Culinary Instructor Thor Erickson.

“As chefs, we constantly have to improvise and roll with what we have,” he told a worried student. Minutes later, white bowls had been found, and students were slicing the fragrant bread and arranging it in the bowls.

The challah bread was the only food served at Friday’s luncheon that had an ingredient from outside Central Oregon. (Erickson said he had been unable to find local flour.) The meal was the culmination of the culinary institute’s first course in sustainability.

The greens, vegetables, goat’s cheese, risotto, buffalo ribs and chicken that made up the other portions of the multi-course meal all came from within 100 miles of COCC. The greens and vegetables had even been picked by Erickson’s students, who spent the mornings for the last two weeks working at a local farm.

“They amazed me with their willingness to get things done,” Jim Fields, of Fields Farm in Bend, said at the school on Friday. Fields has been farming organically since 1989 and said it was only in the last six to eight years that he began to get some attention for something he’d been doing since he was a boy helping in his grandmother’s garden. Fields said the students had been attentive and quick learners and had been a huge help on the farm.

That money could go several places.

The district could give the money back to the taxpayers or put the leftover funds toward paying down its debt. It could do additional projects that are similar to those already finished or currently under way.

Or it could return to early bond projects that were done on tight budgets to ensure the bond funds lasted.

The longing for President Barack Obama to vent some fury at oil executives or bankers may run deeper than politics. Millions of people live or work with exasperatingly cool customers, who seem to be missing an emotional battery, or perhaps saving their feelings for a special occasion.

Sang-froid has its place, but so does Sigmund Freud, who described the downside of suppressed passions. Those exhortations directed at the president could as easily be turned on coworkers, spouses, friends: Lose it.

“My wife is 44 and has three kids. Five years ago she wore 7 for All Mankind jeans.

They’re not appropriate anymore. She’s not going to wear 7½-inch rise jeans. But she’s not going to wear ‘mom jeans’ either.” — Rob Mann, CEO of Henry-Lee and Co. Aubrie Meyers, background, a pattern maker for Chicagobased Henry-Lee and Co., works with one of the company’s “fit models” for jeans. “Fit models” are women of specific sizes who allow designers to make jeans that fit better. With some 76 million baby boomers accounting for half of all consumer spending, more designers are focusing on women’s jeans that fit middleaged hips while still looking hip.

Looking for your own economic recovery? Learn how to haggle

By Susan Murphy Casey The Kansas City Star

It never hurts to ask.

A department store might have $100 leeway on a chair that hasn’t been selling well, or a store manager trying to sell a pricy appliance could drop the price, waive delivery or throw in accessories.

When hunting for lower prices for goods and services for the home, “There’s more room for negotiation than we normally think,” said David Bell, a business professor at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania. “If you’re bold enough to offer something lower, it’s usually worthwhile to enter into negotiation.”

Consumer Reports’ polling indicates that more people are starting to haggle — and more are succeeding, according to executive editor Greg Daugherty. “You have every reason to try to haggle,” said Daugherty, who cites the economic downturn as the reason for the increase. “If you’re polite and say you don’t have that much in your budget, the people you ask won’t be surprised or upset. Give it a shot.”

Jeans are changing along with boomers More denim designers catering to the needs of middle-aged consumers – especially women

By Sandra M. Jones Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO — Baby boomers were the first American generation to grow up in blue jeans. And they’re not ready to give them up.

As the youngest boomer turns 46 this year, demand for hip jeans with a bit more give is on the rise. With roughly 76 million baby boomers accounting for half of consumer spending, denimmakers are waking up to the fact that there is money to be made in women’s jeans that fit middle-age hips and thighs while still looking cool.

Unfortunately, shopping for a pair of jeans for most women ranks on par with shopping for a swimsuit, a constant reminder that they’re not Jennifer Aniston.

“It’s a nightmare,” said Alice Harris, author of “The Blue Jean,” a book that chronicles Americans’ love affair with denim. “You have to go first thing in the morning before you’ve eaten. You simply can’t try on jeans at 4 in the afternoon, unless you’re 16 years old. For the rest of us, it’s an 8 a.m. call.”

Part of the problem is that the denim culture was born in California. And the business is still steeped in the land of facelifts and celebrities. No shopper wants to buy fat jeans. But maybe it’s time for a dose of reality.

Finding a niche Third-generation women’s clothingmaker Rob Mann, CEO of Chicagobased Henry-Lee and Co., believes the opportunity is ripe for a Midwesterner with common sense to enter the premium denim game. Mann, 47, is so sure that there is a booming market for contemporary jeans that fit without looking dowdy that he is betting his company on it — literally.

“My wife is 44 and has three kids,” Mann said. “Five years ago she wore 7 for Alll Mankind jeans. They’re not appropriate anymore. She’s not going to wear 7½-inch rise jeans. But she’s not going to wear ‘mom jeans’ either.”

So in March, Mann sold HenryLee’s core 600 West clothing division to Ava Design LLC, a New York-based women’s apparel manufacturer, for an undisclosed sum. The two companies agreed to operate the line of women’s blazers, tops and pants as a joint venture this year, and Ava will take over the division in 2011.

Mann is investing sales proceeds into turning the company his grandparents founded into Chicago’s first major denim house.

The jeans, set to debut in August, are called Henry & Belle, after Mann’s grandparents, a fashionable couple who started designing women’s clothes

in the 1930s when Chicago was teeming with dress houses.

The line of jeggings (superskinny jeans that look like leggings) straight jeans and boot cut denim is priced at about $140 to $150, and the fabric is made with four-way stretch XFIT Lycra, a cross-weave that its makers claim holds its shape better than other stretch denim.

Mann is targeting a corner of the premium denim market that he says has less competition, the $100 to $150 range. Market researchers define premium denim as any pair of jeans over $50. But for shoppers, the brands most associated with premium denim, such as True Religion and Joe’s Jeans, cost $150 to $200.

“There is a lot of flash and show business in denim,” said Mann. “Denim lines pop out of nowhere and then go away. My grandfather founded the company and my grandmother was a model who influenced how he designed clothes. He designed for elegant women like her who wanted to be on trend but not flowing to the winds of whatever the hot fashion was.”

Piles of coveted labels commanding $250 to $350 price tags before the recession descended have faded away. Remember Blue Cult, the jeans Gwyneth Paltrow made famous? Gone. Likewise Paper Denim & Cloth, Antique Denim, People’s Liberation and Earl Jean — just to name a few — have disappeared.

Even the highly recognized Los Angeles label Rock & Republic filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in April.

Plenty of competition Still, for all its hype, the denim market is one of the few apparel categories that held up through the recession. Although the days of $300 denim are past, sales of blue jeans continue to gain.

For the year ended April 30, retailers in the U.S. sold 357 million pairs of women’s jeans for $8.3 billion, a 5.1 percent increase in dollar volume from the same period a year earlier and a 6.6 percent jump in unit sales, according to NPD Group, a Port Washington, N.Y.based market research firm.

More striking, women age 55 and older are the fastest growing group of denim buyers. They spent $1.1 billion on jeans this year, up 38 percent from last year, said NPD. In 2009, spending among the same age group rose only 9.6 percent.

But the competition is fierce. There are hundreds of denim labels to choose from and more hitting the market every day.

Earlitha “Cookie” Johnson, wife of retired L.A. Lakers basketball star

Magic Johnson, launched CJ by Cookie Johnson jeans for curvy women last year. The jeans, priced at $115 to $198, took off after they appeared on Oprah Winfrey’s TV show and made the media diva’s list of “Favorite Things.”

Likewise, Chip Foster, one of the designers who founded the flash-in-thepan premium denim line Chip & Pepper, is making a comeback with a new label called Pray for Mother Nature.

In May, Gap Inc. hired 7 for All Mankind’s head designer to ramp up its new 1969 premium denim line, priced at $70.

Even pioneer Levi Strauss & Co. is hoping to reignite sales with a new, edgier denim line that approaches $200.

“The last few years we’ve seen so many new brands coming out on a weekly basis in L.A.,” said Stefano Aldighieri, a denim designer who has worked for 7 for All Mankind and Levi’s. “It’s not as crowded as it was two years ago, but there are still too many players.”

New jeans Henry-Lee, for its part, is taking advantage of the economic downturn by hiring talent from the denim industry in L.A. and New York on a contract basis. The recession made its way through the denim industry as it did everywhere else, shutting down lines and leaving plenty of experienced designers, production operators and sales and marketing executives free for project work, he said.

So Mann assembled a team from Gap, Edun, DKNY, Michael Kors, BCBG Max Azria and Ralph Lauren to fly into Chicago monthly to create the new denim line.

The jeans line started out late last year with the name Denim 6, and Henry-Lee sold the collection to some independent retailers to test the market earlier this year.

By April, the team began making adjustments to the whiskering and the rise and the wash, aiming to boost the cool factor. Mann hired a few more outsiders in marketing and sales to talk to Nordstrom and Bloomingdale’s about carrying the line. The fresh perspective shook Mann into realizing that Henry-Lee’s longevity — it was founded in 1957 — stood out in a sea of flyby-night denim labels, so he renamed the line after the founders.

Mann hopes the Henry & Belle line will generate $5 million its first year and eventually account for three-quarters of Henry-Lee’s revenue. The company continues its sourcing business, manufacturing private-label clothing.

“Jeans is the defining piece of attire for the entire boomer generation,” said Jennifer Ganshirt, managing partner of the marketing firm Frank About Women. “Boomers basically put jeans on the map and created a jeans culture. Of any generation to identify with jeans, it’s the boomers.”

“We tend to think of big-ticket items — houses, cars — when we think of negotiation,” said Richard Reuben, a professor of law at the University of Missouri-Columbia. “But truly, almost anything is fair game.” If the expiration date on a gallon of milk is close and you don’t have a lot of money, a manager might be convinced to lower the price, he said. But he noted that the margin on lower-priced goods is so small that negotiating usually isn’t worthwhile.

“If you start looking around the house at higherpriced items, you’ll see where you can haggle,” said Devavrat Purohit, a business professor at Duke University. “Interior decorating, installation of blinds, carpets, furniture, mattresses — are all negotiable.

Things purchased infrequently have leeway.”

Experts agree that boldness is key. “Many get embarrassed, but there’s no harm in asking for a better price,” Purohit said. “Some people will fold quickly, don’t have patience or will get uncomfortable. You’ll get the best deal if you don’t mind engaging in haggling.”

Electronics and furnishings Electronics and appliances are some of the priciest home goods with some of the highest mark-ups, making them ripe for haggling, said Bell, who negotiated roughly $2,000 off a high-end television. According to a May 2009 Consumer Reports survey, 71 percent of those who tried to haggle on electronics and furniture got a better deal.

“Managers do have some wiggle room on pricing,” said Jill Nezworski of Best Buy. “But customers should expect to pay the price on the tag.” Experts suggest consumers are in the best position to negotiate for electronics and appliances at the end of a quarter or month (when a store might need to meet a quota). Haggling may be more effective on higher-priced goods, products that received negative reviews and floor models.

Whether at an estate sale or a large store, furniture is often ripe for negotiation, too. Interior designer Susan Prestia says that most furniture can be discounted roughly 40 percent from the manufacturer’s suggested retail price. New shipments of furniture usually arrive in January and June at large furniture stores, Prestia said, so look for the best deals around Memorial Day and Christmas.

Pick your price Know the price range of the product or service by watching competitors’ ads and researching the cost online. Many stores or contractors will meet or beat a competitor’s price.

Use reviews to your advantage. Monitoring publications and online ratings can help direct you to a highly rated brand or model. But imperfect ratings can help in negotiating because they support an argument for a lower price, said David Bell, a business professor at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania.

Anticipate upselling, where the salesperson suggests accessories or an extended warranty, Bell said. If the TV you want will require a new cable, know which cable is a good buy.

Also, consider your timing. Consumer Reports editor Greg Daugherty suggests haggling at the end of the day, when it’s not as busy and personnel have more time to talk. And it’s important to be friendly.

“If you’re too aggressive, they’ll be eager for you to leave the store,” Daugherty said.

In a March report that was not questioned by federal officials, BP said it had the capacity to skim and remove 491,721 barrels of oil each day in the event of a major spill. As of Monday, with about 2 million barrels released into the Gulf, the skimming operations that were touted as key to preventing environmental disaster have averaged less than 900 barrels a day.

Recovery effort falls vastly short of BP’s promises In the 77 days since oil from the ruptured Deepwater Horizon began to gush into the Gulf of Mexico, BP has skimmed or burned about 60 percent of the amount it promised regulators it could remove in a single day.

The disparity between what BP promised in its March 24 filing with federal regulators and the amount of oil recovered since the April 20 explosion underscores what some officials and environmental groups call a numbers game that has led to widespread confusion about the extent of the spill and the progress of the recovery.

“It was just a matter of time that some of the oil would find its way to Texas,” said Hans Graber, a marine physicist at the University of Miami and co-director of the Center for Southeastern Tropical Advanced Remote Sensing.

CHARLOTTE — Forecasters say a potentially life-threatening heat wave could develop this week in the Northeast, then spread into the Carolinas later in the week.

Readings of 100 degrees or hotter are predicted for cities such as Philadelphia, Baltimore, Washington and New York City today and Wednesday.

An excessive heat advisory has been posted in New York City and Philadelphia, where authorities are opening “cooling stations,” air-conditioned buildings where residents can come and get relief.

Some relief from the hot weather is forecast by Thursday or Friday.

“Southern locations will feel the inferno later in the week,” said Alex Sosnowski, a meteorologist with Pennsylvania-based Accu-Weather, a private firm.

Sosnowski said humidity levels will climb in the Southeast as the week progresses.

He added that parts of the Tennessee valley and Middle Atlantic areas are experiencing the warmest spring on record.

“In parts of the Northeast, strawberries were harvested in during May instead of June, while peaches are also being picked a month ahead of schedule,” he said.

TEXAS CITY, Texas — Tar balls from the Gulf oil spill found on a Texas beach were confirmed Monday as the first evidence that gushing crude from the Deepwater Horizon well has reached all the Gulf states.

A Coast Guard official said it was possible that the oil hitched a ride on a ship and was not carried naturally by currents to the barrier islands of the eastern Texas coast, but there was no way to know for sure.

The amount discovered is tiny in comparison to what has coated beaches so far in the hardest-hit parts of the Gulf coast in Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and the Florida Panhandle.

It still provoked the quick dispatch of cleaning crews and a vow that BP will pay for the trouble.

“Any Texas shores impacted by the Deepwater spill will be cleaned up quickly and BP will be picking up the tab,” Texas Land Commissoner Jerry Patterson said in a news release.

The oil’s arrival in Texas was predicted Friday by an analysis from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, which gave a 40 percent chance of crude reaching the area.

TEL AVIV — Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his chief goal in meeting President Barack Obama at the White House today is to

say whether the new policy will permit Gaza businesses to resume exports, a step that is seen as vital to restoring Gaza’s economy, where unemployment runs at 40 percent.

Critics said the new list of banned and restricted items, which fills several hundred pages, still includes goods and supplies vital to Gaza’s economic recovery, including cement, lumber and other building materials.

The import of construction materials, including concrete, steel products and iron, will be permitted on a case-by-case basis and only under the supervision of the international community.

The release of the Gaza list was part of an effort by Netanyahu to smooth the way for his muchanticipated visit with President Barack Obama today.

JERUSALEM — As Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu embarked Monday on a fence-mending trip to the U.S., his government released a list of thousands of items that will continue to be banned or restricted from entering Gaza Strip, including such basics as fertilizer and cement.

Announcement of the new list was intended to demonstrate that Israel was easing its three-year land blockade around Gaza Strip that allowed the import of fewer than 200 items, chiefly basic food and humanitarian goods. That policy drew international scorn after Israeli commandos killed nine activists in a May 31 highseas raid against a protest flotilla to deliver aid supplies by sea.

“Anyone who wants peace would enter direct peace negotiations,” Netanyahu said at a Cabinet meeting in Jerusalem on Sunday, in remarks posted on his website. “I hope this will be one of the outcomes of the Washington trip.”

Netanyahu said he will discuss security concerns important to Israel and the U.S. during his meeting with Obama.

Kandahar is key to victory in Afghan war, McCain says

Jesse Withers, 27, and Lauren Jarrold, 26, enjoy a salad full of greens and vegetables they picked as students in the first-ever course on sustainability taught at COCC’s Cascade Culinary Institute. After his experiences in the class, Withers said, he plans to “shop only organic” from now on.

The Associated Press KABUL, Afghanistan — The ranking Republican on the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee said NATO and Afghan troops will prevail if they can succeed in securing and bolstering governance in the Taliban stronghold of Kandahar.

Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., who visited Afghanistan’s largest city in the south on Monday with two other U.S. lawmakers, warned of tough fighting ahead

Food Continued from A1 For their part, many students said the time on the farm had given them a new appreciation for what it took to regularly produce a significant and steady amount of food.

The day before the luncheon, culinary student Tisha Albers, 35, knelt in the dirt at Fields’ farm. She was weeding along an irrigation line that ran through a vegetable field.

After she graduates next spring, Albers said, she hopes to open her own adventure camp where visitors could come for guided fishing, hiking and other outdoor activities. She said the camp will be entirely off the grid and will feature cuisine from its own gardens.

“I’ve been able to talk to sustainable farmers and learn all the ins and outs that really make it happen,” Albers said of her experience in the course.

In addition to working at Fields’ farm, Albers and her fel-

“Chefs have always tried to find the best product they can. If it travels miles to get here, it’s not as good.” — Julian Darwin, program coordinator at COCC low students traveled to local farms like Juniper Grove Farm in Redmond, which focus on food production of other types.

Goat’s milk and cheese is Juniper Grove’s main product and ice cream made from the farm’s milk was the surprise dessert course at Friday’s meal.

Albers said she had been aware of the importance of things like organic farming before she took Erickson’s class, but other students reported knowing very little about sustainability before starting the course.

“At first it was just an extra credit,” Jesse Withers, 27, who will start at the Culinary Institute next fall, said. Now, he said, “I’m going to shop only organic.”

Withers said he had worked at restaurants before, but only ones where food was bought in bulk and arrived in the kitchen

Emotion Continued from A1 “One reason we’re so attuned to others’ emotions is that, when it’s a real emotion, it tells us something important about what matters to that person,” said Dr. James Gross, a psychologist at Stanford University.

When it’s suppressed or toned down, he added, “People think, damn it, you’re not like us, you don’t care about the same things we do.”

The study of what psychologists call emotion regulation is fairly new, and for obvious reasons has focused far more on untamed passions than on the domesticated variety. Runaway emotion defines many mental disorders, after all, whereas restraint is typically associated with good mental health, from childhood through later life.

Yet social functioning is a different matter. Research in just the past few years has found that people develop a variety of psychological tools to manage what they express, and those techniques often become subconscious, affecting social interactions in unintended ways.

The better that people understand their own patterns, the more likely they are to see why some emotionally charged interactions go awry — whether from too little control or, in the president’s case, perhaps too much.

Most scientists agree that a person’s in-born temperament sets a range of emotional expression that is possible, or at least comfortable. Growing up is, in one sense, a living education in how to manage that temperament so that it elicits help from others and does not torment oneself.

“As we grow, the prefrontal areas of the brain develop, and we become more biologically able to control our impulses, as well,” said Dr. Stefan Hofmann, a professor of psychology at Boston University.

Responsive strategies Psychologists divide regulation strategies into two broad categories: preemptive, occurring before an emotion is fully felt, and responsive, coming afterward.

The best known of the latter category, and one of the first learned, is simple suppression.

First-graders will cover a smile with their hand when a classmate does something embarrassing; and in time, many become far more adept, reflexively masking surprise, alarm, even rage with a

canned or frozen. This week, Withers said, he had a chance to taste all sorts of things, like basil, sage and carrots, straight out of the ground. “(Erickson) would say, ‘Here, taste this leaf,’ and it would be amazing!” Withers said. “Actually, I’d never had carrots — raw carrots — until I was out on the farm,” he said.

This kind of experience is just what Erickson said he wanted for the future chefs under his tutelage. “Chefs need to know where real food and real flavor come from,” he said.

Erickson got his start in the 1980s working for Alice Waters, the chef from Berkeley, Calif., who played a large part in popularizing the modern fresh, local, organic food movement. Now that the movement has become more mainstream, Erickson said, citing first lady Michelle

poker face.

Suppression, while clearly valuable in some situations (no laughing during the funeral Mass, please), has social costs that are all too familiar to those who know its cold touch.

In one 2003 Stanford study, researchers found that people instructed to wear a poker face while discussing a documentary about the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki made especially stressful conversation partners.

In another, published last year, psychologists followed 278 men and women as they entered college, giving questionnaires and conducting interviews. Those who scored highest on measures of emotion suppression had the hardest time making friends.

“An individual who responds to the college transition by becoming emotionally guarded in the first few days” will likely miss opportunities for friendships, the authors write.

Pre-emptive methods Pre-emptive techniques can work in more subtle ways. One of these is simple diversion, reflexively focusing on the good and ignoring the bad; rereading the praise in an evaluation and ignoring or dismissing any critique.

A 2009 study led by Dr. Derek Isaacowitz of Brandeis University found that people older than 55 were much more likely than those age 25 and younger to focus on positive images when in a bad mood — thereby buoying their mood. The younger group was more likely to focus on negative images when feeling angry or down.

More striking, Isaacowitz found in another study that older people were twice as likely as younger ones to be what he called “rapid regulators” — people whose mood bounced back quickly, sometimes within minutes, after ruminating on depressing memories.

“We have found in general that

older people tend to regulate their emotions faster, and are not as motivated to explore negative information, to engage negative images, as younger people are,” said Isaacowitz, who led the study.

“And it makes some sense, that younger adults would explore the negative side of things, that they need to and maybe want to experience them — to experience life — as they develop their own strategies to regulate.”

Socially speaking, in short, the ability to blithely shrug off feelings of disgust or outrage may suit an older group, but strike younger people as inauthentic, even callous.

What serves you?

Finally, people may choose the emotions they feel far more often than they are aware — and those choices, too, can trip up social interactions. A series of recent experiments led by Dr. Maya Tamir, a psychologist at Hebrew University in Jerusalem and Boston College, has found that people subconsciously prime themselves to feel emotions that they believe will be most useful to them in an anticipated situation. The researchers call these instrumental emotions.

In one experiment, published last year, Tamir and Brett Ford of Boston College prepared participants to play a video game in which they would be hunted down by monsters. Before playing, the study volunteers rated what type of music they wanted to listen to, and what kind of autobiographical memories they preferred to recall.

They were much more likely to recall fearful memories, and prefer to listen to horror music, than others who were expecting to play a video game in which they built a theme park, or solve a simple puzzle. They were, the authors argue, adopting an emotion that would serve them well in the game.

Tamir has found similar results in a variety of situations, showing

Obama’s vegetable garden and the Food Network, “I think it’s gonna stick.”

The culinary program at Cascade Culinary Institute is growing, according to Diana Glenn, an instructional dean at COCC. Glenn said the institute was increasing its enrollment next year and would be breaking ground for a new building in two weeks.

The new location, slated to open in fall 2011, will allow the program to include new courses that bring the study of health and the study of nutrition together.

Julian Darwin, the school’s program coordinator, said the course in sustainability was one new offering that was simply zeroing in on something that’s long been a focus for chefs.

“Chefs have always tried to find the best product they can,” Darwin said. “If it travels miles to get here, it’s not as good. So, chefs have gone to farmers markets for years.”

for example that people role-playing as landlords will ramp up their anger before confronting a tenant about late rent.

Obama’s analytical composure likely comes so easily because it has served him well repeatedly, Tamir said.

“If staying calm and patient and confident is what has worked for you in crisis situations in the past, then subconsciously it may become automatic. And the more automatic it becomes, the less of the actual anger, or panic, you feel.”

The most socially skilled among us — those who project the emotions they intend, when they intend to — are not wedded to any one strategy, Hofmann argues.

In a paper published last month with Todd Kashdan of George Mason University, he proposed that emotion researchers adopt a questionnaire to measure three components of regulation: concealing (i.e. suppression), adjusting (quickly calming anger, for instance) and tolerating (openly expressing emotion).

“These are each valuable strategies, in different situations,” Hofmann said. “The people who get into trouble socially, I believe, are the ones who are inflexible. Who stick to just one.”

Continued from A1 And Huffman, a Lewis & Clark law professor who has never held political office, may face even higher hurdles than Merkley did two years ago, said Oregon State University Political Science Professor Bill Lunch.

“If 2008 was a wave year, then 2010 might be a wave year as well,” Lunch said.

“Republicans will have a good year — the question is how good and how far the tide that’s flowing in their favor will lift the prospects for candidates who otherwise wouldn’t have much of a chance.

“It’s not inconceivable, but it strikes me as unlikely to line up exactly that way,” Lunch continued.

In the polls In June 2008, Smith led Merkley by nine percentage points, after Merkley won a bruising Democratic primary over Steve Novick.

Republican pollster Bob Moore, who hasn’t polled for either candidate this race, made the same comparison between Huffman and Merkley in March, when Wyden led 49 percent to 35 percent.

Based on Rasmussen’s poll, that’s still true this week, Moore said.

“The poll numbers, at least, are similar” between WydenHuffman and Smith-Merkley, said Moore, who is based in Portland.

But a Portland Tribune poll taken by the polling firm Davis, Hibbitts & Midghall Inc. earlier this month found a much larger gap. Wyden garnered 50 percent of respondents, to 32 percent for Huffman.

While Huffman’s support has fluctuated in different polls, Wyden’s roughly 50 percent approval rate has stayed steady, which is a bad sign for the incumbent, argued Huffman spokesman John Vinson.

“One number is consistent, and that is Wyden is either just above 50 or just below 50,” Vinson said. “The numbers for Jim are a function of his low name recognition.”

Vinson made the case that it’s only because so many other Democrats are threatened this year that Wyden isn’t considered at risk by any of the major political forecasters.

“There’s just so many other races that are closer, it’s not getting the attention it would in any other year,” Vinson said.

and predicted that casualties would rise in the short term.

“The Taliban know that Kandahar is the key to success or failure,” McCain told a news conference at the airport in Kabul. “So what happens in this operation will have a great effect on the outcome of this conflict. But I am convinced we can succeed ... and Kandahar is obviously the key area. And if succeed there, we will succeed in the rest of this struggle.”

be working against Huffman as well, however. The National Republican Senatorial Committee hasn’t spent much energy in the Oregon race, having issued just one statement on Huffman’s behalf since he was nominated.

With so many other races on its radar, the NRSC has yet to set its sights on Wyden.

A key difference That’s a key difference between Huffman’s race and Merkley’s, where the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee showered Merkley with support even before he won the Democratic nomination. The DSCC picked Merkley’s race early on as a top takeover opportunity, and used its war chest to narrow the money gap between Merkley and Smith, who had amassed $8 million in his campaign fund.

Wyden doesn’t have quite that much money, but his $3.7 million cash on hand as of the end of April put him $3.5 million ahead of Huffman, who collected only $93,000 worth of contributions and donated $250,000 of his own money. He also spent about $100,000.

Huffman’s campaign is hoping that the national party will take notice if the race narrows.

“He’s got all this money, but his poll numbers will close as we go into the fall,” Vinson said. “As this race closes in I think the national view will change and will adjust accordingly.”

Wyden, meanwhile, has largely ignored Huffman, at least in public. Earlier this year, when asked by The Bulletin, Wyden declined to respond to criticism

by Huffman and other Republican candidates. And Wyden’s campaign website doesn’t mention his opponent, instead focusing on his work on popular issues like jobs for soldiers, regulating the oil industry and reforming the Byzantine rules of the U.S. Senate.

As of now, said Lunch, “In Utah, Nevada, Montana, (Huffman) would be in a very strong position indeed. In Oregon, which has a Democratic caste to its electorate, he faces a much tougher challenge.”

NYC struggles to recover unused campaign funds New York Times News Service Few cities are as generous as New York when it comes to matching political contributions raised by candidates for public office. In big election years, the city has given anywhere from $4 million to $42 million to candidates in an effort to limit the influence of special interests and level the playing field.

There were, though, supposed

Work grinds to a halt in the central market in Sao Paulo, Brazil, as soccer fans watching the World Cup see Wesley Sneijder of the Netherlands celebrate his goal against Brazil during a quarterfinal match. Below, sales workers celebrate a goal by Uruguay’s striker Alvaro Pereira against South Africa as they watch a World Cup game in their appliance store in Montevideo.

World Cup Continued from A1 Some workplaces — particularly government ones — are strictly watching that employees aren’t rooting when they should be working. Italy’s Renato Brunetta, minister for public administration, even warned government workers ahead of the tournament: “Fun is one thing, work is another.”

Many other bosses seem only too happy to allow the World Cup into the workplace — perhaps because they share their subordinates’ football obsession.

In the Netherlands, whose team knocked Brazil out in the quarterfinals, the entire country’s quitting time was unofficially moved forward to 1 p.m. on Friday so fans could watch the game.

Adam Gardner, a 31-year-old custodian at Britain’s Cambridge University, said his boss gave him permission to come in early and leave early to root for England — then headed out to watch the game himself.

“A lot of people did. The place was empty,” Gardner said.

German insurer Allianz SE set up viewing areas in its Munich offices for Germany’s match with Serbia and allowed all interested to watch it — as long as they punched out beforehand so they weren’t watching on company time. About 10 percent — 1,100 workers — took the company up on the offer.

“It is really motivating if employees are allowed to watch the World Cup during their work day at the company,” Allianz spokeswoman Vera Werner said. “Some of the managers also came along to watch the game and they saw it as a way to boost their co-workers’ team spirit.”

Researchers at Germany’s Hohenheim University estimate that the average German will devote 15 minutes of work time daily to the World Cup through the tournament. That includes watching games, checking scores on the Internet and taking part in office betting pools.

In the U.S. The U.S. is not as swept by football fever as the rest of the world, but the time difference with South Africa means all matches are taking place during America’s normal work hours.

Nearly 15 million Americans tuned in to ABC for the team’s 2-1 loss to Ghana in extra time, with another 4.5 million watching on the Spanish-language Univision

Continued from A1 “Early in the bond program we were really tight on the scope of some of those early projects to make sure we had enough money to meet all our commitments, so we might look back at those,” Rexford said.

The school board must approve additional projects, the debt service or the tax reduction.

“The last two bond issues, we have not had any extra money left,” Rexford said.

In 1991, Rexford said, the district used the remaining bond funds to do some additional projects and gave some of the funds back to taxpayers.

The remaining funds, divided up amongst all taxpayers, would be a negligible amount.

“It would be hard even to notice on a regular tax bill,” Rexford said. “It would be pennies at most.”

Under budget ...

— making it the most-watched men’s World Cup game ever in the country.

The World Cup is the fourthbiggest “top productivity sapper” in the U.S., based on a nonscientific ranking of top sporting events carried out by Challenger, Gray & Christmas, a workplace consultancy based in Chicago.

The NCAA men’s basketball tournament ranked No. 1 and was followed by NFL fantasy football pools and the Super Bowl.

Economic benefits The World Cup is not exclusively an economic drain. Economists say it boosts consumer spending for things like fan paraphernalia, party supplies and bigger ticket items like widescreen televisions.

Britain’s Centre for Economics and Business Research estimated that despite productivity losses, there will be a net $2.43 billion short-run boost to that country’s GDP in June and July thanks to increased consumer expenditure and business spending on advertising.

South Korean retailer Home Plus is reporting what may be the strangest economic benefit.

It credits fans gathered at big outdoor World Cup rallies, unwilling to miss one minute of the action, for driving a 168 percent increase in sales of adult diapers last month.

And even when it comes to work time, cutting employees some slack can pay off for companies. Challenger, Gray & Christmas CEO John Challenger said employers are “more tolerant about letting people do all sorts of personal endeavors” during the work day because employees also do work during what used to be their personal time.

“Work time and personal time have become much more blurred,” he said.

‘Why fight it?’

Auto information provider Edmunds.com sets up TVs in a large room at the company’s Santa Monica, Calif., headquarters. Company President Avi Steinlauf said staffers as free to watch as long as they get their work done, and some bring laptops into the room to do both at once.

The “why fight it?” concessions perhaps go furthest in Brazil, where the notion of not allowing workers to watch matches — or in most cases, giving them most of the day off to view it with family and friends — would be met with mass revolt.

For Uruguay’s quarterfinal victory over Ghana, government offices shut down at 3 p.m. or simply stopped responding to the public, as did the banking system and most businesses.

For its semifinal match against the Netherlands today, management and unions “in virtually every company” have agreed to modify shifts so that everyone can watch, said the secretary of Uruguay’s powerful metalworkers union, Marcelo Abdala.

Not allowing employees to watch, meanwhile, carries its own risks.

Italy’s Fiat said workers at the Termini Imerese plant staged a two-hour strike to protest the company’s decision not to allow TVs during Italy’s opening game against Paraguay on June 14. The roughly 700 night-shift workers simply walked off the job two hours early — conveniently, a half hour before game time.

Cymtec Systems, a St. Louisbased computer networking company, streamed video to a large central monitor in part so it could keep working.

“If we don’t provide it to all our employees, everyone is going to stream to their PCs” and overload the computer system, CEO Andrew Rubin said.

The leftover funds come after many of the later bond projects were completed well under budget.

Both Miller Elementary on the west side of Bend and Rosland Elementary in La Pine were built for far less than the district originally expected.

Miller Elementary cost about $13.3 million, but the district budgeted about $22 million for the project. Similarly, Rosland was slated to cost about $14 million, but only came to about $10.8 million.

While those large projects

to be limits to the city’s generosity. Candidates who accepted taxpayer money and who did not empty their campaign accounts were obliged by law to return all surplus money.

But the city, while handing out a total of roughly $120 million to candidates over the years, has been unable to recover much of the money it is owed.

Tens of thousands of dollars

and others during the recession have come in under budget, others have cost a great deal more than originally expected.

... and over budget Rexford pointed to Ponderosa Elementary, which was originally slated as a two-wing elementary school rather than a fully built-out four-wing school. The district decided to expand that school during construction to help deal with overcrowding.

The district spent about $2.5 million more than was budgeted to complete that project, Rexford said. But the project served the district well, as today nearly every one of its elementaries is at or below capacity.

“Thank goodness,” he said.

“That was money well-spent.”

An expansion at Mountain View — to add science classrooms, and remodel and renovate other parts of the high school — was budgeted to cost about $6.5 million. It came to a total of about $10 million.

And a Cascade Middle School expansion also came in $2 million over budget.

“Some projects that went over what we had budgeted, like the Mountain View renovation and expansion and the Cascade Middle School expansion, all those were situations where we got into those and clearly, to do the project right and do it once, it was just going to take more budget,” Rexford said.

Now the district is working on finishing up some last projects.

The bond projects are all slated to be completed by early 2011.

that candidates initially reported as surpluses from their campaigns appear to have dribbled away as the city took years auditing campaigns to determine how much might be owed. There are also candidates who are in no apparent hurry to settle up. Today, for instance, two dozen candidates owe a total of $800,000 from publicly subsidized races in 2001, 2003 and 2005.

touches on Rosland Elementary, an addition to the high school and a campus improvement project, all in La Pine. The district will finish up some roof work on Bend High’s technology center, as well as replacing seats and lighting in its auditorium and rebuilding the production kitchen on the Bend High campus.

Some work will continue at Highland Magnet School, and the district will replace the windows and doors in the downtown administration building.

And an addition to Three Rivers School will also be finished in the coming months.

“That’s a pretty good body of work,” Paul Eggleston, the district’s director of facilities, said.

“Sometime in January to March we’ll be done with everything.”

Rexford expects the board to determine its plan for any remaining funds this winter.

Eggleston said he will meet with the construction committee, as well as Superintendent Ron Wilkinson and Rexford to discuss further projects.

“There’s always more to do,” he said.

He noted there were proposed projects that didn’t make the final list in 2006, and those could be potential work for the extra $1 million or $2 million.

“We would go back to that list and cherry-pick some of that stuff,” Eggleston said.

For gun owners, a permit from Utah is a hot ticket

By Dan Frosch New York Times News Service

James Roe, a 64-year-old computer consultant from rural Pennsylvania, spent a recent Saturday in a Pittsburgh suburb learning about riflings, hangfires and powder charges. The gun safety class was for people seeking a concealed-firearm permit in Utah, some 1,500 miles away.

Never mind that Roe has not been to Utah in 20 years and has no plans to visit anytime soon.

Like thousands of other gun owners who will most likely never set foot in Utah, Roe wants a permit there for one reason: It allows him to carry his 45-caliber automatic pistol in 32 other states that recognize or have for-

mal reciprocity with Utah’s gun regulations.

With the Supreme Court ruling last week that the Second Amendment’s guarantee of an individual’s right to bear arms applies to state and local laws, Utah is a popular player in Americans’ efforts to legally obtain firearms. The state is issuing what has become the permit of choice for many gun owners.

Fifteen years after the Utah Legislature loosened rules on concealed firearm permits by waiving residency and other requirements, the state is increasingly attracting firearm owners from throughout the country.

Nearly half of the 241,811 permits granted by the state are now held by nonresidents, according

to the Utah Bureau of Criminal Identification, which administers the permits.

In 2004, Utah received about 8,000 applications for the permits. Last year, 73,925 applications were submitted — with nearly 60 percent coming from nonresidents.

Laws for carrying concealed firearms vary widely by state, as do issuing standards for permits. New York, New Jersey and Connecticut do not honor other states’ permits.

Some states, like Florida, allow nonresidents to qualify for permits. Utah stands out because its permit is relatively inexpensive and is broadly accepted, and the requisite safety class can be taken anywhere.

China urged to release American geologist

STRANDED BY A STRIKE IN INDIA

W B Komorowski wins Polish presidency

By Michael Wines New York Times News Service

BEIJING — American officials reacted with dismay and puzzlement Monday to the eight-year prison sentence imposed on an American geologist because he sold a database on China’s oil industry to a Colorado consulting company.

The geologist, Xue Feng, spent more than two and a half years in jail in China while the case dragged on, and had complained to outsiders seeking his release that his captors had tortured him by pressing lighted cigarettes into his arms and hitting him with an ashtray.

His lengthy sentence, which was not widely reported in the Chinese-language news media, followed intensive efforts on Xue’s behalf by American officials, who met him in jail nearly 30 times and were in the Beijing courtroom where he was sentenced Monday.

The American ambassador to China, Jon Huntsman, later called for Xue to be freed.

“Now that the Chinese legal system has ruled, I believe the time has come for Dr. Xue, who has already been detained for two and a half years, to be released,” Huntsman said in a statement.

Indonesian company accused of clearing rain forests New York Times News Service JAKARTA, Indonesia — The environmental group Greenpeace has accused one of the world’s largest pulp, paper and palm oil companies of aggressively clearing Indonesian rain forests and throwing into doubt a landmark billion-dollar deal

that aims to fight climate change by curbing deforestation.

In a report released Monday, Greenpeace accused a subsidiary of Sinar Mas of secretly planning a massive expansion of pulp mills and cutting down essential forests, including habitats for endangered tigers. An

executive with the subsidiary, Asia Pulp and Paper, denied the charges.

The Greenpeace report says that an internal 2007 document shows that Asia Pulp drew up plans to significantly increase its pulp mill capacity to 17.5 million tons a year from 2.6 million tons.

WARSAW, Poland — Poland chose a rival of the late president over his twin brother in a vote seen as a move away from three months of shock, grief and mourning that followed the death of Lech Kaczynski in a plane crash.

Bronislaw Komorowski was declared the winner Monday, meaning his g o v e r n i n g Bronislaw pro-business Komorowski Civic Platform party now has a year of control of both government and the presidency before the next parliamentary elections.

It represents a chance for them to fulfill promises to dismantle some remnants of the old communist-era welfare state. They have pledged to attack privileges ranging from permanent sick leave to low taxes for rich farmers in an attempt to prevent the European debt crisis from spreading to Poland.

Leftist activist slain in Philippines MANILA, Philippines — An official of the largest leftist political party in the Philippines was shot dead on Monday, in what may have been the first political killing since President Benigno

Aquino took office last week, officials said.

Fernando Baldomero, the chairman of a provincial chapter of the party, Bayan Muna, was killed by an unidentified assailant outside his home while preparing to send his child to school in Aklan Province, according to Rep. Teodoro Casino, a member of the Philippine Congress.

According to human rights groups, more than 1,200 activists have been killed in what they contend is a counterinsurgency campaign by the military focusing on civilians and noncombatants. Government officials have consistently denied that charge.

U.S. won’t forget Georgia, Clinton vows At the end of a trip intended to reassure Russia’s neighbors that the Obama administration would not forget them in its push to improve relations with Moscow, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton resorted to the simplest of diplomatic formulations, telling Georgia the U.S. “can walk and chew gum at the same time.”

Georgia — the only country among them whose relationship with Russia has remained cold — has looked on warily as the relationship between President Barack Obama and President Dmitri Medvedev has deepened.

Clinton has taken pains to convey that Washington will continue to assert itself in the region.

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF BP said to consider selling oil fields LONDON — BP, seeking cash to meet the costs of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, is considering selling fields in Colombia, Venezuela and Vietnam, a person with knowledge of the matter said.

BP, Britain’s largest oil producer, may also dispose of its 60 percent holding in Pan American Energy, Argentina’s second-largest oil producer, the person said, declining to be identified because the information is confidential.

The London-based company has a gas field and pipeline in Vietnam and holds stakes in three production ventures in Venezuela. BP is a partner in Colombia’s two biggest oil fields, where production peaked in 1999.

BP pledged to raise $10 billion through assets sales in the next 12 months to pay the costs of compensating victims of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill caused by the blowout of a well in April.

Toyota recalls about 92,000 cars in Japan TOKYO — Toyota on Monday began recalling more than 90,000 luxury Lexus and Crown vehicles in Japan as part of a global recall over defective engines — the latest setback for the automaker beset with quality problems.

On Friday, Toyota Motor Corp. said it would recall a total of 270,000 Lexus and Crown vehicles worldwide to fix flaws in the valve springs, a crucial engine component, that could make the automobile stall while in motion. That includes 138,000 vehicles in the U.S., 91,903 in Japan, 15,000 in Europe, 10,000 in the Middle East, 6,000 in China, 4,000 in Canada, and 8,000 in other regions.

“We apologize for inconveniencing our customers. We hope to fix the problem soon,” Toyota spokesman Paul Nolasco said in a statement.

Try October

By Tim Doran The Bulletin

Hedge fund fraud suspect kills himself A hedge fund investor wanted by German prosecutors in connection with a bank fraud investigation has died in Majorca, Spain, apparently in a suicide.

The suspect, Dieter Frerichs, 72, died of a gunshot wound Saturday after police officers went to his home in Palma to serve a warrant for extradition to Germany, the Spanish police said Monday.

Frerichs was the director of two hedge funds, K1 Invest and K1 Global, controlled by Helmut Kiener, the founder of the K1 Group. Kiener has been in custody in Wurzburg, Germany, since October on suspicion of operating a pyramid scheme, defrauding thousands of private investors and banks including JPMorgan Chase, Barclays and BNP Paribas of more than 300 million euros, or $375 million.

The FBI is also investigating the group; so are authorities in the British Virgin Islands, Liechtenstein and Switzerland.

‘These guys get it,’ says owner of 7 stands in Central Oregon

By David Holley The Bulletin

S

ix years after they launched their first Dutch Bros. Coffee stand in Central Oregon, Bill and Carol Smith have now opened their seventh.

With that newest stand, the Bend couple employ about 50 people at their drive-through coffee shops in Bend and Redmond. The Smiths have plans to eventually bring the specialty, simple drinks to Sisters and Madras.

“That’s what the company does really well. We serve a good cup of coffee, and it’s consistent,” Bill Smith said.

In addition to the seven local shops, the Smiths co-own three in Spokane,

Wash., with other Bend residents, making them the second-largest Dutch Bros. franchise owner.

In all, 45 franchisees own 155 stands in seven Western states.

Smith, 53, retired to Bend in 1999 after selling a custom printing business he owned in Seattle.

Retirement didn’t sit well with Smith, he said, so he, Carol Smith and a partner invested in their first Dutch Bros. location after visiting the coffee chain’s headquarters in Grants Pass. The third partner is no longer involved.

What hooked Smith was reading the company’s mantra, the “Dutch Creed,” a list of statements encouraging positivity.

Luis Melendez, a distribution clerk with the U.S. Postal Service, participates in a demonstration against a proposal to end Saturday mail delivery, in New York last month.

By David Barboza New York Times News Service

SHENZHEN, China — Last month, while enthusiastic consumers were playing with their new Apple iPhone 4, researchers in Silicon Valley were engaged in something more serious.

They cracked open the phone’s black plastic shell and started analyzing the new model’s components, trying to unmask the identity of Apple’s main suppliers. These “teardown reports” provide a glimpse into a company’s manufacturing.

What the latest analysis shows is that the smallest part of Apple’s costs are here in Shenzhen, where assembly-line workers snap together things like microchips from Germany and Korea, American-made chips that pull in Wi-Fi or cell phone signals, a touch-screen module from Taiwan and more than 100 other components.

But what it does not reveal is that manufacturing in China is about to get far more expensive. Soaring labor costs caused by worker shortages and unrest, a strengthening Chinese currency that makes exports more expensive, and inflation and rising housing costs are all threatening to sharply increase the cost of making devices like notebook computers, digital cameras and smart phones.

Opinions split on ending Saturday mail delivery

By Yeganeh June Torbati New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — As federal regulators consider a proposal to cut most Saturday postal deliveries, the business community is sharply divided about the consequences of switching to five-day service.

Some, like Donald Hall Jr., chief executive of Hallmark Cards, said that eliminating Saturday delivery and raising prices even incrementally would drive more business away from the U.S. Postal Service, resulting in a “slippery slope.”

But others, like Andrew Rendich, the chief service and DVD operations of-

ficer at Netflix, said five-day delivery would be a better alternative to significantly higher postal rates. “Big rate increases will absolutely squash business and will absolutely slow growth for a company like Netflix,” Rendich said.

The post office estimates that cutting Saturday delivery would result in savings of $3 billion a year, though the Postal Regulatory Commission, which will make a recommendation to the Postal Service on its proposal, estimates smaller savings, about $2 billion a year.

The commission begins hearings on the service changes on July 12.

Pacific Power customers who failed to submit applications for a pilot solar-energy program in time last week can try again in three months.

The utility’s available slots in round one of the Oregon Solar Incentive Program were gone in 15 minutes, according to a Pacific Power news release. Applications for the second round of the program, which pays customers for generating solar power, will be taken at 8 a.m. Oct. 1.

And other incentives are available, too, for reducing installation costs, said Kelli Hewitt, president of E2 Solar, a contractor in Bend.

“We still have great incentive programs,” she said. “This is just an option that’s been presented in 10 minutes. For 10 years now, we’ve had (incentive programs).”

The pilot program, which the Legislature created last year, is scheduled to last four years, and after Oct. 1, new applications will be taken every six months, through Oct. 1, 2013, according to the utility companies.

But the amount of power to be generated over the life of the program has been capped at 25 megawatts, which, for comparison, is about enough to power 2,500 homes.

Only a portion of the amount is available in each round, and three utilities — Pacific Power, Portland General Electric and Idaho Power — get to dole it out.

Yahoo will rely on readers to steer the news

By Jeremy W. Peters New York Times News Service

Welcome to the era of the algorithm as editor.

Since the days when hot lead was used to make metal type, the model for generating news has been top-down: Editors determined what information was important and then shared it with the masses.

But with the advent of technology that allows media companies to identify what kind of content readers want, that model is becoming inverted.

The latest and perhaps broadest effort yet in democratizing the news is under way at Yahoo, which today will introduce a news blog that will rely on search queries to help guide its reporting and writing on national affairs, politics and the media.

Search-generated content has been growing on the Internet, linked to the success of companies like Associated Content, which Yahoo recently bought, and Demand Media, which has used freelance writers to create an online library of more than a million instructional articles.

Retailers try to lure customers Virgin America finds with their own stimulus plans a challenging market for startup airlines

By Stephanie Clifford New York Times News Service

Tired of waiting for spending to rebound on its own, retailers are taking matters into their own hands. Stores like Sam’s Club, Target, Toys R Us, Staples and Office Depot are offering unconventional promotions meant not only to attract visitors to stores but also to get them feeling profligate.

Sam’s Club is introducing a program in which it facilitates loans for shoppers of up to $25,000, backed by the Small Business Administration. Target will give its credit card holders 5 percent discounts. Toys R Us is instituting a holiday fund program where it adds to shoppers’ savings, and Staples and Office Depot are giving away office products for a penny or at no cost.

“A lot of the government programs have come to an end,” said David Bassuk, a managing director in the global retail practice at AlixPartners, a financial consultancy. “So retailers are taking it upon themselves to do everything they can to get the consumer to spend, even opening up their own wallets to give money back to the consumer.”

Of the over-the-counter stimulus plans, the one at Sam’s Club is the most unusual.

Sam’s Club began testing the program in May and will soon start marketing SBA loans of $5,000 to $25,000 for its members nationwide. Superior Financial Group, which is managing the loans, gives Sam’s Club members a $100 discount on the application fee and lower interest rates because of how much business it expects to get through the arrangement.

The company says it does not expect the program to be a big moneymaker, though it earns $50 for each financed loan. The point is to get customers spending more freely — and, it hopes, spending at Sam’s Club.

A dream come true Michael Golata was someone who had been watching his spending carefully. As a contractor in Louisville, Ky., for United Parcel Service, he drives emergency medical equipment to hospitals when MRI or CT scan machines break down.

When he asked UPS if more

Tyler Bissmeyer / New York Times News Service

Michael Golata, a contractor for United Parcel Service in Louisville, Ky., was able to purchase another truck after he received a Small Business Administration loan from Sam’s Club. routes were available, the company told him there was so much work that he should bring on as many drivers as he could afford.

There was just one problem: Golata owned one truck, and he was driving it all the time. Online, he had found a used white Dodge Sprinter for $12,500. With just a few thousand dollars in cash, he tried to get a bank loan but was denied by two local banks. He decided an SBA loan would be too much trouble, and he rejected as absurd a loan from a commercial finance company with a 21 percent interest rate and payments of $450 a month.

About a month ago, Golata, a Sam’s Club member, clicked through the retailer’s website and found a page describing SBA loans offered by the retailer. He filled out an online application, and, by the next day, got a phone call from Superior Financial telling him he was approved for a $10,000 loan, with an interest rate of 7.25 percent over 10 years.

“It made the payment, like, $118 a month. I thought I was dreaming,” Golata said.

A little under half of Sam’s members are small-business customers, and they account for

a little more than half of the revenue at the retailer. As its net sales began to slip last fall, Sam’s Club surveyed small-business customers and found that tight credit was partly to blame.

In the survey, said Catherine Corley, vice president for member services at Sam’s Club, a division of Wal-Mart, “fully one-third said, ‘I didn’t buy what I needed to buy at Sam’s Club because I didn’t have the money.’ It really motivated us to say, ‘We’ve got to find some solutions.’ ”

Other deals Other retailers are taking slightly different routes to economic recovery. Beginning in the fall, Target will offer its holders of its Target-branded credit and debit cards 5 percent off every purchase. Target expects that it will add a percentage point to comparable-store sales in the fourth quarter.

Toys R Us is asking consumers to create a sort of grown-up piggy bank, and put money into a holiday fund that can be spent only at the toy store. Toys R Us will add 3 percent to the account’s balance in mid-October.

News Continued from B1 But the use of search data has been limited more to the realm of “how to” topics like “How do I teach my dog sign language?” than questions about the news of the day like “Where does Elena Kagan stand on corporate campaign donations?”

Yahoo software continuously tracks common words, phrases and topics that are popular among users across its vast online network. To help create content for the blog, called The Upshot, a team of people will analyze those patterns and pass along their findings to Yahoo’s news staff of two editors and six bloggers.

The news staff will then use that search data to create articles that — if the process works as intended — will allow them to focus more precisely on readers.

“We feel like the differentiator here; what separates us from a lot of our competitors is our ability to aggregate all this data,” said James Pitaro, vice president of Yahoo Media. “This idea of creating content in response to audience insight and audience needs is one component of the strategy, but it’s a big component.”

In strictly economic terms, the power of technology that identifies reader trends is incredibly potent as a draw for advertisers. Yahoo paid more than $100 million this year for Associated Content, which pays writers small sums to write articles based on queries like “How do I tile a floor?” or “How do I make French toast?”

“They have a tremendous potential power to wring highervalue advertisers out of targeted content,” said Ken Doctor, a media analyst and author of “Newsonomics: Twelve New Trends That Will Shape the News You Get.” To demonstrate the power of search technology as editor, Pitaro is fond of telling a story about one of the most popular articles to appear on Yahoo’s sports news site during the 2008 Summer Olympics.

Yahoo had been monitoring search traffic patterns and noticed that its users kept trying to

Office Depot is literally giving away products. Trying to lure back-to-school shoppers, it will soon sell some supplies, like glue sticks and scissors, for less than $1. It also will give away other items, like markers, free, even without a purchase.

Staples, meanwhile, is offering several products for a nickel or a penny, and when shoppers buy a backpack during the back-toschool period, Staples will give them a gift card equal to the cost of the backpack.

“On that particular one, we probably don’t make money, but in general what we’re hoping to do is get customers into our stores,” said Demos Parneros, president of U.S. stores for Staples, “and then buy everything else that they need.”

Of course, smart shoppers can take advantage of these programs without necessarily improving the stores’ revenues.

Golata, the truck driver, said he was delighted with the loan program. But if the point of it was to free up his cash at Sam’s Club, it didn’t quite work. Golata is now saving again — so he can get another Sam’s Club loan in six months and buy another delivery vehicle.

editor obsolete, The Upshot’s editor, Andrew Golis, laughed.

“I certainly don’t hope that,” Golis said, adding that he and Yahoo’s other journalists would use the search data as a supplemental tool. “The information is valuable because editors can integrate it into their decision-making. It’s an asset. It’s a totally amazing and useful tool that we have at Yahoo.

But it does not lead Yahoo editorial content.”

J. Emilio Flores / New York Times News Service

James Pitaro, vice president of Yahoo Media, says his company’s ability to aggregate massive amounts of data sets it apart from the competition. find out why divers would shower after they got out of the water. So Yahoo sports writers looked into the question and posted an item titled “The mystery of the showering divers.” (It turns out the warm water from the showers keeps divers’ muscles limber. Their muscles contract when they emerge from the warm water into the cool air.)

“So while our competition was covering a lot of the bigger, broader topics, we were covering topics that were a little bit more behind the scenes,” Pitaro said.

This niche approach to the news, filling in gaps in the coverage where other media outlets are not providing content, is the best way Pitaro feels The Upshot (at news.yahoo.com/upshot) can gain traction in a crowded media landscape.

“If you’re a news startup, focusing on breadth would be the wrong way to go,” he said. “What we’re seeing is the market getting increasingly fragmented. And because of that you can survive by owning a niche category.”

The Yahoo model, which flies in the face of a centuries-old approach to disseminating the news, is certain to be viewed suspiciously by journalism purists.

“There’s obviously an embedded negative view toward using any type of outside information to influence coverage,” said Robert-

son Barrett, chief strategy officer of Perfect Market Inc., a company that helps news organizations make their content more detectible to search engine algorithms.

Barrett, a former publisher for the website of The Los Angeles Times, said many mainstream media outlets would start to come around to the idea if they did not feel pressured to let it affect their coverage.

“There’s a middle ground here in which publishers and news organizations can learn a lot about their audiences and what they want in real time and take that into account generally,” he said.

“But that does not need to affect the specific story assignments.”

Yahoo news editors say they intend to be selective in using the data. The tricky question for Yahoo becomes how much it will insulate its editorial decision-making from the very businesslike thinking that has made Associated Content and Demand Media successful.

“Essentially those in charge of analytics-driven content say, ‘These journalists, they only got it half right. Why produce all this stuff that doesn’t make money?

Just produce the stuff that sells,’ ” Doctor said.

Asked whether he was concerned that signing up with Yahoo had rendered his career as an

In the airline industry, the fittest do not always survive.

But that has not stopped startup carriers like Virgin America from trying.

Virgin, now nearly 3 years old, introduced service from San Francisco and Los Angeles to Toronto last week — its first international destination — and announced plans to fly to Mexico next winter. But its mixed efforts to expand into other markets in the United States illustrate many of the barriers that new airlines face, particularly as big competitors consolidate and expand their global reach.

Industry experts offer a long list of challenges faced by startup carriers, as well as discount airlines like Southwest and JetBlue. That list includes access to takeoff slots and gates at desirable airports, restrictions on foreign investment in American airlines and rules preventing foreign carriers from flying within the United States — all hurdles that Virgin America has had to overcome.

And because the big legacy carriers benefit from global networks, government policies that favor them and the marketing advantages that come with size — particularly when negotiating contracts for lucrative corporate travel — industry analysts question whether smaller carriers will be able to stay in business.

“King Solomon couldn’t start a U.S. domestic airline these days,” said Hubert Horan, an aviation consultant.

Find It All Online bendbulletin.com

Last week, in a telephone conversation after the Virgin America plane touched down in Toronto, three of the airline’s principals — Richard Branson, the British founder of the Virgin Group who owns a stake in Virgin America; Don Carty, the chairman of the airline; and David Cush, its chief executive — had their own differences on the issue of competition.

Discussing the challenges ahead, all three men agreed that access to gates and slots at major airports like Chicago O’Hare and Newark Liberty, which Virgin America has so far been unsuccessful at negotiating, is central to the airline’s growth. Analysts have more pointedly said that this growth is necessary for Virgin America’s survival, after the company reported an operating loss of $22 million on revenue of $147 million in the first quarter.

Cush attributed the loss primarily to higher-than-expected fuel costs and a typically soft winter season. He reiterated his earlier statements that Virgin America would be profitable for the full year.

Yet on the topic of consolidation, and the effect of mergers and alliances on the ability of smaller carriers to compete, some differences of opinion emerged.

“Will consolidation lead to less competition? My view is that it does not,” said Carty, who was previously the chairman of AMR Corp., the parent company of American Airlines.

Branson, on the other hand, argued that not all consolidation is good, citing the alliance between British Airways and American Airlines, both competitors to Virgin Atlantic, as “one consolidation too many.”

T F Flop after flop, Microsoft struggles to stay relevant B y Ashlee Vance New York Times News Service

“Microsoft is totally off the radar of the cool, hip, cutting-edge software developers. And they are largely out of the consciousness of your average developer.”

— Tim O’Reilly, publisher of a popular line of software development guides

The list of Microsoft’s consumer product slip-ups grows each year. Its line of intelligent watches — come and gone — often ends up as the butt of jokes, as do its tablet PC software products, the poor-selling Windows Vista operating system and the ignored Zune music player. The company also canceled its Courier tablet PC project shortly after the Apple iPad tablet went into stores.

Microsoft employees were dismayed when they anonymously visited Verizon stores and discovered that employees for the carrier were reluctant to sell the Kin, said a Microsoft executive close to the Kin project. Verizon, the only carrier behind the Kin, tended to promote phones running Google’s Android software.

“It was killed abruptly because no one was buying it and there no was no credible reason to believe anyone would,” this person said.

Fewer than 10,000 Kins were sold.

O’Reilly said the quick cancellation of the Kin may demonstrate that Microsoft has finally seen the depth of its woes when it comes to attracting consumers and younger audiences.

“This should be seen as a success for them,” O’Reilly said.

“They grew fat and happy, but are now waking up to their different competitive position.”

The startup problem O’Reilly traces part of the problem back to the company’s developers. Microsoft spends a great deal of time and money shepherding a vast network of companies and people that base their livelihoods on improving and supporting Microsoft’s products. These software developers and technicians have bet their careers on Microsoft and largely benefited from that choice. In addition, they have helped keep Microsoft relevant during the various ups and downs in the technology market.

But the recent crops of computer science graduates and

it created a pair of programs that give students free access to Microsoft’s business and developer software. In addition, Microsoft allows some startups to run their operations on its software at no cost over a limited period of time.

About 35,000 startups have been involved in the program since it began, the company said.

“For the most part, Microsoft has been great to work with,” said Mark Davis, the chief executive of Virsto, a software startup that received aid from Microsoft.

“It’s funny to be in Silicon Valley and say that.”

Others, however, laugh at the idea that Microsoft requires the startups to meet certain guidelines and jump through hoops to receive software, when its freesoftware competitors simply allow anyone to download products off a website with the click of a button.

“We got introduced to Microsoft through our investors,” Davis said. “They don’t do this for just anybody.”

startups have tended to move far afield from Microsoft, O’Reilly said.

The vast majority of technology startups today rely on opensource software, distributed by Microsoft competitors, for the core parts of their technology infrastructure.

And so the technology-minded people coming out of college have started learning their craft on free software and betting their careers on non-Microsoft wares.

“We did not get access to kids as they were going through college,” Bob Muglia, the president of Microsoft’s business software group, acknowledged in an interview last year. “And then, when people, particularly younger people, wanted to build a startup, and they were generally undercapitalized, the idea of buying Microsoft software was a really problematic idea for them.”

The loss of access to startups has already proved damaging to Microsoft as companies like Facebook and Twitter that rely on free software have grown from fledgling operations to Silicon Valley’s latest booming enterprises.

Microsoft has tried to court young developers and young companies. In November 2008,

uct with the technology. In April, Microsoft finally introduced the fruits of this labor when it unveiled the Kin phones.

In contrast, Google, a chief Microsoft rival, also bought a mobile technology startup — Android. Both Android and Danger were co-founded by Andy Rubin, who joined Google.

Google has since turned the Android software into the foundation of a fast-growing mobile phone empire, with carriers all over the world releasing products that use the technology.

Microsoft, however, has reassigned the Kin development team and put it to work on Windows Phone 7, yet another mobile phone platform, expected later this year. “For developers, mobile is what’s hip now, and there are two platforms that matter — Apple and Android,” O’Reilly said.

In May, Microsoft announced a shakeup of its consumer and entertainment division with the retirement of the group’s head, Robert Bach, and the departure of an important designer, J Allard.

Steven Ballmer, the company’s chief executive, now has the heads of the main consumer and entertainment-oriented products reporting directly to him.

While Ballmer has been praised for increasing Microsoft’s main, old-line businesses, he has come under increasing fire for failing to read changing trends in the market and capitalize on them.

Nowhere is that more apparent than in Microsoft’s come-frombehind strategy in the consumer device market.

In 2008, Microsoft acquired a startup, Danger, that had built popular mobile phone software, hoping that technology would revitalize its waning phone software business. But Microsoft stumbled as it took longer than expected to create a new prod-

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif.

— Microsoft’s engineers and executives spent two years creating a new line of smart phones with playful names that sounded like creatures straight out of “The Cat in the Hat” — Kin One and Kin Two. Stylish designs, an emphasis on flashy social-networking features and an all-out marketing blitz were meant to prove that Microsoft could build the right products at the right time for the most finicky of customers — gossiping youngsters with gadget skills.

But last week, less than two months after the Kins arrived in stores, Microsoft said it would kill the products.

“That’s a record-breaking quick end to a product, as far as I am concerned,” said Michael Cronan, a designer who helped drive the branding of products like Kindle for Amazon and TiVo. “It did seem like a big mistake on their part.”

The Kins’ flop adds to a long list of products — from watches to music players — that have plagued Microsoft’s consumer division, while its business group has suffered as well through lessthan-successful offerings like Windows Vista and Windows for tablet computers.

In particular, the Kin debacle is a reflection of Microsoft’s struggle to deliver what the younger generation of technology-obsessed consumers wants. From hand-held products to business software, Microsoft seems behind the times.

Part of its problem may be that its ability to intrigue and attract software developers is also waning, which threatens its ability to steer markets over the long term.

When it comes to electronic devices, people writing software have turned their attention to platforms from Apple and Google.

Meanwhile, young technology companies today rely on free, open-source business software rather than Microsoft’s products, so young students, soon to be looking for jobs, have embraced open-source software as well.

“Microsoft is totally off the radar of the cool, hip, cutting-edge software developers,” said Tim O’Reilly, who publishes a popular line of software development guides. “And they are largely out of the consciousness of your average developer.”

The Xbox 360 gaming console and its complementary online services have been a rare hit with consumers. Still, being hip matters only so much for Microsoft, whose profits remain the envy of the business world. Microsoft’s software, including Windows and Office, remain the dominant standard around the world and afford the company an ability to experiment wherever it pleases.

“When you look at the overall numbers and who buys and uses our products, I think our track record is pretty good with all demographics,” said Frank Shaw, Microsoft’s head of communications. “We really do think about serving billions of people and are on a playing field that nobody else in the industry is.”

Sony Music broadens definition of a record company

By Eric Pfanner New York Times News Service

At an outdoor theater in Berlin that has played host to U2, REM and the Rolling Stones, Sony Music Entertainment plans to stage a different kind of show next month.

Before an expected sellout crowd of 22,000, three men, dressed in red, white and blue jumpsuits, will bound onto the stage. But instead of belting out a rock anthem, they will take turns reading from a children’s detective novel in the “Three Investigators” mystery series.

The books have a cult following in Germany, and smaller shows in other German cities, feeding on Generation X nostalgia for the series, sold more than 100,000 tickets last autumn.

That provides welcome revenue for Sony Music, which, like other music companies, is scrambling to make up for falling compact disc sales. As it does so, it is broadening the definition of a record company, embracing businesses that sometimes have only a tenuous connection to music.

“Three years ago I said, ‘Look, we are dying, we have to go into new businesses,’ ” Rolf SchmidtHoltz, chief executive of Sony Music, said in an interview.

Now he is highlighting the business potential of such initiatives in an effort to quiet internal critics who see Schmidt-Holtz, who has a background in TV and magazines, as insufficiently focused on music. Company insiders, who did not want to be named because the Sony Corp. does not publish financial information for Sony Music, say that in the current fiscal year, businesses that did not exist when Schmidt-Holtz took over as chief executive in 2006 are expected to generate more than $300 million in revenue, and more than $40 million in profit. That would be about one-tenth of Sony Music’s total revenue and more than onequarter of its overall earnings.

Sony Music is not alone among the four major record companies in moving beyond its traditional business of prowling nightclubs to hunt for talent, luring artists into recording studios and stamping out compact discs. The others — the Universal Music Group, the Warner Music Group and EMI Music — are also taking steps in this direction.

“Because the music industry has gone through such a bad time, if anyone stumbles across areas for new revenue, they will all explore it,” said Simon Dyson, editor of Music & Copyright, a trade publication.

But Sony has perhaps gone further than its rivals in moving beyond its traditional business in a transformation led by SchmidtHoltz, a relative outsider to the music business.

Among Sony Music’s nontraditional businesses, the most lucrative, typically generating more than 30 percent of the company’s profit, is its relationship with Simon Cowell, the British entrepreneur behind television talent shows like “The X Factor.”

Cowell’s shows, which have been spun off into dozens of other markets, have started the careers of numerous chart-toppers, including Susan Boyle, the homespun Scot who revealed a powerful singing voice on “Britain’s Got Talent” two years ago.

In other new businesses, Sony is using its knowledge of the music business in some new ways.

Last year, for example, the company signed an agreement with the province of San Luis in Argentina, under which Sony acts almost as a consultant, helping the government develop cultural activities in the region.

While Schmidt-Holtz is enthusiastic about his efforts to diversify the company’s revenue sources, some rivals at other record companies sniff that this is an admission that Sony Music struggles to compete in the core business of signing and promoting musical talent.

Sony’s recording business has actually performed well recently, its share of the worldwide music market rising to 23 percent last year from 21 percent in 2008, according to Music & Copyright. That helped it gain ground against the leader, Universal, with a 28 percent share, and kept it well ahead of Warner, at 15 percent, and EMI, at 10 percent.

3-D gadgets, no glasses required

By Anne Eisenberg

The Samsung W960, which is available in South Korea for about $150, is part of the new market in mobile 3-D devices that don’t require glasses.

Glasses-free 3-D effects are easier to produce on a small, portable screen because the viewer can easily adjust the angle and position of the display to take best advantage of the 3-D view.

New York Times News Service

Smart phones are getting smarter. Now some new models even offer games or television broadcasts in three dimensions — and you don’t need special glasses to see the show.

Traditional 3-D technology used for movie screens and television superimposes or alternates two views, using filters or shutters in the glasses to select a view for each eye. This creates an illusion of depth. But a new generation of devices, many of them hand-held and now in prototype, dispense with the pesky glasses. Instead, they use optics and other technology built into the display to steer one view directly to the left eye, and the other view to the right.

Glasses-free 3-D effects are easier to produce on a small, portable screen than on a large, stationary one, said Paul Semenza, a senior vice president at the market researcher DisplaySearch in Santa Clara, Calif. That’s because the viewer can easily adjust the angle and position of the display by hand to take best advantage of the 3D view.

“You can put yourself in the sweet spot,” he said. “That easy, intuitive adjustment viewers can make is one of the reasons that this technology will probably succeed in the mobile space.”

The devices offer extra drama for sports broadcasts. Footballs or baseballs “seem to pop out of the display as through they were headed right toward you,” said Chris Chinnock, president of Insight Media, a marketing research firm in Norwalk, Conn.

On mobile devices, 3-D works well for advertising, he said.

“The 3-D process can throw the spotlight very effectively on an icon or product,” he said.

Cans of soda, for example, can emerge dramatically from the background.

Samsung Electronics introduced its 3-D W960 touchscreen phone in May in South Korea, and customers are already using it to watch TV shows and music videos, said Eunju Hwang, a spokeswoman for the company in Seoul. The retail price is about $150, but

New York Times News Service

prices may vary among carriers, Hwang said.

Other companies have also announced glasses-free mobile 3-D displays, Semenza said.

At a video game industry trade show last month in Los Angeles, Nintendo, for example, demonstrated a 3-D portable game device that requires no special eyewear. Nokia has demonstrated a 3-D cell phone, he said, and Hitachi is selling a 3-D phone in Japan.

The market for glasses-free, or “auto-stereoscopic,” 3-D is small right now, Semenza said, but will grow rapidly as the technology is incorporated into laptops, notebooks, digital cameras, camcorders, digital picture frames and game devices.

The company is forecasting that about 1.7 million glasses-free 3D units will be sold worldwide in 2011, including about 1.3 million 3-D mobile phones.

Many companies are competing to be part of this projected 3-D wave. For example, 3M in St. Paul, Minn., has developed an optical film coupled to banks of light-emitting diodes, or LEDs, mounted within the left

and right sides of the display, said Erik Jostes, director of the company’s optical systems division. Light from the LEDs shines through the film to project images to the left eye and then to the right eye.

Microsoft has created a prototype for an auto-stereoscopic display that viewers needn’t adjust by hand to find the sweet spot. Instead, an unusual lens paired with cameras in the display keep track of where the viewer is, then steer separate, narrow columns of video to each eye, said Steven Bathiche, director of research for Microsoft’s applied sciences group. In the future, he said, the light-steering technology can be used for 3-D televisions, laptops and mobile phones.

To build the prototype, the researchers bought a 3-D television that refreshes at 120 hertz rather than the typical 60 hertz of a standard TV, so could provide a refresh rate of 60 hertz for each of the two video beams.

At a rate of less than 60 hertz, and the eye perceives flicker.

“We threw out the glasses, took the TV apart and replaced

the backlight with our lens, camera controls and LEDs,” he said. Light from the LEDs is sent bouncing through a thin, wedge-shaped lens created by Adrian Travis, a member of the group.

“The LEDs are programmed to send out the light in relation to where the head-tracking cameras say you are,” he said.

The team is now working on a 240-hertz version with four beams of light, so that two people, for example, can watch 3-D shows. They will even be able to watch separate shows on the same television, he said, as the display steers one channel to one viewer and the other to the second. In the future, the same concept can be applied to games, he said, with each person having a private full-screen display.

Although the work is still in the early stages, Bathiche is looking forward to a commercial version of this device one day. Should that happen, fights over the remote may cease.

“I can sit and watch sports,” he said, “and my wife can watch opera.”

Dutch Bros.

Continued from B1 “These guys get it,” Smith said of company founders Dane and Travis Boersma. “This is something I’d like to be a part of.”

That positive attitude is abundant in Dutch Bros. employees, frequently twentysomethings who are energetic, talkative and friendly. Energy is something Smith said he looks for in employees, adding that customers respond to the friendliness and speedy service.

He said workers often have drinks ready for regulars before they’ve even pulled up to the drive-through window.

“As much as it’s the coffee, it’s also the people,” Smith said about the culture he tries to create for his stands. “They look at their job as a way to brighten someone’s day.”

Founded in 1992 by the Boersma brothers, who were previously dairy farmers, Dutch Bros. has always carried a gregarious mentality. While most of the 1,500 employees are paid directly by the local franchise owners, the Dutch Bros. company does own 20 of its own stands, particularly in Grants Pass and Idaho, and employs 20 people at its headquarters, said Jamie Godfrey, a spokeswoman.

Since the company’s founding, it has expanded rapidly.

The new Bend location, at 62995 N. U.S. Highway 97, is listed on www.dutchbros.com along with three other newly opened stands in Roseburg, Arizona and California.

Chris Ryan, editor of Portland-based Fresh Cup magazine, said he has seen Dutch Bros.’ presence grow in Portland recently. Despite many consumers shedding luxuries like coffee to save money, Ryan said coffee shops have been able to weather the tough economic times better than some other businesses.

“A lot of consumers have found that it’s one of those affordable luxuries,” Ryan said, adding that independent stores have seen the most growth in the coffee beverage industry.

Smith said business did take a dive a couple of years ago, when economic trouble struck in 2008. Dutch Bros. implemented its second price increase in six years about two years ago, Smith said; 12- to 20-ounce specialty drinks like mochas now run from $2.50 to $3.75.

But Smith also implemented some deals, such as a happy hour from 1 to 4 p.m. in Bend and Redmond.

“Bend is a very depressed town,” Smith said. “It’s one thing we can do to help our customers. It’s worked out very well.”

Based on Dutch Bros.’ formula for franchising — one stand for every 10,000 people — Smith said there’s room for at least one more stand in Bend, and possibly more if the city continues to grow. Like Ryan, Smith said people still will buy coffee when they’re skimping on spending elsewhere. “(Coffee) is not recessionproof, but recession-resistant,” Smith said.

Bend is has a plethora of coffee shops, so many that it could seem to be too many for a city of its size. In addition to Dutch Bros., there are about seven in-

Solar Continued from B1 Pacific Power, which offers the program in Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties, estimated about 75 projects statewide gained initial approval on Thursday.

Under the pilot program, customers who install new solar systems will sign a 15-year contract with the utility, which will pay them an amount monthly for every kilowatt-hour of energy they produce, up to a point.

Lawmakers created the program to learn whether it’s effective to pay for electricity delivered by solar power systems.

The payments serve to offset the cost of installing the solar systems, and the contracts with the power companies go to the new owner if a home is sold.

In the first round, the Oregon Public Utility Commission ruled Pacific Power would pay its Central Oregon customers 55 cents per kilowatt-hour.

The rate varied across the state. Participants in Western and Southern Oregon received a rate of 60 or 65 cents per kilowatt-hour. Those areas get less sunshine, so customers needed more incentive, the PUC concluded.

Rates will be reviewed and, if necessary, adjusted. The rate for Oct. 1 contracts has not

dependent stores downtown, 10 Starbucks locations — including standalone cafes and shops within supermarkets — and many other locations that serve coffee drinks.

Because Bend is known for having a strong culinary market, it’s no surprise that it has so many coffee shops, said Courtney Linville, public relations coordinator for the Bend Chamber of Commerce.

“The chamber is really excited to see businesses expand,” she said. “It’s just great to know the entrepreneurship is still alive and well in Bend, Oregon.”

Anyone hoping to open a Dutch Bros. stand must be a current franchise owner or employee. Smith, who also develops commercial real estate, said he hadn’t heard of Dutch Bros. before he moved to Bend.

But he said the transition to coffee has been seamless, and Dutch Bros. has been beneficial in less tangible ways. It’s a good conversation starter, for example.

When Smith meets new people and they find out he owns Dutch Bros. stands, they want to talk about it all night, he said.

It wasn’t always that way.

“When I was in printing, people would ask, ‘What do you do?’ ” Smith said. He would tell them he owned a printing business. “That’s the end of the conversation.”

Bill Smith answered the following questions during an interview at his office, which is next to his first Dutch Bros. location at 1143 N.E. Third St., in Bend:

Q:

How do you find so many energetic people?

Couldn’t someone just pretend to be energetic during an interview to get the job?

What we do is work them in our stand. It’s an onthe-job interview.

A:

Q:

Though Dutch Bros. has a few sit-down coffee shops in other cities, the vast majority are drive-through stands. Do you think Bend will ever have a sit-down Dutch Bros.?

The founders don’t want us to do that. What we are is a great drive-through coffee shop. … The founders studied Les Schwab and In-NOut Burger (when they were starting Dutch Bros.). What those people do is they’re all about the customers and what they do. Les Schwab doesn’t rebuild engines. … In-N-Out doesn’t sell wraps.

A:

Q: A:

How did you know Dutch Bros. would be a success in Bend?

I didn’t know that for sure. I did know that one of my favorite things in my life is drinking coffee. I was just very taken by the values of the founders. … Every day I’m blown away by what a good job we do.

Q: A:

What do you look for when you’re picking a new location?

High traffic counts. Great visibility on the site. A site that offers good access. The right town.

been set, said Bob Valdez, PUC spokesman.

However, for future rounds, the commission may cut the rate up to 10 percent, Valdez said.

Any excess power will be donated to programs to help the poor pay their utility bills.

The per-kilowatt-hour rate also will be reduced by the amount Pacific Power charges for its electricity. So if the utility charges 9 cents per kilowatt-hour, that amount would be subtracted, leaving a net rate of 45 cents.

Those enrolled in the pilot program also will not be able to take advantage of other state incentives for solar power installations, but they will be eligible for federal tax credits, according to the PUC. The state incentives, however, can be significant. For solar electric systems, it can mean up to $20,000 in cash and $6,000 in state tax credits. The incentives can reduce the installation costs by more than 50 percent, based on the Energy Trust of Oregon’s energy calculator.

Hewitt, of E2 Solar, said those interested in solar power should look at all their options.

“It’s something that people really need to research,” she said, “and pick the incentive program that’s right for them.”

Tim Doran can be reached at 541-383-0360, or at tdoran@ bendbulletin.com.

Postal Continued from B1 In addition to eliminating most Saturday deliveries, the post office has proposed cutting its work force through attrition and wants the option to raise prices above the rate of inflation for some classes of mail.

Ruth Goldway, chairwoman of the regulatory commission, said that part of the agency’s goal was to determine whether moving to five-day delivery would ultimately harm the service even if it would be helpful in the short term.

“The real communication networks have to be 24/7,” Goldway said. “The Postal Service, in fact, should be expanding its accessibility and delivery capability to meet those needs. The long-term future of the Postal Service may be limited by their interest in reducing service today.”

A new reality A recent joint hearing of Senate and House committees offered a preview of the debate expected to play out before the commission.

Executives from several businesses that make heavy use of the postal service, including Hall of Hallmark and Rendich of Netflix, disagreed on the long-term viability of a five-day delivery plan.

Small businesses, large corporations, private citizens and trade associations of all sizes have also weighed in at hearings conducted by the regulatory commission around the country. The volume of first-class mail, used by businesses for invoices, account statements and advertisements, fell 15 percent from 2006 to 2009, according to the Postal Service. The

China Continued from B1 Desperate factory owners are already shifting production away from this country’s dominant electronics manufacturing center in Shenzhen toward lower-cost regions far west of here, even deep in China’s mountainous interior.

At the end of June, a manager at Foxconn Technology — one of Apple’s major contract manufacturers — said the company planned to reduce costs by moving hundreds of thousands of workers to other parts of China, including the impoverished Henan province.

While the labor involved in the final assembly of an iPhone accounts for a small part of the overall cost — about 7 percent, by some estimates — analysts say most companies in Apple’s supply chain — the chip makers and battery suppliers and those making plastic moldings and printed circuit boards — depend on Chinese factories to hold down prices.

And those factories now seem likely to pass along their cost increases.

“Electronics companies are trying to figure out how to deal with the higher costs,” says Jenny Lai, a technology analyst at CLSA, an investment bank based in Hong Kong. “They’re already squeezed, so squeezing more costs out of the system won’t be easy.”

Apple can cope better than most companies because it has fat profit margins of as much as 60 percent and pricing power to absorb some of those costs. But makers of personal computers, cell phones and other electronics — including Dell, Hewlett-Packard and LG — deal with profit margins of 2 to 5 percent, according to several analysts. “The challenges are going to be much bigger for them,” Lai said. Most other industries, from textiles and toys to furniture, are under considerably more pressure.

Following the chain One way to understand the changes taking shape in southern China is to follow the supply chain of the iPhone 4, which was designed by Apple engineers in the United States, sourced with high-tech components from around the world and assembled in China. Shipped back to the United States, the iPhone is priced at $600, though the cost to consumers is less, subsidized

by AT&T in exchange for service contracts. “China makes very little money on these things,” said Jason Dedrick, a professor at Syracuse University and co-author of several studies of Apple’s supply chain. Much of the value in high-end products is captured at the beginning and end of the process, by the brand and the distributors and retailers.

4’s parts goes to its chip suppliers, like Samsung, Toshiba and Broadcom, which supply crucial components, like processors and the device’s flash-memory chip.

In the iPhone 4, more than a dozen integrated circuit chips account for about two-thirds of the cost of producing a single device, according to iSuppli.

Apple, for instance, pays Samsung about $27 for flash memory and $10.75 to make its (Apple-designed) applications processor; and a German chip maker called Infineon gets $11.72 a phone for chips that send and receive phone calls and data. Most of the electronics cost much less. The gyroscope, new to the iPhone 4, was made by STMicroelectronics, based in Geneva, and added $2.60 to the cost.

The total bill of materials on a $600 iPhone — the supplies that go into final assembly — is $187.51, according to iSuppli.

Behind the scenes The least expensive part of

the process is manufacturing and assembly. And that often takes place here in southern China, where workers are paid less than a dollar an hour to solder, assemble and package products for the world’s best-known brands.

No company does more of it than Foxconn, a division of the Hon Hai Group of Taiwan, the world’s largest contract electronics manufacturer.

With 800,000 workers in China alone and contracts to supply Apple, Dell and HP, Foxconn is an electronics goliath that also sources supplies, designs parts and uses its enormous size and military-style efficiency to assemble and speed a wide range of products to market.

“They’re like Walmart stores,” Dedrick said. “They’re low-margin, high-volume. They survive by being efficient.”

The world of contract manufacturers is invisible to consumers. But it’s a $250 billion industry, with just a handful of companies like Foxconn, Flextronics

tors it’s creating,” Rush said.

The regulatory commission’s recommendation, which it expects to make in October, will be nonbinding. The final decision will be up to Congress, which since 1983 has required mail delivery six days a week.

Breathing room The Postal Service has also proposed changing a requirement, introduced in 2006, that it pay for the health benefits of its retirees in advance instead of using a pay-as-you-go system. That requirement costs the service about $5.5 billion annually.

“Some people think that if it was given this two- or three-year breather, it could come up with new plans, new ideas and be able to manage once again without taxpayer subsidy for some time to come,” Goldway said. “Without having this kind of breathing room, it’s very hard to do that.”

Few elected officials at the recent joint congressional hearing had anything positive to say about the five-day proposal, raising doubts about its chances. Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., said that the service could lose a significant competitive advantage by cutting Saturday delivery, because other carriers charge more to deliver on weekends.

“Maybe we need to focus on six-day delivery as the lead on how we can compete as opposed to abandoning it first,” she said.

Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, suggested that cost-cutting alone would not save the Postal Service and that instead it should be asking itself how it could become more relevant to people. He said he planned to introduce a bill that would allow the service to cut up to 12 days of delivery a year.

and Jabil Circuit manufacturing and assembling for all the global electronics brands.

They compete fiercely on price to earn small profit margins, analysts say. And they seek to benefit from tiny operational changes.

When a company is operating on the slimmest of profit margins as contract manufacturers are, soaring labor costs pose a serious problem. Wages in China have risen by more than 50 percent since 2005, analysts say, and this year many factories, under pressure from local governments and workers who feel they have been underpaid for too long, have raised wages by an extra 20 to 30 percent.

China’s currency has also appreciated sharply against the U.S. dollar since 2005, and after a two-year pause by Beijing, economists expect the renminbi to rise about 3 to 5 percent a year for the next several years.

“It takes 3,000 procedures to assemble an HP computer,” says Isaac Wang, an iSuppli analyst based in China. “If a contract manufacturer can find a way to save 10 percent of the procedures, then it gets a real good deal.”

Contract manufacturers like Foxconn are now searching for ways to reduce costs. Foxconn is considering moving inland, where wages are 20 to 30 percent lower. The company is also spending heavily on manufacturing many of the parts, molds and metals that are used in computers and handsets, even trying to find larger and cheaper sources of raw material.

“We either outsource the components manufacturing to other suppliers, or we can research and manufacture our own components,” says Arthur Huang, a Foxconn spokesman. “We even have contracts with mines which are located near our factories.”

Unsustainable Many analysts are optimistic the big brands will find new innovations to improve profitability. But within the crowd, there is growing skepticism about China’s manufacturing model after years of pressing workers to toil six or seven days a week, 10 to 12 hours a day.

“We’ve concluded Hon Hai’s labor-intensive model is not sustainable,” says Wang at iSuppli Research. “Though it can keep hiring 800,000 to 1 million workers, the problem is these workers can’t keep working like screws in an inhuman system.”

This type of low-end assembly work is also no longer favored in China, analysts say, because it does not produce big returns for the companies or the country. “China doesn’t want to be the workshop of the world anymore,” says Pietra Rivoli, a professor of international business at Georgetown University and author of “The Travels of a T-Shirt in the Global Economy.”

“The value goes to where the knowledge is.”

Merrill won’t run again in Sisters; 2 others will

By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

At least one new face will be on the Sisters City Council next year because Councilor Bill Merrill, who has served four years, will not run for re-election.

Including Merrill’s, there will be three seats on the November ballot. Councilors Sharleen Weed and Jerry Bogart, whose seats will be up for election, have both said they are planning to run again.

The seats of Mayor Lon Kellstrom and Councilor Pat Thompson will be contested in two years.

The next council will face several financial issues. In recent years, the city has avoided cutting staff and services largely by freezing scheduled cost-ofliving raises for all employees.

If the economy declines further, councilors have worried future budgets could be more severe.

Another major issue will be the fate of the city’s gas tax.

The council passed a 3-cent gas tax in 2009 and, after it was referred to the March 2010 ballot, Sisters voters approved the measure. That vote was challenged in court by local station owners and the Oregon Petroleum Association. Sisters won the case in Deschutes County Circuit Court, but it faces an appeal that could last for more than 18 months.

Shapes

Insurance company seeks $1.5 million from ex-contractor

By Cindy Powers The Bulletin

ELECTION

Classic cars cruise into Redmond’s centennial

Burned home subject of suit

Photos by Rob Kerr

Patterns of shapes made by architecture, people, sunlight and shadow fill this frame I shot during the May 2008 Storm the Stairs running event at Central Oregon Community College in Bend. After identifying the collection of shapes, I timed my shutter releases as the competitors streamed past me. This frame had the timing I had hoped for, and the shot was nearly void of technical demands. I used a medium depth-of-field aperture, manual focus set on a reasonable focus distance, a normal lens and no flash because the sun was at my back.

By Rob Kerr The Bulletin

Shape is the appearance of something as defined by its outline.

For instance, a picture of a locomotive taken from the side forms a rectangle. The use of shapes — spheres, triangles, stars and other less-defined ones — can make your images, and your experience taking pictures, much more interesting and satisfying.

If you learn to see and organize shapes in your pictures, they’ll be more orderly, as well as offering levels of interest beyond the literal action.

As practice, learn to see shapes in everyday life. Next, learn to organize them in ways that might look good in a picture frame. Such visual practice requires no camera or technical demands, but it does build your visual muscle and your confidence.

Once you’re able to see shapes and organize them, try using a camera to stop time.

Magnum Photos founder Henri Cartier-Bresson said that to him, a photograph was an instant drawing.

And he made extremely good ones. He organized lines and shapes and positive and negative space in a single frame with passion and precision.

Flipping photos upside down is another good exercise in seeing shapes. It allows the brain to strip the picture of literal contents so you can see shapes better.

A final exercise is to form each letter of the alphabet in a frame, creating a 26-frame alphabet. Photograph each letter without shooting the letter itself. So rather than zooming in on the letter “P” on a stop sign, find the shape in your visual field, as when a ballerina places a big toe against the knee of her opposite leg in performing a pirouette.. Try this with nonmoving shapes first, then practice stopping the action to make a shape of something fluid. Then move on to organizing several shapes into a pattern.

A 2008 blaze that destroyed a newly built Pronghorn home is now the subject of a $1.5 million lawsuit alleging a former Bend contractor caused the fire.

State Farm Mutual Insurance Co. has filed a complaint in Deschutes County Circuit Court saying the fire happened two days after Dean Stout & Sons Construction stained wood flooring inside the house.

The suit says Stout failed to “properly dispose of, store and/or handle staining materials, including Superdeck stain and materials used to apply the same, including rags, rollers and the like.”

State Farm paid $1.54 million to the homeowner after the fire and is now suing Stout for reimbursement.

State Farm’s lawyer, J. Jason Marquoit, said he was told by the company not to comment on pending litigation.

Attempts to reach Stout at his home and cell phone numbers were not successful. His contractor’s license has been suspended for failing to pay a subcontractor, and in February the Oregon Construction Contractor’s Board refused to reissue his license.

Budget cuts jeopardize programs for children

The Bulletin

The Bulletin

REDMOND — Cars dating back to a 1916 Ford Model T lined the streets around Redmond’s Centennial Park on Monday, as the city celebrated its 100th birthday.

The centennial events have included a Fourth of July parade, a festival and several concerts in the park. The roughly one-acre park, which features a cafe, a fountain and an area for concerts, officially opened Friday.

The car show, with about 50 automobiles, had at least one car from each decade that Redmond has existed. The newest car was a 2008 Chry sler Sebring convertible, but some of the older cars stole the show. Their chrome fenders and grilles reflected the sun and some of the hundreds of people admiring them. People wandered past the rows of cars and into the new park.

Nine-year-old Nate Kidwell, of Redmond, was visiting the car show with his family when he came to a stop in front of a tan 1940 Ford Deluxe. A photo album in front of the car documented the five-year restoration process by owner Jerry Trapp. The car had been a rusted trap sitting on the roadside in Petoskey, Mich., when Trapp bought it in 1999.

But Monday, the car looked entirely restored as Nate stared at the curved lines and gleaming paint job.

“It started out not looking real nice,” Nate said. “Now, boom.”

Trapp, 72, of Prineville, bought the car during a family trip to the Midwest. He’d grown up in California and, as a teenager, drove a series of Ford Deluxes — fast.

Trapp doesn’t drive that way anymore, though.

State budget cuts are forcing the Deschutes County Commission on Children and Families to limit funding to some programs in Central Oregon, and to reallocate money to continue funding others that are deemed crucial to the community. The cuts have caused the CCF to use unallocated federal and state funds, called “flex funds,” to make up for the shortage of funding this year.

“It’s not an ideal use of flex funds,” said Hillary Saraceno, director of CCF in Deschutes County. “But there’s a need for these critical services.”

The commission, which provides funding for a variety of children and family-related nonprofits in Central Oregon, received a $78,624 budget cut from the statewide 9 percent reduction in funding for state agencies. Though only 32 percent of the commission’s budget is state-funded, with the rest of its money coming from federal agencies and grants, the cuts are significant, as much of community program funding comes from the reduced funds.

The commission was notified of the amount of the budget reduction two weeks ago, and decided June 25 to allocate flex funds to some programs, while limiting funding to others. The flex funds are reserves, which the CCF would normally use to fund new initiatives and programs, though the commission decided that the funds would be better used toward existing programs.

Twelve programs that receive funding from the CCF will continue to receive money through the CCF’s flex funds to offset the budget cuts, including MountainStar Relief Nursery and Cascades Youth and Family Center.

Holiday fires damage 2 houses in Bend There were two fires at Bend homes on the Fourth of July, according to news releases from the Bend Fire Department. Both fires are still under investigation.

Around 1:50 p.m., the department responded to a fire in the 21000 block of Eastmont Drive.

When firefighters arrived, the fire was on the deck and was spreading to brush near the house. Firefighters stopped the fire before it spread to the home, the news release said.

The fire caused about $15,000 worth of damage, the news release said.

Around 3:20 p.m., another fire broke out. The second fire, in the 1600 block of Northeast Carson Way, was also on a back deck. When firefighters reached the fire, flames were touching the home, according to a news release.

Neighbors had spotted the flames and, from behind a

fence, used a garden hose to spray water on the fire, the news release said.

According to the news release, the neighbors slowed the fire’s progress and were not in danger.

Damage from the fire was estimated at $3,000.

Fireworks spark small fires in Bend The Bend Fire Department put out four small fires Monday, and three of them were likely caused by fireworks, according to Battalion Chief Bob Madden.

The first fire, on vacant land near Pilot Butte Cemetery, was reported at 10:35 a.m., Madden said. That spread to a few hundred square feet before firefighters extinguished it. There were reports of fireworks in the area shortly before the fire, according to Madden.

A young child playing with a lighter set off the second fire, which was reported just before 3 p.m. That fire reached about

100 square feet near China Hat Road. The first engine to respond put the fire out, according to Madden.

That child has been referred to a juvenile fire center intervention program, Madden said.

Soon after 4 p.m., a small fire on the Bear Creek Elementary School playground was reported. The fire damaged a large tire on the playground, but was put out by the first engine on the scene, according to Madden.

Firefighters found remnants of a firecracker at the site.

Another fire broke out behind Costco, this one at 7:42 p.m. It was contained to some bundled cardboard boxes and quickly extinguished, Madden said. The department believes this fire also was started by fireworks.

Madden said all four fires could have been worse and pointed to the high temperatures expected in the region later in the week. “We’re going to be in high fire danger very quickly,� Madden said.

Cannon blast seriously injures Washingtonian The Associated Press VANCOUVER, Wash. — The explosion of a homemade cannon sent a Carson, Wash., man to the hospital with serious injuries Sunday.

The Columbian reports that 42-year-old Raymond Lueders was flown to Portland’s Legacy Emanuel Medical Center around 1:30 p.m. Sunday after the explosion. He was listed in serious condition Monday.

Skamania County Undersheriff Dave Cox said it would be a few days before Lueders could be interviewed about the explosion. Cox said one question would be whether the cannon was fired to celebrate the Fourth of July.

O North Umpqua River project 1 dead, 1 seriously injured in crash after police chase creating jobs, fish habitat The Associated Press

By Anne Creighton The News-Review

DRY CREEK — The bottom of Soda Springs Dam looks more like a rock quarry than a riverbed right now.

“It’s hard to imagine that in just 18 months, fish will be swimming upstream of the dam for the first time in 50 years,” said Monte Garrett, the program manager for the Soda Springs fish passage project.

The project on the North Umpqua River is a result of a 2001 agreement signed by PacifiCorp and seven state and federal agencies for relicensing of the North Umpqua Hydroelectric Project by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission. Work began at the site June 29.

More than 100 employees from the companies Sims Electric, Umpqua Sand and Gravel, Knife River Materials and Weekly Brothers Construction are being contracted for the project, Garrett said.

“It’s creating jobs,” he said.

“That’s a good thing. It’s what we need.”

Area closed Because of construction, Forest Service officials have closed access to the Soda Springs Reservoir from the dam to one-half mile upstream. A line of buoy markers in the reservoir indicates the closure on the water to prevent boaters from coming into the construction zone, Garrett said. Nearby Forest Services roads and the North Umpqua Trail are closed as well.

Construction workers will use rock hammers and drills to remove extra rock from the site,

“This will certainly bring more fish to the habitat above the dam and utilize the area for spawning.”

— Frank Moore, area resident and avid fisherman

trout are voracious predators, and they prey on young salmon, Garrett said.

“We’re going to do what we can to control the brown trout population and provide for both species,” he said. “Hopefully there will be enough production of salmon that the trout won’t make an impact.”

Counting the fish and beginning next week, there will be some blasting, Garrett said.

“It’s going to be fairly minor, really subdued,” he said of the detonation.

Prior to construction, workers drained the water from the base of the dam to create a dry area in which to work. Rich Grost, principal aquatic scientist at PacifiCorp, salvaged the remaining fish that were stranded after the drainage and transported them downstream.

In addition to creating jobs, the estimated $60 million project, scheduled for completion in early 2012, will create nearly six miles of fish habitat above the dam. Chinook, steelhead, coho and pacific lamprey are species that will benefit from the extra growing room.

Longtime Idleyld Park resident and avid fly fisherman Frank Moore said the project will be very beneficial to the area.

“This will certainly bring more fish to the habitat above the dam,” he said, “and utilize the area for spawning.”

Others that might benefit from the ladder are brown trout, whose home is currently upstream from the dam. These

The fish ladder will implement a “visual inspection program,” or a video monitor that will count every fish as it swims upstream, Grost said.

“That way we’ll have a record of numbers just like ODFW (Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife) does at the Winchester Dam,” he said, comparing it to the fish ladder located just north of Roseburg. “This one will not be open to the public. There’s not enough room.”

In addition to the fish passage project, a tailrace barrier will be constructed at the Slide Creek powerhouse, upstream of Soda Springs, in 2011. This project will be similar to the one completed below the Soda Springs powerhouse in 2007 and will protect upstream migrating fish from effects related to outflows from the powerhouse.

“The fish might think that this turbulent water created by the powerhouse is another route,” Grost said. “This fence directs them upstream so they don’t get confused.”

Other ongoing work along the North Umpqua includes improvements to the intake at Toketee Dam as well as numerous habitat enhancement projects for fish and wildlife.

Congolese refugee in Springfield strives to help orphans of war

By Greg Bolt The (Eugene) Register-Guard

EUGENE — The soldiers came in the middle of the night, pounding on the door with the butts of their rifles until Richard Kitumba and his brother were too frightened to stay hidden inside.

What followed was a night of terror as the renegade Congolese soldiers looted the house and forced the children to haul large, heavy bundles of their family’s possessions to a military truck many blocks away.

It was dark, and the night was alive with the sound of machine guns and rifles as soldiers stripped an entire neighborhood, killing anyone who resisted or tried to lock them out.

Kitumba and his family actually were lucky; they survived the night and what is sometimes called the Second Congo War, a conflict so violent that the death toll of 5.4 million is second only to World War II. That was a much different time and a far different life for Kitumba, now a University of Oregon student and resident of Springfield.

But even with his life in what is now the Democratic Republic of the Congo in the past, Kitumba can’t forget. And what fills his thoughts the most are the orphans; more than 4 million children in the Congo were orphaned by the war, many after witnessing unspeakable violence.

“Some of these kids have seen their parents shot, or worse,” Kitumba, 35, says in solid but accented English.

His desire to help those children led Kitumba to found City of Refuge International, a Springfield-based relief organization that finds foster families for orphaned Congolese children and helps provide them with food, clothing, education and medical care.

With help from Pastor David Lanning and the congregation at Springfield Faith Center, City of Refuge has placed 93 children with carefully screened foster families.

It also has a micro-loan program that allows families to buy a goat that provides milk, with the animal’s first offspring going back to the organization to be made available to another family.

Small steps City of Refuge is small by relief organization standards. It raised just short of $100,000 in 2008 (the most recent year for which tax records are available), much of it from local donors and fundraisers.

It has another major fundraiser coming up on July 10 at the church.

Kitumba says that by doing whatever he can for the orphans of the DRC, he hopes to simply draw some attention to the larger issues facing that country.

Even after a war that saw millions killed, the Congo is well under the radar of average Americans, and Kitumba hopes that by focusing on the nation’s plight, more people will be willing to help.

“In my heart I want people to know about the Congo,” he said.

“The reason we want people to know about this is we want to help as many people as we can.”

Kitumba escaped the country thanks to his education. He earned a teaching degree and was teaching English when he began working for some American missionaries, which led to a visit to the United States.

When violence escalated in the Congo, he was granted asylum and citizenship in Canada.

A man of deep faith, he had taken up missionary work himself while still in Africa.

He continued to speak at churches in America, which eventually connected him with Lanning and Springfield Faith Center.

Lanning is now chairman of City of Refuge International and Kitumba is its president. Other church members also serve on the board.

Kitumba says City of Refuge International tries to spread its work as far as it can by buying everything it needs in the Congo.

That way, money donated to the group not only helps the orphans but also the local farmers and merchants.

“If you help one child, you really help dozens of families,” he said.

Changing lives The organization is based in the city of Kamina, where it was able to purchase a three-acre site. It has built an 8-foot-high security wall around the property and hopes to build a kind of community center where children will get schooling, medical care and other services.

Kitumba hopes to return to Kamina in August, and if things work out, make trips back every two years. He’s now a family man himself.

After moving to Springfield he met and married his wife, Erin, a graduate student in family therapy who had previously done relief work in Africa and Asia. They have a 5-month-old son, Kaizen.

If anything, that’s made him more determined to help the children of the Congo.

“I’m very, very excited, because lives have changed and we have put smiles on the faces of these children,” he said. “And we couldn’t have done it without the generosity of the people of Springfield and Eugene.”

Where Buyers And Sellers Meet 1000’s Of Ads Every Day

PORTLAND — The driver of a suspected stolen car died and a passenger suffered life-threatening injuries after a police chase ended in a fiery crash, the Columbia County Sheriff’s Office said Monday.

The wreck happened Sunday night after a deputy spotted a car that fit the description of a stolen vehicle that had eluded Scappoose police Saturday, the Sheriff’s Office said.

The deputy tried to pull over the 1989 Nissan 240SX, but the

vehicle took off and a 15-minute, 18-mile chase began.

The chase reached speeds of up to 80 mph. During the pursuit, the driver was seen throwing debris out of the driver’s side window — including an anti-theft device, large fencing staples, a gasoline can and a pair of pants — to create obstacles for the pursuing deputy, authorities said.

A Vernonia police officer ahead of the chase set up a spike strip to stop the fleeing car. Police say the driver tried to

avoid the spikes but lost control of the vehicle. The vehicle left the roadway, crashed and burst into flames.

A deputy and police officer pulled the passenger from the car, but they could not get to the driver. The crash happened on Scappoose-Vernonia Road, about three miles east of the Nehalem River Highway.

The identities of the driver and passenger were not immediately released.

State police are investigating the crash.

O B Girl, 2, hospitalized after attack by dog PORTLAND — Washington County authorities are investigating a dog attack that put a 2-year-old girl in a Portland hospital.

Sheriff’s officials say the adult Labrador retriever bit the girl on the head, neck and face at an Independence Day gathering Sunday just outside Portland. She is expected to survive.

Witnesses told deputies the dog lifted the girl by the head.

As the dog’s owner ran to help, the dog released its bite, dropping the girl to the ground.

Officials say the girl had deep lacerations to her face, head, neck and ears, and that the top of one ear was severed.

She was taken to Emanuel Hospital.

According to officials, the dog’s owner, John Kelly of Beaverton, said the dog bit another child the previous week.

The dog was taken to an animal shelter.

St. Helens police look into suspicious fires PORTLAND — Authorities in St. Helens are investigating a string of fires believed to be arson.

Chief Steve Salle says at least eight blazes were set Monday morning.

Police also are looking at vandalism that occurred in the same area and time frame, between 3 a.m. and 8:30 a.m. in a one-mile radius near U.S. 30.

The fires involved cars, a motorcycle, a boat and a Church of Christ. Police say vandals also broke into two businesses and tried to break down a door with lawn furniture.

Salle says police believe the crimes are related.

The spree mostly caused minor damage, except at the church, which Salle says was severely damaged.

Arson damages Ashland stadium ASHLAND — Investigators have described a fire that destroyed bleachers at the Ashland High School football stadium as arson.

Fire crews on Wednesday found 7-foot flames shooting from the north end of the bleachers.

Ashland Fire Marshal Margueritte Hickman says police are asking the public to help identify a suspect.

The school district plans to have 24-hour security guards on campus during the week.

Hickman says a sprinkler system likely saved the structure from destruction.

The fire reached part of the locker rooms underneath the stadium but didn’t affect an area containing football memorabilia.

Senate president calls special session unlikely SALEM — The Oregon Senate president says Gov. Ted Kulongoski would likely veto lawmakers’ attempts to tap reserves during a proposed special session of the Legislature.

State Senate president Peter Courtney says he doesn’t expect Congress to pass measures that would send federal money for education and Medicaid, meaning Oregon must deal with a gaping budget deficit on its own.

In June, Kulongoski made a 9 percent across-the-board cut

to state agencies’ budgets. Corrections, education and human services took the biggest hits.

Courtney says a special session to spread the cuts more evenly probably won’t happen, but House Speaker Dave Hunt says he believes a special session is “likely.”

Courtney says the state has between $76 million and $208 million in reserves.

Fire at senior center displaces 80 residents PORTLAND — Tualatin Valley fire authorities say a blaze at an assisted care facility in unincorporated Washington County forced the evacuation of more than 80 senior citizens and damaged the building.

Firefighters from Tualatin Valley Fire and Rescue crews responded to a blaze around 10 p.m. Sunday after a worker at Park Place Assisted Living Community called 911 to report the facility’s roof was on fire.

When firefighters arrived, most of the 80 elderly residents, many in wheelchairs or in need of special medical equipment, had already been properly evacuated.

Ambulances and buses were called in to transport many of the residents to temporary shelter.

No serious injuries were reported. Two people were transported to hospitals for evaluation.

Investigators have not determined the cause of the fire, which started in the center’s attic.

Reset Cabinet’s generous target

L

et’s assume that the 2011 Legislature tries to implement some of the measures recommended last month by Gov. Kulongoski’s Reset Cabinet. And, really, what other op-

tion exists? The Reset Cabinet’s final report describes businessas-usual increases in state labor costs as “unaffordable and unsustainable.” Meanwhile, the Legislature, which recently boosted corporate and personal income taxes, can’t easily turn around and squeeze Oregonians harder.

So, assuming lawmakers find the courage to enter the arena with public employee unions, expect to hear a lot about the following number: 6.5 percent. If the state somehow managed to limit increases in public employees’ total compensation — pay plus benefits — to 6.5 percent over the next two years, the report argues, the general fund could save $400 million.

To many Oregonians, the prospect of a 6.5 percent increase in total compensation over two years would be good news. But it’s cause for alarm when, as the report points out, the total compensation for a typical state employee is projected to increase 15 percent between July 2011 and July 2013. Prepare, then, to hear — at great volume — how unfair a 6.5 percent target would be.

But is it?

Consider what the number represents. Six and a half percent is the growth rate “that is likely to be experienced in the statewide labor market” over the next couple of years. And the statewide labor market, according to the Governor’s Office, includes the following: private sector employees, county and city employees in Oregon, and state employees in Oregon, California, Nevada, Washington and Idaho.

In other words, the growth rate of public employees would be moder-

ated by “benchmarking” it to a labor market that includes a whole bunch of public employees. Factoring in private sector employees does pull down the growth rate. But in the end, even the Reset Cabinet, which has recommended some fairly tough medicine, hasn’t suggested that lawmakers link growth in public sector compensation directly to growth in private sector compensation — though that would probably make better sense.

Remarkably generous though it is, the Reset Cabinet’s growth target will still sting. Even with a “strict salary freeze” — no step increases or general salary hikes — total compensation for the typical state employee will rise 7.5 percent between 2011 and 2013, owing to the staggering cost of public sector health and retirement plans.

Thus, the only way to limit growth to 6.5 percent — not to mention offer salary hikes — is to cut benefits, which the Reset Cabinet proposes to do by increasing employee contributions to retirement and health plans.

Such a shift will be painful, and lawmakers and taxpayers should recognize that. But they must see that the pain isn’t the product of a vindictive assault upon public employees. Rather, it is the consequence of bad leadership by legislators and other public officials who, egged on by public employee unions, created an unsustainable benefit structure.

Portland guards academics

I

t’s a wondrous thing to watch when self-interest and public policy collide, as they have in the case of the Portland school district and its superintendent’s recommendation to drop physical education from all but the high school curriculum. A slick campaign, complete with public opinion poll and advertising, aims to reverse that decision, according to The Oregonian newspaper.

That the campaign is sponsored, in part, by the likes of the Portland Trail Blazers and Nike should come as no surprise. Each has a real stake in keeping kids interested in sports, and what better way to begin nurturing that interest than on the floor of the school gym? In fairness, others with less direct financial stake in the decision, including the Oregon Medical Association, have joined the effort to keep Portland PE alive.

And they’re right. Physical activity is good for kids, and in today’s digital era, getting enough activity can be difficult. Even with formal PE classes, Oregon’s elementary school kids get, on average, far less than the weekly 150

minutes recommended by the American Heart Association. On average, The Oregonian estimates, Oregon’s elementary schoolers get only 72 minutes per week of PE. Yet Portland schools must cut $19 million from their budget in the coming year, and that money must be found somewhere. Superintendent Carole Smith proposes laying off 66 elementary and middle school teachers, a move that would save the district $6 million. She would be failing in her commitment to the district’s academic mission if she suggested eliminating just about anything but PE teachers.

Sadly, Portland’s predicament is not an isolated one. Virtually every school district in this state will have to make difficult choices in the months ahead as both lawmakers and local communities come to grips with the state’s budget problems. Each time, someone will be hurt. In the end, however, we suspect most school districts will opt for a variation of what the Portland school board is being asked to do, and protect classroom instruction over valuable but not vital programs like PE.

In My View Badly served by Cascades East Transit

By Marie Annette Bulletin guest columnist

C

ascades East Transit presents itself as a provider of curb-tocurb service to different regions in Central Oregon, claiming to get people where they need to go. Really?

We’ve come a long way since the Soroptimists ran the senior bus in Prineville, shuttling folks around town to their doctors’ appointments and grocery shopping, and to Redmond once a month to take advantage of bargains and stock up on staples and other necessities.

Since that time, the senior bus was taken over by Crook County Dial-aRide and then became part of Cascades East Transit. Unfortunately, what started out as a much-needed shuttle service that catered to the needs of seniors has turned into a bureaucratic conglomerate that now seems to throw them under the bus.

To get a sense of the typical CET experience en route to Bend, imagine the ringing and annoying tones of cell phones going off every three minutes right behind you, obscene images on cell phones being passed around right in front of you and within the visual field of others, loud conversations and vulgar language that can be heard throughout the bus, and various unpleasant odors that compete with your ability to hold your breath.

Add to that getting kicked in the head (as I was) by a “special needs”

passenger who also spits and yells and screams along the way, with the bus driver sometimes pulling over so that restraints can be readjusted and other passengers may use the bodily fluids cleanup kit.

This year alone I made five trips to Bend using CET, and three of those trips were botched. On one trip, my previously confirmed ride never showed up, and I was forced to obtain my own transportation to the previously confirmed destination. On another trip, not only did my previously confirmed ride never come, but I was actually falsely accused of being a noshow myself — despite my offering three witnesses who could attest to the fact that I waited vigilantly for a ride that never came. I was forced to cancel my other plans and then had to wait for hours until a driver became available for the return to Prineville.

By the way, this happened on the same day that several of us seniors (including a veteran) were unexpectedly taken off one bus and forced to wait for another that was being dispatched.

Although medical appointments are considered the highest priority, this extra wait caused me to arrive late for mine.

Another time, after waiting over an hour for my previously scheduled and confirmed ride that also failed to come, CET admitted to yet another “snafu” and I was told to “take BAT (Bend Area Transit).” After much objection, it was

finally agreed that a cab would be provided, which I literally had to crawl into because there were no handrails to help me pull myself up.

Unfortunately, these trips are not isolated incidents. According to my taxi driver, “this happens all the time.”

It’s obvious that a pattern of incompetence has been established within the CET system. Sadly, it doesn’t do any good to write letters of complaint because they don’t get acknowledged.

There are no formal apologies and no offers of recompense such as complimentary passes or fare refunds, and no efforts are made to help abate all the distress, inconvenience, loss of time and the disruption of plans that could not be completed because of CET snafus. Shouldn’t an agency that collects fares in exchange for providing specific services be held accountable when it fails to provide those services?

It’s grueling enough to travel in conditions that force you to sacrifice peace and safety, and that severely restrict carry-on parcels to whatever fits at your seat, but telling physically impaired seniors to fend for themselves when 35 miles from home leaves little wonder why many folks have stopped traveling outside of town altogether.

Thanks to the “progress” made by CET, Prineville seniors have been driven back to the days prior to having that little senior bus.

To combat terrorism, it helps to acknowledge the obvious WASHINGTON — he Fort Hood shooter, the Christmas Day bomber, the Times Square attacker. On May 13, the following exchange occurred at a hearing of the House Judiciary Committee: Rep. Lamar Smith, R-Texas: Do you feel that these individuals might have been incited to take the actions that they did because of radical Islam?

Attorney General Eric Holder: There are a variety of reasons why I think people have taken these actions. ...

Smith: OK, but radical Islam could have been one of the reasons?

Holder: There are a variety of reasons why people — Smith: But was radical Islam one of them?

Holder: There are a variety of reasons why people do these things. Some of them are potentially religious-based.

Potentially, mind you. This went on until the questioner gave up in exasperation.

A similar question arose recently in U.S. District Court when Faisal Shahzad,

T

the Times Square attacker, pleaded guilty.

Explained Shahzad: “One has to understand where I’m coming from. ... I consider myself a mujahid, a Muslim soldier.”

Well, that is clarifying. As was the selfprinted business card of Maj. Nidal Malik Hasan, the Fort Hood shooter, identifying himself as SoA: Soldier of Allah.

Holder’s avoidance of the obvious continues the absurd and embarrassing refusal of the Obama administration to acknowledge who out there is trying to kill Americans and why. In fact, it has banned from its official vocabulary the terms jihadist, Islamist and Islamic terrorism.

Instead, President Obama’s National Security Strategy insists on calling the enemy — how else do you define those seeking your destruction? — “a loose network of violent extremists.” But this is utterly meaningless. This is not an angermanagement therapy group gone rogue.

These are people professing a powerful ideology rooted in a radical interpretation of Islam, in whose name they propagandize, proselytize, terrorize and kill.

CHARLES KR AUTHAMMER Why is this important? Because the first rule of war is to know your enemy. If you don’t, you wander into intellectual cul-desacs and ignore the real causes that might allow you to prevent recurrences.

The Pentagon report on the Fort Hood shooter runs 86 pages with not a single mention of Hasan’s Islamism. It contains such politically correct inanities as “religious fundamentalism alone is not a risk factor.”

Of course it is. Indeed, Islamist fundamentalism is not only a risk factor. It is the risk factor, the common denominator linking all the great terror attacks of this century — from 9/11 to Mumbai, from Fort Hood to Times Square, from London to Madrid to Bali. The attackers were of

various national origin, occupation, age, social class, native tongue and race. The one thing that united them was the jihadist vision in whose name they acted.

To deny this undeniable truth leads to further absurdities. Remember the wave of speculation about Hasan’s supposed secondary post-traumatic stress disorder — that he was so deeply affected by the heart-rending stories of his war-traumatized patients that he became radicalized? On the contrary. He was moved not by their suffering but by the suffering they (and the rest of the U.S. military) inflicted on Hasan’s fellow Muslims, in whose name he gunned down 12 American soldiers while shouting “Allahu Akbar” (“Allah is Great”).

With Shahzad, we find the equivalent ridiculous — and exculpating — speculation that perhaps he was driven over the edge by the foreclosure of his home.

Good grief. Of course his home went into foreclosure — so would yours if you voluntarily quit your job and stopped house payments to go to Pakistan for jihadist training. As The Washington Post’s

Charles Lane pointed out, foreclosure was a result of Shahzad’s radicalism, not the cause.

There’s a final reason why the administration’s cowardice about identifying those trying to kill us cannot be allowed to pass. It is demoralizing. It trivializes the war between jihadi barbarism and Western decency, and diminishes the memory of those (including thousands of brave Muslims — Iraqi, Pakistani, Afghan and Western) who have died fighting it.

Churchill famously mobilized the English language and sent it into battle. But his greatness lay not just in eloquence but in his appeal to the moral core of a decent people to rise against an ideology the nature of which Churchill never hesitated to define and describe — and to pronounce (“Nahhhhzzzzi”) in an accent dripping with loathing and contempt.

No one is asking Obama or Holder to match Churchill’s rhetoric — just Shahzad’s candor.

Sisters Continued from C1 Merrill, 73, has decided not to run so he could spend more time with friends and family.

“I’m satisfied that in my four years I was productive,” Merrill said. “Now I’ll go fishing and meet up with all my geezer friends.”

On the council for six years, Weed was the only councilor to vote against the gas tax because she wanted citizens, and not the council, to institute the measure. Voters eventually got that chance.

Weed, who is the executive director of Sisters Habitat for Humanity, said the local economy is the biggest issue facing the council in the coming years. Without detailing a plan, Weed said the city needs to balance bringing businesses to Sisters with maintaining its small-town character.

“It’s not just about recruiting business from the outside, it’s about maintaining the quality of life in Sisters,” Weed said of the council’s work.

Bogart, 43, was elected in 2008 on an economic development plank along with Kellstrom and Thompson. Along with those two, Bogart has backed several efforts, including the annexation of McKenzie Meadows, a 30-acre development near Sisters High School. Merrill also approved the move.

She graduated from Crook County High School in 1940.

On June 28, Jean Gerke 1941, she married Lynn Frasier Gerke.

Mrs. Gerke enjoyed traveling, taking pictures, reading, and collecting things.

She loved the color red and had a huge collection of red glass and over 100 red teddy bears.

She worked at the phone company in Prineville in the 1940s, and was a plane spotter during World War II. She was an instructional assistant at the Ochoco Elementary and Prineville middle schools in the 1980s.

She was a member of St Joseph's Catholic Church and was an active member of the Altar Society. She was in charge of many receptions and the annual ham dinner.

Her family was important to her and she was active in PTA and was a den leader for her son in cub scouts. She was her daughter's Blue Bird and Camp Fire leader.

She was a strong supporter of her husband's activities with the Prineville Elks and the March of Dimes. They celebrated 51 years of marriage, before he preceded her in death in September, 1992.

Mrs. Gerke is survived by her son, Robin and wife, Maralee Gerke of Madras, her daughter, Sheryl and husband, Rod Keizur of Hood River; four grandchildren, Randy Keizur and wife, Heather of Hillsboro, Spencer Gerke and family, Koko Sakakida and Parris Joyce of Portland, Jill (Keizur) and husband, Josiah Szeremi of Hood River, and Roger Gerke of Bishop, CA.

Ex-Red Wings, Blackhawks hockey player Bob Probert

By David N. Goodman The Associated Press

DETROIT — Retired hockey enforcer Bob Probert, as adept with his fists as with a stick in a 16-season career with the Detroit Red Wings and Chicago Blackhawks, died Monday after suffering chest pains while boating with his family. He was 45.

“Bob lost the fight of his life this afternoon,” said Probert’s father-in-law, Dan Parkinson, a police officer who performed CPR before Probert was rushed to Ontario’s Windsor Regional Medical Center.

Probert was on a boat in Lake St. Clair with his wife, children and in-laws when he “developed severe chest pains” Monday, family friend Rich Rogow told a Monday evening news conference at the medical center.

“This is a tragedy for the family,” Parkinson said. “We ask that you respect their privacy at this time.”

Probert, who struggled to overcome drinking problems during his time in the NHL, played for the Red Wings from 1985 to 1994 and for the Blackhawks from 1995 to 2002.

“Bob was a part of our very first NHL Draft class that also included Steve Yzerman, Joe Kocur, Petr Klima and Stu Grimson,” Red Wings owners Mike and Marian Ilitch said in a statement. “Bob was always there for his teammates and was one of the toughest men to ever play in the NHL. “He also was one of the kindest, most colorful, and beloved players Detroit has ever known.”

Blackhawks president John McDonough said the organzia-

Lawsuit Continued from C1 Stout told fire investigators he had removed all of the staining materials and taken them to the dump one day before the fire. A receipt from Knott Landfill found in his truck confirmed that he had emptied a large trailer there the day before the fire, according to an incident report written by Oregon State Police Detective Doug Larson.

Larson investigated the fire with an Oregon state deputy fire marshal and Redmond Fire and Rescue. The investigators were not able to determine what caused the fire.

“Fire suppression activities involving heavy construction equipment rendered the fire scene virtually useless for investigation,” Larson wrote.

Redmond firefighters responded to the residence, in the 23100 block of Angler Court, at about 5:30 a.m. On Nov. 23, 2008. When they arrived, “the fire was burning intensely in the entry and living room areas and the upper level had collapsed into the lower level,” Larson wrote.

The floors Stout stained were in living room and entry areas of the house and were made from “old weathered barn wood,” according to Larson’s report.

Larson interviewed two Pronghorn employees who were in the house — which was for sale and scheduled to be shown the weekend of the fire — a few days before it burned.

They both described the barn wood used to make the flooring as “like kindling.” The men also said the floors were half finished when they left the house and “the fumes from the staining work was strong but not overpowering,” Larson wrote.

The homeowner, John Shepley, lives in Illinois and did not return calls for comment.

But he praised Stout’s work when interviewed by Larson and said he hired Stout after firing the first contractor because of construction delays. He said Stout had been diligent about updating him on the home’s progress and related expenses.

Chicago Blackhawks’ Bob Probert (24) and Los Angeles Kings’ Ken Belanger (12) mix it up in the third period of an NHL hockey game on Oct. 30, 2001, in Chicago. Probert died Monday after collapsing with severe chest pains while enjoying an afternoon of boating with his family. He was 45. tion’s “thoughts and prayers are with the entire Probert family.”

“Bob will always be a member of the Blackhawks family and his memory will live on through our fans,” McDonough said in a statement.

The Windsor native had 384 points (163 goals, 221 assists) in 935 career regular-season games with Detroit and Chicago.

His 3,300 career penalty minutes rank sixth in NHL history.

“Bob was a guy that started

Shepley also told Larson that he was one of three investors building the home, which they had intended to sell.

“He said they have invested about $1,700,000 to $2,000,000 in the house and had just listed it for $1,990,000,” Larson wrote.

Three months after Larson’s initial investigation, he wrote a second report which said that, before the fire, Stout had a subcontractor install German light fixtures that should have had Underwriter Laboratories labels affixed to them.

The company certifies a wide range of products, insuring they conform with industry safety standards and provides labels to the manufacturers of those products.

The issue came to Larson’s attention when the manager of Pronghorn security called in February to report Stout had received an envelope at the resort after the fire that was filled with UL labels.

When questioned about the installed lighting, Stout said he had the fixtures put in despite the missing labels so the house would pass its final inspection.

He said he planned to remove the fixtures at a later date and apply the UL labels, Larson wrote. “The house burned before he had a chance to apply the labels.”

Larson contacted UL to check on this practice and was told “UL labels should never be provided to a contractor to apply to any product, listed by them or not,” according to his second report.

“This brings up the possibility that the light fixtures may have been responsible for the fire if they were in fact a counterfeit, an unlisted product or improperly installed,” Larson wrote.

He submitted his report to the Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office and was told the incident was not a criminal matter.

State Farm’s suit against Stout is scheduled for a pretrial conference in late August.

as a strictly tough guy but made himself a player,” former Toronto Maple Leafs enforcer Wendel Clark told Canadian Press. “Off the ice, everything was a whole different story. He was one of the good guys and he’d do anything for anybody.”

Probert was charged several times with driving under the influence while playing for Detroit. He also was caught trying to carry cocaine from Canada into the U.S. in 1989 and served

Clement Finch, ‘Mr. Iron,’ a pioneer in hematology

By Lawrence K. Altman New York Times News Service

Dr. Clement Finch, a pioneering hematologist whose research on iron helped improve nutrition and led to advances in diagnosing and treating anemia, died June 28 at his home in the La Jolla neighborhood of San Diego.

He was 94.

His death, less than a week before his 95th birthday, was confirmed by his wife, Genia.

Finch was the first chief of hematology at the University of Washington, Seattle, from 1949 to 1981, and he remained on the faculty there for more than 60 years. His research helped define iron metabolism — how the body acquires, uses, stores and loses iron, which is essential to the formation of the oxygen-carrying pigments: hemoglobin in the blood and myoglobin in the muscles.

“He was Mr. Iron,” said Dr. James Cook, an emeritus professor of medicine at the University of Kansas who worked with Finch for many years.

“He put his stamp on every aspect of iron metabolism.”

Finch’s interest in hematology began when he was a medical student at the University of Rochester in the late 1930s.

At the time, doctors could detect iron-deficiency anemia, but they knew little about how often it occurred or the principles of iron metabolism.

Finch used radioisotopes to measure the body’s pro-

duction of red cells and their life span. Findings from these and other experiments provided insight into how iron is incorporated in hemoglobin and helped doctors detect different types of anemia more accurately.

Other studies conducted by Finch described how the body tried to maintain adequate stores of iron despite losses through menstruation and significant bleeding.

Finch also played a crucial role in showing that hemochromatosis, a genetic disease that causes the body to absorb too much iron from food, could be treated through periodic bleeding. The excess iron can damage the heart, liver and pancreas.

In his research, Finch often drew his own blood and occasionally even stuck needles into his breastbone, or sternum, to obtain samples of the marrow, the hollowed area in bone that produces blood cells. “We’d do things on ourselves before we would want to do it on a patient,” he said in an interview more than 20 years ago.

Finch’s studies formed a basis for what became standard tests for anemia and led to a classification system that emphasized the importance of abnormalities in iron metabolism.

Families Continued from C1 However, 11 programs will not receive any additional funding for the upcoming year, including the High Desert’s ESD Family Access Network and the Deschutes County Juvenile Community Justice’s Girl’s Circle.

“We simply won’t be having as many Girl’s Circles,” said Ken Hales, director of the Juvenile Community Justice Department. The popular Girl’s Circle program, which provides events for girls to discuss empowerment and gender-related issues, was set to expand to five additional locations this year.

However, due to the budget cuts, that will not be possible. According to Hales, the future of state funding to many programs looks dim.

“With regard to additional funding for preventative programs, we expect it to get worse, not better,” said Hales, citing the state fiscal shortfall. “People will be happy if we don’t lose more money in the next biennium.”

According to Saraceno, a comprehensive scoring system was used to determine which programs would continue to receive funding. The criteria of the scoring system judged each program on its performance, results and whether there were duplicate programs being funded that provide the same services to the community.

“Over time, the application of these flex funds may be questioned,” said Saraceno of the commission’s decision to offset the budget cuts with the CCF’s flex funds. “But we wanted to err on the side of caution and keep funding these critical programs.”

The commission is composed of 17 citizens who plan and coordinate services for children and families, and an advisory board of nine professionals from local community service agencies.

Though the additional funds from the reallocated money will help keep many of the programs afloat, the future for continual funding from the CCF to many of the programs is looking uncertain.

“I want to remain hopeful,” said Saraceno, citing the ailing economy and looming budget cuts. “But it’s anybody’s guess.”

Cars

Phil Hale, of Crescent, polishes his 1965 Ford Fairlane 500 Sports Coupe during a car show Monday at Centennial Park in Redmond.

Hale’s wife dubbed the car the “Little Red Money Pit” because he has spent about $30,000 on it. The show was part of Redmond’s Centennial Celebration, culminating today with a time capsule dedication.

Continued from C1 “I don’t drive this one fast because I know how much time it took to fix it,” he said.

Parked nearby was a 1941 Lincoln Continental convertible, painted a deep blue. Dee Anne Everson, 70, rode to the show in the car with her husband Del Everson from their Tumalo home. When she rides in the car, Everson said she feels “like a movie star.” The Eversons still drive the car to car shows, though many older cars are taken to shows on a trailer by their owners, Everson said.

The Eversons want to enjoy driving their car just as much as they want to show it off, she said.

“It’s what they call a driver,” Everson said. “It’s not perfect, but from 15 feet it looks perfect.”

The city’s celebration continues today. A time capsule will be dedicated at 4:30 p.m. in Centennial Park.

Mayor George Endicott, wearing an official Redmond centennial hat, walked through the park Monday.

“It’s been marvelous,” Endicott said of the centennial party.

kinds of riders presents itself at this weekend’s High Desert Omnium bike race in Bend. The annual two-day event gets under way Saturday morning with a lineup of criterium races at Summit High School, followed by an individual time tri-

al held Saturday afternoon on Skyliners Road. On Sunday, racing moves to Edison Sno-park, the staging area for a day of competition on the forest service roads surrounding Cultus Lake.

Fields for the High Desert Omnium consist largely of Oregon racers, including a number of those representing area teams.

In Central Oregon, one of the newer kids on the block is the BendBroadband/ WebCyclery.com team, a seven-man squad made up of elite-level masters riders who range in age from 35 to 50.

Bend Elks lose heartbreaker on road to Kelowna Bulletin staff report KELOWNA, British Columbia — The Bend Elks came out on the losing end of a wild finish.

Bend lost to the Kelowna Falcons 8-7 in West Coast League baseball action on Monday night in a game in which the lead changed hands four times in the final two innings.

With the game tied 3-3 through seven innings, Bend (16-6) took a 4-3 lead in the top of the eighth on an single by Andy Hunter that scored Bend High product Tommy Richards. But the Elks gave the lead away in the bottom half of the inning on a bases-loaded, bases-clearing double.

Trailing 6-4 in the top of the ninth, Bend rallied on a threerun home run by Donald Collins for a 7-6 lead. But Kelowna loaded the bases again in the bottom half of the ninth and won it on a two-run double by Paul Politi.

Bend had taken a 3-0 lead in the second inning before Kelowna answered with three runs in the fourth inning.

Collins led the Bend offense with three hits and four runs batted in. Richards went two for five with a double, and Kerry Jenkins doubled and singled for the Elks.

Ben Guidos started for the Elks and gave up three runs on seven hits in five innings in a no-decision. Nick Loredo relieved him, breezing through the sixth and seventh innings before laboring in the eighth and giving up the go-ahead runs. Adam Norton took the loss in the ninth for Bend.

WEST COAST LEAGUE BASEBALL

SPA, Belgium — A brief look at Monday’s second stage of the Tour de France: Stage: A 124.9-mile ride from Brussels to Spa that followed some parts of the Walloon Arrow and LiegeBastogne-Liege one-day classics.

Winner: Sylvain Chavanel of France. Chavanel earned a solo win on a day that featured several high-profile riders crashing in a slippery downhill. Riders involved in the wrecks included seventime Tour winner Lance Armstrong, defending champion Alberto Contador and the Schleck brothers. They all escaped serious injuries.

Yellow jersey: Chavanel, who now leads previous frontrunner Fabian Cancellara of Switzerland by 2 minutes and 57 seconds. Armstrong dropped to fifth, 3:19 back, and Contador is seventh.

Next stage: Tuesday’s third stage is a 132.36-mile ride from Wanze, Belgium, to Arenberg Porte du Hainaut in France. The stage features four cobblestone sections in the last 18.64 miles and more crashes are expected. In total, there will be 8.2 miles of cobblestones. Expect some of the main contenders to lose time.

Horner watch: Chris Horner, of Bend, was not among those who crashed in today’s stage and finished in 33rd place. Horner rides for team RadioShack.

Amare Stoudemire is headed to the New York Knicks, and both sides are hoping he’s not coming alone.

The Knicks said Monday they intend to sign Stoudemire to a contract later this week when the free agent moratorium period ends.

Stoudemire’s agent, Happy Walters, said the deal is for the maximum allowed, which would be nearly $100 million over five years.

Wearing a blue Knicks hat, Stoudemire said he looked forward to rebuilding a franchise and bringing the Knicks back to the top — maybe with a player such as LeBron James or Dwyane Wade with him.

It was a desperately needed score in free agency for the Knicks, who spent two seasons clearing enough cap space to afford two top players. They met with James, Wade and Chris Bosh last week and believe they could still land one of them.

If you go

By Howard Fendrich The Associated Press Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Dan Harrison rides his mare around his polo field Sunday morning. Harrison is organizing three tournaments this summer and is hoping the sport of polo will take root in Bend.

Laid-back polo in the country

WIMBLEDON, England — t was the middle Sunday at Wimbledon, the tournament’s traditional day off, and the best players in men’s tennis were scattered around the All England Club’s practice courts.

Rafael Nadal was there, going through a relatively light training session. To his right stood Roger Federer, hitting on the next court over. To Nadal’s left was Andy Roddick, also on an adjacent court. Andy Murray was out there, too, along with Novak Djokovic and Robin Soderling.

All were in close quarters that afternoon.

A week later, it’s clear that the gap between 2010 Wimbledon champion Nadal and the rest — including Federer — is quite pronounced.

“His backhand’s good. His serve’s good. His forehand’s good.

His movement is good. He does everything really, really well,” Murray said after being picked apart by Nadal in a straight-set semifinal.

And Murray went on to add this: “He’s one of the greatest players ever.”

A professional polo tournament series is being launched in Bend in an effort to attract all to the sport

By Katie Brauns The Bulletin

TUMALO — Dan Harrison and his 4-year-old thoroughbred mare, Cracker, are alone on Harrison’s expansive, homemade polo field. The rider whacks the hard, fist-size ball with his mallet, driving it clear across the flat, open field, and he and Cracker gallop swiftly to wind up for another hit.

The absence of other players is telling.

Despite Harrison’s efforts over the past four years, polo so far has not taken off in Central Oregon. But maybe this

COMMUNITY SPORTS summer …

Harrison is spearheading a tournament series in which professional polo players will demonstrate the spectator-friendly sport. The first of three “Chukkers for Charity” events will be held this Sunday at a new 15-acre polo field on Gosney Road in southeast Bend. Ensuing tournaments will be held in August and September. (Au-

gust dates are to be determined; the final event is set for Sept.

18-19.)

“Out West, we play polo because of the love of the game,” notes Harrison, 56, an equine veterinarian, as he leans back in a metal chair at the open doorway of his old Tumalo barn. “We’re not doing it for the money. It’s just a great sport. I want to appeal to everyone. …

I just want people to come out and have a great time, bring lawn chairs and a picnic and lay on that grass. I mean, that field goes on forever.”

S B Football • Ex-Raiders QB Russell arrested: Former Oakland Raiders quarterback JaMarcus Russell has been charged with possession of a controlled substance — codeine syrup — after being arrested at his home in Alabama on Monday, authorities said. The 24-year-old former LSU star and the No. 1 draft choice in 2007 was arrested as part of an undercover narcotics investigation, said Mobile County Sheriff’s spokeswoman Lori Myles. She would not say what led to his arrest. She said he did not have a prescription for the codeine. Russell, who graduated from high school in Mobile, was booked into the city jail and released soon afterward on $2,500 bond, online records show. The Raiders released Russell, considered one of the NFL’s biggest draft busts, in May after he won only seven of his 25 starts and was benched. He completed just 52.1 percent of his passes in his career with 18 touchdowns, 23 interceptions, 15 lost fumbles and a passer rating of 65.2.

Baseball • Red Sox All-Star RHP Buchholz going on the DL: All-Star pitcher Clay Buchholz of the banged-up Boston Red Sox is going on the 15-day disabled list because of a strained left hamstring. Buchholz, 10-4 with a 2.45 ERA in 15 starts this season, is expected to be at next week’s All-Star game, but will not participate. Buchholz was hurt while running the bases June 26 in San Francisco. Red Sox manager Terry Francona made the announcement before Monday night’s game at Tampa Bay. The righthander could return to the rotation right after the All-Star break. The Red Sox put catcher Jason Varitek and reliever Manny Delcarmen on the disabled list last Friday — at that point, 10 Red Sox players were on the DL, including Jacoby Ellsbury, Josh Beckett, Dustin Pedroia and Victor Martinez.

Golf • Tiger bogeys way to 7-over-par round in Ireland: Tiger Woods looked just as out of form in a celebrity pro-am as he did on the PGA Tour. The world’s No. 1 golfer arrived Monday in Ireland just hours after his 46th-place finish at the AT&T National in Pennsylvania and shot a 7-over 79 in the first round of the J.P. McManus Invitational ProAm. The unranked event in County Limerick featuring Hollywood celebrities and Irish billionaires was his first overseas event since revelations of his extramarital affairs surfaced last year. While more than 40,000 Irish golf fans offered him a friendly and forgiving welcome, Woods’ opening round at the 7,463-yard, par-72 Adare Manor Golf Resort was mostly dreadful. He bogeyed six holes, double-bogeyed the 5th, and managed a lone birdie on the 17th.

Soccer • Nigeria won’t suspend team: Nigerian president Goodluck Jonathan has dropped a threat to suspend the national soccer team from playing for two years because of its poor World Cup showing and corruption allegations. In a statement, Jonathan’s office said the decision came after a meeting Monday with the Nigeria Football Federation. The federation “assured the president of their commitment” to building a national soccer program “that will bring glory, rather than consistent embarrassment to Nigeria on the world stage,” the statement read. FIFA had set a Monday evening deadline for the Nigerian government to drop its suspension plans or face even harsher international sanctions than those Jonathan threatened to impose. In a statement, FIFA acknowledged that the government had backed off and “therefore, the Nigerian Football Federation remains vested with all its statutory rights.”

Olympics • Russia wasted millions on Vancouver Games: Russia’s flop at the Vancouver Winter Olympics followed widespread misspending by sports officials and a dysfunctional bureaucracy, government auditors said. The audit puts Russia’s total spending for the games, including preparations, at $186 million. It cited dozens of examples of money being wasted, saying the figure ran into millions of dollars. Russia, a traditional sports powerhouse, won only three gold and 15 total medals in Vancouver, putting the investment cost of each medal at $12.4 million. Russia spent five times less in Turin in 2006, when it won eight golds.

Hockey • Retired hockey enforcer Bob Probert, who played for the Detroit Red Wings and Chicago Blackhawks and struggled to overcome drinking problems, has died. He was 45. Probert was on a boat in Lake St. Clair with his wife, children and in-laws when he “developed severe chest pains” Monday, family friend Rich Rogow said.

Probert played for the Red Wings in 1985-1994 and for the Blackhawks in 1995-2002.

Uruguay and the Netherlands have met twice, each team with a victory. The Dutch won the only World Cup match, 2-0 in 1974, on their way to losing in the final in Germany. They also lost the 1978 final in Argentina, both times to the home team.

South Africa has strong Dutch ties, of course, and thousands of fans traveled from the low country to the tournament. Not nearly as many Uruguayans are here, and after the team beat Ghana — and in the way they beat Ghana — it’s unlikely too many Africans will be cheering for the Celeste.

CYCLING: TOUR DE FRANCE

Changes to the Chase the right thing for NASCAR

By Jenna Fryer The Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — ASCAR fans are reluctant to change, even when tweaks are made to grossly outdated policies and procedures. They like how things were done “in the old days” and are quick to criticize new ideas.

So there’s been a decent amount of consternation about the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship, the 10-race, title-deciding format adopted in 2004 and altered three years later.

Now NASCAR chairman Brian France is again considering a tweak or two, and it’s imperative that he keep in mind just how fans will react. After all, every move of late has been made with a focus on stopping the slide in both attendance and television ratings.

And while many recent changes have greatly improved the on-track product, NASCAR is not receiving an overwhelming return on its investment.

“There’s always a number of things that are working against you or for you at any one time,” France said last week at Daytona International Speedway, where he cited competition against the Winter Olympics, the World Cup and the economy for underwhelming attendance and ratings so far this season.

What France didn’t address is the faction of race fans who simply have lost interest in the sport. Although NASCAR has in past years received favorable feedback from its “fan council,” there remains a large group of one-time enthusiasts who just don’t like what’s become of the stock-car series.

Time and time again they rail against the Chase, which they blast as manufactured entertainment. After 29 years of crowning a champion based on a season-long accumulation of points, NASCAR devised a 10-driver, 10-race “playoff” that would create excitement when auto racing goes head-to-head with college football, the NFL and the World Series.

In 2007, France expanded the field to 12 drivers and tacked on a “seeding” system that ranked drivers based on 10-point bonuses they earned by winning “regular-season” races.

The results under both formats have been mixed: The inaugural year had five drivers in mathematical contention heading into the season finale, and Kurt Busch edged Jimmie Johnson by eight points. In the first year of the expanded field, Johnson and Hendrick Motorsports teammate Jeff Gordon waged an epic championship battle that resulted in Johnson beating his mentor by 77 points.

Those two years were the exception, not the rule, and Johnson’s reign of four con-

Armstrong joins spills in crash-filled second stage

By Jamey Keaten The Associated Press

SPA, Belgium — On a day of chaos and crashes, riders tumbled like dominoes in the rain and littered the road in a scene Lance Armstrong called “surreal.”

The seven-time champion did not escape the mayhem at the Tour de France on Monday. He was left searching for his bike, nursing scrapes and bruises to his hip and elbow and joking about the decision to come out of retirement.

He was in good company, joining dozens of riders who hit the asphalt on a slippery downhill run some likened to ice skating.

Sylvain Chavanel of France was among few to avoid trouble. He sped to victory after breaking away early in the 125-mile trip from Brussels to Spa and taking the yellow jersey from Switzerland’s Fabian Cancellara. With the pack banged-up, he finished nearly four minutes ahead.

With so many riders down in crashes, organizers said they briefly considered canceling the stage altogether. But under the race rules, the spills were too spread out to warrant a cancellation.

Armstrong returned to the RadioShack team bus with his team outfit torn and a bloody scrape on his thigh. His team said he also injured his elbow but otherwise was all right.

“You had people everywhere. It was surreal.

When I got back on my bike ... I saw crash, after crash, after crash,” Armstrong said, noting riders laid out on the ground. “It was like war.”

Chavanel began the stage in 87th place and knocked everyone on the leaderboard down a notch: Cancellara dropped to second, 2 minutes, 57 seconds behind. Germany’s Tony Martin is third, 3:07 back.

Armstrong sits fifth, 3:19 back, and defending champion Alberto Contador of Spain is seventh, 3:24 behind. The Spanish two-time Tour winner bruised his right hip, knee and elbow but was expected to start Tuesday.

Bas Czerwinski / The Associated Press

Tyler Farrar grimaces in pain after crashing during the second stage of the Tour de France on Monday.

On the descent from the midlevel Stockeu Pass, Armstrong, Contador and 2009 runnerup Andy Schleck all went down. Armstrong said he knew he was not badly hurt, but he did have other concerns.

“I knew I was fine,” he said. “My first thought was: ‘Where is my bike?’ I tried to find my bike. You know in the rain these guys are very good downhill. I’m not one of them. But even the good ones, with something like that: No chance. Absolutely no chance.”

Everybody finished, except French rider Mickael Delage, who slammed into a road bar-

rier early in the stage. The Omega PharmaLotto rider was taken to hospital with a concussion, a broken bone in his face and shoulder, knee and hand injuries.

Scrapes and bruises were reported by the dozens, and nearly every team was affected.

Some riders estimated at least half the 194-rider peloton had fallen. A post-stage medical report listed 23 as at least slightly injured during the day. On the Garmin-Transitions team alone, Americans Tyler Farrar and Christian Vande Velde and Julian Dean of New Zealand were taken to a hospital for evaluation. Vande Velde later announced he would retire from the race.

“Riding downhill was almost like ice skating,” said Johan Bruyneel, the RadioShack manager and Armstrong’s longtime mentor. Teammates Andreas Kloeden and Levi Leipheimer fell. “Almost half of the peloton crashed today,” Bruyneel said.

Cancellara, who as race leader can act as spokesman for the pack, asked Tour organizers not to award points for a final sprint out of respect for the fallen riders, course director Jean-Francois Pescheux said. Tour organizers called it a show of good sportsmanship.

That request, made with just 1.2 miles left, was honored by the race jury and, in effect, slowed the finish. The decision will have deprived some sprinters of points in the competition for the green jersey, which is awarded to the race’s best sprinter.

Armstrong was already lucky to have avoided six crashes in Sunday’s first stage. The mishaps have injected drama into the first week of racing even before its most dreaded test: today’s run on seven patches of cobblestones.

The third stage takes the pack over the bone- and bike-jarring cobbles during the 132mile ride from Wanze Arenberg to Porte du Hainaut.

Armstrong has predicted “carnage” on his Twitter account — and that was before the disorder of the last two days.

secutive championships hasn’t helped drum up excitement for the Chase.

So now NASCAR is taking another look at what could be done differently, and ideas being bandied about are a 15-driver field, elimination rounds, different Chase tracks and a system that could send a handful of drivers into the season finale for a winner-take-all situation.

“The big design is to have playoff-type moments that only can be, in any sport, created when there’s a lot on the line at any one moment, right? That’s what the essence of Game 7s, eliminations, and all that are,” France said. “What we’re talking about is enhancing it in a way that will bring out more of the winning moments, the big moments that happen in sports.

“And if there’s a way we can do that — and there are a couple of ways — we’re going to give that a lot of weight.”

It’s absolutely the right thing to do, even if the initial reaction to France’s remarks wasn’t overly positive.

Denny Hamlin immediately jumped on Twitter to blast any changes, while Johnson and Carl Edwards expressed fear of doing anything too drastic.

Current series points leader Kevin Harvick was more cryptic about his opposition toward change.

“I have thoughts on it, but I don’t know that I should express them,” he said. “We’ll see what they come up with, (France) knows my thoughts on it.”

But France needs to make decisions right now based on what’s best for the sport. That goes for the Chase, and a myriad of scheduling requests from track operators International Motorsports Corp. and Speedway Motorsports Inc. For too long things have stayed status quo because NASCAR falls back on the tired “that’s how we’ve always done it” excuse, even though the original reasoning for so many systems no longer applies. It’s often more about not wanting to upset the apple cart than it is about making thoughtful decisions that can better the sport.

The old way of crowning a champion based on a 36-race body of work was boring, and a driver wrapping up a championship with two or three races to go in a season isn’t very interesting. And it’s not coming back, ever.

The Chase is here to stay, and it’s a very good thing for the sport. However, France cannot continue to tweak the system every few years and expect fans to ever accept a system that changes every time NASCAR wants more interest.

He’s got to get it right this time around, once and for all.

Being a parent or a star: two fast-closing windows for Kerr

By Karen Crouse New York Times News Service

After a long day on the golf course, Cristie Kerr relaxed on a cushioned seat opposite her husband, Erik Stevens, and savored every moment of an orange sherbet sunset from the patio of the Mirabel clubhouse, a quick cart ride from their home in North Scottsdale, Ariz.

They gazed beyond the 18th green, where they were married in December 2006, into a future they figured would have arrived by now.

Every day, Stevens said, they talk about starting a family. At 45, he gets paternal pangs watching a television commercial with a father frolicking with his children, but is careful not to press Kerr about having a baby.

“There’s a little pressure on her,” he said. “The LPGA needs its stars right now.”

For Kerr, the impediment to motherhood is golf, and there is no automatic relief. A woman’s athletic prime and her peak childbearing years are like carbon copy pages in her reproductive calendar. A woman’s fertility peaks in her mid-20s and declines sharply after the age of 35, a real conundrum for golfers, whose games, like the courses they play, take

GOLF years to mature.

“I really feel like I can be No. 1 in the world,” Kerr, 32, said before this season. “I feel like I’m just coming into my golfing prime. I’m just starting to be in the best shape of my life.”

In June, Kerr ascended to No. 1.

She enters this week’s U.S. Open at Oakmont Country Club in Pittsburgh as the first American atop the world rankings since they were formally established in 2006.

With one lifelong goal achieved, will Kerr soon shift her focus?

Over the past two years, the LPGA Tour’s two biggest stars retired to devote their energies to family. The departures of Annika Sorenstam at 38 and Lorena Ochoa at 28 rocked a tour that was reeling from lost sponsors and tournaments.

In this age of million-dollar purses and million-mile travel, can the LPGA keep its superstars long enough to increase the tour’s following? The players’ fitness trailer is a reminder of the tour’s weakened state; its sides are adorned with larger-than-life images of Sorenstam and Ochoa.

Michael Whan, the LPGA commissioner, said women’s profes-

sional golf was “a tough, aggressive, highly paid career path, and people struggle with what kind of competitor they want to be and what kind of mom they want to be.”

He added, “We try to make it possible to be a mom and be competitive, but we can’t make it where nobody leaves because, quite frankly, that’s a personal choice.”

The tour offers free day care for domestic events, but players like Kerr see only the balls to be juggled and not the helping hands.

At a May tournament in Mobile, Ala., Kerr exchanged a hurried greeting with Karen Stupples, who was rushing to retrieve her 3-year-old son from the tour’s day care center 15 miles away.

Kerr glanced at her husband, and the thought that passed between them, Stevens said, was, “No way can we do that!”

Conversations on motherhood among golfers now often include surrogacy, adoption, freezing eggs, assisted reproduction techniques and the side effects of hormone injections.

When Nancy Lopez was dominating the tour in the early 1980s, such discussions began and ended with finding and affording child care.

Gene J. Puskar / The Associated Press

Cristie Kerr signs autographs following her practice round for the U.S. Women’s Open in Oakmont, Pa., Monday.

“It’s definitely different for women,” she said. “Guys, they have a wife who takes care of the children. They can focus totally on golf.”

Lopez’s plan was to retire in 1983 when she became pregnant with the first of her three daughters.

“But I really cared about helping carry the tour to wherever I was supposed to carry it,” she said. “It was my obligation, I felt, to keep playing.”

Lopez, now 53, won 21 of her 48 LPGA titles as a mother.

For Kerr, the toughest course to plot a strategy for is motherhood.

“Some people get pregnant right away,” she said. “For some, it takes years. How do you know what’s going to happen? What if I couldn’t have kids and I need a surrogate? What if you wait until your late 30s and you can’t conceive?

“Are you going to be the natural mother? Are you going to adopt

a baby? Are you going to have a surrogate?”

She and Stevens, a marketing consultant who is Kerr’s agent, routinely discuss those questions.

“Cristie earns $1 million a year on the golf course,” Stevens said.

“If she’s going to shut herself down for six months, what is that going to mean for the business? And the second part of it is, What’s going to happen after the pregnancy?

What’s it going to do to her career?

If Cristie wants to be involved in every aspect of parenthood, how will that absorb her time?”

Kerr was overweight as a teenager and shed 60 pounds from her 5-foot-3 1/2 frame in two years after turning pro in 1999. She has to be vigilant to maintain her size 2 figure, and worries that she will not be able to lose pregnancy weight, she said.

“I’ve definitely done the investigative work,” Kerr said. “It’s almost like getting a surrogate would be the logical option for us.

But I’m such a control freak, I don’t know if I could have a surrogate.”

She added, “I honestly thought I would have become a parent by now.”

Kerr took a sip of wine and put her glass down gently.

“Some things,” she said, “you can’t foresee.”

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Jason Bartlett’s sacrifice fly in the seventh inning snapped a tie and Tampa Bay rallied from a four-run deficit against Daisuke Matsuzaka to beat Boston.

John Jaso drove in two runs with a bases-loaded single that made it 5-5 and chased Matsuzaka in the sixth.

Bartlett’s sacrifice fly off Ramon Ramirez (0-2) drove in pinch-runner B.J. Upton after Matt Joyce and Sean Rodriguez singled to open the inning. Randy Choate (2-2) struck out the only batter he faced — bailing the Rays out of a bases-loaded jam in the top of the seventh — to get the win.

The right-hander outdueled Ben Sheets, Oakland’s $10 million man who has just one win over his last 11 outings.

The Yankees increased their lead in the AL East to two games over Tampa Bay, which beat Boston to drop the Red Sox to 2½ games back.

Indians 9, Rangers 3 ARLINGTON, Texas — Cleveland’s Matt LaPorta hit a two-run homer, then later took an accidental elbow to the head and left the game.

Jayson Nix homered twice and rookie Carlos Santana also connected to help the Indians win for the seventh time in nine games. Texas slugger Nelson Cruz had a three-run homer wiped out after umpires watched a replay and correctly overturned the call. The ALWest leading Rangers have lost five of seven. LaPorta homered in the top of the third, but the first baseman sustained a bruise on his head in the bottom half. LaPorta was down for several minutes. He remained in the game for the rest of the inning and was replaced by Andy Marte in the fourth.

NEW YORK — Joey Votto swatted a pair of home runs and Cincinnati took advantage of a rare overturned call by the umpires to earn a wild victory over New York. Drew Stubbs and Corky Miller each drove in a pair of runs during a strange six-run fifth inning, one that included everything from a run-scoring triple by rookie pitcher Travis Wood to Mets manager Jerry Manuel getting tossed for arguing with the umpires. Jordan Smith (2-1) pitched 2 1⁄3 innings of relief before turning it over to All-Star reliever Arthur Rhodes, and Francisco Cordero got some help from a couple nifty catches by his defense to survive the ninth and earn his 23rd save.

THE BULLETIN • Tuesday, July 6, 2010 D5

Wimbledon Continued from D1 For years, Federer was No. 1, Nadal was No. 2, and no one else was even close. They combined to win 17 of 18 Grand Slam titles in one stretch. But it appears to be a fading rivalry, because their last match against each other at a major tournament was 1½ years ago.

Indeed, right now, Nadal is alone at the top, much the way the woman who is No. 1 and won Wimbledon, Serena Williams, has distanced herself from the pack — in the rankings and on the court.

Williams won all 14 sets she played at the All England Club this year and set a tournament record with 89 aces. She’s won five of the last eight Grand Slam titles. The only other woman who’s even reached two major finals in that span is Dinara Safina. She lost both, then made a first-round exit at the French Open in May and withdrew from Wimbledon with a back injury.

Williams’ older sister Venus is now 30, hasn’t won a Grand Slam tournament in two years, hasn’t even made it past the quarterfinals at the last four majors and dropped to No. 4 in Monday’s rankings.

“It’s not just about how many Slams you win or how many tournaments you win — it’s just your game overall. And (Serena’s) definitely got all the goods,” 18-time major champion Martina Navratilova said. “It would have been fun to play her, but at the same time, I’m glad that I didn’t have to.”

Nadal, meanwhile, is 31-1 with five titles since mid-April.

Not only has he regained the top ranking, but as of Monday, Federer slipped to No. 3 for the first time since November 2003.

Plus, after reaching a record 23 consecutive Grand Slam semifinals, 16-time major champion Federer has lost in the quarterfinals at two majors in a row.

Nadal now stands halfway to Federer’s record total. By managing the tricky transition from clay to grass and following up

Anja Niedringhaus / The Associated Press

Rafael Nadal holds his trophy aloft after defeating Tomas Berdych of the Czech Republic in the men’s singles final at the All England Lawn Tennis Championships at Wimbledon on Sunday. his fifth championship at the French Open with his second at Wimbledon, Nadal is up to eight major trophies, including the 2009 Australian Open.

Bjorn Borg was the French Open and Wimbledon champion in 1978, 1979 and 1980, but nobody else won both in the same season for the next 27 years. Now it’s been done three times in a row: by Nadal in 2008, Federer in 2009, and Nadal again.

“If you want to play well, (you’re) going to find a way,” Nadal said. “So if you really want to play well in one surface, and you are a good player, I think in the end, (you’re) going to find a way.”

Simple as that, huh?

After easily beating Tomas Berdych 6-3, 7-5, 6-4 in Sunday’s Wimbledon final, Nadal was asked about chasing Federer’s Grand Slam record.

“Eight more? That’s too complicated ... too hard,” Nadal said.

“I never imagined I’d have eight Grand Slam titles today, at 24 years old.”

That’s right: Nadal is only 24, and he already owns the same number of major championships as Andre Agassi, Jimmy Connors and Ivan Lendl did when they retired — and one more than John McEnroe.

What must be daunting for Nadal’s contemporaries is that he keeps getting better and better.

His serve once was considered a liability. Not any more.

Against Berdych, Nadal saved all four break points he faced.

Against Soderling in the Roland Garros final a month ago, Nadal went eight for eight when he was a point from losing serve.

So what’s the secret? After all, Nadal’s average speed on first serves Sunday was 115 mph, 10 mph slower than Berdych.

“My percentage is high.

That’s important, especially on this kind of surface, on grass,” Nadal said Sunday night in an interview while being driven away from the All England Club. “And then, I think, my first shot after the serve is a good one, normally — that first forehand is a good one, and that’s a big advantage.”

Ah, yes, that forehand. Nadal whips it fiercely, lathering it with spin. That helped him accumulate a 14-4 edge in baseline winners Sunday.

It is hit, of course, with his left hand. Nadal, though, is naturally a righty, which is the hand he used to sign autographs for fans after the final. When he first began playing tennis, he would hit two-handed shots off both sides — forehands and backhands — but at about 9 or 10, he figured it was time to choose.

Seems like he picked well.

Now Nadal will take a couple of weeks off to rest, relax, get treatment for his right knee, and get ready for the next challenge: the U.S. Open, which begins Aug. 30. That’s the only major title missing from his resume.

Win that, and he’ll join Federer, Agassi and the four other men who own career Grand Slams.

Williams is one of nine women who’ve done that, and she’ll be favored to keep adding to her major total in New York. She already owns 13 Grand Slam trophies, six more than any other active woman.

“She’s just head and shoulders above everybody else,” Navratilova said, “and those are pretty broad shoulders.”

The same could be said about Nadal.

Omnium Continued from D1 The riders of BendBroadband/ WebCyclery.com have years upon years of high-level racing experience. Ironically, the impetus to create the new Bend-based elite masters team came from the guy whose race résumé is probably the shortest.

Nearly two decades ago, Brian Seguin, then a recent high school graduate, blazed onto the Southern California bike-racing scene and appeared to be heading for a successful cycling career. He quickly advanced from a Category 4 rider to a Category 1, and he was picked up by the Chevrolet/ L.A. Sheriffs bike team, which at the time was considered one of the top domestic cycling teams in the country. He rode on the squad for two years, and he even competed here in Central Oregon in the Cascade Cycling Classic — after which he remembers thinking, “Someday, I’m moving back here.”

But the lifestyle of a professional bike racer did not suit Seguin.

“There was a lot of times when it wasn’t fun … living out of a suitcase, out of hotels,” he recalls. “I did well regionally, but when I got to that pro level it was a whole different ball of wax. It was too much, too soon for me, and I didn’t handle it that well. I just thought it wasn’t for me.

Seguin sold his race bikes and did not ride seriously again for 15 years — until two years ago, when he moved to Bend.

“I had no thoughts of racing again,” says Seguin, now 41 years old, a father of two and a teacher at Bend’s Sky View Mid-

Polo Continued from D1 The new field — which was previously a hay field — was graded and planted four years ago by Kami and Brad Fraley on the couple’s 80-acre property on Gosney Road. This summer, the grass is finally mature enough to play on. The massive field is equivalent to the size of 12 football fields — three football fields long and four wide.

With a proper venue, Harrison and the Fraleys believe the popularity of polo will gain momentum in Central Oregon.

“We have such a huge horse community,” says Kami Fraley.

“I feel like there are a lot of polo players that exist around here … who played polo at another time in their lives. I think we have enough horse people here that we can get them interested.”

In 2006, Harrison and Bend resident Ruben Evans Jr., along with about five other polo players, started Cascade Polo Club with the idea of spreading the love of the sport to others. While the club has made some progress, says Harrison, much more is in store for Central Oregon.

“We hope to ignite a new fire into the polo club,” says Kami Fraley.

Chukkers for Charity is designed for several purposes: to display the game of polo played by professionals and to raise money for four local charities.

The beneficiaries are Healing Reins Therapeutic Riding Center,

dle School. “I bought a canoe, a bunch of fishing stuff, some skate skis — a bunch of outdoor stuff.”

Once here, however, the region’s roads lured Seguin back onto an old bike. But he was without basics like cycling shoes and riding shorts.

So into a local bike shop he went to buy a pair of shorts and a cycling jersey. The store clerk offered him a 30 percent discount on the shop kit if he would commit to participating in three local weeknight races.

Easy enough, Seguin thought.

The one-time pro didn’t have much trouble reconnecting with his former self, and he quickly established himself as one of the stronger riders in Central Oregon — all for a good deal on spandex.

“That was it and that got the ball rolling,” he says. “I got the bug again, and here I am.”

Seguin and his BendBroadband/WebCyclery. com teammates have experienced notable success since forming at the outset of the 2010 season. In May, Michael Larsen, a substitute teacher and a spin instructor, won the inaugural Bend Don’t Brake road race in the men’s pro/1/2 field. Seguin placed fifth overall among masters at the Elkhorn Classic Stage Race, held recently in Baker City.

And Eric Martin, known around here as an elite cross-country skier, last month took third in the masters criterium at the Mt. Hood Cycling Classic in Hood River.

Derek Stallings, an electrician; Doug Smith, a developer; Hans Bielat, a pilot; and Edward Micek, a bike shop manager, round out the team’s roster.

Equine Outreach, Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Oregon, and the Sisters Folk Festival. Professional players from La Grande, Seattle and Tacoma, Wash., will travel to Central Oregon to play in the charity tournament.

“We are really lucky to get this caliber of players here,” says Harrison. “Nobody has ever seen this before.”

A Rube Evans Memorial Trophy will be presented to the winner of the tournament. Evans was a Bend resident when he passed away last year. He was a professional polo player who won a U.S. Open Polo Championship and was “a polo icon in America,” Harrison says. “He was one of the great polo players of all time in America.”

Evans’ son, Ruben Evans Jr., has been working to build and maintain the polo field with the Fraleys.

Another aim of Chukkers for Charity is to teach novice players the game of polo. On Saturday and Sunday, Cascade Polo Club will host a polo training clinic sponsored by the Polo Training Foundation of the United States Polo Association. So far, nearly 30 entrants are registered for the clinic, which will be staged at the new polo field on Gosney Road.

“Horseback riding is not required to learn the game of polo,” Harrison explains, “because the strokes and the rules will all be demonstrated while running around barefoot on this beautiful grass.”

For Harrison and other polo

“We’re all dads,” notes Seguin.

“Family guys with kids.”

While they may be family guys, they’re also pretty darn fast guys. And they are expecting to light up this weekend’s High Desert Omnium, where they will be racing in an open elite division rather than a masters division.

“We’d love to win, obviously,” offers Seguin. “We’re there to be competitive, and let everyone know who we are.”

Omniums are different from stage races in that overall winners are decided on points that result from placings, rather than on accumulated time. This makes omniums an attractive format for sprinters who might win a criterium by a mere second but then may lose minutes in a mountainous road race.

The High Desert Omnium is hosted by the Bend Bella Cyclists, a women’s road- and mountain-biking club. Proceeds from the event benefit the club as well as other local women-centered charities.

As the final stop in the Oregon Cup series (a yearlong points series sanctioned through the Oregon Bicycle Racing Association), the High Desert Omnium annually attracts a deep field of elite women and men. Racing action for the most spectator friendly of the three events — the criteruim on Saturday — runs from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Summit High School. Six racing divisions are offered, including three for women.

For registration details and a complete race schedule, go to www.highdesertomnium.com.

enthusiasts the sport is THE GAME to play.

“It is the ultimate athletic pursuit because of the speed that you are moving: a 40-milean-hour gallop,” says Harrison.

“And then hitting a ball. And the chess game that goes along with that on the size of the field makes for huge spaces. … It becomes a game that is played constantly in the future. … You have to anticipate where the ball is actually going to be, because once it’s hit it goes a hundred miles an hour at a hundred yards at a clip.”

Polo enthusiasts in Central Oregon say they want to downplay the images of pomp and great wealth that are often associated with the sport of polo.

Like Harrison says, he simply loves polo and he likes to have another reason to ride his horses.

No white tablecloths will adorn the sitting area of the polo arena on the Fraley property over the weekend. Nor will fancy hats and dresses be worn, notes Brad Fraley.

“People should feel at ease,” he says, “and not feel intimidated to come out.”

SPOTLIGHT Quilts from Uganda at Sisters quilt show Products made by the Sisters of the Heart Quilters will be on display at the Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show on Saturday.

The group of women from Uganda was formed by Sisters resident Janet Storton, who taught the residents of Kapchorwa the art of quilting. Several quilts, as well as bags, table runners, pin cushions and other items will be on display and offered for sale during the show.

The group also received good news in December, when the U.S. Embassy awarded the group enough money to build a vocational school. The school will provide enough room for 15 to 20 students to learn to sew and about 15 to 20 students to learn catering skills in a kitchen. Storton says the building is slated to be completed in the next few months. She plans to return to Uganda at the end of August.

Lonestar the Llama gets close enough to kiss to his owner Teri Holm, 53, at Ponderosa Pines Llama Ranch in Bend on June 29. The 15-year-old llama was recently sheared and the fleece was donated to help with the Gulf of Mexico oil cleanup.

ibers from Lonestar the Llama are being used to help soak up the massive oil slick in the Gulf of Mexico.

Lonestar, 15, is one of five llamas that graze on

the Ponderosa Pines Llama Ranch surrounding Teri Holm’s Bend home. As the oldest, Lonestar has an impressive history of carrying packs of wine and cheese, pulling small carts for applauding children and kissing cheeks with a slurp of his thick tongue.

What goes around keeps coming around in recycling

Unlike his ‘Warehouse 13’ character, Rubinek has a life

By Luaine Lee

‘Warehouse 13’ Season 2 premiere

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Dear Abby: On May 13, “Diana in Lakewood, Calif.,” asked you how to reuse or donate little jewelry boxes. You offered some great tips, but you should have let folks know about two terrific resources for giving away or recycling odd things.

Freecycle.org is an online network where people can give away or find free stuff in their local neighborhood. It is a great way to recycle items — like the jewelry boxes — to a local thrift store, a crafter or a teacher.

Earth911.com is also an amazing directory of local reuse and recycling options. I work at a thrift store for home improvements. (Instead of donating clothing or furniture, some people give us lumber, kitchen cabinets, hardware, etc.) Most people don’t know that stores like ours exist. Reusing items from your neighbors wastes no energy and builds a sense of community.

Abby, thanks for touching on this important topic.

— Ruthie M. in Edmonston, Md. Dear Ruthie: Many readers wrote to remind me that one man’s trash is another man’s treasure, and we all must do whatever it takes to keep items out of landfills. Read on: Dear Abby: I am an activity director at a small long-term-care facility and would love to receive those jewelry boxes. People don’t realize how grateful we are to provide a home for their extra greeting cards, craft supplies, fabric scraps, wrapping paper, games, cards — the list goes on and on. Diana should consider contacting her local nursing home activity director and put those boxes to good use.

— The Activity Goddess, Buhl, Idaho Dear Abby: I have another suggestion for Diana in Lakewood.

Quit buying so much stuff!

Recycling is only a partial solution to a wasteful lifestyle. Millions of tons of plastic, no matter

DEAR ABBY how many times it is recycled, end up in our oceans, where Texas-sized flotillas of plastic goo will outlast us all. The key is to generate less in the first place.

When considering a purchase, consider all four “R’s”: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Repair. In this case, the option to “Reduce” should be observed by either buying less jewelry, or asking the vendors to quit over-packaging the stuff.

— Dr. James Hayes-Bohanan, Professor of Environmental Geography Dear Abby: Diana should donate the boxes to Goodwill, Salvation Army, Habitat for Humanity, preschools, Girl Scouts and Sunday schools — not the landfill!

— Elsie K., Oak Ridge, Tenn.

Dear Abby: Perfectly good items should never be tossed into a landfill. There is always someone who can use whatever it is as long as it’s in good condition (and sometimes even when it’s not). It should be the responsibility of the consumer to find that someone. While it may not be a legal responsibility, it is the right thing to do.

— Rosie W. in Denver Dear Abby: Most malls and department stores open gift-wrapping booths at holiday time. They are usually set up to raise funds for a specific charity. Diana can contact mall management and find out if it plans to have one and if so, what agency will be operating it. Then she can contact the agency and arrange to donate all of the boxes. Believe me, small boxes are always needed.

PASADENA, Calif. — Actor Saul Rubinek, who plays the obsessed techie on Syfy’s “Warehouse 13,” confesses he shares his character’s mania.

“He’s a man who’s been at the warehouse for 30 years and has no wife and no kids and has a love-hate relationship and is married and obsessed with this place. He left Juilliard as a concert pianist and became really good at cryptology and got recruited and never turned back, and maybe wishes he did,” Rubinek said.

“Where I relate is I’ve been married 20 years this coming September. I have a daughter in college. My son is just finishing his first year of high school. And I do have a life — thank God I have a life — but I might NOT have.

“In my 20s I was a monk.

I was obsessed with theater, not being famous, not with television. I was 20 years on the stage before I set foot in front of a camera. And so I had an obsession with acting and theater, and my life might have turned in a different direction. So I relate to the world that I didn’t travel.”

The road he did travel was more circuitous than most.

Born in a refugee camp in Germany (his parents were Holocaust survivors), Rubinek ended up in Montreal. “I spoke mostly Yiddish and French, street French. I didn’t speak much English. We moved to Ottawa by the time I was 6 years old. Because my father had been in Yiddish theater and struggling to make a living because he couldn’t do theater in the new country, and saw his son — his only child — was not able to converse in the language, he sent me to theater school at 6.”

Rubinek needed to learn English quickly. “When the teacher sneezed, I said, ‘God

When: 9 tonight Where: Syfy

Saul Rubinek plays tech whiz Artie, on the Syfy’s “Warehouse 13”; which begins new episodes on tonight on Syfy. bless you,’ in a Jewish accent.

The kids laughed at me, if they didn’t beat me up. So I had to learn fast just to survive. But I learned fast in theater more than anything else because there I found a family, siblings. And in the theater, as anyone knows who’s even done amateur theater all their lives, is you immediately find a family there because you’re under stress, you’re trying to create something, you’re putting on a show, you find brothers and sisters right away. I think many, many actors that I’ve met throughout my life are looking to recapitulate that family experience.”

Rubinek, 61, who’s familiar to audiences for his roles on “Frasier,” “True Romance” and “Unforgiven,” would have continued his mendicant ways except for a chance glimpse on a freezing day in Toronto.

“I was driving and looked at a bus stop and, in a big brown coat, I saw this redhead. I knew who she was because she worked in my agent’s office. As I was driving I was thinking, ‘I’m heading

in the same direction, I should probably give her a lift. We’ll get talking, we’ll get married, have kids — not yet.’ Just that fast, through my head. And I didn’t stop because it came to my head, ‘Not yet.’”

Once they were married he told her that story. “And she said, ‘I was cold at that bus stop.’

Something about that moment changed me.”

There were some tough times along the way. When he was 18, Rubinek lied to his parents telling them he was going to London to attend university. “I had some of my own money because I’d been doing radio from the time I was a young kid. And when I went to England on my own, I became a busker. I played guitar for money in Leicester Square. And the guys who are supposedly blind and crippled, who aren’t, got me

after I’d collected a lot of money, took my money and threatened to break my arm if I ever came back to their ‘kip,’ their turf.

“I immediately went to France.

I told them I was a Canadian student who wanted to make some money to go to Israel. And I sang a lot of Jewish folk songs in a Jewish area and made a lot of money and overcame my misery.

I was miserable and lonely, and I’ve never had a time quite as hard as that.”

Rubinek’s wife, Elinor, is a producer. When he finally allowed himself to approach the redhead in the brown coat, he says, “I knew (it was love) when I first met her. I’m a very lucky, lucky man because I married the love of my life and I have two wonderful children and I let that happen because the truth is I was already 39 when that happened and I wasn’t sure what was going to happen to my life. But I was scared.

“Because I’d had all my life in the theater or film and television, and when you have kids you’re no longer No. 1, at least if you’re an adult, sane human being you’re no longer No. 1. There are still people who are obsessivecompulsive maniacs, but she prevented me from being that.”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, July 6, 2010: This year, maintain focus on your long-term desires. Networking, friends and expanding your horizons will be necessary in order to achieve your goals. Your style of communication draws many, but sometimes you fret needlessly.

You worry about hurting others’ feelings. If you are single, proceed slowly, especially if you run into someone who is controlling. You have a choice, you know! You don’t have to date this person. If you are attached, your partner could become more difficult than in the past. Give him or her the space he or she might need. The only way to win a control game is not to play.

TAURUS serves as an anchor.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHH You might be aware of the need to revamp or restructure your finances. Matters involving your home or a domestic situation could become very costly if you’re not careful. You are seeing a red flag!

Revise your approach with a difficult boss. Tonight: A must appearance.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH How you visualize a change could be very different as it starts becoming a reality. You wonder why you are proceeding on a certain course and what your objective might be. Keep communication open. Tonight: Try not to rehash your day.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HH Know when to back down or say little. You could be concerned about a money matter, but observing would be the most powerful solution. You might be surprised by an unanticipated option that appears. Be willing to jump on it. Tonight: Do your thing.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH Zero in on what you want at a meeting, with friends or even at work. Being shy won’t help, though diplomacy could mean a lot and certainly will draw a more positive response.

Tonight: Where people are.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH Though you have a strong mental image of what might be workable professionally, others might have difficulty following your concepts. Accept your role as leader, and simply adjust and adapt to new ideas. Tonight: Could go till the wee hours.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Keep reaching out for new ideas and different concepts.

Though you might not always be comfortable with what comes up, your earthy, practical ways help you successfully incorporate new ideas. Tonight: Take in new vistas.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Sometimes it is hard to get past a situation or find a different way to the same end. Remember, it is OK to think differently, even if working toward the same goal. Sometimes letting go is the right and only way.

Tonight: Togetherness works.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Defer to others, especially

as suggestions made now will be better received if someone believes he or she is in control.

How you present your situation and ideas depends on who you are talking to. Learn the art of flexibility.

Tonight: Say “yes” to living.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Stay even and on top of your game. Emphasize daily life and staying mellow. Information comes forward that might surprise you, to say the least. Your efforts impress a close associate. Tonight: All work and no play isn’t good for anyone.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Put your best foot forward, knowing what you want and need. Not everyone sees eye to eye with you and your ideas. A brainstorming session among those associated with the same project could produce spectacular results.

Tonight: Let your hair down.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Information that comes forward could be startling and could force you to stop dead in your tracks.

You are quite capable of absorbing new ideas, and might need to do just that. Do yourself a favor — don’t get stuck in rigid thinking.

Tonight: Say “yes” to a family member’s or roommate’s request.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Keep talking, and let conversation flow. Make calls and don’t get stuck like many people around you, demanding their way and only their way. You laugh, and someone inevitably joins in. Tonight: Allow more friskiness to emerge. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

E6 Tuesday, July 6, 2010 • THE BULLETIN

Llama Continued from E1 When Holm recently learned of a request for donations of absorbent llama fibers to help clean up the crude, she didn’t hesitate to have him sheared.

Lonestar is so kind and patient that he’d give the woolly shirt off his back to help for a good cause, she said. “He’s both lovable and usable. All his life he’s worked hard and given joy,” Holm said as Lonestar gazed agreeably through thick-lashed eyes.

Holm and other members of the Central Oregon Llama Association convened in May for a group shearing of their long-necked pets. They came up with 230 pounds of fleece to send for the cleanup effort, said association Vice President Sharon Parr, who delivered five boxes to a Bend post office.

“I had mailed llama fibers off to make good blankets and rugs before,” Parr said. “But to clean up oil? This was a first.”

The owners paid for the shearing, and the local llama association paid for the shipping, Parr said.

The fibers were sent to warehouses in the Gulf region, including Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, said Larry McCool of the Pacific Northwest Llama Fiber Cooperative, who worked with Matter of Trust, a nonprofit environmental agency in San Francisco that is spearheading the donation effort. Volunteers in coastal communities are stuffing the fleece into nylons donated by hosiery companies to make booms that sop up the oil, according to the agency’s website.

The booms, which resemble “giant hair sausages,” are proving effective, McCool said from his home in Jefferson.

“I saw a video of the booms being used in the water down there,” he said. “I could see them sucking up the floating oil like sponges.”

Holm raises llamas for breeding and also for pets. She got Lonestar shortly after she moved to Bend 16 years ago.

She loved him so much she started a ranch and bought more llamas. She describes them as “smart, curious and stately.” They eat grass and hay and are easy to train, she said. Llamas cost anywhere from $300 to $3,000, depending on the quality of the fibers they produce, she said.

There are roughly 200 llama owners in Central Oregon, according to McCool, “more than anywhere else in Oregon.”

While Oregon llamas’ lessergrade fibers are contributing to the oil cleanup, the top-grade fleece is being woven into blankets processed by Pendleton Woolen Mills. McCool’s llama fiber cooperative then sells the blankets, which bear bright blue labels that say, “Westland Wovens by Pendleton.” The first year, 100 blankets sold.

The next — 2009 — the cooperative sold 500, McCool said.

“A large percentage of the fibers that went into those blankets came from Central Oregon llamas,” McCool said. “You folks produce lots of good llamas.”

Holm couldn’t agree more, her proof standing only a few feet away. “Come to Mama,” she instructed Lonestar, who strutted over with his furry neck craned.

“He’s my pal. My partner.”

How to go from patio to ‘catio’

By Jennifer A. Kingson New York Times News Service

When it comes to their homes, there are few things New Yorkers prize as much as a little outdoor space — a terrace, perhaps, or a small deck in the backyard.

Their cats feel the same way.

Some cat owners who would never dream of letting their pets roam free outside have come up with a creative compromise: an enclosed space — usually in the form of a screened-in porch or deck — that allows them to share the great outdoors.

Please don’t call it a cage. They prefer the term “catio.”

“The cats, they like to sit out there,” said Stefanie Russell, 44, referring to the balcony of her 12th-floor Greenwich Village apartment, where a homemade enclosure keeps her three Burmese cats safe. “Before, we basically didn’t use the balcony at all, because we were afraid that the cats would fall or jump.”

Two years ago, she and her husband, Robert Davidson, who are on the faculty of The NYU College of Dentistry, fenced off half the balcony, which runs the length of the apartment. They used industrial-grade PVC pipe and heavy black netting, creating a fully enclosed space that they decorated with furniture, plants and carpeting.

Now the couple and their 9-year-old daughter, Sophie, leave the terrace door open for Oliver, Lily and Jackson, who are, as Russell put it, “the type of cats that love to run out in the hallway.”

Catios have made inroads in the suburbs, where they range from small, practical structures — like a box made of wood and chicken wire — to all-out fantasy cat playgrounds, replete with tunnels and scratching posts.

Park Slope resident Rose-Marie Whitelaw turned her entire 10-by-20-foot deck into a haven for her seven cats. Using pipes, chicken wire and deer fencing, she erected a 7-foot railing that the cats cannot climb, then spray-painted it black so it would be less obtrusive.

“I’m kind of handy with copper piping and a blowtorch,” said Whitelaw, 50.

She and her husband, Russell Piekarski, have an outdoor picnic table where they eat meals among the cats in nice weather.

Sliding glass doors lead to a kitchen and home office, and the cats can usually go in and out all year round.

Cat-sized business These catios are the do-it-yourself variety, but several companies, most of them mom-andpop, sell ready-made cat enclosures or build custom ones. A big name in the market is Kittywalk Systems, a 9-year-old business in Port Washington, N.Y., run by Jeff and Lise King. It sells modular cat enclosures — tubes and rooms — that can be used individually or fashioned into catsized kingdoms, much like the Habitrail system for hamsters.

“People can be very creative,” said King, who designed her first cat pen a decade ago for her daughter’s kitten. “You’re really only limited by your imagination and your pocketbook.”

She now sells enclosures in dozens of shapes and sizes, some with fanciful names like the Penthouse (with three tiers of hammocks) and the Ferris Wheel (it looks like one). Kittywalk also sells strollers for cats and dogs.

And as a support-the-troops

Want a ‘catio’?

Cat owners who want to create a safe, outdoor space for their cats have several options:

D O -IT-YOURSELF: Equipment like PVC piping, heavy mesh nets and chicken wire is available at Home Depot and other supply stores.

Various websites offer photos, construction tips and other pointers.

• A website called just4cats. com sells a book with detailed drawings and instructions on how to build a cat enclosure, for $25 plus $5 shipping. The site also has an attractive gallery of its customers’ installations.

Robert Davidson and Stefanie Russell hang with their cat Oliver in their homemade “catio” in Greenwich Village, New York, on May 18. gesture, the Kings have sent cat enclosures to American military bases in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“The thing that gives me the most gratification is that cats like my products,” King said.

The ins and outs Even indoors, a cat enclosure can be a boon, said Carole Wilbourn a cat therapist in Manhattan who recommends them to clients struggling with what she calls “inter-cat hostility.”

“I have cases where someone is introducing another cat, and they have a studio apartment,” Wilbourn said. “It’s kind of hard for them to put up a barrier” for the cats to get used to each other without fighting, she said. An enclosure keeps the cats separate — but within eye range — until they can get along.

Veterinarians disagree over whether it is depressing for cats to spend their lives indoors.

Some, like Drew Weigner, a cat specialist in Atlanta, believe that outdoor space offers cats emotional benefits. While it is safer for them to stay inside, “in an enclosed yard, they’re going to get more exercise,” Weigner said.

“Plus, there’s the intellectual stimulation, quote-unquote.”

Weigner advises suburban cat owners to keep outdoor enclosures off the ground, to guard against fleas and parasites. He pointed to the American Association of Feline Practitioners’ Web page on environmental enrichment which recommends several types of fencing for suburban cats.

Arnold Plotnick, a veterinarian who owns the Manhattan Cat Specialists practice on the Upper West Side, agrees that stimula-

tion is good, but does not think that cats need to go outside.

“Cats are really fine being indoors their entire lives,” he said.

“That’s why they’re the perfect New York City pet.” But he warns against high-rise syndrome, in which cats leap or fall out of unsecured windows .

Catio options For cat owners in the city, there are a few off-the-shelf options. On the low end of the market are collapsible, stand-alone enclosures that can be used on a terrace or deck (or indoors) and cost as little as $40. For people with small yards, there are room-sized enclosures — typically with a few shelves where cats can sleep or look around — that can be bought or built for $125 to $500.

In suburbia, where space isn’t a problem, catios tend to be more elaborate. “We have some clients that decorate the inside as if it’s just another room — a picnic table, cat grass — so they can hang out there with their cats,” said Kris Kischer, founder of Habitat Havenin Toronto, which sells dog and cat enclosures.

She offers predesigned kits “that are sort of in the IKEA realm, very

easy to put together,” and also does custom installations. “Some clients fax in exactly what they want; other clients send us photos and then give us a call,” Kischer said. “Then we can talk about measurements and we can design what they need for their space.”

Among her customers are Madelaine Ann Hare and her spouse, Patti Holloway, who live in a six-bedroom house in Toronto with three Abyssinian cats.

Kischer turned their secondfloor porch into a cat enclosure, then built a 25-foot walkway that extends to a large oak tree and encircles it. The structure is about 20 feet off the ground.

The cats are “in and out of there all day and night,” said Hare, 59, a retired lawyer. “We leave it open March through October, and the cats are perfectly safe there, nothing can get to them.”

The cats — Jasper, Quincy and Nelson —are well known to the neighborhood squirrels, Hare said. “They calculatedly come and look for the cats and wait for them,” she said. “The squirrels will circle the tree, and the cats will chase after them, then the squirrels will turn around and chatter at the cats.”

Hare’s tree fort may sound elaborate, but it is modest in comparison with what Kara and Dean McCormick built at their home near Port Jefferson, N.Y. The couple, who have four cats, got engaged on April 15, 2005 (a nod to Kara McCormick’s profession as a tax accountant), and began planning their dream catio the next day.

Using products from Kischer and instructions from a website called Just4Cats.com, the McCormicks erected two large outdoor pens connected by a 44foot tunnel. The front enclosure — 10 feet square and 7 feet high — abuts the house and has a cedar floor and shelves where the cats can lounge.

From there, the long tunnel,

• Kittywalk Systems (kittywalksystems.com) sells modular cat enclosures that can be used individually or combined into elaborate cat playgrounds (think of them as Habitrail for cats). Among the freestanding models are a 6-foot-tall teepee ($399.95) that can be set up on a balcony or deck and a 5-foot-tall “penthouse” with enough hammocks for three cats ($179.95).

• SafeKitty (safekitty.com) is a mom-and-pop company in Buxton, Maine, that sells off-the-shelf and custom-made enclosures, starting at $449 for a standard 6-by-6-by-6-foot box. The pieces are made with white cedar from the Maine woods.

The cats go out in all weather, McCormick said, especially when she starts running the vacuum.

“We wanted our pets to go out safely and not annoy the neighbors,” she said. “We wanted them to enjoy the wildlife, the songbirds, get fresh air and get some exercise.” The couple is now planning home renovations, which will include adding a second floor and — yes — expanding the cat enclosure.

Dry beans: Out of the pantry and into your dinner

By Jan Roberts-Dominguez For The Bulletin

I once worked aboard a cruise ship. As guest chef aboard the Royal Viking Sun, I was expected to present three one-hour cooking seminars to the other passengers during the ship’s nine-day crossing of the Pacific, from Hawaii to China. My three cooking seminars were to be sandwiched between the early-morning guest lecturers from Georgetown University and the evening song and dance extravaganzas of Carol Lawrence and the Royal Viking Singers and Dancers.

So, the morning after our departure from the Hawaiian Islands, I met with the chef de cuisine, Manfred Jaud, to discuss my presentations. Chef Jaud informed me that his staff would prepare everything for me — the cutting, slicing and chopping. They would also prepare the recipes in their entirety to provide generous sample tastes for the audience.

That was fine with me. Great, in fact. But when we began reviewing the list of ingredients for my second presentation, a slight problem arose: The ship had left Hawaii without stocking up on canned refried beans.

“But I’ll make them for you,” assured the young Austrian chef.

“How would you like them? Completely mashed, some whole beans or many whole beans? And what kind of beans? Black beans? Pinto beans? Kidney beans?”

After settling the style and size of mash, he said, “I will add some feta cheese as well.”

Keep dry beans in your pantry for great kitchen improvisations. For tips on storing and preparing dry beans, plus three delicious summer bean dishes, see Page F2.

To start Be sure to choose the right worms.

A successful vermiculture project starts with the right worms. The best for composting are red worms, or red wigglers. They are available commercially in Central Oregon and differ from the plain brown earthworms normally found in the ground. Red wigglers have a big appetite, reproduce quickly and thrive in confinement. Under ideal conditions, they can eat more than their own weight in garbage every day.

Where to find worms locally: Red wiggler worms are available at the following locations and some local plant nurseries: • Westside Village Magnet School: 541-383-6205. Call and set up a time to pick up worms.

• Laurie Perez: 541-390-7610, wonderworman.com.

• Rockton Ranch in Redmond: Call 541-548-0789 and leave a message.

What about the bin?

A bin only needs to be 8 to 16 inches deep, since red wigglers are surface feeders. You can use a washtub, dish pan, used shipping crate or a commercially available worm bin. Just be sure the bin has a lid to keep out flies and rodents, and small holes in the bottom for ventilation and drainage. The rule of thumb for bin size is 2 square feet of surface area per person, or 1 square foot of surface area per pound of food waste per week, according to “Worms Eat My Garbage” by Mary Appelhof.

Worms will eat just about anything, but they have favorites, too. Some of my worms’ top picks are: stale bread, apple cores, banana peels, watermelon rinds, lettuce trimmings and coffee grounds.

Start by putting some partially decomposed or finished compost in the bin along with some bedding, such as shredded newspapers, leaves or organic yard waste. Then add worms. Start out feeding the worms a little at a time. As they multiply, add more food waste. Bury the material in the bedding, using a different spot in the bin with each addition. By the time you return to the first spot, most of the food buried there should have been eaten. If not, don’t worry. Just cut back on the feed.

Because worms like moderate temperatures, place your bin in a shady, protected location where it will be exposed to fewer temperature extremes.

ultiple generations of red wiggler worms and I have had a win-win partnership for well over 15 years. I feed the worms my organic table scraps,

they eat it and produce castings, or worm waste, loaded with nitrogen. I put the castings in my plant beds or broadcast them on my lawn.

An effective compost setup provides an atmosphere for the controlled decomposition of organic material, such as leaves, twigs, grass clippings and vegetable waste. Composting with worms, or vermiculture, is a variation of this concept. It is easy to get started: Buy or build a bin of some sort, throw in some red wigglers with the vegetable scraps from your kitchen, add some bedding, such as shredded newspapers or dried yard waste, and let the worms go to work.

But the worms also work well in an existing compost pile, as long as the compost isn’t too hot (some decomposing material can generate heat). Originally, I put red wigglers in my commercial black plastic com• For video of composting post bin to speed up the decomposiwith red wigglers, visit tion process.

I place a layer of newspapers directly on the compost, then place an old piece of mattress pad foam on top of that. The lid is replaced, and the worms thrive. Even on the coldest days, when snow accumulates on the bin top, the worms do fine. I’ve never had a problem overwintering my vermiculture project in Central Oregon, even during the deepest cold snaps.

Ernie Hahn, of La Pine, has been using worms as part of his composting efforts for about 10 years. During the winter, he moves some of his worms to his garage, where they work all winter in relative warmth.

The worms outside burrow down into the compost pile and appear again when it gets warm in the spring, Hahn said.

Bring out the ‘sweet’ in this beet At the Market is a weekly look at produce available at local farmers markets.

By Eleanor Pierce The Bulletin

Beets are a divisive root vegetable; people love them or hate them. While I fall firmly into the love category, I know some people who say beets taste like dirt. Personally, I would describe the flavor as sweetly earthy.

Most commonly, the bulb of the beet is (a staincausing) garnet red. Other varieties may be different shades of gold, or in the case of the candy cane beet, ringed in pink and white.

Select beets with firm skin, and if the edible greens are attached, make sure they’re crisp. Remove the greens as soon as you get home.

Some eat raw, shredded beets, but the earthy flavor is especially strong when raw. More often, beets are cooked, allowing the sweetness to develop. One easy cooking method involves washing the beets, cutting off all but about 1 inch of the stem and wrapping each bulb in foil. Place all of the beets on a cookie sheet and bake at about 400 degrees for 45 minutes to an hour and a half. Check if they’re done by inserting a thin knife; it should slide in easily. Remove beets as they are finished cooking, the smaller bulbs will be done first. Once cooked, the skins will slip off easily and the stem can be cut away. Beets can also be steamed or boiled, or try roasting them with olive oil, garlic and rosemary.

Simply cooked beets are delicious tossed with a vinaigrette or a mixture of butter, salt and herbs.

Chives or parsley would work, but I used some fresh tarragon, and the anise flavor of the herb created a surprisingly tasty combination. Alternately, the cooked beets can be chilled and eaten alone or tossed in a salad. A popular combination with beets is goat or blue cheese and toasted walnuts.

Troubleshooting Pete Erickson / The Bulletin

Suppose you have done everything right — you think — but the system seems to have a few problems. Here’s some advice from local composting expert Kelly Walker.

The bin smells bad.

Any compost pile can develop an odor issue. The bacteria and fungus that cause decomposition need oxygen to live and work. If the air supply is cut off because the materials are too wet or compacted, the bin may start to smell.

“Check the drainage first,” Walker recommends. “If the bin is too large, it may get too wet. Then the aerobic activity stops and the anaerobic starts, and that can cause the bin to smell.”

Another solution is to mix the ingredients so air is introduced to the materials. Walker also advises cutting back on the amount of garbage being put into the bin until the worms can catch up.

The material must also be soft enough for them to eat.

pad on top of the garbage to help stabilize the temperature extremes. The worms tend to stay just below the newspapers, regardless of the outside temperature.

The garbage can also be too dry for the worms to eat, Walker said, which can create a bad smell and slow decomposition. The solution is to add water and mix the materials. You’ll know you have the right moisture content if you can squeeze a handful of the material and a few drops of water come out, like with a wrung-out sponge.

Reducing the size of the materials put in the bin allows them to break down quicker so the worms can eat them. Some dedicated vermiculturists run their kitchen scraps through a blender before adding them to the worm bin.

The worms died.

The worms don’t seem to be eating much.

Commercial worm composting bins such as this use plastic trays to allow the worms to compost one layer of kitchen waste at a time. Nitrogen-rich “worm tea,” a fertilizing liquid created from the compost, can be dispensed from the bottom.

AT THE MARKET

Under ideal conditions and temperatures, a red wiggler can eat its weight in garbage every day. But worms are also susceptible to temperature variances. If the worm bin is left outside during the winter, Walker said, the worms will get cold, slow down dramatically and may enter a dormant stage. If it gets too hot, the worms will seek a cool area of the bin and reduce their consumption.

Try using newspapers and an insulating

There are any number of circumstances that can cause the worms to perish. After checking the temperature, location and contents of the bin, and the moisture level of the materials, there may be one more variable: your grass clippings. Some chemicals and pesticides applied to lawns can kill worms, and Walker recommends using caution when adding fresh clippings or yard waste to a worm bin.

“Make sure you don’t have pesticides on the grass clippings,” Walker advises.

“And don’t put too many in the bin or it can cause the bin to heat up too much.”

The variety of colors gives the impression of something out of a children’s fairy tale book at Judy and Jim Clinton’s house in Bend.

A modern home that catches the eye

By Penny Nakamura For The Bulletin

As you drive down a forest road in southwest Bend onto Jim and Judy Clinton’s 4.25-acre property, you just know that it’s going to be a treat as you spot the fun, geometric shapes that somehow blend into the natural landscape of dense trees.

“Yes, there was a lot of fun math in designing this house,” said architect Judy Clinton. “There are a lot of different geometric shapes, as you can see.”

This modern, 3,300-square-foot house is full of surprises, from the shapes to the colors, and even how the house was positioned and pinned onto a basalt cliff that’s perched just above the roaring Deschutes River.

The front exterior has what Clinton calls the “giggle factor,” where she took purple, green, red and yellow paints and had some fun with the entry of the house. “I’d really like people to smile and think, ‘Why did she do that? That’s not normal,” she said, laughing. “I always try to think out of the box — it’s a lot more interesting that way.”

Clinton worked as an artist for years at the Scripps Institute in San Diego before pursuing her studies in architecture. Then she worked with one of the bigger architectural firms in that area.

F COVER STORY

Beans Continued from F1 “I don’t think so, Manfred.

Well, maybe some cheddar,” I countered.

“No, I think feta,” he said.

“Our feta, you see, it’s a Danish type, and very similar to what I think they would be using in Mexico.”

I grinned. The chef’s cooking had never disappointed me, so perhaps this would be a wonderful surprise. The next morning when I arrived in the kitchens for a final rundown before the noon presentation, the beans were ready for my tastetesting. They were, of course, marvelous.

“Manfred, how did you do it?”

I raved.

He was obviously pleased.

“Well, first we sauté a little onion in some oil. Then we add a bit of garlic. And then the beans — dry beans — we had soaked and cooked, of course. We mashed them all right for you?”

“Better than all right,” I said.

“These are the best refried beans I’ve had in my life.”

Of course, what this little story illustrates is that even when stuck in the middle of the Pacific Ocean — nine days from the nearest supermarket — if you’ve got dry beans in

your pantry, then you’ve got no problem. Even in summer, these pantry staples can contribute to delicious dishes sure to please.

On land, I feel the same way.

Just about any time I’m peering into the depths of my pantry in search of a different approach to dinner, I tend to haul out my cache of dry beans. With a wide variety on hand, my options are fairly endless, from soups and stews to healthy vegetable dips, side dishes and salads.

So, do I have to get into the health reasons for eating dry beans? Surely we all know by now how loaded they are with protein, good carbohydrates, vitamins and minerals — not to mention that they’re rich in fiber and low in fat. They’ve been a part of the human diet for thousands of years and, as I’ve already said, offer cooks a huge range in flavor and color to play with.

Whether you buy them packaged or in bulk, the choices are wide. So consider keeping a healthy and varied cache on hand. You never know when they’ll come in handy.

Tips on storing and preparing dried beans

STORAGE • Store in a cool dry place in an airtight container. Changes in humidity and temperature may make them difficult to cook properly. Cooked beans can be refrigerated for up to five days, or frozen.

SOAKING • Although the trend is to add dry beans directly to soups and stews without soaking, a soak helps make them easier to digest. Use 2½ quarts of water to each pound of beans. Remember, beans will rehydrate to at least twice their dry size. Use a pot that’s large enough to accommodate the soaking water and the beans in their expanded form.

• Traditional method: Wash beans. Add to boiling water; boil two minutes. Remove from heat; cover and soak 12 hours or overnight. If you don’t cook them right away, keep beans refrigerated. Drain and rinse before cooking.

• Quick method: Wash beans. Add to boiling water; boil 2 to 3 minutes. Cover and soak 1 to 4 hours. Drain and rinse before cooking.

COOKING • Traditional method: Add 3 cups water to each cup of soaked and drained beans in a large pot.

Bring to a boil and simmer until tender. Partially cover the pot; beans generally boil over if tightly covered.

• Microwave method: Cook the soaked beans, covered, at full power, 8 to 10 minutes or until boiling. Reduce power to 50 percent and cook another 15 to 20 minutes or until the beans are tender; drain and refrigerate until ready to use.

TIPS • 1 tablespoon of oil added to the cooking liquid reduces foaming. • Salt and acidic foods (vinegar, lemon juice and tomatoes) enhance the taste of beans but slow the cooking process, so add them when beans are almost tender. • 1 pound of dry beans equals approximately 2 cups dry and 5 to 6 cups cooked beans.

PINTO BEAN DIP WITH SUN-DRIED TOMATOES Yields about 3 cups of dip.

101 fast recipes for grilling

By Mark Bittman New York Times News Service

Here, in all of their summertime glory, are 101 grilling ideas begging to be tried. Please note that salt and pepper are (usually) understood.

Vegetables and fruits 1. A winter dish, summer style: Brush thick slices of fennel bulbs with olive oil and grill over nottoo-high heat. Cut oranges in half and grill, cut-side down. Put fennel on a bed of arugula or watercress, squeeze grilled oranges over top.

Garnish with fennel fronds.

2. Best grilled artichokes: Cut artichokes in half, scoop out the choke, parboil until tender.

Grill, cut-side down, until lightly browned; grill a couple of halved lemons, too. Combine the juice from the grilled lemons with melted butter and spoon over the artichokes. Finish with parsley.

3. Tahini tofu steaks: Thin tahini with lots of lemon juice and some minced garlic. Cut a brick of firm tofu into four slabs and brush with sesame oil. Grill over a moderate fire, turning a few times, until marked and crisp outside and custardy inside. On the last turn, baste with the tahini sauce. Serve on thick tomato slices with a drizzle of soy sauce and chopped basil, Thai if possible.

4. Spice-rubbed carrots: Roll peeled carrots in cumin, salt, pepper and brown sugar. Char, then move them away from direct heat and cover until carrots are tender.

5. Grill bread; grind in a food processor to make coarse bread crumbs. (You can add garlic and/ or parsley and/or Parmesan, or not.) Grill asparagus until tender.

Top with bread crumbs and olive oil.

6. Brush slices of beet with olive oil and grill slowly until tender and lightly browned. Top each slice with a little goat cheese and some salad greens.

7. For perfectly ripe tomatoes only: Grill tomatoes, any size, until hot and lightly charred but not bursting. Drizzle with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and serve with fresh mozzarella (or, even better, burrata) and grilled bread.

8. Halve and grill radicchio (or Belgian endives); drizzle cut sides with honey or plain vinaigrette, pesto or parsley pesto. Or just brush with oil and finish with a little grilled prosciutto.

9. Grilled guacamole: Halve and pit avocados; lightly char them, then scoop out the flesh. Grill halved red onion, too. Chop, combine, add tomatoes, lime, garlic and spices if you’d like.

10. Grill corn. Serve with mayo with minced garlic, pimenton and parsley.

11. Grill more corn. Serve with curry-powder-laced yogurt and minced onion.

12. Grill corn again. Serve with coconut milk, cilantro and mint.

13. Root vegetable of your choice: Slice celeriac — or jicama, big potatoes, daikon or yams — and grill slowly, until very tender and browned. Drizzle with olive oil or melted butter and sprinkle with chopped rosemary or sage and olive oil.

14. Choose another root. Slice it, but this time char lightly and leave it crunchy. Chop and toss with chopped cilantro, a pinch of cayenne and juice of grilled lime.

15. Rub thick zucchini slices with a mixture of fresh or dried dill, yogurt, olive oil and lemon.

Or use pesto. Grill slowly.

16. More shopping than cooking: Grill an array of radishes on little skewers, four to six each.

Serve with butter, salt and bread.

17. Halve Belgian endives. Brush with olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper and grill over moderate to low heat, turning once or twice, until soft and browned. Finish cut-side up and sprinkle with grated Parmesan; close the grill to

Strawberries, peaches, plums and watermelon grilled on a skewer then drizzled with balsamic vinegar. melt cheese.

18. Lightly char whole or halved heads of baby bok choy; drizzle with soy sauce and top with chopped scallions.

19. Peel and thickly slice a not overly ripe mango. Brush very lightly with neutral oil and grill just until softened; sprinkle with cilantro and/or mint and lime juice (you might as well grill the lime first, too).

20. Grill pineapple (or anything, really, from pork to tofu to eggplant). Make a sauce of half-cup peanut butter, a tablespoon (or more) soy sauce, a dash (or more) sriracha chili sauce, a handful of basil or mint and enough warm water to thin. (I’m tempted to say, “Throw away the pineapple and eat the sauce,” but the combination is sensational.)

21. Waldorf salad revisited, sort of: Grill cut apples until browned but not mushy; grill chunks of Napa or savoy cabbage, also left crisp; grill halved red onion. Chop or shred all together with blue cheese, walnuts and a little yogurt.

22. Cut a slit in as many ripe figs as you’d like; stuff with herbed goat cheese (or cream cheese mixed with chopped nuts) and grill slowly. Appetizer or dessert? Your call.

23. Grill red, orange and/or yellow peppers; toss with olives, capers, balsamic vinegar and olive oil.

24. Quick grilled pickle: Rapidly char thick slices of cucumber; toss with salt, vinegar and sugar; let sit for 15 minutes, then drain.

25. Charred salsa verde. Toss whole husked tomatillos, scallions and jalapeños in olive oil and grill until charred. Remove the blackened skin from the chilies and chop or blend everything with diced avocado, lime juice and cilantro. Eat with chips or top grilled chicken with it.

Meat 26. Mideast lamb chops: Shoulder cuts are the best and the cheapest; just don’t burn them. Marinate them briefly in yogurt, lemon, cardamom and mint. Serve with lemon and parsley.

27. Midwest pork chops: Again, shoulder; again, don’t burn. Marinate briefly in spicy mustard, chopped garlic and apple cider.

28. Six-minute steak (or maybe four): Salt skirt steak and grill it, quickly. Top with queso fresco, thinly sliced red onion (you could grill it first, if you like) and the juice of grilled lime.

29. Six-minute steak, plus a little marinating time: Soak skirt steak in a mixture of soy, lime juice, garlic, ginger and sugar (or mirin) before grilling. (The time it takes to heat the grill is long enough.)

30. Smear chicken leg quarters (or thighs) with a paste of garlic, chopped rosemary (thyme, too, if you’d like), olive oil and the juice of grilled lemon. Grill away from heat, covered; crisp briefly over high heat.

THE BULLETIN • Tuesday, July 6, 2010 F3

F From previous page 31. Steak au poivre: Sirloin strip is ideal. Press lots of cracked black pepper into both sides, sprinkle with salt and grill over fairly high heat, about three to four minutes on each side. Slice quarter-inch thick before serving.

32. Crisp (and better) duck a l’orange: Score the skin of duck breasts and press rosemary leaves, salt and pepper into both sides.

Grill skin-side down over lowish heat until crackly, then turn and grill briefly. Serve with grilled orange halves.

33. Smear hanger, skirt, flatiron or other steak with mustard. Grill and serve with grilled shallots.

34. Brush chicken thighs — boned or not — with basil, parsley or cilantro pesto. Boneless and skinless thighs can be grilled over direct heat; thighs with skin should be started away from heat.

35. Fast lamb leg: Use steaks cut from the leg, and rub them with a mix of warm spices: cumin, coriander, cinnamon and turmeric.

Grill quickly, serve hot.

36. Spread flank steak or butterflied lamb leg with garlic, parsley and lemon zest. Roll and tie, or fold. (Or grill without further fuss, adding more paste occasionally.)

37. Moist grilled chicken breast?

Yes: Pound chicken breast thin, top with chopped tomato, basil and Parmesan; roll, skewer and grill over not-high heat until just done.

38. Call it grilled chicken Parm: Pound breast thin, top one side with sliced tomato, mozzarella and Parmesan; fold in half, seal with a toothpick or skewer and grill for a few minutes on each side.

39. Pork (or veal) saltimbocca: Pound pork or veal cutlets thin; top with ham (prosciutto preferably) and cheese (maybe Gruyere). Roll, cook on skewers and serve with pickles.

40. Slice pork shoulder thin. Fry lots of sesame seeds, minced garlic, fresh minced chili in sesame oil; off heat, stir in some soy sauce.

Grill the pork fast over high heat, smearing with the sesame paste right after flipping. Serve with lettuce leaves and cilantro, basil and/ or mint for wrapping.

41. Bacon-wrapped hot dog. You know you want one.

Fish and shellfish 42. Grill thick onion slices; purée in a blender with olive oil and lemon juice. Grill scallops for about four minutes; serve with the vinaigrette.

43. Salmon tartare with grilled stuff: Lightly grill radishes, scallions, lime halves and, if you’d like, plantain disks. Serve the plantains under, and the other things next to, chopped raw salmon (preferably wild) seasoned with salt and pepper.

44. Grill sardines or mackerel; serve with a squeeze of grilled lemon, grapefruit or both.

45. Stuff whole gutted trout with slices of lemon and chopped marjoram or oregano. Wrapping in bacon is optional. One per person is best.

Char quickly over a very hot fire.

47. Shrimp, part 1: Rub with chili powder and salt, and grill quickly.

Finish with cilantro and the juice of grilled lime halves.

48. Shrimp, part 2: Rub with olive oil, salt and cumin. Finish with the juice of grilled lemon halves; garnish with chopped marjoram, if you have it, parsley if you don’t.

49. Shrimp, part 3: Rub with curry powder. Drizzle with warm coconut milk and chopped mint, basil and/or cilantro.

50. Grilled tuna nicoise: Brush tuna with olive oil and grill; keep it rare. (You might grill some new potatoes while you’re at it.) Serve with more olive oil, lemon juice, cherry tomatoes, olives, grilled red onion and parsley. Green beans and hard-cooked eggs are optional.

51. Grilled clams on the half shell: Get them shucked (or cook in the microwave or on the grill until opened); top with bread crumbs, parsley, lemon, minced cooked bacon (optional). Grill until topping is hot.

52. You think you don’t like bluefish? Grill it, then drizzle with a mixture of chopped fennel fronds (or crushed fennel seeds), melted butter and the juice of grilled grapefruit or orange.

53. White fillets with spice: Mix salt, sugar, chili powder and paprika. Rub on sturdy white fish fillets (make sure the grill grates are clean and well oiled).

54. Buy shucked oysters. Top with juice of grilled lemon. Period.

A fennel bulb, a variety of citrus, a duck breast, tomatoes, soft-shell crabs, mackerel, carrots and radishes all share space on the grill.

Francesco Tonelli New York Times News Service

(You could grill shallots, mince and make a grilled mignonette, but this is better.)

55. Grill soft-shell crabs, brushing with melted butter and Tabasco. A little charring of the claw tips isn’t a bad thing.

56. Simmer octopus tentacles until tender (this may take a couple of hours); cool. Grill; cut into attractive little rounds and drizzle with lemon and olive oil.

57. Grill wild salmon (preferably king or sockeye) until not-welldone. Toss diced cucumbers with fresh dill, olive oil and lemon juice.

Serve salmon hot, slaw cold.

Kebabs 58. Shrimp and chorizo. Serve with lemon or a little vinaigrette.

59. Lamb and carrots. In last few minutes, brush with miso thinned with a tiny bit of mirin (or sherry, wine or water).

60. Lamb and onions. Brush with a mixture of cumin and olive oil as they sizzle. You can add bell peppers, too, but somehow the stark minimalism of this is pleasing.

61. Odd, but good: Strawberries and cherry tomatoes, finished with basil-laced balsamic vinegar.

62. The New Yawk special: Italian sausage, peppers and onions.

63. The California special: Figs, with chunks of good bacon.

64. Kebab or hero? Your choice: Cut brussels sprouts in half; grill slowly on skewers, with chunks of sausage. Both slowly crisp as they cook.

65. Bread salad on a stick: Cubes of bread, black olives and cherry tomatoes. Don’t grill too long, and drizzle with basil or thyme or parsley vinaigrette.

66. Peaches, plums, strawberries and watermelon. Finish with a sprinkle of salt and perhaps a drizzle of balsamic vinegar.

67. Cubes of mango and chunks of white fish; brush with a mixture of soy, fish sauce, sriracha chili sauce and chopped mint or cilantro. Serve with a mai tai.

68. Go Hawaiian or Italian: Wrap pineapple or melon in prosciutto. Grill briefly.

Salads 69. Grilled coleslaw: Lightly char wedges of green and red cabbage and carrots. Let cool, then shred and toss with a little mayo, vinegar, salt and sugar.

70. Grill halved new potatoes or fingerlings (microwave or parboil first for a few minutes to get a head start), red onions and scallions.

Chop as necessary and toss with chopped celery, parsley, mustard and cider (or other) vinegar. I make this annually.

71. Toss grilled Lacinato kale leaves with a little Caesar salad dressing (or olive oil, lemon and Parmesan) and grilled croutons.

72. Char iceberg wedges and cherry tomatoes (skewer these first). Top with blue cheese dressing.

73. Lightly grill ripe figs; brush with balsamic. Chop and toss with arugula and blue cheese. Sprinkle with olive oil.

74. Steak salad with almost no steak: Halve endives or radicchio; brush with oil and grill. Sprinkle with bits of blue cheese and bits of charred steak.

75. Ratatouille: Grill chunks of zucchini, yellow squash, mushrooms, eggplant, onion and tomatoes (or use cherry tomatoes), all until lightly browned and perfectly tender. Toss with fresh marjoram or oregano, thyme, basil and olive oil.

Burgers 76. Greek salad burger: Ground lamb with grated feta, chopped kalamatas and a little oregano.

Top with tomato, red onion and cucumber.

77. The pickled onions make it:

Soak sliced red onions in diluted vinegar and salt while you prepare everything else. Combine ground lamb with grated carrots and cumin; grill, then top with onions.

78. Asian burger: Grind pork, combine with grated daikon and a little soy sauce. Brush with hoisin or miso and top with sliced and salted cucumbers.

79. Grind beef, combine with crumbled blue cheese and chopped toasted walnuts. Top with sliced grilled pear.

80. A chicken or turkey burger worth eating: Cook and chop bacon; mix with ground chicken (or turkey) and grill.

81. Another: Grind turkey, combine with chopped basil, shove a cube of mozzarella into the center, grill until well done (the cheese will melt). Top with tomato and more basil.

82. Grind salmon (actually, it’s better if you grind half and chop half) and combine with chopped scallions and soy sauce. Grill medium-rare, top with mayo spiked with ginger, soy and/or lime.

83. Philly cheesesteak burger: Grind beef and grill with mushrooms and onions; top with aged provolone.

Sandwiches and bread 84. Actual grilled cheese: Use good bread, good cheese, tomato slices and maybe a little mustard; brush with melted butter or olive oil and grill with a weight on top.

85. Glorified grilled cheese: Use grilled pineapple, grilled ham, cheese, pickles and mayo; grill with a weight on top.

86. Grill bell peppers until blackened and collapsed; cover, cool and peel. Grill eggplant planks, brushed with olive oil (or pesto if you have it), until very tender.

Make a sandwich with balsamic vinegar, mozzarella and basil.

This is also good with strip or skirt steak: Grill meat until mediumrare, then slice and salt.

87. Grilled quesadilla (simple): Fill a flour tortilla with queso fresco, Monterey Jack or Cheddar; add chicken, shrimp and/or tomato.

Fold and grill until cheese melts.

88. Grilled quesadilla (not as simple): Grill and strip corn from the cob; grill red-onion slices and chop them. Combine both with chili powder and bind with a tiny bit of mayo or yogurt. Put between two flour tortillas with cheese and grill. Serve with grilled lime wedges.

89. A different kind of Cuban sandwich: Grill pork steaks (best from the shoulder, about half-inch thick). Put on baguette spread with well-seasoned mashed black beans, queso fresco, chopped red onion (grilled or not), cilantro and lime juice.

90. Grill pork steaks as above; grill red onions. Slice the meat, chop the onions, toss with thinly sliced apples and roll in lavash bread or stuff in pita with yogurtdill dressing. You can use the meat as an accent, or as the dominant ingredient.

91. Grill sweet Italian sausage and some figs. Combine on a toasted hot dog bun; mustard is optional.

92. Grill split kielbasa or chorizo (the Spanish type). Serve in buns, filled with chopped Manchego and mayo spiked with pimenton. Some chopped dried apricots would be good, too.

Desserts 93. An idea whose time has come: Halve and grill peaches, nectarines or apricots. Brush with barbecue sauce or, if you want to be sophisticated, a mixture of bourbon, sugar and mint, or simple syrup laced with basil.

94. An idea whose time will come in September: Halve and grill pears or apples. When they’re done, drizzle with yogurt, honey and a pinch of cardamom.

95. Grilled fruit salad, and why not? Toss grilled watermelon (really good), peaches, plums, pineapple and kiwi with honey, a little salt, lemon juice and tarragon (not much), chervil, basil or mint (or a combo).

96. Cut grapefruit in half.

Sprinkle with brown sugar; grill, cut-side down. You might top this with chopped pistachios or a little honey.

97. Grilled shortbread or poundcake (store-bought is totally fine) topped with grilled fruit sauce, strawberries in sugar, yogurt, ice cream, whatever.

98. Grilled angel food cake or poundcake (again, store-bought is fine) topped with Nutella, chocolate sauce, sorbet, etc.

99. Grilled s’mores: Put graham crackers (or other good quality flat cookie) on foil, top with marshmallows and chocolate and another cracker. Grill until the chocolate and marshmallow begin to melt.

100. Cut bananas into thick rounds (like scallops almost), char quickly and serve with caramel sauce, brown sugar, vanilla ice cream, Nutella … whatever.

101. Actually, this is a drink: Skewer green olives, then char them a bit. These would be a good garnish for shrimp, chorizo or anything else. But instead, make yourself a fantastic dirty martini.

Make it and take it — recipes that travel well The Washington Post Readers often ask for recipes that travel well, especially at this time of year, when picnick-

ing and alfresco parties have folks scrambling for foods that can beat the heat. Here are two recipes that fill the bill.

NEW POTATOES WITH CHERVIL VINAIGRETTE Makes 4 servings.

1 lb small new potatoes 3 TBS olive oil 1 TBS red wine vinegar or sherry vinegar 1 ⁄8 tsp salt Pinch ground black pepper 1 sm shallot, minced (1 TBS)

10 to 15 stems chives, chopped (1 TBS) Leaves from 2 stems flat-leaf parsley, chopped (1 TBS) Leaves from 18 small sprigs chervil, chopped (2 TBS)

Place the potatoes in a large pot and add water to cover by several inches. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then cook for 10 to 20 minutes, just until tender; check often, as the cooking time will depend on the size and freshness of the potatoes.

Drain, and allow to cool for a few minutes.

While the potatoes are cooling, whisk together the oil, vinegar, salt, pepper and shallot in a small bowl. When the potatoes have cooled enough to handle, cut them in half and place them in a medium serving bowl.

Whisk the vinaigrette once more, and pour it over the warm potatoes. Toss gently until the potatoes are well coated. Just before serving, add the chives, parsley and chervil; toss to evenly distribute the herbs. Serve warm or at room temperature.

SUGAR SNAP PEA AND BARLEY SALAD Makes six 2⁄3 C servings.

2 C water 1 C quick-cooking barley 8 oz fresh sugar snap peas, ends and strings removed, cut on the diagonal 1 ⁄4 med red onion finely chopped (1⁄4 to 1⁄3 C)

Leaves from 1⁄4 bunch flat-leaf parsley, chopped (1⁄2 C) 2 TBS extra-virgin olive oil Freshly squeezed juice from 1⁄2 or 1 lemon (2 TBS) 3 ⁄4 tsp salt 1 ⁄4 tsp ground black pepper

Bring water to a boil in a medium saucepan over mediumhigh heat. Stir in the barley; cover, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 10 to 12 minutes or according to the package directions. Remove from heat; cover and let stand for 5 minutes.

Pour the barley into a colander and rinse with cool water; let drain for a few minutes, then transfer to a large bowl.

Add the snap peas, parsley, onion, oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper; toss to combine. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

COVER STORY

Clinton Continued from F1 Before building this house, Clinton and her husband, Bend City Councilor Jim Clinton, first built his office up the forest road.

It has the same quirky, modernistic, geometric forms of the main house, but on a smaller scale.

Clinton says her husband, a physicist and owner and CEO of his own research and development company, was all for a modern approach to building in the forest, and pretty much gave her free rein to work her architectural magic in the forest.

Light and space The main entry to the house is through an air lock entry. This is designed to keep the home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Visitors enter through the front door to a small entry room, then through another door to the main corridor.

The first thing you’re likely to notice after coming through the air lock is the beautiful translucent light streaming high above you. It comes from a filtered, textural skylight that encompasses the entire corridor.

To make it efficient, the Clintons made sure this long window had four layers of insulation. To add some fun, Clinton had the crossbeams painted red.

The main portion of the house is divided into six rooms, though three of these rooms have an open floor plan.

The focal point of the living room is the fireplace and the incredible views out the window to the Deschutes River.

The metal and granite fireplace was hand built by Jim Clinton, and the walnut mantle was a piece of wood that came from Judy’s family’s lumberyard in Wisconsin.

Snaking around the hardwood floors in the open living room are slate tiles, which serve as a ther-

The main entryway to Judy and Jim Clinton’s house in Bend is lighted from above by a skylight that runs the entire corridor. For efficiency, the window has four layers of insulation. For a touch of whimsy, the crossbeams are painted red. mal mass. The Clintons installed radiant floor heating, and while the wood insulates, Judy says the slate makes it nice and “comfy warm” in the winter.

As one might guess from a home like this, Clinton loves her modern pieces of furniture, which in some cases look like works of modern art. Many of the pieces she says she purchased at furnish, a modern furniture store in Bend.

Behind the living room is an open library/television room with built-in shelving.

Across from the living room is the open dining room. The area between these two rooms has a rounded, vaulted ceiling, and Clinton says she was inspired to use the curved trusses on the wooden ceiling by some of the old buildings she had seen in the Old Mill District.

“I know some of these shapes look random, but they’re really

The spacious living room has a rounded ceiling inspired by old buildings in the Old Mill District.

The sharp corners and angles in the stairway at Judy and Jim Clinton’s house. “I have these twisted rooms, and the windows are all angled.

It’s different,” Judy Clinton says. “I think a lot of my inspiration came from Frank Lloyd Wright. I grew up in Wisconsin, and some of my friends growing up there lived in Wright houses, and I always loved the designs.”

Judy Clinton stands next to an acute angle corner with the front door to the left and the living room to the right behind her. not,” Clinton explained. “The sculptural presence gives it a sense of balance and creates spaces.”

All three of these open rooms are steeped in daylight thanks to the dozens of windows all around, including a wall of windows that encloses a greenhouse.

If you should step down from the living room and open another air lock glass door, you’ll find yourself in the greenhouse, where Clinton manages to grow citrus plants such as lemons and limes year round. She starts her vegetable seedlings in February.

Make no mistake. All this sunlight and focus on sunshine didn’t happen by accident. Clinton went about it very scientifically, making sure she got the most southern exposure sun she could get for this house.

“It was a difficult site. We wanted it to be a solar-oriented house, and we didn’t want to cut down any trees on the property, and we didn’t want windows directly west because you can’t shade them,” Clinton explained. “We wanted passive solar to the south, but our view (of the river) is west. That’s why you see two geometries colliding right here in the dining room and living room.”

Design hurdles, joys Clinton painstakingly drew up six different blueprints and made

six different miniature models, seeking the best way to position the house. The house function is laid out with consideration of the sun’s position throughout the day.

That was the first hurdle.

By the time she decided on the design and the angles she needed the house to face, she encountered another hurdle: getting an engineering/geological firm to OK her desire to pin part of the house on basalt lava rock. At that time, no one else in that area had used the exterior lava rocks as a structural base for a home.

“In 1996, we were the only ones willing to do it; people didn’t realize you could,” Clinton said. “Jim drilled the holes in the lava rocks, and we laid out the whole house.”

Part of the kitchen and deck outside the living room look as if they are cantilevered over the basalt bluff that falls off dramatically into the Deschutes River, but Clinton points to the cleverly hidden footing underneath the house.

The effect is dynamic, as the house looms over the Class 4 rapids of the river below.

In the thoroughly modern kitchen, Clinton, a serious cook and hostess, has views of the river on one side, and out the other window she looks toward her garden and a wooded area. She uses her stainless steel commercial stove and oven when entertaining, and points to an additional wall oven, which she often needs when she’s cooking for one of her parties.

In keeping with her artistic heart, she didn’t use just one type of wood for her kitchen cabinetry.

“I really thought using just one type of wood would be too overwhelming, and, well, boring,” Clinton explained. “So over here I have cherry wood, on this side I

From the main floor, off the library/television room is Clinton’s large office, where she has her drafting table and her work desk area.

Winding through the living room down the skylighted corridor, up the black metal and wood staircase, we enter a small room at the top of the stairs, which Clinton says is her cats’ favorite. The window in this room is oddly shaped and angled, making it look like a window out of a Dr. Seuss book. Clinton likes the whimsy of it.

“I have these twisted rooms, and the windows are all angled.

It’s different,” Clinton said. “I think a lot of my inspiration came from Frank Lloyd Wright. I grew up in Wisconsin, and some of my friends growing up there lived in Wright houses, and I always loved the designs.”

Also on this floor is the more

conventional master bedroom, with a door that leads out to another deck that looks over the Deschutes River.

Going up another dozen steps, we enter another half floor, and Clinton explains the room is not quite complete, but it’s another bedroom with an amazing amount of imagination built in.

The five small windows are not set straight up and down, but rather in a more experimental array.

“I got the idea for these five little square windows from the Presbyterian church in downtown (Bend). Have you ever looked at their little windows? They’re positioned like this, and I just really loved it,” Clinton said.

Though she calls her house “avant-garde contemporary design,” Clinton believes she was successful in letting it coexist in harmony with nature by not cutting down a single tree. The rough, black lava boulders from the outside contrast nicely with the sleek lines and geometry of the house, which is just as Clinton planned it.

“I really want people to think about their assumptions about houses. People can be very adverse to modern houses. It’s not about starkness or being all white and chrome; it can be fun,” Clinton explained. “It’s a breath of fresh air.”

What to do when something smells

We recently spent the winter away. When we returned, our home had a repulsive odor. We have looked everywhere and cannot find the cause.

What can we do?

This is a puzzle that could have a simple answer, or it could require a complex investigation. Possibilities include:

A:

• A dead animal in a wall or other building cavity.

• Sewer gas entering the home through a floor drain or sewer trap that has dried out.

• Fouled paint or old cleaning supplies in a leaky container.

• Standing water in a washing machine.

Because the odor seems to be uniform throughout the house, the furnace fan and duct system — or

something nearby — could harbor the source. Check to see if the odor is stronger anywhere when the furnace fan is not running.

If you have thoroughly searched for the source and found nothing, you should probably call a pro.

Several companies specialize in identifying odors, or you might want to bring in a professional who specializes in indoor environmental quality.

G Trumpeting the lovely lily, lover of hot summer days

By Adrian Higgins The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — If you look at old black-and-white photos of gardens between the world wars, the dominant flower of summer seems to be the lily. Tall and architectural, the stalks are festooned with nodding trumpets, hundreds of them in the richest gardens.

One imagines Jazz Age afternoons, languid and a bit naughty, where the wafting fragrance of Asian lilies mingles with the scent of illicit gin.

The introduction of such pretties as the Regal lily, with up to 20 perfumed white blooms a stem, fostered a mania at a time when gardeners were far more constrained than we are today in plant choices and tastes. “The time has come for the Lilies to take their rightful place in rank next to the Rose,” author and lily fancier Helen Morgenthau Fox wrote in 1928.

I’m not sure that ever happened. We think of true lilies, if we think of them, as cut flowers, the pollen dutifully removed to avoid staining, or as pot plants at Easter. Some people complain of the strong “smell.”

Mention garden lilies, and most of us think of the daylily, which has a passing resemblance to lily blooms but with lots of fleeting flowers from a fountain of leaves.

I am fully besotted at the moment by the lily and walk eagerly in Mrs. Fox’s footsteps: Plant lilies, folks; your lives will be better for it. This passion has been inspired by a clump of a variety

Growing lilies Planting: Lilies need moisture in the growing season, but they rot in heavy, wet ground in winter, so they should be planted in rich, wellamended soil that retains moisture but drains. Plant lily bulbs about eight to 10 inches deep to aid root development.

Sunlight: The flower stalks should be in sunlight, but the bulbs benefit from a little shade, and a light mulch will help cool the soil.

Season: Lily hobbyists prefer to order and plant bulbs in the fall, though spring-shipped bulbs are fine as long as they are planted right away.

Adrian Higgins / The Washington Post

Yelloween, fragrant and relatively short at less than 5 feet tall, is among the many lilies cultivated

by Kathy Welsh, of Vienna, Va. named Altari. In only its second season, the plant has expanded into a tall drift of willing flowers.

Each trumpet, and there are dozens of them, is bone white with a magenta center. The colors work well with the neighboring pinkpurples of the coneflowers and the lavender-blue of the Russian sage.

Apart from Altari’s eye-catching beauty, a couple of attributes stand out. The lily flowers during a lull in the garden, after the first flush of roses, before the blackeyed Susans and sunflowers make a show. It steps on the stage when the days are hot enough to Care: Remove flowers once they fade to prevent the plant from putting energy into making seeds, but keep as much of the stalk and leaves as possible. The top growth should be removed in the fall when it yellows.

Where to buy: Lily bulbs are never dormant and can dry out if poorly kept — a reason to avoid lilies that have been sitting in stores for too long and have begun to sprout. Lilies are shipped in fall or early spring.

Two places to get started are Brent and Becky’s Bulbs of Gloucester, Va. (877-661-2852, www.brentand beckysbulbs.com) and the Lily Garden in Vancouver, Wash.

Keep your garden tools in top trimming form Martha Stewart Living

Q: A:

How should I clean and care for my pruning tools to keep them in top form?

Garden tools work better and last longer if they are cared for properly. Late winter or early spring is a good time to give them a going-over — especially if you didn’t do so before you put them away in the fall — so they’re ready to work when you are.

If your tools develop rust, use a solvent such as Liquid Wrench and a scouring pad to scrub it away. Spraying a little graphite lubricant will help prevent rust and keep parts moving smoothly. Wooden handles can be sanded and varnished or painted (use oil-based enamel paint) to keep them looking and feeling good.

Maintaining your pruners’ blades is essential. You’ll find sharpeners at hardware stores and garden centers; if you aren’t comfortable sharpening the blades yourself, take the tools to a professional. If they are very nicked or dented and cannot be improved, look into replacing just the blades; in some cases, however, it may be more economical to buy a new tool than to replace blades on an old one.

Once your pruners are clean and sharp, keep them that way: After every use, wipe the blades dry with a soft cloth.

After pruning conifers and woody shrubs, use solvent such as rubbing alcohol or turpentine on a rag to remove sap from the blades.

Never leave your tools in the garden; find a sheltered, dry spot to store them.

Can you suggest some natural methods for controlling mosquitoes?

The best way to reduce the number of these bugs is to prevent them from breeding. Female mosquitoes lay eggs — up to 200 at a time — in stagnant water. Within a couple of weeks, the eggs will transform into full-grown adults. To keep them at bay, check frequently for standing water, especially after a storm, and eliminate mosquito breeding grounds: overturned buckets, watering cans and anything else that holds water. Remove saucers from below potted plants, or

Be sure gutters and downspouts are clear, leaky air conditioners are repaired, and pools are clean and properly chlorinated.

If you have a pond or other still body of water on your property, stock it with mosquito fish (minnows that prey on mosquitoes), or treat it with a product that contains Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis, or BTI, which is a bacteria that is harmful to newly hatched insects. Available at home-supply stores, BTI is sold as pellets or disks. Plants and animals are unaffected by BTI, so you may use it in water gardens and birdbaths. Do not use BTI

South American verbena offers rugged beauty Tall South American verbenas partner well in this showy, hot summer bed with purple coneflowers and gloriosa daisies.

By Norman Winter McClatchy-Tribune News Service

The South American verbena was picture perfect at the recent Park Seed open house, part of the Greenwood South Carolina Festival of Flowers. I took the opportunity to shoot dozens of photos. The heat, simply put, was staggering, certainly not what you are looking for when you conduct plant trials, but in reality, it makes a statement on the durability of plants like this verbena.

The South American verbena, known botanically as Verbena bonariensis, is also called Brazilian verbena, purpletop, and my favorite, which is verbena on a stick. The latter may be most descriptive as this plant is tall — reaching 3 to 4 feet — and though it looks like it might topple in the face of wind and rain, it is indeed very sturdy.

The trait I like most about it is that it’s virtually indestructible, blooming until frost. While Park Seed used the traditional tall selection in a number of creative combinations that gardeners can learn from, we can also celebrate a new variety called Little One, introduced by Proven Winners, that is 18 to 24 inches tall.

As the name suggests, this verbena is native to Brazil and Argentina, and is perennial in zones 7-10 but easily grown as an annual in colder regions.

It does do a little reseeding, so in cooler regions you may get

a perennial-like performance, thanks to spring volunteers.

In the landscape, you’ll find the tall height and the fact that it is kind of naked at the bottom make it ideal for the back of the border or filling in vertical space. The purple-colored, long-blooming flowers are also treasured by both bees and butterflies.

You will find the best success by choosing a site in full sun.

The South American verbena performs best in fertile, welldrained soil. Copious amounts of rich organic matter are not needed unless you have severely tight clay. However, if you find yourself with this predicament, spread 3 to 4 inches of fine pine bark or compost and work into soil to a depth of 6 to 8 inches.

Your biggest challenge will be warding off the need for instant gratification. You’ll notice these are normally healthy green transplants when they are for sale at the garden center. This is the ideal way to plant

them — knowing full well that incredible blooms are just a few weeks away.

The choice of companions is almost limitless. The key to the showiest display will be to aggressively plant a mass or bold drift. It is the quintessential cottage garden plant and works extremely well in the modern perennial garden. Try planting behind purple coneflowers, rudbeckias and Shasta daisies.

One of the partnerships that caught my eye at the Park Seed open house featured the South American verbena with its stiff stems and a tall feathery or finetextured blue star Amsonia.

Maintenance is easy. Cut back frost-damaged foliage in the fall, adding a good layer of mulch. In the early spring, thin or remove unwanted seedlings or pot some up for other parts of the garden. The plant is packed with vigor, so you will not need a lot of fertilizer. A little pinching in late spring will help the plant develop a shrublike form.

It is nice to know that while we may want to hunker down in the air-conditioned living room, our landscape can dazzle out in the oppressive heat thanks to flowers like the South American verbena.

in marshes or other wetlands, as insects there play a key role in their ecosystems.

Regardless of how diligently you eliminate mosquitoes’ breeding grounds, the adult bugs can fly up to 20 miles from where they hatch, so they’ll likely still find their way into your yard. Luckily, there are several natural ways to repel them: Citronella oil, which is extracted from citronella grass and is commonly found in candles, may discourage mosquitoes.

However, the candles’ effectiveness depends on wind direction and how close people are to them. Concentrated garlic spray (available at garden centers) has proven adept at repelling mosquitoes over a

large area, such as a garden or backyard. Periodically apply the spray to plants, trees and lawns throughout the summer.

Also look for mosquito coils (sometimes known as smoke coils or cedar coils), which produce wood smoke, another repellent.

The “bug zappers” popular in the past were eventually deemed a waste of electricity, and their unpleasantly loud zaps killed beneficial bugs along with pesky ones. “Mosquito magnets,” which joined the market recently, appear to work more effectively, but their success lies in the production of CO2, which is considered detrimental to the environment.

Creamy dressing works with salads or as a dip

By Julie Rothman The Baltimore Sun

Joan Shaw, of Fayetteville, N.C., was trying to find a recipe for making cucumber salad dressing. She was particularly fond of one served at the Baldino’s restaurant chain. I was not able to locate the Baldino’s recipe, but I did receive a recipe for a creamy cucumber dressing from Jennifer Simms, of Santa Rosa, Calif.

Simms says she can’t recall where she originally got this recipe but that she has been making it for several years, and everyone seems to enjoy it. She says it works equally well as a salad dressing or dip, and that it’s wonderful with raw vegetables.

She also has used it as a dip for shrimp cocktail.

I made it using a seedless cucumber and fresh chives and dill from my garden, and served it over mixed greens and tomatoes for a simple, fresh-tasting summer salad.

RECIPE FINDER

Everyday Food

RECIPE REQUEST: Sandy Kuhn, of Timonium, Md., remembers when she was child she would go shopping with her mother to the department stores in downtown Baltimore. They would always have lunch in one of the store restaurants, and she loved the crab salad that she believes was served at the upstairs restaurant at Hutzler’s. Now that it’s crab season, she would appreciate having the recipe.

On your mark, get set, go: Make any of these superfast sweets in half an hour or less, and prepare to finish with a round of applause.

If you are looking for a recipe or can answer a request, write to Julie Rothman, Recipe Finder, The Baltimore Sun, 501 N. Calvert St., Baltimore MD 21278. Names and cities must accompany recipes for them to be published. Please list the ingredients in order of use, and note the number of servings.

Seeking a gelatin substitute

By Kathleen Purvis McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Q:

Is there a substitute for gelatin? My daughter is vegetarian, and I’ve had to give up some favorite recipes, such as gelatin-thickened pies. Can I use pectin to get the same affect?

There are a number of substitutes for gelatin. And with so many people following vegetarian or vegan eating styles,

A:

Makes 4 servings. ⁄3 C fresh lemon juice, strained 21⁄4 tsp unflavored powdered gelatin (from 1 packet) 1 ⁄2 C sugar Coarse salt 1 C cold heavy cream 1 C fresh blackberries (6 oz.)

they’re getting easy to find.

The possibilities include guar gum or xantham gum, although the most popular is probably agar, which is made from seaweed. Look for it in health-food stores and follow the directions on the box.

Pectin is a plant-based thickener used in making fruit or berry jams and jellies. It acts a little differently than gelatin, and the final result will have a different texture.

CHOCOLATE-ZUCCHINI CAKES WITH WALNUTS Makes 24. ⁄2 C (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted and cooled 1 C sugar 1 ⁄2 tsp coarse salt 1 lg egg 1 ⁄2 tsp pure vanilla extract 1 C finely grated zucchini (from 1 med zucchini) 3 TBS sour cream 1 C all-purpose flour 1 ⁄4 C unsweetened cocoa powder 1 ⁄2 C (3 oz) bittersweet chocolate, chopped, or chocolate chips Nonstick cooking spray 24 walnut halves Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

In a large bowl, stir together butter, sugar, salt and egg until combined. Add vanilla, zucchini and sour cream, and stir until incorporated. Sift flour and cocoa powder into bowl, and stir until combined. Stir in chocolate.

Spray two mini muffin pans with cooking spray. Fill each cup with 2 tablespoons batter and top with a walnut. Bake until a toothpick inserted in the center of a muffin comes out clean, about 15 to 17 minutes. Let muffins cool slightly in pans on wire racks before serving. (Store in an airtight container up to 3 days.)

Phyllo cups make a crunchy counterpoint to a whipped cream filling flavored with espresso powder and cardamom.

In a small bowl, combine lemon juice and 1/4 cup cold water.

Sprinkle gelatin on top and let sit until softened, about 2 minutes.

Fill a medium bowl with ice water. In a small saucepan, combine gelatin mixture, sugar and pinch of salt over medium heat and stir until gelatin and sugar dissolve, about 4 minutes. Pour gelatin mixture back into small bowl and set in ice bath. Stir until mixture reaches room temperature, about 1 minute.

In a large bowl, whisk cream until soft peaks form. Pour cooled gelatin mixture into whipped cream and whisk until soft peaks return. Divide evenly among four 8-ounce dishes or cups, and place in freezer until mousse springs back lightly when pressed, about 10 minutes. Serve topped with blackberries.

Nutrition information per serving: 329 calories; 22.2 grams fat (13.7 grams saturated fat); 3.3 grams protein; 31.9 grams carbohydrates; 2 grams fiber.

PHYLLO CUPS WITH CAPPUCCINO CREAM Makes 6 servings.

The creamy filling can be made in advance and refrigerated until ready to serve. Try adding a tablespoon of liqueur, like Kahlua or Baileys, before whipping the cream.

3 sheets frozen phyllo dough, thawed 2 TBS unsalted butter, melted 2 TBS sugar

1 TBS instant espresso powder 1 C cold heavy cream 2 TBS sweetened condensed milk

⁄4 tsp ground cardamom or cinnamon Coarse salt 1 ⁄2 tsp unsweetened cocoa powder

1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Lay 1 sheet phyllo on a work surface (cover remaining sheets with a lightly damp towel). Brush phyllo with one-third of the butter, and sprinkle with one-third of the sugar. Repeat layering twice more with remaining phyllo, butter and sugar. Cut stacked phyllo into 6 equal pieces, and gently press each square into a cup of a standard muffin pan, crimping edges as needed so phyllo sits flat in bottom of cup.

Bake until phyllo is golden brown, about 20 minutes, rotating pan halfway through. Let cool completely in pan on a wire rack.

Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, combine espresso powder with a small amount of cream and stir until powder dissolves. Stir in remaining cream, condensed milk, cardamom and pinch of salt. Whisk until firm, but not dry, peaks form. Refrigerate until ready to serve (up to 2 days). Fill phyllo cups with cappuccino cream and sprinkle with cocoa powder. Serve immediately.

Nutrition information per serving: 237 calories; 19.6 grams fat (12 grams saturated fat); 2.1 grams protein; 14.1 grams carbohydrates; 0.3 grams fiber.

The street address or other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 22025 EAST HIGHWAY 20 BEND, OR 97701 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the above street address or other common designation. Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell the said real property to satisfy the obligations secured by said trust deed and a notice of default has been recorded pursuant to Oregon Revised Statutes 86.735(3); the default for which the foreclosure is made is grantor's failure to pay when due, the following sums: Amount due as of June 18, 2010 Unpaid Principal $201,118.30 Accrued Late Charges $0.00 Beneficiary Advances: $0.00 Suspense Credit: $0.00 TOTAL: $201,118.30 By reason of said default, the beneficiary has declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by said trust deed immediately due and payable, said sums being the following: FAILURE TO PAY THE PRINCIPAL BALANCE WHICH BECAME DUE ON 2/18/2009, DUE TO THE CONDITIONS ON THE NOTE REFERENCED AS PARAGRAPH 7 (A), TOGETHER WITH ACCRUED AND ACCRUING INTEREST, CHARGES, FEES AND COSTS AS SET FORTH. WHEREFORE, notice hereby is given that the undersigned trustee, will on October 18, 2010, at the hour of 11:00 AM, in accord with the standard of time established by ORS 187.110, at FRONT ENTRANCE TO THE DESCHUTES COUNTY COURTHOUSE, 1164 NW BOND STREET, BEND, County of DESCHUTES, State of OREGON, sell at public auction to the highest bidder for cash, the interest in the said described property which the grantor had, or had the power to convey, at the time of the execution by him of the said trust deed, together with any interest which the grantor or his successors in interest acquired after the execution of said trust deed, to satisfy the foregoing obligations thereby secured and the costs and expenses of sale, including a reasonable charge by the trustee. Notice is further given that any person named in ORS 86.753 has the right, at any time prior to five days before the date last set for the sale, to have this foreclosure proceeding dismissed and the trust deed reinstated by payment to the beneficiary of the entire amount then due (other than such portion of the principal as would not then be due had no default occurred) and by curing any other default complained of herein that is capable of being cured by tendering the performance required under the obligation or trust deed, and in addition to paying said sums or tendering the performance necessary to cure the default, by paying all costs and expenses actually incurred in enforcing the obligation and trust deed, together with trustee's and attorney's fees not exceeding the amounts provided by said ORS 86.753. Notwithstanding the use of the term "reinstatement" or "reinstated", this obligation is fully mature and the entire principal balance is due and payable, together with interest, costs, fees and advances as set forth above. In construing this notice, the masculine gender includes the feminine and the neuter, the singular includes the plural, the word "grantor" includes any successor in interest to the grantor as well as any other person owing an obligation, the performance of which is secured by said trust deed, and the words "trustee" and "beneficiary" include their respective successors in interest, if any. Anyone having any objection to the sale on any grounds whatsoever will be afforded an opportunity to be heard as to those objections if they bring a lawsuit to restrain the same.
