Challengers using TARP votes to tar incumbents
BREWHAHA Oregon beverage artisans object to OLCC’s grounding homemade beer and wine
New York Times and McClatchy-Tribune news services The vote in 2008 to bail out Wall Street was framed as the only way to avert an economic meltdown and relieve financial institutions of their most toxic holdings. For many in Congress, it turns out that the vote itself was poisonous. Nearly two years after Congress approved the Troubled Asset Relief Program, the Bush administration’s $700 billion program to rescue the banking system at a moment when it appeared close to collapse, lawmakers from both parties who backed it remain haunted by the vote. Republicans for months predicted that a public backlash against the Democrats’ big health care law would be the defining issue in this year’s congressional campaigns. But the bipartisan TARP vote has become a more resonant issue in a year when anti-incumbent, anti-Washington sentiment is running strong. See TARP / A8
Area inches toward one source for all health care Clinic in Redmond seeks to join St. Charles; ‘one-stop shopping’ is the hospital group’s goal, but critics debate the consequences By Betsy Q. Cliff The Bulletin
In one of the first concrete steps toward creating a new health system in Central Oregon, St. Charles is negotiating with several groups of physicians about employing them and acquiring their practices. One group, Cascade Medical Clinic in Redmond — among the largest primary care practices in the area — said the doctors there hope to be employees of St. Charles Health System in the next few months. If the deal goes through, it would be the first such acquisition by St. Charles. A couple of years ago, the hospital ignited a firestorm in the medical community by negotiating with a specialty group of physicians in Bend for a similar arrangement, though that deal fell apart. Employing a group of primary care physicians would move the hospital closer to its goal of creating an integrated health system, one in which all health care a patient needs — from doctors’ visits to tests to hospital stays — can be provided. That system would use the same medical records, adhere to the same standards of patient care and, in some cases, use the same administration and billing personnel. Bend Memorial Clinic, with about 100 providers, lab services and imaging equipment, is currently the closest thing in the region to an integrated health system. Typically, a fully integrated system would include inpatient hospital services, which BMC does not. See Health care / A6

Motherland changed as spies ‘slept’
By Benedict Carey and John Markoff New York Times News Service
By Clifford J. Levy New York Times News Service
MOSCOW — Some complained they could not scrape up a single grapefruit or tangerine in the markets. Others pined for contact with friends in the West, which was off-limits forever (the KGB made absolutely certain of that). One recalled his dismay upon returning in the 1960s and visiting a Moscow factory: “What a dreadful mess.” Only a few years later, he dropped dead, as if he were never able to readapt to Soviet life. Like those before them, the sleeper spies who were deported to Russia last week in one of the biggest espionage exchanges in decades will probably miss the United States, picket fences and all. But what perhaps most distinguishes this affair from its Cold War precursors is what awaits these Russians in their motherland. Russia, in more ways than it may want to admit, has developed a desire for the suburban comforts of America. See Spies / A7

Old law, new interpretation • From Oregon’s Liquor Control Act: “No person shall brew, ferment, distill, blend or rectify any alcoholic liquor unless licensed so to do by the Oregon Liquor Control Commission. However, the Liquor Control Act does not apply to the making or keeping of naturally fermented wines and fruit juices or beer in the home, for home consumption and not for sale.

he Oregon Liquor Control Commission’s new interpretation of an old law has put homemade beer and wine in the spotlight, effectively banning judged competitions, home-brewing club tasting nights, and even the taking of a six-pack of homebrewed beer to a neighbor’s barbecue. At issue is ORS 471.403, a statute that forbids the production of alcoholic beverages by anyone not licensed by the OLCC.

The wine competition has been a fixture at the fair for 31 years, the beer contest for 22 years. Rachel McIntosh, director of open class exhibits for the Deschutes County Fair, said that unless she’s explicitly notified by the OLCC that beer and wine contests are out, the county fair will be accepting entries for the fair later this month. “Somebody’s opened a can of worms,” McIntosh said. “We’ve done this for a long time, and it’s probably been a law forever, but somebody opened the can and stirred the pot.” See Home brew / A5

LOS ANGELES — The boy, a dark-haired 6-year-old, is playing with a new companion. The two hit it off quickly — unusual for the 6-year-old, who has autism — and the boy is imitating his playmate’s every move — now nodding his head, now raising his arms. “Like Simon Says,” says the autistic boy’s mother, seated next to him on the floor. Yet soon he begins to withdraw; in a video of the session, he covers his ears and slumps against the wall. But the companion, a 3-foot-tall robot being tested at the University of Southern California, maintains eye contact and performs another move, raising one arm up high. Up goes the boy’s arm — and now he is smiling at the machine. In a handful of laboratories around the world, computer scientists are developing robots like this one: highly programmed machines that can engage people and teach them simple skills, including household tasks, vocabulary or, as in the case of the boy, playing, elementary imitation and taking turns.

BP removes well cap, trying for a tighter fit Permanent fix still slated for mid-August Bulletin wire reports NEW ORLEANS — Robotic submarines working a mile under water removed a leaking cap from the gushing Gulf oil well Saturday, starting a painful trade-off: Millions more gallons of crude will flow freely into the sea for at least two days until a new seal can be mounted to capture all of it. There’s no guarantee for such a delicate operation almost a mile below the water’s surface, officials said, and a solution for plugging the well for good remains slated for mid-August. “It’s not just going to be, you put
the cap on, it’s done. It’s not like putting a cap on a tube of toothpaste,” Coast Guard spokesman Capt. James McPherson said. Robotic submarines removed the cap that had been placed on top of the leak in early June to collect the oil and send it to surface ships for collection or burning. BP plans to have the new, tighter cap in place as early as Monday. If tests show it can withstand the pressure of the oil and is working, the Gulf region could get its most significant piece of good news since the April 20 explosion on the BP-leased Deepwater Hori-
zon rig, which killed 11 workers. Sealing the cap would be only a temporary solution to the catastrophe that the federal government estimates has poured between 87 million and 172 million gallons of oil into the Gulf of Mexico as of Saturday. With the cap removed Saturday at 12:37 p.m., oil flowed freely into the water, collected only by the Q4000 surface vessel, with a capacity of about 378,000 gallons. That vessel should be joined today by the Helix Producer, which has more than double the Q4000’s capacity. But the lag could be long enough for as much as 5 million gallons to gush into already fouled waters.
Value of oil-skimming flotilla is uncertain NEW ORLEANS — The value of one highly touted facet of the Gulf oil spill cleanup — the small navy of vessels skimming oil from the surface — has proven all but impossible to measure, which could make it difficult to figure out how much damage BP is liable for when the gusher is finally stopped. BP and the government admit they have no idea how much oil has been collected by hundreds of boats that range from retrofitted fishing vessels to state-of-the-art craft designed specifically for the task. The harshest critics say the amount of oil skimmed is as low as 2.9 million gallons of the 87 million to 171 million gallons of crude that have gushed into the Gulf since April 20, but BP and independent scientists alike say there’s no real way of knowing. BP tracks the amount of oil-tainted water skimmers collect — nearly 29 million gallons so far — but not the amount of oil found in that mixture. Part of the problem, BP says, is the variety of vessels and skimming equipment being used. Other means of collecting oil are easier to measure or estimate. BP has a handle on how much is funneling from the well cap into tankers — some 28.7 million gallons as of Friday. It also releases daily updates on how much oil has been burned from the surface of the water, a calculation it derives from the thickness of the crude, the size of the oil patch and how long it takes to burn. Of course, even the total spilled is murky. There is a daily federal estimate that hit as many as 171 millions gallons Friday. Put simply, that’s enough oil to fill up nearly 113 blimps the size of Goodyear’s Spirit of America. — The Associated Press

President vows clearer path to aid for veterans with PTSD
Anglicans closer to schism after vote on women New York Times News Service
By Julie Pace The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — The government is taking what President Barack Obama calls “a long-overdue step” to aid veterans with post-traumatic stress disorder, making it easier for them receive federal benefits. The changes that Veteran Affairs Secretary Eric Shinseki will announce Monday fulfill “a solemn responsibility to provide our veterans and wounded warriors with the care and benefits they’ve earned when they come home,” Obama said in his weekly radio and online address Saturday. The new rules will apply not only to veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars, but also those who served in previous conflicts. No longer will veterans have to prove what caused their illness. Instead, they would have to show that the conditions surrounding the time and place of their service could have contributed to their illness. “I don’t think our troops on the battlefield should have to take notes to keep for a claims application,” Obama said. “And I’ve met enough veterans to know that you don’t have to engage in a firefight to endure the trauma of war.”

A student from Missouri State University smokes synthetic marijuana, or K2, at Petra Cafe and Hookah Bar in St. Louis. With a ban in early July signed into state law prohibiting possession of K2, investigators blame the herb in at least one suicide and has sent users to emergency rooms with elevated heart rates, paranoia, vomiting and hallucinations.
Faux marijuana as incense spurs bans By Malcolm Gay New York Times News Service
ST. LOUIS — Seated at a hookah lounge, Albert Kuo trained his lighter above a marbleized glass pipe stuffed with synthetic marijuana. Inhaling deeply, Kuo, an art student at an area college, singed the pipe’s leafy contents, emitting a musky cloud of smoke into the afternoon light. Kuo, 25, had gathered here with a small cohort of friends for what could be the last time they legally get high in Missouri on a substance known popularly as K2, a blend of herbs treated with synthetic marijuana. On Tuesday, Gov. Jay Nixon signed a bill prohibiting possession of K2. Missouri is the
nation’s eighth state this year to ban the substance, which has sent users to emergency rooms across the country complaining of everything from elevated heart rates and paranoia to vomiting and hallucinations. Investigators blame the drug in at least one death, and this month, Arkansas Gov. Mike Beebe signed an emergency order banning the substance. Similar prohibitions are pending or awaiting governors’ signatures in at least six other states, including Illinois, Louisiana, Michigan, New Jersey, New York and Ohio, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. Often marketed as incense,
K2 is sold openly in gas stations, head shops and, of course, online. It can sell for as much as $40 per gram. Many users say they are undaunted by reports of negative reactions to the drug. K2 does not show up on drug tests, and users say that while they would like to know what is in it, they would take their chances if it means a clean urine test. The Drug Enforcement Administration is reviewing “cannabinoids,” placing them under the Controlled Substances Act. Currently, however, only one such substance is controlled under the act, though the agency has listed four others as “chemicals of concern.”
LONDON — The Church of England moved another step closer to an unbridgeable schism between traditionalists and reformers Saturday when its General Synod, or parliament, rejected a bid by the archbishop of Canterbury to strike a compromise over the ordination of female bishops aimed at preserving the increasingly fragile unity of the worldwide Anglican Communion. The rejection of proposals aimed at accommodating those who oppose female bishops appeared to strike a serious blow to Most Rev. Rowan Williams, whose position as archbishop of Canterbury makes him the leader of the 80 million-member Communion. Although he has a long-established reputation as a liberal on theological issues, the archbishop, 60, has spent much of his seven years as the Anglican leader seeking to fashion compromises with traditionalists over the role of women and gays as priests and bishops. The narrow rejection of his compromise proposals at the Synod meeting in the northern English city of York appeared to raise the threat of a new wave of defections by traditionalists among the church’s laity and clergy to the Roman Catholic Church. An earlier wave of defections followed the Church of England’s decision to accept openly gay priests, and moves by the Episcopal Church in the U.S. to ordain gay bishops.
Who suffers A study last year by the RAND Corp. think tank estimated that nearly 20 percent of returning veterans, or 300,000, have symptoms of PTSD or major depression. Veterans advocates and some lawmakers have argued it sometimes could be impossible for veterans to find records of a firefight or bomb blast. They also have contended that the old rules ignored other causes of PTSD, such as fearing a traumatic event even if it doesn’t occur. That could discriminate against female troops prohibited from serving on front lines and against other service members who don’t experience combat directly. “This is a long overdue step,” Obama said. “It’s a step that proves America will always be here for our veterans, just as they’ve been there for us. We won’t let them down. We take care of our own.” A senior official at the Department of Veterans Affairs said the agency doesn’t expect the number of veterans receiving benefits for PTSD to rise dramatically, as most veterans with legitimate applications for benefits do eventually get claims. The goal is simply to make the claims process less cumbersome and timeconsuming, said the official, who would speak only on condition of anonymity ahead of the VA’s announcement. Meanwhile, in the weekly Republican address Saturday, Rep. Phil Gingrey of Georgia decried the past year’s stimulus bill, claiming it expanded federal spending while not helping the economy.

N B ‘Grim Sleeper’ suspect had long arrest record
Struggling states seek more aid from D.C. Governors hamstrung by the sluggish economic rebound in their states and bound to balance their own budgets are pressing anew for Washington to step up with more help, even if it means adding to the nation’s red ink. Republicans and Democrats alike wrestled with how to capitalize on a fledgling rebound as they talked dollars and sense at their summer meeting just days into a new state budget year and as the economy shapes dozens of gubernatorial races across the country. Governors headed to Boston for the weekend ready to share ideas on a range of issues, from health care to alternative energy to education. But the economy is dominating the discussions. Just days before the new budget year began in states July 1, Congress failed to complete legislation that would have extended, through June 2011, important parts of the federal stimulus program. — From wire reports
Illegal workers left jobless in ‘silent raids’ By Julia Preston New York Times News Service
BREWSTER, Wash. — The Obama administration has replaced immigration raids at factories and farms with a quieter enforcement strategy: sending federal agents to scour companies’ records for illegal immigrant workers. While the sweeps of the past commonly led to the deportation of such workers, the “silent raids,� as employers call the audits, usually result in the workers being fired, but in many cases they are not deported. Over the past year, Immigration and Customs Enforcement has conducted audits of employee files at more than 2,900 companies. The agency has levied a record $3 million in civil fines so far this year on businesses that hired unauthorized immigrants, according to official figures. Thousands of those workers have been fired, immigrant groups estimate. Employers say the audits reach more companies than the work site roundups of the Bush administration. The audits force businesses to fire every suspected illegal immigrant on the payroll — not just those who happened to be on duty at the time of a raid — and make it much harder to hire other unauthorized workers as replacements. Auditing is “a far more effective enforcement tool,� said Mike Gempler, executive director of the Washington Growers League, which includes many worried fruit growers in this state. Immigration inspectors who pored over the records of one of those growers, Gebbers Farms, found evidence that more than 500 of its workers, mostly immigrants from Mexico, were in the country illegally. In December, Gebbers Farms, based in this Washington orchard town, fired the workers. “Instead of hundreds of agents going after one company, now one agent can go after hundreds of companies,� said Mark Reed, president of Border Management Strategies, a consulting firm in Tucson, Ariz., that advises companies on immigration law. “And there is no drama, no trauma, no families being torn apart.� President Barack Obama, in his recent immigration speech, explained a two-step policy. He promised tough enforcement against illegal immigration, in workplaces and at the border, saying it would prepare the way for a legislative overhaul
Arizona law unlikely to survive federal suit Arizona’s law giving local police immigration enforcement powers is likely to be struck down, most legal experts predict, now that the Obama administration has gone to court asserting it conflicts with federal law. However, they caution that one large uncertainty is that the current Supreme Court has not ruled directly on such a statefederal clash over immigration. Traditionally, the federal government’s view carries extra weight in disputes over immigration. “It’s one thing for MALDEF (Mexican American Legal defense and Educational Fund) or the ACLU to say this interferes with federal policy. It is quite a different thing when the federal government goes to court and says it,� said Jack Chin, a University of Arizona law professor. “The clear rule has been that states do not have the power to regulate immigration.� Arizona’s leaders have said their law does not conflict with federal immigration policy. A seventh challenge to Arizona’s law, filed Friday in federal court, says training materials designed to teach police officers how to enforce the law give “vague and illdefined factors� as reasons to question someone’s legal status. — From wire reports to give legal status to millions of illegal immigrants already in the country. White House officials say the enforcement is under way, but they acknowledge the overhaul is unlikely to happen this year. In another shift, the immigration agency has moved away from bringing criminal charges against immigrant workers who lack legal status but have otherwise clean records.
Laborers called vital Employers say the Obama administration is leaving them short of labor for some low-wage work, conducting silent raids but offering no new legal immigrant laborers in occupations like farm work that Americans continue to shun despite the long recession. Federal labor officials estimate that more than 60 percent of farm workers in the United States are illegal immigrants. John Morton, the head of ICE, said the goal of the audits is to create “a culture of compliance� among employers, so that verifying new hires would be as routine as paying taxes. ICE leaves it up to employers to fire workers whose documents cannot be validated. But an employer who fails to do so risks prosecution. The firings at Gebbers Farms shocked this village of orchard laborers (population 2,100) by the Columbia River among sere brown foothills in eastern Washington. Six months after the firings, the silence still prevails, with both the company and the illegal immigrants reluctant to discuss them. Farm worker advocates said the family-owned company, one of the biggest apple growers in the country, did not fit Morton’s de-
Hanford analyst ups nuclear waste tally New York Times News Service The amount of plutonium buried at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation in Washington state is nearly three times what the federal government previously reported, a new analysis indicates, suggesting that a cleanup to protect future generations will be far more challenging than expected. Plutonium waste is much more prevalent around nuclear weapons sites nationwide than the Energy Department’s official accounting indicates, said Robert Alvarez, a former department official who in recent months reanalyzed studies conducted by the department
in the last 15 years for Hanford; the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory; the Savannah River Site, near Aiken, S.C.; and elsewhere. But the problem is most severe at Hanford, a 560-square-mile tract in south-central Washington that was taken over by the federal government. The plutonium does not pose a major radiation hazard now, largely because it is under “institutional controls� like guards, weapons and gates. But government scientists say that even in minute particles, plutonium can cause cancer, and because it takes 24,000 years to lose half its radioactivity, it is certain to last longer than the controls.
scription of an exploiter. “The general reputation for Gebbers Farms was that they were doing right by their employees,� said Matt Adams, legal director of the Northwest Immigrant Rights Project. The Gebbers packing house is the center of this company town, amid more than 5,000 acres of well-tended orchards, where the lingua franca is Spanish. Officials said public school enrollment is more than 90 percent Hispanic. Throughout last year, ICE auditors examined forms known as I-9s, which all new hires in the country must fill out. ICE then advised Gebbers Farms of Social Security and immigration numbers that did not check out with federal databases. Just before Christmas, managers summoned the workers in groups. In often emotional exchanges, managers immediately fired those without valid documents. “No comment,� said Jay Johnson, a lawyer for Gebbers Farms, expressing the company’s only statement. Many workers lived in houses they rented from the company; they were given three months to move out. In Brewster, truck payments stopped, televisions were returned, mobile homes were sold, mortgages defaulted. The word is out among growers in the region to avoid hiring immigrants from the company because ICE knows they are unauthorized. There was no wave of deportations, and few families left on their own for Mexico. “They are saying, ‘What’s going to happen to their kids?’ � said Mario Camacho, an administrator in the Brewster school district. “To those kids, this is their country.�
“Offers are not near where they were in 2006, but there is still a war for talent. Everyone thought the ice age had returned, but the thaw has come and we’re in catch-up mode.� — Richard Stein, president of Global Sage, an executive search firm Though the figures are small in comparison to overall Wall Street employment, executives, economists and headhunters say they expect the growth to pick up steam in the coming months. The increase in hiring and cautious optimism stand in sharp contrast to the mood among workers in other fields, where jobs have been slow to return or are disappearing altogether. Since June 2008 the number of jobs has shrunk by nearly 14 percent in manufacturing and by 22 percent in construction, but only by 8.5 percent in the financial industry nationwide. As hiring has picked up on Wall Street, salary packages recalling the boom years are reappearing at the most senior levels. Richard Stein, of Global Sage, an executive search firm, said corporate clients had offered compensation packages worth more than $1 million annually to 12 candidates in recent weeks, adding that in a few cases bonuses have been guaranteed for several years. “The offers are not near where they were in 2006, but there is still a war for talent,� he said. “Everyone thought the ice age had returned, but the thaw has come and we’re in catch-up mode.�

LOS ANGELES — The 57-yearold man charged with 10 murders in the Los Angeles “Grim Sleeper� case was arrested at least 15 times over four decades but was never sent to state prison despite the recommendation of probation officers, court and jail records show. Lonnie Franklin Jr. was arrested for burglary, car theft, firearms possession and assaults. But his crimes never were considered serious enough to send him to state prison or to warrant his entry in the state’s DNA database, authorities said. Franklin was arrested Wednesday on 10 counts of murder and other charges in the deaths of young black women that started in the 1980s, then suddenly stopped, only to resume again 14 years later — sparking the nickname Grim Sleeper.

Guest workers from Mexico ride a school bus to obtain their Social Security numbers to begin working at Gebbers Farms in Brewster, Wash., last month. The Obama administration has started auditing the hiring records of thousands of companies, requiring the companies to fire suspected illegal immigrants on their payrolls.
While much of the country remains fixated on the bleak employment picture, hiring is beginning to pick up in the place that led the economy into recession — Wall Street. The shift underscores the remarkable recovery of the biggest banks and brokerage firms since Washington rescued them in the fall of 2008, and follows the huge rebound in profits for members of the New York Stock Exchange, which totaled $61.4 billion in 2009, the most ever. Since employment bottomed out in February, New York securities firms have added nearly 2,000 jobs, a trend that is also playing out nationwide at financial companies, commodity contract traders and investment firms.

KABUL, Afghanistan — Militants killed five American service members on Saturday in five separate attacks as casualties continued to mount in what has become, by far, the deadliest year since the 2001 invasion. Another American soldier died Saturday from what military officials described as an “accidental explosion.� Of those who were attacked, three of the Americans were killed in eastern Afghanistan and two of them in southern Afghanistan, the regions where Taliban influence is strongest. Two died in roadside bomb explosions, two died in small-arms attacks and one died in an attack involving different types of weapons. “All were separate incidents, and none of them had more than one casualty,� said a spokesman for the American-led military command in Kabul, Lt. Col. Todd Vician. At least 22 American service members have died so far in July, and 224 since the beginning of the year, according to iCasualties.org, a website that tracks military casualties. The overwhelming majority of troop deaths in Afghanistan typically occur between May and October, and the pace of deaths so far this year is more than double the number in 2009, amid stepped-up military operations led by tens of thousands of new “surge� troops.

Supporters of the Dutch team greet a South African fan holding a poster of Nelson Mandela before the June 28 match between the Netherlands and Slovakia at the stadium in Durban, South Africa. Mandela, the former president, has long preached the healing power of sports in post-apartheid South Africa.

Historical links between South Africa’s Premier League South Africa and the Netherlands took the name of Ajax and began extend to 1652, when the Dutch operating in a joint venture with East India Company established the renowned and powerful Am-
sterdam club. An important symbolic gesture against apartheid occurred in 1987, when Ruud Gullit, the Dutch star, was named European player of the year and dedicated his award to Mandela, who was still imprisoned at the time. Such a gesture by Gullit further endeared the Dutch to many black South Africans, said Radebe, the retired captain. “Players like him made a difference for people of color, in fighting racism, in making it to the highest level of the game.”
Dutch influence While the Dutch Reformed Church of South Africa supported apartheid, anti-apartheid activism sprung up in the Netherlands diplomatically and among nongovernmental organizations, historians said. This is precisely why he was rooting for the Netherlands today, said Themba Ngcobo, 50, a black business owner from Johannesburg. “I will cheer the Dutch because they contributed a lot to the democratizing and developing of this country,” Ngcobo said. The Dutch influence in South Africa is particularly resonant around Cape Town. Cape Dutch architecture features rounded gables, thatched roofs and whitewashed walls. Choral singing in so-called Malay choirs features 18th- and 19th-century Dutch songs sung by mixed-race, or colored, people, many of whom are descendants of slaves brought to South Africa centuries ago by the Dutch from Indonesia, India and Ceylon (now Sri Lanka). Afrikaans, one of 11 official languages in South Africa, is an offshoot of Dutch that is believed to have emerged in colonial times as a way for masters and slaves to communicate. Another factor may blunt any enmity that black South Africans might have for the Dutch team, Alegi said. “Many of the Dutch players are of Caribbean or African diaspora connection,” he said. “People look at the Dutch team and they seem to be diverse racially and ethnically. It might be hard to associate that with a white supremacist past.”
World Cup wrap-up: Was it a success for South Africa? JOHANNESBURG — They would never finish the stadiums on time. Transportation would be a fiasco. Tourists who weren’t shot, stabbed or killed in car smashes would get food poisoning. And if that didn’t ruin the soccer World Cup, the bad South African service would. It wasn’t just the British tabloids that predicted South Africa could never pull off the World Cup tournament successfully. There were plenty of skeptics in South Africa. But the tournament that ends with the Netherlands-Spain final today buries the stereotype of South Africa as a violent place where nothing really works, incapable of staging a global showcase. Yes, there were transport mix-ups and armed robberies, some of them vicious. And the cost of staging the event blew out from an estimated $329 million to somewhere between $4 billion and $5.5 billion. But the faults weren’t enough to overshadow the event’s vibrancy and enthusiasm, and its ebul-
lient African style. Mega-events like the World Cup and Olympics are often defined by the people who host them. If the first World Cup on African soil wasn’t perfect, at least it was real. “We have had an image makeover for South Africa and the continent of Africa. We have succeeded in rebranding and repositioning this country,” said local organizing committee boss Danny Jordaan.
AN IMAGE PROBLEM Since Nelson Mandela’s Rainbow Nation dream began to fade with the rise of corruption and persistent inequality, South Africa has become an insecure, navel-gazing nation. The country fretted that violence would affirm South Africa’s image as a killing field. Would President Jacob Zuma, with sex scandals and children born out of wedlock, embarrass the country? Would logistical problems and transport chaos reaffirm stereotypes of Africa as the hopeless continent?
From the outset, when South Africa was chosen in 2004 to host the event, the government has burdened the World Cup with heavy expectations. “We want to ensure that one day, historians will reflect upon the 2010 World Cup as a moment when Africa stood tall and resolutely and turned the tide of centuries of poverty and conflict,” then South Africa president, Thabo Mbeki, said at the time. But South Africa surprised even itself with the tournament’s success. Zuma played the jovial host and people started blowing vuvuzela horns from Johannesburg to Amsterdam. “We won most of all because we could finally say ‘we,’ ” wrote analyst and author Mark Gevisser. “… South Africans were waving flags, and supporting their team out of a sense of joy and belonging, rather than the deficit-driven pride that has fueled both Afrikaner and African nationalism for so long.” — Robyn Dixon, Los Angeles Times

N. Korea signals it’s ready for new talks SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea expressed willingness Saturday to return to international nuclear disarmament talks, a sign it is satisfied with the U.N. Security Council’s decision to avoid directly blaming it for the sinking of a South Korean warship. South Korea responded to the announcement with caution, saying it wanted proof. In a presidential statement Friday, the Security Council expressed “deep concern” about the March sinking of the 1,200-ton Cheonan, and findings by a South Korean-led international investigation that North Korea had torpedoed the ship. But it refrained from directly condemning North Korea — something the North had warned could trigger a military response. — The Associated Press civilians during that period.

Robots Continued from A1 So far, the teaching has been very basic, delivered mostly in experimental settings, and the robots are still works in progress, a hackers’ gallery of moving parts that, like mechanical savants, each do some things well at the expense of others. Yet the most advanced models are fully autonomous, guided by artificial intelligence software such as motion tracking and speech recognition, which can make them just engaging enough to rival humans at some teaching tasks. Researchers say the pace of innovation is such that these machines should begin to learn as they teach, becoming the sort of infinitely patient, highly informed instructors that would be effective in subjects like foreign language or in repetitive therapies used to treat developmental problems like autism.
Lessons from RUBI “Kenka,” says a childlike voice. “Ken-ka.” Standing on a polka-dot carpet at a preschool on the campus of the University of California, San Diego, a robot named RUBI is teaching Finnish to a 3-year-old boy. RUBI looks like a desktop computer come to life. RUBI wears a bandanna around its neck and a fixed happy-face smile below a pair of large, plastic eyes. It picks up a white sneaker and says “kenka,” the Finnish word for shoe, before returning it to the floor. “Feel it; I’m a kenka.” In a video of this exchange, the boy picks up the sneaker, says “kenka, kenka” — and holds up the shoe for the robot to see. In the San Diego classroom where RUBI has taught Finnish, researchers are finding that the robot enables preschool children to score significantly better on tests, compared with less interactive learning, as from tapes. Researchers in social robotics — a branch of computer science devoted to enhancing communication between humans and machines — at Honda Labs in
Home brew Continued from A1 Representatives of the OLCC did not return calls for comment. On the agency’s official blog, a July 2 posting states that the OLCC’s current interpretation of the law came through a recent analysis of the statute by the Oregon Department of Justice. “The Department of Justice’s guidance certainly requires us to look at the competitions in a different way than we have before,” the posting read. “It’s completely understandable that home beer and wine makers would be disappointed.” Brett Thomas, past president of the Central Oregon Homebrewers Organization, or COHO, said clubs and competitions have played a big part in helping him hone his skills in the 13 years since he began home-brewing. Now a professional brewer for Silver Moon in Bend, Thomas said COHO has about 75 registered members. He said there may be as many as 900 home-brewers in Central Oregon. Thomas said he was surprised to learn that the law appears to forbid what he and others have been doing for years. “As a home-brewer — participating at club meetings, club campouts, competitions — really, the last thing on your mind is, ‘Hmm, is this OK with the OLCC?’” he said. “Most of us view the OLCC as a state agency to enforce alcohol laws related to businesses, not what home-brewers are making in their garages and stovetops.” Saturday morning, Thomas and other COHO members gathered at the Bend home of Jeremy Holbrook for a group brewing project. As club members inventoried ingredients for a Belgianstyle saison and repaired the valves on a keg filled with dark wheat beer waiting on ice, Holbrook said he’s not too concerned the OLCC will crack down on the club’s activities. Still, he said, it seems “ridiculous” that the law should distinguish between his drinking a beer brewed down the street at his friend’s home and one brewed in his own backyard. “The way the law reads, it’s ‘in the home,’ but it doesn’t say whose home,” Thomas said. “I guess you could brew in a church, since that’s the house of God.” Tom Gilles, owner of The Brew Shop in Bend, said enforcement of the law could present a

Mountain View, Calif., have found a similar result with their robot, a 3-foot character called Asimo, which looks like a miniature astronaut. In one 20-minute session the machine taught grade-school students how to set a table — improving their accuracy by about 25 percent, a recent study found. At the University of Southern California, researchers have had their robot, Bandit, interact with children with autism. In a pilot study, four children with the diagnosis spent about 30 minutes with this robot when it was programmed to be socially engaging and another half-hour when it behaved randomly, more like a toy. The results are still preliminary, said David Feil-Seifer, who ran the study, but suggest that the children spoke more often and spent more time in direct interaction when the robot was responsive, compared with when it acted randomly.
Making the connection In a lab at the University of Washington, Morphy, a pint-sized robot, catches the eye of an infant girl and turns to look at a toy. No luck; the girl does not follow its gaze, as she would a human’s. In a video the researchers made of the experiment, the girl next sees the robot “waving” to an adult. Now she’s interested; the sight of the machine interacting registers it as a social being in the young brain. She begins to track what the robot is looking at, to the right, the left, down. The machine has elicited what scientists call gaze-following, an essential first step of social exchange. “Before they have language, infants pay attention to what
problem for him and for COHO, which customarily gathers at his shop on Division Street for its monthly meetings. Because Gilles has a liquor license that allows him to serve a few beers on tap, home-brew tastings and bottle exchanges at club meetings could jeopardize his license. Gilles said the club has held its annual home-brewing contest every spring but that future contests could be put on hold. Brewers and clubs are reluctant to ask the OLCC for clarification, he said, out of concern that doing so could draw attention to their no-longer-legal activities. “I’m not sure how that’s going to affect us next year,” Gilles said. “It’s almost one of those things where you’re afraid to ask questions.” A handful of home-brewers from around the state have formed the Oregon Homebrewers Alliance to lobby the OLCC and legislators to change the law. Denny Conn, of Noti, one of the founding members, said the growing popularity of homebrewing has led to the discovery and repeal of antiquated liquor laws in other states in recent years. Conn said legislators and OLCC representatives he’s talked to seem largely supportive of changing the law. “At this point, writing angry letters to the OLCC might be understandable, but it’s probably not helpful,” he said. State Rep. Judy Stiegler, DBend, and her Republican challenger, Jason Conger, both said they would support rewriting the law when the Legislature meets next January. “I, for one, would certainly be in favor of coming up with a fix for that, absolutely,” Stiegler said. “That probably goes back to the days of bootlegging, for goodness’ sakes.” Stiegler said it may be possible for the Oregon Attorney General’s Office to figure out how to create a “short-term administrative fix” for the OLCC, allowing home-brewing contests and clubs to carry on until the law is changed. Conger agreed. “That should be a simple, noncontroversial thing to fix, and it certainly would be appropriate for the Legislature to clarify it for the agency and the homebrewers so they can continue to enjoy their activity,” Conger said.

An early phase of the RUBI project tested with toddlers at the University of California in San Diego. RUBI looks like a desktop computer come to life: its screen-torso, mounted on a pair of shoes, sprouts mechanical arms and a lunchbox-sized head, fitted with cameras, a microphone and voice capability. I call informational hotspots,” where their mother or father is looking, said Andrew Meltzoff, a psychologist who is co-director of university’s Institute for Learning and Brain Sciences. This, he said, is how learning begins. This basic finding, to be published later this year, is one of dozens from a field called affective computing that is helping scientists discover exactly which features of a robot make it most convincingly “real” as a social partner, a helper, a teacher. The San Diego researchers found that if RUBI reacted to a child’s expression or comment too fast, it threw off the interaction; the same happened if the response was too slow. But if the robot reacted within about a second and a half, child and machine were smoothly in sync. One way to begin this process is to have a child mimic the physical movements of a robot and vice versa. In a continuing study financed by the National Institutes of Health, scientists at the University of Connecticut are conducting therapy sessions for children with
autism using a French robot called Nao, a 2-foot humanoid that looks like an elegant Transformer toy. The robot, remotely controlled by a therapist, demonstrates martial arts kicks and chops and urges the child to follow suit; then it encourages the child to lead. This simple mimicry seems to build a kind of trust, and increase sociability, said Anjana Bhat, an assistant professor in the department of education who is directing the experiment.
Learning from humans “Do you have any questions, Simon?” On a recent Monday afternoon, Crystal Chao, a graduate student in robotics at the Georgia Institute of Technology, was teaching a 5foot robot named Simon to put away toys. She had given some instructions — the flower goes in the red bin, the block in the blue bin — and Simon had correctly put away several of these objects. But now the robot was stumped, its doughboy head tipped forward, its fawn eyes blinking at a
green toy water sprinkler. Chao repeated her query. “Let me see,” said Simon, in a childlike machine voice, reaching to pick up the sprinkler. “Can you tell me where this goes?” “In the green bin,” came the answer. Simon nodded, dropping it in that bin. “Makes sense,” the robot said. In addition to tracking motion and recognizing language, Simon accumulates knowledge
through experience. Just as humans can learn from machines, machines can learn from humans, said Andrea Thomaz, an assistant professor of interactive computing at Georgia Tech who directs the project. This ability to monitor and learn from experience is the next great frontier for social robotics — and it probably depends, in large part, on unraveling the secrets of how the human brain accumulates information during infancy. In San Diego, researchers are trying to develop a human-looking robot with sensors that approximate the complexity of a year-old infant’s abilities to feel, see and hear. Babies learn, seemingly effortlessly, by experimenting, by mimicking, by moving their limbs. Could a machine with sufficient artificial intelligence do the same? And what kind of learning systems would be sufficient? The research group has bought a $70,000 robot, built by a Japanese company, that is controlled by a pneumatic pressure system that will act as its senses, in effect helping it map out the environment by “feeling” in addition to “seeing” with embedded cameras. And that is the easy part. The researchers are shooting for nothing less than capturing the foundation of human learning — or, at least, its artificial intelligence equivalent. If robots can learn to learn, on their own and without instruction, they can in principle make the kind of teachers that are responsive to the needs of a class, even an individual child.

Health care Continued from A1 Proponents of such systems, including St. Charles, say they are best and easiest for patients. With all services in one place, it can be easier to coordinate care, avoid duplication of tests and services, and make sure patients are getting what they need. That, they say, can reduce costs for patients and for the health care system as a whole. But critics of these systems say creating an integrated system can create a closed network, in which some doctors are in and some are out. Not only does that create tension in the medical community, but patients may be less likely to be referred to physicians outside the system, even if those doctors would provide high-quality care. “There’s going to be more and easier access to some of the resources that a larger institution has,” said Tannus Quatre, a health care consultant at Vantage Clinical Solutions in Bend. On the other hand, he said, “it’s when the economic benefits to the system are the driving force in clinical decision-making that problems can occur.” Quatre said he’s not suggesting that does or will happen, only that it’s possible.
How it happened
the hospital or within the region. “Before, your incentive to do that was the goodness of your heart,” said Murphy.
An integrated system St. Charles is currently engaged in a “complete redesign of the whole (health) system,” said Mike Bonetto, a vice president in the organization and one of the primary orchestrators of that redesign. One of the most important components is getting physicians to line up with the hospital and sign on to the principles behind an integrated health system. “What we have seen from other models is there has to be some alignment and agreement around best practices and clinical outcomes,” Bonetto said. “You can be employed, you can be affiliated, but you need alignment.” Bonetto said he sees a future in which some physicians are employed by the hospital, while others remain independent but agree to cooperate with the hospital in achieving outcome measures or adhering to practice standards. The Physician Hospital Alignment, to which 488 physicians have signed on, is the first step in that process. The Physician Hospital Alignment, initiated about a year ago, is based on a pledge of cooperation between physicians and St. Charles to create a communitybased health care system. Physicians who sign onto the alignment pledge to work toward the goal of creating a healthier community, enhancing the patient care experience and reducing health care costs. The alignment includes only this shared goal; it does not obligate a physician to any financial or other relationship with St. Charles. The hospital already employs 21 physicians in various specialties, including obstetrics, pulmonology, neonatology, oncology and, in Redmond and Prineville, three primary care physicians. The employment of Cascade Medical Clinic, however, would represent the first time the hospital has acquired an existing practice for reasons other than financial problems or a lack of medical providers in an area. “It does feel different,” said Jim Diegel, CEO of St. Charles. “It’s not reactive. It’s really about physicians who want to be a part of something different.”
Cascade Medical Clinic approached St. Charles about employment earlier this year, according to Dr. Dan Murphy, a family physician and partner in the clinic. “We made the phone call,” he said, “and I think it’s fair to say we caught them off guard.” It took several weeks, Murphy said, for St. Charles to send back a memorandum of understanding stating they would examine the proposal. The clinic made the decision after months of deliberations, Murphy said. The catalyst was the expansion of BMC in Redmond beginning last fall. BMC increased its staff fivefold, and added more specialties and lab services. That, Murphy said, brought physicians at the clinic together to figure out how to respond. “We had to make a strategic decision about which way our resources were going to go,” Murphy said. The clinic considered going head-to-head with BMC on its own. That would have meant increasing advertising, he said, and possibly trying to trim clinic staff.

C OV ER S T ORY “There’s going to be more and easier access to some of the resources that a larger institution has. ...

care. The idea is to create a financial incentive to keep costs as low as possible while delivering good health care. Another incentive is to consolidate the number of separate institutions involved, not only so each institution receives a larger payment but so the episode of care is easier to control. The better control one organization has, the better they will be able to hold to certain standards of quality. In the future, “you’re really going to be held accountable for the outcome,” Bonetto said. “We’re really trying to skate to where the puck is in terms of health care reform.”
Visible changes If the contract to employ physicians at Cascade Medical Clinic does go through, it’s unclear if and when patients would see significant changes. The staff at the clinic is already employed by St. Charles under a 14-year-old agreement that originated when the clinic was having financial difficulties. Initially, said Murphy, patients might see changes in the branding of the clinic, which would use St. Charles names and logos, and, he said, the clinic intends to do some remodeling of the building. Over time, Murphy hopes that with the help of St. Charles resources, the clinic would be able to add more services in its building. He gave the example of putting mental health services in the area so that patients needing that service could be walked over to a counselor after an appointment, “as opposed to telling a patient, ‘Here, call this number and here’s the emergency line.’” Patients really like the “onestop-shopping sort of model,” Murphy said. Another potential change, and one likely to be less welcomed by patients, could be higher fees for Medicare patients. Most of the time, when physicians become employees of a hospital, the clinics where those physicians work technically become hospital outpatient departments, even if the physical location of the clinic does not change. For Medicare purposes, being a hospital outpatient department rather than a private clinic typically means services cost more. For Medicare patients with coinsurance, where they pay a percentage of the service cost, that can push up their out-of-pocket expenses. The change is not automatic, said Stephanie Magill, a spokeswoman for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. But nearly all hospitals do it if they intend to use the same billing structure. Patients with Medicare Advantage plans, Magill said, will likely not be affected because those plans have private contracts with the hospitals.
Referral patterns A big question, in this acquisition and others like it, is whether the close affiliation between a group of physicians and the hospital will change the pattern of referrals to other physicians. Ideally, patients are referred to the physician best suited to their needs. But who is best suited can be a nebulous concept. When there are multiple specialists, all trained similarly, there may be several physicians who could meet a patient’s needs. The worry is, in that case, whether financial motivations play a role in the referral. Referrals are a big deal to physicians. For specialists, it’s the way most make their living. Physicians and hospitals ardently defend their referral networks and often fight any efforts to threaten those networks. In Central Oregon, referral patterns have been an issue, particularly between BMC physicians and those who are, or who are at least perceived to be, aligned with St. Charles. St. Charles and physicians leading the movement to create the Physician Hospital Alignment have insisted since its inception that it is not intended to change referral patterns, nor should it be seen as a referral network. “Patients receive care from the most appropriate place,” Bonetto said. Where a patient is referred, he continued, is “going to be up to the physician and patient.” Murphy, however, said integrating with the hospital could change where he sends patients. To be sure, he said he would work hard to find the most appropriate care for the patient and respect the patient’s wishes for a referral. On a recent day, he said, he had
referred a patient with a gall bladder problem to BMC physicians despite the fact they are actively competing with him for business. But, he said, “all things being equal, if we have within the system doctors that provide orthopedic care, pulmonary care and other things, I’m going to send people within the system. I don’t think that would be a shock to you.” He said the motivation for referring people within the system was partially because he knew doctors within the system would be adhering to the same quality standards he had endorsed, and partially for financial reasons. Citing the hospital’s mission to provide free care to those who cannot afford it, he said referrals “benefit the hospital. St. Charles is a nonprofit and has to use the margin they make to cover charity care.” In any system where physicians are employed, referral patterns can become a problem, said Dr. Rich MacDonnel, an internal medicine physician and chief of the division of primary care for internal medicine at St. Charles. “When you do get pretty incestuous like that, you do worry about the referral patterns a little bit. … BMC is a longstanding example of this.” MacDonnel said that when he sends patients to BMC for services, he does not get the patient back. “They have their own primary care. They tend not to refer outside.” BMC spokeswoman Christy McLeod denied that the clinic had a pattern of referring to primary care providers within the clinic. After a specialist appointment, she said, all paperwork “goes back to the original primary care provider. … That patient has an already established relationship with the primary care provider.” Patients, she said, are referred based on their preference. “It really comes down to what the pa-

tient wants,” she said. “If a patient wants to stay in and have all their care taken of in one place, we would do that.”
The future It’s unclear whether Cascade Medical Clinic would be the only large group of primary care physicians to become employed by the hospital. Bonetto said there are several primary care groups that have expressed interest in employment with St. Charles. High Lakes Health Care, second only to BMC in regional employment of primary care physicians, declined to comment for this story. The Bulletin contacted more than a dozen other primary care clinics in the area. All said they were either not considering employment or did not return calls for comment. If St. Charles succeeds in creating an integrated health system, it would surely include a number of physicians affiliated in some way with the hospital. When you have people agree on best practices and align around that, Bonetto said, “it starts to change everything.” Many physicians, through their endorsement of the Physician Hospital Alignment, have done that. How they choose to go forward, by going all the way to employment or no further than they have already, remains to be seen. Whether there are ever primary care physicians in Bend employed by the hospital, said Murphy, “really depends on whether the idea catches on. … It’s going to depend on how many physicians stick up their hand and say, ‘Let’s make this a reality.’”
Trio of odd planes part of NASA’s storm study By Ken Kaye (Florida) Sun Sentinel
NASA, best known for launching space shuttles, plans to dispatch three unusual airplanes this summer to investigate why some tropical systems suddenly become major hurricanes. One of those planes, a 44year-old, four-engine Douglas DC-8 jet, will be based at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport in Florida. The other two planes are a WB-57 high-altitude jet, which will be based in Houston; and an unmanned Global Hawk, which will be based in Palmdale, Calif. The WB-57, a converted light bomber originally designed by the British in the 1950s, can fly up to 60,000 feet. The Global Hawk is a 13-ton jet normally used by the U.S. Air Force and Navy to fly surveillance missions. Under a six-week mission, to be conducted during the busiest stretch of the hurricane season, the planes will fly in and around tropical storms to sample the atmosphere. The idea is to figure out how major hurricanes — Category 3, 4 and 5 — form and why many of them rapidly intensify, a process the National Hurricane Center in MiamiDade County, Fla., doesn’t fully understand. Ultimately, NASA hopes to help the hurricane center improve forecasts, said Michael Finneran, a space agency spokesman.

“It used to be that these sleepers and spies were sent back and they were submerged into the gray Soviet reality after the bright West. But now, these people today will be able to resettle not as intelligence officers but as average Russian citizens. Basically, they will be able to get what they had in the West.” — Sergei Chertoprud, historian
Spies
In the rapid-fire spy swap, the United States and Russia worked together as only old enemies could. Less than two weeks after the FBI broke the spy ring in a counterintelligence operation cultivated for a decade, 10 Russian secret agents caught in the U.S. are back in Russia, four convicted of spying for the West have been pardoned and released by Moscow, and bilateral relations appear on track again. In describing how the swap unfolded, U.S. officials made clear that even before the arrests, Washington wanted not only to take down a spy network but to move beyond the provocative moment. So the U.S. made an offer, and Russia was ready to deal.
SPECIAL
BARGAINING CHIPS FROM EARLY ON The detailed case against the network of secret Russian agents was brought to the attention of the White House in February, officials said. On June 11, President Barack Obama was briefed on the matter. Well before FBI agents moved against the operatives late that month, Washington had in mind that they might become bargaining chips to free Russians imprisoned for betraying Moscow and helping the West. The U.S. arrests were not made to facilitate a swap, said a U.S. official, speaking on condition of anonymity to discuss matters of intelligence. Rather, they were precipitated, at least partly, by the plans of several of the Russians to leave this country this summer. He said that as the time approached to take down the ring, the question officials asked each other was, “Once the arrests take place, what do we do?” CIA and FBI officials decided that because the sleepers had been observed and tracked by U.S. agents for so long, there was nothing to be gained or learned from them, the official said. Once in custody, the operatives “provided an opportunity for us to get something from the Russians.” The Russians, despite crying foul in public over the arrests, were ready to privately listen. That set the stage for three phone calls between CIA Director Leon Panetta and Russia’s

Recently, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers completed a Site Inspection at the former Northwest Maneuver Area (NWMA). Acquired by special use permit in 1943, the area was used by the Army for a large-scale force-on-force exercise conducted during September, October and November 1943, which was referred to as the “1943 maneuvers.” Seven counties in south-central Oregon comprised the approximate 8-million-acre (10,000square-mile) area. These include all or part of Jefferson, Deschutes, Crook, Grant, Lake, Harney and Klamath Counties. The permit relinquished the land in 1945, and the property reverted to ownership by the Department of Interior, private entities and municipal and unincorporated communities.

In the end, channels of communication that once coursed with world-shaking superpower crises were reflexively put into play. Moscow and Washington not only have a history of nuclear-tipped tension but also long experience keeping those tensions in check. Just imagine if the U.S. had been caught up in a spy flare-up with Iran instead. “This case has been done with electrifying speed,” said John Martin, who oversaw Cold War espionage prosecutions and trades during a 27-year career at the Justice Department. “I’ve never seen so much pressure to do it quickly.” — Calvin Woodward, The Associated Press

that I left Moscow.” Moscow does have several English-language private schools, which are largely for children of expatriates. But some Russians send their children, including some who were once abroad. For now, it seems as if the repatriates are in seclusion while intelligence officials question them. And then they will venture into a country that has changed rapidly in recent years. The question is whether the new face of Russia will be enough to allow them to forget the old days. Not everyone is convinced. “I think that they will still have a lot of discomfort,” said Aleksandr Kolpakidi, an intelligence historian in Moscow. “They lived so many years in America. And we still have a massive number of problems here. “So, in the end, I think that they will want to go back. To America.”

Or maybe not. There is also the matter of political freedoms. It is not clear how much the faux Americans engaged in politics in the United States, but it is harder here to get your voice heard. While Russians no longer endure Soviet-type control, the Kremlin still dominates.
While the former spies may not be jarred themselves, some have children, and they will be. It is unclear whether the children speak Russian (or even knew their parents were Russian). The Russian public education system can seem like a throwback. Public schools tend to be more academically rigorous than those in America. They also rely more on rote learning and frown on individualism. Like the country in general, they are sometimes plagued by corruption, with educators demanding expensive gifts from parents for favorable treatment. “The kids may experience culture shock,” said Masha Charnay, 24, a freelance journalist who moved from Moscow to the Bronx at 13 and moved back here in 2008. “My teachers here were extremely Soviet, and extremely corrupt.

Breaking down a real-life spy story

Continued from A1 Anyone back here after a long sojourn may be surprised to discover that, at least in and around the major cities, you can often find almost anything sold in the New York metropolitan area. It is not just that many Soviet hardships have vanished. It is what has taken over: a rampant middleclass consumerism that feels very American. This is the new Russia that will have to win them over. If Richard and Cynthia Murphy (now exposed as Vladimir and Lydia Guryev) are homesick for Montclair, N.J., they can peruse the brochures for gated communities in the Moscow region. They might fancy Linden Park or Greenfield, or others with names right out of an American atlas, not to mention architectural touches that would warm the heart of any American striver. (Remember the Murphys’ hydrangeas, which became a symbol of the spy affair when a disbelieving neighbor remarked that they gardened like such ordinary suburbanites? Hydrangeas don’t do so bad here, either.) And it may be Moscow, but developers promote an important feature in these new houses — central air-conditioning. American brands. In fact, the list of products that speak to the American middleclass lifestyle and have gained popularity in Russia is long. Procter & Gamble has one of its fastest-growing subsidiaries here, selling — and widely advertising — products like Tide, Pampers and Head & Shoulders. McDonald’s and Starbucks continue to spread. So does Amway, that touchstone of American living-room marketing. Sales of its Nutrilite dietary supplements leaped 34 percent in 2009 in Russia from the previous year, despite the financial crisis. “It used to be that these sleepers and spies were sent back and they were submerged into the gray Soviet reality after the bright West,” said Sergei Chertoprud, a Moscow historian who studies the Soviet intelligence services. “But now, these people today will be able to resettle not as intelligence officers but as average Russian citizens. Basically, they will be able to get what they had in the West.”
And despite gains in the past decade, widespread economic inequality persists. Moscow, St. Petersburg and a few other cities are far wealthier than the rest of the land. So there is less opportunity for mobility. Many former spies in the Soviet era felt less deprived of goods — they received more privileges than typical Soviet citizens — than of connections to the lives they once had. The Soviet government was suspicious about their loyalties and kept them far away from foreigners and even foreign newspapers. The new arrivals will probably have it much easier. If Donald Howard Heathfield (now known as Andrey Bezrukov) wants to check in with his pals in the Boston area, he can conduct a video chat by walking into the nearest Internet cafe in Moscow. The FSB, the main successor to the KGB, may discourage him and the others from doing so, but it will be hard-pressed to stop them, short of arresting them. The Internet in Russia is generally not censored. Anna Chapman, the 28-yearold whose attractiveness put her at the center of much media coverage, will have every opportunity to stay in the spotlight. Russian tabloids and Internet sites have shown as much interest in her as their counterparts in New York and London. “They will be able to do whatever they want, without limits — short of disclosing any intelligence secrets that they might know,” said Pyotr Gavrish, editor of Razvedka (Reconnaissance), an independent magazine about the intelligence services. “And Chapman, she has turned into this kind of media virus that shows no signs of stopping. In Russia, as abroad, there is no such thing as bad PR.” “This is a very new kind of spy situation, but one we are going to have to get used to,” he said.

TARP Continued from A1 Democrats who voted for the bailout — which was championed by their own leaders, along with President George W. Bush and Sen. John McCain, then the Republican presidential nominee — are now facing attacks from GOP challengers on the campaign trail. Republicans who voted for it are being accused of promoting big government and fiscal irresponsibility by tea party candidates and other conservatives. “It became a litmus test of fidelity to free enterprise principles,” said Rep. Bob Inglis, R-S.C., who was crushed in a primary last month partly because of his vote in favor of the plan. While banks have paid back most of the money, and the bailout is widely credited with having helped to prevent a financial calamity, support for the bailout has become among the biggest issues in the 2010 midterm elections, a powerful if simplistic way to attack what some see as government excess, misplaced priorities and a loss of trust between voters and elected officials. Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, is facing a Democratic challenger who is trying to link Grassley’s vote for the bailout to a pattern of support for bigger budget deficits. Sen. Arlen Specter’s support for the plan was one of the issues that helped drive him out of the Republican Party and into a Democratic primary in Pennsylvania that he lost this spring to Rep. Joe Sestak — whose own vote for TARP is now under attack from the Republican candidate, Pat Toomey. And in his own primary, McCain has been pilloried over his
Liberals’ patience withers over Afghan war
The Associated Press
For the last year and a half, on issues including health care, financial regulation and climate change, Democrats in Congress have bent for President Barack Obama. Liberals swallowed hard to accept compromises that fell short of their long-sought goals, and moderates cast tough votes that now threaten their re-election prospects as voters revolt against government overreach. That sense of cooperation could end, however, over disagreements on the war in Afghanistan. support for TARP by his conservative challenger, former Rep. J.D. Hayworth. “It is part of a bigger narrative,” said Nathan Gonzales, a nonpartisan analyst for the Rothenberg Political Report. “I don’t think a general election is going to be won or lost based on that one vote, but I think it will be part of a bigger argument that candidates are going
WASHINGTON — The moment has been long in coming, but it may finally have arrived. Last week, President Barack Obama asked his allies on Capitol Hill to approve more money for his troop buildup in an Afghanistan war that many Democrats oppose. On the eve of the vote last week, Democratic leaders compiled a complicated $82 billion package of war funding, disaster aid and domestic spending that achieved the seemingly impossible — meeting the president’s request while accommodating the needs of its politically diverse members. Obama responded with a one-word message that sent shudders through his party on the Hill: veto. In that exchange, the tension between the White House and its allies spilled over. Obama has led what historians have called the most productive Congress since President Lyndon Johnson, but he may have a much harder time extracting difficult compromises in the future. In recent weeks, the president has expressed growing interest in the remaining items on his legislative agenda, including energy and immigration policy. Both are initiatives whose only hope at passage would require another legislative squeeze from the lawmakers who have already yielded to some of the president’s toughest requests. Perhaps no issue illustrates the divide between the president and his party as the troop increase in the Afghanistan war, an escalated military campaign that many Democrats opposed. Liberals fought George W. Bush on the
to make against those incumbents who voted for it.

It was also a factor in the defeats of three members of Congress in primaries for governor,
war in Iraq. Some won their seats in the 2006 and 2008 elections doing so. But while many Democrats believe Afghanistan is the right war to fight, Obama’s decision to add 30,000 more troops last winter gave pause to the worried. Rep. David Obey, D-Wis., the powerful — and antiwar — chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, seized on the administration’s interest in saving 140,000 teachers’ jobs nationwide as a way to tack onto the war bill a legislative accomplishment that hews more closely to his caucus’s agenda. Obey devised a complicated legislative strategy that appeased liberal lawmakers by allowing antiwar amendments and pleased moderates by paying for the $10 billion teachers’ initiative without adding to the national debt. But the White House was not pleased with the arrangement, threatening late last week to veto the package if it contained any antiwar provisions — which ultimately failed. House Democrats were furious at an administration many see as tone deaf to the political realities facing lawmakers in a November electoral climate that is not expected to be friendly to incumbents. “The White House needs to be more engaged with the House’s agenda,” said Rep. Steve Cohen, an antiwar Tennessee Democrat. “The House is where its friends are.” As Obama turns to these friends in the weeks ahead, he may find it increasingly difficult to persuade them to yield to his remaining legislative priorities. — Lisa Mascaro, McClatchy-Tribune News Service
including that of Texas Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison. Across the country, House and Senate challengers are hammering incumbents in both parties who voted for the bailout, in many cases lumping it together with the $787 billion economic stimulus plan passed months later under President Barack Obama, as well as federal aid to automakers.
In Utah, Republican Sen. Robert Bennett, who was denied his party’s nomination in his bid for a fourth term, was branded “Bailout Bob.” “People would walk by my booth and say ‘TARP, TARP, TARP, TARP!’ But when you tried to talk to them about it, they did not know any of the details,” Bennett said in an interview. “They
confused TARP and the stimulus plan. They confused TARP and the omnibus bill. They confused TARP and the president’s budget.” Bennett said he had had little luck trying to explain the details: that economists generally agreed that the rescue plan worked; that he voted only for the first $350 billion installment and not for the second half; that just $475 billion was disbursed and that most of that has already been repaid, with interest. The Senate approved the bailout measure on Oct. 1, 2008, on a bipartisan vote of 74-25. The House initially rejected the proposal, but under prodding from the White House and leading members of both parties, House members ultimately voted 263-171 for the bill, with 91 Republicans joining 172 Democrats in backing it, while 108 Republicans and 63 Democrats voted no. Several of the House Democrats considered most vulnerable this year opposed the plan, sparing them from attacks over the bailout though they are still criticized for being part of the Congress that approved it. In Iowa, the Democratic Senate challenger, Roxanne Conlin, said that voters resented the government aid to big banks. She said she was working to portray Grassley as having supported big increases in the deficit, including the Bush tax cuts and the Medicare prescription drug benefit as well as TARP. “I did a 99-county tour, and in every single county the bailout came up,” Conlin said.

REDMOND SCHOOL DISTRICT
Shorter days for students put on hold District hopes ‘enrichment’ days could return as option another year By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin
Scott Hammers / The Bulletin
Bend sculptor Greg Congleton, wearing sunglasses, talks about “Papoose,” a Native American mother and child made from scrap metal and found objects. Nearly 200 artists are showing their work on Wall Street during the Bend Summer Festival.
SUMMER in the CITY
The Redmond School District has pulled back on plans to release its students early on Wednesdays in the 2010-11 school year, though the schedule could become a reality in following school years. The idea to shorten Wednesdays came up in the spring. District leaders worried then there was not enough time to plan and launch the schedule. Under a rough plan, groups were going to offer several options — tutoring, classes and internships — on Wednesdays. The programs, which the district called “enrichment Wednesdays,” would have created time both for student enrichment programs and teacher training. District staff is working to fit some of those programs into the regular class day. See Redmond / B6

We didn’t really have anything planned for today, and this just kind of found us,” Sunstein said. Tucked up against a building in search of shade, Jack and Sharon Carson, of Bend, watched most of a set played by Portland drummer Mel Brown and his band at the jazz stage on Minnesota Avenue. Jack Carson, 64, said he’d seen Brown play maybe half a dozen times and come away impressed every time. “He is a fantastic drummer. The whole band is really good, but Mel is a lot of fun to watch,” he said.

he Bend Summer Festival kicked off Saturday, taking over the streets of downtown Bend with art, music, food and drink. Now 20 years old, the Bend Summer Festival has grown to fill the full length of Wall Street between Greenwood and Franklin avenues. There are about 200 artists’ booths, three music stages and a food court, a children’s play area in the parking lot off Drake Park, and the “Souk de Summerfest,” a marketplace selling clothing, jewelry and other items. Off the alleyway between Oregon and Minnesota streets, the Locals Only Stage overlooking the food court features Central Oregon musical acts. Jessie Sunstein, 31, visiting from Beaverton and lingering to eat shaved ice with son Caleb, 4, said she didn’t know the festival was coming up when she brought her family over Friday afternoon.

By Kate Ramsayer To help reduce the amount of wood smoke particles that can cloud the air in wintertime, a new rule will require people selling a home in Oregon to remove any uncertified wood stove or fireplace insert. “This is one way to help clean up the air of the state,” said Rachel Sakata, air quality planner with the Department of Environmental Quality. Bend and Deschutes County already require removal of the old, uncertified stoves before homes are sold, she said. But the new rule, which goes into effect Aug. 1, applies to the entire state. Wood stoves emit tiny particles — a fraction of the width of a strand of hair — that can get deep into lungs and cause respiratory and cardiac problems in
certain people and aggravate asthma, Sakata said. And older stoves that have not been certified burn about 70 percent dirtier than newer, certified stoves, according to the DEQ. “These older stoves were not required to meet any emission testing (standards), and the newer ones have better technology,” Sakata said, comparing it to how newer cars emit less pollution. Bend’s wood stove rules were adopted more than a decade ago, she said, and the city hasn’t had as many problems with air quality as in the past. Under the new rules, the seller of a house must remove wood stoves or fireplace inserts that have not been certified as meeting emission standards set by the DEQ or U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Madras hospital closes outpatient rehab center By Lauren Dake The Bulletin
Sisters Outdoor Quilt Show To see video of the 35th annual show, including comments from quilters and a brief history of the event, visit www.bendbulletin .com/quilt
After two physical therapists at Mountain View Hospital in Madras decided to join forces and open a private clinic, the hospital staff decided to stop offering outpatient rehabilitation services after more than 20 years. The change will start at the end of this month. “We took a look at the marketplace and tried to determine, based on now having a second independent option, whether a third, hospital-based program could be sustained,” said John Weinsheim, chief of outpatient services at the hospital. “We made the determination it couldn’t be sustained, given the amount of outpatient care in the community here.” A letter was sent to 270 pa-
tients who had received rehabilitation care at the hospital in the last six months. Two people will lose their jobs in the transition. The remaining physical therapist will continue to work in inpatient care. But all inpatient care, such as home health and hospice, will continue through the hospital, according to Liz Martin, spokeswoman with Mountain View. Weinsheim said the decision was difficult, but the hospital is confident the community will continue to receive quality care. “One of those challenging components of making a decision like this ... is it touches a lot of folks,” he said. “These are services important to the community.” The change, Weinsheim said,
will not financially impact the hospital. “This wasn’t something we had planned,” he said. “When our therapists decided to follow the entrepreneurial track, we spent considerable time looking at the options, at the market and considered factors such as (the difficulty) of recruiting additional therapists here. There will now be two private outpatient rehabilitation clinics in Madras. Apex Physical Therapy already exists and Madras Physical Therapy Group is expected to open in August. “We are confident (patients) will have high-quality services in Madras,” Weinsheim said.

Vehicle hits streetlight, closing Baker Road
and failure to obey a traffic control device.
Traffic on Baker Road in Bend was restricted to one lane for two hours Saturday afternoon after a streetlight pole was knocked down in a single-vehicle crash. According to the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office, Jim S. Eckerdt, 46, of Bend, was driving south on the U.S. Highway 97 offramp approaching Baker Road when he experienced a medical problem. He ran through the stop sign and struck a guard rail and a streetlight pole, knocking the pole onto the road. Eckerdt suffered non-lifethreatening injuries and was transported by ambulance to St. Charles Bend. Because Eckerdt was aware of his medical condition and could have treated it prior to the crash, deputies cited him for reckless driving, failure to maintain lane

He has served with a number of National Guard units since 1984 and recently returned from a 14month deployment to Iraq with his current unit.
Silent auction to determine fate of Eagle Cap lodge By Richard Cockle The Oregonian
EAGLE CAP WILDERNESS — The picturesque, mountainrimmed Minam River Lodge in this sprawling federal wilderness is a place to get unplugged. It takes an 8 1/2-mile hike or horseback ride to get here and — best of all — cell phones don’t work. “That’s why we come,� said Jerry Atchley, 51, of Lebanon, who’s had vacations ruined by cell calls, usually from relatives. “When we find a place we can go to get away from the mainstream, we do it.� The problem for Atchley and other outdoors lovers who enjoy coming here is that the 60-yearold guest ranch is going to the highest bidder at a silent auction Aug. 18. The Minam River Lodge could disappear as a backcountry retreat. “This is the last operating wilderness lodge in eastern Oregon,� said John Rosenthal,
president of Realty Marketing Northwest of Portland, which is handling the auction. Among the possibilities for its future, he said: a conservation property or private retreat. Its sale could delete yet another in the diminishing number of “off-the-grid� places in Oregon where people can forget their smart phones and cars. Surrounded by the 560square-mile Eagle Cap Wilderness, the lodge has a 2,400-foot sod airstrip, main lodge with dormitory, five cabins, horse barn, corrals, and miniature sawmill on 127 acres. It can accommodate 35 guests. The late George Peekema of Vancouver, longtime owner of the Minam River Lodge, had a “For Sale� sign on the place for years with a $4.6 million asking price. After his Oct. 1 death at age 81, his heirs cut the price by more than half and scheduled the auction.

TODAY’S HIGHLIGHT IN HISTORY On July 11, 1960, “To Kill a Mockingbird,� Harper Lee’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel about childhood innocence and racial injustice in a small Southern town during the Great Depression, was first published by J.B. Lippincott and Co. ON THIS DATE In 1767, John Quincy Adams, the sixth president of the United States, was born in Braintree, Mass. In 1798, the U.S. Marine Corps was formally re-established by a congressional act that also created the U.S. Marine Band. In 1804, Vice President Aaron Burr mortally wounded former Treasury Secretary Alexander Hamilton in a pistol duel in Weehawken, N.J. In 1859, Big Ben, the great bell inside the famous London clock tower, chimed for the first time. (The clock itself had been keeping time since May 31.) In 1864, Confederate forces led by Gen. Jubal Early began an abortive invasion of Washington D.C., turning back the next day. In 1934, President Franklin D. Roosevelt became the first incumbent chief executive to travel through the Panama Canal. In 1952, the Republican national convention, meeting in Chicago, nominated Dwight D. Eisenhower for president and Richard M. Nixon for vice president. In 1979, the abandoned U.S. space station Skylab made a spectacular return to Earth, burning up in the atmosphere and showering debris over the Indian Ocean and Australia. In 1989, actor and director Laurence Olivier died in Steyning, West Sussex, England, at age 82.

Sheriff’s deputies reopened the case after Tattersall brought it to their attention, but they were unable to identify the boy. The body was reburied Thursday at Hillcrest Memorial Park.

Southern Oregon fire destroys 2 businesses MEDFORD — As fire destroyed two Southern Oregon wood products businesses, one of the owners said he managed to save just one piece of equipment and it was mostly of sentimental value — the 1967 Chevrolet dump truck he bought when he opened shop 27 years ago. Allen Surgeon of Rogue Valley Post and Pole in White City says the business was not insured, and for him and his wife, “It was everything we worked our whole lives for.” The fire Friday afternoon also destroyed a 140,000square-foot cabinet and door business, started grass fires for miles around and exploded a handful of propane tanks. About 100 firefighters from Jackson County controlled the blazes by nightfall. Authorities say it may take some time to determine the cause.
Candlelight vigil held for missing boy
Kaine Horman and Desiree Young were among the participants Friday night at Skyline School. Those at the vigil prayed, sang, lit candles and wrote notes on the Wall of Hope for Kyron. He was last seen at the school by his stepmother, Terri Moulton Horman, on June 4.
Man fatally stabbed in early morning fight PORTLAND — Portland police say a man was apparently stabbed to death during a fight overnight. The victim was found early Saturday morning on the ground near Northeast 103rd Avenue and Northeast Clackamas Street, next to a motorcycle, and the case was initially reported as a motorcycle accident. But investigating officers determined that the man had at least one wound consistent with a stabbing, and that a fight had broken out in the area at about 3:15 a.m. The man had been visiting friends in the area. Police are still investigating. — From wire reports

MEDFORD — Forty-seven years after an unidentified toddler was first laid to rest in an unmarked grave at Hillcrest Memorial Park, he was returned, still unknown, but not forgotten. The 2-year-old’s remains were placed in a tiny white casket, just 1 foot wide by 2 feet long. His black granite marker bears the inscription, “Unknown Baby Boy 1961 1963.” “We feel we’ve done all we can,” said Jackson County Deputy Medical Examiner Tim Pike. “We got a lot of information. And 10 to 20 years from now, maybe that will help others.” In 2008, a team of Jackson County Sheriff’s Office investigators, intrigued by a decades-old unsolved case of a child who was found in a weighted bundle of blankets and wire in Keene Creek Reservoir, stepped in to look for answers. Checking old cases stored in the county archives to see whether any still needed follow-up, volunteer special investigator Jim Tattersall found the questions. On July 11, 1963, a fisherman pulled what he thought was a blanket roll out of the mountain reservoir near Ashland and found the body of a boy about 2 years old wrapped inside along with two iron assayer’s molds, apparently intended as weights. The discovery launched a flurry of media stories and an investigation involving Oregon State Police and the FBI. Officers tried to track down where the boy’s clothing had been purchased. He wore a red, long-sleeve pullover shirt with thin white stripes, gray corduroy trousers with an elastic waist and a buckle for size adjustments, and a cloth diaper fastened with blue diaper pins and covered with
plastic pants. They attempted to match his footprints with those of newborns at local hospitals about the time he could have been born. Pages of tips, reports, letters and telegrams to neighboring jurisdictions and photographs stacked up, Detective Sgt. Colin Fagan said. Eventually, the case was put aside, stuck in storage until Tattersall found it. Haunted by the way the case simply stopped, Tattersall brought it up to Fagan and Pike. The team hoped that new technology and old memories might help them identify the child and perhaps even determine what happened to him. “We were hoping it would stir an emotion or a memory,” Pike said. They exhumed the body for DNA testing and facial reconstruction. They shared the story with the public, presenting old leads again and asking for new clues. One dead-end in the original case concerned a foster child matching the boy’s description. The daughters of Cecil and Beulah Johnson came forward with details about the foster child, named Cecil Roy Rapp but called “PeeWee,” who arrived at the Johnsons’ home shortly after his birth to a developmentally disabled teen from Rogue River at Fairview Home, a state institution in Salem. His sudden departure in early 1963 had saddened the family, who then feared the worst after the discovery in the reservoir. However, when they recounted the story to investigators and the newspaper in 2008, another family recognized PeeWee. He had lived in several foster homes in Ashland and Talent before settling in at age 5 with Dolores and
Kenneth Schwalb. The Schwalbs adopted him at 13 and he took his adoptive father’s middle name, too, becoming Cecil Andrew Schwalb and still living in Medford. As an adult, he tracked down his birth family and reunited with them, but he still knew little of his early life until the connection emerged through the ultimately unrelated case of the Keene Creek boy. The team tracked down other people mentioned in the original case, and in each instance trails led away from the reservoir and to adulthood for the children in question. Media attention also brought new tips that ultimately didn’t pan out. “We cleared up some mysteries,” said Tattersall. “We were able to get some people back together.” The forensic work that wasn’t available in the 1960s uncovered a few new details, but didn’t come up with an identity. Reports by Jeanne McLaughlin, a forensic anthropologist from Lane County, and Hal Berg, a Medford dentist, concluded that the boy was nearly 2 at the time of his death and that he likely had Down syndrome, Pike said. DNA samples from the body were sent to the Center for Human Identification at the University of North Texas, a massive undertaking funded in part by the National Institute of Justice, that works to match DNA from relatives of missing people and from unidentified remains. The boy’s DNA is now part of the database and will be part of routine searches for relatives, Pike explained. But with no new clues, investigators decided now was the time to honor the child with a respectful reburial on Thursday. Hillcrest Memorial Park donated a new casket and headstone and covered all burial expenses. “We’re still going to keep looking,” said Tattersall. “But he’s going back to being a cold case again.”
MEDFORD — Federal prosecutors are asking for a fiveyear sentence and restitution when a former official of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management faces a judge Monday for sentencing in a scheme that cost the government nearly half a million dollars. The government said 57year-old Luis Ramirez was a contract administrator for the U.S. Bureau of Land Management who used schemes such as approving contracts for work that was never done, billing twice for the same work and funneling work to his son, Evan. He used wire transactions to funnel money through contractors to his son and eventually to himself, the government said in court documents. Ramirez then filed bogus reports with the agency, court records show. Prosecutors say he used the proceeds for travel abroad, remodeling his Medford home, college for his son and a condo in the Bahamas. He and his son both were charged. They changed their innocent pleas in June. The father pleaded guilty to wire fraud and other charges. Prosecutors have asked Judge Owen Panner to sentence him to 63 months in prison, the upper end a range of sentences under federal guidelines. The government is also seeking $481,602.47 in restitution. His son pleaded guilty to a tax charge, failing to report income. Prosecutors recommend probation for him that includes six months of home detention.

Four schoolmates reunite for golf tourney in 1985
TUNNELS OF CHERRIES
100 YEARS AGO For the week ending July 10, 1910
Andy Cripe / Corvallis Gazette-Times
Hannah Westly, 18, picks Rainier cherries in the morning at the Oregon State University Research Farm just outside Corvallis. Three varieties of cherry trees are growing in greenhouse tunnels as part of a five-year research project.
OSU research farm controls conditions that affect state crop By Raju Woodward The Gazette-Times
CORVALLIS — Hannah Westly bit into the plump reddish-yellow Rainier cherry she’d just picked. “Mmm … delicious. I think this tree is ready.” Beside her, Annie Chozinski bit into another cherry from the same tree. Chozinski is a faculty research assistant with the Horticulture Department of Oregon State University. “She’s testing to see how sweet it is,” Chozinski said, after spitting out the cherry pit. “There are tests that can determine how sweet a cherry is, but when you have been out here as long as we have, we know how to discriminate.” Westly, 18, is one of four workers who enjoy the perks of harvesting cherries this summer at Oregon State University’s research farm off Peoria Road. Tasting cherries is strongly encouraged. For five years, 320 cherry trees have been growing in three tentlike tunnels on about six-tenths of an acre located in back of the farm. Each tunnel is 400 feet long, 30 feet wide, 15 feet tall and has a different colored roof to allow for different wavelengths of sunlight to hit the trees. The elaborate setup is part of a research project by OSU horticulture professor Anita Azarenko. Its goal is to improve the Willamette Valley’s cherry-growing industry using some innovative methods. Growing in tunnels along with the Rainier cherries are Early Robin and a yet-to-be-named British Columbian variety. All three varieties are known as blush cherries, and they seem to thrive out of the sun. “The tunnels provide a warm and dry atmosphere for the cherries to grow in,” Chozinski said. “It also allows us to control environmental factors. For example, we put bees in the tunnels to pollinate the trees.” Another advantage to growing cherries in tunnels? The birds can’t pick the trees clean. An electric fence surrounds the entrance to the tunnels to keep out other
animals such as raccoons. The protection that the tunnels provide allows the cherries to ripen faster; they were harvested about two weeks earlier than orchard-grown cherries. In fact, the OSU cherries have been sold since June 15 at the farmers markets held on Wednesdays and Saturdays in Corvallis. Chozinski said the tunnelgrowing system could benefit smaller farmers because it would enable them to deliver cherries to markets early in the growing season, when the demand is high. “You want to be the first on the market when the demand is starting,” Chozinski said. “That’s when the value of cherries is the highest.” For example, the OSU cherries are being sold at the farmers markets for $6 a pound. Chozinski said that price could drop to $3 later in the season. She said she expects about 10,000 pounds of cherries to be picked from the trees in the tunnels. Chozinski said the tunnelgrowing system also is ideal for one- to two-acre orchards because the tunnels can be quickly dismantled during a storm. “I don’t think it would be possible for someone with eight to 10 acres of cherry trees to use this system,” Chozinski said. “They wouldn’t be able to take down the tunnels if a windstorm hit.” Protecting the Rainier and Early Robin cherries is particularly important because such blush cherry varieties bruise easily. Workers must pick these cherries by gently pulling the stems from the branches and filling padded buckets only halfway to prevent bruising. The good news is that the workers can eat any cherries that get bruised. And believe it or not, all four workers said they aren’t sick of cherries, despite being surrounded by them every day. “We may be done with them at the end of the day,” said OSU junior Taylor Westly, who is Hannah’s older sister. “When we wake up in the morning, we get right back to eating them.”

R.R. WORK BOTH NIGHT AND DAY The sad-eyed skeptics who cling to their alleged belief that a railroad for Bend is but a dream, may have their illusions rudely disturbed by both day and night now. For not only is work being hastened on the grading on the outskirts of town and immediately north, but so great is the apparent haste to rush the construction that night and day shifts are being employed. For the last ten days a veritable bombarding of “shots” had been heard from the railroaders. In the cut on the outskirts of town a crew of men is constantly at work, and already great progress has been made and a considerable amount of grading practically completed. The camp of Bryan and Youngstrom, a mile out on the Pilot Butte canal, is being enlarged, as, apparently, are the working crews. Rossi & Adams, four miles north, have almost a mile of work well on the way to completion, while a big new camp has been installed to the east of Long Butte. The whole line from Bend to the lava fields is being re-located. A big force of engineers are engaged in this work, and Engineer Scott, who has been located at Bend, in charge of the residency here, has moved his camp to Wet Weather Springs, where he is engaged in the re-location. It is stated upon good authority that the final location of the east and west line has been completed from Millican westerly, and that the survey “ties on” to the Oregon Trunk directly to the south of town, and not a mile or more south, as at first expected. Since the recent visit of the Harriman chiefs numerous and credible reports emanating from apparently authoritative sources are thick, all to the effect that before many weeks announcement will be made of a Harriman road from Redmond to Bend. TURPIN GOES TO WILLAMETTE Harry Turpin leaves tomorrow for a tour of the Willamette Valley. He is taking with him a lot of Bend boosting ammunition, including leaflets, G.N. “dope” buttons, Bend Bulletins, etc., and says he is going to do the boosting act from one end of the Valley to the other, until the mountain roads are crowded with folks on their way to Bend.
75 YEARS AGO For the week ending July 10, 1935 THOUSANDS SEE RIVER PAGEANT ON DESCHUTES Out of Bend’s enchanted harbor, through a vast arch whose colors changed as bombs burst in the air, and into the mystic mirror pond last night drifted caravels of great beauty that enthralled 16,000 people crowded along the Drake Park shores. The occasion was Bend’s third annual Fourth of July water pageant, acclaimed the greatest ever presented on the pic-
Y E S T E R D AY turesque mirror pond and probably the greatest of all fetes ever attempted in the northwest. “Bubbling Youth,” a bowl with girls in its facets and iridescent bubbles ascending into the dark skies, won first place in the artistic division, and the Harding memorial of classic design, was awarded second place. In the unique division “Showboat,” a replica of the boats of fun that plied the Mississippi in olden days, won first place and “Covered Wagon,” drawn by four oxen placed second. Low in the west, above the snow capped Three Sisters hung a crescent moon and brilliant Venus, and just as the queen float, a huge white swan, came under the arch of changing colors a meteor shot out of the east, its fragments falling in sparks as it blazed through the heavens along with a great amount of fireworks sent up from the ground. While the great crowd was still visible in the deepening twilight, Minor Welch, on the back bay side of the arch, pulled a switch on the receipt of instructions from W.A. Lackoff, in charge of illumination, and the vast arch was flooded with white light. Later, another switch was pulled and 100 Japanese lanterns, strung along the west bank of the mirror lake, burst into light and their rays were imprisoned and extended by the placid water. A few minutes later, another switch was closed and nine garden bowl shore designs, red and green, blazed along the east shore. Just as the first lights were switched on, an aerial bomb, shot into the sky by Ben Whisenand and Kenneth E. Sawyer, in charge of fireworks, burst with a terrific explosion and the sound of the detonation reverberated through wooded Drake Park, like a sharp crack of thunder. “Clear the river” came a call over the public address system, with W.E. Searcy at the microphone, and under the arch came A.E. Schuman’s speedboat, dividing the water into a “V” spray as it shot down the mirror lake with an American flag streaming in the breeze. The pageant was underway.
50 YEARS AGO For the week ending July 10, 1960 “NEW” FETE OFF TO GOOD START; NOW LET’S START BUILDING IT UP FOR NEXT JULY 4TH (Editorial) Thousands on three nights over the Fourth of July weekend viewed and were thrilled by Bend’s “new” Mirror Pond fete. It was a river show entirely different from pageants of the past, dating to 1933. The great arch of blending colors was missing. And so were the floats, with fete queen and princesses riding giant swan and cygnets into the dark river. Yet the 1960 fete was a crowd pleaser. There was more applause Sunday night, when the seating area was packed to near capacity, than in all 26 previous fetes. People were awed by the earlier arch. But awe does not draw applause. There was plenty to applaud this year. The dancing water feature, blending music with color and motion, was a beautiful show. The young dancers from Spokane, in their colorful outfits, earned the many rounds of applause they received. Miss America was gracious.

It was a grand show, under the July stars and a quarter moon riding over the pines. Now the show is history, and Bend must plan for other fetes on the river. What of the future? There are some who would like to see the colorful arch of Mirror Pond fame incorporated in future shows. This is virtually out of the question. The arch is too costly. Also, there has been evidence through local attendance in recent years that Bend residents have tired of arch and floats. The river shows of former years had a rather simple start. The “new” fete in the aquatic cove facing Drake Park Saturday night had a fine start. From this auspicious beginning, possibly an even better pageant can be built. Through the years, the Deschutes fetes have been held primarily for one purpose, that of calling attention of visitors in the vacation season to the beauty of the river as it sweeps through Bend. Up until this year, that beauty has been destroyed for periods of more than a month out of each summer by the construction of barges, arch and ugly booms needed for the three-night show. This year, Bend visitors enjoyed the fete in the river amphitheater facing picturesque Drake Park. And they enjoyed the full beauty of a river unmarred by wreckage. Pageantarians can start planning for their 1961 show with the knowledge that they planned well for the 1960 fete. They presented a show that utilized, but still retained, the beauty of the Mirror Pond.
25 YEARS AGO For the week ending July 10, 1985 FOURSOME REUNITES IN TOURNEY The annual Mirror Pond Invitational Golf Tournament is more than a showcase for many of the best amateurs in the Northwest. It also serves as the centerpiece for a reunion of four former schoolmates. Des Currie, Sterling McGarvey, John Prince and Omer Taylor first started playing golf together in 1935 while all four were attending Bend Senior High School. Though the school didn’t sponsor a golf team in those days, all four played at the then-nine-hole Bend Golf and Country Club and in interclub tournaments. McGarvey, Prince and Taylor were junior members of the club and Currie was a caddy, “who could
only play with them on Mondays,” he said. “We used to play in twelvesomes for nickels and dimes,” Prince recalled. “That is what I remember best. “The course was a lot different then than it is now,” Prince added. “It was only nine holes then. It’s nice now, but the original course was really nice.” “It was the best nine-hole course in the world,” chipped in Taylor. “Back then the fairways were harder and there was more rough. We had to play out of the rough a lot more than we do now. You learned to hit the ball straight and let it roll.” Whenever they didn’t hit it down the fairway, the four spent quite a bit of time searching for lost balls. “We didn’t want to lose any 35-cent balls. War and the pursuit of college educations separated the foursome in the 1940s. But they got back together and began playing golf at Bend again in 1948. And they were pretty good at the game. Prince has twice been the club champion and McGarvey took that honor once. The foursome later split up again as three of them moved to other areas of the west. Only Currie has remained in Bend, where he works for Lumbermens Insurance Agency. Taylor is now an aeronautical engineer for Boeing in Seattle, Prince is a general manager for Georgia-Pacific and lives in Lake Oswego, and McGarvey is vicepresident of Morris and Knudsen, a construction firm based in Boise, Idaho. Every year for the past seven years the foursome has held a reunion in Bend, making the Mirror Pond tournament one of the highlights. As they celebrated their 50th anniversary of playing golf together Saturday, a back injury forced Currie to miss participating in this year’s tournament. But Currie, who was the chairman of the first two Mirror Pond events, was at the tournament Saturday to welcome his former partners as they finished their rounds.

Donald Judd Lytle April 16, 1925 - June 29, 2010 Donald Judd Lytle passed into the arms of his savior and joined his heavenly family, June 29, 2010. Don was born April 16, 1925, in Bend Oregon, to Judd Barnes Lytle and Marian Gladys Donahue, the younger of their two children. The Lytle's ranched in Suplee, Oregon until Don was Donald Judd eight, at Lytle which time they moved to Bend after Judd Lytle unexpectedly passed away. A year later they bought a small farm in the Redmond area and raised turkeys for sale and Marian taught school in Alfalfa and Sisters. Don joined the U.S. Navy and fought at several key battles in the Pacific theater, the Battle at Leyte Gulf and the Battle at Okinawa, to name a few. He also participated in the occupation of Japan at the end of the war. After the war, Don met Alta Nolan and they later married on August 26, 1950. They had two sons together and owned a small farm west of Redmond. Eventually, relocating to Bakersfield Calif., Don took work in a potato packing warehouse, where he learned his trade that he spent the rest of his career in. Don moved back to Central Oregon in 1954, and went to work at Deschutes Valley Potato Co., in Metolius, OR, as warehouse foreman. He met Shirley Rollins and they were married Sept. 3, 1956, settling on their farm in the Culver
area in 1962. In 1977, Don went to work for Round Butte Growers and Packers in Culver, buying, selling, and packing the potatoes raised by the local farms. He continued working until 1985, at which time he suffered a career-ending stroke. Don lived the last 25 years of his life in a wheelchair, but his positive attitude and generous spirit were an inspiration to all that knew him. He is survived by his sons, Daniel Judd Lytle of Lake Atitlan, Guatemala, Gary Lytle and wife, Pam of Culver, Robert Rollins of McMinnville and daughter, Patricia Akin of Aurora; his sister, Alma Miller of Tangent, and her children, Les, Deanna, Jeanette, and Doug.

Expelled Jesuit Bill Callahan fought for ordaining women By Douglas Martin New York Times News Service
The Rev. William Callahan, a Roman Catholic priest and selfdescribed “impossible dreamer” whose vociferous and organized opposition to Vatican policies prompted Jesuit officials to expel him from their order, died Monday in Washington, D.C. He was 78. The cause was complications of Parkinson’s disease, said the Quixote Center, an organization that Callahan helped found to press for reforms in the church and society. It is independent of the church and based in Brentwood, Md. He lived there. Like Cervantes’ fictional character, who inspired the center’s name, Callahan tilted at windmills and never accomplished his major goals, the biggest of which was ordaining women as priests. But his spirited campaigns made him a thorn in the church’s side for a generation. “Bill tried to be a prophetic voice in the church, a voice crying in the wilderness,” said the Rev. Thomas Reese, a senior fellow at the Woodstock Theological Center at Georgetown University.
Roberto Suarez, founder of El Nuevo Herald, dies By Bruce Weber New York Times News Service
Roberto Suarez, a Cuban refugee whose career in journalism started late — in the mailroom of The Miami Herald — but who rose to become president of the company and the founder and publisher of the newspaper’s independent Spanish-language sister, El Nuevo Herald, died Wednesday at his home in Miami. He was 82. The cause was complications of Alzheimer’s disease, his daughter Elena said. Suarez had worked in banking and real estate and was the father of nine when he left Fidel Castro’s Cuba in 1961, joining the family he had sent to Miami the previous year. He ascended quickly on the business side of The Herald, where his first job was inserting circulars into newspapers and loading them onto trucks. Beginning in 1972, Suarez spent 15 years at The Charlotte Observer, but he returned to Miami to help The Herald improve its coverage of Hispanic affairs in general and Cuban-American affairs in particular. In a previous attempt to attract Hispanic readers, The Herald had published an edition consisting of selected articles from The Herald translated into Spanish. The venture failed, scoffed at by many Miami Hispanics as condescending and especially resented by the city’s budding Cuban-American community, which considered The Herald insufficiently outraged by the Castro government. Suarez’s new publication had its own staff, providing original material in Spanish and producing a paper that was more in sync with the generally conservative anti-
Israel Hicks co-founded L.A.’s Ebony Repertory By Valerie J. Nelson Los Angeles Times
Israel Hicks, founding artistic director of Los Angeles’ Ebony Repertory Theatre who made theatrical history in Denver when he became the first to direct playwright August Wilson’s entire canon for the same company, has died. He was 66. Hicks, who had prostate cancer, died Saturday in Westchester County, N.Y., according to Ebony Repertory.
Callahan remained a priest after his expulsion from the Jesuit order, the Society of Jesus, in 1991, but the church barred him from acting as one. Known widely as Bill, he still sometimes used the honorifics “Reverend” and “Father.” He aggravated church officials during the American tour of Pope John Paul II in 1979 by imploring priests to refuse to help the pope in celebrating Mass. Callahan’s hope was that more lay women would then have to be enlisted to assist at the services. When the pope that year insisted that barring women from becoming priests was not a human rights issue, Callahan replied, “Perhaps this is not a human rights issue because women are not human or they do not have rights.” He told The Washington Post in 1989 that he was simply “following the example of Jesus, who was never willing to shut up.” In 1971, Callahan helped found the Center of Concern, an organization devoted to social justice issues. In 1975 he started Priests for Equality, to work for the ordination of women. He started
“He was a man of extraordinary vision, and founding this company was one of the highlights of Israel’s life,” said Wren Brown, a producer who started Ebony Repertory with Hicks in 2008. Ebony Repertory is the resident company of the Nate Holden Performing Arts Center in South Los Angeles. Its acclaimed inaugural production was “Two Trains Running,” a Wilson drama set in a 1960s ghetto diner in Pittsburgh — and directed by Hicks.
Castro views of Cuban Miami. As the face of the publication, Suarez was instrumental in helping persuade Latin residents of the city that El Nuevo Herald was a legitimate voice for them and not simply an extension of The Miami Herald, which many perceived as representing the interests of non-Hispanic white Miamians. The new paper created conflicts both within the newsroom and without. But Suarez, who eventually became president of The Miami Herald Publishing Co., managed to quell the disquiet among some Herald staff members, who felt that El Nuevo Herald was often intentionally working at cross purposes. “He was a very open guy, a very friendly guy,” said Mark Seibel, a former managing editor of The Herald who later, as director of the company’s international operations, reported to Suarez. “When we had a run-in on coverage, I never felt any pressure from him to do anything we hadn’t done. He was willing to give you the autonomy to do what you felt you needed to do.” Suarez retired in 1995 with the title of president emeritus. El Nuevo Herald now has a daily circulation of about 55,000 and a Sunday circulation of 78,000 and has the fastest-growing combined print and Web readership among Spanish-language dailies in the United States, according to the Audit Bureau of Circulations.
the Quixote Center in 1976 with Dolly Pomerleau, who became a work partner of his for many years. They married days before he died. The Quixote Center achieved particular prominence in its support of the leftist government of Nicaragua in the 1980s, a stance directly at odds with that of the Reagan administration. It raised more than $100 million in humanitarian aid for the Nicaraguan government. Other projects included printing religious books in which language it viewed as sexist, racist and homophobic was expunged. Callahan himself wrote “Noisy Contemplation: Deep Prayer for Busy People” (1982), which called God a “merry” sort who viewed humans as entertainment. In 1979, Jesuit leaders rebuked Callahan for his defiance of dogma, and by 1989 his Nicaraguan activities and liberal initiatives in the church, including a ministry for gay Catholics, had set off calls for his expulsion from the Jesuit order. He unsuccessfully fought the action, which he claimed was never explained. Callahan remained active at Quixote and continued to preach
to informal gatherings of dissident Catholics. William Reed Callahan was born on Sept. 5, 1931, in Scituate, Mass. His mother was a Unitarian and his father a Catholic. His mother died when he was 6 months old, and he was raised by paternal grandparents as a Catholic, Pomerleau said. He attended the Jesuit-run Boston College High School and after graduating joined the New England Province of the Society of Jesus in 1948. He had hoped to be an agronomist, but the Jesuits asked him to study physics because they needed physics professors in their universities. Callahan earned bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Boston College and a Ph.D. in physics from Johns Hopkins University in 1962. While pursuing the degree, he worked for NASA on weather satellites. He then moved to Connecticut to teach physics at Fairfield University, a Jesuit institution. He was ordained as a priest in 1965. In addition to his wife, he is survived by three brothers, Larry, John and Bob; and three sisters, Polly Alonso, Helen Demers and Christine DeVelis.

Redmond Continued from B1 Enrichment Wednesdays ran into a problem soon after planning began, when the state announced across-the-board 9 percent budget cuts. That meant Redmond schools would have to chop about $2.6 million from its 2010-11 budget. As part of the district’s cuts, it removed six non-class days from next year’s calendar. That, according to spokeswoman Stephanie Curtis, was the final straw delaying the enrichment Wednesdays. There would have been too much change in one year, Curtis said. “With the addition of the financial shortfall ... we just did not feel introducing enrichment Wednesdays was going to be a benefit to our district next year,” Curtis said. Still, the district hopes to launch the program by the 201112 school year. Staff will spend the next year planning for enrichment Wednesdays, superintendent Shay Mikalson said. “It’s something we’re committed to,” Mikalson said. “If we can implement it, we believe it’d be a positive ongoing professional development.” The enrichment Wednesday program will eventually be modeled after Choice Friday, which the district developed last year when it adopted a four-day school week to make up for a budget shortfall. The programs included
Wood stove Continued from B1 A seller can either hire someone to do this or take the old stove to a scrap metal facility or landfill and get a receipt saying it was disposed of properly. The old stoves can’t be resold. Although the removal requirement goes into effect next month, the state is still working on rules that will require people to notify DEQ that they have removed the stoves, and that will set fines for failing to do so. “We’re really focusing more on education and outreach,” Sakata said. Removing old stoves shouldn’t cause too much hardship on home sellers, said Bill Bellamy, with Coldwell Banker Dick Dodson Realty in Madras.

sports, tutoring, outdoor education, 4-H and Lego robotics. The district still hopes to take advantage of the former Choice Friday programs even though there will be no enrichment Wednesdays in the coming year. The volunteer group behind Choice Friday is now known as Taproot and is in discussions with the district to offer some alternative learning options in schools, Mikalson said. In the coming months, Taproot will meet with principals from every school to come up with a plan for individual buildings, Mikalson said. The group, for example, could bring an architect to talk about that career in a math class. Another school might request the group bring in reading tutors. Whatever the individual offerings, Mikalson hopes each school will average 10 hours of programs a month. If that happens, teachers could have more open time for professional training, Mikalson said. When teachers agreed to give up six non-class days, they lost some training time. Using Taproot could help the district and its teachers regain some of that lost time, while giving students more learning options, Mikalson said. “It’s trying to tap into the great resource we have in the community,” Mikalson said.

Hardly any of the homes built in the last decade have wood stoves, he said. And for those that do, in recent years, insurance companies have not been issuing policies unless the stoves have been certified, so many people have already replaced them. “Over the last five to 10 years, you kind of had this warning to people, through their insurance,” he said.

Tacoma sprawls along the south side of Commencement Bay, the Puget Sound harbor that made this city of 200,000 an industrial metropolis. Since the 1980s, an urban revitalization has reshaped Tacoma’s image and made it a popular tourist destination.

Washington’s second city wears a new face in the 21st century
By John Gottberg Anderson For The Bulletin
TACOMA — ot many years ago, western Washington’s second city was regarded as anything but a mecca for tourism. The community of about 200,000 people, a half hour’s drive south of Seattle, had a hardened reputation as a gritty blue-collar town with a high crime rate. Regular travelers passing through on Interstate 5 made jokes about “the Tacoma Aroma” that emanated from a paper mill on its industrial tide flats. One-twelfth of the world’s copper was refined at a smelter that contaminated miles of land with arsenic and lead; its monumental stack, reputed to be the world’s tallest at 564 feet, could be seen from far away. That is not the Tacoma of the 21st century.

‘D Tour’ back to Bend Film chronicles musician Pat Spurgeon’s quest for a kidney By David Jasper
Rogue Wave drummer Pat Spurgeon’s dialysis and hunt for a kidney transplant while keeping up with band duties is the subject of “D Tour,” winner of the Best Documentary Award at the 2009 BendFilm Festival. The film will screen Monday in Bend.
The Bulletin
Music, friendship and kidney failure are the focus of “D Tour,” winner of the 2009 BendFilm Festival’s award for Best Documentary, returning for a one-night engagement Monday at McMenamins Old St. Francis School in Bend. Jim Granato, the film’s director, producer, director of photography and co-editor, will be on hand to speak about the film (see “If you go” on Page C7), which follows drummer Pat Spurgeon of the rising indie rock band Rogue Wave in his quest to find a kidney donor even as he tries to maintain the band’s road schedule. In a phone interview, the 37-year-old filmmaker told The Bulletin that he became acquainted with Spurgeon in the mid ’90s, when they both lived in Bloomington, Ind.; Granato grew up there, and Spurgeon, six years his senior, played in local bands. “We both have roots in Indiana, where the film goes in and out of, but we didn’t become good friends until we ran into each

other in San Francisco,” Granato said. “We started hanging out, really becoming good friends, and started working on projects together. I had some knowledge of his first transplant, back in the early ’90s, but
I didn’t know very much about it,” he says, referring to the drummer’s earlier kidney transplant. Spurgeon’s first transplanted kidney is failing as the film starts. See BendFilm / C7
NORTHWEST TR AVE L Next week: Oregon’s Aurora Colony Change began in 1983, when historic Union Station was resurrected as a handsome U.S. Courthouse and the landmark Tacoma Dome arena was constructed. In the 1990s, the smelter closed and emission controls all but eliminated the paper-mill odor. The Museum District began to take shape with the completion of the handsome Washington State History Museum in 1996, followed by the Museum of Glass in 2002 and a new Tacoma Art Museum in 2003.

Teen plays naughty and nice on twin Facebook profiles Dear Abby: I have just learned that a friend’s 16-year-old daughter has two different Facebook profiles. One is a “nice” profile to which she has invited me, her family and friends from her days at a Christian academy. The other, which is pretty raw, she uses with her new “wild” friends from public high school. The first profile portrays her as the perfect student and daughter. The other includes explicit details about her sexual exploits and drinking parties. Should I keep my nose out of it or let her parents know about the dual identities? — Vigilant In Everett, Wash. Dear Vigilant: Ask yourself whether you would want to be apprised of your minor child’s drinking and sexual exploits or be kept in the dark, and you’ll have your answer. Dear Abby: My 5-year-old son, “Miles,” is passive, kind and a genuinely sweet kid. He has made friends with some neighborhood kids who are his age or a few years older. While watching them play I have noticed a few of the more aggressive boys tackle, push or kick him and even punch him. Afterward I asked Miles why he didn’t stick up for himself. He said he didn’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings. Obviously, I don’t want my son engaging in fighting or resorting to violence. However, I am torn as to whether I should intervene. I have talked to Miles about how friends should treat each other. Should I step in to correct the other child? Should I speak to the other parents? Or do I allow my son to work it out on his own? — Helicopter Mom Dear Mom: If you step in and “correct” the other boys, it will make your son appear weak. If you speak to their parents, it will make those boys resent your child. If Miles were my son, I would sign him up for activities where he will be part of a team. It will give him self-confidence,
DEAR ABBY help to improve his athletic skills, make him more physically fit and introduce him to children in addition to this particular group. Dear Abby: I was widowed a year ago and joined a support group for widows and widowers. (I am 50 years young.) Through this group I met a gentleman, “Robert,” who lost his wife two years ago. We became friends and have since fallen in love. I would like to think we have a future together. Recently, I have been feeling guilty about our relationship, as though I am “cheating” on my late husband, and I’m wondering if this is normal. Should I keep these feelings to myself or discuss them with Robert? Should I go to counseling? Perhaps the one-year anniversary of my husband’s death has brought out these feelings. I don’t want to hurt Robert or push him away by bringing this up if this is a normal phase most widows go through. — Starting Over In Virginia Beach, Va. Dear Starting Over: If you are not completely over the death of your husband, then your feelings of guilt are understandable. When they occur, please remind yourself that you lived up to your wedding pledge “until death do you part.” Because you and Robert are part of a support group, this is a subject it might be helpful to raise with the other members. As for discussing it with Robert, I recommend that you do. Far from pushing you apart, it may bring you closer. And if your feelings of guilt persist, by all means discuss them with a counselor because you have every right to be happy.

Best bets for television this week By Chuck Barney Contra Costa Times
“THE CLOSER” — The Season 6 opener of basic cable’s most popular drama finds Brenda (Kyra Sedgwick) in a cranky mood. She and her team of LAPD detectives have just moved into their brand new high-tech headquarters, but all the gadgets and gizmos are proving to be a major hassle. Meanwhile, there’s an internal struggle brewing over who will become the next police chief and, oh yes, a few murders to solve. 9 p.m. Monday, TNT.
Other bets: TONIGHT: Agatha Christie’s most famous spell-binder, “Murder on the Orient Express,” gets the remake treatment in a new “Masterpiece Mystery!” presentation. David Suchet shines as Hercule Poirot, who probes the death of an American businessman aboard a London-bound train. 9 p.m., PBS. TONIGHT: “The Glades” is a new drama series that has Matt Passmore playing a former Chicago homicide detective who relocates to a beautiful and sleepy Florida town. Of course, he soon learns that it’s not as idyllic as it seems. 10 p.m., A&E. TONIGHT: Have a sweet tooth? You’ll definitely want to check out “Kid in a Candy Store.” It’s a new series that sends host Adam Gertler across the country in search of outrageous goodies. We’re drooling already. 10:30 p.m., Food Network. MONDAY: “A Small Act” is an inspiring documentary that tells how Swedish school teacher Hilde Black began donating $15 a month to help sponsor young Kenyan student Chris Mburu. Her humble gift ultimately helped to deliver Mburu out of poverty
Fast chat with ‘Rizzoli & Isles’ star Harmon By Frank Lovece Newsday
Angie Harmon has proved there’s dramatic life after modeling and “Baywatch Nights”: The Texas-reared beauty went almost immediately from cheesecake on the beach to the FBI in L.A., co-starring in the short-lived ABC series “C-16: FBI.” Then came her best-remembered stint, as Assistant District Attorney Abbie Carmichael on “Law & Order.” But after playing Frankie Muniz’s CIA handler in “Agent Cody Banks” (2003), movies didn’t seem to beckon further. And once she and former New York Giants cornerback Jason Sehorn started having kids, and into Harvard Law School. He went on to become a United Nations human rights advocate. 9 p.m., HBO. MONDAY: Angie Harmon returns to series television in “Rizzoli & Isles.” She plays a hard-nosed detective who teams with her best friend and medical examiner (Sasha Alexander) to solve crimes. First up: the grisly slaying of a wealthy couple. 10 p.m., TNT. TUESDAY: The new drama “Covert Affairs” is like “Alias” without the annoying mythology. Piper Perabo stars as a young CIA agent who kicks a lot of badguy butt. It debuts immediately after the Season 2 premiere of “White Collar.” 10 p.m., USA. WEDNESDAY: Seth Meyers hosts the 18th annual “Espy Awards,” the event that heaps more praise and more glittery trophies on sports stars — as if they really need it. 9 p.m., ESPN WEDNESDAY: The TV crime wave continues just as “Psych” kicks off its fifth season. The opener has Shawn and Gus (James Roday, Dule Hill) look-
the regularity of TV work again sounded promising. Now, Harmon stars as Boston police detective Jane Rizzoli alongside Sasha Alexander’s sleuthing medical examiner Maura Isles in TNT’s “Rizzoli & Isles,” premiering Monday. You seem to play a lot of people in law enforcement.
Q: A: Q: A:
I know, don’t I? What is it about you that seems “law enforce-y”? I’m not sure. I think a lot of it has to do with my features fitting for the drama side of the entertainment world. Not just drama, but it’s that you play but cops, prosecutors ... It’s not like you’ve got a lot of dramatic char-
Q: A:
ing for the missing daughter of a Chinese mob boss. 10 p.m., USA. THURSDAY: Patricia Arquette, eat your heart out. “Mary Knows Best” is a series that follows a real psychic — Mary Occhino — and her family as they do the things psychics do. But can she predict what kind of ratings the show will get? 9 p.m., Syfy. FRIDAY: Patricia Richardson, LeVar Burton and Kellie Martin star in “The Jensen Project.” It’s a TV movie about brainy researchers working to make the world a better place. 9 p.m., NBC. SATURDAY: The low-budget TV film, “Goblin,” could be good, schlocky fun — or a huge waste of time. It’s about a creepy creature bent on taking a baby from an unsuspecting family. Naturally, it’s up to a teenage girl to take him on. 9 p.m., Syfy.
Q: A: Q:
Or a model. No, I’ve already done that. That’s OK! Originally, the show was called “Rizzoli,” although the character of Isles was there from the start. You were the first person cast. How did the title change? “Rizzoli & Isles” is just a lot catchier than “Rizzoli.” And it’s a “Cagney & Lacey” thing — showing two women who are friends, who are in it together and working in a man’s world.

C4 Sunday, July 11, 2010 • THE BULLETIN
Tacoma Continued from C1 A beautiful new convention center opened in 2004. Major hotels, fine-dining restaurants and a facelift for the city’s Theater District became a part of the revitalization. Mount Rainier, highest peak in the Cascade Range, looms over the city to the east. To the west, the beautiful Tacoma Narrows Bridge links Tacoma to the Kitsap Peninsula. All in all, Tacoma is a worthy rival to Seattle for urban activities in the Puget Sound area. Two full days are barely enough time to capture the flavor of the city, but they are sufficient for taking in the highlights. So here are my suggestions. Drive north into Tacoma via the Interstate 5 corridor. Arrive in the early evening, after a 5½-hour drive (if you don’t stop along the way) from Bend. Have a relaxing dinner at one of the fine seafood restaurants overlooking Commencement Bay (Harbor Lights has been a seaside landmark since 1959) and get an early bedtime.
Day 1: Morning Much of the city’s growth may be credited to the prominence of renowned glass artist Dale Chihuly. From the Bellagio Hotel in Las Vegas to the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, Chihuly’s fanciful glass work, ranging in concept from seashells to Native American basketry, has brought him to international prominence. But even as his star has risen around the world, he is proud to declare that he was born and raised in Tacoma. Chihuly’s work is seemingly ubiquitous throughout the Museum District, where you’ll focus your first day’s sightseeing. Begin at Union Station. Now a federal courthouse, it was built in 1910 and served as Tacoma’s main rail depot until 1983. Walk through the doors off Pacific Avenue — you’ll have to pass through a security screening, but you won’t pay a dime — to view five separate Chihuly works. Among them, the “End of the Day Chandelier” hangs from the 90-foot dome ceiling, and the butterfly elements of the “Monarch Window” capture the morning sun as it rises over Mount Rainier. Next, follow signs about one block south to the Bridge of Glass. Spanning Interstate 705 and railroad tracks, linking downtown Tacoma to the city’s waterfront, this 500-foot-long pedestrian bridge is essential viewing for any Chihuly fan. In dedicating the structure in 2002, the artist said he conceived it as “the gateway that welcomes people to Tacoma … something unique in the world, something that has a lot of color, a joyous experience, night or day.” The bridge has three sections. At the west end, nearest downtown, 2,364 separate marine-inspired glass objects comprise the ceiling of the Seaform Pavilion. In the center are two stunning, 40-foot-tall, glacial-blue pillars known as the Crystal Towers. At

The Tacoma Narrows Bridge spans Puget Sound, linking the city of Tacoma to the Kitsap Peninsula. It actually consists of two parallel bridges that replaced “Galloping Gertie,” which collapsed during a windstorm in 1940 barely four months after its construction. upon fantastical drawings by elementary-school children. The museum store sells outstanding glass art, along with books and craft items. And Gallucci’s Glass Café serves excellent light meals to hungry museum patrons.
Day 1: Afternoon and evening
Fort Nisqually is a “living history museum” that represents a 19thcentury Hudson’s Bay Company fur-trading post. Although has stood in Point Defiance Park only since 1940, two of its buildings, moved from the fort’s original location, were constructed in the 1850s. the east end is the Venetian Wall, featuring 109 blown-glass works inspired by Chihuly’s residence on the Italian island of Murano, famed for glass-making since the 13th century. Keep an eye open everywhere for tiny glass cherubs, representing Cupid, the Roman god of love. Beside Foss Waterway, a refurbished harbor inlet, steps and ramps weave around a series of fountains to the Museum of Glass. (Elevators are also available.) The museum opens at 10 a.m. daily (noon on Sundays) through the summer months. Designed by famed architect Arthur Erickson, this $48 million showcase of contemporary glass art combines galleries, a theater and an art studio. There’s also a “hot shop” contained within a giant, cone-shaped amphitheater, 90 feet high, that has rapidly become an urban icon. In the hot shop, the general public is able to view the entire
glass-art creation process from start to finish. As a small team of studio artists blow and shape molten glass into works of art, a narrator describes each step to the audience of museum visitors, half of whom are seated and half of whom are gazing over the railing of a walk-around mezzanine. Visiting artists share their knowledge and observations as they direct the hot-shot team in creating their own work. Because, in the hot shop, I’ve had an opportunity to watch the creation process, the objects I subsequently see in the galleries become more than just pretty things to ogle. Exhibits are presented on a rotating basis, typically for a year or longer. Current exhibits include the work of American Indian artist Preston Singletary, who has adapted traditional Tlingit Indian motifs to glass, and “Kids Design Glass,” presenting whimsical works based

After lunch, you’ll want to return across the Bridge of Glass to the Washington State History Museum (open every day but Monday in summer). Its central exhibit is The Great Hall of Washington History, which traces the state’s heritage from prehistory to the 21st century. Lifesize models and recorded voices help to bring to life the exhibits, which include a Salish Indian plank house, an early Northern Pacific Railroad car, lumber-mill equipment and a 42-foot hydroelectric tower. An upper floor has a children’s history-learning lab, an exten-

When I visited last month, the museum offered an intriguing temporary exhibit about the ongoing search for Sasquatch, or Bigfoot, the legendary man-ape said by some to walk the forests of the Northwest. Starting Aug. 7, the museum will present an exhibit on the early-20th-century Arts and Crafts movement. Back down Pacific Avenue, north of Union Station, is the Tacoma Art Museum, also known as TAC, which moved into its
new quarters in 2003 after more than three decades in an old bank building. Designed by architect Antoine Predock, the new TAC has been acclaimed for atrium-style openness that welcomes the outside in. Continued next page

Day 2: Morning At its north end, Tacoma is blessed with one of the great urban parks in the United States. Established in 1905, Point Defiance Park extends into Puget Sound like a shark’s fin, between Vashon Island and the Kitsap Peninsula. Its 702 mostly wooded acres are served by a five-mile drive that on Saturdays and Sundays, until 1 p.m., is closed to motorized traffic (to allow walkers, runners and bicyclists to travel unimpeded). The drive winds past saltwater beaches, a small marina with boat rentals, lush gardens, a historic logging exhibit (Camp 66), and 14 miles of hiking trails. On cloud-free mornings, the dramatic cone of Mount Rainier can be seen rising to the east over Commencement Bay, Tacoma’s harbor. The park’s centerpiece is the Point Defiance Zoo and Aquarium. Try to arrive soon after the 8:30 a.m. summer opening time. The animals are usually much more active at this hour than they will be later, when the sun is at its peak. This isn’t a large zoo, but it’s a well-designed one that slopes gently down a northeast-facing hillside. There are six separate staging areas, including a Kids’ Zone, North and South Pacific aquariums, and an outdoor theater where a “Wild Wonders” presentation is offered several times each day. Rocky Shores highlights marine mammals; Arctic Tundra features large Alaskan land animals; and the Asian Forest Sanctuary is home to elephants, Sumatran tigers, clouded leopards, gibbons and more. It’s not hard to while away two to three hours here. You may want to grab an early lunch at the zoo’s Plaza Café before continuing across the park to the Fort Nisqually Living History Museum. A reconstructed 19th-century Hudson’s Bay Co. fur-trading post, Fort Nisqually has stood in Point Defiance Park since 1940. Two of the buildings — the Granary (1850) and the Factor’s House (1855) — are original. Costumed docents in period dress stay in character as shopkeepers, blacksmiths, servants and others, introducing visitors to the lifestyle of men and women who turned the fort from a center for trade to the hub of a large agricultural enterprise.

From previous page Chihuly is well represented. Indeed, Tacoma displays more of his work than any other city in the world. Dozens of original glass works are presented in an alcove that rises, ramp-like, from the lobby to the first of several galleries. Here are shown paintings from the TAC’s permanent collection, including works by Degas, Renoir, Pissarro, Gilbert Stuart and Jacob Lawrence. A major current exhibit, scheduled until February 2011, follows the spread of impressionism from Europe to the Pacific Northwest. Just ended was “The Secret Language of Animals,” the centerpiece of which was artist Scott Fife’s 10-foot-tall cardboard dog, “Leroy, the Big Pup.” Leroy remains a valued work in the permanent collection. The TAC is the starting point for a 12-stop “Ear for Art” selfguided cell-phone tour (dial 888411-4220) narrated by none other than Dale Chihuly himself. It begins at the art museum, continues to Union Station and the Bridge of Glass, and continues to the nearby library of the University of Washington-Tacoma. It concludes at the Swiss Pub, a popular off-campus watering hole that’s been around since 1913. The master himself, who has loaned eight Venetian vases for the pub to display, may have tipped a couple back here. If you’ve already heard the dinner bell, you might consider smoked-salmon fettuccine at The Swiss. But for something a bit more elegant, consider either the Pacific Grill or the fusion-style Indochine Asian Dining Lounge. The former is an elegant steakand-seafood restaurant with a locally popular Thursday night “noodle bar.” Indochine expands upon Southeast Asian cuisine to offer plates like Black Sea paella and seared Yin Yang ahi rubbed in chili paste. While you’re in the downtown area, before or after dinner, be sure to check out the Hotel Murano, which is named for the famed Venetian glass town. Opened in January 2008, the elegantly understated Murano is a museum in its own right. Works by a variety of internationally famed glass artists adorn the hotel from the lobby to Bite restaurant to the guest-room corridors, where the creativity of a different individual is showcased on each of the 22 floors.

A 1916 Ford Model N stands center stage, beneath a neon Mobilgas flying horse, at the Lemay America’s Car Museum in Tacoma. The museum, said to own the world’s largest private car collection, displays about 350 vehicles at any one time, leaving thousands in storage.
“Leroy, the Big Pup,” by artist Scott Fife, is a 10-foot-tall cardboard sculpture on display at the Tacoma Art Museum. posite Fort Nisqually, you can easily see the Tacoma Narrows Bridge about three miles distant. Twin suspension bridges — the westbound span was built in 1950, the eastbound stretch in 2007 — link Tacoma with the Kitsap Peninsula via state Highway 16. The original Narrows bridge opened in July 1940 but collapsed during high winds four months later. The failure of this bridge, known ever since as “Galloping Gertie,” profoundly affected engineering techniques in long-span construction around the world. You can reach state Highway 16 after leaving Point Defiance Park by following Pearl Street south. Unless you want to drive across the bridge, turn east here. Following state Highway 16 to Interstate 5 South, and continue four exits (to Exit 127) before turning east again on state Highway 512. At Pacific Avenue, turn south and follow signs to the LeMay museum. The remarkable collection at the LeMay America’s Car Museum features well over 2,000 vintage and specialty vehicles from the late 19th century to
the early 21st. Amassed by the late Harold LeMay and his widow, Nancy LeMay, this is considered the largest privately owned vehicle collection in the world. Here you’ll see Model Ts, Depression-era coupes, circa-1970 muscle cars, and the pace car from the 2001 Daytona 500 race that took the life of driver Dale Earnhardt. Guided tours begin on the hour, daily from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., exploring the former Marymount Academy, a 1923 Catholic boys’ military school whose facilities have been converted to exhibit space. Although only 350 or so cars may be seen at any one time, ground has been broken on a second museum that is scheduled to open late next year in downtown Tacoma, near the Tacoma Dome. That will make this out-of-the-way museum much easier for visitors to find; nevertheless, it is already a highly worthwhile detour. Tacoma’s Theater District, a

Before dining at the charming and secluded Over the Moon Café, check the playbill at the Broadway Center for the Performing Arts. Incorporating three facilities — the renovated and historic Pantages and Rialto theaters (both opened in 1918), as well as the Theatre on the Square — the Broadway Center offers a year-round schedule of concerts, stage productions and other events. Tacoma’s Pantages Theater has a Bend connection. It was built during the years of World War I by Greek immigrant Alexander Pantages with financial assistance from his dancer
mistress, “Klondike Kate” Rockwell. Her name is well-known in Central Oregon; after Pantages left her, Rockwell moved to Bend, where she lived from the 1920s to the late 1940s. Today, on Franklin Avenue, a historical marker designates the site of her homestead. John Gottberg Anderson can be reached at janderson@ bendbulletin.com.

Hey, wedding guests: Get it together, OK? By Sheba R. Wheeler The Denver Post
Todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bride and groom have more to worry about than a sexually explicit toast, overbearing in-laws and someone else wearing all white. Bad guests who overshare on social media networking sites have left couples feeling exposed. Posting photos online without permission is the biggest digital wedding gripe of brides who responded to a WeddingChannel. com poll, with 40 percent citing it. Poor behaviors run the gamut from tweeting an RSVP and doling out minute-by-minute status updates, to complaining about the food, accidently announcing an engagement or alerting friends, co-workers and family members who werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t invited. Even without technical gaffes, wedding guests slip up when it comes to responding to invitations, handling gifts or proper dress, wedding planners say. Coloradoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s laid-back attitude has made more than one out-ofstate guest believe it was appropriate to wear jeans or a Hawaiian shirt to an evening wedding despite an invitation that clearly stated â&#x20AC;&#x153;formal wear,â&#x20AC;? says wedding planner Kerri Butler, who
runs Touch of Bliss in Denver. Sometimes people just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pay attention. During a buffet reception for 250, Butler noticed guests getting seconds before all the tables had been allowed to visit the buffet. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They had to go say, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sorry, but could you please wait,â&#x20AC;? says Butler. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They were very apologetic and said they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t observe what else was happening in the room.â&#x20AC;? Other times, a lack of respect and consideration is evident. Julie Gambrell of Classic Creations wedding planning and design in Highlands Ranch said that at a recent event, the bride still didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know whether specific guests were coming. Gambrell has had to track down guests leaving a reception and ask them to return items such as chair sashes or centerpieces rented from a florist. When a table number was discovered inside a bridesmaidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s purse, the would-be culprit explained she just wanted a keepsake. Even baskets in the bathroom filled with amenities such as hairspray, toothpaste, tissues and deodorant have disappeared.

For one night only, ‘cougar’ town By Rex W. Huppke Chicago Tribune
CHICAGO — Rich Gosse has closely studied the evolution of America’s cougars, but now he foresees a crisis: “There just aren’t enough cougars to go around.” Once forced to live in relative seclusion, older women who desire younger men are now a red-hot commodity on the dating market. Gosse will roundup hundreds of self-professed Chicago-area cougars Saturday night in Rosemont, Ill., for the National Cougar Convention (cougarevents.com). “A year or two ago, a young guy would never tell anybody he was dating a woman old enough
‘D Tour’ Continued from C1 Friends and supporters, including fellow musicians Ben Gibbard of Death Cab for Cutie and Nada Surf, lend support in the film, which features plenty of live music, as well as ups and downs that come with mounting medical costs and the search for a viable kidney donor. When Spurgeon’s donated kidney began failing and he began undergoing dialysis again, he called Granato. “Initially, it was supposed to be a little video about the actual dialysis” — peritoneal dialysis — “which is the type of dialysis he had used, that sort of mobilized him and made him independent of going to clinics, and he was really kind of for it,” Granato said. That kernel of an idea grew into a “huge and sort of complicated, very emotional story,” Granato said. It wasn’t the first film Granato had made or been involved in, but at 99 minutes, it’s the first feature-length project he’s ever completed. Previously, “there were a lot of short films that no one’s ever really seen.” Granato’s something of a musician himself, and he and Spurgeon have recorded together in the past. Along with hearing Rogue Wave’s music, the movie audience is treated to some of Spurgeon’s own music, via the film’s score.
to be his mother,” said Gosse, a dating expert and organizer of the convention “But around the end of 2009, we started getting tons and tons of guys at cougar parties, and now we can’t find enough women.” Gosse has organized older women/younger men parties for more than three decades. But the events caught fire only recently, with the help of Hollywood and the pop-culture popularization of the term “cougar.” “It kind of started with ‘Sex and the City’ and Kim Cattrall, and then Madonna dating younger guys, and then when Demi (Moore) married Ashton Kutcher it really exploded,” Gosse said.
If you go What: Screening of “D Tour” When: 8:30 p.m. Monday Where: McMenamins Old St. Francis School, 700 N.W. Bond St., Bend Cost: $8, $6 for BendFilm members Contact: www.bendfilm.org
“Pat has got, like, I’m not kidding, a thousand cassette tapes of music that he’s recorded over 10, 15 years,” Granato said. It was “a real treat to delve into this huge catalog of stuff that I’ve had on a CD from Pat.” He didn’t tell Spurgeon what tunes he was using, either: “I surprised him later on, when sequences were coming together, and he approved. “I think that organic process was kind of fun, and really lends itself to the movie,” Granato said. All in all, the film was “an awesome collaboration” for him. Of course, given his friend’s failing kidney, the project was difficult at times for the filmmaker. “These guys, not only Pat, but his band mates and other folks involved, were friends and not just subjects, so things were a little tough to try and deal with and show in the most respectful ways you can, because all these people are going to see this film,” he said.
“Being a cougar just means being attractive, being a dynamo, attracting men of all ages, being friendly,” Weiner said. Gosse will speak at the convention, presenting his theory of supply-and-demand romance. He says young women tend to look for older, more mature, more financially stable men. That leaves young men with slim pickings in their own age group. Older women, on the other hand, find men their own age to be, as Gosse calls them, “leftovers” — men with all manner of faults. Thus, to some, young man plus older woman equals perfect match.
Spurgeon is tending to Rogue Wave business, but he may be joining Granato at McMenamins by way of Skype, a Voice Over Internet Protocol. Spurgeon is happy with the completed film and its message about the importance of organ donation. “We just did a screening last night in Portland, and that question was asked (of) him, so I can quote him fresh here, saying that he was very pleased,” Granato said. “He feels like, what we set out to do, we’ve accomplished 10, 20, 30,000 times over.” At Granato’s request, we’re not going to give away the outcome of Spurgeon’s medical pursuit, but we can say that filmmaker Granato is not done with the “D Tour.” After making the film festival rounds, Granato is now seeking theater distribution for “D Tour.” “It’s by far the hardest phase of the filmmaking process: distributorship,” he said. “You’ve got to get your movie out there. I work on it every day, trying to come up with new strategies. “What I’m trying to do now is see if there is a life out there in the independent cinemas, and to book it, and bring people of interest from the regional organ procurement organizations, just to kind of keep that message brewing and going. It’s a lot of work.” David Jasper can be reached at 541-383-0349 or djasper@bendbulletin.com.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Zero in on what you want. Friends also might have strong ideas. Find a way of making both possible. Drop the word “no” or “can’t” from your vocabulary. You
might worry about where the funds will come from. Trust that they will come, if your desire is reasonable. Tonight: The ringmaster of events. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH If you have been longing to take the lead at work or perhaps among your crowd of friends, an opportunity will occur in the near future to do so. By accepting a primary role, you also are accepting all the responsibility that comes with leadership. Tonight: Out and about. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH Assuming a lesser role could serve you well. That stance doesn’t imply that you aren’t important. It implies that you are secure. Let others air out what they feel and think. You can integrate ideas well. Use that skill. Tonight: Follow your instincts. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHHH Circle the wagons and join your friends. A discussion could clear the air and lead to a new beginning. Someone you meet could be quite significant to your life’s history. Fun, friendship and new opportunities mix well. Tonight: Where the action is. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH You might want to take the initiative with someone. As hard as it might be to believe, unless you do something, there is a strong chance you will never hear from this person. Don’t stand on ceremony if you miss him or her. Tonight: A force to be dealt with. Decide what you want first. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Your inquisitive nature opens many doors. You are perhaps
more inclined to look at issues now, when you are not triggered. Make calls; relax your mind. Take a day trip or join a friend halfway between where you two live. Tonight: Try something different. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH A partner decides that he or she needs to change the airwaves between you. Let go of what was, and be open to a new type of liaison or a less difficult relationship. This person is building a stronger, better bond. How nice! Tonight: Go with a suggestion. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Others might not mean to challenge you, but they do an excellent job of it. Loosen up and let go of needing to have things tumble your way. Let others dominate, which they need to do. Remain light and easy. Tonight: Just don’t be alone. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Put on your dancing shoes or go for a game of racquetball. Though you are mercurial, you need to get enough exercise so your nerves don’t become fried. Find a favorite hobby. Tonight: Do for yourself. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH Let others get to know the real you. Being authentic is more likely right now. Others might be startled, but once they relax, they will enjoy the person they get to know. A child or a new person could be extremely drawn to you. Tonight: So what if tomorrow is Monday? © 2009 by King Features Syndicate

The bus doctor, averting countless vacation disasters By Monica Hesse WASHINGTON — The height of summer is the height of bus season in Washington; they come in droves, beasts of chrome and reclining plush seats, swarming the city streets like some biblical plague, whatever would come after locusts and frogs. During peak months, as many as a thousand tourist buses are in Washington on a given day, says the American Bus Association (ABA), which tracks this sort of thing. The buses break down. There are a million and one things that can go wrong with a bus. You got your dead batteries, busted water hoses, busted belts, busted starters. Tires go. Alternators go. Air conditioners go, and that’s a bigger problem than it once was. “Yes, ma’am. Twenty years ago the buses had windows that opened. But now they don’t. You take a bus and you set it outside in the heat, it’s going to hit 140 degrees inside within an hour.” Here is a man of great wisdom. Here is a trim man with a prickly mustache, graying buzz cut and a pleasant twang. He wears navy work pants. He has a shirt with an embroidered name tag. On a recent sizzling morning, he pilots his repair truck across the 14th Street Bridge, bumperto-bumper traffic, a cinnamonscented air freshener and a box of toothpicks on the dash. This man knows about what can go wrong with buses, and why, and how long it’s going to take to get them fixed. He knows the migratory patterns of the nation’s tourists — how June means school kids in matching T-shirts, how August is Canadians, how seniors roll through in September, and October brings the Southerners passing through on their way to Vermont foliage. He knows the companies: Spirit Tours, Wagon Tours, Superior Tours, Executive Coach, Martz, Quick’s, Conestoga, Scene America — and where you’re likely to find the coaches parked. He knows this because he is sometimes the only thing that stands between tourists and a ruined vacation spent stranded by the road instead of strolling through the Smithsonian thinking that the Hope Diamond is less impressive than they thought it would be. He is Bryan Cebula, Bus Doctor. What happened was that the high school students from California were out here on their East Coast class trip, the kind that includes presidential memorials and snow-globe souvenirs, and irritable chaperones. Today was Manassas, Va. The driver of the charter bus, Thaddeus Hargrove, had taken the passengers there and dropped them off. He planned to set off to Walmart to pick up a few things
while the kids were seeing the battlefield. Only the bus wouldn’t start. Forty-five minutes later when the group came back, the chaperone said, “You’re back from Walmart already?” and Hargrove said, “Man, I never left.” Hargrove got another bus to come pick up the kids — they still had to hit Washington National Cathedral — then rustled up a phone number that he’d kept on hand for an occasion such as this, a phone number passed between bus drivers throughout the Washington region. The Bus Doctor cometh. Cebula fixed the problem — the starter — in Manassas, but warned Hargrove that it would probably fritz out again if it wasn’t replaced soon. He went to buy the new part, and they arranged to meet in Arlington. Now, the bus sits under a tree in front of the Pentagon City shopping mall. Ahead of him, Cebula, 51, has parked his truck — big, white, a spare generator and air compressor in the back — which says “BUS DOCTOR” in block letters. There’s a cartoon rendition of Cebula wearing a lab coat and stethoscope, painted on the truck’s side. The Bus Doctor springs open an access panel toward the rear of the coach. He’s diagnosed the problem (the starter), but can’t fix it until the bus has cooled down. He leaves the access panel open to help that process along, then tells Hargrove to go grab a coffee. Cooling could take as much as an hour; Cebula clambers back into his truck and heads to Capitol Hill for another job. This is the life of the Bus Doctor, the one-man operation Cebula runs out of his home in Manassas, where he’s lived his whole life, and his big white truck. If he’s not on his way to a job, then he’s waiting around for one, patrolling the motor-coach hot spots: the Capitol, the Mall and Arlington National Cemetery, where the buses stand shoulder to shoulder and the drivers shoot the breeze while they wait for their tour groups to return. “I don’t want to sound stupid and say I like the adrenaline,” Cebula says. “But I do like the rush of helping people.” He can fix nothing for days, then five or six in a row. His best year, he fixed 1,300 buses, almost all in the warmer months. Things don’t break down as much in the winter. He’s been doing this type of work since he was about 16, when he got an after-school job washing buses for Colonial Transit. He worked up to changing tires, then graduated from high school and went to diesel school to learn big-vehicle mechanics. Met his wife, Marion, in the office of a bus company; she’s now a CPA for the federal government.

The Capitol Hill job turns into a two-fer. The Department of Transportation has set up a checkpoint, and officers are waylaying buses that don’t pass on-site safety inspections. Two frazzled-looking drivers stand by their coaches, clutching the tickets that describe the mechanical problems. Cebula glances at the papers before slipping neatly under the first bus. A quick brake adjustment. The second may or may not be broken after all. Officers wondered if a tie rod was doing something it wasn’t supposed to be doing; the driver, who is piloting a group of Chinese tourists, says the bus is just a brand-new model, behaving exactly the way it should. Cebula assesses the situation, agrees with the driver. “That’s why we called him,” says Oscar Garibay, one of the officers. “Everybody knows the Doctor. He’s the final authority.” On a different day than the Capitol Hill job, the Bus Doctor
is again back at Pentagon City. He’d been driving past when he spotted a couple of drivers he knows standing in front of the Ritz-Carlton hotel: Warren Knott, whom everybody calls Preacher Man, and L.A. Johnson, whom everybody calls Quickdraw. The three men chat awhile about the issues of driving a bus today. Later, the breeze having officially been shot, the Bus Doctor gets back in his truck to take one more spin by Arlington and see if there’s any business to be had. He starts to pull away, but Preacher Man and Quickdraw call after him. There’s a driver back there who has something wrong with his door. It won’t open from the inside. Cebula grabs a ball-peen hammer and goes off to see the problem. “He’s fixed all of us at one time or another,” Preacher Man says, looking on. “He’s the best. If he can’t fix it, it don’t need to be fixed.”

WCL BASEBALL Early scoring helps Elks hold off Bells Behind a three-run home run in the first inning by Andy Hunter, the Bend Elks jumped on Bellingham early en route to a 9-6 victory in West Coast League baseball action at Vince Genna Stadium on Saturday. Hunter drove in Stephen Halcomb and Tommy Richards to get the Elks on the board in the first before yielding a run to Bellingham in the top of the fifth to make the score 3-1. But Bend got the bats going once again in the bottom of the inning with five runs off five hits. The Bells scored four runs in the top of the ninth, but the Elks held off the rally. Joey Donofrio took the victory on the mound for the Elks, giving up just one earned run to go with three strikeouts. Graham Rodriguez got the save for Bend. Hunter finished the night hitting three for four, while teammate Adam Norton hit two for three with three RBIs. Stephen Halcomb, Tommy Richards and Kerry Jenkins each added two hits for Bend (20-7 WCL). Bend will conclude its three-game home series with Bellingham today starting at 5:05 p.m. — Bulletin staff report

Hundreds run at Smith Rock Sunrise Summer Classic 5K, 10K and half marathon draw more than 700 competitors Bulletin staff report TERREBONNE — More than 700 runners and walkers took part Saturday in the 2010 Smith Rock Sunrise Summer Classic. The annual event featured a half marathon. “That’s the most amount of participants we have had. We were at 525 last year,” said race director Scott Douglass.
“It was a great morning at Smith Rock State Park.” In a race that started in relatively cool temperatures at 6:15 a.m., nearly 350 runners followed the paved 13.1-mile course through the scenic Terrebonne countryside near Smith Rock State Park. The Smith Rock event also included races of 5 and 10 kilometers, and a fun run
for youngsters. Ian Sharman, 29, of San Jose, Calif., won the half marathon in a time of 1 hour, 18 minutes, 5 seconds. Bend’s Mike Olson, 33, was runner-up, finishing in a time of 1:19:40. Third-place finisher Damian Hill, 27, of Portland, cruised in just nine seconds behind Olson (1:19:49). The first female finisher was Nicolette Bilello, 35, of Bend, whose winning time was 1:31:09. Redmond’s Amy Rollins, 34, finished second in 1:35:31. Nicole Pearson, 29, of Crooked River Ranch, finished third (1:36:59). Men’s and women’s winners in the 10K

ot a lot of golf tournaments begin with “Gimme 10 on No. 7 to win.” Then again, not a lot of golf tournaments are like the Prineville Invitational. The Invitational, which at 55 years is the second-oldest golf tournament in Central Oregon, is an annual pro-am event attracting some of the best club professionals from around the Pacific Northwest to Prineville Golf Club. But that is not what makes the tournament unique. I got a taste of what makes it different this past Friday night at the tournamentopening “horse race.” Pari-mutuel betting, a cart loaded with a keg of beer, and a first hole that took 45 minutes to play were just a few of the features of the horse race. Oh, and
ZACK HALL about 100 or so raucous Prineville members to root the pros on. It will probably be the second-largest crowd to watch a golf tournament in Central Oregon this year, trailing only the Jeld-Wen Tradition. Tom MacDonald, a 63-year-old retired U.S. Air Force pilot who grew up in Prineville and has been a member at the city’s nine-hole golf facility since 1977, described the Invitational as “a real long cocktail party.” See Golf / D5
Bend women in contention at Mid-Am POWELL BUTTE — A pair of Bend women are within five shots of the lead after Saturday’s first round of the 36-hole Oregon Mid-Amateur Championship. Bend’s Amy Mombert shot a 3-overpar 75 and stands in third place at the Club at Brasada Ranch. That trails Brie Stone, of Veneta, by four strokes. Rosie Cook, of Bend, is in fourth place after shooting a 4-over 76. Kasey Young, of Vancouver, Wash., raced out to a four-stroke lead in the men’s draw of the Mid-Am. Young shot a 6-under 66 Saturday to tie Brasada’s competitive course record. Portland’s Chad Rusek, Newberg’s Thomas Greller, Medford’s Glen Clark,
and Springfield’s Larry Watts each shot 2-under 70 to tie for second place. Bend’s Jon Walker is in sixth place at 1 under, and Ryan Roskowski and Kim Schwenke, both of Bend, are in a sixway tie for seventh place at even par. The Oregon Mid-Amateur’s field is limited to the best amateur golfers age 25 and older. The final round will begin today at 7:30 a.m. The women’s leaders are scheduled to tee off around 9:30 a.m. and the men’s leaders are expected to tee off at about 2:30 p.m. Spectators are welcome, and admission is free. — Bulletin staff report

I B Basketball • Leunen has quiet night for Rockets: Former Redmond High and University of Oregon star Maarty Leunen scored four points and had four rebounds for the Houston Rockets in an 87-78 win over the Dallas Mavericks in an NBA Summer League game in Las Vegas on Saturday night. Leunen did not start and hit one of his two three-point attempts in the game. The Rockets play the Portland Trail Blazers today at 3 p.m. PDT. • Blazers sign Matthews to offer sheet: The Portland Trail Blazers have signed restricted free-agent guard Wesley Matthews to an offer sheet. Matthews spent last season playing for the Utah Jazz as a rookie. The Jazz have seven days to match the offer. Financial details of the contract offer, announced Saturday by the Trail Blazers, were not disclosed. Matthews averaged 9.4 points and 2.3 rebounds in 24.7 minutes per game for the Jazz. He appeared in all 82 games last season and started in 48. In the postseason, he averaged 13.2 points and 4.4 rebounds in 37.1 minutes per game. He started in all 10 of Utah’s playoff games. • Magic to consider matching Bulls’ offer for Redick: Orlando Magic general manager Otis Smith said Saturday that he plans to take “the full seven days” to decide whether to match an offer sheet the Chicago Bulls made for guard J.J. Redick. The Bulls reportedly signed Redick to a $19 million, three-year offer sheet. Because Redick is a restricted free agent, the Magic can match any offer for the shooting guard within seven days.
Baseball • Elks split squad beats Lumbermen: Behind strong pitching and eight errors for the Lumbermen, the Bend Elks split squad took a 4-1 victory at Vince Genna Stadium in Bend on Saturday afternoon. Chris Viegas hit two for four with a run, Jared Young hit one for three with an RBI and Spencer Ellsbury, Taylor Ausbun and Turner Gill each had a hit for Bend. • Ellsbury rejoins Red Sox in Toronto: Boston outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury rejoined the Red Sox in Toronto Friday after being away for over a month while he worked out in Phoenix. Ellsbury, a Madras High and
Oregon State product, has been limited to just nine games this season because of broken ribs. He’ll be examined by team doctors and resume baseball activities this weekend, then head to Boston’s spring training facility in Fort Myers, Fla., on Monday for further rehab. “It’s a long way to come for two days but, because of the AllStar break, we really wanted our medical people to see him before he takes off and does his baseball stuff in Fort Myers,” Francona said. • Morneau replaced by Konerko on AL All-Star roster: Paul Konerko was chosen to replace injured Justin Morneau on the AL All-Star team Saturday. Morneau will miss the game Tuesday night in Anaheim, Calif., because of a concussion. New York Yankees manager Joe Girardi, the American League skipper, selected Konerko to be Morneau’s replacement on the roster. The Chicago White Sox first baseman began the day batting .299 with 20 home runs and 62 RBIs. • Swisher, Young join All-Star Home Run derby: Nick Swisher of the New York Yankees and Chris Young of the Arizona Diamondbacks will swing away in the All-Star home run derby. Major League Baseball announced Saturday that Swisher and Young will take part in the slugging exhibition at Angel Stadium. Swisher won the fan voting to become the final player on the AL All-Star team. He’s hit 14 home runs and Young has 15 this season. Both are first-time All-Stars.
Tennis • France knocks out Spain in Davis Cup quarters: Spain’s bid for three successive Davis Cup titles was ended Saturday by a team it hadn’t lost to in 87 years. France grabbed an unassailable 3-0 lead in their quarterfinal when Michael Llodra and Julien Benneteau beat Fernando Verdasco and Feliciano Lopez 6-1, 6-2, 6-7 (6), 76 (5) in Clermont-Ferrand. The Czech Republic, whitewashed by Spain in last year’s final, also set up a home semifinal at Chile’s expense with a day to spare. Meanwhile, Serbia regained the lead against Croatia 2-1 in Split, and Argentina continued to defy the odds by leading Russia 2-1 in Moscow. — From wire reports

OAKMONT, Pa. — One more day like this, and Paula Creamer will no longer be the best LPGA golfer who hasn’t won a major. Creamer kept her game together as a dozen others were losing theirs on a grueling day at the U.S. Women’s Open on Saturday, taking a three-shot lead over Wendy Ward that she hopes will hold up in the final round. That, and her left thumb. Creamer, who has eight top-10 finishes in majors at age 23 but has yet to win one, is playing in only her fourth tournament since sitting out four months to surgically repair a hyperextended joint. The injury is so painful she limits her practice shots because she can’t stand the constant pounding of her golf club striking the ground. “I’ll probably sleep with an ice bag on,” Creamer said. “I’m afraid to take the tape off — my thumb is going to explode out of it. But the more I think about making pars, the less the thumb bothers me.” Maybe that was the best way to prepare for the demanding Oakmont Country Club, whose stray shot-grabbing bunkers and trickyto-read greens doomed the hopes of contender after contender on a day when play began at dawn and extended to sundown. Namely, stay off it as much as possible. Creamer, who played 29 holes Saturday, is 1 under for the tournament with five holes remaining in a third round that will be completed this morning. The 37-yearold Ward, a four-time LPGA Tour winner, has only No. 18 to play. Suzann Pettersen is four back with four holes to go, while 15-

Paula Creamer hits out of a bunker on the seventh hole during the third round of the U.S. Women’s Open at Oakmont Country Club in Oakmont, Pa., Saturday. Creamer holds a three-stroke lead. year-old Alexis Thompson, Amy Yang and Brittany Lang are five back. Only Thompson completed the third round. “You know, this was a tough day,” Creamer said. “I got here at 5:30 this morning and it’s 9 now. That’s a lot of golf. On this course, I mean, 18 holes is enough.” Creamer, sixth in the last two U.S. Women’s Opens, played all but two holes of her 1-under 70 in the morning — the only belowpar score among those completing the second round on Saturday. She followed that by getting three birdies and two bogeys during the third round, with the second bogey coming on No. 13 just as the USGA sounded a horn halting play due to dwindling light. The only other 70 of the day was by Thompson, who is playing in
her fourth Women’s Open — her fourth! — despite not yet being 16 but only her second tournament as a pro. She is at 4-over 217. Like most teenagers, Thompson is glad she gets to sleep in today. “I’m really thankful I don’t have to come back at 7:30 to play for likely just a hole,” said Thompson, whose father, Scott, is toting her bag. As Creamer was stringing together par after par, playing partner Cristie Kerr — the runaway 12-shot winner of the LPGA Championship only two weeks ago — was faltering. Kerr went from one shot off the lead at the start of the third round to eight down in 12 holes, aided by back-to-back double bogeys on Nos. 4 and 5. She’s now at six over par.

SILVIS, Ill. — Steve Stricker continued his sizzling play at the John Deere Classic on Saturday, pulling away from the field with a 9-under 62 for a six-shot lead heading into the final round. Stricker’s mastery of the TPC Deere Run course left at 25-under 188 for the tournament, the best 54-hole score in PGA Tour history. With a 65 today, he’d break the 72-hole record of 254. So dominant was Stricker that Jeff Maggert shot a 63 and lost ground. Paul Goydos, golf’s latest Mr. 59 after a magical round on Thursday, played well enough to keep pace in most tournaments, just not this one. Maggert, who started the day five shots behind Stricker, was at 19-under 194 and tied with Goydos. Former PGA Champion Matt Jones wriggled into fourth place with a 66 that left him 16 under. “Stricker’s nine in front of me, so you’d have to have something miraculous happened to him,” Jones said. “That’s not going to happen the way he’s playing, so my goal now is to play for second.” Also on Saturday: Molinari leads Scottish Open LUSS, Scotland — Edoardo Molinari, of Italy, shot an 8under 63 to take a one stroke lead over Darren Clarke, of Northern Ireland, going into the final day of the Scottish Open at Loch Lomond. Molinari was at 15-under 198 after a round that included an eagle and seven birdies. Clarke had a 67.

AL ROUNDUP Mariners 4, Yankees 1 SEATTLE — Jose Lopez hit his second career grand slam off Joba Chamberlain in the eighth inning, and Felix Hernandez went the distance in outpitching Javier Vazquez and leading Seattle to a come-from-behind victory over New York. Held hitless into the sixth inning by Vazquez, the Mariners’ offense came alive against the Yankees burly reliever, and Hernandez (7-5) earned his third straight complete-game victory against New York, which had its seven-game winning streak snapped. Seattle loaded the bases against Chamberlain (1-4) on a fielder’s choice by Ichiro Suzuki, a single by Chone Figgins and an intentional walk to Russell Branyan.

Orioles 6, Rangers 1 ARLINGTON, Texas — Cliff Lee’s complete-game debut for Texas was spoiled by Chris Tillman, who took a no-hitter into the seventh inning and led Baltimore to a victory over the AL West leaders. Lee, the 2008 AL Cy Young winner the Rangers got from Seattle in a six-player deal Friday, threw his AL-best sixth complete game even though he trailed 1-0 after giving up hits on his first two pitches and later yielded home runs in three consecutive innings.

The Rockies have had three dramatic comeback wins in the late innings this week. But they didn’t need to roar from behind in this one, using another strong start from Hammel to win for the 10th time in 12 games.

Braves 4, Mets 0 NEW YORK — Tim Hudson pitched seven gritty innings before turning it over to one of the best bullpens in baseball, and Omar Infante’s hot bat helped Atlanta beat New York. Infante, the Braves’ jack-of-all trades All-Star, had three hits and drove in a run after getting four hits in the series opener. Hudson (9-4) helped himself with a pair of hits that included an RBI double during a four-run fifth.

Heat, LeBron, make pitch to Derek Fisher NBA
By Tim Reynolds The Associated Press
MIAMI — Derek Fisher might be why Miami’s new trio of superstars left money on the table. Fisher met Saturday with Heat president Pat Riley, one day after the team lavishly introduced LeBron James and Chris Bosh as Dwyane Wade’s newest teammates. James, Bosh and Wade all will make less than the $16.6 million they could have commanded next season, giving Miami the chance to lure other players. Riley declined comment Saturday. Fisher has been part of all five Los Angeles Lakers championships in the Kobe Bryant era. After the Lakers won their second straight title last month, Fisher said he would return to Los Angeles, and Bryant insisted he wouldn’t allow Fisher to play anywhere else. But after Fisher reportedly received a $2.5 million offer for next season from Los Angeles, he listened to other possibilities, in-
cluding the chance to play in Miami, which had enough cap room to not only keep Wade and add James and Bosh, but could lure a slew of other talented players as well. “It’s about sacrifice now,” Wade said. James, Bosh and Wade all signed six-year contracts. The value of James and Bosh’s deals is nearly $111 million, while Wade took around $107 million. They could have received about $125.5 million apiece if they had taken the maximum value allowed under the current collective bargaining agreement. “What we signed for is not important,” James said Friday night at Miami’s welcome celebration. “One thing that is important is we all sacrificed money, sacrificed a lot of things to be a part of this. But what we signed for is not important. What we’re going to do this coming fall is what’s most important.”
Fisher averaged 7.5 points and 2.5 assists while starting all 82 regular-season games last season. In the playoffs, he averaged 10.3 points and 2.8 assists, again the starter for all 23 postseason contests. Wade, James and Bosh all have given names to Riley of various players they would like to see join the Heat. Miami is closing in on a deal with Mike Miller and expects to keep Udonis Haslem, who has more lucrative offers from other clubs but wants to remain in South Florida — his lifelong home. “He’s been a part of this with me for seven years. ... We want Udonis back and we’re going to do everything we can to make sure Udonis stays home,” Wade said Friday night. Riley said Friday that there “might be some good news” about Haslem’s status with the Heat in the coming days. Nonetheless, now with only four players — James, Wade, Bosh and Mario Chalmers — under contract, the work continues to fill out Miami’s roster.
Omnium Continued from D1 Under the blazing midday sun, the cyclists raced around a shortloop course at Summit High School in northwest Bend. “I try to be aggressive,” said Wilcoxson, 32, who is a Category 2 racer. “I don’t want everybody to be as strong as they possibly can at the end. My theory is that if you attack early, you can feel out what other people have for the finish and maybe tire them out a little bit and improve your chances of winning.” The women’s Cat 1/2/3 race lasted 30 minutes. At three laps to go, Bend’s Serena Bishop attacked and gained a 50-meter lead. Following suit was Eugene’s Heather Hill. Though the two held the gap for two laps, Wilcoxson turned on the heat once again, and from the middle of the pack she sprinted threequarters of a lap to the finish to win it. “I didn’t want to expend too much energy reeling them in because I wouldn’t have anything left for the sprint,” said Wilcoxson, clad in a bright-red kit. “I was waiting for other girls to reel them in, but we didn’t quite make it. So on the last lap I just decided to go for it.” Wilcoxson is the only female on her eight-rider cycling team Flywheel Bicycle Solutions based in Talent. She attributed her aggressive tactics to all the racing she has done with her male teammates. “There were some really strong girls out there today, though,” noted Wilcoxson. “There was a lot of power. Early on, every attack that went out got reeled in.” Runner-up Tina Brubaker, 37, of Salem, and her Veloforma teammates agreed that the crit was a push all the way through.

Rachelle Jorgensen, right, fights to break away from her competitors during the High Desert Omnium women’s criterium held Saturday at Summit High School in Bend. “Our strategy was to keep (the pace) really fast,” said Brubaker. “But that was everybody else’s strategy, so we didn’t have to try that hard, because everybody else had it going pretty good. It was a fast race. Everybody was working.” Usually the work of an entire team is required for an individual rider to win a criterium or a road race. But on Saturday, Wilcoxson was a one-woman team. Hill, 38, placed third overall in the women’s Cat 1/2/3 race. Other criterium races Saturday included the men’s professional, Category 1 through 5 and masters, along with a women’s Category 4. The High Desert Omnium consists of three stages. The time trial was held later Saturday starting at Summit High. The 9-mile out-and-back course fol-
lowed Skyliners Road west from the school for 4.5 miles. The final Omnium stage starts today at Edison Sno-park southwest of Bend. The road race follows Forest Service roads for 60 miles (37 miles in the women’s category 4 race). The Omnium’s road race is also the final stop of the 2010 Oregon Cup Series. “Unlike a stage race … where you have to do all three stages, here you can … pick one, two or three of the races or whatever you want,” noted Cate Haas, race director and a member of the host Bend Bella Cyclists, an all-female cycling group. “But the overall Omnium is made up of gaining points throughout the weekend. “This is a great women’s group racing today,” added Haas. Wilcoxson is seeded second in the Oregon Bicycle Racing Association’s Oregon Cup series and
hopes to move up in today’s 60-mile road race. The Omnium kicks off today at 10 a.m. with the men’s pro, Cat 1 and Cat 2 race. For a complete road race schedule, visit www.highdesertomnium.com. Katie Brauns can be reached at 541-383-0393 or at kbrauns@bendbulletin.com.
Golf Continued from D1 Indeed it was. To start, each pro golfer in the field (there were 16 on Friday night) was numbered from 1 through 16. At a table set up on the clubhouse patio, spectators made bets on a golfer to win, place or show (finish first, second or third). (Proceeds from the betting go toward a scholarship sponsored by the ladies golf club at Prineville Golf Club, and to the Folds of Honor Foundation, which provides post-secondary educational scholarships for children and spouses of military servicemen and -women killed or disabled while serving.) The pros and the members all gathered around the first tee, laughing it up and throwing a few cold ones down together. “They all come out and bet and follow the pros around,” Mark Payne, former head pro at Prineville GC and now retired, said before the event teed off. “It’s a real kick in the pants.” Brad Hunter, who grew up in Prineville and is now an assistant pro at Bend’s River’s Edge Golf Club, got the most betting action Friday. Brian Nosler, a pro from Vanco Golf Range in Vancouver, Wash., and one of the top golfers in the PGA’s Pacific Northwest Section, was also a popular bet. Dan Ostrin, Matt Denesha, Ryan Whitcomb, Adam Martin and Matt Phillips were among the other local pros. It was a steamy evening with a threat of thunderstorms, but for the most part the rain held off. Some of the pros were surprised by the tournament atmosphere. “This is a great event,” said Phillips, head pro at Aspen Lakes Golf Course in Sisters, who was playing in his first Prineville Invitational. “I had no idea there was so much going on out here.” The golfers teed off from the first hole, a short par 4. One after another, they played their shots. As you might imagine, a group of 16 golfers takes awhile. Just be thankful you don’t have to play behind four foursomes all playing the same hole. “A lot of marriages don’t last this long,” joked MacDonald, the chairman for this year’s tournament. “So much for fast play.” Eventually, the pros all gathered on the first green, along with a handful of volunteers who were helping referee the event. All told, about two dozen folks were stand-
ing on the green at one time. It was organized chaos. Or at least I ASSUMED it was organized. At that point, I had a better chance of cracking DaVinci’s Code than figuring out what was happening in the horse race. Two or three of the highestscoring golfers on each hole were eliminated until the final three golfers went head-to-head-tohead on the final two holes of the nine-hole competition. An army of golf carts, all filled with spectators, followed the golfers. It looked a bit like a Los Angeles freeway. And at each hole the crowd seemingly grew louder. By the second hole, spectators had perched themselves on an adjacent hill. After the third hole, about an hour and a half in, the cheers could be heard from the tee at No. 1, about 500 yards away, where I happened to be standing. “Sounds like Augusta,” remarked Bob Garza, the head pro at Bend’s Lost Tracks Golf Club, who said he has played in eight Prineville horse races since 2000 but sat this one out with an injury. “By the fifth hole, they’ve made their bets, and they have been drinking,” Garza said of the event’s enthusiastic spectators. “They really cheer you on.” Most important, everybody there — from the pros to the members to a golf writer — was enjoying each other’s company. Payne won the horse race, and he was followed by Todd O’Neal of Orchard Hills Country Club in Washougal, Wash., and Ryan Fery of Portland’s Rose City Golf Club. But WHO won mattered little, unless of course you were one of the lucky ones who bet the winner. The horse race was more of a social mixer, MacDonald said. It’s really a chance for the pros and the Prineville Golf Club members to get reacquainted with one another before the 36-hole tournament began Saturday. The tournament ends today. But you can bet the pros and the members will leave with good memories. And most will be back next year to do it all again. “This is a lot of fun,” MacDonald said. “And you get to see some good golf, too.” Zack Hall can be reached at 541617-7868 or at zhall@bendbulletin. com.

Reutimann cruises to Sprint Cup win Contenders will be By Chris Jenkins The Associated Press
JOLIET, Ill. — The first one might have been lucky. This one was legitimate. David Reutimann blew past Jeff Gordon and cruised to the victory in the Sprint Cup race at Chicagoland Speedway on Saturday night. For Reutimann and his Michael Waltrip Racing team, it was a polite told-ya-so to fellow competitors — many of whom weren’t shy about saying they didn’t think it counted when Reutimann won a rain-shortened race at Charlotte in May 2009. Reutimann called that win a dark cloud hanging over his head, pausing briefly when he realized he made an unintentional pun. “OK, here you go,” he said. “Just leave me alone. We won the race.” Carl Edwards made a charge in the closing laps, at one point cutting Reutimann’s lead to less than a second, but he couldn’t get close enough and finished second. Gordon was third, followed by Clint Bowyer and Jamie McMurray. It was a rough night for several strong Chase contenders — notably Jimmie Johnson, who dominated the first half of the race but spun out and later scraped the wall to finish 25th.
Nam Y. Huh / The Associated Press
NASCAR Sprint Cup Series driver David Reutimann celebrates with crew members in victory lane after winning the LifeLock 400 auto race at ChicagoLand Speedway in Joliet, Ill., Saturday. Kevin Harvick entered with momentum and the points lead but struggled all day long, eventually pulling into the garage with engine problems on lap 194. He returned to the race and finished 34th. Harvick still holds a 103point lead over Gordon in the standings. Greg Biffle also went to the garage with apparent engine problems late in the race and finished 35th.
Kyle Busch (17th), Dale Earnhardt Jr. (23rd) and Kurt Busch (26th) also had a rough night. Several drivers said they were happy for Reutimann. “We all got to hang out with each other every week, but he’s the guy you’d hang out with if you had an off weekend,” Edwards said. “He’s a good guy.” And as of Saturday night, Reutimann can wave goodbye to any asterisks that were attached to his first career win because of
the rain. “I’ve probably not seen anyone have to walk around for a year and a half and apologize about winning a race,” MWR general manager Ty Norris said. And Reutimann made it clear he isn’t going anywhere at the end of the season, saying he has a handshake deal with MWR on a new contract. Norris said the team would announce specifics about the futures of Reutimann and crew chief Rodney Childers at the Brickyard 400 later this month. “These guys proved tonight that they deserve a contract,” Norris said. “They deserve to be around.” As Reutimann hunted Gordon down for the lead, his team came on the radio and encouraged him to wait for Gordon to make a mistake. “Are you kidding?” Reutimann joked. “He’s Jeff Gordon. When’s he going to make a mistake?” But Gordon did develop handling problems, allowing Reutimann to take the lead on lap 213. He moved in front again after a cycle of pit stops. It was the 600th career start for Gordon, who joked that he’s beginning to feel a little old. “I do when I get out of that race car and everything aches,” Gordon said. “It didn’t used to be like that.”
Germany tops Uruguay for third place By Nesha Starcevic The Associated Press
PORT ELIZABETH, South Africa — In pouring rain on a ragged field, Germany and Uruguay staged a match entertaining enough to be for the World Cup title. Too bad it was only for third place. Sami Khedira scored in the 82nd minute to give Germany a 3-2 victory and third place for the second straight World Cup. But the Germans had to survive a final-second free kick by Uruguay star striker Diego Forlan from just
Title Continued from D1 Which one? “I am sure the Spanish can win any game because they are dominant and it’s hard to contain their attack,” Germany coach Joachim Loew said after his team lost 10 in the semifinals. “They have shown they can beat anyone.” Perhaps. But ... “The Dutch can create a goal from any situation,” coach Oscar Tabarez said after his Uruguay squad allowed three to the Netherlands, one more than it gave up in the rest of the tournament. “They play some beautiful football.” How nice it would be if this final featured just that: wellplayed, open, creative soccer. That’s what both the Dutch and Spaniards do best. So if coaches Bert van Marwijk and Vicente del Bosque don’t turn conservative all of a sudden, today’s showdown could turn into one entertaining shootout. “I love attacking and beautiful football,” the Netherlands’ Van Marwijk said, “but you have to work together when the opponent has the ball and then you can go a long way.” The Dutch have gone a long way in the World Cup before. They simply couldn’t finish it off in 1974 and 1978, losing in the fi-
WORLD CUP outside the penalty area. It ricocheted off the crossbar, and the whistle sounded. Rain-soaked players shook hands and awaited a medals ceremony that was not nearly what they wanted. The Netherlands and Spain will play for the championship today in Johannesburg. Germany coach Joachim Loew, his voice still hoarse from the flu, said his team was going home “with a very good feeling.” “We achieved more than we
nal to host teams West Germany and Argentina. They carry one of the most impressive strings of success into the championship match that soccer has seen: 10 straight wins and 25 games without a loss. If they beat Spain, the Dutch will match Brazil’s 1970 accomplishment of sweeping all qualifying and World Cup games. They have the tools. Midfielder Wesley Sneijder has been brilliant throughout the tournament and is tied with Spain striker David Villa for the scoring lead with five goals. The three-pronged unit up front of Arjen Robben, Dirk Kuyt and Robin van Persie matches up with any group anywhere. “Holland is going to play its football,” Spain midfielder Sergio Busquets said. “That’s important, that everyone plays their own game and shows their cards.” Obviously, turning the final into an offensive show makes sense for the Netherlands. Unfortunately for the Oranje, it might make even more sense for the Spaniards. The European champions can match the Dutch in firepower with Villa, Xavi, Xabi Alonso, Andres Iniesta, Pedro, Cesc Fabregas, Fernando Torres and Fernando Llorente. They have the more experienced goalkeeper in Iker Casillas, making
perhaps expected,” Loew said. Khedira’s header after the Uruguay defense failed to clear a corner kick by Mesut Oezil ended Uruguay’s hopes of beating Germany for the first time in 82 years. “We had hoped for more, and we did everything for it,” Khedira said. “This was some kind of final and we did everything for it. “We have a young team and set an exclamation mark here and can reach more.” Uruguay came from behind to lead 2-1 when Forlan brilliantly volleyed in Egidio Arevalo’s 51st-
minute cross for his fifth goal of the tournament. Germany defender Marcell Jansen tied it five minutes later with a header after goalkeeper Fernando Muslera misjudged a cross. In the dying moments, on a rain soaked pitch, Uruguay had one more opportunity. But Forlan, who has been especially dangerous on free kicks, hit the bar. “Obviously it’s something spectacular to be among the top four,” said Forlan. “If someone would’ve asked us at the beginning, we would’ve liked it. It’s something positive.”
it more likely they would get the big saves when the Netherlands breaks through. The Spanish don’t have the Netherlands’ winning streak, but they have lost only two games since November 2006 — both did come in South Africa, one in this tournament — and controlled the pace of the game against Germany in the semifinal. Spain couldn’t have been more efficient with its well-structured passing game against the Germans, who played cautiously — not at all their style — and thus played right into the Spaniards’ hands. If Spain remains as patient and precise with the ball against the Dutch as it was in the semifinals, can the Oranje defense hold firm? Van Marwijk has seen how the Spanish respond when the Jabulani winds up on opposing feet: “When they lose the ball, they immediately join in (to get it
back). Their big stars, too.” Not that the Dutch coach is conceding anything in that area. “It is something we also do well,” Van Marwijk said. The final, then, could come down to the playmakers and the finishers. Sneijder has been superb at both jobs, the most versatile individual performer at South Africa 2010. But Xavi and Iniesta have improved throughout the tournament, and Villa has bursts of energy combined with creativity that make him just as dangerous. Most of Soccer City’s orange seats figure to be filled with, well, Oranje fans. Sneijder virtually promised they will go home happy. “We won every qualifying game, every game here. We are not going to allow Spain to beat us now,” he said. The Spaniards might have something to say about that.
shaken out as Tour heads to the Alps By Jamey Keaten The Associated Press
LES ROUSSES, France — Lance Armstrong is predicting a shakeout among the top Tour de France contenders with the race heading to the Alps for its first serious climbing. The seven-time Tour champion and his main rivals struggled under hot and muggy conditions Saturday when French rider Sylvain Chavanel won a seventh stage that included six low- and midlevel climbs in the eastern Jura mountains. It was a foretaste of the climbs to come: the pack embarks on serious Alpine punishment Sunday with a 117.4mile jaunt that features two very difficult climbs in the run between the Les Rousses and Morzine-Avoriaz ski stations. If the Texan wants an eighth Tour crown, he’ll need to excel in the mountains. The stages in the Alps today and Tuesday are important, but four leg-straining days in the Pyrenees in the third week may be decisive. While he “suffered” Saturday, “there will be selection tomorrow, it won’t be like today,” Armstrong said. Overall, he trails 2009 Tour champion Alberto Contador by 50 seconds and world champion and twotime runner-up Cadel Evans by 1 minute, 51 seconds. Despite today’s uphill finish into Morzine-Avoriaz, Armstrong believes the day’s first big climb — the 8.9-mile Ramaz pass — will be the key. It has patches where the gradient rises to nearly 10 percent. “It’s super hard if we have temperatures like this, people will just be stuck on the road,” he said. The forecast was for temperatures up to 91 degrees in the plains, and the 38-year-old Texan, who is competing in his 13th Tour, noted that roads can

Sylvain Chavanel, of France, crosses the finish line to win the seventh stage of the Tour de France over 165.5 kilometers (102.8 miles) on Saturday. melt under the heat and cause havoc for riders. “If you hit it just right (your tire) will slip for a while and then it will grab, and you’ll just high-side (topple off) immediately,” he said. On Saturday, Armstrong and other leading contenders finished 1:47 behind Chavanel, the Quick Step rider who won his second Tour stage this year in the 101-mile trek from Tournus to Station des Rousses. The Frenchman is known more for riding strong in breakaways than scaling high mountains and the pre-race favorites don’t see him as a threat to their title hopes. Chavanel wrested the yellow jersey back from Fabian Cancellara, who struggled on the final climb and trailed 14:12 back. The Swiss rider wore it for six days and has no hope of recovering the coveted shirt now — he plunged to 58th overall.

Recession shows value of university
T
he article on this page by former Bulletin reporter Andrew Moore is doubly depressing for a number of reasons. But the one that truly hits home is the not-so-hidden message that if a good, hardworking, responsible family can lose its house, its hometown and its way of life in this recession, it can happen to almost anyone. And it happened here to a fellow who was still well-employed. And, though there are signs that the economy is not getting any worse, this tragedy is happening all over the nation. And it is happening in Central Oregon with particular force because of our overreliance on real estate and home construction as core industries. The reality: Central Oregon’s unemployment and home foreclosure rates are near or at the top of all counties in the state, which itself is near the top of the nation in such dismal and depressing rankings. One response is to simply accept the cyclical nature of the boom-and-bust cycle and wait until real estate values start to rise again, which they will inevitably do. In his column today, Business Editor John Stearns reports some sobering news from local real estate specialists. It could be a decade before values reach the levels of 2007, and there may be another two years of real estate defaults yet to appear, and another couple of years as well before any noticeable home appreciation takes hold. Whatever the numbers, and whether you think it is wise or not to hope for another 2007-like bubble, a good argument can be made that a local economy not so dependent on real estate, one more diversified and with a substantial array of employers, would be a good thing. This is depressingly ironic to imagine but consider the comparative euphoria if Deschutes County’s near 15 percent unemployment rate dropped to Oregon’s average of a mere 10 percent. As David Holley reports today in Business, Deschutes’ rate is higher in some ways because growth continued here into the recession in numbers that it didn’t elsewhere. The area remains attractive, even in bad times, which is reassuring for the long term. Still, that doesn’t make the 15 percent any less unemployed in the near term. There are as many ideas about building a stronger local economy as there are observers, but one recurs time and time again. That is, build a university. That is easier said than done, but a good deal of progress has been made over the past decade. There is a branch of Oregon State University that appears to be growing nicely. And a plan to advance it has been developed, and the State Board of Higher Education voted Friday to approve parts of it. Universities in and of themselves are, for the most part, excellent employers and can soften economic downturns wherever they are located. More importantly, they are magnets, promising that most precious of all resources — an educated work force. It is still astonishing, as Holley reports in his story today, that one problem that employers in Central Oregon face even in this recession is finding qualified workers. What is the big obstacle to building a university? Money. It is true that even if we had unlimited funds it would be years, if not decades, to realize a standalone university in Central Oregon. But it will be even longer if we don’t start now, and a lot can be done to get started. That will take enormous foresight and political courage. The city of Bend owns and controls 1,500 acres of open land called Juniper Ridge, and there is an advisory group now sorting out the best way to develop it. One of the wisest steps the city could take now is to dedicate a slice of the future taxes from that property for higher education. It won’t be easy, or as Margaret Thatcher would observe, “this is no time for the wobblies.” But the alternative is a recession uniquely painful for the region. This one for sure, but the next one, and the one after that, and the one after that as well. John Costa is editor in chief of The Bulletin.

What if the next
foreclosure
happened
to you?
By Andrew Moore • The Bulletin
Through the first six months of 2010, there were 2,053 notices of default filed in Deschutes County. One of those was for my house. Ironic, huh? The real estate reporter loses his home to foreclosure? Yes. But maybe also symbolic of a region hard hit by the recession, and of families whose lives have been turned upside down by economic forces out of their control. In July 2007, my wife, Erin, and I purchased a new, 2,900-square-foot home in a recently developed subdivision in southeast Bend. It was more than twice the size of the home we had just sold a few blocks away and was well-suited to raise our growing family and house my wife’s thriv-
ing day care business. We didn’t like the house’s exterior color — an orange-ish earth tone — but we fell in love with the home. We called it “The Big Peach.” We put down 20 percent of the $375,000 purchase price and signed a conventional 30-year fixed loan with an interest rate of 6.75 percent. The monthly payment was roughly $1,752, excluding insurance and property taxes. The price was less than Bend’s May 2007 peak
median price of $396,000 and, because the builder had lowered the price of our house shortly before we bought it, we thought we had scored a deal. At the time, I was The Bulletin’s arts reporter and had only a vague sense of the economic clouds gathering on the horizon. Talk of a housing bubble went through one ear and out the other.

Merkley tackles HUBZone flaws
T
he federal Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) program may be a mess as public policy, but it’s hard to beat as a source of unintended consequences.
A good argument could be made for killing the program entirely. But as a minimum, Congress ought to follow Sen. Jeff Merkley’s lead and tackle some of its most egregious flaws. In concept, the HUBZone program is both simple and well-intentioned. It gives small businesses in economically depressed areas preferential treatment in securing some federal contracts. But implementing this concept in a reasonable fashion has been virtually impossible. The program establishes HUBZones according to unemployment rates, which, of course, fluctuate regularly and sometimes widely. In order to dole out preferential treatment as intended, therefore, the government ought to reset the HUBZone map regularly in keeping with shifting unemployment. But this task has proven far too complex, and the feds have responded by freezing HUBZone status. They intend to redo the map next year using data collected during the 2010 Census. Unfortunately, this schedule works badly for businesses in Deschutes County, where unemployment in May exceeded the state average by about 50 percent. The county’s unemployment rate was relatively low when the federal government last updated HUBZones. Ironically, then, the HUBZone program is barring businesses in Deschutes County from enjoying preferential treatment created for businesses just like them. In response, some Des-
chutes County businesses have moved their offices to neighboring counties that are on the HUBZone map. So instead of helping businesses in economically depressed areas, the HUBZone program has chased them elsewhere. But don’t blame this absurdity on Merkley, Oregon’s freshman senator, who’s doing what he can to help. He has co-sponsored a bill with Louisiana Democrat Mary Landrieu that would allow federal contracting agencies to ignore the HUBZone program more easily. This bill hasn’t gone anywhere yet, but Merkley, not to be discouraged, has co-sponsored an alternative bill that would grant temporary HUBZone status to high-unemployment counties whenever the National Bureau of Economic Research declares a recession. The short duration of HUBZone status granted under the latter bill — three years — may limit its effectiveness. But Merkley’s certainly trying, for which he deserves credit. If there’s a lesson in the HUBZone saga, it’s that bad programs are far easier to create than they are to fix. Deschutes County businesses are fortunate, though, that Merkley and likeminded colleagues are willing to do the hard work needed to make the HUBZone program function as intended.
Unhappy ranchers B
ecause even Gandhi couldn’t make Oregon’s ranchers and newly arrived wolves coexist happily, many of us would be happy with begrudging acceptance. Unfortunately, at least a handful of environmental groups appear to be aiming even lower. The groups recently sued to prevent the U.S. Department of Agriculture Wildlife Service from killing a pair of the state’s modest wolf population. Given the efforts of both federal and state governments to protect wolves, the decision to kill a couple of them may seem odd. The wolves, however, were to have been taken from an area in which several calves were killed this spring. But shortly after the groups filed their suit, the feds decided to delay the hunt for at least the rest of the month. Many Oregonians, ourselves included, are less than thrilled by the thought of killing two of the state’s 14 known wolves. So perhaps a lawsuit by environmental groups was inevitable. Still, the precedent is a bit disturbing. The federal agency was merely acting on a permit issued by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, which is guided by the Oregon Wolf Plan. The feds went wrong, argues Josh Laughlin with the Cascadia Wildlands, because they’re “supposed to, by law, do an analysis of their role in
the implementation of the Oregon Wolf Plan.” Cascadia Wildlands is one of the litigants, the others being Oregon Wild, the Center for Biological Diversity and the Hells Canyon Preservation Council. Environmental groups frequently produce the faulty-analysis argument when public land managers try to do something they don’t like. Because, you know, if they’d done their analysis correctly they’d agree with environmental groups, saving everybody the trouble of going to court. Instead of killing wolves, argues Laughlin, “wildlife agencies … should do all they can to sustain this fragile population.” But suing to save wolves and suing to prevent logging projects are two very different things. Timber companies rarely fire up their chainsaws and start chopping until they have the proper approval. If nothing else, it would be virtually impossible to do so unnoticed. But as difficult as it might be to find and kill a wolf, the odds of being caught with your finger on the trigger are fairly low in much of Oregon. Hence, “shoot, shovel and shut up.” We assume that environmental groups don’t want ranchers to take matters into their own hands. If this is so, the worst thing they can do is fire up a lawsuit every time wildlife managers attempt to protect ranchers’ livestock.
Let’s reflect on Wyden’s forest bill By King Williams Bulletin guest columnist
W
hat Eastern Oregon needs to do is step back, take a big breath and really look at what Sen. Ron Wyden’s forest bill accomplishes. The Bulletin has reported on the process through articles about the field hearing held in Bend to a series of guest editorials, the latest from John Shelk I N M Y and an earlier one by Jim Huffman. Each shared a different view. The bill is in limbo, pending a move by the Senate Energy Committee. This allows time for reflection on some facts and some desires. First, it is noteworthy that the U.S. House of Representatives has no companion bill, and the congressman from the Second Congressional District, which the bill almost entirely encompasses, has not stepped up to support this bill, or even one similar. Why not? Second, of the 16 counties that would be affected by this bill, none has stepped up to support it, and at least three have formally responded in opposition to the bill. As Craig Woodward, of Prineville, testified at the Bend field hearing, he has “… discussed this bill with local city and county government. … I’ve found none willing to support this bill as written.” In fact, the county governments were not included as a part of the “joint industry/environmental working group” that Shelk referred to in his June 26 guest column. Third, we can all agree with Shelk that Oregon’s east-side forests are in dire straits. Unemployment in east-side counties is unreasonably high; many mills have shut down, including one my company owned, laying off thousands of workers; and as Shelk stated, “without the mills, there is no hope of doing
the work all agree must be done to restore our forests to health and reduce the fire hazard.” Fourth, we can agree with Shelk’s statement, “All parties acknowledge that passage of Sen. Wyden’s Eastside Oregon Forests Restoration Old Growth Protection and Jobs Act alone will not resolve all problems facing Eastern Oregon’s federal forests.” V I E W In fact, passage of this act will not provide the U.S. Forest Service with any new authority to accomplish the necessary work. The proposed act: 1. encourages collaborative groups, but these already are in place and working, and the act only complicates the process; 2. mandates large landscape scale projects on these forests, but these are already taking place — and again, these unfunded mandates only complicate the existing process; 3. encourages stewardship contracting, but this also is already taking place; and 4. complicates the process through the addition of a technical advisory panel, appointed by the U.S. Forest Service but requiring consultation with Congress. It took Congress one and a half years last time just to reappoint the resource advisory committee members to existing groups. Think how much turmoil and time it would take Congress to appoint a seven-member panel to advise six national forests. The proposed act would authorize Congress to appropriate $50 million for these six national forests to implement the act. What about the next 50 years or more, wherein Congress must specifically appropriate “earmarked” dollars for these six national forests different from the rest of the national forests in the United States? This type
of appropriation is unpopular, unlikely and nearly impossible to accomplish without cutting into the appropriations for the ongoing management of the rest of the USFS-managed lands. It is admirable that a small number of industry representatives, a small number of environmental groups and one senator attempted to “end the gridlock facing our federal forests.” However, the result did not even come close to meeting the objective. 1. The act expands current environmental regulation, further limits roads and generally complicates an already cumbersome process. 2. The act provides no assurance of funding levels sufficient to meet the forest product output levels necessary to retain the existing sawmills and forest industrial base while stabilizing the local dependent communities. The proponents of the bill simply say we must trust Wyden to provide the necessary funding. The problem is that Wyden has had decades to provide the necessary funding levels to promote healthy forests and has not produced. Why should we believe that the results will be any different in the current economic, social and political climate? 3. Not all industry is supporting this act, county governments are not supporting this act, and not all environmental groups are supporting this act. It is a fact that we must do something, but this bill would only make the situation more polarized, and it fails to address the real problem — funding to get economically viable restoration projects on the ground in enough quantity to retain the forest industrial base necessary to restore economic stability to eastern Oregon. They left out the people and the county governments. King Williams lives in Canyon City.

Salacious tales by Edwards’ estranged wife, ex-sycophant WASHINGTON — ave you had your fill of glogg and Kaffebars, leather jackets with rivets and sausages with pickles? Do you want to hop off the Tunnelbana, and move on from feminist-socialist-journalist Mikael Blomkvist and his pals, Eriksson, Svensson, Johansson, Jonasson, Nilsson, Martensson, Magnusson, Ekstrom, Edklinth and that suspected lesbian Satanist Lisbeth Salander, the most literally riveting heroine in some time and the most famous doll-like, krona-drenched Swedish twin besides Tiger Woods’ wife, Elin Nordegren? Then you might consider some beach reading featuring unforgettable characters spilling sensational secrets — but this time with simple names like Young and Edwards and familiar hangouts like Cracker Barrel and PetSmart. Aaron Sorkin is considering optioning Andrew Young’s memoir, “The Politician,” which would be apt since Young writes that John Edwards was inspired
H
to become a politician after he saw “The American President,” scripted by Sorkin. Young’s book is an amazing yarn about a fawning political aide and the feckless pol he serves beyond all reason. The unspeakable in pursuit of the inedible, as Oscar Wilde called fox hunting. We learn that in this era of immersion coverage, we can still end up with a shallow view of our candidates and their real — or Rielle — lives. A man like Edwards can be extremely close to ascending to the White House and still be camouflaging his true nature. To paraphrase Raymond Chandler, if character were elastic, John Edwards wouldn’t have enough to make suspenders for a parakeet. Once more putting the diss in dysfunction, Elizabeth Edwards has been promoting the paperback version of her best-seller, “Resilience: Reflections on the Burdens and Gifts of Facing Life’s Adversities,” making her feelings of betrayal by her ex, her ex’s mistress and
MAUREEN DOWD her ex’s sycophant perfectly clear. It’s tough to watch Elizabeth talk about her dirt-sandwich estranged husband because you have to wish her the best as she continues chemotherapy. She’s suffered through the worst betes noires that can rip through a woman’s life, and now, as she told Larry King last week, she feels sad about “the likelihood” she may live “the rest of my days without someone holding me in a passionate way.” Indicating that she found Rielle Hunter’s half-naked pictures in GQ distasteful, Elizabeth cast her as Lady Voldemort, barring King from mentioning the name of her husband’s girlfriend.
She said she would have accepted John’s daughter with Rielle and been her stepmother if John and she had stayed together, but “now there’s no reason really for me to.” Well, there is that little matter of 2year-old Frances Quinn Hunter being the half sister of Elizabeth’s kids. Elizabeth gave up on her 32-year marriage after making the supremely strange gesture of buying lavender soap for John to give to Quinn to give to Rielle at Christmas. Young is the anti-Iago, debasing himself for his boss, doing tasks like fetching the Christmas tree for the Edwards’ mansion and meeting John at the airport with his favorite chilled wine. In December 2007, the former senator called Young, saying that he needed to find a “way out of this thing,” and outlined a scheme to outsource sin that made F. Scott Fitzgerald’s careless Buchanans seem models of responsibility. “I was dumbfounded,” Young writes.
“How, I asked, was I supposed to explain to my wife that I should confess to an affair I never had, claim an unborn child that was not mine, and then bring her along with our family as we attempted to vanish into thin air?” They used the former senator’s trial lawyer friend’s private jet and they bilked poor Bunny Mellon out of the money for their screwball flight to luxury hotels where Rielle could squander thousands — and then the selfish Edwards didn’t even go to Bunny’s daughter’s funeral. Edwards told Young that it would be a one-day story and that they must be guided by a cause that was “bigger than any one of us” — i.e., Edwards. It’s a cautionary tale both for those who fawn and for those who need to be fawned over. The man who preached about two Americas will be remembered for doing it with two faces.

O Gloomy future a matter of choice W
e are hearing of all sorts of reasons why the United States is doomed to decline. After all, America is piling up deficits at a record rate of about $1.5 trillion a year while other countries are slashing their spending. The national debt cascades over $13 trillion and is on track to reach $20 trillion within a decade. The current recession is heading into its third year. Unemployment still hovers at nearly 10 percent. Much of the country thinks the war in Afghanistan is as good as lost. There are more than 80,000 American troops deployed there, along with nearly 50,000 allied soldiers — facing fewer than 10,000 Taliban insurgents. The largest oil spill in American history has been gushing up from sea for more than 80 days, with vague promises that it could be plugged in another month or so. Between 11 million and 20 million illegal aliens reside in the United States. And we cannot seem to stop another half million from crossing illegally into America each year. Politically, the fickle electorate was furious at Wall Street for the 2008 meltdown. But it is now angrier at a government that threatens to take over more private enterprise. In 2006, voters renounced congressional Republicans; in November 2010, even angrier voters will probably be more unforgiving of the once-dominant Democrats.
VICTOR DAVIS HANSON George W. Bush left office with dismal poll numbers. Yet Barack Obama, who campaigned on the theme that he would serve as a reset button for the prior administration, and who enjoyed an approval rate of nearly 70 percent at inauguration, has seen his own ratings dive below 50 percent in just 18 months. No wonder this dismal news — coupled with constant predictions of a rising, all-powerful China and the emergence of new, upcoming regional powers like Turkey, Brazil and India — prompts nonstop gloom about inevitable American decay. Even Obama, at times, seems to envision a multipolar world in which the United States no longer is “exceptional” in the manner of the last 70 years. In the midst of our current malaise, we feel overwhelmed by largely shortterm problems and our current inability to address them — without appreciating our long-term strengths and present bounty, or learning from past recoveries. We are soon to revert to the Clin-
ton income tax rates last used in 2000, when we ran budget surpluses. If likewise we were to cut the budget, or just hold federal spending to the rate of inflation, America would soon run surpluses as it did a decade ago. For all our problems, the United States is still the largest economy in the world, its 300 million residents producing more goods and services than the more than 1 billion in either China or India. The U.S. military defeated both Saddam Hussein and the Islamic insurgency that followed him in Iraq, while fostering consensual government. With the same determination, there is no reason why it cannot do the same in Afghanistan. Certainly neither enemy is comparable to Nazi Germany or Imperial Japan, which a much poorer America helped to defeat simultaneously within four years of engagement. Nearly 70 years ago, a far less scientifically sophisticated country developed the atomic bomb in three years. It could likewise surely mobilize to plug a leaking oil well in three months. If the United States chooses to close its southern border — by finishing the fence, fining all employers of illegal aliens and increasing patrols — illegal entry from the south would cease almost at once. The pool of resident illegal aliens would shrink through assimilation, intermarriage and voluntary repatriation while Congress keeps haggling over the particulars of com-
prehensive reform. Our supposedly intractable problems are hardly insurmountable. Ascendant China and India have much less freedom and far greater environmental problems, political turmoil and class disparity. Europe is not as productive as America and is shrinking in size, not growing as we are. In the bleak 1930s, we were told that German discipline and order were the answer; during the depressing stagflation of the 1970s, Japan Inc. was supposed to be the way of the future. Then a resurgence of American confidence and renewed faith in our exceptional system dispelled all such nonsense. The United States remains the most racially diverse, stable, free, productive and militarily strong country in the world. Its current crises are largely the political and cultural creations of the most affluent and leisured generation in civilization’s history — not due to long-standing civil unrest, structural weakness or a sudden shortage of natural resources. America may well soon decline and simply become no different from any other nation. But such a depressing future would largely be our generation’s own free choice; it is not a historical inevitability.

T
he American economy is sputtering, and we are running out of options. Interest rates can’t go any lower. Another burst of government spending — whether a good or bad idea — looks politically impossible. Is there anything that could protect us from the dangers of stagnation or a double dip? Actually, there is a second stimulus, one that could have a dramatic effect on the economy — even more so than government spending. And it won’t add to the deficit. The Federal Reserve recently reported that America’s 500 largest nonfinancial companies have accumulated an astonishing $1.8 trillion of cash on their balance sheets. By any calculation (for example, as a percentage of assets), this is higher than it has been in almost half a century. And yet, most corporations are not spending this money on new plants, equipment or workers. Were they to begin loosening their purse strings, hundreds of billions of dollars would start pouring through the economy. And these investments would likely have greater effect and staying power than a government stimulus. Now, let me be clear. I think there is a strong case for a temporary and targeted government stimulus. Both people and companies are being very cautious about spending. Right now, government spending is what’s keeping the economy afloat. Without a second stimulus, state and local governments will have to slash spending and raise taxes, which will produce a downward spiral of higher unemployment, slower growth, lower tax revenue, and a larger deficit. Joel Klein, the New York City schools chancellor, told me that when
the stimulus money runs out at the end of this year, he will be forced to lay off 5,000 teachers. Multiply that example a thousand times to get a sense of what 2011 could look like. But government spending can only be a bridge to private sector investment. The key to a sustainable recovery and robust economic growth is to get companies to start investing in America. So why are they reluctant, despite having mounds of cash lying around? I put this question to a series of business leaders over the past few days. They were all expansive on the topic, and all wanted to stay off the record, for fear of offending people in Washington. Economic uncertainty was the primary cause of their caution. “We’ve just been through a tsunami, and that produces caution,” one said to me. But in addition to economics, they kept talking about politics, about the uncertainty surrounding regulations and taxes. Some have even begun to speak out publicly. Jeffrey Immelt, the CEO of General Electric, complained recently that government was not in sync with entrepreneurs. The Business Roundtable, which had supported the Obama administration, has begun to complain about the myriad new laws and regulations being cooked up in Washington. One CEO said to me, “Almost every agency we deal with has announced some expansion of its authority, which naturally makes me concerned about what’s in store for us for the future.” Another pointed out that between the new health care bill, financial reform and possibly cap and trade, his company had lawyers working day and night trying to figure out the implications of all these new regulations. Lobbyists in Washington have been delighted by all
this new activity. “(Obama) exaggerates our power, but he increases demand for our services,” the superlobbyist Tony Podesta told The New York Times. Most of the business leaders I spoke to had voted for Barack Obama. They still admired him. Those who had met him thought he was unusually smart. But they all thought he was, at his core, antibusiness. When I would ask them for specifics, they pointed to the fact that Obama had no businessmen or -women in his Cabinet, that he rarely consulted with CEOs (except for photo ops), that he had almost no private sector experience, that he’d made clear that he thought government and nonprofit work was superior to work in the private sector. It all added up to a profound sense of distrust. Some of this is a product of chance.
through his committee, but deferred to the leadership and did not call it up for a floor vote. Now, he said, with the House’s action, “it makes no sense. There’s nothing for it to link up to.” The terrible irony in all this? More and more people are seeing that what this agonizing situation requires is a limited and temporary measure to pump more life into the economy and create jobs, along with a serious commitment to impose real spending discipline and hold down deficits in the long term — exactly what a five-year budget resolution could provide. Gregg and Conrad agree that such a resolution could “unleash huge energy back into the economy,” because corporations are hoarding $1.8 trillion in their treasuries and consumers are sitting on billions more. Of all the times for Congress to abandon its responsibility for long-term fiscal planning, this is the worst. David Broder is a columnist for The Washington Post.

Victor Davis Hanson is a classicist and historian at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University.
The economic crisis forced the government into expansions of its authority in dozens of areas, from finance to automobiles. But precisely because of these circumstances, Obama now needs to outline a growth and competitiveness agenda that will seem compelling to the American business community. This might sound like psychology more than economics, and the populist left will surely scream that the last thing we need to do is pander to business. But in fact the first thing we need is for these people to start spending their money — soon. As a leading New York businessman, who had publicly supported Obama during the campaign, said to me, “Their perception is our reality.” Fareed Zakaria writes for Newsweek magazine.
In a stunning move, Congress fails crucial budget test WASHINGTON — n June 30, the Congressional Budget Office issued its longterm outlook, predicting that deficits would come down for the next few years as the need for counterrecession spending eases and revenues improve. But then, it warned, “unsustainable” red ink would flow again, creating debts not seen since World War II. The very next day the House of Representatives passed a one-year budget resolution rather than the normal blueprint committing the government to a fiscal plan of at least five years. For all the publicity that goes to earmarks and other spending gimmicks, this was a far worse dereliction of duty. And the cynicism of the maneuver just made it worse. One of the casualties of this maneuver is the partnership that has developed between Kent Conrad of North Dakota, the chairman of the Senate Budget Committee, and Judd Gregg of New Hampshire, its ranking Republican. In January, they were co-sponsors of the legislation to create a National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility and Reform, whose recommendations for closing the budget gap would be guaranteed an up or down vote in Congress. The commission legislation was de-
O
DAVID BRODER feated when seven Republican senators who had initially co-sponsored it defected on the roll call. At that point, President Obama stepped in and rescued the idea, creating the commission by executive order. Now, in a stunning reversal, the Democrats are using the existence of the commission to justify their abandonment of their long-term budget responsibilities. Speaker Nancy Pelosi brazenly hailed the one-year substitute as “another key step … in restoring fiscal responsibility.” Rep. John Spratt of South Carolina, the House budget committee chairman, more modestly termed it “the functional equivalent of a traditional budget resolution.” “These are disciplines for the short run,” Spratt said, “while the fiscal commission works out recommendations for the longer run.” The Republicans, who had been rightly roasted for abandoning Conrad and Gregg on the vote to create the com-
For all the publicity that goes to earmarks and other spending gimmicks, this was a far worse dereliction of duty. And the cynicism of the maneuver just made it worse. mission, were not about to let the Democrats pull off this bait and switch. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, the top Republican on Spratt’s committee, said in a statement: “This is not a budget. The measure fails to meet the most basic, commonly understood objectives of any budget. It does not set congressional priorities; it does not align overall spending, tax, deficit and debt levels; and it does nothing to address the runaway spending of federal entitlement programs.” When I reached Gregg by phone, he said the commission — on which both he and Ryan serve, and to which the Democrats were ostensibly deferring — “remains a hope-and-prayer exercise.” Its work has barely begun, and it is not due to report until December. Gregg speculated that the reason the Democrats did not pass a real budget resolution is that “they do not want to let the American people see how bad the five-year numbers really are.” My next call was to Conrad, and I felt nothing but pity for him. He had actually passed a credible five-year budget
Israel’s blockade is pointless GAZA — ne useful place to mull Israel’s siege of Gaza is from inside an 800-foot-long smugglers’ tunnel burrowing under the Egyptian border. The tunnel, well-ventilated and well-lit with wooden supports, is big enough to walk along with a wheelbarrow full of contraband. But it’s more mechanized than that. A crew on the Egyptian side loads a large gurney with bags of cement, totaling one ton, and then an electric winch tows the gurney by cable through the tunnel to the outlet on the Gaza side. Another crew then loads the sacks onto a truck for delivery around Gaza. This tunnel operates around the clock, and all around me I saw other tunnel entrances — some big enough to drive cars through so that they end up in dealerships in Gaza. They were covered but weren’t seriously hidden, and nobody objected to an American journalist scrambling around — even though tunnels were everywhere. “I’d say there are 800 to 900 of these tunnels,” one tunnel owner told me. “They employ an average of maybe 30 people each.” The tunnel owners are aghast that Israel is talking about easing the siege and grumbled that they are already facing a huge drop in orders as a result. A significant number of tunnels have had to suspend work for the time being. I wish Israeli and American officials could see these tunnels, too. They might realize how counterproductive the siege of Gaza has been, arguably empowering Hamas rather than undercutting it. And while it’s not clear how far Israel’s relaxation will go, my reporting here leaves me convinced that Israel should lift the siege altogether. Visiting Gaza persuaded me, to my surprise, that Israel is correct when it denies that there is any full-fledged humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The tunnels have so undermined the Israeli blockade that shops are filled and daily life is considerably easier than when I last visited here two years ago. That makes it especially silly of Israel’s leadership to have squandered nine lives and its global reputation by seizing ships on the high seas — when the freight on that flotilla was probably less than what passes through the tunnels in a single hour. Then there’s another cost of the siege. It has eviscerated one of the greatest potential counterweights to Hamas: the traditional business community in Gaza. “There is no influence for businessmen anymore,” lamented Fouad Oada, a garment manufacturer. He has laid off 39 of the 40 employees he had when the siege began three years ago. That’s a common story. Some 4,000 businesses have closed in Gaza, according to Omar Shaban, an economist here. He warns that the business community, which preached moderation and peace and had close ties to Israel, has been nearly destroyed. Its place in society has been taken over, he said, by tunnel operators. One of Gaza’s most successful capitalists is Mohammed Telbani, who employed 350 people full time in a sprawling factory making biscuits, pretzels and ice cream for Gaza, the West Bank and parts of Israel. Now most of his factory floor is dark. “I’m not Hamas,” Telbani said. “I want to live with everybody. I want to make money. And I have 350 employees who just want a chance to work.” The problem for factory owners is that Israel doesn’t allow in most raw materials and doesn’t permit exports. Smuggling all imports by tunnels is prohibitively expensive. Exporting by tunnel isn’t feasible — so factories close. Sari Bashi, the executive director of Gisha, an Israeli human rights organization that monitors Gaza, says that the siege has probably strengthened Hamas. Partly that’s because Hamas taxes goods smuggled in tunnels and partly because it has become a more important source of jobs and welfare with the collapse of private businesses. Gaza is an enormously difficult problem, complicated by the kidnapping and detention of Staff Sgt. Gilad Shalit (and the unconscionable refusal of Hamas to allow him Red Cross visits). But the siege seems to have so embittered many Gazans that they welcome any chance to inflict woe on Israelis, including Shalit. So if the present policy has failed utterly — even backfired by possibly bolstering Hamas — let’s start over. It’s time not just to ease the siege of Gaza, but to end it once and for all.

Taylor, Burton love burns in new book

5. “The Help” by Kathryn Stockett (Putnam/Amy Einhorn)
What was in that last letter Richard Burton wrote to exwife Elizabeth Taylor on Aug. 2, 1984, just three days before his death? Taylor isn’t telling, but it’s the only one of 40 letters from Burton that she didn’t share with Sam Kashner and Nancy Schoenberger for “Furious Love,” their own hefty love letter to the tempestuous Hollywood couple whose tabloid-ready antics make Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie seem about as exciting as the farm couple from “American Gothic.” Entries from Burton’s diary also are peppered throughout the book, starting with the first time he laid eyes on La Liz at a party in 1953: “She was so extraordinarily beautiful that I nearly laughed out loud. … She was unquestionably gorgeous. … She was lavish. She was a dark unyielding largess (sic). She was, in short, too bloody much, and not only that, she was totally ignoring me.” For a womanizer like Burton, Taylor presented a challenge. The next time they met was on the set of “Cleopatra” in 1962, where she couldn’t help but notice him. In Rome they began a fire that burned far longer than the one that had Nero fiddling. Their scandalous affair — Burton had a wife, Sybil, and Taylor was still married to fading crooner Eddie Fisher — became a paparazzi circus, as photographers fol-

Faith Paulsen and her husband, Barton Sacks, read their Amazon Kindles at home in East Norriton, Pa. “Lightweight. Easy to use. Great for travel,” she wrote on Facebook.
E-readers are on the rise thanks to older readers By John Timpane The Philadelphia Inquirer
PHILADELPHIA — To e- or not to e-? That is the question facing millions of American book-lovers: Will you buy an e-reader to read books electronically? “Never!” cry those devoted to the physical book. “Already!” cry millions who own a Kindle, Nook, Sony Reader, iPad, Kobo or other e-reader. It’s early yet, and the data are churning about, but some see an unusual tech trend — led by mature users, 40 and above. And as in the non-e universe, women buy more books, men newspapers and magazines. Electronic texts have existed since at least 1971, when Michael Hart began the Gutenberg Project — and you could read them, too, if you could work a multistory, several-ton machine called a computer. For decades, people have been talking about the portable e-reader, and its time may finally be here. To be sure, as Kelly Gallagher, vice president of publishing services at R.R. Bowker, puts it, “We’re still in a 1.0 world with e-books. Fully 50 percent of all downloaded books are still free — but the e-books market is finally starting to be substantial.” Sony debuted its Reader in 2006, and since then has sold 10 million e-books, according to Chris Smythe, director of the Reader Store at Sony. In November 2007 came Kindle by Amazon. About 1.5 million Kindles had sold as of December — and the world took note when Amazon said that on Christmas Day, it sold more e-books than physical books, for the first time. Maria Hutchinson, of Haddonfield, N.J., writes via Facebook that her Barnes & Noble Nook is “easy to use. I get automatic updates that are easy to install. I use it all the time. I find the pricing to be about the same as a book.” Faith Paulsen, of East Norriton, Pa., writes via Facebook: “I got a Kindle as a gift, liked it so much we bought one for my husband. Lightweight. Easy to use. Great for travel.” Mat Kaplan of Long Beach, Calif., e-mails that he bought an Aluratek Libre for $100: “It came preloaded with 100 public-domain classics, so not a bad deal.”
A business trend According to the Association of American Publishers, 2009 e-book sales (in a year when plain old book sales ebbed 1.8 percent) increased 176.6 percent over 2008, to $169.5 million. Esales rocketed to $117.8 million through April of this year, at an annual rate double 2009’s. Americans now own an estimated 2.8 million e-readers — not counting computers, still the most common kind. At fewer than 3 percent of all books sold, e-books are still a small corner of the publishing market. But such rapid growth suggests that a new age of reading has begun. Makers of e-books are stingy with their numbers, and industry watchdogs disagree, but some say a large proportion of early
e-book owners — up to 66 percent in some surveys — are older than 40, with a “sweet spot” in the 35-to-54 range. Smythe of Sony said that “as of now, the whole e-book industry was trending older,” and Tony Astarita, vice president of digital products at Barnes & Noble, said that “our initial adoption was skewed to heavy readers and an older demographic.” Astarita expects, however, that as e-book prices moderate, “we’re going to see a more general audience.” Risa Becker, vice president of research operations for GfK MRI, reports on a survey released in May: “We’re not finding the more-mature trend, and only a very slight tendency for men to own e-readers more than women.” Yet for certain readers, such as the Kindle, early users are more frequently female. Smythe said, “We’re seeing a greater percentage of women than men; a lot of women are taking to this.” Becker said, “Women were 11 percent more likely than men to say they read an e-book, and men were 20 percent more likely to have read a magazine and 19 percent more likely to have read a newspaper.” E-book users, Becker said, tend to earn more than $100,000 a year, be college-educated, and be very Web and social-media savvy: “These people do everything on the Web. They spend more than 20 hours a week on it.” What are they reading? The e-Top 10 looks pretty much like the non-e. Last week, the top five at Sony Reader Store featured books by James Patterson, Janet Evanovich and Stieg Larsson. Larsson’s “Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” trilogy was 1-3 on the Kindle Top 100, and Evanovich and Patterson were in the top 10. You didn’t know libraries offer e-books? “That’s what’s frustrating,” said library consultant Cynthia Orr, from her offices in Cleveland. “It’s been around for a while now, and people aren’t aware of it.” She helped invent the country’s first public e-checkout system in 2003. Called Overdrive, it is used at hundreds of libraries across the land, 11,000 worldwide. It checked out a record 1.2 million e-items in June. As a librarian, Orr has met many for whom e-books are nothing less than a godsend. One group is people with disabilities. “One man, who could see a little but was legally blind,” she said, “called to say he was so grateful for the service. From his home, he could check out titles himself — and adjust the type size so he could read it.”
with the option to go to press later. “We went from zero to live in nine months,” said Katherine Orr, vice president of public relations for Harlequin. Chief executive officer “Donna Hayes and the rest of us felt this was the future, and we already have a devoted readership who’ve been downloading our titles for a long time.” Some are saddened by the notion of an all-e-world. Rochelle Gurstein, author of “The Repeal of Reticence,” speaks for many when she laments that “we’re losing the physical materiality of books, the memories attached to them. For people who love books, it’s not just what’s in them; it’s all the things we associate with them, who we were when we first read them, who we are now. It’s hard to write all of that into an electronic text.” The book is still a superior invention — but for many reasons, some environmental, its place is now being challenged. In this bucking-bronco market, questions abound. Will younger consumers, who read fewer books, ever really warm to e-readers, preferring the handheld media they grew up with? “And you have to wonder,” Cynthia Orr said, “will they stick with e-readers, or graduate to something like an iPad, with multiple features, and e-reading is only one among many?” The iPad is one potential game-changer. Another is the Google Editions eBook Store, scheduled to go live any moment now, Google-big, Google-strong, to square off against Amazon and other e-vendors. Meantime, one local Kindle user just downloaded the vast, six-volume unabridged “Three Musketeers” for 99 cents. Hard to curl up by the fire with an ereader, but still, there they are, Athos, Porthos, Aramis and d’Artagnan. Print or e-, they’re still all for one, one for all.

The paper challenge After initial resistance, and still wrestling with pricing, royalties and rights, publishers are moving to surf the e-wave.

Harlequin just went live with the Carina Press, which offers books in electronic form first,
lowed them everywhere but the bedroom. Even after their subsequent marriage — and divorce, remarriage and second divorce — they attracted crowds wherever they went, usually with an entourage of at least 30 people (children, servants, friends) and beasts (Taylor had dogs, cats and even a bush baby). Their backgrounds were decidedly different: Burton grew up in Wales, the son of an alcoholic coal miner, while much of Taylor’s childhood was spent on movie sets. Their passions, however, were very much alike. Taylor, the epitome of femininity and elegance in films like the 1951 drama “A Place in the Sun,” was Burton’s equal when it came to drinking, swearing and sex. Their 11 film pairings now seem like a window into their real lives — the illicit love of “Cleopatra,” the battle of the sexes in “The Taming of the Shrew” (1967) and, most telling, the boozing and brawling in “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” (1966). Ultimately, Burton’s alcoholism, and the verbal abuse that resulted, proved the biggest obstacle in their two marriages. The saddest part of “Furious Love” is seeing Burton’s health and his career deteriorate as his drinking escalates. (He made many attempts at sobriety, but Taylor’s constant drinking made it a losing battle, until Suzy Hunt, the woman he left Taylor for, came along.) Yet even after their divorces and marriages to others, there was a fire between Taylor and Burton that no one else could put out.

Author gives unsparing account of childhood “Where’s My Wand? One Boy’s Magical Triumph over Alienation and Shag Carpeting” by Eric Poole (Putnam, 263 pgs., $25)
By Amanda St. Amand St. Louis Post-Dispatch
If you pick up Eric Poole’s “Where’s My Wand?” hoping to read about St. Louis of the 1970s and ’80s, you’ll be disappointed. If, however, you expect what sounds like an exaggerated, but mostly truthful, account of a Midwestern boy with a passive dad, cont rol-f rea k mother and the dawning realization that he is gay, you’re in luck. The book starts with the family moving into its St. Louis home. Anyone who came of age in the era will nod at his descriptions of shag carpeting, fake wood paneling and basements “finished” by a good amount of both. Of course, the family had a living room “with powder blue shag carpet and white hand-flocked wallpaper,” but no one entered it. Ever. Which helps set the stage for some of the battles Poole and his older sister fought through the years. These are the pages that come to life. Poole also is unsparing in describing his own oddities, including his devotion to the character Endora from the “Bewitched” television show. He uses a white chenille bedspread to pray for magic, God or a combination of them to help him make more friends, play a better trumpet or somehow reconcile himself with who he is. Poole is unsparing about the cruelty of children and teenagers, who called him One Ear because he was partially deaf, Pee-Stain after a bathroom accident and then the milder Cess-Poole — just because. Even though Poole’s book is unflinching, it is infused with love. His parents show up for his shining moment at a band concert, defend him before boastful parents of other children and do their best to raise him right. As much as the book made me squirm at moments, it also delighted me to see him overcome and even thrive. I would have liked more about some St. Louis landmarks, but a good story is a good story — regardless of the stage and setting.
Foreclosure Continued from F1 We thought ourselves lucky to be able to buy a house before prices rose any higher. Our monthly payment was steep, but we could afford it, and we were confident the house would appreciate and our incomes would grow over time. And for a time, they did. In November 2007, I was promoted to the business desk at The Bulletin, and my wife’s day care business continued to do well. In March 2008, I began covering real estate and banking for The Bulletin. My first story was about a national study that had ranked Bend the most overvalued market in the country in terms of home prices. I scoffed at the suggestion and tried to find errors in the study’s methodology. Surely they can’t quantify Bend’s quality of life, I thought, the thing bringing young families and retirees to the High Desert who would help keep home prices stable. Besides, even if home prices were overvalued, we thought it didn’t matter. We were planning to own our home for a long time. We would wait out a downturn. I remember bragging to friends that if the economy was in a recession, I didn’t see it. In July 2008, while doing research for a story on Deschutes County’s growing foreclosure crisis, I combed through each of the 788 notices of default that had been filed in the county through the first six months of that year, trying to find patterns. I had finally learned what a subprime mortgage was, and was certain it — along with unscrupulous investors — must be the twin culprits behind the astonishing rise in default filings. I found plenty of examples of each. I also saw names of people I knew. The recession was suddenly personal. As the summer wore on, I paid more attention to the increasingly dark economic news from here and elsewhere. The husband of one of my wife’s day care families lost his job, but they continued to drop off their child every day. We were still OK, but the economic clouds on the horizon began to frighten me. In September 2008, Madison, my then-3-year-old daughter, had a seizure. An ambulance

Scott Sigler’s techno-horror mash-up of a novel, “Ancestor,” has a little bit of everything: recklessly ambitious medical research, predator monsters bursting from the bellies of host cattle, heavily armed scientists and paramilitary types fighting the creatures and each other at a remote island facility, and even a love story. There’s nothing fundamentally new about it, structurally or stylistically. Best-selling authors James Rollins, Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child have written similar books. But the way that Sigler has become one of the genre’s new heavy hitters is unique. The San Francisco-based author, whose 2008 novel “Contagious” was a New York Times best-seller, gives away everything that he writes first as a free online audio book, which is serialized in a weekly podcast on his website (www.scottsigler.com). Sigler answered a few questions by phone.
Q.
One character in “Ancestor” is an aspiring writer who plans to give away his vampire romance novels on the Internet. He’s borrowing from your playbook, isn’t he? I put that little inside joke in the book for fans who have been following me for years. Giving away all your books online to prove to the audience that you tell stories worthy of them spending their money is a radical departure from the way publishing has worked for 100 years. But I’m living proof that it works.”
A.
Through the first six months of 2010, there were 2,053 notices of default filed in Deschutes County, compared with 1,735 filed in the same period in 2009, an increase of more than 18 percent.
whisked her to the hospital in the middle of the night, and she was administered a muscle relaxant. Her breathing began to falter and the emergency room staff wheeled her into the intensive care unit. Minutes before beginning a tracheal intubation, a doctor rightly figured my daughter was allergic to the muscle relaxant and gave her medication to relieve her reaction. The surgery was avoided. My daughter was subsequently diagnosed with epilepsy, which has proven since to be manageable. But the episode was the first in what became a string of random medical events in my family that collectively began to cast an ominous shadow over our household finances. In October 2008, the so-called subprime mortgage crisis swelled into a full-blown financial meltdown that threatened the whole economy. Few businesses were spared financial pain, including The Bulletin, which was able to avoid layoffs but was forced to make wage and salary cuts that remain in effect. Through that winter, the economic outlook looked bleak, but we held on. My wife’s business was down, but we were still able to make our house payments. In June 2009, as we were packing the car to go to the Sisters Rodeo, my neighbor walked over to say he was letting his house go to foreclosure. The foreclosure crisis that had swept through the region had now landed on our street, staring at us from our kitchen window. In the ensuing months, more homes in the neighborhood went into default, their dead lawns the telltale sign. A few families left my wife’s day care business, citing lost jobs. One mom opened her own day care business. But, still, we were able to make our mortgage payments. In October 2009, my wife gave birth to Rowan, a boy, our third child. Erin had scheduled two weeks off to take care of our new son, and it was a happy time in our home. But when it was time to reopen the day care business, everyone in the family came down with the swine flu, and my wife was forced to close for another week. Two families, unable to manage or afford a third week of making contingent day care plans, left to find more reliable
day care. My wife’s business was down to one family. She began looking for a job to replace her day care income. That same month, I called our lender to inquire about the federal government’s new Making Home Affordable loan modification program. I first inquired about refinancing but was quickly told we didn’t qualify based on our income. However, we did qualify for a loan modification. The lender sent us a loan modification application and told us to keep making payments, which we did. I filled out the application and sent it back, along with an inchthick batch of financial documents to prove our hardship. A few weeks later, our lender sent us a late notice, saying we had missed a payment. I checked my bank records, proudly scribbled the number of the redeemed check I had sent them and impatiently waited on hold for 30 minutes to chew someone out. The third customer service representative finally explained what had happened. Turns out the lender had indeed cashed the check but didn’t apply it toward our mortgage. The lender was instead holding it and would apply it to my new trial payment of $1,552 when my trial loan modification period began in December. As it was explained, by waiting a month to apply our payment, the lender technically put the mortgage into default, which was how the lender triggered its loan modification process. I was told to ignore the late notice. Swallowing my anger and trying not to worry about the credit scores we had worked so hard to preserve, I told myself the means justified the end: a reduced mortgage payment. In the next few weeks, we received another late notice and at least two calls from the lender, telling us we were late on our mortgage payment. It seemed the lender was just as confused as we were. In November, we learned the lender had sold our loan to a mortgage service company, which promptly sent us a late notice. On the phone with the mortgage service company, I tried to explain our situation, that our mortgage was in a loan modification trial and that the money sent in November to the old lender was to be used to satisfy the first

‘Ancestor’ author puts science on steroids By David Martindale

THE BULLETIN • Sunday, July 11, 2010 F5
Q.
Are the film and music industries wasting time and money trying to combat piracy and online content sharing? Should they be embracing these fans instead? Piracy is just free advertising. Of the people getting this stuff for free, a certain percentage will say, ‘This is exactly the kind of content I like.’ Then they’ll become fans, and then they’ll become customers.
A. Q.
The “fringe” science described in the book involves a genetically engineered animal whose organs can be implanted into people with no chance of transplant rejection. Is this kind of research happening today? What I do with my books is take four or five different cutting-edge scientific disciplines, put them together and then put them all on steroids. So the science of the book is completely real. I’ve just bumped it up three or four levels.
A. Q. A.
Today’s science fiction is tomorrow’s science fact. As a writer, is it hard to stay ahead? It’s very surreal. This book is an example of that. When I wrote the first draft in 1995, a lot of the stuff in this book wasn’t real. But now that it’s coming out in hardcover, it’s not science fiction anymore.
Q. A.
Is this the genre you plan to stay in for years to come? I don’t think I’ve got a romance novel brewing in me anywhere. I’ve got about 20 of these hard-science spooky novels ready to put out. Maybe after that, I’ll get in touch with my feminine side.

payment of the trial loan modification, due in December. The company said it had no record of a loan modification and that I would have to reapply. I resigned myself to filling out more forms and making copies of nearly every financial record in my desk drawer. Christmas was stressful, but we thought we were on the right track. We hadn’t been careless with our money. Our only vacation was a weeklong road trip to my parents’ house in California to celebrate my little sister’s wedding, and a long weekend on the coast in a KOA campground. Our one splurge when we bought the house was to commission a $1,500 painting of Smith Rock from one of my favorite local artists, Victoria Shuck. By Jan. 1, our finances looked grim. It didn’t seem we would be able to make our trial mortgage payment, buy groceries and chip away at our mountain of medical bills. The answer came quickly. My wife’s last day care family gave notice that they intended to leave. They cited the need to save money, saying their extended family would watch their three children. We faced a moment of truth. When families have faced this predicament in past years, the obvious solution was to put the house up for sale and use the proceeds to either pay off bills or buy a smaller home. The recession made that impossible. We consulted our Realtor and figured our home had lost 41 percent of its purchase value. It was worth roughly $220,000 and we owed roughly $280,000. We were under water, owing more on the home than it was worth. We decided I would have to find a new job and would probably have to move to a major metropolitan area to do so. With

unemployment hovering around 15 percent in Deschutes County, it didn’t seem likely we’d be able to stay. So we stopped making our mortgage payment. We could no longer afford our home. Last month, our lender filed a notice of default. We’ll lose the home in October, in an auction on the courthouse steps. We have considered a short sale, or a sale of the home for less than the amount owed, but are weary. It’s a tedious process that has its own pitfalls, but mostly we didn’t want to sell the home and spend money renting if we were intending to relocate. We’ll become a statistic. One more default in a nation beset by foreclosures unlike any time since the Great Depression. According to the Mortgage Bankers Association, 14.01 percent of all U.S. mortgages were delinquent in the first quarter of 2010, the latest data available. One of those was “The Big Peach.” Three weeks ago, I also was able, after six months of searching, to find a temporary job in Seattle with a large technology company. Later this month, our family will move to the Emerald City and what we hope are greener pastures. We’ll rent, of course, probably for another five to seven years, the time it takes for our credit to recuperate from the damage from a foreclosure. Leaving Bend will be bittersweet. We have many friends here, and wonderful memories. But we are off to find new opportunities in the big city, and that is something to be excited about.

Aloof philosopher faces dark temptations in novel “The Executor” by Jesse Kellerman (Putnam, 352 pgs., $25.95)

Rather than car chases or gun battles, “The Executor” is, at times, a talky story. As a teenager, Joseph left his vio-

An ad seeking “a serious conversationalist” brings him to the Cambridge mansion of the elderly Alma Spielman. She just wants someone to debate with a few hours every day, and she’s willing to pay for it. Joseph quickly moves into
the Victorian mansion’s spacious guest quarters. But his comfort is threatened by Alma’s nasty nephew, who constantly pops up, demanding money. Kellerman builds “The Executor” to a crescendo as the author shows how a man who essentially thinks of himself as good can easily cross to a dark side.

Newest bio focuses on Dickinson family feuds “Lives Like Loaded Guns: Emily Dickinson and Her Family’s Feuds” by Lyndall Gordon (Viking, 491 pgs., $32.95)
By Carmela Ciuraru Newsday
Why can’t we leave Emily Dickinson alone? Since her death in 1886, the iconic American poet remains just as elusive and unknowable, still an obsessive object of scholarly scrutiny. The legend of the hermetic woman in white persists. In various iterations, Dickinson — who left behind nearly 1,800 unpublished poems — has been cast as a lesbian, madwoman, passionate genius, feminist, lonely spinster and scorned lover. Each new biographer seems intent on “rescuing” her from earlier portrayals. Lyndall Gordon’s “Lives Like Loaded Guns” arrives just nine years after “My Wars Are Laid Away in Books” by Alfred Habegger, an excellent and lively portrait of Dickinson. Gordon’s account, however, is the first to explore fully her mysterious bouts of chronic illness, and her brother Austin’s toxic adulterous relationship with Mabel Loomis Todd. The author examines the explosive feuds that erupted in its wake, revealing the long-lasting, grievous consequences. The Dickinsons were a highly prominent and influential clan in Amherst, Mass. Entangled in a “lethal mix of passion, jealousy and rage,” they’d be perfect candidates for a reality TV show were they alive today. Although Austin’s affair with Mabel isn’t news, Gordon tells the whole story, casting Mabel Todd as a conniving, ambitious villain — the “Lady Macbeth of Amherst” who wrested control of Dickinson’s work, cultivating the legend of the poet as a feeble creature. The young, married Mabel arrived in Amherst in 1881 and initially befriended both Austin and his wife, Susan, who was Emily’s confidante and most important reader. According to Gordon, Mabel fantasized about Susan’s death so that she could become Austin’s wife. Mabel recognized Dickinson’s genius, but her heavy-handed edits of the poems distorted them, rendering them sentimental rather than transgressive. The ToddDickinson descendants would battle over claiming the “real” Dickinson long after the poet died — not to mention fighting for royalties. Gordon’s biography also offers a major revelation: evidence that Dickinson suffered from epilepsy. The author makes her case partly through prescriptions that Dickinson received (the papers survive) and reinterprets poems such as “I felt a Cleaving in my Mind —” to describe the poet’s condition. Gordon, a gifted storyteller, charts the ugly family dramas not to exploit them, but to prove how truly damaging they were to the poet’s legacy. And Dickinson is shown as a woman whose withdrawal from public life was a willful means of control, rather than mere helplessness.

How does Deschutes stack up? By David Holley The Bulletin
30-year loan rates fall to new low, again The average 30-year fixedrate loan fell to a new record of 4.57 percent last week, Freddie Mac reports. The rate, down from 4.58 percent the week before and 5.2 percent last year at this time, was the lowest in the 39-year history of the mortgage giant’s weekly survey. The 30-year mortgage rates have now fallen to new lows three consecutive weeks. The average rate for 15-year fixed loans, however, rose slightly to 4.07 percent from 4.04 percent.
Jobless claims waver as recovery slows Applications for unemployment aid have been fluctuating from week to week, offering an uncertain view of layoffs and the job market. First-time requests for jobless aid recently dropped to one of their lowest level since early May, the government reported, erasing increases made in the last two months. Still, economists say it’s hard to detect a trend in one week of declines. Initial claims have seesawed for several weeks and are not much lower than they were in January.
Merck plans layoffs for 15% of work force The $41 billion merger last year of drug giants Merck and Schering-Plough has a human cost for pharmaceutical industry employees. Merck plans to lay off about 15 percent of its work force — about 15,000 people — over the next two years as part of a global merger restructuring, according to an announcement the company issued last week. Merck said it also planned to close eight research and eight manufacturing sites. The restructuring is expected to save $2.7 billion to $3.1 billion in 2012, the company said.
In rush to bonds, little for investors to cheer In the first five months of the year, $134.9 billion went into bond mutual funds, compared with $14.4 billion into stock funds. That compares with $113.7 billion into bonds last year and $11.2 billion out of stocks. But bond investors didn’t have much to be happy about in the second quarter. Bonds beat stocks, but only government bonds with long maturities delivered good performance. Meanwhile, oncehot junk bonds crashed. — From wire reports

One similarity and one difference between the two put Deschutes County at a competitive disadvantage to Boulder County, Colo., for attracting businesses and workers, according to Ben Alexander, associate director of Bozeman, Mont.-based Headwaters Economics, who released a study Thursday analyzing why Deschutes has suffered so much dur-
ing the recession. The similarity: housing prices, because they have dropped drastically in Deschutes County since the recession began and risen slightly in Boulder County, bringing the two markets relatively close together. By the end of 2009, the housing price index for Deschutes was 189, while Boulder was slightly higher at 201, according to Alexander’s study. Additionally, Deschutes County’s housing price
index was between 2 and 36 points higher than two other “peer” counties Alexander compared Deschutes with for the study. The difference: Deschutes County’s wages remain $5 less per hour than Boulder — in March they were $22.10 per hour on average versus $27.40 in Boulder, according to the study. Deschutes wages are higher than the two other peer counties in Utah and Idaho. See Deschutes / G3

started as health problems.
At first, he didn’t know what was wrong. He figured the stress of working long weeks as a supervisor at Jeld-Wen was giving him high blood pressure, so he took a lower-paying job with Pacific Lumber — then Universal Lumber — at the beginning of the housing boom in 1999. Despite his pay cut, he and his wife were able to comfortably afford payments on their single-wide manufactured home in Deschutes River Woods. Soon they refinanced their $35,000 mortgage from Countrywide Home Loans in order to attach a $60,000 addition. But Lane’s blood pressure was high and he was always tired. He ended up in the hospital with internal bleeding, and doctors discovered his pancreas was not making some enzymes necessary to digest food. He also has kidney disease, pulmonary disease and diabetes. His wife, Linda, has a heart arrhythmia — a condition where “her heart flip-flops and starts beating twice as fast,” he said. They had health insurance, but the bills for doctors and prescriptions were piling up. The couple took out a second mortgage to pay their medical and credit card bills — a safe bet because home prices were rising, the mortgage broker assured them — but their debts still mounted. They refinanced into an adjustable rate mortgage, and refinanced again before it could reset to a higher rate. “I was digging myself into a hole,” Lane said. Bankruptcies spike later than other indicators in a recession and continue to go up after the economy starts to recover, economists say, because people exhaust all their options before filing. The Lanes had been struggling for years when Lane got laid off by Pacific Lumber in 2008. He got a job as a delivery driver, but found he could no longer do physical labor. He worked in a call center, then got laid off. “That put me on unem-

ployment, and the unemployment wasn’t much,” he said. “And so I said, ‘We’re going to lose the house.’” But the house had lost 30 percent of its value, a Realtor told him, and probably wouldn’t sell anyway. He and his wife were only earning $1,800 a month at the time, short of the $2,200 they needed to live and pay bills. That’s when he opened the phone book and called a bankruptcy attorney. “I threw up my hands and said, ‘I can’t do this anymore,’” he said. Personal bankruptcies more than tripled in Central Oregon between 2007 and 2009, and 2010 is on track to be worse than last year. Try getting through to a bankruptcy attorney in Deschutes or Crook County, and it’s obvious they’re slammed. Bankruptcy filings are “increasing, increasing, increasing,” said James Powers, a Prineville attorney who has been doing bankruptcies for more than 30 years. “I haven’t seen the light in the end of the tunnel. … It’s not healthy for society to have as many as we’re having now. I would hope that it would slow down, but I haven’t seen the slowdown.” See Bankruptcies / G5

How Les Schwab came to be known as the ‘pleasant creditor’
C
ustomers of Les Schwab Tire Centers who file for bankruptcy may be pleasantly surprised when they discover the company’s customer service policy extends to the indebted. The Bend-based tire giant is well-known for engaging with customers long after other creditors have turned them over to collections agencies, local bankruptcy lawyers said.
Oregonians who file for bankruptcy never have to go to court because lawyers file the petition electronically and a judge reviews it from Portland or Eugene. But the debtor is required to make one appearance, at the “meeting of creditors,” where a trustee appointed by the court will ask the debtor to swear to his or her finances under oath.

Housing pain won’t end soon

t’s easy to become numb to the mountain of mortgage defaults piling up in Deschutes County — 2,053 through the first six months of the year, which is on pace to break last year’s record of 3,507 defaults. The numbers are staggering and reflect larger problems with the national and regional economies. It’s also easy to forget that behind these statistics are the faces of families whose lives have been turned upside down through bad luck, not because they took out risky loans or couldn’t hold a job, or other similar behavior. Case in point: Former Bulletin business reporter Andrew Moore, whose story appears today on Page F1. What makes his story riveting is that it applies to so many other people — or could. It’s easy to picture oneself in his shoes if something goes awry, like a spouse losing a job, a medical problem, a prolonged pay cut. Moore, like many others, found himself underwater on his loan and had to decide between supporting his family or paying for a house whose value plunged and won’t recover for many years. With a pipeline full of defaults, most of which will convert to foreclosures, downward pressure on housing prices will continue. For people trying to sell, that means coming to grips with the painful reality of the marketplace: values are way down and equity has vanished. One Realtor I spoke with last week doesn’t expect any price appreciation for at least two years, with perhaps another 5 to 15 percent decline coming in that period. (Bend’s median sales price is 52 percent off its May 2007 peak.) Another believes prices for lower-priced homes have bottomed out, but sees more erosion for homes priced above $300,000. Valerie Hunter, principal broker and owner of H&H Preferred Real Estate, who specializes in selling bank-owned properties throughout Oregon, says there are two more years of foreclosures coming on the market as today’s defaults become tomorrow’s bank-owned real estate. “Right now, I’m on average, 35 new properties a month from banks and it’s only climbing,” Hunter said. She thinks it could be another 10 years before the market reaches median sales prices it saw in 2007. Everything goes in 10- to 15-year cycles, she said. Steve Scott, a Realtor and owner of Steve Scott Realtors, has worked in this market for 37 years and last winter likened the real estate mess to a python digesting a pig — it takes time. He guessed then the pig might be 60 percent through, but said last week that it’s moved back a little toward the mouth as broader economic pressures continue to boost numbers of problem properties. “I don’t think the slippery slope is over,” he said of near-term pricing declines. “The speed of it has slowed down. My hope is in another two years that slip will stop, but I’m not … optimistic about appreciation anytime before then.” Back to Moore’s story. When someone in a family loses a job, it’s difficult, if not impossible, to find comparable replacement income. Unemployment in Central Oregon ranges from 14.2 to 17 percent and isn’t expected to improve much for a few years. Employers are reluctant to hire or raise pay until the economy shows sustainable improvement. The lack of jobs reflects an economy that still isn’t diverse enough in its employment. The correlation between unemployment and foreclosure rates in Oregon is clear in the Oregon Homeownership Stabilization Initiative proposal the state sent the federal government on how it will spend $88 million in federal money to help Oregonians avoid foreclosure. The report says the percentage of loans in foreclosure and 90 or more days delinquent in January in Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties was 9.9, 9 and 8.5 percent, respectively. Those three top the state. The percentage increase in unemployment rate from 2007 to 2009 in the counties: 188.7, 198 and 119.4 percent, respectively. Ugly with a capital U. Oregon envisions helping at least 6,300 struggling homeowners over two to three years, perhaps launching some programs by year’s end. I hope it works better than the federal loan modification program. Still, this area will see more families lose their homes and have to start over — often in places more likely to provide work at decent pay. Bend is worse off for losing families like the Moores.

TOURISM ON THE GULF OF MEXICO
Comedy spills into Florida’s ads (but not at the Gulf’s expense) By Catharine Skipp BONITA SPRINGS, Fla. — During Dan Aho’s vacation to the Florida Gulf Coast, he slurped seawater, spirited off shells from an old lady and destroyed a sand castle in progress, often snug in the most horrifying of tourist tog — the dreaded red Speedo. He would seem to be giving visitors to the Sunshine State a bad name, except that his goal is actually to bring more of them here. He is the star, after all, of the most ambitious and humorous effort yet to keep Florida’s tourism empire alive despite the oil spill in the northern Gulf of Mexico. “I’m kind of bummed,” said Aho, packing up after shooting his last television advertisement here, in which he refuses to leave the beaches of Lee County, Fla., for the plane home. “You get used to a place like this in 10 days.” In real life, Aho is a sweet and thoughtful gym administrator from Chicago. His skin tones are sugar white, and he has a Northerner’s squint in the sun. But as a character trying to prove that Florida’s southwest coast is “Still Pristine,” as the advertising campaign is called, Aho is goofy, overeager and a wee bit annoying. Aho is the progeny of Gary Mueller, creative director with BVK, a Milwaukee advertising agency that sells itself with tag lines like “doing the impossible is fun.” When Mueller pitched the campaign to the Lee County Visitor and Convention Bureau, Mueller was picturing more Steve Irwin than Steve Carell for the advertisements. But when Aho, an improv actor by night, started faking calls via “shell phone” during the casting, Mueller changed his concept. It was the perfect fit for an advertising campaign designed for madcap speed. There were a mere 10 days from concept development to production on location on June 21, with a video-style run-and-gun operation. For nine days, the spots were shot at daybreak, then edited and uploaded before most tourists had dug out their sunscreen. Most of the rest of the days (and nights) were spent scouting the next day’s beach, corralling talent and props and roughing out a script. On the most chaotic day, the planned island location was underwater at shoot time. They scrambled by boat to a nearby is-
Old technology foils bid to lower wages By Cathy Bussewitz SACRAMENTO, Calif. — As the Terminator, Arnold Schwarzenegger was the technology of the future, feared by humans. As governor, he’s being foiled by the technology of the past. For the second time in two years, Schwarzenegger has ordered most state workers’ pay cut to the federal minimum wage because lawmakers missed their deadline to fix the state’s $19 billion budget deficit. The Legislature’s failure to act has left the state without a spending plan as the new fiscal year begins. A state appellate court recently ruled in Schwarzenegger’s favor, but the state controller, who issues state paychecks, says he can’t comply. One reason given by Controller John Chiang, a Democrat elected in 2006: The state’s computer system can’t handle the technological challenge of restating paychecks to the federal minimum of $7.25 an hour. Chiang cited ruling a week ago by the 3rd District Court of Appeals, which said “unfeasibility” would excuse him from complying with Schwarzenegger’s minimum wage order. He said a fix to the state’s computerized payroll system won’t be ready until October 2012. Meanwhile, more than 200,000 state workers remain in limbo about the size of their July pay-

checks while Chiang asks the court for guidance on how to proceed. If wages are cut to $7.25 an hour, employees will be reimbursed once a budget is signed. John Harrigan, who served as a division chief for the state’s payroll services from 1980 to 2006, said upgrading the system would be complicated, time-consuming and expensive. He said it could be done, but not without violating the federal Fair Labor Standards Act and substantially altering the payroll process. “It’s not something that you can take lightly and do overnight,” said Harrigan, who also served as chief deputy controller from 2000 to 2002. “You have all the collective bargaining for civil servants and (state universities) that have to be taken into consideration. ... It’s very complicated. It would take considerable effort.” The state’s payroll system was designed more than 60 years ago and was last revamped in 1970, Hallye Jordan, state controller’s office spokeswoman, said. A report by the nonpartisan legislative analyst’s office said an

overhaul of the state’s computerized payroll system was proposed by the controller’s office in 2004. A year later, the Legislature approved $130 million for the effort, called the 21st Century Project. Work to complete the project has been postponed by the controller’s office repeatedly over the past several years, said Lynelle Jolley, spokeswoman for the governor’s Department of Personnel Administration. “They had various setbacks that only they can explain,” she said. With all the difficulties that would be involved, some technical experts seem perplexed that the governor wants to go through with the order. “The state isn’t saving any money on paying them minimum wage, because they ultimately have to make them whole,” Harrigan said. “So what’s the point?” The average state employee makes $65,000 annually, according to the state Department of Personnel Administration. A cut to minimum wage would mean state workers would make the equivalent of $15,000 a year.

land, only to find the camera lens fogged from humidity. “We had 15 minutes to be rolling; the light was starting to come up,” Mueller said. “We ended up shooting it on a flip cam.” The advertisements should probably be rebranded the Aho campaign. The character has garnered nearly the buzz — and business — that Thomas Edison did when he brought electricity to Fort Myers. “We’ve seen an increase of 16 percent in traffic to the website in the first week of the campaign,” said Tamara Pigott, executive director of the Lee County visitors bureau. “And 32 percent up from the same time last month.” While hotel occupancy and reservation rates will not be on a spread sheet for weeks, word has been trickling in that the campaign was producing a bump. “A gentleman stopped by our information booth at the airport and said he saw the ad and bought the trip,” Pigott said. Another man said he saw the spot with Aho cavorting on the untainted beach with a trophymounted tarpon and loved it so much he forwarded it to friends in Washington in an attempt to plan a fishing trip. The $500,000 campaign, including $380,000 in media buys, was paid for with emergency funds from the visitors bureau. Commercials have run on “World News with Diane Sawyer” on

ABC, on the Weather Channel and in local markets in Florida. Mueller said most advertisements were from “everybody’s tourism playbook, with old, beautiful footage and a voiceover saying, ‘We are open.’” He said consumers were tuning out that message over news media reports of oil and tar. “You talk to your friends in the rest of the country,” he said, and “to them, all of Florida is one place. Here, we aren’t competing with other destinations but competing with the evening news.” The visitors bureau has received $500,000 from the state, part of BP’s $25 million grant to Florida for tourism marketing. It will use the money to re-edit the Aho campaign for future advertisements and possibly bring him back (fans can vote for his return at www.fortmyers-sanibel.com). At dawn on his last morning here, Aho, 31, had more energy than a busload of preschoolers after a visit to the local chocolatier Norman Love Confections. In the previous commer-

cials, local residents had been recruited, as well as the weatherman Willard Scott. A Fort Myers body builder and personal trainer, AJ Sims, 21, appeared comparing biceps with Aho; a well-known shell collector, Ethel Sinow, 80, was recruited to chase Aho down the beach after he took a valuable shell and darted away. But this last shoot would be just Aho and the crew that brought him. It was clear neither Aho nor his comedic persona were ready to leave. With the heat of the day just starting to climb, Aho churned down the sand, his voice just barely audible in the wind. “You can’t make me go,” he said. “You’re not my Dad.” The Speedo had not been seen all week; he had almost gone native.

Deschutes Continued from G1 With housing prices higher than peer counties, and wages lower than a county with comparable housing prices, Alexander’s study says Deschutes County has less affordable housing, making it more difficult for the area to attract businesses and a work force. “I think it’s just a crucial point,” Alexander said to a crowd of about 100 people at Economic Development for Central Oregon’s annual meeting, where he released the study. “You’re an outlier.” To solve affordability issues, Alexander said Bend should build a wider variety of housing within the city to prevent people from looking to outlying areas for affordable homes. That will make it easier to retain the workers Bend and Deschutes County need for future business growth, he said.
Rob Kerr / The Bulletin
Ben Alexander’s presentation Thursday at St. Charles Bend examined why Deschutes has suffered more than comparable counties across a broad region of the Western United States.
Study’s suggestions Alexander’s work was funded by Headwaters Economics and sponsored by EDCO. The intent of the study was to determine why Central Oregon went from being a high-flier a few years ago to an example of what doesn’t work economically, Alexander said. Like his recommendation on improving living affordability, Alexander also said planning now for major projects, such as a four-year university and public amenities, is important for growth later. Boulder County has a fouryear university and a world-renowned trail system, Alexander said. Through business incubation programs at the university, local business owners have been able to produce about 10 new businesses a year, he said. And the trail system, among other
aspects about living in Boulder, keeps people wanting to stay there. People stay in Deschutes County for similar reasons. But local officials must start developing plans for public amenities and a four-year university now, even if they don’t come to fruition for many years, he said. “It feels good to be in a place where people want to be,” Alexander said. Fiscal tools such as loan programs, development funds and tax-fee abatements also are important to helping businesses grow, he said. As businesses do begin to expand, it’s important that they also have a skilled employee pool to choose from, he said. Better networking in the area will help companies connect with
Imbalances
income narrowed. The U.S. savings rate, which was less than 2 percent of disposable income before the crisis, spiked to 6.4 percent in May 2009, as Americans chose to hoard cash rather than spend it, largely out of fear. But in the year since, spending has risen faster than incomes, and the savings rate has edged back down to 4 percent. At first glance, Americans seem to be cutting back on their debts. Total household debt has fallen 2.7 percent, or $374 billion, since peaking in the second quarter of 2008. But, as the Wall Street Journal recently noted, U.S. banks and lenders have written off almost exactly the same amount of loans as unrecoverable. That means, on balance, that Americans are not paying down what they owe in any meaningful way. In the United States, policies to deal with the economic crisis have contributed to the trend: deficit spending on government stimulus programs, incentives to buy automobiles and various subsidies for borrowing money to buy a house. China, meanwhile, is continuing to encourage its exports by keeping its currency cheap, though Beijing said last month it could allow a gradual adjustment of the value.
Continued from G1 For China, Japan and Germany, that means exporting vast volumes of goods, saving too much and spending too little; for the United States, and to varying degrees Britain and other European nations, it is the reverse. These trends are deeply ingrained in countries’ policies and individual decisions by residents, such as the lack of a social safety net in China that causes people to save more and the mortgage interest deductions in the United States that encourage people to take on more debt.
A shift in spending World leaders have pledged to guide the global economy away from these imbalances. President Barack Obama has renewed his call for a doubling of U.S. exports. But that has been made more difficult given that the value of the dollar has risen 7.5 percent against other major currencies this year, making American exports more expensive. Meanwhile, leaders in Germany in Japan have turned their focus to reducing their budget deficits, but the rest of the world would benefit if those countries spent more aggressively, increasing their consumption. The United States has been like a customer who outspends his paycheck by receiving store credit. The store — in this case, China, which buys vast quantities of U.S. Treasury bonds — essentially funnels its profit back to the customer in the form of more credit. Everybody is better off for a while; the customer gets more stuff, and the store does more business. But that relationship can’t go on forever. Eventually, the customer owes more money than he can pay, and the whole arrangement collapses. In the years before the financial crisis, it was that risk — of a collapse in the value of the dollar and of U.S. government securities — that kept many economists up at night.
Change in the system? Many had concluded that the crisis would shock the system into a fundamental change. “The growth model that has been in place over the past 10 years — where excess savers around the world, namely in Asia, allow us to live beyond our means, namely by buying products from those places — that model is broken, and it’s not coming back,” said Tim Adams, a former Treasury official, in congressional testimony in early 2009. For a time, that prediction seemed to be coming true, as the gap between spending and
‘Hard to untangle’ This problem of global imbalances was high on the agenda when leaders from the world’s 20 largest economies met late last month in Toronto. But their joint statement dealt with the issue only in vague terms, promising to seek “strong, sustainable and balanced growth.” There was no specific agreement on how governments would do this. The recent financial tremors in Europe could aggravate the imbalances further. Some European countries have responded to the debt crisis by slashing government spending and reducing consumption. Germany, the continent’s largest economy, was already producing more than it consumed, and its move toward austerity could reduce demand for American products just as the United States is pushing to expand exports. World leaders trying to grapple with these issues face a clash between what is best for the world economy in the long run and the immediate interests of their respective countries. The risk: that the seeds of the next crisis are already in the ground. “These imbalances weren’t accidental,” said Robert Shapiro, chairman of the economic advisory firm Sonecon and head of the globalization initiative at think tank NDN. “They solved large political and economic problems for a lot of countries and were the result of successful political arrangements. That’s why they’re so hard to untangle.”
talented employees, Alexander said. Otherwise, employers will look to hire out of the area. Buying other things, such as accounting or mailing services, in the area instead of out also is something business owners can do to benefit the local economy. “See if there is a competitive (price) here they can find,” Alexander said. “Plug that leak.” Turning the economy around is, obviously, one of the most talked-about issues in Central Oregon. Another group, the Deschutes Economic Alliance, is hiring a North Dakota-based consultant to develop a similar economic recovery plan. Discussing his initial findings, the consultant, Delore Zimmerman, called for similar changes at a meeting last month in Bend.
County Commissioner Alan Unger, who sat through both presentations, said each focused on different business sectors. Unger said Alexander’s was geared more toward the traded sector — industries that sell goods nationally or internationally where competition exists — while Zimmerman’s was more about business in general. Unger said he thinks he wrote more notes during Alexander’s presentation. “Plugging leaks is a big deal,” Unger said. “We need to keep (business) here.”
County comparisons In Alexander’s study, Ada County, Idaho, which is home to Boise, and Boulder County were compared with Deschutes as larger metropolitan areas to
which Deschutes could potentially aspire. On the other end, he measured Deschutes County against Washington County, Utah, and Kootenai County, Idaho, which he considers two peer counties. Both have smaller populations than Deschutes. Washington County went through a similar economic turmoil as Deschutes and, with about 40,000 fewer residents, has an unemployment rate of 14 percent, slightly lower than the 14.7 percent in Deschutes. “When we told them there was someone of a similar size doing worse, they couldn’t believe it,” said Alexander, who interviewed business owners and leaders there for this study. Central Oregon has among the highest unemployment rates in the state, with Crook County at 17 percent and Jefferson County at 14.2 percent in May. But those rates can be misleading, Alexander said, particularly in an area that has such strong population growth. Because Central Oregon’s population has continued to grow until recently, the unemployment rates appear higher, he said. As the job count decreased, the population also increased, hiking the rate. Besides the interviews with people in the other states, Alexander’s analysis of Deschutes County was based on interviews with about 20 business owners in Bend, Redmond, Sisters and La Pine. He said the findings are not meant to be represented as statistically significant. David Holley can be reached at 541-383-0323 or at dholley@bendbulletin.com.
Hard times in retail hit Facebook’s virtual shop By Kristi E. Swartz Cox News Service
ATLANTA — Facebook is closing its virtual gift shop, according to a blog post from its product manager. Users of the popular social media site who like to send their friends icons of birthday cakes, kittens, cartoon characters and other objects have until Aug. 1 to do so before the shop closes for good, said Jared Morgenstern, Facebook’s product manager for games and credits. Previously sent gifts will remain on a user’s Facebook page, however, Morgenstern said. “Closing the Gift Shop may disappoint many of the people who have given millions of gifts, but we made the decision after careful thought about where we need to focus our product development efforts,” Morgenstern wrote. Facebook instead will focus on features such as Photos, News Feed, Inbox, games, comments, the “Like” button and the Wall. Facebook started the gift shop in February 2007, Morgenstern wrote. Each gift cost $1.

Bankruptcies Continued from G1 In Crook County, that’s in part due to a 17 percent unemployment rate, the highest in Oregon. Deschutes and Jefferson counties aren’t much better off, ranking third- and fifth-highest in the state, respectively. James Forbes, an attorney in Bend, switched from land use to bankruptcy law almost two years ago because demand was so high. He said he’s been filing about three or four bankruptcies a week. “The most common thing is that people have either lost their jobs or had their hours reduced, and they’ve hung on and hung on as long as they can, trying to make payments,” he said. “But the income just does not equal the expenses of paying off credit cards, and paying the mortgage, and often car payments, and because of the reduced income they just wind up with no choice.” The vast majority of personal bankruptcies are filed under Chapter 7 of the bankruptcy code, liquidation, in which a trustee sells a debtor’s assets, distributes the money to creditors, and nullifies the remaining debt. Debtors must earn less than the state median income in order to qualify for Chapter 7 bankruptcy. The other common type is filed under Chapter 13, in which the debtor works out a three- to fiveyear payment plan, and some debts may be nullified. Chapter 7 bankruptcies cost about $1,000 and take about four months, while Chapter 13 bankruptcies cost between $2,500 and $5,000 and take between three

and five years, local lawyers said. Lane and his wife are among the thousands of Central Oregonians who have filed for bankruptcy since the start of the recession, many due to medical costs, the depressed housing market, sustained unemployment, or all three.

Les Schwab
Other bankruptcy lawyers in Central Oregon confirmed Les Schwab “always” comes to the meetings and tries hard to accommodate customers who can’t pay. Nancy Borneman, a bankruptcy attorney in Prineville, said the company treats bankruptcy filers “as human beings.” “They’re a very forward, progressive-thinking company on that,” she said. Some large creditors, like car companies, are also pretty flexible with debtors, she said. But sometimes the creditors who show up at the meeting are locals or small businesses who may get upset or angry, Borneman said. By contrast, the representative from Les Schwab is “very nice and treats people with respect,” she said. No one from Les Schwab was available to comment, but the company released this statement: “Les Schwab is committed to its customers in local communities in good times and when times are difficult. It has worked with customers when they are in bankruptcy and we know that they will remain loyal customers when their financial situation improves — which it will.” — Adrianne Jeffries, The Bulletin
Continued from G1 The banks, businesses and people the debtor owes money to are invited to this meeting. But creditors almost never show up, said Jonathan Basham, a bankruptcy attorney based in Bend — except for Les Schwab. “Les Schwab is just a very pleasant creditor to deal with,” Basham said. “They show up at the meeting, it’s a pleasant person (who says), ‘What does your client want to do? We can work with them.’” The company will offer zero interest during the bankruptcy, and ask clients how much they can afford and when they want to pay, he said. Clients are so grateful they sometimes obligate themselves to pay Les Schwab back even if the bankruptcy nullifies the debt, Basham said. “I’m not sure why, but the majority of my clients, maybe more than 90 percent of my clients, are incredibly faithful and loyal to Les Schwab and they want to keep the account and (are) willing to pay Les Schwab even after the bankruptcy,” he said. let the bank foreclose on their home, and moved into a cheap rental in Bend while they waited to file bankruptcy. Their case was delayed for months as their attorney filed more urgent cases for clients who were on the verge of having their wages garnished, getting foreclosed on, or being sued by their creditors. Lane spent hours each week calculating his income and expenses over and over, terrified that he and his wife wouldn’t pass the means test for Chapter 7. They had more than $30,000 in outstanding medical and credit card bills, according to the bankruptcy petition. “We were scared to death,” he said. He realized it was going to be
all right in October 2009, after a painless meeting with the trustee. About two months later, the debt was gone. He and his wife kept their cars, both worth less than $3,000, and all their household goods. He kept his checking and savings accounts at the same bank that had given him credit. His credit cards were immediately canceled, but he doesn’t miss those too often, he said. “Bankruptcy was the best thing for me. I sleep a lot better at night,” he said. But already, a doctor’s visit has set them back about $1,050, which they are paying in $50 monthly installments. They haven’t been going to
the doctor, in order to save money, Lane said, and he’s worried about what will happen if his car breaks down. He started shopping in bulk at Costco, which he estimates saves them a few hundred bucks a year, and he’s looking for a job he can do from home, such as doing phone surveys or running errands for people on Craigslist. For now, he and his wife are “on solid footing” with income from his disability benefits and her job as a pharmacy technician. They’ll be fine, he said, as long as nothing happens.

Wendy’s seeks to revive wilting salad market Fresh lineup focuses on nutrition, variety
Wendy’s is introducing a line of new salads such as Apple Pecan Chicken and BLT Cobb as the fast-food chain tailors its sales pitch to focus on “real” ingredients to appeal to foodies. The company, a unit of Wendy’s/ Arby’s Group Inc., is also testing breakfast again across the country. Rivals McDonald’s Corp. and Burger King Corp. have long served breakfast, and sandwich chain Subway, which has the most locations of any U.S. fast-food chain, rolled out a nationwide breakfast menu earlier this year.
By Jeremiah McWilliams Cox News Service
ATLANTA — Wendy’s is revamping its salad offerings for the first time in nearly a decade after surveys of 13,000 consumers showed they wanted the chain to stand for “real” food. “In this mass-produced, overly processed world, people have a strong desire for real food, prepared the real way,” said Ken Calwell, the chief marketing officer at Wendy’s, which is part of Atlanta-based Wendy’s/Arby’s Group. “It sounds easy to do. It’s actually very difficult to do.” Wendy’s plans to officially introduce the salads — including a variety with avocado and another with apples and pecans — on July 19 with television and radio commercials and print ads. In a nod to the real food movement, materials plastered on the walls of Wendy’s stores and pamphlets dropped in salad bags will tell diners where the ingredients are grown and describe the 11 varieties of greens. “People are reading the ingredient labels more than they ever have,” Calwell said. “They want to know where food is sourced from. People are digging into more detail.”
Leader in salad sales Wendy’s first introduced salad bars in its restaurants in 1979, and the company became the market leader in salad sales among its burger-selling peers. In 2002, it introduced its “Garden Sensations” line and enjoyed a big bump in sales. “It was a big hit for us,” Calwell said. But it has arguably become much

“People are reading the ingredient labels more than they ever have. They want to know where food is sourced from. People are digging into more detail.” — Ken Calwell, chief marketing officer at Wendy’s harder to impress fast-food diners with salads in the intervening years. You can get salads at McDonald’s, Burger King and Chick-fil-A. Despite the proliferation of options, the salad market has waned in recent years. Servings of main dish salads fell 7 percent and side salads dropped 8 percent in the year ending in April 2010, according to NPD Group. By comparison, total restaurant traffic and fast-food traffic were down 3 percent in that period. It took Wendy’s about a year and a half to bring the new salads to fruition. It tested them in Richmond, Nashville, Salt Lake City and Columbus, Ohio, after studying the salads offered by higher-end cafes in New York,
Los Angeles and Atlanta. “This is an important one,” Calwell said of the launch. “During the year, you’ll have A, B and C launches. This is clearly an A launch.”
Breakfast Wendy’s is also testing breakfast again across the country. Chief Marketing Officer Ken Calwell said he expects to know more about moving into that growing restaurant segment as early as later this year. Breakfast is one of the bright spots for the industry, which has been hurting as people pare back on their spending in the sluggish economy. It’s less expensive than other meals and quick, appeal-

ing to people on the go in the mornings. According to market research firm The NPD Group, morning meal traffic rose on average 2 percent over the past five years, while lunch visits were flat and dinner fell 2 percent. Breakfast will feature “real” ingredients too, such as applewood smoked bacon and fresh eggs. Calwell declined to say what would be on the breakfast menu, but CEO Roland Smith said earlier this year the company expects breakfast items to be grilled egg sandwiches, oatmeal bars, roasted potatoes and fresh fruit. He said the company will take its time getting into the growing breakfast segment because it wants to approach the business correctly. “Our belief is even though it’s tougher and takes longer, it’s worth it,” he said. “We want a breakfast where people go, ‘Wow, here are real cracked eggs.’”
Bloomberg News
General Motors has decided against creating its own finance unit and is instead talking with banks including JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America and Wells Fargo about bolstering its lending capabilities, people with direct knowledge of the decision said. The banks would write loans and leases on cars, helping to spur sales, said four people with knowledge of the situation who asked not to be named because the discussions are private. Chief Executive Officer Ed Whitacre aimed to get the automaker back into financing before its planned initial public offering this year, people familiar with the situation have said. The company considered buying back its former lending arm, GMAC, starting a bank or working with outside lenders to offer customers more financing options, said three people with knowledge of the discussions. Buying GMAC, now called Ally Financial Inc., or starting a new, in-house banking unit proved too difficult at this point, they said. “They have to make sure they cover all of the credit tiers,” said Maryann Keller, president of consultant Maryann Keller & Associates in Stamford, Conn. “They can’t reacquire GMAC because its only basis for cheap capital is that they own a bank. GM can’t legally own a bank.” Selim Bingol, a GM spokesman, declined to comment. An Ally spokeswoman, Gina Proia, declined to comment. GM, based in Detroit, is looking for other banks to boost its subprime-lending and leasing capabilities, the people said. GM has missed out on some sales because GMAC, its primary retail lender, doesn’t lend to subprime borrowers, Mark Reuss, president of GM North America, has said.

cars need 200 horsepower or more to be considered worth driving. I drove a Jetta TDi sedan all over the great state of Virginia, using its highways and byways in perfect harmony with substantially more powerful vehicles. Empirical observation indicates that I made better time than many of them because I seldom stopped for fuel, which means I often caught up with and passed cars that had zoomed past me on tollbooth-monitored highways. When necessary, finding ultralow-sulfur diesel, the fuel required for the Jetta TDi, was easy. The fuel has been widely available in the United States since 2006, when the federal government required 80 percent of the nation’s highway truck fleet to begin using cleaner diesel. Sulfur resides in crude oil, from which diesel is refined. It is the stuff that manifests itself as thick black smoke when traditional diesel fuels, which have 500 parts of sulfur per million, are burned. Ultra-low-sulfur diesel has been refined so that its sulfur content is 15 parts per million. It can be found at many urban gas pumps, and it’s nearly always available at highway fueling facilities. Diesel engines are 30 percent more efficient than their gasoline counterparts. But, alas, that competence is not rewarded at the pump. Recent price checks showed diesel fuel selling at an average of $2.96 per gallon in the United States, compared with an average of $2.74 per gallon for gasoline. Also, diesel technology costs more. The base gasoline version of the Volkswagen Jetta, for example, starts at $17,735. The base version of the diesel-powered Jetta TDi is priced at $22,830.
meaning to “fun to drive.” Ride, acceleration and handling: The Jetta TDi has more of a sports feel, which means a harder ride than many of its midsize sedan rivals. Acceleration builds slowly. Most of the torque in this one is at the high end, where it counts. Handling is very good. Head-turning quotient: It’s a work of middle-class propriety striving for stateliness in lieu of elegance, bereft of anything approaching passion in exterior design. But like a good marriage, its interior is put together well. Capacities: There are seats for five people. Luggage capacity is 16 cubic feet. The fuel tank holds 14.5 gallons (ultra-low-sulfur diesel fuel, available at many service stations, is required). Safety: Standard equipment includes front and rear disc brakes (ventilated front, solid rear), fourwheel anti-lock brakes, emergency braking assistance, electronic stability and traction control, and side and head air bags.
Q:
I have a 1999 Chevrolet Prizm. It just turned 80,000 miles. I’m lately driving it less than 5,000 miles a year. It has never had a tune-up, transmission upkeep or service. Around town I get 23 mpg on short trips, and as much as 40 mpg on long trips. I change the oil every 4,000 miles. This year a new muffler, tires and brakes are the only upkeep. Have I been lucky? The car is running perfectly, so why should I tempt fate with “manufacturer’s scheduled maintenance?” Should I wait until I have a problem? Your Chevy Prizm is actually a rebadged Toyota Corolla, assembled in Fremont, Calif. — perhaps this explains the excellent performance you’ve so far enjoyed. I checked the maintenance schedule to see what you’ve missed, and replacement of the spark plugs and engine coolant — each at 30,000 miles — are the most pertinent items. I’d recommend you do this soon, as spark plugs can be difficult to remove, often causing thread damage, when they’ve been in place too long. Additionally, worn spark plugs can cause the engine to misfire, reducing performance and fuel economy, raising emissions, and possibly leading to catalytic converter damage. Renewing coolant (actually the entire 50/50 coolant/water mix) is also important, as it’s an inexpensive way to prevent cooling system corrosion. Corrosion can be a larger problem than most may realize, due to the variety of metals used in a modern engine and cooling system.

The bottom line The diesel technology is worth its price premium. You tend to get better mileage using one drive system, instead of the two (fossil fuel and electric) used in hybrid vehicles. Diesel fuels and engines have been improved to greatly reduce soot and other particulate emissions. Reducing fuel consumption while boosting torque and overall road performance, as evidenced in the Jetta TDi, gives a whole new
Your coolant could look great, because the primarily aluminum engine won’t stain it with rust, but the corrosion inhibitors are long gone, leading to some expensive repairs. I’ll agree that some of the manufacturer’s scheduled maintenance inspections and procedures appear to be a bit on the cautious side, or some may even say frivolous. But inspections go quickly, and a pressure test of the cooling system or other procedures can identify problems before they bloom big. The maintenance required on modern vehicles is a fraction of what it used to be. In your case, the 30,000-mile, 60,000-mile and 90,000-mile services are the important ones, with regular oil and oil filter changes, a few inspections and a tire rotation in between. I’d exceed the recommendations by renewing belts and hoses every five years or 60,000 miles, as well as renewal of the automatic transmission and brake fluids. Call me fussy, but these things could make the difference of the Prizm lasting 150,000 or 300,000 miles with minimal problems. I’m not sure your trouble-free experience with the Prizm is a matter of luck. You bought a solid and tenacious car and it’s served you well. Failing to take care of some of the overdue maintenance will have predictable consequences in the future, if they’re not attended to.
