A tanker, top left, flies near the Scott Mountain Fire on Monday as spectators at the Dee Wright Observatory on top of McKenzie Pass gaze at the smoke. The fire started Aug. 17 from a lightning strike in the Mt. Washington Wilderness, and it grew to 200 acres by Monday night after a dry, windy day. For more on the fire, see Page C1.

In Deschutes, concern over future of OSU agricultural support

By Hillary Borrud and Lauren Dake The Bulletin

Officials in counties where voters have approved taxes to support 4-H and extension services are worried they might end up paying for other counties’ programs.

“There are counties such as Deschutes

that have local taxing districts or are putting general fund money into their 4-H programs,” said Deschutes County Administrator Dave Kanner. “If you regionalize it, I think there’s a legitimate concern about disparate funding of extension/4-H services.”

Oregon State University Extension Service provides agricultural expertise on the ground in all 36 Oregon counties for ranchers, gardeners, food preservers and kids raising livestock. State money generally pays for faculty, experts on small farms and other subjects, while

counties pay for office space, supplies and administrative employees.

Kanner said he has not seen any plan to specifically take money from counties with extension tax districts, but he is worried that Oregon could be headed that way.

CHILEAN MINE RESCUE

For miners, a long wait a half mile deep in the earth

By Mauricio Cuevas Associated Press

COPIAPO, Chile — Trapped nearly half a mile inside the earth and facing perhaps four months before rescue, 33 Chilean miners began accepting food, water and oxygen from above ground Monday as rescue teams worked to gauge their state of mind and brace them for the long wait ahead.

Through a newly installed communications system, each of the men spoke and reported feeling hungry but well, except for one with a stomach problem, a Chilean official said. They requested toothbrushes.

It was a positive sign, and Chile’s president said the nation was “crying with excitement and joy” after engineers broke through Sunday to the men’s refuge. It had been 17 days since a landslide at the gold and copper mine collapsed a tunnel and en-

tombed them more than 2,200 feet below ground.

Still, doctors and psychological experts were trying to safeguard the very sanity of the miners in the months to come, and said they were implementing a plan that included keeping them informed and busy. The miners reported that a shift foreman named Luis Urzua had assumed leadership of the trapped men.

“They need to understand what we know up here at the surface, that it will take many weeks for them to reach the light,” Health Minister Jaime Manalich explained.

Engineers worked to reinforce the 6-inch-wide bore hole that broke through to the refuge, using a long hose to coat its walls with a metallic gel to decrease the risk of rock falling and blocking the hard-won passage through the unstable mine.

Celebrating 200 years of can-do history

By Dan Zak The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — The march of Western civilization and the prosperity of the United States have partly hinged on the quiet little object behind those boxes of pricey whole-grain rotini pasta on the third shelf of your cupboard. The object is cylindrical and silver and wrapped in a paper label. It is dusty. Its expiration date has passed.

“You think it’s still good?”

“I dunno. Open it. No, wait.

Don’t.”

Or do. Several years ago, on the 50th anniversary of his marriage, an Englishman in Denton ate a can of cooked chicken he received as a wedding present.

His only complaint? It was “a little bit salty.”

Such is the power, the longevity, the simplicity, the overwhelming ordinariness of the can.

Bend Area Transit riders will soon be under the watchful eye of high-resolution surveillance cameras.

The city’s transit agency plans to install six security cameras plus two microphones on each of its nine fixed-route buses by the middle of October using $95,520 in federal stimulus dollars that were received last year.

Buses will also receive vehicle tracker equipment that will give transit dispatchers and customers real-time information on their computers or smart phones about where a bus is located along its route.

While the security cameras are not being installed in response to any specific crimes that occurred on BAT buses, Bend Transit Manager Heather Ornelas said they could act as a safeguard because people tend to behave better when they know they’re under surveillance.

“It’s simply good business. All mass transit systems use security cameras,” Ornelas said. “This was just the next step in our evolution in growing into an urban mass transit system, and we’re glad to have them.”

The cameras will be programmed at a high enough resolution to capture full facial recognition, and the associated digital video recorders will be able to save images for up to 30 days.

F / Consumer Prepaying won’t always save you cash

By Gregory Karp Chicago Tribune

Determining whether it’s good or bad to buy a prepaid item depends entirely on what’s being offered. There’s no universal advice or rule of thumb. Here’s a guide to some of the common forms of prepaid offers consumers might encounter, separated into whether you should consider buying them.

Cell phones

interest rate. Base your decision on how long you’ll remain in the house.

Figure out how many months of lower mortgage payments it would take to break even with the amount you paid in points.

For example, if you paid $3,000 in points for a slightly lower interest rate that saves you $100 per month on your mortgage, it would take 30 months to break even. If you’re very likely to stay in the house longer, paying points could be worthwhile.

Unless you want the capabilities of a smart phone with Internet access, a pay-as-you-go prepaid wireless phone is a great idea and can be far cheaper than a cell phone with a monthly contract, experts say. That’s especially true if you use only a few hundred minutes per month. But even moderately heavy users can reap savings, says Consumer Reports magazine.

Consumers are starting to get the message. The fourth quarter of 2009 marked the first time new prepaid wireless customers in the United States outnumbered new contract-based customers, according to the New Millennium Research Council, a Washington think tank whose work focuses on telecommunications and technology.

With a prepaid phone, you buy an inexpensive phone and load minutes onto the phone as needed. You can buy minutes online or at retail stores in the form of a prepaid phone card that has a code you type into the phone. Taxes and fees are included in the price of the minutes. A few downsides: The phones are not the most current models, and minutes expire after a set period.

Highly rated prepaid providers include Tracfone, Net10, Virgin Mobile and T-Mobile.

Some wireless providers also offer month-to-month, flat-fee prepaid plans with more full-featured phones and service.

Prepaid tuition plans have helped millions of families in the past, but consumers nowadays need to be wary, said college-savings expert Joe Hurley.

That’s because states, which sponsor prepaid 529 plans, are suffering budget shortfalls and might not be able to honor pledges to pay for future college costs, he said.

About half of the original 18 states that offered prepaid plans have closed their plans to new enrollment. Of the remaining, just four plans are guaranteed — that is, backed by the full faith and credit of the state. Those states are Massachusetts, Mississippi, Texas and Washington. A fifth, in Florida, is guaranteed if the student is within five years of enrolling at college.

Also, it’s no longer “tomorrow’s tuition at today’s prices.”

“Most plans charge considerably more than today’s prices,” Hurley said. “That is their way to maintain financial solvency.”

The more common, investment-style 529 plans, where growth on investment money can be used tax-free for college expenses, could be a better option.

In fact, associated built-in fees have generally come down in recent years, making them a better deal, Hurley said.

Discounts

Prepaid funerals

All sorts of services, from insurance to pest control, might offer a discount for prepaying in a lump sum upfront rather than monthly. This is generally a good idea nowadays if you can afford it, assuming you can get money back for any unused portion of the service if you discontinue it. Why? Typically, you would compare the discount with how much interest you could otherwise earn in a safe account, such as a bank account.

But interest rates are so low now that prepaying for services will almost surely reap a higher return.

Almost never a good idea, said Joshua Slocum, executive director of the Funeral Consumers Alliance, which attributes onethird of complaints it receives to prepaid funerals. “Consumers are far too gullible for their own good when it comes to this stuff,” he said.

If you move to a different region of the country, die while traveling or simply change your mind, you might not receive a full refund, with interest, of your prepayment. And money paid now might not cover inflated funeral costs in the future, possibly resulting in substituting cheaper merchandise or needing more money from survivors.

And, of course, the seller of the funeral services could go out of business.

A better option would be simply to place the money in a bank “payable on death” account, also called a Totten trust, and name a survivor as beneficiary.

Credit cards A couple of types of cards can fall under this category. One is a secured credit card where you deposit an amount, say $500, and you can charge up to that amount.

This is useful for young people trying to establish a credit history or for those recovering from damaged credit and personal bankruptcy. The key is to find a card that reports to all three major credit bureaus, which will start improving your credit scores if you pay on time, said Liz Pulliam Weston, author of “Your Credit Score.” A secured credit card that converts to a regular credit card after a period is ideal, she said.

The other type is a refillable prepaid credit card that acts like a debit card. They have the advantages of credit cards, such as being able to book a rental car, without the downsides of overspending or finance charges, Weston said.

Prepaid credit cards can also be useful for parents to use as a teaching tool for older children.

Prepaid cards typically do not help you build a credit history.

The downside with all these cards are the fees, Weston said.

For example, a prepaid card might have a one-time $20 processing or application fee, plus a fee of $5 per month. Research cards at such comparison sites as CardRatings. com, CreditCards.com and LowCards.com.

Mortgage points This is essentially prepaying interest to get a lower ongoing

Tuition

Extended warranties Extended warranties, also called service contracts, mean you are essentially prepaying for a repair. They are a source of huge profit for retailers and seldom a good deal for consumers, consumer advocates agree. Consumer Reports, for example, has long advised shoppers to just say no.

Time-share vacations Time-share owners are essentially prepaying for the hotel or resort condo they would have paid for during future vacations. Problem is, they’re very expensive, an average of about $20,500 in 2009.

That means they take years to break even. You’re also locked into a single vacation spot or must deal with a sometimes-cumbersome system of swapping timeshare locations. Time shares also come with annual maintenance fees, which averaged about $674 last year. Most important, there is almost no secondary market for time shares, meaning you’ll have trouble selling it, let alone for a good price.

Thrifty mother sends site subscribers meal plans for grocery items on sale

By Grace Gagliano McClatchy-Tribune News Service

BRADENTON, Fla. — Erika Vitiene doesn’t walk into a grocery store without a wellmapped-out shopping list.

Using each week’s circulars from grocery store Publix, the Bradenton resident plans seven dinner meals for the week according to what’s on sale. Then she organizes her list by categories such as produce, meat and canned goods to save time at the store.

She’s been shopping this way for several years and has built a small online business out of her shopping strategy.

In January, Vitiene launched grocerydash.com, a subscription service through which she provides clients with seven dinners that use the meat, produce and ingredients on sale that week. In addition, the website provides subscribers with the recipes, suggestions for on-sale breakfast and lunch items and a grocery list that is sorted by department.

“I socialize with moms all the time, and it just seems to be a challenge for everybody to save money and save time,” said Vitiene, who is a stay-at-home mother of two.

Vitiene started grocery shopping more strategically about five years ago when her son was born. She quit her job as a teacher at Sugg Middle School to become a stay-at-home mom but found the sacrifice required her to learn how to better stretch her husband’s income on groceries.

“We couldn’t simply keep going to the grocery store and discover all we came home with was crackers, chips and a few meals,” Vitiene said.

As she nailed down a system

Grant Jefferies / Bradenton Herald

Erika Vitiene has developed a service called Grocery Dash, which customers can use to plan meals using her website. The meals use items on sale at local grocery stores. for coordinating recipes with weekly on-sale items over the years, she decided to build grocerydash.com to see if other families had an interest in it.

She’s invested about $800 in the startup to create the website, a logo and some marketing, and has about 24 consumers who have signed up for the monthly subscription, which is $4.95.

“I save between 25 to 50 percent on my grocery bill every week shopping this way,” Vitiene said.

Shannon Patten, a spokeswoman for Publix, said that the store, too, has recognized consumers are looking for more shopping conveniences and is responding with a personal shopping program it will test next month at a store in Tampa and one in Atlanta.

Vitiene sees great potential for her startup to gain populari-

ty like another strategic shopping website, CouponMom.com, which has seen tremendous growth since its inception in 2001.

Stephanie Nelson, creator of couponmom.com, started her website in 2001 as a free service focused on helping consumers save money with coupons as well as raising awareness about food donations to hunger organizations.

Since 2004, she has appeared on “Good Morning America,” “The Oprah Winfrey Show,” “The Today Show” and CNN, and her Web traffic has jumped to 2.6 million members from 200,000 members in 2008.

T S N. Korea puts fiscal reformer in forceful role

Judge calls a halt to stem cell aid backed

by Obama

Bloomberg News

By Gardiner Harris New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — A federal district judge Monday blocked President Barack Obama’s 2009 executive order that expanded embryonic stem cell research, saying it violated a ban on federal money being used to destroy embryos.

The ruling came as a shock to scientists at the National Institutes of Health and at U.S. universities, which had viewed the Obama administration’s new policy and the grants provided under it as settled law.

In his ruling, Chief Judge Royce C. Lamberth of U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia wrote that his temporary injunction returned federal policy to the “status quo,” but few officials, scientists or lawyers in the case were sure Monday night what that meant.

The judge ruled that the Obama administration’s policy was illegal because the administration’s distinction between work that leads to the destruction of embryos — which cannot be financed by the federal government under the current policy — and the financing of work using stem cells created through embryonic destruction was meaningless. In his ruling, he referred to embryonic stem cell research as ESC. “If one step or ‘piece of research’ of an ESC research project results in the destruction of an embryo, the entire project is precluded from receiving federal funding,” wrote Lamberth, who was appointed to the federal bench in 1987 by President Ronald Reagan.

In other words, the neat lines that the government had drawn between the process of embryonic destruction and the results of that destruction are not valid, the judge ruled.

For scientists, the problem with the judge’s reasoning is that it may render all scientific work regarding embryonic stem cells illegal — including work allowed under the more restrictive policy adopted by President George W. Bush in 2001.

A worker walks on the Inner Harbor Navigation Canal surge barrier earlier this month in New Orleans. The barrier is part of a $15 billion, 350-mile ring of linked levees, floodwalls, gates and pumps under construction around the city.

5 years after Katrina, 350 miles of protection

By John Schwartz New York Times News Service

LAKE BORGNE, La. — The great wall of Lake Borgne is a monster. Nearly two miles long and 26 feet high, it spans a corner of the lake, 12 miles east of New Orleans. On Aug. 29, 2005, that corner funneled Hurricane Katrina’s surge into New Orleans, causing some of the city’s most violent flooding. Now the corner is being blocked.

Nearly five years after Katrina and the devastating failures of the levee system, New Orleans is well on its way to getting the protection system Congress ordered: a ring of 350 miles of linked levees, flood walls, gates and pumps that surrounds the city and should defend it against the kind of flooding that in any given year has a

By David Phelps and Rochelle Olson (Minneapolis) Star Tribune

MINNEAPOLIS — For victims and survivors of the Interstate 35W bridge collapse in Minneapolis, the legal odyssey ended Monday with the announcement that engineering giant URS Corp. agreed to pay $52.4 million to settle claims from the 2007 disaster that claimed 13 lives and injured 145.

But it was a bittersweet end for the people affected by the structural failure of the bridge.

“Today is an emotional day,” said Anne Engebretsen, whose mother Sherry died in the collapse. “The pain of our loss will never subside. I got married about a month ago and didn’t have my mom at my side. That really hurt.”

The settlement was announced at a hastily called noon press conference that featured several of the surviving victims of the Aug. 7, 2007, calamity.

While terms of the overall settlement are public, the amounts of individual payouts will be confidential.

1 percent chance of occurring.

The scale of the nearly $15 billion project, which is not due to be completed until the beginning of next year’s hurricane season, brings to mind an earlier age when the nation built huge works like the Brooklyn Bridge, the Hoover Dam and the Interstate highway system.

The city’s reinforced defenses are already stronger than they were before Katrina. But even after 2011, experts argue, they will still provide less protection than New Orleans needs to avoid serious flooding in massive storms.

For a region devastated by a storm and by a loss of faith in the government’s ability to safeguard it, the new system is a test of more than the prowess of the Army Corps of Engineers.

Some residents say they may never fully get over the failure of the Katrina response.

“It’s a comprehensive-system approach,” said Karen DurhamAguilera, a civilian engineer responsible for work on what is now known as the Hurricane and Storm Damage Risk Reduction System. “We’re not even in the same universe anymore.”

Where some of the old levees were built with dredged mud and shell fill that washed away in the storm, the new ones are toughened with clay. Many old flood walls were shaped, in cross section, like the letter “I” and stood on muddy soil that was prone to give way; most of the new work is sturdier, shaped like an inverted “T” and braced with pilings driven diagonally into the ground.

QUALITY FOR LESS!

By Thomas H. Maugh II Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Government scientists have found traces of a mouse-related virus in 86 percent of patients with chronic fatigue syndrome, a discovery that is likely to reignite the controversy surrounding the virus widely known as XMRV. Nevada scientists first reported the presence of the virus in CFS patients in 2009, but at least three subsequent studies failed to detect it. On Monday, however, researchers from three different government agencies said they had found the virus in stored and fresh blood samples.

“There is a dramatic association with chronic fatigue syndrome ... but we have not proven causality for the agent,” said Dr. Harvey Alter, chief of clinical studies at the National Institutes of Health Clinical Center and one of the authors of the new report, speaking at a news conference. The report was published online ahead of print in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. “The dilemma now is how to reconcile that some labs find the association and some don’t.”

tractors, which he said had created an “economic mafia” in the war-torn country.

Waheed Omar, Karzai’s spokesman, blamed foreign contractors spending Western reconstruction money for much of Afghanistan’s corruption.

What started as the arrest of a Karzai aide has become a significant test of the Obama administration’s efforts to root out corruption in Afghanistan, even as it tries not to alienate Karzai at a time when support for the war is eroding in the U.S.

SEOUL, South Korea — North Korea has restored economic reformist Pak Pong Ju to its leadership, a sign the communist nation that’s relied on food handouts since the mid-1990s may be ready to give market forces another chance.

The 71-year-old former North Korean premier has been reinstated as first deputy director of the central committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea, South Korea’s Yonhap News reported Saturday, citing a report by state-run Central Broadcasting Station.

Pak’s return comes as North Korea prepares to select new leaders at a meeting of its ruling party next month, which South Korean officials have said may provide clues to leader Kim Jong Il’s succession plans. The country’s shortages of food and goods have worsened after the government reversed some market-oriented programs and botched a currency revaluation, and as tighter United Nations sanctions reduced trade.

“The North may be thinking that they don’t have a choice but to use more flexible policies to fix the economy,” said Kim Yong-hyun, a professor of North Korean studies at Dongguk University in Seoul. “Pak may have been emphasized within the North’s party as the hands-on person to fix its problems.”

Pak was named premier, the top post for running domestic economic policy, in September 2003, a year after he visited South Korea as part of a delegation to study the capitalist economy. He fell afoul of North Korea’s military and party hardliners three years ago over his efforts to push market-oriented reforms, according to the Yonhap report.

North Korea executed Pak Nam Gi, head of finance and planning, after the government’s exchange of old currency for new sparked unrest by fueling inflation, decimating savings and exacerbating shortages, South Korean media reported earlier this year.

On primary day, McCain will see if shift to right has paid off

By Marc Lacey New York Times News Service

PHOENIX — Workers were busy decorating the Phoenix Convention Center on Monday in preparation for an event honoring Sen. John McCain, who is finishing up a bruising primary battle. This will be no retirement p a r t y , h o w e v e r.

“Six more years!” is expec ted to be the refrain.

P o l l s showed McCain, 73, with a comfortable lead — anywhere from 15 to 21 points, depending on who was doing the polling — over his Republican challenger, J.D. Hayworth, 51, a conservative former radio talk show host and six-term congressman who offered a spirited challenge but one that seemed to lose sizzle the longer it went on.

McCain’s comfortable position as Arizonans prepared to vote today was a reversal of fortunes from earlier in the year, when he was considered a potential victim of anti-establishment fervor. Even some of his supporters had predicted that he would be cleaning out his office like veteran Senate colleagues Robert Bennett, RUtah, and Arlen Specter, D-Pa. McCain is not the only Republican incumbent facing a primary today. In Alaska, Sen. Lisa Murkowski faces Joe Miller, a Fairbanks lawyer who has been endorsed by Sarah Palin.

And in Florida, the main action is on the Democratic side, where Rep. Kendrick Meek faces Jeff Greene, a billionaire developer, in the Senate primary.

In Arizona, McCain had clear vulnerabilities going into the race: his 27 years in Washington at a time when the antiincumbency mood was fierce and his high-profile efforts to reform the immigration system that ran up against the hard-line approaches emanating from Arizona.

But by spending freely and by acting as if he might lose, the senator managed to turn things around. McCain tapped into money left over from his failed presidential effort, spending more than $20 million (compared with about $3 million for Hayworth) making his visage and his harsh attacks on Hayworth omnipresent on Arizona’s airwaves.

The question now is whether McCain’s sharp shift to the right during the campaign will ultimately come back to haunt him and perhaps tarnish his legacy as a pragmatist willing to reach across the aisle.

One key to McCain’s rebound was how he neutralized Hayworth’s, and Arizona’s, big issue — immigration. The senator endorsed Arizona’s immigration crackdown. He changed his mind on the necessity of the border fence, insisting that it was effective.

He also backpedaled fiercely on whether there ought to be a path to citizenship for those who entered the country against the rules, which in the past he has endorsed.

Mexico woman is crowned Miss Universe The Associated Press LAS VEGAS — A 22-yearold Mexico woman won the Miss Universe pageant Monday night after donning a flowing red gown and telling an audience it’s important to teach kids family values.

Jimena Navarrete of Guadalajara was first contestant to answer an interview question onstage and the last of 83 standing in the headlinegrabbing pageant on the Las Vegas Strip.

“I want to give my parents a big hug,” she said at a news conference after the pageant.

“There was a lot of effort and a lot of sacrifice.”

Extension Continued from A1 A group of Oregon State University extension faculty made recommendations earlier this year for how the service can cut administrative costs, raise revenue, move more information online, and better assess the public’s needs. The proposal came in response to a longterm decline in revenue, which sharpened over the summer due to state budget cuts. Kanner is concerned that regionalizing the extension service could lead to more mingling of money and ultimately result in Deschutes County taxpayers’ money funding programs in other counties.

Scott Reed, OSU’s vice provost for university outreach and engagement, and director of the OSU Extension Service, said he understands concerns voiced by Kanner and other officials. Faculty members already provide educational programs across county lines, and the extension service will ensure the staff’s time is shared equitably under any new structure, Reed said.

“What we hope to be able to do is design a system where expertise is shared, but counties get full value for their contribution to the extension service,” Reed said.

Funding the service Sixty percent of the extension service’s funding comes from the state’s general fund budget, so the services faced the same 9 percent cut that Gov. Ted Kulongoski proposed three months ago for state agencies supported by taxes.

Following the May cuts, the extension service’s annual budget is approximately $30 million, which includes about $20 million from the state, $3.7 million in federal money and $6.2 million in local county-level funds, Reed said.

A group of county officials and OSU staff is assessing the OSU faculty recommendations, and the next meeting is Sept. 14.

OSU extension tentatively plans to begin implementing the final recommendations between 2011 and 2013, the extension’s Regional Director Doug Hart wrote in an e-mail.

Crook County Judge Mike McCabe said Monday that he, too, is concerned that regionalization could take money away from Crook County’s extension services.

“There’s going to be a pretty big pushback in Crook if that happens,” McCabe said.

Crook County has a permanent tax rate to support extension services, and in the budget year that ended in June, the tax raised $201,457, said Treasurer and Tax Collector Kathy Gray.

McCabe also said that the

Buses Continued from A1 Ornelas said the Federal Transit Administration recommends all public transit systems install onboard cameras. When federal stimulus funds became available, she said getting the surveillance equipment for BAT became a top priority.

Security cameras will also be installed at other BAT facilities as well as at a regional transit hub that is being constructed at the intersection of Hawthorne Avenue and Fourth Street in northeast Bend near BAT’s Hawthorne Station.

Bend Police Capt. Jim Porter said there are a number of benefits to law enforcement for having security cameras on BAT buses, one of the largest being that it gives his department more eyes in the community.

“For us they’ll act as a force multiplier,” Porter said. “It’ll allow us to be able to monitor areas that need to be without us actually being there.”

If a crime did happen on a bus, he said the cameras would also help officers investigate the incident and “take the ‘he said, they said’ out of the whole equation.”

Officials also hope the cameras act as a deterrent for rude bus behavior, such as using profane language, smoking or vandalism. Individuals who are caught violating these rules, whether by a driver or by the cameras, could be temporarily banned from the bus system.

The cameras can also act as a mediator when someone makes a fraudulent claim that could result in a lawsuit against BAT or one of its drivers.

“If you have security cameras you could actually have a record and evidence in the cameras of what may or may not have happened in the buses,” Bend City Attorney Mary Winters said.

Amy Jo Detweiler, a horticulturist with the Oregon State University Extension Service, left, checks the soil and discusses the possible reasons for poor plant growth last week during an educational meeting with gardeners at the NorthWest Crossing community garden.

The OSU Extension Service provides agricultural expertise to gardeners and others in all 36 Oregon counties.

“What we hope to be able to do is design a system where expertise is shared, but counties get full value for their contribution to the extension service.”

— Scott Reed, OSU’s vice provost for university outreach and engagement, and director of the OSU Extension Service university should not be adding faculty at its Corvallis campus when the extension service is reducing staff.

“We need them out here in the country,” McCabe said. His father was a sheep rancher with an eighth-grade education, but the elder McCabe “tried to listen to the extension agent as best he could,” McCabe said. And with the economy still down, many people working in agriculture need help from the extension service more than ever as they try to increase production.

Deschutes County’s permanent tax rate for 4-H and extension services, which voters approved in 1982, is expected to raise $373,000 this fiscal year, Deschutes County Financial and Budget Analyst Teri Maerki wrote in an e-mail.

So far, the extension service has avoided layoffs statewide by

leaving positions unfilled when employees retire or leave for other reasons, Reed said.

Stretched thin “We have unfilled positions and vacancies, and work that used to be done by extension faculty that we can no longer afford to place out in Oregon’s offices,” Reed said. “One consequence of that is that we’re asking our people to cover bigger geographic areas. In some cases, we have faculty covering five or more counties.”

OSU Extension Service has reduced staff over the past decade by the equivalent of more than 30 full-time employees, or about 15 percent of the work force, according to a March OSU faculty report on the extension website. “Traditional state and federal funding is not sufficient

“If you have security cameras you could actually have a record and evidence in the cameras of what may or may not have happened in the buses. It’s a proactive way to actually have a way of looking into something that somebody claims happened or didn’t happen.”

— Bend City Attorney Mary Winters “It’s a proactive way to actually have a way of looking into something that somebody claims happened or didn’t happen.”

This idea could also be transferred to vehicle accidents involving BAT buses and other customer complaints.

One of the other technological improvements to BAT’s fixed route system include installing an auto vehicle locator system that will update exact bus locations every five seconds. Ornelas said this will be available online and can be accessed us-

to sustain the level of staffing currently in place,” according to the report.

Reed said he is still waiting to find out whether the next state revenue forecast will lead to more budget cuts, to determine whether the extension service will have to lay off employees.

Laura Cleland, communications manager at the Association of Oregon Counties, said the county official and OSU faculty task force has met several times, and had spirited discussions.

“What the task force is all about is looking at a long-term change in how extension functions in Oregon,” Cleland said.

“They do seem to be settling on at least one or two (OSU faculty) in each county, then drawing regionally on expertise.”

Currently, the Deschutes County extension office in Redmond has five extension faculty funded with state money and grants, said Dana Martin, the extension’s Deschutes County staff chairwoman who also works on the Central Oregon Small Farms program.

Martin and other extension employees in Crook and Jefferson counties said they have not been informed whether there will be specific cuts to their offices.

Crook County Extension Office Staff Chairman Tim Deboodt said the offices have started looking for alternative revenue sources, such as grants, and are bracing themselves for deeper cuts than the ones that have been announced. One thing is likely, Deboodt said, for those agents delivering programs, they will become more regional and start covering more territory with fewer people.

“We’ll get smaller and more specialized and cover larger and larger portions of the state,” Deboodt said.

The extension service has made a big impact on some local businesses. Jim Fields has farmed for 28 years and runs a successful community-supported agriculture program from his 5-acre farm in Bend. Fields started his farm after taking a 1988 master gardening class with the extension service.

“That gave me the foundation to start my small farm,” Fields said. “I’ve found it invaluable.”

ing smart phone applications, but she hopes to eventually have a display at the regional transit station that is under construction.

Bend Area Transit is also expected to be part of Google Transit in the coming months.

This will allow people to plan a trip on public transit systems from Portland to Bend, for instance, and match schedules and routes between the cities using Google’s online program.

Ornelas said she hopes to expand these technological upgrades to the region. On Sept. 1, operations of BAT will transfer from the city of Bend to the Central Oregon Intergovernmental

Council, which runs the Cascade East Transit system that connects various cities in the region, including Madras, Bend, Prineville, Redmond and Warm Springs.

“The idea is that this would be a whole system-wide thing,” Ornelas said. “Now that we do have this as well as the (auto vehicle locator), it’s going to make it easier for us to use what we’ve learned with this same transition and start putting them in the Cascade East Transit buses.”

Cold cases Continued from A1 President Barack Obama’s attorney general, Eric Holder, has promoted his department’s handling of these cases, pointing out that 56 of 109 have been closed, with many more on the brink.

The department has taken the unusual step of writing letters to the families of victims, detailing the findings and explaining why the case cannot be pursued further — in many cases, because the suspect is dead.

Misleading stats?

But critics say the numbers are misleading, because instead of aggressively investigating the dozen or so cases that might still yield a viable prosecution, the department has taken the easier route of closing the ones that were long shots to begin with.

“If this whole effort goes through and there’s no evidence of an aggressive manhunt and it results in no prosecutions, then there will not be a credible acceptance of the results by the American people,” said Alvin Sykes, the president of the Emmett Till Justice Campaign in Chicago and an instrumental force in the passage of the Emmett Till Unsolved Civil Rights Crime Act in 2008.

Federal officials bristled at the criticism, saying that it is premature and that they have an obligation to review every case and bring “closure” to families.

“We have always known that

locating the subjects, witnesses and evidence for 40-year-old murder cases was going to be challenging, and that many of these matters would not be prosecutable,” said Xochitl Hinojosa, a spokeswoman for the Justice Department.

Waiting for action But families yearn for action.

Over the years, relatives of Louis Allen, a civil rights worker who was ambushed at his front gate in Liberty, Miss., in 1964, have met with countless officials and offered a $20,000 reward.

“Everybody put me on the back burner for years and years,” said Allen’s son, Henry Allen, 65.

He had hoped the cold case initiative would change things but said the response has been slow.

He said the legwork had been done.

“Here’s the people you can contact, here’s their phone number, here’s their address,” he said. “I don’t have the authority to go knock on their door, but you do — and it still don’t get done.”

Special Agent Cynthia Deitle, chief of the FBI’s civil rights division, said that agents were not permitted to share the progress of continuing investigations with families or the public. Witnesses, she said, might not always be forthcoming about having cooperated with the FBI. The Allen case remains open.

The Till bill authorized up to $13.5 million a year to solve racially motivated murders before 1970, but in fiscal year 2009 no money

was allocated. In fiscal year 2010, the Justice Department received $1.6 million for civil rights cold cases. The FBI received an $8 million increase for its civil rights division, which handles human trafficking, hate crimes, presentday civil rights violations and cold cases, a spokesman said. Officials have repeatedly insisted that lack of money was not an obstacle.

“There’s never been a resource issue whether it was people or money on our end,” Deitle said.

Stanley Nelson, the editor of The Concordia Sentinel, a weekly in Ferriday, La., has been cranking out stories on a cluster of killings in that area and were connected to the Silver Dollar Group, a Klan organization that terrorized the area with impunity in the 1960s. He has worked with the Syracuse University College of Law’s Cold Case Justice Initiative, where students have gone through thousands of FBI documents, even finding files on a missing black hotel porter, Joseph Edwards, that a federal prosecutor had said the bureau did not have.

In another case, that of Frank Morris, a black cobbler who died from burns after his shop was set on fire, it was Nelson who found and interviewed a witness, a black teenager who worked at the store.

At the time, his mother forbade him to speak to law enforcement officers.

“When we started the Frank Morris case,” said Janis McDonald, the co-director of the Syracuse project, “The FBI said, ‘You know, just about everybody is dead.’”

Shelton Chappell holds a picture of his father looking over the body of his slain mother Johnnie Mae Chappell, who was killed in March 1964 in Jacksonville, Fla., during the “It’s Never too Late for Justice: Pursuing Civil Rights Era Cold Cases” event sponsored by the Syracuse University College of Law in Atlanta in April.

Chile Continued from A1 The lubricant makes it easier to pass supplies through in capsules nicknamed “palomas,” Spanish for dove. The first of the packages, which are about 5 feet long and take about an hour to descend from the surface, held rehydration tablets and a high-energy glucose gel to help the miners begin to recover their digestive systems.

Rescue teams also sent oxygen down after the miners suggested there was not enough air in the stretches of the mine that run below where the main shaft collapsed.

The shelter, a living-room-sized chamber off one of the mine’s lower passages that is easily big enough for all 33 men, is far enough from the landslide to remain intact, and the men can also walk around below where the rocks fell. Actual food will be sent down in several days, after the men’s stomachs have had time to adjust, said Paola Neuman of the medical rescue service.

Rescuers also sent down questionnaires to determine each man’s condition, along with medicine and small microphones to enable them to speak with their families during their long wait. Rescue leader Andre Sougarret said they were organizing the families into small groups to make their talks as orderly as possible.

Drill on the way Meanwhile, an enormous machine with diamond-tipped drills capable of carving a 26-inch-wide tunnel through solid rock and boring at about 65 feet a day was on its way from central Chile to the San Jose gold and copper mine, outside Copiapo in north-central Chile.

The machine was donated by the state-owned Codelco copper company and carried on a truck festooned with Chilean flags. Just setting it up will take at least three more days.

Engineers were also boring two more narrow shafts to the trapped men, but stopped Mon-

day just above their refuge while they made sure that the lifeline was fully secure. Only when these three shafts are complete will they begin carving out the tunnel large enough to fit a man, Mining Minister Laurence Golborne said.

“We cannot be 100 percent precise, but the idea is to establish three or four points of contact so that we can guarantee better life conditions to our comrades down there,” he said.

Besides their immediate physical needs such as medicine to restore their raw stomachs and sleep cycles, the rescuers were preparing psychiatric counseling. A first step was the questionnaires, which were also intended to help identify their natural leader — someone who can make sure the men are keeping busy and mentally focused.

Above ground, rescuers and family members thought that might be Mario Gomez, who at 63 is perhaps the oldest of the veteran miners down below. Gomez’s letter to his wife, Liliana, which the miners tied to the drill bit, was full of expressions of faith and determination, revealing to the world that the miners were holding strong.

“Even if we have to wait months to communicate ... I want to tell everyone that I’m good and we’ll surely come out OK,” Gomez wrote, scrawling the words on a sheet of notebook paper. “Patience and faith. God is great and the help of my God is going to make it possible to leave this mine alive.”

But Urzua, 54, was the shift foreman at the time of the collapse, and Golborne said Monday that “it seems the miners respect hierarchies.”

For the miners’ families, euphoria and anxiety made for a sleepless night. They shivered through the cold and fog in Chile’s Atacama desert.

“We stayed up all night long hoping for more news. They said that new images would appear, so we were up hoping to see them,” said one, Carolina Godoy.

The men already have been trapped underground longer than all but a few miners rescued in recent history. Last year, three min-

ers survived 25 days trapped in a flooded mine in southern China, and two miners in northeastern China were rescued after 23 days in 1983. Few other rescues have taken more than two weeks.

The miners’ survival after 17 days is very unusual, but since they’ve made it this far, they should emerge physically fine, said Davitt McAteer, who was assistant secretary for mine safety and health at the U.S. Labor Department under President Bill Clinton.

“The health risks in a copper and gold mine are pretty small if you have air, food and water,” McAteer said.

Determined effort Mine officials and relatives of the workers were determined not to give up hope that the men were safe below where the tunnel collapsed Aug. 5 at the mine, about 530 miles north of Santiago, the capital.

Rescuers had drilled repeatedly in an effort to reach the shelter, but failed seven times. They blamed the errors on the mining company’s maps. According to Gomez’s note, at least some of those earlier probes were close enough that the trapped miners heard them. The eighth attempt finally worked.

Gomez wrote that the miners used vehicles for light and a backhoe to dig a channel to retrieve underground water. And while his message focused on faith and love for his family, his frustration also showed through. He wrote that “this company has got to modernize.”

Chile is the world’s top copper producer and a leading gold producer, and has some of the world’s most advanced mining operations. But both the company that owns the mine, San Esteban, and the National Mining and Geology Service have been criticized for allegedly failing to comply with regulations. In 2007, an explosion at the San Jose mine killed three workers.

President Sebastian Pinera said Monday that “there is not going to be any impunity” and said investigations were under way.

Cans Continued from A1 Until food can be bought, cooked and consumed via iPhone, we will remain a container society, a canned civilization, preserved, pickled, hermetically sealed against the ravages of time, a people whose food and drink shall not perish from the Earth.

Wednesday is the can’s 200th birthday.

Everyone takes the can for granted.

Until the end of this story, let’s not.

Great moments in cans 1810: A Frenchman named Nicolas Appert discovers a way to preserve soups, produce and dairy products in glass bottles using boiling water to force out air, and sealing the contents with cork, wire and wax. Other inventors soon adapt the process to tin cans, which are lighter, cheaper and more durable.

1978: A Delta Tau Chi fraternity brother named John Blutarsky methodically crushes several cans of beer on his forehead during the movie “Animal House,” causing generations of macho collegians to wound their brows (and pride) in copycat attempts.

Fact: One hundred thirty billion cans are produced every year in the United States, a metal army rattling down conveyor belts, tumbling down vending machines, fueling football fans, littering riverfronts.

One imagines an extraterrestrial explorer picking over our decimated planet years from now, after we’ve vaporized one another, and slowly turning in its spindly claw a faded can of SpaghettiOs, which might still be perfectly delicious, if the alien visitor could only get the dang thing open.

Washington, of course, has a can lobbyist, and his name is Robert Budway. He’s president of the Can Manufacturers Institute. On his bookshelf is a squat can of Fray Bentos Chicken and Mushroom Pie that he bought in Europe because he liked the look of it. It expired in December 2006. He thinks it might still be good,

A Schlitz “Tall Boy” can from the 1960s, dug from Smithsonian storage by Peter Liebhold, dwarfs a modern can of Coca-Cola.

“There’s no reason to have a beer this big other than to cop a buzz,” Liebhold says. but he’s not about to open it.

“I think it’s deep,” says Budway, of the allure of the can.

“It’s an appreciation of where the technology has come from, and from what a can meant to people generations ago who drank from that container. It’s about heritage.”

On shelves near the break room are antique and novelty cans (Sioux City sarsaparilla, resealable seltzer) and industry periodicals (Aluminum Now, Waste News). Hanging on a lamp is the industry mascot, named Al the Can. “Al” for aluminum. Get it?

“He has a little bit of edge to his personality,” says Jenny Day, the institute’s director of recycling, who dons the blue felt mascot costume for special events. “He’s dying to run with the presidents at the ballpark.”

Al the Can has a Twitter account, of course: Recycling all beverage cans for one year could save enough energy to light Washington D.C. for 3.7 years.

A helpful Facebook update: The weekends coming up. Be sure to recycle your beverage cans.

Society in a can The Smithsonian has a cache of antique cans locked away on an upper floor of the National Museum of American History. On a recent morning Peter Liebhold, chairman of the museum’s division of work and industry, slaps on blue latex gloves and hunts through the collection, divining evi-

dence of a changing society can by can.

Buying a tin of W.H. Baker cocoa in 19th-century Winchester would’ve been a cheap way for members of the lower class to increase their caloric intake and, therefore, their health and energy. A can of California apricots by Bennett Sloan & Co. represents the rise of the American monoculture, in which canning and shipping allowed farmers to specialize rather than diversify. A container of Sanka coffee depicts an Arab man in the stereotypical fashion of the early 20th century, a pinpoint in a spectrum of ethnic imaging through the ages.

“A can tells you so much for so many different reasons,” Liebhold says. “It allows us to look at ourselves as a consumer society — what are people buying when? When was the transition of eating certain fresh foods to certain packaged foods? How about aluminum versus steel?

The transition from skilled labor to machinery? How are people being enticed by can designing to buy more?”

He finds a Schlitz “Tall Boy” from the 1960s, tucked in the back of the highest shelf, and his eyes light up.

“There’s no reason to have a beer this big other than to cop a buzz,” he says, admiring the purity of its design.

Gulf oil spill claims process draws criticism

By Kim Murphy Los Angeles Times

VENICE, La. — It was barely 8 a.m. Monday, and already shrimper Lorde Duncan, 74, thumbed through paperwork that portends one of the most important decisions of his life: File a new claim for a share of the $20 billion fund set up to quickly compensate victims of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill? Or hire a lawyer and wait years, hoping for more?

Duncan said he has so far received only minimum emergency compensation checks from BP — he hasn’t been able to come up with the documentation required to prove he had substantial fishing income before the spill.

“If I had a million-dollar business, I’d have all that paperwork.

But I don’t have no big-time operation, writing checks,” he said as he sat and sweated on an ice chest outside the claims office in Venice, a fishing port barely 50 miles from the oil spill site.

“Daddy, you probably going to need an attorney just to figure this stuff out for you,” said his son, Virgil, 49, who came down to help file the new application.

The compensation program launched by government-appointed claims czar Kenneth Feinberg on Monday requires everyone who has been damaged by the oil spill to file new claims, even if they’ve been wrangling with BP over lost wages and ruined businesses.

Feinberg has pledged to run a compensation program that is speedy, efficient and fair. He promised to offer lump-sum payments that are equal to or better than what claimants would likely receive if they pursued litigation.

But government officials across the Gulf Coast, lawyers

Investigators focus on communication HOUSTON — Federal investigators seeking the cause of the rig explosion that led to BP’s massive Gulf oil spill focused Monday on communication and chain of command, wondering at times whether the key players knew enough to handle an emergency.

Neil Cramond, who oversees BP’s marine operations in the Gulf, acknowledged he rarely had contact with Paul Johnson, who managed the Deepwater Horizon rig for owner Transocean Ltd., which leased it to BP. The rig exploded April 20, killing 11 workers and spewing 206 million gallons of oil into the sea before a temporary cap stopped the flow in mid-July.

Cramond also testified that captains of rigs like the Deepwater Horizon are ultimately responsible for crew safety and environmental matters, but are not always involved in decisions about how to deal with drilling operations and potential risks.

— The Associated Press and potential litigants complain that Feinberg’s protocol offers substantially less protection than would be afforded in court under the 1990 Oil Pollution Act — which requires the payment of “interim” damages with no forfeiture of the right to sue.

In addition, Feinberg’s policies do not offer protection for future damages that could take years to emerge, critics said.

N B Feds criticize SeaWorld in death of trainer ORLANDO, Fla. — Federal investigators on Monday blasted SeaWorld Parks & Entertainment for allowing its animal trainers to work with killer whales without adequate protection, following a six-month investigation into the violent drowning of a trainer at SeaWorld Orlando.

Investigators with the U.S. Occupational Safety and Health Administration recommended that SeaWorld trainers never again have direct contact with Tilikum, the six-ton killer whale who drowned trainer Dawn Brancheau on Feb. 24. But they also recommended that trainers not be permitted to continue swimming or working in close contact with the company’s smaller killer whales — unless SeaWorld implements new safeguards.

FDA urges caution in preparing eggs Forget eating your eggs over easy. At least for now.

That’s the advice of the government’s top food-safety regulator after the nationwide recall of more than half a billion eggs tied to an

outbreak of salmonella poisoning.

Margaret Hamburg, commissioner of the Food and Drug Administration, said Monday the agency continues to investigate the source of the contamination and could issue additional recalls. Consumers should take extra safety precautions, such as washing hands before and after handling eggs and cooking the eggs thoroughly, she said.

“No more runny egg yolks for mopping up with toast,” Hamburg said on NBC’s “Today” show.

Tiger Woods, wife finalize divorce ORLANDO, Fla. — Tiger Woods’ long-anticipated divorce settlement has been finalized.

Lawyers for Elin Nordegren Woods filed the petition Monday in Panama City, Fla., to dissolve the marriage — 270 days after the bizarre SUV wreck outside their home that left the golfer needing medical attention and pulled back the curtain on a large-ensemble sex scandal.

By midday, the divorce was official. Terms of the divorce — such as how much it will cost Woods — were not disclosed.

MANILA, Philippines — It looked like a hostage rescue in slow motion: Police creeping up on the bus with sledgehammers and smashing first one window, then another, then trying and failing to rip open the door.

When they finally got inside, authorities said, they found nine bodies — those of eight Hong Kong tourists and the ex-policeman who had seized the bus to demand his job back.

The bloody denouement to the 12-hour drama in the heart of the Philippine capital, witnessed live on TV, rattled a country already accustomed to kidnappings and violence blamed on Muslim rebels.

It was 10:15 a.m. Monday in Manila when Rolando Mendoza, 55 and married with three children, hitched a ride with the tourists as they visited historic sites. He wore a camouflage uniform and carried an M16 rifle but didn’t seem unusual in the heavily policed capital.

Then he announced that he was taking the travelers hostage to win back his job.

According to newspaper reports, the former senior inspector was among five officers who had been charged with robbery, extortion and grave threats after a Manila hotel chef filed a complaint alleging they falsely accused him of using drugs to extort money. Mendoza was fired last year but claimed he was innocent.

W B Zardari: Flooding may embolden militants ISLAMABAD, Pakistan — Pakistan’s president said Monday that the calamitous flooding that is wreaking havoc across his country could foment public anger and embolden Islamist militants, but he expressed confidence that his government would survive the crisis.

Asif Ali Zardari, in a meeting with a small group of foreign journalists, called it the “ideal hope of the radical” that the floods would discredit Pakistan’s government, which has been criticized for its response. “One has to fight,” he said, against extremist groups that aim to scoop up orphaned children and “create them into robots.”

Nepal fails in 5th try for prime minister KATMANDU, Nepal — Nepal’s Parliament on Monday failed a fifth time to select a new prime minister, in a deepening political stalemate fueled by

ego and ideology that is alienating the public and crippling the government and economy.

On Monday, after months of political turmoil, legislators repeated the same unsuccessful pattern from four previous attempts to name a new prime minister. The two largest political parties, the Maoists and the smaller Nepali Congress, again fielded rival candidates, and again, leaders of the other political parties claimed neutrality.

Kenya seizes 2 tons of ivory, 5 rhino horns NAIROBI, Kenya — Kenyan authorities have arrested two people on suspicion of trying to smuggle over two tons of illegal ivory and five rhino horns to Malaysia, the Kenya Wildlife Service said Monday.

The tusks, which were mainly taken from 150 elephants that had died natural deaths over the past 20 years, were hidden in 12 wooden boxes listed as containing avocados, the agency said.

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF Cascade Bancorp airs revised ’09 earnings Cascade Bancorp, the parent company of Bank of the Cascades, released a revised annual report for 2009 showing a net loss from $114.8 million, up from a previously reported amount of $93.1 million.

The revision came because banking regulators told Bank of the Cascades in March to make its reserves for loan and lease losses deeper in 2009, Bank of the Cascades officials said earlier this month. The reserves are set aside in case of bad loans.

Cascade Bancorp officials did so, increasing the loan loss provision from $113 million to $134 million, but it caused other accounting changes in the full year 2009 and first quarter 2010 call reports. A revised first quarter report for 2010 has not yet been released, and the bank’s second quarter report is set to be released this morning at 6 a.m, said Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, Greg Newton.

Bank of the Cascades also filed an unopposed motion Friday related to a federal lawsuit it filed against a Philadelphiabased investment firm in July.

The motion would give the investment firm, Cohen & Co. Financial Management LLC, an extension from Aug. 23 to Sept. 15 to respond to the bank’s lawsuit.

The new motion says the parties have been in communication in an attempt to resolve the issue outside of court, an objective they believe may be possible.

In the suit, Bank of the Cascades alleges Cohen & Co. is refusing to adhere to an agreement the two made to discount and liquidate millions of dollars in liability Cohen & Co. holds against the bank. If that liability is liquidated, the bank alleges it could secure $150 million in investments it has been pursuing.

U.S. judges demanding tough bank settlements More and more, prosecutors face scoldings from the bench over deals with scofflaw financial firms

By Binyamin Appelbaum New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — Everything was rolling along traditional lines. A bank broke the rules. The government found out. The company agreed to pay a fine and improve its behavior.

And then the judge assigned to approve the deal blew his top.

In a scene that is becoming increasingly common, Judge Emmet G. Sullivan of U.S. District Court chewed out federal prosecutors at a hearing in Washington last week for a proposed

settlement with Barclays.

“Why isn’t the government getting tough with banks?” he asked.

Just one day earlier in the same courthouse, Judge Ellen Segal Huvelle refused to sign a settlement between the government and Citigroup, demanding, “Why would I find this fair and reasonable?”

She ordered government lawyers to return with answers next month.

HP ups rival Dell in race to exit PC business The Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — The world’s two biggest personal computer makers are locked in a pricey struggle over which can move away from the PC business the fastest.

Hewlett-Packard Co. offered $1.5 billion on Monday for 3Par Inc., a company whose data-storage machines are designed for “cloud computing,” or delivering services over the Internet. HP’s rival, Dell Inc., last week offered about $400 million less for 3Par, and many analysts and investors expect Dell to make a sweeter counteroffer.

HP’s offer comes just weeks after HP CEO Mark Hurd’s ouster over inaccurate expense reports and shows that the company is committed to continuing to grow through acquisitions, even without him at the helm.

hile shopping organic has for years been the vanguard of food trends, buying local is, at least in Central Oregon, the newest movement.

Gordon Benzer founded his new bakery, baked., based partly around buying local. Benzer uses mostly Northwest products to produce his breads and pastries, ranging from wholegrain and challah loafs to sweets, like lemon bars and scones. He sells the goods from his storefront on Northwest Columbia Street near Galveston and keeps hours relatively unusual for a bakery — from 12 p.m. to 9 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday.

“I want to feed the people who live and work

here,” Benzer said about his west-side neighborhood. “I want to build the business on the quality of the product rather than hype and advertising.

I’m really just much more interested in feeding people.”

Benzer, 25, does that by often using local, natural, organic ingredients in his breads and pastries, which he mixes and crafts by hand.

He keeps hours in the afternoon and evening because, he said, it’s an unfilled niche in Bend.

It allows customers pick up a fresh loaf of bread or dessert for dinner after leaving work or after picking children up from school. The bakery’s later hours also allow Benzer to work a more normal day, unlike most bakers, who start in the early hours of the morning.

Arrest offers glimpse of hacker’s world

By Andrew E. Kramer New York Times News Service

MOSCOW — On the Internet, he was known as BadB, a disembodied criminal flitting from one server to another selling stolen credit card numbers despite being pursued by the U.S. Secret Service.

And in real life, he was nearly as untouchable — because he lived in Russia.

BadB’s real name is Vladislav A. Horohorin, according to a statement released last week by the U.S. Justice Department, and he was a resident of Moscow before his arrest by the police in France during a trip to that country earlier this month. He is expected to appear soon before a French court that will decide on his potential extradition to the United States.

See Hacker / B2

A video on badb. biz, promotes credit card fraud as a lighthearted affair. American authorities say Vladislav Horohorin of Moscow, known as BadB, headed “one of the most sophisticated organizations of online financial criminals in the world.”

The New York Times

The willingness to spend so much money on such an obscure company underscores how aggressive both companies are about moving into more profitable markets than PCs. Cloud computing is one of those markets.

It has caught on because many companies aren’t buying their own computer servers for certain tasks anymore. Instead, they’re paying to have software they would have stored on those machines delivered to them over the Internet.

Companies such as Dell and HP are trying to take advantage of the trend by offering those kinds of cloud-computing services directly on a subscription basis, along with the equipment and software for customers to build their own cloud systems.

One problem, though, is the machines needed to run such operations are designed to be shared by multiple customers.

Those machines need to ramp up or scale down their output quickly based on demand. Storage machines offered by 3Par could help cut the cost of operating those services because they are designed for such tasks.

Dell opens with $1.13B Dell began the bidding contest last week by offering to buy 3Par for $18 per share, or $1.13 billion.

HP responded by offering a third more, or $24 per share, for a total of $1.5 billion.

Investors, believing Dell will make a counteroffer, sent 3Par shares above HP’s offer price.

Shares of 3Par closed Monday at $26.09, up $8.05, or 45 percent.

Bakery Continued from B1 Wednesday through Saturday, Benzer also sells Neopolitanstyle 10-inch pizzas for $5 to $7.

He grows the herbs for the pizzas and buys vegetables from local farmers and produce stands.

“The new organic is local,” Benzer said. “Everybody is trying to hop on that.”

Katy Van Dis agreed. Van Dis said the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council, her employer, and other groups are holding a food summit on Sept. 10 at Central Oregon Community College, which will examine how food is consumed and purchased. Van Dis said buying locally at places like community supported agriculture groups keeps money in the community, cuts down on food transportation and provides people with healthier food.

More than 550 people are now members of Agricultural Connections, a community supported agriculture group in Bend that started earlier this year.

Buyers purchase shares in the community supported agriculture groups, which then bring the buyers natural, organic produce and meats from local farmers on a weekly basis. “ ‘Make local habit’ has been going on in Bend for quite a while. The food movement has ridden those coattails,” said Andrew Adams, who operates Agricultural Connections. “There definitely is a bit of a revolution going on in Central Oregon.”

For Benzer, it’s also about people knowing what they’re eating.

He said he likes owning a bakery because he’s able to discuss with his customers how he makes the bread.

As the only employee of the bakery — his roommate and friend, Jeff Bierens, helps out with the pizzas — Benzer said he wants to keep the operation small for now. If he expands to more days each week, it would have to be with the right people, Benzer said.

If he does get other employees, Benzer said he wants to support them with living wages and health care. Those working in the food industry are often underpaid in Bend, he said.

A Michigan native, Benzer moved to Bend three years ago after graduating from culinary school at Grand Rapids Community College and working in the industry for a few years. In Bend, he helped start Jackson’s Corner, baking goods for the restaurant.

In December 2009, he had the idea to open baked., which he had up and running by May. With only a few months under

Hacker Continued from B1 In the U.S., Horohorin could face up to 12 years in prison and a fine of $500,000 if he is convicted on charges of fraud and identity theft. For at least nine months, however, he lived openly in Moscow as one of the world’s most wanted computer criminals.

The seizing of BadB provides a lens onto the shadowy world of Russian hackers, the often welleducated and sometimes darkly ingenious programmers who pose a recognized security threat to online commerce — besides being global spam nuisances — and who often seem to operate with relative impunity.

Law enforcement groups in Russia have been reluctant to pursue these talented authors of Internet fraud, for reasons, security experts say, of incompetence, corruption or national pride. In this environment, BadB’s network arose as “one of the most sophisticated organizations of online financial criminals in the world,” according to a statement issued by Michael P. Merritt, the assistant director of investigations for the Secret Service, which pursues counterfeiting and some electronic financial fraud.

As long ago as November 2009, the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington, in a sealed indictment, identified BadB as Horohorin, a 27-year-old residing in Moscow with dual Ukrainian and Israeli citizenship.

But it was not until Aug. 7 this year that Horohorin, who was traveling from Russia to France, was detained on a warrant from the United States as he boarded a plane to return to Russia at an airport in Nice, in southern France.

The Secret Service released a statement Aug. 11, when the indictment was unsealed. Max Milien, a Secret Service spokesman in Washington, said the agency could not comment about the decision to arrest Horohorin in France.

If he’s able to stay successful with the bakery, Benzer said he thinks the natural progression would be to open a sandwich shop.

woman for the Russian bureau of Interpol, said no U.S. law enforcement agency had Horohorin’s arrest in her country. “We never received such a request,” she said by telephone.

According to the Secret Service statement, Horohorin managed websites for hackers who were able to steal large numbers of credit card numbers that were sold online anonymously around the globe. Those buyers would do the more dangerous work of running up fraudulent bills.

The numbers were exchanged on websites called CarderPlanet — carder.su and badb.biz — according to the Secret Service, and payment was made indirectly through accounts at a Russian online settlement system known as Webmoney, an analogue to PayPal. Underscoring the nationalistic tone of much of Russian computer crime, one site featured a cartoon of the Russian prime minister, Vladimir V. Putin, awarding medals to Russian hackers. “We awaiting you to fight the imperialism of the U.S.A.” the site said, in approximate English.

Horohorin lived openly in Moscow. As a foreign citizen, he registered with the police, according to Dmitri Zakharov, a spokesman for the Russian Association of Electronic Communication, an industry lobby for legitimate Russian Internet businesses, who cited a database of such registries.

A phone number for Horohorin was out of service Thursday.

Arrests in Russia for computer crimes are rare, even when hackers living in Russia have been publicly identified by outside groups, like Spamhaus, a nonprofit group in Geneva and in London that tracks sources of spam.

The FBI in 2002 resorted to luring a Russian suspect, Vasily Gorshkov, to the United States with a fake offer of a job interview (with a fictitious Internet company called Invita), rather than ask the Russian police for help. To obtain evidence in the case, FBI computer experts had hacked into Gorshkov’s com-

puter in Russia. When this was revealed, Russian authorities expressed anger that the FBI had resorted to a cross-border tactic.

Online fraud is not a high priority for the Russian police, Zakharov said, because most of it is aimed at computer users in Europe or the United States. “This is a main reason why spammers are not arrested,” he said.

Politics may also play a role.

Vladimir Sokolov, deputy director of the Institute of Information Security, a Russian research organization, said the United States and Russia were still at odds on basic issues of computer security, although the differences were narrowing.

The United States tends to view computer security as a law enforcement matter. Russia has pushed for an international treaty that would regulate the use of online weapons by military or espionage agencies.

Last year the United States opened talks on a treaty, but it has continued to press for closer law enforcement cooperation, Sokolov said.

Computer security researchers have raised a more sinister prospect: that criminal spamming gangs have been co-opted by the intelligence agencies in Russia, which provide cover for their activities in exchange for the criminals’ expertise or for

allowing their networks of virusinfected computers to be used for political purposes — to crash dissident websites, perhaps.

Sometimes, the collateral damage for online business is immediate. A year ago, for example, hackers used a network of infected computers to direct huge amounts of junk traffic at the social networking accounts of a 34-year-old political blogger in Georgia, a country that fought a war with Russia in 2008. The attack, though, spun out of control and briefly crashed the global service of Twitter and slowed Facebook and LiveJournal, affecting tens of millions of computer users worldwide.

The Russian authorities have repeatedly denied that the state has any connection to such attacks.

Spamhaus says seven of the top 10 spammers in the world are based in the former Soviet Union, in Ukraine, Russia and Estonia.

More ominously, Western law enforcement agencies have traced a code intended for breaking into banking sites to Russian programming.

Since Horohorin’s arrest, the badb.biz website has gone dark.

But through Monday, at least, its CarderPlanet counterpart, the Russian site carder.su, was still open for business.

LOS ANGELES — International Lease Finance Corp. said Monday that it paid back the $3.9 billion it borrowed from the U.S. government, freeing up one of the world’s largest aircraft leasing companies to purchase new planes once again.

But a spending spree isn’t expected any time soon. Rather, the Century City, Calif., company will no longer have the short-term government debt that had weighed it down ever since its parent, American International Group Inc., received $182.5 billion in federal bailout money in 2008.

“We reacquired our financial freedom,” said Henri Courpron, ILFC’s chief executive.” We feel we’re at the end of the tunnel and back in the open again.”

Firms raises $4.4B in bond sale The aircraft leasing company was able to pay back the money it borrowed under the bailout after it was able to raise $4.4 billion from a bond sale. The bond market had been virtually frozen for the commercial aviation industry amid a slowdown in air travel.

With the airline business on the rise again, the bond sale and paying back the government couldn’t have come at a better time, Courpron said.

After suffering losses of $9.4 billion in 2009, airlines are expected to bounce back with

$2.5 billion in profits this year, its first since 2007, according to a recent forecast by the International Air Transport Association.

Passenger traffic is expected to grow 7 percent and cargo traffic 18.5 percent this year, the study said.

Owns, leases about 1,000 aircraft That means airlines are going to need more planes to meet the growing demand, Courpron said. ILFC owns about 1,000 planes worth about $40 billion that it leases to airlines.

But the company does not have any immediate plans to ink any big deals, Courpron said, noting that it already has outstanding orders for 115 new planes worth $13.5 billion.

ILFC didn’t announce any new deals at last month’s Farnborough International Airshow in England, one of the world’s largest aerospace showcases, while other leasing aircraft companies ordered nearly $30 billion worth of aircraft.

One of the biggest buyers at the air show was Steven UdvarHazy, ILFC’s co-founder and former CEO. Unhappy with being under government control, he left ILFC in February to start rival company Air Lease Corp., also based in Century City.

Udvar-Hazy’s orders were potentially worth $9 billion based on list prices and accounted for a third of all deals at the air show.

‘Superclass of drugs’ gains Roche’s support New York Times News Service Swiss pharmaceutical giant Roche is throwing its weight behind an experimental technology that could be used to treat a number of diseases.

The company has agreed to pay $25 million now and up to $1.1 billion later to Aileron Therapeutics of Cambridge, Mass., for developing a new type of drug technology called “stapled peptides.” They are expected to announce the agreement Tuesday.

Aileron, which holds patent rights from Harvard and the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, hopes to start clinical trials next year. It is testing a stabilized form of peptides, a small protein, to deliver medicine inside cells for a variety of medical conditions, including Roche’s priorities like treatments for cancer and inflammation.

“This is a significant commitment by a very smart

pharmaceutical company betting they’re finally going to unlock the power of peptides as a superclass of drugs,” said Joseph A. Yanchik III, the chief executive of Aileron.

The synthetic peptides, developed by a Harvard chemical biologist, have been described as a type of magic bullet that can deliver particularly potent doses of drugs at the cellular level.

They are stabilized in a helical shape that stays active longer in the body. Yanchik said they have been successfully tested in animals.

He said the company started preliminary talks with the Food and Drug Administration in June. The FDA must approve an investigatory new drug application before any human testing.

T F Web-TV interface options growing Many companies are making gadgets that pipe shows to living room screens

Phil Wiser, co-founder and president of Sezmi, with a TV displaying the firm’s user interface at Sezmi headquarters in Belmont, Calif. Startups and tech giants alike are offering what they say are easy ways to pipe shows and movies to a TV via the Internet

By Jenna Wortham New York Times News Service

If you want to watch Internet video on most televisions, you need a gadget that pulls it in.

And more and more technology companies want to sell it to you.

Startups and tech giants alike are offering what they say are easy ways to pipe shows and movies to a TV, hoping to win over people who might want a cheaper or more interesting alternative to cable and satellite service.

These companies have a lot of convincing to do. Most people do not have the tech-savviness or the time to tackle the hardware and software setup these products often require. And the companies are not able to offer access to many shows and channels that are on traditional pay-TV, nor bundle services like phone-calling and Internet access at a discounted rate, as cable companies do.

Most products don’t require subscription There are also several perks, beginning with the cost. Many of these products do not require monthly subscriptions, and those that do rarely cost more than $20 a month. And they try to make up for the lack of some programming by organizing the Internet’s offerings through an easy-to-navigate menu.

“People don’t want 400 overpriced channels,” said Phil Wiser, co-founder and president of Sezmi, a startup that thinks it has a shot at the big screen in the living room. “Consumers are ready to make a new decision

Peter DaSilva The New York Times

about how they are paying for television.”

Sezmi, based in Belmont, Calif., offers a hybrid system that delivers content in several ways.

The system, which sells for $150 at Best Buy, has a DVR and pulls in both over-the-air TV broadcasts and on-demand content from the Internet.

Others companies, like Boxee, think they can draw a sizeable audience without having to offer prime-time programming. Boxee’s free software pulls in online video from many sources around the Internet, including CNN. com. But the software requires viewers to watch on a computer, or hook the computer to a TV. In November the company will get around that problem by introducing a set-top box that runs its software.

Then there are companies that are taking a more symbiotic approach. Roku, for example, makes a slim black box starting at $70 that can wirelessly stream movies and television shows from Netflix and other sources, but does not aim to be a cable replacement.

“We’re more complementary,

for people who are shaving down their cable services or trimming the breadth of what they get,” said Brian Jaquet, a spokesman for the company.

A service called Kylo, introduced in February, is gearing up for the coming wave of Internetconnected television sets with free software that allows users to search the Web for things to watch through a special browser on their television screens.

All of these services are relatively new, so most have not yet gained any significant traction.

But analysts say that even the larger companies that are hoping to make inroads in this area have not found much success.

That is in part because many big media companies have been reluctant to make their best programming available online. That would give people fewer reasons to pay for expensive monthly cable and satellite services, which would in turn hurt the content companies.

The video site Hulu does not want people viewing its content on TV sets, so it has used technological means to block Kylo and Boxee users. Boxee has found

down” once a lawsuit is filed, said Sara J. Rose, an American Civil Liberties Union lawyer in Pittsburgh.

The Supreme Court has said that the First Amendment’s protection for the freedom of speech includes the right to publish “anonymous” pamphlets. But recently, judges have been saying that online speakers do not always have a right to remain anonymous.

Last month, the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals upheld a Nevada judge’s order requiring the disclosure of the identity of three people accused of conducting an “Internet smear campaign via anonymous postings” against Quixtar, the successor to the well-known Amway Corp.

“The right to speak, whether anonymously or otherwise, is not unlimited,” wrote Judge Margaret McKeown.

Quixtar had sued, contending the postings were damaging to its business.

The judge who first ordered the disclosure said the Internet had “great potential for irresponsible, malicious and harmful communication.” Moreover, the “speed and power of Internet technology makes it difficult for the truth to ‘catch up to the lie,’ ” he wrote.

Media law experts say lawsuits over Internet postings are hard to track because many of them arise from local disputes. They rarely result in large verdicts or lengthy appeals to high courts.

Media law experts repeat the advice that bloggers and e-mailers need to think twice before sending a message.

“The first thing people need to realize, they can be held accountable for what they say online,” Baron said. “Before you speak ill of anyone online, you should think hard before pressing the ‘send’ button.”

ways to circumvent this. Hulu is a joint venture of the News Corp., the Walt Disney Co., NBC Universal and Providence Equity Partners.

Apple TV not a hit Even Apple has struggled to gain traction with Apple TV, a $229 set-top box that is its attempt to bring its iTunes software and store to the heart of home entertainment.

“People love Apple, but we’ve seen a low adoption of their Apple TV,” said Jonathan Hurd, director of Altman Vilandrie, a

Boston consulting firm that studies consumer media habits. “Setup is a big factor. It’s typically more complicated than the average consumer is willing to put up with.”

There is speculation that Apple may be gearing up to take another shot at the market with a new device. And Google is diving in this fall. It has teamed up with several partners to develop its Google TV platform.

The Google software, which will pull together Web content and television channels in one programming guide, will be built into high-definition televisions made by Sony and set-top boxes from Logitech. It will be powered by a chip from Intel and

by Google’s Android software, originally designed for smart phones.

Consumers might be more prone to making the Internet switch than they were a few years ago, Hurd said. According to a recent survey conducted by his company, fewer than 40 percent of viewers younger than 24 watch television during prime time. And the number of people watching television shows on the Internet has doubled in the past year.

“The biggest threat to the traditional companies is on-demand video,” said Hurd. “The opportunity is there for a new entrant to come up with a compelling slice of on-demand content.”

Bing app estimates cab fare for given route

By Jen Leo McClatchy-Tribune News Service

You might be comfortable using MapQuest or Google Maps to get directions. But Bing Maps delivers a new reason to bookmark it: A feature that helps you estimate your cab fare.

The new “Taxi Fare Calculator” lets you figure out how much a cab may cost when you’re searching route directions. I found it was easiest to first plug in my destinations and then toggle between the map apps, such as the taxi calculator, Roadside Sculptures and Foursquare check-ins.

However, the app is a little hard to find. From the Bing. com home page, click on “Maps,” then “Get more from Bing Maps,” then the “Map Apps” icon at the bottom of the page and then pick it out of the list. And remember: You get only an estimate.

For a trip from Los Angeles International Airport to downtown, Bing displayed a fare of $62.30. But in phone checks, two cab companies quoted $49 — a flat rate that is set by local authorities.

be seized, one employee wrote in an e-mail quoted by prosecutors. “A good example is Cuba, which the U.S. says we shouldn’t do business with but we do.”

The Justice Department agreed not to pursue criminal charges against the bank. In exchange, Barclays admitted to wrongdoing, forfeited $298 million and agreed to improve employee training.

Justice defended the settlement as a “serious sanction” and said it did not seek a larger fine because Barclays had disclosed the crimes and cooperated with prosecutors.

“The public looks at this and says, ‘You know, they’re getting a free ride here,’ ” Sullivan told government attorneys Wednesday.

He said he agreed to approve the settlement despite his concerns because it is not his job to supervise the department.

Under the terms of Citigroup’s proposed settlement, which Huvelle has questioned, the bank would acknowledge concealing from shareholders the extent of its investment in subprime mortgages, which totaled more than $50 billion in 2007. The chief financial officer at the time, Gary L. Crittenden, told investors that the bank’s exposure totaled only $13 billion.

The SEC calculated that the company realized an economic benefit of up to $123 million from its misrepresentations but proposed to settle for a fine of $75 million.

“You expect the court to rubber-stamp, but we can’t,” Huvelle said.

Rakoff told an audience at Stanford in June that he hoped other judges would follow the example that he set last year in the Bank of America case.

Continued from B1 The scoldings from the bench are a striking departure from a long tradition of judicial deference to settlements formulated by federal agencies, reflecting broad disenchantment not just with Wall Street but with its government overseers.

It is a pattern that began last year, when Judge Jed S. Rakoff of U.S. District Court in Manhattan denounced the Securities and Exchange Commission for going easy on Bank of America, which the agency had accused of misleading its shareholders.

“The courts are staking out a role that, frankly, we seem to need,” said Jill E. Fisch, a law professor at the University of Pennsylvania. “They are standing in for the general public, the public interest and demanding more” from regulators.

Impact of judges’ disapproval varied The immediate impact, however, has varied. Courts have limited power over settlements.

Rakoff persuaded the SEC to punish Bank of America with a larger fine, but Sullivan gave grudging approval last week to the deal between the Justice Department and Barclays after airing his concerns for a second day.

Experts also disagree about the long-term consequences.

Some, like Fisch, expect regulators to seek more punitive settlements. Others said that agencies instead would favor lenient penalties that do not require judicial review.

The Barclays settlement, which Sullivan approved last week, involved charges that the British bank helped customers in Iran, Cuba and other sanctioned nations move more than $500 million into the United States, breaking federal law — and undermining national policy — for more than a decade. The bank distributed instructions to employees for circumventing internal controls, for example by obscuring the source of the transfers.

Moreover, employees knew the transfers were illegal.

The cover sheets “must not mention” the offending entity, which could cause the funds to

‘Be more proactive’ That case, he said, “may enable some of my colleagues to be a little more proactive in assessing SEC settlements in the future.

“I like to think that it will contribute to greater justice.”

But David S. Ruder, chairman of the SEC in the late 1980s, said that regulators were in a better position to determine the fairness of a settlement because they commanded both the specifics and context of each case.

THE BULLETIN • Tuesday, August 24, 2010 B5

“It’s my view that by and large the judge ought to give great deference to the judgment of the agency as to what’s the appropriate punishment,” said Ruder, now a law professor at Northwestern University.

The three judges, all appointed to the district courts by President Bill Clinton, have shown particular frustration with the government’s failure to punish individuals.

A worker arrives at Hewlett Packard Company headquarters in Palo Alto, Calif, in June.

Hewlett-Packard offered a $1.5 billion bid for data storage provider 3Par on Monday, just a week after rival Dell made a bid to buy the company.

Why no charges?

Rakoff repeatedly questioned the SEC’s decision not to bring charges against the Bank of America’s executives. The agency described their conduct as negligent but not fraudulent.

The New York attorney general, Andrew M. Cuomo, has since filed civil fraud charges against former Chief Executive Kenneth D. Lewis and another executive. They have denied the allegations, and the case is pending.

The Citigroup case includes companion settlements with Crittenden and another executive. But the SEC said in its complaint that other executives also had been aware of the legerdemain, prompting Huvelle to demand an explanation as to why other Citigroup executives were not singled out.

And the Justice Department did not seek to hold any employees responsible for the crimes that it attributed to Barclays, leading Sullivan to observe that corporations are inanimate objects.

Outbid Continued from B1 But many analysts are worried that the price for 3Par has gotten too high, meaning HP or Dell would be overpaying for the company. HP shares fell 81 cents, or 2 percent, to $39.04. Dell shares were down 13 cents, or 1.1 percent, to $11.94.

Analyst Ben Reitzes with Barclays Capital called 3Par “a very good fit for HP strategically” but said the timing and price “may raise a few concerns.”

Shaw Wu with Kaufman Bros. said 3Par’s shares have traded at around $10 for most of the year, so some investors are wondering why HP is now offering more than double that price.

“The biggest winners here are clearly 3Par employees and shareholders,” he wrote.

‘Powerful deterrent’ “You agree there must have been some human being who violated U.S. laws?” he asked the government’s lead attorney.

He proceeded to ask that same question in a dozen different ways, growing increasingly exasperated with the answers, until he finally interrupted the government attorney to ask, “Can I just share a thought with you?

“You know what?” he asked.

“If other banks saw that the government was being rough and tough with banks and requiring banking officials to stand before federal judges and enter pleas of guilty, that might be a powerful deterrent to this type of conduct.”

Treating all Foot Conditions

Each needs a win The tussle over 3Par comes at a time both companies are dealing with CEO troubles and badly need a win on Wall Street.

HP is eager to prove that it hasn’t missed a beat since the abrupt departure of Hurd, who engineered more than $20 billion in acquisitions in his five years atop HP. HP’s stock has fallen 16 percent since Hurd’s resignation, erasing about $17 billion in shareholder wealth.

Hurd resigned Aug. 6 in a dispute with HP’s board over how to handle a sexual-harassment al-

legation against him, something the board decided was meritless but felt it had to disclose anyway.

As part of that probe, the board found he had filed inaccurate expense reports connected to his accuser. Hurd says he didn’t do his own expenses, and that any errors were inadvertent.

Hurd had been instrumental in moving HP into markets beyond PCs and printer ink. One of his biggest bets was paying $13 billion for Electronic Data Systems, an outsourcing company.

That deal made HP look a lot more like IBM Corp., which has milked its software and services model for better profits than the PC business it sold off.

HP, Dell and other PC makers are victims of their own success.

The companies that made personal computers affordable and ubiquitous now have to lure new buyers with rock-bottom prices.

Prices for parts, meanwhile, have increased this year, putting even more of a squeeze on the computer makers’ profits.

There are signs the deal was being explored at HP before Hurd’s departure.

In a letter Monday to 3Par CEO David Scott — who previously worked as a manager in HP’s storage division — HP revealed that it had made an earlier offer for 3Par. That offer wasn’t made public.

HP wouldn’t say when the offer was made, or how much it was for. Dave Donatelli, an HP executive vice president, said HP has been looking at buying 3Par “for

a period of time.”

Jayson Noland, an analyst with Robert W. Baird & Co., said HP’s earlier offer was likely rebuffed because the price was too low.

While HP looks for a new CEO, Dell needs to shore up support for the CEO it has.

Michael Dell has been embroiled in a scandal about undisclosed payments the company took from Intel Corp. for allegedly avoiding chips from an Intel rival. Dell and the company settled Securities and Exchange Commission charges on that matter last month, without admitting wrongdoing.

Dell founder voted off board of directors Dell has lost the faith of some investors. Two weeks ago, investors holding a quarter of the company’s shares did not cast votes to re-elect him to the board of directors. A year ago, he was re-elected with 98 percent of the shares in his favor.

Dell can afford to bid up 3Par a bit, with almost as much cash on hand as the much larger HP. Dell declined comment on the company’s next move, while 3Par said its board was reviewing the offer.

Downgrade highlights air safety jumble FAA gives Mexico lower rating, but what does it mean?

Bonnie Rind holds a passport that belonged to her brother, who died in a plane crash in Thailand, at Boston’s Logan International Airport on Aug. 17.

Rind is pushing for better oversight of airlines.

By Susan Stellin New York Times News Service

Aviation officials often cite the industry’s low accident rate after a plane crash, and statistics back up their assertions: Last year, there were about 2.5 accidents for every 1 million commercial flights worldwide.

But that is still about 90 accidents, 18 of them involving nearly 700 fatalities, and safety standards can vary widely among airlines. Yet passengers and companies responsible for employee travel have little information to evaluate a carrier’s safety standards, or judge a particular country’s commitment to safety, given the patchwork of organizations monitoring safety and the limits on what details are made public.

That issue has been in the spotlight ever since the Federal Aviation Administration downgraded Mexico from a category 1 rating to category 2 on July 30, meaning it does not comply with safety standards established by the International Civil Aviation Organization, a U.N. agency that the United States and other countries rely on for guidelines.

Those standards evaluate whether a country has adequate laws to oversee air carriers and a civil aviation authority with the expertise, personnel and procedures to enforce safety regulations. The FAA typically does not disclose why a country’s rating has been downgraded, leaving travelers — and some industry officials — in the dark about how to interpret the change.

Mexico’s transport ministry has said the downgrade was because of an insufficient number

Jodi Hilton The New York Times

of aviation inspectors, a situation it is working to correct. In the meantime, the category 2 rating means that Mexican carriers cannot code-share with American carriers, or add new service to the United States, although existing flights between the two countries may continue.

About 20 countries have a category 2 rating, including Belize, Honduras, Indonesia, Israel, Nicaragua, the Philippines, Uruguay and many African nations.

Although the U.S. government does not evaluate individual airlines, the European Union maintains a list of carriers that are banned from flying to its airports; that blacklist includes more than 200 airlines, mostly from Africa, Indonesia and the Philippines.

The International Air Transport Association, a trade group representing 230 carriers, maintains a registry of airlines that have passed its operational safety audit; about 340 carriers have met hundreds of criteria, like ensuring crew members have been trained in procedures, like responses to wind shear.

While the registry is considered valuable, it has some limitations. Many of its provisions

defer to national regulations on things like pilot rest, meaning a carrier simply must demonstrate it abides by local rules, which can vary. Other criteria are suggestions, not requirements.

“It’s the industry policing itself,” said Bruce McIndoe, president of iJet, a company that provides risk intelligence services, including airline safety, to corporate clients.

McIndoe said his primary concern was aircraft maintenance, particularly given the growth in global air travel and the pressure to find qualified workers — and properly certified (not black market) parts.

That is a message Bonnie Rind has been trying to spread ever since her brother died in Thailand in 2007. His One Two Go Airlines flight from Bangkok to Phuket crashed while trying to land, killing 90 of the 130 people on board.

Reports issued by Thai investigators and the National Transportation Safety Board found several pilot errors. Both pilots had exceeded their duty time limits, had insufficient rest before the flight and had not received required training.

Rind, an engineer who has some flight experience, did her

Bank of Japan facing pressure to counter falling prices, wages

By Hiroko Tabuchi New York Times News Service

TOKYO — The economist Milton Friedman once famously proposed scattering money from a helicopter to get consumers to spend their way out of deflation — the debilitating decline in prices and wages that can act as a deadweight on economic activity.

Copter cash may not yet be among the tools considered by the Japanese central bank in its quest to lift the country out of a long deflationary slump.

But pressure is mounting on the Bank of Japan for more drastic action — even if Japanese officials still show little willingness, or ability, to step in.

Last week, the deflation doldrums that have becalmed Japan’s economy for much of the past decade helped knock Japan

from its long-held ranking as the world’s second-largest economy.

(China edged up to No. 2, behind the United States, where some economists warn that deflation could yet hobble the U.S. economy.)

Meanwhile, recent signs of a Japanese recovery now seem to be fading: The economy grew an anemic 0.1 percent from April to June. And a strengthening yen, which hurts Japan by making its exports less competitive, has many people calling for the bank to further ease its monetary policy to shore up the economy — if not for outright government intervention in currency markets.

But on Monday, hopes for decisive action were dashed when Prime Minister Naoto Kan and the Bank of Japan governor, Masaaki Shirakawa, opted not to hold a widely anticipated meet-

ing, but instead engaged in a 15minute phone call in which the two did little more than agree to “communicate closely with each other.”

“There was absolutely no talk” of currency intervention in their conversation, Yoshito Sengoku, the government’s top spokesman, told reporters.

The Nikkei stock index slipped 0.68 percent to 9,116.69 on Monday, its lowest close this year, following Sengoku’s comments.

The yen continued to hover close to 15-year highs, or around 85.35 yen to the dollar.

“The government has again taken a wait-and-see attitude,” said Norio Miyagawa, senior economist at Mizuho Securities Research and Consulting. “The truth is, there are no quick fixes, but markets are disappointed that they got nothing at all.”

own investigation, using the Internet to connect with Western-trained commercial pilots working in Thailand. She said she had found evidence of a broader pattern of lax oversight of airlines in Thailand (posted at investigateudom. com), and met with representatives from the FAA to press for a more thorough review of the country’s safety standards.

“I showed them what I had collected and asked them how it was possible Thailand was a category 1 country,” Rind said. “They told me that they couldn’t answer specific questions about Thailand or any other review.”

Local math teacher Melinda Knapp is Oregon’s finalist for the Presidential Award for Excellence in Math and Science, according to a news release.

Knapp, an educator at Sky View Middle School in Bend, was named Oregon’s finalist in a ceremony last week. The award is one of the most prestigious in the country, recognizing teachers who demonstrate excellence in leadership and instruction.

According to Julianne Repman, commu n ic a t io n s director for the Bend La Pine School District, Knapp has a good chance of winning.

Melinda “We’d be Knapp very surprised if she didn’t win,” said Repman, adding that Knapp will find out in the spring whether she is the recipient of the award.

One of the main reasons Knapp was nominated was because of her innovative education methods. Three years ago, Knapp developed a classroom for teachers to share lesson plans and collaborate with other educators to improve teaching strategies. The classroom has expanded since then, with Knapp working with teachers and administrators from 18 schools across the state.

Under terms of court settlement, company will hold election for new board of directors

By Lauren Dake

By Patrick Cliff A few broken windows at Evergreen Elementary in Redmond have the school district concerned about the building becoming a vandal’s target, a worry that comes as the district is working to find a buyer for the school.

The district closed Evergreen at the end of the 2009-10 school year, and students will move to Sage Elementary, which opens in September. The district funded Sage’s construction with money from the $110 million bond district voters passed in 2008.

During the campaign to pass the bond, the district promised taxpayers that Evergreen — which has also housed a high school and a middle school during its roughly 90 years — would remain standing, even after Sage opened this year.

The Evergreen real estate agent is putting out feelers for potential buyers who may be interested in developing a building with such a restriction, according to district spokeswoman Stephanie Curtis. The district will also assemble a team of staff members in the coming weeks to decide on next steps.

But the market is likely small because Evergreen has to stay standing, Curtis said. “Because of that, there are limited buyers,” she said.

Crooked River Ranch water war may finally be over

MADRAS — After nearly a decade of battle, some Crooked River Ranch Water Co. customers said the war was won on Monday afternoon.

In a Jefferson County Circuit courtroom, a settlement was approved; according to court documents, an election for a new board of directors for the water company will be held within 90 days.

For years, water customers have questioned the way the water company was being run.

They said they had no control over a company that they technically own. They alleged that they were denied access to financial records and stated the water rates were unfair and money was being mishandled. Some members signed a petition so the Oregon Public Utilities Commission could regulate the water company.

There have been lawsuits, investigations and interventions.

The Oregon Department of Justice has been involved.

“My feeling is, we won,” said 72-year-old ranch resident Spike Durfee. “We have a chance now for a transparent water department. We’ll now do things in an ethical way. ... We’ll have a good, solid board (of directors).”

Harry Brown, another ranch resident, who has been working to replace the water board for many years, said, “This will get some honest people in there to run the company.”

DOUGLAS COUNTY

Late berry crop has lured more bears to the area The Associated Press ROSEBURG — Black bear sightings have been unusually high this summer in Douglas County, with some bears passing through the area and others sticking around and causing problems for people.

Federal wildlife officials told The News-Review in Roseburg it is partly because the berry crop is late this year so many of the animals are hungry and trying to

fatten up for winter.

The lack of their natural food source means bears are coming out of the forest to find a meal by tipping over garbage cans, eating dog food, killing livestock and expecting handouts from humans.

Officials say those handouts are one of the most serious problems because bears that expect food from humans are dangerous and can damage property and threaten livestock.

O Corps spends $10M to move salmon past Cougar Dam

By Susan Palmer The Register-Guard (Eugene)

BLUE RIVER — The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers spent $10 million this year on a complex system to move spring chinook salmon from the base of the Cougar Dam to the South Fork Mc Kenzie River above the dam.

Spring chinook once coursed up the McKenzie River and the 25 miles of the South Fork, some of the most productive fish habitat in the area.

Old methods Cougar Dam, built in 1963, changed all that, blocking the fish from moving upstream. At the time, Corps engineers built a facility at the base of the dam that would allow officials to trap salmon and haul them by truck past the reservoir and to the river.

But once the dam was in place,

salmon stopped dead at the mouth of the South Fork, about 4 1/2 miles downstream. Put off by the cold water spilling into the river, they came nowhere near the trap.

The Corps built a fish hatchery to compensate for the loss of habitat, but that didn’t keep the salmon numbers from declining.

By 2005, the Corps had built a $55 million temperature control tower on Cougar, allowing the agency to pull warmer water from the reservoir into the river, a move that did attract fish to the base of the dam. But the old trap and haul set-up was old and inadequate.

New system Building the new system employed about 30 people per month during its busiest season, with $3.5 million in contracts with local subcontractors and $2.5 million with area suppliers.

The resulting Cougar Dam Adult Fish Collection Facility is a lengthy concrete fish ladder that starts at the base of the dam and stair-steps up through 31 small pools to a holding tank where a worker can sort the wild salmon from the hatchery-raised fish.

Tracking fish A burst of water into the tank encourages the fish to leap into a water-filled raceway where they can be directed into another tank that empties into a truck below, or into a smaller tank where they can be anesthetized and a DNA sample taken.

The Corps plans to sample all the fish, said Corps biologist Greg Taylor. Knowing whether they are the offspring of wild or hatchery fish will allow the Corps to track which fish are most successful in South McKenzie, he said.

O B Human remains spotted on Hood PORTLAND — Authorities say human remains have been found on Mount Hood, and an expedition is planned this week to see whether they are of two climbers missing since December.

The Clackamas County sheriff’s office wouldn’t say where the remains were found — except that it was above treeline. It says the remains have not been positively identified.

Katie Nolan, of Portland, and Anthony Vietta, of Longview, Wash., were among a party of three attempting to climb the mountain on Dec. 11. The body of the third member of the party, Luke Gullberg of Des Moines, Wash., was found on a glacier the next day.

At least two other climbers are missing on Mount Hood, but their route in 2006 was on the northern side of the mountain in the jurisdiction of another county.

Nude gunman fires shots in dispute

‘SECTOR COLUMBIA RIVER’

MEDFORD — Police in southern Oregon are searching for a naked gunman who allegedly fired shots at people who confronted him for performing “indecent acts” near a remote access road to a mountain lake.

Jackson County sheriff’s deputies said they were responding to a report that a 53-year old suspect, identified only as “Larry,” fired multiple

gunshots at a group of three men and three women around 1 p.m.

Monday near Howard Prairie Lake.

Deputies told the Mail Tribune in Medford the suspect left the area in a gray and blue pickup truck after firing the shots.

Californian charged in sailor’s 1980 killing PORTLAND — A California man has been charged with aggravated murder in the 1980 death of a sailor in Oregon.

Prosecutors said 49-year-old Patrick Timothy Royster was arraigned Monday in Multnomah County Circuit Court in Portland following his extradition from Contra Costa County, Calif., where he was in jail on unrelated charges.

Royster is accused of killing 21year-old Ronald Clinton Moses, who was in the Navy stationed aboard the USS Monticello while it was in dry dock at Swan Island for repairs. His body was found May 3, 1980, floating in the Willamette River.

The joint investigation included Portland Police Bureau’s cold case unit, the Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office and the Naval Criminal Investigative Service.

Woman’s body found behind Tigard City Hall

who was walking through Fanno Creek Park. KGW says the man who reported the body says it was that of a fully clothed woman, face down in the creek.

No other details were immediately available.

Brookings company fined $13K over erosion PORTLAND — State regulators have fined a Brookings company $13,179 for allowing stormwater runoff from a stockpile of dirt to pollute the Chetco River and a creek on the Oregon Coast.

The Oregon Department of Environmental Quality said Monday that Da-Tone Rock Products Inc. had piled up the dirt on property owned by Robert and Doris Allsup of Harbor.

The couple have appealed a fine of $17,111 over the same incident.

The department says muddy water ran off the stockpile into Joe Hall Creek and the Chetco River, damaging salmon habitat. Da-Tone Rock Products has until the end of this month to appeal the fine. The company did not immediately return a call for comment.

A kiteboarder sails along the Columbia River in Hood River earlier this month. The Coast Guard is shifting command of its Columbia River sector from Portland to Astoria.

(541) 647-1646

Astoria stands to benefit from Coast Guard changes Relocation of command center from Portland to Warrenton brings some 35 people to area The Associated Press ASTORIA — Command of the Coast Guard along the Columbia River is shifting west from Portland to Astoria.

A change in leadership called “sectorization” has created a new region called “Sector Columbia River”; it will make the Astoria area the new command center, rather than Portland.

As part of the change, the Coast Guard will eliminate its Group Astoria and fold those operations into the new Sector Columbia River, under the command of Capt.

Doug Kaup — the former commander of Group Astoria.

The Daily Astorian reported the new command structure is expected to bring about 35 new Coast Guard jobs to the Astoria area.

It also moves the key shipping security role of captain of the port from Portland to Astoria, and will

allow the Coast Guard to control Columbia River Bar closures locally.

A new command center is being built in Warrenton that will be staffed round the clock to take emergency calls from mariners or anyone needing the Coast Guard’s search and rescue capabilities.

For now, the command center staff is stuffed into a temporary triple-wide trailer just a few yards from the construction taking place on the second floor of the Coast Guard Air Station’s hangar.

The new sector stretches from the coast of Oregon and southern Washington east to include most of Idaho. Personnel from what is now Sector Portland have moved to Astoria to roughly double the staffing during round-the-clock watches.

Along with a familiarity with the Portland metro area, which

the new Sector Columbia River will cover, the Portland staff brought much of the physical components from the dismantled Portland Command Center.

Sector Portland, now headed by the current captain of the port, Capt. Len Tumbarello, will transform and become Marine Safety Unit Portland, with a new captain in charge. Tumbarello will move to Astoria to become the deputy sector commander.

Lt. Cmdr. Chad Fait, who moved to the area from Washington, D.C., just three weeks ago to take the reins as command center chief, said the transition, so far, is “running pretty seamless.”

Just a few years ago, Fait was the operations officer aboard the Astoria-based Cutter Alert. He describes himself as a “cutterman” and a sailor, and together with the rest of the crew, he will bring a range of experience to the job.

“It’s a good group of people with lots of different backgrounds. It gives us a lot of knowledge,” Fait said.

Field burning limits compound hardships of grass-seed growers

By Denise Ruttan Statesman Journal (Salem)

SALEM — It has been a year since the Oregon Legislature passed Senate Bill 528, significantly reducing the number of acres that grass-seed growers in the Willamette Valley can burn.

Now that it’s burning season again, the longtime agricultural practice is back in the spotlight for rural residents facing another hot summer and for grass-seed growers struggling in tough times.

Oregon grass-seed growers were able to burn 65,000 acres total until 2009, said John Byers, the director of the Oregon Department of Agriculture’s Smoke Management program.

“The legislation said we can

burn henceforth up to 15,000 acres in the North Willamette Valley, but essentially that’s the Silverton hills and some portions of east Linn County,” Byers said. “Growers cannot burn any acreage in most of Linn County, Lane County or Benton County, except for 2,000 acres of emergency burning.”

For growers, the deeper restrictions come at a tough time for a crop that’s linked to the rises and tumbles of the housing market.

“It’s a double-edged sword, with the economy and the restrictions in field burning,” Sublimity grassseed grower Derek Schumacher said.

Farmers must shorten crop rotations and work the fields more when they can’t burn, Schumach-

er said. He has been considering growing canola to take advantage of the burgeoning biofuels market, but he is waiting for the OK to grow a crop that could lead to cross-pollination.

Many rural residents who live around the grass-seed farms of the Silverton hills are torn between supporting the area’s farming community and concerns about their health.

Stephanie Jorgensen, of Stayton, spoke in support of the burn ban legislation last year. This year, she’s keeping her two children inside on burn days.

“It is disappointing that we continue to be inflicted with poor air quality due to field burning,” Jorgensen said.

Chairwoman Publisher Editor-in-chief Editor of Editorials

It’s time to lead

U

nfortunately, the unpleasantness that defined Deschutes County’s recent race for district attorney didn’t end in May, when Patrick Flaherty unseated longtime incum-

bent Mike Dugan.

At least some of the department’s 18 deputy district attorneys now intend to unionize, and the reason couldn’t be more obvious. Flaherty recently told Chief Deputy District Attorney Darryl Nakahira to start looking for a new job, and Nakahira’s colleagues have every reason to wonder who might be next.

“I have spoken with your successor,” county legal counsel Mark Pilliod told Dugan in a July e-mail. “He’s definitely ready to make some changes soon after taking office. ... I don’t know who might be affected, but I can guess.”

Pilliod told us Monday that his “guess” list doesn’t include any specific attorneys (which we find doubtful).

Rather, he says, change could come for “any member of the DA’s office,” as these are the people Flaherty ultimately has to supervise. No wonder some are reaching for a union lifeline.

Plenty of people share the blame for this mess, beginning with Dugan, who decided to use his bully pulpit to support controversial tax Measures 66 and 67. If he hadn’t done that, his staff might have no reason to fear a flurry of pink slips.

And then, of course, Flaherty stood by while his supporters waged a harassment smear campaign against Dugan and his staff. It worked, and now Flaherty must manage (or fire) a number of attorneys who neither like nor trust him — perhaps for good reason.

Talk about pyrrhic victories.

Now, we’re not naive. Flaherty will inherit a staff hired by the guy he just defeated. Many of them probably wouldn’t like him much even if this spring’s campaign had been unfailingly civil. But as the person who asked voters to make him the county’s top prosecutor, Flaherty has a unique responsibility to make his relationship with his future employees work.

They’re the people who conduct the

day-to-day business of the office, and many of them have years of experience serving this community. A good leader seeks ways to hold onto skilled and valuable employees under difficult circumstances.

Flaherty has all but disappeared into a bubble of silence since May, at least as far as the public is concerned.

He responded to our call Monday with an e-mail stating, in part, that he doesn’t believe it’s “in the best interest of the office or individuals in the office to discuss personnel or employment issues at this time.” Nevertheless, by design or accident, he’s been sending clear and unsettling signals to the county’s prosecutors. And their responses — including potential unionization — communicate plenty to the very public Flaherty doesn’t feel obligated to speak to himself. And it isn’t good.

Fortunately, Flaherty still has time to demonstrate that voters picked the right guy. To this end, he ought to measure success by the number of prosecutors he manages to win over, not the number he’s free to fire. And for those he does fire — presumably there will be more than one — he should do so for performance-related reasons. To fire a good prosecutor merely because the person supported Dugan is, ultimately, a disservice to crime victims and taxpayers.

As for county prosecutors, we hope they’re as invested in Flaherty’s success as Flaherty should be. Those who aren’t deserve to be fired.

Finally, Dugan should do everything possible to ensure a smooth transition with minimal bloodshed. When he volunteered to stump for Measures 66 and 67 (even as Rep. Judy Stiegler, his wife, all but hid), he put more jobs than his own at risk. He must do what he can now to preserve them, no matter how much it might sting.

Limiting school options

V

irtual charter schools — no walls, no classrooms, just students, the Internet and teachers — have Oregon’s education establishment tied in knots. A handful of the schools are popular, and school districts fear losing even more students and money to them.

Virtual schools’ popularity also has alarmed the Oregon Education Association, which never has been a fan of any charter school in this state, virtual or not. The reasons are simple. Charter schools are not required to hire union teachers, and money that follows students to them is money not available for traditional public schools and unionized teachers.

The result has been a series of laws designed to keep virtual, and indeed all, charter schools in check.

The original bill allowing the virtual schools passed in 2005 included a provision that the schools must draw 50 percent of their students from their home school districts. In 2009 lawmakers upped the ante by requiring those enrolling in virtual charters to get approval from their home districts. Earlier this year lawmakers ordered the state Board of Education to come up with new rules for the schools covering everything from budgets to governance and records.

That’s not all bad, surely. As Sisters residents and others learned to their dismay last year, the operators of some

charter schools have apparently played fast and loose with taxpayer dollars, forcing the schools to shut down midyear. In the disarray that followed, parents had problems finding their students’ records so that they could switch schools quickly and easily. Finding a way to keep the charter school bad apples honest is worth the effort. So too is assuring that records are available quickly to those who need them.

The education board is to report on charters to the Legislature in a couple of weeks, and one thing its members agreed on earlier this month is this: While most board members professed a belief in allowing parents to choose which schools their kids will attend, all agreed that choice should be limited. If too many kids want to bail from a district for a virtual school, some will be barred from doing so.

That may keep tax dollars flowing to local school districts, but it misses the point. Rather than limit how many students may leave a given district, the state should be asking why so many students wish to leave. It should be seen as a sign of something seriously wrong if a huge number of kids want to opt out of their hometown schools.

With limits in place, neither local districts nor the state will have to address what might be wrong. That doesn’t serve students well. It doesn’t serve those who pay for public schools any better.

My Nickel’s Worth Vote for DeBone I would like to add my name to the list of those who support the candidacy of Tony DeBone for a seat on the Deschutes County Commission.

DeBone has been a loyal supporter of the La Pine community both in his role as president of the board of directors for the La Pine Park and Recreation District and as a successful business owner in La Pine. He has worked tirelessly over the years for this community and will do no less for the citizens of Deschutes County.

DeBone listens to all sides of an issue before deciding on a solution or plan. He understands collaboration and is willing to review his opinion on issues when given evidence that such a review is warranted. He, unlike some politicians, is willing to say, “I made a mistake.” That is one of the marks of a true leader.

Unlike his opponent, DeBone has held long-term employment and owned his own business, giving him a greater level of credibility and the ability to relate to all the citizens of the county.

Experience is critical, both when it comes to everyday life and most especially when it comes to representing the citizens of Deschutes County.

I urge all business owners and citizens in Deschutes County to strongly consider supporting DeBone, not based on party affiliation, but based on his age, success with the park and recreation district, experience in the workplace and his demonstrated willingness to listen and apply “good old common sense” to the issues at hand.

I am 100 percent in support of the police ticketing cyclists. And I am 100 percent in support of there being an education program option that cyclists could take in lieu of the ticket. ... [A]s a first step, I am offering to teach this course free of charge to the city.

I’ll teach it I am an avid cyclist and have been a resident of Bend for over 10 years. I, like a number of people, am frustrated with the behavior of some cyclists in our town.

This morning, on my walk to coffee, a middle-age gentleman ran a red light (knowingly) at Franklin and Bond and another gentleman was riding his bike on the sidewalks in downtown — both illegal actions.

I am 100 percent in support of the police ticketing cyclists. And I am 100 percent in support of there being an education program option that cyclists could take in lieu of the ticket.

I understand The Bulletin’s commentary regarding that such a program must not be a burden on the city’s finances.

Thus, as a first step, I am offering to teach this course free of charge to the city. I am a licensed and certified teacher in the state of Oregon. I

am willing to write the curriculum, work with city officials and others on review of the curriculum, teach the class (up to eight times per year) and develop a “train the trainer” program to ensure sustainability.

Now, (a) is the city willing to step forward and (b) is anybody willing to provide a space, free of charge, where I can teach the course?

Law and politics As I read your nearly three-quarter page (including photo) story on California’s consideration of a law to allow the recreational use of marijuana, I kept waiting to see some reference to the federal law. I found none.

You might have mentioned that marijuana is, under the federal controlled substances law, a Schedule I controlled substance whose production, supply and possession are prohibited without a federal government license.

Other substances in this category include heroin, morphine, codeine, LSD and quaaludes.

Without judging whether California should or should not pass a law that ignores the existing federal law, one has to wonder why it is that the U.S. Department of Justice seems so much less concerned about this than it is about the Arizona immigration law.

Why is it acceptable for California, or apparently any other state, to pass a law that completely circumvents the federal law but not for Arizona to pass one that mirrors and enforces it?

Do you think it might be politics?

Mentally ill moving into group homes are targets, not threats

By Rosanna Vanderhoeven Bulletin guest columnist

T

his letter is in response to the article “Mental health homes irk N.E. Bend” printed on the front page of the Aug. 15 Bulletin. The article listed the addresses of the new Telcare homes as located near Juniper Elementary and Pilot Butte Middle School. As a parent of a child who will be attending Juniper and as someone who served as a chaplain in a state hospital, I would like an opportunity to chime in on this matter.

I am more concerned about the safety and well-being of the people moving into those homes than I am for the local residents. Are these residents (neighbors) sitting around their dinner tables tonight talking about how awful it is that “those

people” are moving in? Are they showing fear and anger? Probably — and their kids are listening to every unspoken word. This is what scares me. Because we know from experience that if a person is in any way different or seen as weak, kids can respond in some of the cruelest ways imaginable and feel peer pressure to do so.

How do you think these kids are likely to act when they see a young man, say 30, standing on the porch of one of these homes smoking a cigarette, maybe gently mumbling to himself? One may start pointing and laughing, one may yell taunts, and another may throw a rock to see how the man reacts. They may start gathering outside the home in throngs, waiting to catch a glimpse of one of the

IN MY VIEW “psychos,” or whatever name a parent may have used. In my opinion, this is more imaginable than a new resident with mental illness harming a child.

Mental illness is a medical condition, not a crime or a moral failure. How about getting upset and meeting together about the neighbor with the drug-addicted teenager? The man who comes home drunk every other night and beats his wife? Or how about the elderly woman with the big dog that often gets out of her backyard and threatens to bite? There are no letters that go out in the mail warning about these people moving in next door.

There are no group announcements.

Who gets to choose their neighbors even in the best situations?

I hope in an upcoming meeting there will be education and an opportunity for both adults and children to ask questions regarding what they might expect from their new neighbors. Maybe an explanation of what these disorders involve, how advancements in medication can ameliorate the adverse symptoms, and that it is possible for many to work and participate in society. But these things are complicated and not made possible when they are treated like outcasts and not allowed the opportunity of living in homes like these. The number of people that suffer from untreated mental illness in Bend has grown tremendously over the last 10 years, and our perspective of the problem

cannot be to turn our nose up and say, “Not in my neighborhood.” That kind of ostrich head-in-the-hole approach does not work and only makes things worse.

Solutions come when citizens become educated and involved in progress, and reject ignorance and passivity.

I do not mean to imply that all the neighbors sounded the alarm. In fact, I hope that there will be leaders in that neighborhood who step up and become examples of what it means to be neighborly in Bend. And I hope that people will be careful about what they teach their children about mental illness through their words and actions, because it is a rare family that remains untouched by it.

Rosanna Vanderhoeven lives in Bend.

Edward Kean, head writer for ‘Howdy Doody Show,’ dies at 85

By Dennis McLellan

Dr. James Tanner was an expert in child development New York Times News Service

Dr. James Tanner, an English pediatrician who developed standards for measuring a child’s development during puberty and helped define what constitutes normal growth, died Aug. 11 in Wellington, near Taunton, in southwestern England. He was 90.

The cause was a stroke, said his wife, Gunilla. Her husband also had prostate cancer, she said.

Tanner was equal parts meticulous researcher and creative thinker whose interests lay where the fields of biology, psychology and sociology intersect.

He wrote widely, discussing, for instance, how the growth patterns of children can be powerful indicators of how their societies care for their young, and examining the connection between a child’s physical and psychological development during adolescence.

The study yielded, among other things, a growth chart of the sort that is familiar to every parent who brings a child to a pediatrician’s office, except this one expanded the range of growth patterns considered normal and led to the general understanding that neither early nor late maturation of a child is, on its own, an aberration.

But the broken windows are a reminder of what both city and district leaders have worried would happen if Evergreen became an empty shell in Redmond’s core.

Oregon wildfire update

Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Edward Kean, the original head writer for “The Howdy Doody Show,” the pioneer NBC children’s TV program for which he also created characters and wrote the songs, has died. He was 85.

Kean died Aug. 13 of complications of emphysema at a health care center in West Bloomfield, Mich., said family friend Del Reddy.

“Say, kids, what time is it?” host Buffalo Bob Smith would shout at the start of each show, which starred the famous freckle-faced boy marionette clad in cowboy duds. “It’s Howdy Doody Time!” the children in the studio’s “Peanut Gallery” would respond.

Initially launched as “Puppet Playhouse” in December 1947 and renamed “The Howdy Doody Show” some months later, the program featured an array of costumed human characters and marionettes.

Smith was a well-known New York City radio disc jockey when he hired Kean, a World War II Navy veteran, to write material for Smith’s radio show. They went on to make TV history with “The Howdy Doody Show,” for which Kean also wrote the “It’s Howdy Doody Time” theme song.

“Eddie Kean invented ‘Howdy Doody,’ basically,” said Stephen Davis, author of the 1987 book “Say Kids! What Time Is It?”

acteristics like genital size, and amount and length of pubic hair.

For much of his career, Tanner was associated with two London hospitals specializing in the care of children, the Institute for Child Health and Great Ormond Street Hospital for Children. Though his research, early on, was focused on the children of 20th-century Britain, his data and his theories have been applied across the world.

Though the city has not submitted an official offer, it has informally offered $250,000.

City Manager David Brandt said Redmond remains interested in the building and that the offer still stands.

Brandt also worries about Evergreen falling into decline.

“With it being vacant, we don’t have the luxury of wait-

Beginning in the late 1950s, Tanner was among the first scientists to study how and when to use human growth hormone to treat children with growth retardation and other deficiencies. And he was one of a handful of scientists who first suggested that growth data could be applied in fields like sociology and economics.

He argued, for example, that because early nutrition was a determining factor in a person’s reaching his or her maximum height, then conversely the average height of a culture’s population during a given period in its history said much about how that culture nurtured its children.

“If you are asking what determines the height of an individual, it’s 90 percent genetics,” Tanner explained in Hall’s book. “But if you’re asking what determines the mean height of 100,000 individuals, forget the genetics because that doesn’t change. It’s the environment.”

ing,” Brandt said. “I don’t want to inherit a building that’s been trashed. We have to do it now because if it sits vacant for a year or two, my guess is the building will be in bad condition.”

As the district continues trying to sell the building, handling vandalism could become a top district priority.

Snyder said the district hopes the broken windows are not part of a trend. Putting up wood over the windows could prevent more damage, but that’s a problematic option, he said.

“That’s not preferable,” Snyder said. “Hopefully, (it will) never happen because that would be an eyesore for the neighborhood.”

For now, the Boys & Girls Club of Redmond uses the gym for sports, but as the weather cools the district has to decide whether to heat the building. And Evergreen will soon be empty, with no furniture, books or computers to be found.

Police presence Because of the impending vacancy, the Redmond Police Department may step up patrols around the area. The department reviews maps of problem areas

Musician Michael Been helped found ’80s band The Call

By Claire Noland Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Michael Been, a singer, songwriter, guitarist and founding member of the Northern California modern rock band the Call, which broke out with the 1983 MTV hit “The Walls Came Down,” has died. He was 60.

Been (pronounced Bean) died Thursday after suffering a heart attack at the Pukkelpop festival in Hasselt, Belgium, where he had been serving as a sound engineer for his son Robert’s band Black Rebel Motorcycle Club.

Formed in Santa Cruz as the ’80s were dawning, the Call gained a reputation for epic anthems showcasing a ringing guitar sound and socially conscious, spiritually aware lyrics written by Been and sung in his earnest, emotive style.

The band, based in the Bay Area, featured Been on lead vocals and at various times guitar and bass, Scott Musick on drums, Tom Ferrier on guitar and Greg Freeman on bass (replaced later by Jim Goodwin on keyboards). The Call’s self-titled debut album in 1982 was followed a year later by “Modern Romans,” which yielded the hit song “The Walls Came Down.”

each week and increases patrols accordingly, according to Sgt. Mike Kidwell. No such spike has happened around Evergreen over the summer, according to Kidwell.

But the school is near the department and already has a heavy police presence, he said: “The unique thing about Evergreen is it’s (almost) kitty-corner from us.”

‘I’m just hoping we can find a solution’ School board Chairman Jim Erickson hopes the district won’t have to worry much longer about Evergreen’s security. If the district can close a deal with the city or another buyer, the building could be an active and busy construction site.

But if the building is vacant for long, a few stones through windows could be the start of something troubling.

“I’m just hoping that we can find a solution to this that moves us toward what we all want, which is for that building to become a community resource,” Erickson said.

Water Continued from C1 And Timothy Gassner, who has represented the water company since the spring of 2006, said the goal of the settlement is to stop the court battles. “The intention and goals is to the put the issues to rest,” Gassner said.

The elections will be run by a neutral third party that both the water company and the residents agree upon. Retired judges are being looked at for consideration. Anyone but employees of the water company will be eligible to run in the election. The company’s manager, J.R. Rooks, was not in court on Monday and could not be reached for comment.

The state Department of Justice investigated the water company and raised questions about the board’s oversight of how Rooks was running the company. The investigation said Rooks ran the company as a family business. The investigator wrote that Rooks and his wife, Jacquie, the bookkeeper, worked hours that would be difficult to sustain over a period of years. After a three-year investigation, no criminal

charges were filed.

In 2006, the PUC started regulating the water company after ranch residents signed a petition asking them to do so. It lowered bills and eliminated an $8 assessment surcharge. But the PUC regulation was appealed to the Oregon Court of Appeals. The company’s jurisdiction stopped until it took over again in 2009.

One point of contention was the water company said it was no longer a company, but a cooperative. The PUC can’t legally regulate a cooperative. A judge ruled that the water company’s move to restructure to avoid regulation by the Oregon Public Utilities

Commission was invalid.

Gassner said whether candidates are pro-PUC regulation or not could be an issue during the campaign.

Durfee, who said he won’t be running for a spot on the board, said right now it’s time to enjoy what he described as a victory.

“I feel the membership of the water company has fought long and been tenacious and determined to get this thing as far as we got it,” Durfee said. “This is the beginning of a new chapter.”

Tradition moving from Sunriver to Birmingham, Ala. The Tradition golf tournament, staged in Central Oregon for the past four years, is moving to Birmingham, Ala., the Champions Tour announced Monday.

Now named the Regions Tradition after the tournament’s new title sponsor, Birmingham-based Regions Financial Corp., the tournament, a major championship on the 50-and-older professional golf circuit, will be played at Shoal Creek Golf and Country Club.

The 2011 Tradition is scheduled for May 2-8.

The Jeld-Wen Tradition, as the tournament was known for the last eight years when it was staged in Oregon, has been played every August since 2007 at Sunriver Resort’s Crosswater Club.

Shoal Creek has hosted two PGA Championships and the 1986 U.S. Amateur. But the private golf course has not hosted a major professional golf tournament since the PGA Championship in 1990, when the club came under fire for having what was then an all-white membership.

Klamath Falls-based JeldWen announced earlier this month that it would no longer be the tournament’s title sponsor after the 2010 Tradition, which was won by Fred Funk on Sunday. Jeld-Wen’s departure all but assured that The Tradition would no longer be staged in Central Oregon.

Jake Clark, 14, of Bend, performs a bri flip during free skate at the Truck Stop Skate Park in Bend on Saturday, Aug. 14. Clark competed in the pro division of the Northwest Scoot Championships.

It’s all the rage Scoot riders show their stuff at recent championships in Bend

By Katie Brauns The Bulletin

Almost every adult remembers the original scooter — a wooden plank and a stick, with ramshackle handlebars to turn the wheels.

Like most things, scooters have evolved.

The scooters of 2010 are used for COMMUNITY much more than cruising around SPORTS the neighborhood a la the characters in the old TV sitcom “Leave It to Beaver.”

The sturdy metal scooters of today are all the craze among youngsters.

They are performing tricks galore, like skateboarders.

“The front models — the basic of all the decks that we ride — are what started the sport in 2005,” says

Where to go TRUCK STOP SKATE PARK 1307 N.E. First St., Bend 541-647-2482 www.truckstopskatepark.com Portland’s KC Corning, 23, CEO and president of Trick Scooters International, a scooter manufacturer.

Corning, a professional scoot rider for the past eight years, claims to be one of the pioneers to scooter trick riding. “(The scooter) was a toy in 2000,” Corning recalls. “And then throughout the first half of the decade we saw these riders go from just scootin’ around, pushing around the streets, to actually doing tricks like backflips and front flips just like you see on BMX bikes and skateboards, and

PREP FOOTBALL

airing out as high as BMX riders and skateboarders.

“The sport came from nothing, like skateboarding did, and became something. And now it’s come to the point where it’s overwhelming some skate parks in the Northwest.”

Corning was in town recently for the Northwest Scoot Championships at the Truck Stop Skate Park.

The competition featured a pro trick competition and big air contest, as well as trick comps for youngsters.

According to Corning and others in the sport, the spread of various scoot tricks is global, thanks to the Internet and, in particular, YouTube.

“It’s a newer sport, so I thought there would be more of a chance to go big in it and be original,” says Jake Clark, 14, of Bend, who is sponsored

fter carting his teenage son across the state for years to compete in bike races, Bend’s Mike Reightley was tired of being a spectator. Besides, cyclocross looked like “too much fun,” he says.

Two years ago, Reightley went from cycling dad to competitive bicycle racer. But he soon discovered that his years of recreational mountain bike riding did not translate into the success he had hoped for in the racing arena.

“I put a lot of miles on my bike and had no problem riding 50-mile mountain bike rides,” says Reightley, now 53. “But as soon as I got in the first ’cross race, I realized how much faster and more intense it was. I ran out of gas pretty quickly. When you have to push up the intensity and the cardio … I just felt like this is way different than what I expected. I wasn’t in near as good of shape as I thought I was.”

Reightley competed in about a dozen local and regional cyclocross races over the last two years, and he typically finished among the bottom third in his age group. While he says he had no expectation of placing on par with the elite veterans against whom he competes, he nonetheless wanted to improve his fitness and performance.

So this year, he hired a cycling coach. Michael Larsen, of Bend, teaches spin classes at the Athletic Club of Bend and provides training programs for about a half-dozen local cyclists (in addition to a number of runners and triathletes).

Reightley was impressed with Larsen’s own racing resume and his quality-over-quantity approach to training. (Larsen is familiar to many Central Oregonians. In addition to being the older brother of the late Steve Larsen, a world-class cyclist and endurance athlete, Michael Larsen is an accomplished elite masters racer).

Since following Larsen’s training plan, which he began this past spring, Reightley has gone on to win two local mountain bike races — Sisters Stampede and Pickett’s Charge! — and he recently claimed the Category 3 men’s title at the state cross-country mountain bike championships.

Reightley says having a coach has kept him focused and motivated while he pursues his ultimate goal of performing well at cyclocross nationals when they return to Bend in December.

“It has produced some pretty good results for me,” he says of working with a coach. “I’ve lost a lot of weight and am stronger in a whole host of areas. The success in bike racing is secondary to feeling good about my general level of fitness.”

BREAK OUT THE PADS

Practice opens for team hit by medical condition

By Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press

McMINNVILLE — The McMinnville High School Grizzlies opened fall football practice on Monday while two of their teammates remained hospitalized and doctors tried to determine why 24 players developed a condition that caused intense pain and dangerous swelling in their arms.

Authorities say 11 players were treated in the emergency room last week, 13 were admitted and three required surgery to relieve pressure caused by the swelling.

Authorities still do not know what caused the condition, called compartment syndrome, which is marked by high enzyme levels in the blood and can be caused by certain drugs or by strenuous exercise, dehydration or a combination of factors.

The athletes were taking part in an immersion camp organized by new coach Jeff Kearin to get ready for the season. Some were present for an intense training session on Aug. 15, the night before camp opened.

Devin Draper, a sophomore left guard, did not come down with any symptoms, but said Monday that teammates were as perplexed as anyone by the rash of players who succumbed.

S B Football • Police stun, arrest naked OSU football player: Corvallis police, responding to an early morning call about a naked stranger inside a home, eventually resorted to stun guns to take an Oregon State University football player into custody. Police say the young man refused to comply with officers’ instructions to get down on the ground early Sunday morning. Instead, Sgt. Mike Mann says the nude man dropped into a “three-point stance, like football players do, like a lineman, and lunged at the officers.” They arrested 19-year-old Tyler Patrick Thomas of Kalispell, Mont., for investigation of criminal mischief and resisting arrest. Mann says police believe Thomas had been drinking. The Corvallis Gazette-Times says he was booked into Benton County Jail but later released. The newspaper reports Thomas was dismissed from the OSU team after the arrest. An offensive lineman, Thomas redshirted the 2009 season for the Beavers.

• Collins signs with Bears at QB: The Chicago Bears have added a lot of experience at quarterback with one move. The Bears have signed 38-year-old Todd Collins, who’s played for Washington, Kansas City and Buffalo. He is expected to battle the injured Caleb Hanie for the No. 2 spot behind starter Jay Cutler.

• Seahawks release WR Hass to add Brandon Jones: The Seattle Seahawks have released former Oregon State wide receiver Mike Hass to make roster room for newly acquired free agent wide receiver Brandon Jones. The team had agreed to terms with Jones on Sunday. The 27-yearold played in eight games for San Francisco after the 49ers gave him a $16.6 million free-agent contract last year. Seattle released Hass for the second time this month.

Baseball • Strasburg going on DL with forearm strain: Rookie ace Stephen Strasburg of the Washington Nationals is headed back to the disabled list. The team says he will have a second MRI on his arm in the next day or two. Strasburg strained a tendon in his right forearm over the weekend, and Nationals manager Jim Riggleman said Monday the team would “proceed with caution” with the prized pitcher.

The 22-year-old Strasburg was sidelined in late July because of inflammation in the back of his right shoulder.

He was making his third start since returning from the DL when he was hurt Saturday night in Philadelphia.

• Damon claimed by Red Sox, deciding whether to go: Johnny Damon is deciding whether to return to the Boston Red Sox. The Detroit Tigers outfielder has been claimed on waivers by Boston, and it’s up to him if he wants to go.

Damon said before Monday night’s game against Kansas City that it’s one of the toughest decisions of his career.

The 36-year-old Damon has a no-trade clause that allows him to block any move. Damon was a hero in Boston in 2004 when he helped the Red Sox win an elusive World Series championship. But that changed two years later when he moved to the rival Yankees as a free agent.

• Mexico boots Puerto Rico from LLWS: Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, has eliminated Manati, Puerto Rico, from the Little League World Series after a 4-2 win Monday, though the evening games were cancelled because of rain. Little League was able to get two other games in earlier Monday, including Kaoshiung, Taiwan’s 23-0 rout of Vancouver, British Columbia. Ramstein Air Force Base, Germany, beat Plymouth, Minn., 2-1, in a consolation game. The game between Ohio and Georgia was called off with one out in the bottom of the first. Connecticut and Washington never got started Monday night.

• Judge in Clemens case issues gag order: A judge assigned to Roger Clemens’ perjury case issued a gag order Monday prohibiting public comments by the principles in the case that could affect the jury pool for a possible trial.

Clemens was indicted by a federal grand jury Thursday for allegedly lying to Congress. The six-count indictment accuses the seven-time Cy Young Award winner of obstructing a congressional inquiry with 15 different statements made under oath, including denials that he had ever used steroids or human growth hormone. Clemens has denied any wrongdoing.

Basketball • Kwame Brown, Michael Jordan reunited again: The draft decision helped define both men in harsh terms: Michael Jordan was a failed executive, Kwame Brown a bust as a player. Now, nine years after Jordan took Brown with the No. 1 overall pick in the draft, they’re reuniting in hopes of shedding both labels. The Jordan-owned Charlotte Bobcats on Monday came to terms with Brown on a one-year deal for the veteran minimum of $1.3 million.

Agent Mark Bartelstein said Brown will sign today.

TENNIS ROUNDUP

Wozniacki wins title at Rogers Cup The Associated Press MONTREAL — Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark won the rain-delayed Rogers Cup on Monday, beating Vera Zvonareva 6-3, 6-2.

Wozniacki is ranked second in the world and, with No. 1 Serena Williams out with an injury, likely will be the top seed when the U.S. Open starts Aug. 31. The 20-year-old is seeking her first Grand Slam title.

“I never think about that — I just try to win every match,” she said. “We’ll have to see what happens. Right now, I want to enjoy winning this tournament. It gives me a lot of confidence to win a tournament like this — it’s a huge tournament.”

The Rogers Cup final was held a day late after a weekend of relentless rain.

Zvonareva, a Wimbledon finalist, was clearly off her game. The eighth-seeded Russian at times let out shrieks after misfiring on routine shots.

Wozniacki’s groundstrokes, meanwhile, were hitting the lines with their usual sharpness.

She picked up her third title of the year, after wins at Ponte Vedra Beach, Fla., and at her home tournament in Copenhagen.

“I did what I had to do,” said Wozniacki, a firsttime Rogers Cup champion.

Leading 5-3 in the first set, Wozniacki fell behind 0-40. But she responded with five straight points to close the set.

After breaking serve for a 5-2 lead in the second, Wozniacki wrapped it up with four straight points on her serve, gave a little fist pump and walked up to shake hands with her opponent.

Wozniacki took the $350,000 winner’s prize while Zvonareva got $175,000.

The semifinals were played in the morning.

Caroline Wozniacki celebrates after beating Vera Zvonareva in the final to win the Rogers Cup tennis tournament Monday in Montreal. and Zvonareva advanced when her opponent, 10th-seeded Victoria Azarenka of Belarus, retired with a blister on her left foot. Zvonareva led 7-6, 1-0.

Trainers worked on Azarenka’s foot for several minutes. She got up and tried to walk, but immediately sat back down.

She said the injury was not severe enough to

keep her out of the U.S. Open.

“I don’t see how I got a blister after sitting on my (rear end) for two days,” said Azarenka, who was in tears as she spoke to reporters after the match. “I tried to deal with it, but I couldn’t continue.”

Wozniacki and the 11th-seeded Kuznetsova completed a semifinal that began Saturday and was stopped due to rain with Wozniacki leading 2-0, 0-15.

Zvonareva played her semifinal on the National Bank Court, a smaller venue adjacent to Centre Court, contributing to her problems in the final.

“It was a different court, different conditions,” she said. “It was difficult to keep my concentration. I was preparing to play Victoria for two days and they have absolutely different styles. In the final, I was still playing shots I would use in the semifinals. My head was not in the final.”

Also on Monday: Oudin falls in Pilot Pen opener NEW HAVEN, Conn. — Melanie Oudin was hoping to get in a few more matches before heading back to the U.S. Open, where she was a fan favorite last year during a surprising run to the quarterfinals. No such luck. The 18-year-old Oudin disappointed the sparse crowd at the Pilot Pen, losing in the opening round of the tuneup tournament, 6-2, 5-7, 6-4, to lucky loser Dominka Cibulkova. Also, Russian Dinara Safina upset French Open champion Francesca Schiavone 1-6, 6-3, 6-1, and Nadia Petrova rallied after being down one set and 5-2 in the second to beat American Varvara Lepchenko 1-6, 7-5, 6-1. In the men’s draw, two-time Pilot Pen champion James Blake beat Pere Riba of Spain 6-0, 6-1 in just 35 minutes.

Flag flies high after Indian gets PGA Tour victory

By C. Rajshekharrao The Associated Press

NEW DELHI — Arjun Atwal did more than win a golf tournament.

He may well have changed how the sport is regarded in India.

“Undoubtedly the biggest thing to happen to Indian golf,” said Gaurav Ghei, who in 1997 became the first Indian to qualify for the British Open. “An achievement that most of us never even dreamt of.”

Atwal captured the Wyndham Championship in Greensboro, N.C., by one stroke Sunday. He is India’s first PGA Tour winner and the first Monday qualifier to win on the tour in 24 years.

Atwal, plagued with injuries the last year, finished at 20-under 260 to win by one stroke. He led by three shots entering the final round.

He made $918,000 — more than double what he previously earned this year. The victory allows him to play on the PGA Tour for two years.

The last qualifier to win on the

GOLF tour was Fred Wadsworth at the 1986 Southern Open. Atwal had to play his way into the Wyndham after losing his tour card last month because he was too low on the money list when his medical exemption ran out. He had injured his shoulders weightlifting.

“I do remember Atwal saying that he wanted to win on the PGA Tour,” said Ghei, who has three Asian Tour titles since turning pro in 1991.

“Hats off to him for sticking it out in the U.S. on his own and doing it. It was a proud moment to see the Indian flag flying high. I hope this acts as a springboard for the game here.”

Brandon De Souza, who has organized most of the golf tournaments in India the past two decades, called it a conquest of the “last frontier.”

“Indians had already won on the Asian, European and Japanese

tours, but this is a new high,” De Souza said. “I hope the government and sponsors realize the enormity of this achievement and think beyond cricket.”

Atwal’s long climb extended beyond the golf course. Three years ago, a driver trying to race him down a street in Orlando, Fla., died in a crash. Atwal was cleared of wrongdoing, but the yearlong investigation exacted took a toll.

Gaganjeet Bhullar, a promising 22-year-old player on the Asian Tour, suspects the face of Indian golf is likely to shift with Atwal’s victory. He thinks the victory might result in more player exemptions.

“It could change the careers of Indian golfers and the way we look at the game,” he said. “With Indians doing well on other circuits, it was long overdue and comes as a welcome relief for us. I saw the match live on television and was thrilled at the way he managed a par on the last hole.”

AL ROUNDUP Rangers 4, Twins 0 ARLINGTON, Texas — Joe Mauer’s clean single to center field with one out in the ninth inning broke up the no-hit bid of four Texas Rangers pitchers. The Rangers beat Minnesota in the sixth no-hitter this season broken up in the ninth inning. Starter Rich Harden was activated from

the disabled list earlier in the day and he went 6 2⁄3 innings before being lifted after throwing 111 pitches. Matt Harrison got the final out of the seventh. Darren O’Day pitched the eighth and AllStar closer Neftali Feliz got one in the ninth before Mauer singled.

Cardinals 10, Pirates 2 PITTSBURGH — Albert Pujols hit a three-run home run one pitch after injured Pirates starter Ross Ohlendorf was pulled during a four-run St. Louis first inning, and the Cardinals moved to within a game of the NL wild card lead by beating Pittsburgh.

Kyle Lohse (2-5) pitched five scoreless innings before giving up Garrett Jones’ two-run homer in the sixth. Lohse was lifted one out later, but still won for the first time since May 17 against Washington.

Financial records show the Pirates win while losing

By Alan Robinson The Associated Press

PITTSBURGH — Don’t feel too sorry for the cellar-dwelling Pittsburgh Pirates. Losing has been profitable.

The Pirates made nearly $29.4 million in 2007 and 2008, according to team financial documents, years that were part of a streak of futility that has now reached 18 straight losing seasons. The team’s ownership also paid its partners $20.4 million in 2008.

The documents offer a rare peek inside a team that made money by getting slightly less than half its income (about $70 million) from MLB sources — including revenue sharing, network TV, major league merchandise sales and MLB’s website. The team also held down costs, keeping player salaries near the bottom of the National League, shedding pricier talent and hoping that untested prospects would blossom.

The club’s earnings were included in nearly 40 pages of statements that the Pirates submitted to Major League Baseball and were recently obtained by The Associated Press. Team officials briefed local reporters on portions of the material Sunday. The AP wasn’t invited to the session, which owner Bob Nutting said was “aimed at the recent leak.”

“The numbers indicate why people are suspecting they’re taking money from baseball and keeping it — they don’t spend it on the players,” said David Berri, president of the North American As-

sociation of Sports Economists and the author of two books detailing the relationship between finances and winning.

“Teams have a choice. They can seek to maximize winning, what the Yankees do, or you can be the Pirates and make as much money as you can in your market. The Pirates aren’t trying to win.”

Club executives vehemently disagreed with that assessment. Yet the numbers show Pittsburgh hasn’t spent as much as its opponents — and hasn’t won.

By 2010, the Pirates had baseball’s lowest opening-day payroll — $34.9 million or just $2 million more than in 1992, the club’s last winning season. The Pirates run of consecutive losing seasons is now the worst in the history of major American pro sports teams.

Pirates officials say they are trying to field a competitive team, and that there is nothing nefarious in the team’s financial dealings. MLB backs them up, saying Pittsburgh has complied with the rules for revenue sharing, which are supposed to help less well off clubs compete with the likes of the New York Yankees and the Boston Red Sox. Still, Pittsburgh fans have long complained that the club’s various owners have been more interested in profits than performance, and top sports economists who reviewed highlights of the team’s statements wondered if it now makes more money losing than it could by winning.

“If they won and were forced to in-

crease their payroll from $34 million to $75 million or $80 million ... how profitable would they be?” Berri said. “There’s a ceiling in terms of gate revenues.”

Economist Roger Noll, a Stanford University economist, said: “Probably the Pirates would be less profitable if they tried to improve the team substantially.”

Pirates president Frank Coonelly said the team spends its revenue-sharing money in several ways designed to create a winner: scouting; amateur draft choices; a new Dominican Republic academy that cost more than $5 million; player development; and, an expensive new computer system used in player evaluation.

According to the documents, the Pirates spent $23.2 million in 2008 and $21.2 million in 2007 for player development, in line with other clubs.

The Pirates’ strategy of building with prospects rather than with proven players was illustrated this month when they paid nearly $12 million for amateur draft picks, putting them at or near the top of baseball, and raising their draft expenditures to $31 million for the past three years.

They also spent another $2.6 million for 16-year-old Mexican pitching prospect Luis Heredia, the highest price they’ve paid for an international prospect. General manager Neal Huntington, who was hired three years ago, said the team has a plan for the future and is in the middle of executing it.

Coonelly said in an interview with

the AP last week that Pittsburgh, one of baseball’s smaller markets, still will need help after it climbs in the standings.

“Even when we’re winning, we will be a revenue-sharing recipient... and in much better position to generate revenue and, depending on how we control other expenses, to generate additional income,” he said. “But you can win without an $80 million payroll. We’re seeing it this year.”

Indeed, San Diego had the secondlowest opening day payroll and the Padres are leading the NL West. Tampa Bay went to the World Series in 2008 with a relatively low budget.

Revenue-sharing funds come from each team’s local revenues — every team is charged 34 percent — and are redistributed among the lower-revenue teams. The only stipulation is that the money should be spent on making the team competitive. There is no set amount for payroll.

“The Pirates have fully complied with the Basic Agreement requirements for the use of revenue-sharing proceeds,” Rob Manfred, MLB’s executive vice president for labor relations, told the AP in an e-mail. The Basic Agreement is the labor contract between the MLB’s 30 clubs and the players union.

The Pirates issued a statement Sunday, saying it was wrong for the financial statements to have been released to the AP. “Someone with access to the Club’s

financial statements has breached his/ her fiduciary obligation to the Club by providing a copy of the Club’s audited financial statements for the 2007 and 2008 seasons to the Associated Press,” the statement read. “The Club is a private company that has no obligation to publicly report its financial results and, like most private companies, has consistently declined to do so.”

The statement also said “the revenues generated by the club are being reinvested back into the club in both long-term and short-term investments needed to completely overhaul and rebuild this baseball team.”

“The Club has paid no dividends to its partners. Moreover, while it is quite common for a Chairman of the Board of Directors of a partnership to draw a salary, (owner since 2007) Bob Nutting has never received any salary.”

Apart from the financial statements, the AP obtained a check stub of a payment made from a Pirates account to settle a bill with Seven Springs ski resort, which is owned by the Nutting family. The check bore a Pirates logo, which at first look suggests a financial transaction between the two operations, but the team says it came from a sinceclosed joint advertising account.

“I can tell you for certain there has not been a dime that has left the Pirates organization to fund any other business of any of the partners of the Pirates,” Coonelly said.

Titans get win over Cardinals

By Teresa M. Walker The Associated Press

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Lavelle Hawkins (87) hurdles Arizona Cardinals cornerback Marshay Green (30) as Hawkins gains 22 yards in the third quarter of Monday’s game in Nashville, Tenn.

Study shows poor economy cuts into college athletics The Associated Press COLUMBIA, Mo. — Count college sports among the sagging economy’s latest victims.

A newly released NCAA report shows that just 14 of the 120 Football Bowl Subdivision schools made money from campus athletics in the 2009 fiscal year, down from 25 the year before.

Researchers blame the sagging economy and suggested that next year’s numbers could be even worse.

The research was done by accounting professor Dan Fulks of Transylvania University, a Division III school in Lexington, Ky. It shows the median amount paid by the 120 FBS schools to support campus athletics grew in one year from about $8 million to more than $10 million.

The NCAA doesn’t release individual schools’ revenues and expenses. But Fulks confirmed that Alabama, Florida, Ohio State, Texas and Tennessee are among the select group that made money from athletics. So is Missouri, which reported generating $2 million in profits from campus athletics in 2009.

NCAA interim president Jim Isch, who spent 11 years as the association’s chief financial officer, called the latest numbers less a reflection of “runaway spending” in college athletics than a reality of the country’s larger economic crisis.

He noted that most schools typically plan for future expenses several years in advance, which in this case meant fiscal projections that didn’t account for a prolonged recession.

The gap between the haves and the have-nots appears to be growing. The largest reported amount of revenue generated by an athletics program was $138.5 million — nearly three times the median of $45.9 million. The top-spending program reported $127.6 million in annual expenses, with a similarly sized gap from the median.

“The top end ... still does not have to rely on institutional subsidies,” Isch said. “But those that do are falling further behind.”

Sixty-eight FBS schools reported turning a profit on football, with a median value of $8.8 million.

The 52 FBS schools that lost money on football reported median losses of $2.7 million.

The breakdown for basketball programs at those 120 schools was nearly identical, though the median values for profitable programs ($2.9 million) and money-losing ones ($873,000) were smaller.

The fiscal fortunes of major college athletic programs without football teams were even worse.

None of the 97 schools in that category reported making money from athletics, with median losses of more than $2.8 million.

Fulks pointed out that many schools funnel profits from football and men’s basketball — which for the top schools can mean millions in Bowl Championship Series payments and NCAA tournament payments — into lower-profile sports that can’t rely on season ticket plans, TV packages and well-heeled donors.

More teams generally means larger subsidies from the school.

“Football and men’s basketball are the only two sports you any have chance of making money,” he said. “If you start splitting that up between 30 or 40 sports, you start losing money.”

As public universities throughout the country struggle with double-digit tuition increases, employee furloughs, teacher layoffs and enrollment caps, scrutiny of those institutional subsidies for athletics are increasing.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — National championship, regular season or simply an exhibition. The setting doesn’t seem to matter, not when Vince Young is playing Matt Leinart.

Young outdueled Leinart yet again, Chris Johnson ran for a touchdown and Tennessee beat the Arizona Cardinals 24-10 Monday night in the Titans’ preseason home opener.

The Titans (1-1) never trailed as Johnson scored on his sixth carry, an 8-yard TD that capped an 85-yard drive. The All-Pro watched from the bench the rest of the night.

The top two quarterbacks taken in the 2006 draft didn’t play very much in the preseason matchup. At least Leinart didn’t have to watch Young drive his team down the field late for the win like he did in the 2006 BCS national championship or on this very field last Nov. 29 with a 99-yard drive for a 20-17 win.

“He felt excited about playing,” Titans coach Jeff Fisher said of Young.

“He was prepared, focused and made plays with his legs, made plays with his arm and was really good on the line of scrimmage as well.”

Young has no competition for his starting job these days, and he was nine of 13 for 128 yards. The former Texas star left after four series with a 10-0 lead, and he said the offense feels like it’s coming together.

“We’ve got to... keep working,” Young said. “Don’t get happy with ourselves right now because we still have a long ways to go. But I feel the confidence in myself as well as the receivers is very good right now.”

Leinart is trying to hold off Derek Anderson for the starting job in Arizona. Leinart, who starred for Southern California in college, was four of six for 28 yards but produced no points for a second straight preseason game. The Cardinals (1-1) went three-and-out on each of his

three series with the Titans blitzing and showing different looks on defense.

“I’m trying to work to get better,” Leinart said. “Guys are counting on me, and I’m confident that we’re going to get the job done and I’m going to get the job done. And that’s the bottom line.”

Arizona coach Ken Whisenhunt wasn’t happy that the offense couldn’t take advantage of the Titans’ pressure, especially on third-and-1 on Leinart’s final series with a ball down the sideline to rookie Stephen Williams.

“That’s disappointing,” Whisenhunt said. “It is a preseason game where we didn’t prepare against those kind of blitzes, but we’ve seen looks like that from our defense so I expect us to handle it better than we did tonight.”

Young struggled a bit early but completed three of four passes for 67 yards to set up Johnson’s TD run.

On his fourth drive, Young fumbled the ball off his chest while scrambling only to see the ball bounce right back to him as he finished off an 8-yard gain for a first down. Three plays later, Nate Washington got his hands underneath a low throw initially ruled incomplete. Fisher challenged and the replay showed he made the catch.

Young drove the Titans to firstand-goal before they stalled. He tried to scramble up the middle on third down and was sacked by Paris Lenon and Adrian Wilson. Still, Rob Bironas’ 29-yard field goal capped the clock-consuming drive.

Anderson replaced Leinart and gave the Cardinals a brief spark against the Titans’ first-team defense. He completed a 13-yarder to Steve Breaston for Arizona’s first first down of the game. He also found Williams, starting in place of Larry Fitzgerald (sprained knee), on a 37yard pass.

Haynesworth has a long road ahead

By Rick Maese The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — As the Redskins returned to practice and Coach Mike Shanahan and his controversial defensive lineman, Albert Haynesworth, bit their respective tongues, attention focused at least momentarily on the football field Monday.

And there, regardless of which medical condition has ailed Haynesworth or what he thinks about the head coach, “he’s got a ways to go,” said defensive coordinator Jim Haslett.

Midway through the preseason schedule, Haynesworth is still working out with the second-string defensive line and coaches say they can’t predict when he might be ready to join the starters. After missing nearly three full practices last week, Haynesworth participated fully on Monday, lining up at both nose tackle and defensive end.

But even if tensions between Haynesworth and Shanahan somehow cool, the defensive lineman still has plenty of work ahead of him.

“Think about it,” Haslett said.

“We’ve been out here a long time. You add up all the organized team activities... minicamp, and practices here, I’d say it’s over 40 practices, and he’s got six in. He’s got a ways to go.

He needs to practice these next three weeks, practice at a high level and play well. And then we’ll see where he’s at from that standpoint.”

After a tumultuous weekend, when Haynesworth criticized the team for trivializing his illness, followed by news that he was suffering from rhabdomyolysis, a condition marked by the breakdown of skeletal muscle, both sides were careful with their words Monday. Haynesworth declined to answer questions in the locker room, and Shanahan refused to respond to Haynesworth’s Saturday postgame comments or discuss their relationship.

While Shanahan did not discuss Haynesworth’s health woes, he did reveal after practice Monday that he has spoken with the disgruntled defensive lineman.

“I’m not going to go through the communication that I had,” Shanahan told reporters. “I had a conversation with Albert. I don’t discuss that for obvious reasons.

And if you guys want to talk about football, we’ll talk about football. But to keep on talking about things outside of football is completely ridiculous.”

Shanahan wasn’t the only person who pulled Haynesworth to the side on Monday.

Washington Redskins defensive coordinator Jim Haslett, left, walks off the field with defenisve lineman Albert Haynesworth after their NFL football training camp last week in Ashburn, Va.

NFL Following the team’s morning walk-through, linebacker London Fletcher, last year’s defensive captain, met with Haynesworth for several minutes near the back entrance of the building. After their discussion, Fletcher spoke with reporters and said the team is ready to move forward.

“We’re not going to have any issues,” Fletcher said. “Sometimes there’s frustration that takes place on football teams.

Moving forward, I think we’ll be great.”

In the locker room, players have clearly grown tired of discussing the ongoing soap opera, which has been among the league’s biggest preseason stories, dominating headlines and highlight shows.

“At some point, you got to stop going back and forth with it,” linebacker Lorenzo Alexander said. “But I think Albert has been doing a good job until then.

Just a bad judgment call on his part, as far as forcing it out.

“You can’t go back and forth in the media with this type of thing,” he continued. “It’s only going to cause distractions and this is all we’re going to focus on. We’re not going to focus on the game and what happened in the game, what’s going on with the Jets. We talk about Albert and Coach Shanahan going back and forth. Frankly, I’m tired of talking about it.”

Wide receiver Devin Thomas called Redskins Park “drama city” and said: “it’s getting tiresome, always hearing about some Albert problems. But like I said, hopefully things can get solved and all that can stop, just

focus on football.”

That’s what the team’s coaches are trying to do. On Saturday, Haynesworth sat out the first half and entered the game in the third quarter. “He did play 19 to 20 plays and got a little tired at the end, which is typical for somebody that misses a few days of practice, even though he did work out Friday — we got a little running in,” Shanahan said.

“But we felt like we needed to work him some in that nose tackle position, which is kind of like a workout.”

Haynesworth looked well in limited action, tallying his first sack of the preseason. But he also left the game on a thirddown goal-line situation. Shanahan declined to say whether Haynesworth was too winded to participate in the play. But clearly, he still believes Haynesworth has to get in better shape to contribute at a peak level.

“Sometimes I’ve got to practice a guy and get some playing time in a preseason game just to get back in football shape,” Shanahan said. “But people will practice if they’re going to play during the regular season. He needed some reps in there, that’s the only reason we put him in.”

Haynesworth did take some first-team reps with the Redskins’ nickel package last week, but it’s not clear what he’ll be asked to do Friday night when the Redskins visit the New York Jets.

Of course, that could be looking too far ahead. Haynesworth’s relationship with the coach — and his role in the defense — is still a day-to-day process.

“He’s just got to get going.

That’s all,” Haslett said. “It’s time to stop all this and let’s go.”

Driver Sadler still has something left in his tank

By Jenna Fryer The Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Elliott Sadler does a great job shilling for his sponsors, and he’s a natural in front of cameras.

When his days as a NASCAR driver are over, the 13-year veteran probably is headed toward a healthy second career in television.

He just isn’t ready to hang up his helmet yet.

The future is uncertain for one of NASCAR’s most likable drivers. He’s in the midst of his sixth consecutive winless season, and his prospects of landing a solid ride in the Sprint Cup Series are fading with each week.

Richard Petty Motorsports last week said Stanley, which currently sponsors Sadler, would move to Marcos Ambrose’s car when he joins the organization next year, and the team has given no indication it’s planning to bring Sadler back in 2011.

So, when he pulled in last week to Bristol Motor Speedway, where he earned his first career Cup win in 2001, he couldn’t stave off the emotions that come with so much uncertainty.

“I told my wife, ‘This might be the last Bristol night race I ever race in,’ ” he recounted. “That’s hard to swallow.”

It may not be totally over for Sadler, though.

He’s shown new life outside of his Cup car, and has proved throughout the industry that he’s still got something left in his tank when given the right opportunity. It came from Kevin and DeLana Harvick, Elliott Sadler: who offered Sadler some seat Has one toptime in their truck and Nation- 10 finish this wide Series rides. season and Sadler won his first NAS- six in his last CAR race since 2004 when 60 starts. he drove a Kevin Harvick Inc.-owned truck to a win last month at Pocono, and in nine races between the two series, he has five top-10s and 132 laps led.

In Cup, Sadler only has one top-10 this entire season and a grand total of six of them over his last 60 starts.

But it’s not entirely Sadler’s fault. When he jumped from Yates Racing to Ray Evernham Motorsports midway through the 2006 season, he figured he was moving into the best opportunity of his career.

Instead, the team was sold to George Gillett Jr., and what was left of the original organization later merged with Richard Petty Motorsports. As funding dried up, the team tried to push Sadler out before the start of the 2009 season.

Sadler fought to keep his job, but it’s not exactly proven to be worth his while. He’s had six different crew chiefs since 2006 — four of whom had never held the position before — and has slogged along through financial uncertainty that seems to have affected to some degree everyone in the organization except Kasey Kahne.

And Kahne, so eager to move on himself, announced in April a deal to drive for Hendrick Motorsports two years from now. He didn’t even care that there was no plan for what he’d do next season when he decided to leave.

So now Sadler waits to see what’s next, and when he left Bristol this weekend, he had no idea.

“I wish I had an answer,” Sadler said. “A couple of weeks ago I really thought I had something lined up and it kind of slipped away. I was thinking, ‘I’ve got to regroup and try something else.’ What I want to do is be competitive and run up front. I don’t care what the vehicle looks like that I run in.”

And that’s what likely will continue Sadler’s career.

He drove for KHI at Bristol in both the Trucks and Nationwide races. He was in contention for the win in the truck, and finished third after winning the pole and leading 26 laps in Nationwide.

Harvick has been impressed with Sadler’s performance, and turned into one of his biggest supporters.

“I think in the right stuff he can be competitive at whatever level he is in,” Harvick said.

“You don’t just win all the races that he won ... and just forget how to drive, and at some point you are only as good as what you drive.

“I don’t know all the ins and outs of that particular situation (at RPM), but every time he has been in our No. 2 truck, he is in the top-five and competitive every week.”

It’s catching people’s attention, and giving Sadler a confidence that some think is what he’s been lacking in the Cup car.

“I think he’s just been in a bad situation, and sometimes it takes really searching yourself to find out what’s going on,” Evernham said.

“What’s happening is that Kevin Harvick is saying ‘Hey, Elliott Sadler can still drive a race car.’

I’ve always believed he could, and I don’t know why he doesn’t run any better than he does in the Cup stuff.

“Like every athlete, they get in a slump and it takes something to spark them out of it. Maybe this is the spark that brings him out of the slump.”

Sadler would like to put something together with Harvick for 2010, and believes he will drive some for the team, he just doesn’t know to what extent. Either way, the Harvicks have given him a second chance that he’s not taking lightly.

“The coolest thing about racing for Kevin is they believe in me 100 percent,” he said.

“They believe in what I’m telling them, they believe when I get in the car or truck that they have a legitimate shot to run up front, lead laps and win races. To me, that’s a really good feeling.”

Coaches Continued from D1 Reightley adds that now his daily workouts have real purpose.

“I just went out (to ride) willynilly before,” he says. “There was no rhyme or reason to it.”

Coaches can be a valuable resource for beginner cyclists, as well as for intermediate riders who find themselves stuck in a rut and for time-crunched cyclists who want to make the most out of limited hours in the day to ride.

Typically, the more you pay, the more access you get to personal attention from your coach.

Condition Continued from D1 “I just want to know what happened,” Draper said. He was one of just about 19 players who were able to report to fall practice when it opened Monday at the school’s campus, about 40 miles south of Portland. The team has about 45 players in all.

Dr. Craig Winkler, who is one of those treating the athletes, said the results of blood tests are expected today or Wednesday and could determine whether any player took a supplement — like creatine — that could explain what happened. Some supplements can increase enzyme levels in the blood when combined with exercise and dehydration, he said.

sonable and the most difficult to customize.

Your goals, your budget, and even your personality can help determine the right cycling coach, and the right coaching program.

Online programs make it easy to hire a coach who operates outside of Central Oregon. This can be a good option for experienced and self-driven cyclists who don’t require regular feedback and motivation. The advantage of hiring a local coach is that you can meet for rides or training sessions and the coach can offer in-person consultation.

Brig Brandt, a cycling coach who works out of Rebound Sports Performance Lab in Bend, says his clients vary from noncompetitive, recreational riders to elite racers. Some are experienced riders who have reached a plateau and need a new perspective. Others have set a personal goal that they can’t seem to reach on their own. Still others, says Brandt, are time-crunched

Thinking about hiring a cycling coach?

Here are some things to consider: • Inquire about a coach’s riding and racing experience, but keep in mind that the fastest riders do not necessarily make the best coaches. Ideally, choose a coach whose racing or riding background matches your particular pursuits.

• Ask for current references.

• Ask for a clear breakdown of fees and what those fees include. Lessexpensive training programs may offer less interaction with the coach or may be difficult to customize to your personal needs.

• Some coaching plans require a three-month minimum commitment or set-up fees. If you are unsure about your obligation, ask.

• If choosing a local coach, schedule an in-person meeting before committing to a program. Ask about training philosophy and communication style to ensure that the relationship will be a good fit.

• Clearly communicate your goals and the time you expect to have available on a daily, weekly and monthly basis to reach them.

cyclists — those who want to maximize the eight hours a week they have to train.

“For most of my clients, their main limiter is the amount of time they can dedicate to training,” he offers. “(Following a structured training program) is

an effective use of their time.”

As with anything we pay for, Brandt says cyclists are more likely to commit to a structured training program when they have hired a coach. For that same reason, it is probably NOT a good idea to hire a coach if you

shakes, but we don’t know what was in them,” Winkler said Monday.

McMinnville School District Superintendent Maryalice Russell said one parent brought in the label of a protein shake a player had been drinking. Many of the athletes who were not hospitalized submitted to blood tests.

Winkler said it seems unlikely the players organized the use of a substance. “Usually, there’s going to be one kid who’s going to squeal, but we have heard nothing,” the doctor said.

Many players on the team were taking part in the immersion camp, during which players were going to stay overnight while training during the day at the school of about 1,700 students.

But several arrived early on the night of Aug. 15 and took part in an intense drill in the

high school’s wrestling room, where Winkler said the temperature reportedly reached 115. He said the players had access to water at intervals, although they didn’t have water bottles nearby.

“Some of the kids did drink, some didn’t,” he said.

The room was not air conditioned. Members of the coaching staff who were on hand did not say the room was uncomfortably hot, Russell said at a news conference Monday.

McMinnville Police Capt. Dennis Marks said his force hasn’t begun an investigation.

“We haven’t gotten any information from the school or medical officials to give us reason to open one at this point,” he said.

On a monthly or weekly basis, coaches provide daily workouts — typically via e-mail or through an online site. Coaching plans are often available at various price levels. The more one-onone attention you receive, the higher the monthly cost. (At Rebound, coaching programs range from $150 to $300.)

dents knowingly took anything that would cause them harm.”

Russell said she could not draw any conclusions about why so many of the players came down with the condition and required hospitalization until tests results were complete.

Draper said many players were concerned that the team would be tainted by the suggestion that steroids or other performance-enhancing supplements were involved.

However, he expected such adversity would bring the team together.

“The worst has already happened,” Draper said. “It will only get better from here, I think.”

The athletes who were hospitalized will have to get signed permission from their doctors to return to practice. There is a chance the Grizzlies will have to forfeit their season opener.

Kearin has been head coach at Cal State Northridge, which cut football in 2001. Most recently, he coached Loyola High School in Los Angeles to the Southern Section Division I championship before leaving the post in 2009.

Adam Guerra, who worked as an assistant under Kearin at Loyola and took over as Loyola’s interim coach last year, said Kearin “always put his players’ well-being as a top priority.”

“He was never a rule-breaker. I would describe him as a player’s coach. He was not one of those old-school, smash-mouth kind of guys,” Guerra said in a telephone interview from Los Angeles, where he is taking a year off from football.

He said Kearin never encouraged players to use supplements to build strength, believing that good conditioning and good nutrition were enough.

quality (training) session in and strive for balance in your life so you’re a better athlete in the long run.”

Larsen is quick to note that coaching is not just for elite cyclists or racers. He explains that the perfect candidate for coaching is a novice who, like Reightley, is unsure how to structure and organize an effective workout. Larsen, 43, who has been racing at an elite level for some 15 years and who has two young sons, says he feels like a proud father when his riders find success on the bike.

“I get as much satisfaction now out of their results as I do for myself,” he offers. “It’s hard to get someone motivated and to trust you. So to hear them so excited, to know that the second they are done (riding or racing), they’re calling you and they can’t wait to tell you how they did …

“I really get excited by that.”

Scoot Continued from D1 “That’s pretty much where we all got started from was YouTube,� notes Josh Golden, 13, of Bend, who has been scooting for five years. “There’s a huge scene out in Australia — it’s really, really big. There’s tons of crazy kids out there.�

At the Northwest Scoot Championships at the Truck Stop about 50 riders zoomed around the indoor skate park, spinning their scoot decks beneath their feet, front-flipping off ramps and landing back on the scooter and also catching big air. The scooter competition was the fourth of its kind this year at the Truck Stop, which is better known for skateboarding. “I just learned my own tricks at first and then started coming to competitions and found out that it (scooting) was an actual sport,� says Ty Alexander, 14, of Bend, adding that he competes in about three scoot competitions a year around the region. “The first year it started to get really big was probably last summer, not just here but all over the world,� says Golden, who

I B

this year at the Truck Stop has organized three scoot competitions, called Bendub. Golden explains that scooting was gaining popularity in 2005, then waned, but now is back. Local riders estimate that true trickster scoot riders in Central Oregon number about 50 — and they scoot every day.

Scoot competitions are relatively new, but they are growing rampant as the interest in trick-style scoot riding gains momentum. “I think what scooting does is get kids in the skate park earlier,� says Korey Kier, organizer of the Northwest Scoot Championships. “They are able to get in there and ride and do big tricks at a younger age, and it’s really taken off in Europe and Australia. It is the fastest-growing action sport in the world. “What we are trying to do is promote the sport by creating an outlet for the young kids to ride and then pass on.� “I like the way if feels,� notes Golden. “You have way more control than a skateboard, and it’s pretty easy to learn.�

They’re out to rid the world of typos

By Art Carey The Philadelphia Inquirer

Clem Murray / Philadelphia Inquirer

Jeff Deck points to a hairstylist’s sign declaring “It’z A Wrap” on Aug. 16 during a Philadelphia typo hunt with his partner, Benjamin Herson. The two are promoting their book, “The Great Typo Hunt: Two Friends Changing the World, One Correction at a Time.”

THE BULLETIN • TUESDAY, AUGUST 24, 2010

PHILADELPHIA — Jeff Deck and Benjamin Herson, two word nerds and earnest agents of TEAL — the Typo Eradication Advancement League — visited Philadelphia last week, and within 90 minutes Center City was the better for it, orthographically speaking.

On 19th Street, at the Four Seasons Cleaners, they noticed the word “Cleaner’s” uncalledfor apostrophe on the door of the establishment.

With permission from owner Mee Kim, Deck used his fingernail to peel off the superfluous apostrophe, a feat that would have made him beam triumphantly if he were inclined to beam.

A few doors down, a sign in the window of All About Hair advertised “5 hairstylist.” Deck, carrying his trusty Typo Correction Kit (a makeup bag filled with correction fluid, permanent markers, chalk, and Sharpies in various colors), offered to pluralize the word with an “s,” but hairstylist Rita Riccelli declined.

“Somebody told us it was spelled wrong, but I’d rather you come back when the boss is here,” Riccelli said. She promised to bring it to his attention.

On 18th Street, at the Wrap Shack kitchen and bar, among the specials on a chalkboard out front Deck and Herson spotted “chicken caeser.”

“Would you mind if I fixed it?” Deck asked manager Juana Quiroz politely.

With a bemused smile, she consented, and even offered some chalk. Deck carefully changed the last “e” to an “a.”

“Most people are hesitant to do something about typos,” he declared, looking satisfied, “but the world is more malleable than it might seem.”

Deck and Herson were in town Aug. 16 not only searching for typos but also promoting “The Great Typo Hunt: Two Friends Changing the World, One Correction at a Time.” (Crown Publishers, $23.99). It chronicles a 10-week road trip around America in the spring of 2008 during which Deck, Herson and other TEAL disciples attempted to rid America of typos, spellos, “prepostrophes” and other egregious mistakes, inconsistencies, transpositions, solecisms and symptoms of “the creeping menace of carelessness.”

Help with preservation efforts, camp for free

A longtime mystery lover, Paty Jager began reading romances in the early ’90s, and later began writing them. “I started reading romance books, and there were a couple of them where I was like, ‘Wow. I like this. I could do this,’ ” said Jager. The Redmond-area author has published seven romance novels, which includes her latest, “Spirit of the Mountain.”

The Nature Conservancy will hold a painting party Sept. 11-12, at a 1920s homestead and pump house in Post. The painting site is part of the conservancy’s Juniper Hills Preserve.

“I’ve always loved school. I wasn’t going for a degree. I was just taking classes I liked,” she said. “But it’s always been writing classes and art classes.”

She wrote short stories, and after submitting an article on speculation in the late 1980s, became a freelancer for The Redmond Spokesman for two years.

She began writing her mysteries in the late 1980s as well. And then her love of romance began.

Most of her life, “I hadn’t really been a romance reader,” she said. “It had always been mysteries. And then I started reading romance books, and there were a couple of them where I was like, ‘Wow. I like this. I could do this.’ ” She began writing romances in the mid-1990s, and attended her first writing workshop at Fishtrap Inc., a literary retreat at Wallowa Lake, around 1997.

Deschutes County sets shot clinic for students

By David Jasper The Bulletin

n her way to becoming a published romance novelist, Redmond-area author Paty Jager took an indirect path, writing plays, practicing journalism and penning whodunits.

“The first two novels I wrote were actually mysteries, but they didn’t go anywhere,” she says, sitting in a highceilinged living room on her 19-acre ranch where she lives with her husband, Gerrit Jager, with a great view of nearby Smith Rock.

Today, Jager is a 52-year-old wife, mother of four grown children, and has published seven romance novels. At 6:30 p.m. Thursday, she’ll read from her most recent book, the historical, paranormal romance, “Spirit of the Mountain,” at Camalli Book Co. (see “If you go”) in Bend.

Bride fears bridesmaid adds too much color to wedding Dear Abby: I’m a 36-year-old woman who has a 25-year-old friend I love like a little sister. Because of that connection, I felt compelled to ask her to be a bridesmaid in my upcoming wedding.

After she agreed, I overheard her mention that she would be getting a large tattoo on her arm.

Because she knows how I feel about visible tattoos, I asked her if she’d wait six months until after the wedding. She and the matron of honor are scheduled to wear strapless, knee-length gowns.

She proceeded with the tattoo and now has half an arm of full-color design. I don’t want her to ruin my wedding or the photographs. I would feel guilty if I had to force a jacket or sweater on her or my matron of honor, especially if the day is unseasonably hot. What should I do?

— No Ink In Louisville Dear No Ink: If your “little sister” cared as much about your feelings as you seem to about hers, she would have postponed getting the tattoo as you requested. Too bad she didn’t.

However, weddings are more than the procession and the picture album. They are about loving friends and family and the joining of two people who intend to build a life together. If you’re worried about the pictures, pose “Sis” so her “canvas” can’t be seen by the camera.

Dear Abby: Seven years ago, my husband, “John,” had an affair that resulted in the birth of a child. Although it was difficult, John and I stayed together and our marriage is better than ever.

My husband supports “Talia” financially and sees her whenever he can. The adults have all managed to create a cordial, working relationship for Talia’s sake.

Talia spends a few weeks with

DEAR ABBY us during school breaks. When I go out with her and run into acquaintances, they’ll ask, “Who’s this?” I will give her name, but sometimes they press for more.

Many of our friends know we’ve been married for a long time with only one child together.

(Our daughter is in college.)

My question is — is Talia my stepdaughter? Is there a simple way of answering these questions without making anyone uncomfortable, especially Talia?

— Part-time Mommy Dear Part-time Mommy: Yes. Talia is your stepdaughter, and you can introduce her that way or refer to her as John’s daughter.

Either would be correct.

Dear Abby: What is the polite way to correct a child who is being rude in your home while her mother, who is present, does absolutely nothing?

— Disciplinarian In Tracy, Calif.

Dear Disciplinarian: Here’s how I’d handle it. I would get down to the child’s eye level and say: “Honey, I have certain rules in my house. When you’re here, I expect you to ( ). Do you understand?”

You cannot expect a child who may not have been taught basic manners by his (or her) mother to know what you expect unless you spell it out sweetly and firmly. And if the bad behavior persists, I would socialize with the child’s mother only one-on-one.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby .com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Pat C. discovered “Arrested Development” last week.

“Watched the first nine episodes,” she e-mailed. “Funny!”

Gone from network TV since February 2006, when Fox burned off the last four episodes against the opening ceremonies of the Winter Olympics, “Arrested Development” is still finding new fans, proving just how groundbreaking it was then and how absurdly funny it remains today.

The comedy about the deeply and hilariously dysfunctional Bluth family also continues to make news, the latest tidbit being that creator Mitchell Hurwitz is halfway through a script for an “Arrested Development” movie, for which the entire cast has agreed to return.

DVD (or on-demand video) is actually the perfect format with which to discover “Arrested Development.” And with the movie looking as if it will actually happen, this is a great time to do that. Here’s a primer.

Michael Bluth The responsible second son of the family, a widowed single father, reluctantly stepped in to hold the clan together after patriarch George Sr. went to prison for securities fraud.

Played by Jason Bateman, who’s been busy in movies: “The Switch,” “Couples Retreat,” “Up in the Air” and “Juno.”

Played by Portia de Rossi, who starred in the unfortunately short-lived comedy “Better Off Ted” and recurred on “Nip/Tuck.”

Before “AD,” she played Nell on “Ally McBeal” (1998-2002).

son was, like his dad, an island of sanity among the crazy Bluths.

Played by Michael Cera, the breakout star of the cast. Cera, 22, plays the title character in “Scott Pilgrim vs. the World” and starred in “Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist” and “Juno.”

George Oscar Bluth

Buster Bluth

Known as GOB (pronounced like the Bible’s Job), he’s the Segway-riding magician and ladies man who failed as president of Bluth Corp.

Played by Will Arnett, who stars with Keri Russell in Hurwitz’s new comedy, “Running Wilde,” this fall on Fox. Arnett also played Alec Baldwin’s rival, Devon Banks, on “30 Rock” and has voiced animated characters in movies including “Despicable Me.”

A mama’s boy, he rebounded after his hand was bitten off by seal.

Played by Tony Hale, who had the recurring role of Emmett Milbarge on “Chuck” and co-starred with Andy Richter on “Andy Barker, P.I.” Before “AD,” Hale had guested on TV series as diverse as “Dawson’s Creek,” “Sex and the City” and “The Sopranos.”

‘Hot in Cleveland’ cast smells horses on Malick WASHINGTON — When the cast of “Hot in Cleveland” smells horses, they know Wendie Malick has arrived.

Malick owns two quarter horses, Mikey Rose and Cassidy. She mucks their stalls and Wendie feeds them be- Malick fore going to work. She says her co-stars often tell her they notice the smell when she arrives.

Malick helped deliver Cassidy nine years ago. She slept in the hayloft of the barn for several nights until Mikey Rose’s water broke. She says she ran downstairs and found a perfect little foal.

She bonded with the foal and named it Cassidy after the fictional cowboy Hopalong Cassidy.

Malick co-stars in the TV Land comedy “Hot in Cleveland” with Betty White, Valerie Bertinelli and Jane Leeves.

Newton worries about future of young stars WASHINGTON — Wayne Newton is worried that fame is coming too easily to today’s young stars.

In a recent interview in Washington, Newton says it’s pretty frightening to think that one day someone can be totally unheard of and the next they could be on the lips of practically everybody in the world. He says that what they don’t realize is that fame goes as quickly as it comes.

He says young stars like Justin Bieber and Miley Cyrus don’t have time to hone their craft.

Newton says stars need to time to learn that every decision they make will either hamper or endear them for the rest of their life.

He says that he’s concerned because when the industry is finished with a star, it just looks for the next one.

LOS ANGELES — Grammywinning singer Faith Evans has been arrested after being stopped at a drunken driving checkpoint in the Los Angeles area.

Officer Cleon Joseph of the LAPD says Faith Evans the 37-yearold Evans was arrested Saturday night near Marina del Rey on suspicion of misdemeanor drunken driving.

He says Evans was held for a few hours and released on bail Sunday morning. Her car was impounded.

The R&B singer is the widow of rapper Christopher Wallace, also known as the Notorious B.I.G. She won a Grammy in 1998 for the song “I’ll Be Missing You.” A reality series chronicling Evans’ life is reportedly in production, and a new album is scheduled for release in October.

‘True Blood’ stars tie the knot LOS ANGELES — “True Blood” co-stars Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer have taken their true love to the altar.

The couple’s publicists said in a statement the 28-year-old Paquin and 40-year-old Moyer were married Saturday night at a ceremony in Malibu, Calif., “surrounded by their family and friends.”

On the hit HBO series, Paquin stars as Sookie Stackhouse, a Southern waitress who falls for vampire Bill Compton, played by Moyer. Compton is a Confederate veteran who was turned into a bloodsucker in the Civil War era.

Leno raises $100,000 for Gulf Coast recovery BILOXI, Miss.

— Jay Leno brought comedy and cash to the Mississippi Gulf Coast to help the area recover from the BP oil spill.

More than 1,000 people Jay Leno watched Leno perform Saturday night at the Beau Rivage Resort and Casino in Biloxi to raise money for the Gulf Coast Community Foundation. Tickets were $40 to $150.

At the end of the show, Leno presented an oversized check for $90,336 to foundation president Rich Westfall. Leno chipped in some of his own money, topping off the evening’s fundraising total at about $100,000.

Blagojevich appears at Chicago Comic Con ROSEMONT, Ill. — Former Ill. Gov. Rod Blagojevich compared himself to a superhero as he stood alongside folks dressed as Superman and Batman at the Chicago Comic Con. Blagojevich said Saturday at the show in suburban Chicago that he draws inspiration from the superheroes as he faces his own battles.

He charged $80 for each photo taken with him and $50 for autographs.

Some fans said Blagojevich earned the money and that he needs it because he isn’t working.

While touring the floor, Blagojevich picked up a red “Batphone” and joked that he was calling his lawyer.

A federal jury last week convicted Blagojevich of lying to the FBI but deadlocked on 23 other charges. Prosecutors plan to retry him.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, Aug. 24, 2010 This year, you manage to clear out problems with ease. Partners, associates, family and friends could challenge your ideas often. You are being asked to question your fundamentals and perhaps certain key goals. Transform your life with the help of others’ feedback. Your popularity soars if you are single.

You could tumble into a very intense relationship. The intensity could be real and long term, but give yourself a year before making a judgment call. If you are attached, your relationship will have the quality of new lovers. Enjoy. PISCES often presents a different point of view.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHH You might have your hands full as you strive to clear out work. Others suddenly become vocal and emotional, perhaps drawing the same reaction back. Take a walk before you react. Tonight: Understanding evolves to a new level.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH You juggle many different vices and controversial opinions. Detachment allows you to pull out what appears to be important. An easy, steady pace always proves to be an asset.

Meetings add zest to a situation.

Tonight: Where your friends are.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH Listen to feedback. Demands, requests and extremes mark your

day. Knowing where to put your energy might be critical. A partner gives you powerful insight. Tonight: You cannot get out of the limelight!

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Creativity could be the outcome of different interests and hectic communication. A partner helps you gain insight into what seems difficult to grasp. News easily could be mixed with opinions, not facts. Tonight: Let your mind detach, then take another look at events.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH Gain insight and handle a personal matter directly. Your sense of direction could be tossed into limbo by a financial slip. Use this situation to tighten up your budget.

Reorganize plans if need be. Tonight: Touch base with a friend who always gives you a new perspective.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Suddenly, you could have your hands full dealing with friends, associates and loved ones. Juggling the pros and cons of a situation could force you to work overtime.

Forget staying on schedule. You will be absorbing numerous extra issues during your day. Tonight: A creative idea provides relaxation.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH Get into a project. Distractions surround whatever you do. Your mind could be working overtime as you attempt to digest what is going on.

Stay focused, taking on one item at a time. Be sensitive to a family member who needs feedback. Tonight: Go off and enjoy a favorite sport.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH You might be juggling people and events, as are many

people today. You have the ability to integrate what you are hearing.

You turn a situation into a plus, while others really don’t know what to do. Tonight: Let your innate people skills emerge.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Pressure builds as you juggle different concerns. As mentally quick and flexible as you can be, your plate is still full. Realize others also are dealing with the same energy. Use your assets to make it easier. Tonight: Happily head home to cocoon.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Keep information to yourself, especially if confusion surrounds you. Once you process and get a firm handle on a certain prevalent situation, you will be able to move forward. Others follow your lead.

Tonight: Swap war stories with pals who also might be overwhelmed.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH An innate conflict lies between your perspective and that of others. You might want to rethink a situation and decide if another way could be better. If you can extract yourself from a problem, all the better. You don’t need to be in the middle of a hot issue! Tonight: Treat yourself on the way home.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH The Full Moon points to you being pivotal. You might not be able to do as much as you would like. Understanding grows as you listen to others, who certainly don’t see eye to eye with you. Be a hero, and find an acceptable solution for everyone involved. Tonight: Whatever makes you smile. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Where Princess Leia meets her Han Solo Speed-dating at Star Wars convention

By Alexandra Petri The Washington Post

ORLANDO, Fla. — Deciding not to wear my inflatable Jabba the Hutt suit was tough. But, I reasoned, I wanted guys to like me for my personality, not just my appearance.

So a week ago, I donned a skirt and “Star Wars” T-shirt and stepped into line with 54 other women at the entrance to a conference room on the third level of the Orange County Convention Center. We were among more than 250 fans of the sci-fi saga who showed up to participate in the first-ever bout of speed-dating at a “Star Wars” convention.

“Star Wars.” Speed-dating.

Together, they could rule the galaxy. It would be like the Death Star: too big to fail.

Originally scheduled for Aug. 12-15, Star Wars Celebration V, the dating event was expanded to another day because of popular demand.

Getting to this room required walking past legions of stormtroopers, dodging roving droids and passing several competing Han Solo-Chewbacca pairs who were trying to avoid being photographed together, like girls wearing the same dress to prom.

The event was hosted by a plump, costumed Anakin Skywalker who went by Giganakin.

His real name is Ryan Glitch, 23, of Gorham, N.Y. He had hosted a similar event before at a convention called Dragoncon, but the speed-dating had been unsuccessful, which Glitch attributed to the crowd being too heterogeneous. Darth Vaders wound up across the table from Capt. Jack Sparrows.

“If you don’t like ‘Pirates of the Caribbean,’ your date is over,” Glitch explained.

Even here, someone had created a minor disturbance by showing up in a “Star Trek” uniform.

Rules of geekdom have long specified that coming to a “Star Wars” convention dressed as Capt. Kirk or Jean-Luc Picard is the equivalent of showing up at a Marine Corps barbecue dressed as Osama bin Laden (except there are international laws that would restrain the Marines in such cases).

The ages of the speed-dating participants at Celebration V ranged from 18 to 54, but most appeared to be in their mid-20s.

The women were, by and large, attractive; most wore street clothes. Of the men, no more than three were openly carrying light sabers, and in general, they looked less like Jabba the Hutt and more like Luke Skywalker than might have been expected.

“The women who show up are looking for someone to make a connection with,” Glitch said.

“Most of the guys are just like, ‘I get to talk to a girl! Fabulous!’ ” This year marks the 30th anniversary of “The Empire Strikes Back,” the second “Star Wars” film, and the first in which a love story features prominently.

For many who showed up at the convention to celebrate it, this seemed to be a key part of its appeal; couples wandered the convention floor sporting paired Tshirts with Han and Leia saying, “I love you” and “I know.”

Using the Force At the start of the speed-dating session, a Darth Vader appeared and volunteered to stand in the back as “eye candy.” In any other context, a man breathing heavily in the back of a speed-dating event would have been politely asked to leave. But we ladies were elated. “I want to speeddate Darth!” someone shouted.

Interactions would last three minutes. No names. No places of residence. No personally identifying information. Usually the conversation came easily. We compared prior conventions. Of course we mainly talked “Star Wars” — our favorites among all the movies, objections to the prequels — complimented each

other on our costumes and admitted we’d never been speed-dating before.

In any other context, you could never roll up your sleeve to show off your Boba Fett tattoo to score points. But here, nights spent camping outside theaters to await the opening of “The Phantom Menace” ceased to be deal-breakers and became common touchstones. Then the bell rang, and the men moved on.

Everyone went by number.

At the end of the event, you could write down your contact information (e-mail or phone number) next to people’s numbers as the Force directed you, then wait to see if any prospective date wanted to reach you.

As someone with limited short-term memory and no speed-dating experience, I found that all the numbers blurred together. Was 44 the one who had said that his favorite parts of “Star Wars” were “the aliens and the explosions” and then fell abruptly silent? Or was that 16?

Stop flying Solo Not everyone found the droids they were looking for. Still, I left the event with a sheet loaded with contact info.

Although the odds for a woman trying to meet men at a “Star Wars” convention might seem exceptional, some still had difficulty.

“Women are picky,” Glitch said. Men, on the other hand, favor the “shotgun method,” distributing their contact information indiscriminately to anyone and everyone.

(Although some biological imperative might have been at work here, too.) A bikinisporting Slave Leia was deluged with contact information. The more conservatively dressed women around her didn’t fare as well.

Few, however, departed entirely empty-handed. And except for one incident after an earlier session, when a man reportedly lurked in wait outside the room for the woman of his choice and raised security concerns, things went smoothly.

Some hit it off right away.

Glitch reported that two couples from dating sessions earlier in the weekend had already pledged themselves in the Star Wars Commitment Chapel. Located downstairs on the main showroom floor, the chapel consisted of a white trellis festooned with pink and white lights. When I visited it, a couple stood before an Obi-Wan Kenobi impersonator who was cramming as many “Star Wars” references as he could into a semblance of wedding vows. (“Remember, in relationships, size matters not.” “But fear not, I sense much love in you.”)

It was like a slightly more tasteful Elvis chapel, but without the legally binding effect.

It even consecrated interspecies relationships. On one of the convention days, a woman committed to her R2 unit.

For many fan couples, the people who order wedding cakes shaped like deceased tauntauns or name their children Luke and Leia, “Star Wars” serves as a common bond. But so far, I haven’t mustered the nerve to contact any of the Jedi or Sith lords whose contact info I received.

The Force may have been strong with the host. Glitch, who is single, reported that several female participants had offered him their contact information. Maybe next time he’ll wind up at the Commitment Chapel himself.

Until then, if you’d just as soon kiss a Wookiee, he can arrange it.

Typo hunt Continued from E1 Part classic road-trip narrative, buddy-love saga and stateof-the-nation survey, it’s also an adventure thriller for grammar fiends, travel porn for copy editors and other enforcers of linguistic propriety.

“I wanted to make some positive difference in the world,” says Deck, explaining his motivation for the trip. “How could I do that?

What is my special skill? And the answer I came up with is, I could spot typos wherever I roamed. I’ve noticed them all my literate life.”

Deck, 30, of Portsmouth, N.H., recruited Herson, also 30, of Beaverton. They had met years earlier in a creative-writing class at Dartmouth College and later roomed together when they worked in Washington, D.C.

The issue at large “When Jeff called and talked about a road trip, I didn’t totally process the typo part,” Herson recalls. “Then he started his blog entries and I realized he was serious — he really was hunting typos every day. At first, I was glad I could find and correct them as well, but it was the stuff underneath the typos that got me curious.”

To wit: Why are so many Americans prone to misspelling, so ignorant of basic rules of grammar and punctuation?

Examples were plentiful. The duo began their trip in New England and journeyed south, before heading west, then up the West Coast and across the upper Midwest back to New England.

On their first tour, they skipped Philadelphia but did stop in Lansdowne, where they saw, and corrected, signs in a supermarket offering “beefstake” tomatoes and “pomegranite” juice.

They fixed “bread puding” in Rockville, Md., “souveneir mugs” in Las Vegas, and “dillettante chocolate” in Seattle.

Near Flagstaff, Ariz., they spot-

Jager Continued from E1 “Sitting around this table with this New York editor, all these people started reading their pages,” she said. “They were all literary people, they were all these esoteric (stories).

And then I start reading mine, which is a romance, and they all looked at me like, ‘Gosh, what is this?’ ” The editor stopped her to tell her about Romance Writers of America, a national organization for writers like her. “That’s when I realized I didn’t know what I was doing,” she said.

She set out to learn, joining the romance writers’ group in 1998 and attending romance-writing conferences and workshops.

She also joined the Salem chapter of the organization, making monthly drives to the Willamette Valley for meetings. And she began entering contests.

“My first five romances I wrote, I sent to all of these different contests, and every one of them finaled,” she said. “That kept me going, even though I hadn’t really gotten a publisher or anything yet.”

She actually wrote her new book, “Spirit of the Mountain,” about a band of Wallowa-based Nez Perce Indians, five years ago.

Back then, everyone she submitted it to — including agents and

Jeff Deck, 30, holds the door for Benjamin Herson, 30, as they enter a dry cleaning establishment on 19th Street in Philadelphia to ask if they can remove the erroneous apostrophe in the name. The word nerds are earnest agents of TEAL —Typo Eradication Advancement League. ted a billboard urging “BRING YOUR CAMERA’S.” That was enough to impel them to exit the highway and turn around. After vaulting a barbed-wire fence and weaving between sagebrush and cactus, they reached the offending billboard, where Deck chalked out the apostrophe — “bigger than my hand,” Herson says.

Encountering resistance On the Canadian side of Niagara Falls, as the TEALsters were whiting out the extraneous apostrophe in “palm reading’s” (“probably the most common type of mistake,” Herson says), two thugs approached and warned, “Walk away now or you won’t be able to walk again.”

“That’s the only time we were physically threatened,” Deck says. “Maybe they were part of some apostrophe-preserving gang.”

In Galveston, Texas, they encountered evidence of another phenomenon — “a sign that used to be correct but that someone had changed to make incorrect, usually in a profane way.” In this

publishers — told her the same thing: “Native American stories don’t sell.”

She’d mapped out a trilogy based on that initial book, but with no publisher, she went to work on her historical romances.

A critique partner then told her about Wild Rose Press, publisher of electronic and print-ondemand romances. She submitted the manuscript of a historical Western romance, “Marshall in Petticoats,” and it was chosen for publication. It was released in 2006, and more books about the fictional Halsey Brothers followed: “Outlaw in Petticoats,” “Miner in Petticoats” and so forth.

Eventually, Jager decided to revisit “Spirit of the Mountain,” sending it to the editor of her “Petticoats” books at Wild Rose.

“She goes, ‘Yeah, it’s a good book, but you’ve got to send it to the paranormal line,’ ” recalled Jager, who wasn’t sure at the time she wanted to get pegged as a paranormal author.

“That’s just not me. It (didn’t) feel paranormal to me,” she explains. When she eventually relented, it was, of course, selected for publication by Wild Rose Press.

Jager feels optimistic about its chances of success. “Anytime I talk about this book, and about it being Native American, people are excited,” she said.

She’ll publish her eighth

instance, someone had erased the initial “C” in Canal City.

The frequency of the phenomenon led the duo to posit the existence of FLAME — Fiendish League for Advancing Mistakes in English.

On the south rim of the Grand Canyon, they fixed two errors on an ordinary-seeming sign about artwork on a faux American Indian watchtower. The Park Service, which regarded the sign as historic, was not amused. The TEALsters were later summoned to court, charged with defacing federal property, and ordered to pay $3,000 in restitution. They were also banned from national parks for a year.

The experience ended the practice of “stealth corrections” and “covert alterations” and led to the formulation of the “Third Rule of Typo Hunting” (Don’t Be a Jerk) and such corollaries as Always Ask Permission and Be Courteous and Deferential.

All told, the TEALsters found 437 mistakes during their Great Typo Hunt and corrected 236.

“It’s a universal truth that everyone makes mistakes,” Deck says, “and there are mistakes everywhere you go in the Unit-

ed States.” No region was more mistake-prone than others, but neighborhoods with more independent businesses were “more likely to need typo-eradication assistance.”

One of the big surprises: “the richness of the conversations” provoked by TEAL’s mission.

“Everyone seemed to have a typo story,” Deck says. “A simple conversation about a misplaced apostrophe could open up whole other vistas of topics about the way people communicate, and relate to each other in the workplace.”

Tolerant of slang, lenient toward non-native users of English, determined to amend the error rather than shame the perpetrator, they tried to steer a middle course between the “grammar hawks” and “grammar hippies,” the prescriptivists and descriptivists. Telling patterns in spelling mistakes, particularly “double-letter issues” (“dinning” instead of “dining,” “shiping” instead of “shipping”), have convinced them of the virtue of phonics-based reading instruction.

The guerrilla grammarians of TEAL hope to inspire others to follow their lead.

book in January. Titled “Bridled Heart,” it’s a contemporary romance, her second in that genre.

In 2008, her first, “Perfectly Good Nanny,” won an Eppie Award, a prize for electronic books.

The Jagers have put their family ranch northeast of Redmond up for sale, and have plans to build a new home at their newer 240-acre property in Princeton, about 40 miles southeast of Burns. Every other week, she travels in order to water its 40 farmable acres.

“It takes me about an hourand-a-half in the morning and an hour-and-a-half at night to do (the watering), so the rest of the day I can write. Our cell phones have been working there about

two years. My Internet just started working three weeks ago.”

Before that, she had to drive toward town.

“I grew up in a rural area, and this is so populated here,” said Jager, who has so far set all of her books in Oregon.

Asked if she’s found a formula to writing romance novels, she replied, “The only formula in a romance is you have to have the hero and heroine together most of the book.” Further, “You’ve got to have the conflict. You’ve got to have the attraction. You’ve got to have a happy ever after.”
