The USGS considers Newberry Volcano, south of Bend, a “very high threat” due to its eruptions over the years and proximity to Bend. The most recent eruption, 1,300 years ago, created the Big Obsidian Flow, while a series of eruptions about 7,000 years ago created Lava Butte, Mokst Butte, the Lava Cast Forest and other volcanic features now within the Newberry National Volcanic Monument. The USGS is planning to install eight new monitoring stations around Newberry Volcano next summer, to measure movements in the Earth so that geologists can have advance warning if the volcano starts to becomes active.

Voter turnout in Central Oregon is on target to match or exceed recent nonpresidential election years, assuming past trends hold up.

Oregon’s voter turnout has historically ranked in the top tier among all states, and since the state moved to an allvote-by-mail system in 2000, it’s been possible to measure turnout on a day-by-day basis over the two weeks or so between when ballots are sent out and Election Day. Clerks in Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties said ballot returns typically follow a similar pattern during every election, with a steady stream of ballots coming in during the first week, a slight leveling off during the second week and a spike during the final four days before Election Day.

The great waves of plague that twice devastated Europe and changed the course of history had their origins in China, as did a third outbreak that struck less harmfully in the 19th century, a team of medical geneticists reported Sunday.

And in separate research, a team of biologists says it has established that the agent that caused the most deadly plague, the Black Death, was the bacterium known as Yersinia pestis. It has been the favored cause, but a minority of biologists and historians have vigorously argued that the Black Death differed from modern cases of plague studied in India and therefore must have had a different cause.

QUESTIONABLE MARKET

Debt buyers, signature mills, shaky paperwork – it’s not just foreclosures

By David Segal New York Times News Service

When Michael Gazzarato took a job that required him to sign hundreds of affidavits in a single day, he had one demand for his employer: a much better pen.

“They tried to get me to do it with a Bic, and I wasn’t going — I wasn’t having it,” he said. “It was bad when I had to use the plastic Papermate-type pen. It was a nightmare.”

The complaint could have

come from any of the autograph marathoners in the recent mortgage foreclosure mess. But Gazzarato was speaking at a deposition in a 2007 lawsuit against Asset Acceptance, a company that buys consumer debts and then tries to collect.

His job was to sign affidavits, swearing that he had personally reviewed and verified the records of debtors — a time-consuming task when done correctly.

Sound familiar?

Banks have been under siege in recent weeks for widespread corner-cutting in the rush to process delinquent mortgages.

The accusations have stirred outrage and set off investigations across the country.

Lawyers who defend consumers in debt-collection cases say the banks did not invent the headless, assembly line approach. Debt buyers, they say, have been doing it for years.

What next for Twitter?

The website – no longer likened to ice cream – and co-founder Evan Williams are on the cusp of something, but what, exactly?

D.C. online voting test calls it into question

By Sean Greene McClatchy-Tribune News Service

By Claire Cain Miller New York Times News Service

SAN FRANCISCO — At the annual South by Southwest gathering of techies in Austin, Texas, in March, conference organizers had chosen a hangar-size room to accommodate their star speaker: Evan Williams, the co-founder of Twitter, the messaging and social networking site that had become a digital phenomenon.

In a private moment before the doors opened, Williams, who is famously deliberate and cautious, snapped a photograph of the endless rows of chairs facing the stage and posted it on Twitter.

“Gulp,” he wrote.

Later, as Williams talked with the interviewer about building a 21st-century business, keeping to Twitter’s foundational principle (the Google-like “be a force for good”) and fostering corporate experimentation, members of his audience started groaning — and leaving, one by one.

“They wanted Ev Williams; they got Ev Williams,” a Twitter staff member said later.

It is no small irony, of course, that a man so ill at ease on the big stage is a pivotal force in a communications revolution, one that has made it easier for people to chat, disseminate information, and mobilize locally and globally with almost anyone who has a cell phone or an Internet connection.

And Twitter has become one of the rare but fabled Web companies with a growth rate that resembles the shape of a hockey stick. It has 175 million registered users, up from 503,000 three years ago and 58 million just last year. It is adding about 370,000 new users a day.

It has helped transform the way that news is gathered and distributed, reshaped how public figures from celebrities to political leaders communicate, and played a role in popular protests in Iran, China and Moldova. It has become so muscular and ubiquitous that it now competes with the likes of Google and Facebook for users — and is beginning to compete with them for advertising dollars.

Yet, for all its astonishing growth, Twitter has succeeded in spite of itself — the enviable product of a great idea and lightningin-a-bottle viral success rather than a disciplined approach to how it’s managed.

Because of that, Twitter is on the cusp of becoming the next big independent Internet company — or the next startup to be swallowed whole by a giant like Google, or, possibly, the next startup to run out of steam.

Now the company is trying to instill some of the rigor and sense of purpose it needs to ensure that it is, indeed, the next big thing.

“The thing I’ve learned that’s much different than any other time in my life is I have a team that is really, really great,” says Williams, 38. “I’ve been studying this stuff for a really long time, and I’ve screwed up in many, many, many ways in terms of managing people and product decisions and business, so I feel fairly confident at this point that it could scale pretty well.”

Last month, he unexpectedly announced that he had decided to step down as chief executive and give the job to Dick Costolo, who had been Twitter’s chief operating officer.

Williams, who remains on the company’s board, now focuses on product strategy. He made the decision after conceiving and spending months working on the recent redesign of the Twitter website.

People who have worked with him say he excels at understanding what Internet users want and contemplating Twitter’s future, but isn’t a detail-oriented task manager.

“He takes these things that everyone thinks are as big as they can get, these geeky things, and he makes them mainstream,” says Philip Kaplan, a co-founder of the

Twitter co-founder Evan Williams analyzes the recently redesigned Twitter site last month at company headquarters in San Francisco. Williams stepped down as chief executive to focus on product strategy.

Political pulse, taken via social media When a Rasmussen poll this month showed Rep. Roy Blunt opening a double-digit lead over Robin Carnahan in their Senate campaign in Missouri, John Hancock was not surprised.

Hancock, a political consultant advising the Blunt campaign, had seen a similar shift in public opinion days earlier, through a software tool that analyzed the language being used in conversations about the campaign on social networking sites, blogs and other online conversations.

He said this technique, known as sentiment analysis, would soon be a part of every campaign he works on, because it helps him quickly determine which messages are resonating with potential voters.

“You get a real sense of who’s carrying the day,” he said. “It affects the advice you’re able to give.”

Online organizing techreview site Blippy and one of Williams’ close friends.

Costolo, meanwhile, is all about the details of making money and getting things done. This has been his third time running a company; he sold his last one, the Web subscription service FeedBurner, to Google in 2007.

For his part, Williams may embody a classic Silicon Valley type — the inspired, talented startup guy with good ideas, but not the one to execute a sophisticated business strategy once things get rolling, says Steve Blank, an entrepreneurship teacher at Stanford.

And Williams may have also earned the self-awareness and confidence to recognize exactly who he is.

“Evan Williams is the type of entrepreneur who knows when to pivot,” says Blank, “and what we may be seeing is wonderful signs of entrepreneurial wisdom.”

Origin Twitter was born in 2006 as a side project.

At the time, it was an appendage of a podcasting service named Odeo, another company that Williams co-founded that had millions of dollars from investors.

Even the founders, though, were having a hard time getting excited about Odeo, and Williams told everyone who worked there to hatch new ideas. While sitting on a children’s slide at a park eating Mexican food one day, an engineer, Jack Dorsey, suggested to colleagues a simple way to send status updates by using text messages.

Dorsey and Twitter’s third co-founder, Biz Stone, built a prototype in two weeks. During that time, Stone was ripping up the carpet at his Berkeley home when his cell phone vibrated in his pocket. It was Williams sending a message on Twitter: “Sipping pinot noir after a massage in Napa Valley.”

Twitter was a unique entrant on the social media scene. People could follow others without being followed back, and all posts were public by default — and limited to 140 characters so they could fit inside cell phone text messages.

The founders likened Twitter to ice cream: not that useful, but “a

niques have been rapidly adopted by the political world, and they played an important role in President Barack Obama’s victory in 2008. Now, campaigns and the news media are becoming convinced that the Internet can also be mined systematically for useful data about public opinion.

Businesses were quick to embrace sentiment analysis to monitor the performance of their brands. The programs scrape online messages for mention of certain products, then determine whether the language is positive or negative.

While political hands say there is interest in adapting these techniques to campaigns, the pace is more cautious. The analytical rigor can vary widely, they say, and there is uncertainty about how to use these tools. But Hancock and others say that such techniques could become common by 2012.

fun thing for family and friends when they are not in the same place,” Williams says.

That is a far cry from his vision today, an about-face that is typical of Twitter’s evolution. For a long time, Twitter’s founders talked about it with awe, as if it had a life of its own and they were mere bystanders. They freely acknowledged that they had no idea how people would use it or how it would make money.

But they thought it had potential, and in 2007 they spun it off as a separate company from Odeo, with Dorsey serving as Twitter’s first chief executive, Stone as creative director and Williams as chairman.

Conflict By the end of 2008, Twitter’s growth was exploding — and things inside the company were beginning to break down. Williams suggested to Twitter’s board that it push Dorsey out. With the exception of Dorsey, the board unanimously agreed, according to several people involved in the discussions. Williams had run three companies, directors reasoned, so they figured that he would do a better job.

Upon Williams’ ascent, Dorsey became Twitter’s chairman. Although that move was potentially fraught with problems, the board wanted to ensure that Dorsey remained close to the company because he still owned a large stake in Twitter, and he had originally come up with the idea for it, according to two board members.

The change shocked employees and further frayed relations between Dorsey and Williams.

Dorsey declined to comment for this article, but people close to him say he felt betrayed by Williams.

Directors say Twitter’s board meetings are amicable, and in the last couple of weeks, Dorsey has been spotted around the offices more and has taken on a greater role in long-term strategy. Even with Williams as CEO, Twitter was growing faster than he or anyone else at the company could handle. In 2009, Twitter ballooned to 71.3 million registered users from 5 million. The website crashed often, and the “fail whale” — an image of a whale

that appears on the site whenever Twitter falters — became the butt of jokes.

Twitter was fielding dozens of calls a week from big companies, celebrities and politicians. Among the callers were CNN, “The Oprah Winfrey Show” and the State Department, which asked Twitter to delay maintenance so that Iranians protesting an election in 2009 could continue using the service.

“We were just hanging on by our fingernails to a rocket ship,” Williams recalls.

Williams and his colleagues no longer liken Twitter to ice cream.

They now describe it as an information network, not a social tool, and see it as an essential way for people to communicate and get information in real time.

Yet even though Twitter’s executives say their heads are finally above water, Williams still describes the company as “a 6-foottall sixth-grader — there’s a lack of maturity, despite size and the perception of outsiders.”

The cumbersome details of running Twitter now fall to Costolo.

He says his biggest challenge is ensuring that in other countries, like Japan, South Korea and Brazil, where Twitter is growing by leaps and bounds, the company avoids the managerial mistakes it made in the United States.

That means marketing Twitter as an information network, not a social one, from the get-go; buying enough computing power; and hiring people to sell ads in those countries. Twitter also has to prove that it can build an advertising business in the United States.

The company, meanwhile, is trying to avoid the bureaucracy that plagues larger businesses.

The topic is important to Williams, who says he started companies because he didn’t believe in aligning himself with institutions.

Speaking to a group of new hires at an orientation session last spring, Williams said Twitter had three goals: to change the world, to build a business and to have fun.

“You can succeed by only building a business, and many companies do,” he said. “We won’t consider it success unless it’s all three.”

WASHINGTON — For the upcoming election, Washington, D.C., was preparing to allow some voters to send their ballots in over the Internet.

It’s a good thing election officials tested the system first.

Just two days after the District of Columbia Board of Elections and Ethics opened the application for the public to experiment with this fall, the system was hacked. Unbeknownst to D.C. officials, a team of computer scientists from the University of Michigan took control of the website and changed the code to make it play the school’s fight song.

The fight song gag was the part of the hacking that elections officials discovered themselves. More troubling is what they didn’t notice.

That was revealed at a recent D.C. Council committee hearing, where J. Alex Halderman, a University of Michigan professor who led the hacking effort in order to demonstrate the system’s security flaws, testified that his team had in fact wrested complete control over the elections board’s server. Halderman produced 937 pages of names, addresses and personal identification numbers of test voters who had signed up to try out the system. Had it been a real election, Halderman said, he could have changed the votes on ballots or revealed voters’ supposedly secret choices on the Internet. Additionally, Halderman’s crew wasn’t the only one rooting around in the D.C. system. They noticed other attacks occurring, originating in China and Iran.

In response, the elections board decided to shelve the idea of having voters submit ballots online.

While the D.C. episode was a setback for voting over the Internet, elections experts disagree on what it means for the future. Some say the District’s experience demonstrates what computer scientists have been saying for years — that the Internet in its current state cannot allow for secure online voting. Others, including D.C.’s top elections official, still see potential in online voting. In fact, the state of Arizona and eight counties in West Virginia aren’t giving up plans to go ahead with their own online voting experiments on Election Day.

T S Time short, parties make final cases

By Jeff Zeleny New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — Republicans made their closing argument Sunday for capturing control of Congress, assailing President Barack Obama as a champion of wasteful and excessive government, as Democrats countered that returning power to Republicans would empower corporations and the wealthy with disastrous results for middle-class Americans.

Obama and Vice President Joe Biden converged on Ohio in hopes of rekindling the passion Democrats displayed two years ago in sending the pair to the White House. But Rep. John Boehner, who is poised to become speaker if Republicans win the House, offered a rebuttal as he crisscrossed the state, warning voters not to be taken in by familiar promises of changing Washington.

“Washington hasn’t been listening to the American people; I think it’s been disrespecting the American people,” Boehner said, firing up Republicans in Columbus. He flashed a sign of confidence, saying: “We’re going to have a big night on Tuesday night — a really big night.”

Republicans are positioned to reach or surpass the number of House seats they picked up in 1994, according to strategists and independent analysts, when the party gained 54 and ended four decades of Democratic dominance in the House.

The ranks of vulnerable Democrats deepened, with House seats in Connecticut, Maine and Rhode Island becoming susceptible to a potential Republican wave that could exceed the 39 seats needed to win control. Democrats clung to hope that they could hold on to the Senate by at least a seat or two.

As the White House prepared for widespread losses Tuesday, it sought to minimize the political damage to the party and to Obama’s re-election chances in two years by urging its supporters to work even harder to help narrow the gap in tight races.

“In two days, you have a chance to once again say, ‘Yes, we can,’” Obama said at a rally in Cleveland, reprising the theme of his 2008 campaign. “There is no doubt that this is a difficult election.”

Former President Bill Clinton began a nine-state sweep to help preserve the Democratic majority, rallying voters along the Eastern Seaboard from Maine to Florida.

The focus on Democratic-leaning states, including congressional races in New York and Connecticut, along with governors’ races in Maine and New Hampshire, underscored the degree to which Democrats are almost entirely on defense against Republicans at a time when the unemployment rate remains stubbornly high, and the nation is deeply divided over issues like health care.

Neck and neck in Washington, Rossi, Murray chase swing voters

By William Yardley New York Times News Service

AUBURN, Wash. — Give Dino Rossi points for political efficiency. It was only in late May that the Republican announced he would challenge Sen. Patty Murray, a popular three-term Democratic incumbent. Barely five months later, he is in one of the closest Senate races in the country.

The Republican Party’s hope that the Washington race could help it win control of the Senate has waned somewhat because of shifts toward Democrats in Senate races elsewhere. But money has continued to pour in from outside groups, nearly $20 million going into the weekend before Election Day, and polls have shown the race to be tight.

A win here, political analysts say, might still help the Republicans achieve a 50-50 Senate, where Vice President Joe Biden would have the deciding vote. Republicans could also argue that they should share

Less-involved young voters say they feel abandoned

By Damien Cave New York Times News Service

MIAMI — Two years ago, the University of Miami could not get enough Barack Obama. The campaign rally he held here felt like a rock concert, his face appeared on T-shirts all over campus, and pro-Obama volunteers registered 2,000 new voters.

Meetings of the College Democrats that attracted 200 people in 2008 now pull in a dozen. Newvoter registration is way down, too, and free posters of Obama — once “the Michael Jordan” of politics, as one freshman put it — are now refused by students.

“It’s not the fad anymore,” said Jessica Kirsner, 21, a junior from Houston and vice president of the College Democrats. “It’s not the fad to be politically knowledgeable and active.”

This was not what Generation O expected. Obama won two years ago with 66 percent of the 18- to 29-year-old vote, a historic

proportion. Americans under 30 also worked on campaigns at a greater rate than the general population did for the first time since 1952, or possibly even earlier, according to the National Election Studies.

Now, however, former Obama volunteers nationwide say that they and their former colleagues are less involved and more ambivalent. Experts say the usual midterm effect, in which young voters are especially likely to disengage, has combined with an unexpected distance that has arisen between Obama and his young constituents. While most of them still view him far more favorably than their older counterparts do, various polls show that the youthful passion that led to action has not been sustained.

Many young Obama supporters and volunteers said they had hoped to play a bigger role with the Obama agenda.

After months of attack ads, both sides also broadcast newer “positive” commercials over the weekend. Not that anyone declared a truce.

“My opponent wants to repeal Wall Street reform,” Murray told a boisterous crowd of about 150 at a union hall in Vancouver, Wash., on Sunday.

She lumped Rossi in with Senate Republicans who she said were “holding hostage your middle-class tax cuts today.”

Both candidates hopscotched the state, traveling from conservative rural areas east of the Cascades to more Democratic cities west of the mountains. For all the intensity, the drama on Election Day may not be as great here as elsewhere. Most voters in the state cast their ballots by mail, and they can mail them as late as the night of the election. If the race is close, it could be days before the results are known.

Little ad

WASHINGTON — Top Republicans conceded Sunday that they could fall short of winning control of the Senate in Tuesday’s congressional elections.

Tension rose over a faltering tea party-backed Republican candidate in Alaska.

“It’s harder in the Senate,” said Gov. Haley Barbour of Mississippi, chairman of the Republican Governors Association and a former chairman of the Republican National Committee, during an appearance on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”

Complicating Republican hopes to take the Senate: two tea party candidates who seized Republican nominations away from more moderate and established candidates in Alaska and Delaware.

In Alaska, Sen. John Cornyn, R-Texas, chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, conceded that he’s concerned about Miller, the party’s nominee.

Republican Sen. Lisa Murkowski had seemed all but certain to hold the seat.

But she was defeated in a primary by tea party candidate Miller, with strong backing from Palin, who’s had a long-running feud with the Murkowski family.

Now Miller is bogged down by his admission that he lied about his use of government computers for political work, and by his use of private guards to handcuff a reporter who tried to ask Miller a question.

He’s in a close three-way race with Murkowski, who’s making an independent write-in bid, with Democrat Scott McAdams trailing.

In Delaware, Republican insiders once thought they had a slam dunk to take the Democratic seat once held by Vice President Joe Biden when it appeared that popular Rep. Mike Castle would win the nomination.

But he was upset in August by tea party favorite Christine O’Donnell. She’s now handicapped both by her staunch conservatism in a more liberal state and by controversial statements such as believing that scientists are developing mice with human brains and that she had classified information about a secret Chinese plan to take over America.

Though foiled, bomb plot illuminates security gaps New York Times News Service In the middle of last week, a woman who claimed her name was Hanan al-Samawi, a 22year-old engineering student, walked into the UPS office in the upscale Hadda neighborhood of San‘a, Yemen’s sprawling capital city. She displayed a photocopied identification card and dropped off a bomb hidden inside a printer cartridge, with a Chicago address listed as the package’s destination. A few blocks away, another package concealing a homemade bomb was dropped off at a FedEx office, also seemingly headed to Chicago.

Within days, the two packages had advanced through four separate countries in at least four different airplanes — two of them carrying passengers — before they were identified in Britain and Dubai after an 11th-hour tip from Saudi Arabia’s intelligence service set off an international terror alert and a frantic hunt that ended with the discovery of the bombs. The foiling of the package plot was a success in an era of well-publicized intelligence breakdowns and miscommunications. It was also a sobering

reminder to officials around the world that quick response to timely intelligence rules the day.

In Qatar, officials acknowledged Sunday that one of the packages had been carried on two Qatar Airlines passenger planes, apparently having eluded the airline’s baggage screening system. In Britain, officials were embarrassed about how long it took the authorities to identify one of the packages as a carefully concealed bomb.

U.S. and Yemeni officials still have little hard evidence about who was involved in the thwarted attack. Only on Sunday did officials in Yemen discover that al-Samawi’s identity had apparently been stolen and that she was not the same woman who dropped off the packages.

It was one more piece of a carefully designed and cleverly disguised plot that investigators believe was conceived by al-Qaida’s affiliate in Yemen, the group that U.S. officials say might pose the most immediate threat to U.S. soil. AlSamawi was released on bail Sunday, and the authorities in Yemen have arrested no other suspects.

Ex-guerrilla to be Brazil’s first female president The Associated Press SAO PAULO — A former Marxist guerrilla who was tortured and imprisoned during Brazil’s long dictatorship was elected Sunday as president of Latin America’s biggest nation, a country in the midst of an economic and political rise.

A statement from the Supreme Electoral Court, which oversees elections, said governing party candidate Dilma Rousseff won the election.

When she takes office Jan. 1, she will be Brazil’s first female leader.

With 99 percent of the ballots counted, Rousseff had 55.6 percent compared to 44.4 percent for her centrist rival, Jose Serra, the elec-

toral court said.

“I’m very happy. I want to thank all Brazilians for this moment, and I promise to honor the trust they have shown me,” Rousseff told reporters who swarmed a car carrying her in Brasilia, her first public words as president-elect.

On South Korean islands, ancient diving trade struggles to survive

By John M. Glionna Los Angeles Times

MARA ISLAND, South Korea — The sea is restless as Kim Jaeyeon perches on the rocky shoreline, eyeing the churning waters at her feet. Slowly, she wipes her goggles with a fistful of grass to keep them from fogging underwater and offers a prayer to the pounding surf for her good fortune.

Like six generations of women before her on this treeless speck of land in the East China Sea, the young mother of two is preparing for a dangerous job no man here is allowed to perform: free-diving for minutes at a time to catch abalone and other shellfish.

Kim is learning to join the ranks of the haenyeo, or women of the sea, whose role as ocean huntergatherers has long given them special status in a Korean culture dominated by men. These women on a group of islands south of the South Korean mainland have turned tradition on its head.

For decades, divers here have groomed their daughters for a life at sea. They teach them how to conserve oxygen to extend their dives and stress the importance of working in groups, like a herd of watchful seals, vigilant against shark attacks, rip currents and marauding motorboats that buzz the surface.

The diving, with its daily hazards and emphasis on teamwork, has molded the women into a cohesive group that has often gathered by the campfire with the day’s catch to make decisions about village politics.

But this matriarchal way of life is now in peril. Modern fishing boats that encroach on their catch-

Kim Jae-yeon, 33, left, is the youngest among the women freedivers who swim in the seas off Mara Island, South Korea, a dangerous occupation in which only women are allowed to work. ing grounds have reduced the number of shellfish, forcing the haenyeo farther out to sea, leaving them less time to dive.

The diminished catch has made the profession a struggle for survival. Nowadays, the women are able to gather only enough catch to feed their families, with a bit left over to sell to tourists. Shellfish that once was sent to ports such as Japan now stays at home.

And, lured away by careers on the mainland, fewer daughters are diving.

The number of haenyeo has plummeted by two-thirds in just a few decades, from 15,000 in the 1970s to slightly more than 5,000 today. On Mara Island, about the size of an 18-hole golf course with a full-time population of 80 resi-

dents, the number has dropped from 15 to seven.

At 33, Kim is the youngest haenyeo in South Korea, where half the divers are over 70 and 90 percent are at least 50. She isn’t diving for the money — Kim makes her living by running a restaurant. But following the lead of her mother, aunt and grandmother, she spends most mornings learning an ancient haenyeo trade that connects her to her ancestors.

“It’s now or never,” she said.

“One day, the elders will be gone, and the sea will be mine alone. I want to learn all I can while there’s still time. So I can teach the other women who might one day come.”

On this morning, a typhoon is gathering 1,000 miles to the south, and the swirling currents already

thrash angrily. Even with only four years’ experience, Kim knows the sea is dangerous enough without bad weather.

As she struggles to put on her wetsuit cap, her aunt, Kim Choungeum, 56, appears. The older woman patiently assists her niece, whispering words of encouragement. Then student and mentor slip into the churning water to join the others.

Like the earliest female sea divers in neighboring Japan, the Korean haenyeo once wore only flimsy cotton gowns that offered no protection against the bonechilling cold. Working in groups, they pushed makeshift collection nets attached to a surface buoy while diving dozens of times a day, using iron picks and scythes to pry loose the shells from rocks as deep as 60 feet or more. They didn’t believe in overfishing, harvesting just enough to get by.

They eventually donned wetsuits, but there’s one modern convenience the haenyeo have shunned: oxygen tanks, which would allow them to exhaust the catch too soon.

Despite their caution, accidents are common. Each year a handful of divers die in shark attacks or by drowning. The work also takes a long-term health toll. Like many older haenyeo, Kim’s grandmother, Byun Chun-ok, 84, suffers from ear and lung problems. Her joints still ache years after leaving the water for good.

Kim’s aunt, Kim Choun-geum, is fully aware of the dangers of her job.

“One mistake and the ocean will kill you,” she said. “Our rule is to never get greedy.”

Plague Continued from A1 The Black Death began in Europe in 1347 and killed an estimated 30 percent or more of the population there. The epidemic continued to strike every 10 years or so for centuries, its last major outbreak being the Great Plague of London from 1665 to 1666. The disease is spread by rats and transmitted to people by fleas or, in some cases, directly by breathing.

One team of biologists, led by Barbara Bramanti of the Institut Pasteur in Paris and Stephanie Haensch of Johannes Gutenberg University in Germany, analyzed ancient DNA and proteins from plague pits, the mass burial grounds across Europe in which the dead were interred. Writing in the journal PLoS Pathogens this month, they say their findings put beyond doubt that the Black Death was brought about

by Yersinia pestis.

Bramanti’s team was able to distinguish two strains of the Black Death plague bacterium, which differ from each other and from the three principal strains in the world today. They infer that medieval Europe must have been invaded by two sources of Yersinia pestis. One strain reached the port of Marseilles on France’s southern coast in 1347, spread rapidly across France and by 1349 had reached Hereford, a busy English market town and pilgrimage center near the Welsh border.

The strain of bacterium analyzed from the bones and teeth of a Hereford plague pit that was dug in 1349 is identical to that from a plague pit of 1348 in southern France, suggesting a direct route of travel. But a plague pit in the Dutch town of Bergen op Zoom has bacteria of a different strain, which the researchers infer arrived from Norway.

The Black Death is the middle of three great waves of plague

in history. The first appeared in the sixth century during the reign of the Byzantine Emperor Justinian, reaching his capital, Constantinople (which is now Istanbul), on grain ships from Egypt. The Justinian plague, as historians call it, is thought to have killed perhaps half the population of Europe and to have eased the Arab takeover of Byzantine provinces in the Near East and Africa.

The third great wave began in Yunnan province in China in 1894, appeared in Hong Kong and then spread via shipping routes throughout the world.

It reached the United States through a ship from Hong Kong that docked at Hawaii, where plague broke out in December 1899, and then San Francisco, where the epidemic began in March 1900.

The three plague waves have now been tied together in a common family tree by a team of medical geneticists led by Mark Achtman of University College Cork in Ireland. By looking at genetic variations in living strains of Yersinia pestis, Achtman’s team has reconstructed a genealogy of the bacterium stretching back 20,000 years. By counting the number of genetic changes, which are clocked at a generally steady rate, they have dated the branch points of the tree, which enables the major branches to be correlated with historic events.

In an article in the issue of Nature Genetics published online Sunday, they conclude that all three of the great waves of plague originated from China.

Plague would have reached Europe across the Silk Road, they say. An epidemic of plague in East Africa was probably spread by the voyages of the Chinese Admiral Zheng, who led a fleet of 300 ships to Africa in 1409.

“What’s exciting is that we are able to reconstruct the historical routes of bacterial disease over centuries,” Achtman said.

Newberry Continued from A1 The event would have dwarfed the 1980 Mount St. Helens eruption, said Bart Wills, Deschutes National Forest geologist.

Newberry Volcano is active because of movements of the Earth’s crust, he said — the Pacific Ocean plate is slowly pushing under the North American plate. As the Pacific plate edges deeper, the water in the rocks gets super heated and starts to melt the crust. The liquid hot material then seeps up through the crust to form magma chambers.

That heat, at relatively shallow depths below Newberry, has drawn the interest of geothermal exploration companies, hoping to tap into the hot rocks and potentially steam to turn turbines and generate power. It’s also what causes the hot springs in Paulina and East lakes.

And it causes two different types of volcanic eruptions, Wills said.

Features like the Big Obsidian Flow resulted when magma rich in silica exploded, he said. After gas trapped in the thick, viscous lava escapes in an eruption of ash and pumice, the lava oozes out, cooling quickly and tumbling over itself. Because of the high, sandlike silica content, it forms the glassy obsidian.

The second type of eruption, seen at Lava Butte, is more common and involves basalt flows,

said Daniele McKay, a Ph.D. student at the University of Oregon who studies the area’s cinder cones.

Lava Butte is outside of the main volcano, but formed 7,000 years ago when lava spread out from magma chambers through a fissure in the rocks. The lava emerged at the butte as well as other vents along the rift, including Mokst Butte, which is southeast of Lava Butte across Highway 97, and the Lava Cast Forest, which is even farther to the southeast.

And those eruptions are driven by volcanic gas, she said.

“That gas makes the eruption a little more explosive,” she said.

“It sends the lava up, like a fire fountain.”

Once the gas has escaped, the lava flows are fluid and can travel a long distance, McKay said.

And even a small eruption could send out a lava flow that could cause damage, DonnellyNolan said. In addition to blocking roads or railroad tracks, the lava could dam up the Deschutes River. That’s what the Lava Butte Flow did 7,000 years ago, forming a lake behind the lava until the water burst through, rushing downstream toward Bend.

Donnelly-Nolan is currently working to map all the different lava flows and rock formations at Newberry, to understand more about the volcanic processes.

“If you don’t understand what it’s been doing,” she said, “then you can’t argue very strongly for

what it might do in the future.”

Although eruptions sometimes come in clusters over time, it’s difficult to tease out a pattern that could tell geologists when Newberry might erupt again.

But the USGS is setting up additional monitoring stations to be able to give an advance warning if Newberry does start acting up.

The plan is to place eight seismometers and Global Positioning Systems around Newberry, said Cynthia Gardner, scientist in charge at the Cascades Volcano Observatory in Vancouver, Wash. The seismometers will alert researchers if the magma starts moving, breaking rocks, while the GPS can tell if the ground starts moving.

“We want to be able to detect those things to know that the volcano’s showing signs of reawakening,” Gardner said. “It’s a way we can give warning.”

USGS considers Newberry to be a “very high threat” volcano, one of the top three in Oregon after Crater Lake and Mount Hood. The threat is based on the potential for an eruption as well as the proximity to populated areas, and the possibility for an eruption to disrupt air travel by sending ash into the air.

Currently, Newberry only has one seismometer, she said, which could detect movement but does not allow geologists to calculate the precise locations where the earthquakes are happening. With additional monitoring stations — which cost

Turnout

Debt

Continued from A1 Because clerks offices are closed over the weekend, no new turnout figures will be available until later this evening. Ballots must be received by 8 p.m. Tuesday, so voters who have not yet turned in their ballots must take them to a drop site rather than putting them in the mail.

Secretary of State Kate Brown on Friday projected final statewide turnout to hit 72 percent, slightly above the 70.8 percent recorded in 2006 and the 69.1 percent tallied in 2002. Statewide turnout in the presidential election years of 2000, 2004 and 2008 was notably higher, hitting 79.8, 86.5 and 85.7 percent, respectively.

Jefferson County Chief Deputy Clerk Lynne Weisen said this year’s ballot returns in her county are running nearly even with the presidential election year of 2008, when 83.5 percent of registered voters cast a ballot. As of Friday afternoon, the clerks office had measured turnout at 46.6 percent, as compared to 49 percent on the same day in 2008.

In Crook County, ballot returns are running behind 2008 but slightly ahead of 2006, when 72.9 percent of eligible voters cast a ballot. Clerk Dee Berman said she expects the final tally this year will be similar. Through Friday, 49 percent of Crook County voters had returned their ballots.

“In Crook County, (2006) was kind of a contentious election, too, because we had a (county) commissioner’s race and a sheriff’s race that was pretty hotly contested, like we do this time, so it really is kind of an apples to apples comparison,” Berman said.

Deschutes County Clerk Nancy Blankenship said with 40 percent of ballots received through Friday, it appears turnout will surpass the 71 percent figure recorded in 2006 and the 69.6 percent turnout of 2002.

Polling around the country in recent months has pointed toward a so-called “enthusiasm gap,” in which Republican voters have been more likely to tell pollsters they are certain to vote this year than their Democratic, unaffiliated or minor party counterparts.

Many races are expected to hinge on the ability of candidates to turn out their party’s voters.

Clerks in all three Central Oregon counties said they were unable to break down voter turnout through Friday by party registration. All three counties have more registered Republicans than Democrats, and Republicans have been slightly more likely to return their ballots most years.

Deschutes County Commission candidates Dallas Brown, a Democrat and also the Independent Party candidate, and Tony DeBone, a Republican, both said they don’t think the final turnout figure will have much bearing on how they do Tuesday.

DeBone said he’s spent little effort trying to predict total voter turnout, and wouldn’t change how he’s campaigning based on turnout projections. Every morning, the campaign visits the clerk’s office to pick up a list of voters who have not returned their ballots, he said, and volunteers contact them by phone to try to persuade them to get their ballots in.

“We definitely approach it in the same way. It’s an exciting time to be running for a political office; there’s a lot of people paying attention to what’s going on these days,” DeBone said. “Higher turnout means we have people engaged in the process of choosing our elected officials, so we always promote this.”

Brown’s campaign has dug into the numbers further, calculating what he calls the “win number” — the number of votes he’ll need to collect to prevail on Tuesday.

The figure is based on anticipated total turnout, minus an 8 to 10 percent “undervote” — the portion of voters who won’t bother to fill in a bubble for the county commission race — divided by two.

As of Friday, Brown pegged the win number at somewhere between 26,500 and 28,500 votes, suggesting a turnout similar to 2002 and 2006. Brown said his campaign is focused on finding the voters who can help get him to that win number, and is targeting a handful of precincts in Redmond, east Bend and southern Deschutes County.

Still, Brown said he’ll have to win votes from Democrats, Republicans and unaffiliated voters, and is unconcerned by the prospect of an enthusiasm gap.

“For me, I don’t think so as much as other candidates. I think higher voter turnout, democracy is the healthiest with active participation,” he said. “I hope people turn in their ballots, but as far as higher or lower turnout goes, I don’t buy into that.”

Continued from A1 “The difference is that in the case of debt buyers, the abuses are much worse,” says Richard Rubin, a consumer lawyer in Santa Fe, N.M. “At least when it comes to mortgages, the banks have the right address, everyone agrees about the interest rate. But with debt buyers, the debt has been passed through so many hands, often over so many years, that a lot of time these companies are pursuing the wrong person, or the charges have no lawful basis.”

The debt in these cases — typically from credit cards, auto loans, utility bills and so on — is sold by finance companies and banks in a vast secondary market, bundled in huge portfolios, for pennies on the dollar. Debt buyers often hire collectors to commence a campaign of insistent letters and regular phone calls. Or, in a tactic that is becoming increasingly popular, they sue.

Nobody knows how many debtcollection affidavits are filed each year, but a report by the nonprofit Legal Aid Society found that in New York City alone more than 450,000 were filed by debt buyers, from January 2006 to July 2008, yielding more than $1.1 billion in judgments and settlements.

Scott Hammers can be reached at 541-383-0387 or at shammers@bendbulletin.com.

‘Broken system’ Problems with this torrent of litigation are legion, according to the Federal Trade Commission, which issued a report on the subject, “Repairing a Broken System,” in July. In some instances, banks are selling account information that is riddled with errors.

More often, essential background information simply is not acquired by debt buyers, in large part because that data adds to the price of each account. But court rules state that anyone submitting an affidavit to a court against a debtor must have proof of that claim — proper documentation of a debt’s origins, history and amount.

Without that information, it is hard to imagine how any company could meet the legal standard

Linda Almonte contacted JPMorgan Chase & Co.’s legal counsel about mistakes and inconsistencies in delinquent accounts that were to be sold. She was fired within days and has filed a wrongful termination suit. of due diligence, particularly while churning out thousands of affidavits a week.

Analysts say that affidavitsigners at debt-buying companies appear to have little choice but to take at face value the few facts typically provided to them — often little more than basic account information on a computer screen.

That was made vividly clear during the deposition last year of Jay Mills, an employee of a subsidiary of SquareTwo Financial (then known as Collect America), a debt-buying company in Denver.

“So,” asked Dale Irwin, the plaintiff’s attorney, using shorthand for Collect America, “if you see on the screen that the moon is made of green cheese, you trust that CACH has investigated that and has determined that in fact, the moon is made of green cheese?”

“Yes,” Mills replied.

Given the volume of affidavits, even perfunctory research seems impossible. Cherie Thomas, who works for Asta Funding, a debt buyer in Englewood Cliffs, N.J., said in a 2007 deposition that she

had signed 2,000 affidavits a day.

With a half-hour for lunch and two brief breaks, that’s roughly an affidavit every 14 seconds.

Executives at debt-buying firms say they have systems to ensure the accuracy of their affidavits. Robert Michel, chief financial officer at Asta Funding, says his company hires outside lawyers to read over affidavits, then has staff employees check their work.

“The people who work in this area are well trained, and they know that when they sign a statement they have to follow certain procedures,” he said. “They know what they are doing.”

He added that the pace of affidavits filed by Asta had dwindled since 2007 and was now closer to “several hundred” a day, rather than 2,000.

Flawed at the source Even if debt buyers purchase the requisite information directly from a bank, it may be flawed.

Linda Almonte oversaw a team of advisers, analysts and managers at JPMorgan Chase & Co. last year when the company was

5 41 . 317. 6 0 0 0

preparing the sale of 23,000 delinquent accounts, with a face value of $200 million. With the debt sold at roughly 13 cents on the dollar, the sale was supposed to net $26 million.

As the date of the sale approached, Almonte and her employees started to notice mistakes and inconsistencies in the accounts.

“We found that with about 5,000 accounts there were incorrect balances, incorrect addresses,” she said. “There were even cases where a consumer had won a judgment against Chase, but it was still part of the package being sold.”

Almonte flagged the defects with her manager, but he shrugged them off, she says, and he urged her and her colleagues to complete the deal in time for the company’s coming earnings report. Instead, she contacted senior legal counsel at the company. Within days, she was fired.

She has since filed a wrongful termination suit against Chase.

A Chase spokesman declined to comment, citing the pending litigation.

The majority of lawsuits filed

in debt collection cases go unanswered, which is why most end with default judgments — victories for creditors that allow them to use court officers or sheriffs to garnish wages or freeze bank accounts, among other remedies.

There is a persistent argument about why so few consumers respond in these cases. They often know they owe the debt and conclude that fighting about it is pointless, said Barbara Sinsley, general counsel at DBA International, a trade group of debt buyers.

Lawyers for consumers, on the other hand, contend that few debtors ever learn about the legal action until it is too late, often because the process server charged with alerting them never actually delivered a notification. In those instances when a consumer hires a lawyer, the consumer often prevails.

“I’ve lost four, and I’ve taken about 5,000 cases,” said Jerry Jarzombek, a consumer lawyer in Fort Worth, Texas. “If the case goes to trial, I say to the judge, ‘Your honor, imagine if someone came in here to give eyewitness testimony in a traffic accident case and they didn’t actually see the crash. They just read about it somewhere. Well, this is the same thing.’ The debt buyers don’t know anything about the debt. They just read about it.”

Every plaintiff’s lawyer and consumer advocate in this field has a theory about why there has been so much fury over mortgage paperwork abuses but nary a peep about nearly identical practices in debt collections. The stakes in collections cases are smaller, and of course, debt buyers were never given a taxpayer bailout.

“But what people don’t realize,” said Daniel Edelman, a plaintiff’s lawyer in Chicago, “is that the mortgage issue and debt collections are intimately connected.

The millions of default judgments out there — you better believe that’s one reason that homeowners can’t afford their homes.”

T

he Old Mill was filled with witches, soldiers, skeletons, dragons, bears and more on Sunday, as families crowded the shopping area for some Halloween trick-or-treating.

Mackenzie White, 6, donned a bright orange wig, purple dress and neon green scarf to dress up as Daphne from Scooby Doo, and joined her friend Eliana Clute, 5, who added pink streaks to her hair to complete her mermaid outfit. The two collected candy and treats from the different Old Mill stores, but Mackenzie said she loved other spooky festivities as well.

Party, held Sunday afternoon, featured trick-or-treating for the kids as well as horsedrawn wagon rides, pumpkin

painting and mask-making.

Christian Fraser, 8, of Bend, was dressed as a “special ops ninja,” and said he was excited to go trick-or-treating and see the other kids’ costumes.

He had a plan for candy collection as well — like a good ninja, he would blend in with his surroundings and then jump out to grab the goodies.

“I’m going to get a ton of candy,” he said.

Cora Faith came to the event with her 21-month-old son, Arlo Maudlin, who was dressed as a lion, and her 3-year-old daughter, Petra Maudlin, who was dressed as a witch.

Faith said she was thinking of dressing up as a wardrobe, but settled on Mother Goose instead.

“It’s kid friendly for this age,” she said of the Old Mill event. “I didn’t expect so many people.”

In front of Gap Kids, Rihana Debler was handing out candy constantly — an hour into the event, and she had to refill the big bowl of Starburst and Skittles six times.

Safety and etiquette The open house will cover topics such as public safety and trail etiquette, she said, and could be the start of some rule changes related to off-leash dogs in the Deschutes National Forest.

Kreg Lindberg, president of the Bend-based group DogPAC, said he believes some of the current restrictions on dogs are not legitimate. Rules relating to dogs on the Deschutes River Trail, in wilderness areas and on ski trails north of the Cascade Lakes Highway are based on federal regulations on transport and possession of animals in the forest, he said, which DogPAC believes are not appropriate.

Chance of snow in week’s forecast The Bulletin

After wet weather last week, Central Oregon should see some dry but cold weather for the first week of November.

“It looks like it’s going to be fairly nice for you guys up until Friday,” said Rob Brooks, forecaster with the National Weather Service in Pendleton.

Although today is forecast to be mostly cloudy, with highs between 56 and 66 degrees and lows between 32 and 42 degrees, the skies should start to clear out Tuesday.

With partly cloudy skies, Tuesday is forecast to have highs between 60 and 69 degrees, Brooks said. The

night sky should be mostly clear, and the lows are forecast to drop down to between 29 and 39 degrees.

Clear and colder Clear skies bring colder temperatures, Brooks said.

“You don’t have the layer of clouds up there to hold in the heat, so it all gets reflected into space,” he said.

On Wednesday, under mostly clear skies, the highs will be between 59 and 64 degrees, while the lows will drop to between 29 and 36 degrees, Brooks said.

The temperatures are forecast to creep down slightly again Thursday, with highs between 58 and 63 de-

Construction should continue this week on the southbound lanes of U.S. Highway 97 south of Bend from Lava Butte to the South Century Interchange, according to the Oregon Department of Transportation.

The work on this stretch of highway is part of a three-year, $16 million improvement project. It was awarded to Knife River Corporation in June 2009.

Part of the project’s funding, some $11.7 million, comes from federal stimulus money.

The overall goal is to improve capacity and safety on that stretch of highway. ODOT determined the lane configuration was inadequate, and there was no safe access to the highway at several points — Lava Lands Visitors Center, Lava River Cave and Cottonwood Road.

The original plan was to put in a forested median between northbound and southbound traffic, increase capacity to four lanes and reconstruct the Cottonwood Road interchange, according to ODOT. The existing access at Lava River Cave was to be removed and a new access added.

Structures and fencing would also be added to improve wildlife passage.

The project was originally scheduled to be completed some time in 2011.

A man dressed as a pirate flagged down a bike officer to alert him to the van.

Police say the van contained open containers of beer.

Armstrong says a 2½-yearold boy and his 16-month-old sister were buckled into car seats, but the car seats weren’t properly secured.

She says the children were unhurt but had no food. Medics turned them over to Child Protective Services.

Armstrong says 45-yearold Sheila Kay Michalios, of nearby Yacolt, was booked into the Clark County jail for investigation of reckless endangerment, a misdemeanor.

O Tribe plans Celilo Falls tribute Portland commission

offers $8.1M loan to keep Vestas in city

Leaders work with renowned architect to build memorial on Columbia River

The Associated Press

By Phil Ferolito Yakima Herald-Republic

THE DALLES — Not everyone is old enough to remember the roar of the once-great Celilo Falls on the Columbia River. A dozen miles east of The Dalles Dam, water once crashed over jagged basalt walls that formed the falls, and created one of the greatest fisheries and trading hubs in the Pacific Northwest.

But that was before the falls slipped beneath the water after the dam was constructed in 1957.

For the past eight years, tribal leaders seeking to preserve memories of the falls and the people who flourished in its shadow have been working with world-renowned architect and artist Maya Lin — creator of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C. — to erect a memorial.

Tribal elders have shared their oral history, culture and traditions with Lin to help her design a 300-foot-long walkway — evocative of a fishing scaffold — that will jut over the massive and now-tamed river.

It’s just one of several major art pieces she’s designed in what is known as the Confluence Project, a series of memorials planned for or already installed at the request of tribal elders along the Columbia River.

The memorials are intended to preserve the memory of how the river shaped the lives of those who lived along its banks before it carried Lewis and Clark to the Pacific Ocean.

The memorials also aim to explain the loss those indigenous people suffered when the river was choked with dams to provide cheap electricity.

‘More than symbolic’ “The wounds have to see the light of day, and people have to learn and understand that history,” said Umatilla tribal member Bobbie Conner. “It’s more than symbolic — it’s the beginning of a conversation or dialogue that this country has yet to have.”

The walkway will be placed at Celilo Park, a grassy area and boat launch at the river’s edge just below Celilo Village, near the historical site of the falls. Built of wood and anchored to steel support beams, the walkway’s wood floor symbolizes traditional fishing scaffolds while its wood-woven sides represent baskets commonly used by Columbia River Indians.

Along the walkway will be inscriptions about geological formations, and tribal explanations of their creation and meaning, as well as excerpts from the journals of Lewis and Clark. Tribal protests of the construction of the dam will also be documented.

Toward the end of the walkway will be a description of what it was like to be standing at the falls.

But it’s also at the end of the walkway that visitors will expe-

Native Americans fish from platforms over Celilo Falls on the Columbia River along the OregonWashington border on Sept. 1, 1956. The platforms were washed away after the gates of The Dalles Dam were closed in March 1957, raising the water level above the falls. rience all that’s been lost, said Aili Schreiner, of Portland, director of the project, on behalf of Lin, who rarely gives interviews.

“The visitor will walk toward the end and not see the falls, not feel the mist, not hear the roar,” Schreiner said.

Late last week, the Confluence Project unveiled a model of the walkway at a local winery in The Dalles.

The event attracted more than 100 well-wishers who examined historical pictures and newspaper articles of the falls, and construction of the dam.

Members of The Dalles City Council and Chamber of Commerce spoke in support of the project and its anticipated economic development benefits.

Confluence Project officials said they hope to raise $2.5 million to complete the project at Celilo Park. The Confluence Project, a nonprofit organization, so far has raised $25 million for four of the existing memorial projects plotted along the river from its mouth to its confluence with the Snake River near the Tri-Cities.

“Celilo is worthy of something remarkable because Celilo was a remarkable place,” said Jane Jacobsen, executive director of the Confluence Project. “This is the heart of this — this is so important.”

Depending on fundraising, officials hope to begin the project in early 2012.

Umatilla tribal elder Antone Minthorn and Conner told the crowd of mostly non-Indians what they hope visitors will gain from the memorial.

“That they understand what Celilo Falls was and why it was important to us,” Minthorn said.

“Celilo was a huge fishery — the largest in the Northwest.”

For thousands of years, tribal fishermen mounted wood scaffolds anchored to cliff walls in order to scoop salmon into nets at Celilo Falls.

Villages such as Wyam (Celilo

Village), Wishcum and Tenino sprawled along the river, and Indians from as far as California and the Great Plains would come to trade goods for fish.

“This river connected all those people,” Conner said.

But following the signing of the 1855 Treaty, river Indians were moved to one of four reservations — Yakama, Umatilla, Nez Perce and Warm Springs.

Conner told the story of her great-grandmother, Wyassus, who was about 14 when she was forced from Celilo Village by the federal government.

U.S. soldiers threw her family’s winter food storage into the river, and her parents were killed in a resulting clash, she said.

Wyassus paddled a canoe hidden in a nearby cave upriver to a place where her father had said she’d find people who spoke her native language — the Umatilla reservation.

Such stories abound among the four river tribes.

Today, there is still a village at Celilo, though it is much smaller than the great hub that flourished prior to the construction of the dam.

“While you don’t see us all living in The Dalles now, in Celilo we all have ancestral ties to the river,” she said. “Our connection to the river is still strong.”

Project began in 2002 Efforts behind the Confluence Project began in 2002, when river tribes wanted to have a voice in the national commemoration of the Lewis and Clark expedition.

Tribal elders began meeting with a committee that planned the Lewis and Clark Bicentennial, and eventually traveled to New York City to ask Lin to design art that would focus on the historical, cultural and environmental viewpoints of the river.

After hearing the request from tribal leaders, Lin agreed.

The project is considered the

Money problems hit Astoria High School ASTORIA — A shortage of money could curtail postseason participation for students and athletes at Astoria High School.

Principal Larry Lockett tells The Daily Astorian that the school does not have enough money for postseason sports or activities such as choir, band, drama or Future Farmers of America.

Students likely will have to raise the money themselves or not participate.

The Astoria School Board two years ago approved about $2 million in budget cuts.

Lockett says that for sports teams to attend postseason tournaments, enough money needs to be raised for all qualifying teams

to make those trips.

He says it’s “everyone goes or no one goes,” thanks to nondiscrimination guidelines established by Title IX. He estimates the school needs $30,000 for the year.

largest and longest that Lin has undertaken. When complete, a total of seven memorials will be built at sites stretching from the mouth of the Columbia River more than 400 miles upriver to Lewiston, Idaho, on the Snake River.

So far, four sites of the Confluence Project have been complete: a fish-cleaning sink made of basalt and inscriptions along a pathway of Lewis and Clark’s journey at Cape Disappointment State Park near the river’s mouth; a pedestrian bridge that reconnects Fort Vancouver to the river; a trail that leads to a rustic bird blind at the Sandy River Delta near Portland; and seven story circles set into the ground at Sacajawea State Park in Kennewick that tell how the Columbia River’s confluence with the Snake River shaped the lives and culture of Native Americans.

The project doesn’t just focus on history, but also the environmental changes and impacts the river has endured from development over the years.

Tribal elders have been pleased with Lin’s work so far, and like her design for Celilo Park, Minthorn said.

“I trust Maya, that she will get the job done,” he said.

Minthorn said he hopes the project will bring more interaction between Indian and nonIndian communities along the river, where tribal members continue to fish for salmon and sell it to the public.

“I think that’s real important,” he said.

PORTLAND — The Portland Development Commission has offered an $8.1 million interest-free loan with rare incentives to keep the Danish wind-turbine maker Vestas in Portland.

The city economic development agency strayed from its own guidelines in making the loan, and the deal could cost taxpayers as much as $2.6 million to cover interest payments that won’t be made by project developer Gerding Edlen, the Oregonian reported.

PDC officials say the terms are crucial in sealing a deal to renovate the Meier & Frank Depot Building into Vestas’ new U.S. headquarters. The redevelopment project is expected to retain 400 jobs and generate 100 more within five years.

“Vestas was wooed by a number of locales that were as aggressive or more aggressive,” Portland Mayor Sam Adams said. “Portlanders will see a tangible return on their investment.”

Gerding Edlen, which through an investment company owns the former Meier & Frank warehouse, has secured about $29 million in private loans. The PDC loan, approved Wednesday, represents about 12 percent of total project costs, but officials say it is essential.

“That’s why PDC exists,” Chairman Scott Andrews told the newspaper. “We can take a look at a situation like this and create incentives that provide for retaining jobs, bringing in new jobs, revitalizing the neighborhood.”

The PDC has used public money for private development before, but the loan is unlike others in the agency’s Commercial Property Rede-

velopment Loan Program.

The loan is the largest in the program history, agency documents show.

Agency guidelines set a $2 million maximum loan and suggest below-market interest rates of 3 percent and a loan term of up to 10 years.

The term of the loan is 15 years. Four of the program’s 27 other loans are interest-free.

The PDC oversees an annual budget of about $230 million and works with local developers on projects. But any sizable chunk of public money is usually tied to an agreement that makes PDC an active development partner, not just a lender. In this case, the agency reached only a loan agreement.

Loan is ‘the key’ Jay Nusbaum, vice president and general counsel for Vestas Americas, told PDC officials last week that the loan “is really the key to Vestas’ decision to choose to locate our headquarters at the Meier & Frank building and to continue our long-term commitment to Portland and to Oregon.”

Developer Mark Edlen also said the project would not have happened without the money.

“It made the transaction work,” Julie Cody, PDC’s chief financial officer, told the Oregonian. “If the project can sustain interest payments, we require interest payments.”

PDC officials won’t finalize the loan until final construction drawings and contracts are reviewed. Construction is expected to finish in the first quarter of 2012.

Some people may have done just that, we suppose, but history suggests they’re comparatively rare.

Take the November 2008 general election. Most ballots went in the mail Oct. 17. The number of ballots returned on Oct. 19 represents less than 1 percent of the total number returned in that election. The mail picked up a little bit on Oct. 20, when 4 percent of the total number of returned ballots arrived.

The numbers held more or less steady until the election’s final days, when ballots poured in. Thirty-five percent of all returned ballots arrived during the last two days, and more than 20 percent arrived on Election Day itself.

This is not unusual. Not including this year’s, five vote-by-mail general elections have taken place since the

first in November 2000. On average, almost 40 percent of returned ballots have arrived during the elections’ final two days — today and tomorrow, in other words. We assume that many of these late ballots have been mailed rather than hand-delivered, but the behavior the numbers suggest is the same. Even though Oregon’s election system allows people to vote weeks before Election Day, most don’t.

So, if you’ve suddenly discovered your ballot unopened beneath a stack of catalogues, don’t toss it. A vote’s a vote, regardless of when the ballot arrives. And, in fact, today and tomorrow typically see the largest volume of returns. Oregonians who haven’t voted yet might suspect that they’re a little late to the party, but that couldn’t be further from the truth.

Nevertheless, if you’re filling out a ballot today or tomorrow, please be sure to hand-deliver it to the nearest election drop site. Ballots must be returned by 8 p.m. Tuesday.

Small project, big benefit

A

steady dose of economic distress — foreclosures, budget shortfalls, high unemployment, the list goes on — will grind away at the most optimistic communities. But good things happen even in times like these. Last month, for instance, the federal government agreed to spend $250,000 in forest highway funds on improvements to the Phil’s Trail complex just west of Bend.

In the grand scheme of things, $250,000 isn’t a lot of money, even in a relatively small place like Bend. But there are far, far worse ways to spend a quarter of a million bucks.

The Phil’s Trailhead area, just off Skyliners Road, offers convenient access to the area’s large network of mountain bike trails. As a result, it’s heavily used. But the road connecting the trailhead to Skyliners is in terrible shape, and the parking area itself is far too small. As for the single toilet, the less said the better.

The federal funds will pay for a series of upgrades in 2013. These include an expanded parking area, a resurfaced connection to Skyliners Road, new toilets and even improved signage. On a typical trailhead, such a set of improvements would not be quite as noteworthy. But there’s nothing typical about the Phil’s Trail complex. The trailhead is already the most heavily used in the Deschutes National Forest, and even more cyclists will visit in the years to come. While most of these will be locals, many will be tourists who

come to Bend to ride — and eat, shop, rent hotel rooms and so forth. In addition to their other benefits, then, the Phil’s Trailhead improvements constitute an economic development project.

The timing of the project isn’t a coincidence, by the way. The improvements will coincide with the widening and resurfacing of Skyliners Road, which has been the focus of recent debate. The scenic road, which carries relatively little motorized traffic, is a popular route for cyclists. But they aren’t always considerate of drivers.

And this, combined with the road’s generally poor condition and absence of bike lanes, has frustrated many of those who live along the road. Some of them, according to the county, have suggested that most of Skyliners remain bike lane-free, presumably because building lanes would attract more cyclists and more trouble.

Talk about mixed messages. On the one hand, the Phil’s Trailhead area will be improved for the benefit of mountain bikers. And on the other, at least some people are uneasy about the prospect of improving nearby Skyliners Road for the benefit of both motorists and road cyclists.

While we sympathize with Skyliners residents, the county and forest service should recognize the obvious in designing improvements: The road is already a cycling corridor, whether anyone likes it or not. It needs some bike lanes, and the bigger they are the better.

My Nickel’s Worth Wear a helmet It’s a law for children to wear bike helmets in Oregon. Brain injures affect everyone and are forever. They don’t stop affecting lives once a person reaches a certain age. All parents need to be a good example to their kids and always wear a bicycle helmet when riding a bike.

In response to Andrea Gorman’s Oct. 7 “In My View”: First, proximity. The proposed mosque in New York City is not at ground zero.

It is two blocks away and not visible from ground zero, and, as proposed, is more than a place of worship. “Ground zero mosque” is a misnomer intended to stir emotions.

Second, Christian churches in Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran: Whether or not another country allows religious expression outside of its government-sanctioned religion is neither here nor there.

The First Amendment to our Constitution forbids establishment of a national religion or prohibiting free expression of religion.

Third, how many mosques or other religious buildings there are in this country is immaterial. She states there are 1,462 Islamic mosques. My Internet search resulted in a stated 300,000 Christian churches. Unless you are a Native American, you are the result of immigration. How long you have been in this country is of no consequence.

What religion you brought with you does not matter.

I would like to commend Johnson and Wellbourn for writing such an informative guest column about the prevalence of mental illness in our society, and the safety track record that Telecare has had in Deschutes County in establishing transitional housing for these individuals. Unfortunately, the authors forgot to talk about the pink elephant in the room — impact on property values.

This question goes out to all of you readers: If you happen to live next door to one of these homes, do you think your property would maintain its value?

Better yet, what would the corporate officers of Telecare think about one of these homes next door to them?

Please understand, I have nothing but empathy for mentally ill people, and I believe that these people deserve to integrate into society in a healthy and safe way. I think that the way Telecare is going about this is unfair to the people who live in the neighborhoods.

We all work real hard to buy a home and maintain a home, and there is nothing fair about a corporation entering a neighborhood with devastating economic impacts on its residents. There are sections of every community that are more appropriately zoned for tran-

sitional homes like these, and this is where Telecare needs to purchase these types of homes.

Richard Hebert Bend

Don’t fight the state At a time like this with the economy down, city governments are struggling to make budgets work. With the housing market in shambles, a glut of foreclosed properties on the market, and a plethora of developed unsold lots and a fair inventory of vacant land within the city of Bend, it seems ludicrous to me that the city of Bend would squander money to fight a battle it is not likely to win. But more importantly, with the housing and commercial properties markets what they are, do we really need more land brought into the UGB? I am not anti-growth by any means, but the available vacant developed land and undeveloped lands in the current UGB are way and above projected need, considering the setback we have had in housing and commercial development.

It is not likely that we will recover from this for 10 years or more, and the city of Bend UGB proposal was written initially when growth was explosive.

Now the city wants to squander untold sums of money trying to win a fight on principle? To what purpose? This is nothing more than an egotistical battle so the city can attempt to justify its overstaffed planning department?

I think seven planners on city payroll is outrageous and demonstrates the city’s very poor fiscal responsibility. To wage this battle with DLCD would just be an incomprehensible, irresponsible waste of funds.

DMV’s Bend field office isn’t located where it belongs

By Robert Tyler Bulletin guest columnist

A

pproval of the 156-acre RiverRim planned unit development (PUD) in January 2001 authorized 456 single-family homes, 40-plus acres of designated open space and a four-acre commercial convenience (CC) site. At that time, the Bend development code (BDC) CC zone included no government uses.

In mid-2005, the BDC was revised, and the new CC list of 27 permitted uses (section 2.2.300) added “Government — point of service (e.g. City Hall, library).” However, section 3.6.300.J — “Convenience Commercial Development Standards” — includes a significant sentence: “The (CC) zone is intended to provide locations for a wide range of small businesses and services as a convenience to residents in the neighborhood in which the zone is located.” The DMV, Brookswood Meadow LLC (BMLLC), and the city of Bend have all chosen to ignore this standard.

In April 2007, BMLLC met with RiverRim homeowners and neighbors to present their plans for the CC site in RiverRim. BMLLC listed “typical” merchants

they hoped to attract, such as: “Pet store, Hallmark store, furniture store, phone store, hair salon, Mail Boxes Etc., computer store, pizzeria, bank, dry cleaners, tanning salon, florist, photographer, real estate office, restaurants, and grocery store.” These are all compatible with the CC zoning.

BMLLC then submitted its application (PZ 07-305) to the city to develop the site. Of the 27 permitted land uses listed for CC zones, approval for only two was requested: retail sales/service, and restaurants/food service (without drivethrough). These two — and only these two CC permitted uses — were approved when PZ 07-305 was finally OK’d in September 2007. The entire plaza layout — including parking — was strictly based upon these two approved uses. Although the code parking formulas required 153 on-site parking spaces, because of the pedestrian and bicycle-friendly design of the plaza, the hearings officer reduced that requirement to 146.

Due to the economy, the completed plaza stood empty for some time. The initial tenant was a Snap fitness center, followed

IN MY VIEW

by The Rim coffee shop and Toddles preschool in late 2009. Lovejoy’s Market opened in late spring 2010. These four enterprises were warmly embraced by the neighborhood.

Unknown to the general public, in 2010 the DMV began looking for a permanent Bend site to replace its “temporary” location in an ODOT building at 63085 N. U.S. Highway 97. In early May, the Department of Administrative Services (DAS) e-mailed a request for information (RFI) to some 225 recipients. The city of Bend was not notified. In addition to the usual DAS policies dealing with facilities (1256-010 “Sustainable Facilities Standards and Guidelines” and 125-6-115 “Facility Siting”), the RFI delineated specific requirements for the new Bend DMV field office, as follows: • 4,000 to 5,000 rentable square feet of office space • A minimum of 55 visitor parking spaces, including ADA parking adjacent to the office space, as required by code

• Paved inspection space for motorcycle testing and CDL testing (approximately 12,000 square feet) • Ground level contiguous space is preferred • The facility must be ADA accessible • The facility must be properly zoned for government office space • Located on or near a bus line • Easy ingress and egress from the parking lot.

These parameters closely reflected the previous DMV field office at 1000 Emkay St., which served Bend well for 19 years!

Shortly after the RFI was promulgated, DAS received an offer for the previous Emkay Street DMV field office, with a lease rate of $1 per square foot. This offer was virtually ignored. Other responsive lease offers were reviewed, two in great detail. One was directly across the street from the new multimodal transportation center at Fourth and Hawthorne Streets, but that was eventually discarded because of unfounded security concerns about the proximity of the bus station and its “unsavory” patrons. On Aug. 27, four more potential DMV sites were viewed,

including Brookswood Plaza. Two days later, DAS received a written lease offer from Fratzke Realtors, representing BMLLC, for $1.35 per square foot. Fratzke’s sign touts the plaza as a “neighborhood center!”

Despite the fact that the Brookswood Meadow site fails to meet most of the RFI requirements, on Aug. 3 a letter of intent to lease had been prepared between DAS and BMLLC for the Bend DMV field office site. Contract negotiations were put on a “fast track,” and the final 10-year contract was signed on Aug. 25, 2010. Two or three days later, the public and the city of Bend were finally made aware of the lengthy, covert DAS/DMV effort, which ultimately selected the Brookswood Meadow Plaza as the “permanent” site for the Bend DMV field office.

The DMV is here to serve the taxpayers who pay their salaries and building costs.

The DMV is not tasked to rescue struggling real estate ventures. It must be placed elsewhere to a properly zoned, accessible, nonresidential location.

Liang Congjie, 78, founded environmental group in China New York Times News Service BEIJING — Liang Congjie, who was one of the founders of China’s first legally recognized environmental group and who came to be honored by international agencies and the Chinese government alike, died here Thursday. He was 78.

Friends of Nature, the group he established, announced his death on its website. It said he died of a lung infection in a Beijing hospital.

Liang was a historian and teacher at the privately run Academy for Chinese Culture in 1994 when he and three coworkers decided that China’s rapid development merited the creation of a citizens’ group that would work to solve environmental problems. “We knew from television about Greenpeace, but there wasn’t anything like that in China,” he told Asiaweek in 2000.

“My friends and I began wondering, why not here? We decided to try.”

Unlike Greenpeace, which is known for its aggressive tactics and high-profile protests, Friends of Nature took a low-key approach, generally choosing to urge the national government to use existing laws to address environmental issues. It established the nation’s first bird-watching group and recently focused on environmental education in primary schools in western China.

Yet the group also won national recognition for sponsoring daring, and sometimes dangerous, efforts to promote environmental protection.

In the 1990s, Friends of Nature helped to produce an undercover videotape of officials who were proposing to illegally cut down a stand of virgin forest. The video was broadcast nationally on China’s CCTV network and helped lead the prime minister at the time, Zhu Rongji, to order a ban on logging in virgin forests in 1999.

Theodore Sorensen, top aide to JFK, dies at 82

By Hillel Italie The Associated Press

NEW YORK — President John F. Kennedy’s aide and speechwriter, Theodore C. Sorensen, a symbol of hope and liberal governance, died at a time of contempt for Washington and political leaders.

Sorensen’s passing Sunday came just as supporters of his friend and boss were preparing to celebrate the 50th anniversary of a very different moment in history: The election of Kennedy as president, and the speech that remains the greatest collaboration between Sorensen and Kennedy and the standard for modern oratory.

Such a speech is unthinkable now.

With its call for self-sacrifice and civic engagement — “Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for your country” — and its promise to spare no cost in defending the country’s interests worldwide, the address is an uplifting but haunting reminder of national purpose and confidence, before Vietnam, assassinations, Watergate, terrorists attacks and economic shock.

But to the end, Sorensen was a believer.

He was 82 when he died at noon at Manhattan’s New York Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center from complications of a stroke, his widow, Gillian Sorensen, said.

Sorensen had been in poor health in recent years, and a stroke in 2001 left him with such poor eyesight that he was unable to write his memoir, “Counselor,” published in 2008. Instead, he had to dictate it to an assistant.

Obama statement President Barack Obama issued a statement saying he was saddened to learn of Sorensen’s death.

“I know his legacy will live on in the words he wrote, the causes he advanced, and the hearts of anyone who is inspired by the promise of a new frontier,” Obama said.

Hours after his death, Gillian Sorensen told The Associated Press that although a first stroke nine years ago

robbed him of much of his sight, “he managed to get back up and going.”

She said he continued to give speeches and traveled, and just two weeks ago, he collaborated on the lyrics to music to be performed in January at the Kennedy Center in Washington — a symphony commemorating a half century since Kennedy took office.

“I can really say he lived to be 82, and he lived to the fullest and to the last — with vigor and pleasure and engagement,” said Gillian Sorensen, who was at his side to the last. “His mind, his memory, his speech were unaffected.”

Her husband was hospitalized Oct. 22 after a second stroke that was “devastating,” she said.

Of the courtiers to Camelot’s king, special counsel Sorensen ranked just below Kennedy’s brother Bobby. He was the adoring, tireless speechwriter and confidant to a president whose term was marked by Cold War struggles, growing civil rights strife and the beginnings of the U.S. intervention in Vietnam.

Kennedy speeches Some of Kennedy’s most memorable speeches, from his inaugural address to his vow to place a man on the moon, resulted from such close collaborations with Sorensen that scholars debated who wrote what. He had long been suspected as the real writer of the future president’s Pulitzer Prize-winning “Profiles in Courage,” an allegation Sorensen and the Kennedys emphatically — and litigiously — denied.

They were an odd but utterly compatible duo, the glamorous, wealthy politician from Massachusetts and the shy wordsmith from Nebraska, described by Time magazine in 1960 as “a sober, deadly earnest, self-effacing man with a blue steel brain.” But as Sorensen would write in “Counselor,” the difference in their lifestyles was offset by the closeness of their minds: Each had a wry sense of humor, a dislike of hypocrisy, a love of books and a high-minded regard for public life.

Kennedy called him “my intellectual blood bank,” and the press frequently

referred to Sorensen as Kennedy’s “ghostwriter,” especially after the release of “Profiles in Courage.” Presidential secretary Evelyn Lincoln saw it another way: “Ted was really more shadow than ghost, in the sense that he was never really very far from Kennedy.”

Cuban missile crisis Sorensen’s brain of steel was never needed more than in October 1962, with the U.S. and the Soviet Union on the brink of nuclear annihilation over the placement of Soviet missiles in Cuba. Kennedy directed Sorensen and Bobby Kennedy, the administration’s attorney general, to draft a letter to Nikita Khrushchev, who had sent conflicting messages, first conciliatory, then confrontational.

The carefully worded response — which ignored the Soviet leader’s harsher statements and included a U.S. concession involving U.S. weaponry in Turkey — was credited with persuading the Soviets to withdraw their missiles from Cuba and with averting war between the superpowers.

Sorensen considered his role his greatest achievement.

“That’s what I’m proudest of,” he once told the Omaha (Neb.) WorldHerald. “Never had this country, this world, faced such great danger. You and I wouldn’t be sitting here today if that had gone badly.”

Robert Dallek, a historian and the author of “An Unfinished Life: John F. Kennedy, 1917-163,” agreed that Sorensen played a central role in that crisis and throughout the administration.

“He was one of the principal architects of the Kennedy presidency — in fact, the entire Kennedy career,” he said Sunday.

Of the many speeches Sorensen helped compose, Kennedy’s inaugural address shone brightest. Bartlett’s Familiar Quotations includes four citations from the speech — one-seventh of the entire address, which built to the unforgettable exhortation: “Ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country.”

Stuart Speiser, 87, lawyer for families of Lockerbie victims, Nader

By T. Rees Shapiro The Washington Post

Stuart M. Speiser, a foremost authority on aviation law who made headlines in the late 1960s as Ralph Nader’s attorney in a groundbreaking invasion of privacy suit against General Motors, died Oct. 4 at his home in Scottsdale, Ariz. He was 87.

The cause of Speiser’s death was a self-inflicted gunshot wound, his family said.

Nader said Speiser, who was based in New York for much of his career, was a “pioneer in aviation and torts law” who, case after case, won record settlements for his clients. He recalled his former attorney as deeply persuasive, aided by “a voice like Humphrey Bogart — a G-man’s voice, as they say.”

Speiser was one of the first lawyers to use expert testimony from engineers and forensics specialists to re-create a crash scene to prove negligence and willful misconduct.

Lockerbie bombing He successfully represented clients in many high-profile cases, including people whose relatives had died in the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, and relatives of those who had died aboard Korean Airlines Flight 007, which was shot down in 1983 over the Soviet Union.

Speiser’s best-known case started with a phone call to Nader, the consumer advocate and lawyer whose 1965 book “Unsafe at Any Speed” attacked the lack of safety standards for car manufacturers and the fatal design flaws of the Chevrolet Corvair.

Hoping to tar Nader, General Motors hired a private detective. Nader began receiving dozens of annoying and threatening phone calls.

He said that the private detective tailed him and that, in what he considered an attempt to entrap him, women repeatedly approached him on the streets to solicit sexual favors.

In a televised Senate hearing on Capitol Hill in 1966, GM President James Roche apologized to Nader for any harassment the company’s investigation into his personal life might have caused him. Once Speiser heard the apology, he phoned Nader.

“I told Ralph I was sure GM expected to be sued and that they were probably prepared to pay a large sum, larger than any previous award, to bury their mistakes,” Speiser wrote in his 1980 book “Lawsuit.” He said that the potential payout would be “large enough to keep Ralph’s crusades going for years.”

Speiser said that GM would be the perfect target because the company’s image suffered after the publication of “Unsafe at Any Speed.” Furthermore, he wrote, Nader would serve as the “knight in shining armor, champion of the consumer, the last honest man, even a sex symbol.”

Lawsuit against GM Nader and Speiser sued GM for compensatory and punitive damages. Attorneys for GM tried multiple times to throw the case out of court by saying that the carmaker was not responsible for any wrongdoing.

Speiser proved that the independent private detective, Vincent Gillen, had acted directly on behalf of GM and used Gillen’s testimony to that effect against his employer.

More than two years after the suit was filed, GM agreed to pay Nader $425,000 — the largest out-of-court settlement in the history of privacy law. Nader said he used the settlement money to found several public interest groups, including the Center for Auto Safety.

Speiser’s Nader-GM suit has been included in tort law texts across the country.

James Wall, 92, played Mr. Baxter on ‘Captain Kangaroo’

By Dennis McLellan Los Angeles Times

James E. “Jimmy” Wall, who played Captain Kangaroo’s teacher neighbor, Mr. Baxter, on the classic CBS children’s television show during the 1960s and 1970s, has died. He was 92.

Wall, who also worked for nearly 50 years as a stage manager for CBS, died in his sleep Wednesday night in Manhattan after a short illness, the network reported.

An actor who once performed a dance act in clubs and theaters, Wall worked as a stage manager on Broadway before joining CBS as stage manager on the “Captain Kangaroo” show in 1962.

He began playing Mr. Baxter on the weekday morning show in 1968 and played the character

through the 1970s.

It was Wall, a black, who pestered the show’s producers to include a black character on the long-running program that starred Bob Keeshan as the kindly Captain Kangaroo.

“I stayed on the case about not having a black performer or black guests on the show, because I said, ‘Listen, this is America, and you are dealing with our leaders of tomorrow.

They’re the children. You have got to let them know what America is,’” he said in a video clip that aired on the “CBS Evening News” Thursday.

Not that he was a shoo-in. He had to audition for the role.

After his audition, Wall recalled in an interview on CBS’ “The Saturday Early Show” in

2004, “the Captain came down and eased up to me. He says, ‘You got the part.’ He says, ‘Not because we know you and like you; you did the best audition.’”

During his years at CBS, Wall was the stage manager for numerous CBS, CBS News and CBS Sports broadcasts, including the “CBS Evening News,” “Face the Nation,” “60 Minutes” and “NFL Today.”

Although he semi-retired in 1988 at age 71, Wall continued to regularly fill in as a stage manager for the “CBS Evening News” and “60 Minutes” until 2009.

The year before, he was recognized on the air for his 41st consecutive year as stage manager for the U.S. Open Tennis Championships.

James “Jimmy” Wall, rear center, and the cast of the morning children’s show “Captain Kangaroo,” from left, Hugh Brannum, Bob Keeshan, Debbie Weems and Gus Allegretti, are shown.

Wall, Captain Kangaroo’s neighbor “Mr. Baxter,” died Wednesday.

Facing lawsuit, PGE plans to close coal plant earlier New, firmer proposal calls for Oregon’s only coal-fired facility to be shuttered by 2020

By Scott Learn The Oregonian

PORTLAND — Facing a Sierra Club lawsuit and heightened federal scrutiny of its Boardman coal-fired generating plant, Portland General Electric has drafted a much firmer proposal to close Oregon’s only coal plant by Dec. 31, 2020, at least 20 years earlier than anticipated.

The new plan also tightens controls on sulfur dioxide pollution from 2018 to 2020. And it has backing from the Oregon Environmental Council, the Citizens’ Utility Board and other groups, raising the possibility of ending a battle that has raged for years.

To secure the groups’ endorsements, PGE committed to working with them to try to find renewable replacement power, instead of just switching to natural gas.

On Friday, the Department of Environmental Quality reopened its public comment period on its regional haze rule to consider PGE’s latest proposal. The Environmental Quality Commission is expected to rule on Boardman’s required pollution controls in December.

Pollution controls Until PGE’s latest offer, Oregon’s largest electric utility would have retained the option to install $500 million in pollution controls and keep operating through at least 2040, said Andy Ginsburg, DEQ’s air quality administrator.

The new offer, if approved by the Environmental Protection Agency, explicitly repeals the 2040 option in exchange for less pollution control — under $100 million — and closing early, Ginsburg said.

PGE could request the 2040 option again in coming years if the Sierra Club’s lawsuit or new federal rules upped the ante on pollution controls, a point the utility made clear in its offer to

“Ultimately, PGE is going to have to comply, whether that’s through a compromise or actual compliance with the (Clean Air Act) regulations as they’re written.”

— Aubrey Baldwin, attorney representing environmental groups the DEQ. But the regulatory hurdles would be formidable, Ginsburg said.

“From a practical standpoint,” he said, “if the commission accepts this option, they’re going to be closing no later than 2020.”

Even with fewer controls, Boardman’s pollution over the rest of its operating life would be lower if it closed in 2020 than if PGE installed more controls and operated the plant through 2040, Ginsburg said.

The stakes are high. Boardman is Oregon’s largest generator of greenhouse gas emissions and haze- and smog-causing pollution that hampers visibility from Mount Hood to the Columbia River Gorge to Hells Canyon.

The plant also supplies roughly 15 percent of PGE’s generation, and relatively cheap coal helps it keep electric bills down.

The lawsuit from the Sierra Club, Friends of the Columbia Gorge and three other environmental groups alleges that PGE should have installed a full suite of pollution controls years ago, including a $300 million scrubber that would knock down sulfur dioxide emissions by at least 80 percent.

Earlier this month, the EPA backed up that assertion, issuing a notice of violation that accused PGE of operating the plant without adequate controls since 1998.

Attorney Aubrey Baldwin, who represents the environmental groups, said the notion of PGE pulling the 2040 option off the table is “kind of a myth” given the off-ramps in PGE’s new proposal. The Sierra Club wants PGE to close the plant earlier than 2020, perhaps as early as 2015.

“Ultimately, PGE is going to have to comply, whether that’s through a compromise or actual compliance with the (Clean Air Act) regulations as they’re written,” Baldwin said. Closing in 2020 “is not going to get them there.”

The Oregon Environmental Council signed on to PGE’s latest proposal but was careful to say it wasn’t ruling out a closure earlier than 2020.

Jana Gastellum, OEC’s global warming program director, said the council thinks PGE’s removal of the 2040 option and its commitment to explore renewable alternatives is significant.

Given population growth, replacing Boardman solely with natural gas plants would still increase the state’s greenhouse gas emissions over time, she said.

Nuclear power PGE’s previous “low-carbon” alternative focused on politically untenable nuclear power.

Other options include biomass, more efficient use of natural gas and wind power, and increased conservation, including more energy-efficiency upgrades in homes, industries and commercial buildings.

“If we just keep slapping up natural gas plants as a replacement and don’t maximize energy efficiency and renewables, over time we’ll get growth in emissions,” Gastellum said. “We’ve gotten climate change inserted into the conversation.”

Three other groups endorsed PGE’s latest plan: the Citizens’ Utility Board, Renewable Northwest Project and the Northwest Energy Coalition. Angus Duncan, founder and president of the Bonneville Environmental Foundation, also endorsed it.

Local firm to ease medical records’ digital transition

By Ed Merriman The Bulletin

Say goodbye to filing cabinets filled with paper medical charts and hello to the new frontier of Internet medical records, scheduling and other services accessible from anywhere doctors or patients connect via computer or smart phone.

With the medical community facing a federal mandate to switch to electronic medical records by 2014, and stimulus funding available beginning in January to help doctors and hospitals make the transition, Randy and Brenda Barnes responded. The chief operating officer and director of product development, respectively, at Unifi Technologies of Bend, developed an Internet-based system called Unifi-Med to make the transition from paper to electronic medical records a smooth, easy and affordable process.

“We talked to a lot of doctors Randy and built the software around Barnes, the way doctors prefer to do co-owner of things,” said Randy Barnes. “We Unifi Techtook the paper charts doctors are nologies of accustomed to and mirrored that Bend in electronic form.

Tom Elliott and Barbara Scott, who are working toward building a home under the Living Building Challenge, stand on their still-vacant property in northwest Bend. Even though the couple has spent nearly $270,000 and the construction start date has been pushed back several months, they are still passionate about their future home meeting strict environmental standards.

Green home costs, challenges add up Editor’s note: Tom Elliott and Barbara Scott invited The Bulletin to follow their green-building project from start to finish to share their goals, decisions, costs, concerns, problems and achievements, and to be an open book on what it takes to build such a home.

The Bulletin is following the couple’s project through periodic stories.

In this installment, Elliott and Scott share how much they’ve spent before even beginning construction — and the challenges they’re facing trying to build a home that meets the strict requirements of the Living Building Challenge.

But Bend couple is not giving up on building extremely green home

T

he groundbreaking for Barbara Scott and Tom Elliott’s new home, designed as a model of energy efficiency and green living, was originally slated for July.

But it was pushed back to August, Scott said, then September. Now, the couple hopes to start work on the 3,000square-foot home by Christmas.

The delays involved with building a home using only Earth-friendly materials, designing a system to catch rainwater to supply the household’s use and more have

been discouraging. The couple questioned whether to proceed with the strict green standards. And the costs — which have reached $270,000 before the first concrete is poured or a nail pounded — have far exceeded expectations.

“There was a point where I was saying this is ridiculously expensive,” Scott said.

But now, Scott said, she and Elliott are rejuvenated. They decided to continue with green-building programs, including the Living Building Challenge. Among its long list of requirements are strict guidelines for building materials, and mandates for on-site electricity production, and water collection and treatment.

Only one house has been built and tested in North America under Living Building Challenge criteria, and that residence only met two-thirds of the program’s standards.

“This is our cause, this is our passion right now,” Scott said.

Watching hawks like a hawk from Oregon to Texas

By Sandra J. Blakeslee New York Times News Service

CAPILLA PEAK OBSERVATORY, N.M. — Mandy Weston stood on a ridge in the Manzano Mountains, 9,000 feet above the Rio Grande Valley, grasping the talons of a juvenile northern harrier in her right hand.

“These are the supermodels of the raptor world,” she said admiringly. “Tall and thin.” She playfully rotated the bird’s body to reveal that its head remained in a fixed position, like that of an owl.

Weston is the public liaison for a five-person crew that is spending 10 weeks on this mountain observing and banding hawks as they migrate from North America down into Mexico and points south. This is the first northern harrier of the migration season, and the team is ecstatic.

This year, 131 biologists and amateur enthusiasts have permits to trap and band the golden eagles, red-tailed hawks, ospreys, kestrels, peregrine falcons and other birds of prey migrating to their winter habitats, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.

Weston’s team is working under the auspices of HawkWatch International, a conservation and education nonprofit group based in Salt Lake City that focuses on birds of prey as indicators of ecosystem health. Each autumn, it counts hawks at 10 sites in Washington, Oregon, Montana, Wyoming, New Mexico, Nevada, Arizona and Texas. Birds are captured and banded at five of the sites.

Vegetarians’ dinner guests shouldn’t find bone to pick Dear Abby: My partner and I are vegetarians. Occasionally we eat fish, but neither of us has had pork, beef or fowl for more than 10 years.

We were at a barbecue at a good friend’s house a short time ago, and our gracious hosts kindly prepared veggie burgers especially for us. Another guest at the party asked me if I’d be as goodnatured as our hosts if I were to have a get-together at my house.

(In other words, would I serve meat to our carnivorous guests.)

I told him no, to which he (jokingly?) replied that I was “selfish.”

Abby, the idea of eating meat is gross to me now. The reason I stopped eating it in the first place is my ethical opposition to how it’s produced, and I would not want to compromise my ideals simply in the name of being a good hostess.

Am I “selfish”? Should I offer my friends meat if that is what they prefer? I’d appreciate your input.

— Where’s the Beef? in Houston Dear W.T.B.: A gracious guest does not criticize what his or her hosts serve. Your friends are aware that you are a vegetarian and why. As long as you make sure they don’t go hungry, you are not obligated to serve guests flesh of anything that doesn’t come from the ground, a bush or a tree. And you can say I said so.

Dear Abby: I am a sophomore in high school who has the responsibility of helping my mother raise four boys and a baby girl until their mothers (my sisters) are able to take care of them.

Instead of being able to attend a football game or go to the mall with friends, I spend half my time at school and the other half baby-sitting. The only “joy” I feel is knowing the kids are safe in my capable hands.

I have been around babies all my life, and I’m reaching the breaking point. I’m worried about my future after high

— Teenage Foster Mom/Aunt Dear Teenage Foster Mom/Aunt: By completing your education.

For you, freedom lies in getting a college education or learning a trade that will get you out and on your own. You should not have been saddled with the responsibility of raising the children your irresponsible sisters brought into this world. Learn from their example, and be sure that the only pregnancies you have are those that have been planned and prepared for, and you will have the freedom and the future for which you are longing.

Dear Abby: I’m seeing this guy, “Jerry,” who is an amazing person. Both of us are divorced single parents. I’m attracted to him — but I’m not sure if there is passion. My question is, do I choose security and a life that I want, or the passion that fuels romantic fire?

— Searching in Columbia, S.C. Dear Searching: The problem with the “passion that fuels romantic fire” is that it’s so intense at the beginning that it usually can’t sustain itself. Was your first marriage fueled by it? If so, this time around seriously consider marriage to an “amazing person” to whom you say you are attracted, and who can provide a stable and secure future for you and your children. These qualities can form the basis of lasting and rewarding partnership.

LOS ANGELES — “What Not to Wear,” which began its eighth season Friday night on TLC, is the most hale of makeover shows, and also, in the spiritual sense, the most healthy. Its first message is this: There are no ugly women in the world, only ugly clothes, and those can easily be changed. Its second is that by changing your clothes, you can change yourself.

“I was preoccupied even in high school with the concept of self and identity,” host Stacy London said recently from New York, where the show is based, and where she majored in German philosophy and literature at Vassar, a little while back. “But it took until I got to ‘What Not to Wear’ to marry all the things I’d learned in my life with style.”

Neither she nor co-host Clinton Kelly realized at first what they were onto: “It took me a few years,” said Kelly, also by phone, “to understand that this wasn’t just about wearing a pair of darkwashed jeans; it’s about having the confidence to achieve your goals. I really believe that if you spend your life in elastic waistbands and hoodies and cross trainers worn as casual footwear you’re not telling the world you’re important, you’re not telling the world you’re paying attention; you’re saying ignore me.”

“We reveal people’s potential every single time we do a show,” London said. “The clothes are symbolic, in the sense that it is about taking control of one’s image, and when a lot of these contributors leave the show, they take control of other aspects of their life.” But, she says, “it’s also about self-acceptance.

I don’t care if there are parts of your body that you love or you hate, you have to take

the emotionality out of that. The minute you can get over the idea that you are going to dress in a way that makes you look like another person and accept the person that you are, then you become your own frame of reference and standard of beauty, and that’s when you start to get great personal style.”

Most every episode begins as an intervention and ends as a celebration, each attended by family and friends; in between comes a kind of ritual process in which the subject — “the contributor,”

off, and inner and outer selves come into new alignment.

These moments are often moving, but never, as is the case with most big-network makeover shows, steeped in sentiment — and are the more moving for it. This has everything to do with Kelly and London being clear-eyed, affectionately sharptongued guides and observers, who will express their impatience with a subject as readily as their approval. And even as the show — whose season opener featured the rare celebrity contributor, Mindy Cohn, who was Natalie on “The Facts of Life” — is about freedom through fashion, it is also about freedom from fashion.

“I think the American woman has been sold a bill of goods,” said Kelly, who says he avoids pop culture nowadays, largely for the way it “demeans women.”

At Marie Claire, where he once worked as an editor, he pitched a story called “What Makes Me Different, Makes Me Beautiful,” and later watched a woman read it on a bus. “Her nose was buried in it,” he recalled, “and I remember thinking, this story is what I should be doing with my life. I didn’t know exactly that that would turn out to be ‘What Not to Wear.’”

Carrie Underwood arrives at the 37th Annual American Music Awards in Los Angeles in 2009. The “American Idol” winner has had 10 No. 1 country singles — a record matched only by Reba McEntire.

Carrie Underwood an enduring ‘Idol’

By Steve Knopper Newsday

After Carrie Underwood finished belting Heart’s power ballad “Alone” in the 2005 season of “American Idol,” judge Simon Cowell declared she’d be the show’s best-selling artist ever.

And she hadn’t even won the contest yet.

Today, that prediction seems anticlimactic — Underwood is not only the best-selling but the most consistent “Idol” winner, a savvy career woman with a strong connection to her country-music audience and a flair for tamping down drama. Despite her somewhat stormy history with celebrity boyfriends (remember NFL star Tony Romo and Chace Crawford of “Gossip Girl”?) and a third album, 2009’s “Play On,” which didn’t have quite the same energy of her previous two, Underwood is steady where her fellow “Idol” winners flame out (Fantasia), bounce between highs and lows (Kelly Clarkson) or fade away (Ruben Studdard, Taylor Hicks).

Here’s a snapshot of the 27year-old’s career, and how it ranks among “Idol” winners.

Album sales Underwood’s “Some Hearts” album from 2005 has sold 7 million copies, according to Nielsen SoundScan, a record for “American Idol” debuts that is unlikely to be surpassed, given the dramatic drop in overall music sales over the past five years. By contrast, Clarkson’s 2003 album, “Thankful,” sold 2.7 million; Fantasia’s “Free Yourself” in 2004 and Studdard’s “Soulful” in 2003 sold 1.8 million apiece. Clarkson’s second album, “Breakaway” — the one with “Since U Been Gone,” the best post-“Idol” song ever — is at more than 6 million.

Rank: First

Hit songs Beginning with 2005’s “Inside Your Heaven,” Underwood’s run of hits is not only unprecedented for “Idol” alumni, it’s a record on the country charts as well. She’s tied with Reba McEntire with 10 No. 1 singles for most ever. And her quality control is unmatched, especially on her first album.

“Some Hearts” is power pop disguised in an Oklahoma twang, happily borrowing half a line (“some hearts just get lucky sometime”) from Tom Petty’s “Even the Losers”; and “Jesus, Take the Wheel” is a rare new, nontreacly

gospel classic, complete with a great story (about a desperate mom driving with a baby in the backseat).

Rank: First. Although nobody beats Clarkson’s “Since U Been Gone.”

Consistency Underwood followed up “Some Hearts” with 2007’s “Carnival Ride,” a step forward in power and sophistication, especially the soaring rocker “Last Name.” On last year’s “Play On,” she sings with more confidence than ever. But she leans way too hard on slick tearjerkers, like the fiddle-and-piano “Someday When I Stop Loving You” and “Temporary Home.”

Still, the only other “Idol” veteran with more than one good album is Clarkson, who has two (her 2007 “art” album, “My December,” should have stayed in the vault).

Rank: First

Singing ability “American Idol” judges have never picked a bad singer, technically speaking, and Underwood’s voice, feathery on ballads like “I Told You So” and leathery on such rockers as “We’re Young and Beautiful,” is especially impressive because it fits perfectly in the context of country music.

Clarkson’s underrated voice fits pop songs in the same way Underwood fits country, and while Fantasia and Studdard can do more things with their voices, they haven’t shown it yet on record.

Rank: Fourth

Public image The very private Underwood has a beauty-next-door quality, telling interviewers homey little details like a fondness for grocery shopping, keeping a food diary to lose weight and struggling with panic attacks. Her recent marriage to Mike Fisher, of the NHL’s Ottawa Senators, is similarly lowkey. She seems to have left her stormy celebrity relationships behind, after fans intimated that her ex-boyfriend, Dallas Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo, fumbled in the 2007 playoffs because he was over-obsessed with her. Underwood handled the breakup just right, insisting to Esquire that her song “Cowboy Cassanova” is not about him: “I would never immortalize a guy that did me wrong. I would never give him that much credit.”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Nov. 1, 2010: This year, you will get what you want.

The key to your success will be a strong group of supporters who help you back up when you are down. You have unusual allure and magnetism.

If you are single, you will have to work to maintain this status. So many admirers! If you are attached, your sweetie finds you unusually appealing and often goes along with your way of thinking. Honor his or her needs, and don’t trample on his or her feelings.

VIRGO remains a loyal friend.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH Sometimes tossing yourself into a project is nothing less than pure pleasure. Such is the case today.

You efficiently integrate startling new concepts and an overload of new information. Processing everything that is tossed on your plate is never easy, but you do it magnificently.

Tonight: Now, off for some fun!

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Dealing with a partner or a sequence of associates will take dipping into your storehouse of interpersonal relating techniques.

Not everyone is easygoing, nor would you want them to be. You admire fire and conviction. Tonight: So what if it is Monday night?

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Getting yourself untangled from a difficult situation could take a lot. Some of you might simply decide to wage verbal warfare.

The immediate results might be

effective, but what are the damages?

Tonight: Screen your calls. Take some much-needed personal time.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH How you deal with another person and the decisions you make could be colored by a personal matter.

You want active communication.

Thus you might start a fight or a very animated discussion. Consider taking a class in communicating instead.

Tonight: Flow with the moment.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Where others fuss and do all they can to maintain or trim their budget, you tap into your ingenuity. Others will be thrilled by the even better idea that pops out of creative brainstorming. Honor your financial needs. Tonight: Acting as if it is still the weekend.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHHH You can be overly concerned about details, losing sight of the concept you are working with. It is part of the liability of Virgo’s penchant for details. Today, you could choose to do both simultaneously.

Why not give it a shot? Tonight: Whatever makes you smile.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH You feel an uneasiness that might be difficult to identify. You are unlikely to say anything as you attempt to work through certain issues. The wise Libra will go within and identify the problem before taking any action. Tonight: You might want to chat with a dear friend.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Zero in on what you feel is significant in a meeting. Perhaps shifting others to your type of thinking could be a powerful tool. Others

might express much more of what they are thinking when they can walk in your shoes. Tonight: A meeting could evolve into a happening.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You are proud of your leadership abilities. When you take a stand, many respond. They often could be very challenging — not so much in disagreement, but challenging your commitment.

Good will starts to flow back and forth. Tonight: In the limelight.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Walk away from conventional thinking. At the same time, dump restrictions you place on your thought process. You want to open up all doors. A friend might be very powerful, identifying many of your preconceived and restrictive thoughts.

Tonight: Go where you can relax.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH You value friendship, but what happens when a loved one becomes demanding? Your commitment is tested. For some of you, this situation could be intolerable. Relax and think of this person as a friend in need.

Suddenly, relating becomes easier.

Tonight: A close encounter.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You have some very strong ideas that often isolate you from others. Right now, let boundaries melt as you walk with others through their fields of life.

You will gain a new respect and understanding for the people you do this exercise with. Tonight: Go with another person’s plans. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Hawks Continued from C1 Over the last 30 years, HawkWatch has counted an estimated 20 million hawks and banded 125,000 of them, an essential task in understanding and protecting the birds. They were the first to identify three flyways in the American West that follow a pattern similar to flyways in the East where migrating hawks navigate along coastlines and mountain ridges featuring strong thermal updrafts.

Hawks today face many threats, said Allen Fish, director of the Golden Gate Raptor Observatory on the Marin headlands north of San Francisco, which makes the need to count and band them more important than ever. For example, American kestrels are in sharp decline, while there is a potential decrease in golden eagles.

As more giant wind farms are erected, an increasing number of hawks are slashed and killed by turbine blades. Oil and gas exploration is fragmenting many hawk habitats. Urban-suburban growth, pesticides, herbicides, electricity lines and climate change are other stressors, he said.

The only way to understand what is happening to hawks is to collect data over many decades, banding as many birds as can be captured, said James Dawson, a hawk biologist with 30 years of field experience and curator of

House Continued from C1 The goal, the couple said, is not only to build a house for themselves, but to get the research and legwork done so others can more easily incorporate different green elements in future projects.

“We’ve paid for a lot of things other people won’t have to,” Elliott said.

The project team is keeping track of the different materials, he said, and plans to share them with others — either for free or for a subscription fee designed to recoup some of the money spent researching the options. So far, the team has spent more than $34,000 researching how the project can meet Living Building Challenge and Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design certifications.

The project also is a way to re-examine how people build houses, he said. When it takes so much effort to find nontoxic materials, Elliott said, it makes him question what people are

Unifi Continued from C1 “What differentiates our system from others on the market is we don’t force the medical practitioners to do things differently from the way they do it today,” Barnes said. “Basically, it’s the same forms, only they are electronic instead of paper.”

He said electronic patient charts in the Unifi-Med system have multiple tab pages, including one for patient information, another for doctors’ notes, one for X-ray and test results, as well as tabs for scheduling appointments and follow-ups, patient referral information, and insurance and billing forms that are automatically generated when information is input on the forms.

The Barneses have a long history in the computer industry, dating back to 1972, when they started out working in data processing for utility companies in the days when data had to be recorded on IBM cards to be entered into mainframe computers the size of a refrigerator. With nearly 31 years of experience in the computer industry, they saw an opportunity in Internet-based electronic medical records.

Web-based system Because it’s a Web-based system, Barnes said there’s no need for doctors to store patient records or billing information in filing rooms or on computer hard drives in their offices.

“The advantage of our system is there’s no internal computer hardware needed, and there’s no software to buy or install, no IT support required to learn how to run it,” Barnes said. “Since it is all on the Internet, our clients never have to worry about updating their software, because we make one change to our code and it instantly makes the change to the service used by doctors across the country.”

Medical records are stored on computer servers located in secured data centers, he said.

“These are the supermodels of the raptor world — tall and thin,” says Mandy Weston, as she releases a northern harrier hawk in the Manzano Mountains of New Mexico. wildlife at the High Desert Museum here in Bend.

Hawks, eagles and other birds of prey are tricky to catch, however. The term “eagle-eyed” did not come out of nowhere. Mechanical lures that

appear overwhelmingly realistic to human eyes are unconvincing to hawk eyes, Fish said.

His organization spent 17 years trying to perfect such lures but suspended the effort when researchers realized how easily

hawks see the deception.

Hawks see eight to 10 times better than we humans, Fish said. They have four foveas (the part of the eye that sees detail) instead of our two, the ability to detect reflected ultraviolet light

exposed to each day.

“Sometimes it’s the extremes you have to go to, to point out the insanity,” Elliott said, talking about the potentially hazardous materials people live with every day in an average home.

And going to those extremes can cause things to take longer than expected.

“The biggest challenge is going into the unknown, with a brandnew program,” said Al Tozer, owner of Tozer Design Studio and the project’s lead designer.

So far, the Living Building Challenge has only certified two commercial buildings and the one residence, which is located in British Columbia.

ents on the Living Building’s “red list,” which could harm the environment or residents’ health. The Living Building Challenge also sets limits on where the materials can come from, to emphasize buying locally and to reduce the impacts associated with transporting products long distances.

For example, the project is limited to Forest Stewardship Council-certified wood and wood products, Tozer said. That’s simple enough for some uses, since the Warm Springs mill produces lumber that qualifies.

But architectural plans usually involve engineered lumber made of wood pieces glued together, which is both light and strong.

Tozer can’t find any Forest Stewardship Council-approved versions of that engineered lumber.

So the designers have to go through the whole house and adjust areas where they would normally use the engineered wood, putting in additional support or substituting different products.

“Instead, we have to use real wood, and we have to ask (the wood) to do things that often-

times we don’t ask it to do,” he said. “We’re not only finding the materials, we’re designing around the materials. So that definitely takes more time.”

In some cases, it takes time because the designers are working with the Living Building Challenge to determine which materials are acceptable.

For instance, the team wants to use a type of plaster called American Clay for the interior walls — but it comes from too far away, according to Living Building Challenge standards, Tozer said.

But the team is working with the Living Building Challenge staff in Seattle to prove the material has other benefits that cannot be found locally, and should be an acceptable option.

“It’s not just picking a material,” Tozer said. “We need to prove its worthiness to the Living Building Challenge administration.”

Finding the right materials The building materials category continues to cause delays and challenges for the Bend team.

Living Building participants have to research every material used in construction, from beams to flooring to faucets, and ensure they don’t contain any ingredi-

The company has redundant storage capacity at four secure data centers across the United States to ensure the information is never lost or unavailable due to a power outage or natural disaster, Barnes said.

“All four of our data centers are on different power grids, so if we lose power at one data center, three others are still up and running,” Barnes said.

The medical information is encrypted during transmission and is protected by the same security measures used by banks, he said.

“To access medical records, doctors and patients are required to type in their user ID and secret password,” Barnes said.

Patients will receive login instructions for the Web-based Unifi-Med when they go in for a doctor’s appointment. By accessing the patient portal, patients look online at their medical records, and read the doctor’s notes and instructions, test results and other details.

Barnes said the system also makes it easier for primary care doctors to share patient records with specialists, hospitals and other medical care providers.

“Until recently, the only way to get a document out of a doctor’s office or hospital was to print it out, copy it and fax or hand-deliver it,” Barnes said. “With our Web-based system, a doctor can get a call in the middle of the night, look up his patient’s medical record on his laptop or smart phone, and send it to the hospital with the push of a button.”

“It is accessible anytime, anywhere, as long as you have an Internet connection, user ID and password,” said Brenda Barnes.

Another advantage of the Web-based system is that a doctor in Bend can see a patient in Burns via a webcam,” she said, adding that a primary care physician also can bring in a specialist for consultation with a patient using a webcam and shared electronic patient medical records.

“We have doctors who have done that,” she said.

The Web-based electronic medical records and webcam

options also are advantageous for medical emergencies, such as a car wreck where the patient is being flown to a trauma center, because images and medical records can be transmitted to emergency room doctors while the patient is en route, she added.

Used at KIDS Center Since the company was founded in 2006 by Timothy McGinnis, Brenda Barnes said Unifi has signed up about 100 doctors offices and other medical facilities and treatment centers across the country, including the KIDS Center in Bend.

“Unifi is the electronic medical records system we use. We have multiple prices of information, and we found Unifi is a vast system that allows us to hold a number of different types of information in one place,” said Shelly Smith, executive director of the KIDS Center.

“We use it for our medical exams, for our work with parents of abused children, for tracking counseling and therapy,” Smith said. “We can go into that system and drill in on the prices we need to see. Everything is there. It is a wonderful way to keep everything in one place,” Smith said.

“It has been a wonderful asset.”

Less than 20 percent of doctors, hospitals and other medical care providers have made the switch to electronic medical records in the U.S., according to the Barneses. But to encourage physicians to make the change sooner, the Obama administration authorized stimulus grants available beginning Jan. 1 to reimburse up to $18,000 for conversion costs incurred during the first 90 days, she said.

“It’s a 90-day reporting period, so you could start Jan. 1 and go to March 31, or you could start Jan. 15 and go to April 15 for the reporting period, and 45 days after that you’d get an $18,000 payment,” Brenda Barnes said.

“The government wants you to prove you are electronically recording patient information.

The $18,000 is to defray the cost

‘Much more complicated’ Most residential projects have

of putting an electronic system in use,” she said.

The cost of the Unifi-Med service ranges from around $400 per month to $1,000 per month, depending on the number of patients, number of computers and functions a medical practice has, Barnes said.

The government also has a meaningful use requirement, and to be eligible for the stimulus pay-

and greatly accelerated speed of visual processing. When a hawk dives at a mechanical lure, he said, it pulls up 30 to 50 feet before the target as if to say, “there’s something wrong here.”

The only way to catch hawks is to use live birds as lures, Fish said. It’s the only method trappers use. So when the juvenile harrier approached the Manzano Mountains last week, two trappers concealed in a blind 50 yards below the lookout had their lures and nets ready.

The live pigeons, doves and starlings that are used to attract hawks are outfitted in full body suits made of leather or Kevlar for protection. With only their heads, wings and feet exposed, the birds stand near the traps or are tossed up to 20 feet in the air, their feet securely attached to fishing lines manipulated from the blind.

At the Manzano site, three kinds of nets were arrayed on a spacious apron of ground in front of the blind. A mist net, made of nylon with a large mesh and multiple compartments to catch birds that fly into it, was suspended, like a volleyball net, between two poles.

A dho-gaza net, with a smaller nylon mesh, was also affixed to two poles, but set to collapse when a hawk flew into it. A remotely triggered bow net, a hooplike device with a spring mechanism, lay on the ground.

Weston described what happened next (HawkWatch would

not allow a reporter to observe the trappers working): When a hawk that her colleague Tim Hanks had identified flew overhead and spotted a pigeon waddling on the ground, the trappers pulled on the line attached to the pigeon to jiggle it, hoping it would pass for a small mammal, the favored prey of harriers.

When the hawk struck, Weston said, it entangled itself in the mist net before it could reach the pigeon. In the standard routine for all trapped birds, it was measured, weighed, checked for fat deposits under its wing and inspected for parasites. The harrier was healthy, Weston said, displaying the bird.

The trappers had fixed a metal band to the harrier’s leg, assigning it an identity should it be recaptured elsewhere or found dead. Weston let it go amid a flurry of powerful wing beats.

During this fall season, Aug. 27 to Nov. 5, the hawk team has been observing between 30 and 200 hawks a day, capturing and banding about 10 percent of the migrants. The most common species have been sharp-shinned hawks, Cooper’s hawks, red-tailed hawks, American kestrels, golden eagles, northern harriers and Swainson’s hawks.

The pigeon, unharmed, was soon able to take the rest of the day off. Like other lure birds, it has an enviable schedule, to limit job stress: 60 to 90 minutes every other day.

their ups and downs in the design phase, said M.L. Vidas, owner of Sustainable Design Services of Bend and the team’s sustainability consultant. Elliott and Scott’s house is like others, she said.

“This looks like it’s just a house, it’s going to have walls and a roof, and windows and doors and rooms,” Vidas said.

“But it is so different ... it is much more complicated than it first appears — and complex.”

Designing the roof for a typical house, for example, involves asking a number of questions, she said, like whether the roofing material works, whether the owners can afford it, and whether they like its appearance.

But add in the Living Building Challenge, and the list of questions grows, Vidas said. Because all the rainwater will be collected for household use, planners have to verify it’s safe to drink water that flows off roofing material.

And the material has to be local, as well as Earth-friendly.

The implications of each decision have to be considered, she said.

For instance, Elliott and Scott plan to store all of their water in a cistern — but sometimes, if water is stored for too long, it can taste funny, even if it meets all health standards, Vidas said.

One option would be to install pumps to circulate and aerate the water — but that takes energy, which is in short supply since the house is designed to run solely on solar and wind power.

“If we make that decision without thinking about the consequences on the energy side ... all of a sudden, you’ve blown your energy budget without even being conscious of it,” Vidas said.

But it’s good to know that other projects have met the Living Building Challenge standards, she said, even if the number is still small.

“It’s inspiring knowing other teams have succeeded,” she said.

“It’s not impossible.”

Cyclists wait for the start of the Ride for the Roses last month in Austin, Texas. Bend’s Steve Apfelbaum can be seen in the front of the crowd, on the left side, in a yellow and black jersey.

A member of The Bulletin’s sports staff since 2005, Clark has written a weekly cycling column since 2007. She is an Oregon native, a 10year Bend resident and an avid cyclist.

ot many amateur cyclists can say they’ve had the opportunity to chase after Lance Armstrong in a bike ride.

Steve Apfelbaum, of Bend, got a priority front-row starting position with his wife, Carol Osgood, recently at the Ride for the Roses, an annual October bike ride in Austin, Texas, to benefit Armstrong’s Livestrong Foundation.

Armstrong, along with members of his team, Team RadioShack, were given a threeminute head start on the rest of the field of 3,100 riders. Over the next 90 miles, Apfelbaum, 64, made it his aim to track down the seven-time Tour de France winner and noted cancer survivor. Apfelbaum never caught the cycling icon, but the Bend rider still has plenty to be proud of — surviving cancer, and joining with thousands of other cyclists to ride, raise money and heighten awareness in defiance of the disease.

he high school soccer postseason looks to be a busy one for Central Oregon teams.

Thirteen area squads are scheduled to compete in state play-in games this week, and the Oregon School Activities Association’s state postseason starts on Saturday for Class 6A schools and on Tuesday, Nov. 9, for all other classifications.

Five area teams won league titles this season, and with the OSAA’s new postseason format — teams will be seeded in the state playoffs based on OSAA power rankings — multiple Central Oregon squads could have home-field advantage for much of the postseason.

In Class 5A, Mountain View won the Intermountain Conference boys championship, while Summit finished first in the IMC girls standings. Sisters claimed both the boys and girls Class 4A Sky-Em League titles this year, and Madras took the 4A Tri-Valley Conference boys crown.

The Summit girls and the Madras boys are poised to benefit the most from the OSAA’s new seeding system for the postseason.

The Storm (10-2-1 overall) are the top-ranked team in the 5A girls soccer power rankings, which would assure them home-field advantage in the playoffs until the state finals. The White Buffaloes (10-2) are in a similar position as 4A’s top-ranked boys soccer team.

While playing at home is almost always an advantage, the effect may be even more pronounced for teams on this side of the Cascades. Teams from the Portland, Salem and Eugene metro areas rarely have to travel more than an hour for games, let alone go over a mountain pass to play in Central Oregon weather conditions that can be rather harsh in November.

(Sixteen-team championships brackets will include two groups of eight in which a No. 1 seed plays a No. 8 seed in the first round, a No. 2 plays a No. 7, and so on. Class 6A’s 32-team bracket will be made up of four groups of eight.)

The new system, though, is not expected to benefit all Central Oregon teams. The Sisters boys, who won the Sky-Em League with a 61-1 record, curiously are ranked only 29th out of 43 4A teams by the OSAA power rankings.

MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL: WORLD SERIES

Oregon, Auburn switch No. 1, 2 positions in BCS

Giants on brink of Series crown

By Ben Walker The Associated Press

By Ralph D. Russo The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Oregon and Auburn swapped spots atop the BCS standings and Boise State was passed again, this time by TCU. The Ducks (8-0) moved into first place for the first time this season, which is interesting but not necessarily important.

Auburn (9-0) grabbed the top spot last week, but Oregon caught up after beating Southern California 53-32, leaving the Tigers in second place.

The top two teams in the final BCS standings on Dec. 5 play in the championship game Jan. 10 in Glendale, Ariz.

Right now, the Ducks and Tigers are in control of the title race.

“They’re fighting over what color uniform to wear in the championship game,” BCS analyst Jerry Palm said.

Oregon is No. 1 in the two polls used in the standings and No. 2 according to the computer ratings. Auburn is first according to the computers and No. 2 among the voters of the Harris and coaches polls.

S B Tennis • Clijsters wins WTA Championships title: U.S. Open champion Kim Clijsters defeated top-ranked Caroline Wozniacki 6-3, 5-7, 6-3 to win the WTA Championships final on Sunday in Doha, Qatar. Clijsters, who won the title in 2002 and 2003, used a powerful forehand and her vast experience to take control against the 20-year-old Dane.

After winning the first set, Clijsters went up 4-1 in the second but Wozniacki fought back to tie the match at 5-all.

She broke Clijsters to go up 6-5 on her way to winning the set when Clijsters hit a shot long.

• Monfils serves 11 aces in title win in France: Thirdseeded Gael Monfils, of France, defeated defending champion Ivan Ljubicic, of Croatia, 6-2, 5-7, 6-1 to win the Open Sud de France on Sunday in Montpellier, France.

Monfils served 11 aces and made the most of Ljubicic’s 39 unforced errors to claim his third career title, his first since winning in Metz in 2009.

• Melzer wins third career title at ATP Vienna: Defending champion Jurgen Melzer rallied past Andreas Haider-Maurer 6-7 (10), 7-6 (4), 6-4 Sunday to win his third career title at the Bank Austria Trophy in Vienna.

The 12th-ranked Melzer held on when Haider-Maurer served for the match at 5-3 in the second set and forced a tiebreaker.

• Kukushkin wins first title at St. Petersburg Open: Mikhail Kukushkin won his first title in his first attempt, upsetting top-seeded Mikhail Youzhny 6-3, 7-6 (2) Sunday in the final of the St. Petersburg Open in St. Petersburg, Russia. Kukushkin’s previous best result was a semifinal appearance in Moscow last season, where he lost to eventual champion Youzhny in straight sets.

Baseball • Game 3 earns second-lowest rating for World Series: Game 3 earned the second-lowest television rating for a World Series game. The Texas Rangers’ 4-2 win over the San Francisco Giants on Saturday night on Fox drew a 6.7 rating and 13 share, beating only the 6.1 for Game 3 of the 2008 Phillies-Rays series. That game was delayed 91 minutes because of rain and didn’t start until after 10 p.m. on the East Coast.

Golf • Lee Westwood goes to No. 1, overtakes Woods: For the first time in more than five years, Tiger Woods is no longer golf’s No. 1 player. Lee Westwood, of England, took the top ranking Sunday after PGA champion Martin Kaymer failed to finish among the top two at the Andalucia Masters in Spain. Westwood is the first European since Nick Faldo in 1994 to be No. 1, and the 13th player to be No. 1 since the ranking system began in 1986. Woods had been No. 1 since the week before the 2005 U.S. Open, where he was runner-up.

College football • Notre Dame QB has season-ending surgery: Notre Dame quarterback Dayne Crist has undergone knee surgery and is done for the season. Coach Brian Kelly also says leading rusher Armando Allen might need hip surgery for torn cartilage and his Irish career is likely over.

Crist’s operation Sunday was to reattach a torn patellar tendon. He hurt his left knee in the first quarter of Saturday’s 28-27 loss to Tulsa.

College basketball • Iowa tells NCAA that recruits met Kutcher, Moore: The University of Iowa told the NCAA the school allowed two basketball recruits to meet celebrity Hawkeye fans Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore. Such a meeting would be a recruiting violation. The Des Moines Register reported Sunday that the recruits met the married movie stars along with two former Iowa basketball players at an Iowa-Iowa State football game in September. NCAA rules prohibit recruits from contact with individuals considered to represent a university’s athletic interests.

THE BULLETIN • Monday, November 1, 2010 D3

Saints back in playoff picture, beat Steelers New Orleans rolls to a 20-10 home victory over Pittsburgh The Associated Press NEW ORLEANS — Drew Brees shook off some hard hits and figured out Pittsburgh’s defense in time to make the defending champion New Orleans Saints look like contenders again.

Brees passed for 305 yards and two touchdowns and the Saints defeated the Steelers 20-10 on Sunday night.

Brees was 20 of 22 for 191 yards in the second half, breaking open a defensive struggle in which no team scored a touchdown through the first three quarters.

“You know it’s going to be fast and physical, and it was,” Brees said.

Brees’ first TD went to Marques Colston for 16 yards and the second went for 8 yards to Lance Moore with 2:37 left.

Leigh Torrence then intercepted Ben Roethlisberger to seal it for the Saints (5-3).

The Saints rediscovered the magic of last season a week after an embarrassing 30-17 loss at home to the scuffling Cleveland Browns.

“We have a special group,” Brees said. “I think we all knew that from the start. We just had to come out and prove it. It’s a long season. It’s a marathon.

You’re going to have your ups and downs.”

Rashard Mendenhall had the only touchdown for Pittsburgh (5-2) on a 38-yard run in the fourth quarter. Roethlisberger was 17 of 28 for 195 yards in a matchup of the past two Super Bowl champs.

The Saints struggled to run on a Steelers defense that came in ranked first in the NFL against the run and allowed New Orleans only 30 yards on the ground.

Gerald Herbert / The Associated Press

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Marques Colston (12) dives for a touchdown past Pittsburgh Steelers safety Ryan Clark (25) and cornerback Bryant McFadden (20) during the second half of Sunday’s game at the Louisiana Superdome in New Orleans.

NFL ROUNDUP Brees was sacked twice and intercepted once, giving him 11 interceptions, as many as he had all of last season.

The Saints tried some trickery, to no avail. When they switched from a field goal to a passing alignment with backup quarterback Chase Daniel in the shotgun formation, Pittsburgh called timeout, and New Orleans decided to settle for Garrett Hartley’s 31-yard field goal to tie the game at 3.

In the third quarter, right tackle Zach Strief, who had reported as an eligible receiver, was wide open in the end zone, but was backpedaling and unable to jump high enough to snag a short pass Brees lobbed over his head.

Again, New Orleans had to settle for a field goal to go up 6-3.

Late in the third quarter, the Saints ran a reverse in which

it appeared Colston was supposed to pass. He bobbled the exchange, however, and decided to run with it for a minimal gain.

The receiver redeemed himself later on that drive when he hauled in a 16-yard touchdown, running for the last few yards and reaching to get the ball over the pylon before he was bumped out of bounds.

The play capped a 10-play, 59yard drive for the game’s first touchdown, giving New Orleans a 13-3 lead.

Pittsburgh had only one possession in the third quarter, which ended when cornerback Malcolm Jenkins broke up a fourth-and-4 pass from the New Orleans 40.

But after New Orleans went ahead by 10 early in the fourth, Pittsburgh’s offense seemed to find its rhythm. The Steelers went 68 yards in only four plays to make it 13-10, capped by Mendenhall’s 38-yard scoring run in

which he bolted through a huge hole on the right side, cut to the sideline and outran everyone to the end zone.

In other games on Sunday: Patriots . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 28 Vikings . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 18 FOXBOROUGH, Mass. — Tom Brady outscrambled Brett Favre, then kept the ball away from Tarvaris Jackson when Favre was knocked out of the game, and New England held on to beat Minnesota. Brady scrambled free to find Brandon Tate breaking free behind the defense for a 65-yard touchdown to give the Patriots the lead in the third quarter. BenJarvus Green-Ellis’ first touchdown, a 13-yard run, made it 21-10.

Packers. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 9 Jets . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 0 EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Mason Crosby kicked three field goals for Green Bay, and that was all the Packers needed to beat the rested but sloppy Jets.

Mark Sanchez and the Jets’ of-

fense couldn’t get much of anything going as New York, which entered tied for the league’s best record, had its five-game winning streak end.

49ers . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 24 Broncos . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16 WEMBLEY, England — Backup Troy Smith found his range in the fourth quarter to lead San Francisco in the NFL’s fourth regular-season game in London.

In his first start as a 49er, Smith had a 28-yard touchdown pass to Michael Crabtree with 7:23 left to help San Francisco (2-6) take a 17-10 lead. Frank Gore scored another with 3:47 to go, running in from the 3.

Chargers. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 33 Titans . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25 SAN DIEGO — Philip Rivers threw a go-ahead, 48-yard touchdown pass to Antonio Gates midway through the third quarter to lead San Diego over Tennessee, which lost quarterback Vince Young to another injury. San Diego (3-5) snapped a three-game losing streak and won its eighth straight game against the Titans dating to 1993. The Titans (5-3) had their three-game winning streak snapped.

Buccaneers . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 38 Cardinals . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 35 GLENDALE, Ariz. — Aqib Talib intercepted two passes, returning one 45 yards for a touchdown and saving the game with the other, and Tampa Bay rallied from a fourth-quarter deficit for the fourth time this season. The Bucs (5-2) won their fifth straight on the road dating to last season and moved into a tie with idle Atlanta for first in the NFC South.

Rams. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 20 Panthers . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10 ST. LOUIS — Sam Bradford threw two touchdown passes and the St. Louis defense forced four Carolina turnovers. Bradford threw a 2-yard scoring pass to Danny Amendola in the second quarter and a 23-yard touchdown pass to Daniel Fells in the fourth as the Rams — an NFLworst 1-15 last season — reached the midway point at 4-4.

Dolphins . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 22 Bengals. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .14 CINCINNATI — Dan Carpen-

ter kicked five field goals for the second straight game, and Miami made them stand up in keeping its record perfect on the road.

The Bengals (2-5) failed to get a first down in the third quarter and were shut out in the second half. Their final chance ended with Carson Palmer’s interception with 2:43 to go.

Jaguars. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 35 Cowboys. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .17 ARLINGTON, Texas — David Garrard and the Jaguars became the latest to take advantage of the crumbling Cowboys.

Garrard tied a club record with four touchdown passes and ran for another while narrowly missing a perfect quarterback rating, leading the Jaguars to a 35-17 victory over Dallas.

Chiefs . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .13 Bills . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 10 KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Ryan Succop kicked a 35-yard field goal as time expired in overtime to lift Kansas City over winless Buffalo.

Succop had a chance to win the game with 3:38 to go in OT, but his 39-yard attempt with 3:38 to go hooked left at the last instant.

Lions . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 37 Redskins . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 25 DETROIT — Matthew Stafford threw four touchdown passes, including a 10-yarder to Calvin Johnson with 3:12 left, and the Lions (2-5) went on to score nine points in a 14-second span for their second win of the season.

The Redskins (4-4) turned the ball over on downs after Johnson’s career-high third score.

Washington coach Mike Shanahan then put Rex Grossman in for an apparently healthy Donovan McNabb, and he fumbled on his first play with Ndamukong Suh returning it for a TD. Raiders . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 33 Seahawks. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 OAKLAND, Calif. — Jason Campbell threw for 310 yards and two touchdowns, and Oakland’s defense delivered one of its best performance in years to help the Raiders even their record at the midpoint of the season. Darren McFadden ran for 111 yards as the Raiders (4-4) reached the .500 mark this late in the season for the first time since 2002.

D4 Monday, November 1, 2010 • THE BULLETIN

Giants Continued from D1 And now it’s up to Cliff Lee to save the Rangers’ season in Game 5.

“With a win, I usually sleep pretty good in the playoffs, with a loss pretty shaky. Hopefully we sleep good tonight. We’ve got a big challenge tomorrow with Cliff Lee,” Huff said. “We got him last game, but you know he’s going to come out and really want to get us.”

Bumgarner and closer Brian Wilson made the Giants the first team to post two shutouts in a World Series since Baltimore threw three straight to close out the Dodgers in 1966.

“It’s certainly been pitching as advertised,” Texas manager Ron Washington said. “They’ve got good stuff.

They’ve got velocity. They can spin the baseball. They can change speeds and they keep their defense engaged.”

Huff, who grew up in the Metroplex, hit a two-run homer in the third that gave Bumgarner all the support he needed. Posey added a solo shot in the eighth — Bumgarner and Posey became the first rookie battery to start in the Series since Spec Shea and Yogi Berra for the Yankees in 1947.

Even though Bumgarner got relief help, it was a complete game for the Giants.

Andres Torres doubled twice, singled and drove in a run and Edgar Renteria also got three hits.

The gloves helped out even more.

Make it great D in Big D. Left fielder Cody Ross came up with a shoestring catch, second baseman Freddy Sanchez made a leaping grab and Posey threw out Josh Hamilton trying to steal. Bumgarner helped himself, too, knocking down Hamilton’s scorcher up the middle.

The father-and-son team of George H.W. Bush and George W. Bush threw out the ceremonial first ball in what Major League Baseball said was the first time two former presidents attended a World Series game.

The elder Bush’s wife, Barbara, even kept score from her front-row seat next to the Texas dugout. There wasn’t much to write down — not on the Texas side, anyway.

Bumgarner didn’t permit a runner past first base until the seventh. Facing his only jam, the lefty retired Ian Kinsler on a fly ball to strand two runners and preserve a 3-0 lead.

Bumgarner struck out Vladimir Guerrero three times, the first time the star Texas designated hitter had done that this season.

Team percentages are derived by dividing a team’s actual voting points by a maximum 2850 possible points in the Harris Interactive Poll and 1475 possible points in the USA Today Coaches Poll.

Six computer rankings are used to determine the overall computer component. The highest and lowest ranking for each team is dropped, and the remaining four are added and divided to produce a Computer Rankings Percentage. The six computer ranking providers are Anderson & Hester, Richard Billingsley, Colley Matrix, Kenneth Massey, Jeff Sagarin, and Peter Wolfe. Each computer ranking accounts for schedule strength in its formula.

BCS Continued from D1 The other three unbeaten teams, TCU (9-0), Boise State (7-0) and Utah (8-0), are next in the standings, but they’ll need Oregon or Auburn to lose to even have a shot at playing for the national championship.

Boise State had been No. 3 for two weeks, but as the Broncos beat up on the soft part of their schedule, others are catching up — as expected. TCU jumped from fourth to third.

Utah, which plays TCU on Saturday, is fifth. Alabama is the highest rated one-loss team in sixth.

With a game against rival Auburn to end the regular season and a possible Southeastern Conference title game, the defending national champion Crimson Tide (7-1) are definitely alive to repeat.

What are the chances the Tide returns to the national title game if it wins out?

“I don’t think it’s a slam dunk,” Palm said. “If forced to make a prediction now, I’d guess Alabama would go over undefeated Boise State or TCU, but I’m not operating under the assumption that would happen.”

Voters are giving more support than ever before to Boise State and TCU, and both are benefiting from some good non-conference victories that help their computer ratings. Those two factors could keep ‘Bama at bay, Palm said.

Still, the Broncos, Horned Frogs and Utes better watch their backs while they’re keeping an eye on each other.

Boise State beat Louisiana Tech 49-20 on Tuesday. Utah beat Air Force 28-23, and TCU easily handled UNLV 48-6 on Saturday. Those results didn’t necessarily swing things toward the Horned Frogs as much as Oregon and Auburn’s perfor-

Jazz beat Thunder for first win The Associated Press

Former Blazer star, coach Maurice Lucas dead at 58 PORTLAND — Maurice Lucas, the fierce power forward known as “The Enforcer” who helped lead the Portland Trail Blazers to the 1977 NBA title, has died after a long fight with bladder cancer. He was 58.

Lucas died Sunday at his home in Portland, the team said.

Lucas, whose No. 20 was retired by the Blazers in 1988, joined Portland in the 1976 ABA dispersal draft and led the 1976-77 championship team in scoring with a 20.2 average. He also averaged 11.2 rebounds that season.

At public appearances, fans often greeted Lucas with cries of “Luuuuuuke!” His competitive demeanor on the court was in contrast to his gentle nature off it.

He served as an assistant coach with the Blazers for six seasons, but last year he left the team to undergo surgery before suffering a setback last November. He did not return to coaching this season.

Lucas is survived by wife Pamela, sons David and Maurice II and daughter Kristin.

mances did.

After both won convincingly on the road, the Ducks and Tigers gained support in the polls and Boise State slid from second to third. The Broncos’ computer rating still lags behind in seventh.

Meanwhile, TCU’s No. 4 ranking in each poll, plus a third-place rating in the computers, added up to the Horned Frogs moving up.

The Broncos, Horned Frogs and Utes are all trying to become the first team from a non-automatic qualifying conference to reach the BCS title game.

TCU at Utah will likely eliminate one of those Mountain West Conference teams from BCS contention all together.

Boise State’s toughest tests the rest of the way in the Western Athletic Conference should come from No. 25 Nevada (7-1), Hawaii (7-2) and Fresno State (5-2). One loss would finish the Broncos’ BCS hopes.

The real race between the non-automatic qualifiers might be for that so-called BCS Buster bid — just like last season.

One, and only one, of those teams can grab an automatic BCS bid by finishing in the top 12 in the final BCS standings. Last year, TCU was highest rated and earned an automatic bid, but Boise State became the first team from a league without automatic entry to receive an at-large berth to one of the five big-money bowl games.

The Broncos and Horned Frogs were matched up in the Fiesta Bowl and Boise State won the battle of unbeatens in Arizona.

A similar scenario could play out this season with the winner of TCU-Utah or Boise State getting an automatic BCS bid and the other hoping to receive an at-large invite. But that invite is far from a guarantee when big-name teams such as Wisconsin, Ohio State, Nebraska and Oklahoma could also be available to bowl organizers.

NBA ROUNDUP

OKLAHOMA CITY — After a perfect preseason, Utah’s slow start in the games that count was magnified.

That’s what happens with a franchise that hasn’t lost three straight games to start the season in three decades — a streak that’s still alive after the Jazz got double-doubles from Paul Millsap, Deron Williams and Al Jefferson and beat the Oklahoma City Thunder 120-99 on Sunday night.

Millsap had 30 points and 16 rebounds, Jefferson added 23 points and 10 rebounds and Williams directed the show before finishing with 16 points and 15 assists as Utah broke into the win column after an 0-2 start.

“People said a lot about our team, but tonight we proved otherwise,” Millsap said. “We proved that we could play defense, we proved that we could move the ball like we’re supposed to, we proved that we can make shots.”

The Jazz haven’t started 0-3 since the 1979-80 season, when they lost four in a row and 17 of 19 in the franchise’s first year in Utah.

Instead, they snapped Oklahoma City’s season opening two-game win streak behind a strong push in the middle of the game when they outscored the Thunder 40-13.

“We knew we could play a lot better offensively and defensively. That’s why I said we weren’t worried,” Williams said. “Upset because we’re losing, but we weren’t worried.

“We knew we could play a lot better on both ends. We came out and did that.”

Kevin Durant led Oklahoma City with 28 points but also had six of the team’s 14 turnovers. Russell Westbrook scored 22 to go with four steals.

AUTO RACING ROUNDUP

C B

Bowyer edges Harvick for victory at Talladega The Associated Press TALLADEGA, Ala. — It was wild, all right, it just wasn’t decisive.

NASCAR’s three title contenders left Talladega Superspeedway with their championship chances intact, as Jimmie Johnson, Denny Hamlin and Kevin Harvick remained locked at the top of the tightest points fight in seven years after a typically chaotic race.

Clint Bowyer edged Harvick, his Richard Childress Racing teammate, in a photo-finish Sunday. But Harvick was just fine settling for second because it’s the big picture that matters now.

Johnson, the four-time defending champion, left Talladega with a 14-point lead over Hamlin and Harvick was 38 back.

There are three races remaining in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

“We’ve gone through seven races, and you can throw a blanket over the three of us,” Harvick said. “It’s really going to just come down to dotting the Is, crossing the Ts, keeping that performance level where it needs to be.”

“It’s going to be an awesome championship battle all the way to Homestead, and I’m really looking forward to it,” Johnson echoed.

All three went to Talladega hoping it wouldn’t be the wild card of the 10-race Chase.

Although it was wild, it didn’t disrupt the Chase.

The race was marked by 87 lead changes, second most in NASCAR history, and a multicar accident that sent AJ Allmendinger’s car flipping across the track as the leaders roared toward the white flag. NASCAR threw the caution for Allmendinger’s accident, and nobody had any idea who was out front when the yellow waved.

It took several minutes of reviews for NASCAR to declare Bowyer the victor. He jumped the gun with celebratory burnouts, then stuck his hand out his window for a congratulatory highfive with Harvick, who waited in his parked Chevrolet for the NASCAR call.

While Bowyer celebrated in Victory Lane, the title contenders tried to make sense of the day. Johnson hovered around a TV monitor in the infield media

Cyclocross • Trebon scores seconds at USGP: Ryan Trebon, a professional bike racer from Bend, picked up a pair of second-place finishes at the second round of the U.S. Gran Prix of Cyclocross.

The Derby City Cup, held Oct. 23-24 in Louisville, Ky., featured two days of internationally ranked competition. It also marked rounds three and four in the eight-race USGP of Cyclocross series.

In the elite men’s race, Trebon finished second on the first day of the competition behind reigning national champion Tim Johnson, of Beverly, Mass. The next day, the Bend rider finished second to Jeremy Powers, of Easthampton, Mass.

The pair of runner-up finishes moved Trebon, 29, up in the national cyclocross standings, where the two-time cyclocross national champion is currently ranked third.

The final two USGP races of 2010 will be held Dec. 4-5 in Portland.

Locally Jason Smith / The Associated Press

Clint Bowyer (33) and Kevin Harvick (29) cross the finish line on the final lap of the Amp Energy Juice 500 auto race at the Talladega Superspeedway in Talladega, Ala., on Sunday. Bowyer was awarded the win after it was determined that he was ahead when a wreck occurred on the final lap, freezing the places of the competitors at the time of the incident. center to watch replays of the final two laps, while a wide-eyed Harvick was later distracted by another view.

“Oh, I didn’t know somebody flipped,” he said.

That’s how it usually goes at Talladega, and the drivers went into Sunday with strategies to avoid the mayhem.

For Johnson and Hamlin, it was riding around the back most of the day then hooking up with a teammate for help for a final push.

Only Hamlin lost the draft and fell behind the pack and dropped a lap down. He needed to wait for the field to catch him, then slid inside a promised hole from fellow Toyota driver David Reutimann to stop the bleeding. From there, Hamlin needed cautions to get back on the lead lap and into position to keep his title chances alive.

One of the cautions that helped Hamlin hurt Harvick. He raced hard all day but damaged the nose of his Chevrolet midway through the race in a multicar accident on the backstretch.

A quick pit-road repair job put him back in contention, and he continued his hard push. A caution for debris set up a restart with four laps remaining, and Harvick received unusual help from Reutimann, who as a Toyota driver probably shouldn’t have pushed Hamlin’s competition to

the front.

“If you had your preference of helping a Toyota, if you have a choice, I think we would try to pick a Toyota,” explained Reutimann, who wound up fourth behind the RCR drivers and Juan Pablo Montoya. “But sometimes you don’t have a choice and you have to go with whatever’s going to benefit your team the most.”

Harvick wasn’t all that surprised to get the push from Reutimann.

“It’s hard when you line all those cars up at the end,” Harvick said. “When you get down to the end, I mean, unless you’re just going to let off, I just don’t think that’s in many’s nature that sits behind the wheel of these cars.

You have to just push whoever’s in front of you and go for it.”

Also on Sunday: John Force wins in Las Vegas LAS VEGAS — John Force moved closer to a possible 15th Funny Car season title, beating Matt Hagan in the NHRA Las Vegas Nationals for his record 131st career victory. The 61-yearold Force had a final-round pass of 4.232 seconds at 281.36 mph, while Hagan finished in 6.925 at 110.96. Force, seeking his first season title since 2005, is second in the standings, 37 points behind Hagan with only the season-ending race in Pomona, Calif., left.

• Local mountain bike, cyclocross team seeks new members: A relatively new amateur bike-racing team based in Bend is seeking new members for the 2011 race season. Bloom Racing, a dirtfocused team that competes in local and regional cyclocross and mountain bike races, is expanding its current roster of eight riders, according to team director David Krause.

GOLF ROUNDUP

SAN ANTONIO — Monday qualifier Rod Spittle won the AT&T Championship on Sunday for his first Champions Tour victory, beating Jeff Sluman with a par on the first hole of a playoff.

Spittle, a 55-year-old Canadian, and Sluman closed with 4-under 67s to finish at 12 under on the Oak Hills Country Club course.

Spittle earned $262,500.

Spittle birdied Nos. 15-17, hitting a wedge shot to 2 feet on the 17th and parred the 18th, while Sluman birdied 15 and 16 and finished with two pars.

“Not to sound corny, but to say this is a dream come true literally is the case,” said Spittle, the former Ohio State player who sold insurance until turning pro six years ago. “These are great players out here, and to come and tip-toe in that company is truly amazing.”

He’s the 11th player to win on the Champions Tour after qualifying Monday and the first since Pete Oakley won the Senior British Open six years ago.

Sluman hit his tee shot into the front bun-

ker on the playoff hole — the par-3 18th — and had a bogey putt left when Spittle won with a 4-foot par putt.

Two-time Oak Hills winner John Cook (68), second-round leader Larry Nelson (70) and Chien Soon Lu (69) tied for third at 11 under.

Nelson, the 63-year-old Hall of Famer who was looking for his first win in six years, fell out of the lead with a double bogey and bogey on consecutive front-nine holes. Cook missed an 8-foot birdie putt on the final hole.

In other events on Sunday: McDowell takes two-stroke victory SOTOGRANDE, Spain — Northern Ireland’s Graeme McDowell won the Andalucia Masters at Valderrama, closing with a 3-over 74 for a two-stroke victory. McDowell, also the U.S. Open winner and Wales Open champion this year, finished at 3 under. Northern Ireland’s Gareth Maybin (76), Denmark’s Soren Kjeldsen (69) and Ireland’s Damien McGrane (72) tied for second.

Soccer Continued from D1 The Sisters girls, 4A’s only undefeated squad at 13-0, is ranked just sixth. If the rankings stay the same after the play-in round, the Outlaw girls could conceivably play only one home playoff game even if they advance deep into the postseason — despite having a better record than their playoff opponents.

Fortunately, the use of power rankings and the seeding of playoff teams will be reviewed at the end of the school year.

Realizing that the new system is a radical departure from anything it has tried before, the OSAA approved the powerranking format only after inserting a clause in the new rule that calls for an annual review to allow for a “reassessment of practical realities and any unexpected issues.”

Ride Continued from D1 “I think it has to do with actually doing something and not sitting on the couch and suffering,” says Apfelbaum. “My power is to complete what task I choose to complete — it was about me completing what I set out to do.”

The Bend couple was selected to attend the Texas ride by Gary Bonacker, another local cancer survivor and creator of the Tour des Chutes, a popular annual Central Oregon bike ride benefiting both the St. Charles Cancer Center in Bend and the Lance Armstrong Foundation.

At first, Apfelbaum, who joined what he calls “the club of cancer” in 2007, didn’t feel worthy to represent the Bend ride at the Ride for the Roses. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer but underwent surgery that successfully removed the cancer.

“So many here,” he adds, “are in a far worse situation.” That list would include Bonacker, who is about to begin his sixth month in a yearlong schedule of chemotherapy for brain cancer.

But Apfelbaum and Osgood, 61, agreed to accept Bonacker’s invitation, and they committed to ride in honor of their friend.

Bonacker, 57, was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2003. He attended his first Ride for the Roses in Austin in 2004, the same year in which the now-ubiquitous

Livestrong wristband was introduced and the Wear Yellow Live Strong campaign was launched.

Bonacker brought the notion of a cancer bike ride home to Bend. The following year he introduced the Tour des Chutes, a multidistance bike ride and cancer fundraiser he modeled after his experience in Texas — even including the special finishing chute for cancer survivors, who are presented a yellow rose upon completion of the ride.

I’m a plagiarist,” Bonacker says with a laugh.

The Tour des Chutes was, and continues to be, heartily embraced by the Central Oregon cycling and business communities — the event attracted 1,000 riders and raised some $80,000 for cancer charities in 2010. According to Bonacker, about two-thirds of the money raised through the Tour des Chutes stays here. That money is responsible for the expansion of the St. Charles Medical Center Cancer Survivorship Program, which offers numerous support resources for cancer survivors in Central Oregon.

The remaining funds raised through the annual July ride benefit the Livestrong Foundation, which is why Bonacker annually receives a VIP invitation to attend the Ride for the Roses weekend. And since 2006, he’s passed his invitation on — selecting local riders to represent the Tour des Chutes and Central Oregon at the October ride in

Austin.

“There are a lot of cancer patients and survivors out there, but not all want to go out and ride bikes and wouldn’t get as much out of it as someone who’s into bike racing,” says Bonacker.

“I look at who would get the biggest charge out of this, and who can represent Central Oregon as a cancer survivor.”

Osgood and Apfelbaum are both avid cyclists, and they were regular patrons of the Bend bike shop Bonacker co-owns, Sunnyside Sports, long before cancer was part of the story. Between them, the couple estimates they log a combined 6,000 miles year on their bikes, including touring events like Cycle Oregon and the Oregon Bike Ride.

Apfelbaum was on hand to watch Armstrong, in his comeback from testicular cancer, win the 1998 Cascade Cycling Classic in Bend. Apfelbaum got a chance to share that memory with Armstrong during a private ride and photo shoot during the Ride for the Roses weekend.

“That,” says Apfelbaum, “was the highlight.”

Because of the significant sum donated to the Livestrong Foundation from the Tour des Chutes, the lucky riders nominated by Bonacker to take part in the Ride for the Roses are in for pro-level treatment once they arrive in Austin. With about 120 other top Livestrong fundraisers from across the country, they

Highlights: Mostly clean and quiet country roads; the road surface covering a total of about 20 miles of the 44-mile ride is blissfully smooth

The ride passes through all three Central Oregon counties, through the Crooked River National Grasslands, and meanders past numerous farms and livestock ranches; includes views of Smith Rock and the Cascade Mountains.

Actor Patrick Dempsey, right, and RadioShack executive Lee Applbaum, left, hand Lance Armstrong a donation of $1 million for the Livestrong Foundation at the Ride for the Roses in Austin, Texas, on Sunday, Oct. 24. enjoy private meals with Armstrong and Team RadioShack, tours of the Livestrong building — which includes memorabilia from Armstrong’s seven Tour de France wins — and a private ride and photo shoot with Armstrong himself.

Apfelbaum, a periodontist, and Osgood, a real estate agent, were early financial contributors to, and participants in, the Tour des Chutes. But the ride certainly held new meaning after Apfelbaum was hit with cancer in 2007.

He has since participated in Livestrong fundraising rides in Portland and Seattle, as well as riding each year in the Tour des Chutes.

That Armstrong is currently under investigation by a federal grand jury for alleged doping during his long reign over the Tour de France should not take away from the valuable work his foundation is doing for cancer awareness and cancer research, says Bonacker.

“I think about (the controversy) a lot,” he offers. “I thought

up at the Terrebonne Thriftway (8131 11th St.) or enjoy a postride burger at the Terrebonne Depot (400 N.W. Smith Rock Way). Another option is to park, for a $5 fee, at Smith Rock State Park, where picnicking and restrooms are available Other ride options: Riders looking for a shorter loop can stay closer to Smith Rock by connecting Smith Rock Way with Northeast First Street and Lambert Road. (From Smith Rock Way, turn north on Northeast First Street, which turns into Wilcox Lane/Lambert Road. Continue east and then south on Lambert Road until it intersects with Smith Rock Way. Proceed west on Smith Rock Way back to the starting point to complete the loop.)

about it seven years ago, too.

For me, Lance Armstrong is a spokesperson for Livestrong. He started the foundation and he’s the reason there is a foundation.

“Let’s say Lance is found guilty,” Bonacker continues. “I have to look at Livestrong and look at what they’ve done and the amount of money they’ve produced each year as a separate deal.”

Osgood and Apfelbaum acknowledge that the Ride for the Roses, which this year raised more than $3 million, and the Livestrong Foundation are about much more than Armstrong the world-class cyclist.

“What comes out of this (Ride for the Roses) weekend was how incredibly strong people are,” says Osgood.

“They’re resilient,” notes Apfelbaum.

The Bend couple returned to Central Oregon with a true appreciation for all that Livestrong represents.

“Lance Armstrong has this incredible empire that’s not really about Lance,” says Osgood. “It is about cancer survivorship and cure.” “(The ride) is not about me,” Apfelbaum adds, “and it’s not about Carol.

“It’s about the 28 million cancer survivors.”

A foreclosure sale is scheduled for 2/22/2011. Unless the lender who is foreclosing on this property is paid, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. The following information applies to you only if you occupy and rent this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a residential tenant. If the foreclosure goes through, the business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale has the right to require you to move out. The buyer must first give you an eviction notice in writing that specifies the date by which you must move out. The buyer may not give you this notice until after the foreclosure sale happens. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the buyer can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES YOU TO BE NOTIFIED IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNDER A LEGITIMATE RENTAL AGREEMENT, FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU A NOTICE IN WRITING A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE THE BUYER CAN REQUIRE YOU TO MOVE OUT. THE FEDERAL LAW THAT REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU THIS NOTICE IS EFFECTIVE UNTIL December 31, 2012.

Under federal law, the buyer must give you at least 90 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If you are renting this property under a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), you may stay until the end of your lease term. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 90 days left. STATE LAW NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS IF THE FEDERAL LAW DOES NOT APPLY, STATE LAW STILL REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING BEFORE REQUIRING YOU TO MOVE OUT IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THE PROPERTY AS A TENANT IN GOOD FAITH. EVEN IF THE FEDERAL LAW REQUIREMENT IS NO LONGER EFFECTIVE AFTER December 31, 2012, THE REQUIREMENT UNDER STATE LAW STILL APPLIES TO YOUR SITUATION. Under state law, if you have a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), the buyer must give you at least 60 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 30 days left. If you are renting under a month-to-month or week-to-week rental agreement, the buyer must give you at least 30 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. IMPORTANT: For the buyer to be required to give you a notice under state law, you must prove to the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale that you are occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement.

The name and address of the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale is shown on this notice under the heading "TRUSTEE". You must mail or deliver your proof not later than 1/23/2011 (30 days before the date first set for the foreclosure sale). Your proof must be in writing and should be a copy of your rental agreement or lease. If you do not have a written rental agreement or lease, you can provide other proof, such as receipts for rent paid. ABOUT YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT Under state law, you may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR TENACY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out. You should contact the buyer to discuss that possibility if you would like to stay. Under state law, if the buyer accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the buyer becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise, the buyer is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf and you must move out by the date the buyer specifies in a notice to you. YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD TO ANOTHER BUSINESS OR INDIVIDUAL OR UNTIL A COURT OR A LENDER TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. AS EXPLAINED ABOVE, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO APPLY A DEPOSIT OR RENT YOU PREPAID AGAINST YOUR CURRENT RENT OBLIGATION. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE AND OF ANY NOTICE YOU GIVE OR RECEIVE CONCERNING THE APPLICATION OF YOUR DEPOSIT OR PREPAID RENT. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR HOME WITHOUT FIRST GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU MAY WISH TO CONSULT A LAWYER. If you believe you need legal assistance, contact the Oregon State Bar and ask for the lawyer referral service. Contact information for the Oregon State Bar is included with this notice.

A foreclosure sale is scheduled for 2/22/2011. Unless the lender who is foreclosing on this property is paid, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. The following information applies to you only if you occupy and rent this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a residential tenant. If the foreclosure goes through, the business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale has the right to require you to move out. The buyer must first give you an eviction notice in writing that specifies the date by which you must move out. The buyer may not give you this notice until after the foreclosure sale happens. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the buyer can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES YOU TO BE NOTIFIED IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNDER A LEGITIMATE RENTAL AGREEMENT, FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU A NOTICE IN WRITING A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE THE BUYER CAN REQUIRE YOU TO MOVE OUT. THE FEDERAL LAW THAT REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU THIS NOTICE IS EFFECTIVE UNTIL DECEMBER 31,2012. Under federal law, the buyer must give you at least 90 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If you are renting this property under a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), you may stay until the end of your lease term. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 90 days left. STATE LAW NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS IF THE FEDERAL LAW DOES NOT APPLY, STATE LAW STILL REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING BEFORE REQUIRING YOU TO MOVE OUT IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THE PROPERTY AS A TENANT IN GOOD FAITH. EVEN IF THE FEDERAL LAW REQUIREMENT IS NO LONGER EFFECTIVE AFTER DECEMBER 31, 2012, THE REQUIREMENT UNDER STATE LAW STILL APPLIES TO YOUR SITUATION. Under state law, if you have a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), the buyer must give you at least 60 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 30 days left. If you are renting under a month-to-month or week-to-week rental agreement, the buyer must give you at least 30 days' notice in writing before requiring you to move out. IMPORTANT: For the buyer to be required to give you a notice under state law, you must prove to the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale that you are occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The name and address of the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale is shown on this notice under the heading "TRUSTEE". You must mail or deliver your proof not later than 1/23/2011 (30 days before the date first set for the foreclosure sale). Your proof must be in writing and should be a copy of your rental agreement or lease. If you do not have a written rental agreement or lease, you can provide other proof, such as receipts for rent paid. ABOUT YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT Under state law, you may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR TENACY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out. You should contact the buyer to discuss that possibility if you would like to stay. Under state law, if the buyer accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the buyer becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise, the buyer is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf and you must move out by the date the buyer specifies in a notice to you. YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD TO ANOTHER BUSINESS OR INDIVIDUAL OR UNTIL A COURT OR A LENDER TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. AS EXPLAINED ABOVE, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO APPLY A DEPOSIT OR RENT YOU PREPAID AGAINST YOUR CURRENT RENT OBLIGATION. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE AND OF ANY NOTICE YOU GIVE OR RECEIVE CONCERNING THE APPLICATION OF YOUR DEPOSIT OR PREPAID RENT. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR HOME WITHOUT FIRST GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU MAY WISH TO CONSULT A LAWYER. If you believe you need legal assistance, contact the Oregon State Bar and ask for the lawyer referral service. Contact information for the Oregon State Bar is included with this notice.
