Patrick Flaherty, left, is sworn in by Judge Michael Sullivan in the Deschutes County Circuit Court in Bend on Monday morning.

Five prosecutors were fired from the Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office Monday, and a new chief deputy district attorney was hired. The changes came swiftly, after new District Attorney Patrick Flaherty was sworn into office just before 9 a.m. Monday. It was also the first day on the job for new Chief Deputy District Attorney

A tubular tumble

The minimum academic requirements are changing for students who qualify for federal financial aid, and Central Oregon Community College is considering changes that officials hope will keep students on track. Beginning at the close of summer term, the government will change the period of time during which students must show satisfactory academic progress to be eligible for federal financial aid. Colleges can set their own policies. For example, currently COCC students receiving financial aid grants and loans must have a cumulative 2.0 gradepoint average and have completed two-thirds of the classes they’ve enrolled in at the end of the school year. Students who fail to meet those requirements at the end of a year are placed on probation, and if they don’t improve they no longer qualify for federal financial aid grants and loans. The U.S. Department of Education is changing the timeline, said Kevin Multop, COCC’s director of financial aid. “The guidance still allows for schools to annually evaluate students, but what they’re really tightening down is what happens next,” he said. “In the past a student could be put on probation (at the end of that year), but now the feds are saying that the eligibility needs to be terminated immediately.” Because Multop worries about students losing that probationary period, he and COCC officials are considering closer monitoring to help students stay out of trouble. “The biggest change at COCC will be that currently for twoyear degree-seeking students we monitor them annually,” he said. “Under the new policy, what we’re considering, and this isn’t final, but that evaluation time would be lessened to each term.” More than 10,000 students are enrolled in credit classes at COCC; in the 2008-09 school year more than half of all students received some form of financial aid.

WASHINGTON — Get ready for some slambang action from the new Republican-led House of Representatives after the 112th Congress convenes Wednesday: It’s going to read the entire Constitution aloud, try to repeal the new health care law and cut federal spending dramatically. But despite what’s likely to be a January full of big talk, big votes and big ideas, the most important policy decisions are unlikely for several weeks and months, and then only after some titanic power struggles. While House Republicans will have a 242-to-193 majority, the biggest GOP margin since the first Truman administration, any legislation must be approved by the Democratic-dominated Senate and signed by President Barack Obama. “What you’re going to see at first is a lot of fire and brimstone, and votes on symbolically important legislation,” veteran budget analyst Stan Collender said.

Pfizer overwhelmed by demand for anti-smoking drug in Japan By Hiroko Tabuchi New York Times News Service

TOKYO — When the Japanese government raised the tax on cigarettes Oct. 1, it could have started a public health revolution in this land of heavy smokers. The tax increase should also have been a bonanza for Pfizer, the

world’s biggest pharmaceutical company, which makes the leading drug to help smokers break the habit. Instead, it became a missed opportunity. Despite ample notice of the change, Pfizer failed to produce enough of the drug, Chantix, which is sold as Champix in Japan. When tens

of thousands of would-be quitters rushed to their doctors for prescriptions, Pfizer was overwhelmed. Less than two weeks after the tax increase went into effect, the company was forced to suspend sales of the drug to new patients until it could ramp up production. See Japan / A5

To catch a counterfeiter In Seattle’s ports, agents scan for fake goods, from handbags to soap

Pete Zimowsky/Idaho Statesman

Bike seat built for comfort

By Erik Lacitis The Seattle Times

SEATTLE — Laundry soap did seem an unusual product for someone to counterfeit. Rolex watches, Gucci handbags, Tiffany jewelry or Windows operating systems are the kinds of goods that you imagine in the counterfeit world. But fake Tide detergent? In September, 5,000 boxes of the phony stuff were seized by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) agents in Seattle after being unloaded from a container ship that had arrived from China. That shipment, the agency estimates, would have generated a profit of at least $4,000 on the Tide-labeled detergent and an additional 3,600 bags of Ariellabeled detergent also found in the container. If there is a profit to be made, however small, somebody will try to sneak it in. And it all adds up. Two weeks later, 52,160 packages of fake Ariel were confiscated from the same importer, for which the profit would have been more than $24,000, the CBP estimates. “A detergent does seem a little weird,” Judy Staudt, supervisory import specialist with the CBP, said of counterfeiting Tide or Ariel. “But you understand that it’s 300 or 400 percent profit.” The fakes could have ended up in mom-and-pop groceries or maybe some outdoor market.

Big agency, big costs Nationwide, 95 percent of our overseas cargo moves through Seattle’s ports, the CBP says. A million of those ubiquitous, 40-foot metal containers, the agency says, arrived by ocean in Seattle and Tacoma in fiscal 2009. And they have to be checked out. Counterfeiting costs U.S. businesses $200 billion to $250 billion annually, according to the International Anti-counterfeiting Coalition, composed of affected companies. These days, the same techniques implemented after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks to look for terrorist weapons also nab that counterfeit detergent. The CBP now is the largest law enforcement agency in the country, with some 58,000 employees. The old Immigration and Naturalization Service, U.S. Border Patrol, U.S. Customs and federal agriculture inspectors were combined in 2003. Its search for illicit goods includes:

U.S. Customs and Border Protection officer Kris Johnson handles her dog, Layla, who sniffs pallets of products that came into the Port of Seattle and were trucked to a warehouse on Nov. 11. • Sending the containers through a radiation portal monitor that looks a bit like a toll booth, and records any radiation emanating from the container. Officers sit in front of monitors that rank the radiation. Ceramics, for example, emit naturally occurring harmless radiation. But a neutron alert might come from something like oil-drilling equipment. Or it could come from plutonium to make a nuke. • Randomly selecting containers and shooting them with gamma rays to show the physical shape of what’s inside, even through 6 inches of steel. This is called a “nonintrusive inspection” to keep commerce flowing, meaning the container isn’t examined physically unless the gamma images show something unusual. • Looking for telltale minuscule sawdust in wooden shipping crates caused by Asian woodboring beetles that can destroy American forests. If larvae is found, the container is fumigated and might be shipped back to its originating port. • Using dogs trained to sniff for hidden currency, drugs, explosives and human stowaways. Coming through customs at the airport, the dogs have such a keen sense of smell that they’ll sit by your side (not a good sign) even if your only contact with pot was smoking a joint hours earlier in Amsterdam.

Spotting fakes There are plenty of mementos in the office of Judy Staudt on the 21st floor of a Second Avenue building in downtown Seattle. A bunch of fake labels, ready to be sewn onto a fake garment, everything from Tommy Hilfiger to Ralph Lauren.

A fake Louis Vuitton purse. “Look at the quality of the zippers. You can’t even close them,” she said. “Cheap zippers.” There’s a fake Chanel bag, although you have to do a little work to come up with the Chanel logo that consists of two intertwined C’s for the founder’s full name, Coco Chanel. The C’s are closed so they look like O’s. But the embroidery is such that you can easily snip a chunk out of each O and get a C. The way the counterfeit detergents were found, Staudt explains, is that technicians working on that floor saw something in the import manifest on their computers that caught their attention. Since Sept. 11, a shipper has to provide a description, weight and other information 24 hours before a shipment is even loaded at a foreign port. The manufacturer already had been flagged as having problems with a previous shipment of detergent sent to Philadelphia. And this particular shipment had been listed as “organic soap,” which sounded a bit too general, said Doug McBride, Seattle spokesman for the CBP. So the container was routed to a warehouse the agency has in the Sodo District, stacked with boxes of goods to be inspected. When a sampling of the detergent boxes was opened, agents couldn’t help but notice that the Tide was labeled as “Made in USA.” And the weight listed on each box was in kilograms, not pounds. Plus the weight figures used a comma, as in “3,6 kg,” which is how weights are listed in many other countries, instead of the Americanized “3.6.” At a distance, the color printing on the detergent containers looked fine. Closer up, there was

fuzziness, like when you take a picture of a picture. The boxes of detergent now are stored in a warehouse, and the case is still being investigated, Staudt said. She said the detergent likely will end up in a landfill, or may be taken to a hazardous-waste site, the contents of the detergent still unknown.

Paying the price If you’re thinking about turning a quick profit selling counterfeits, on eBay for example, consider the price if you are caught. On Oct. 1, Genevieve Rullan, 34, of Seattle, was sentenced in U.S. District Court to 30 days in jail, 120 days of home confinement, 150 hours of community service and three years of supervised release and ordered to pay $64,500 in restitution for selling counterfeit “Ab Circle Pro” exercisers on eBay, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office. The U.S. Attorney’s Office says Rullan sold more than 1,000 counterfeit items between 2008 and 2009 and that a search of her home found 210 of the fake units. The fakes will end up in a landfill, as customers complained about their low quality. “I think she was paying $16 for them, and selling them on eBay for anywhere from $130 to $150,” Staudt said. She says someone such as Rullan could have ordered the fakes from plenty of websites. So for her staff, whether designer bags, exercise equipment or laundry soap, the chase is always on. “Easy money,” Staudt said. “It comes down to easy money.”

BOISE — Jeri Rutherford had been a long-distance cyclist since her teens. Then something changed after age 45. “I just couldn’t ride anymore,” she said, “It became more and more painful to sit on the bicycle seat.” The frustration led Rutherford, a corporate-management consultant, to pursue a passion to develop a comfortable bicycle seat. And it was a passion. “It’s my life,” she said of cycling. Jeri Rutherford She believes that a comfortable bicycle seat can change the world by fixing waistlines and the environment. Five years and more than 60 bicycle seat prototypes later, Rutherford is marketing the Carbon Comfort Saddle. Seat discomfort is the most common complaint from riders, she said. Men have suffered from chronic nerve damage and groin numbness on extended rides with an improperly fitting seat. Women also suffer nerve damage and chafing, Rutherford said. So, Rutherford built a different bicycle saddle. “People over 35 and women love the seat,” said Rutherford, who is now 52 and continuing long-distance riding up to 150 miles on a weekend. The Carbon Comfort bike by RideOut Technologies features: • A unisex design, which supports the sit bones of men and women, and distributes weight more evenly over a greater area. • An infused carbon-fiber base plate that offers road-shock absorption and flexes to fit the rider. The seat’s crossbow suspension system also works to absorb rider and road shock. Rutherford compares the crossbow technology to the leaf springs on a pickup. • Carbon-fiber construction that keeps the seat lightweight at 14 ounces. • Seat rails with position markings for easy installation and adjustments. • A Kevlar-reinforced saddle cover and a high-visibility reflective safety panel. For details, visit www.rideout tech.com. The seat retails for $84.95.

Shopping trip inspires teen social network By Joan Verdon The Record (Hackensack N.J.)

HACKENSACK, N.J. — Venture capital investor Charlie Federman took his daughters to a Paramus, N.J., mall one day and came home with an idea for an Internet business with the potential to deliver a coveted demographic — teenage girls who like to shop. Federman, a managing partner of Crossbar Capital, is the founder of PlumWillow, a website that piggybacks on Facebook to create a social shopping network for girls. Federman and Crossbar Capital provided the seed money for PlumWillow, and he put together a team of executives experienced in launching Internet and technology companies. He also formed a brain trust that guided the creation of the site — a group of high school interns from Bergen County, N.J., and New York City. One of his daughters created the PlumWillow name, after being given the assignment to think of a name that would be appealing to girls, and that wasn’t already being used by another online business. “I have hundreds of girls volunteering to help me on a subject

matter that they are truly more expert than most of the people in the company because they are that demographic,” Federman said. Carla Larin, 18, a senior at Bergen Academy in Hackensack, was among the first group of interns. She advised Federman to drop his original idea of a site where girls could dress digital avatars in favor of something closer to the kind of shopping experience girls like. Girls, Larin said, want to be able to talk to their friends and socialize while shopping, a reason many online shopping sites don’t grab teen girls. “If I’m going to be buying something, I’d rather try it on at the mall and go with all my friends, but with PlumWillow, all your friends are on PlumWillow,” she said. Federman’s initial inspiration for the site came when he was driving his daughters to a mall and asked them why they never shopped online. “Because it sucks,” they replied. After they returned home, he asked them to look at online retail sites with him and asked “Define ‘sucks’ for me.” “It occurred to me that the sites we have now have been built

in a time when shopping was a solitary experience, before social networks,” he said. For girls, shopping is a social experience, like slumber parties.” The business plan for the site, which debuted in October, is to focus on building an online community first, and make money later. Retailers don’t pay to be linked with the site, but PlumWillow earns the standard online commission of 3 percent to 7 percent if a PlumWillow user then clicks through to buy an item. PlumWillow executives said the site is already earning some revenue from such commissions. Federman, who has participated in a number of successful Internet and technology launches, would not specify how much “seed money” Crossbar Capital and other investors have put into the project. “It’s cheaper to start an Internet company than it’s ever been, but it’s never really cheap,” he said. PlumWillow takes advantage of a decision by Facebook this year to open its social network to other websites that want to build a community of users with a common interest. PlumWillow members log into the site through their Facebook account, and can

Carla Larin, 18, is an intern at PlumWillow, a fashion-themed social shopping community on the Internet. send shopping-related messages to friends in their Facebook network. The PlumWillow site lets girls create outfits on a virtual palette, picking, for example, jeans and boots that go with a certain blouse or jacket. They then can share their choices with their network. The members also build virtual closets of their favorite clothes. The items they choose come from the online stores of the 20 retailers linked to the PlumWillow site. “Here’s the vision,” Federman said: “We know the girl, we know the type of jeans she likes because she’s built closets with us. We also

know the jeans her friends have bought. We also know the jeans the community has matched with that shirt. At the moment she clicks on jeans, on a real-time basis, we’ll be able to offer her suggestions,” he said. “Companies will pay us to reach the girl just when she exposes her intent that she’s looking for jeans.” PlumWillow has almost 5,000 members, and user visits total about 1,000 per day, executives said. Federman and Baron acknowledge that those numbers are small in the vast world of the Internet, but “it’s a nice beginning,” Baron said.

T S Thousands of blackbirds fall dead on New Year’s

Clashes grow as Egyptians remain tense after attack New York Times News Service

Associated Press

By Jeannie Nuss

CAIRO — Thousands of rioters broke through police lines, pelting officers with rocks and bottles and beating them with makeshift wooden crosses in a third day of unrest set off by a bomb blast outside a church after a New Year’s Mass, which killed 21 people and wounded about 100. The fighting broke out late Monday in the densely packed neighborhood of Shoubra, home to many of Cairo’s Christians, when a crowd of hundreds of protesters suddenly swelled into the thousands and surged through the winding streets. Eventually, the throng — chanting “Where were you when they attacked Alex?” and “Oh Mubarak, you villain, Coptic blood is not cheap,” referring to President Hosni Mubarak — began battling with the police, who dropped their batons and shields to throw rocks and bottles back at the protesters. It was the second time in two nights that the police in Cairo, outnumbered and overwhelmed by protesters, broke ranks and attacked the crowd. Even before the outbreak Monday night, at least 39 riot police officers, including four high-ranking officers, had been injured trying to contain the protests. Egyptian authorities seemed uncertain at every level of how to contain the civil unrest unleashed by the bombing, outside Saints Church in Alexandria. They focused on the forensics, identifying 18 of the victims — 10 women and eight men — and were examining a decapitated head thought to

ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast — African leaders on Monday offered Laurent Gbagbo one last chance to accept an amnesty deal on condition he immediately cede power to the internationally recognized winner of Ivory Coast’s presidential election or face a military ouster. They left hours later with no clear answer from the renegade president who has defied calls to step down, even though results tallied by the country’s electoral commission and certified by the United Nations showed he had lost by a landslide to opposition leader Alassane Ouattara. The trip is the second in less than a week by the three African presidents on behalf of the 15-member Economic Community of West African States, or ECOWAS, in an attempt to give persuasion a final chance before resorting to military force. Even as Gbagbo’s meeting with the African leaders was going on, his closest advisers continued to insist that the 65-yearold had won the election, indicating that the sitting president did not intend to budge. Speaking to reporters after meeting with the African leaders, Ouattara told reporters that the dialogue was over. “For us, the discussion is finished,” said Ouattara. “Everything has been done so that we could find a solution through diplomacy and dialogue. Since that is not the case, perhaps Laurent Gbagbo will have a change of heart in coming hours? If not, then ECOWAS will need to use all the means at its disposal including the use of legitimate force so that the president that was elected can assume his functions.”

BEEBE, Ark. — New Year’s revelers in a small Arkansas town were enjoying midnight fireworks when they noticed something other than sparks falling from the sky: thousands of dead blackbirds. The red-winged blackbirds rained out of the darkness onto rooftops and sidewalks and into fields. One struck a woman walking her dog. Another hit a police cruiser. Birds were “littering the streets, the yards, the driveways, everywhere,” said Robby King, a county wildlife officer in Beebe, a community of 5,000 northeast of Little Rock. “It was hard to drive down the street in some places without running over them.” In all, more than 3,000 birds tumbled to the ground. Scientists said Monday that fireworks appeared to have frightened the birds into such a frenzy that they crashed into homes, cars and each other. Some may have flown straight into the ground. “The blackbirds were flying at rooftop level instead of treetop level” to avoid explosions above, said Karen Rowe, an ornithologist with the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission. “Blackbirds have poor eyesight, and they started colliding with things.” But Rowe stopped short of declaring the mystery solved, saying labs planned to test bird carcasses for toxins or disease. Another theory was that violent thunderstorms might have disoriented the flock or even just one bird that could have led the group in a fatal plunge to the ground. A few stunned birds survived their fall and stumbled around like drunken revelers. There was little light across the countryside at the time, save for the glimmer of fireworks and some lightning on the horizon. In the tumult, many birds probably lost their bearings. “I turn and look across my yard, and there’s all these lumps,” said Shane Roberts, who thought hail was falling until he saw a dazed blackbird beneath his truck. His 16-year-old daughter, Alex, spent Saturday morning picking them up. “Their legs are really squishy,” the teen said.

2 U.S. service members killed in Iraq By John Leland New York Times News Service

BAGHDAD — Two members of the U.S. military were killed Sunday night in central Iraq, the first such deaths here this year at a time when U.S. casualties had become a rarity. The deaths, confirmed Monday, came amid two days of attacks against Iraqi security forces and the killing of a Christian woman in her home in Baghdad. Police officials said they believed that the killing was a robbery not related to the woman’s religion. The attacks on Iraqi forces began shortly after 7 p.m. Sunday and unfolded with what appeared to be deadly coordination. Over the course of two hours, gunmen using silencers killed a police colonel, an army colonel, two police commissioners, a colonel from the traffic police and a municipal employee, all in a tight area of central and eastern Baghdad. The attacks resembled a similar wave of killings two weeks earlier, also involving weapons with silencers, that left several security members dead, according to an official at the Ministry of the Interior. The attacks Sunday were most likely in retaliation for recent arrests of al-Qaida leaders, said Adnan al-Aside, under secretary of the ministry, who said that the police had lately started successful undercover operations against terrorist groups.

Africa heads offer amnesty to Gbagbo By Rukmini Callimachi

An angry Copt chants anti-government slogans during a protest before clashing with Egyptian riot police in Cairo, Egypt, late Monday. be that of a suicide bomber. The authorities also said they had detained suspects they believed could lead them to those responsible for the bombing. By nightfall, church officials announced that every church in the country — including Saints Church — would go ahead and hold a Coptic Christmas Mass on Thursday night, but that holiday celebrations would be canceled, according to an official Egyptian news service. Outside of Shoubra, the nation remained tense, with fears that the conflict could lead to wider civil unrest between Muslims and Christians. Rumors spread throughout Cairo that Christians pelted Muslim religious leaders with rocks when they went to offer condolences to church officials. With tempers heating up,

police forces tightened security. But many Egyptians said that the state’s oppressive security apparatus was the cause of much of the trouble. “The government is the reason this happened,” said a demonstrator, Mamdouh Mikheil. “They are the terrorists who attack us everyday.” At one point earlier in the day, as a small group of protesters marched through the center of Cairo, a high-ranking state security officer walked over to a row of demonstrators standing vigil and slowly, methodically blew out the white candles they were holding to remember those who died. It was a small, yet telling moment for a Christian community that feels increasingly victimized and marginalized, first by a series of deadly attacks and then by a government that resists ac-

knowledging that the nation is torn by growing conflict between its Muslim majority and its Christian minority, according to political experts here. “Do not say that the criminal terrorists are not Egyptian,” Samir Farid wrote in the independent newspaper Al Masry Al Youm, echoing a theme emphasized across nearly every daily newspaper on Monday. “They are Egyptian Muslims who are putting the nation on one hand and Islam on the other, and favoring the hand of Islam over the nation.” It was not all dire, however. There was a glimmer of hope, some observers said, that this attack, so lethal and abhorrent to so many Egyptians, would reinforce Egypt’s deeply felt sense of nationhood.

Pakistan prime minister struggling for support The Washington Post KARACHI, Pakistan — Pakistani Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gillani sought Monday to shore up support for his embattled U.S-allied government, one day after it plunged into a new crisis when a key ally abandoned the ruling coalition for the opposition. Gillani met with leaders of the two primary opposition parties, the Pakistan Muslim League-N and the Pakistan Muslim League-Q, in a bid to gain their support in case of a no-confidence vote against him in parliament, which could trigger the government’s collapse. The defection on Sunday of the Muttahida Qaumi Movement, the governing coalition’s second-largest partner, deprived President Asif Ali Zardari’s Pakistan People’s Party

of its parliamentary majority. That raised the prospect that federal lawmakers would oust Gillani, possibly prompting early elections. The MQM said it decided to quit over recent state-controlled gasoline price hikes, which have compounded the woes of a population already struggling with 15 percent inflation. Amid rumors that factions loyal to Zardari were pushing for Gillani’s dismissal, the PPP vowed on Monday to support the prime minister. Although the widely fractured opposition parties were unlikely to unite in a vote of no-confidence against Gillani, political analysts said a PPPled minority government could face legislative paralysis — and possibly the intervention of the powerful military.

Opposition arrests lead to protests in Moscow New York Times News Service MOSCOW — Members of Russia’s opposition picketed government buildings here Monday, denouncing a Moscow court’s decision to jail, for up to 15 days, several leaders of their movement who took part in an anti-government rally. Almost 70 people were arrested during a New Year’s Eve protest against restrictions on freedom of assembly. Boris Nemtsov, one of the opposition’s most prominent leaders, was among those arrested. On Sunday, a Moscow court sentenced Nemtsov, a central official in the government of former President Boris Yeltsin, to 15 days in jail. Other leaders received similar or lesser sentences. The arrests occurred despite a Moscow City Hall decision to allow the rally and appeared to indicate some disagreement within the Russian government

over how to deal with the country’s tiny, but vocal, opposition. President Dmitry Medvedev recently singled out Nemtsov and several other opposition leaders, referring to them as “well-known politicians” who could in the future play a serious role in the political life of the country. The remarks contrasted with those of Medvedev’s mentor, Vladimir Putin, Russia’s prime minister and paramount leader, who, when asked last month about Nemtsov and other opposition figures, dismissed them as interested only in “money and power.” It was unclear what prompted the arrests during the rally on New Year’s Eve. The police said that those arrested were part of a separate, unsanctioned rally who were trying to urge protesters to leave their designated area.

There were a few new faces among the public officials sworn into office Monday, but most were incumbents who were re-elected in 2010. Deschutes County Clerk Nancy Blankenship was sworn by Judge Michael Sullivan, for Blankenship’s third term. Deschutes County Commissioner Tammy Baney was sworn in for her second term. Newly elected Deschutes County Commissioner Tony DeBone was sworn

Betty Roppe won the election for Prineville’s next mayor; she replaced Mike Wendel, who did not run for office. — Hillary Borrud, The Bulletin

Flaherty Continued from A1 One prosecutor who was let go — Phil Duong — has said Flaherty previously told Duong that he would remain in his job once Flaherty took office. Then on Dec. 20, Flaherty e-mailed letters to Duong and three other deputy district attorneys, telling them they would no longer work for the District Attorney’s Office once he took office. Over the summer, Flaherty also sent a letter to Nakahira, informing him that Flaherty did not plan to employ him in the new year. On Dec. 21, Deschutes County sent the prosecutors e-mails informing them that until formal termination action was taken by the district attorney, they remained on the payroll and were expected to observe county policy regarding hours of work and reporting time. Then on Dec. 22, Flaherty sent a letter to the prosecutors, telling them their jobs would end on Dec. 31 and they should clean out their offices and return any government property issued to them by Dec. 30. Late last week, Deschutes County Administrator Dave Kanner told the five prosecutors to report to the county’s Personnel Department on Monday morning, Nakahira said. There, Nakahira and Deputy District Attorneys Phil Duong, Mary Anderson, Jody Vaughan and Brentley Foster were given letters from Flaherty and Kanner, informing them that their employment with the county was terminated. Meanwhile, Flaherty and other public officials were sworn into office at Deschutes County Circuit Court Monday morning. Flaherty directed most of his comments to prosecutors and other employees of the District Attorney’s Office. “The DA’s office is not meant to be a bu-

reaucratic institution,” Flaherty said. “The DA’s office is a law firm and like all law firms, it needs to be a meritocracy, not a bureaucracy. And you know, change happens frequently in law firms; it’s almost routine. And it presents both an opportunity and a challenge.” “I have not been able to speak with many of you freely until today,” Flaherty continued. “I can only guess that it’s been a really difficult year for you, filled with uncertainty and perhaps with fear. And we are ending that now.” It was unclear Monday how Flaherty plans to handle cases that were assigned to the five prosecutors who were terminated. For example, court records show Vaughan had a case scheduled to go to trial Jan. 11 for the alleged assault of a public safety officer. On Jan. 19, Vaughan had a sex abuse case scheduled for trial. Andrew Altschul, an attorney who represents Foster and Vaughan, said the terminations were “improperly motivated.” “I think it’s union-busting,” Altschul said, referring to the Deschutes County Deputy District Attorneys Association. The union formed in September. Its main goal was to negotiate a contract with Deschutes County that could prevent deputy district attorneys from being disciplined or fired without cause. The union pushed for the Deschutes County Commission to vote on whether to ratify the agreement by the end of the year. But in mid-December, the commission voted unanimously to delay that decision until Jan. 12, after Flaherty took office. “I think (Flaherty) targeted people who he knew supported the union,” Altschul said.

New York Times News Service

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Jerry Brown began his return engagement as governor of California on Monday, using his inaugural address to call for an end to partisan battling that he said was paralyzing the state and to promise, in what is presumably the last chapter of his public life, to lead California out of one of the toughest budget crises of its history. “Choices have to be made, and difficult decisions taken,” Brown declared to an audience that included two former governors and hundreds of state legislators. “At this stage of my life, I have not come here to embrace delay and denial.” At times jocular, at times earnest, Brown noted — indeed celebrated — his longevity in California politics, a depth of experience that in no small part accounted for his victory in November as voters in so much of the rest of the country were turning to outsiders. At 72, Brown is returning for a third term as governor, a position also held by his father, offering a West Coast echo of what took place in Albany, N.Y., on Sunday with the swearing-in of Andrew M. Cuomo as governor of New York. “For me, this day is also special because I get to follow in my father’s footsteps once again, and, 36 years after my first inauguration as governor, even follow in my own,” Brown said. In contrast to his first inaugural speech — where he called for a 7 percent cut in the size of his office staff — Brown did not offer many specifics for how he intended to deal with a state budget shortfall that is now projected at $28.5 billion over 18 months. But he has made clear that his solution, in a budget due Jan. 10, will call for deep cuts in state spending, and his aides have said it is likely to also include a request that voters extend tax surcharges scheduled to expire this year. More than that, Brown — who has had a history of being something of a political iconoclast and who has always been drawn to populist themes and language — offered a clear rebuke to political leaders from both parties who have been enmeshed in what have, at times, seemed interminable and irresolvable political battles. This year, the Legislature adopted a budget 100 days late, setting a record. “In the face of huge budget deficits year after year and the worst credit rating among the 50 states, our two political parties can’t come close to agreeing on the right path forward,” the new governor said, as the lawmakers in his audience sat in still silence. “They remain in their respective comfort zones, rehearsing and rehashing old political positions. “Perhaps this is why the public holds the state government in low esteem,”‘ he said, adding, “Without the

Incoming California Gov. Jerry Brown speaks during his inauguration at the Memorial Auditorium in Sacramento, Calif., on Monday. trust of the people, politics degenerates into mere spectacle and democracy declines, leaving demagoguery and cynicism to fill the void.” Brown looks far different from 36 years ago — what hair he has left has turned gray, as his audience was reminded with a slide show that included pictures from his first round as governor — and he is moving at a slightly slower pace. And many of the people who were here for his first inaugural speech are gone, including his father, Edmund Brown Sr., who died in 1996. The crowd Monday included two other former governors — Gray Davis, a Democrat, and Arnold Schwarzenegger, a Republican, to whom Brown paid a particularly warm tribute. (Schwarzenegger declined to endorse the Republican nominee for governor, Meg Whitman, in what was widely seen here as a tacit endorsement of Brown.) But there were some striking similarities between Brown’s two inaugurations. Then, as now, California was coming out of a tough recession. One of the main themes of Brown’s first speech was how to deal with joblessness. The unemployment rate in January 1975 was 9.4 percent; it is now 12.4 percent. In 1975, he was succeeding a Republican governor who was a former actor — Ronald Reagan; this time, it was Schwarzenegger, also a former actor. He also presented himself at that time as fiscally conservative and prepared to make cuts in state spending, as he did to a certain extent Monday. That said, Brown spoke for 16 minutes Monday — far longer than the seven minutes at his first inaugural

address. And as grave as things might seem fiscally, he appeared in good humor. At the swearing-in, when the chief justice of the California Supreme Court, Tani Cantil-Sakauye, asked him to attest that he was taking the position without mental reservation, Brown paused and the audience laughed. “Really, no mental reservation,” he said. Brown has kept a decidedly low profile since his election, making only two significant public appearances and only two appointments. He is now moving into a period where he is to begin spelling out some of those painful choices he has talked about. On this day, at least, Brown seemed intent on not making any enemies, promising to impose tough cuts without detailing exactly what may lay ahead, well aware that cuts in programs, or proposed tax increases, would threaten to squander whatever support he enjoyed. For example, for all the talk of budget tightening, he said the state needed to do something to take care of public schools that have been battered by years of cuts, a deep concern of Californians. Yet if there was one dominant theme, it was of a child of California returning to the job he once had with no ambition beyond another term in Sacramento. Or two more terms. At one point, he introduced his aunt, Connie Carlson. He told his audience that she was 99 and waited for the applause to subside. “By the way, those of you hankering after my job?” he said. “It may be awhile. Relax.”

1st transgender trial judge overcame discrimination By Angela Woodall Oakland Tribune

OAKLAND, Calif. — Few county judges command standing ovations before they say a word, nor do they compel hate mail from strangers halfway around the world. Alameda County Superior Court Judge Victoria Kolakowski receives both. She is the first transgender person elected as a trial judge and one of the very few elected to any office. She will be sworn in today at the Oakland Asian Cultural Center. Then she will begin her assignment hearing criminal cases at the Wiley W. Manuel Courthouse. “No, I am not going to be able to get you out of things,” she said jokingly to an audience of transgender advocates on the Transgender Day of Remembrance, two weeks after her upset victory over deputy district attorney John Creighton in November. “But if you come into court and they call you names or the wrong pronoun, then that’s something we can take a look at,” she told the crowd, brushing a lock of brown hair back from her round face. “I’m not trying to turn this into a political statement or promote an agenda.” Instead, she said she finally found the opportunity she had been waiting for. “I had a chance to serve. If my being visible helps a community that is often ignored and looked down upon, then I am happy. If not me, then who?” But it took years of rejection and perseverance to get from Michael Kolakowski to 49-year-old Judge Victoria Kolakowski, even though as a child she hoped and prayed to wake up in a female body. “I guess the prayer was answered,” she said. “But not for a long time afterward.” The fact that she was elected in the same county as transgender teen Gwen Araujo, who was brutally murdered in 2002, sends a reminder of how dangerous being visible can be. Anyone looking for a resemblance

to the drag queen caricatures associated with people who were one sex and became another would be disappointed in Kolakowski. The New York native is a carefully groomed, mildly spoken brunette of average build who usually appears wearing glasses, modest makeup, dark pantsuits and pumps. In other words, she looks a lot like a conservatively dressed judge who might have gained a few pounds with middle age. Kolakowski said she has never “had problems,” using a euphemism for violent incidents aimed against transgender people, including 426 murders worldwide since mid-2008, according to Trans Murder Monitoring Project. But she came close the first time she appeared in public as “Vicky,” short for Victoria, a name she came up with in high school. She was a college student on summer break when she sneaked away at night from her parents’ house on Staten Island. She was heading for a bus stop when a man drove up to her. “Hey, he-she. Come here,” he kept calling. He assumed that she must’ve been working the street just because she was obviously a man dressed as a woman. She had to cross a freeway to get away from him. Looking back, she said she was lucky to have escaped being raped. Kolakowski rushed back home and didn’t mention that night again until years later. Back then, the Internet did not exist, and information about transsexuals was unavailable to minors, Kolakowski said. At Louisiana State University, she finally found some books in the college library about transsexuality and realized that she was not alone. But when she told her parents, they took Kolakowski to the emergency room of the hospital. This started an on-again, off-again series of counseling and therapy that lasted for a decade. Kolakowski eventually married, came out with her wife during law school and began her transition to becoming a woman on April 1, 1989. It

was her last semester at LSU. She was 27. Three years later she underwent surgery to complete her transition to a woman. She was a 30-year old lawyer with five degrees on her resume. So she had no problem attracting job offers — only to be rejected when she walked into the interview. Rejection is one of the commonalities that transgender women and men share, and the pain can run deep. Some of the transgender lawyers Kolakowski knew killed themselves. Kolakowski attributes her resilience to her faith — she also holds a master’s degree in divinity — and the support of “some very loving people.” That includes her parents and her second wife, Cynthia Laird, the news editor of the Bay Area Reporter newspaper. The couple wed in 2006. By then Kolakowski had become an administrative law judge for the California Public Utilities Commission. It wasn’t long before she met with a group of gay attorneys in San Francisco to discuss her possible future as a superior court judge. But she wanted to run for office in Alameda County, where she has lived for 20 years and is among the 500 to 2,000 transgender people in the county. “We needed it more than San Francisco,” Kolakowski said. Her chance to run for the Superior Court bench came in 2008. Araujo’s mother gave her the butterfly pin she wore at her daughter’s murder trials and asked Kolakowski to wear it if elected to the bench. Kolakowski didn’t win but tried again in 2010. “This time things were different, and in June I came in first,” she said. It suddenly became clear that she could become the first transgender person elected to an office. The spotlight turned in her direction because she became a symbol of success for the transgender community. She also has become a target. The more successful you are, the more backlash you are likely to get, she said, “and that backlash can be violent.”

Japan Continued from A1 Now, with the drug still difficult to get, Japanese health professionals and many of the nation’s smokers are grumbling. And Pfizer has given up millions of dollars in potential Chantix sales, at least temporarily, at a time when overseas markets are growing in importance. In the United States, prescriptions for the drug plunged after the Food and Drug Administration warned doctors about psychiatric side effects. “After all that advertising, it turns out they don’t have enough,” said Hiroya Kumamaru, director of the KI Akihabara Clinic in Tokyo, who is turning away patients. His clinic has enough of the drug for only the 80 patients who began their treatment before the supply squeeze. “They should have predicted something like this,” he said. A Pfizer spokesman in Tokyo, Kinji Iwase, said the company misjudged interest in the drug among Japanese smokers. “An extraordinary number of people decided to quit, and our reading of the situation was off,” Iwase said. “We expected more demand, but not to this extent.”

Smoking nation Japan has long been a smokers’ stronghold. Cheap cigarettes sold by a government-controlled tobacco company and lax antismoking laws — smokers have almost total freedom to light up at bars, restaurants and even schools and government offices — have long encouraged the habit. About 130,000 people a year die of tobacco-related illnesses in Japan, according to the World Health Organization. But a growing health consciousness, tighter regulations on tobacco advertising and increasingly strict smoking bans on public transport have contributed to a gradual decline in smoking. The smoking rate for men was 36.6 percent in 2010, 2.3 percentage points lower than a year earlier — though far above the 24 percent smoking rate among men in the United States. The tax increase, prompted by health concerns as well as a need to raise revenue for Japan’s government, was expected to spur an even more sharp and sustained flight from cigarettes. On Oct. 1, the price of a pack of 20

Congress Continued from A1 House Republicans are dominated by 85 freshmen, most loyal to the conservative grass-roots tea party movement. While loosely organized, movement backers want a more limited form of government. “YOURS are the voices that will resonate through the 112th Congress in 2011,” says an Internet message from the Tea Party Patriots group. “On January 5, the new Congress will be sworn in to uphold the Constitution. We must make sure they do it. We must keep a close and careful eye on everything they do, or don’t do.” Michael Franc, the vice president for government relations at the Heritage Foundation, a conservative research center, thinks that tea party strength in the House will be tested within the first 90 to 120 days, particularly on budget matters and on the health care law. “The first 90 to 120 days you’re going to have two potentially gigantic arguments on the size and scope of government,” Franc said. “If you think about it chronologically — how the year will unfold — most of the action will be front-loaded. Among the freshmen, the tea party spirit will be fully imbued in January-February-March-April more than any other time in their congressional careers.” In the Senate, Democrats will have a 53-to-47 majority, down five seats from last month but still enough to give the party a huge say in legislation. Ultimately, analysts and lawmakers expect some spring/summer compromise on the day’s biggest issues. But as the new Congress begins, they’re also watching five key developments to see how they play in America’s heartland:

Reading of the Constitution A major tenet of tea party thought is that lawmakers have been dismissive of the Constitution’s intent, as they’ve expanded the reach of government too far. The House GOP’s “Pledge to America” promises that no one can introduce legislation without a statement “citing as specifically

cigarettes jumped from 300 yen, or about $3.60, to more than 400 yen, including 70 yen in taxes. Ahead of the increase, smokers rushed to stock up; tobacco sales surged 88 percent in September from a year earlier, but slumped 70 percent in October, according to the Tobacco Institute of Japan. Surveys suggest that many smokers here are looking to quit. In one November poll of 1,110 smokers by Rakuten Research, 13.9 percent of respondents said they had stopped smoking, while 15.5 percent said they planned to stop. While sales of nicotine patches and smoking alternatives have risen, Chantix seems to be the preference for smokers trying to stop.

smoking, and posed in posters with a party horn between his fingers instead of his trademark cigarette. Soon, Japanese blogs raved about the new “almighty” drug that would help Japan kick its cigarette habit. (There has been little coverage here of Chantix’s potential side effects.) By August, Pfizer was selling the drug to about 70,000 patients a month in Japan. But that did not prepare the company for the jump in demand related to the tax increase. In September, prescriptions more than doubled to 170,000, and they rose even more in October. On Oct. 12, Pfizer announced that it was stopping shipments of its “starter packs,” and instructed clinics to stop accepting new patients.

Possible side effects

Drug available soon

Introduced in the United States in 2006, Chantix, which works by blocking receptors in the brain and suppressing the positive feelings induced by cigarettes, was initially seen as a global blockbuster. But reports of possible side effects, including aggression and thoughts of suicide, prompted the FDA in 2009 to require the drug to carry the agency’s strongest warning on its packaging. That set off a sharp drop in sales in the United States. Since then, Pfizer has tried to emphasize the benefits of quitting smoking over the risks posed by Chantix, and has stressed that further studies are needed to determine whether the problems are caused by the drug itself or are symptoms of nicotine withdrawal. To make up for lost revenue at home, Pfizer has also looked increasingly to foreign markets. In the first nine months of 2010, while revenue from Chantix in America fell another 16.8 percent to $252 million, sales in the rest of the world grew 22.17 percent to $270 million. Clearing Japan’s drug-approval process in 2008, Pfizer successfully wooed Japanese doctors to prescribe the drug. Japan’s national health insurance covered 70 percent of the 60,000yen cost for a recommended 12week prescription. To stoke public interest, Pfizer started a major ad campaign, starring the slick Hiroshi Tachi, Japan’s answer to the chainsmoking Don Draper of America’s “Mad Men.” Tachi declared that Chantix had helped him quit

Reiko Ono, 33, who has smoked for more than a decade, was one of the last to secure supplies of Champix at a Tokyo clinic. She has completed eight of the 12 weeks of recommended treatment, and has, until now, resisted the urge to light up. “It hasn’t been as difficult as I thought,” Ono said. But many of Ono’s colleagues who sought the drug were told to wait, she said. “I’m lucky I moved quickly,” she said. Particularly irritating to many smokers is that Pfizer had almost a year to prepare for a surge in demand; the tax increase was approved in December 2009. Pfizer is now reassuring would-be customers that they, too, will soon have access to Chantix. This month, the drug maker says, it will have at least 450,000 starter packs available. Health professionals say that further reductions in smoking-related deaths will hinge on whether the government levies further taxes on cigarettes, which remain cheaper than in the United States and Europe, and bucks the influence of Japan Tobacco, still half-owned by the Finance Ministry. The Democratic Party of Japan, which took power last year, has been more proactive in setting a nonsmoking agenda, and some lawmakers are pressing to do much more. “This is just the first step. An ideal scenario is to raise tobacco prices to as much as 1,000 yen,” a Democratic lawmaker, Yoko Komiyama, said. “Whatever it takes to get more people to quit.”

as practicable the power or powers granted to Congress in the Constitution” to enact it. To drive the point home, lawmakers plan to read the Constitution aloud on the House floor Thursday. “One of the resounding themes I have heard from my constituents is that Congress should adhere to the Constitution and the finite list of powers it granted to the federal government,” said Rep. Robert Goodlatte, R-Va., who’s leading the effort. Michael Munger, a professor of political science at Duke University, had a different take: “This is to make the tea party people happy. It’s like a religious ceremony,” he said.

ommendations on budget-cutting rules Tuesday, and the full House is likely to vote Wednesday. Among the changes: Any new mandatory spending would have to be offset by cuts elsewhere. Tax increases wouldn’t be permitted. The first showdown is imminent: Government spending for the current fiscal year, which runs through Sept. 30, expires in early March. Critics, though, find that there’s no agreed-on list of exactly what Republicans want to cut. Asked about specifics, Speaker-designate John Boehner of Ohio said, “We’ll start first by cutting our own budget.” But after that he was vague, saying, “The House will certainly work its will when it comes to how we’re going to cut spending.”

Repealing health care To tea party activists, the 2010 health care law’s mandate that nearly everyone have health insurance coverage or face a penalty is a dangerous extension of federal power. The House decided late Monday that it would vote on the repeal on Jan. 12. “ ‘Obamacare’ failed to lower costs as the president promised that it would and does not allow people to keep the care they currently have if they like it. That is why the House will repeal it next week,” Brad Dayspring, a spokesman for Majority Leader-elect Eric Cantor, R-Va., said Monday. No one expects a repeal to stick, since 60 votes are needed to overcome a Senate filibuster and two-thirds majorities of members of Congress present in both chambers would be required to override an Obama veto. But the House debate and vote could provide important clues about how Republicans would replace the current system. “How would they subsidize lower-income people? And how do they provide incentives for healthy people to get coverage?” asked Paul Ginsburg, the president of the Center for Studying Health System Change, an independent research group.

Paring the budget House Republicans have vowed to cut $100 billion from the budget and cut spending back to 2008-09 levels. They’re expected to make rec-

Raising the debt limit The government is expected to hit its $14.3 trillion debt limit early this year. Unless that number is raised, Washington would be unable to borrow, and thus unable to pay for government services. The idea of authorizing more debt is anathema to many conservatives. Larry Sabato, a professor of politics at the University of Virginia, thought that congressional Republicans and Democrats and the White House could forge a deal on raising the limit, something that some tea party-backed lawmakers have spoken against. “There are some tea party members who would welcome a government shutdown, but most wouldn’t,” he said.

Rules on debate Frustrated by Republicans using the filibuster — extended debate — to block or slow legislation from coming to the Senate floor, some Senate Democrats plan to propose on Wednesday changing the way the chamber conducts its business. The House will vote Friday on its own rules for debate. Senate Democrats intend to propose making it easier to formally consider legislation. Senators also are seeking an elimination of so-called secret holds, which allow them to anonymously block the consideration of presidents’ nominees for Cabinet, judicial, diplomatic and other posts.

Australia rushes aid to flooded towns By Aubrey Belford and Kevin Drew New York Times News Service

MELBOURNE, Australia — The death toll from severe flooding in northeastern Australia rose to at least nine Monday as the authorities airlifted supplies to communities facing raging waters that were expected to swell further over the next two days. One more person was reported missing and presumed dead, according to a spokeswoman for the police in the state of Queensland. The military flew supplies into Rockhampton, a town of about 75,000, as water from the Fitzroy River spilled into streets, public buildings and homes. The local airport and the main highway to the state capital of Brisbane were closed, according to a spokeswoman for the Queensland Police Service, forcing troops to fly into a nearby communi-

ty and truck in fresh food, water and other supplies. By early Tuesday, only one road to the town of Rockhampton was still open, as a rising expanse of brown water submerged the final road in and out of town, the police said. Heavy rains began falling nearly two weeks ago as Cyclone Tasha crashed along the coast, drenching Queensland, a farming and cattle region. At least 200,000 people in an area the size of France and Germany have been affected by the flooding, according to Paul Birch, senior hydrologist at the Bureau of Meteorology. While the rainfall has lessened, the authorities warned that the floodwaters would not peak until today or Wednesday. “We’re still getting warnings over thunderstorms, flash floods and hailstones,” said a Queensland police spokeswoman. “This is far from over.” Emergency response authorities in Queensland said it could

take months to recover from the floods. Prime Minister Julia Gillard extended emergency relief to communities affected by the waters, and she acknowledged that the damage from the floods might run into hundreds of millions of dollars. “This is a major natural disaster, and recovery will take a significant amount of time,” Gillard said at a news conference. The Queensland premier, Anna Bligh, called for an emergency Cabinet meeting to be held Wednesday. “As Queensland faces its toughest hour, the Cabinet will meet to immediately begin the significant rebuilding process,” she said. Queensland emergency officials, quoted by the local news media, said floodwaters in Rockhampton stood at roughly 30 feet and risked rising to levels not seen since 1918. More than 3,000 volunteers were helping at 17 evacuation centers across Queensland, police officials said.

U.S.-funded infrastructure deteriorates once under Afghan control, report says By Josh Boak The Washington Post

Roads, canals and schools built in Afghanistan as part of a special U.S. military program are crumbling under Afghan stewardship, despite new steps imposed over the past year to ensure reconstruction money is not being wasted, according to government reports and interviews with military and civilian personnel. U.S. troops in Afghanistan have spent $2 billion in the past six years on 16,000 humanitarian projects through the Commander’s Emergency Response Program (CERP), which gives a battalion-level commander the power to treat aid dollars as ammunition. A report slated for release this month reveals how quickly CERP projects can slide into neglect after being transferred to Afghan control. The Afghans had problems maintaining about half of the 69 projects reviewed in eastern Afghanistan’s Laghman

province, according to an audit by the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR). Dilapidated projects could present a challenge to the U.S. strategy of shifting more responsibility to Afghans. Investing in infrastructure, notes President Obama’s December review of the war, “will give the Afghan government and people the tools to build and sustain a future of stability.” “Sustainment is one of the biggest issues with our whole strategy,” said a civilian official who shared details from a draft of the report. “The Afghans don’t have the money or capacity to sustain much.” Photos in the report show washed-out roads, with gashes and potholes where improvised

explosive devices can be hidden. Among the projects profiled is a re-dredged canal that filled with silt a month after opening. The official requested anonymity because the Defense Department is preparing a response to the audit. Multiple reports by the Government Accountability Office have noted the lack of monitoring by the Pentagon. And because formal U.S. oversight stops after a project is turned over to Afghans, it is hard to gauge how projects are maintained countrywide.

Birds Continued from A1 At a laboratory filled with wind tunnels, high-speed cameras, lasers, surgical equipment and a device that generates clouds of olive oil, they and several graduate students try to divine the secrets of bird flight. The laboratory, at Fort Missoula, was once a stable for the U.S. Cavalry. What makes it unique as a lab, though, is its location in the wilderness of western Montana, with bald eagles, peregrine falcons, meadowlarks, ducks and other wild birds in the mountains and rivers right out the door. Dial says some of his most important observations have been made watching a bird glide by while he is fly fishing, and then heading back to the lab with a new theory to test. After observing woodpeckers in the lab’s wind tunnel both flying and “bounding” — gliding missilelike with their wings tucked, a behavior not previously identified in these birds — Tobalske was able to see the same gliding a few hundred yards out the door, which confirmed it was not a product of lab conditions. One key to the insights here is a small, dark room with two 1,000-frames-per-second cameras, developed by the military to study ballistics, which slow high-speed action in high resolution. Wild birds in flight are misted with a fog of vaporized olive oil, which is illuminated by a green strobing laser operating in tandem with the camera. The system allows researchers to track the movement of misty air around the birds, showing where they are generating lift and drag. It led to the discovery here of a vortex on the leading edge of bird wings, which adds to a bird’s lift. The birds, ranging from delicate diamond doves to burly ravens, have crystal sensors surgically implanted in their pectorals and elsewhere that measure muscle contractions as they fly. “Pectorals are the motor for 80 percent of flight,” said Tobalske. “That’s how birds generate enormous power and can resist fatigue, and why some can fly from one pole to the other” without stopping. Birds are also put in wind tunnels and photographed at high speed so researchers can see in detail how they perform at 20 miles per hour or more. They are also fitted with tiny masks that measure metabolism.

COCC Continued from A1 Multop hopes this would prevent students finding themselves cut off of financial aid. “What we’re really trying to do is find something that really helps students stay out of trouble,” he said. “(We want to) evaluate the steps to get them back on track.” Officials hope to make a final decision on any changes by the time the spring term starts in March. “Because this affects the entire campus, we need to meet with all the stakeholders on campus that can be affected,” Multop said. “We need to meet with the instructional deans who represent all the departments, we need to get their feedback and thoughts on how this will affect students.” Sophia Dixon, 42, is in the midst of earning her two-year degree in health information technology. She finished the medical assistant program last year. Dixon, who commutes from Prineville to COCC for classes, thinks many students are under the impression that the financial aid evaluations take place on a term-by-term basis already. But either way, she supports a regular evaluation of how financial-aid students are performing in their classes. “It keeps them on top of things, it keeps them ahead of the game,” she said. “It should be every term. I don’t think students want to be on probation.” Student Tyler King, 23, agreed. “I think it’s good to keep up every term,” he said. King’s friend Jesse Earls, 26 and also a student, believes it’s fair for students to lose financial aid if they’re not keeping their grades up. But he thinks any students should be able to take out federal loans, whether they’re meeting the requirements or not. Grants, he said, are different. “With loans, it should be up to you,” Earls said. “But (Pell Grant) money is like free money. You shouldn’t get it if you don’t do your work.” Sheila G. Miller can be reached at 541-617-7831 or at smiller@bendbulletin.com.

“This has been a classic area of research since Leonardo da Vinci,” said Richard Prum, a professor of ornithology and ecology and evolutionary biology at Yale. “Functional morphology is being left behind in a lot of places, but it’s important and they are doing some great stuff.” Work at the Montana lab, Prum said, has led people to realize how complex flight is and how many different things are happening when a bird flies. “What they have discovered is that bird flight is like Muhammad Ali boxing, with 15 different movements,” he said. For example, birds clap their wings together at the peak of the upstroke during takeoff and rotate their wings on the way down to get lift. “The wings suck in air, like a fan,” Tobalske said, “and

C OV ER S T OR I ES create a jet of air below it traveling at 10 miles per hour.” The most astounding fliers, in Tobalske’s opinion, are the world’s 9,000 or so species of hummingbirds, which, largely because of their size, have mastered flight like no other bird. The calliope hummingbird weighs only as much as two paper clips, yet it migrates annually between Canada and Mexico. “The smaller the bird, the more viscous the air is,” he said, which is partly why hummingbirds can maneuver so well and for so long. They have evolved with greatly shortened wing bones, as well as large pectorals that allow them to beat their wings 80 times a second. “A hummingbird can hover like a helicopter for one and a half hours, nonstop,” Tobalske

said. “No other bird can do that.” By comparison, pigeons produce one-tenth the number of strokes. Sensors show that a hummingbird’s wing flaps so fast that the brain is generating the muscle signal for the downbeat of its wing while the wing is still going up. As far as birds informing human flight techniques, Dial said he believes the future of human flight will incorporate birds’ remarkable shape-shifting abilities. “Birds are constantly morphing, and morphing on different levels,” he said. “A bird can look like a bullet, and two milliseconds later looks like a hang glider,” Dial said. “We have a lot more to learn about that. Imagine a 747 blasting off its wings and tail to become a bullet.”

B U S I N E SS IN BRIEF Bank of America, Ally settle for $3.3B LOS ANGELES — Bank of America Corp. and Ally Financial Inc. have agreed to pay a combined $3.3 billion to settle remaining demands that they repurchase soured mortgages from Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, the giant home-loan buyers that wound up wards of the government during the financial crisis. The claims stem from alleged misrepresentations made about borrowers’ incomes, home values and other factors when Ally, formerly known as GMAC, and Bank of America, which includes the former Countrywide Financial Corp., sold the loans to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The two government-sponsored enterprises back most of the home loans made in the United States. The settlements won’t directly affect consumers. They do not cover breaches of promises made to investors about handling of mortgage customer service or the processing of foreclosures, said the Federal Housing Finance Agency, which oversees Fannie and Freddie.

Holiday tourism reports strong for Central Oregon Industry leaders say turnout was better than expected By Ed Merriman The Bulletin

Mt. Bachelor ski area recorded the earliest 100-inch snow base in more than a decade during the Christmas through New Year’s holiday break, luring skiers and snowboarders who flocked to the mountain and packed into motels, shops and restaurants in Bend and across Central Oregon. “The holiday season started out re-

ally snowy. We got 5 feet of snow in five days,” said Andy Goggins, Mt. Bachelor’s communications director. “All of our terrain was open, and all 71 runs and 11 lifts were busy. We had skiing off the summit and back side of the summit. We had good crowds throughout the weekend.” Alana Audette, president and CEO of the Central Oregon Visitors Association, said COVA conducted a pre-holiday survey on Dec. 17 that showed bookings at

that point were flat to slightly above the same period in 2009, but a post-holiday survey conducted Monday showed bookings increased by as much as 14 percent to 15 percent for many of the region’s motels and other lodging establishments located outside Bend. Motel and resort operators told Audette many of the last-minute bookings were made within seven to 14 days of the stay. Motels at the low end tended to have flat bookings, with most of the increase reported by upper-end establishments. See Tourism / B5

WASHINGTON — The U.S. manufacturing sector grew in December at its fastest pace in seven months, marking the 17th straight month of expansion, according to a closely followed index issued Monday. The Institute for Supply Management said its index of factory activity rose to 57.0 percent in December from 56.6 percent the prior month — the highest level since last May. Readings over 50 percent indicate that more firms are growing than contracting. — From wire reports

Bill Fleming holds 1-ounce silver coins in his Bend office on Thursday.

A COIN MAN’S GOLDEN GIG Bill Fleming has been working on his collection since he was 9 According to Bill Fleming, the money business has been a moneymaker for decades, and, indeed, it continues to be so. For 30 years, Fleming and his wife, Michelle, have made a business out of buying and selling coins and jewelry in Bend. These days Bill Fleming Coin & Jewelry operates by appointment only, but over all these years he has not once had to take a second job; the primary operation has always kept him afloat, he said. Fleming and his family moved to Bend in 1980 after the cannery where he worked in Astoria closed. His wife’s parents were living in Bend at the time,

Manufacturing grows

By Miguel Helft

Analysts expect oil prices to jump LONDON — Oil demand increasing at almost twice the pace of supply is spurring the most-accurate forecasters to predict the second-highest price on record in 2011. Sanford C. Bernstein & Co., whose estimate last January was within 1 percent of 2010’s mean price of $79.60 a barrel, says crude will average $90 this year. Natixis Bleichroeder Inc., which tied with Bernstein, sees $100 a barrel, 26 percent higher than in 2010. While economic growth in China, the world’s biggest energy consumer, will slow to 9 percent this year from 10 percent, that would still be three times the rate in the United States’ and six times Europe’s, according to the median estimate in Bloomberg surveys of economists. As oil prices rise, spare production capacity may drop the most since 2003 as exporters including the 12 members of OPEC boost supply, according to Bernstein.

DETROIT — Could driving a minivan, the ultimate embodiment of the suburban family vehicle, ever be considered cool? The automakers are trying mightily to persuade us. In marketing campaigns featuring heavy-metal theme songs, rapping parents, secret agents in cat masks, pyrotechnics and even Godzilla, minivan makers are trying to recast the muchridiculed kidmobile as something that parents can be proud — or at least unashamed — of driving. Toyota led the effort early this year with a campaign for its Sienna model

that features a self-indulgent couple rapping about rolling through the culde-sacs with their posse of kids in their “Swagger Wagon.” “The stories we heard were, ‘I just don’t want to be seen in a minivan. I don’t like being the soccer-mom joke or feeling like I’ve given up all trace of my identity to be a parent,’ ” said Richard Bame, Toyota’s national marketing manager for trucks and minivans. Other automakers have jumped on the theme, too. For example, in a series of ads that began this fall, Honda claims its 2011 Odyssey “beckons like no van before.” See Minivan / B5

SAN FRANCISCO — In Silicon Valley, going public used to be the ultimate rite of passage for a startup — a sign it had arrived. No more. With its $500 million infusion from Goldman Sachs and other investors, Facebook is now flush with cash and a market value of about $50 billion, giving it the financial muscle it needs to compete with better-heeled Mark rivals like Zuckerberg Google. And Facebook hopes for an even bigger advantage from the deal, the ability to delay an initial public offering. That would allow it to remain free of government regulation and from the volatility of Wall Street. It would also allow Mark Zuckerberg, the company’s chief executive, to retain nearabsolute control over the company he co-founded in a Harvard dorm room in 2004. This strategy was unthinkable in Silicon Valley just a few years ago, when hundreds of startups with scant revenue and no profits, like Pets.com and Webvan, raced to go public, and investors lined up to buy their shares. Lots of people would stand in line to buy shares in Facebook, but for now, only an exclusive few — wealthy clients of Goldman Sachs — will be able to. See Facebook / B2

States look to diminish influence of unions By Steven Greenhouse New York Times News Service

Faced with growing budget deficits and restive taxpayers, elected officials from Maine to Alabama, Ohio to Arizona, are pushing new legislation to limit the power of labor unions, particularly those representing government workers, in collective bargaining and politics. State officials from both parties are wrestling with ways to curb the salaries and pensions of government employees, which typically make up a significant percentage of state budgets. On Wednesday, for example, New York’s new Democratic governor, Andrew Cuomo, is expected to call for a one-year salary freeze for state workers, a move that would save $200 million to $400 million and challenge labor’s traditional clout in Albany. But in some cases — mostly in states with Republican governors and Republican statehouse majorities — officials are seeking more far-reaching, structural changes that would weaken the bargaining power and political influence of unions, including private sector ones.

Fiat may raise Chrysler stake to 51% By David Jolly New York Times News Service

Fiat’s chief executive, Sergio Marchionne, said Monday that it might seek to raise its stake in Chrysler Group to 51 percent before Chrysler’s initial public offering, which is planned for this year. “If Chrysler is listed this year, we should think about speeding up the option of increasing our stake in Chrysler,” Reuters quot-

Facebook Continued from B1 On Monday, Goldman emailed certain clients, offering them the chance to invest in the company. That offer is the latest sign of the emergence of active markets in the shares of closely held companies. Those markets are helping successful startups like Facebook develop the financial wherewithal to compete in the big leagues of business. They have also become an avenue for venture capitalists and startup employees to cash in their stock, turning many overworked engineers into instant millionaires. And so a young mogul like Zuckerberg, the world’s youngest billionaire at age 26, can enjoy many of the benefits of going public without having to tie the knot with Wall Street. Other hot technology companies like Twitter, Zynga and Groupon are also tapping secondary markets to keep stock market investors at bay. They are in no rush to go public and no longer need the bragging rights that a stock offering used to bestow. “This is a topsy-turvy world,” said Scott Dettmer, a founding partner of Gunderson Dettmer, a law firm that has advised venture capitalists, startups and entrepreneurs since the 1980s. He added that even a few years ago, “there were all sorts of business reasons to go public, but for entrepreneurs it was also a badge of honor.”

Perhaps more than any company founder, Zuckerberg, who declined to comment for this article, has frequently expressed his disinterest in Wall Street, although Facebook is clearly not above taking its cash. He passed on opportunities to make a killing, for example, when, at age 22, he rejected billion-dollar offers for Facebook. “Mark would absolutely prefer not have an IPO until he absolutely has to,” said David Kirkpatrick, the author of “The Facebook Effect.” “He absolutely doesn’t want to sacrifice control because he believes that his vision is necessary to keep powering the company forward.” Zuckerberg’s quest to keep Facebook private, though, will not last forever. Federal regulations require companies with

ed Marchionne as saying at the Milan stock exchange. But he said Fiat, the Italian automaker, was not planning “today” to merge the two companies. Marchionne was speaking as Fiat Industrial and the Fiat auto business made their trading debuts as separate entities. The move freed Marchionne to seek greater integration with Chrysler or find partners to reach his goal of creating a globally com-

petitive automaker. Analysts have cheered the decision to separate Fiat SpA (a joint-stock company), as the auto unit is formally known, from Fiat Industrial SpA, which includes Iveco trucks and CNH Global agricultural machinery, arguing that the value of the parts is greater than that of the whole. The two businesses, based in Turin, were formally separated on Jan. 1.

500 or more investors to disclose their financial results, eliminating one of the principal advantages of staying private. The Goldman Sachs investment, for a stake of less than 1 percent in the company, is formulated in part to skirt those rules. But it may help for only a limited amount of time. The Securities and Exchange Commission is investigating private company trades in secondary markets, and regulators may decide that what is good for Facebook is not necessarily good for the investing public. Still, the huge cash infusion is a coup both for Zuckerberg, who is said to own about a quarter of the company, and Facebook. The deal gives the company cash to hire employees or build data centers. It also puts Facebook, which makes most of its money through advertising, on a path to surpass Google, by some measures, as the most successful Internet company to come out of Silicon Valley. Facebook is on track to bring in as much as $2 billion in revenue this year. The deal with Goldman values Facebook at nearly twice the $27 billion that Google was worth after its first day as a public company in August 2004. Google did not cross the $50 billion mark until about six months later. The two companies have become enemies, but their founders share a deep suspicion of Wall Street, born in part from witnessing the devastation that followed the dot-com bubble. Like Zuckerberg, the founders of Google, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, set up two classes of shares, which kept them in control after the public offering. They also vowed not to be beholden to short-term investors. Zuckerberg is exhibiting many of the same misgivings about the stock market. Zuckerberg has frequently demurred when asked about an eventual public offering. One of Facebook’s earliest investors said recently that the company would not go public before 2012.

between investors, closely held companies, their investors and their employees have been able to sell their shares to others. For startups today, that has opened new options to going public. “Companies have financing alternatives that they didn’t have,” said Marc Bodnick, a managing partner at Elevation Partners, which invested in Facebook in the last year. Those alternatives have become more attractive for companies, in part because of the increased regulations imposed on public companies but also because of the rise in short-term trading, which leaves some executives feeling they have lost control of their companies. Ben Horowitz, a partner with Andreessen Horowitz, a venture capital firm, said the cost of being a public company had risen to about $5 million a year, from about $1 million a year. Horowitz, an early employee of Netscape, said that such costs would have eaten into the meager profits of the pioneering Internet company when it went public in 1995. Additionally, accounting and legal requirements have become distractions for many startups, said Horowitz, whose firm is an investor in Facebook. Those distractions are bothersome for strong-willed entrepreneurs like Zuckerberg. “If you’re 30 years old and you think you’re building a business that’s going to be a 100-year-old business, what year you’re public doesn’t really matter,” Bodnick said. “But if you think the steps you’re taking are laying the groundwork to long-term strategic growth, it’s good to be quiet, it’s good to be out of the light.” Still, some experts say that the option to remain private is a luxury that only few startups will be able to enjoy. “Things have changed dramatically for the 2 percent of companies that stand out from the pack like Facebook,” said Lise Buyer, the principal of the Class V Group, which advises private companies about going public. Buyer, a former Google executive who was involved in its public offering, added: “If you are a semiconductor, or a biotech company, or an enterprise software company, you are not going to have investors throwing money at you without any disclosure.”

New alternatives But Zuckerberg is benefiting from the fast-growing market for trading in the shares of privately held tech companies, which the Google founders did not have. Through private exchanges like Secondmarket and Sharespost, and through direct transactions

Unions Continued from B1 For example, Republican lawmakers in Indiana, Maine, Missouri and seven other states plan to introduce legislation that would bar private sector unions from forcing workers they represent to pay dues or fees, reducing the flow of funds into union treasuries. In Ohio, the new Republican governor, following the precedent of many other states, wants to ban strikes by public school teachers. Some new governors, most notably Scott Walker of Wisconsin, are even threatening to take away government workers’ right to form unions and bargain contracts. “We can no longer live in a society where the public employees are the haves and taxpayers who foot the bills are the have-nots,” Walker, a Republican, said in a speech. “The bottom line is that we are going to look at every legal means we have to try to put that balance more on the side of taxpayers.” Many of the proposals may never become law. But those that do are likely to reduce union influence in election campaigns, with reverberations for both parties. In the 2010 elections, Republicans emerged with seven more governor’s mansions and won control of the legislature in 26 states, up from 14. That swing has put unions more on the defensive than they have been in decades. But it is not only Republicans who are seeking to rein in unions. In addition to Cuomo, California’s new Democratic governor, Jerry Brown, is promising to review the benefits received by government workers in his state, which faces a more than $20 billion budget shortfall over the next 18 months. “We will also have to look at our system of pensions and how to ensure that they are transparent and actuarially sound and fair — fair to the workers and fair to the taxpayers,” Brown said in his inaugural speech Monday.

Political retaliation? Many of the state officials pushing for union-related changes say they want to restore some balance, arguing that unions have become too powerful, skewing political campaigns with their large war chests and throwing state budgets off kilter with their expensive pension plans. But labor leaders view these efforts as political retaliation by Republicans upset that unions recently spent more than $200 million to defeat Republican candidates. “I see this as payback for the role we played in the 2010 elections,” said Gerald McEntee, president of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, the main union of state employees. McEntee said in October that his union was spending more than $90 million on the campaign, largely to help Democrats. Labor leaders, who argue that government employees are not overpaid, worry that many of these measures have a much better chance of enactment than in previous years because of Republican electoral gains and a reduction in sympathy for government workers from taxpayers ravaged by the recession. The AFL-CIO warned labor leaders, “With the enormous losses in state legislatures around the country, we will face not only more attacks on working families and their unions — we will face more serious attacks, particularly in the formerly blue or purple states that are now controlled by a Republican trifecta.” Naomi Walker, the AFLCIO’s director of state government relations, said many voters would oppose the antiunion efforts. “I think folks in these states are going to ask whether this is the right time to weaken unions when corporations are amassing more power than ever,” she said. “We’ve been fighting against privatizing Social Security and sending jobs offshore and to get the best deal for the unemployed. It would be a lot easier for Republicans if unions weren’t there to throw up these roadblocks.”

T F Computer makers vow to challenge iPad By Joshua Brustein New York Times News Service

Welcome to the year of the tablet. Again. Last year was supposed to be the year manufacturers would wow consumers with offerings of all sorts of tablet computers. Steve Ballmer, Microsoft’s chief executive, took the stage in January at the International Consumer Electronics Show, the industry’s premier trade show, and displayed three devices that he said would be on sale in the months ahead.

Dozens of smaller companies laid out their own tablet plans at the show. But few of these promises came to fruition; none of Microsoft’s tablets ever showed up in stores. Instead, in April, Apple’s iPad came out. And the year became the Year of the iPad. This year, manufacturers are promising it will be different, saying that after the success of the iPad, they have learned a lot about what consumers want in a tablet. “We could have done this a

What’s in store for technology in 2011? By Omar L. Gallaga C ox N ewspapers

AUSTIN, Texas — In the world of tech, 2010 was the year we got hopelessly addicted to our magic smart-phone screens, fell in love with Apple’s iPad, learned it was futile to fight the ubiquity of Facebook and put away our DVDs to stream video straight from the Internet with the help of Netflix. For 2011, those trends will continue, but there’ll be a few rough transitions and surprises. Here’s what I see ahead in technology this year. T a b lets and readers take over: In 2010, the iPad dazzled and the Amazon Kindle e-book reader dropped in price to $139. The success of both products has opened up a floodgate of competitors hoping to hop into the hands of users ready to buy books, movies and apps. Apple will introduce a new version of the iPad early in the year with a sharper screen and cameras built in and, by year’s end, you might even see some versions of the iPad available for $200 to $300. The Kindle will dip below $99 as Amazon readies a color version. The price drops will push sales through the roof for both sets of devices, and competitors like Dell, Samsung and Microsoft will have to follow suit. Touch-screen tablets that double as color e-book readers will be everywhere — cheap, readily available and more powerful than most current netbooks. Facebook gets into your wallet: Facebook already makes a mint in online ads and virtual items, but it will become increasingly business-focused, allowing you to pay bills, track your finances (maybe it will acquire Intuit and its Mint.com service?) and shop without ever leaving the social network. Speaking of the “Social Network,” the movie based on the founding of Facebook will win the Best Picture Academy Award in March, much to founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg’s chagrin. SXSW Interactive tries not to sprawl: Last year, South by Southwest Interactive grew so much that it surpassed paid registration for SXSW Music for the first time. For 2011’s event in March, the festival is trying to keep a handle on growth by raising registration fees, adding a tech summit that takes place just after Interactive and cracking down more aggressively on unaffiliated events that trade on the SXSW name. If the festival feels too crowded or watered down, expect a backlash from bloggers, Twitter celebrities and the tech press. Networks vs. carriers vs. Netflix: The huge growth DVD rental company Netflix had in 2010 will lead to a war with movie and TV studios over video-

streaming fees as the company continues to move away from DVDs in favor of Internet video streaming. Netflix also will battle with cable and satellite providers who’ll have to choose whether to offer Netflix on their set-top boxes or compete with their own video-on-demand offerings. The public battles that cable and satellite companies wage with companies like Viacom and Fox will get uglier, lengthier and cause more frequent channel blackouts for customers. Netflix, inevitably, will look like a better and better alternative as its streaming library grows. Coupons and location, a marriage made in heaven: The success of group-buying services like Groupon, the buzz of location-based social networks like Foursquare and Gowalla and the inevitability of using our smart phones for discounts finally will cohere somehow when somebody figures out how to do it right. Will Facebook or Groupon crack the code? That part’s unclear, but someone in 2011 will figure out how to tie it all together in an elegant, fun and engaging way to deliver coupons and discounts you want depending on where you are. So long, keyboards and mice: Touch-screen tablets and phones and gesture-control devices like Microsoft’s Xbox 360 Kinect have ushered in an era of ever-cheaper ways to control our gadgets without keyboards and mice. As we get more comfortable talking, waving, tapping and gesturing to interact with our tech, we’ll find our desktop computer setups more constricting and limiting. Kids, of course, will begin to wonder how we ever got along with such clunky old hardware. 3-D, minus the glasses: 3-D will take off in the home, but not because of pricey, impractical big-screen TVs and 3-D glasses. Instead, Nintendo’s 3DS, a portable game console due out in March, will pull off 3-D gaming without glasses, and 3-D for gaming and on cell phones will make us eager to get rid of the glasses for other kinds of 3-D tech in the home. The Great App Store Shakeout: There are too many apps for too many different kinds of cell phones and too many app developers trying to get rich in the gold rush. Even as we keep buying devices and apps and as Apple introduces an App Store for its computers, the market won’t hold up. Among app companies, there’ll be a lot of consolidation, an abandoning of some platforms (my prediction: BlackBerry and Palm will go hungry for great app development) — and, increasingly, brand-name app companies like Rovio (“Angry Birds,” “Cut the Rope”) that consistently put out great apps.

“You can build these devices, which is great, but it’s no longer enough to say, ‘OK, you have the Internet.’ You need developers.” — Mark Donovan, analyst, comScore year ago and rushed it out, but it wouldn’t have had the right features,” said Phil Osako, director of product marketing at Toshiba, which is introducing a new tablet at this year’s show, which begins

Thursday in Las Vegas. At this year’s show, Research In Motion and Hewlett-Packard are expected to show off tablet computers, while scheduled appearances by executives at Motorola

and Microsoft are widely thought to be coming-out parties for their companies’ devices. More than 24 million tablet computers are projected to be sold in the United States this year, up from 10.3 million in 2010, according to Forrester. IDC, another research firm, expects to see 42 million tablet sales worldwide in 2011. As of October, Apple had sold 7.46 million iPads worldwide, according to the company’s last reported figures. It had virtually no competitors all year, until the

Samsung Galaxy Tab became available in November. Samsung says it has sold 1.5 million Galaxy Tabs since then. Apple’s experience with the iPad has also shown that consumers place a high value on the number and quality of apps. “You can build these devices, which is great, but it’s no longer enough to say, ‘OK, you have the Internet,’ ” said Mark Donovan, an analyst with comScore, a market research organization. “You need developers.”

Continued from B1 Where were you getting the coins? When I was a kid, it was a matter of first just finding ’em in change. You could find a lot of things in change back then.

Q: A: Q: A:

Like what?

Like, you know, buffalo nickels, for example. … When I was a kid, you’d get those occasionally. They were just starting to disappear from circulation, but you can still find some, and when I found ’em, and … it was a date I needed, I put it in my book … and then, as they say, if you find another one with the same date and mint mark, it’s an upgrade, and (you) take one out and put it in there. I would do the same thing with pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters — had all the books for ’em. … And then I think when I was about 13 or 14, I lived in Spokane (Wash.) and I started going to the coin shops to buy coins when I had extra money, you know, the ones that I couldn’t find.

Q: A:

Just the semi-key dates, … the semi-rare dates that I couldn’t find in circulation. … You don’t necessarily know what you’re looking for, but you’ll know it when you see it, type of thing. Other times … I got the money for a specific date. And it was just, you know, like a 1950-D Jefferson nickel was out that I had to buy and, yeah, a lot of other … ones that you wouldn’t find in circulation today. But back then you at least had a shot. And … if I found it, it was only costing me a penny, a penny out of my pocket, I could afford that — or a nickel, or whatever.

Why do you think there is more interest in gold in recent years? I guess it’s a simple answer: People are buying it. … Gold has become more and more mainstream, and so a lot more people are buying it, and they’re buying a lot of it. … It takes its cue from John Q. (Public), is a way to put it.

What kind of coins were you looking for?

Tourism Continued from B1 “Many of our holiday bookings come from people in Oregon and Washington who are watching the weather patterns and road conditions,” Audette said. “If people are driving here to ski, they want to make sure the ski conditions are going to be optimal, and that driving conditions aren’t going to pose them any problem getting here or getting home.” Plentiful snow on the mountain also boosted business at restaurants, brewpubs and tour companies. “The snow brought some travelers over the mountains this year, that’s for sure,” said James Meskill, general manager at Deschutes Brewery in Bend. “We had a lot of big groups — a lot of family vacationers,” Meskill said. Dave Nissen, co-owner of Wanderlust Tours of Bend, which leads snowshoeing tours in the region, said business was up 33 percent during the 2010 Christmas vacation period, compared with the 2009 holiday season. “Between 60 and 70 percent of

Is your line of business recession-proof? Well, it seems to be so far, because … with the recession and the economy, basically the way it is, it’s only been busier for gold and silver. They’re in a hot market right now, and it’s partly because of the dollar and the recession, and people are buying it.

Q: A:

yeah.

Q: A:

What if this wouldn’t provide enough money for you to make a living? Oh, yeah, I mean, there’s been slow periods. Probably in the ’90s … (it was) real slow. It’s like, well, this might have to be part time. … I’ve thought a few times I would need to get a part-time job in the evening, you know, to help supplement the business. … I’ve never done it but I’ve thought I might have to.

Q: A:

Is coin collecting in general a dying pursuit? No. It’s been going up. … The U.S. Mint … I think got the whole thing revved up. It was already pre-heated up, but with the state-quarter program, it meant for the

our clients come from Oregon, Washington or California, but as I scanned through the reservations, it surprised me how many clients we had this season from Virginia, Maryland, Illinois, Florida, Texas and Arizona,” Nissen said. However, the biggest increase was in people from the Willamette Valley, he said. “Oregon has been hit pretty hard by the economic decline, so I am very glad people from Oregon are feeling confident enough in the economy to entertain the family,” Nissen said. “A fun thing was we had a huge increase in our moonlight and starlight snowshoe tours, including a New Year’s Eve bonfire tour where we saw a most impressive shooting star that left an image of its tail across the sky for 20 minutes.” Rob Weston, a server and bartender at Scanlon’s restaurant in Bend, estimated business was up about a third over the 2009 Christmas to New Year’s holiday season. “I would say it was a combination of locals and tourists,” Weston said. “We definitely saw a lot more tourists, some locals we have seen before, and some

Q: A:

Why do you think John Q. got into it? There’s two different reasons. One is, make money. Buy it now, and it’s gonna go up. The other is, gold’s always been considered an asset. You can buy and hold and preserve your wealth. … The U.S. dollar isn’t doing well … and it’s being printed like crazy, and the value is down, and people have been burned in the stock market. So … that’s the type of people that are … turning to gold for the first time, and other people that have been buying gold for a long time are buying more. …

Have you let go of any coins that you had an emotional attachment to? I’ve had coins that I thought were, when I first started 30 years ago, … really, really cool, and I … put ’em in the back burner … not just sell ’em off. But, you know, it’s actually one of those things … if you’ve never sold coins, well, it’s the first time where as a dealer you’ve got to sell coins, because you’ve got to keep the cash flow. So the first few times are hard, but after that it gets simpler. And after 30 years, I don’t really get too attached to anything … like I used to.

locals we have never seen before who heard about us and came in to celebrate the holidays.” Another encouraging trend in COVA’s lodging survey showed much of the last-minute surge was for upscale accommodations, which indicates people are feeling more confident about spending on travel and tourism. “While consumers continued to look for deals, the survey showed people are willing to upgrade to luxury hotels, resort condos and luxury vacation homes,” Audette said. “People are returning to their travel habits that are more consistent with what we saw in 2007-2008, pre-recession.” An actual tally of room-tax collections allocated to COVA for December won’t be completed until the first week of February, but Audette is confident the tax revenues will be up, based on the surveys. Doug La Placa, president and CEO of Visit Bend, the city’s tourism-promotion agency, said plentiful snow at Mt. Bachelor and at Hoodoo ski area northwest of Sisters drew skiers and snowboarders to area motels. “Early indications are it was a good December from a tourism

perspective in Bend,” La Placa said. He said city room-tax revenues have been up for 12 consecutive months, including a projected 4 percent to 7 percent increase for November numbers to be announced later this week, and La Placa expects December lodging taxes to show that trend continuing. December 2009 was a very strong month for tourism, with lodging tax revenues up 22.8 percent over 2008, but La Placa cited several reasons why he believes the tax tallies will show December 2010 was even better. “We had a general rebound in tourism and occupancy rates, attendance at the cyclocross event held the first two weeks of December was up slightly over last year, and we got strong reports from Mt. Bachelor ski resort over the holidays,” La Placa said. “We see a very positive outlook for Bend tourism. It continues to outpace the state and nation. We are very optimistic Bend tourism is going to continue to do well,” he said. Ed Merriman can be reached at 541-617-7820 or emerriman@ bendbulletin.com.

Oregon health officials announced Monday that a salmonella outbreak linked to clover sprouts produced by a Washington company has sickened at least six people in the Northwest, including two people from Bend. None of the people who fell ill have been hospitalized. The sprout producer, Sprouters Northwest Inc., of Kent, Wash., has issued a recall for all of its products containing the clover sprouts. Sprouters Northwest has sold its clover sprout products to grocery stores and wholesalers in Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Alaska, possibly other states, and British Columbia. Restaurants and delis are also advised to check their stocks to see if they have any Sprouters Northwest products.

Those who served in uniform would receive assistance for unique problems By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

‘Once again ...’ “Once again, sprouts have been identified as the cause of an outbreak of salmonellosis,” Oregon Public Health Division senior epidemiologist William Keene said in a statement. “Consumers who have sprouts at home should check to see if they have any of the recalled products, and if so, should discard them. Retailers should immediately check their stocks and pull any clover products from Sprouters Northwest.” Sprouts have caused at least 13 outbreaks in Oregon since 1995, according to an Oregon Health Authority press release, and have been repeatedly identified as the cause of salmonella outbreaks, E. Coli infections and other diseases. See Salmonella / C5

Deschutes County officials are hoping to create what one official called a more “empathetic” justice system for veterans who have created crimes. “We do know there are many veterans that span across many wars that live in Deschutes County,” said Noah Kirshbaum with the Partnership to End Poverty, a Redmond-based nonprofit. “We know there are currently some going through parole and probation. We don’t think there is a major criminal movement among veterans in Deschutes County ... (but) we want to be ahead of the game. There are veterans coming back from Afghanistan and Iraq, and we want to create a system that is more empathetic to their needs.” Kirshbaum said he’s hoping an initial system to distinguish veterans in the court system would be set up in the next couple of months. Although officials are working to create a speciality court program, in the vein of mental health and family drug courts, the first step is to target veterans in the current court schedule. The program would pair the veteran who committed a crime with a mentor who is also a veteran. See Veterans / C5

REDMOND

Downtown could see new public artwork By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

Redmond may soon have a public arts program that will include six new works of art placed in and around downtown, annually. The program, pending approval by the Redmond City Council, would be another step in the city’s effort to revitalize downtown. Two of the pieces would be located in that effort’s centerpiece: Centennial Park. Dubbed “Art Around the Clock,” the program would have six artists lend their works for the city to display for a year. The city would pay each artist a $750 stipend. Mayor George Endicott said the idea had long been under consideration by the Redmond Commission for Art in Public Places and that he was glad to see it come to pass. See Art / C2

Correction In a story headlined “Bend shelter set to sign 2-year lease with county,” which appeared Monday, Jan. 3, on Page B1, the Bethlehem Inn representative who told Deschutes County in 2008 that the county’s facility did not meet the shelter’s needs was reported incorrectly. It was Jonathan Basham, who was then president of the shelter’s board of directors, who wrote in a 2008 letter to the county that the facility did not fit the shelter’s needs. The Bulletin regrets the error.

Interesting angles can make an otherwise boring picture into an interesting one. However, if all your pictures are nothing but interesting angles, the collection will get boring. They’re like a spice you add to food. One of my favorite ways to show something with an interesting angle is to get low and show the worm’s-eye view. I’m tall, so if every picture I did was at standing height, the viewer would mostly see the tops of people’s heads and a downward point of view. Because of that, I either get low or use my height to my advantage and get very high.

BACKGROUND AND LIGHTING When choosing an interesting angle, first check the background to make sure it won’t distract from the picture. A frequent problem with low angles is the lighting from above. If you can, turn the lights off or do a different picture. Try to narrow the compositional elements of a picture like this by asking yourself, “What are the important elements necessary to make the picture?” My favorite example of this idea is a Galen Rowell photograph of a ram’s horn framing a person with a mountain in the background. (Nomad and skull on the Maryum La of [Western] Tibet, 1987).

By Kate Ramsayer The Bulletin

A kayaker runs Dillon Falls on a winter day a couple of years ago. I hung my camera over the edge of the falls to get it to his eye level as he made the drop. A farmer does the spring planting in southwest Wisconsin. This is an example of visualizing a picture long before making it happen. I thought up this picture about six months before doing it and had to find just the right farm with a windmill over the fields and begged the farmer to call me ahead of time.

TRY EVERYTHING When doing pictures of a subject, I think of shooting it in 360 degrees. Use every lens at every angle you can think of and then try something else. The “something else” pictures will usually be the most interesting. Go high, go low, go vertical, go horizontal, even try a few with an angle to the horizon. Just don’t shoot every picture with a crooked horizon. That gets old fast! The fun part of photography for me is the license to be creative. Push your limits when doing pictures and do tons of them.

The Bureau of Land Management has decided to set limits on the number of people who can boat on certain segments of the John Day River during the peak season between May 20 and July 10, starting this summer. “We’ve spread out the usage,” said Chip Faver, field manager for the Prineville BLM’s Central Oregon resource area. “It’s going to guarantee better visitor experiences.” The permits will be issued on a first-come, first-served basis, and can be bought through an online or phone reservation system for a $6 reservation fee. The new regulations require groups floating or boating down two segments — Segment 2 between Clarno and Cottonwood and Segment 3 between Service Creek and Clarno — to reserve a permit online before they arrive at boat launches during the peak time. Each group of people, in any kind of craft that they row or paddle, needs one permit. For Segment 2, the BLM will issue nine boat trip launch permits for each day between May 20 and July 10, according to the BLM’s decision. In Segment 3, the agency will issue 19 launch permits for groups taking overnight trips. Out of those, up to nine will be allocated for launches from Muleshoe and Service Creek and up to 10 will be for groups launching from Twickenham, Priest Hole and Lower Burnt Ranch.

If the council approves the plan, the city would match a $5,250 grant from the Oregon Arts Commission with an equal amount.

Redmondâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s was one of 25 projects to win a grant from the commission, whose Arts Build Communities grants are funded by the National Endowment for the Arts and state money. Other recipients include the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland and the Heritage Theatre Company in Bend. The plan calls for four pedestals to be installed on Sixth Street and two in Centennial Park. Each of the pedestals will include a comment box and the city will ask local K-12 students to help

Continued from C1 The agency will also issue up to 24 launch permits for day-use trips on Segment 3. However, people who want to float or boat just along the Priest Hole Recreation Site can get one of the unlimited, free permits for that area on-site, according to the decision. The agency studied how many people used the river, how many encounters with other boaters visitors found acceptable and more before making the decision, Faver said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We think that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re right in line with what most peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expectations will be for floating on the John Day River,â&#x20AC;? he said. The BLM only limiting the number of groups that can float during the most popular time, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been concerned about the levels of usage for some time,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Before this becomes a problem, we should have something in place that keeps it from being a problem.â&#x20AC;? The agency found that in 1998, Segment 2 and Segment 3 combined had 13,356 visitor days, while in 2008 that number rose to almost 20,000. People will have to get a permit through an online reservation system that the Prineville BLM is still setting up. The agency will have to assign ranger staff to the river to enforce and support the permit program, Faver said. The first summer of the permit system, rangers will

probably be educating boaters about the system and not fining people, he said, and the agency has not yet determined what the fine for boating without the proper permit will be. Brian Sykes, owner of the Bend company Ouzel Outfitters, which offers guided trips on the John Day, said that the river does get crowded at certain times. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the overall intent is good, because there have been social conflicts in the past with just too many groups on the river

write the promotional materials for each site, including brochures and posters. Brian Wagner, Oregon Arts Commissionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s community arts coordinator, said Redmondâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plan parallels the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s downtown economic development efforts. Awarding the grant was the commissionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opportunity to help support Redmondâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Giving some early investment helps strengthen that work,â&#x20AC;? Wagner said. In these tight economic times, finding government money to back public art can be even more difficult, according to Cate Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Hagan, executive director of the Bend-based nonprofit Arts Central. Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Hagan agreed that public art can help spur economic development efforts. The art, she said, helps show how a city thinks of itself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I applaud Redmond for their foresight,â&#x20AC;? Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Hagan said. The public in Redmond,

at any one time, like Memorial Day weekend,â&#x20AC;? he said. But he has concerns about the way the permits are distributed, he said. The general public might not realize that permits are required, he said, and it could cause scheduling problems for guide companies. A group that wants to book a trip shortly before could be out of luck if all of the permits are already taken, Sykes said. And it would be hard for him to advertise trips on certain days, without knowing whether he could get a permit for that day. Some other rivers with limited access have a certain number of permits set aside for guide services, he said, which would make planning easier. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With the first-come, firstserve, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really difficult for me to plan,â&#x20AC;? he said.

though, will also have a voice in how the art display goes. At the end of the program, the public, including non-residents, will be able to vote on their favorite work of art. Details of the vote have not been finalized yet. Redmond will then purchase the most popular piece to be part of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s permanent collection, according to the staff report. Before the program starts, the city will notify each artist that it will only be able to pay so much for the winning artwork. That amount is pending, but the money for the purchase will come from Redmondâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s budgeted public art money and from the grant. Endicott said the vote will give the city a chance to avoid buyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s remorse. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to buy,â&#x20AC;?

DEQ issues air pollution advisory An air pollution advisory has been issued for Crook and Deschutes counties because of stagnant air conditions, according to a news release. The Oregon Department of En-

vironmental Quality has issued the warning through Friday for 16 counties in Central, Eastern and Southern Oregon. The advisory was issued due to a predicted ridge of high pressure combined with light winds contributing to stagnation across the region. The DEQ asks residents in the affected counties to limit open burning, and if possible, use alternative heating methods to wood stoves and fireplaces.

O Tiernan to step down as GOP chairman By Jonathan J. Cooper The Associated Press

SALEM — The chairman of the Oregon Republican Party announced Monday he is stepping down following an election in which the GOP saw surprisingly strong gains in the state Legislature but failed to pick up a statewide office or congressional seat. Chairman Bob Tiernan threw his support to former gubernatorial candidate Allen Alley after serving a single two-year term in the party’s top elected position. Tiernan modernized the party, hiring new staff, boosting its online outreach efforts and launching a fundraising push that helped retire more than $200,000 in debt. “To put it in Super Bowl terms, we were in last place and now we’re in the playoffs all in two years,” Tiernan said. In November’s elections, Republicans picked up eight seats in the Oregon Legislature, trampling expectations to create a 30-30 tie in the House and giving Democrats a slim 16-14 majority in Senate. The Republican victories erased Democratic supermajorities attained just two years earlier. The GOP’s gubernatorial nominee, former professional basketball player Chris Dudley, narrowly lost the gubernatorial race to Democrat John Kitzhaber despite a wave that swept Republicans to office nationwide. Still, Dudley’s showing was among the strongest for Republicans in the past three decades. Oregon hasn’t elected a Republican governor since Vic Atiyeh in 1978, and the party has struggled in other statewide offices.

Decision made months ago Tiernan said he decided months ago to step down if he could find another suitable chair, and he plans to devote more time to his consulting firm and a new position in the Navy Reserve. Tiernan is a former state lawmaker from Lake Oswego. The unpaid chairman is responsible for hiring party staff, recruiting Republican candidates and raising money for the state party. It’s the top position in the Republican Central Committee, made up of six statewide leaders and representatives from party organizations in all 36 counties. Republican activists will elect their next chair at their Biennial Organizational Meeting Jan. 22. Alley lined up support from many of Oregon’s most powerful Republicans before announcing his intention to run, grabbing endorsements from Tiernan and Rep. Greg Walden, Oregon’s only Republican member of Congress.

Wheeler sworn in as treasurer The Associated Press SALEM — Democrat Ted Wheeler has been sworn in to his first full term as Oregon’s treasurer. Wheeler took the oath of office Monday in a ceremony at the state Capitol, beginning his fouryear term. He was elected in November when he beat Republican Sen. Chris Telfer of Bend. Wheeler has been on the job since March, when Gov. Ted Kulongoski appointed him replace Democrat Ben Westlund, who died in office. Wheeler says he will be more than a competent administrator for the treasurer’s office. He says he’ll be a guardian of Oregon’s financial future, a risk taker and a champion of good ideas no matter where they come from. Incoming Gov. John Kitzhaber and state lawmakers take the oath of office and begin their terms next week.

Oregon justice ends 25-year career By Peter Wong (Salem) Statesman Journal

SALEM — Unlike others, W. Michael “Mick” Gillette of Salem knew what he wanted to do in life while still in college when he took a course in constitutional law. He already was considering a public career. “But I’m a relatively private person, and I don’t meet people very well, so I thought it would

be difficult for me,” he said. “Then I found out there was this great job for which they actually pay people to decide what the law means and what the Constitution means. I thought that would be a great job.” Even though it took him a few more years to get there, Gillette eventually sat on the Oregon Court of Appeals for nine years, and the Oregon Supreme Court, from which he officially retires

Monday, a month short of 25 years. He is the longest-serving justice in recent times and will be succeeded by Jack Landau, whose swearing-in ceremony is Wednesday. “He is the intellectual center of our court,” Chief Justice Paul De Muniz said of Gillette in his state-of-the-courts address a year ago. Lawdragon magazine in 2006 named Gillette, along with three

other Oregon judges, as one of the 500 best in the nation. “One of the smartest legal minds in the state belongs to this distinguished judicial veteran,” it said. Although he is not a household name, Gillette was the author of Supreme Court decisions that made headlines. Among them: overturning voter-approved limits on political contributions and legislative terms,

maintaining a broad interpretation of the state constitutional guarantee of free expression, nullifying Multnomah County’s issuance of marriage licenses to 3,000 same-sex couples, and allowing large but not unlimited punitive-damage awards against Big Tobacco. By his count, Gillette has written almost 1,200 opinions in more than three decades on Oregon’s highest courts.

Messes left behind in foreclosures By Diane Dietz The (Eugene) Register-Guard

EUGENE — Foreclosure in Lane County — as everywhere — has become a mess, and that’s a literal mess and not a euphemism for sloppy or illegal paperwork. A foreclosed Hawkins Heights property owner, for example, cut a hole in his kitchen wall so he could take his jacuzzi bathtub with him as he left. Other homeowners have smashed in the walls with golf clubs or covered the walls with obscenities. Many foreclosed homeowners stop paying garbage bills before they’re forced out, and so they leave dump truck loads of trash and abandoned possessions in their wake. And pets, too, sometimes. “I’ve learned to tie garbage bags around my feet,” said Brian Schartz, a Lane County real estate agent who reports on the condition of houses to the out-of-town banks that have repossessed them. He works for John L. Scott Real Estate in Eugene. His No. 1 rule: Never open a refrigerator. Since 2007, when the national housing crisis caught up with Lane County and foreclosures surged, a cadre of professionals has emerged to clean, fix, market and sell repossessed houses on behalf of banks. “It’s a whole system in real estate culture that people really don’t know exists,” said Justin Thayer, a real estate agent at Keller Williams Realty. “There’s only a few of us who do it. It’s hard to get into but I was able to break in with a little bit of luck and a little bit of hard work.” These professionals — numbering several dozen locally — have had more than 800 foreclosures to deal with over the past year, according to RealtyTrac, a national database of homes to be foreclosed or auctioned. And that’s not counting cases where the owner signs over the house to the bank in lieu of foreclosure.

“A lot of them, you have to wear masks inside. They’re filthy dirty. We’re plugging our nose. We’re covering our faces. You run in and do your work-up and get out.” — Lynn Hunter, broker, Century 21 Westover Realty There was a lull in foreclosures in November and December because some banks were straightening out their paperwork and others chose a holiday moratorium, but the foreclosure rate is unlikely to drop much in the coming year. “We’re now seeing a lot of unemployed who were getting unemployment benefits,” said broker Lynn Hunter of Century 21 Westover Realty, which processes 85 to 90 foreclosures at any given time. “Those people are starting to drop off with the unemployment (benefits) that had been the saving grace that allowed them to keep their homes. With the unemployment benefits going away, we’re going to see a whole slew more come through.” “A lot of them, you have to wear masks inside,” Hunter said. “They’re filthy dirty. We’re plugging our nose. We’re covering our faces. You run in and do your work-up and get out.” About 2,000 eviction lawsuits are filed annually in Lane County, according to an analysis by Carmen Phillips, a Lane County Circuit Court deputy. After repossession, real estate specialists do the initial inspection, then call in “asset preservation contractors” who are paid by the banks to restore the houses. They haul out the trash, kill the vermin — sometimes chase away squatters — scrub, mop and sweep, paint, recarpet, replace appliances and light fixtures and repair any damage, such as the rough-cut kitchen entrance at Hawkins Heights. In an increasing number of foreclosure cases, the mess spills outside of the house and becomes a problem for the neighborhood and for government code enforcers, whom neighbors increasingly call for help. The trash blows, the grass grows chest-high, rodents and even transient people take up

residence. Depending on the strengths of local ordinances, the status of the property and the level of resources, government officials may or may not be able to help. First, a government agent has to figure out who owns the place, and with an abandoned, foreclosed property, that can be difficult. “Have you ever tried to reach

a bank in San Francisco or the East Coast? You’re just never, ever going to get anyone,” said Jane Burgess, Lane County compliance officer. Even when the law allows her to do nothing else, Springfield code enforcement officer Jackie Murdoch tries to learn the date of the foreclosure auction, so that neighbors know there’s hope for a cleanup when a new owner eventually buys the place. “I don’t say this to neighbors because of course I can’t,” Murdoch said, “but if I lived next door to one, I would go get rid of the garbage and be done with it. Nobody would do anything to you. I don’t advise people to do this at all, but a lot of people do that.”

EUGENE — The latest lumber trade dispute between the United States and Canada includes Oregon mill owners, a renegade Canadian lumber baron and North America’s most destructive bark beetle. The conflict entangles two nations, with two-way trade exceeding $430 billion a year. U.S. industry leaders contend British Columbia misclassifies timber as salvage material so Canadian companies can bombard the United States with subsidized lumber. That, they say, undercuts U.S. mills and jobs. Canadian government and industry leaders dispute the charges. The conflict is heating up and means that Washington could haul Ottawa back to a London tribunal as soon as this week. Jeff Redd, associate editor at Eugene-based Random Lengths, which tracks the forest-products industry, said the housing crash has heightened tensions as companies fight for shares of a diminished $6 billion U.S. softwood lumber market. The outcome of the dispute is crucial to the economies of Oregon, Washington and British Columbia, where forests contain vast stands of fir, pine and other softwoods.

Justify $400K recycling grant

here’s a rumor going around that American governments have entered an era of fiscal restraint. Repelled by unchecked spending and swelling debt, vot-

ers handed Republicans the House of Representatives last fall and whittled Democrats’ majority in the Senate. In Oregon, fiscally conservative neophyte Chris Dudley nearly defeated political fixture John Kitzhaber for the governor’s office. Even outgoing Gov. Ted Kulongoski seems to have gotten religion. Having spent years fertilizing the state’s bloated “green” sector with expensive mandates and tax credits — including the notorious Business Energy Tax Credit (BETC) — Kulongoski asked his Reset Cabinet to review state spending. It concluded — surprise! — that Oregon is well on its way to fiscal disaster. Deschutes County has gotten into the act, too. Last spring, county voters ousted Commissioner Dennis Luke, a local political fixture who, despite his reputation for fiscal prudence, had opposed a recommendation to boost the low ($35) monthly premium county employees paid for their health insurance. The county’s budget committee suggested — two years earlier! — bumping up the monthly premium to $50, as allowed by union contracts. Taxpayers showed Luke the door. So, how’s the new era of fiscal sobriety going in Deschutes County? Judging by a nearly $400,000 grant the commission will consider Wednesday, it looks to us like the county fell off the wagon. The grant reflects two and a half years of funding, at about $155,000 per year, for the The Environmental Center, a local nonprofit. In return for the money, The Environmental Center will provide recycling-related education and promotion, including programs for school kids and recycling campaigns aimed at county residents and businesses. Some people support such promotional programs, and some don’t. As for us, we happen to think that math, writing and other core subjects are better uses of classroom time than The Environmental Center’s programs, well-intended though they may be. Whether you like such stuff or not, though, you’re going to pay for it. The grant, if approved, will be funded by landfill tipping fees, according to Timm Schimke, director of the county’s solid waste department. In the end, those fees are paid by customers. A fiscally sober commissioner would ask on Wednesday whether this is money the county must, in fact, spend. Neither the county nor many residents are rolling in clover these days, after all. The staff report submitted for Wednesday’s meeting suggests that the county has no choice (“Des-

chutes county is required to provide an enhanced recycling education and promotion program by State Law”). But the matter isn’t quite so simple, according to the state Department of Environmental Quality. By paying The Environmental Center to provide recycling-related programs, the county has been able to “claim some extra credit,” according to Susan Christensen, a natural resource specialist with the DEQ. Some years ago, she says, the county established a goal to recycle 45 percent of its waste stream by 2009. The rate that year was actually just shy of 39 percent. However, by paying for extra-credit programs, the county has been allowed to fudge its recycling numbers. As a result, the county’s recycling rate in 2009 climbed to 44.8 percent, essentially meeting the goal. What would happen if the county failed to meet its recycling goal? Says Christensen, “there’s no penalty as far as enforcement, no funding that’s taken away.” In this light, the $400,000 grant the commission will consider Wednesday looks a lot more like a choice than a legal requirement. Commissioners ought to ask a couple of questions, then, rather than rubber-stamping the request and congratulating themselves, as the staff report does, for keeping the funding “at this level without increases since 2008.” First, what are the consequences of denying the grant request? If saying “no” wouldn’t trigger any enforcement action or cost the county any money, then there really aren’t any consequences. So much for the claim that the grant is a requirement. Second, in the absence of a state requirement, can commissioners in good conscience force county residents to pay The Environmental Center $400,000 to lecture them and their children about recycling? We don’t think so. But regardless of the outcome, an honest debate will at least show voters which commissioners are determined to reduce unnecessary spending and which are not. Six-figure grants to nonprofits aren’t the stuff of headlines. But governments spend money in countless ways, many of which have nothing to do with PERS — Oregon’s notorious 6 percent pickup — massive stimulus packages or any of the other budget-busters that have achieved dubious celebrity in recent years. Those smaller things add up, and they, too, deserve to be challenged and justified.

My Nickel’s Worth No plastic bags When you see what a mess we have made in the ocean with plastics, banning plastic bags should be a slamdunk decision. We are replacing fish with plastic, and I for one am not interested in a plastic and chips basket. This is something that could be addressed immediately and we are doing our part to use reusable bags. You don’t even have to worry about tearing them. How simple can it be? Get on board or get out of the way. Douglas Vernon Bend

Designate wilderness This letter is to explain why we so strongly support formal wilderness designation for the proposed WychusDeschutes Wilderness. We live on Crooked River Ranch, just across the street from this proposed wilderness area, and continue to hike many of the trails and drive the roads within this area. Nobody who appreciates Central Oregon can deny the dramatic beauty of these canyons and the waters flowing through them. And none of these same people can deny the desirability and value of protecting these areas from development. Many of the folks who live in Central Oregon and support the local economy are retired folks, senior citizens. These seniors need and enjoy this low elevation, accessible area of natural beauty and natural quiet. This is a local place they can take their kids and grandkids to introduce them to the beauty and

quiet of nature. We have heard deep concerns about restrictions to be imposed on existing roads/trails as well as wildfire management in this area if designated as wilderness. These concerns are valid. It is our understanding that the Crooked River Ranch Rural Fire District already has an agreement with the Bureau of Land Management to immediately respond to any fire in this area. Every wilderness area is different and each one requires a different management plan. The most effective time to voice these concerns is when the management plan is being designed. We don’t believe anyone wants to see all the existing roads/trails closed or uncontrolled wild fires burning adjacent to developed areas. Marty and Sara Leigh Wilson Crooked River Ranch

Christmas spirit diminishes I have lived in Bend nearly 27 years. When I first moved here, this town was a delightful place to be at Christmastime. All the stores, restaurants and fast-food places decorated for the holidays and Christmas music happily greeted you everywhere. I have noticed for the past several years that the business people in town have gotten away from that tradition. This year seemed even more depressing than usual, and I made a point of telling the managers/owners who got in the holiday spirit how much I appreciated their efforts. I don’t know if the business people

have gotten too cheap, jaded or politically correct, but basic marketing stresses how important sight and sound is in advertising and drawing customers into your business. Compare the faces and attitudes of customers and employees who have gotten into the Christmas spirit versus “same ol’ same ol’!” It is a no-brainer. Peggy Dickinson Bend

Hire away After reading about Patrick Flaherty and his “unfair” practices in wanting to let go some of Mike Dugan’s people, I don’t understand why the man has to keep Dugan’s employees. It worked well for Dugan. Why? Because they were hand-picked by Dugan, thought alike and had views alike. Not a lot of animosity there. If there was, you can be assured they were let go. Why make the workplace a harder place to work with people who were more loyal to the last guy? I would want people who have the same goals I have rather than fight me every inch of the way. That is a headache in itself. It would leave more time for the position he was elected for. This practice of hiring like-minded people in a changeover is a common practice. Having harmony with Flaherty’s deputy DAs would benefit not only the public, but the court system. I say hire the best ones who will benefit the office, and we will benefit by it. Imagine what would have happened if Obama had to keep Bush’s Cabinet. Pam Crane Bend

Don’t believe president has shifted to the center WASHINGTON — ost people don’t remember Obamacare’s notorious Section 1233, mandating government payments for end-of-life counseling. It aroused so much anxiety as a possible first slippery step on the road to state-mandated late-life rationing that the Senate never included it in the final health care law. Well, it’s back — by administrative fiat. A month ago, Medicare issued a regulation providing for end-of-life counseling during annual “wellness” visits. It was all nicely buried amid the simultaneous release of hundreds of new Medicare rules. Rep. Earl Blumenauer, D-Ore., author of Section 1233, was delighted. “Mr. Blumenauer’s office celebrated ‘a quiet victory,’ but urged supporters not to crow about it,” reports The New York Times. Deathly quiet. In early November, his office sent an e-mail plea to supporters: “We would ask that you not broadcast this accomplishment out to any of your lists ... e-mails can too easily be forwarded.” They had been lucky that “thus far,

it seems that no press or blogs have discovered it. ... The longer this (regulation) goes unnoticed, the better our chances of keeping it.” So much for Democratic transparency — and for their repeated claim that the more people learn what is in the health care law, the more they will like it. Turns out ignorance is the Democrats’ best hope. And regulation is their perfect vehicle — so much quieter than legislation. Consider two other regulatory usurpations in just the last few days: On Dec. 23, the Interior Department issued Secretarial Order 3310 reversing a 2003 decision and giving itself the authority to designate public lands as “Wild Lands.” A clever twofer: (1) a bureaucratic power grab — for seven years up through Dec. 22, wilderness designation had been the exclusive province of Congress, and (2) a leftward lurch — more land to be “protected” from such nefarious uses as domestic oil exploration in a country disastrously dependent on foreign sources. The very same day, the president’s

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER Environmental Protection Agency declared that in 2011 it would begin drawing up anti-carbon regulations on oil refineries and power plants, another power grab effectively enacting what Congress had firmly rejected when presented as cap-and-trade legislation. For an Obama bureaucrat, however, the will of Congress is a mere speed bump. Hence this regulatory trifecta, each one moving smartly left — and nicely clarifying what the spirit of bipartisan compromise that President Obama heralded in his post-lame-duck Dec. 22 news conference was really about: a shift to the center for public consumption and political appearance only. On that day, Obama finally embraced the tax-cut compromise he had initially excoriated, but only to avoid forfeiting

its obvious political benefit — its appeal to independent voters who demand bipartisanship and are the key to Obama’s re-election. But make no mistake: Obama’s initial excoriation in his angry Dec. 7 news conference was the authentic Obama. He hated the deal. Now, as always, Obama’s heart lies left. For those fooled into thinking otherwise by the new Obama of Dec. 22, his administration’s defiantly liberal regulatory moves — on the environment, energy and health care — should disabuse even the most beguiled. These regulatory power plays make political sense. Because Obama needs to appear to reclaim the center, he will stage his more ideological fights in yawn-inducing regulatory hearings rather than in the dramatic spotlight of congressional debate. How better to impose a liberal agenda on a center-right nation than regulatory stealth? It’s Obama’s only way forward during the next two years. He will never get past the half-Republican 112th what he could not get past the overwhelmingly Democratic 111th. He doesn’t have the

votes and he surely doesn’t want the publicity. Hence the quiet resurrection, as it were, of end-of-life counseling. Obama knows he has only so many years to change the country. In his first two, he achieved much: the first stimulus, Obamacare and financial regulation. For the next two, however, the Republican House will prevent any repetition of that. Obama’s agenda will therefore have to be advanced by the more subterranean means of rule-by-regulation. But this must simultaneously be mixed with ostentatious displays of legislative bipartisanship (e.g., the lameduck tax-cut deal) in order to pull off the (apparent) centrist repositioning required for re-election. This, in turn, would grant Obama four more years when, freed from the need for pretense, he can reassert himself ideologically and complete the social-democratic transformation — begun Jan. 20, 2009; derailed Nov. 2, 2010 — that is the mission of his presidency.

‘Forbidden Planet’ star Anne Francis dies at 80 By Bob Thomas The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Actress Anne Francis, who was the love interest in the 1950s science-fiction classic “Forbidden Planet” and later was a sexy private eye in “Honey West” on TV, has died at age 80. Francis died Sunday at a Santa Barbara nursing home, said Bill Guntle, a funeral director at McDermott-Crockett & Associates Mortuary in Santa Barbara. Francis, who had surgery and chemotherapy after being diagnosed with lung cancer in 2007, died of complications of pancreatic cancer, her daughter, Jane Uemura, told the Los Angeles Times. Francis, a stunningly beautiful blonde with a prominent beauty mark, appeared opposite such stars as Spencer Tracy, Paul Newman, Robert Taylor and Glenn Ford in some of the most popular films of the 1950s. But “Forbidden Planet” and “Honey West” made her reputation.

“Forbidden Planet” was hailed in Leonard Maltin’s “2006 Movie Guide” as “one of the most ambitious and intelligent films of its genre.” A science-fiction retelling of Shakespeare’s “The Tempest,” the 1956 film had Leslie Nielsen and other space travelers visiting a planet where expatriate scientist Walter Pidgeon, his daughter (Francis) and their helper, Robby the Robot, built a settlement. Before filming began, the actors held a meeting and agreed “to be as serious about this film as we could be,” Francis said in a 1999 interview. “We could have hammed it up, but we wanted to be as sincere as we could,” she said. In “Honey West,” which aired from 1965 to 1966, Francis’ private detective character — who kept a pet ocelot, a wildcat — was a female James Bond: sexy, stylish and as good with martial arts as she was with a gun. She was nominated for an Emmy for the role, which lasted 30 episodes.

Philip ‘Phil’ Joseph Weigand Jan. 4, 1930 - Dec. 30, 2010 Philip Joseph Weigand, a life-long resident of Central Oregon, passed away on Thursday, December 30, at 2:50 p.m., at his home, surrounded by his beloved family and dogs, Zip and Millie, after an extended illness. Phil was born, January 4, 1930, Phil Weigand in Portland, Oregon, to Norman L. Weigand and Esther Beebee Weigand. At the time of his birth, Norm and Esther were living on 160 acres, which was a gift from Norm's father, near Gray Butte cemetery in the La Monta area (between Prineville and Madras). When Phil was four years old, his father, bought 200 acres in Powell Butte, where they farmed potatoes, wheat, hay and raised cattle. Phil recalls that he actually did start working on the ranch when he was four. He attended Powell Butte Grade School for eight years and then Redmond High School, where he graduated with the Class of 1948. While in High School, he met Josephine Wyckoff, who would eventually become his wife. He attended both Oregon State University and University of Oregon, before he came back to Powell Butte, married his high school sweetheart, November 12, 1950, and settled down to start a family and farm the now 1,000 acres that had been acquired, with his father in Powell Butte. Together, with his brother, Norman Weigand, Jr., farming in Madras, and the acquisition of a cattle ranch in Burns, Weigand Ranches, Inc. was formed. Working on the ranch and later, investing, became his life's work, until he retired from ranch work, when they sold their home and the remaining land in November of 2008. Even though he was retired, he continued to enjoy his business relationships. During his active years of work, he was a long-time board member and president of the Crooked River Round-up As-

sociation. In 1990, Phil and Jo were Grand Marshalls of the Crooked River Round-up. He was one of the founders of the Prineville parimutuel horse races and at one time owned a race horse, named Two'll Do. He was a member and president of the Board of the Prineville Golf and Country Club and a life-long member of St. Thomas Catholic Church in Redmond, which is where he was baptized, confirmed and married. Phil was very generous to causes he believed in and being an animal lover all of his life, it is very fitting that two of his favorite causes were the Weigand Family Dog Park, which was just created last year, and the Humane Society of Redmond. He is survived by his wife, Josephine (Jo) (Wyckoff) Weigand; four daughters, Marcia (and Rand) Rietmann of Sisters, OR; Mary (and Mark) Crose of Redmond, OR; Ann (and Greg) Obendorf of Parma, ID; Janie (and Charles) Crist of Redmond, WA; a brother, Norm of Madras, OR. He is also survived by nine grandsons, Stacey and Corey Clark; Phillip, Brock, and Christian Obendorf; Lucas and Gabriel Rietmann; Charlie and Joseph Crist; and two granddaughters, MaryLynn Crist and Sara Rietmann and a great-granddaughter, Teagan Clark and many nieces, nephews and cousins. Phil's dry sense of humor, his loyalty, love and strong opinions will be missed by his family and many friends. A Rosary will be said at 7:00 p.m., on Thursday, January 6, at St. Thomas Catholic Church in Redmond and a Mass of Christian Burial will be held at St. Thomas Catholic Church on Friday, January 7, at 11:00 a.m. Interment will be at Redmond Memorial Cemetery following Mass. Contributions will be in Phil's memory to the Humane Society of Redmond, P.O. Box 1404, Redmond, OR 97756. Please sign the online guestbook at www.redmondmemorial.com

Of the six people who reported becoming sick, two were from Oregon and four were from Washington. A seventh person, who lives in Multnomah County, is also reported to have fallen ill after the recall was announced, according to reports in The Oregonian newspaper.

she had eaten sprouts from the sandwich chain Jimmy John’s before falling ill. The newspaper also reports a 3-year-old Bend boy became ill on Dec. 17 after eating a Jimmy John’s sandwich. Sprouters Northwest immediately initiated the recall of its clover sprouts after learning about the outbreak, according to the Oregon Health Authority. The Sprouters Northwest recall includes sprouts sold at grocery stores in 4-ounce and 5-ounce plastic containers, and to wholesalers in 1-pound and 2-pound trays. The clover sprout varieties include clover, clover and onion, spicy sprouts and deli sprouts. The company can be contacted at 253-872-0577.

Celebration of Bill Raper’s Life

Oscar-nominated Postlethwaite loses long battle with cancer at 64 By Gregory Katz The Associated Press

LONDON — He could have stayed in teaching. That’s what his parents wanted: It was the safe, secure route for a young man with working-class roots and a face few would describe as handsome. But Pete Postlethwaite wanted more. He wanted to pursue his passion for acting and, at 24, he left teaching to train at the Bristol Old Vic theater. His parents remained skeptical, but when he was introduced to Queen Elizabeth II after a stellar 1980s performance with the Royal Shakespeare Company, even his mother was convinced he would make his mark. It was an incredible ascent for Postlethwaite, a distinguished character actor with a remarkably craggy, timeworn face whose death at age 64 was confirmed Monday by Andrew Richardson, a longtime friend and journalist who documented the actor’s fight against cancer. Richardson said the Oscar-nominated actor died Sunday. Postlethwaite was diagnosed with testicular cancer in 1990.

‘Probably the best actor in the world’ Postlethwaite had little going for him when he started in an industry where good looks — think Robert Redford or George Clooney — are valued. He had few connections, a name that was hard to pronounce, and could distinguish himself only by his talent. It was a subtle talent, hard to define, marked by an ability to completely inhabit a role, to convey a deep sense of burden with a glance or a shrug. There were no pyrotechnics, nothing was overstated. But he had a powerful presence and authenticity on screen and on stage. It was this that prompted director Steven Spielberg — who used Postlethwaite twice — to call him “probably the best actor in the world.” Postlethwaite was part of

Veterans Continued from C1 The person who committed the crime could have an opportunity to go through a treatment program and would receive help tracking down resources available for veterans. Kirshbaum said it’s up to the Deschutes County district attorney to work out many of the details, but he supposes only veterans who committed crimes classified as misdemeanors would be eligible. Deschutes County District Attorney Patrick Flaherty did not return a call for comment. He was sworn in Monday. Eligible veterans would have to meet certain criteria. There would need to be a connection between the crime and the offender’s mental health or dependency issues. Susan Steves, a local attorney whose youngest son is a veteran, said the veterans would still be held accountable but their sentence could be deferred. “I believe veterans should get care,” Steves said. “If they are acting out because of what

a small coterie of British actors who came up together through the theater and found a measure of success in Hollywood. The group included Daniel Day-Lewis and Emma Thompson, longtime friends who starred with him in “In the Name of the Father,” a 1993 classic that earned Postlethwaite a best supporting actor Oscar nomination for his role as Day-Lewis’ father. He branched out into movies and television work in the 1980s, most often taking roles as an occasionally menacing workingclass figure. He had recently been seen in the critically acclaimed film “Inception” and had worked with Spielberg on “The Lost World: Jurassic Park” and “Amistad” in performances that sparked Spielberg’s extravagant compliment. He drew high praise for his starring role in “Brassed Off” in 1996. He also played a vicious crime boss in Ben Affleck’s “The Town,” released last year, and will be seen this year in “Killing Bono.” He is survived by his wife, Jacqui, his son, Will, and daughter, Lily.

they endured for us, we should hold them accountable but treat them with honor and respect.” Currently, veterans are not distinguished in the justice system. How many veterans would utilize the new program is unknown, according to Kirshbaum. “I think we should start with smaller crimes and (veterans) that are eligible for mental health or drug treatment and open it up to something bigger down the road,” he said. “That’s where we’re at now.” Chuck Hemingway, the executive director of Central Oregon Veteran Outreach, believes a specialized court for veterans has been a long time coming. “If we can work with those veterans to help them get help and not leave them burdened with a criminal conviction — if we can put them in a diversiontype program, where they can get the help they need, that’s the purpose of veterans’ court,” Hemingway said.

Seahawks become inglorious underdog

Eight players join Oregon State squad CORVALLIS — Oregon State University head football coach Mike Riley announced Monday that greyshirts Trevor Romaine, Will Storey, Fred Thompson, Terron Ward and D.J. Welch have officially joined the program for the first day of winter term classes. In addition, true freshmen Darryl Jackson, Troy Whalen and David Vieru have also been added to the roster. Whalen and Vieru are walkons. Romaine, Storey, Thompson, Ward and Welch all signed with OSU last February during the high school National Letter of Intent period. Romaine was a two-time All-CIF Inland Division kicker for Centennial High School in Corona, Calif. Storey was a first-team linebacker in 2009 for Lake Oswego High School and was the MVP of the 6A title game as a junior. Thompson was a first-team all-city defensive tackle at Oakland Tech High School in Oakland, Calif. Ward, a running back, was the Bay Area News Group East Bay Player of the Year at De La Salle High School in Concord, Calif. Welch was the co-Desert Valley League MVP as a linebacker for Palm Desert High School in Palm Desert, Calif. Jackson joins the team after originally signing a LOI with Southern Methodist University in Texas. He did not enroll at SMU and thus has five years to complete four seasons of eligibility. The 6-7 305-pound offensive tackle attended El Camino College last term, but was not a fulltime student. Whalen is a 6-2, 230pound long snapper from De La Salle High School and was a prep teammate of Ward’s. Vieru is a 6-3, 271-pound offensive guard from Centennial High School in Gresham who earned honorable mention all-state on offense and was second team all-state as a defensive lineman in 2009. He also was the 2010 state heavyweight wrestling champion. — From wire reports

INSIDE NBA Nuggets take win streak to four Carmelo Anthony scores 33 points to lead Denver, see Page D3

By Judy Battista New York Times News Service

Bill Parcells used to dismiss the excuses and analysis and sum up the entire NFL with a simple, biting adage: You are what your record says you are. In that case, the Seattle Seahawks, who beat the St. Louis Rams on Sunday night in the regular season’s final game, are the worst playoff team in NFL history. They are the first to win a division with a losing record and the Next up third to make the playoffs • NFC Wildwith a sub-.500 record (Decard, New troit and Cleveland, both Orleans 4-5, were wild-card teams Saints at in the strike-shortened 1982 Seattle season). At 7-9, the Seahawks have Seahawks won half as many games as • When: the New England Patriots Saturday, and four fewer than the New 1:30 p.m. Orleans Saints — their wildcard game opponent — and • TV: NBC their record would earn them no better than third place in every other division. Meanwhile, the 10-win Tampa Bay Buccaneers and New York Giants stay home, victims of bad geography as much as uneven play. The only way for the Seahawks to finish the 2010 season with a winning record? They have to win the Super Bowl. See Seahawks / D5

Bulletin sports reporter Amanda Miles tubes recently at the Autobahn Tubing Area at Hoodoo Mountain Resort.

WELCOME TO WINTER WONDERLAND

Tubing, sledding Thrill-seekers can hit the slopes without any expertise or fancy gear Reporter’s prelude: So here’s the deal: I move to Bend from the Portland area right as autumn begins to become the new Community Sports coordinator at The Bulletin. Just as I start to get my bearings here in Central Oregon, the snow hits. Just what, exactly, is a summer-sport girl supposed to do? As it turns out, I can play in the snow. Join me as I explore Central Oregon’s winter playgrounds and try a number of the region’s popular sports and recreational activities — many for the first time. This week, I try tubing. — Amanda Miles

Youngster dubbed India’s version of NBA’s Yao Ming By C. Rajshekhar Rao The Associated Press

NEW DELHI — He is just 15 years old and already 7-foot-2. His ambition, however, is even higher. Satnam Singh Bhamar hopes he can one day do for basketball in India what Houston Rockets star Yao Ming has done in China. “It feels good to be compared to Yao Ming,” Bhamar says. Yao’s move from Shanghai to the NBA made him an icon in China. Bhamar, a shy youngster from rural India, realizes he has a long way to go before he can be talked about in such terms. He was among eight players — four boys and four girls — chosen to attend an IMG basketball academy in Florida. The Basketball Federation of India recently joined the sports management company IMG-Reliance as part of a 30-year plan to promote the sport. Bhamar’s height alone has ensured that he is someone to watch at the one-year training program. See Youngster / D5

One of the best things about tubing and sledding is their simplicity. You need the right equipment and you need a hill, of course, but at that point, you’re ready to go — no lessons or fancy gear required. Plus, the activity can be a lot of fun for thrill-seekers. “You definitely kind of get an adrenaline rush,” says Andy Goggins, director of marketing and communications at Mt. Bachelor ski area. “You’re on the snow and you definitely don’t need any sort of technical expertise to do it.” The three Central Oregon ski resorts — Mt. Bachelor, Hoodoo Mountain Resort and Willamette Pass Resort — all offer tubing areas where all you have to do to play is pay. The tubes are provided. Mt. Bachelor’s Snowblast Tubing Area is open Fridays through Sundays and on holidays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Snowblast includes six different “lanes” and two tow ropes. For $11 or $14, depending on your age, you can enjoy one of three two-hour sessions. See Tubing / D6

Inner tubes similar to the ones at Hoodoo Mountain Resort can be purchased online for about $100.

Gear guide: Tubes and sleds A number of sliding devices are on the market, including saucers, disks, tubes, toboggans and sleds. You can try big-box stores like Dick’s Sporting Goods and REI, or hit the Internet for sites like Amazon.com or Tube Pro Inc., which sells retail inner tubes like the commercial versions you find at the ski resorts. The cost for these products can vary widely. For instance, you can find some saucers for about $20 to $30, or you can go for a wooden sled with a stainless steel pivot for $460. You can even purchase a wooden kicksled — which looks like a chair with runners on the bottom and is designed to be used on flatter surfaces — for about $300 to $350, and take Grandma or Junior for a ride through the neighborhood. Some of the sliding gear I scouted out online included some sort of braking and/or steering mechanisms, and many of the products were priced below $150 (a number of them by a considerable amount). For example, the tubes from Tube Pro Inc. range in price from $89 to $129 and come with either hard or soft bottoms. A lot of the less expensive equipment tended to be made of plastic or foam, but you can still find sleds constructed of wood with metal components.

S B Football • Vikings hire Leslie Frazier as coach: The Minnesota Vikings have reached an agreement with Leslie Frazier to be their next coach. The Vikings announced Monday they’re removing the interim tag from Frazier’s title. Frazier took over on Nov. 22 when Brad Childress was fired, and the Vikings went 3-3 under the 51-year-old after a 3-7 start. • Eric Mangini fired by Browns after 5-11 season: Eric Mangini won’t be granted a third season as Cleveland’s coach. Given a second chance last year by Browns president Mike Holmgren to improve, Mangini was fired Monday following a second straight 5-11 season and one day after a humiliating home loss to the rival Pittsburgh Steelers. • Seattle, WR Mike Williams agree to 3-year deal: Onetime bust Mike Williams has found a home in Seattle. And the Seahawks’ leading receiver is sticking around for a few more seasons after signing a three-year extension. The deal was announced on Monday and was finalized over the weekend before Seattle beat St. Louis to win the NFC West and become the first sub-.500 division champion in league history. It’s been a banner season for Williams, who spent the previous two years out of the NFL. The former first-round pick finished the regular season with a careerbest 65 catches for 751 yards and two touchdowns.

Baseball • Webb, Rhodes formally added to Rangers staff: The Rangers will have a former Cy Young Award winner wearing No. 33 after all next season — Brandon Webb instead of Cliff Lee. Three weeks after losing Lee in free agency, the AL champions on Monday finalized a $3 million, oneyear deal with the 2006 NL Cy Young winner, who hasn’t pitched since the 2009 season opener after shoulder surgery. Texas also completed a $3.9 million, one-year contract with 41-year-old reliever Arthur Rhodes. • Mariners announce 2-year deal with C Miguel Olivo: Miguel Olivo and the Seattle Mariners have completed their $7 million, two-year contract, bringing the catcher back to the Pacific Northwest. Seattle announced the deal Monday, which includes a club option for 2013. The deal was first agreed upon during the winter meetings in Florida last month, but was subject to Olivo passing his physical. Seattle also has agreed to a $2.75 million, twoyear contract with shortstop Brendan Ryan, acquired last month in a trade with St. Louis. In a deal that avoids arbitration, Ryan gets $1 million this season and $1.75 million in 2012. This will be Olivo’s second stint with the Mariners after spending parts of the 2004 and 2005 seasons in Seattle. Last year, he hit a career-best .269 with 14 homers and 58 RBIs for Colorado.

Auto racing • Carlos Sainz extends lead in Dakar Rally: Defending champion Carlos Sainz stretched his lead in the Dakar Rally, winning the second stage Monday despite being barely able to see for about seven miles because of windshield wiper problems. He’s followed by BMW’s Stephane Peterhansel and Volkswagen teammate Nasser Al-Attiyah. Sainz covered the second car leg in northern Argentina in 3 hours, 11 minutes, 38 seconds. Al-Attiyah was 1:03 behind, with Peterhansel 1:34 back. In the overall standings, Sainz is 3:05 ahead of Peterhansel.

Winter sports • Richardson wins 500, 1,000 for women: Heather Richardson skated through the pain of a back injury to post the fastest times in the world this season with wins Monday in the 500 and 1,000 meters at the 2011 U.S. Speedskating Championships at the Utah Olympic Oval. Richardson skated to a personal best in the 500, winning in 37.58 seconds over Rebekah Bradford (38.60) and Lauren Cholewinski (38.90). Richardson also won the 1,000 in 1 minute, 14.70 seconds. Shani Davis won the men’s 1,000 after covering 2 1⁄2 laps on the Utah Olympic Oval in 1 minute, 7.58 seconds. — From wire reports

Orioles’ pitcher surrenders to police By Dionisio Soldevila The Associated Press

SANTO DOMINGO, Dominican Republic — Baltimore Orioles reliever Alfredo Simon surrendered to police Monday to face an involuntary manslaughter charge in a fatal shooting New Year’s Eve. His lawyer said he was firing celebratory shots in the air. The Dominican pitcher is suspected of killing 25-year-old Michel Castillo Almonte and wounding his 17-year-old brother in the northeast coastal town of Luperon. The dead man is Simon’s cousin, according to the player’s lawyer. Police initially said a murder charge would be filed against Simon, but Public Prosecutor Victor Mueses told The Associated Press on Monday that witness accounts and evidence support an involuntary manslaughter charge instead. “The version that we have is that there was a dispute between two women and he tried to dissolve it, fired a shot that ended up wounding a young person in the arm and that same bul-

let lodged in the chest of the deceased,” Mueses said by phone. Simon is to appear at the Puerto Plata courthouse for arraignment later in the day. He could face up to two years in prison if found guilty of Alfredo Simon involuntary manslaughter. Mueses, the public prosecutor in Puerto Plata, said he will request three months of preventive detention for Simon while the case is pending. Simon’s lawyer, Carlos Olivares, told the AP his client fired random shots with a group of local boys. But he believes Simon could not have been the shooter because the player’s cousin was shot in the chest. “We are giving the weapon so that the national police can do the pertinent ballistics tests,” Olivares said. Ballistics test should be completed in the next

48 hours, according to Dominican Police Chief Jose Polanco. Some Dominicans shoot guns in the air on New Year’s Eve especially in the hours leading to midnight, although authorities have repeatedly warned against the practice. Bystanders are killed or wounded every New Year’s Eve. Simon was accompanied to the police station by Julio Lugo, the free agent second baseman for the Orioles. “He is scared because he recognizes that he fired shots, although they went into the air,” said Lugo, who advised Simon to surrender after he fled the scene. The injured teenager was shot in the right arm and remains hospitalized in the Dominican city of Santiago. Simon joined Baltimore in 2008 but was quickly sidelined with an injury. The 29-year-old pitcher went 4-2 with a 4.93 ERA last season. He had 17 saves before Orioles manager Buck Showalter decided to make Koji Uehara the closer.

NHL ROUNDUP

Blackhawks beat Kings, end three-game skid The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — The Chicago Blackhawks came away with their first win of the new year despite mistakes that kept the Los Angeles Kings in the game until the final minutes. Jonathan Toews scored the winning goal off his own skate at 14:33 of the third period, giving Chicago a 4-3 victory on Monday night to end a three-game skid. “Necessary win, huge win for us,” Chicago coach Joel Quenneville said. The defending Stanley Cup champions swept the Kings in four games for the first time since 1981-82, when they went 3-0-0 against them. Patrick Sharp continued his success against Los Angeles, scoring two goals and assisting on another. His three points gave him eight this season against the Kings. “Every time we play those guys, it’s a tough game and it goes back and forth, like it was tonight,” he said. “I know we’ve gotten the better of them a few times, but they’re a team that’s certainly not going to go away. They’re going to be competitive all year long.” Sharp’s two goals gave Chicago the lead both times until Ryan Smyth tied it 3-3 for the Kings on a drive that broke his stick at 12:42 of the third. “We stuck with it. It wasn’t the prettiest game on our part after 40 minutes,” Sharp said. “But our power play kept us in it along with our goaltender, and we kind of regrouped and raised our battle level. It was nice to see us go out there and score a couple of 5-on-5 goals.” Toews answered 1:51 after Smyth’s goal, when he scored in traffic after Jonathan Quick had already made one save, drawing

cheers from a contingent of red-clad Hawks fans sitting behind their bench. “That’s bad luck,” Los Angeles coach Terry Murray said. “It almost went off Quick’s head when it came off the crossbar. I guess when you’re the Stanley Cup champions, you get lucky breaks like that. We shouldn’t have put ourselves in that position.” Corey Crawford made 26 saves as Chicago avoided a four-game skid for the first time this season. “We knew it was going to be a tight game, so we just stuck it out. But we want to be better defensively than we were,” Toews said. “There were some lapses, especially on the penalty kill, that weren’t good for us. But we just found a way and that’s the main thing.” Toews returned after missing two games because of a right shoulder injury. “He brings a lot to the table. One of the biggest things is his grittiness and his ability to play in front of the net low and know where everyone is going to be,” teammate Duncan Keith said. “You can never have enough of that, and sure enough, he gets the game-winner being right in the paint and making a great play.” The Kings dropped their fourth in a row, giving them their second such losing streak this season. “We’re definitely close (to the Blackhawks), but close isn’t good enough. We have to find a way to win,” Anze Kopitar said. “We can pull together a string of shifts where we can dominate any team in the league. But for some reason, we let up. Sometimes we try to do too much and don’t do the right things, and that burns us every time.” Sharp’s second goal made it 3-2 early in

the third off Alex Martinez’s turnover. Smyth tied it on a power play after Toews was sent off for high sticking. Sharp’s first goal, a power-play score, gave the Hawks a 2-1 lead at 7:11 of the second. Smyth tied it on a breakaway at 18:17 of the period. Chicago tied the game at 1-all on Marian Hossa’s power-play goal at 18:42 of the first. Hossa drove to the net with none of the Kings stopping him for his ninth goal of the season and first since Nov. 14 against Anaheim. The Kings led 1-0 when Michal Handzus redirected Jack Johnson’s long wrist shot from center ice at 4:28 of the first.

Nuggets take fourth straight win

SUMMARIES

DENVER — Carmelo Anthony made a point of driving the lane and taking the ball to the hoop. He was rewarded with some easy buckets and plenty of trips to the free throw line. In his second game back since being away from the team for eight days — five games — to be with his family after the death of his sister, Anthony finished with 33 points and the Nuggets pulled ahead in the late going to beat the Houston Rockets 113-106 Monday night for their fourth consecutive win. “I was just trying to be aggressive and get to the rack,” said Anthony, who had 11 rebounds and made 13 of 14 free throws to help the Nuggets fend off the Rockets with his eighth game of 30 or more points this season. “Sometimes they called it, sometimes they didn’t. You know, when you shoot 14 free throws it’s hard for them to call every time you get fouled. They’re going to miss some calls. But that is one of the strengths of my game, getting to the free throw line, and tonight I was effective at that.” Houston’s Shane Battier said the free throws shot by the Nuggets — they made 34 of 40 attempts to 15 of 21 for the Rockets — was the difference in a tight game. “We didn’t do a very good job of keeping him off the line,” Battier said. “It’s tough to play on the road and overcome the 40 free throws they had as team. We just have to do a better job on them without fouling them.” Nene added 16 points and 11 rebounds and Arron Afflalo scored 15 points for Denver. Houston was led by Luis Scola with 24 points.

Denver beat Houston 113-106. had 21 points and Brad Miller had 11 rebounds and 10 points. The Rockets took 30 shots from 3-point range, one fewer than their season high, and made 13, topped by four for Lowry. The Nuggets put up only eight shots from beyond the arc and made a season-low three, relying on medium and short-range range jumpers and lay-ups to outscore the Rockets 46-28 in the paint and also beat them at the line. “We’re an attack team, attacking all the time; guys putting on the deck and trying to get to the basket,” said Denver’s Chauncey Billups, who had six of his 13 points on free throws. “That’s kind of how we win, getting to the free throw line more than anyone else.” In other games on Monday:

No. 10 Kentucky holds off hot-shooting Penn The Associated Press LEXINGTON, Ky. — Penn kept making shots. Kentucky coach John Calipari kept screaming, looking for somebody — anybody — willing to play defense. Calipari found volunteers in the usual places, and soon enough everything was right again for the 10th-ranked Wildcats. Buoyed by some stellar defending by DeAndre Liggins and some hot shooting by just about everybody, Kentucky roared past Penn 86-62 on Monday for its seventh straight win. “I think everybody altogether got it going,” said center Josh Harrellson, who finished with 12 points and 11 rebounds. “We just got on a run and never looked back.” Good thing, because the Wildcats (12-2) might not have liked what they saw during the first 15 minutes. Penn (5-6) opened a 12-point lead behind torrid 3-point shooting from Tyler Bernardini and some uncharacteristically relaxed defense by Kentucky. The Wildcats blew assignments, totally

COLLEGE FOOTBALL: ORANGE BOWL

NFL

Stanford rolls to win over Virginia Tech

Commissioner e-mails fans about labor

By Steven Wine The Associated Press

MIAMI — John Elway flashed his familiar grin and Jim Harbaugh gave a jubilant shout from the sideline as Andrew Luck sprinted up the field to join a celebration in the end zone. Nearly a quarter remained in the Orange Bowl, but the Stanford Cardinal were on the way to their first bowl victory in 14 years. And it was a blowout. Luck, the Heisman Trophy runner-up, threw for 287 yards and four touchdowns Monday night to lead fifthranked Stanford past No. 12 Virginia Tech 40-12. “I’m extremely excited,” Luck said. “Couldn’t be happier for the Stanford community.” It was a performance reminiscent of Elway, the former Stanford quarterback who is expected to become the Denver Broncos’ chief football executive this week. He served as an honorary captain, and ex-Stanford QB Jim Plunkett was also on hand to lend support. The Cardinal (12-1) likely will end the season ranked in the top 5 for the first time since the unbeaten 1940 team finished No. 2. Their success comes only four years after they went 1-11 and hired Harbaugh as coach to lead a turnaround. Virginia Tech (11-3), playing in a bowl game for the 18th consecutive year, fell to 1-27 against top-5 teams. Stanford threw a completion for a bizarre safety and blew two extra points, but overcame those mistakes with six plays gaining more than 30 yards. Two came in succession on a two-play, 97-yard “drive,” and the Cardinal outscored Tech 27-0 in the second half. “They’re really good, and we helped them be good,” Hokies coach Frank Beamer said. “There were a couple of long plays against our defense, and then the game got away from us. The thing kind of snowballed.” Tight end Coby Fleener caught scoring passes of 41, 58 and 38 yards from Luck, all in the final 21 minutes. Zach Ertz had a 25-yard TD reception, Jeremy Stewart scored on a 60-yard run and Stepfan Taylor added a 56yard run. Fullback-linebacker Owen Marecic scored on a 1-yard run and had a sack. Luck went 18 for 23 and was chosen the Orange Bowl most valuable player. Fleener had six catches for 173 yards for the Cardinal, who outgained Tech 534-288. The game might have been the last at Stanford for Harbaugh and Luck. Harbaugh is expected to be courted by NFL teams and perhaps alma mater Michigan after leading the Cardinal to a school-record win total. Luck, a sophomore, is projected as the likely first pick in the NFL draft if he turns pro this year. “I don’t want to make an impulsive decision,” Luck said. “I’ll enjoy this as long as I can. I know the deadline is coming up, I’ll sit down with my parents, weigh the

After Delano Howell made an interception at the 3 to snuff a Tech threat, Taylor busted loose and reached Hokies territory. On the next play, Luck threw deep to Fleener for a 26-12 lead. Luck also threw for a safety that cut Stanford’s lead to 7-2. His pass was batted backward by Antoine Hopkins to 303-pound offensive tackle Derek Hall, who caught the ball rather than knocking it down and was tackled

in the end zone. The Hokies’ offense had trouble scoring, though. Tyrod Taylor threw for 222 yards but was held to 22 yards rushing, and Tech twice came away empty after driving inside the Stanford 35. Taylor’s scrambling skills helped the Hokies score their only touchdown. On third-and-goal he rolled left, retreated, spun 180 degrees against the sideline near the Stanford bench and threw to David Wilson for an 11-yard score.

Ohio State looking to redeem Big Ten’s woes By Paul Newberry The Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS — Jim Tressel and Bobby Petrino dutifully posed in front of the Sugar Bowl trophy Monday, forcing smiles and mumbling a few pleasantries to each other while the cameras clicked away. Surely there was no mention of what happened on New Year’s Day. That would have wiped the grin right off Tressel’s face. The Big Ten is still stinging from an embarrassing performance on the first day of 2011, when its teams put up an oh-fer in five bowl games. Making matter worse, three of those defeats came against the Southeastern Conference, the other half of that perennial debate over where they play the best college football: the North or the South? No. 6 Ohio State can soothe some of the sting by winning Tuesday night’s Sugar Bowl against eighth-ranked Arkansas in yet another Big Ten-SEC matchup. Tressel would prefer not to put the entire conference on his team’s back, especially since the Buckeyes (11-1) have never won a bowl game against an SEC team in nine previous tries. “We always say if you ever want to become the best, you play against the best,” said Tressel, who has an 0-3 bowl record against the SEC in his decade as the Buckeyes’ coach — including backto-back losses in the national championship game. There’s little doubt the Big Ten is feeling a bit of inferiority complex against the SEC, which already has claimed an unprecedented four straight national

Over the weekend, Pryor talked with the media for the first time since his punishment was announced, reiterating his vow to return to the Buckeyes for his senior season — even if he’ll miss nearly half the games — but stirring up another tempest when asked about critical comments by ESPN analyst and former Ohio State QB Kirk Herbstreit. “I don’t worry about what Kirk Herbstreit says, to tell you the truth,” Pryor said. “Did he beat Michigan?” The Buckeyes were 0-3-1 against their biggest rival during Herbstreit’s career. They’ve won all three meetings with Pryor as their quarterback. “As we talk with any of our kids in terms of giving their opinions on things, I’ve always felt that sometimes those are best left unsaid,” Tressel said, before acknowledging that “is difficult sometimes for kids because they spend so much of their time hearing people’s opinions of them.” The 58-year-old Tressel also denied speculation he might retire after the Sugar Bowl, blaming a website for spreading false information. “Recruits are calling asking if it’s true or not,” he said. “The rumor is a waste of time, but this world is an ever-evolving waste of time. I don’t know when people have time to spend so much time reading all this stuff.” Then, he jokingly added, “It’s better than the alternative: the day they fire you.”

Cam Newton / The Associated Press

Auburn quarterback Cam Newton takes a self portrait with fans during the team send-off from the Auburn Athletic Complex on Monday in Auburn, Ala. Auburn plays Oregon in the college football BCS Championship Game on Monday.

A day after the NFL regular season ended, Commissioner Roger Goodell sent an e-mail to about 5 million fans, telling them that “if both sides give a little,” the league and its players’ union “can and will reach an agreement” on a new labor deal. Citing the U.S. economy and saying, “a 10 percent unemployment rate hurts us all,” Goodell wrote Monday: “Yes, NFL players deserve to be paid well. Unfortunately, economic realities are forcing everyone to make tough choices and the NFL is no different.” He outlined two key elements in negotiations among owners and players to replace the collective bargaining agreement, which expires March 4: • Expanding from a 16- to 18-game regular season, which Goodell called “a significant change” that would “resolve fan complaints about preseason” by dropping two exhibition games; • Instituting “a new system that properly compensates proven veterans and retired players by shifting some of the outrageous sums paid to many unproven rookies.” In 2009, according to the e-mail, NFL teams agreed to contracts worth $1.2 billion — including $585 million in guaranteed pay — for 256 drafted rookies. “Don’t get me wrong: top draft choices will continue to be highly paid,” Goodell wrote. “All we’re asking for is a return to common sense in paying our rookies. Other leagues have done this and we can, too.” Goodell also referred to the league’s efforts to improve player safety by enforcing rules on dangerous hits, and “addressing the potential wear-and-tear on players in the way they train in-season and off-season.” The union declined to respond to the letter, which was sent to a database of fan e-mail addresses the league has collected from various sources, including NFL.com. Some individual players did react to what Goodell said, including Cleveland Browns linebacker Scott Fujita, a member of the union’s executive committee. “We’re not close (to a deal) right now,” Fujita said. Denver Broncos quarterback Kyle Orton found it noteworthy that Goodell wrote about owners and players needing to “give a little,” and also pitched an 18-game regular season and changes to rookie salaries. “It sounds like more than ‘a little’ to me. What are the owners giving that’s equal to that?” Orton said. “So we’ll see how that plays out, but it’s not going to be a oneway situation where the players give and the owners don’t.” Orton also wondered whether players will support the longer regular season, something the owners have made a centerpiece of the negotiations. “Many fans have been asking me where we stand on signing a new collective bargaining agreement with the player’s union. Let me update you and be clear at the outset: I know we can and will reach an agreement,” Goodell wrote. He continued: “Economic conditions ... have changed dramatically inside and outside the NFL since 2006 when we negotiated the last CBA. ... These are not easy negotiations, but the outcome can be positive. If both sides give a little, everyone, including fans, will get a lot and the game will improve through innovation.” The current CBA went into effect for the 2006 season, but the owners exercised an opt-out clause in 2008 that ends the deal after this season, saying they can’t afford the current system. The players say the league is healthy, thanks to billions of dollars in TV deals, solid attendance, profitable marketing partnerships and overseas interest. “We have a formula that works. And we’re just asking the owners: Why opt out? Why are we going though labor issues right now, when this equation is working?” Washington Redskins defensive lineman Vonnie Holliday said Monday. Holliday, Washington’s player representative, added: “It’s amazing how talks have gone from negotiating a collective bargaining agreement to negotiating an 18-game season. And that was a strategic move by ownership, by the NFL. And it’s somewhat disappointing. And they’re supposed to be operating in a way that is (for) the good of the players, and I don’t know if that’s happening right now.”

THE BULLETIN • Tuesday, January 4, 2011 D5

Seahawks Continued from D1 “I hear that’s never happened before, and I think that’s kind of cool,” coach Pete Carroll said of a losing team winning a division. “Wasn’t it TCU that won for all the little guys? I guess for all those teams that have a losing record and don’t think they can be champions, it can get done.” Even Seahawks fans, whose staggering lung power makes Qwest Field one of the NFL’s most imposing stadiums, were ambivalent about their team advancing. In an online survey taken by The Seattle Times last week, most fans said they preferred that the Seahawks lose Sunday night, so their draft position would be preserved. The fans were right to be concerned that the Rams have the brightest future in the division because they have a franchise quarterback in Sam Bradford who needs only a few receivers to get the offense moving. And the Rams have key young players on defense and a superb head coach. They will have the 14th draft pick in April. With the win, Seattle dropped to at least 21st. But while this result will be used as Example A when the NFL considers whether to reseed playoff teams by record — it has been considered before and rejected, and Giants owner John Mara doesn’t think that will change this time around — none of that matters now. Seattle deserves credit for one major accomplishment: It played its best game of the season with the most on the line, which is more than can be said for a few teams in the playoff field. Backup quarterback Charlie Whitehurst, making his second career start, threw for 192 yards, and the running game, ranked last in the league, had 141 yards. The defense, ranked 30th entering the game, held the Rams to 184 yards. Steven Jackson never got going, and the ultra-conservative Rams passing game got no help from several critical drops. The Seahawks redeemed the manic style Carroll brought with him from USC. And now starting quarterback Matt Hasselbeck might have time to get healthy for the Saints. There is charm in the Seahawks’ story, just like an NCAA playin victor facing Duke in the first round. They probably don’t have much chance to beat the Saints, although New Orleans has never won a playoff game on the road. The Seahawks lost to the Saints, 34-19, in Week 11 after allowing 494 yards of offense (the Saints weren’t much better, allowing 424 yards, including 366 by Hasselbeck). But weirder things have happened this season — a team that lost nine games by at least 15 points winning a division is one of them — and there will be plenty of time later this month to watch the behemoths slug it out. For the first time since 2000, both Super Bowl teams from last season made it back to the playoffs. But for a few days, the NFL should set aside the hand-wringing. This isn’t what Pete Rozelle had in mind when he espoused parity, but the NFL can use an occasional shake-up to its carefully constructed world order. And a team that barely registers a blip most seasons is a good way to do it. “Was that fun or what?” Carroll asked as he began his post-game interview. “Geez. The thing that I’m so proud of this team is they hung together through a lot of messy games.” Brady’s spectacular season Time to end the most valuable player conversation. New England’s Tom Brady finished the season with 36 touchdown passes and four interceptions, an astonishing 9.0 touchdown-to-interception ratio. That broke the previous record of 6.25, set by Brady in 2007, when he threw for 50 touchdowns and

Youngster Continued from D1 “I have to work very hard on my speed, power and agility to do well at the top level,” Bhamar says while watching the national championships in New Delhi. “The training methods are very different (in Florida) and I was initially worried whether I would be able to cope with the strenuous sessions.” Bhamar started playing basketball six years ago. He says there is a huge talent gap between players in India and those in the U.S. “I think players here need to forget their style of play,” he said. “I was unable to match top (Indian) seniors before I left for my training, but I can already feel the difference when I play with them now in practice.” Bhamar’s father is Balbir Singh Bhamar, a 7-footer who was unable to pursue a basketball career because of few opportunities. “I am really lucky to have got the chance and I want to make my family, coaches and country proud by doing well,” the younger

had eight interceptions. No other quarterback has ever topped a 6.0 ratio. Sunday’s game was typical, except that Brady did not finish the meaningless game. But he did complete 10 of 16 passes for two touchdowns, no interceptions and no sacks. With Wes Welker sitting out, Brady’s first touchdown was a 13-yarder to rookie tight end Rob Gronkowski and the second was to veteran tight end Alge Crumpler. That has been what the Patriots have looked like this season, even before Bill Belichick traded Randy Moss and remade the offense on the fly. There were lots of short passes that emphasize Brady’s accuracy, and that minimized mistakes. Brady also led a remarkable statistical trend. This season, 22 quarterbacks — including Bradford — passed for at least 3,000 yards, the most in a season in NFL history. The previous high was 19, in 2001 and 2009, but the upward swing indicates what is obvious to the naked eye: More teams rely on the pass over the run, and the increasing popularity of the spread offense is going to make many passing records obsolete. Favre bows out Brett Favre declined to answer a question Sunday about the $50,000 fine the NFL levied against him last week for failing to be candid during its investigation into whether he sent graphic photos and suggestive messages to a woman when both worked for the New York Jets in 2008. And so ends one of the most excruciating career conclusions in sports history. The scandal was an embarrassment, and his play this season was only a bit better. He spent long minutes in news conferences talking about himself and not his team. The long-awaited union with Moss was a colossal failure. The final image of him on the field is haunting — Favre, lying face down on the frozen ground in Minnesota, briefly knocked out by a hit to the head for what he said was the first time in his career. In time, though, most of that will fade, replaced by the more positive memories of a giddy Favre on the field — always, on the field, in a remarkable show of resilience — playing with a boyish glee that is often absent in a deadly serious business. It is impossible to imagine him not going into the Hall of Fame the minute he is eligible. For as many times as Favre has toyed with retirement, only to change his mind, he seemed as if he meant it Sunday. He sounded tired and looked exhausted. “I know it’s time, and that’s OK. It is,” Favre said after the Vikings’ 2013 loss to the Detroit Lions. “Again, I hold no regrets, and I can’t think of too many players offhand that can walk away and say that.” Lions become team to watch One team to pay attention to when next season begins: the Lions. They won their last four games, including over the Green Bay Packers and the Bucs, which essentially knocked Tampa Bay from the playoffs. They finally won on the road this year, and won six games, most of them without the benefit of their franchise quarterback, Matthew Stafford. They have a defensive behemoth for the next decade in Ndamukong Suh and a smart coach. The turnaround probably feels as if it’s taking an eternity to coach Jim Schwartz, but the Lions are ahead of where almost everyone thought they would be two years into rebuilding. Next year, they could be the Bucs — way ahead of schedule and contending for a playoff spot. Smart, enthusiastic assistant coaches should send Schwartz and the Bucs’ Raheem Morris nice boxes of chocolates: They are big parts of the reason so many owners will eschew big names for more of their type after they fire their head coaches this week.

Bhamar says. “The NBA officials I have met have also praised me and see a great prospect in me,” he added. “I am going to give it everything.” Coach Teja Singh Dhaliwal, who runs an academy at Ludhiana City in the northern state of Punjab, remembers the day Bhamar walked in with his father wanting to play basketball. “He was 5 feet and 9 inches tall when he came to our facility five or six years ago. We had invited players for trials, and his height being exceptional for his age we decided to train him,” Dhaliwal said. Harish Sharma, secretary of India’s basketball federation and a former India player, is encouraged about Bhamar’s chances. “We are hoping he will be for India what Yao Ming was for China,” he said. “Though we have quite a few players who we hope will help improve the image of the game in the country, he has an iconic status already. “He is focussed, hardworking and has tremendous potential. One star player like this in NBA could mean a big boost for the game in India.”

Andy Tullis / The Bulletin

Bulletin sports reporter Amanda Miles get towed to the top of the hill recently while at the Autobahn Tubing Area at Hoodoo Mountain Resort.

Tubing Continued from D1 Or, for $21 or $27, you can slide the day away to your heartâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s content. Prices are higher on holidays. Tube riders must be at least 42 inches tall to slide at Snowblast, a standard Goggins says exists for safety purposes. Hoodooâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Autobahn Tubing Area is open on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Autobahn has eight lanes and a tow rope, though you can hoof it to the top of the hill if you prefer. Cost is $14 for a 10-run pass, or $20 or $25 dollars, depending on age, for an all-day pass. Children shorter than 42 inches or under the age of 6 must ride with an adult; double tubes are available for this purpose. When the resort is open, Hoodoo also offers the Snow Bunny Sled Hill near its Easy Rider lift. You can access the hill for free with a season pass or for $5 per day. Kiddie tube rentals are available for $5, or you can take your own gear. Keep in mind that Hoodoo admonishes that equipment must not reach excessive speeds and that gear that is difficult to control, such as car and truck tubes, is not allowed. Willamette Pass Resortâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Nordic and Tubing Center can be found at the west end of the main parking lot. The tubing area is open on Saturdays and Sundays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Cost is $12 for two hours and $6 for each additional hour, regardless of age. Note that sessions at these tubing areas can sell out, so plan ahead to maximize your slide time. If you have your own tube or sled and want a more freestyle, less regulated experience, several locations in Central Oregon can accommodate you. One of the most popular is Wanoga Sno-park, located on Century Drive about 14 miles southwest of Bend on the way to Mount Bachelor. The park includes the Wanoga Snoplay Area hill, which opened in December 2007 as a designated sledding and tubing hill. Sno-park parking permits are required, and you must provide your own sled or tube. Other sno-parks with sledding and tubing areas include Santiam Snopark, located on U.S. Highway 20 west of Sisters in the Willamette National Forest, and Marks Creek, less than 30 miles east of Prineville off U.S. Highway 26 in the Ochoco National Forest. The only sliding devices approved for use at Santiam Sno-park are inner tubes and saucers. In the Sunriver area, you can check out a hill near Sunriver Community Church on Theater Drive. And in Bend, Paul Stell, the natural resources manager for the Bend Park & Recreation District, says hill-seekers can find locations at Hollingshead Park and Al Moody Park, both in northeast Bend. He adds that Drake Park, Juniper Park and Ponderosa Park all have smaller inclines that might appeal to younger tykes. Just remember that wherever you go, be safe and have fun. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a blast,â&#x20AC;? says Goggins, who grew

up sliding down hills in Montana. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just another way to get out and enjoy the snow.â&#x20AC;? My turn: I have vague recollections of trying to sled at least once while growing up in the upper Willamette Valley. On one of the rare occasions that it snowed in the area, a couple of the neighbor kids busted out an old-school wooden sled â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with runners and everything â&#x20AC;&#x201D; on which I think we resorted to dragging each other around for lack of a decent hill. So I had few expectations of what it would be like to throw myself down an 800-foot slope on an inner tube when I took to the hill recently at the Autobahn Tubing Area at Hoodoo Mountain Resort. I opted to purchase the 10-run pass at the hut at the entrance, figuring those were plenty enough chances to scratch my hill-sliding itch. Then, I selected a tube and got in line for the tow rope, where I tried to muster some courage with the rationalization that if the small girl right in front of me could go tubing (on a double tube with her mother), well, I could, too. Upon reaching the top of the hill, I selected for my maiden run the lane closest to the tow, which the Hoodoo employee at the top told me was the gentlest of the eight options. I decided to sit in the tube with my legs hanging out for my descent. Then, I scooted myself down the slope just a bit until gravity took over. And off I went â&#x20AC;&#x201D; quickly spinning and bouncing off one of the carved-out bumpers of packed snow designed to keep me in my lane. At the end of the run, a set of rubber mats slowed my slide. It was all over in just a few seconds. I tried all eight runs that afternoon. My favorite was the sixth â&#x20AC;&#x201D; with its dip

Quick tips: The essentials The following tips for sledding and tubing are courtesy of the Center for Injury Research and Policy at Nationwide Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. Researchers there conducted a study of sleddingrelated injuries among children under age 19. The study, published in the journal â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pediatricsâ&#x20AC;? in September 2010, found that from 1997 to 2007, 229,023 children and adolescents were treated for sledding-related injuries in U.S. emergency rooms â&#x20AC;&#x201D; an average of more than 20,000 per year. Fractures (26 percent) and cuts and bruises (25 percent) were the most frequent injuries, and the head (34 percent) was the most commonly injured body part. Collisions (51 percent) were the most common accidents and were the most likely to cause a traumatic brain injury. Some of the researchersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; tips â&#x20AC;&#x201D; which are directed toward children but should serve adults as well â&#x20AC;&#x201D; include: 1. An adult should always accompany children sledding. 2. Always ride feet first. 3. Sled during the day when visibility is good. If you sled at night, the hill should be well lit and you should be able to see potential hazards. 4. Survey the scene. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Two of the main factors that contribute to

and rise, it proved to be the perfect mix of thrill and speed. I also found that I preferred to take the hill sitting, rather than lying down on my stomach. I took a couple of runs lying down, but I was more comfortable leading with my feet rather than my head. I also managed to get in a decent aerobic workout, which may come as a surprise. I wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t too keen on having to stand in line waiting for several minutes for the tow after every run, so I decided to play my own game of â&#x20AC;&#x153;speed tubingâ&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D; I tried to complete my 10 runs as quickly as possible, which meant I spent most of a little over an hour hiking up that hill nine times. But, since I was the only competitor in my game, I won. All in all, I had a good time, too. Tubing a lot of fun, and a bit of a rush. And â&#x20AC;&#x201D; perhaps best of all for the winter recreation neophyte â&#x20AC;&#x201D; you can just hop on your tube and fly. A few words to the wise based on my observations: 1. Make sure the person in front of you clears the run at the bottom before you start going down it. 2. Wear something that covers your eyes, such as sunglasses or goggles. Otherwise, you could get a bunch of snowy spray to the face, rendering you unable to see as you fly down the hill. Of course, maybe you would prefer it that way. 3. As you walk back to the tow after finishing your run, watch for incoming tubers. Momentum can carry them well past the mats, and though I did not witness any, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m thinking that in a collision between a tuber in a tube and a tuber on foot, the gravity-powered tuber is going to win every time. Amanda Miles can be reached at 541383-0393 or at amiles@bendbulletin. com.

sledding-related injuries are the environment and locale,â&#x20AC;? said study co-author and principal investigator Lara McKenzie in a press release announcing the study. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To reduce the risk of injury, sledding areas should be clear of trees and other obstacles and should have sufficient run-out areas away from streets. In addition, sledding on streets and highways should be avoided to prevent collisions with motor vehicles and other traffic.â&#x20AC;? 5. Do not pull someone with, or allow yourself to be pulled on a sliding device by, a motor vehicle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our findings indicate that the prevalence of this activity may be much greater and the practice more common than previously thought,â&#x20AC;? said McKenzie. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Given the potential for serious injury, children should never ride a sled that is being pulled by a motorized vehicle of any type.â&#x20AC;? 6. Use tubes in tubing parks because they are hard to steer. Andy Goggins, Mt. Bachelor ski areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s director of marketing and communications, estimates that it has been â&#x20AC;&#x153;several yearsâ&#x20AC;? since an injury has been reported at Snowblast Tubing Park. He says that â&#x20AC;&#x153;tubing can be dangerous if you do it outside of a controlled environment, such as a resort,â&#x20AC;? adding that a tubing park offers a â&#x20AC;&#x153;defined and controlled trajectory.â&#x20AC;?

you pick out a rat terrier? What about the flag of Bangladesh — do you know what that looks like? If so, you might be able to earn yourself a seri-

ously discounted (or even free) cab ride from Twilight Taxi. This Bend business, which started about eight months ago, is designed to mimic many aspects of the television show “Cash Cab,” which airs on the Discovery Channel. Owner Jacob Hall came up with the idea after hearing so many customers get into taxis and then ask “Is this Cash Cab?” hoping they would be on the popular game show. Here’s how the local game works: Riders get into the taxi and the driver asks if they want to play. If they say yes, the driver then plays a DVD filled with trivia questions. (Hall makes all the DVDs himself using PowerPoint.) If the customers get all the questions right during their cab ride, they

The whole idea is for the riders to have fun. Several of the cabs are painted bright colors and have flashing colored lights inside, giving the cabs a real party atmosphere. That is right up driver Troy Fraley’s alley. The 37-yearold has a knack for talking to people. He worked as a radio broadcaster on a local morning show for 11 years.

‘King’s Speech’ is inspiring, but takes some liberties History in the Movies is a series that examines the historical accuracy of movies based on real people and events.

ritics and audiences have embraced “The King’s Speech,” which explores the unusual relationship between England’s King George VI (father of the current monarch, Elizabeth II) and his speech therapist. The movie seems primed

CATHY SCHULTZ for Oscar glory. The acting is superb, particularly Colin Firth as the shy, stammering King, and Geoffrey Rush as Lionel Logue, his quirky Austra-

lian therapist. And the story is both timely — what with Prince William’s recent engagement spurring public interest in all things Windsor — and inspiring. Who could have imagined that overcoming a stutter would make for such gripping drama? But is the film good history? Here’s a guide to what it gets right, and what it misses. Did King George really stutter that badly?

The film shows Bertie (as he was known to family and friends) stammering constantly, in both formal and informal settings. He even stutters while telling a story to his young daughters. But that seems an exaggeration. His stammer apparently receded with family and friends. And even some of Bertie’s recorded speeches from the era show little evidence of it. See King / E6

In-laws’ bad attitude tests woman’s patience Dear Abby: How does one live peacefully and get along with one’s in-laws? I understand that everyone has different ideas, morals, etc., and I feel we should all try to respect one another’s differences. However, my in-laws make it extremely difficult to spend time with them. How does one eat at the same table with people who eat with their faces an inch from their plates and chew with their mouths open? How does one tolerate their complaining about everything and everyone? How does one coexist with people who think they’re perfect and the rest of the world is flawed? I thought about giving them an etiquette book as a gift, but my spouse told me not to waste the money. — Biting My Tongue in St. Paul, Minn. Dear Biting: An etiquette book would help only people who recognize they needed to consult one. The way to deal with your inlaws is, first, to remember they did one thing right: They produced your husband. Because their table manners offend you, visit with them after mealtime whenever possible. If you can’t avoid it, keep your eyes on your own plate. When they complain, respond with something positive or tactfully redirect the conversation to another subject. When they present themselves as perfect, never disagree — and see them as infrequently as possible. Dear Abby: My boyfriend of two years, “Bobby,” is still technically married to — and living with — his wife and child. He says he “has” to stay there because his son has learning difficulties and needs his support. Bobby wants to wait until his son is older and more stable. His wife is a shrew who is just there as a roommate. She knows all about our affair, but she wants to stay married. She says she still loves Bobby even though he no longer loves her. This triangle is stressful for me and Bobby. Don’t you think his

DEAR ABBY wife should wake up and smell the coffee? Bobby and I want to get on with our life together without all of this baggage constantly interfering with your plans. What should we do? — His True Love Dear True Love: The person who should be smelling the coffee isn’t Bobby’s wife — it’s you. You have invested two years of your life in a man who is as married as one can get. Bobby isn’t going anywhere, and the sooner you accept that fact the sooner you can find an eligible man to spend your life with. This may seem hard to accept, but if you don’t believe me, just give your “true love” an ultimatum. Dear Abby: Does a woman consider a man’s invitation to lunch as the next thing to his asking her to sleep with him? And what do others think about this invitation if the female mentions it to her husband or friends? One etiquette book said, in effect, “If the lunch is not about business, it’s about sex.” Pretty severe, I think. I asked a female co-worker to lunch for purely social reasons, but I have gotten reactions of derision from others about it. Can’t a man ask a female to lunch without some sort of negative social reaction? — Let’s Do Lunch, Missoula, Mont. Dear Let’s Do Lunch: In my book he can. And many do. To ask someone to lunch in the bright sunlight of high noon in a casual restaurant is hardly what I’d call a proposition. And I’ve never seen an etiquette book that implied that it is. It appears the “others” you have been telling have dirty minds and enjoy razzing you.

Thanks to a special fan, Uhura became the role of a lifetime

FRIDAY

By Luaine Lee

Jan. 14

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. — Though the part of the comely communications officer Uhura on the original series “Star Trek” turned out to be a lifelong role, actress Nichelle Nichols wanted to quit after the first season. After all, fate had pushed her into the part in the first place. “I loved Uhura,” she said. But “I just thought it was a segue, a nice experience to give me credits I hadn’t had before and would take my career to Broadway. “When I went in and told (executive producer Gene Roddenberry) I was thinking of leaving because I was being offered roles that were going where I wanted them to go — musical theater — it was a Friday I’ll never forget. He said, ‘You can’t do this. Don’t you realize what I’m trying to get done here?’ I said, ‘Well, I think you’ve done a fantastic job, Gene.’ He said, ‘OK, take the weekend and think about it and if you still feel that way Monday morning you’ll go with my blessings.’ ”

’You cannot leave’ The next day she attended an NAACP fundraiser, when one of the promoters told her there was a fan who wanted to meet her. “So I thought it was a Trekker. And I said, ‘Oh, certainly.’ I got up and crossed the room to meet the face of Dr. Martin Luther King. I remember thinking, ‘Whoever that Trekker is, he’s going to have to wait.’ And he smiled and said, ‘I am the biggest Trekkie on the planet.’ ” Jingling the ivory and turquoise bracelets on her left arm, she says, “I’ve never been at a loss for words but my mouth just opened and closed. I was stunned. He told me how important the role was and the manner I’d developed the character, with strength and dignity. All I could say was, ‘Thank you so much, Dr. King, I’m going to miss my co-stars.’ I said, ‘I’m leaving the show.’ He said, ‘You cannot leave. ... It’s part of history now. This man has made this

show that projects 300 years from now. This is who we are and we are beginning here, and you’re representing us. You cannot leave because nobody can replace you. Only you.’ “I changed my mind right there because I was ordered,” she says. “That was my leader. ... I could do nothing but Monday morning go in and tell Gene Roddenberry what Dr. King had said, and if he still wanted me, I would stay. And I stayed and never looked back.” She’s looking back now as PBS presents season 2 of “Pioneers of Television” beginning Jan. 18 (check local listings). The first segment covers science fiction, and “Star Trek” and its team of intrepid space travelers were among those pioneers.

Counting her blessings Nichols finally triumphed in musical theater, but never to the extent she wanted. So she wrote her own musical, a one-woman show, which was very successful. “And every time I got close to starring on Broadway, they’d make a ‘Star Trek’ motion picture and they couldn’t do it without Uhura,” she says. “We did six major motion pictures so I just finally said: ‘It’s not going to happen because every two years ...’ But I don’t regret a moment of it. I’m a singer and an actor, I was a dancer, choreographer and writer but there wasn’t enough time in the day for me to do everything I wanted. And so I really realized that ‘Star Trek’ had truly interrupted my career, but I didn’t regret it because I was doing so much. And here I was — Uhura more and more.” Still beautiful at 78, Nichols has been married and divorced twice and is the mother of a son, of whom she’s very proud. As the first black woman ever to assume a non-stereotypical role on television, she feels she owes fate for its fickle turn. “Somehow I’ve always felt that everything that happens TO me happens FOR me. It’s true,” she says.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, Jan. 4, 2011: This year, when you have hit smooth sailing, other events force you to restructure another segment of your life. In some ways, your perspective is myopic, and you cannot see the big picture or the ramifications. Perhaps one of the reasons this “blindness” exists is to help you get into the process. If you are single, your charisma sings to many. You decide who will put words to your tune. If you are attached, the two of you might go through some changes. You could be unusually me-oriented. CAPRICORN could be difficult at best. 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) HHHH Follow your intuition. Nothing too bad can happen, as you are wearing a cosmic lucky rabbit’s foot wherever you go. You also will be gaining a lot of insight through your acute observations. Not everything is happening as you would like it to. Tonight: Be ready to say that you need to cancel plans. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Slow down and take another look, even if you’re revving to go. One friend who is close to you acts quite shocked and stunned. Others are more supportive. You know what to do and where you are going. Tonight: Be willing to change your plans. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Deal with others directly. You might think that another person

is pushing the line. There is more to the story that’s forthcoming. Your flexibility will be tested. Tonight: Togetherness is the theme. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Defer to others, especially as no matter what you do, it could go wrong. Don’t be responsible for what starts today. Detach and understand what is happening on a deeper level. You might need those insights. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.” LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Stay focused on and honor your priorities. You will be a lot happier that way. Examine alternatives presented by key people. Some of the issues you deal with could involve finances and personal matters. Keep your cool. Tonight: Squeeze in some exercise. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHHH Allow problems to be the key to new perspectives. Gain an understanding of what really might be going on behind the scenes. Your caring evolves to a new level, though you feel this bond could be risky. Use care, please. Tonight: You might be more upbeat than many. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Stay sensitive to a developing domestic or personal situation. Just because you might have hit an impasse doesn’t mean you will be stuck for long. People revise their thinking when they see they are not achieving the desired results. Tonight: Head home. Smile. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH What might feel like a stalemate or uncontrollable is not. You simply are understanding

the limits of your own power. By accepting the fact that you can only control yourself, you open an unforeseen door. Stay open. Tonight: Chatting up a storm. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Use wisdom with your finances. If you don’t, what might be only a bump in the road could evolve into a major hill. You don’t want that, do you? Build security rather than destroy it. A family member acts most unpredictably. Tonight: Fun doesn’t necessarily have to cost. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH The spotlight is on you. A Solar Eclipse in your sign signals strong changes ahead. Don’t consider change to be anything but beneficial. Sometimes we need to release certain issues in order to move forward. If you are drained, stop and do what is appropriate. Tonight: Be unavailable to a boss ... just for now! AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Sometimes you need to pull away from everyone. Everyone, especially you, needs private time. You have such a gang of friends and loved ones that sometimes you get exhausted. Think about ways to better conserve your energy. Tonight: Continue the vanishing act. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH You might be disappointed with what is going on, and frustrated as well. The immediate set of events is not the final story. You can expect a lot more to happen in the next few moments. Don’t remain vested in the outcome. Tonight: Having fun. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

King Continued from E1 Yet perhaps the film’s exaggeration points to a deeper truth. Although the stammer was not as chronic as shown, Bertie apparently lived in constant dread of its recurrence. As a royal, he had frequent public speaking duties, which were a lifelong ordeal. His wife Elizabeth (later to be the Queen Mother) was affected as well. A contemporary observer from the 1920s describes a dinner at which the future King George rose to speak, and his anxious young wife gripped the table so hard her knuckles grew white. Even years later, the recollection of those years pained her. According to the New York Times, when research on “The King’s Speech” began in the 1980s, the Queen Mother’s approval was sought. “Please, not during my lifetime,” she replied. “The memory of these events is still too painful.” The film was put off until after her death in 2002. The film shows a speech “expert” telling Bertie to smoke cigarettes, and to fill his mouth with marbles to cure his stammer. Was that kind of advice typical? Bertie went to many speech therapists (to no avail) before meeting Logue, but it’s not clear whether he ever received that particular “treatment.” The marbles “therapy” originated with Demosthenes, and continued to be used into the 20th century. The idea was that marbles (or pebbles — Demosthenes’ original suggestion) stuffed into the mouth caused stutterers to speak slowly and carefully, in order to avoid swallowing the marbles. Clearly lawsuits were not an issue in Demosthenes’ day. As for the smoking, Bertie probably needed little encouragement there. He smoked heavily his whole life, and the habit led eventually to lung cancer, contributing to his early death (he was just 56) in 1952. Was Lionel Logue really so casual with the future King George? Yes and no. Logue did insist that the Duke of York (Bertie’s title at the time) come to Logue’s office for therapy, which was a breach of protocol. (Typically people waited upon the royals, not vice versa.) But he probably didn’t go so far as to call him “Bertie.” Letters between the two suggest a more formal relationship than the film shows, with Logue typically addressing the Duke (later King) as “Your Royal Highness.”

Colin Firth, left, and Geoffrey Rush star in “The King’s Speech.”

Journalist Peter Conradi argues persuasively that the film is right to emphasize the friendship between the two men. After King George’s death, the Queen Mother wrote to (speech therapist Lionel) Logue acknowledging their close relationship. “I know perhaps better than anyone just how much you helped the king,” she wrote, “not only with his speech, but through … his whole life & outlook on life.” Yet journalist Peter Conradi (co-author of the book, “The King’s Speech”) argues persuasively that the film is right to emphasize the friendship between the two men. After King George’s death, the Queen Mother wrote to Logue acknowledging their close relationship. “I know perhaps better than anyone just how much you helped the king,” she wrote, “not only with his speech, but through … his whole life & outlook on life.” How long did Logue treat the future King? For dramatic tension, the filmmakers tightened the real-life chronology. The film appears to take place over just a few years, culminating in the King’s speech in September 1939, at the outbreak of World War II. But Logue actually began treating the Duke of York in 1926. Bertie was a model pupil, and practiced Logue’s prescribed vocalization exercises so diligently that within a few years his confidence and speech delivery

improved dramatically, and he effectively ended his sessions with Logue. By the early 1930s, in fact, the Duke was visiting Logue’s office only rarely, and the two kept in infrequent contact through letters. But when Bertie unexpectedly ascended to the throne (after his elder brother, King Edward VIII, abdicated in 1936 to marry Wallis Simpson, the twice-divorced American) he once again sought out Logue’s help. So the film is correct in showing Logue working closely with King George through his coronation speech, as well as assisting him in many of the significant speeches that followed. The two stayed close until the King’s death in 1952. Did Lionel keep his wife unaware of his famous patient? It makes for a funny scene, but it’s not true. In fact, Lionel’s wife, Myrtle Logue, was invited to be “presented” at court to King George V and Queen Mary (Bertie’s parents) just a year or

Pet owners win cheers (and some jeers) for 2010 By Lisa Moore McClatchy-Tribune News Service

The new year has arrived, and it seems like a good time to reflect on the good, the bad and the ugly of 2010. Here is a list of cheers and jeers: • Cheers to all pet owners who, despite the rough economy, manage to continue to care for the family pets. Our pets are domesticated animals, and as such need people to house them and look after them. Blessings to those of you who truly consider your pets part of your family. • Jeers to those who have abandoned their pets, leaving many of them to starve or try to eke out an existence on their own. Even when times are tough, there are many respon-

sible avenues to explore other than abandonment. • Cheers to those who donated pet food along with clothing and food for families during this season of giving. • Cheers to dog owners who, despite inclement weather, remain dedicated to providing their dogs with much-needed exercise and activity. But jeers to those dog walkers who still don’t get that it’s their responsibility to pick up after their pet. Honestly, people, take along a plastic grocery bag! • Cheers to our ever-loyal furry companions. The warmth of a kitty on your lap and the joy your dog shows when you walk through the door are enough to brighten any dreary winter day.

Weekly Arts & Entertainment

Trivia Continued from E1 When the riders seem game, Fraley is on, cajoling, chiming in, sharing stories, even coming up with a joke of the day (which he refused to repeat because we might think it was dirty). “Whatever it takes to have fun,” said Fraley. When he isn’t quizzing riders about trivia, he often finds himself in bartender mode: listening to problems and lots of life stories. “I’m just your buddy, asking for gas money.” The Bulletin followed along on a recent Thursday night to check out the trivia taxi in action. Fraley works from 6 p.m. to 6 a.m. On a busy Saturday night, Fraley picks up 40 or 50 rides. On other nights, he may get a two- or three-hour break (he usually either goes home or uses the Internet access in his cab to surf the Web or watch movies). On those busy weekend nights, many of the customers are those who have been out having a good time at local bars, looking for a safe ride home. During our ride-along, Fraley picked up three fares and all of them wanted to play trivia (Fraley guesses about 80 percent of customers want to play). Although none of them won, they all seemed to like it and all kept playing even after it was clear they weren’t going to get the discount. “Most want to keep going even if they get one wrong,” said Fraley. Hall says only about 10 percent of people earn the discount. And most of those still offer a tip to the driver. Even though the cab company is basically giving away money, the ultimate goal is to breed customer loyalty. Some questions are fairly easy. How many musical instruments accompany a musician a cappella? Or fill in the sentence: Come

so after Lionel began treating Bertie, as a gesture of appreciation toward the Logue family. Myrtle wrote an enthusiastic account of the experience for an Australian newspaper, describing the feathers, pearls and train that adorned her “court dress.” Wallis Simpson, the love interest (and later wife) of Bertie’s older brother David, comes off as quite the shrew. Is that accurate? Shrewiness is in the eye of the beholder. Americans then and now tended to see Prince David (aka King Edward VIII) and Wallis Simpson as a romantic hero and heroine, and have sighed dreamily over his decision to give up the throne for the woman he loved. The English, however, were shocked and appalled. They saw King Edward’s decision to abdicate as deeply dishonorable, and Wallis Simpson as scheming and selfish. Suffice it to say that the English interpretation holds sway in this film. What’s a good source for more information? Journalist Peter Conradi teamed up with Mark Logue (Lionel’s grandson) to write “The King’s Speech,” which adds context and nuance to the film’s story. It’s well worth a read.

Michael Cherney, 24, reads a trivia question off the screen while riding in a Twilight Taxi last week. He was stumped by a question about the largest meat-eating dinosaur (he guessed T-rex, but the answer is giganotosaurus). hell or high (blank). Others are much more difficult. Mike Dillow, 44, of Bend, whizzed through his first several questions. He knew an aardvark was also known as an earth pig and that wheat was the most grown and eaten food in the world. “I watch a lot of ‘Jeopardy,’ ” said Dillow, who is enrolled in a radiology program at Central Oregon Community College. His downfall, about nine questions in, came when he was asked to name a breed of dog pictured in a photo. He thought the Pyrenean mastiff was a St. Bernard. Michael Cherney, 24, didn’t fare as well, getting knocked off by an early question about the largest meat-eating dinosaur. He guessed T-rex, and the answer is giganotosaurus. “I never even heard of a giganotosaurus,” he said. Bend married couple Kelley Thompson, 23, and Dustin Jones, 28, take Twilight Taxi a lot. “We love this cab ride,” said Thompson. “You know we want

a free ride,” joked Jones. Although they lost out early (couldn’t name the capital of Iceland), they continued playing and joking with each other for the entire ride. After Thompson guessed one right answer, she said, “The girl’s got brains, don’t let the blond hair fool ya.” They said they have won a couple of discounted rides so far. Fraley believes the word is out about the trivia cab and that people really like it, especially those 20-somethings who are out late at night. Hall is planning to expand. Drivers have coupons from local restaurants and businesses they can hand out, and there are plans in the works for cash giveaways. They also have plans to begin operating a karaoke cab in the near future. That way, even if you can’t answer the questions to earn a free ride, at least you’ll be able to sing the blues all the way home. Alandra Johnson can be reached at 541-617-7860.

On the pond By Penny Nakamura For The Bulletin

ark at night and silent by day, a historic 1930s home in this prestigious Bend neighborhood seemed a bit spooky to some neighbors. Some

even dubbed it “The Bates Motel” while it sat vacant for two years. But it’s spooky no more, thanks to the warm and talented hands of its new owners, Laurie Ann McMillin Ray and her husband, Rick Ray. McMillin Ray, a Laurie Ann McMillin Ray with Bristol, front, Claire, middle, and Easton.

If you’re looking for one more thing to celebrate in the new year, then let’s talk crab. It’s been a good couple of years for the Oregon Dungeness crab industry. In May of 2009, the Dungeness crab became the official state crustacean. It’s not easy becoming an official state anything — just ask the folks behind the Marionberry, who had their hopes dashed in the home stretch. But the state’s Dungeness crab had a powerful lobby: the fourthgrade class at Sunset Primary School in West Linn. Those kids were relentless, passing out brochures, making speeches and just being tenacious little fourthgraders. When the bill passed the House in April 2009, the Dungeness Crab Commission handed out crab cocktails in plastic champagne glasses to celebrate. See Crab / F2

GARDEN

Garden wall? Lava rock is there for you By Leon Pantenburg For The Bulletin

Look outside, and see the snow on the ground. The growing season is over. It’s too late for fall pruning, and too early to start pruning trees and shrubs for spring. Except for some regular tree and shrub watering, you can’t do anything in your garden. Accept it. But that doesn’t keep hardcore gardeners from needing some project that involves dirt under their fingernails. So, now is a good time to think about spring garden projects, such as that decorative stone wall idea you’ve been kicking around. See Wall / F5

COVER STORY

Crab Continued from F1 Then the bill skated through the Senate on a 23-2 vote. The most vocal holdout was Senate Minority Leader Ted Ferrioli, R-John Day, who believed the state crustacean honor should be held by Senate President Peter Courtney, D-Salem. But I’m not going there. Then just a few weeks ago, another honor was bestowed upon our state crustacean — or at least the industry that brings it closer to our kitchens. The Oregon Dungeness crab fishery earned the Marine Stewardship Council certification. As an independent, nonprofit organization, MSC’s goal is to reward sustainable fishing practices around the world. It’s a global recognition that informs consumers that the Oregon crab industry is committed to harvesting crabs in the most environmentally sustainable manner, and has maintained healthy and robust stock. It’s not recognition that’s given lightly. The Oregon Dungeness crab fishery is one of only three crab fisheries in the world to receive MSC certification, and the only one of the five Dungeness fisheries along the West Coast, which includes California, Washington, British Columbia and Alaska. Yet another reason to support the state’s most valuable single-species fisheries, as if you needed an excuse to indulge in one of winter’s most delectable culinary gifts. My hands-down favorite way to enjoy Dungeness crab is straight out of a crab pot where it’s been boiled just long enough to cook the juicy, tender morsels locked inside that crusty hard-shell exterior. So a crab feed it is! If you’re scratching your head over how to tackle such a feast, see the sidebar. I usually support such simplicity with an equally simple set of side dishes. A big ol’ crunchy green salad, for example, chock-full of fresh veggies and a zesty dressing. Or sometimes, a richly flavored coleslaw, layered with other Pacific Northwest delights, such as richly toasted hazelnuts and local smoky bacon. Something like that, along with some fresh artisan bread, and you’re truly set to ring in the New Year. Have a happy one. And bon appétit.

Cooking live crab for a crab feed

Julie Johnson / The Bulletin

A salad of baby greens with Fuji apples, hazelnuts and blue cheese pairs wonderfully with Dungeness crab.

SALAD OF FUJI APPLES, BABY GREENS AND ROASTED HAZELNUTS Makes 4 to 6 servings. Everything clicks in this mixture, as long as you select apples with exceptional flavor and crispness. And among the things it goes wonderfully with is Dungeness crab. It’s another salad from “Oregon Hazelnut Country.” 5 to 6 C of mixed greens, including hearts of romaine leaves (the light green, crisp inner portion of a head of Romaine lettuce), and baby arugula 2 to 3 flavorful apples (such as Braeburn, Fuji or honeycrisp), peeled

and cored, then sliced as described below Scant 1 C of crumbled blue cheese 1 C coarsely chopped roasted and skinned hazelnuts Balsamic Vinaigrette with Sweet Honey Mustard (recipe follows)

To prepare the peeled and cored apples, cut each half into ¼inch-thick slices, then cut each slice into thirds. Place the apples in a small bowl and toss with enough of the vinaigrette to coat the pieces. You can prepare the apple mixture up to an hour ahead. If you coat the apples with the dressing any longer than that, they will absorb too much of the vinaigrette, which overwhelms the apple flavor To serve: Arrange the mixed greens on individual salad plates. Divide the apple mixture among the salads. Top each serving with a portion of the cheese and then a portion of the hazelnuts. Drizzle an extra bit of the vinaigrette over the greens and around the edges of the salad. Alternatively: You could substitute feta or cheddar cheese for the blue cheese. Another serving option would be to assemble the entire salad on a large platter instead of individual salad plates.

SLAW BERNOISE Makes about 8 to 10 servings. This salad is simply delectable. Just the right amount of zing. And so wonderful with fresh crab. 6 C shredded green cabbage 2 C finely chopped celery ½ lb (about 2 cups) Emmenthal or other finequality Swiss cheese, cut into julienne strips 1 sm clove garlic, finely minced 2 TBS fresh lemon juice 2 TBS white wine vinegar 2 tsp Dijon mustard 1⁄3 C olive oil Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste 2 hard-cooked eggs, peeled and coarsely chopped In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, celery and cheese. In a small bowl, whisk together the garlic, lemon juice, vinegar and mustard until well blended. Whisk in the oil, then pour the dressing over the salad mixture, tossing well to completely coat the ingredients with the dressing. Add salt and pepper to taste. Chill well before serving. Adjust flavorings before serving, adding splashes of lemon juice, vinegar or mustard as needed. To serve, garnish with coarsely chopped eggs. — Adapted from “Greene on Greens” by Bert Greene

BALSAMIC VINAIGRETTE WITH SWEET HONEY MUSTARD AND HAZELNUT OIL Makes about 1¼ cup. I designed this vinaigrette to go with the Salad of Fuji Apples, Baby Greens and Roasted Hazelnuts. It’s also a wonderful dressing to have on hand for any number of your winter salads incorporating fresh greens, fruits and nuts. The hint of vanilla gives it a lovely toasty quality that complements the nuts and some cheeses, such as cheddar, feta, blue cheese and provolone. Even shavings of a good-quality Swiss or extraaged Gouda would work. ½ C red or white wine vinegar 2 tsp balsamic vinegar 1 tsp sugar 1 tsp sweet honey mustard ½ tsp salt ½ tsp vanilla 1 ⁄3 C hazelnut oil (if available) 1 ⁄3 C canola oil In a container, whisk together the vinegars, sugar, mustard, salt and vanilla, then whisk in the oils. Note: If you have trouble finding the hazelnut oil, or you don’t want to invest in the expense, simply use all canola oil.

Where Buyers And Sellers Meet

First of all, when it comes to obtaining live crab, whether you head to the coast or seek it out closer to home, don’t forget to bring along a cooler or really sturdy box. Once home, as long as they’re kept well chilled (and out of melting ice, because they’ll drown), Dungeness crabs will stay lively for many hours. As for cooking live crabs, my favorite Corvallis crab expert, Harry Daughters of Harry & Annette’s Fish Market, highly recommends cleaning the crabs BEFORE cooking them. Cooking time is less, which means the meat will be even more sweet and tender. But for cooks who are a tad squeamish about this approach, which I’m about to describe, skip to the next paragraph! ... For those still with me, to clean your crabs prior to cooking, pry off the shells, break the crabs in half (they’re killed instantly), shake or rinse out the viscera, pluck out the gills and immediately drop into a gallon or more (figure on at least 2 gallons for four crabs) of boiling salted water (4 heaping tablespoons of salt per gallon of water). After the water returns to a boil, cook for 10 to 12 minutes. Another approach: For those who don’t want to spend that much time around a live crab — and who can blame you? — the preferred approach is to drop them while still kicking into that boiling salted water, then

when the water returns to a boil, cook for 20 to 30 minutes, depending on their size. After cooking, clean the crab by removing the back shell, rinse out the viscera and pull off the gill filaments (these will be very obvious to you when you get around to doing it). Once the crabs have cooked, cool slightly in ice water until they can be handled, then pull all of the legs from the main body and, using anything that can be viewed as a kitchen mallet — such as a metal ice cracker or meat tenderizer, or even a rolling pin — whack the crabs in several spots to loosen the shells for easy removal of the meat. Pile the cracked legs and bodies into big bowls, set them on the table along with melted butter, fresh lemons and side dishes, and let friends and family have at it. For the uninitiated, demonstrate how the pointy end of a claw can be used to pry crab meat from the far reaches of legs and body cavities. Yet another approach: Buy your crabs already cooked. Most fish markets offer this option. Just make sure it was cooked on the same day of purchase so you can enjoy the freshest and sweetest flavor. How many people per crab? The general rule around our house is two people per crab, unless the crab is smaller than 1½ pounds, at which point you should play it safe and have one crab per person. Plus, for groups larger than four, I always throw in one crab “for the pot.” — Jan Roberts-Dominguez

ROASTED HAZELNUT SLAW Makes 4 servings. This recipe is from my new cookbook, “Oregon Hazelnut Country — the Food, the Drink, the Spirit.” Because it’s so easy to assemble at the last minute and stands up so well on a buffet table, it’s become my new best friend. I brought it to two parties in December, both times to rave review. It’s a warm and savory melange of tender-crunchy cabbage, smoky bacon and roasted hazelnuts. It’s a wonderful accompaniment to fresh Dungeness crab. Likewise, it’s delightful alongside grilled albacore, pork tenderloins and so much more. In truth, it’s a dynamite dish all on its own, either fresh from the skillet, or as a warmed-up leftover from the microwave. 8 slices thick-cut smoked pepper bacon, diced 3 cloves garlic, chopped 1½ C chopped onion ½ C balsamic vinegar ¾ C Rogue Toasted Hazelnut Brown Nectar (or another amber or brown nut ale) About one-half head green

cabbage, shredded to measure 5 to 6 cups 2 TBS wine vinegar 1 TBS olive oil 2 tsp chopped fresh thyme 1 C chopped roasted and skinned hazelnuts Salt Black pepper

Place the bacon in a medium sauté pan and cook over medium heat until crispy; then transfer to a paper towel to drain. Add the garlic and onion to the pan, and sauté in the bacon grease over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes. Add the sherry and cook until reduced by half, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the cabbage and cook just until wilted, but still slightly crunchy, about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Add the sherry vinegar, olive oil, thyme and walnuts, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Toss in the reserved bacon (crumble it first). and keep warm until ready to use.

WILDWOOD’S COLESLAW Makes 6 servings. Over the years, I’ve found that it’s the simple little twists that turn a humdrum coleslaw into an extraordinary one. This is one such slaw: Savoy or Napa cabbage instead of its crunchier green cabbage makes for a tender offering; fennel seeds added to the classic mayonnaise dressing; lots of freshly ground black pepper. It’s a great one to bring to a crab feed, and has its roots in Portland where chef Cory Schreiber introduced it at his famous eatery, Wildwood. 1 sm head Savoy cabbage (Napa cabbage is a decent substitute) 2 carrots, peeled and coarsely grated 1 sm red onion, cut in half and thinly sliced lengthwise ¼ C chopped fresh flat-leaf

parsley ¼ C mayonnaise ¼ C red wine vinegar 1 TBS fennel seeds, toasted and coarsely ground (see note below) ¾ tsp salt ½ tsp fresh ground pepper

Halve the cabbage lengthwise and cut out the core. Cut the cabbage into thin crosswise slices. In a large bowl, combine the cabbage, carrots, onion and parsley. In a small bowl, blend the mayonnaise, vinegar, fennel seeds, salt and pepper. Add to the cabbage mixture and toss. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. The salad will keep for up to 3 days in the refrigerator. Note on toasted fennel seeds: Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Put the desired amount of seeds in a single layer on a jelly-roll pan. Toast in the oven for 10 minutes, or until they begin to darken in color, occasionally shaking the pan so the seeds will toast evenly. Remove the seeds from the oven and pour them onto a cool pan. To coarsely grind, put them in a spice mill and grind just until broken up and barely turning to powder. — From “Wildwood, Cooking from the Source in the Pacific Northwest” by Cory Schreiber

F SHEPHERD’S PIE WITH EGGPLANT Makes 6 servings.

Photos by James M. Thresher / For The Washington Post

Shepherd’s pie is given a Mediterranean tweak by adding eggplant to the ground-lamb-and-tomato base and topping the mashed potatoes with feta cheese. Garnish with chives.

Tuna noodle casserole, I’ll do you one (or even two) better By David Hagedorn Special to The Washington Post

After a lifetime of ambivalence toward the casserole, I have reconsidered my position. This holiday season convinced me that when a surfeit of obligations comes up against a paucity of time, it’s not such a bad thing to have a lamb-and-eggplant shepherd’s pie in the freezer for relatives or unexpected guests. To many, the all-American casserole evokes heartwarming comfort-food memories. But that is not my experience. My mother turned her nose up, literally, at the mention of the word; having made nothing but casseroles as a newlywed, she could not stand the thought of them once she “learned how to cook.” “‘Casserole,’” she liked to say, “is the French word for ‘glop.’” Despite our mother’s interdiction, my siblings and I, children

BUTTERNUT SQUASH, KALE AND SHIITAKE CASSEROLE

of divorce, were regularly exposed to casseroles during trips to visit our father in Alabama. Our stepmother’s repertoire included perennially popular concoctions: asparagus-pea, broccoli-rice, green bean-mushroom. Those offerings did not necessarily disprove our mother’s assessment of casseroles, thanks mostly to the fact that their main ingredients, condensed soup and canned or frozen vegetables, shared exactly the same soft, unappetizing texture. But along with the abundance of sodium that some of those ingredients contained, other tastebud triggers made the casseroles hard to resist: fat of some sort; gooey or processed cheeses; sour cream; crunchy toppings such as crushed cornflakes, buttered bread crumbs and frizzled onions; and sometimes the ultimate bet-hedger: bacon.

And so, as a supposed entertaining expert who has been caught off guard more than once in recent weeks (no time to go to the grocery store; friends coming over in an hour; fridge basically empty), I set out to devise some one-dish wonders of my own, minus the cans of soup and other processed ingredients. For the basic formula, I broke out the components of most onedish meals (protein, vegetable, starch) and filled in the blanks. I started with a personal favorite, shepherd’s pie, and gave it a Mediterranean tweak, adding eggplant to the ground-lamband-tomato base and topping a layer of mashed Yukon Gold and sweet potatoes with feta cheese and a drizzle of olive oil. The dish freezes nicely, cooked or uncooked. For a meatless Monday dish — assembled on Sunday — I

highlighted butternut squash, shiitake mushrooms and earthy kale with Asian accents: coconut milk, lemon grass, galangal, green chili peppers, ginger, tamari, sesame seeds and chili paste with garlic. When the casserole bakes, the kale leaves on top crisp up to add a nice crunch. I never once ate tuna noodle casserole as a kid, but apparently that was not the case with my partner. “Is that tuna noodle casserole?” Michael gushed with the kind of enthusiasm he never demonstrated for my sous-vide salmon experiments. He wolfed down a square of it, made as a lasagna with peas, mushrooms, scallions, dill and a zesty bechamel sauce, and then asked for seconds. Good thing there are two more batches of it in the freezer, one made with salmon.

TUNA OR SALMON NOODLE CASSEROLE REDUX Makes 6 servings.

Makes 8 to 10 servings. ⁄2 C low-fat coconut milk 2 TBS Thai green curry paste, such as Thai Kitchen brand 1 tsp Chinese chili paste with garlic, such as Lan Chi brand 1- to 11⁄2 -inch piece peeled ginger root, finely grated or pureed (1 TBS) 1 ⁄4 C cream of coconut 2 TBS low-sodium soy sauce or tamari 21⁄2 pounds peeled, seeded butternut squash, cut into 2-inch pieces 8 oz large shiitake mushroom caps, cut into quarters 1 bunch (9 oz) kale, center veins removed, leaves torn into large pieces and rinsed and blotted dry 2 TBS white sesame seeds 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Lightly coat a 9-by-13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking oil spray. Use a whisk to combine the coconut milk, Thai curry paste, Chinese chili paste, ginger, cream of coconut and soy sauce or tamari in a large mixing bowl. Add the squash pieces, mushrooms and kale; stir to coat evenly. Transfer the vegetables to the baking dish, making sure there are plenty of kale leaves on top (so they will crisp during baking). Sprinkle the top evenly with sesame seeds. Cover with a layer of parchment paper, then seal tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for 35 minutes, then uncover and bake for 25 minutes, or until the squash is fork-tender and the kale on top is dark brown and crisp. Serve warm.

1 TBS olive oil 4 oz sliced mushrooms 2 C frozen mixed peas and carrots, defrosted 1 bunch scallions, white and light-green parts, chopped (1⁄2 C) 1 sm bunch dill, chopped (1⁄4 C, packed) 1 tsp salt, plus more for seasoning vegetables 1 ⁄2 tsp freshly ground black pepper, plus more for seasoning the vegetables 4 tablespoons (1⁄2 stick) unsalted butter, cut into small pieces 1 ⁄4 C flour 4 med cloves garlic, chopped 1 tsp powdered mustard, such as Colman’s

12 oz canned nonfat evaporated milk (may substitute regular milk) 21⁄2 C whole or low-fat milk 1 TBS Worcestershire sauce 1 ⁄2 tsp hot pepper sauce, such as Tabasco brand 1 ⁄4 C freshly grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese 10 sheets no-cook lasagna noodles, such as Barilla brand Four 5-oz cans tuna in oil, drained and broken up into chunks with a fork; or 20 ounces thinly sliced salmon fillet 1 ⁄4 C panko (Japanese-style) bread crumbs 1 ⁄2 tsp smoked Spanish paprika

Lightly grease a 2-quart square casserole dish with nonstick cooking oil spray. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Heat the oil in a medium sauté pan over mediumhigh heat until the oil shimmers. Add the mushrooms and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they exude their juices and become lightly browned. Transfer to a medium bowl; stir in the peas and carrots, scallions and dill. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and the garlic; cook for a few minutes, stirring, to get rid of the raw-flour taste. Add the powdered mustard, then gradually stir in the evaporated milk and the whole or low-fat milk (or all milk, if you are using), whisking continually to keep lumps from forming. Add the Worcestershire and hot pepper sauces, the 1 teaspoon of salt and the 1⁄2 teaspoon of pepper. Cook the sauce for 6 to 7 minutes, stirring constantly, until it achieves the consistency of thick gruel. Stir in the cheese. Remove the sauce from the heat and let it cool for 10 minutes. To assemble: Spread 1⁄2 cup of the cooled sauce and a sprinkling of vegetables on the bottom of the casserole. (This will prevent the noodles from sticking.) Place 2 lasagna sheets side by side on the bottom. Top the sheets with a quarter of the remaining vegetable mix, a quarter of the tuna or salmon and 3⁄4 cup of sauce. Starting with a noodle layer, repeat for 3 more layers, then top with a layer of lasagna sheets. (That makes a total of 5 layers of noodles, vegetables and sauce, and four layers of the tuna or salmon.) It is okay if some of the sauce and vegetables pool around the stacked noodles. Spread the remaining sauce on the top layer of lasagna noodles and sprinkle the panko evenly over the sauce. Sprinkle with smoked paprika. Cover the casserole (loosely, don’t smash it) with a square of parchment paper, then seal with aluminum foil. Bake for 35 minutes, then uncover and bake for 20 minutes to brown the crumbs. (If you want them a little browner, turn the broiler on for a couple of minutes and monitor the casserole closely.) Allow the casserole to rest for 10 minutes before serving.

FOR THE TOPPING: 1 lb (2 lg) Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes 1 lb (1 lg) sweet potatoes, cut into 1-inch slices 8 whole cloves garlic 2 TBS olive oil 1 ⁄3 C low-sodium chicken broth or heavy cream, or a combination of both Salt Freshly ground black pepper FOR THE FILLING: 1 ⁄4 C olive oil 3 ⁄4 lb unpeeled eggplant, trimmed and cut into 1-inch cubes (4 C) 1 tsp salt, plus more to taste 1 ⁄2 tsp freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste 8 oz sliced white or baby bella mushrooms 1 sm yellow onion, chopped (3⁄4 C) 1 lb lean ground lamb 3 med cloves garlic, chopped 1 tsp dried thyme leaves 1 tsp dried oregano leaves 1 ⁄2 tsp onion powder 1 ⁄2 tsp garlic powder 1 ⁄4 tsp ground cinnamon 1 C tomato sauce FOR ASSEMBLY: 3 oz (1⁄3 C) crumbled feta or freshly grated ParmigianoReggiano cheese Lightly grease a 6-cup casserole or fluted deep-dish pie plate with nonstick cooking oil spray. For the topping: Combine the potatoes, sweet potatoes and whole garlic cloves in a pot; cover with salted water. Cook over medium-high heat until the potatoes are fork-tender. Drain and put the potatoes and garlic through a ricer into a large bowl. Add the oil and the broth and/or heavy cream, stirring until smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from the heat; cover loosely. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. For the filling: Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large nonstick sauté pan over mediumhigh heat until the oil shimmers. Add the eggplant and cook for about 5 to 7 minutes, stirring often, until it is lightly browned and soft. Season with salt and pepper to taste; transfer to a bowl. Return the pan to medium-high heat; add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil. Once the oil starts to shimmer, add the mushrooms and onion; cook for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have exuded their juices and have browned. Add the lamb, breaking it up with a spoon but not crumbling it completely. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes, or until no traces of pink remain. Drain all but a thin coating of fat from the pan. Add the chopped garlic, thyme, oregano, onion powder, garlic powder, cinnamon, 1 teaspoon of salt and 1⁄2 teaspoon of pepper. Stir in the tomato sauce. Cook for 1 minute, then fold in the cooked eggplant. Spoon the lamb-eggplant mixture into the bottom of the prepared dish. Spread the mashed potato mixture over the lamb, covering it completely. For assembly: Top with crumbled feta or grated ParmigianoReggiano and bake for 45 minutes, until lightly browned.

Stir-fries in minutes if the freezer is stocked By Carol Mighton Haddix Chicago Tribune

A bag of frozen, peeled raw shrimp tucked away in the freezer provides almost instant weekday meals. Lately, I’ve been preparing the shrimp in a number of curries, from a Thai version (using another handy convenience product, curry paste) to this spicy curry from the south of India. Run the shrimp under cold water, or soak it just until thawed — about 10 minutes — then cook with seasonings or a sauce just until it turns pink, about 3 minutes.

SPICY SHRIMP CURRY Makes 6 servings. 1 lb frozen, peeled raw shrimp, thawed ½ tsp coarse salt ¼ tsp each: fresh ground black pepper, ground red pepper 2 TBS fresh lemon juice SAUCE: 3 TBS canola oil 20 curry leaves, optional 4 sm dried red chilies 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper 1 piece (3 inches long) ginger, peeled, minced 1 red onion, chopped 2 tsp coarse salt 2 cloves garlic, chopped 2 tsp ground coriander ½ tsp each: turmeric, curry powder 1 can (15 oz) each: diced tomatoes, coconut milk 1 C chopped cilantro Mix shrimp, salt, pepper, red pepper and lemon juice in a food storage bag; toss to coat. Refrigerate. For sauce, heat oil, curry leaves and chilies in a wok or large skillet over mediumhigh heat until sizzling, 1 minute. Add pepper, ginger, onion and salt; cook, stirring and sprinkling with a little water to keep from sticking if necessary, until onion is golden, 5 minutes. Add garlic, coriander, turmeric and curry powder; cook until fragrant, 1 minute. Reduce heat to medium; add tomatoes. Cook, stirring, 1 minute. Increase heat to mediumhigh; cook 5 minutes, stirring. Add coconut milk; heat to a boil. Add shrimp and its juices. Heat until shrimp are cooked through and pink, about 2 minutes. Stir in cilantro.

Pond Continued from F1 The McMillin Rays own several homes throughout the country, with their primary residence still being in San Diego. There, McMillin Ray owns and operates her decorating business, which includes selling designer pieces at retail stores in several locations in California. With her husband, they also own and manage several golf courses. McMillin Ray says she tries to get to Bend at least one week out of every month, and would eventually like to make this area her primary residence. Of all the homes she’s owned and lived in, this house has become the most special to her. “This place stole my heart and soul,” says McMillin Ray as she looks out over Mirror Pond and Drake Park from her picture window at the kitchen table. “I’m content here; it’s comfortable. Home should be a place you go to do things, or a place you go to do nothing at all. This just feels right.”

ABOVE: A cast-iron tub sits in the spacious second-floor bathroom. LEFT: The kitchen, with its red-granite-topped island, is one of McMillin Ray’s favorite rooms in the house. Many of the kitchen cabinets are the originals for the house, and McMillin Ray added reproduction antique glass handles.

Designing comfort McMillin Ray knows homes, having learned much from her late father, Corky McMillin, a successful real estate developer in San Diego who built 30,000 homes and 16 mixed-use, master-planned communities during the course of his career. “His philosophy was simple — everyone deserves to own a house,” says McMillin Ray, who started decorating her father’s model homes as a teenager. “My philosophy is everyone deserves to make a house a home.” McMillin Ray knows just how to do this, transforming shells of houses into glorious homes, and she wrote a book about it in 2009. The title of her book, “At Home with Laurie Ann — A Decorator’s Guide: Turn the Place You Live Into a Home You Love.” McMillin Ray honed her skills at the San Diego Design Institute, but before she could graduate, she found herself juggling so much business, she quit and never looked back. Her aesthetics can range from modern contemporary to shabby chic. But for her own Bend home, she wants a look that’s pure comfort, warm and inviting. From the outside, the lightgreen clapboard home with copper gables looks historic, yet unassuming. Step inside, and you immediately want to sit in the warm and cozy living room where the fireplace is blazing and a large bay window frames Mirror Pond and Drake Park like a winter painting. “We tore out the marble fire-

place and put in this fireplace with stones,” explains McMillin Ray. “I had these wood beams put in on the ceiling, and painted the ceiling red, to give it some warmth.” Like many decorators, McMillin Ray likes colors, bold colors. But she admits some of the colors that were in the house when she bought it weren’t part of her palette. “There was a lot of peach, purple, lavender and orange colors in here, and that’s just not me,” explained McMillin Ray. “But the kitchen and the main bathrooms had beautiful granites and marble, so I didn’t have to do anything there.” The bright white kitchen with much of its original cabinets is one of McMillin Ray’s favorite rooms. The red granite with streaks of white on the large island and along the sink area pops in the mostly white kitchen. For a spark of whimsy, McMillin Ray placed different colored reproduction antique glass pulls on the cupboards. “Mix and don’t match,” explains McMillin Ray, as she points to the pulls in various shapes and colors. “Everybody’s house says who they are; you shouldn’t copy a picture.

Things matter. Make each thing have meaning.”

Charming and funky From the kitchen, McMillin Ray opens the door to what is normally a mudroom, but because this is a historic home, this room is actually called the “milk room,” with white beadboard on the walls, a Dutch door heading out to the backyard and another door leading to the garage. McMillin Ray gets a kick out of opening another small secret door. “This is where the milkman would deliver the milk to the houses in the morning. This is one of my favorite things about this house,” explains McMillin Ray. When McMillin Ray closed on this house, she had it furnished and decorated within a week, and she’s proud to point out, she bought almost all of it locally. “You have to buy what you love — if you love it, it won’t be a mistake,” she says. “I think people overanalyze when they’re decorating; they shouldn’t be intimidated by a designer.” Though she’s considered a celebrity interior designer, McMillin Ray is refreshingly candid about being able to find

flea market bargains, or repurposing items. “I can take a $15 hutch, and if you give me some paint, a chain and a hammer, I can make it look like a $1,500 designer piece,” says McMillin Ray, who points to her window treatments in the kitchen and living room. “These window treatments were all made from remnants from Hancock Fabrics.” From the kitchen, McMillin Ray walks past the front entryway, down a corridor, and points out the powder room, in which she painted the wooden beadboard an eye-popping fuchsia color. The ceiling she painted yellow and the upper half of the wall is a blue. She says it’s funky, but it works. Past this intriguingly bright powder room we walk into a gorgeous guest bedroom, and McMillin Ray opens the door to the adjoining bathroom, where original and pristine diamondshaped tiles line an ample shower. Walking down the corridor again, McMillin Ray opens a door that leads downstairs to a huge finished basement, where she stores 10 beach cruisers and summer patio furniture. Along the basement wall area is her laundry room. From this vantage point, one can spy another set of secret doors that lead up to the backyard. But the vast basement doesn’t end here, as another ample bedroom is tucked around the corner. Even at the basement level, this bedroom has wonderful views of Mirror Pond, albeit at ground level. “I love this room, and these willow (twin) bed frames I found at Deja Vu, along with the desk and mirror here,” says McMillin Ray, who painted the

walls a pristine blue. “The comforters are from Target.”

Spacious rooms and views Ascending from the basement to the main floor, McMillin Ray takes us up another set of stairs. Along this front stairwell, she has placed eight large clocks in various styles along the wall. “I love clocks. I guess it’s my personality,” says McMillin Ray as she climbs up the staircase and takes us to her place of respite. The master bedroom is huge, and McMillin Ray points out the hidden, large walk-in closet. For the time period this house was built, this closet would be considered quite extravagant. Every bedroom in this home has extensive views out to Mirror Pond and Drake Park. The bedroom has a doublefaced fireplace, which allows a fire to glow facing the bedroom, and the master bathroom. McMillin Ray says the master bathroom was so spacious, she had to add an island. A deep bath, opposite the fireplace wall, is the perfect respite on a cold wintry day. Along another wall is the double shower, which is tiled with rough-hewn Tuscan mosaic tiles. Down from the master bedroom is another guest bedroom, which McMillin Ray calls her turquoise room, a color most favored by her daughter. A perfectly matched antique metal-topped table, found at the Bend Bungalow, adds the right touch. Next to this bedroom, a little farther down the hall, is an original 1930s bathroom complete with a deep tub and white marble flooring. Another bedroom down the hall is also perfectly decorated,

and the final bedroom at the end of the house, which is positioned over the garage, is a smaller room that was originally designed as a maid’s quarters. A small, discreet staircase from the maid’s room leads directly down to the garage, as a separate entrance. Looking down from a window in what she calls her son’s room, out toward the backyard with its tall ponderosa pines, McMillin Ray sighs and explains why she loves this home: “What I love about this home is that it feels like a cottage tucked away in the forest, a place where you can get away, but it’s still close to everything, I can take a beautiful walk and I’m right in downtown.” With 10 people staying in the house during the holidays, McMillin Ray says the house was getting good use, and she takes us up another flight of stairs to a finished attic, where she has decorated it into an extra-large bedroom suite, complete with a television lounging area. She has dubbed this attic suite “the man cave.” On this visit, the McMillin Rays had their three grown children visiting them, along with their significant others, plus a nephew and four dogs. The house was full of bustle and noise, and this is just the way the McMillin Rays like it, their family enjoying a home that is comfortable, well designed, well lived in and, most of all, well loved. “I think you have to enjoy the ride. God put us here for a reason, and we all get increasingly busy. We forget that we need to just enjoy places like Bend. I love to just look at this window, and watch the geese and see the snow falling.” Penny Nakamura can be reached at halpen1@aol.com.

COVER STORY

John Hancock constructed a wall at the entrance of his home from rocks collected off his property.

Wall Continued from F1 At some point, something will have to be done with that pile of rocks that was removed when the lawn was put in. Is building a stone wall out of those rocks a viable do-it-yourself project? Surprisingly, if the weather cooperates, it is possible to start a dry-stack stone wall now, says Brian Salazar of Empire Stone Co. in Bend. “You need to get the foundation in while the ground is thawed,” he recommends. “But once that foundation is established, you can stack rocks whenever you want to.” A dry-stack wall, as the name implies, doesn’t use mortar or a binding agent. The stones are placed and stacked in an overlapping pattern, which holds the form together. Such a wall can be built virtually anywhere, and the structure can be tall and elaborate or relatively simple. There is no mortar to crack and deteriorate, and the only limitations are your skill, quantity of materials

and imagination. And there is an additional advantage: When the wall is completed, if you decide you don’t like it or want to move the structure somewhere else, it can be disassembled. Dry-stack stone walls are as old as agriculture, because rocks had to be removed from fields to allow cultivation. At some point, an ingenious prehistoric farmer figured out that those stones could be stacked up to take less space, and this would also create structures to confine domestic animals and serve as boundary markers. Today, locals find that the slabs of basalt lava rock, common to the Central Oregon area, can make stunning walls. There doesn’t seem to be a lack of raw materials, so all you need are the rocks, a location, patience and time. For beginner wall builders, Salazar recommends an 18-inch-tall wall as a good goal. Much higher than that probably requires more skill than the average homeowner has. Here are some stone wall constructions tips from Salazar.

Hancock also built a wall around an open-air seating area to listen to live music in his backyard. “You need a vision of what you want the wall to look like. Before you start, look around and find a wall you like,” he advises. “Then decide why you like it, and if you could adapt some of those design features into your garden wall.” The foundation should be started when the ground is not frozen, Salazar recommends. Dig a trench where the wall will go, he said, then lay down at least a 6inch-deep layer of three-quarter

minus (a moderately fine grade of crushed rock) in the trench. “You’ll need to tamp the gravel down well,” he advises. “Make sure the foundation is level and solid, or you’ll have problems later if the foundation shifts when the wall gets higher.” The shape of the rocks will help determine the final outcome, Salazar said. Rocks are heavy, especially when you’ll be lifting a lot of them, he added, and you need to decide what weight is

comfortable to work with. Generally, each rock will be moved several times in the building process, he said, and it is important to consider the handling before starting. “You need fairly consistent shapes,” he said. “There should be at least two flat sides for ease of stacking, and you may have to shape the width.” The wall shouldn’t be completely straight vertically, he added, because that may eventu-

ally cause the wall to shift or the rocks to move. “Start out wider at the bottom, then gradually taper it up to the top,” he recommends. The dry-stack wall technique works well for retainers and as boundaries for flowerbeds, he said, and can be adapted into other landscape features.

Bringing gardens to life with detailed topiaries By Kathy Van Mullekom

A finished topiary in the shape of a poodle is one of many creations by Teresa Bennett, owner of Gardens and Accessories by Teresa in York County, Va.

Daily Press (Newport News, Va.)

NEWPORT NEWS, Va. — Two standard poodles keep Teresa Bennett company in her garden in Yorktown, Va. Black Jack and Red Baron romp while she weeds and follow her around while she walks in her yard. Now, the poodles and Bennett enjoy even more companionship in the yard — a cocker spaniel with a fetching face, or maybe a terrier with adorable eyes. These dogs, however, don’t roam or run. Fashioned from wire frames, moss and small plants, they stand perfectly still, adding an artistic touch to the landscape. A master gardener since 2001, Bennett, 56, recently launched a new business, Gardens & Accessories by Teresa. Topiaries created with wire frames and plants are the prime focus of that venture. A gardener all her life, Bennett is always doing something with her love for nature. For seven years, she taught an after-school junior master gardener club at a nearby elementary school and continues to promote environmental education to students throughout York County, Va. “I grew up around gardening, particularly grandparents that farmed, and my grandmother grew beautiful flowers and roses,” she says. “After growing houseplants and containers for years, when we moved to Seaford 15 years ago, I finally had space to really indulge my interest in gardening.” Bennett’s interest in topiaries peaked while she worked part time at the former Flower Pot garden center near her home. “When the owners decided to close the business, I looked at the topiaries and decided they were just too unique to let go,” she says. “I knew there would be interest in the 33 different dog breeds at dog shows, but I need other outlets as well.” Growing many of the sedums and other plants she needs for the topiaries, Bennett qualified for the “Virginia Grown” designation. She sells the topiaries at farmers markets and at a garden center near her home. In spring, she plans to have topiary parties for people to choose frames, and

Adrin Snider Daily Press (Newport News, Va.)

stuff and plant them under her guidance. “I picked one of the hottest days of the summer for my first venture into farmers markets, and, despite the heat, I loved the atmosphere, talking to people, explaining how the topiaries are made and the plants I use in them,” she says. The topiary frames are welded metal, finished with a black powder coating to resist the elements. “The frames alone are beautiful, unlike chicken wire that is flimsy and subject to rust, even when painted,” says Bennett. “The other details come from the plants. I can change the look of the topiary by the plants I use. Ivy is an option, but by using a variety of plants, I create both color and texture, and really bring the topiary to life.” The frames generally come in two sections, making it possible to stuff them with sphagnum moss. To fill each frame, Bennett dampens moss in a container of water, and works with one handful at a time. She wrings out any excess water and first stuffs all small spaces in the topiary — ears, legs or tails, using a screwdriver or wooden garden stake to pack the moss in as tightly as possible. After the small spaces are stuffed, she moves to larger sections, continuing to work with one handful of moss at a time, and again packing as tightly as possible. When the frame sections are filled, they are attached with zip ties. “This is the messy part of the process and uses more moss than

you would expect,” she says. Then, she begins the fun, creative part — selecting plants that resemble the fur, feathers or skin

of the topiary creature. Typically, she uses low-growing perennial groundcovers that are at least semi-evergreen in Hampton Roads. “I like hens-and-chicks to create a turtle shell, or as a collar on a large dog,” she says. “Dwarf mondo is great as a topknot on a poodle frame. Irish moss and wooly thyme make a great short fur. Acornus works as feathers on a duck.” Sedums, however, are the main group of plants she uses on the topiaries. Sedums tolerate drought, often root where they touch, cover an area quickly and love the sun. They are ideal groundcovers for hot, dry spots. “After growing many different sedums in my own backyard, I know they tolerate a bit of neglect,” says Bennett.

“I got really excited when I found a pink-edged sedum to plant in a flamingo topiary.” After Bennett selects the plants for a specific topiary, she divides them into small sections and rises off as much soil as possible. Using her fingers or a wooden stake, she makes an indentation in the moss, then “shoe horns” the roots of a small plant division into the space. She pushes the moss around the roots to hold the plant in place. “The plants grow in the moss, no soil required,” she says. She continues this process until plants cover one-fourth of the moss. “Half the fun is watching the plant grow and fill in,” she says. “But, if someone requests a fuller topiary, I place a plant about every three to four inches.” Bennett can create more than

H I G H

130 different topiaries, including dogs, frogs, turtles, cats, rabbits, giraffes, seahorses, dinosaurs — even a life-size golfer. Prices start at $40 for a small frog or turtle; midsized topiaries run $70-$125; and larger ones like a Labrador retriever are more than $300. Ongoing care is fairly simple. The topiaries stay outside yearround. In summer, they require watering about every other day; in winter, water is needed maybe once a week. To water one, you thoroughly wet the moss. A monthly feeding with a liquid fertilizer during summer months speeds growth. Turning the frame from time to time helps the plants develop evenly. Scissors can be used to trim the plants to maintain the frame’s shape. “It’s living art that will last you many years,” she says.

Fresh sardines are best under the broiler By Mark Bittman New York Times News Service

For years, the only kind of sardines available to the average American were packed in oil, water or tomato sauce, sold in little rectangular cans, first with keys and later with pop-tops. But because they’re plentiful and not endangered as a species (and full of healthful omega-3 fatty acids), fresh sardines are enjoying something of a renaissance. It helps that they’re delicious and inexpensive. You’re likely to see them on the menus of fancy restaurants, usually as appetizers and usually “grilled.” I use quotation marks because what restaurants advertise as grilled sardines are usually broiled, for two reasons. One is that few restaurants are equipped to do

real grilling. The other is that it’s extremely difficult to grill a sardine. Their flesh is so fragile they fall apart. (Wrapping them in grape leaves or paperthin prosciutto slices is an option, but that process is a pain and decidedly unnecessary.) Fortunately, broiling creates the same crisp skin and smoky flavor as grilling, with far less fuss. And it makes sardines easy to do, restaurant-style, in a home kitchen. Most sardines are sold gutted, but if yours aren’t, cut a slit along the bottom of the sardine from the throat to the rear vent, then pull out the innards and rinse the inside of the fish. You’re left with a convenient pocket that can be stuffed with just about anything. In the interest of simplicity and flavor, I’ve chosen lemon and thyme.

BROILED SARDINES WITH LEMON AND THYME Makes 4 servings. 1 lemon, thinly sliced, plus lemon wedges for serving 12 or more fresh thyme sprigs, plus chopped fresh thyme for garnish

11⁄2 pounds sardines (8 to 12 large), gutted, with heads on Salt and black pepper 3 TBS extra-virgin olive oil

Heat the broiler until hot. Move the oven rack as close to the heat source as possible (2 to 4 inches away). Heat a sturdy pan for about 5 minutes. Wrap a lemon slice around each thyme sprig and stuff inside the sardines; sprinkle with salt and pepper. When the pan is hot, remove it from the oven and pour in half of the olive oil, then put the sardines in the pan and drizzle with the remaining oil. Broil for 4 to 5 minutes, then check the sardines; they’re ready when they’re opaque, the tip of a knife flakes the thickest part easily, and the outside is nicely browned. To serve, carefully remove the sardines with a spatula, sprinkle with more herbs if you like, and pour the pan juices over all. Serve with lemon wedges.

4 seasons of fresh flowers The tulipiere was originally designed to hold a single stem in each spout, but it can also accommodate small bunches of slender blooms. This gives a decorator the opportunity to mix and match.

MARTHA STEWART I grow a lot of flowers, all year long, in three different gardens in three locations. My objective is to have beauty to look at wherever I am, but most important, to have flowers and foliage to cut for seasonal arrangements for my homes. Over the years, I have learned what grows best, what blooms when, and which flowers “cut” well and last longest. My personal style of flower arranging has evolved and changed quite a bit. Now I love to incorporate leaves, grasses and seedpods into arrangements, whereas I once considered anything green just filler. Whatever the time of year, even in the cooler months, there is almost always something to inspire a beautiful arrangement. The following combinations perfectly exemplify the four seasons: winter, spring, summer and fall.

Winter Amaryllis, my Christmas flower, is a bright spot of the season. Glistening white, vivid pink or pale green, miniature or double-flowered, striped or picotee — there are new varieties to experiment with every year. Soft whites: I grow a lot of amaryllis in my greenhouse. Because it is difficult to display the flowers with the bulbs, I often cut the flower stalks and use them in bowls (sometimes I fill out the arrangements with purchased blooms). When combined with Southern magnolia leaves, these burgundy-centered, creamwhite flowers make a striking arrangement.

Spring This is my favorite season for homegrown flowers on my farm in Bedford. Small bulbs bloom first, followed by tulips, hyacinths, bleeding hearts and flowering shrubs. Bright and early: A European tulipiere was designed to display

one tulip in each “finger.” I love to mix small fringed tulips with early viburnum and muscari in this vessel. Standing tall: A slender Juliska glass vase is the perfect container for long-stemmed Darwin tulips. I cut the stems as long as the vase and line them up as straight as possible. Clearly beautiful: I have a penchant for clear-glass containers, which can show off a wonderful mix of tulips, white bleeding hearts and the wavy leaves of bird’s-nest fern.

almost the same colors. Coming up roses: Arranging roses is a glorious task, especially when they are homegrown and scented. David Austin roses make a beautiful display combined with “Limelight” licorice plant, tiny lady’s mantle, puffy canary grass and fuzzy, fragrant geranium leaves. Surprising pick: Few of us think to use clematis as cut flowers, but they are excellent as such. Mixed with hosta leaves, irises and love-in-a-mist seed heads, the flowers are superb.

fect vessel for a stunning arrangement of three unusual fall blooms: striped dahlias in orange and white, papery Chinese lanterns stripped of all leaves and dill gone to yellow flower heads. Dark, dramatic: I love Japanese baskets, and the rich mahogany-reddish shade of an old container looks fabulous with a dusky arrangement of purple hazel leaves, sprays of broom corn, reddish ornamental grass, blackish dahlias and purple artichokes.

Summer

Fall

This is when the garden explodes into myriad shapes and colors. Peonies, irises, roses, lilies, delphiniums, astilbes and annuals can be cut by the dozens. Natural match: A Japanese bowl was given to me many years ago. When I received it, I had never seen a yellow, peach or mauve tree peony, but obviously the painter of the bowl had. Finally my tree peonies have matured and now provide blooms of

This is a great time for flower arrangers because the garden is so generous in its bounty. The colors in the garden become deeper and more vibrant. When I’m looking for flowers, I can find many other subtle things that will result in original displays. Flower arranging can actually become more inspired.
