Will Bend’s next mayor be elected?

RESCUE AT MT. BACHELOR

How a ticket saved a life

City officials ponder the position, currently appointed by councilors

By Nick Grube The Bulletin

When outgoing Bend City Councilor Oran Teater gives his departing speech tonight at the Municipal Courthouse, he says he’ll impart one last tidbit of advice to his colleagues: make the mayor an elected position.

If You Go This not only will allow What: Bend City Bend residents to select the Council meeting person they want to be the When: 7 tonight face of their community Where: Bend for the next four years, he Municipal Court, said, but also will add some 555 N.E. 15th St. continuity to a position that sees turnover every other year after an election.

It won’t be the first time Teater, who decided not to run for re-election in November, has asked for such a change. In 2005, when he was mayor and an outgoing council member he made the same suggestion, to no avail.

mom said.

Jake Denham, 14, of Portland, had received new skis for Christmas, and his mother had planned a trip to Mt. Bachelor. Jake had tried snowboarding for three or four years, she said, but he had found it more difficult than skiing. He wanted to ski again.

The trip proved to be much more of an adventure than either of them had expected. A few hours after his return to skis, Jake went missing for several hours. A search-andrescue team found him after midnight, right on time for his mother’s birthday. News outlets around the world picked up the story, taking note of how Jake had learned survival skills from reality-television shows such as Discovery Channel’s “Man vs. Wild.”

How Mt. Bachelor staffers determined Jake’s whereabouts on the mountain, and thereby sped up his rescue in subzero temperatures, is a whole other story, one that has not previously been documented and that raises the value of the technology used to track skiers and snowboarders there. As it turns out, an 18-digit number on a paper ticket and a paper receipt has the power to save a life.

The giant bullfrog is like Kermit on steroids.

When it lunges — and South African frog expert Vincent Carruthers has seen it attack horses — it’s a fearsome sight, squinting and baring the two fanglike front teeth in its gaping, shovel-like jaw.

Right now one giant bullfrog, slightly smaller than a dinner plate, is busily trying to procreate with a female, perhaps a tenth his size. But before the deed can be consummated, another male swaggers up and launches himself in toothy-jawed attack.

Correction In a story headlined “Governor wants contract reviewed,” which appeared Thursday, Dec. 30, on Page A1, the name of the firm that originally lost out on a state Department of Energy stimulus contract to a Seattle company R.W. Beck was inaccurately reported based on inaccurate information that had appeared in another newspaper.

The company that actually lost out on the contract was TEEM, or Toward Energy Efficient Municipalities. An editorial, “Clear the air with energy investigation,” which appeared Monday, Jan. 3, on Page C4, based on the article in The Bulletin, made the same error.

Finally, Klamath River has a water plan

By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press

GRANTS PASS — The Klamath River — which has seen its salmon runs gradually decline for a century — now has a formal plan for restoring the purity of its waters.

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency announced Tuesday it has approved California’s water quality improvement plan for the Klamath, which runs 255 miles from the city of Klamath Falls in southern Oregon to the Pacific Ocean on the north coast of California.

Oregon’s plan setting total maximum daily loads, or TMDLs, for various water quality factors, is expected to be approved next month.

“There have been years and years of fighting water wars around the Klamath,” Jared Blumenfeld, southwest regional administrator for the EPA, said from San Francisco. “Hopefully, for the first time, I think, many parties around the table have reached agreement on what needs to be done on how we get to a place where a healthy river ecosystem is prioritized.

“This will be looked back on as an important milestone in getting both agreement and a degree of accountability about the clear path forward.”

The challenge now is implementing the plan at a time when the state budget is tight, said Glen Spain of the Pacific Coast Federation of Fishermen’s Associations.

The Klamath water quality plan comes on top of landmark agreements to remove

Joe Cavaretta / The Associated Press

A dead adult salmon lies on the banks of the Klamath River. Tens of thousands of salmon have died because of chronic water quality problems. four hydroelectric dams that block salmon from hundreds of miles of habitat, restore Klamath Basin ecosystems, and assure water for farmers on a federal irrigation project.

The U.S. Interior secretary is due to decide by March 2012 whether to go ahead with those plans.

“Dam removal alone will not solve the fishery problem,” Catherine Kuhlman,

executive officer of the North Coast Regional Water Quality Control Board, said from Santa Rosa, Calif. “We have to clean up the water in order to restore the fishery.

To do that, we’ve got to use some pretty untraditional approaches.”

The plan calls for creation of one of the biggest water pollution credit exchanges in the country to pull money from sources of problems, such as hydroelectric dams

owned by the utility PacifiCorp, and combine it with state and federal funds for spending on top-priority improvement projects, she said. Projects would include constructing wetlands to filter the water.

The list of projects has yet to be developed.

With most of the water quality problems stemming from the upper basin, where the biggest human population and most intensive farming occur, the bulk of the improvements have to be done there, Kuhlman added.

The plan also targets cold water refuges that salmon depend on to escape warm stretches of river, and protects them from suction dredge mining and construction of levees and bridges.

The Klamath’s waters have long been impaired by warm temperatures, low oxygen levels, toxic algae and erosion that are exacerbated by dams, logging, roads, and agricultural runoff.

Spain’s organization and other conservation groups sued the EPA to force California to develop water quality standards for 17 salmon rivers from Mendocino, Calif., to the Oregon border, and a consent decree was signed in 1997. The Klamath plan was the last of them.

Water quality problems came to a head in 2002, when tens of thousands of adult salmon died in the lower Klamath from diseases spread by low and warm water conditions during a drought. In recent years, California has posted summer health warnings along the river due for toxic algae.

“If I can get everybody to play nice in the rest of the Gulf, I’ll be able to get my job done,” said John Hankinson Jr., the federal government’s point man to clean up the Gulf of Mexico.

Fixing Gulf’s woes will require years of work, billions of dollars

By Kevin Spear The Orlando Sentinel

ORLANDO, Fla. — John Hankinson Jr. is now the federal government’s point man for one of the nation’s most pressing challenges: cleaning up the Gulf of Mexico in the aftermath of the largest offshore oil spill in U.S. history.

In December, Hankinson stood by the water in Mississippi, near the midpoint of the 1,600-mile-long arc that the Gulf’s shoreline forms between the Florida Keys and the TexasMexico border. He took in what he could of an ecosystem regarded as a treasure but treated like a toilet — marred by obliterated sea-grass beds, vanquished oyster reefs, debilitated marshes and algae-blighted waters.

And those are just some of the ailments that predate the oil spill.

About 120 miles south of where Hankinson was standing that day, a well drilled in the Gulf floor for the British oil company BP PLC had erupted in late April, destroying a drilling rig called the Deepwater Horizon, killing 11 workers and spewing nearly 5 million barrels of oil during 87 days. Scientists expect it will take years to understand all of the harm caused by the offshore spill, and even longer to fix it.

Since his appointment in October, it has been Hankinson’s job to develop a federal strategy for the Gulf, using fines and damages paid by BP, that will repair the damage from the oil spill and fix the longer-term problems caused by decades of pollution, coastal development and dredging.

“This will probably kill me,” Hankinson said of the challenge, which others describe as incomprehensibly large and complex, because it involves everything from changing how Iowa farmers drain their fields into the Mississippi River to digging tar balls out of once-pristine beaches along the Florida Panhandle.

America’s playground, and catcher’s mitt Disaster and opportunity are constant companions in the Gulf of Mexico, the world’s ninth-largest sea.

It is a catcher’s mitt for hurricanes such as Ivan, which pummeled Pensacola in 2004, and Katrina, which killed hundreds of New Orleans residents in 2005. It collects treated sewage and stormwater, and drains much of the nation’s watersheds between the Rocky and Appalachian mountains.

Nearly 35 million Americans live within 100 miles of the Gulf, whose coast is lined with refineries, power and chemical plants, casinos and shipping ports.

It satisfies a quarter of the nation’s daily appetite for petroleum.

It also is among the nation’s most popular playgrounds and fishing spots; generates 73 percent of the shrimp and 67 percent of the oysters harvested in the U.S.; and sustains a rich variety of wildlife, including the brown pelican, bottlenose dolphin, loggerhead turtle, whale shark and bluefin tuna.

“America needs the Gulf to be clean,” U.S. Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus wrote in September in a spill report sent to President Barack Obama.

Environmental veteran During the past three decades, Hankinson has been an environmental activist, a state water manager and a regional director for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency.

Now, as executive director of the new Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Task Force, Hankinson will need all of the experience gained from his struggles with those earlier projects as he works to compile by Oct. 4 of next year a list of environmental goals for the Gulf of Mexico and a timeline for achieving them.

He also expects to have billions of dollars in his corner, as the government moves against BP financially on two fronts.

The first involves a Natural Resource Damage Assessment that will calculate how much to bill BP for repairing the environmental damage caused by the spilled oil and the chemical dispersants used to chop the crude into smaller droplets.

Federal agencies and five states have deployed hundreds of researchers to take stock of everything spill-related, from the more easily found problems, such as oil buried in beach sand, to the lessobvious losses, such as reduced populations of sea turtles.

The second source of money for Hankinson’s Gulf restoration work is the fine pending against BP for violating the federal Clean Water Act. Based on the 200 million gallons of crude that gushed from the broken well, the fine could total as much as $21 billion, if the company and its drilling partners are found to be highly negligent.

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration said this week it will allow 13 companies to resume deepwater drilling without any additional environmental scrutiny, just months after saying it would require strict reviews for new drilling in the wake of the BP oil spill.

The government said it was not breaking its promise to require environmental reviews because the 13 companies — which include Chevron USA Inc. and Shell Offshore Inc. — had already started drilling the wells without detailed environmental studies.

Drilling was suspended last year when the administration imposed a months-long moratorium following the BP spill. The ban was lifted in October, but drilling has not yet resumed in waters deeper than 500 feet in the Gulf of Mexico.

U.S. officials said the 13 companies must comply with new policies and rules before resuming activity at 16 Gulf of Mexico wells. All but three are exploratory wells — the same type BP was drilling when the blowout of the Deepwater Horizon rig occurred. The April 20 explosion killed 11 workers and set off the worst offshore oil spill in U.S. history.

“For those companies that were in the midst of operations at the time of the deepwater suspensions (last spring), today’s notification is a significant step toward resuming their permitted activity,” said Michael Bromwich, director of the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement.

The decision is a victory for the drilling companies, which in the past had routinely won broad waivers from rules requiring detailed environmental studies. After the BP disaster, the Obama administration

pledged it would require companies to complete environmental reviews before being allowed to drill for oil.

The administration has been under heavy pressure from the oil industry, Gulf state leaders and congressional Republicans to speed up drilling in the Gulf of Mexico, which has come to a near halt since the moratorium on deepwater drilling was imposed last spring.

The delay is hurting big oil companies such as Chevron Corp. and Royal Dutch Shell PLC, which have billions of dollars in investments tied up in Gulf projects that are on hold.

Smaller operators such as ATP Oil & Gas Corp., Murphy Exploration & Production Co.-USA, and Noble Energy Inc., also have been affected.

A federal report said the moratorium probably caused a temporary loss of 8,000 to 12,000 jobs in the Gulf region.

Bromwich and other officials stressed that the policy announced Monday was not a reversal of its previous plans not to grant waivers known as categorical exclusions for deepwater projects. Instead officials characterized the action as a sort of grandfather clause that applies only to companies that had already begun drilling before the BP blowout.

In August, Bromwich instructed his staff not to grant categorical exclusions for drilling plans that involve use of a blowout preventer similar to the one that failed to stop the BP spill. But the August directive did not specify that any companies would be exempted under a grandfather provision.

“This decision was based on our ongoing review of environmental analyses in the Gulf and was in no way impacted by a singular company,” said Melissa Schwartz, a spokeswoman for Bromwich.

T S Prosecutors say doctor in Jackson case caused death

By Jennifer Medina New York Times News Service

LOS ANGELES — Prosecutors began laying out the case that they say will show that the personal private doctor for pop star Michael Jackson caused his 2009 death by giving him a powerful anesthetic meant only for surgery and not telling the emergency doctors who eventually arrived that he had done so.

Beyond that, they said in a preliminary hearing in criminal court Tuesday, Dr. Conrad Murray failed to call 911 quickly enough and performed inadequate CPR, using just one hand while Jackson was lying on a soft bed rather than a hard surface.

The lead prosecutor, Deputy District Attorney David Walgren, said he would call dozens of witnesses during the next several days to show that there was more than enough evidence that Murray should stand trial for involuntary manslaughter in connection with Jackson’s death June 25, 2009. If convicted, Murray could face up to four years in prison.

In his opening statement, Walgren said that Jackson was dead in his home before an ambulance arrived that afternoon.

“Michael Jackson was preparing for one of the most important tours of his life,” Walgren said in his opening statement. “He had begun serious rehearsals, and this was going to be a major world event, not only in the eyes of the public but also in the eyes of Michael Jackson.”

Several of Jackson’s family members, including his mother, Katherine, and his sister LaToya, crowded into the courtroom along with dozens of fans who had lined up early to enter a lottery for the few public spots.

Governor’s assassination Navy captain is removed sends Pakistan into chaos over role in coarse videos

By Elisabeth Bumiller

New York Times News Service

By Saeed Shah and Jonathan S. Landay McClatchy Tribune News Service

ISLAMABAD — The top official of Pakistan’s most populous province, an outspoken critic of religious extremism, was assassinated Tuesday in Islamabad by one of his own police bodyguards, plunging the country vital to the U.S. fight against terrorism deeper into political turmoil.

Punjab Governor Salman Taseer, who’s been battling Islamists after he denounced a law against blasphemy, was killed on a road in the center of the Pakistani capital.

His slaying came as the ruling coalition led by the secular Pakistan Peoples Party, the PPP, was in danger of collapse after losing its parliamentary majority amid a growing economic crisis, including a sudden rise in fuel prices and extensive power shortages.

The turbulence couldn’t come at a worse time for the Obama administration, diverting Pakistani political and military leaders from what Washington had hoped would be an intensified drive to shutter Afghan insurgent strongholds and al-Qaida-allied bases on Pakistan’s side of the rugged border with Afghanistan.

Given the depth of antiAmerican sentiments in Pakistan, however, there is little the U.S. can do, several analysts said.

“It’s a situation where anything that we might do would be counterproductive,” said Marvin Weinbaum, a former State Department intelligence analyst with the Middle East Institute in Washington.

Taseer, 66, was the most senior Pakistani politician murdered since former Prime

B.K.Bangash / The Associated Press

Supporters of Pakistan Peoples Party mourn the death of Punjab’s governor, Salman Taseer, who was shot dead by one of his guards, outside a hospital in Islamabad, Pakistan, on Tuesday. The killing was the most high-profile assassination in Pakistan since the slaying of former Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto in December 2007.

Minister Benazir Bhutto in December 2007. The governor, the president’s representative in a province, is a high-profile but largely ceremonial position.

He was leaving a cafe in an upscale market in central Islamabad at around 4 p.m. when he was felled in a hail of bullets, officials and witnesses said.

Ali Khan, a 24-year-old student who was dining close to the scene, told McClatchy Newspapers that he heard several bursts of gunfire. When he got to the road, he saw two uniformed men lying on the ground, one being restrained by other police officers and the other apparently injured.

Interior Minister Rehman Malik identified Taseer’s killer as Mumtaz Hussain Qadri, a 26year-old police commando from a suburb of Islamabad who served as one of Taseer’s bodyguards as a member of the Elite Force, a provincial anti-terrorist unit.

Qadri put down his weapon and surrendered after the shooting, Malik told reporters.

Qadri said he killed Taseer, a charismatic senior PPP member who was close to President Asif Ali Zardari, Bhutto’s husband, because of Taseer’s calls for changes to a law that makes blasphemy a crime punishable by death.

Taseer “wanted to bring a revolution in Pakistan that would allow people to live their lives as they wished,” Faisal Raza Abidi, a PPP member of the upper house of Parliament, said outside the hospital where Taseer’s body was brought. “This bloodshed will strengthen us. We are all ready to die.”

But Weinbaum said he thought that Taseer’s assassination would dissuade other politicians from speaking out against the law.

Taseer “had shown enormous courage and in that sense stood out alone here,” Weinbaum said.

“The party (PPP) was not with him. If this could only encourage others. But unfortunately, it will probably have the opposite effect, and those who should stand up will stay down.”

WASHINGTON — The U.S. Navy removed the commanding officer of the aircraft carrier Enterprise on Tuesday, citing his “profound lack of good judgment” for creating and starring in a series of coarse and sexually explicit on-board videos several years ago that were meant as entertainment for the ship’s crew.

The officer, Capt. Owen Honors, was permanently relieved of his duties some two weeks before the Enterprise, the world’s first nuclear-powered carrier, is due to leave its home port in Norfolk, Va., to support combat missions in Afghanistan.

Adm. John C. Harvey Jr., the commander of the U.S. Fleet Forces Command in Norfolk, said in a statement that after viewing the videos, he had lost confidence in the captain’s ability to lead. Honors’ lack of judgment and professionalism, the admiral said, “calls into question his character and completely undermines his credibility to continue to serve effectively in command.”

The videos include scenes of simulated masturbation, simulated eating of feces, a simulated rectal exam, anti-gay slurs and a pair of men and a pair of women showering together.

They were produced by Honors and shown to sailors and Marines aboard the Enterprise, which has a crew of some 6,000, in 2006 and 2007.

The videos, which also include a scene that suggests an officer is engaged in sex in his stateroom with a donkey, were first disclosed by a Norfolk newspaper, The Virginian-Pilot.

Capt. Dee Mewbourne, the chief of staff of Navy Cyber Forces and a former commander of the aircraft carrier Dwight D. Eisenhower, was permanently assigned as the commanding officer of the Enterprise. Honors has been reassigned to an administrative position at Fleet Forces Command in Norfolk.

In Australia, economic toll rises with water

By Aubrey Belford New York Times News Service

MELBOURNE, Australia — Churning floodwaters continued to rise across a vast stretch of northeastern Australia on Tuesday as the authorities worked to grapple with the multibilliondollar economic toll from record inundations that have killed at least nine people.

Rain predicted for today is expected to worsen flooding that has struck the state of Queensland, said Jimmy Stuart, a senior hydrologist at the state branch of the Bureau of Meteorology. At least 200,000 people have been affected since heavy rains and floods in late December struck the state, where flooding is a seasonal regularity.

Queensland’s government is expected to hold an emergency Cabinet meeting today to develop a strategy to deal with the cost of the disaster to its agricultural and mining sectors, said Kimberley Gardiner, a spokeswoman for the state premier, Anna Bligh. Prime Minister Julia Gillard has pledged assistance to flood victims.

“To be frank, there aren’t many industries that haven’t been affected in Queensland,” Bligh’s spokeswoman said. State authorities and private aircraft had been carrying out airdrops of feed to livestock stranded in flooded fields, she said.

Of particular concern is damage to fruit crops and cotton, which supply both the domestic and export market, and

Queensland’s production of coking coal, which is used in the production of steel. Queensland produces about one-third of the world’s supply of the commodity.

Flooded mines and transport disruptions, which have left export stocks dwindling at the port of Gladstone, mean the coal industry could take months to recover, pushing up global prices, the spokeswoman said.

Floodwaters have still not reached expected peaks in some areas, including Rockhampton, where water more than 30 feet high in some places has cut off all but one road out of town and the military has been called in to help with supplies, said Alistair Dawson, acting assistant commissioner of the Queensland police.

Ivory Coast’s Gbagbo softens position slightly

Sudan president promises to accept vote on secession

By Adam Nossiter

By Alan Boswell

New York Times News Service

McClatchy Newspapers

ABIDJAN, Ivory Coast — The president who refuses to relinquish power here after losing an election has agreed to lift the blockade on his winning rival’s headquarters, West Africa’s political-economic alliance announced Tuesday.

The move by the president, Laurent Gbagbo, appeared to represent a slight softening of his stance after weeks of diplomatic pressure from the alliance and others, though there were still no signs Gbagbo was budging from the presidential palace here.

Gbagbo “pledged to immediately lift the blockade around Hotel Du Golf, the temporary headquarters of Alassane Ouattara, the president-elect,” the West African alliance, known as ECOWAS, said in a statement Tuesday in Abuja, the Nigerian capital. The announcement followed a diplomatic mission here

by ECOWAS leaders that otherwise ended in failure, as the group’s goal — dislodging Gbagbo — appeared distant.

KHARTOUM, Sudan — Sudan’s leader flew to the nation’s south on Tuesday as the region prepares to vote on secession and pledged to respect a division of the country into two new states if that’s the choice of the people.

The rare visit by President Omar al Bashir came just five days before what’s expected to be an overwhelming vote for separation, fueled by mistrust and resentment after decades of conflict between the two sides.

Bashir made clear that he prefers a united Sudan, but he reaffirmed a vow to recognize a new southern nation if that’s the outcome at the polls.

“Whether unity or secession, people should respect it (the results) in good spirit,” said Bashir in a speech to southern leaders in new statehouse building in the fledgling southern capital of Juba.

“We agreed that we would keep security and stability,” said the Sudanese president

of his meeting with southern leader Salva Kiir.

Sen. John Kerry, D-Mass., the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said he’s “very encouraged” by Bashir’s “constructive” remarks but indicated wariness that Bashir, who’s been indicted for crimes against humanity by the International Criminal Court, would follow through.

Bashir’s statement Tuesday and in recent days “are all indicators that this is moving in the right direction, at least today,” Kerry told McClatchy in Khartoum.

Kerry, who’s planning to stay in the country through the referendum, also cautioned the government and southern Sudanese leaders not to try to use force to affect the outcome of the referendum.

“Both sides have to live up to certain standards. There can’t be support for proxy militias. There can’t be underhanded mischief, he said.

This was the Bashir’s first trip to the south since national elections in April.

Scalia’s speech to House members raises eyebrows

By James Oliphant and David G. Savage Tribune Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — The decision by Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia to accept an invitation from Rep. Michele Bachmann, R-Minn., the founder of the House’s Tea Party Caucus, to speak to incoming House members about the Constitution is drawing fire from some who worry the court is injecting itself into partisan politics.

The meeting “suggests an alliance between the conservative members of the court and the conservative members of Congress,” said Jonathan Turley, a law professor at George Washington University, who said Scalia had shown “exceedingly poor judgment.”

He said the association of Scalia, an outspoken conservative, with the bombastic Bachmann, who once accused then-Sen. Barack Obama of being “anti-American,” could contribute to the high court

becoming overly politicized.

But Bachmann’s office said that Democrats and Republicans alike are welcome. And a sitting Supreme Court justice conferring with the legislative branch is not unprecedented, since several justices have met in off-the-record sessions with the bipartisan House Caucus on the Judicial Branch.

Repealing the massive health care overhaul is the No. 1 issue for the new GOP-controlled House, with a repeal vote scheduled for next week. But legal challenges to that law are also working their way up through the federal courts and could reach the Supreme Court as early as next term, with Scalia in position to help decide whether it survives.

“I don’t think it is appropriate for justices to meet with members of Congress, particularly in this highly partisan environment,” said Richard Painter, a law professor at the University of Minnesota who served as a chief ethics officer in the George W. Bush administration.

Jake Denham, 14, of Portland, said his new skis were too long and he was tripping over them. The length should have been close to his nose, not to the top of his head, he said.

Ticket Continued from A1 “Honestly, we’re pretty techdependent,” said the mountain’s manager of information technology, Anthony Flores.

Daytime skiing On Dec. 30, a five-person party arrived at Mt. Bachelor: Jake; Jake’s friend Krishten Galla, 14; Jake’s sister, Sydney, 12; Jake’s mom, Becky Denham; and her sister, April Gentile, of Louisville, Ky. They had driven down from Portland in one car, Becky Denham said.

At the West Village Lodge ticket window, Becky Denham paid for three days of skiing in a fiveday window for everyone except her sister, who paid for her own ticket of the same variety.

The boys went to the Sunshine Accelerator chairlift, and the others went up Pine Marten Express.

“In the morning, (Jake) had a good time staying over on the easy stuff,” she said.

According to reports on ticket usage for the party, they skied until around 1:45 p.m. They ate lunch at Pine Marten Lodge, midway up the mountain, Becky Denham said. The bunch agreed to regroup at the bottom of the mountain at 4 p.m.

Jake’s mother, her sister, her daughter and Jake’s friend all took the Outback Express lift at 2:45 p.m. — intermediate skiing, for the most part.

At 2:58 p.m., Jake took the Northwest Express lift, which leads to several black-diamond runs, which are considered advanced. But Jake’s mother thinks he is a beginning skier these days, or maybe intermediate.

“He has a really hard time making turns when he’s in a wedge,” she said. “He doesn’t even have parallel turns.”

She said she had no idea where her son had gone after lunch.

Everyone in the party except Jake united at the meeting place by about 4:10 p.m., she said. At 4:25 p.m., they went to the car and loaded everything, figuring Jake would know to do that, too.

But he didn’t show.

They drove to a place where the family had loaded before, but Jake wasn’t there, either.

The group split up and looked around the lodges and in the ski shop.

“We covered every single nook and cranny and still didn’t find him,” said Becky Denham.

It was getting dark, and she was getting scared.

Jake goes missing At about 4:45 p.m., she went to the mountain’s ski-patrol staffers and said her son was missing.

They checked locker rooms and other areas, but no clue of Jake

Jake Denham peels back his Mt. Bachelor ticket at his home on Tuesday. turned up.

Mt. Bachelor Mountain Manager Tom Lomax asked her about her son and the day’s activities.

He also asked if she had a receipt for the tickets. She handed it to Lomax.

The receipt shows access codes for all tickets purchased.

The access codes, which also are printed on day tickets, can tell riders and mountain staff what lifts were used when.

The technology has changed slightly, but the general ability to track riders at different lifts has been around since 1991 or 1992, Flores said.

At around 5:30 p.m., Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office Search and Rescue was informed of Jake’s disappearance, according to a news release. A search for him began in earnest, and other agencies from around the state joined in, too. One helicopter was flying over the mountain in search of Jake.

For the next few hours, Jake’s family and friend sat and waited in a ski-patrol area. “I was sitting and shaking, just scared,” his mother said. She closed her eyes, held hands with her sister and chatted about whatever came to mind to pass the time. When she got cold, she did jumping jacks, she said.

After the ski-patrol area closed, the group went to the guest-services building, where the county’s search-and-rescue group had set up a command center. Later, a chaplain came by to console the group, Becky Denham said.

At around 8, Lomax checked with Flores to see if he could help run reports to determine the last lift Jake had used.

Flores obtained the transaction ID on the receipt, which allowed him to bring up the access codes for Jake, his mother, sister and friend. Flores said he used the process of elimination to determine which access code was Jake’s — all of the tickets were checked in except his.

Flores saw that Jake had last gone on the Northwest Express lift. As a result, the search party was able to narrow its focus

to the westernmost lift on the mountain. Each ticket contains radio-frequency identification, which allows the ticketholder to pass through a turnstile before boarding a chairlift.

When that occurs, the ticketholder’s appearance at that lift is reported.

Flores said it was not surprising that Jake had gotten lost there. “Normally people get lost over on the back side of Summit, out of bounds on Northwest, and sometimes Rainbow,” he said. “(At) Pine Marten, chances are you’re gonna get found.”

Flores said he checks ticketusage detail reports from access codes two to three times a year to corroborate whereabouts of skiers and snowboarders.

In ungroomed terrain On the mountain, Jake had listened to some advice from three teenagers, he said, and gone to the right of Sparks Lake Run. Upon encountering several moguls, he struggled. He decided to remove his skis.

“At first, I started to take them off and hold them to myself, to my chest, and then roll down, and that didn’t really work out,” he said. “So I laid them down, and then I rolled down the hill, sat on my butt and rocked if I could, if it was really packed down.”

Trees were all around, and snow about 10 feet high was narrowing the run, he said. He tried to walk back up to the top of the lift, but it was too steep. He had no choice but to go down.

Down he went for about an hour and a half. Then he made a hole in the snow by a bank and lay in it, to take a rest and warm up.

While in the snowbank, he saw lights from the helicopter as it flew near but not directly over him, and that was when he realized people were searching for him.

He thought he might die if he stayed in the snowbank, he said, even though he knew he could make it, because he had seen Bear Grylls, the star of “Man vs.

Wild,” endure tough situations in

nature. He prayed.

“I just really wanted to see my family and collect more coins and go fishing and just mostly be with my friends and mom and dad,” he said.

He decided to get up and walk down some more.

He spotted ski tracks and followed them down the mountain.

Then he saw tracks for a snowmobile and followed them.

“It was sort of a trench,” she said, “and when he’d lose it, he’d get on his hands and knees, feel for the ridges of the snowmobile.”

She said the tracks were coming from the bottom of Northwest Express lift.

He kept going, and eventually he saw lights from headlamps on searchers in snowshoes, his mother said. He ran and called out to them. By then it was approximately 12:10 a.m. on Friday, and the thermometer read minus5 degrees Fahrenheit, according to the county news release.

“I know, it’s so lucky,” his mother said. “The whole thing is just freaky luck. Kinda. … And will, and determination, but it was the fact that he ended up hitting that snowmobile track and then following it and then having it lead to where the people were with headlamps.”

Jake was escorted to his family in the guest-services building.

Medics checked him out, and he was found to be in good health.

He was fed.

Finally reunited, the group of five went back to a cabin where they were staying in Sisters.

The aftermath Now Jake is back at Robert Gray Middle School, where he is in eighth grade. He is more popular now, he said, after being interviewed by media outlets in the U.S. and England.

He said he has learned to stay with a buddy the next time he’s on a mountain.

On Tuesday, Jake’s mother donated money to Mt. Bachelor ski patrol and Deschutes County Search and Rescue, she said.

“Honestly,” she said, “I would love it to go to high-powered headlamps. That’s what I would like more than anything in the world.”

Scott Shelton, search-and-rescue coordinator for Deschutes County, said that while he did not run this operation, he has followed coverage of it, and he has nothing to say in the way of critiquing Jake’s methods on the mountain.

“The bottom line is you do what you have to do to survive,” he said.

Shelton credited Jake for keeping his head during the experience.

Mayor Continued from A1 “I think the time has come,” Teater said. “There are a lot of people in the community who agree with me and there’s quite a few people in the community who think we already have an elected mayor.”

Bend’s mayor is chosen by a majority vote of the sevenmember council. Once voted in, the mayor is in the position for two years and doesn’t hold any more power than the other councilors. Many other cities in Central Oregon already follow a system that has an elected mayor, including in Redmond, Prineville and Madras.

For the most part, Bend’s mayor acts as a sort of ceremonial head of the city, attending various events, such as ribbon-cuttings and running regularly scheduled council meetings. The mayor also plays a limited role in setting the agenda for the meetings with the city manager and mayor pro tem and has some sway over who is appointed to different committees as long as there is approval from other councilors.

Should the mayor became an elected position, Teater said he wouldn’t want to see the title carry any more power than it currently does. In general, he said, he just likes the idea of having a person in place who doesn’t have to build new relationships with city staff, community leaders and other government entities every two years.

Many other councilors agree that Bend’s mayor should be elected, including current Mayor Kathie Eckman, whose two-year term is up today. She thinks whoever is chosen as her replacement will have to become familiar with some of the issues she’s been tackling over the past couple years as mayor.

For instance, she said she’s been working with the Central Oregon Cities Organization on its legislative agenda for the region and thinks that by having a different councilor take over, that work might take a step backward.

“I think there needs to be more continuity from year to year for who is mayor,” Eckman said. “It worked fine when we were a smaller city and the council was very cohesive, but I think that time has gone on and we have grown so dramatically over the years, that it’s time for an elected mayor.”

The city charter would have

By Julie Cart Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Scientists still don’t know what’s causing flocks of birds to drop from the sky in the South, even as several hundred more fell dead onto a Louisiana highway.

The puzzling phenomenon started on New Year’s Eve when thousands of blackbirds were found dead in central Arkansas.

Townsfolk spent their holiday weekend removing the remains of between 4,000 and 5,000 dead red-winged blackbirds. Scientists have descended on the town, trying to find a cause for the mass die-off.

In the latest incident, roughly 500 birds were discovered scattered on a rural road in Louisiana’s Pointe Coupee Parish, 300 miles south of the Arkansas site.

Officials there are stumped as to what caused the birds to plunge to their death.

Wildlife officials in both states were sending carcasses to researchers at the National Wildlife Health Center in Madison, Wis., and the University of Georgia.

No one is yet connecting the two mass deaths, but the Audubon Society is monitoring the situation.

“Mass bird die-offs can be

caused by starvation, storms, disease, pesticides, collisions with manmade structures or human disturbance,” says Greg Butcher, Audubon’s director of bird conservation. “Scientists are still investigating what happened to the birds in Louisiana and Arkansas, but initial findings indicate that these are isolated incidents that were probably caused by disturbance and disorientation.”

Dead birds falling from sky still mystifies experts

to be amended to have an elected mayor position. Any change to the charter, which is essentially the city’s constitution, would require voter approval by a simple majority.

If the council decided to pursue a change to the charter, it would be allowed to add it to primary and general election ballots for free, according to City Recorder Patty Stell. Otherwise, she said, if the council held a special election for the change the cost to the city could be up to $90,000.

Since the city revised its charter in 1995, there have only been two amendments approved by voters: one in 2002 that would put any city sales tax to a vote of the people before it passed, and one in 2004 that made council candidates run for office by position.

City Councilor Tom Greene said there currently seems to be a consensus that Bend should pursue having an elected mayor.

He said he thinks such a position would allow whoever is elected to create a “vision” or “platform” for the city over the next four years. The problem, he added, is that someone who hasn’t had any involvement with city government could also be elected.

“The downside with an elected mayor is you could end up with somebody with zero experience getting elected in a popularity contest,” Greene said.

But where Greene sees a pitfall in that process, Teater sees opportunity. While he acknowledges there’s a risk of someone who is willing to spend a lot of money or has limited experience winning the election, there’s also a possibility to get better mayoral candidates running for office.

“It gives the community an opportunity to see who their real true leader is in their community,” Teater said. “The mayor’s going to have to run on a platform of leadership and will have to be out there introducing himself or herself to the community quite well, more so than just a council person.”

He added that it would also eliminate the political jockeying or “bartering” among councilors when a new mayor is selected.

“There’s three or four people who would like to be mayor and you have to have four council votes to do it,” Teater said. “It’s time for the community to make that decision.”

Congress Continued from A1 They’ll all be led by Ohio’s John Boehner, who is to be sworn in as House speaker shortly after noon.

Tea party loyalists are pleased with the upcoming burst of conservative initiatives and plan to keep the pressure on Congress.

Followers are being urged to visit the Capitol this week and to stop by lawmakers’ offices. On Jan. 14, they plan rallies around the country at local congressional offices.

“The message is that we’re watching, and we want you to vote based on our core values,” said Mark Meckler, a co-founder of the Tea Party Patriots.

Will the tea-party driven GOP be able to change the way Washington works?

Democrats and some independent analysts urge patience, arguing that to get anything done, Boehner and other House leaders will have to find common ground with the Democratic-led Senate and President Barack Obama, inevitably diluting the tea party’s clout.

“Things change when you have to govern,” said Rep. Henry Cuellar, D-Texas.

The tea party express will run into obstacles in the Senate, in which Democrats will have a 53-to-47 majority. Senate Democratic leaders insist in particular that the health care repeal will go nowhere.

“We urge you to consider the unintended consequences that the law’s repeal would have on a number of popular consumer protections that help middle class Americans,” the top five Senate Democrats wrote Boehner in a letter Monday.

As an example, they noted that repeal would eliminate some prescription drug help for seniors.

The 2010 health care law helps seniors close a coverage gap in Medicare prescription drug benefits, known as the “doughnut hole.”

“Taking this benefit away from seniors would be irresponsible

Bullfrogs Continued from A1 Orange limbs fly and bullfrog No. 1 almost loses his lady, but manages to clamber back on. Again his rival attacks. And again. And again.

Threatened by humans And if the alpha-dog (make that alpha-frog) skirmishing doesn’t kill them, man almost surely will: These creatures are endangered by the housing developments multiplying around Johannesburg and Pretoria, wiping out the shallow wetlands that are their breeding grounds.

Paul Fairall, 70, a retired farmer and bullfrog aficionado who wears an impressive white curling moustache, has been rescuing the giant frogs for 20 years.

He grew up with pet crows and snakes and boxes with lizards and toads in his bedroom, out of bounds for his mother.

He tells of one snake breeder who put a bullfrog in the cage as a meal for the reptile. The bullfrog ate the snake.

Alarmed at how often they got squashed by cars, he took on the role of a one-man frog rescue service two decades back. When he sees a bullfrog by the road, he picks it up and tenderly deposits it on the other side.

“If he’s going in one direction, help him in that direction, don’t try to turn him around. Pick him up and take him across the road,” Fairall advises.

He takes dozens of calls during the early summer rains from people all over Johannesburg who find bullfrogs stranded behind garden walls, in their swimming pools or car parks, trying to get to the wetlands.

He’s bought dozens from township people who had caught the bullfrogs to eat.

Extraordinary habits The frogs have a boring life, most of the time. Carruthers, the frog expert, says they spend about 11 months burrowed under the soil in a state approaching suspended animation. They secrete fluid that sets around their body in a keratin shell, with two small holes for their nostrils. In a drought, they might stay buried for two years.

When the rain comes, they make their way to their breeding grounds. After mating, females retreat to their burrows, but

and reckless at a time when it is becoming harder and harder for seniors to afford a healthy retirement,” the Democrats said.

Both parties see political opportunity from the fight to repeal health care, a battle expected to play out over months.

Another big test in this emerging power struggle is likely to come quickly. The government is expected to hit the current debt limit of $14.3 trillion early this year, and government funding for the current fiscal year expires on March 4.

Unless Congress acts to lift the debt limit and also to provide new funding, Washington could run out of money, which would force the government to shut down, as in 1995. How far will the House Republicans push to hold the line on spending? Will they let the government shut down?

The tea party folks are watching.

“These guys need to get serious,” Meckler said. “We are in serious trouble” from federal overspending, deficits and debt, she said.

Most lawmakers, though, won’t threaten a shutdown. The 1995-96 debt ceiling stalemate closed much of the government for 26 days. That triggered a political backlash against the Republicans then in charge of Congress and helped Democrat Bill Clinton cruise to re-election in 1996.

“There are some tea party members who would welcome a government shutdown, but most wouldn’t,” said Larry Sabato, director of the Center for Politics at the University of Virginia.

House Republican leaders say they want to cut $100 billion from the budget this year. That sounds like a lot, but it’s not really much in a $3.8 trillion budget; if successful, the cut would reduce federal spending to $3.7 trillion.

Moreover, other than a planned Thursday vote to cut the House’s own operating budget, which would save an estimated $35 million the first year, the GOP has produced few specifics about what would be cut.

Boehner brings new House rules

By Jennifer Steinhauer New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — Here is how most people think laws get made in this town: A member of Congress introduces a bill, his colleagues express great love/ outrage/urgency about the bill in front of C-Span, and members decide to pass or defeat it in a roll-call vote.

In reality, a complex web of rules — which differ greatly from the House to the Senate — ordains how bills become laws, determining who will speak about them and for how long, what constraints will be placed on alternatives or amendments offered to the measures, and which issues will come up and in what form.

In short, when it comes to Congress, rules are as important as in baseball, only more malleable.

It is usual for the House to tweak these rules with each new session. But Rep. John Boehner, who today will be sworn in as the new speaker, has made serious alterations in the rules. Members will vote today on changes that ostensibly increase the transparency of lawmaking, but also consolidate Republican power over the budget process.

Boehner seeks to do away with large omnibus spending bills, preferring to break them into smaller bills, and to allow for more amendments on bills generally, and more extensive debate.

Members offering bills for new programs will have to explain how they will pay for them, not by raising new revenues but by finding other ways to cut costs.

Each bill introduced will also have to cite the specific constitutional authority for its contents.

For the first time under the House rules, all bills will be required to be placed online. Committees will post their rules and their votes, as well as information about testifying witnesses in an effort to make public any conflicts of interest.

In an unusual grab of budgetary power, the incoming chairman of the House Budget Committee will be able to unilaterally set limits for categories of domestic spending until a budget resolution is passed this spring, as a budget enforcement measure.

Some of Boehner’s more notable proposals concern the transparency and speed with which bills are going to be considered.

The Republicans are committed to making all legislation available to lawmakers, and the public, at least three days before a House vote; in large part, this is

a response to the late-night revisions made to the energy bill, among others, that was decried

by Republicans.

Republicans have also pledged to have an open rule on all spending bills, which means that members of both parties will be able to offer more amendments and have more debate, which in theory would lead to more scrutiny for each government agency seeking financing.

A big exception will be the bill to repeal the health care law that House Republicans plan to bring up next week. That bill will not be subject to amendments, nor will Republicans have to abide by their own new rules that compel them to offset the cost of new bills that add to the deficit; the health care repeal and tax cuts are not subject to this new rule.

males stay by the fertilized eggs and the tadpoles, turning their aggression against any predators, greatly increasing the tadpoles’ survival chances.

Most extraordinary of all, says Carruthers, is the bullfrogs’ behavior of herding the tadpoles to safety should their water start to dry up. The frogs dig a channel to lower water and herd the tadpoles down the channel, emitting noises like a motorcycle in a low gear.

The bullfrogs, muddy olive with lurid orange underarms and creamy bellies, can live to 45 years in captivity and theoretically to about 20 in the wild.

Habitat loss But Caroline Yetman, a doctoral student who has been studying the frog’s behavior since 2002, says that because of habitat loss, frogs in Midrand (between Johannesburg and Pretoria) were surviving only five years and were significantly smaller than they had been in the early 1990s.

“With all this development, the frogs are getting hit by cars or they’re being trapped behind walls and can’t get to their breeding sites or back to their burrows.

They’re just not getting old. You don’t see the big, old bullfrogs around anymore.

“Here in Midrand, their days are certainly numbered. I don’t see them surviving here beyond the next 20 years, if it’s that much.”

For Fairall, the most wonderful sight — as good as, if not better than, the mating — is the march of the newly transformed tadpoles-turned-frogs from the wetlands shallows en masse, unless of course they happen to be marching up your driveway.

(And yes, they do march, or waddle, rather than hop.)

Last year he got a panicky call from a company whose manager was about to call a pest control firm about a baby bullfrog infestation.

Fairall rushed to find thousands of them swarming across the lawn, clogging drains. He estimates he rescued 4,000 of them. The same year, he saved 2,700 from a chemical manufacturing zone.

“I think I am the only person that will respond to the call of a bullfrog in crisis. Other people have been phoned. They’re too busy or they say, ‘I don’t do bullfrog rescues.’ I never refuse to go to save a bullfrog. I think that’s my strong point.”

WRONGFUL CONVICTIONS

Texan declared innocent after 30 years in prison

By Jennifer Emily The Dallas Morning News

DALLAS — A parolee who served more than 30 years for a crime he didn’t commit was exonerated Tuesday in a Dallas courtroom.

“You’re free to go,” State District Judge Don Adams told Cornelius Dupree Jr., one of two men wrongly convicted in a 1979 abduction, robbery and rape in Dallas.

Dupree, who has been on parole since July, served more prison time than any other Texas inmate cleared through DNA testing.

ton, and Perry Harrison said they committed the crime along with a third man, not Porter. Campbell believed Hatton and Harrison.

She also heard evidence that fingerprints at the scene implicated the third man, who is not facing charges in the case because the statute of limitations has run.

Porter said Tuesday he is working at a lawn service and enjoying spending time with his family.

He may be eligible for a onetime payment of $80,000 for every year he was wrongfully jailed. That compensation is calculated by the Texas Comptroller’s Office, but the exact amount is unclear because Porter served slightly more than 19 years in prison, but 12 of those stemmed from another sentence.

Citizenship Continued from A1 Arguing for an end to the policy, which is rooted in the 14th Amendment of the Constitution, immigration hard-liners describe a wave of migrants like Vasquez stepping across the border in the advanced stages of pregnancy to have what are dismissively called “anchor babies.”

The reality at this stretch of the border is more complex, with hospitals reporting some immigrants arriving to give birth in the United States but many of them with valid visas who have crossed the border legally for better medical care. Some are even attracted by an electronic billboard on the Mexican side that advertises the services of a U.S. doctor and says bluntly, “Do you want to have your baby in the U.S.?”

Women like Vasquez, who was preparing for a desert delivery, are rare.

Still, Arizona — whose law granting police the power to detain illegal immigrants is tied up in the courts — may again take the lead in what is essentially an effort to redefine what it means to be an American. This time, though, Arizona lawmakers intend to join with legislators from several other states to force the issue before the Supreme Court.

This coalition of lawmakers will unveil its specific plans today in Washington, but people involved in drafting the legislation say they have decided against the painstaking process of amending the Constitution.

Since the federal government decides who is to be deemed a citizen, the lawmakers are considering instead a move to create two kinds of birth certificates in their states, one for the children of citizens and another for the children of illegal immigrants.

The theory is that this could spark a flurry of lawsuits that might resolve the legal conflict in their favor.

Laura Gomez, an illegal immigrant who is six months pregnant, originally from Colima, Mexico, in Scottsdale, Ariz., on Dec. 30.

“This is not a far-out, extremist position,” said John Kavanagh, one of the Arizona legislators leading an effort that has been called just that. “Only a handful of countries in the world grant citizenship based on the GPS location of the birth.”

Most scholars of the Constitution consider the states’ effort to restrict birth certificates patently unconstitutional.

“This is political theater, not a serious effort to create a legal test,” said Gabriel J. Chin, a law professor at the University of Arizona whose grandfather immigrated to the United States from China at a time when ethnic Chinese were excluded from the country. “It strikes me as unwise, un-American and unconstitutional.”

The 14th Amendment, adopted in 1868, was a repudiation of the Supreme Court’s 1857 ruling, in Dred Scott v. Sandford, that people of African descent could never be U.S. citizens. The amendment said that citizenship applied to “all persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof.”

Still, some conservatives contend that the issue is unsettled.

Kris Kobach, the incoming secretary of state in Kansas and a law professor at the University of Missouri-Kansas City who has helped draft many of the tough immigration regulations across the country, argued that the approach the states were planning would hold up to scrutiny.

In April, Rep. Duncan Hunter, R-Calif., one of those pushing for congressional action on the citizenship issue, stirred controversy when he suggested that children born in the United States to illegal immigrants should be deported with their parents until the birthright citizenship policy was changed.

“And we’re not being mean,” Hunter told a Tea Party rally in Southern California. “We’re just saying it takes more than walking across the border to become an American citizen. It’s what’s in our souls.”

Immigrant advocates say intolerance is driving the measure.

“They call themselves patriots, but they pick and choose which parts of the Constitution they support,” said Lydia Guzman, a Latino activist in Phoenix. “They’re fear-mongerers.

They’re clowns.”

Auto sales increase DETROIT — Chrysler, Ford and General Motors reported solid December sales gains, capitalizing on consumers’ migration back to pickup trucks, SUVs and crossovers — despite gas prices that spiked as much as 40 cents a gallon.

For the year, U.S. auto sales totaled 11.6 million vehicles, an 11.1 percent gain from 2009’s 30-year low of 10.4 million.

Despite the improvement, 2010 was still the secondweakest year since 1982.

December sales were up 16.4 percent for Chrysler, 8.5 percent for General Motors and 6.8 percent for Ford.

Qualcomm near a deal to acquire chip maker

By Peter Lattman and andrew Ross Sorkin New York Times News Service

Qualcomm, the pioneering wireless technology company, is near an agreement to buy the chip maker Atheros Communications for about $3.5 billion, according to two people with direct knowledge of the talks, in a deal that underscores the emerging dominance of smart phones and tablet computers. The transaction is expected to be announced on Wednesday morning, said these people. They added the negotiations were in their final stages but could still fall apart.

For Qualcomm, which has traditionally focused on developing its proprietary technologies for cell phones, the acquisition — its largest ever — would signal a major shift. Qualcomm has been looking to expand beyond its core market of providing chips for wireless voice technology and move more aggressively into chip making for smart phones and tablets.

GOP letters ask businesses which rules to rewrite

By Binyamin Appelbaum New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — Companies spend millions of dollars each year complaining to Congress about burdensome laws and regulations, pressing their concerns in public campaigns and in private meetings. They rarely wait for invitations.

Last month a senior House Republican, Rep. Darrell Issa of California, nevertheless dispatched letters to 150 companies, trade groups and research organizations asking them to identify federal regulations that are restraining economic recovery and job growth.

Issa, incoming chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, said the concerns of businesses had been ignored by the Obama administration as it pursued what he described as an unprecedented regulatory expansion.

The responses have been predictable but, in asking, Issa also is underscoring the commitment of the new House majority to help business by curtailing government.

less known than the Apple leader, Rothberg is also a wealthy entrepreneur with a reputation as a visionary, a masterful promoter and a demanding boss.

But what Rothberg really means is that he wants to do for DNA sequencing what Jobs

did for computing — spread it to the masses.

Rothberg is the founder of Ion Torrent, which last month began selling a sequencer it calls the Personal Genome Machine. While most sequencers cost hundreds of thousands of dollars and are at least the size of small refrigerators, this machine sells for just under $50,000 and is the size of a largish desktop printer.

While not intended for the general public, the machine could expand the use of DNA sequencing from specialized centers to smaller university and industrial labs, and into hospitals and doctors’ offices, helping make DNA sequencing a standard part of medical practice.

“It’s the same 200 people around the world who buy all these machines,” Rothberg, who has a Ph.D. in biology, said of the sequencing centers. “I want to make this ubiquitous. I want to move this into the clinic.”

Rather than culturing a bug to identify what is infecting a patient, for instance, a hospital might determine its DNA sequence. Massachusetts General Hospital is already sequencing 130 genes from patient tumor samples, looking for mutations that might predict which drugs will work best. It has won an Ion Torrent machine in a contest and hopes to put it to that use.

IRS announces tax filing deadline The Internal Revenue Service on Tuesday opened the 2011 tax filing season by announcing that taxpayers have until April 18 to file their tax returns. The IRS reminded taxpayers impacted by recent tax law changes that using e-file is the best way to ensure accurate tax returns and get faster refunds.

Taxpayers will have until Monday, April 18, to file their 2010 tax returns and pay any tax due because Emancipation Day, a holiday observed in the District of Columbia, falls this year on Friday, April 15. By law, District of Columbia holidays impact tax deadlines in the same way that federal holidays do; therefore, all taxpayers will have three extra days to file this year. Taxpayers requesting an extension will have until Oct. 17 to file their 2010 tax returns.

Redmond-based Wings of the Cascades, whose owner once predicted would become the biggest flight school in the Northwest, has filed for bankruptcy.

Spirit Flight Inc., which conducts business as Wings of the Cascades, filed Thursday in U.S. Bankruptcy Court under Chapter 7, which generally calls for a trustee to sell, or liquidate, the debtor’s assets and pay off creditors with the

proceeds.

The company estimated it had between 50 and 99 creditors, assets of $100,001 to $500,000 and liabilities between $1 million and $10 million, according to its petition. However, the document did not contain a detailed list of the largest creditors frequently found in bankruptcy petitions.

The Wings of the Cascades website was not working Tuesday, and a phone number listed for the school with the Federal Aviation Adminis-

tration and the Oregon Department of Aviation was disconnected.

On Tuesday, Spirit Flight President Mary Schu said a dispute with the city of Redmond, coupled with other issues forced the bankruptcy.

Schu maintains a separate business, Mary Schu Aviation, which provides FAA-approved flight instructor refresher courses, FAA practical tests for pilots and specialty flight training, according to the business’ website.

Orbitz and Expedia battle Fed’s bond American Airlines over fees program

By Jane L. Levere New York Times News Service

A traveler searching two of the four largest online travel services, Orbitz and Expedia, is not going to find any listings for American Airlines flights — at least for the moment.

That is because American is in a standoff over the fees it must pay to list its flights with the agencies. And while that is the immediate reason for the dispute, there is a broader issue at stake: how American’s tickets are displayed and marketed to travelers.

American has developed a new direct connection distribution technology — which Orbitz and Expedia have refused to

adopt — that could change the way it displays and sells tickets.

Rather than displaying fare listings based primarily on schedules and prices, American’s technology eventually will customize offers to a traveler’s individual needs. So, during booking, the site will display fees charged for more legroom, priority seating or whatever else the passenger prefers, thus enabling American to promote options that could generate more revenue.

American’s battle with Orbitz and Expedia began late last month, when a circuit court judge in Cook County, Ill., ruled that the airline could terminate its contract with Orbitz. Ameri-

can — the third-largest airline in the United States, and, paradoxically, one of the founders of Orbitz — wanted to provide tickets to Orbitz, the smallest of the top three publicly traded online travel agencies, through its new direct connection technology. When Orbitz opposed this move, American terminated its contract with the agency, and Orbitz appealed, unsuccessfully, to the circuit court.

Meanwhile, Expedia, the largest online travel agency, chose not to renew its contract with American when it expired Dec. 31 because it, too, did not want to work with the airline’s technology.

Vineyards, though he does not drink. He has a collection of art

by Andy Warhol, Keith Haring and Roy Lichtenstein and an elaborate model railroad set.

He and his wife Bonnie, who has a medical degree, have five children, whom Rothberg often refers to in his speeches. The couple started the nonprofit Rothberg Institute for Childhood Diseases, which works on treatments for tuberous sclerosis, a rare disease that affects one of their children.

Entrepreneurialism runs in the family. Rothberg’s father, a chemical engineer, developed a new way of laying ceramic tile and started a company, Laticrete, which is now run by one of Rothberg’s brothers.

Backing from the family allowed Rothberg to start his first company, CuraGen, a pioneer in genomics, after he earned his doctorate at Yale in 1991.

Stocks of genomics companies soared and Rothberg made Fortune magazine’s 2001 list of the 40 richest Americans under 40, with an estimated net worth of $168 million.

But CuraGen’s shares, and Rothberg’s wealth, fell rapidly when investors realized that genomics was not going to lead to a plethora of new drugs. Rothberg resigned as chief executive of CuraGen in 2005. In 2009, after a cumulative loss of $469 million, CuraGen was acquired

by Celldex Therapeutics for $93.5 million in stock.

In 2000, Rothberg started 454 — he won’t say what the number means — initially as part of CuraGen.

lished one of the first two full genomes of a specific person — the DNA scientist James Watson — and also the genome of Neanderthals. But the company was passed by Illumina, which now dominates the sequencer business.

Rothberg also helped start RainDance Technologies, which makes a system for performing lab experiments using minuscule amounts of material, and ClariFI, a company founded by his nephew that sells software for hedge funds.

DNA Continued from B1 “I think all the other technologies could not be easily implemented in a lab like ours,” said John Iafrate, director of molecular diagnostics at the hospital.

Ion Torrent, he added, would “democratize” sequencing.

While most experts agree that sequencing will become commonplace in medicine, some say they think Rothberg is overselling his machine. Like the early Apple II of Jobs, it is too puny for many tasks, including sequencing the entire genome of a person.

“It dies on its output,” said David Smith, a director of technology assessment at Mayo Clinic.

Rothberg acknowledged the existing model was good for sequencing a virus or bacterium or a handful of genes, and indicated that future models would be more powerful. The Ion Torrent machine uses chips like those in a computer to do sequencing, rather than the complicated cameras and lasers most other sequencers use. That allows it to piggyback on the continuous improvement in semiconductor technology.

“We’re using that entire electronics industry supply chain,” he said.

Indulging his passions One believer is Life Technologies, a big sequencer manufacturer. It raised eyebrows in August by acquiring Ion Torrent for $375 million in cash and stock upfront, plus as much as $350 million later if sales reach certain levels.

That produced a windfall for Rothberg, 47, who had put up much of the money as well as raising $37 million from a total of 17 investors, according to a regulatory filing in March.

The three-year-old Ion Torrent, based in Guilford, Conn., is the fifth company started or bankrolled by Rothberg. That includes another sequencing company, 454 Life Sciences, which was sold to Roche for $140 million in 2007.

His track record has given him the luxury to indulge his passions. Using 700 tons of granite imported from Norway, he had his own version of Stonehenge, which he calls the Circle of Life, built near his home overlooking Long Island Sound.

Interested in wine-making, he acquired the nearby Chamard

Finding inspiration As he often tells it, in 1999, his newborn son Noah was rushed to the hospital, unable to breathe.

“I switched from being interested in genomes to being interested in his genome exclusively,” Rothberg said. In the hospital waiting room, Rothberg saw a picture of Intel’s Pentium microprocessor, with its millions of transistors, on the cover of a computer magazine.

That gave him the inspiration to speed up sequencing by working on numerous DNA snippets in parallel.

“If somebody is to get the Nobel Prize for next-generation sequencing, it should be Jonathan,” said Michael Weiner, who worked for Rothberg for many years.

With collaborators, 454 pub-

Technical hurdles Sequencing involves determining the order of the bases — the chemical units of DNA that are represented by the letters A, C, G and T — in a gene or on a chromosome. The sequence helps determine the traits of an organism.

Other machines usually detect the bases by attaching fluorescent dyes to them and using a camera. But the Ion Torrent machine uses a silicon chip that can detect the hydrogen ions given off when a new base is added to a strand of DNA. Sequencing a sample takes only an hour or two, compared with days on many larger machines.

But preparing the sample can take more than a day, and the equipment to do that costs almost as much as the sequencer itself. Moreover, the Ion Torrent machine sequences only about 10 million bases per run, compared with billions for some other machines. The cost per unit of DNA sequenced is extraordinarily high. It costs $500 per run, in part because a new $250 chip is required each time.

“Basically you are throwing away the electronic camera for every sample,” said George Church, a professor of genetics at Harvard, who is an adviser to Ion Torrent and virtually every other sequencing company.

Ion Torrent is offering prizes worth $1 million each to people who can improve the machine’s performance and accelerate the sample preparation.

While Ion Torrent can expect newer, more powerful chips to improve its performance, other sequencing companies are also making rapid strides. In a few years, it should be possible to sequence an entire human genome for less than $1,000, so that many people will be able to obtain their entire DNA blueprint.

likely to run its course

By Neil Irwin The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — Federal Reserve officials appear unlikely to stop their controversial strategy of buying vast sums of Treasury bonds before the program is scheduled to end in June, based on minutes of the central bank’s last policy meeting, released Tuesday.

Fed officials viewed the economic outlook as slightly improved at their Dec. 14 meeting, the minutes say. But it is clear that a moderately improved economy will not be enough to lead them to reconsider their Nov. 3 decision to buy $600 billion in Treasury bonds in an attempt to pump up economic growth.

“While the economic outlook was seen as improving, members generally felt that the change in the outlook was not sufficient to warrant any adjustments to the asset-purchase program,” the minutes said, “and some noted that more time was needed to accumulate information on the economy before considering any adjustment.”

Moreover, some members of the Fed’s policy committee “indicated that they had a fairly high threshold” for changing the program.

Also Tuesday, new economic data offered still more confirmation that the economic growth is strengthening. In November, factory orders rose 0.7 percent, the Commerce Department said, better than expected and rebounding from a 0.7 percent October decline. The strongest momentum was in orders for nondurable goods — those expected to last less than three years — for which orders rose 1.7 percent.

Firefox overtakes Explorer in Europe

By Kevin J. O’Brien New York Times News Service

BERLIN — For the first time in a decade, Microsoft’s Internet Explorer is no longer the leading Web browser in Europe, ceding the position to Mozilla’s Firefox, an Irish research company that tracks Web use said Tuesday.

While three research companies also active in the field disputed the finding, StatCounter, a company in Dublin, said that Firefox surpassed Internet Explorer as the top European browser in December, with a 38.1 percent share, compared with Explorer’s 37.5 percent.

“This is a watershed event for Europe,” said Aodhan Cullen, StatCounter’s chief executive and founder.

Cullen said Microsoft had lost market share mainly to Google’s Chrome browser, whose share rose to 14.6 percent from 5.1 percent a year earlier.

Internet Explorer is still the leader worldwide, with a 46.9 percent share in December, versus 30.8 percent for Firefox and 14.9 percent for Google, StatCounter said.

Barbara Huppe, a Mozilla spokeswoman in Berlin, said that her company tended to follow other studies more closely, which still placed Microsoft ahead of Firefox in Europe. But she said the StatCounter ranking showed the market was tightening.

“This is very positive for us,” Huppe said. “We have been the top browser in Germany, the biggest European market, since 2010. That has helped us a lot.”

A W Success is bittersweet for jobless who switch careers Sue Bires, who was laid off from an Orlando, Fla., job managing homeowners’ association, found a job at a call center in Austin, Texas. A study surveying jobless workers over 15 months found nearly 70 percent of those entering new careers had to take pay cuts.

Social media’s rise creates host of new job opportunities

By Sarah Lundy The Orlando Sentinel

ORLANDO, Fla. — Type “social media” in the keyword box on most job-search websites and dozens of help-wanted postings appear. That wasn’t the case just a few years ago.

A growing number of businesses and organizations of all sizes are searching for ways to tap the power of social media, such as Facebook and Twitter, which millions of people now use to stay connected online.

Experts say companies’ need for social media expertise has increased dramatically this year and will continue to grow as more people come to understand and recognize its value. And that means an explosion of job opportunities throughout the country.

“This has been the year where every organization has come to realize the importance of social media, rather than just a handful of organizations,” said Augie Ray, a Forrester Research analyst who specializes in social computing.

It’s unclear exactly how many social media-related jobs exist, but companies want their messages to get to where the people are.

Facebook, created in 2004 and now the Internet’s most popular social network, has more than 500 million users throughout the world. And it’s not just young people who are drawn to it: The number of Internet users ages 55 to 64 on Facebook has grown 88 percent in the past year, according to a study by the Pew Center’s Internet and American Life Project.

Early-stage efforts Some major brands, such as Dell Computers, have helped set the stage for other companies by showing early success with social media marketing. Last year, for example, Dell said it generated $3 million in sales with links from its various Twitter accounts.

“It wasn’t until 2009 came around, and initiatives on Facebook, Twitter and other social channels were producing soft and hard ROI (returns on investment) by major brands, that the hiring really started,” said Mark Krupinski, social media director for MindComet, an Altamonte Springs, Fla.-based interactivemarketing agency.

But the social media field is still in its early stages. Ray warned that some companies are far more advanced than others about their social media plans.

“Social media is a little all over the map right now,” he said. “It reminds me a great deal of the late 1990s with where we were in respect to the Web. At that time, companies realized they needed a new set of skills that they historically had not valued or needed. ... They went out seeking those skills, but at the time, many didn’t know what they didn’t know.”

Shawn Vincent, digital-marketing director for Brand Advance, an Orlando, Fla., interactive-marketing agency, said the influx of jobs in social media is a doubleedged sword.

“For the most part, a lot of companies still don’t know really what they are doing with a digital-media plan. ... They are not quite sure who they are looking for most of the time,” he said.

Many job descriptions appear too broad or unclear, or the identified skills being sought don’t fit

what the company actually needs.

Job titles, which range from “digital community manager” to “social media strategist,” don’t help.

“Right now, some companies are not necessarily mature in (the) way they view or use social media — but they recognize they need it,” Ray said.

Making it work Using social media is different than other types of marketing.

In a conventional campaign, the staff may spend months planning the project, Ray said. They would then launch it and move on.

With social media, the real work begins after the launch, he said, because someone has to keep track of how people react to the campaign, then respond to their comments and switch gears if needed.

That could require hiring someone capable of creating an overall digital strategy and employing a variety of online tools, experts say, or simply adding someone who could monitor and respond to public comments on Facebook, Twitter and other social media websites.

Amy Jantzer, an Orlando-based social media consultant, said she often gets calls from businesses unsure about what they need or want.

“I’ll get the phone call, ‘So-andso told me you were the person to call about social media, and I guess I need to get this up and running,’ ” she said.

“They rarely have a plan.”

Like many others working in social media, Jantzer stumbled into the field. She had studied computer science in college but was working as an insurance agent for Aflac Inc. when she started searching for new clients using social networks on the Internet rather making “cold calls” by telephone. Her supervisors at the insurance company eventually asked her to teach other agents how to drum up business using social media. Soon other agents were seeking her help as well.

In late 2008, she and a business partner started the social media consulting firm Weedot to offer training and seminars for business owners and entrepreneurs.

She soon noticed that, within a few months, the same local business owners were returning and asking for her help implementing the strategies she had taught them.

That’s when the firm got into consulting, she said, and Weedot has seen a steady stream of business since then.

Some social media experts predict that, eventually, nearly everyone in the workplace will need to be social media savvy to do their job properly. But Ray, the Forrester Research analyst, said businesses will continue to need people with specialized skills who can keep up with the fast-paced changes in social media and be among the first to identify the next big trend.

Krupinski, of MindComet, said that, just as some consultants and agencies specialize in certain niches, such as data storage, others will focus on social media as more businesses seek out trusted advisers.

“But remember ... anyone can say they’re a ‘social media guru,’ but do they really talk the talk and walk the walk?” he said. “Make sure you choose wisely, and ask for specific examples of successes before your start a relationship.”

Many appear to be taking jobs out of desperation, leading to lifestyle sacrifices

By Catherine Rampell New York Times News Service

Even the lucky ones are not so lucky, it seems.

A new study of U.S. workers displaced by the recession sheds light on the sacrifices a large number have made to find work. Many, it turns out, had to switch careers and significantly reduce their living standards.

“In many cases, these people are not very happy,” said Cliff Zukin, professor of public policy and political science at Rutgers University and one of the authors of the study. “They’re the winners who got new jobs, but they’re not really what they want and not where they want to be.”

The study, conducted by the John J. Heldrich Center for Workforce Development at Rutgers, was based on a survey of Americans who were unemployed as of August 2009 and reinterviewed about their job status twice over the next 15 months.

As of November 2010, only about one-third had found replacement jobs, either as fulltime workers (26 percent) or as part-time workers not wanting a full-time job (8 percent).

And of those who successfully found work, 41 percent had switched into a new career or field.

Some of these may have been workers who retrained for new

“In many cases, these people are not very happy. They’re the winners who got new jobs, but they’re not really what they want and not where they want to be.”

— Cliff Zukin, one of the authors of a study of U.S. workers displaced by the recession fields they wished to enter, but many seem to have taken their new jobs out of desperation.

Only a minority of those displaced workers changing careers — 22 percent — said they had taken a class or a training course before finding a new job.

“Look, I am really happy to have a job — that’s the main thing,” said Sue Bires, 60, who was laid off from a job managing homeowners’ associations in Orlando, Fla., in September 2008.

She initially had another job lined up with a different real estate association in Orlando, but when that fell through, she moved to Austin, Texas, to stay with a friend. She filed for bankruptcy and took a job at a call center.

But she now earns $30,000, far below the $45,000 she was paid when she was managing properties.

“It’s competitive out there, even for the lower-paying jobs, especially when you’re 60 look-

ing for a job in a young town,” Bires said. “So I’m grateful to have a job where the people are nice and I have a little bit of flexibility in my hours. That’s especially important now, since retirement is looking like a long way off.”

Like Bires, most of those forced to switch careers generally seemed to downgrade their job status.

Nearly seven in 10 of the survey’s respondents who took jobs in new fields say they had to take a cut in pay, compared with just 45 percent of workers who successfully found work in their original field.

Of all the newly re-employed tracked by the Heldrich Center, 29 percent took a reduction in fringe benefits in their new jobs.

Again, those switching careers had to sacrifice more: Nearly half of these workers (46 percent) suffered a cut in benefits, compared with just 29 percent who stayed in the same career.

Many of those who found work in a different field say

H I G H

they have come to terms with the limited opportunities, but they are reluctant to see their new job as a calling.

“I wouldn’t go so far as to say I’ve switched careers, since I’m not exactly sure this is a career, but I’m definitely doing something different,” said Adam Kowal, 30, of Royal Oak, Mich.

After being laid off from a job as a quality control supervisor at a department store warehouse and losing his house, he moved his family across the state to live with his mother.

Unable to find similar work, he initially took a “soul-sucking” temporary job on an assembly line making auto parts and is now working in a kitchen at a high school.

His hourly wage has fallen from $15 an hour at the warehouse to $10.50 an hour washing dishes and preparing food, and he has gone from having health insurance coverage for his entire family to no benefits. He, his pregnant wife and their 4-year-old son are now on Medicaid.

“I’d love to go back to what I was doing,” he said, or even into what he described as his true passion, full-time screenwriting. “But when I talk with the unemployment office here in Michigan, they tell me the chances of going back and using the same skill set I had before are pretty far-fetched.”

Congress

hailed by consumer groups as a necessary corrective to years of regulatory leniency. But business groups have countered that the measures will reduce profits, impede innovation and limit job creation.

Continued from B1 “A lot of people have felt shut out of the process the last few years, and they have welcomed the opportunity to give input,” said Kurt Bardella, a spokesman for Issa.

The rejoinder from Democrats perhaps also was predictable.

“This is even more evidence that House Republicans are in the business of protecting corporate special interests instead of creating middle-income jobs,” the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee said in a statement.

Others were harsher: “Rather than providing a platform for presentation of a corporate wish list, Rep. Issa should be subjecting corporate claims to the withering scrutiny he promises for the Obama administration,” the consumer group Public Citizen said in a statement. “It’s time we ended the Kabuki theater of corporate whining, and got on with the serious business of creating jobs and making America safer and cleaner.”

The Obama administration has indeed significantly expanded federal oversight in areas including finance, health care and food production, and it has increased enforcement of existing regulations in a wider range of areas. The effort has been

What businesses want Respondents to Issa’s letter said they generally focused on their own industries. Financial companies cited price controls on debit card transactions. Manufacturers highlighted new oversight of emissions.

But several groups said they saw an important opportunity to focus attention on the cumulative impact of all those regulations.

Rosario Palmieri, vice president of regulatory policy at the National Association of Manufacturers, said the weight of regulation had reached an unprecedented level. He noted that Issa’s committee had a broad mandate to turn its investigative resources on almost any subject, providing a rare opportunity for a wide-angle focus.

“We need to look governmentwide at the cost of regulation and its impact on industry. Few take so broad a look at regulation.

Mostly they review the individual agencies or program areas.

So this particular review could be very promising because of its ability to look at the cumulative burden of regulation,” Palmieri

CES

influence that the most-anticipated devices to be rolled out at the show are those that Apple either pioneered or has recently become a major player in. The annual gathering of the world’s tech industry draws more than 100,000 people.

Continued from B1 There is even an “iLounge” that will feature companies hawking carrying cases, docking bays, car chargers and other accessories for Apple products.

“Apple is the phantom haunting CES,” said Yair Reiner, an analyst at Oppenheimer & Co. “The show is supposed to be about new and innovative products, but to a large extent what you’re going to see is the rest of the electronics world trying to catch up to what Apple is already doing.”

Apple stopped participating in industry trade shows altogether in 2009, when it withdrew from the Apple-centric MacWorld conference, where for years Chief Executive Steve Jobs took the stage to show off the company’s new products. Now Apple, whose market capitalization recently passed $300 billion to make it the second most valuable U.S. company behind Exxon Mobil Corp., makes product announcements on its own timeline.

It’s a mark of the company’s

Tablets to TVs At CES, one visible skirmish will be among the manufacturers that will release tablet computers to compete with the iPad. Apple released its bestselling tablet in April, sending competitors scrambling to develop their own. Meanwhile, Apple has sold nearly 13 million iPads, which start at $499, analysts estimate.

By next year, the tablet market is expected to reach close to $34 billion — with Apple accounting for more than 60 percent of the sales, according to projections from JPMorgan Chase & Co. But the allure of the remaining billions of dollars has drawn tablet makers from around the world, with dozens of the devices expected to be unveiled at CES, including possible models from Hewlett-Packard Co., Microsoft

said.

In the letters, Issa said that federal agencies promulgated 43 “major” regulations in the last fiscal year, which he said would impose a cost on business of $28 billion. He described that as the largest increase in federal regulation in a single year.

He asked recipients to identify “existing and proposed regulations that negatively impact the economy and jobs.”

and it’s really a perfect storm. It’s really unprecedented.”

Issa’s interest in regulatory burden is part of a broader agenda for his committee that he began to describe in greater detail this week. In a series of Twitter posts, he listed topics including corruption in Afghanistan, the mortgage companies Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and the handling of food and drug recalls.

In the posts, Issa described those topics as an “initial oversight investigations lineup,” but Bardella said Tuesday that those areas would not necessarily become the subjects of investigations. He said they were simply topics of interest.

Other subjects on the list include WikiLeaks and the performance of the commission appointed by Congress to write a history of the financial crisis.

Democrats are gearing up too, passing over two more senior members to select Rep. Elijah Cummings of Maryland, regarded as a more effective foil to Issa’s ambitions, as the new ranking member of the oversight committee.

Cummings, in turn, hired as his staff director David Rapallo, a veteran congressional investigator with previous experience working for the committee when Democrats were in the minority.

He was most recently an official on the National Security Council.

Vetting regulation The existence of the letters was first reported by Politico.

Bardella said Issa reached out regularly to industry and other groups. He said that the responses to these letters would be compiled and shared with the public, but that it was impossible to say what other action might be taken.

Reed Rubinstein, a regulatory counsel at the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, said the group hoped the letters were an indication that Congress was taking more seriously its responsibility to oversee the work of regulatory agencies.

“What’s heartening to me at least, is that Congress is beginning to pay attention again to vetting regulation,” Rubinstein said.

“You have a very activist administration and you have statutes that are very broad, allowing agencies to do what they see fit,

Corp. and Korean manufacturer LG Electronics Inc. Irvine, Calif.-based Vizio Inc. and Taiwanbased Asustek Computer Inc. announced tablets Monday.

There was even a new product called itablet — from a British company called AHX Global.

The hot topic of this year’s convention is the Internet-connected TV, a category of television sets that will allow users to directly surf the Web and access online video, as well as watch traditional cable programming.

In the run-up to the show, however, Apple announced that its Apple TV product, a separate box that enables TV watchers to rent movies and watch online video, has sold 1 million units since its launch in September.

of smart phones, a hair behind Apple’s 28.6 percent, according to Nielsen Co., which said Monday that the race for the smart phone market leader is “the tightest it has ever been.”

Verizon Wireless, which carries popular Android phones like the Droid X and Droid 2, is widely expected to announce yet another Google-powered phone, potentially for its newer high-speed 4G network.

Even still, one of the most persistent rumors in the technology world is that Verizon is working with Apple to bring the iPhone to its network, blunting the business advantage of AT&T, the iPhone’s exclusive carrier. That announcement — as often as it may be discussed at the show — is not expected this week.

Perhaps fittingly, Apple did not respond to a request to comment for this report.

Apple’s absence is “perfectly in character,” said Ross Rubin, an analyst for the market research firm NPD Group. “It’s not a company that’s going to hop on the bandwagon simply because the bandwagon is there.”

Smart phone upgrades In the smart phone category, Apple’s rivals will be trying to gain ground on its iPhone.

The iPhone’s competition is the army of increasingly popular phones powered by Google Inc.’s Android operating system. Android phones now account for 25.8 percent

Bankruptcy Continued from B1 Schu, a pilot for more than 30 years, bought a Cessna and began a flight school at Redmond Airport in the 1990s, according to an Oregon Employment Department success story published in 2008 on the agency’s website.

In 2004, Delta Air Lines selected Wings of the Cascades as one of 50 flight schools nationwide to offer training that guaranteed graduates a job interview with a Delta carrier, according to The Bulletin’s archives. Three years later, the school had a similar arrangement with American Eagle Airlines, a regional carrier owned

by American Airlines, according to the archives.

But a plan to expand her business at Redmond Airport by opening a fixed-base operation — a business that provides aviation-related services like fueling — known as Desert Wings Jet Center did not take off and has led to a five-year battle with the city of Redmond and the airport that featured three separate lease agreements, along with a lawsuit and a 2009 FAA formal complaint, both filed by Wings

Qualcomm Continued from B1 An announcement of a Qualcomm-Atheros tie-up would coincide with the start of the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, where the two companies will be displaying their products.

Qualcomm is offering $45 a share, said the people with direct knowledge of the talks.

That represents a premium of 29 percent to Atheros’ average stock price over the last month and a premium of 21 percent to its trading on Tuesday afternoon. Shares of Atheros jumped after the report, closing up almost 19 percent, at $44.

Qualcomm has long been one of the dominant players in supplying chips to wireless phones for voice communications. But in recent years, Paul Jacobs, its chief executive, has expressed a keen interest in diversifying and improving its product line as cell phones have evolved into smart phones and tablets. These de-

of the Cascades.

Desert Wings, Spirit Flight, Wings of the Cascades and Schu accused Redmond Airport officials of failing to fix wastewater and drainage issues on property leased from the airport, denying Schu’s ability to expand by creating unreasonable standards and changing requirements and essentially giving another fixed-base operator exclusive rights to do business at the airport, according to FAA documents.

The FAA’s director of the Office of Airport Compliance and Field Operations ruled in November that the airport did not violate its federal obligations and dismissed the complaint.

Schu said Tuesday she is appealing the decision.

“I totally disagree with their findings,” she said.

Carrie Novick, Redmond Airport manager, said Tuesday that Wings of the Cascades was no longer in business at the airport.

Despite their differences, she said, she was sorry it closed.

“You hate for anybody to go out of business,” she said. “This is a tough economy right now.”

vices require more processing power and myriad types of connectivity, like Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS. Atheros, based in San Jose, Calif., is one of the top chip makers for these new technologies, so an acquisition would allow Qualcomm, which has a market value of $82.5 billion, to make further inroads in these markets.

This week, Atheros announced several new wireless products that bring Wi-Fi and Bluetooth technology to tablets while reducing power consumption and increasing the longevity of batteries in such devices.

Through the first nine months of 2010, Atheros earned $77.6 million on $700 million in revenue. The company, whose chief executive is Craig H. Barratt, has about 1,700 employees.

Atheros was founded in 1998, partly by John Hennessy, now president of Stanford.

Qualcomm and Atheros have collaborated before, striking a partnership in 2006 to develop mobile phone chips.

Walden seeks Deschutes may alter health policy County considers increasing premiums with to trim House discounts for assessment participation office budgets Dave Kanner wants to increase the premiums in the upcoming budget year, and then offer lower premiums as incentives to employees who participate in the health assessments.

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

By Keith Chu The Bulletin

WASHINGTON — U.S. House members will see their office budgets trimmed along with the rest of federal government spending, under a bill U.S. Rep. Greg Walden, R-Hood River, announced on Tuesday.

The measure would cut 5 percent from every U.S. House office budget and pare back other Congressional expenses, for a total of $35 million in savings. The resolution is expected to receive a vote on Thursday, as one of the first actions of the new U.S. Congress.

Walden recommended cutting Congressional budgets as chairman of the GOP Office of Majority Transition, which drafted new rules and procedures for the House session that officially begins today. The savings are small in the context of the more than $3 trillion federal budget, but Walden said the measure demonstrates that Congress takes spending seriously.

“The message we’re sending is: Rep. Greg The American people; we heard Walden, you, we’re reforming how ConR-Hood River gress operates, we’re starting with our own budgets when it comes to spending,” Walden said on Tuesday afternoon, in an interview before a meeting of Republican House members. “I think for this institution, it’s pretty significant to cut member budgets by 5 percent.”

House office budgets currently range from about $1.3 million to $1.9 million, under a formula that takes into account the distance a district is from Washington, D.C., according to House rules.

It’s the time of year for resolutions to be healthier and save money, and Deschutes County is moving ahead with plans to meet both those goals.

Starting next week, at least 280 county employees are scheduled to undergo voluntary health risk assessments aimed at identifying previously undiagnosed medical prob-

lems and getting an overall picture of employee health. On Feb. 7, an onsite employee health clinic will open.

It is supposed to provide care that is convenient for county employees and saves the county money.

Deschutes County officials will also discuss whether to raise employees’ monthly health insurance premiums, from $50 to $65, during a Thursday budget committee meeting. County Administrator

Union officials concerned

County commissioners had mixed reactions to the idea of using premiums as incentives, while an employee union representative was concerned about the idea of increasing premiums.

Musician Monica Torrey dies at 54

Right on cue

IN CONGRESS

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

Music teacher, performer, and local theater director Monica Torrey died Thursday of ovarian cancer. She was 54.

Sarah Mattox, a Seattle-based opera singer raised in Bend and a longtime friend of Torrey’s, said she’s most likely responsible for bringing Torrey to Central Oregon in around 2000. The two met in 1997 while Torrey was working toward her doctorate of Monica Torrey musical arts at the University of Washington School of Music and quickly became close friends. Maddox pointed Torrey toward opportunities to teach vocal master classes in Central Oregon.

Torrey and her husband, Dee Torrey, immersed themselves in the local arts scene upon arriving in Bend, performing in and directing shows with the Cascades Theatrical Company, Second Street Theater and Obsidian Opera Company. Monica Torrey was a professor of music at Central Oregon Community College, and a vocal coach to many local performers.

Bend High wins Nike recycling competition Bulletin staff report Bend High School students have turned 544 old shoes into something new: victory.

The students at Bend High collected the most shoes as part of Nike’s Capitol Hill Reuse-A-Shoe Challenge. Bend High beat out groups from Hillsboro High, North Salem High, Roosevelt High in Portland, and the Boys & Girls Club of Emerald Valley’s Cottage Grove branch.

Each school was paired with members of the Oregon delegation of the U.S. House. Rep. Greg Walden’s Bend team collected more than a third of the 1,250 shoes collected in the state.

“I am extremely proud of Bend High School’s impressive feat of collecting more than 500 pairs of shoes in support of the Reuse-A-Shoe challenge,” Representative Walden said in a statement from Nike. “I applaud Nike and the Climate Group for this annual competition that promotes community building by recycling shoes for new and innovative playgrounds. Thank you to the many Oregonians involved in making this year’s drive another success.”

Pat McHenry, the teacher of the sports marketing class at Bend High School, said his students started the project just after Thanksgiving, and spent about 21⁄2 weeks combing the community for used shoes.

McHenry said his students came up with creative ideas he’d never considered, including taking the campaign to area elementary and middle schools, and setting up collection boxes at local running stores.

services, when employees choose more expensive options.

The idea is for people who are making what Kanner calls “poor choices about treatment,” such as using the emergency room as primary care, to get an idea of the costs of their medical decisions.

“They should pay more at the point of service,” Kanner said.

The county is self-insured and spends approximately $13 million a year on health insurance claims and medications. The county’s total budget is approximately $266 million a year.

Aaron Kirk, 31, of Redmond, left, and Michelle Morrell, 47, of Bend, both employees of the Bend Park & Recreation District, scoop up leaves and needles, placing the piles they gather into the bucket of a tractor, during a “bank rehab” project to improve the appearance of Drake Park in Bend on Tuesday afternoon.

Mattox said she recognized Torrey as someone worth getting to know early on.

“It’s her personality. She’s really, really funny, very open, very opinionated, very witty,” Mattox said. “Just a stunningly funny and intelligent person.”

Melissa Bagwell, a student of Torrey’s, said she’s studied voice for 25 years with many different teachers and coaches, but never really understood good singing technique until she worked with Torrey.

A Deschutes County patrol deputy shot and killed a dog that attacked him as he attempted to serve multiple warrants on a Sisters-area man Tuesday morning, the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release.

While patrolling in the Sisters area shortly after 11 a.m. Tuesday, the deputy observed Thurlow Ernest Hanson, 66, outside his home in the 16600 block of Bitterbrush Lane east of Sisters.

Hanson was wanted on five warrants, a New York warrant for first-degree sexual conduct against a child, and four counts of first-degree sex abuse from Deschutes County.

As the deputy attempted to contact Hanson, he was attacked by Hanson’s five dogs, one of which bit him and knocked him to the ground. The depu-

“He was fortunate, it’s wintertime, and he was wearing lots of layers.”

— Capt. Tim Edwards, Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office ty fired one shot and struck one of the dogs, which was later found deceased on Hanson’s back porch. Hanson and the dogs fled to the home.

The deputy was not identified.

Additional deputies and officers from the Black Butte Ranch Police Department arrived on the scene to assist. With help from Hanson’s attorney, Hanson was persuaded to come outside and surrender to deputies a little over an hour after the standoff began.

As of Tuesday, Hanson was being held in the Deschutes County Jail.

Capt. Tim Edwards of the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office said the deputy was not seriously hurt during the episode.

“He was fortunate. It’s wintertime, and he was wearing lots of layers,” Edwards said. “It tore his pants and didn’t break the skin.”

State court records indicate Hanson’s four Deschutes County warrants are related to incidents alleged to have occurred in 2003. Edwards said the charges against Hanson came out of an investigation by Oregon State Police detectives, and he is not familiar with the allegations against him.

MARION COUNTY

Deputies save nine horses, arrest owners The Associated Press WOODBURN — The Marion County Sheriff’s Office says it has rescued nine neglected horses from a muddy field in Woodburn.

Deputy Pete Marcellais was able to identify three owners who said they were raising the horse for rodeos. One man acknowledged feeding the animals only straw.

Sheriff’s spokesman Don Thomson says Kahl reported Tuesday that the horses are all suffering from severe malnutrition as well as dehydration, hoof abscesses and skin sores.

The deputy arrested and cited the three owners for investigation of nine counts of animal neglect. A court date is scheduled Feb. 7.

Walden Continued from C1 House Republicans have pledged to cut about $100 billion in federal spending once they take control of the chamber.

Also on Tuesday, Republicans approved a package of rules for the House session that begins today. The move essentially marked the end of Walden’s tenure as head of the transition office. Walden said he’s enjoyed the job, but is ready to move on to making laws and setting policy.

Portland wants variance 2 Texans plead not guilty to Iran money scheme from treatment plant rule

By Tim Fought

The Associated Press

The Associated Press PORTLAND — Tests that failed to show a single sample of a potentially lethal parasite in drinking water support arguments against building a $100 million treatment plant, the city of Portland said.

Workers sampled 3,500 gallons over 12 months at the Bull Run reservoirs near Mount Hood, which serve nearly 900,000 customers in Portland and its suburbs. Tests of 750 samples failed to show any sign of the chlorineresistant parasite cryptosporidium, The Oregonian reported.

David Shaff, administrator of the Portland Water Bureau, said city scientists worked with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency to design the sampling to test water and wildlife scat for the parasite that causes cryptosporidiosis. The disease can cause severe diarrhea and can

“It has been interesting work and it has been productive work, but I’m ready to move on now into policy work on the Energy and Commerce Committee,” Walden said.

The rules make a host of changes to how the House does business, from making it easier to cut federal spending, to liberalizing the policy on use of electronic devices on the House floor.

Democratic Whip Steny Hoyer, of Maryland, attacked the rules on Tuesday as being written without Democratic input, in

be fatal, especially in people with weakened immune systems.

The city will use the data, which it says are the most rigorous testing for cryptosporidium in the nation, to request a variance from a federal rule that would require building a treatment plant by 2014.

‘There is a good case’ “We think there is a good case to make that we’re the one jurisdiction in the entire country that should get a variance,” Shaff said. “We have pretty much answered all the questions that they have.”

A final decision will be up to the Oregon Health Authority, but the EPA will provide the state with technical support, said Michael Bussell, director of EPA’s Seattle office of water and watersheds.

a news release.

“Already they have shut Democrats out of the process in developing the Rules package,” Hoyer’s office wrote.

The attack, however, wasn’t true. Walden spoke directly to two Democrats — Reps. Robert Brady, of Pennsylvania, and Robert Andrews, of New Jersey — and sent questionnaires to every member of the House.

Although some analysts, like the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities, have written that the rules’ preference for tax cuts will likely increase the federal deficit,

“We can tap a broader pool of experts,” Bussell said Tuesday. “But it will be incumbent on the city to demonstrate to the state what is going on in the watershed.”

Christine Stone, spokeswoman for the Oregon Health Authority, said the city has not yet submitted its application but a decision will be based on other factors besides the sampling results.

As it stands, Portland’s century-old system is one of the simplest and most protected in the nation. The Bull Run reservoirs are protected from logging, grazing and public access over their 104-square-mile watershed.

The bureau injects chlorine and ammonia, but there’s no further treatment before the water flows by gravity to customers in the metro area.

Walden said he’s pleased with the results.

“We seemed to accomplish one of our missions, which was making sure members of both parties had an opportunity to weigh in on how to reform this place,” Walden said. “And in terms of transparency and accountability, there will be a lot more of that around Congress, at least the House, than there’s ever been before in modern times.”

ON THIS DATE In 1781, a British naval expedition led by Benedict Arnold burned Richmond, Va. In 1809, the Treaty of the Dardanelles, which ended the Anglo-Turkish War, was concluded by the United Kingdom and the Ottoman Empire.

In 1895, French Capt. Alfred Dreyfus, convicted of treason, was publicly stripped of his rank.

(He was ultimately vindicated.)

In 1925, Nellie Ross of Wyoming became the first female governor in U.S. history.

In 1933, the 30th president of the United States, Calvin Coolidge, died in Northampton, Mass., at age 60.

In 1949, in his State of the Union address, President Harry S. Truman labeled his administration the Fair Deal.

In 1957, President Dwight D. Eisenhower proposed assistance to countries to help them resist Communist aggression; this became known as the Eisenhower Doctrine.

In 1970, Joseph Yablonski, an unsuccessful candidate for the presidency of the United Mine Workers of America, was found murdered with his wife and daughter at their Clarksville, Pa. home. (UMWA President Tony

T O D AY I N H I S T O R Y Boyle and seven others were convicted of, or pleaded guilty in the killings.) The soap opera “All My Children” premiered on ABC-TV. In 1994, Thomas “Tip” O’Neill, former speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives, died in Boston at age 81.

In 1998, Sonny Bono, the 1960s pop star-turned-politician, was killed when he struck a tree while skiing at the Heavenly Ski Resort on the Nevada-California state line; he was 62.

TEN YEARS AGO In a blizzard of last-minute executive orders, President Bill Clinton curtailed road building and logging on federal forest land and reorganized the nation’s counterintelligence efforts.

FIVE YEARS AGO Attacks across Iraq killed more than 120 Iraqis and 11 U.S. service members. A building used as a hostel by pilgrims in Mecca, Saudi Arabia, collapsed, killing 76 people. Christian broadcaster Pat Robertson suggested that Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s severe stroke was divine punishment for “dividing God’s land.” (Robertson later apologized.)

ONE YEAR AGO President Barack Obama scolded 20 of his highest-level officials over the botched Christmas Day terror attack on an airliner bound for Detroit, taking them jointly to task for “a screwup that could have been disastrous” and should have been avoided. The U.S. and British em-

bassies in Yemen reopened their doors after a two-day closure prompted by security concerns.

PORTLAND — A Texas couple accused of violating the U.S. embargo against Iran in a money laundering and tax fraud scheme pleaded not guilty Tuesday.

Dr. Hossein Lahiji and Najmeh Vahid appeared in federal court in Portland, headquarters of the Child Foundation, a charity that federal prosecutors say was the conduit for $1.8 million.

The couple got tax breaks but retained control of the money, some of it going into Iranian investments, and some of it split with Ayatollah Nasser Makarem Shirazi, according to an indictment handed up in December.

Health Continued from C1 Employee health insurance premiums currently raise $485,000 annually, said county Finance Director and Treasurer Marty Wynne. It is unknown exactly how much money the proposed increase from $50 to $65 a month would raise, because that depends on how many people would be insured if and when the increase takes effect.

Also, officials do not know whether employees of Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council — who are also covered by county health insurance — would pay increased premiums as well.

Proposal gets mixed reactions County Commissioner Alan Unger said he likes Kanner’s incentive proposal, but it probably needs to be discussed at the county’s Employee Benefits Advisory Committee.

“I think it’s to try to encourage and incentivize people to move forward with the health assessment, so then we can get them involved in their health and wellness,” Unger said. “I guess I like the idea, and I’m looking forward to the discussions we have in the budget process.”

Commissioner Tammy Baney said she supports an increase in employee health insurance premiums, because it gives employees more of an ownership stake in their health.

“It is something that I have felt is necessary for the last couple of years,” Baney said.

And since county departments are charged health insurance premiums based on how many employees they have, higher health costs mean there is less money to spend on services to the community, Baney said.

As for the idea of using lower employee premiums as an incentive for participation in the health assessments, Baney said she wanted to discuss the idea more and was not ready to endorse it.

She does support the idea of charging higher copays when employees choose more expensive health care options.

The county is planning to study its health care costs sometime in the next few months, to determine which

Also indicted was Ahmad Iranshahi, a cousin of the former president of the Child Foundation, Mehrdad Yesrebi, who formed the organization in 1994.

Iranshahi is described in court documents as a resident of Iran who handled a sister charity and conveyed money into Iran.

Lahiji, a urologist, and Vahid, a lawyer, are from McAllen.

They were released after the brief hearing Tuesday.

In a year-end Website posting, the Child Foundation said federal authorities investigating whether the organization violated its tax-exempt status or breached the U.S. embargo of Iran vowed last year to bring charges against it.

services are costing the most for the health care plan.

Commissioner Tony DeBone, who was sworn into office Monday, said he was still familiarizing himself with the insurance issue and declined to comment.

Yaju Dharmarajah, the council representative for American Federation of State County and Municipal Employees Council 75, or AFSCME, said Kanner’s proposal to increase insurance premiums needs to go before the Employee Benefits Advisory Committee, before county officials can adopt it.

“I know our committee hasn’t voted on that,” Dharmarajah said.

Under AFSCME’s contract, the advisory committee is supposed to review any proposed changes to the insurance plan. But the contract also allows for monthly insurance premiums up to $95 in the current budget year.

Increase allowed under contract Kanner said the county can increase premiums to $65 a month without going to the advisory committee, because that is below the amount allowed under the contract.

Timm Schimke, director of the county Department of Solid Waste and chairman of the Employee Benefits Advisory Committee, said the committee heard from other governments that the employee health assessments helped identify previously undiagnosed health problems.

But Schimke does not want to make higher insurance premiums a penalty for employees who do not sign up for the health assessments. If the budget committee wants to increase premiums, they should do so for everyone, Schimke said. If too few employees sign up for the assessments, the county can always offer lower premiums as incentives in the future.

Outdoor fun under one roof

Website provides outlet for literary teenagers

Parks district hosts athletic camps at Cascade Indoor Sports

By Julie Bosman

By Megan Kehoe

New York Times News Service

The Bulletin

When Jacob Lewis helped create the beta version of the website Figment with Dana Goodyear, a staff writer at The New Yorker, Lewis envisioned it as a sort of literary Facebook for teens.

Figment.com was unveiled last month as an experiment in online literature, a free platform for young people to read and write fiction. Users are invited to write novels, short stories and poems, collaborate with other writers and give and receive feedback on the work posted on the site.

Lewis said he hoped Figment would attract more than a million users and serve as an opportunity for publishers to roam the website looking for fresh young talent, or promote their own authors by running book excerpts.

“For publishers this is an amazing opportunity to not only reach your consumers but to find out really valuable information about how they are reading,” he said.

David Steinberger, the chief executive of Perseus, said he saw Figment as an opportunity to get the company’s content in front of teenagers.

The field could have been covered in burning coals.

Marcus Roberts, 6, danced around the turf like his feet were on fire, as brightly colored foam balls whizzed through the air, striking the ground in front of him.

“Bring it!” Marcus yelled, his high-pitched voice reverberating off the plastic walls surrounding the turf field.

“Bring it!”

Even though Marcus was outnumbered and facing an onslaught of dodgeballs, he showed no fear.

On Thursday at Cascade Indoor Sports in Bend, about 20 kids between the ages of 6 and 10 participated in the last day of the Bend Park & Recreation District’s All Sports Camp during their winter break. Throughout the week, students had played a variety of classic and modern P.E.-style games, including dodgeball, capture the ball, and ultimate Frisbee in the indoor soccer field at the center. Students even got to roller-skate throughout the 9 a.m.-to-noon sessions.

players who had gotten out, leaving only a few left on the playing field. Dylan Warren, 10, was one of the players left in the game and saved his team from defeat by catching two balls thrown at him simultaneously. Yells of joy echoed across the field as two players on Dylan’s team broke free of sideline jail.

“I like that we get to play so many games,” said Dylan, who has been to the camp several times in the past. “It’s cool we can switch to different ones all the time” Tinner said that being able to play a variety of games is one of the draws of the camp, and helps even the playing field between the older and younger players.

“They get to do a little bit of everything,” said Tinner, “So everyone gets a chance to be good at something.”

The camp costs $85 for a fourday session, and is held multiple times throughout the year when students are out of school. Tinner says 90 percent of the students who sign up for the camp have attended it before.

‘We get a ton of return kids’

‘There’s so much value’ to camps “There’s so much value in having a camp like this,” said Tara Tinner, manager of Cascade Indoor Sports, who oversees the camp. “The kids get to be active and play with their friends in a structured environment, and they’re not just at home feeling bored.”

After a brief snack before dodgeball, students took the turf field, where coaches John and Shannon Kromm had lined up a row of colorful foam balls along a line on the near half of the field. The students were split up into two teams and lined up on each side of the plastic wall, waiting in anticipation for the whistle.

“It’s awesome, because we get to run and throw balls,” said Cash Niemeyer, 9, who said that he likes the camp because he gets to play a lot

Once the whistle rang out, students rushed to the center line, grappling for the foam balls,

and chucking them at players on the other team. A ball whizzed through the air, striking Trayce Thompson, 7, in the legs. He dra-

matically limped off the field to the makeshift dodgeball jail underneath the indoor soccer goal.

“We get a ton of return kids,” said Tinner. “When I enter them into the computer, I usually recognize most of the names. It’s really nice to be able to have that connection with them.”

After several sessions of dodgeball, the group transitioned to a game of “Humongous Soccer.” Students grabbed blue and red pennies, and split up into two teams. Using the full field, players chased a giant soccer ball, at least 15 times the size of a normal ball, and tried to kick it into the opposing goal. Players stuck to the ball like it was a magnet, kicking it sharply until some progress was made down the field.

Sarah Sessions, 8, kicked the soccer ball tirelessly. At one point, the ball spun back, hitting her square in the face. She kept on playing, pushing past the pain, not wanting to miss any of the game. Only later did she leave the field to recover from the hit.

Allison Dahlgren, 10, said she has been to the All Sports Camp at least four or five times over the past few years. She said she keeps coming back because of the fast pace of the camp.

“If I wasn’t here, I’d probably be watching TV or playing on the computer,” said Allison. “It’s nice because you come to camp and you get to be with your friends.

And you always make new ones, too.”

College applicants try to sharpen their profiles with video essays

By Jenna Johnson The Washington Post

To complete a half-dozen college applications, Morgan Malone lined up letters of recommendation, penned essays and — for George Mason University — carried around a video camera for several days.

The result was a nearly two-minute video essay that opens with Malone introducing herself from atop the sign outside Mountain View High School in Stafford County, Va. There are clips of her walking the school’s hallways, participating in a quiz bowl and volunteering. At the end, her assistant principal jumps on a desk and shouts, “I approve this message.”

“Instead of having an application and words in an essay, they get to see me,” said Malone, 17. “Hopefully, when they are watching the video, they will get a picture of what I am like. The way I talk in the video is the same way I talk every day.”

This is the second year that GMU has formally given students the option to submit a video about themselves before the Jan. 15 application deadline.

Videos have been a small part of the admissions process for years, especially for students applying to arts programs.

But as cameras and editing software get cheaper and easier to use, the videos have become more technically sophisticated and feature clips spliced from a number of scenes, voice-overs, music and simple special effects.

And increasingly, it’s not just arts students participating — prospective English majors and engineers are using their cellphones, webcams and point-and-shoots to make their cases for admission.

A few colleges are hoping to harness

YouTube

College applicants are seeking to sharpen their profiles with video essays. David Dorsey, 18, a high school senior from New Jersey, in a scene from his video essay for George Mason University. that love for video and have created channels for students to submit video essays, although most schools do not accept them in place of a written one. Typically, applicants post their videos on YouTube and send colleges a link, although some send schools a DVD. This is the second year that Tufts University in Massachusetts has given applicants

the option of submitting a video along with the required written essays. St. Mary’s College of Maryland has long accepted all sorts of artistic expression, and this year officials encouraged students to submit an “audition tape” instead of an essay.

In most cases, the videos do not make or break a student’s chance of getting into a college. Last year, GMU received about

100 videos, and there were fewer than a handful of cases in which the video factored into the process and helped a student get in, said Andrew Flagel, GMU’s dean of admissions.

“Some of them are awful, and some of them are phenomenal,” he said. Awful, a few admissions officers said, means boring or having extremely poor sound quality or a script that was obviously written by a parent.

Last year, one of the admissions office’s favorite videos featured a student sitting in front of a camera talking about why he wanted to attend GMU — except for when he spliced in clips of himself playing a variety of musical instruments and even demonstrating his unicycle-riding skills.

Although the antics were amusing, the staff was most focused on what the student said.

GMU used to conduct face-to-face interviews with many of the few thousand students who applied each year. But as the number of applications multiplied — this year it’s expected to reach nearly 20,000 for a class of 2,600 — the college had to phase out the program. Flagel hopes the videos will help his office put faces with names.

But the increasing popularity of video essays worries some admissions officials, including Henry Broaddus, dean of admission at the College of William & Mary.

College applications are “absolutely confidential records,” and allowing students to post part of an application on an outside site such as YouTube “punches a peek hole” into the process and allows the general public to judge a 17-year-old applicant, he said.

Bend protects 6 percent pickup

G

overnment officials tend to blame taxpayers whenever they’re unable to make ends meet. Those in Bend, true to form, have pegged the city’s looming general fund cri-

sis on the city’s supposedly inadequate tax rate and, by extension, taxpayers who may be reluctant to pay more to help the city in its hour of need. Given how low the city’s rate is, the thinking goes, only a selfish cheapskate would refuse to open his wallet on behalf of police officers, firefighters and so on.

Before you take the city’s implicit criticism to heart, remember that red ink is produced by the relationship between two factors, only one of which is revenue. The other is spending.

Not only did outgoing Gov. Ted Kulongoski’s Reset Cabinet recognize this fact, but it identified a few major red-ink culprits. Among these is the 6 percent pickup, which refers to the percentage of employees’ salaries that most government agencies contribute to a 401(k)-style retirement account. This account, by the way, is separate from the notoriously expensive PERS retirement plan that public employees already enjoy. Because forcing taxpayers to double up in this fashion is both unsustainable and unjustifiable, the Reset Cabinet urged policymakers to at least chip away at the pickup.

So let’s do some pretending.

Let’s pretend the Legislature discovered some courage during the 2011 session and tried to deep-six the pickup for state employees. And let’s pretend taxpayers and government leaders throughout the state, including those in Bend, caught the bug.

What would happen?

The unions representing city of Bend employees would, no doubt, point to contracts that belie the claim that Bend’s tax base is largely to blame for its looming budget crisis. The city’s police union contract requires taxpayers to cover the 6 percent pickup, as does the contract covering building inspectors, utility workers and other people not involved in public safety. In this regard, neither contract is particularly surprising. But the contract with firefighters speaks volumes.

The contract, which runs through June 30, 2012, provides that in “the

event that the City’s payment of a six percent (6%) employee contribution must be discontinued due to a change in law, valid ballot measure, constitutional amendment, or final, nonappealable judgement from a court of competent jurisdiction ... the City shall increase by six percent (6%) the base salary rates for each classification in the salary schedules in lieu of the six percent pick up. This transition shall be done in a manner to assure continuous payment of either the six percent (6%) contribution or a six percent (6%) salary increase.”

The language seems to respond directly to the current budget crisis and the recommendations made by the Reset Cabinet. But, in fact, it has been in the firefighters’ contract for quite some time, according to Janice Grady, the city’s human resources manager.

But old or new, the contract language should ease the conscience of any taxpayer who decides to oppose attempts by city leaders to raise more money. It explicitly recognizes that somebody, sooner or later, is going to take aim at the pickup. With that in mind, it provides an escape hatch that prevents the city from saving money by eliminating, or even reducing, a perk that even Ted Kulongoski came to recognize as ruinous.

Of course, there is something city and union leaders can do if they want to earn the trust of taxpayers. Rid all contracts of their pickup protections, then eliminate the 6 percent pickup entirely. Until then, taxpayers are entirely justified in shrugging off the implicit criticism of city leaders and, to the extent possible, forcing Bend to live within its means. That is, after all, what the rest of us have to do.

$100M fix for nonproblem

W

e don’t know what’s in the water most Environmental Protection Agency officials drink, but Oregonians now know what’s not in the water hundreds of thousands of Portland residents drink: cryptosporidium. Nevertheless, the EPA apparently will require the city to build a $100 million plant to rid the nonexistent microorganism from the city’s Bull Run water source.

Over a 12-month period, the city tested 750 samples of water taken from Bull Run, according to The Oregonian. It found no cryptosporidium, a fact that ought to persuade EPA of-

ficials to relent on the treatment plant.

In fact, according to the paper, untreated Bull Run water contains even less cryptosporidium than the feds expect treated water to contain (0.75 critters per 10,000 liters).

Nonetheless, the director of the agency’s Seattle office told the city in October that “we cannot see how we could recommend to the State that a variance ... be granted.”

Since words alone aren’t adequate to capture the absurdity of the EPA’s position, we have nothing more to say on the subject.

Becoming a nation of second chances WASHINGTON — resident Obama’s unofficial pardon of Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick was a fleeting story highlighting a durable problem.

According to owner Jeffrey Lurie, Obama phoned to praise the Eagles for giving Vick a “second chance.” “He said,” according to Lurie, “ ‘It’s never a level playing field for prisoners when they get out of jail.’ ” That field is more level when trod by millionaire athletes, particularly those who throw 20 touchdowns in a season.

But though Vick is not representative, he is symbolic.

During the last few decades, America has engaged in a massive experiment in routine imprisonment.

From 1975 to 1999, by one estimate, the criminal justice system grew five times more punitive. A nation with 5 percent of the world’s population now has about a quarter of the world’s prison population — well over 2 million people.

It has had the intended effect. At least a portion of the sharp reduction in violent crime during the 1990s can be traced to the isolation of habitual offenders for longer periods. (The increased size and skill of police forces and the subsiding of the crack cocaine epidemic also played roles.)

But other consequences were unintended — the growth in single-parent households, in the number of children with one or both parents in prison, in the universality of the incarceration among some groups, particularly poorly educated African-American and Hispanic men. The incarceration rate for African-American male high school dropouts is nearly 50 times the national average. And the inevitable result of mass imprisonment is mass return.

About 700,000 former inmates come

P

MICHAEL GERSON back to communities each year, with considerably dimmer prospects than Michael Vick.

Criminal justice experts argue about the effect of race and class on rates of incarceration. But one racially charged fact is clear enough: If such incarceration rates prevailed among middle-class youth, it would be a crisis rather than a curiosity.

The most effective responses are also the most daunting. Crime prevention, in the long run, is youth development.

The alternative to cultivating the next generation is fearing it. Children, as one would expect, do better in life when they have not been poisoned by lead paint, abandoned by parents or betrayed by failed schools. There is promise in encouraging preschool attendance, providing mentors for the fatherless, demanding competent teachers, rewarding high school completion and making street gangs less attractive.

Such policies, while essential, don’t seem sufficiently urgent — like recommending exercise and vitamins for a cerebral hemorrhage. So states are searching for better ways to sort their criminal population — to distinguish between the predatory who require prison and the nonviolent who need something else. They are questioning mandatory minimums, experimenting with alternative sentencing and creating drug courts that give priority to treatment.

There is less creativity, but equal need, on the reintegration of ex-prisoners — providing transitional work programs,

addressing addiction and mental health issues, removing unnecessary barriers to employment and housing. It is never a level playing field for prisoners when they get out of jail.

Preventing crime and reducing recidivism are among the most difficult social policy challenges. Gains come slowly and tend to be incremental. But such efforts are also the practical demonstration of a defining national principle: While human beings are capable of great horrors that merit justice, they do not become trash to be thrown away.

Even the least sympathetic — heroin addicts and jailed criminals and gang members — remain part of the American community, the human community.

And their very lack of sympathy tests our commitment to that ideal.

Obama’s instinct on this issue is entirely correct — and he should run with it. The president has exhausted the nation with grand reforms. Perhaps instead of the reconstitution of American society, he could focus on the amelioration of some specific needs. Other presidents have done the same, to their great credit. George H.W. Bush pushed for the Americans with Disabilities Act, making our laws and sidewalks more welcoming. Bill Clinton expanded the earned-income tax credit; George W. Bush fought global AIDS. Guiding children away from crime and disrupting the cycle of recidivism fall into a similar category. When an important moral cause lacks a potent political constituency, only the president can unite the nation to address it.

It is the power, and burden, of executive leadership.

America is the nation of the second chance. Or at least it should be.

Corporations and the wealthy take advantage of the poor

By Kenneth Swipies Bulletin guest columnist

O

ne of the things I am getting tired of hearing from Lars Larson, Rush Limbaugh and their fellow whiners is the amount of money unemployment is costing the taxpayer.

Evidently, Larson feels that everyone on unemployment is sitting around the house while jobs are going to waste.

Most people know this is an irrational thought. However, if you listen to the pundits, there seem to be many who feel that way.

One thing they never whine about is the millions that CEOs have “earned” while firing their employees or bringing cheap labor over from India, China, etc. To them it is not a consideration as to how many jobs were lost to qualified American workers for the sake of cheaper wages. Then we have the illegal workers invited here by these same corporations. And while the same pundits do bewail the illegal situation, they seem to forget that it is yet another reason why

the American worker, especially the teenager just entering the market, cannot find a job.

They also seem to have an inordinate affection for the wealthy.

Just today, I was reading an article about how Deutsche Bank had been forced to admit to criminal wrongdoing and pay $553 million in penalties for setting up tax shelters for these same wealthy people who then reported $29 billion in fraudulent tax losses. And this is just one of a multitude of foreign banks, and even countries, that do the same thing.

Then they use distorted facts about how much tax the rich already pay while ignoring the reason why 47 percent of the work force does not pay taxes, and that reason is cheap and consistently declining wages. And they never talk about how most everything the poor receive eventually profits the rich. Where do these poor people spend their food stamps? Who owns the low-income housing? Who provides the energy as-

IN MY VIEW sistance paid for by LIHEAP? During the founding of this nation, Thomas Jefferson warned of the “aristocracy” of the banks and corporations.

He attempted to place federal constitutional limits on corporations. However, it was decided that the states were best-suited to do this. The states placed these limitations in their constitutions including limits on the life of a corporate charter (20 to 25 years); limits on the types and numbers of mergers; prohibitions against government assistance to corporations; and prohibitions against corporate involvement in politics. Unfortunately, while these limitations still exist they are ignored due to actions by the courts and the government, largely at the behest of the corporation. The Kelo and Citizens United cases exemplify this.

Over the past decades, we have seen the ignoring of this warning come to a point where small businesses cannot

survive. We see billions of dollars given to corporations and millionaires while the people themselves get little, and the tenet of free markets that allows for all individuals to pursue their dreams is destroyed. The housing crisis created by the government, bankers and the other lenders is the latest example of this. Now we see that these same wealthy people and investment firms are buying up the foreclosed homes to place on the market as rentals with even higher rents as a hedge against higher interest rates in the future.

And while the consumer continues to be forced to pay even higher prices for bread, meat and other food items, soybeans, wheat, corn, oats, sugar, coal, alfalfa and beef are exported to countries such as China and South Korea, driving up the prices in the U.S. even as the taxpayer subsidizes the growth of these products, thus adding to the cost paid by the American consumer. And we also see the country’s natural gas being sold to Mexico along with refined oil, driving

up energy costs.

Similarly, the stock market was intended to be a place where businesses could go to sell shares in their companies to raise capital. Now we have the “stock exchange,” where those shares are sold, and traded, not for capital, for profit.

When the pundits and the “experts” talk of free-market capitalism, they are not talking about the rights of the individual or economic freedom. They are talking about a form of socialism called “corporatism” or “crony capitalism.” So, when the pundits speak of returning to the foundations of this country, ask yourself, why do they never speak about the stranglehold on the economy, and the people, of the banks and the corporations, acting in collusion with the government, and the unions?

Patriotism by the wealthy and the corporations? Shared sacrifice? Not required.

Elizabeth ‘Betty’ Kelley

Sept. 6, 1946 - Jan. 1, 2011 Danny passed peacefully with his family at his bedside on January 1, 2011, at The Partners In Care Hospice Center in Bend, ending his struggle with melanoma cancer.

Danny was born in Lebanon, OR, graduated from Toledo High School in 1964, then served four Danny S. years in the Hughes US Navy. He returned to work at the Georgia Pacific Paper Mill where he had started working at the age of 16. He retired from Georgia Pacific in March 2004. He and his wife, Nickie, moved to La Pine where they easily made many new friends.

Fishing, cutting wood and enjoying his home and wildlife was contentment to Danny. Danny cherished his quiet and peaceful home in Ponderosa Pines, and enjoyed feeding the deer, quail and other wildlife abundant in his yard. He loved finding elk and was awed by their beauty. He fly fished many local lakes with his neighbor and buddy, Tom Gwiazdon.

They always told stories on each other and laughter prevailed in his life. Danny’s real enjoyment was cutting firewood! When his friend, Jon Vurik, finally got a woodstove, Danny was relentless in his pursuit to fill Jon’s yard. The sound of a chainsaw was music to his ears and he wielded his with a vengeance. He wasn’t particular on the length, informing Jon that is all burns! Vroom vroom!

Danny’s heart was a giving heart. Danny was always energized and ready to help those in need. He worked with his neighbors to supply wood and lend a helping hand in so many ways to many people he didn’t even know.

Danny believed in community and helped maintain 2 miles of an Adopt-A-Road section of Burgess. He was a very active member of CAG. He was proud of the organization and its members, and of the part he helped play in defeating the Local Rule, getting commissioners voted out, and Tony DeBone voted in!

Danny enjoyed the simple things in life and his days in La Pine. He considered himself very fortunate. Danny was loved and respected by all who knew him and he will be greatly missed.

Surviving Danny are his wife, Nickie; their son, Brad Hughes of Toledo, OR; and their daughter, Jaimie Hughes of Sunriver; his sister and brother-in-law, Jacque and Dennis Trachsel of La Pine; Aunt Louise and Uncle Stanton Hughes of Ozark, AL; and many nieces, nephews and cousins. He was preceded by his parents, Percy and Lila Hughes.

A Celebration of Danny’s Life will be held at the American Legion in La Pine, on Saturday, January 8, 2011, from 3:00 pm - 6:00 pm. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Humane Society would be greatly appreciated.

Also a celebration will follow in Toledo, OR, at a later date.

July 20, 1915 - Dec. 28, 2010 Betty Ellen Kelley peacefully passed away Dec. 28, 2010, at the age of 95, at her home in Tumalo.

As the story is told, Betty was born under a sheep herder's wagon near Murray, Utah, on the hot day of July 20, 1915. Betty, the third of five children, had an adventurous and full life.

She was raised in Emmett, Idaho on a dairy farm during the Great Depression. She met her husband, Shelton D. Kelley; they both sold radio advertisements and promoted big band events throughout the southern United States. After their travels they settled in Portland, OR, to continue Shelton's family business of real estate.

During WWII, Betty was a certified welder working in shipping yards in Portland.

Soon after the birth of her

only son, Patrick J. Kelley, they moved to Fort Rock, OR, and began a life of ranching and relocated the real estate office to downtown Bend, where it still exists today.

In the early 70s, Shelton and Betty downsized the ranch and moved to Tumalo. After Shelton's death in 1978, Betty continued ranching and changing irrigation by hand well into her late 80s.

Betty will be remembered as a mother, grandmother, rancher, landlord and a quick-witted, strong adventurous woman with a pioneer spirit. Her red pick-up truck "George" will be retired at her farm.

Betty is survived by her son, Patrick J. Kelley; daughter-in-law, Wendy L. Kelley; granddaughters, Kelsey and Katey Kelley; and sister, Dorothy Banner Brewington, all of Bend, OR.

Pat Zimmerman of Bend passed away Dec. 31, 2010, from complications of Parkinson's disease.

She was born in Eugene, Oregon, June 16, 1931, to Vuelta and Damon Scott.

She graduated from Cottage Grove High School in 1949, and Pat Zimmerman attended Washington State University.

Pat owned The 88-Cent Store and later operated Perry's Variety, both in Cottage Grove, Oregon. From 1983 to 2005, she and her husband, Leroy (Zimm) Zimmerman owned and operated Zimm's Hallmark, first in the Mountain View Mall and later in the Bend River Mall.

While in Cottage Grove, Pat was active in community and civic activities, and involved in her daughters' activities, often sewing for their projects. While Zimm was publisher of the Cottage Grove Sentinel, she developed special friendships with people in the newspaper business. Pat loved the Oregon coast and for 40 years enjoyed getaways to their beach cabin near Waldport.

She was also a member of Trinity Lutheran Church in Cottage Grove and Trinity Lutheran in Bend.

Survivors include her husband of 45 years, Leroy (Zimm), and four daughters, Berta Flora, Appleton, WI; Nancy Shoptaw (Ray), Eugene; Karen Soine (Mark), Everett, WA; Marsha New (Willis), Roseburg; as well as eight grandchildren and four great-grandchildren.

Remembrances in honor of Pat may be made to Trinity Lutheran Church, Bend.

Shoes Continued from C1 Bend does get more than just bragging rights for the win. Nike will contribute $4,000 in equipment and apparel to the high school’s athletic department, McHenry said. Athletic Director Craig Walker will be working with Nike to find products that the school can use.

“The main thing is, the kids did the hands on work, they know what it’s like, they can go out and ask somebody for a donation,” McHenry said. “It’s a great thing for them.”

A Nike employee came up with the idea for the ReuseA-Shoe program in 1990. The company developed ways to recycle old shoes. Different parts of the shoe are used to create different products and prevent old shoes from just winding up in the landfill.

According to a Nike website, it takes the midsole foam of 2,500 pairs of shoes to make an outdoor basketball court or the outsole rubber of 50,000 to 75,000 pairs of shoes to make a soccer field. More than 25 million pairs of shoes have been recycled in Nike’s shoe recycling program.

Musician Rafferty dies at 63 Los Angeles Times Gerry Rafferty, a Scottish singer and songwriter who had pop hits in the 1970s with “Baker Street” and “Stuck in the Middle With You,” which years later gained pop culture status after director Quentin Tarantino included it in the soundtrack for his 1992 film “Reservoir Dogs,” died Tuesday. He was 63.

Rafferty’s death was confirmed by his agent, Paul Charles, who told the Associated Press that Rafferty died after a long illness. The Guardian newspaper said he died at home in England with his daughter by his side.

Rafferty was a gifted musician but a reluctant star who delivered “concise, wry tales of love and ambition, inventively arranged” with a voice “that carries just the right amount of detachment,” Steve Pond wrote in 1979.

Torrey Continued from C1 “Her talent and generosity were immense and I will never forget her. She was intense, hilarious, inspiring and so very strong,” Bagwell said. “She instilled in me a renewed passion for music and for that I will be eternally grateful.”

Michael Gesme, a colleague of Torrey’s at COCC, said she was loved by her fellow instructors for her wit and dry humor, though she kept the extent of her illness to herself until recently.

Gesme said Torrey ultimately had to sit out the fall semester at COCC, but had called him just two days before classes began and said she was planning to disregard her doctor’s advice to stop teaching.

“She had been battling for a long time, and if you didn’t know it, you wouldn’t know,” Gesme said. “She would come in and smile and laugh and joke and be a great teacher to anybody who came and wanted to learn from her.”

Trish Sewell, a voice teacher, occasional student of Torrey’s, and fellow cast member in multiple productions, said she first met Torrey about 12 years ago, when she came to town to assist the Obsidian Opera Company’s production of “Betley.”

“She was passionate about singing and singing correctly, and she had a way of instilling that joy of singing in her students, whether she was teaching a voice class at the college to 18-year-old freshman, or she was teaching someone like me or even Sarah Mattox ... she’s very grounded, and makes music accessible,” Sewell said.

Torrey was both “brilliant and hysterical,” Sewell said, and uncommonly well-read — she recalled visiting with Torrey one Christmas, and being stunned by her extensive knowledge of the Middle Ages in the British Isles.

People were drawn to Torrey, Sewell said, and a visitor to her home almost always encountered a stream of other friends and acquaintances coming and going.

“I don’t think it was just over the last few years as her cancer got worse, that was just Monica and Dee, their door was always open, and people loved to hang out with them.”

Audit: Early prison releases saved Oregon $25 million SALEM — A new state audit says the “earned time” early release program for Oregon prison inmates saved an estimated $25 million in the 2009 fiscal year.

The audit by the Oregon Secretary of State’s office also called for some improvements in the Department of Corrections program that allows time off for good behavior, the Statesman Journal reported.

Auditors said corrections officials should clarify earned-time rules, and review procedures for assigning inmates to rehabilitation programs and disciplining them before release.

Corrections Director Max Williams says his agency agreed with most of the audit findings.

“The Department welcomes the new perspective and information provided by the Secretary of State audit team and acknowledges it is both prudent and necessary to routinely review all rules, policies, procedures and practices,” Williams wrote in a Dec. 27 letter

to Secretary of State Kate Brown.

For more than 20 years, state law has allowed prisoners to get out of prison early for good behavior.

Varied assessments But reducing prison sentences has drawn criticism from crimevictim advocates while being praised by groups seeking changes in sentencing systems.

The 2009 Legislature triggered controversy by increasing earned time sentence reductions from 20 percent to 30 percent.

Law enforcement leaders and crime-victim advocates said the new approach clogged courts with resentencing hearings, reopened wounds for crime victims and hastened prison departures for thousands of criminals.

Early last year, lawmakers suspended the extra 10 percent earned-time provision for convicts until July 2011 but allowed prisoners to remain eligible for 20 percent sentence reductions.

At the same time, lawmakers directed the secretary of state to conduct an audit to evaluate “the actual and potential impacts” of the earned-time program and assess compliance with rules and statutes in administering the program.

Auditors examined files for a sample of 70 inmates released in 2009 and found that the department’s practices were “generally consistent” with earned- time statutes and rules.

One area of concern was awarding earned time when inmates do not participate in mandated programs such as substance abuse treatment.

THE BULLETIN • WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 5, 2011

NFL Raiders don’t pick up Cable’s option ALAMEDA, Calif. — The Oakland Raiders informed coach Tom Cable on Tuesday that they will not bring him back as coach next season even though he led them to their best record in eight years this seaTom Cable son.

The Raiders announced their decision not to exercise a two-year, $5 million option on Cable’s contract for 2011 and ’12, two days after wrapping up an 8-8 season that gave Oakland its first non-losing record since winning the 2002 AFC championship.

“Coach Cable was informed the club would not be exercising its option for the 2011 season, and that he’s free to seek employment elsewhere,” his agent, Don Yee, said in an e-mail.

Cable had wide support from his players, who credited him with helping make the team a contender in the AFC West this season after a run of seven straight years of at least 11 losses.

Organizers change date for 2011 PPP The annual Central Oregon multisport race will be held on May 21, instead of May 14 Bulletin staff report The date of the 2011 U.S. Bank Pole Pedal Paddle has been changed, event organizers announced Tuesday.

Originally scheduled for May 14, the 35th annual PPP will take place instead on May 21. According to a press release from the Mt. Bachelor Sports Education

Foundation, which stages the PPP, the date for this year’s race was changed in part to keep with the event’s history of being held on the third Saturday in May. The release also cited as a reason for the change of dates a conflict with a regional track meet in Bend involving local high schools and scheduled for May 14.

The Kids’ Mini Pole Pedal Paddle,

originally scheduled for May 15, has also been moved by one week, to Sunday, May 22.

Online registration for the PPP — a multisport race from Mount Bachelor to Bend that includes alpine and nordic skiing, cycling, running, paddling and sprinting — is expected to be available starting Feb. 1 at the new race website, www.pppbend.

Bend High rolls past Crook County, 75-48 Bears improve to 9-2 behind balanced attack The Bulletin

RENTON, Wash. — Seahawks quarterbacks Matt Hasselbeck and Charlie Whitehurst split reps in Seattle’s first practice in preparation for its NFC playoff game against New Orleans.

Coach Pete Carroll had said on Monday that the duo would split reps early in the week before a decision was made on who the starter would be for Saturday’s game. Seattle does not have to submit an official practice participation today to the league until Wednesday.

Whitehurst started and helped lead Seattle to a 16-6 win over St. Louis last Sunday that wrapped up the NFC West title. Hasselbeck sat out that game with a hip strain suffered a week earlier against Tampa Bay. Also on Tuesday, the Seahawks placed tight end Chris Baker and guard Chester Pitts on season-ending injured reserve.

INSIDE COLLEGE FOOTBALL Ohio State survives Sugar Bowl scare Buckeyes hold off Arkansas comeback to win, see Page D4

Four games into his senior season, Bend High forward Joey Apodaca is finally starting to mesh with his Lava Bear teammates.

Not that Bend High needed the extra help.

Complementing the Lava Bears’ athletic backcourt, the 6-foot-3-inch Apodaca controlled the paint Tuesday night as Bend blew out Crook County 75-48 in Intermountain Hybrid boys basketball action and improved to 9-2.

Apodaca, who missed the second half of his junior season and the first seven games of the 2010-11 campaign with a dislocated left kneecap, scored 13 points and ran the pick-and-roll to perfection with Lava Bear guards Hayden Crook and Ty Friesen against the Cowboys.

Crook led all scorers Tuesday night with 16 points, and Bend wing Taylor Raterman added 14.

“He gives us a post presence,” Lava Bear coach Don Hayes said about Apodaca.

“And he’s the most unselfish player on our team. If he sees a one-on-on opportunity he’ll take a shot. If he doesn’t he’ll give (the ball) up.”

Bend turned up the pressure early, converting an 8-3 advantage into a 23-7 lead by the end of the first quarter. Five different Lava Bears scored as Bend High went on a 15-3 run midway through the opening period, robbing the game of any drama.

“It’s not a fluke they’re 92,” Crook County coach Jeff Lowenbach said about the Bears. “They play well together. … They put us in a hole we weren’t able to climb out of.”

Staying on the course is not an easy task Local golfers struggle to play the game they love in a struggling economy

Bend High’s Taylor Raterman scores two of his 14 points past the defense of Crook County’s Travis Bartels during Tuesday night’s game at Bend High School.

Bend resident Pete Stoefen actually played more golf in 2010 than he had in years.

With his 22-year-old son showing an increased interest in golf of late, Stoefen, who owns a physician placement service in Bend, finds the sport as a good way to spend time with family.

But because he is often paying for two greens fees, the 65-yearold Stoefen rarely plays his favorite course. Though Lost Tracks Golf Club is just minutes from Stoefen’s southwest Bend home, an 18-hole round can cost more than $80 per golfer, including cart, to play in the peak summer months.

Instead, like a lot of Central Oregon golfers in these tough economic times, he has become a golfing nomad in search of the best deal.

“I check the paper to see who has got a 3 o’clock or 1 o’clock (p.m.) reduced-rate kind of deal,” Stoefen says. “We do that now.

And that has given us a chance to play some courses we haven’t before.”

Stoefen has found deals for less than $40 a round at other area golf courses such as Juniper Golf Course in Redmond and Widgi Creek Golf Club in Bend, he says.

And he occasionally takes advantage of the $20 nine-hole rate offered at Bend’s Old Back Nine at Mountain High, a public nine-hole course in south Bend.

“I’ve seen guys out there pushing baby carriages,” Stoefen says of the Old Back Nine. “Families go out there. It’s a twosome, but there are about eight people wandering around on the fairway. It’s great for the locals, and it’s great for people who are just starting.”

Oregon, Auburn practice to different soundtracks

PHOENIX — The lineman-sized guy with the long shorts and “O” on his hat gave the first indication of the frenetic pace behind the gate.

“You better hurry — you’ve got 10 minutes,” he said. “The clock is ticking.”

He wasn’t kidding.

With Wolfmother’s “Joker And The Thief” blaring from massive speakers near midfield, Oregon’s players opened Tuesday’s practice by forming lines and clapping to the beat. About the time the song hit the first chorus, the second-ranked Ducks sprinted to every corner of the field, breaking into positional groups for a series of quick-hitting drills, bodies and balls flying all over the north Phoenix high school field.

Even in practice, a month after their last game, no less, these Ducks can fly.

Next up • BCS National Championship, Oregon vs. Auburn • When: Jan. 10, 5:30 p.m.

• TV: ESPN

“It’s been unbelievable,” Oregon defensive tackle Brandon Bair said. “We haven’t missed a beat.”

At a Scottsdale community college nearly 20 miles away, Auburn (13-0) was going through its first practice in the desert before Monday’s BCS national title game at University of Phoenix Stadium.

The soundtrack was different, the intensity the same.

NHL ROUNDUP

Lightning get past Caps in OT The Associated Press WASHINGTON — Packing up after a perfect debut for the Tampa Bay Lightning, Dwayne Roloson slid his orange-and-blue goalie mask with the insignia of his former club, the New York Islanders, into a black bag.

The 41-year-old Roloson’s gear was old Tuesday night.

His play was good as new.

Three days after being acquired from the Islanders, Roloson made 34 saves to stifle Alex Ovechkin and the rest of the Capitals, and Martin St. Louis scored 2:54 into overtime, leading Tampa Bay to a 1-0 victory over Washington that broke the teams’ tie for the Southeast Division lead.

“I’m happy for him, because when you start well, it makes it a lot easier after,” Lightning coach Guy Boucher said. “You put pressure on yourself because you want your teammates to like you, and you want people to see what you can do. So he’s done it today. That’s a great relief for him.”

St. Louis poked a rebound past Semyon Varlamov to end Washington’s three-game winning streak.

The Capitals hadn’t lost a 1-0 game since March 2, 2004, against Florida — before Ovechkin entered the NHL — and this was the first 1-0 overtime loss in franchise history.

No one on the ice Tuesday took more shots than Ovechkin’s eight, and Roloson stopped them all.

“He made unbelievable saves a couple times,” said Ovechkin, who has only four goals in his past 23 games.

The Lightning have won nine of 11 and moved into a tie with Philadelphia and Pittsburgh atop the Eastern Conference. Tampa Bay plays at Pittsburgh on Wednesday, and Boucher had said he would wait until after Tuesday’s game to pick his starting goalie for that game.

Not too tough a call, turned out, thanks to Roloson’s performance.

“I think I’ll decide right now, how’s that?” Boucher said with a little laugh. “Yeah, so he’s in net tomorrow.”

After Edmonton rallied from a 3-1 deficit to tie the game late, Detroit got a break when Bertuzzi’s shot banked in off the skate of defenseman Ladislav Smid with 2:50 left. The Red Wings, who had dropped two straight, sealed the win 44 seconds later on Darren Helm’s goal.

MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL ROUNDUP

No. 2 Ohio State rallies past Iowa to stay undefeated The Associated Press IOWA CITY, Iowa — Freshman Jared Sullinger had 24 points and 12 rebounds and No. 2 Ohio State rallied to overtake Iowa 73-68 on Tuesday night.

Jon Diebler added 14 points for the Buckeyes (15-0, 2-0 Big Ten), who have won five straight over the Hawkeyes for the first time in school history.

Iowa cut Ohio State’s 13-point lead to 71-68 on Zach McCabe’s 3pointer with 24 seconds left. But Aaron Craft made two free throws and forced a turnover to put the up-

set-minded Hawkeyes away.

Ohio State had some trouble early with Iowa (7-7, 0-2) and trailed 3529 at halftime. But the Buckeyes opened the second half with a 29-10 run — then hung on as the Hawkeyes made one final push.

Freshman Melsahn Basabe had a career-high 22 points, 13 rebounds and six blocks for the Hawkeyes, the only team in the conference with a .500 record.

Also on Tuesday: No. 5 Pittsburgh . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 83 Providence. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 79 PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Gary Mc-

Ghee scored all of his 13 points in the second half, grabbing a key rebound and making two free throws with 18 seconds left to lead Pittsburgh. Gilbert Brown scored 17 points in the first half, but ran into foul trouble in the second and finished with 19 for the Panthers (14-1, 2-0 Big East).

No. 14 Notre Dame . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 73 No. 8 Connecticut. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 70 SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Ben Hansbrough scored 21 points and Notre Dame survived a late surge for the win. Kemba Walker, averaging 26.7 points entering the game, scored 19 to lead Connecticut (11-2,

1-2 Big East) but had his string of 11 straight games with at least 20 points snapped.

No. 12 Texas. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 79 Arkansas . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 46 AUSTIN, Texas — Jordan Hamilton scored 16 points to lead Texas.

Hamilton led four Longhorns (122) in double figures as freshman Tristan Thompson added 14 points and Gary Johnson and Jai Lucas had 13 each. The 33 points were the greatest margin of victory by Texas in the 153 meetings of the schools, eclipsing the previous high of 24 points during 1971-72.

Portland Trail Blazers point guard Patrick Mills drives past Dallas Mavericks power forward Brian Cardinal during the first half of Tuesday’s game in Dallas.

Mavericks rally to defeat Blazers The Associated Press DALLAS — Jason Terry found his shooting touch just in time for the Dallas Mavericks.

Terry missed eight of his first 11 fieldgoal attempts before heating up down the stretch, scoring 12 of his 18 points in the fourth quarter to lead the injury-depleted Mavericks to an 84-81 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday night.

Without injured starters Dirk Nowitzki and Caron Butler, the Mavericks were desperate for offense, and Terry went five for eight from the floor in the fourth quarter, knocking down both of his 3point tries.

“I always think the next one is going in,” said Terry, who moves from sixth man to starter in place of Butler.

DeShawn Stevenson also had 18 points, and Tyson Chandler added 14 points and 13 rebounds for the Mavericks, who had lost three of four.

LaMarcus Aldridge had 28 points and 10 rebounds and Marcus Camby contributed 10 points and matched a season high with 20 rebounds for Portland.

Earlier in the day, the team announced that Butler will miss the rest of the season following surgery Tuesday to repair a torn tendon in his right knee.

Butler was Dallas’ No. 3 scorer, averaging 14 points and 4.1 rebounds in almost 30 minutes per game. He was an inside-out force the Mavs relied on to draw defenses away from Nowitzki.

The team’s top scorer at 24.1 points per game, Nowitzki missed his fifth straight game with a sprained right knee and is day-to-day.

Terry’s 20-footer with 1:23 left gave Dallas the lead for good at 79-77.

Aldridge made one of two free throws, then Stevenson drained a 3-pointer with 51.9 seconds remaining for an 82-78 edge.

Wes Matthews banked in a 3 from the top of the key with 33.9 seconds left, but Terry nailed a 20-footer with 12.9 seconds remaining to pad Dallas’ lead to 84-81.

“The fourth quarter is (Terry’s) show,” Chandler said. “He’s done it over and over. He’s so clutch, so much fun to watch.”

Aldridge’s 3-point attempt at the buzzer was long, and the Trail Blazers lost to the Mavs for the 21st time in the last 26 meetings. “(The Mavericks) made big shots, we missed big shots,” Portland coach Nate McMillan said. “They got big boards, we gave up big boards. When it’s winning time, you have to make those plays.”

Minus two of his stars, Mavericks coach Rick Carlisle said defense is more important than ever for his team. Portland went 33 for 79 from the floor, including four for 16 on 3-pointers.

“That’s one thing we can do is get better defensively,” Carlisle said. “We battled and played a gritty game. That’s what we have to do.”

The Blazers appeared on the verge of taking control when Aldridge made a jump hook, then converted two free

throws with 4:27 to play, extending the lead to 77-72.

But Chandler scored inside and Terry swished a 3-pointer from the left corner to pull Dallas into a tie at 77 with 2:34 remaining.

Stevenson scored nine during the third quarter, including a pair of 3-pointers, and Dallas carried a 62-60 advantage into the final quarter.

Stevenson hit three free throws with 0.3 seconds left in the second quarter after he was fouled by Matthews on a 3-pointer, giving Dallas a 43-40 edge at halftime.

• Saints place RB Ivory on IR: Rookie running back Chris Ivory has been placed on injured reserve by the New Orleans Saints with a left foot injury. Ivory, the team’s leading rusher with 716 yards, was injured in Sunday’s season finale.

He is an undrafted player from Tiffin University. To replace Ivory, the Saints signed DeShawn Wynn on Tuesday. Wynn returns to the Saints after first signing with the team as a free agent in August. He played on special teams in four games this season before being waived in October. Wynn also played for San Francisco this year before being cut last month.

• 49ers promote Baalke to GM: Trent Baalke was promoted to general manager of the San Francisco 49ers on Tuesday night. Baalke was formally hired as the team’s new GM, though he had largely been considered the front-runner for about a week. He will take on more responsibility from his most recent post as vice president of player personnel, including taking the lead on finding a new coach.

With Baalke in place, the Niners are in position to make a serious run at Stanford coach Jim Harbaugh — perhaps starting as soon as this morning, though it is believed the sides have already had contact.

• Lewis will stay as Bengals: Cincinnati Bengals coach Marvin Lewis agreed to an unspecified contract extension on Tuesday that will make him the longest-tenured coach in club history. Owner Mike Brown agreed to changes in the coaching staff and the roster as part of a deal that left both sides comfortable.

The Bengals are coming off a 4-12 season and have had only two winning records in the last 20 years — both under Lewis, who is 60-69-1 in eight seasons, including losses in both playoff appearances.

• Lott, Madden on new safety panel: Hall of Famers Ronnie Lott and John Madden will co-chair an NFL panel aimed at improving player safety. Commissioner Roger Goodell announced the NFL Player Safety Advisory Panel on Tuesday.

It will consist of former NFL players, coaches and general managers and make recommendations to Goodell on various safety issues.

• Rodriguez, Michigan to meet today: Michigan and Rich Rodriguez will meet again today to discuss the embattled football coach’s future, The Associated Press has learned.A person familiar with the situation told the AP that Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon has not decided whether to fire Rodriguez, who’s 15-22 with college football’s winningest program. Defensive back James Rogers said a Tuesday night players meeting was postponed until this afternoon; Rodriguez traditionally holds the meeting the night before classes resume each semester. Michigan officials declined comment amid reports that Rodriguez had already been fired.

• Jets deem suit ‘without merit’: The New York Jets say a lawsuit filed against them and Brett Favre by two massage therapists is “completely without merit,” and the team had not been aware of the accusations. Christina Scavo and Shannon O’Toole contend in a lawsuit filed Monday they were subjected to sexual harassment and job discrimination. They are seeking unspecified damages from Favre, the Jets and a team massage coordinator, saying they lost their part-time jobs after complaining about sexually suggestive text messages from the 41-year-old quarterback while he was with the team in 2008.

Baseball • Mariners sign catcher: Miguel Olivo and the Seattle Mariners have completed a $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. 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 careerbest .269 with 14 homers and 58 RBIs for Colorado.

Nats, LaRoche agree to deal: A person familiar with the negotiations tells The Associated Press that the Washington

Nationals and free-agent first baseman Adam LaRoche have agreed to a two-year contract, pending a physical. LaRoche would fill a big need for the Nationals, who lost first baseman and cleanup hitter Adam Dunn to the Chicago White Sox via free agency this offseason. LaRoche hit .261 with 25 homers and a career-high 100 RBIs for Arizona last season.

• Beltre nearing agreement with Rangers: All-Star third baseman Adrian Beltre and the AL champion Texas Rangers are nearing agreement on a contract, a person familiar with the negotiations told the Associated Press on Tuesday. Beltre became a free agent after turning down a $10 million player option to stay with Boston. A two-time Gold Glove winner, Beltre hit .321 with 49 doubles, 28 homers and 102 RBIs in 154 games in his only season with Red Sox. He was an All-Star for the first time in his 13-season career.

Hockey • Crosby leads NHL All-Star fan voting: Pittsburgh Penidney Crosby is the top vote-getter for the NHL All-Star Game.

The NHL also announced Tuesday leading vote-getters Evgeni Malkin, Kris Letang and Marc-Andre Fleury of the Pittsburgh Penguins and Jonathan Toews and Duncan Keith of the Chicago Blackhawks. The rest of the 42 All-Stars will be revealed on Jan. 11. They will nominate captains and alternates, who will then choose teams in a draft on Jan. 28.

The All-Star game is Jan. 30 in Raleigh, N.C. The Penguins Crosby received 635,509 total votes, Toews got 407,676 and Malkin received 376,887.

Winter sports • Schild claims 4th WCup slalom win, Vonn skis out: Marlies Schild of Austria claimed her fourth World Cup slalom victory of the season on Tuesday in Zagreb, Croatia, while Lindsey Vonn slid off course in foggy conditions during the opening run. Schild had a flawless second run to finish in a combined time of 2 minutes, 1.80 seconds. Olympic champion Maria Riesch of Germany was 0.75 seconds back and extended her lead over Vonn in the overall World Cup standings to 186 points.

Manuela Moelgg of Italy was third. American Sarah Schleper finished eighth and was the top U.S. finisher.

• Bradford earns victories in women’s 500 and 1,000: Rebekah Bradford’s time of 38.48 gave her a comfortable margin of victory Tuesday in the 500 and she sailed to another solid win in the 1,000 with a time of 1:16.79 at the U.S. sprint speedskating championships in Kearns, Utah. Shani Davis picked up another victory with a time of 1:08.18 in the men’s 1,000, beating Jonathon Kuck’s personal best of 1:09.25.

Auto racing • Coma wins stage at Dakar Rally: Spanish rider Marc Coma won the third stage of the Dakar Rally on Tuesday in Argentina, cutting into the overall lead in the bike category of defending champion Cyril Despres of France. Coma, the 2009 champion, finished the stage in northern Argentina on a KTM in 4 hours, 18 minutes, 55 seconds — 2:21 ahead of Despres. That left Despres, the 2010 champion, with only a 14-second lead going into today, when the rally crosses into Chile. In cars, Nasser AlAttiyah of Qatar took the stage in 3:42:20, edging Volkswagen teammate Carlos Sainz by 25 seconds. Defending champion Sainz kept the overall lead, 3:34 ahead of Al-Attiyah and 4:19 in front of Stephane Peterhansel.

Tennis • Federer wins at Qatar Open: Roger Federer added to his repertoire of throughthe-legs winners on his way to beating Dutch qualifier Thomas Schoorel 7-6 (3), 6-3 at the Qatar Open in his first official match of the season. Topranked Rafael Nadal also advanced, beating Karol Beck 63, 6-0. After a sluggish first set, the No. 2-ranked Swiss hit his stride in the second. Leading 5-2 and faced with a ball that changed direction after clipping the top of the net, Federer flicked it through his legs for a clean winner into the corner.

FOOTBALL

Ohio State holds off Arkansas to win Sugar Bowl

By Paul Newberry The Associated Press

Rob Kerr / The Bulletin

Crook County’s Peyton Seaquist recovers and passes after gathering a loose ball in the second quarter of Tuesday night’s game against Bend at Bend High School.

Bend Continued from D1 While Raterman paced Bend early — he scored 11 of his 14 in the first quarter — Apodaca carried the Bears into halftime. He scored seven points in the second quarter, including Bend High’s final five points of the half.

“It took a little while to get back (in sync with the team),” Apodaca said. “But my team-

mates found me early tonight off a lot of screens. I feel like this was my best game of the season so far.”

Brandon Gomes led the Cowboys (5-4) with 13 points while Peyton Seaquist added 12, and Travis Bartels contributed 11.

Crook County, which plays a nonconference game at Madras on Thursday, struggled shooting from the outside Tuesday and trailed by as many as 30 points in the second half.

“For most of the year we’ve been talking about playing defense,” Hayes said, whose team opens up Class 5A Intermountain Conference play on Friday with a game at Summit. “I think the guys are starting to buy into it.”

The Lava Bears’ pressure defense translated into multiple transition baskets against the Cowboys. For the fourth consecutive game this season Bend scored more than 70 points.

Tuesday’s rout came on the heels of the Bears’ 75-40 victory over Sandy on Thursday in the consolation round of the Summit Holiday Tournament.

“We can trade baskets with people all day, but you can’t win games like that,” Hayes said.

“But these last two games I’ve really liked our defense.”

PREP ROUNDUP

NEW ORLEANS — Terrelle Pryor and four of his teammates won’t be able to play another game for Ohio State until October.

They’ll have some good memories to tide them over during the long layoff.

Pryor threw two touchdown passes, helping the No. 6 Buckeyes build a big lead, and Solomon Thomas made an interception with 58 seconds remaining to seal Ohio State’s first postseason win against a Southeastern Conference school, 3126 over No. 8 Arkansas in the Sugar Bowl on Tuesday night.

The Razorbacks had a chance to pull off an improbable comeback when they blocked a punt with the clock winding down. Two plays later, Thomas surprised Ryan Mallett by dropping into coverage, and Arkansas’ star quarterback threw the ball right to the 255-pound defensive end.

“That was the second interception of my whole life,” Thomas yelled on the field as his teammates celebrated around him. “It feels great.”

Pryor didn’t look so great at the end, limping off the field with a sprained right ankle.

But he turned in his second straight MVP performance in a bowl, following up last year’s Rose Bowl award with a teamleading 115 yards rushing.

Pryor and Thomas were among five Ohio State juniors given five-game suspensions by the NCAA for selling memorabilia and getting discounted tattoos. But they don’t have to start serving their penalties until next season, giving them

time to come up big for the Buckeyes in the Big Easy.

A thank-you note to the governing body might be in order.

The group of suspended players also included Dan Herron and DeVier Posey, who each scored a touchdown, as well as starting left tackle Mike Adams.

“Their contributions were important,” Ohio State coach Jim Tressel acknowledged.

“They’re great kids. And I’m looking forward. ... We’ve got a plan. And if we’ll stick with our plan, we’ll be fine.”

Tressel said all five players pledged to return for their seniors seasons to serve their suspensions. Pryor reiterated that he plans to follow through on his vow.

“I don’t think I’m ready for the NFL,” the quarterback said.

“I got a lot of learning to do and better decision-making to make, on and off the field.”

The Buckeyes (12-1) had lost their previous nine postseason meetings against the SEC. They finally ended the slide and earned some respect for the Big Ten after a dismal performance on New Year’s Day, when the league went 0-5 — including three losses to SEC schools.

Rallying from a 31-13 deficit late in the third quarter, Arkansas (10-3) had a chance to stun the Buckeyes when Colton Miles-Nash leaped over two linemen to block a punt, putting the Razorbacks at the Ohio State 18 with 1:09 remaining.

It looked as though Julian Horton could’ve scooped up the ball and run for the go-ahead score, but he wound up just falling on it. That turned out to be costly.

Bend defeats Crook County in girls basketball, improves to 9-2 New rules for overtime

Bulletin staff report

PRINEVILLE — Exploiting its height advantage over Crook County, Bend High topped the Cowgirls 43-38 on Tuesday night in Intermountain Hybrid girls basketball play.

Trailing 21-20 at halftime, the Lava Bears outscored Crook County 23-17 after the break to improve to 9-2.

“Their height was an issue in the third (quarter),” noted Crook County coach Dave Johnson.

While the Cowgirls (4-4) struggled to put up seven points in the third quarter, Bend — behind the strong play of 6-foot-1-inch post Mekayla Isaak — recorded 15 points to take a lead it never relinquished.

Isaak scored a game-high 13 points for the Lava Bears. Danni Severance led Crook County with 11 points.

Meagan McReynolds scored 14 points and Ryan Fogel added 13 for La Pine. The Hawks (3-9) have lost four games in a row and will host Crook County on Friday.

Harper ended with a game-high 26 points and Pies posted 21 for the Panthers. Mountain View led by eight in the third quarter, 41-33, but Redmond shot 59 percent from the floor in the second half to rally. The other players in double digits were Mountain View’s James Reid with 12 and Redmond’s Mitch Dahlen with 10. “Both teams played well,” said Reid. “Good, hard-fought ball game.” The Cougars (7-4) and Panthers (5-5) are both off until next Tuesday when Moun-

Manley scored 12 of his 16 on threepoint shots and Jaron Kuehn added eight for the Hawks. “They rebounded the ball better than we did,” said La Pine coach Kyle Kalmbach. The Hawks (4-8) play at Crook County on Friday.

begin in NFL playoffs

By Mark Maske The Washington Post

This weekend’s NFL playoff games will be the first in which the league’s new postseason rules for overtime are eligible for use, and those on either side of the debate over the altered format admit they might not know how well it works until it is implemented.

The new system, which owners approved by a 28-4 vote in March, eliminates the possibility of a team winning with a field goal on the opening possession of overtime.

The team that gets the ball first in overtime can win the game by scoring a touchdown.

If that team gets a field goal, its opponent gets a possession with a chance to tie the score with a field goal or win it with a touchdown. If that team gets a tying field goal, the game proceeds on a sudden-death basis. If neither team scores on its first possession of overtime, the game is sudden death from there.

“I don’t know if I’d say I’m eager” to see the new format utilized, said Atlanta Falcons president Rich McKay, co-chairman of the NFL’s competition committee. “I guess I would say I am interested to see if there are any strategic changes that we didn’t anticipate. We’ll need a few years to get a large enough sample. I don’t think we’ll be able to say after just a game or two. Who knows, we might not even have one this year.”

One of the teams that voted against the proposal, the Baltimore Ravens, plays a first-round AFC playoff game Sunday at Kansas City.

“I am a proponent,” New York Giants co-owner John Mara said. “I probably would have been comfortable using it in the regular season as well. But this was the best possible solution. It was a compromise so the most possible people could be comfortable with it. I am anxious to see how it works.”

Owners approved the measure for postseason play only, at least for now. Regular-season overtime games continue to use the format in which a coin flip determines which team gets possession first and the first team to score any points wins.

Not everyone is a fan.

“I don’t know why in the world you’d change something for the playoffs,” former NFL coach Dan Reeves said. “You play 16 games under one rule, then change for the playoffs? I think the rule we have is probably a better rule. Even if you don’t get the ball first, you have a chance to play defense and get the ball back. I worry about injuries if you’re making the game longer. Fatigue is what creates injuries. It’s already been a long season.”

Competition committee members said the change was necessary because a growing percentage of overtime games were being won by the team that won the coin flip, in part because of improved field-goal accuracy.

Even so, players expressed opposition to the proposal during a meeting among competition committee members and representatives of the players at last year’s NFL scouting combine.

Some coaches also were critical after the owners’ vote in March was taken without the coaches present.

A coach potentially now faces a decision about whether to keep his offense on the field for a fourth-down gamble or kick a field goal on the opening possession of overtime, knowing the other team gets a possession after a field goal. There also has been some talk that a coach might opt, especially in certain weather conditions, to put his team on defense first upon winning the overtime coin toss, knowing he could allow a field goal and still be assured of a possession to try to tie or win.

The NFL has had 27 overtime postseason games since 1958, including two in last season’s playoffs. The Arizona Cardinals beat the Green Bay Packers last January with a defensive touchdown after losing the overtime coin flip. The New Orleans Saints beat the Minnesota Vikings in last season’s NFC title game with a field goal on the opening possession of overtime after winning the coin toss.

Yet the Vikings voted against the overtime proposal in March along with the Ravens, the Buffalo Bills and the Cincinnati Bengals.

Defenses for Oregon, Auburn sit in the shadow of high-powered offenses

By Andy Bitter McClatchy-Tribune News Service

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. — From the moment the BCS announced Auburn and Oregon would play for the national championship, all the talk has been about the offenses, and rightfully so.

Auburn’s Cam Newton won the Heisman Trophy. Oregon’s LaMichael James led the nation in rushing. Both teams’ offensive masterminds, Gus Malzahn and Chip Kelly, orchestrate eye-catching, up-tempo schemes that have a propensity for scoring points.

But the mostly forgotten defenses hope to have their say before all is said and done next Monday.

“At the end of the day, we just settle it in between the white lines,” Auburn linebacker Josh Bynes said. “That’s all that matters.”

While all the focus is on who will score more points, it could be a case in which one team’s defense — or both — rises to the occasion.

“You never know,” Kelly said.

“You get into this, and the game gets analyzed so much — it’s going to be a shootout, it’s going to be a defensive struggle, it’s going to be this — you never know. Sometimes it turns into a game for the ages and exactly what people said. Other times the final score’s 17-14 and no one saw it coming.”

Auburn’s defense has long been criticized as not national championship caliber, which statistics seem to back up. The Tigers rank 55th nationally in total defense (362.2 ypg) and 54th in scoring (24.5 ppg).

In the BCS era, the team that’s claimed the crystal trophy has never allowed more than 320.9 yards per game (Ohio State in 2002) or given up more than 19.9 points per game (LSU in 2007).

Auburn defensive coordinator Ted Roof doesn’t care what the numbers say.

“I could spin statistics to make things look one way. Somebody else could spin them to look another way,” Roof said. “This is a bottom-line business. The bottom line is that we have to do what we have to do to win football games. Up to this point, we’ve done that.”

The Tigers, despite their defensive deficiencies, have shown progress.

After being torched by Alabama in the first half, they allowed only 62 yards and three points in the second half of a 28-27 win. In the SEC cham-

Oregon coach Chip Kelly leads his players during practice Tuesday in Phoenix. Oregon’s offense under Kelly gets a lot of praise around college football, while Oregon’s defense doesn’t get as much respect.

“You never know. You get into this, and the game gets analyzed so much — it’s going to be a shootout, it’s going to be a defensive struggle, it’s going to be this — you never know. Sometimes it turns into a game for the ages and exactly what people said.

Other times the final score’s 17-14 and no one saw it coming.”

— Oregon coach Chip Kelly, on the BCS national title game

pionship game, Auburn gave up three points in the second half of a 56-17 win against South Carolina.

“We’ve had a lot of games in the first half that are all over the place, because offenses this year, we’ll game plan against (and) they kind of got away from the tendencies they love to run,” Bynes said. “When we figure out what they’re doing in the first half, the second half we go out there and just be dominant.”

Oregon’s defense, meanwhile, hasn’t gotten nearly its due. Coordinated by Nick Aliotti, a Broyles Award candidate for assistant coach of the year, the Ducks rank 25th nationally in total defense (332.6 ypg) and 12th in scoring (18.4 ppg).

Oregon had five players make the all-Pac-10 teams, led by a pair of firstteamers, linebacker Casey Matthews and cornerback Talmadge Jackson.

They’re not passive. Malzahn said

the Ducks blitz as much as any team Auburn has faced this year, trying to confuse offenses by coming from different angles. They’re ballhawks too, having forced 35 turnovers (20 interceptions, 15 fumbles recovered), second most in the nation.

“They don’t sit back,” Malzahn said. “They come after you.”

Auburn coaches caution not to draw too many conclusions based on size. Yes, the Tigers’ offensive line outweighs Oregon’s undersized defensive front by nearly 40 to 50 pounds a man.

There’s a tradeoff, though.

“A guy who’s 270, quick, strong, explosive and plays hard, in a lot of ways, is better than a guy that’s 300 and can’t play as hard as long, or doesn’t have the quickness or lateral movement, that sort of thing,” Auburn offensive line coach Jeff Grimes said.

“In no way whatsoever do I see that as a sort of deficiency in their defense.”

Golfers Continued from D1 The Old Back Nine offers little resemblance to the elite Central Oregon golf courses, but it affords Stoefen a chance to play.

Bargain hunting Stoefen’s search for good deals is similar to the stories of many of the recreational golfers who shared with The Bulletin how their golfing addiction has changed during the economic slump of the past few years.

By no means was this a scientific poll, but the response from about a dozen golfers from around Central Oregon offers at least some insight into how the challenging economic times affected their commitment to golf if it has at all. And the survey reveals at least some reasons why many of Central Oregon’s 30 golf courses have struggled to attract golfers since the region’s economic boom turned to bust.

Brent Fisher, a 52-year-old restaurant manager from La Pine, estimates that he played about 10 rounds of golf in 2010. Previously, he says, he would play more like 30 rounds in a given year.

“I try to play golf as much as I can,” Fisher says.

But the cost of golf — coupled with the extras, such as golf carts — can make some courses prohibitively expensive, Fisher adds.

This year he took advantage of the twilight rates at Widgi Creek and a spring deal at Black Butte Ranch’s Big Meadow course, which he says lowered the cost of a round to $40.

“They ran some great deals, and that works out,” Fisher says. “That’s what everybody has got to do if they want people to come out. Golf is recreation. It is the greatest sport in the world, but if you can’t afford it, you have to make sacrifices.”

Fisher takes particular exception to the cost of renting a golf cart, which ranges from $13 to $17 per person at area courses.

“I’m in pretty good shape for my age, but a lot of the guys I play with, they have to have a cart,” says Fisher, who adds that he chooses to walk the course when he can. “That cart thing has become a thing around here.”

Help for locals Steve Priborsky, a 69-year-old Tumalo resident, once played more golf, too, as a former member of Broken Top Club in Bend.

He now plays about once a week during the golf season, spreading his play at courses around the region. He would play as many as three times a week if more courses in the region charged locals “between $35 to $40” for a round of golf, Priborsky says.

Priborsky, a semiretired general contractor, does not understand why more Central Oregon courses don’t charge a reduced rate for locals, which is common in golf meccas such as Hawaii and Las Vegas.

“Go to Hawaii, it’s more expensive to play courses there (than in Central Oregon),” says Priborsky. “But the locals get a phenomenal break (which is true at such famed facilities as Turtle Bay Resorts in Oahu).

If they did that here, they would keep the golf courses filled.

“I’ve been here for 13 years, and I don’t understand it. Sure, you were getting an influx of visitors. But you are not getting that many now to come here to play golf. You can’t just rely on visitors. You have to rely on the local people. And the local people would play twice as much (if rates were lowered for locals).”

In addition to the cost of golf in Central Oregon, the time commitment needed to play an 18-hole round — an issue at many golf courses, in good economic times and bad — is another reason why some golfers are playing less golf.

Bend’s Chris Dennee, 43, started playing fewer rounds seven years ago, after the birth of the first of his three sons.

This past year was an “all-time low,” Dennee wrote in an e-mail, noting that he played just two nine-hole rounds at the Old Back Nine and a round at Tetherow Golf Club when the Bend course offered a $40 special.

But Dennee has found other ways to get his golf fix, he says.

“To cope with the lack of disposable income (from having three children) I became more of a (driving) range rat,” Dennee says. “I got as much enjoyment out of hitting the range with my boys for six bucks a bucket as I did paying $20 to $40 for nine holes.”

But, Dennee adds: “I must say that if more courses in Central Oregon offered a $20 nine, I’d be out there more often.”

Competition for time

Ross D. Franklin / The Associated Press

Oregon’s Tyrell Irvin, front, and Marvin Johnson, front left, warm up during practice Tuesday in Phoenix.

Oregon Continued from D1 Playing to the rhythm of crunching pads and yelling coaches instead of music, the top-ranked Tigers shook off the rust with a two-hour-or-so practice that left them looking focused and relaxed after being greeted by dozens of fans at the team hotel the night before.

“Hopefully, we can create our own soundtrack,” said Cam Newton, Auburn’s Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback. “But it depends on who’s doing the playlist; hopefully it’s not coach (Gene) Chizik.”

They’ve been waiting a long time to start up the band.

Auburn hasn’t won a national title since 1957 and got stiff-armed out of

the championship game after the 2004 season, when USC and Oklahoma got the nod over the unbeaten Tigers.

Auburn wrapped up its season on Nov. 26 with a 56-17 paddling of No. 18 South Carolina that all but locked up the Heisman for Newton after his six-TD performance. Since then, the Tigers have had plenty of time to watch film of Oregon’s offense leaving opponents gasping, even faking injuries.

Between the Ducks’ speed and the five-week break between games, yeah, conditioning will be a primary focus this week.

“We’re doing a lot of conditioning with everybody,” Chizik said. “Obviously, our whole football team has been off for a long time, so it’s not just the defense; we’ve done extra lifting and conditioning with the whole

team.”

The Tigers aren’t exactly slow — both teams are top 10 in scoring and total offense — and Oregon’s last game was on Dec. 4, so the Ducks need to get their feathers loose, so to speak, as well.

Based on a glimpse of desert practice No. 2 — Auburn’s was closed — they seem to already be in high gear.

Racing around to an eclectic playlist that included “Eye of the Tiger” and Elvis Crespo’s “Suavemente,” Oregon (12-0) turned the practice field into a beehive of organized commotion.

The quarterbacks loosened up with some long-arm throws over the top to receivers who looked even faster with their neon-green cleats and shoelaces, then worked on footwork for on-the-run throws to the right.

The running backs fought off hard

shots with thick, handheld pads after taking handoffs and the linemen pounded the blocking sleds with a familiar clunk-clunk sound from their hit-and-releases.

The entire operation was orchestrated to the second, the scoreboard counting down every three minutes or so to a horn that signifies it’s time to switch drills.

After about the fifth toot, a guy in dark sunglasses and a black windbreaker started stalking the sideline, letting everyone know this window into practice was over — right now.

“Time’s up — we’ve got a schedule to keep!” he said. “Gotta go! Gotta go!

Gotta go!”

And with that, everyone did, some of them peeking over their shoulders to get one last photo or glimpse of the Ducks in flight.

Paul Blikstad, a longtime resident of Central Oregon and a Deschutes County planner, is an example of a golfer with a more basic problem with the game: It’s difficult.

Blikstad, 56, once carried a respectable handicap of 15 and now struggles to break 90. That has been frustrating for Blikstad, who says he plays much less golf than he once did.

“I haven’t completely lost my desire for the game, but I don’t want this frustration,” he says. “I would rather ride my mountain bike.”

Not every region has as many outdoor activities to offer as Central Oregon. And that can be tough for local golf courses to compete with, considering that many of those activities are less expensive than golf.

“There are too many other things to do,” Priborsky says. “They’re going skiing, they can go bike riding, they can ride their motorcycles. They can do a lot of things here that don’t cost that much.”

Add it all up, and it makes for an environment in which golf courses can find it challenging to survive.

“I feel for all the golf courses around here, because I understand they are having tough times, too,” Fisher says. “But some of them are not dropping their prices and trying to make deals for people. They are still trying to make their money and they are not doing that well. But I would hate to see any of them go down.”

There are ways for golf courses to lure more golfers in this economy, Priborsky says.

And it comes down to price.

Priborsky believes that golf courses would offset the loss of revenue brought on by lower prices by attracting more players and generating more paid rounds.

“I would probably play two or three times a week if the rates were affordable, but they’re not,” Priborsky says. “And there are a lot of guys that I play with that would do the same thing. But they only play once a week.

“You make it affordable, you are going to make up for it in volume. I guarantee you.”

Anthony Kim wants to be about good golf, not gossip

By Doug Ferguson The Associated Press

KAPALUA, Hawaii — Anthony Kim wants 2011 to be a season that changes his career.

He hopes it might be enough to change his reputation, too.

One of the most dynamic young talents in golf? That’s what people were saying two years ago, when Kim blew away the field with a record score at Quail Hollow, then shot 65 in the final round at Congressional to win the AT&T National. It made him the youngest American since Tiger Woods to win twice in one year.

If that wasn’t enough, he brought energy and attitude to the Ryder Cup and was the catalyst of a rare U.S. victory.

That now seems like a long time ago.

It’s not that the 25-year-old Californian has disappeared.

He is still among the elite at No. 31 in the world, having reached as high as No. 6 toward the end of 2008. And only PGA Tour winners enjoy the oceanfront room that Kim has at Kapalua, where the Tournament of Champions kicks off a new season Thursday.

But he has a bitter taste about how last year ended.

He won the Houston Open in a playoff, then closed with a 65 at Augusta National to finish third. Thumb surgery a month later kept him out of golf for three months, and he failed to make the Ryder Cup team when he couldn’t make a cut upon his return.

Kim still managed to make news, or at least gossip columns.

He has a zest for living, which first came to life with tales from his Ryder Cup celebration at Valhalla and carried on through Twitter and blog reports from a night in the Las Vegas casinos in October.

Is he closer to being like Tiger Woods or John Daly?

“That’s a hell of a question,” Kim said, smiling at first before pausing to contemplate.

Daly makes more news off the course these days, so it’s easy to overlook an amazing talent that brought him a PGA Championship title as a 25-year-old rookie in 1991 and a British Open victory at St. Andrews. Kim found it coincidental that after headlines he made in Las Vegas in October, Daly was the only tour player who reached out to him in a text message.

“Both have majors,” Kim said.

“I think I’m closer to Tiger because I love putting in the time.

Now, I’ve gotten away from this. But I definitely feel like I’m closer as far as the values of the Asian culture and putting in time, not worrying about tough times. In a lot of ways, I think

Anthony Kim reacts to a shot during the second round of the PGA Championship at Whistling Straits in Haven, Wis., last year. Kim is one of the most promising young American golfers, and he hopes to make more news on the course than off of it this year.

“I don’t want to be a player no one can relate to.

Sure, I’ve made some mistakes. I know that I was brought up well by two very great people, people that everyone respects. I’m not the type of person to stray off course. Maybe I did for a minute, but I’ve realized that I’ve got to have a game plan — not for my next round, but for my life.”

— PGA Tour golfer Anthony Kim, on some of the troubles that have dogged him off the course people see me as a guy who likes to have fun, and that’s it.

But I care about a lot of things.”

Kim is careful not to be motivated for the wrong reasons.

He has trimmed the number of his traveling party and has heard from enough people whom he trusts that playing with the purpose of proving people wrong is the wrong route. Even so, he feels as though fans, the media and players are questioning his devotion to his sport.

“I have a lot of people doubting me, which I like,” he said.

When asked why they are skeptical of his future, Kim first mentioned the arrival of so many players in his age group.

Indeed, that’s what makes golf more intriguing than it has been in years. Martin Kaymer, who just turned 26, last year became the youngest major champion since Woods in 2001. Rory McIlroy won at Quail Hollow at age 20. Ryo Ishikawa was still 18 when he shot 58 to win in Japan.

Jason Day won in Dallas, and at 23 is the youngest player at Kapalua.

Slightly older than Kim, and still very young, are the likes of Dustin Johnson and Hunter Mahan.

“A lot of guys played well who are younger, and they’re overlooking me, which is fine,” Kim said. “It’s not that I have something to prove. I know I’m capable of winning golf tournaments.”

But it’s more than the youth movement bugging Kim. When asked whether he was troubled about players doubting him because of his activity off the course, Kim’s eyes widened and he turned in his chair away from the Orange Bowl game on television.

“One hundred percent.

Couldn’t have said it any better,” he said. “I feel that is a major reason why people doubt me. They don’t think I care about golf.

It’s hard for people who don’t know me to say, ‘He’s 25, having a good time with his friends.’ If anyone knows me, they know I’m willing to admit to my mistakes. But when I do something, I want to be the best at it. I’m go-

ing to scratch and claw my way up the ladder. People around me see that.”

Kim doesn’t see the need to explain what happened in Las Vegas. If there was a lesson that came out of that, it was understanding that it’s better to be the center of attention inside the ropes than under a neon sign.

“I feel obligated to my sponsors to do a better job of not even letting some of these stories come out,” he said. “I don’t want to be a player no one can relate to. Sure, I’ve made some mistakes. I know that I was brought up well by two very great people, people that everyone respects. I’m not the type of person to stray off course.

Maybe I did for a minute, but I’ve realized that I’ve got to have a game plan — not for my next round, but for my life.”

Leave it to Kim to draw an analogy from George St. Pierre, who said the Ultimate Fighting Championship was a lot like golf. He didn’t get the sense the UFC welterweight knew much about golf, but his words stuck with Kim. “He said once you make the golf swing and hit the shot, you can’t control it. You have to do everything before the shot to control the outcome,” Kim said.

“I’m going to do whatever I can to control what I can.”

That starts this week at Kapalua, and his hope is to carry that through this year and beyond to get his name back in the conversation for all the right reasons.

KAPALUA, Hawaii — The Masters is about to let anyone play Augusta National — at least in a video game.

In another step toward reaching a younger audience, the Masters will be featured in EA Sports’ next edition of the popular “Tiger Woods PGA Tour 12” golf game franchise.

The game is go on sale March 29, a week before the Masters, and will be available on Wii, Xbox 360 and PlayStation consoles. It will be the first time Augusta National has allowed its fabled golf course to be used for a video game.

“This is great for the sport and will connect a new audience with the Masters, a tournament I’ve been fortunate to experience since 1995,” said Woods, a four-time Masters champion. “Continually growing the visibility of golf is important to attracting newcomers to the sport, and I agree that showcasing the Masters Tournament in the game will bring an entirely new dimension to that approach.”

The move is part of a broader effort by the club to increase interest in golf around the world, especially among youth. In his four years as club chairman, Billy Payne started a program in which juniors can attend the Masters for free with an adult who has a season badge and televised the Par 3 tournament.

Payne also announced Tuesday the “Masters Tournament Foundation,” a charity arm that will allow Augusta National to invest in developmental programs around the world. Payne said all proceeds from the EA Sports game would go into the new foundation.

Payne first raised the idea of the Masters being part of video games two years ago while expanding the multimedia aspect of the tournament’s website.

“Well, we are not going to be included on other people’s video games,” he said at the 2008 tournament.

EA Sports, however, offered a technology that was hard to ignore. It developed a laser scanning technology that could capture every detail, from the sharp changes in elevation to the bloom on azaleas and dogwoods.

Peter Moore, the EA Sports president, said he has been in contact with Augusta National for the last three years. It took 10 days to laser the course, and the entire project took the equivalent of 10 people working around the clock for a full year on nothing but Augusta National.

“To his credit,” Moore said of Payne, “he sees the way a video game can actually grow knowledge in the sport.”

CENTRAL OREGON COURSE UPDATE OGA promotes new junior golf director WOODBURN — Craig Winter has been selected as the Oregon Golf Association’s director of junior golf.

Winter, the OGA’s current manager of rules education and special events, will take over the role early this year, according to the OGA. Winter will replace retiring junior golf director Charlotte Plank. Winter and Plank will work together during a twomonth transition period.

The OGA says Winter will continue to oversee the OGA’s rules department in addition to his new junior golf duties.

The Central Oregon Junior, which was played in 2010 at Awbrey Glen Golf Club in Bend and Juniper Golf Course in Redmond, is among the OGA’s junior golf tournaments.

A look back at Brasada Ranch in 2010

Our marketing for the resort will expand beyond the Pacific Northwest and will focus more on our resort amenities (golf, equestrian, athletic club, shooting range, archery center, dining) rather than a real estate focused marketing plan. Expect to see a grand opening at Brasada in early July 2011.

Whether it be coopping with Pronghorn and Tetherow for our Best of Bend TwoPerson Best Ball, being involved with the Central Oregon Golf Trail, promoting Central Oregon golf at the Pacific Northwest Golf Shows in Seattle and Portland, or hosting fundraisers that bring a new customer to your resort, all seem to be creating rounds and new members for Brasada Ranch.

“We say, ‘Do you want to go out to eat tonight?’ Then my husband says, ‘What coupon do we have?’”

“Literally,” she said, “sometimes we dine at half price now.”

The Bend resident is finding coupons on two relatively

new websites providing fresh tools for Central Oregon bargain hunters.

ZingDealz and DoLocalDeals both launched here within the past five months.

Although their models vary, both post deals on goods and services from various businesses throughout the community, ranging from salons to restaurants to retail.

The main way these offers stand out is they come direct-

ly to your e-mail inbox — or for the social media savvy, your Facebook and Twitter feeds — and they often sport discounts of 50 percent or more.

“Fifteen percent, 20 percent, that just doesn’t tickle people’s fancy anymore,” said Michael Bolling, a partner in ZingDealz. He said to get on board, businesses must be willing to offer customers more.

It’s not too early to think about Down outwear gets a makeover getting a CSA membership GOODBYE, MICHELIN MAN

By Carrie Kirby

Designers use new fabrics, creative stitching to slim down those too-bulky silhouettes

By Suzanne S. Brown The Denver Post

While a puffy silhouette looks fine on the Michelin Man, too many of us are already wearing tires in places we can ill afford to sport them.

So we’ve taken a pass when it comes to wearing down-insulated outerwear. But this season, the soft feathers that keep waterfowl warm and insulated have been given a second look by outerwear designers, who are using inventive stitching and new fabrics to create slim and chic down vests, jackets, parkas, hats and even gloves.

On the fashion runways for winter, designers like Michael Kors sent out metallic furtrimmed puffer coats worn over sleek sportswear, and such companies as Francebased Moncler have spawned imitators of its shiny black quilted jackets.

Even companies like Eddie Bauer, which originated the use of down in expedition wear, are giving down a fresh look and adapting it for use by city dwellers as well as mountain climbers. Karin DeYoung-Wood, design director for outerwear at Eddie Bauer, weighed in on the trend.

Spring may seem far off, but now is actually the perfect time to sign up with a farm to receive produce boxes for the 2011 growing season. Some farms may still be offering early sign-up discounts, and some memberships will likely be full

Girl with abusive home life should try to help herself Dear Abby: I’m dating a 15-yearold girl who was seriously physically abused in the past. She and her mom had to move away for a while, but have now been told by Department of Children and Family Services that it’s safe for them to move back with her father, who abused her.

After seeing what goes on in this house and hearing her describe how they treat her, I think the physical abuse has changed to mental and emotional abuse. I’m not sure what to do because I’m 18 and it’s “illegal” that we are dating. It scares me that they can use anything against me.

— What to Do? Dear What to Do?: You are not in a position to do anything yourself.

If you try to get help for your girlfriend, her parents could create problems for you that would last a lifetime. However, that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t encourage the girl to help herself by talking to a counselor, a trusted teacher or a clergyperson about the difficulties she’s experiencing at home. If she does, they are mandated by law to report abuse. And this is a family that’s already been in the system.

Dear Abby: I have been unable to ask “Mary” out — or at least see if she’s into me — because we both work at the same place.

I am not the type to be shy with my feelings, but with her it’s different. When I see her, I forget everything else. It’s as if my whole world stops when I see her smile.

She’s amazing!

I want to ask her out, but I’m unsure how to, considering that I am a woman. She does not know how I feel about her. What should I do?

— Has it Bad in Arizona Dear Has it Bad: First, see if there are regulations in your employee handbook that discourage employees from dating. If there aren’t, go slow and let Mary get to know you as a friend before trying to start a romantic relationship. And before declaring your feelings, be sure that a lesbian relationship is one that your co-

DEAR ABBY worker would welcome.

Dear Abby: My boyfriend of three years, “Sam,” came home from basic training in the Army and told me he wanted to go active. (He was part of the National Guard.) He has asked me to go with him and I agreed, but in order to do that we have to be married.

I love Sam very much and we have talked about marriage before, but not elopement. He hasn’t really “proposed” because he doesn’t have a ring. We will be married, but without a real wedding — yet.

I have no problem with this. It’s a bit unconventional, but I love Sam and want to go with him. It will be an opportunity to travel, and I could finish my degree online.

The problem is, how would I define us as a couple? When we move onto the base, I’m worried people will see my ringless finger and ask questions. What should I tell them? And when we do have the actual wedding, what will that be called?

— Don’t Want to be Embarrassed in California Dear Don’t Want to be Embarrassed: Not all married women wear wedding rings, although most do. If you are afraid there will be questions if you’re not wearing one, you and Sam might consider getting a used gold band to wear until he can buy you something else. If that doesn’t appeal to you, then you’ll just have to tell people that you are married and you have the license to prove it. (I doubt it will come to that.) And when you and Sam are finally able to have the wedding of your dreams, call it a renewal of your marriage vows.

TV teens come out of the closet ‘90210,’ ‘Glee’ and other shows geared toward young people are featuring more gay and lesbian characters

By Whitney Friedlander Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — As it becomes more common for teenagers to realize — and then tell others — that they are gay or lesbian, there is also a growing number of teen characters on TV programs geared toward teens going through the same thing. The CW’s “90210,” which returns on Jan. 24, joins the ranks of shows like “Glee,” “Gossip Girl,” “Pretty Little Liars,” “Hellcats,” “Greek” and the new MTV series “Skins” in showcasing young, gay roles.

“I felt like the world of ‘90210’ was missing the gay characters that it would realistically have,” said Rebecca Sinclair, the CW series’ show runner and executive producer, on the writers’ decision to show teen character Teddy Montgomery’s coming-out process. “... And honestly, in a genre that depends on the coupling, decoupling and recoupling of its characters, it behooves us to find the most diverse ways to do that.”

So it was that Teddy — a “90210” character most fans had written off as a rich playboy whose latest infatuation was ex-girlfriend Silver — hooked up with classmate Ian at the beginning of this season

Trevor Donovan as Teddy, from left, Jessica Stroup as Erin Silver and Michael Steger as Navid Shirazi are shown in a scene from “90210.” Teddy hooked up with a male classmate at the beginning of this season and eventually admitted the truth about himself. and slowly admitted the truth about himself. And Adrianna Tate-Duncan (Jessica Lowndes), another of Teddy’s exes on “90210,” experimented with bisexuality last season.

“Coming-out stories are standard, almost a cliché of television stories dealing with gay characters and this goes back to the ’70s and the ’80s,” said Larry Gross of USC’s Annenberg School for Communication & Journalism, who specializes in lesbians and gays in the media. “What’s probably different now is that the age is becoming younger and I think this reflects the fact that the sort of battleground for gay people in society includes high school and probably even includes middle school.”

This phenomenon can be seen in “Degrassi,” the Canadian teen drama whose current version

is in its 10th season and airs on TeenNick in the U.S. The show has existed in various iterations and over the years has moved from having a main character with an older gay brother to covering two male coming-out story lines, a lesbian and a questioning character. It currently features a transgender teen character named Adam, played by actress Jordan Todosey.

Teen coming-out stories seem especially relevant after reports of physical bullying and cyberbullying reached a boiling point last year with a number of gay teen suicides. “Hellcats,” a new CW series about college cheerleading, tweaked a plot line this season af-

ter it ended up too closely mirroring the events that reportedly led to the death of Rutgers student Tyler Clementi. Shows like “Glee” and “Degrassi” have presented intense story lines about bullying, while “Pretty Little Liars” and “Gossip Girl” have included “I know your secret” cyber threats.

“The idea of taking Eric’s sexuality and be able to tell that story in the language of the show” was important, “Gossip Girl” executive producer Stephanie Savage said of a story line in Season 1 in which Serena’s younger brother publicly revealed that he had been kissing the handsome blueblood who ladder-climber Jenny Humphrey was passing off as her boyfriend. “We didn’t want to stop ‘Gossip Girl’ and have a ‘very special episode’ about Eric.”

The takeaway in these shows is typically consistent: that you will be accepted for who you are. Jarrett Barrios, president of the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation, pointed to the example of Kurt coming out to his dad in “Glee.” “We see in ‘Glee’ in the father’s response a very important role modeling on how to show your love for the child who just came out. In a way, (his father) is coming out too — as a relative of someone who is lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender.”

But does this mirror the responses of these shows’ viewers?

“I’m often delightfully surprised at how unshocked young people are,” said Oliver Goldstick, an executive producer on “Pretty Little Liars.” “They just move on.

It’s like: OK.”

Down Continued from E1 DeYoung-Wood says she and her team are inspired by the company’s heritage, including outfitting such climbers as Jim Whitaker, the first American to summit Mount Everest, in 1963. “We collect pieces and put them in our offices and workrooms,” she says.

A fashion trend Companies like Moncler have helped make down a fashion trend, as have technological advances in fabrics and construction techniques.

“We are doing things that weren’t possible 10 years ago, like a lighter-weight, two-layer construction,” DeYoung-Wood says. “When you can make something that people think they know about new and modern, that becomes a big thing.

Customers wear it and can tell the difference.”

Eddie Bauer’s Downlight sweater and vest are examples.

They are made from 800-fill power down — about the lightest, warmest insulation you can find — and covered in a waterresistant shell so that the piece can be worn alone or underneath a parka when more protection is needed.

DeYoung-Wood says the company is picky about the down it uses, preferring feathers from northern Europe because the geese that live in that cold, damp climate produce “a lofty down that is highly insulating.”

In designing the sweater — so-called because it’s used as a layering garment — DeYoung-Wood says the team was inspired by expeditioners who need to pile on warm, compressible pieces. But it has become her garment of choice for outings more likely to be everyday errands than adventurous climbs.

“For me personally, it’s like a bathrobe,” she says.

Form and function Because its customers want to be able to count on a garment to keep them warm and dry at various temperatures, Eddie Bauer tests and rates coats, indicating they’re suited for wear in cold weather (20 to 40 degrees); very cold (zero to 20 degrees); and arctic cold (to minus-30 degrees). Down fill power is rated from 550 to 900; the higher the number, the warmer the garment.

The quilt pattern also helps determine how warm a garment will be.

“The colder the weather, the larger you want the channel or quilt size to be so it will trap more air,” says DeYoung-Wood.

When more than warmth is the issue, the quilt pattern can determine how figure-flattering a jacket or vest is. Box and chevron quilt patterns are more slimming than horizontal lines, which widen the figure, she says.

Slimmer silhouettes and the pure comfort of down are what appeal to women, says Terry Garbarini. Down vests are a staple at her Denver boutique because of Colorado’s weather, she says.

“So many days start out cold, but then you’ll roast in the sun if you have on a full coat.”

The Denver Post

Thanks to technological advances in fabrics and construction techniques, today’s outerwear can combine the warmth and comfort of down with slimmer, more flattering shapes than the traditional bulky down jacket.

Among her favorite lines is the Italy-based ADD, whose vests start at $170 and come in a rainbow of colors.

What to wear Cindy Weber Cleary, fashion director of InStyle magazine, said her first puffer garment was a nylon “sleeping bag coat” offered by New York designer Norma Kamali in the late 1970s.

So enduring is the design that Kamali continues to offer sleeping-bag styles on her website in the $300-$500 range, and has created an inexpensive version for the collection that she sells for about $35 at Walmart.

Cleary offers tips on how to wear down without looking overstuffed in December’s issue of the magazine, and elaborated in a phone interview.

“Look for a coat with a belt, as it will pull in some of the volume,” she says. Also, seek quilt patterns that are varied and not strictly horizontal. Stitching that is on an angle can nip you in visually at the waist.

In addition, length is a factor. Make sure a vest or jacket doesn’t hit you at the widest part of your figure — typically your hips. A coat that reaches your fingertips or calf is a more flattering length, she says.

And when putting a look together to wear around town, don’t wear a lot of bulky clothes under such a jacket. A form-fitting turtleneck and lean trousers will offset the bulkiness of the jacket, while a boot with a wedge heel will offer a little more height.

Think luxurious and contemporary when it comes to accessories — aviator sunglasses, faux-fur scarf, a metallic handbag.

When choosing a color for a piece of down outerwear, don’t automatically grab black, but staying in a muted color will give your look more versatility than a bright, which tends to look like more at home on the ski slopes, Cleary says.

“If you’re looking for a coat to wear to work or in a city situation, neutrals are more understated.”

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Wednesday, Jan. 5, 2011: This year, a lot is happening that causes you to revise your thinking.

You are more upbeat than you have been in years because of a willingness to let go and try new situations. You are more optimistic and lucky than you have been in a long time. If you are single, romance bubbles up in the summer. You could meet someone special. If you are attached, the heat of the summer adds to the temperature of the relationship between you.

AQUARIUS helps you make money.

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 Listen to news -- the unexpected runs riot. Lean on your sixth sense and trust it. You could discover another perspective if you give up being too rational. Zero in on what is important, and nothing less. Your softer side emerges with a loved one. Tonight: Follow the gang.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH You might wonder which way to go. Honor what is happening, and stay open to possibilities. A friend keeps blowing in with wild suggestions. Others try many different ways to manipulate the situation.

Observe rather than respond.

Tonight: A must appearance.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Reach out for more information. Trust your ability to visualize and manifest. After the past few days, you discover the power of sugar over vinegar. Remember,

you are responsible for the end results. Tonight: Detach and relax.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Work with individuals rather than groups. Your style appeals to many different people. Seek out different opinions as you open up a brainstorming session. You could be surprised to know that there is more information coming. Tonight: Togetherness is the theme.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Continue to allow others to run the show. You need some clarity as to who does what. Others will be able to see the end results far more easily if you remove yourself from the mix. An element of instability yet good will exists with a loved one.

Tonight: Know when you are tired.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH Thinking about work all the time and what you must do could be a drag. Events involving your immediate circle of friends push you away from this need to be efficient. Kick back. Make some calls to those you haven’t chatted with in a while. Tonight: Exercise.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH The unexpected occurs.

Focus on incorporating the excitement into your life, allowing for greater give-and-take with those in your office. Be careful about going overboard, whether you’re just eating a meal, expressing your feelings or making a purchase. The holidays are over! Tonight: Where the fun is.

SCORPIO (Oct 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Your inevitable creativity plays out in a conversation with a child. If you are doing a crossword puzzle or working

on an artistic project, you leave your unique fingerprint. Others respond to your innate charisma and ingenuity. Tonight: Let the fun begin. Dump negativity.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Listen to your instincts and follow through on a personal matter.

Some of you might be checking out a real estate investment. If you focus on security too much, you might not be able to see a wonderful opportunity. Tonight: Order in.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Stop and become more aware of what you have to offer to a situation. You will see much more than you think. Living in a materialistic world, we forget and often think in terms of money alone.

Say what you feel, but don’t be surprised by someone’s reaction.

Tonight: You don’t need to break the bank in order to enjoy yourself.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Allow greater give-andtake. How you deal with certain people could change as a result of what could happen. Be aware that not everyone responds to the same normally well-received style. The same word conjures up different images for different people.

Tonight: Live it up as only you can.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Sometimes you might be more mellow than other times. Right now you go through moods very quickly, making it difficult to predict what will happen. Others step back rather than get involved in a difficult situation.

They never know what is coming next.

Tonight: Get a good night’s sleep. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

C OV ER S T OR I ES

Deals

“For the most part, I think it’s a great experience to try a new place or go to a favorite restaurant for a discount,” she said.

Continued from E1 For a consumer, that can mean big savings. And with a little know-how, including attention to the fine print, these services aren’t hard to navigate.

Getting the deals

Groupon phenomenon Have you heard of Groupon yet?

If not, it’s understandable. It grew from tiny startup to Internet giant in a little more than two years. But knowing a bit about Groupon.com — which has yet to enter the Central Oregon market — can explain why sites like DoLocalDeals and ZingDealz exist.

Not long ago, Groupon says on its site, it was a fledgling outfit with six employees and a bit of angel funding. Today, it’s so successful that it has sites in almost 190 different locales across North America and, according to various news reports, just walked away from a $6 billion buyout offer from Google.

The way Groupon works is this: It enlists a business, say a bakery, to offer a deal. The deal is broadcast to people who have signed up for that locale of Groupon.com. Those members have a limited time to buy, and they pay Groupon.com, not the business.

Each deal has a tipping point, meaning enough people must buy it in order for it to be valid.

The website indicates right next to the deal whether that tipping point has been reached. And if the number of takers falls short, those who bought aren’t charged.

If the deal tips, then buyers print out a copy of their coupon or bring it up on their smart phones. Then they take it to the business or, in the case of a service like a massage, call to schedule. Sometimes the use-by dates are time sensitive, other times they’re valid for months.

The amount saved by the buyer is often significant. For instance, on Thursday, Salem’s Groupon offered $25 worth of merchandise for $10 at Fresh to You Produce & Garden Center.

Groupon makes money only if the deal tips. Then it takes a percentage commission on each deal sold.

How the business aims to benefit varies. Sometimes the goal is to introduce itself to new customers, hoping to draw them back after one good experience. Other

Local businesses that have recently offered deals via ZingDealz and DoLocalDeals include, from left, restaurants Tart and Longboard Louie’s, and gaming establishment NWX Games.

times, said Justin Yax, partner at Bend’s DVA Advertising and Public Relations, it’s to bring in traffic at a slow time of year with the idea that some business at a lower margin is better than none.

While businesses in other areas have reported both positive and negative experiences with Groupon, consumers have seized onto it in a big way.

And a few folks are betting that Central Oregonians will too.

Local sites While Groupon is already in cities as small as Billings, Mont., with a population of roughly 106,000, as well as in Portland, Salem and Eugene, it hasn’t expanded to Central Oregon.

But two similar sites have kicked off here within the last five months. ZingDealz went live in September, and DoLocalDeals launched in November.

Offering bargains through coupons certainly isn’t new to Central Oregon. The Bulletin publishes dozens of money-saving coupons daily. Others arrive in the mailbox and some are even in the telephone book.

Online coupon options exist as well. Some individual businesses post coupons on their websites.

One other local site, Source Perks (www.tsweekly.com/perks), allows customers to buy deals and then sends the coupons through the U.S. Postal Service.

But DoLocalDeals and ZingDealz are a bit different. Each offers deals with Central Oregon businesses several days a week, broadcasting with e-mail, Facebook and Twitter.

ZingDealz and DoLocalDeals both post offers for a limited time, and both require the customer to pay before walking into the business. Neither site uses the tipping point method, mean-

ing the deal is on even if only one person buys. And they both make money in the same way as Groupon — by commission.

The main difference between these two is how customers use the deal certificates.

“You need to read the fine print on both DoLocalDeals and Zing,” said Anderton, a regular user of both sites.

With ZingDealz, the deals can be used immediately, instead of waiting for a response e-mail or the U.S. Postal Service. But they also usually have a tight use-by window, often about three days from purchase.

ZingDealz partner Bolling said businesses get an electronic device — right now, iPads, but perhaps something else in the future — when participating in a “Zinger.” When people purchase a Zing deal, their information is shot electronically to the business.

This eliminates the need to print out the coupon and bring it in. A person in a vehicle (but not driving, of course) could purchase the deal on a smart phone on the way to the business. Then that customer would give the name to a clerk, who would look it up on the iPad and honor the deal.

Bolling said ZingDealz has at times extended the use-by dates: An example might be a salon that has so many Zing customers that it can’t schedule them all in the allotted amount of time. But it rarely offers a longer use-by date at the outset.

Anderton said she appreciates that when she buys from ZingDealz there’s a page that comes up during the purchasing process where the customer must acknowledge short use-by dates.

But she also said sometimes deals go by faster than she has time to take advantage of them, leading her not to buy.

DoLocalDeals also sports limited-time offers, but they generally have a longer use-by date.

The company, within minutes of purchase, sends customers the certificate by e-mail. Customers then print out the coupon and take the paper to the business or show the certificate on their smart phone at the business.

In addition to its deals, which are usually 50-percent-off bargains, DoLocalDeals offers other discounts. Some are gift cards, which DoLocalDeals owner Matthew Hall said generally offer 25 to 30 percent off. Then there are traditional coupons, which are posted indefinitely on the website. Those pitch the smallest discounts.

Hall said he only e-mails his subscribers about deals. News about gifts cards and coupons goes up on Facebook, Twitter and the website.

“People don’t necessarily like to get a lot of e-mails,” he said.

Representatives from both sites said if the customer has trouble with a business, whether it doesn’t honor the deal or fails to provide the service, they will step in and either set the business straight or offer a refund for what was spent, but not the retail value of the deal.

Anderton said in her experience, the fine print with DoLocalDeals is also important. For instance, she bought a gift card to Bend restaurant Bourbon Street through the site as a present. But then she had to take the coupon to the restaurant to exchange it for the gift card.

Also, Anderton said, the entire dollar amount of the deals must sometimes be used in one trip.

That might not be hard at a clothing store, but it could be when buying frozen yogurt.

Yet Anderton is an unabashed fan.

The businesses promoting themselves through ZingDealz and DoLocalDeals vary widely.

Sit-down Bend restaurants like Tart, 900 Wall and Amalia’s have appeared, as have casual joints like Cuppa Yo and Longboard Louie’s. Last week, DoLocalDeals offered $80 worth of window washing and gutter cleaning from Fish Window Cleaning for $40. Customers might also spot yoga classes, children’s clothing shops and lawn services on the sites.

For some, the websites are about getting a better price at their favorite businesses.

“Generally I’m attracted to the ones I already know,” said Bend resident Marcy McCoun.

As a mom to three, those attractive ones are child-oriented: a discounted membership at Bouncing Off the Wall, a merchandise credit at Lula Hoops clothing store, two hours for the price of one at NWX Games.

“They’re really good savings,” McCoun said. “It’s not just 10 percent off, it’s 50 percent.”

“And then I end up spending more than I’d planned,” she added, “which I’m sure the merchants are happy about.”

Others say they’ve tried new businesses. Anderton said one restaurant has become a place her family goes regularly. Another first experience went poorly and she will not be going back.

Yax, of DVA Advertising and Public Relations, said he expects area customers will see more of such deals down the road. Even now he discusses with clients using such sites as part of their marketing plans. And some, like Sunriver Resort, have incorporated them into their sales strategies. During slow times, Sunriver Resort has posted deals through Groupon.com to get people to visit from the Willamette Valley.

Of course, Yax is also an avid deal-seeker himself.

“I think I have a few on my counter at home right now,” he said. “I think people love it once they know about it.”

CSAs Continued from E1 Before you jump into a membership, make sure you’re a good candidate, advises Erin Barnett, director of LocalHarvest.org, a website that connects consumers with farmers. “Sometimes people with good intentions use the idea of the CSA as a way of trying to change their whole way of eating, and that doesn’t generally work,” Barnett said. “If you don’t cook already, if you don’t eat a wide range of vegetables, you may find that joining a CSA is challenging.”

Two of the main factors in choosing which CSA to join are delivery location and the size of the share. Some farms offer just one size box. To avoid ending up with too much (or too little), pick a farm that offers options.

It’s also a good idea to compare prices before committing, and to contact the farm directly to verify pricing. Price comparison is not easy, because the farmers only provide estimates of how much food you are going to receive. “What’s in the CSA (box) is going to be contingent on the success of the farm that year,” Gardner said. “That’s the whole beauty of the CSA — you don’t really know what you’re getting until you get it.”

To get a feel for the volume, and even more important, the quality of the produce and the reliability of delivery, ask customers. Local Harvest posts customer reviews and ratings.

Or just ask around.

Another important person to speak with is the farmer, Barnett said. Ask how long they’ve been participating in community-supported agriculture. Also ask what happens if you decide that you don’t like being a member. “Some farms make it very clear that if you want out for any reason, they’ll prorate the balance of your season and you can leave,” she said. “Others say, ‘This is a season-long commitment, and once you’re in, you’re in.’”
