Walden says Congress, public should have a say, opposes plan By Keith Chu The Bulletin
WASHINGTON — Congressional Republicans, including U.S. Rep. Greg Walden, are taking aim at a new federal directive that could put more federal lands off-limits to grazing, new roads and other human activity. Just before Christmas, Interior Secretary Ken Salazar announced a new review of Bureau of Land Management lands to determine whether those areas should receive a newly created “Wild Lands” protected status, which would be similar to, although not as restrictive as, federal wilderness areas. Environmental groups heralded the announcement, while timber companies and Republicans vowed to fight it. Walden, R-Hood River, plans to hold a press conference in Medford today to discuss his opposition to the policy. It’s the notion that an administration can put large swaths of land off-limits with little congressional or public input that is Walden’s biggest objection, he said in an interview on Friday. “Agencies can now in effect, based on some member of Congress introducing a bill or someone just suggesting an area needs special protection, further lock up the public land from the public without any due process,” Walden said. “I’m sure they’ll say they have some public process they’ll go through, but this makes it all inside baseball, inside D.C.” See Land / A4

riday morning, Julie Schiedler was in her garden, tending to some confused rhubarb. The plants, lulled by the unseasonably warm weather last week, were starting to poke through the
soil. “Everything’s coming up and it shouldn’t be,” Schiedler said. “You get all excited about it and think that it’s spring — and it’s not.” January brought some unusual weather to Central Oregon — even a record-tying high temperature in Redmond last week. Conditions were relatively warm and dry in Bend and Redmond and rainy in the mountains, leading to a stagnant snowpack. “Winter is only basically half over,” said Jon Lea, Oregon’s snow survey program manager with the Natural Resources Conservation Service. “Everybody is getting spring fever.” January brought rain to the Cascades, he said, which prevented the snowpack from accumulating like it typically does. The rain melted away the snow at lower elevations and seeped into the snowpack at higher elevations, compressing it and making it dense, with some of the water draining away. “What happened in January is the majority of the storms that came, I’ll say around the 14th and 15th, right around MLK Day, those were relatively warm storms,” Lea said. “So it was raining up to fairly high elevations, around 9,000 feet.” Still, it’s early in the winter season, he said. It’s a La Niña year, Lea added, which typically brings cooler and wetter winter to the Northwest, so that could pick up again. “Now we’ve had that big rainstorm, we’d like to see some more snow come in and replenish what disappeared during the rain,” he said. In the Upper Deschutes and Crooked River basins, the snowpack was at 84 percent of average as of Sunday; however, the amount of precipitation was at 112 percent of average for the year. The melt from the snowpacks has been good for filling area reservoirs, said Steven Johnson, Central Oregon Irrigation District manager, and Wickiup Reservoir is on track to fill before summer.

When Suzanne El-Attar, of Madras, was with her husband and two kids in Cairo visiting her parents last month, she said everything seemed fine. There was no talk of insurrection, and even though it was well known that many Egyptians were unhappy with their government, and in particular President Hosni Mubarak, the trip was pleasant. “You wouldn’t have known that this type of event would have been happening a couple weeks later; you had no sense of it at the time,” said El-Attar, an Egyptian-American physician with the Madras Medical Group.

Displeased, she turned to Google for help. What it delivered was a mess, a collection of spammy sites riddled with ads. So she turned to Twitter, posting: “Old TV died, got newfangled LED TV. Shocked how bad/fake movies look! … Others have this prob?”
Solutions to Skloot’s technological melodrama rolled in. A few hours later, she posted: “Thx 4 fixing my TV today! It’s an example of how Google = in trouble. Googled 4 fix, got spam sites. On Twitter answer = asap.” See Google / A5

Technology scene undergoes revival in the nation’s capital By Hannah Seligson New York Times News Service
Last year, Sean Glass was ready to return to the United States after living in London to start an online gambling firm that ended up folding. After selling off the company’s assets, he wanted to settle in a city with vibrant entrepreneurial and venture capital communities and considered all the usual hubs: Silicon Valley, Boston, New York, Austin, Texas, and Raleigh, N.C. But in July, Glass, 31, and his wife moved to Washington, D.C. “There’s a phenomenal pool of engineers, and the quality of life is great,” Glass said. Now he is a venture partner at Novak Biddle, a venture capital firm based in Washington, and he recently started Employ Insight, a software company that helps employers with the hiring process. People like Glass are harbingers of Washington’s second technology incarnation. The first wave was in the mid-1990s, with giants like AOL and Network Solutions choosing the area as their base. Now their younger siblings are setting up shop. Leading the way are the big players like LivingSocial, the shopping site that is projected to have revenue of $500 million this year; Clearspring, the Web content-sharing platform; and Opower, an energy efficiency software company that raised $50 million in third-round financing. There are scrappy up-and-comers, too, as Zvi Band, 26, founder of skeevisArts, a Web design and
development firm, and Michael Mayernick, also 26, co-founder of Spinnakr, a Web platform that enables donations, have tried to document. Band and Mayernick started proudlymadeindc.com last December to showcase that there is more to the Beltway than lawyers, lobbyists and lawmakers. “We kept having the conversation with people who would say, ‘I didn’t know there were so many startups in D.C.,’” Mayernick said. The site is a snapshot of the blossoming technology scene in a region that includes Washington, Northern Virginia and Maryland. “Many of these companies didn’t exist three or four years ago,” Band said. Among the 118 companies featured on the site, up from 40 in December, are HotPads, a mapbased real estate search engine, HelloWallet, an independent personal finance website, and SB Nation, an online network of sports communities.
New companies, new investment Philippe Chetrit, director of Affinity Lab, a shared workspace for entrepreneurs located in the U Street neighborhood of Northwest Washington, says that entrepreneurial momentum in the city is building. Fifty businesses are operating out of Affinity Lab’s 4,000-square-foot space, twice as many as a year ago, he said. Nationally, the Washington area ranks eighth when it comes
to venture capital dollars invested, ahead of hubs like Seattle and Denver, according to the National Venture Capital Association. Narrowing it down to venture capital investing in information technology, the area ranks sixth, just behind Boston and the New York metro area. “There is this whole new generation of companies that aren’t just playing to the typical D.C. niches of government and health care,” said Tige Savage, who started Revolution, an investment firm based in Washington, along with Donn Davis and Steve Case, co-founder of AOL. “They might come to D.C. to work for the government or a contractor, but are often eager to start their own companies,” he said. Many credit the Obama presidency for making Washington “cool” again for the under-30 set. But what else is putting the capital city on the startup map? For one thing, there is a wellspring of technical expertise — all those engineers and developers who come to Washington to test missiles and write GPS software for the military. “Staffing is one the biggest challenges for any company, and being in D.C. has given us an edge in terms of attracting the top people,” said Tim O’Shaughnessy, cofounder of LivingSocial. “Being a big fish in a small pond, we’ve become the destination for people in this area looking to work at a consumer website.” There is also the visibility that comes with being a city that has
At Flickr, fending off speculation and competition from Facebook By Verne G. Kopytoff New York Times News Service
SAN FRANCISCO — Rumors in technology circles that Yahoo might close or sell Flickr, its photo-sharing service, prompted an emphatic denial this month. “Is Yahoo committed to Flickr?” Blake Irving, Yahoo’s product chief, wrote in a message on Twitter. “Hell yes we are!” The confusion over Flickr’s future was perhaps understandable. Yahoo had just recently disclosed plans to shut down or otherwise dispose of several other Web products, including the bookmarking service Delicious, and some users feared Flickr would be next. A pioneer in combining photos with social networking features, Flickr is facing a stiff challenge from newer services. In addition to fighting rumors, it is having to
work hard to keep its users returning as Facebook widens its lead as the popular destination for sharing party, vacation and family snapshots. Although Flickr is well known and still widely used, its traffic is shrinking. Unique visitors to Flickr in the United States fell 16 percent, to 21.3 million, in December compared with a year earlier, according to comScore. Meanwhile, for that same time frame, use of Facebook’s photo features grew 92 percent, to 123.9 million users. Other than the recent support on Twitter, Yahoo’s top executives have barely mentioned Flickr publicly for some time. Few top executives actually have a public Flickr account. No one questions Flickr’s appeal to photographers who post, admire and comment on a
wealth of artistic images, many of which are magazine quality. Where Flickr is faltering is with people who want to store and share more mundane snapshots. Convenient for sharing with friends, Facebook offers free unlimited storage and an increasingly competitive product. Facebook’s dominance in photos stems from its appeal to consumers on several fronts, according to Jordan Rohan, an analyst with Stifel, Nicolaus & Co. Visiting Facebook is a daily ritual for many people, but that simply is not the case with Flickr. “The Internet is starting to rotate around the axis of Facebook — not everything, but everything social,” Rohan said. “Yahoo and Flickr don’t really have the gravitational pull that would make Flickr the axis that they once imagined.”
not yet become known as a tech hot spot. In October, Ryan Healy, 26, relocated his startup, Brazen Careerist, a career social networking site for people in their 20s, from Madison, Wis., to McLean, Va. Healy said the company had won attention from investors and media outlets just for moving to the area. “That wouldn’t happen in other cities,” he said. Ed Barrientos, 45, chief executive of Brazen Careerist, has invested $4.5 million in seven companies based in the Washington area since the mid-1990s. He chose the area over others because the competition for investors was not as stiff. “The value of investing in a place like D.C. is that you can find a company doing extremely cool stuff, but still get a fair valuation,” he said. One challenge, Mayernick said, is that there was not yet that hard-core entrepreneurial culture where it is common to work for equity instead of pay. “People are so used to steady paychecks in this town,” he said. Whether Washington can sustain its entrepreneurial momentum remains to be seen. Brad Feld, managing director of Foundry Group, the venture capital firm based in Boulder, Colo., sees Washington as three or four years into a new cycle, making it a wobbly toddler. “Ten years from now will be the test,” he said. “It’s taken real energy, over time, to create a sustainable entrepreneurial community. Will all these people still be here in a decade?”
SEOUL, South Korea — South Korea’s technology czar was meeting with reporters a few weeks ago when talk turned to smart phones and the choice faced by tens of millions of tech-savvy consumers here: whether to buy Apple Inc.’s iPhone 4 or Samsung Electronics Co.’s Galaxy S. Hwang Chang-gyu admitted that he owned both phones. Then he dropped a bombshell: He actually preferred his iPhone, calling it “more convenient” than its homegrown competitor. “The reason we couldn’t make a smart phone like iPhone is that we don’t know how to shoot ahead,” he said. Hwang’s comments were seen as a heresy in a country that considers itself an international leader in consumer electronics. Not only does he oversee government research and development, but he also is a former chief executive of Samsung Electronics, which makes mobile phones. After a buzz in the local media, Hwang issued a retraction stressing Samsung’s competitiveness. The reaction speaks volumes about South Korea’s high-stakes smart-phone war, one that Samsung — and some say the South Korean government itself — has no intention of losing. The northeast Asian nation is among the phone industry’s most fertile markets, with 45 million cellular users among a population of 49 million. Although smart phones — devices that can be used to surf the Web and play games and video — represent a relatively small share of mobile phone sales, analysts say the growth potential is enormous. As the world’s largest technology company, Samsung is accustomed to waging relentless assaults on foreign markets. What it is less used to, analysts say, is fending off a bold offensive by a foreign competitor invading its lucrative home turf with a breakthrough product. Apple rolled out its iPhone 4 here last September and by the end of the year had sold 1.8 million units, nearly catching up to Samsung’s Galaxy S, which launched more than two months earlier and has tallied 2 million in sales, according to South Korean news reports.

T S Opposition in Egypt begins to unify around ElBaradei With unrest, the economy is suffering New York Times News Service ALEXANDRIA, Egypt — An army tank stands guard at the port of Alexandria to make sure no one gets in. The bigger problem is that next to nothing is going out. For four days now, containers arriving on ships have been stacking up at Egypt’s largest port, shipping company employees and truck drivers here said. With distribution networks barely functioning and the Internet down since Thursday night, much of business in Egypt has nearly ground to a halt. While protests remain at the center of attention, as jets fly over Liberation Square and escaped prisoners instill fear in the public, the political crisis could turn into a humanitarian one if the current economic paralysis continues. “A big part of the production system is government-run, and this is frozen, including many of the bakeries making the subsidized bread,” said Hoda Youssef, an economist at the Arab Forum for Alternatives, an independent think tank, and a lecturer at Cairo University. “Here in the short term — today, tomorrow, the coming few days — we might have a serious problem with shortages of food, water and fuel,” Youssef said. Egypt was not a country with a wide margin between normalcy and crisis to begin with; it has long been susceptible to price pressures and rioting. And on Sunday there was anecdotal evidence that food prices were already rising. At one Alexandria market in the western neighborhood of Agamy, the price of onions on Sunday had risen to about 60 cents for a kilogram, or about 2 pounds’ worth, from 25 cents. Tomatoes were up to about 85 cents a kilogram, from a quarter, and the price of a kilogram of beans had risen fivefold to about $1.70 from 35 cents.

CAIRO — Egypt’s powerful Muslim Brotherhood and the secular opposition banded together Sunday around a prominent government critic to negotiate for forces seeking the fall of President Hosni Mubarak, as the army struggled to hold a capital seized by fears of chaos and buoyed by euphoria that three decades of Mubarak’s rule may be coming to an end. The announcement that the critic, Mohamed ElBaradei, would represent a loosely unified opposition reconfigured the struggle between Mubarak’s government and a six-day-old uprising bent on driving him and his party from power. Though lacking deep support on his own, ElBaradei, a Nobel laureate and diplomat, could serve as a consensus figure for a movement that has struggled to articulate a program for a potential transition. It suggested, too, that the opposition was aware of the uprising’s image abroad, putting forth a candidate who might be more acceptable to the West than beloved in Egypt. In scenes as tumultuous as any since the uprising began, ElBaradei defied a government curfew and joined thousands of protesters in Liberation Square, a downtown landmark that has become the center of the uprising and a platform, writ small, for the frustrations, ambitions and resurgent pride of a generation claiming the country’s mantle. “Today we are proud of Egyptians,” ElBaradei told throngs who surged toward him in a square festooned with banners calling for Mubarak’s fall. “We have restored our rights, restored our freedom and what have begun cannot be reversed.” ElBaradei declared it a “new era,” and as night fell there were few in Egypt who seemed to disagree. ElBaradei also criticized the Obama administration. “It’s better for President Obama not to appear that he is the last one to say to President Mubarak, it’s time for you to go,” ElBaradei said. The Interior Ministry announced it would again deploy once-ubiquitous police forces — despised by many as the symbol of the daily humiliations of Mubarak’s government — across the country, except in Liberation Square. In a collapse of authority, the police had withdrawn from major

MOFFETT FIELD, Calif. — In a building at NASA’s Ames Research Center here, computers are sifting and resifting the light from 156,000 stars, seeking to find in the flickering of distant suns the first hints that humanity is not alone in the universe. The stars are being monitored by a $600 million satellite observatory named Kepler, whose job is to conduct a kind of Gallup poll of worlds in the cosmos. On Wednesday, Kepler’s astronomers are scheduled to unveil a closely kept list of 400 stars that are their brightest and best bets so far for harboring planets, some of which could turn out to be the smallest and most Earthlike worlds discovered out there to date. They represent the first glimpse of riches to come in a quest that is as old as the imagination and as new as the iPad. Over the next two or three years, as Kepler continues to stare and sift, astronomers say, it will be able to detect planets in the “Goldilocks” zones, where it is neither too hot nor too cold for liquid water. “What we want is to find life,” said Geoffrey Marcy, an astronomer at the University of California, Berkeley, who is part of the Kepler team.

Egyptian Nobel Peace laureate and democracy advocate Mohamed ElBaradei addresses the crowd Sunday at Tahrir Square in Cairo. cities on Saturday, giving free rein to gangs that stole and burned cars, looted shops and ransacked a mall. Thousands of inmates poured out of four prisons, including the country’s most notorious, Abu Zaabal and Wadi Natroun. Checkpoints run by the military and neighborhoods, sometimes spaced just a block apart, proliferated across Cairo and other cities in a bid to restore order. Meanwhile, in Washington, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton on Sunday called for “an orderly transition” to a more politically open Egypt, stopping short of telling its embattled president, Hosni Mubarak, to step down but clearly laying the groundwork for his departure.
Clinton, making a round of Sunday talk shows, insisted that Mubarak’s future was up to the Egyptian people. But she said on “State of the Union” on CNN that the United States stood “ready to help with the kind of transition that will lead to greater political and economic freedom.” And she emphasized that elections scheduled for this fall must be free and fair. President Barack Obama reinforced that message in phone calls Saturday and Sunday to other leaders in the region, including King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, as the administration tried to contain the regional reverberations.
Myanmar reopens parliament for first time since the 1980s New York Times News Service BANGKOK — Myanmar’s ruling generals earlier today convened the first meeting of Parliament in more than two decades, a move they say completes the impoverished country’s transition to a multiparty democracy. Reporters were barred from the Parliament building when the session was convened this morning under tight security in the capital, Naypyidaw, the Associated Press reported. Officially the opening of the two-chamber Parliament will mean the dissolution of the junta that has ruled Myanmar
since 1988, when the country was known as Burma. But it does not appear to be the dawn of unfettered democracy. A quarter of the seats are reserved for the military, and a military-backed party controls more than 80 percent of the rest, allowing the generals to effectively retain their power, albeit in a less hierarchical system. “The military is staying in control, but some of them are taking off their uniforms,” said Win Min, a professor at Payap University in Thailand who is on leave in the United States.

off the ground, said recently in an interview in his office: “I’ve argued that Kepler is more important than the Hubble Space Telescope. We provide the data mankind needs to move out into space.” Kepler is only the first step in a process that experts agree will take decades. Right now, humans cannot even summon the money or political will to get back to the moon, let alone set sail for another star. It would take 300,000 years for Voyager 1, now on the way out of the solar system at 39,000 mph, to travel the 20 light-years, or 120 trillion miles, to Gliese 581, one of the nearest planetary systems; Kepler’s planets are from 500 to 3,000 light-years away. Borucki likes to compare the quest for other worlds to the building of the great cathedrals, a task handed from generation to generation of believers. And what if we finally find what we are looking for? “The fact that we find lots of Earths just means that we have to spend a lot more money to build the next mission and go and find out if they speak English or French,” Borucki said. If we are alone, on the other hand, “maybe we’re going to go conquer the whole galaxy,” he said. “Nobody’s out there to stop us.”
Police: Man arrested at mosque with explosives acted alone The Associated Press DETROIT — A 63-year-old Southern California man who was traveling with explosives in his vehicle with the intention of blowing up one of the nation’s largest mosques where mourners had gathered for a funeral was arrested in the Detroit suburb of Dearborn, Michigan authorities said Sunday. Dearborn police said Roger Stockham was arraigned Wednesday on one count of making a false report or threat of terrorism and one count of possessing explosives with an unlawful intent. Stockham had a large but undisclosed quantity of class-

Haddad said Stockham was arrested Monday evening without incident in the parking lot of Islamic Center of America, while a large group was gathered inside. He said police received a 911 call from a resident. Haddad said authorities believe Stockham was acting alone but still take him “very seriously.”

Continued from A1 “It felt very comfortable, and it did not feel unsafe. So it’s a little bit strange to be watching this on the news.” The daughter of an Egyptian father and American mother, El-Attar was born in Egypt and moved the U.S. when she was 4. The family moved to Pennsylvania, and while El-Attar’s parents still live there during the summer months, they spend their winters in the Cairo suburb of Heliopolis. It’s the same suburb Mubarak lives in when he’s in Cairo. El-Attar, 44, said that when she spoke with her parents on Sunday, she was told they were all right. The neighborhood where they live has been relatively calm when compared with other parts of the city. But in Cairo, with a bustling population of 18 million people that normally makes silence something to be desired, they told her it had been “eerily quiet.” “They seem to think that it’s not going to get so bad that they’re going to have to come back” to the U.S., El-Attar said. “I feel a little more anxious about that, and maybe that’s because they’re there and I’m here.” El-Attar said she, her brother and sister have been in near-constant contact with their parents ever since the uprising began. If her brother calls their parents, then he calls El-Attar and her sister. If El-Attar calls, it’s her that tells her siblings. Getting in touch hasn’t always been easy. El-Attar said that when she tried to call Sat-
Continued from A1 Salazar’s directive calls on the BLM to come up with a plan for finding areas that have “wilderness characteristics” — such as being largely unaffected by human development — within six months. The move is necessary, Salazar said, because unspoiled areas are becoming increasingly rare. “In an increasingly developed world, public lands with wilderness characteristics provide social, cultural, economic, scientific and ecological benefits for present and future generations,” Salazar wrote. The directive did not specify what activities would be allowed in the new Wild Lands, but Wilderness Study Areas, which are similar, are off-limits to grazing, road construction, new mines and some OHV use. Environmental groups had a more positive view of the decision. Although Oregon’s wilderness areas were inventoried about 20 years ago, there are still places that deserve a second look, said Tim Lillebo, Eastern Oregon representative for the conservation group Oregon Wild. “There’s maybe several million more acres (in Oregon) that should be inventoried and looked at through that policy,” Lillebo said. He cited the proposed Owyhee Canyonlands Wilderness, in Southeast Oregon, as one area that could benefit from the new Interior policy. Officials at the Bend-based Oregon

“It felt very comfortable, and it did not feel unsafe. So it’s a little bit strange to be watching this on the news,” says Suzanne El-Attar, of Madras, who visited Egypt with her family last month. urday night, she wasn’t able to get through on the phone lines, something she thought might be related to the governmentimposed curfew. “I’m just kind of paying attention to the news and trying to keep in touch with them every couple of days to make sure they’re OK,” she said. It’s been difficult for El-Attar and her husband, David Evans, who is also a physician, to explain to their two young children what’s been happening in Egypt.
She said the kids, Benjamin, who is 10, and Samira, 7, have been asking a lot of questions about the protests, including one at the dinner table about why the Egyptians weren’t allowed to pick their own government. “It was a good discussion,” ElAttar said. “I think they need to know.” Her parents, meanwhile, are trying to keep a low profile while they’re in Cairo. They don’t go out after curfew and don’t participate in the protests.
Opposition Continued from A1 In the process, their informal clique would become the effective leaders of a decades-old opposition movement previously dominated by figures more than twice their age. “Most of us are under 30,” said Amr Ezz, a 27-year-old lawyer who was one of the group as part of the April 6 Youth Movement, which organized protests on Tuesday via Facebook. They were surprised and delighted to see that more than 90,000 people signed up online to participate, emboldening others to turn out and bringing tens of thousands of mostly young people into the streets. Surprised by the turnout, older opposition leaders from across the spectrum — including the outlawed Muslim Brotherhood; the liberal protest group the Egyptian Movement for Change, known by its slogan, “Enough”; and the umbrella group organized by ElBaradei — joined in, vowing to turn out their supporters for another day of protest on Friday. But the same handful of young online organizers were still calling the shots.
Pouring into the streets They decided to follow a blueprint similar to Tuesday’s, urging protesters to converge on the central Liberation Square. So they drew up a list of selected mosques around Cairo where they asked people to gather at Friday Prayer before marching together toward the square. Then they distributed the list through e-mail and text messages, which spread virally. They even told ElBaradei, returning to Cairo from Vienna for the protests, which mosque he should attend, people involved in the demonstrations said. The results far exceeded all expectations. More than 100,000 people poured out into the streets of the capital, forging ahead against battalions of riot police for hours, until the police all but abandoned the city. The demonstrations were echoed across the country. “What we were hoping for is to have the same turnout as the 25th, so we wouldn’t lose the numbers we had already managed to mobilize,” Ezz said. The huge uprising has stirred speculation about whether Egypt’s previously fractious opposition could unite to capitalize on the new momentum, and about just who would lead the nascent political movement. The major parties and players in the Egyptian opposition met throughout the day Sunday to address those questions, ultimately selecting a committee led by ElBaradei to negotiate directly with the Egyptian military over forming a transition government, and settling on an interim strategy that some activists are calling “hug a soldier” to try to win the army’s rank and file over to their side. But both newcomers and veterans of the opposition movement say it is the young Internet pioneers who re-
That doesn’t mean they don’t agree with what’s happening, El-Attar said. They support the rebellion, just as she does. “I think the Egyptian people have a right to decide what kind of government they want,” El-Attar said. “It’s too bad that it has to come to this level to make action happen. But I don’t think the intent behind it is wrong.” Nick Grube can be reached at 541-633-2160 or at ngrube@bendbulletin.com.
Ezz said the group also discussed future tactics, including strikes, civil disobedience and a vigil for dead protesters, as well as music performances and speakers in Liberation Square. Others briefed on the meeting said that the group had also settled on the “hug a soldier” strategy. With signs that the military appeared divided between support for the president and the protesters, these people said, the group decided to encourage demonstrators to emphasize their faith and trust in the soldiers.

Three women gesture for victory as they attend a demonstration Sunday in Cairo. Egypt’s protests, beginning with crowds of mostly young demonstrators taking to the streets, have now been joined by older opposition leaders. main at the vanguard behind the scenes. “The young people are still leading this,” said Ibrahim Issa, a prominent opposition intellectual who attended some of the meetings. And the older figures, most notably ElBaradei, have so far readily accepted the young activists’ lead. “He has been very responsive,” Issa said. “He is very keen on being the symbol, and not being a leader.” After signs that President Hosni Mubarak’s government might be toppling, leaders of Egypt’s opposition — old and new — met throughout the day Sunday to prepare for the next steps. The first meeting was a gathering of the so-called shadow parliament, formed by older critics of the government after blatantly rigged parliamentary elections last fall. Those elections eliminated almost every one of the small minority of seats held by critics of Mubarak, including 88 occupied by Muslim Brotherhood members. Among those present were many representatives of the Brotherhood, the former presidential candidate Ayman Nour and representatives of ElBaradei’s umbrella group, the National Association for Change, which has been working for nearly a year to unite the opposition around demands for free elections. At the end of the meeting, they had settled on a consensus list of 10 people they would delegate to manage a potential unity government if Mubarak resigned. And though the religiously conservative Brotherhood was strong in the alternative parliament, the group nonetheless put ElBaradei at the top of its list, in part, officials of the Brotherhood said, because he would present an unthreatening face to both the West and to more liberal groups within Egypt. A second meeting, at the headquarters of the Wafd Party, brought together the four tiny but legally recognized opposition parties, groups that Mubarak critics often accuse of collaborating with the ruling party in sham elections that create a facade of democracy. But they were deadlocked. One party, the Democratic Front, insisted they demand that Mubarak resign immediately, like protesters were doing in the streets. The other three wanted a less confrontational statement,
people briefed on the outcome said. The third meeting took place late in the afternoon outdoors, in Liberation Square, the center of the protests for the last several days, said Issa, who participated. It was brought together mainly by the young activists, organized as the April 6 Youth Movement, after the date a textile workers’ strike was crushed three years ago, and We Are All Khalid Said after the name of a young man whose death in a brutal police beating was captured in a photograph circulated over the Internet. But the meeting also brought together about 25 older figures, including opposition intellectuals like Issa. Also present were representatives of ElBaradei’s National Association for Change, which includes officials of the Muslim Brotherhood.
Following youth Issa and people briefed on that meeting said the tone was focused mainly on following the lead of the young organizers who started it all. Those organizers, Ezz and Issa said, knew that the uprising had now acquired a life of its own beyond their direction, spread and coordinated by television coverage instead of the Internet. And they knew that they needed more experienced help, Ezz said. “Leadership has to come out of the people who are already out there, because most of us are under 30,” he said, “But now they recognize that we’re in the street, and they are taking us seriously.” The group’s goal now, Ezz said, was to guide the demands the protesters put forward to the government, chief among them the resignation of Mubarak, formation of a unity government, and amendments to the Constitution to allow for free elections. The group settled firmly on ElBaradei, consulting with a group of other opposition figures, to lead any negotiations, both internally and abroad, Issa said. Specifically, he said, the group expected ElBaradei to represent the protesters to the United States, a crucial ally and benefactor, and in negotiations with the Egyptian Army, which the group expected to play the pivotal role in the coming days and weeks.
Natural Desert Association, which sent a statement in support of Salazar’s announcement, couldn’t be reached for comment on Friday. The group has pushed the Owyhee as a future wilderness area. Lillebo also rejected the idea that Salazar’s directive represents a major break with past federal lands policy. “It’s simply the status quo of what has been around since, gosh, the 1990s,” Lillebo said. “We don’t quite understand the shrillness of some of the people who are concerned about it.” Walden said past experience with the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument taught him and Southern Oregonians to be wary of protecting lands without gaining widespread community support. In 2000, President Bill Clinton created the monument out of 52,000 acres of land. But the new monument was put in place on lands where ranchers already held grazing rights. It took 9 years and Congressional action to resolve the problem, by paying those ranchers to retire the grazing rights. “They make the declaration, they get their headline and you’ve got a heck of a mess to try and go fix afterward,” Walden said. “That’s not my style of public policy.” Keith Chu can be reached at 202-662-7456 or at kchu@bendbulletin.com.

Winter Continued from A1 But typically, the water now filling up reservoirs would have flowed down rivers in May or June, when it would help out farmers and ranchers, he said. “Basically a lot of that water we’re seeing right now is water that we would normally like to see during irrigation season,” Johnson said. While it was rainy in the mountains in January, in Bend it was drier than average, said Marilyn Lohmann, hydrologist with the National Weather Service in Pendleton. In Bend, the precipitation for the month up to Friday was 0.78 inches, she said, compared with an average of 1.76 inches. And the temperature was a little above average as well for the month — the average daily high was 44.5, said Rob Brooks,
Google Continued from A1 Skloot’s story seems ever more common these days. Google is facing withering criticism from tech bloggers and search engine experts who say the world’s premier gateway to digital information is increasingly being gamed by spammers. Google, they say, is losing. One tech blogger, the wellknown iPhone app developer Marco Arment, wrote a post about “Google’s decreasingly useful, spam-filled web search.” Another blog offered a piece titled “On the increasing uselessness of Google.” Yet another headline spoke of “Trouble in the House of Google.” Data seem to back them up. Google’s success rate, as measured by the percentage of users visiting a Web site after executing a search, fell 13 percent last year, according to Experian Hitwise, which monitors Web traffic. Microsoft’s Bing search engine increased its search efficiency by 9 percent over the same period. Although there could be several reasons for the disparity, one is most certainly spam in Google’s results, analysts said. “It’s clear that Google is losing some kind of war with the spammers,” said tech guru Tim O’Reilly, who often cheers Google’s technology. “I think Google has in some ways taken their eye off the ball, and I’d be worried about it if I were them.” Google recently responded with its own blog post, acknowledging some problems and promising to fix them. “Reading through some of these recent articles, you might ask whether our search quality has gotten worse,” the statement said. “The short answer is that according to the evaluation metrics that we’ve refined over more than a decade, Google’s search quality is better than it has ever been in terms of relevance, freshness and comprehensiveness. . . . However, we have seen a slight uptick of spam in recent months, and while we’ve already made progress, we have new efforts underway to continue to improve our search quality.” Google’s predicament, analysts say, comes at a critical moment in the life of the Internet. The company generates billions of dollars in revenue from search ads. But social networks such as Twitter and Facebook offer people the ability to gather information online the way we always have offline — by asking people we know. Studies show we often give greater trust to information gathered from sources we know than from those we don’t. The pool of people who could answer our questions online is growing fast.

forecaster with the National Weather Service. Still, the temperature fluctuated through this month. “It’s been up and down all month,” he said. “You went from being 24 (degrees) at the beginning of the month to 42 by the 8th.” Thursday’s high in Redmond, 61 degrees, tied a record for that city set in 1984. The warm weather has caused plants from flower bulbs to chives to wake up, said Duane Schiedler, who with his wife Julie owns Celebrate the Season, a gardening store. “This is January — it feels like March,” Duane Schiedler said. “If it keeps this up, we won’t have a winter.” He recommends covering garden beds with mulch, to insulate the soil and keep it cold, at least until March. “Most of the soil right now is going to be fairly frozen, and
you want to keep it that way,” he said. At Mt. Bachelor, skiers have been enjoying the spring-like conditions, said Andy Goggins, director of marketing and communications for the ski resort. The start of the year saw a base of 100 inches, he said, and after rainy weather in the middle of the month, the snow depth mid-mountain is currently around 93 inches. The groomers have been working on the slopes every night, he said, and the meltfreeze temperature cycles have left a softer type of snow that Goggins said was second only to powder for skiing. “We’re excited to see the return of winter up here, but we’ve been enjoying the sunny conditions,” Goggins said.

spend more than 20 percent of their time online using social networks. Last year, with more than 500 million users, Facebook topped Google as the world’s most visited Web site. (Washington Post Co. Chairman Donald Graham is on Facebook’s board of directors.) While millions of people still use Google every day with no problems, I now see requests in my Twitter and Facebook feeds for things I once Googled: opinions on new cars, the best home repair person, the best place to eat, how to find a developer for iPhone apps. When I asked a friend on Facebook why she turned to her friends for new-car ratings, she replied: “facebook makes me smile b/c everyone has opinions about everything. i thought that, in this case, the opinions would actually be helpful. i can’t read big google search findings b/c i have no patience.” Many Internet analysts wonder whether the new spam-fighting effort, although needed, is beside the point. “We have kind of stretched the usefulness of search engine algorithms for surfacing the kind of specific content we are looking for,” said William Tancer, general manager of global research for Experian Hitwise. The future, many believe, is social search. Microsoft, which is a major investor in Facebook, can scour a searcher’s own Facebook account on every query. Facebook, noting an increase in users who ask for information in their status updates, is testing a new function called Facebook Questions. “If we notice a lot of people using a feature in a particular way, that’s when we consider specializing a product for that need,” said Brett Taylor, Facebook’s chief technology officer. “Anyone can answer your

question, which means you can tap into the collective knowledge of the millions of people on Facebook,” the company says on a Web page explaining the new tool. Answers that users rate as high quality can then be highlighted beyond a user’s own social network, pushing answers from one network of people to many, many others. A hot start-up called Quora is following a similar questionand-answer model. Meanwhile, Google is also working on social search, with co-founder Sergey Brin reportedly heading up the effort. He recently said the company has scratched just one percent of what social search could be. Google already searches Twitter alongside classic Web page searches. Users signed in on a Google account will also see results such as images or status updates from their contacts. Some information from Facebook is included, but nothing from a user’s account. Google spent $50 million last year to buy a company called Aardvark that lets users send questions to people in their social networks. If those friends can’t answer the question, it is sent on to friends of friends. Answers are delivered, often immediately, via instant message or e-mail. I gave it a try last week. I have a nasty case of sciatica and might need to start walking at my desk while I work. I asked Aardvark: “What is the best way to set up a treadmill desk? I want to put a treadmill under my desk sometimes.” One smart aleck quickly answered, “Does your desk need some exercise?” But a few minutes later, I got an instant message from someone named Adam K. in Cranberry, Pa., offering a collection of Web links. “Was Adam’s answer helpful?” Aardvark asked. I clicked yes.
12 years on, tobacco suit due in court New York Times News Service A big tobacco case is set to start today in St. Louis involving dozens of local hospitals, the nation’s biggest tobacco companies and 12 years’ worth of filings that fill 43 boxes in the city’s towering limestone courthouse. But it has attracted little of the intense interest that once surrounded lawsuits against major cigarette producers — a sign, specialists say, that a tumultuous period of tobacco litigation is winding down after more than a decade with little financial damage to the industry. The St. Louis lawsuit, which is seeking to recover costs for the treatment of smoking-related diseases, was filed by the hospitals in 1998. That year also was the high
point of tobacco litigation, as state attorneys general struck a $206 billion deal with cigarette makers to settle lawsuits they had filed to recover costs related to smoking. That settlement, legal specialists said, helped reshape how tobacco companies did business, such as leading to an end to cigarette advertising in the United States. But more broadly, they said, the tidal wave of tobacco cases brought by smokers and others has failed to significantly weaken the industry, which continues to generate large revenues, remains a potent political force and has shifted its aggressive promotional activities overseas. Nationwide, thousands of actions brought by smokers are pending, and it will be years or
decades before the last one is tried and appealed. But the St. Louis trial belongs to a genre of lawsuits — like the state attorneys generals’ case — that smoking opponents once hoped would deliver a body blow to the tobacco industry, by requiring producers to pay third parties for the toll their products had taken. Over time, dozens of such lawsuits were filed on behalf of unions, pension funds and even foreign governments. However, only two of those cases made it to trial, specialists said. The St. Louis case may be the last of its kind to go to trial, said Edward Sweda Jr., a lawyer with the Tobacco Industry Liability Project at the Northeastern University School of Law in Boston.

Bend wants more out of software “It meets our needs in terms of providing day-to-day transactions, but that’s all it does, and we need it to do more.” — Sonia Andrews, Bend finance director
Study to look at revamp of aging operations system; upgrade could cost up to $500,000 By Nick Grube The Bulletin
The computer system the city of Bend uses for all of its basic operations, from tracking the nickels and dimes in its budget to tallying up utility bills for customers, is nearly two decades old.
City employees said it’s based on a sort of “green screen” technology that to an outside observer would be reminiscent of the old MS-DOS environment of the ’80s, where various commands are entered as text on a black background to process data.
The city is in the process of hiring an outside consultant to perform an assessment of its information technology needs for the future. This study could cost as much as $100,000, and in addition to looking for new software or programs to update the current system, it will look at the organization of the city’s information technology department to make sure it is operating effi-
ciently and delivering services effectively. “The world has moved on,” Bend Finance Director Sonia Andrews said of the city’s computer software. “It meets our needs in terms of providing day-to-day transactions, but that’s all it does, and we need it to do more. We are ready for an upgrade to something more powerful.” See Software / B5

WEATHER
Area can expect another dry week By Nick Grube The Bulletin
Central Oregonians can prepare for much of the same this week when it comes to the weather. Much like last week, the coming days are expected to be clear and sunny, with hardly any chance of snow or rainfall. The only difference people are likely to experience is a change in temperature, as cool air blows into the area and a high-pressure system pushes it downward. “The last air mass that came was a warmer air mass that helped it warm up,” said Rob Brooks, an National Weather Service forecaster out of Pendleton. “This is just a colder one behind the system that’s coming in and cooling it down.” Starting today, daytime temperatures are expected to be in the 30s, with an uptick into the 40s starting around Wednesday. Nighttime temperatures, however, are expected to dip into the teens or single digits today and Tuesday, and not rise into the 20s until Thursday. See Weather / B5

Two-thirds of the roughly 12,000-square-foot building is dedicated to a multipurpose room, which would also be improved in the renovations. Justin Cutler, director of the La Pine parks, said it appears the district could proceed with financing the first $500,000 of improvements, while waiting to seek out grants or other funding sources to complete the rest of the work later. The first stage would be financed through a loan, which the district expects to pay back through user fees and property taxes. In early 2009, the park district won voter approval for a dedicated property tax, providing its first source of reliable funding in 20 years. The park district settled on its current plan for the building following a public process in late 2009 and early 2010, culminating in the adoption of a draft plan in April 2010. See Renovation / B5

The Bend Fire Department plans to use a federal grant to hire three new paramedic/firefighters this year, but the future of the new positions is uncertain. A $612,182 grant from the Department of Homeland Security will cover all salary and benefits for the positions — but only for two years. Funding for the positions beyond that is, said deputy fire chief Mark Taylor, “a question mark.” Taylor said applicants for the positions will be advised that their jobs are only funded for two years, though it’s possible the department could find a way to keep the new hires on full-time. “We know the public safety committee has made some recommendations on funding,” Taylor said. “The economy’s got two years to start picking up, there may be retirements taking place in that time, there may be enough attrition that they remain.”

Tour gives young athletes in winter sports a chance for spot on national stage By Nick Grube The Bulletin
Seventeen-year-old Bend resident J.D. Dennis came a little closer to his dream of becoming a professional snowboarder this weekend. On Saturday and Sunday, J.D., who graduated this month from Mountain View High School, competed in the Winter Gatorade Free Flow Tour, which is a ski and snowboard contest that pits individuals ages 21 and younger against each other in slopestyle and halfpipe events in which they try to gain the most altitude or perform the best tricks to impress the judges.
Winners bound for finals in Utah Since J.D. took first place in one of the slopestyle events, he will now get a free ride to the Free Flow Tour Finals in Ogden, Utah, on Feb. 12 and 13, to compete against others who won at similar events across the country. If he wins in Utah, he gets a shot at riding with the professionals during the preliminary round of the 2011-12 Winter Dew Tour. “It’s awesome,” J.D. said. “It’s a great way to get yourself out there.” See Tour / B5

On the Web Results from the Winter Free Flow Tour will be posted early this week at www.allisports .com/winter -gatorade-freeflow-tour.
Equipment and training for the new hires will be paid for by the Bend Fire Department, Taylor said. The fire department currently employs 66 paramedic/firefighters. Taylor said the department tries to keep a minimum of 18 paramedic/firefighters on duty at any given time, which can be difficult with some employees out sick, others on vacation and three shifts per day. Currently, if staffing dips below 18 because of absenteeism, the department brings an offduty paramedic/firefighter on at overtime rates. Taylor said tight local government budgets around the country have created a glut of qualified paramedic/firefighters in need of a job.
Plenty of candidates “There are very few departments that are still hiring, (and) a lot of kids are still going through fire training school and paramedic training, so there will be a very deep candidate pool,” he said. “We’re advertising nationally, so we expect we’ll have a very good batch of people from which to choose three.” The SAFER grant — Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response — is distributing $420 million to fire departments around the country this year. Taylor said departments that were chosen for funding demonstrated a need for additional personnel based on current staffing levels and the population and size of their service areas. The department expects to have the three new employees hired and working by April 25. Scott Hammers can be reached at 541-383-0387 or shammers@bendbulletin.com.

UO on hook for as much as $2M for building gift The Associated Press EUGENE — A gift of a new football operations building from a billionaire benefactor to the University of Oregon won’t exactly be free. According to The RegisterGuard, the building from Nike Inc. chairman Phil Knight is going to cost the university athletic department. For example, costs include rerouting underground utilities — an estimated expense of between $1 million and $2 million. Knight’s agreement with the university requires that the work be done at the department’s expense before construction can begin. Costs to operate the building include five full-time positions, including a curator for a football hall of fame and museum that the athletic department is required to hire under the agreement with Knight. But athletics director Rob Mullens said the department can afford the work, and other expenses as well, if it draws millions from its reserve account. Plans call for a six-story, 100,000-square-foot building on the university’s growing sports campus. It could cost the athletic department as much as $1 million a year to run the building when costs for new personnel, utilities and other expenses are figured in. Department officials, however, cautioned that the figure is just an estimate and operation costs won’t be known for some time. The project also will result in the loss of more than 400 park-
ing spaces next to the stadium. That’s because the existing soccer/lacrosse field west of the Moshofsky Center will have to be moved to the east side of the stadium to make room for three football practice fields that Knight will create as part of the deal. Knight is paying for the new soccer/lacrosse field. Mullens supplied new financial projections to support his conclusion that the athletic department can afford the new building with an extra $8 million draw from the department’s big Legacy Fund reserve account. Mullens said the project is necessary to the continued success of the football program, which is coming off its firstever appearance in the national championship game and ended the season ranked No. 3. Football is the economic engine that drives the athletic department, he said. “It’s a good investment,” he said. “We’ve got to make sure we maintain that asset. Football generates between 60 and 70 percent of our (revenues), and this is an important next step.” UO Student Body President Amelie Rousseau said accepting the building doesn’t reflect what the university’s priorities should be. “In these economic times, why are we building these extravagant buildings?” she asked. “We don’t need athletic complexes. We need classrooms and residence halls. That’s what students need.”

Guy Fawkes executed for treason in 1606 T O D AY I N H I S T O R Y
The Associated Press Today is Monday, Jan. 31, the 31st day of 2011. There are 334 days left in the year. TODAY’S HIGHLIGHT IN HISTORY On Jan. 31, 1961, NASA launched Ham the Chimp aboard a Mercury-Redstone rocket from Cape Canaveral; Ham was recovered safely from the Atlantic Ocean following his 161⁄2 -minute suborbital flight. ON THIS DATE In 1606, Guy Fawkes, convicted of treason for his part in the “Gunpowder Plot” against the English Parliament and King James I, was executed. In 1865, Gen. Robert E. Lee was named general-in-chief of all the Confederate armies. In 1917, during World War I, Germany served notice that it was beginning a policy of unrestricted submarine warfare. In 1929, revolutionary Leon Trotsky and his family were expelled from the Soviet Union. In 1944, during World War II, U.S. forces began a successful invasion of Kwajalein Atoll and other parts of the Japanese-held Marshall Islands. In 1945, Pvt. Eddie Slovik, 24, became the first U.S. soldier since the Civil War to be executed for desertion as he was shot by an American firing squad in France.
In 1950, President Harry S. Truman announced he had ordered development of the hydrogen bomb. In 1958, the United States entered the Space Age with its first successful launch of a satellite into orbit, Explorer I. In 1971, astronauts Alan Shepard, Edgar Mitchell and Stuart Roosa blasted off aboard Apollo 14 on a mission to the moon. In 2000, an Alaska Airlines jet plummeted into the Pacific Ocean, killing all 88 people aboard. TEN YEARS AGO A Scottish court sitting in the Netherlands convicted one Libyan and acquitted a second in the 1988 bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland. (Abdel Basset Ali al-Megrahi was given a life sentence, but was released after eight years on compassionate grounds by Scotland’s government.) Without any fanfare, the state of Georgia hoisted its new flag above its statehouse, one featuring a smaller Confederate battle emblem. FIVE YEARS AGO In his State of the Union address, President George W. Bush declared that America had to break its long dependence on
Mideast oil and rebuked critics of his stay-the-course strategy for the unpopular war in Iraq. Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito was sworn in after winning Senate confirmation. The Senate approved Ben Bernanke as chairman of the Federal Reserve. ONE YEAR AGO The annual World Economic Forum concluded a five-day meeting in Davos, Switzerland, with widespread agreement that a fragile recovery was under way but no consensus on what was going to spur job growth. Roger Federer easily beat Andy Murray 6-3, 6-4, 7-6 (11) for a fourth Australian Open championship. The AFC beat the NFC 41-34 in the Pro Bowl, played ahead of the Super Bowl for the first time.

The Associated Press TACOMA, Wash. — The U.S. attorney’s office says a self-proclaimed white supremacist has been sentenced to 34 months in prison for a racially motivated attack on a black man in a Vancouver, Wash., sports bar last January. Prosecutors say 25-yearold Kory Boyd, of Vancouver, was among three men who accosted the victim at Captain’s Sports Bar. The U.S. attorney’s office says the men punched the victim, dragged him behind the bar and threw glass bottles at his head, yelling “White power!” and using a racial slur.
Boyd pleaded guilty Nov. 9 to interference with a federally protected right. He was sentenced Friday in federal court in Tacoma. Co-defendant Zachary Beck is scheduled for trial March 21. The other defendant, Lawrence Silk, has pleaded guilty to malicious harassment and been sentenced to two years in prison. The victim suffered minor injuries.

O Ashland a favorite for filmmakers Community support, state rebates help area land more projects
Jerry Turner, of Portland, first assistant cameraman, sets up for a scene in a house on Wimer Street in Ashland on Jan. 20. The house became a movie set last week as Oregon Shakespeare Festival actors dramatized Scott Blum’s upcoming feature film “Walk-In.”
By Hannah Guzik The Ashland Daily Tidings
ASHLAND — A house on Wimer Street became a movie set last week as Oregon Shakespeare Festival actors dramatized Scott Blum’s upcoming feature film “Walk-In.” Behind the cameras, lights and sound booms were five Ashland High School and Southern Oregon University graduates who have returned to the Rogue Valley in the past six months to work on film projects here as the industry grows. Ashland’s film industry experienced considerable growth last year, said Jackson Rowe, firstassistant director for “Walk-In.” “With the talent pool and the Shakespeare festival, it’s now a sweet spot for independent filmmaking,” he said. “As far as small towns in Oregon go, it’s definitely the most popular place to shoot, by far.” Rowe, 25, moved to Portland after graduating from Ashland High School to work as an assistant director on film projects. But, increasingly, work has brought him and his colleagues back to Ashland to shoot projects here, he said. “I’ve done about five or six feature films here now,” he said. “The work is coming in more and more often.” Blum, who moved from Los Angeles to Ashland five years ago, said the co-producers of his film originally wanted to shoot
Julia Moore Medford Mail Tribune
it in Southern California, but he convinced them to do otherwise. “I talked them into doing it here, and I think everybody’s happy we did, now that they’ve seen the quality and what we’ve been able to accomplish,” he said. “I really wanted to do it locally because the books are based here,” said Blum, who wrote and is directing the film, based on his novel “Summer’s Path.” “And we have the opportunity of all this talent, so it just made sense to me.” A host of state rebates and incentives can cut production costs by up to 30 percent, compared to California, said Rowe, who has worked on big-budget
films across the U.S. The Southern Oregon community has also been supportive of film projects, Blum said. The Talent Police Department parked a patrol car outside the Wimer Street house Thursday to assist in a law enforcement scene. Local restaurants have also offered free food to crew members and businesses have donated clothes for costumes, Blum said. The connections film students developed years ago in Ashland have lead to a surprising number of jobs in recent months, said Danielle Eddington, the second assistant camerawoman for Blum’s film. Eddington attended Ashland
High School and graduated from SOU in 2008 with a film degree. She initially moved from Ashland to Portland to pursue filmmaking, but now splits her time between the two cities, she said. “In the last six months, the work has definitely picked up,” Eddington, 27, said. “It’s great to come back.” Southern Oregon’s film industry is considerably less cutthroat that of Los Angeles or some other big cities, Blum said. “Whereas in some of the bigger cities, people are more competitive for jobs, here people are bending over backwards to help each other,” he said. “They’re nurturing the talent here.” Rowe is helping to supervise
nine SOU interns working on “Walk-In,” teaching them how to shoot a feature film. Meanwhile, Gary Lundgren, the award-winning director and screenwriter of “Calvin Marshall,” a 2009 comedy shot largely in Ashland and Medford, is preparing to teach a screenwriting class in Ashland this month, to help hone new talent. Lundgren, who operates Joma Films LLC, hopes his class, which begins Tuesday, will encourage more locals to pursue filmmaking. “I think we all want to see better films made and if I can be a part of that, to help projects get off the ground and help screenplays get better, then I want to be,” he said. “I know this is a good place to shoot films, so I’m hoping, through this process, more projects come this way.” Blum began shooting his film two weeks ago and plans to finish in mid-February. Lundgren will edit it this spring, when he will also begin shooting his next feature film. Typically films shot in Ashland travel on the film festival circuit in the hopes of being acquired by a major studio, Blum said. He hopes to begin showing “Walk-In” at film festivals in July or August, and to screen it at the Ashland Independent Film Festival next year. Blum has already written a screenplay for his second film, based on his book “Waiting For Autumn,” which he also hopes to shoot in Ashland. “I think the industry’s definitely burgeoning right now,” he said. “It’s an exciting time to be making movies in Ashland.”

Search resumes for Kyron Horman The Associated Press PORTLAND — Investigators are combing two rural locations Sunday in search of the Oregon boy who disappeared from his Portland school seven months ago. Search and rescue workers were looking for 8-year-old Kyron Horman in areas north and west of Portland. Multnomah County sheriff’s Sgt. Keith Krafve told the Oregonian newspaper that snow and weather conditions prevented the search of the two locations a month or six weeks ago. “Partly, weather is allowing it,” sheriff’s spokeswoman Lt. Mary Lindstrand said when asked why the search was resuming Sunday.
She added that officials are searching based on specific information received by investigators, but she declined to elaborate. Kyron’s biological mother, Desiree Young, told KATU-TV that she has been waiting some time for this search to happen She said the Kyron Horman Task Force has shared the intelligence information with her, but she declined to share it with the media. “I’m excited that today’s search will hopefully bring some closure to this case,” she told the TV station. Lindstrand said about 50 workers and several cadaverdetecting dogs are combing forested areas around turnouts,

O B Small plane crashes, wreckage found PORTLAND — Wreckage from a small plane that took off in Idaho and was headed to Portland has been found near Ontario. The single-engine Cessna 182 took off from Nampa, Idaho, and stopped in Ontario before taking off again around 8 p.m. The Malheur County Sheriff’s Department began searching for the plane and found the wreckage Sunday morning near Ontario. Officials say there were two people on board and both were killed. The names of those on board have not been released.
Man killed in Mill Creek crash TURNER — An Aumsville man died when his truck went into Mill Creek just outside the city limits of Turner. The Marion County Sheriff’s Office said Portland Electric crews discovered a partially submerged pickup in the creek when responding to a report Sunday morning of a power outage. The body of 24-year-old James Pasley was found downstream of the truck. — From wire reports

trailheads and gated logging roads. Multnomah County sheriff’s deputy Eric Gustafson told the Oregonian that authorities plan to send the canine teams in first so searchers do not contaminate the search areas. “None of the searching we do is random,” Gustafson told the newspaper, though he declined to comment on specifics. “We don’t throw darts at a board and say, ‘Let’s search here.’ We don’t say, ‘We haven’t searched in a while, let’s go search.’” Gustafson said searchers may return next weekend if they are unable to get everything done before dark Sunday. Kyron disappeared June 4 from his school in northwest Portland.

City reaching with carbon argument
I
s it just us, or has the city of Bend’s defense of its megamilliondollar surface water project begun to sound a little desperate? Last Monday, city representatives sang the project’s praises
at a forum held on the Oregon State University-Cascades campus. Among the benefits cited by City Engineer Tom Hickmann is the project’s likely effect on Bend’s ... carbon footprint! Spend $58 million to $73 million piping water from Bridge Creek to thirsty Bendites, the argument goes, and the city could spare Mother Earth up to 12,000 metric tons of carbon dioxide every year. That’s because the alternative — leaving Bridge Creek alone and pumping more water from wells — would require a lot more energy. The cost of buying that energy has been the city’s best argument in favor of its surface-water project, but that argument is only as powerful as the quality of its estimates. And these haven’t held up particularly well to an onslaught by the city’s critics. The biggest problem, of course, is the city’s decision to hire a conflicted company to crunch the numbers. HDR Engineering Inc., which analyzed the long-term costs of the two options, stands to make millions of dollars on the surface-water project. Predictably, its numbers favor surface water. And then, of course, there’s the city’s odd decision to ignore the value of the water that would remain in Tumalo Creek if it stopped diverting surface water. The public has spent millions of dollars in recent years piping irrigation canals in order to reduce the volume of water diverted from the region’s creeks and rivers. Because the volume of water preserved and the amount of money required to preserve it are known, Bruce Aylward, a natural resource economist from OSU-Cascade, managed to assign a value to the water that Bend would leave in Tumalo Creek by relying solely upon wells. That value is $15 million.
The carbon-footprint argument suggests that critics have largely undermined the city’s confidence in its cost-saving estimates. Hickmann’s desperate reach for the carbon-footprint argument suggests that critics have largely undermined the city’s confidence in its cost-saving estimates. And what a terrible argument it is. We have nothing against reasonable measures to reduce carbon dioxide emissions, but the global warming contribution of Bend’s well pumps is invisibly small. The weather in Bend will be exactly the same 100 years from now whether Bend pumps every drop of municipal water from 500 feet below the surface or wrings it by hand from the leaves of organically grown hemp plants. But switching entirely to wells will increase flows in Tumalo Creek measurably. According Ryan Houston, executive director of the Upper Deschutes Watershed Council, the stretch of creek below Shevlin Park would triple in size during the summer. The environmental argument is entirely on the side of wells. The city’s case for its surface water project becomes shakier by the week. Its preference may, in fact, be the best option over the long term. Then again, it may not. Problem is, the city doesn’t seem to know with any confidence which happens to be true. So why not let voters decide?
Set clear rules for GPS
M
odern technology continues to provide new challenges to old laws. Thus judicial rulings on the use of global positioning systems (GPS) to track criminals are inconsistent across the country. That inconsistency would end if Sen. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., has his way. Wyden told the Libertarian Cato Institute the other day that he plans to introduce legislation that would require police to treat GPS tracking and cellular phone tracking in the same way. Before proceeding, they’d have to obtain a court order allowing them to do so. By failing to follow through, they’d violate the Fourth Amendment’s guarantee against unreasonable search and seizure. Wyden’s proposal seems like a good idea as long as it allows flexibility for search and rescue purposes. Having to obtain a warrant or other court order before GPS or cell
tracking is a hit or miss proposition for now. If you’re a law enforcement officer within the federal court circuit that includes the District of Columbia, a warrant is required. If you live on the West Coast, however, federal officials do not need warrants. Within the state of Oregon, meanwhile, warrantless tracking by state and local law enforcement agencies is illegal, thanks to a 1993 state Supreme Court ruling. Wyden and the rest of us could simply wait for the U.S. Supreme Court to settle the matter, but there is no way to predict how it will rule or when. It’s that uncertainty that gives Wyden’s proposal merit. Americans’ privacy is threatened in a variety of ways, some of which they or their lawmakers can control, if they choose to do so. Law enforcement’s use of GPS technology is one of those ways, and setting clear rules for using the technology makes sense.
My Nickel’s Worth PC in cross hairs About the headline in a recent Bulletin: “Soft drinks, cycling in Salem’s cross hairs.” I’m outraged at your choice of “cross hairs” to describe a “target” — er, sorry, I mean “area of focus.” According to the irresponsible liberal media and politicians, you must have on your staff a right-wing nut case or at least tea party loyalist who wrote the headline. Who knows what manner of soft drink could now be in danger from a public driven to insanity by your choice of words? No, I’m not making light of the terrible tragedy in Tucson, Ariz., carried out by an insane gunman reportedly uninfluenced by politics, left or right. Rather, I’m pointing out the absurdity of liberals blaming Sarah Palin and others for using “cross hairs” or “targets,” which in fact have been in use by politicians of all stripes for many years, as well as businesses which “target” a demographic or region and even public health officials who “target” a given population for intervention, among dozens of other uses too numerous to mention. It is time we put our insane preoccupation with political correctness in cross hairs. Richard Miller Sunriver
Semi-automatics Facts are usually considered a vital part of a discussion when one brings into question another’s beliefs. Such is the case with Kathleen Paterno’s Jan. 22 letter to the editor, “No automatics.” Being a Second Amendment supporter, it might surprise some to hear that I too agree with her that no
automatic rifles or pistols should be sold. Aside from the media that knows all too well that the sale of automatic weapons is illegal in the United States of America (but loves to exploit the idea anyway), many average folk are unaware of this fact. The guns involved in these horrific crimes are semi-automatic, not automatic. Yes, there is a difference; a big one. What is it? I suggest you ask someone in law enforcement for a proper explanation. It might not change your feelings but at least you’ll have the facts straight. Mike Fitzsimons Redmond
Designate it When I think of wilderness, one place that comes to mind is the WhychusDeschutes, an area near my home that is very special to me and many other residents of Central Oregon. I support wilderness designation not only for the protection that it would give this beautiful area, but also for the benefits it would bring our community. Wilderness designation has absolutely no sway over private land rights. A portion of the wilderness proposal was designated as a Wild and Scenic River in 1989, and this designation did impact development on private land. The management plan for the Wild and Scenic section of the Deschutes River was developed with extensive input from the private landowners whom it impacted. Wilderness designation would be in line with the current management of the Whychus-Deschutes area and would have no further impact on private lands; with this in mind, wilderness designation for Whychus-Des-
chutes just makes sense. In a recent editorial, The Bulletin, in questioning why protection of this area is needed if it is not currently threatened, failed to note all of the positive benefits of wilderness designation. After all, most Central Oregonians treasure the close proximity of wilderness areas and realize that local wildernesses are a huge boost to the regional economy. The Deschutes canyon is a big part of what makes our area so special; let’s make sure it stays that way! Craig Soule Crooked River Ranch
Government vs. religion The Constitution provides for freedom of religion. One of the roles of religion in a republic is to develop a virtuous citizenry. Laws simply provide guidelines and penalties. They don’t motivate the citizenry to be compassionate, hospitable and caring. As government fills and replaces the role of neighborliness through laws, regulations and entitlements, it slowly but surely removes personal responsibility for self and neighbor. Compassion, hospitality and caring are slowly replaced, and the freedom and influence of religion are not removed but slowly diminished. A republic cannot thrive without a citizenry motivated by a higher power. It need not be a religion but it does need to proceed from an awe of a higher power. To deny this inner force is to condemn our republic to the forces of power and control and that was the concern of our founding fathers. Charlie Young Bend

The new Obama is the same as the old Obama WASHINGTON — he November election sent a clear message to Washington: less government, less debt, less spending. President Obama certainly heard it, but judging from his State of the Union address, he doesn’t believe a word of it. The people say they want cuts? Sure they do — in the abstract. But any party that actually dares carry them out will be punished severely. On that, Obama stakes his re-election. No other conclusion can be drawn from a speech that didn’t even address the debt issue until 35 minutes in. And then what did he offer? A freeze on domestic discretionary spending that he himself admitted would affect a mere one-eighth of the budget. Obama seemed impressed, however, that it would produce $400 billion in savings over 10 years. That’s an average of $40 billion a year. The deficit for last year alone was more than 30 times as much. And total federal spending was more than 85 times that amount.
T
A $40 billion annual savings for a government that just racked up $3 trillion in new debt over the last two years is deeply unserious. It’s spillage, a rounding error. As for entitlements, which are where the real money is, Obama said practically nothing. He is happy to discuss, but if Republicans dare take anything from granny, he shall be Horatius at the bridge. This entire pantomime about debt reduction came after the first half of a speech devoted to, yes, new spending. One almost has to admire Obama’s defiance. His 2009 stimulus and budgetbusting health care reform are precisely what stirred the popular revolt that delivered his November shellacking. And yet he’s back for more. It’s as if Obama is daring the voters — and the Republicans — to prove they really want smaller government. He’s manning the barricades for Obamacare and he’s here with yet another spending — excuse me, investment — spree. To
CHARLES KR AUTHAMMER face down those overachieving Asians, Obama wants to sink yet more monies into yet more road and bridge repair, more federally subsidized teachers — with a bit of high-speed rail tossed in for style. That will show the Chinese. And of course, once again, there is the magic lure of a green economy created by the brilliance of Washington experts and politicians. This is to be our “Sputnik moment,” when the fear of the foreigner spurs us to innovation and greatness of the kind that yielded NASA and the moon landing. Apart from the irony of this appeal being made by the very president who has just killed NASA’s manned space program, there is the fact that for three
decades, since Jimmy Carter’s synfuel fantasy, Washington has poured billions of taxpayer dollars down a rat hole in vain pursuit of economically competitive renewable energy. This is nothing but a retread of what used to be called industrial policy, government picking winners and losers. Except that in a field that is not nearly technologically ready to match fossil fuels, we pick one loser after another — from ethanol, a $6 billion boondoggle that even Al Gore admits was a mistake, to the $41,000 Chevy Volt that only the rich can afford (with their extended Bush tax cuts, of course). Perhaps this is all to be expected from Democrats — the party of government — and from a president who from his very first address to Congress has boldly displayed his zeal to fundamentally transform the American social contract and place it on a “New Foundation” (an Obama slogan that never took). He’s been chastened enough by the election of 2010 to make gestures
toward the center. But the State of the Union address revealed a man ideologically unbowed and undeterred. He served up an insignificant spending cut, yet another (if more modest) stimulus, and a promise to fight any Republican attempt to significantly shrink the size of government. Indeed, he went beyond this. He tried to cast this more-of-the-same into a call to national greatness, citing two Michigan brothers who produce solar shingles as a stirring example of rising to the Sputnik moment. “We do big things,” Obama declared at the end of an address that was, on the contrary, the finest example of smallball Clintonian minimalism since the days of school uniforms and midnight basketball. From the moon landing to solar shingles. Is there a better example of American decline? Charles Krauthammer is a member of The Washington Post Writers Group.

O Ron Patterson, Renaissance (fair) man, 80 By Margalit Fox New York Times News Service
Ron Patterson, who nearly half a century ago helped found the country’s first Renaissance fair, which inspired a thriving nationwide industry of jousters and jesters, hawking street vendors and brave men in doublets and tights, died Jan. 15 in Sausalito, Calif. He was 80. Patterson, who lived in San Francisco, Homewood and on a houseboat in Sausalito, had been in declining health for some time and died of natural causes, his son Kevin said. Renaissance fairs date back to … well, the Renaissance. But Patterson and his wife at the time, Phyllis, are widely credited with having created the first modern one, begun in Southern California in 1963. Known, in deference to ye olde spellynge conventions, as the Renaissance Pleasure Faire, it sprang from a children’s artseducation program they had established a few years earlier in their Los Angeles backyard.
5 million visitors Though no longer owned by the Patterson family, the fair remains an annual event, held each spring in Irwindale, Calif., outside Los Angeles. Since its inception, it has drawn more than 5 million visitors, according to Renaissance Entertainment Productions, the current owner. It has also spawned hordes of imitators, some faithful to the Pattersons’ vision of authentic historical re-creation, others more dubious. Today, at least 200 medieval and Renaissance fairs are held throughout the country each year, including the Alabama Renaissance Faire, the Northwest Arkansas Fantasy Faire and the Sterling Renaissance Festival in upstate New York. The Pattersons’ creation was modeled on a 16th-century English country fair. Visitors (many attired in period weeds like ruffs and jerkins and snoods) could hear madrigal singing and period instruments, gnaw bulbous roast turkey legs and buy all manner of handicrafts.
Art director and entertainer An art director by training, Patterson was responsible for the look of the fair. He also cheerfully served as Master of the Revels — equal parts lord mayor, court jester and benevolent tout — heralding attractions in impeccable Elizabethan English. Ronald Jay Patterson was born in Los Angeles on Nov. 2, 1930. He earned a bachelor’s degree in commercial art from the University of California, Los Angeles; afterward, in the Air Force, he was put in charge of entertainment for
the officers’ club on his base in Memphis, Tenn. In his most spectacular coup, he arranged a visit from a young actress named Marilyn Monroe. “When she arrived, everybody in the room was too stunned to ask her to dance,” Kevin Patterson said by telephone. His father, he said, gamely obliged. In the late 1950s, Patterson married Phyllis Ann Stimbert. The couple settled in Los Angeles, where he was an advertising agency art director and she a 10th-grade English and history teacher. In 1961, they began holding arts classes for neighborhood children in their backyard. Out of these grew the Piccolo Players, a young people’s commedia dell’arte troupe. The troupe performed publicly in Los Angeles, and those performances were the seeds of the first Renaissance Pleasure Faire, held in May 1963 at a North Hollywood campground. Three thousand people attended. With its pastoral setting, strolling players and bonhomie made bonnier by tankards of ale, the fair was an idea whose time had come. Amid the Vietnam War, inhabiting a lost era of courtly love and gentler combat had tremendous appeal, and the fair became a kind of early, wimpled Woodstock. The Pattersons later established a similar fair in Northern California, and both fairs became known for historical fealty.
Focus on authenticity “All 2,500 of the fair participants, whether they were actors or whether they were turkey leg basters, had to go through workshops,” Kevin Patterson said. “There were over 30 classes in Elizabethan style and life and folklore, so you could really think like an Elizabethan instead of just playing one.” Ron and Phyllis Patterson divorced in 1980; in 1994, the fairs were sold to Renaissance Entertainment, which owned other Renaissance fairs around the country and today is the largest producer of such fairs in the United States. Besides his son Kevin, Patterson is survived by another son, Brian; two brothers, Duane and Gary; and two grandchildren. The family continues to operate the Great Dickens Christmas Fair, a Victorian-themed extravaganza founded by Ron and Phyllis Patterson in 1970, held each holiday season in San Francisco. There, in a secret parlor on the fairgrounds known poetically as the Opium Den, Patterson held forth eruditely on divers and sundrie subjects as Champagne flowed, Master of the Revels to the last.

Competitors watch Joey Vandermeer, 18, of Portland, launch into the air on the right-hand wall of the halfpipe during the Gatorade Free Flow Tour event at Mt. Bachelor on Sunday.
Tour Continued from B1 J.D. has been snowboarding since he was 8. His mom, Robin Dennis, said he’s been competing in similar events all over the country — even in places like Maine and Virginia — but never had the chance to ride in one that was in their “backyard.” She said she was really proud of her son, and noted that the Free Flow Tour is a great opportunity for local kids, especially the young ones, to get some additional exposure and get involved in contests that can take them to the next level. “He started out just like them,” she said. “He used to be the little guy up here.” The Winter Gatorade Free Flow tour is in its second year, and the 2010-11 circuit consists of 10 regional events across the U.S. This weekend was the first
Software Continued from B1 Andrews said the current computer system is fast and efficient at processing data, but it isn’t very intuitive, especially for new employees or people who use it sparingly, like a department head. This can make training take longer than it needs to, she said.
Difficult to mine data It’s also difficult to take data, such as budget information, and turn it into something that’s easily understandable, like a graph. To do this, Andrews said the information has to be mined from the current software system, uploaded into something like a Microsoft Excel spreadsheet and then manipulated into a report. Otherwise, the information would likely just look like a series of numbers on a page. Despite these limitations, Andrews said residents don’t have to worry about the city “messing up their utility bills” with the current software.
Tony Geiss, writer for ‘Sesame Street’ By Joseph Berger New York Times News Service
Tony Geiss, who entertained generations of children by putting words in the mouths of Big Bird, Kermit the Frog, Elmo and other characters on “Sesame Street,” helping the show win 22 daytime Emmys for scriptwriting and songwriting, died on Jan. 21, in Valhalla, N.Y. He was 86 and lived in Manhattan. He had been hospitalized at Westchester Medical Center for a neck injury, Laird Townsend, his cousin, said in confirming the death. Geiss, a well-read man who never lost a child’s playfulness, wrote for “Sesame Street” for three decades and went on to write popular animated films for young audiences. He invented several Muppet characters: the Honkers, fuzzy puppets with bulbous noses
whose origins lay in Geiss’ childhood trick of honking his nose, and Abby Cadabby, a 3-yearold fairy who made her debut on Sesame Street’s 37th season with a broken wand that Big Bird advised she repair at the show’s Fix-It Shop. Geiss would repeatedly discover ways of amusing children while giving a wink to parents who were watching with them. He once wrote a sketch called “Omelet: Prince of Dinner” about a man who couldn’t make up his mind whether to have peas or broccoli for dinner. “The peas or not the peas — that is the question,” the prince says. Geiss helped create the “Sesame Street” segment “Elmo’s World,” aimed at toddlers, about Elmo, a furry monster with an orange nose whose companions are Dorothy, a goldfish and the
Noodle family. He also composed that segment’s theme song. He wrote the television productions “Cinderelmo” and “Don’t Eat the Pictures: Sesame Street at the Metropolitan Museum of Art,” then, with Judy Freudberg, wrote the film “Sesame Street Presents: Follow That Bird.” The Emmys he helped garner were among scores won by the show since its inception in 1969. Branching out from “Sesame Street,” he and Freudberg wrote the stories or screenplays for two films directed by the great Disney animator Don Bluth and produced by Steven Spielberg, “The Land Before Time” and “An American Tail.” “The Land Before Time,” about orphaned dinosaurs and their battle for survival, went on to have a separate life in numerous videos and in a TV series, which Geiss also helped write.
“It’s awesome to bring this level of talent to the hill. They’re all young kids just looking for that next break.” — Corey Eisele, Mt. Bachelor employee time one has been held at Mt. Bachelor. According to the tour’s website, the goal of the competition is to find the top talent across the country and give them a chance to compete against professionals on the Winter Dew Tour.
Finals winners move up But before the youngsters get a chance to ride with the professionals, they must demonstrate that they’re the best in their class by winning at the Gatorade Free Flow Tour Finals in Utah. “The Free Flow Tour is basically a stepping stone for ama-
“It’s definitely very dynamic, and people have to understand this is no desktop application here, it’s a big system where we manage all the city’s accounts,” she said. “The goal is to be more efficient and to provide more value to the citizens because we’ll be able to get better data out of our system and better functionality.” Bend IT Director Steve Meyers said one of the main thrusts behind performing a technology assessment is the company that provides the current software, SunGard HTE, Inc., is moving to a new system, and building a whole new set of software that won’t be compatible with what is now being used. Meyers said SunGard is also shifting toward a “hosting service” model, where it would maintain and run the city’s servers at an off-site location. This is different than what the city does today, he said, and is something that is becoming more of a trend in the industry. “We have to make the decision of, do we want to migrate to that or should we look at whatever else is available out there?” Mey-
Weather Continued from B1 Aside from this morning, the weather service predicts little to no chance of rain or snow. The chance for precipitation today is 20 percent. Brooks said the long-term forecast also doesn’t bode well
Renovation Continued from B1 The renovations are expected to allow the park district to operate the La Pine Event Center as a year-round facility for the first time in several years. Because of a lack of insulation and an aging and inefficient heating system, the building has historically been closed during the winter to
teur skiers and snowboarders,” said Brett LaCour, the organizer for the tour’s West Coast events. “It’s kind of a little bit of a faster track to break people into the higher ranks of whatever their discipline is.” He said there were about 100 or so participants at Mt. Bachelor over the weekend, though there was some overlap among people who competed in multiple events. It wasn’t just locals who competed, either, as some participants came from as far away as Michigan and British Columbia. LaCour, 27, of Burlington, Vt., said he was particularly im-
ers said. “We want to look at and analyze our options and find out if that’s going to allow us to operate at a lower cost and provide a better service.”
Public records Something else the city-commissioned study will look at is upgrading its content management system to make finding information, such as public records, easier. There will also be a component of the analysis that will looking at the IT department’s staff levels and organization. According to the city’s 2009-11 biennial budget, the IT department has 13 positions. Meyers said there have been 13 bids to do the assessment, many of which came in under the $100,000 that was approved by the City Council to be spent on the study. He estimated that the study would be completed by May, which would be before the council adopts its biennial budget. Given that timing, there’s a possibility the city could pursue some upgrades as soon as next fiscal year.
for anyone wishing for more snow on the mountains for skiing or snowboarding. “It doesn’t look like there’s much of a winter left,” he said. “There’s no real on-the-horizon look for any huge snowstorms or anything.” Nick Grube can be reached at 541-633-2160 or at ngrube@bendbulletin.com.

pressed by the talent he saw from some of the local participants on both days of the competition. “The level of riding was very good,” he said. “The Northwest riders have a lot of style.” Corey Eisele, 24, who works for Mt. Bachelor, said the event made him wish he was young enough to compete. He also thought the format made for a good, low-stress environment for the young competitors, and didn’t have a “savage” feel that some competitions can have. And like LaCour, he said he was surprised by how good some of the participants were and thought it was a good way to showcase what the local riders can do. “It’s awesome to bring this level of talent to the hill,” Eisele said. “They’re all young kids just looking for that next break.” Nick Grube can be reached at 541-633-2160 or at ngrube@bendbulletin.com.
What those upgrades might cost, however, could vary widely. Based on what he’s seen other municipalities do, Meyers said the price could range from $500,000 for major improvements down to $30,000 for minor adjustments. And with Bend facing an estimated five-year, $17 million to $27 million shortfall in its general fund, he said there might have to be some concessions on which upgrades are pursued. “We have to work within the means that we have to work with,” Meyers said. “We want to make sure that we’re getting the most for the public’s money and getting the best deal that we can.” Nick Grube can be reached at 541-633-2160 or at ngrube@bendbulletin.com.

Deschutes County e-waste first travels to Vancouver, Wash., recycler
F
ootball fans who buy a new big-screen television to watch the Super Bowl on Sunday should take note — the old set can’t simply be tossed in the trash. Instead, Oregon requires it to be recycled, along with computers and monitors, as a part of the Oregon E-Cycles program. The program is now 2 years old, and a statewide ban on throwing certain electronics in the trash is a year old. If that old TV is recycled in Bend, it will be sent to a Vancouver, Wash., company to be dismantled, and its component parts are likely to be sent to additional recyclers across the country. Eventually, those parts will end up in new products. So far, people have been receptive to the ECycles program, said Kathy Kiwala, program manager with the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality. “We’ve increased over (2009) with the number of pounds,” she said. “And we’ve had about the same number of collection sites.” The increase could be due to several factors, she said — 2009 was the first year that throw-
ing TVs, computers or monitors into the landfill was illegal and recycling them was mandatory, she said. Also, 2010 seemed to be a big year for people getting rid of old televisions after buying new, digital options. “I know that there still is a big turnover on electronics,” she said. Locally, in 2009 — the first year of the electronic waste recycling program — Deschutes Recycling at Knott Landfill in Bend sent out about 28 semitrailer loads, or about 700,000 pounds, of computers, TVs, monitors and more to be recycled, said Brian Stone operations manager with Deschutes Recycling. “It was a pretty good kickoff,” he said. In 2010, once it was mandatory for people to recycle specific electronics, the number increased. “That kicked it up,” Stone said. “We did about 36 semi loads — that was almost 1 million pounds.” The amount of electronics recycled picks up around Christmastime when people replace computers or televisions, Stone said, and this time of year, when people buy new TVs to watch the Super Bowl.

Lack of sex among grapes tangles family vine By Nicholas Wade New York Times News Service
SCIENCE
For the last 8,000 years, the wine grape has had very little sex. This unnatural abstinence threatens to sap the grape’s genetic health and the future pleasure of millions of oenophiles. The lack of sex has been discovered by Sean Myles, a geneticist at Cornell University. He developed a gene chip that tests for the genetic variation commonly found in grapes. He then scanned the genomes of the thousand or so grape varieties in the Department of Agriculture’s extensive collection. Much to his surprise, he found that 75 percent of the varieties were as closely related as parent and child or brother and sister. “Previously people thought there were several different families of grape,” Myles said. “Now we’ve found that all
those families are interconnected and in essence there’s just one large family.” Thus merlot is intimately related to cabernet franc, which is a parent of cabernet sauvignon, whose other parent is sauvignon blanc, the daughter of traminer, which is also a progenitor of pinot noir, a parent of chardonnay. This web of interrelatedness is evidence that the grape has undergone very little breeding since it was first domesticated, Myles and his co-authors report in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The reason is obvious in retrospect. Vines can be propagated by breaking off a shoot and sticking it in the ground, or onto existing rootstock. The method gives uniform crops, and most growers have evidently used it for thousands of years. See Grapes / C6
Regional transportation officials envision a network of traffic signals, weather stations and cameras in Bend and Redmond that will help control traffic flow, ease congestion and improve communication with motorists. It began taking shape in 2005 with the Deschutes County Intelligent Transportation System Plan, which provides the road map for building the network. Efforts have continued since, and on We d n e s d ay, Bend Metropolitan Planning Organization staff members are scheduled to update members of the Technical and Citizen Advisory committees. Essentially, an Intelligent Transportation System applies technology to traffic management and communications, allowing more vehicles on roadways without having to expand streets, said Tyler Deke, manager of the Bend Metropolitan Planning Organization. Over the last five years, officials have spent about $5 million in state and federal funds on Intelligent Transportation System projects in Central Oregon, mostly to improve traffic signals, Deke said. Redmond has a system that allows two-way communication to nearly all traffic signals in the city, according to a summary prepared for Wednesday’s meeting. But Bend’s older and larger system is more fragmented. “Bend’s a lot more difficult because we have a lot of very old signals,” Deke said. In the coming year or two, schedules call for signal improvements on U.S. Highway 20 and along Third and 27th streets in Bend. Another schedule proposes about a dozen more projects between 2014-23, mostly installing network capacity and linking traffic lights, cameras and other devices to the Oregon Department of Transportation’s Regional Transportation Operations Center in Bend or a communications hub in Redmond. A network of Ethernet, fiber optic, wireless and even existing copper wire will connect it all, according to the plan. It calls for using what’s available or expected to be, Deke said, and deploying it where it’s needed. For example, wireless connections will likely be used to communicate with signals in remote or isolated areas. When complete, according to the plan, the system would provide some of the following benefits: • Increased safety, by coordinating response to accidents or other incidents, or evacuations in a wildfire or other emergency. • Improved system efficiency, by managing traffic flow to improve commuting and freight delivery times. • Better-informed travelers, by speeding the delivery of weather and road conditions to motorists, for improved travel planning, and to road crews, for coordinated snow and ice removal.

Man’s dog outranks Furor keeps raging over MTV’s ‘Skins’ wife in household By Tirdad Derakhshani The Philadelphia Inquirer
Dear Abby: I met my husband, “Monty,” shortly after he lost his wife of 14 years. Monty has two dogs, but the one I have issues with is “Ginger.” I have never seen a dog act like her. Ginger acts more like a wife than a dog. She clings to Monty to the point he doesn’t have any time alone. She’ll sit outside the shower until he is done. If he takes a bath, Ginger sits on the edge of the tub. She runs to him when he gets home from work to greet him before I do. As she’s running ahead of me, she looks back as if she’s worried I’ll beat her to him. It’s as if she thinks she’s his wife! She sits next to Monty on the couch when we’re watching television. I hesitate telling her to move so I can sit next to my husband because he treats his dogs like gold. His excuse? “They were here for me when my wife died.” I’m sympathetic to that, but where do I fit in? Ginger bullies the other dog by growling at her and bumping into her when the other one tries to get Monty’s attention. I’m feeling jealous because sometimes my husband neglects my physical needs and is more affectionate with the dogs. What do I do? — Jealous of the Four-legged Mistress Dear Jealous: When Monty’s first wife died, Ginger became the alpha female in the house. Your husband was depressed and lonely, and he allowed or encouraged it. It is now up to him to retrain Ginger so she learns to defer to you because your place is beside your husband — and not just on the couch. If you haven’t told Monty that you need a higher rank in the pack, do it now. And if he isn’t willing to make some changes, including taking care of more of your physical needs, insist the two of you talk to a licensed marriage counselor. (And maybe to the Dog Whisperer.) Dear Abby: I’m a college student
DEAR ABBY who has been looking up friends from my past, ranging from elementary to high school. One of my close friends from elementary school was a boy named “Martin.” We were close because we were sort of the outcasts of our class. I recently contacted a friend who knew Martin. He told me that Martin had become addicted to hard drugs and is now in jail. I have not been able to stop crying over this. Martin was the one who made me happy about school — a kindred spirit. I blame myself because I moved over the summer break and never got a chance to say goodbye to Martin. When I visited the school again, Martin came up to me, gave me a hug and demanded to know why I left him! I know I can’t change the past, but I feel if I had been there I could have stopped him from getting into the trouble he did. I can’t think about our good times without being sad about his grim future. How can I get over this? — Crying for a Friend in Louisville, Ky. Dear Crying: Please stop blaming yourself for the path that your childhood friend chose. People do not become drug addicts because a friend from elementary school moved away. Whatever led to his substance abuse, it wasn’t you. Because this has hit you so hard emotionally, make an appointment to visit your student health center and talk to a counselor about your feelings of guilt. This has nothing to do with you, and you should not make it your problem. Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips.

“Skins,” an inferior and crass teen dramedy from MTV, has little nudity and no explicit sex scenes. But it has struck a nerve with its portrayal of a world where teens attach as much emotional value to sex as to skateboarding. “Skins,” a remake of a British hit, follows a group of high school students who seem to spend most of their free time hooking up, going to parties and doing drugs. If that weren’t bad enough, their parents and teachers are incompetent fools. It’s “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” meets “Red Shoe Diaries.” In the roughly two weeks since its premiere, conservatives and liberals alike have blasted “Skins” as irresponsible, heaping upon it scorn and moral outrage. Why is the show so objectionable? Some social scientists and family-values folks say it distorts real life, twists human sexuality and will have a pernicious effect on kids. But maybe it doesn’t twist things? Maybe it’s shocking precisely because it’s accurate? A “rude awakening” to oblivious parents, as one 14-year-old “Skins” fan from Texas puts it? Or maybe adults are enraged because the series reminds us that we’ve all been complicit in creating a hypersexual consumer culture in which all things, including our bodies — and now, our children — are reduced to commodities. Conservative watchdog organization the Parents Television Council says “Skins” doesn’t just show a pornographic culture, it is itself a form of child pornography. “The fact that they have minors in these highly sexu-

Rachel Thevenard, left, James Newman and Sofa Black D’Elia star in MTV’s new series “Skins.” The show is under fire from critics, some of whom call it child pornography, though there are no explicit sex scenes. alized, highly eroticized … situations is particularly disturbing,” says PTC communications director Melissa Henson. Henson says she was shocked by a scene in the pilot that had one of the boys, Tony, asking his girlfriend Michelle, to have sex with his friend Stanley because Stanley was still a virgin. “The message that it sends is that girls have no value beyond sex,” says Henson. “Skins” is the creation of British writer-producer Bryan Elsley, 49, and his son, Jamie Brittain, 25, who drew on his own experience as a teen. Elsley anticipated the controversy in a phone interview on the eve of the show’s MTV premiere. “People keep saying there’s a lot of nudity. Well, our cast is never naked,” he said. “It’s actually a very traditional, old-fashioned narrative.” Elsley said he tries to keep the show real by consulting teen writers, who suggest plotlines from their own lives. MTV seems undaunted that eight sponsors have pulled out of the show, including GM, Taco
Bell and H&R Block. A spokesman said Wednesday that the network fully supports Elsley. Is “Skins” really a window into the teenage world? Teens who watch the drama agree it’s exaggerated, but some, such as two 14-year-old fans from Texas contacted through one of the show’s Facebook pages, insist that it does reflect teenage lives. “Kids in all the other TV shows seem so innocent,” says one, a ninth-grader at a private school in Arlington, Texas. “And that’s how parents see us. (“Skins” is) a lot more … truthful.” Her classmate says she and her mother have been watching “Skins” together. “Usually we end up having a serious conversation after,” she says. An older viewer said she was struck by how the attitude of teens toward sex has changed.
Self Referrals Welcome
Janna Manjelievskaia, 22, a senior at Temple University who has only been out of high school for four years, says teens today become sexualized far earlier. “They are not scared of authority anymore. They are not scared of parents or teachers anymore,” she says. She worries that teens learn about sex more from hard-core porn — so readily available online — than from their parents or peers. “For so many boys, it’s their first exposure to sex,” she says, “and it defines the sort of thing they expect from girls.” Sabitha Pillai-Friedman, director of the Institute for Sex Therapy in Wynnewood, Pa., says the attitude of the kids in “Skins” isn’t an expression of sexual freedom but of a “schizophrenic attitude” toward sex. There is no “comprehensive sex education” in schools, she says. “The attitude is to teach abstinence only.” Parents reinforce that denial, says Pillai-Friedman, “so sexuality is often seen as something bad, something you sneak around to do. “On the one hand, we don’t teach our children anything about sexuality,” she says. “Then we bombard them with these images of nudity and sexuality” in advertising and the media. Deprived of a positive view of sex “as a normal part of life,” teens never learn “the emotional aspect of sex,” Pillai-Friedman says. They see sex as a mechanical activity — like riding a skateboard.

no longer have to appear in court every three months for progress report hearings. Brown is serving five years of probation after pleading guilty last year to assaulting pop star Rihanna in a rented sports car after a pre-Grammy Awards party. City News Service reports the judge said she would consider lifting the protective order against Brown at a later date. The order requires Brown to stay at least 100 yards away from Rihanna.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Jan. 31, 2011: This year, you often feel like someone puts the kibosh on your ideas or plans. Travel could be difficult, as could dealings with foreigners. Be open to different types of thinking and what different cultures have to offer. Spend more time with yourself reflecting on issues, and you will find this year to be easier. Many of you could opt to do volunteer work. If you are single, you could meet someone who might not be what he or she seems. Take a full year before deciding what is going on between you. If you are attached, as a couple you will gain from weekends away from your responsibilities. You could start acting like young lovers again! LIBRA seems to be more difficult than in the past. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH Take a strong hand in an immediate situation. Perhaps a little less responsibility would make you happier, freeing up time for key priorities. Others could react strangely, as they are tired. Tonight: Head home ASAP. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH New information could toss your life into chaos. You also might discover that you are burdened by everything that you have to do at this point. Prioritize and delegate. Be happy about an opportunity. Tonight: Read between the lines with a friend. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Work closely with a partner
in order to get results. Your ability to negotiate comes out. Consider whether this partner’s interests are the same as yours. Postpone plans with a friend or loved one in order to accomplish what you must. Tonight: Discussions seem to go on forever. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH Your ability to read key people in your life needs to come forward. You could be tired and feel as if someone is dragging you down. Sorting through what is happening with a key set of friends or associates could be important. Tonight: Let someone else decide! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH Maintain a steady pace. You could be a bit out of sorts. You’ll get a lot done, quite quickly, if you focus on work, not people -- just for this moment in time! Prioritize your work and take breaks in order to recharge your energy. Tonight: Stop at the gym. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Remain sensitive to your limits. Are they self-imposed? Are they realistic? If you know the answers to these questions, when a risk moseys along today, you will know which way to go. Understanding evolves between you and a child, friend or loved one. Tonight: Just be yourself. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Your fatigue or weariness with recent events breaks through, perhaps coloring your day. You might not know what is workable right now, as you simply are not firing on all cylinders. Do only what you must, and schedule some personal time. Tonight: Happy at home.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH You seem to be at the right place at the right time. Many reasons could force a smile, but recognize that your perspective could be colored by the moment. Don’t worry so much; just be yourself, knowing what it is you want. Tonight: Clear out some hurt feelings. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You might be overwhelmed. Just when you thought someone was coming through, you hit a snafu. Understanding evolves in a new direction. Realize what is happening with a risk. Tonight: Take care of yourself first. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Pushing someone really doesn’t get the desired results. Someone you need to answer to is very stern and/or direct, creating an unanticipated problem. You can only do so much. Prioritize and communicate. Tonight: Do your own thing. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Don’t push beyond your normal level. How you see someone and the choices you make reflect your inner self. At this point, you are changing. Center yourself for a while before making any major decisions. Tonight: Vanish. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH Consider dealing with someone differently than in the past. A partner does not see eye to eye with you and lets you know it in no uncertain terms. Money discussions are best left for another day. A meeting proves to be supportive and informative. Tonight: Visit with a friend. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Grapes Continued from C1 The result is that cultivated grapes remain closely related to wild grapes, apart from a few improvements in berry size and sugar content, and a bunch of new colors favored by plant breeders. Cultivated grapes have almost as much genetic diversity as wild grapes. But because there has been very little sexual reproduction over the last eight millennia, this diversity has not been shuffled nearly enough. The purpose of sex, though this is perhaps not widely appreciated, is recombination, the creation of novel genomes by taking some components from the father’s and some from the mother’s DNA. The new combinations of genes provide variation for evolution to work on, and in particular they let slow-growing things like plants and animals keep one step ahead of the microbes that prey on them. The grapevine fell extinct through much of Europe in the phylloxera epidemic of the 19th century. The French wine industry recovered from this disaster only by grafting French scions, as the grape’s shoots are called, onto sturdy American rootstock resistant to the phylloxera aphid.
Flavor of genetics Despite that close call, grape growers did not rush to breed disease resistance into their vines. One obstacle is that wine drinkers are attached to particular varieties, and if you cross a chardonnay grape with some other variety, it cannot be called chardonnay. In many wine-growing regions there are regulations that let only a specific variety be grown, lest the
E-waste Continued from C1
Where does it all go? Once the electronics are baled up and loaded into a container at the facility by Knott Landfill, they are trucked to a recycler in Vancouver, Wash., Stone said. Through the E-Cycles program, which collects a fee from TV, computer and monitor manufacturers, Deschutes Recycling is reimbursed for transport costs for those items. Recycling televisions, computers and monitors is free for households, as part of the state program. For other items, like fax machines, printers, keyboards and cell phones, Deschutes Recycling charges 25 cents per pound, with a minimum charge of $1, to cover the transport to Vancouver. The electronics from Deschutes Recycling all end up at IMS Electronics Recycling in Vancouver. IMS takes in about 1 million pounds of electronics per month from throughout the Northwest. Workers receive the electronics and separate them by type, said Jim Powers, a business development representative with the company — computers in one place, monitors in another, plasma TVs separated from LCD or old cathode-ray units. “It’s all separated by category,

A study of genetic variation in grapes found that many varieties are more closely related than previously thought, forming a single large family. At right, lines show family relationships among several dozen common grape cultivars. Some of the more widely known types are highlighted in bold.

quality of the region’s wine be degraded. More than 90 percent of French vineyards are now planted with clones — genetically identical plants — certified to possess the standard qualities of the variety. The consequence of this genetic conservatism is that a host of pests have caught up with the grape, obliging growers to protect their vines with a deluge of insecticides, fungicides and other powerful chemicals. This situation cannot be sustained indefinitely, in Myles’s view. “Someday, regulatory agencies are going to say ‘No more,’” he said. “Europeans are
gearing up for the day, which will come earlier there than in the U.S., for laws that reduce the amount of spray you can put on grapes.” At that point, growers will have three options. One is to add genes for pest resistance, risking consumer resistance to genetically modified crops. A second is to go organic, which may be difficult for a plant as vulnerable as the grape. A third is to breed sturdier varieties.
and from there we go through and it’s dismantled,” he said. Crews take apart the electronics and sort the components into bins or boxes — copper wires, other metal, glass, plastic, circuit boards and more. All of a typical television or computer is recycled, Powers said. “For all those different components that used to make up a TV, those get processed as a finished good,” said David Palenshus, operations manager with IMS. The metal in the electronics, for example, is shredded and separated based on whether it contains iron, and then sold to a Pacific Northwest metal buyer, he said. That buyer then combines it with other metals, from crunched-up cars to appliances and other products and sells it to another manufacturer who melts it down to make something new, from doors to grates, Palenshus said. Others buy plastic, whether it’s dark or light, and melt it down, grind it up, take away or add color, and make plastic pellets that can be melted, reshaped and used again in different products. IMS also follows International Organization for Standardization processes to handle hazardous materials, Palenshus said. It conducts downstream audits of the companies it sells materials to, he said, to ensure the company is doing what it said it was going to do, and not sending materials to a Third-World
country. IMS only sells material to other American companies, he said, with the exception of circuit boards, which are sent to a company in Sweden. “It’s a big expense for us, between the audits and these processes, but it’s the only way we can guarantee what we’re doing is right,” he said. IMS is one of about a halfdozen recycling companies the E-Cycles program works with to break down the electronics, Kiwala said. Most of the recyclers are in Oregon, although IMS is in Washington and another facility is in California. Those recyclers are held to certain standards, she said, and auditors examine the recyclers once a year to ensure they are following not only Oregon regulations, but the laws of the state or country to which they ship material. “They’re following the different regulations that apply to waste, air or water, worker safety or health,” she said. Recycling companies also are required to track how much material comes into their facilities, and where they ship brokendown products as well. Stone said Deschutes Recycling researched different options for electronics recyclers, and interviewed a couple of different companies before choosing IMS based on finances and the service provided. The electronic waste recycling program, Stone noted, prevents 36 semitrailers of

to plant a thousand seedlings, wait three years for them to mature, and then select the few progeny that have the desired traits. But a new kind of plant breeding now offers hopes of an efficient shortcut. The new method depends on gene chips, like the one developed by Myles, that test young plants for the desired combination of traits. The breeder can thus discard 90 percent of seedlings from a cross, without waiting three years while they grow to maturity. The new method, called marker-assisted breeding, or genomic selection, is already being used
in breeding corn. “We can predict flowering within a couple of days by looking at the DNA,” said Edward Buckler, a leading corn geneticist at the Agriculture Department’s research lab at Cornell. Buckler said he felt the government’s large collections of crop plants could be used much more efficiently by analyzing the genomes of each species. He recruited Myles to work on the grape genome. In major crops like corn, rice and wheat, “everyone is shifting to these new technologies,” Buckler said. He expects grape growers to follow the trend.
electronic waste from entering Knott Landfill each year, and most of that material can be reused. “They’re trying to salvage liter-
ally everything they can,” he said.

Wine drinkers’ insistence on their favorite varieties need not necessarily be a problem, because with enough genetic markers the breeder could identify and maintain the genes responsible for the taste of varieties like chardonnay or merlot. Genomically selected grape varieties may be ready for market in about a decade, said Buckler, who is a co-author on Myles’s report. M. Andrew Walker, an expert grape breeder at the University of California, Davis, said that there are “ample pest- and disease-resistance genes” in the grapevine genus, which has about 60 species, but few in Vitis vinifera, the particular species to which wine and table grapes belong. He agreed that it will be necessary to introduce many of these genes from other Vitis species into vinifera. “Consumers and wine promoters will have to move beyond dependence on traditional vinifera varieties,” Walker said. So far Myles has only 6,000 useful genetic markers on his grape gene chip, and needs a larger chip to identify all the traits of interest to breeders. He started his scientific career working on human genetics at the Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology in Leipzig, Germany. On a bicycle tour of German vineyards, he decided the grape’s genome might hold as many surprises as the human one. The pursuit fit in well with another aspect of his life — his wife is a winemaker in Nova Scotia. Canada might seem too far north for vineyards to thrive, but the growing season is like that of Champagne in France, Myles said. “For high-acid grapes that don’t fully ripen, which is the Champagne strategy, you can make fantastic sparkling wines in Nova Scotia and lots of good whites.”

AUTO RACING Bend driver places 15th in Rolex 24 DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — GAINSCO/Bob Stallings Racing team, which includes Bend’s Jon Fogarty, finished 15th Sunday in the Rolex 24 At Daytona, America’s most prestigious road race. Chip Ganassi Racing claimed the victory in the 24hour race. Defending Grand-Am Series champion Scott Pruett drove the last leg in the Rolex 24 and held off Ganassi teammate Scott Dixon on a final restart. Pruett pulled away from Dixon and third-place finisher Joao Barbosa after the greenwhite restart and won the Daytona Prototype class by 2.42 seconds. In the Rolex 24, teams of three or four drivers race for 24 hours straight, taking turns in the team car. Fogarty’s teammates on GAINSCO/Bob Stallings included five-time Sprint Cup champion Jimmie Johnson and Alex Gurney. A five-year Bend resident, Fogarty finished 21st at last year’s Rolex 24 with teammates Gurney, Johnson and Jimmy Vasser. GAINSCO/Bob Stallings finished seventh at the Rolex 24 in 2009 but went on to win the Grand-Am Rolex Sports Car Series Championship. Ganassi is now the only car owner to win the four biggest races in the United States during a 12-month period — the other three being the Daytona 500, the Indianapolis 500 and the Brickyard 400.

arrett McAllister got a taste of what it’s like to be homeless two years ago while trying to survive as an elite bike racer in New Mexico. Then a recent college graduate from Iowa, McAllister took what money he earned from his jobs as a bike shop mechanic and a coffee shop barista and spent it on bikes and bike racing fees. When an apartment rental fell through and he couldn’t afford a deposit, he ended up living out of his car for three months. “I didn’t necessarily have to be (homeless), but trying to bike race and work at

Snowboarder from Bend places eighth ASPEN, Colo. — Bend’s Janna Meyen-Weatherby finished in eighth place Sunday in the women’s snowboard slopestyle event of the Winter X Games. Finland’s Enni Rukajarvi won the event with a score of 92.66. Britain’s Jenny Jones finished second (89.33), and Jamie Anderson, of South Lake Tahoe, Calif., was third (86). In slopestyle, riders are judged on tricks performed down a course of jumps and rails. Scores are based on the degree of difficulty and execution of each trick. According to espn.com, Meyen-Weatherby looked as stylish as ever riding through the course, but she could not put together a solid run. She finished with a best-run score of 46.33. Meyen-Weatherby, 33, who recently announced that she plans to retire after the 2012 season, won four consecutive X Games gold medals in slopestyle from 2003 to 2006. She won the bronze medal last year. —Bulletin staff report

“You used to walk on eggshells not wanting to upset Kenny. Now, he helps solve the problem instead of being the problem. … Every day I look at my son and think how far he’s come, and every day I thank the Lord he let him do it.” — Rebecca VerValen, the mother of Bend High wrestler Kenny Dailey

Bend wrestler Kenny Dailey reacts as he watches a teammate wrestle a Summit opponent earlier this month. Dailey has excelled in wrestling despite a troubled past that included homelessness and stints in juvenile detention.
A positive force Kenny Dailey used his last chance to escape from a troubled youth to become a standout at Bend High
Editor’s note: This is the second story in a two-part series about Bend High junior Kenny Dailey. As told Sunday in the first part of the series, Dailey had been kicked out of multiple middle schools in Bend and arrested several times for fights before finding direction and purpose in wrestling as an eighthgrader. But his issues with anger and his propensity for violence were not yet behind him.
K
enny Dailey’s eighth-grade wrestling season at Pilot Butte Middle School changed his entire outlook on life. He was going to class. His grades were good. And for the first time in his life he was receiving positive feedback from an array of adults. “As soon as I got started in wrestling, everything started to go up,” Dailey reflects. “I was staying on track. But as soon as wrestling was over, my grades went down … and I got into another fight.” After making such progress with his life while he was wrestling, Dailey crashed after the season. The fight, which took place in May 2008, landed him a one-year expulsion from Bend-La Pine Schools, and he was forced to finish the school year going to the district’s “court school.” (Court school is for stu-
BEAU EASTES dents who have been expelled from the school district and in most cases are dealing with the Deschutes County juvenile court system.) Dailey’s mother, Rebecca VerValen, recalls that her son was running out of chances. “He had to go to court school since he’d already had second-chance school,” VerValen says. “He’d drained all his options at that point. We were thinking he was going to have to start high school in court school.” In addition to expulsion, Dailey’s fight violated terms of his probation from his previous altercations and he spent two weeks in juvenile detention, the longest of his multiple incarcerations. “Juvie’s not fun,” Dailey says, reflecting on what he is confident will turn out to be his final stay in a detention center. “I told myself that’s not where I want to spend the rest of my life.” See Dailey / D5
BEAVERTON — Coach Chip Kelly and the Oregon Ducks, who earned a berth in the BCS championship game after going undefeated in the regular season, were among the winners at the 59th annual Oregon Sports Awards. Oregon track standouts Ashton Eaton and Brianne Theisen were honored with the Bill Hayward award for amateur athlete of the year. Eaton, a graduate of Ashton Eaton MountainView High School in Bend, broke the world indoor heptathlon record set by Dan O’Brien in 1993 before winning his third straight NCAA decathlon title last summer. Theisen won the NCAA heptathlon title. Kelly, in his second year as Oregon’s coach, won the Slats Gill Sportsperson of the Year award, while the Ducks were among four recipients of the George Pasero Award for team of the year. Among the other winners were Ndamukong Suh, a Portland native who plays for the Detroit Lions, and Mariel Zagunis, a two-time Olympic gold medalwinning fencer. Southern Oregon wrestler Mitchell Lofstedt and Linfield softball player Staci Doucette each won Ad Rutschman awards for outstanding small-college athletes. Annamarie Maag of Jesuit, winner of three straight state cross-country titles, won the Nike-Steve Prefontaine Award honoring the prep distance runner of the year. Jefferson High school basketball player Terrence Jones and three-sport athlete Elizabeth Brenner of Jesuit won honors as top high school athletes from class 6A-5A. Sweet Home track and field star Dakotah Keyes and Santiam Christian basketball player Tayla Woods were honored as top 4A-1A athletes. Along with the Ducks, the SOU men’s cross-country team, the Eastside United FC-Liverpool soccer team and the Oregon NW Juniors 18 Air Max volleyball team also won George Pasero awards. Former Duck Ahmad Rashad hosted the ceremony on Sunday night at Nike’s Beaverton headquarters.

S B Basketball • Pacers fire O’Brien, make Vogel interim coach: The Indiana Pacers have fired coach Jim O’Brien after failing to make the playoffs each of the past three years and squandering a promising start this season. Assistant coach Frank Vogel will take over the team on an interim basis. The Pacers went 121-169 under O’Brien and are 17-27 this season, having lost seven of their past eight games. O’Brien was ejected in his final game, a 110-89 loss to Chicago on Saturday. • Hawks’ Smith fined for obscene gesture: The NBA has fined Atlanta Hawks forward Josh Smith $25,000 for making an obscene gesture during a game. The incident occurred with less than 4 minutes remaining in Atlanta’s 111-102 win over the New York Knicks on Friday night. The league announced the fine on Sunday. It is the second penalty against the Hawks to be handed down from the game. Forward Marvin Williams was suspended for two games on Saturday for a fight with New York’s Shawne Williams in the final minute of the game. Shawne Williams drew a one-game suspension.
Winter sports • Kostelic wins World Cup super combined: Ivica Kostelic erased a massive deficit in the slalom leg in Chamonix, France, to win a World Cup super combined race Sunday, clinching the discipline title with his seventh victory this month. Kostelic earned his 18th career victory by finishing in a combined time of 2 minutes, 57.12 seconds, while fellow Croat Natko Zrncic-Dim was 0.51 seconds back in a career-best second and Aksel Lund Svindal of Norway was third, 0.53 behind. • Snow, fog wipe out women’s ski races in Italy: A snowstorm and thick fog forced organizers to call off both World Cup women’s ski races this weekend in Sestriere, Italy. The decision was made Sunday morning, with organizers already having postponed the downhill originally slated for Saturday. The women’s circuit now has four races to make up, because giant slalom and slalom races were postponed due to warm weather in Maribor, Slovenia, earlier this month. The International Ski Federation has given no indication when the races might be made up, but it will likely be after the world championships, which begin Feb. 8 in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany. • Bradley wins first U.S. title: A few months after plotting out his retirement, Ryan Bradley won his first title at the U.S. Figure Skating Championships in Greensboro, N.C. It was hardly a convincing victory for the guy who was lured back by a fan campaign on his Facebook and Twitter accounts, however. A conservative performance left Bradley fourth in the free skate, but his lead from the short program — and some meltdowns from the guys who’d been right behind him — was enough to claim the title. The 27-year-old finished with 231.90 points, edging out up-and-comers Richard Dornbush and Ross Miner. • White wins fourth straight pipe title at Winter X: Shaun White has captured his fourth straight superpipe crown at the Winter X Games in Aspen, Colo., holding off Scotty Lago by performing his signature trick, a difficult maneuver few can do. White, a two-time Olympic gold medalist, cemented the win on his second run Sunday night, pulling out the Double McTwist 1260, in which he launches himself high above the pipe, then does two head-over-heels flips and 3½ rotations.

Baseball • Report: King’s son interested in buying into Mets: The son of Martin Luther King Jr. is reportedly interested in becoming a minority owner of the New York Mets. The New York Post reported Sunday that Martin Luther King III is part of a bid that includes former Mets first baseman Ed Kranepool, Donn Clendenon Jr. and television executive Larry Meli. Clendenon’s father was MVP of the Mets’ 1969 World Series victory.
Football • Report: Bengals want $43 million from county over decade: Commissioners in the county that includes Cincinnati say the county can’t afford the $43 million the Cincinnati Bengals want for repairs and upgrades at their football stadium over the next decade. The Cincinnati Enquirer obtained the plan through a public records request. It says the Bengals want four times the amount Hamilton County expected to spend. The county owns the stadium and must pay for improvements under the lease terms. The team says the total includes $8 million for a new scoreboard within two years. Commissioner Greg Hartmann says the county can’t fund improvements unless it gets the revenue to pay for them. — The Associated Press

PULLMAN, Wash. — Klay Thompson scored 25 points and Washington State upset No. 18 Washington 87-80 on Sunday to pick up a signature win in its quest for an NCAA tournament bid. Reggie Moore added 18 points and five assists for Washington State (15-6, 5-4 Pac-10), which held high-scoring Washington to 37 percent shooting, and broke a four-game losing streak to its rival. Isaiah Thomas scored 19 points for Washington (15-5, 7-2), which fell into a tie with Arizona for first in the Pac-10. Justin Holiday added 16 points for the Huskies, who were trying to open 8-1 in the Pac-10 for the first time since 1984. Washington’s Matthew Bryan-Amaning, who came in averaging 16 points per game, was held to six points. Thompson, the leading scorer in the Pac-10, made nine of 18 shots and added four assists and five steals for the Cougars. Faisal Aden scored 15, and the Cougars shot 48 percent. Leading by two at halftime, Washington State opened the second half with a 10-1 run, including a 3-pointer and spectacular alley-oop dunk by Moore, for a 55-44 lead. Washington missed its first five shots of the second half and did not make a field goal until Holiday’s 3-pointer with 14:33 left. But the Huskies did make seven of eight free throws to close to 57-53 with 13 minutes left. Thompson hit a lay-up and 3-pointer as WSU built a 63-55 lead.
Washington did not make its second field goal of the second half until Scott Suggs scored with 9:39 left, cutting WSU’s lead to 66-60. The Huskies were two of 11 from the field in the second half at that point, but had made 12 of 13 free throws to stay close. Thomas, the third-leading scorer in the Pac10, did not make his first field goal until just 6:13 was left in the game, a 3-pointer that cut WSU’s lead to 75-69. Thompson replied with a basket and a 3pointer for an 80-69 lead. But Thomas made another 3-pointer and a jumper to pull the Huskies within 80-74 with less than five minutes left. But they were scoreless for nearly four minutes.

Novak Djokovic celebrates during his men’s singles final win over Andy Murray at the Australian Open in Melbourne, Australia, Sunday.
Australian Open title goes to Serb Djokovic By John Pye The Associated Press
MELBOURNE, Australia — Novak Djokovic gave his old friend Andy Murray a sympathetic hug and a few consoling words, then got on with the real celebrations. Djokovic walked to the middle of the court, tossed his racket into the crowd, then stripped off his shirt and shoes and hurled them, too. The 23-year-old Serb had plenty to celebrate after his 6-4, 6-2, 6-3 win over Murray in the Australian Open final on Sunday night. Djokovic’s second Australian title made him only the fourth active player on the men’s tour to win multiple majors. Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer have had a lock on the men’s side, winning 21 of the previous 23, while Lleyton Hewitt has two titles — the last coming at Wimbledon in 2002. “It’s been a fantastic tournament for me,” Djokovic said. “I don’t want to fly up to the sky and say, ‘I am the best,’ or whatever. I cannot compare to Rafa and Roger’s success.” He’s the most successful player so far in 2011, though, and that’s what counts right now. “Certainly this will give me a lot of motivation for the continuation of the season, because to win a Grand Slam at the start of the season is the best start you can ask for,” he said. “It means a world to me. I’m still 23. I still have a lot of time to go.” Top-ranked Nadal came to Australia aiming to win a fourth consecutive major and complete a “Rafa Slam.” He lost in the quarterfinals. Federer came in as the defending champion and lost to Djokovic in the semifinals. The loss for fifth-seeded Murray continued his horrible stretch in Grand Slam finals — he hasn’t won a set in three tries, including losses to Federer last year in Australia and at the 2009 U.S. Open. It also extended the long drought for British men at the majors that dates back to Fred Perry’s titles in 1936. Djokovic and Murray have been friends since they started playing each other at age 11 or 12, and often practice against each other. They’re even talking about playing doubles together. “I understand how he feels. It’s his third final and he didn’t get the title,” Djokovic said. “As I said on court, I really have big respect for him and his game, because I think he has everything that it takes to become a Grand Slam champion.” He thinks the pressure on Murray to break the British drought may weigh the Scotsman down. “It is in some ways a mental issue when you are facing a situation, playing the finals of a Grand Slam, being so close to winning a title,” Djokovic said. “Every time you get it there, you know, you want to win it badly, but some things go wrong. “You’re thinking too much. You’re worrying too much in your head,” he added. “It’s a mental battle, definitely. Bottom line is that this is a very mental sport in the end.” That’s why he took his time to reflect after winning a 38hit rally in the 10th game with a brilliant backhand that forced an error to set up set point on Murray’s serve. He closed his eyes tightly, clenched his fists and let out a scream of satisfaction.
LOS ANGELES — Paul Pierce says the Boston Celtics had no reason to discuss their heartbreaking loss in Game 7 of the NBA finals last summer before they returned to Staples Center on Sunday. With a spectacularly fluid performance on offense against the outclassed Lakers, Pierce and the Celtics showed some things just don’t need to be said out loud. Pierce scored 32 points, Kevin Garnett had 18 points and 13 rebounds with a large bandage over a five-stitch cut on his head, and the Celtics overcame Kobe Bryant’s 41 points in a 109-96 victory over Los Angeles. Ray Allen scored 21 points for the Celtics in the longtime rivals’ first meeting since Los Angeles rallied from a late 13-point deficit for an 83-79 win in the deciding game last June, ending an exhausting series in dramatic fashion. “It’s another game, but it was definitely an emotional game, especially because we lost Game 7 here,” said Pierce, who dueled down the second-half stretch with Bryant. “It feels good to come back in this building and get a win.” The Celtics overwhelmed the Lakers in the rematch, with Rajon Rondo catalyzing the offense by racking up 15 of his 16 assists after halftime. Boston showed off its enviably complete game, outrebounding the Lakers 43-30 — a big problem for Boston in last season’s finale — while hitting nine 3-pointers and getting 34 assists to Los Angeles’ 10. With his every assist against the defense of Bryant and Derek Fisher, Rondo also made a matter-of-fact statement about the Celtics’ prowess in areas the Lakers can’t match right now. “We knew we could run on L.A.,” Rondo said. “L.A., given the personnel that we have, we thought we could outrun them.” Also on Sunday: Heat . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 108 Thunder . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 103 OKLAHOMA CITY — Dwyane Wade scored 32 points and Eddie House hit the go-ahead 3pointer with 22.2 seconds left as Miami got its Big 3 back together to beat Oklahoma City.

SAN DIEGO — The best Lefty at Torrey Pines on Sunday turned out to be Bubba Watson. Watson made clutch putts on the final two holes, including a 12-foot birdie on the par-5 18th for a 5-under 67 to win the Farmer Insurance Open in a finish filled with the kind of drama that few could have predicted. Phil Mickelson — the more popular Lefty and the San Diego favorite — was one shot behind and was only 228 yards away in the rough when he decided to lay up before Watson even attempted his birdie putt. Then came a loud cheer as Watson sank his putt for a twoshot lead, meaning Mickelson would have to hole out a wedge from 72 yards for eagle to force a playoff. He has his caddie, Jim “Bones” Mackay tend the flag — rare for a full shot from the fairway — and the gallery gasped when the ball landed just behind the hole and started to spin back toward the cup. But it never had a chance. Mickelson had said the secret to him playing the revamped South Course was to play it safe, and he followed that strategy all the way to a runner-up finish. Mickelson closed with a 69 to finish one shot behind. Mickelson said the grass was into his ball, and that a hybrid would not have been enough to clear the water. To hit 3-wood would have gone well over the green, which he saw as a difficult shot. He figured his best chance at eagle was from the fairway, using the bank behind the hole to feed it toward the cup. “I’m disappointed,” Mickelson said. “I wanted to start the year off with a win. On the other hand, I played really good golf.” Watson finished at 16-under 272 for his second victory, although this one came against a much stronger field than his playoff win at the Travelers Championship last summer. “It showed I can do it,” he said. “I’ve done it twice now. I’m only 50 behind Phil and about 80 behind Tiger. So they better watch out.” Watson held off Mickelson, Dustin Johnson and Jhonattan Vegas, the Venezuela rookie coming off a win at the Bob Hope Classic last week. Vegas tied Watson for the lead on the 10th hole and stayed in range throughout the back nine until his 5iron from the first cut of rough on the 18th came up well short and into the water. Vegas made bogey for a 68 and tied for third with Johnson, who shot 66. Tiger Woods also was in the field, although no one noticed during the final two hours. Woods, who started the final round eight shots behind, closed with a 75 to end his five-tournament winning streak at Torrey Pines. He had never finished out of the top 10 at Torrey Pines, but wound up 15 shots back in a tie for 44th. It was his worst season debut since his first full season on the PGA Tour in 1997. “I have some work to do,” Woods said. “There’s no doubt about that.” Watson had a one-shot lead over Vegas when he flew the 17th green from a fairway bunker, leaving him a downhill chip that went some 10 feet past the hole. He made that for par to keep the lead. On the final hole, with the tees moved so far up that it played only 522 yards, Watson hit 7-iron long into a tough spot in the bunker, again with the green running away from him. He played out safely to 12 feet, and pumped his fist once when it dropped into the center of the cup. Watson said he tried not to get too excited after making the putt, figuring that Mickelson was in the fairway ready to go for the green. He didn’t realize until walking off the green that Mickelson had already laid up. Even then, he wasn’t ready to celebrate. Mickelson made his own charge. Belting a driver on the 17th, he played a perfect wedge that caught the slope and stopped 3 feet away for birdie that pulled him to within one shot. But he popped up his tee shot to the left, and while it appeared as though he had a good enough lie to reach the green, he quickly pulled out wedge and hit back toward the fairway. Watson, who couldn’t hold back tears when he won for the first time last summer as his father was dying, cried again. His father passed away from cancer late last year. Bill Haas, who shared the lead with Mickelson going into the final round, bogeyed the first hole and never caught up. He birdied the last hole for a 75 and tied for ninth. In other events on Sunday: Nicklaus, Watson defend title in Champions Skins KAANAPALI, Hawaii — Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson successfully defended their Champions Skins Game title, finishing with seven skins and $310,000 to edge Mark O’Meara and Bernhard Langer by $10,000. Nicklaus and Watson took five skins and $250,000 on the par-3 17th. Nicklaus hit a 6-iron from 155 yards to 10 feet and Watson made the birdie putt in the alternate-shot event that they also won in 2007. Fred Couples and Nick Price claimed $80,000, matching Ben Crenshaw and Fuzzy Zoeller. Par putt lifts Casey to Volvo championship RIFFA, Bahrain — England’s Paul Casey made a 5-foot par putt on the final hole to win the inaugural Volvo Golf Champions, his first victory in 20 months. Casey needed the putt on The Royal Golf Club’s Montgomerie Course to secure the victory after playing partner Peter Hanson of Sweden missed made a bogey after hitting into a greenside bunker. Casey shot a 4under 68 to finish at 20-under 268. The victory was his 11th on European Tour and first since the 2009 BMW PGA Champions. Hanson (69) and Spain’s Miguel Angel Jimenez (67) finished a stroke back.

NFL: PRO BOWL
SOCCER
Fast start leads NFC over AFC By Bob Baum The Associated Press
HONOLULU — A tropical rainstorm moved in from the Pacific and cleared just before the Pro Bowl began on Sunday. What followed was a sloppy show that was not exactly riveting entertainment a week in advance of the Super Bowl. The NFC’s 55-41 victory, a game not nearly as interesting as that score would indicate, did nothing to repair the tattered image of the NFL’s allstar contest. New England’s Bill Belichick, the AFC coach and a man of even fewer words than usual, might have come closest to summing up the game with his mumbled cliche, “It is what it is.” MVP DeAngelo Hall had one of his team’s five interceptions and returned a fumble 34 yards for a touchdown to help the NFC match a Pro Bowl scoring record in a 55-41 victory over turnover-prone AFC. He gets a new Cadillac for his efforts. “I was just about to buy another SUV,” the Washington Redskins cornerback said, “so to come out here and grab one for free, I like that.” AFC quarterbacks Philip Rivers, Peyton Manning and Matt Cassel each threw first-half interceptions to help the NFC blow open a 42-0 lead in a performance ugly even by the historically low standards of this game. Fittingly for this strange contest, center Alex Mack of Cleveland scored the final touchdown on a 67yard pass play that featured two laterals with 16 seconds left. Carolina’s Jon Beason returned the fifth interception thrown by the AFC, and second by Matt Cassel, 59 yards for the NFC’s final touchdown to match the single-team scoring record set in the NFC’s 55-52 victory in 2004. “It feels amazing. It was a lot of fun,” Minnesota’s Adrian Peterson said. “We came out and put up a bunch of points and had some fun doing it, so it was a good day.” Belichick, after his Super Bowl favorite Patriots lost to the New York Jets in the divisional playoffs, had to watch his AFC squad muddle through a first half that ended 42-7. Pro Bowls are, by their nature,

NFC cornerback DeAngelo Hall, of the Washington Redskins, celebrates an interception, as cornerback Brent Grimes (20), of the Atlanta Falcons, smiles in the background during the first quarter of the Pro Bowl on Sunday in Honolulu. laid-back affairs, seemingly played at half speed by players whose biggest concern is to get on the plane home without injury. The AFC, though, took that attitude to an uncomfortable extreme early on before coming back to outscore the NFC 41-13. The NFC led 42-0 after Steven Jackson waltzed through the AFC defense for a 21-yard touchdown — and there still was 4½ minutes left in the second quarter. Rivers, starting in place of injured Tom Brady, was picked off twice in the first quarter, the second by Hall.
“You underthrow one just a hair and they intercept it,” Rivers said. “You get a deflection for an interception. ... They had all the breaks early.” Manning, in his 11th Pro Bowl, came on briefly in relief and his second pass was picked off. Then Cassel got his chance and quickly joined in the spirit of things, throwing his second pass of the game directly into the hands of Minnesota cornerback Antoine Winfield. But just when it appeared it would be the most one-sided game in Pro Bowl history, eclipsing the Joe The-
ismann-led 45-3 NFC rout of the AFC in 1984, the AFC scored three touchdowns in a row. The last came on the game’s seventh turnover, when Devin Hester tried to hand the kickoff return to Hall, but the ball fell to the turf. Montell Owens of Jacksonville scooped it up and ran it in 10 yards for the score to make it 42-21 with 10 minutes left in the third quarter. With his seven extra points, tying a Pro Bowl record, along with two field goals, David Akers moved ahead of Morten Andersen (45) for most career Pro Bowl points with 52. The Philadelphia kicker would have had more but his 36-yard field goal try in the fourth quarter bounced off the right upright. “Morten Andersen was a mentor of mine and I competed with Morten for a job in Atlanta and he taught me a lot,” Akers said, “so it means a lot to be able to pass a legend like that.” The game returned to its traditional home in Hawaii after a one-year detour to Miami, much to the approval of the players involved. Eagles quarterback Michael Vick started but played only the first quarter, completing five of 10 passes for 59 yards. Peterson rushed for 80 yards in 14 carries for the NFC, including a 14yarder to set a Pro Bowl record with four career rushing touchdowns. Atlanta got good performances from Matt Ryan (nine of 13 for 118 yards and two touchdowns with an interception), Michael Turner (eight carries for 53 yards) and Roddy White (five catches for 69 yards). Notes: A 70-yard punt by Mat McBriar of Dallas in the first quarter tied for second-longest in Pro Bowl history. ... The state of Hawaii is paying the NFL about $4 million this season and next to keep the Pro Bowl team in Honolulu. Location for the contest is up in the air after 2012. ... Peterson had been tied with three career rushing TDs with Earl Campbell, Chuck Muncie and Mike Alstott. ... Tony Gonzalez added to his Pro Bowl record for career receptions (42) and moved into first in TD catches with his sixth. ... The attendance of 49,338 was just shy of a sellout.
Dallas-Fort Worth welcomes first Super Bowl By Schuyler Dixon The Associated Press
FORT WORTH, Texas — The Pittsburgh Steelers and Green Bay Packers will really know they’re in Texas when they get to their hotels and see the handmade saddles waiting for them, made especially to mark their visit. “They can go to Miami, they can go to New Orleans and have Super Bowls,” said Mark Dunlap, general manager of M.L. Leddy’s, the saddle maker. “What, if any, object speaks about those communities any better than a saddle that represents Fort Worth and Texas? I can’t think of a better thing to put up.” The two saddles — an AFC one and another for the NFC — will be just one of the Texas touches evident when the teams, fans and media arrive for the NFL championship being played in the Dallas Cowboys’ new $1.3 billion home next Sunday. There also will be the annual World’s Original Indoor Rodeo, the twice daily cattle drives and a rental car lot the size of Rhode Island. Well, not really, but it seems like it. The leading attribute in Texas? How about hospitality? From the
beginning, the North Texas Super Bowl Host Committee emphasized a regional effort that envisioned more volunteers than previous host cities and key events spread across the 30 miles that separate Dallas and Fort Worth. And don’t forget about Arlington, halfway in between. That’s where the game will be played at the home of “America’s Team,” regardless of what everyone heard when the Packers and Steelers whooped and hollered about “going to Dallas!” “You have a western goal post where the AFC team is going to be,” said Fort Worth Mayor Mike Moncrief. “You have an eastern goal post where the NFC team is going to be. And then the 50-yard line is Arlington.” The site also has another Texas pastime covered: driving. Arlington remains the largest city in the country without mass transportation, and the Dallas area’s light rail service still hasn’t quite made it out to the area’s massive airport. Instead, Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport has a huge car rental center. The Super Bowl effort has been described as the most cooperative in
the region since the airport that covers 30 square miles went up nearly 40 years ago, and organizers are perfectly comfortable with the idea that visitors will land, pick up their rental and drive who knows how many miles a day to find the action. Maybe it’s downtown Dallas, where the NFL Experience and media center aren’t too far from the site of JFK’s assassination and a slew of Super Bowl parties. Maybe it’s downtown Fort Worth, where Sundance Square sits under a huge longhorn cattle mural and figures to be one of the heartbeats of Super Bowl week. Just west of downtown Fort Worth, rodeo cowboys will be riding bulls and young boys and girls will be showing sheep, goats and other livestock. A few miles north, cowboys on horseback lead real-life longhorns on a cattle drive down Exchange Street twice a day in the Fort Worth Stockyards. Custom-order cowboy boots, hats, belts and buckles are plentiful. “For people that haven’t experienced Texas, I think it leaves a lot to the imagination,” said Shanna Weaver, spokeswoman for the Fort
Worth Stock Show & Rodeo. “I think it makes them curious and anxious to come see what Texas is all about.” North Texas waited nearly 50 years for a Super Bowl in part because no one ever came up with a plan to put a dome on the Cotton Bowl, which was once home to the expansion Dallas Cowboys. The weather is likely to remind these Super Bowl visitors why the game never came. Sure, Dallas-Fort Worth can warm you with Florida-like winter weather, but it’s not Florida. Early arrivals likely will learn that first hand, with a forecast for Super Bowl week calling for plummeting temperatures Tuesday and highs barely above freezing Wednesday. There’s a chance for icy precipitation, too. Organizers say they’re prepared for all weather contingencies. And they’re counting on the warmth of more than 10,000 friendly faces — mostly Texans — greeting guests with a smile. “That’s what we’re known for in Texas,” said Tara Green, vice president of the host committee. “We don’t have a beach. We have warm, friendly people, so we want to roll out the Texas red carpet.”

Team Lidstrom takes All-Star victory over Team Staal The Associated Press
Karl B. DeBlaker / The Associated Press
Team Staal’s Patrick Sharp (10), of the Chicago Blackhawks, and David Backes (42), of the St. Louis Blues, work for the puck with Team Lidstrom’s Keith Yandle, of the Phoenix Coyotes, during the third period of the NHL All-Star Game on Sunday in Raleigh, N.C.
RALEIGH, N.C. — Nicklas Lidstrom limited his All-Star losses to a flip of the puck and the skills competition. The game was all his. Unfazed by having to pick second in the inaugural NHL All-Star fantasy draft, the Detroit Red Wings’ defenseman built and went on to lead another winning team — though this was the first one named after him. The four-time Stanley Cup champion and six-time winner of the Norris Trophy, given to the league’s top defenseman, was a plus-7 as he captained Team Lidstrom to an 11-10 victory over Team Staal in the All-Star game on Sunday night. “It’s a matter of being on the ice at the right moments, I guess,” the understated Lidstrom said of his performance. “They won the skills (Saturday), so I think we kind of came out even.” Eric Staal had the No. 1 pick in the fantasy draft on Friday, the unconditional support of his hometown Carolina Hurricanes fans behind him, and a four-goal lead in the first period. Still, it wasn’t enough to beat one of the NHL’s greatest winners.
“Pretty good night for Nicklas Lidstrom,” Staal said. “It’s fun to get to know him a little bit more ... just doing this whole experience for the first time with him. He played a great game as you can tell by the stats.” Danny Briere, Jonathan Toews, and Martin St. Louis scored during a fourminute span of the third period to lift Team Lidstrom. Another Team Lidstrom defenseman, Shea Weber of Nashville, had four assists and was plus-6, and Dallas forward Loui Eriksson had two goals and two assists. Boston’s Tim Thomas stopped 11 of 15 shots in the third period and became the first goalie to earn the win in three consecutive All-Star games. Maybe Staal’s pick of Hurricanes goalie Cam Ward with the No. 1 selection in the fantasy draft wasn’t such a good idea, after all. Tampa Bay’s Steven Stamkos, the league leader with 38 goals, scored the one that made it 6-6 in the second. Ward could hardly be blamed for the four goals he gave up in the first. Pittsburgh’s Marc-Andre Fleury also allowed four in the opening 20 minutes of a typically defenseless All-Star game.
Qatar looks to Asian Cup as a learning process By Caroline Cheese The Associated Press
DOHA, Qatar — Billed as a dress rehearsal for the World Cup, the 2011 Asian Cup was nothing of the sort. Qatar’s win in the December vote for the 2022 World Cup hosting rights led to a storm of criticism, and put the spotlight on the Asian Cup like never before. The Gulf nation looked to be passing the first test quite comfortably until Saturday’s final, when several thousand fans were refused entry to the 40,000-seat Khalifah Stadium despite holding tickets for the match between Australia and Japan. It was the first major organizational hitch in the tournament, and perhaps it proved Qatar still has lessons to learn about handling big sporting events. The main criticism up until Saturday had been the rows of empty seats at many games, but a look back at previous tournaments shows that is a common problem at the Asian Cup, which is still catching up with its continental equivalents. “We would like to see our competition is comparable to the best in the world. This is a target,” Asian Football Confederation President Mohamed bin Hammam said last week. Not many sporting events, let alone soccer tournaments, are comparable to the World Cup. Visiting fans, other than from neighboring countries, were a rare sight at the Asian Cup. In 2022, thousands of supporters from across the globe will descend on Qatar, and the locals should be more willing to turn out to watch the world’s best teams and their star players than they were to watch the best that Asia has to offer. Indeed, while soccer is Qatar’s most popular sport, fans are more likely to be found avidly watching Real Madrid, Barcelona or Manchester United on the TV than heading to a stadium and supporting their local club. And some of the fans who did travel to Qatar for the tournament left angry after being shut out of the final. The gates to the Khalifah Stadium closed shortly after kickoff, even though thousands of fans were still waiting to get in, and organizers said the tight security was due to members of the royal family attending the match. They promised to examine what went wrong, and insisted only about 700 of those shut out were ticket holders. But that will do little to appease those fans who missed Japan’s 1-0 win after being turned away at the gates. “We should be allowed to enter,” said Sameh Abu Assi, who had driven nearly 1,000 miles from Saudi Arabia and said he spent $2,000 on hotels and tickets. “How do they expect to organize the 2022 World Cup? They can’t even organize this.” What’s clear is that Qatar, for better or worse, will produce a World Cup like no other. Soccer and beer are inseparable partners for most fans, but alcohol is available only in licensed bars in mainly five-star hotels — and at a high price. A Budweiser, one of the official sponsors of the World Cup, can cost nearly $10. Ae-young, a 27-year-old South Korean who lives in the United Arab Emirates and came to Qatar for the Asian Cup, described Doha as a city that “sleeps early.” “It is not like in Korea where life is 24 hours,” she said. “And the places we do go to have fun are all closed, and cost a lot.” The alcohol restrictions are expected to be relaxed in time for the World Cup, with drinking allowed in designated fan zones, but rowdy reveling seems unlikely to be tolerated. In its place, visitors are encouraged to visit the Corniche, take boat trips, wander through the Museum of Islamic Art, or shop in one of the many air-conditioned malls or at the Souq Waqif. If none of those options are appealing, fans will end up spending most of their time at soccer matches. Qatar will be the smallest country to have hosted a World Cup, a fact the bid committee was keen to play up. “We promoted a compact World Cup,” Bin Hammam said. “We told the world: Please come and feel how much more comfortable a World Cup can be organized in a small country.” It is possible to drive around the entire country in less than a day, and with World Cup venues no more than an hour apart, dedicated fans could squeeze in three matches in 24 hours. At the Asian Cup, every game took place in Doha or within a short drive, although the city’s oppressive traffic meant 15-minute journeys could take more like an hour. There is no public transportation to speak of, but Qatar plans to build a new rail network and metro system, and provide a shuttle bus system in 2022. With a bulging budget and several space-age stadiums planned, one of which will be wrapped in video screens, 2022 promises to be a World Cup to satisfy tech-heads and gadget geeks, too. The attitude of this gas-rich nation was summed up by Bora Milutinovic, an ambassador for the bid who has coached five different nations at World Cup tournaments. “Whatever might become a problem, won’t be a problem,” the Serb said. “It’s not only a matter of money, it’s how it is spent. Qatar buys the best possible professional advice.” Providing cheaper hotels will take up part of the multibillion dollar budget: five-stars far outnumber two-stars in Doha. But dealing with the weather is a bigger problem, even with the Qatari billions. Expats appreciate the nation’s safe, family friendly environment and the ease of daily life, but all agree that summer heat topping out at 120 degrees can be unbearable. Derek Lyon, a Scotsman teaching at a school outside Doha, talks of taking his dog for a walk in the height of summer and the dog having “had enough after five minutes.” “I went to the game at Al-Sadd Stadium they organized when the FIFA inspectors were here, and the air conditioning was used. It was amazing,” Lyons said. “But you can’t air-condition a whole country.”

“Find something you want to do and focus all your time and energy on that. If you focus all your time on being good and doing something you like, you don’t want to ruin it.” — Bend High wrestler Kenny Dailey
Dailey Continued from D1 Despite the fight, which led to another round of charges in juvenile court, Dailey had the backing and confidence of his coaches, none of whom believed he presented a threat to other students, or that court school or being prohibited from playing sports would be of any benefit to him. But one slip-up, and Dailey would be back in a detention center — or worse. Sports, it seemed, was the only thing that could keep him on the straight and narrow. “Those coaches and principals at Pilot Butte fought for Kenny,” says VerValen, whom still gets emotional when talking about the educators who she believes went out on a limb for her son. “They could see in him what no one else could.” Among those in Dailey’s corner was Gene Dusan, a vice principal at Pilot Butte Middle School and the administrator in charge of discipline. “Gene Dusan, he was tough on Kenny in middle school,” VerValen adds. “There were times I looked at (Dusan) and never wanted to see him again, being (in his office) all the time — and never for a good thing. But he fought for Kenny, and even wrote a letter to the judge.”
Bend’s Mountain View High, is still amazed at how far Dailey has come since the two first met a little more than two years ago. “Wrestling was a fit from day one; you could see some of the misbehavior stuff fade,” says Dusan, who adds that he was not looking to bolster the Pilot Butte wrestling team as much as he was trying to throw a troubled kid a lifeline when he encouraged Dailey to turn out for wrestling. “However,” Dusan adds, “it’s an absolute miracle that he has evolved out of the spiral and dynamics of his life.”
Looking forward
Rob Kerr / The Bulletin
Bend High wrestler Kenny Dailey is encouraged by coaches before wrestling in a match earlier this month. “That was a reality check to know what was going on,” Dailey says about the swift punishment handed down at Bend High for what, in retrospect, was a fairly minor altercation. “It was like, ‘OK, if I get in trouble, this is a little taste of what is going to happen.’ ”
Last chance Eventually, Dusan, along with PBMS wrestling coach Scott Novelli and several teachers and coaches at Bend High — the high school which boundaries Dailey lived within — persuaded the court system and the school district to let Dailey start high school at Bend High — on academic probation, and under constant supervision. “My recommendation was for him to come to Bend High on strict academic probation,” Dusan says, recalling the plan he proposed by which Dailey would be allowed to attend Bend High before his one-year expulsion had expired. “All passing grades, no referrals (for discipline). … It was make it or break it, but I felt reasonably sure he’d rise to the occasion.” The Bend High administration made sure Dailey knew he had no room for error. “The staff here (at Bend High), they sat me down at the beginning of the school year,” Dailey says, recounting his admission as a freshman to Bend High School. “They said this was high school and there was a strict no-fighting policy … that this was going to be a lot different than middle school.” Still on probation from his previous fights, Dailey had eyes on him at all times. Luke Larwin, the Lava Bears’ wrestling coach, was Dailey’s teacher for freshman math. Novelli, who had moved to Bend High, instructed Dailey in P.E. Craig Walker, the varsity football coach and the school’s athletic director, taught Dailey in health class.
Turning the corner
Rob Kerr / The Bulletin ile
Kenny Dailey, left, also plays football for the Lava Bears and last fall was a starter for the Bend High team that advanced to the Class 5A state playoffs. “I knew I wanted to come here (to Bend High) and wrestle and play football,” says Dailey, who had never played football before, in part because he had been suspended or expelled during the previous football seasons. “(The coaches’ warnings) scared me into shape. I didn’t want to get kicked out.” Not even three weeks into the school year, though, Dailey’s temper was put to the test. Another student said something. Dailey said something back. The other kid shoved Dailey. Both were promptly hauled to the main office, and both received in-school suspension (in which students stay on campus but are not allowed to attend class.)
“The reality, though, is he (Dailey) did the right thing,” Walker observes. “Yeah, he probably shouldn’t have opened his mouth, but he did the right thing.” By turning his cheek, Dailey preserved the second chance his coaches had fought so hard for over the summer. As a disciplinary measure, he missed a freshman football game on the day of the incident. But he stayed out of trouble the rest of the school year. At the end of the freshman football schedule, Dailey was one of only a few freshmen who moved up to practice with the varsity. In wrestling, he competed in several varsity tournaments as a freshman.
The last two years of Kenny Dailey’s life have been pure bliss compared with his turbulent days in middle school. Since his in-school suspension in 2008, Dailey has had zero run-ins with school officials or law-enforcement authorities. “It’s all come together,” says Dailey, whose inspiring story of overcoming adversity made him a national semifinalist for the 2010 High School Football Rudy Award. “I’m being productive all year round. … I freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestle in the summer, and this spring I’m going to try rugby.” His living situation has also improved, as his family is currently renting a house near Bend High. “We’re in a new house, I’ve got my own room, and my little brother — the one who has autism — he’s on medication now,” Dailey explains. “Things fell into place and finally started to go right.” Dailey admits that he still gets angry sometimes. But he says participating in sports has given him the perspective and discipline to manage his temper. “My anger problem, it’s not 100 percent gone — you can’t get rid of it completely,” Dailey
Bicycles Continued from D1 Back in September, he was recruited to Central Oregon to manage Bend’s Community BikeShed as a volunteer with AmeriCorps, a national community service program. Though it has been around for a number of years and operated in some capacity at times as a bicycle cooperative, the BikeShed has emerged in 2011 with a clear mission: refurbish and service bikes for homeless and low-income families in Central Oregon. While bike donations and distribution continue to be conducted out of Bend’s Community Thrift Store on Franklin Avenue, the bike repair work and service are now performed at an industrial site near the Old Mill District. Bend’s Community BikeShed is a program of Bend’s Community Center (BCC), collaborates with about a dozen agencies in Central Oregon — NeighborImpact, Heart of Oregon Corps and the Department of Human Services, to name a few — to get free bikes in the hands of those who need them most. The BikeShed accepts donations of used bicycles and used bike parts, and volunteers refurbish, repair and rebuild them so well-functioning and safe bikes can then be put back into the community. “Our goal at BCC,” says manager Lainie Gleason, “is to help the homeless and low-income achieve a higher standard of living.” And distributing bicycles, she insists, is a key step toward achieving that goal. Homeless and low-income families who qualify can receive from one of

Volunteer Mark Clark, 57, behind, sorts donated bike parts. several agencies in Central Oregon a voucher that can be used at Bend’s Community Thrift Store to obtain a free bicycle. Repaired bikes are also offered for sale at the thrift store on Franklin Avenue and typically run from $25 to $100; money from those sales goes toward purchasing bike repair tools for the bike garage. As Gleason points out, a bicycle drastically reduces travel time for the homeless — many of whom are forced to live in camps away from population centers — to access in-town necessities, such as food, employment or a shower. “A number of homeless who have re-
ceived voucher bikes have come back to volunteer because they are grateful for the bike,” Gleason says. Low-income families, including children and teens, are also eligible to receive a voucher bike, which according to Gleason can “change the dynamic in their family.” “When you’re low-income, you’re usually working minimum-wage jobs,” Gleason observes. “And with many minimum-wage jobs, the schedule is weekends and evenings, when the bus system doesn’t operate, and that really hurts people. If they don’t have reliable transportation, they can’t get to work,
concedes. “But I’ve got a way to cope with it. … It’s easier to walk away when something wrong’s going on, or stuff that could cause problems.” While Dailey has benefited from the help and support of many administrators at Bend High, his desire and will to help himself are what have impressed his coaches the most. “In our society today, everyone’s a victim,” Walker says. “But Kenny sees the pay value in (handling things) one way versus another way. … Things that happen to you don’t have to be a sentence.” Larwin points out that educators and coaches are always trying to bring out the best in young people. He notes that how those young people respond, though, is entirely up to the kids themselves. “(Kids) still have to be the ones that buy in and commit and be willing to do the right thing when the right thing is really hard,” Larwin says. “Kenny bought into the things the football staff and we as a wrestling staff and the administrators here at Bend High are preaching to him. “It seems so simple to some people — just do what the coaches tell you to do,” Larwin adds. “But if there’s no habits, no expectations … if the situation at home isn’t one where academic greatness and top-notch behavior are expected, then the kids don’t have a sense of reality of that.” Dusan says he always believed Dailey had a shot at getting past his early struggles. But Dusan, a 30-year educator and now a vice principal at
let alone get a job. Having a bike can literally make or break their ability to have that job. “And that’s the other piece of achieving a higher standard of living,” Gleason continues. “They go from a oneincome household to a two-income household if one of them has a bike to get to work.” Gleason says that last year alone, the BikeShed donated more than 100 bikes to those in need in Central Oregon. But the demand for bikes far exceeds the BikeShed’s ability to supply them. “We run out of bikes all the time,” she says. “That’s why we have to say firstcome first-service, because we are inundated with requests.” Currently, the BikeShed garage is nearly overflowing with bikes, wheels, tires and other bike parts — all in varying states of disrepair. Some of the bikes can be refurbished and reused. Others are parted out and then recycled. While the nonprofit has plenty of bikes to work with, considerable time is required for the painstaking effort needed to transform a beat-up, rusty old bike into a safe, dependable ride. “We have limited space and tools, so there’s only so much you can do,” McAllister explains. “Bikes take time to build them right. If you are giving a bike to someone who is going to use it for transportation, you want it to be a good, functional bike that’s not going to have issues.” If they do have issues, such as a flat tire or faulty brakes, those who have received a bike through the voucher program can get help.

For all his progress, Dailey’s best days seem yet ahead of him. In three weeks he will wrestle at the Class 5A Special District 4 regional meet with a legitimate chance to advance to his first high school state tournament. Next fall, Dailey is expected to be one of many key players returning from a 2010 Bend High football team that made the state playoffs. Dailey says he is on track to graduate and talks about going to college, ideally at a place where he could wrestle. He has spent time volunteering with special-needs kids. He has taken on a leadership role at home. “You used to walk on eggshells not wanting to upset Kenny,” VerValen says. “Now, he helps solve the problem instead of being the problem. … Every day I look at my son and think how far he’s come, and every day I thank the Lord he let him do it.” Once a poster boy for bad behavior, Dailey now, under the direction of Novelli, talks with middle school kids who are going through rough times, offering them the kind of encouragement that helped him turn his own life around. “People that look at Kenny now — he’s well-spoken, mature — they have a hard time believing where he came from,” says Novelli, who remains close to Dailey. “He’s such a positive, powerful force on Bend’s campus.” Dailey has been refreshingly open about his past — from his unsettled upbringing to his personal transgressions — in part so others can learn from his mistakes, and in part to remind himself how close he came to letting his life get away from him. “Find something you want to do and focus all your time and energy on that,” Dailey says about his advice to younger teens struggling with issues like his own. “If you focus all your time on being good and doing something you like, you don’t want to ruin it. “It’s possible,” Dailey adds, “to go from dirt bottom to wherever you want to go.” Beau Eastes can be reached at 541-383-0305 or at beastes@ bendbulletin.com.

CYCLING INSIDER | RIDER PROFILE The Bulletin interviews a Central Oregon cyclist as part of our weekly “Cycling Insiderâ€? feature, whose rotating topics include rider profiles, safety tips, local ride recommendations and gear reviews. Local rider spotlight: Debra Windus Age: 57 Hometown: Madras Occupation: Currently unemployed, but her background is in the investment industry. Cycling preferences: Though she has sampled nearly every style of cycling, road riding is Windus’ discipline of choice. Cycling background: In her early 20s, Windus jetted overseas for a six-month cycling tour of Europe, where she rode through England, Belgium, France and the Netherlands. “It was around that time when there were a few books coming out about bicycle travel in Europe and I thought it made so much sense,â€? she recalls. “I’d heard that the roads were really good, no traffic and lots of little small roads. I thought it would be the perfect way to cover distances, but at a pace where you could really see the countryside and really get into the small villages. Camping and the youth hostel places were really cheap and a good way to meet fellow travelers.â€? But cycling was put on hold when Windus returned home. “Of course, life gets in the way ‌ work and family,â€? she says. “I didn’t really get back into doing a whole lot of cycling until my kids were more grown up.â€? (She has two sons, ages 24 and 22.) A late bloomer: Windus did not return to cycling until about 10 years ago. She participated in rides with the Portland Wheelman Touring Club and, as her fitness improved, fellow club members encouraged her to try racing. “So, I got a good race bike and started going out,â€? she recalls. “I was racing in the

Debra Windus, 57, of Madras, was named the Best All-Around Rider for the masters women 50-and-older division in 2008. masters women 50-plus (age) category and of course there are so few of us, so I was winning gold, silver and bronze medals and that was so encouraging.� In 2008, Windus expanded her cycling repertoire and attempted to compete in every discipline the Oregon Bicycle Racing Association offered, including cyclocross, time trial, track and mountain bike racing. Based on her results, she was named the Best All-Around Rider for the masters women 50-
and-older division that year. “I’m probably best at the time trial,� she notes. “But I loved the track. I liked it all, really.� Since renewing her interest in cycling, Windus has twice returned to France to ride her bike. In 2009, she completed a two-week tour of the Dordogne region. And this past fall, she participated in a 10-day cycling tour of Provence. Discovering Central Oregon: Windus moved to Madras from Portland last September with her husband, Leo Tsou, who had accepted a teaching position at Madras High School. Relocating to Central Oregon has proven difficult for Windus from an employment perspective, but the time off has afforded her plenty of opportunities to explore the area by bicycle. “The riding here that I’ve done, especially around the Madras and Culver area, has been wonderful,� she says. “The roads are in good shape, and it’s easier to get out because there are drier days and very little traffic. It’s so nice not to have to worry about busy downtown streets before you’re able to get out into the country. It’s fairly flat around Madras and the views are really nice.� With uncertainty about finding and settling into a new job, Windus says she does not expect to race much in 2011. She does, however, plan to take part in a few local events in Central Oregon, including weeknight time trials this summer. Why she rides: “Cycling has always represented freedom to me,� she says. “When I get on the bike, all my cares go away — it’s almost like being a bird in flight, just out there on the road totally free. And what’s wonderful about touring is that there is always something new ahead. There’s always another adventure down the road, a place I haven’t been.� —Heather Clark
