Bill would base teacher ratings on performance Records

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

SALEM — State lawmakers could follow local school districts’ lead and change the way teachers are evaluated, looking at classroom performance instead of the number of years spent in the classroom or degrees acquired.

Currently, the nearly 200

school districts in the state go through different teacher evaluation processes. A Senate bill heard in committee Thursday would create a statewide standard of teacher efficiency. Each school district would be responsible for evaluating teachers based on that criteria.

One longtime teacher who testified against the bill, SB 290,

BUDGET IMPASSE

said he’s worried it will encourage teachers to focus on test scores and not results. But proponents said teacher evaluations are too often a checklist and rewards are doled out based on longevity instead of proficiency.

“If we want to help teachers grow and improve, we need to give specific, concrete feedback that identifies proficiency in

different domains of practice,” said Dan Jamison, vice president of Chalkboard Project, a nonprofit organization that focuses on K-12 education issues.

For example, Jamison said, one domain would be “planning and preparation” and within that domain would be different criteria to help guide evaluators.

ATLANTA — More than half the states are not complying with a post-Virginia Tech law that requires them to share the names of mentally ill people with the national background-check system to prevent them from buying guns, an Associated Press review has found.

The deadline for complying with the 3-year-old law was last month. But nine states haven’t supplied any names to the database. Seventeen others, including Oregon, have sent in fewer than 25, meaning gun dealers around the U.S. could be running names of would-be buyers against a woefully incomplete list.

Remote villagers in Ecuador may hold secret to longevity

By Nicholas Wade New York Times News Service

People living in remote villages in Ecuador have a mutation that some biologists say may throw light on human longevity and ways to increase it.

The villagers are very small, generally less than 3½ feet tall, and have a rare condition known as Laron syndrome or Laron-type dwarfism. They are also almost completely free of two age-related diseases, cancer and diabetes.

A group of 99 villagers with Laron syndrome has been studied for 24 years by Dr. Jaime Guevara-Aguirre, an Ecuadorean physician and diabetes specialist. As Guevara-Aguirre accumulated health data on his patients, he noticed a remarkable pattern: People who have the Laron mutation almost never got cancer. And they never developed diabetes, even though many were obese, which often brings on the condition.

Valter Longo, a researcher at the University of Southern California, saw the patients as providing an opportunity to explore genetic mutations that researchers had found could make laboratory animals live much longer than usual.

The Laron patients have a mutation in the gene that makes the receptor for growth hormone.

The receptor is a protein embedded in the membrane of cells. Its outside region is recognized by growth hormone circulating through the body; the inside region sends signals through the cell when growth hormone triggers the receptor.

The Laron patients’ mutation means their growth hormone receptor lacks certain units of its exterior region, so it cannot react to growth hormone, and does not as a result produce another insulin-like hormone involved in growth.

This is where the physiology of the Laron patients links up with the studies researchers have been pursuing with animals. Longo said he believed that having very low levels of the insulinlike hormone was the critical feature of the Laron patients’ freedom from age-related diseases.

The two physicians reported their findings on Wednesday in Science Translational Medicine.

‘Hummingbird’ drone built for spy missions

By W.J. Hennigan Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — A pocket-sized drone dubbed the Nano Hummingbird for the way it flaps its tiny robotic wings has been developed for the Pentagon as a mini-spy plane capable of maneuvering on the battlefield and in urban areas.

The battery-powered drone was built

by AeroVironment Inc. for the Pentagon’s research arm as part of a series of experiments in nanotechnology. The little flying machine is built to look like a bird for potential use in spy missions.

The Hummingbird is the result of a fiveyear effort, announced Thursday by the company and the Pentagon’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency.

Equipped with a camera, the drone can fly at speeds of up to 11 mph, AeroVironment said. It can hover and fly sideways, backward and forward, as well as go clockwise and counterclockwise, by remote control for about eight minutes.

The quick flight meets the goals set forth by the government to build a flying “hummingbird-like” aircraft. It also demonstrates the promise of fielding mini-spy planes. Industry insiders see the technology eventually being capable of flying through open windows or sitting on power lines, capturing audio and video while enemies would be none the wiser.

The Hummingbird would be a major departure from existing drones that closely resemble traditional aircraft. The next step is likely to be further refinement of the technology, officials said, before decisions are made about whether the drones would be mass-produced and deployed.

“The miniaturization of drones is where it really gets interesting,” said defense ex-

pert Peter Singer, author of “Wired for War,” a book about robotic warfare. “You can use these things anywhere, put them anyplace, and the target will never even know they’re being watched.”

The success of the program “paves the way for a new generation of aircraft with the agility and appearance of small birds,” Todd Hylton, Hummingbird program manager for the Pentagon’s research arm, said in a statement.

The Pentagon has awarded about $4 million to AeroVironment since 2006 to develop the technology and the drone itself.

Matt Keennon, the project manager, said it was a technical challenge to create the mini-machine from scratch because it pushes the limitations of aerodynamics.

Less than two years ago, an earlier version of the drone could fly for 20 seconds.

Keennon said the current eight minutes of flight are likely to be extended as experiments continue.

“This is a new form of man-made flight,” Keennon said. It is about “biomimicry,” or building a machine that is inspired by nature, he said.

The Pentagon issued seven specific milestones for the Hummingbird, including the ability to hover in a 5-mph wind gust and the ability to fly from outdoors to indoors and back outdoors through a normal-size doorway.

For now, the Hummingbird is just a prototype, Keennon said. But 10 years from now, he sees the technology carrying out detailed reconnaissance missions.

But it’s not likely to be a “hummingbird,” considering that that’s a rare bird in, say, New York City.

“I’m not a bird expert, but a sparrow seems to be better,” Keennon said.

LOS ANGELES — It’s hard to imagine some of Vincent van Gogh’s signature works without the vibrant strokes of yellow that brightened the sky in “Starry Night” and drenched his sunflowers in color. But the yellow hues in some of his paintings have mysteriously turned to brown, and a team of European scientists has figured out why.

Using X-rays, they found a chemical reaction to blame — one never before seen in paint. Van Gogh’s decision to use a lighter shade of yellow paint mixed with white is responsible for the darkening, according to a study published online Monday in the journal Analytical Chemistry.

The root of the problem is the lead-chromate paint he used, called chrome yellow.

It was part of a generation of paints that were far brighter and more vibrant than previous shades.

To solve the mystery, the researchers obtained three tubes of yellow paint from the Royal Museum of Fine Arts of Antwerp that were manufactured around the time Van Gogh was working. They spread samples of the still-bright paint onto glass slides and bombarded them with ultraviolet radiation for three weeks to mimic the process of aging.

Only one of the samples turned brown, and it did so in dramatic fashion, said Koen Janssens, an analytical chemist at Antwerp University in Belgium who co-authored the study. The brown layer was about a micron thick.

“It’s amazing that the change was so quick and so profound,” he said.

To his frustration, though, the electron microscopy, infrared microscopy and other tests were of no help in understanding the reason for the brown layer.

Finally, they hit the paint with a high-intensity X-ray at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility. They found that the colorfast samples were made of chromium in its pure, crystalline form.

Sulfates may have helped reduce the chromium’s oxidation state from chromium-6 to chromium-3, taking on an increasingly greenish hue that contributed to the darkening.

Micrograms gone missing?

By Sarah Lyall New York Times News Service

SEVRES, France — No one knows exactly why the international prototype of the kilogram, as pampered a hunk of platinum and iridium as ever existed, appears to weigh less than it did when it was manufactured in the late 19th century.

“Your guess is as good as mine,” said Terry Quinn, emeritus director of the International Bureau of Weights and Measures in this town on the fringes of Paris.

It is here that the kilogram — the universal standard against which all other kilograms are measured — resides in controlled conditions set out in 1889, in an underground vault that can be opened only with three different keys possessed by three different people.

The change, discovered when the prototype was compared with its official copies, amounts only to some 50 micrograms, equal to the mass of a smallish grain of sand. But it shows that the prototype has fallen down on its primary job, to be a beacon of stability in a world of uncertainty.

And it means, scientists say, that it is time to find a new way to calculate the kilogram, which currently enjoys a delightfully frustrating definition: “a unit of mass equal to the mass of the international prototype of the kilogram.”

Popular rage met with violence

Egypt disappearances, torture stoke concerns about military

By Liam Stack

New York Times News Service Thousands of Libyan protesters defied threats of violence and arrest in several cities Thursday, mounting one of the sharpest challenges to Col. Moammar Gadhafi’s 40-year rule in a “day of rage” modeled on the uprisings coursing through neighboring countries.

Despite Libya’s heavy hand in controlling security and stifling dissent, protests were reported in the capital, Tripoli; Benghazi, the country’s second-largest city; and at least one other city.

The accounts were muted by Libya’s strict media controls, but human rights groups said at least four people had been killed in clashes involving marchers, pro-government demonstrators and security forces. Other unconfirmed reports put the death toll as high as 20 and said dozens more had been wounded.

A fog of smoke, tear gas and fresh unease descended over cities throughout the region, with demonstrations and rolling street battles lurching in violent new directions as governments fought to blunt their momentum and reassert control of the streets. States imposed curfews and ordered people to stay home, and those who defied the orders risked gunfire or beatings at the hands of security forces, private guards or pro-government crowds.

But across the Middle East, where brutal social contracts have left millions uneducated, impoverished and alienated, battle lines between people and their governments appeared to harden, foreshadowing more confrontations in the days ahead.

Iraqi riot police officers prevent anti-government protesters from entering the Basra provincial headquarters during a demonstration in Basra, Iraq’s second-largest city, on Thursday. enth day of demonstrations demanding the removal of President Ali Abdullah Saleh. Protesters chanted “There is no state!” and lobbed rocks back and forth with pro-government marchers.

In Iran, a leading opposition figure, Mir Hussein Moussavi, was reported missing, raising fears that he had been detained in connection with this week’s anti-government rallies. The marches, the largest since the 2009 disputed elections, were put down by Iranian security and paramilitary forces. The government called for its supporters to rally Friday; the opposition called for another march Sunday.

In Algeria, where a major protest has been called for Saturday, state television denounced “foreign interference,” while a prominent political leader, Abdelhamid Mehri, accused the government of not “responding to the hunger for integrity, liberty, democracy and social justice.”

Even in Tunisia, where protests successfully ousted President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali last month, small groups of protest-

ers continued to gather outside various government ministries in the capital, Tunis, demanding the resignation of the country’s caretaker government and the release of family members from prisons.

In Egypt, where President Hosni Mubarak stepped down last week, Suez Canal workers in three major cities joined strikes, deepening the economic strains of the widespread labor unrest.

March planned in Iraq And in Iraq, protest leaders said they would go ahead with plans for a Saturday march in Baghdad, despite a second day of violence marring demonstrations elsewhere in the country.

“Are we expecting violence?” said Kamal Jabar, an Iraqi organizer. “Yes, we’re expecting violence. Are we going out? Yes, we’re going out.”

The Libya protests, which started earlier in the week, grew larger and bloodier as the government unleashed thousands of its supporters in countermarches.

Mohammad Ali Abdellah, the deputy leader of an exiled opposition group, the National Front for the Salvation of Libya, said in a telephone interview from London that roads leading to Green Square in central Tripoli had been closed off and that people living nearby had been warned in text messages from the authorities not to join any protests.

In Al Beyda, he said, hospital authorities had appealed for international help to cope with an influx of around 30 or 40 people with gunshot wounds after security forces opened fire on protests that erupted Wednesday night and continued into early Thursday.

The Associated Press quoted opposition websites as saying that security forces had fired on demonstrators, killing several, and that the government was refusing to provide medical supplies needed to treat protesters.

The unrest rippling through Iraq spread on Thursday to the more stable Kurdistan region, where security guards in Sulaimaniya fired on a group of rockthrowing protesters who had been trying to take over the offices of a local political leader. At least one person was killed.

A day ago, security forces in the eastern city of Kut killed three rock-throwing protesters who had been among hundreds rallying to call for the provincial governor to step down. The shootings prompted the crowd to set fire to the governor’s home and offices.

On Thursday, a spokesman for the provincial government said Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki had ordered the governor to resign. In a news conference, al-Maliki took a slightly softer stance toward the demonstrations than his counterparts elsewhere in the Middle East, saying that he was happy Iraqis were exercising their rights to demonstrate.

CAIRO — Ramadan Aboul Hassan left his house one night about three weeks ago to join a neighborhood watch group with two friends and did not return. The next time their relatives saw the three men, they were emerging Wednesday night from a maximum security prison, 400 miles from home, run by Egypt’s military.

Some family members said they bore signs of torture, although others denied it.

While many here have cheered the military for taking over after last week’s ouster of President Hosni Mubarak and for pledging to oversee a transition to democracy, human rights groups say that in the past three weeks the military has also played a documented role in dozens of disappearances and at least 12 cases of torture — trademark practices of the Mubarak government’s notorious security police that most here hoped would end with his exit.

Some, like Aboul Hassan and his two friends, were not released until several days after the revolution removed Mubarak.

Now human rights groups say the military’s continuing role in such abuses raises new questions about its ability to midwife Egyptian democracy.

“The military is detaining people incommunicado, which is illegal, and so it is effectively disappearing people,” said Heba Morayef of Human Rights Watch, which has documented four cases that it describes as involving torture. Amnesty International has documented three such cases, and the Front for the Defense of Egyptian Protesters has documented five.

Human Rights Watch has also documented one case in which the military transferred a prisoner to the country’s feared State Security forces, where it says he was tortured.

Morayef said the cases of detention and torture did not appear to be “systematic,” but added, “It is enough to set off alarm bells and call for an investigation into abuses by the military police.”

Most victims were arrested by the military, she says, although two were detained by neighborhood watch groups and then handed over to soldiers. The interrogations accompanying abuse all revolved around victims’ suspected participation in the antigovernment protests that toppled the Mubarak government.

Britain halts Doctors, nurses charged forest sell-off in health care fraud sweep after protests

By Richard A. Serrano

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

By Janet Stobart Los Angeles Times

LONDON — Faced with an outspoken public determined to protect Britain’s woodlands, government officials struggling to overcome a devastating budget deficit on Thursday canceled plans to sell hundreds of thousands of acres of forests to raise money.

Environment Secretary Caroline Spelman told parliament the decision to change course came after a public outcry against privatization that included environmentalists, politicians, entertainers, religious leaders and many others.

Hundreds of thousands of people signed an online petition against plans to sell woodlands and forests and thousands held rallies in local forests or wrote to their political representatives.

“I am sorry. We got this one wrong,” Spelman told members of the House of Commons. “If there is one clear message from this experience, it is that people cherish their forests and woodlands and the benefits that they bring.”

WASHINGTON — The federal government’s Medicare Fraud Task Force brought criminal charges Thursday against doctors, nurses and health care company executives — in all, 111 people in nine cities — in what was billed as the nation’s “largest-ever federal health care fraud takedown.”

The defendants, including five in Los Angeles and 11 in Chicago, allegedly cheated the government out of more than $225 million in false billing schemes that included fraudulent claims, kick-

back operations, money laundering and identity theft.

The sweep of arrests was so massive that it took more than 700 federal agents from the FBI and the Department of Health and Human Services to round up the suspects, plus serve an additional 16 search warrants around the country in connection with ongoing strike force investigations.

“Our message is clear,” said Assistant Attorney General Lanny A. Breuer of the Department of Justice’s Criminal Division.

“We are determined to put Medicare fraudsters out of business.”

Study: Working moms have sicker kids

By John Murawski McClatchy-Tribune News Service

RALEIGH, N.C. — Stay-athome moms may have been right all along when their maternal instincts told them they’re best equipped to care for their children.

A new study from North Carolina State University concludes that children of mothers who work outside the home have a significantly higher risk of health problems, accidents and injuries.

The study found that kids of working moms have a 200 per-

cent increase in the risk of experiencing overnight hospitalizations, asthma episodes and injuries or poisonings.

Parenting is an intensely emotional subject that leads to feelings of guilt, inadequacy and — just as often — a sense of superiority among parents, particularly among moms who handle the bulk of child-rearing duties.

The so-called mommy wars have heated up in recent years as the numbers of women with children under age 18 who are in the work force has risen to more than 75 percent.

BUDGET COLLISION COURSE

Impasse over spending measure raises risk of federal shutdown

By David M. Herszenhorn New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — The House speaker, John Boehner of Ohio, said Thursday that Republicans would not agree to a short-term extension of the spending measure now financing the federal government without additional cuts, sharply raising the stakes in a war of wills with Democrats that officials say could lead to a government shutdown early next month.

The stopgap measure, which expires on March 4, has held spending generally to 2010 levels.

House Republicans are close to approving a spending bill for the balance of the fiscal year that includes the largest spending cuts in modern history — a swift, huge slash of more than $60 billion from domestic programs and foreign aid that they say would fulfill their campaign promise to shrink government outlays.

The bill, which covers spend-

Congress Continued from A1 That’s not necessarily an easy thing to do: Nearly half of them are millionaires.

But so far, at least seven payrelated bills have been introduced in the new Congress, and at least 55 members are pushing the legislation.

“At a time when so many American families are struggling, the last thing Congress should be doing is giving ourselves raises — we need to continue our focus on putting workers back on the job,” said Murray, who’s voted for congressional pay freezes in the past.

Congress decided to make pay raises automatic in 1989, giving legislators a way to avoid tough votes that could hurt them when running for re-election. Since then, congressional salaries have nearly doubled, though Congress blocked raises in 2010 and 2011.

The bills to repeal automatic pay raises are the most popular this year, attracting 29 co-sponsors.

They’re sponsored by Democratic Sen. Claire McCaskill of Missouri, Republican Sen. David Vitter of Louisiana, Democratic Rep. Jim Matheson of Utah and Republican Rep. Todd Platts of Pennsylvania.

“In this economy, Americans across the country are out of work, and those who are working are certainly not receiving annual raises,” McCaskill said when she introduced the bill late last month. “There’s no reason Congress should be getting a pay raise each year.”

Matheson called the automatic raises a “stealth system (that) allows us to get a salary increase without lifting a finger.”

Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa, another co-sponsor, said that if members of Congress think they deserve a raise, “they should have the guts to vote publicly for it.”

Coffman said his bill to reduce congressional pay by 10 percent would save the federal government more than $5.5 billion. The bill to reduce pay by 5 percent was introduced by Democratic Rep. Gabrielle Giffords of Arizona only two days before she was shot in Tucson last month.

Rigell isn’t waiting for Congress to act. Last week, he wrote a letter to House officials asking not to receive benefits given to all members, including health insurance, dental and vision insurance, long-term care insurance, life insurance and retirement benefits.

Rigell was told that he couldn’t unilaterally reduce his salary. So he set up a plan that will allow him to return 15 percent of his salary to the U.S. Treasury via payroll deduction.

sisting on steep cuts without being willing to compromise.

“It is unproductive to resort to threats of a shutdown with any negotiations,” the Senate majority leader, Harry Reid of Nevada, said in a statement on Thursday.

If Reid puts forward a temporary extension of the stopgap measure, Senate Republicans would have to make a choice between blocking the bill with a filibuster or letting it pass and leaving their counterparts in the House to decide on shutting the government. Republicans were blamed for such a shutdown in 1995 during a standoff with the Clinton administration.

After working through Wednesday night and into the predawn hours on Thursday, lawmakers returned to the House floor and clashed fiercely over proposed amendments to the spending measure.

A final vote was not expected

until today, but with the new Republican majority resolute in executing big cuts, approval was a foregone conclusion. Republicans now control the House 241 to 193, with one vacancy.

Because the rules of debate required that any restorations in spending be offset with corresponding cuts elsewhere, the total reductions were certain to exceed the roughly $60 billion originally included in the spending measure by the House Appropriations Committee.

While the final tally remained to be counted, there was no doubt that House Republicans would succeed in approving their bill after the sort of raucous, freewheeling debate that has been a rarity in the House in recent years. Rank-and-file lawmakers put forward hundreds of amendments, and the outcome of some votes went against the wishes of Republican leaders.

Bipartisan ‘Gang of Six’ in Senate working to tackle deficit reduction

ing through Sept. 30, seemed likely to be approved today.

Democrats say such drastic cuts would harm the fragile economic recovery. The White House has already threatened to veto it, and Senate Democrats have voiced strong objections. Senate Democrats are expected to put forward a temporary extension of the stopgap measure that would prevent a government shutdown and allow continued negotiations.

But at a news conference Thursday, Boehner said Republicans would not accept a temporary extension without additional reductions. “When we say we’re going to cut spending,” Boehner said, “Read my lips: we’re going to cut spending.”

Boehner accused Democrats of seeking to shut the government to avoid making cuts.

Democrats have been warning for weeks that Republicans were willing to risk a shutdown by in-

WASHINGTON — With President Barack Obama calling for bipartisan talks to tackle the nation’s budget problems, a group of influential senators from both parties is developing a framework that calls for higher taxes and caps on all categories of government spending.

The plan is still under development, but people with knowledge of the talks said the senators hope to unveil it soon after the weeklong President’s Day recess so they can begin assessing the breadth of political support.

The group, known informally as the “Gang of Six,” began meeting soon after Obama’s fiscal commission recommended an ambitious plan for deficit reduction last year. Four sitting senators supported the commission report — Budget Committee Chairman Kent Conrad, D-N.D., Majority Whip Dick Durbin, D-Ill., Tom Coburn, R-Okla., and Mike Crapo, R-Idaho. The four joined forces with Sens.

Mark Warner, D-Va., and Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., who had been working to build support among moderates for a bold plan to rein in the soaring national debt.

That group hopes to advance the commission’s recommendations, which would reduce deficits by $4 trillion over the next decade. Doing so would require lawmakers to embrace some politically perilous policies, however,

including raising the retirement age, charging wealthy seniors more for Medicare and closing cherished but expensive tax breaks that riddle the tax code.

Taking the commission’s report as its template, the group is drafting legislation that would direct congressional committees to find a way to put it into effect. On taxes, for example, the legislation would direct tax-writing committees in the House and Senate to develop a tax overhaul that raises hundreds of billions of dollars in additional revenue while lowering the top tax rate, which stands at 35 percent.

The legislation would set a 2013 deadline for action. If Congress failed to approve a tax overhaul that met annual targets for new revenue by that time, a new tax regime would automatically go into effect, raising taxes across the board by reducing the value of various tax breaks, such as the deduction for home mortgage interest and the tax-free treatment of employer-paid health care.

Still to be resolved: whether the measure would explicitly set the new top tax rate at 29 percent, as the commission proposed.

Republicans are arguing for the mandate, and for a provision that would automatically lower the top tax rate to 29 percent if Congress failed to act.

On Social Security, the group is also considering standards that would be implemented through committee. Failure to act would force a vote in Congress on the commission’s plan to raise the retirement age to 69 and reduce payments to wealthier retirees.

However, the goals for changes to

House budget bill’s deep cuts in humanitarian aid criticized

By Mary Beth Sheridan The Washington Post

U.S. officials and nonprofit groups are expressing alarm about the deep reductions in humanitarian assistance in the House budget bill racing through Congress, warning that it could leave millions of poor people hungry and put refugees in jeopardy in places such as Iraq and Pakistan.

The bill, which would mandate cuts in the fiscal 2011 discretionary budget, was drawn up by House Republicans and represents about a 6 percent cut in funding overall from 2010 federal budget levels. But international food aid programs would be reduced by up to 50 percent.

The State Department’s funding for refugees would shrink by more than 40 percent.

“It represents an American policy retreat of historic proportions, with unprecedented and really devastating effects on our leadership in saving lives and preventing conflict,” said Eric Schwartz, the assistant secretary of state in charge of refugees and migration.

The Democratic-dominated Senate is likely to pass a lessstringent version of the legislation, which will have to be reconciled with the House version. President Barack Obama

has threatened to veto the House bill if it reaches his desk.

Rep. Kay Granger, R-Texas, head of the House subcommittee handling foreign aid, acknowledged that the cuts are deep. But she said that, to preserve funding considered critical to national security — such as military assistance for Israel and Egypt — other aspects of foreign assistance must be reduced.

“This financial crisis in this country, that’s what caused us to say we have to quit spending at that level,” she said.

The House bill would slash one of the main U.S. foreign food aid programs, known as Food for Peace, by 40 percent from 2010 levels. That would reduce or eliminate food for about 15 million people in places such as Ethiopia, Haiti and Sudan, U.S. officials say.

The cuts would come at a time when millions of people are sinking into poverty because of rising food prices globally, according to the World Bank.

The budget for another initiative, the McGovern-Dole Food for Education Program, which provides meals to about 4.5 million schoolchildren in poor countries, would be halved.

“A lot of these kids would not be in school if there was no meal,” said Rick Leach, president of the World Food Program USA.

Social Security are less clear, and senior Senate Democrats said they expect the group to avoid the most unpalatable of the commission’s recommendations.

The group also would set explicit annual caps on discretionary and mandatory spending, forcing lawmakers to make hard choices about where to spend scarce tax dollars. If Congress failed to meet them, the caps would be enforced by sequestration, a painful process that requires the White House budget office to cut across the board until the targets are met.

The group has yet to decide whether its plan will be offered as a companion to a measure to raise the legal limit on government borrowing, a must-pass measure that will face significant political opposition unless it is coupled with a strategy to restrain borrowing.

Teachers Continued from A1 Among the criteria: Has the teacher done the necessary planning and preparation?

Does the teacher understand the concepts? Has the teacher prepared appropriate materials for each level of student?

Bend-La Pine Superintendent Ron Wilkinson supports the bill. He said school achievement needs to be measured by multiple standards, and test scores would not be the sole indicator if a teacher were doing well.

Under the proposed bill, the Teachers Standards and Practice Commission would create the definition of teacher efficiency. Local districts would work within the definition but be allowed some room to mold it to their district. Wilkinson said adopting a statewide model would help him locally.

“We have standards but there is a lot of room for improvement,” he said.

High Desert Middle School math teacher Karen Stiner said the evaluations have helped her.

“It switches the focus to how my students are doing,” she said.

Jamison, with the Chalkboard project, said evaluators must also meet standards.

Steve Buel, of Portland, who has taught for 43 years, said he thinks passage of the bill would be destructive. Buel is worried if teachers’ evaluations are linked to increase in pay, they could become focused on test scores. He said this would be particularly true in high-poverty areas where test scores are lower. In schools in Lake Oswego, he said, teachers wouldn’t have to worry as much about test scores and their students would do fine.

“Instead of giving kids a good, solid education, (this) would give them a good testing program,” he said.

Investigators also interviewed a woman with whom Prince was romantically involved off and on between February and December 2010. Prince had met the woman when he was on duty while she was dealing with a suspected stalker five years earlier, and Prince arrived at her home off duty early last year to reintroduce himself.

Prince was still married during their time together, but had told the woman he was in the middle of his divorce.

The woman told investigators she was unfamiliar with any gun sales by Prince, but he did give her a few boxes of ammunition and a handgun, neither of which are currently believed to have been taken from the department’s armory.

Shortly after Christmas, the woman broke it off with Prince for the last time. She told investigators she was troubled by his habit of giving her large gifts, including around $10,000 in cash and a 50- to 60-inch television she had received for Christmas. As they were separating, Prince returned some rings he had taken from her without permission, the woman said. He told her he was planning to make her some jewelry, she told investigators, but did not explain why he needed two rings to determine her ring size.

Prince is due in court March 28 to enter a plea on the charges against him.

computers and paper records.

In an interview with investigators, Officer Ryan Fraker of the Redmond Police Department described the armory as being in disarray when he took over management from Prince.

As Fraker began organizing the armory, he began finding invoices for equipment purchased

by Prince, but not in storage in the armory.

Fraker told investigators ammunition had always been in short supply during Prince’s tenure as manager of the armory, forcing officers to use converters allowing them to use cheaper .22 caliber rounds during practice at the range, and often dry-firing their weapons. He said it appeared Prince had been intercepting shipments of ammunition and selling on consignment through a local gun dealer, then buying it back to provide limited supplies of ammunition to the department’s officers.

Another Redmond officer, Capt. Brian McNaughton, told investigators the department spent about $20,000 on ammunition annually at Prince’s direction, but never had enough for training and on-duty use.

McNaughton described a visit to the home built by Prince and his wife, Shelley Prince — herself a Redmond officer — when it was still under construction, when he was shown multiple hidden rooms that had been designed to house safes where Prince planned to store a collection of firearms McNaughton said may number into the hundreds.

piece of legislation that’s tearing this state apart,” Sen. Jon Erpenbach, one of the missing Democrats, said by telephone. (He refused to say where he was.)

Many among the protest group said they had no plans to leave, that they would wait, as long as it took, to end the proposal, which was introduced only a week ago

by Scott Walker, the new Republican governor here.

For his part, Walker, who appeared before reporters from his office even as chants from beyond security barriers echoed into the room, had no apologies for his plans. He said he had no intention of changing the bill.

And he chastised the Democratic senators for leaving.

Continued from A1 He is under house arrest after posting $20,000 bail, and faces 18 counts each of first-degree theft and first-degree official misconduct, and one count of first-degree forgery.

Prince was put on paid administrative leave Dec. 30, and resigned from his position on Tuesday.

Interviews by Oregon State Police detectives investigating the case reveal that Prince sold an AR-15 rifle and assorted parts to Officer Dexter Dickson, a 9mm pistol to reserve officer Lee Thost, and parts and a rifle scope to Tarbet. Following an audit conducted after Prince was removed from his duties as manager of the armory in July 2010, it was determined the serial numbers on the purchased items matched the numbers on items that had gone missing at the armory. The armory is where department arms are stored.

None of those officers who purchased items from Prince is under investigation.

A search warrant request put together by Det. Roberto Robles of the OSP identified 28 pistols, rifles or shotguns plus additional equipment officers were looking for when they served search warrants at Prince’s Redmond home, a storage unit in Redmond, and a Coos Bay home owned by Prince’s father. Officers seized dozens of guns, gun parts and boxes of ammunition, as well as

battleground over public workers, unions and budget crises.

The reason for the disappearance was simple: Democrats, along with the thousands of workers and protesters, vigorously oppose the bill, which would weaken unions by limiting collective bargaining for state employees and many local employees, including teachers, to base wages, and would require workers to pay more for pensions and health care. Without enough votes to actually stop the bill’s passage, Democratic senators apparently concluded that leaving the building would stop the vote from taking place.

DRIVE A LITTLE, SAVE A LOT!

MADISON, Wis. — The fury among thousands of workers, students and union supporters rose to a boil on Thursday as state lawmakers prepared to vote on landmark legislation that would slash collective bargaining rights for public workers. Protesters blocked a door to Senate chambers. They sat down, body against body, filling a corridor, and chanted “freedom, democracy, unions!” in the stately gallery as the senators convened.

Then the surprising drama in Madison this week added a new twist: The Democrats disappeared.

That left Republicans, who control the Capitol and had expected to push through the bill, in limbo.

Although Republicans control the state Senate by 19 to 14, 20 senators — at least a single Democrat — must be in the room to call a vote on such fiscal matters.

“It’s disgraceful that people who are paid to be here have decided to skip town,” Michael Ellis, the Senate president, said shortly after the roll was called.

Said another Republican leader, Sen. Scott Fitzgerald.

And so, as the Republicans fumed and waited, and the protesters (who were buoyed by the vanishing act) went right on protesting, a desperate search began for the missing senators — one more topsy-turvy chapter in a saga that has, in a single week, turned Wisconsin into a national

They can partake in births and birthdays in real time. They can check sports scores, take online college courses and even manage

Guns Continued from A1 Officials blame privacy laws, antiquated record-keeping and a severe lack of funding for the gap the AP found through public records requests.

Eleven states have provided more than 1,000 records apiece to the federal database, yet guncontrol groups have estimated more than 1 million files are missing nationwide.

“If the mental health records are not current from our sister states, the quality of our background check is going to be compromised,” said Sean Byrne, acting commissioner of the Division of Criminal Justice Services in New York, a state that has submitted more than 100,000 records.

Congress has doled out only a fraction of the $1.3 billion it promised between 2009 and 2013 to help states and courts cover the costs of the 2008 law.

For some states, the amount of federal grant money they could be penalized for not complying with is less than what it would cost them to get their recordssharing systems up to speed.

The Jan. 8 shooting rampage in Tucson, Ariz., that killed six people and left Rep. Gabrielle Giffords grievously wounded has put more emphasis on the struggle to disarm the mentally ill, even though the man arrested in the attack wouldn’t have been on the no-purchase list. Jared Loughner was considered so mentally unstable that he was kicked out of community college. Yet, because he was never deemed mentally ill by a judge or committed to an institution, he was able to legally buy the gun police said he used.

Since 1968, federal law has banned certain mentally ill people from buying guns, including those who have been deemed a danger to themselves or others, involuntarily committed or judged not guilty by reason of insanity or incompetent to stand trial. The nationwide background-check system — which is also used to prevent convicted felons from buying guns — was established under the 1993 Brady Bill.

A few state agencies shared mental health records voluntarily for years, but the Virginia Tech massacre in 2007 spurred passage of legislation that required states to submit the records or risk losing up to 5 percent of the federal funding they receive to fight crime.

In the Virginia Tech rampage, student Seung-Hui Cho shot 32 people to death and committed suicide. He was able to buy two guns, even though he had been ruled a danger to himself during a court hearing in 2005 and was ordered to undergo outpatient mental health treatment.

Federal officials said that Cho should have been barred from buying weapons but that the records were never forwarded to the background-check system. Virginia officials, however, said state law required only the names of those committed to mental hospitals. The loophole has since been closed by state law, and people in Virginia who undergo outpatient treatment are now entered into the database.

California has shared records of more than 250,000 people, Virginia more than 100,000, according to records AP obtained in a Freedom of Information Act request in late 2010.

The states that have failed to submit any mental health records are: Alaska, Delaware, Idaho, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Mexico, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and South Dakota.

Seventeen states submitted very few records: Hawaii, Illinois, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maine, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Oregon, South Carolina, Vermont, Wisconsin and Wyoming.

Any penalties for failing to comply with the 2008 law are probably years away — they don’t become mandatory until 2018, and federal authorities can forgive states in the meantime.

If the penalties are imposed, some states could lose hundreds of thousands of dollars or more.

But in several states, sharing the records could require millions of dollars in upgrades.

businesses and stock portfolios.

But there is a drawback: They can no longer tune out problems like faulty dishwashers and unpaid electric bills, wayward children and failing relationships, as they once could.

The Pentagon, which for years resisted allowing unfettered Internet access on military computers because of cybersecurity concerns, has now embraced the revolution, saying instant communication is a huge morale boost for troops and their fami-

C OV ER S T OR I ES lies. But military officials quietly acknowledge a downside to the connectivity.

Some commanders worry that troops are playing with iPhones and BlackBerrys (as well as Game Boys and MP3 players) when they should be working, though such devices are strictly forbidden on foot patrols.

More common are concerns that the problems of home are seeping inexorably into frontline life, creating distractions for people who should be focusing

on staying safe.

To see the upside of a well-connected force, one need look no further than the Morale, Welfare and Recreation building, fondly known as the MWR, at Forward Operating Base Kunduz, home to the 1st Battalion, 87th Infantry for the past year.

In more than 40 plywood cubicles that are available all day, soldiers sit in front of computer terminals or talk on telephones, all of them connected to home.

There is virtually no privacy, so

the arguments over money and children, the love talk and baby talk are clearly audible in one cacophonous symphony of chat.

Pfc. Briana Smith, 23, medic and bubbly single mother, is regularly in the MWR checking up on her 2-year-old son, Daniel, who is living with her parents in Tampa. She tries to call home daily and routinely logs on to Facebook to check in with family and friends. And at least once a week, she uses video conferencing on Skype to visit with Daniel.

The close communication thrills her, but can leave a pang, too. “I can’t be involved in the everyday things,” she said. “I only get to see the little tidbits of his life. It’s good to see, but it’s a little heartbreaking at times.”

The Internet connections and phones are not all free. Though troops do not pay to use computers in the MWR, they do pay for the phone calls. And those soldiers who bring their own cell phones pay fees that typically start at $70.

“(The mountain has) typical Utah-style powder conditions, so it’s perfect.

You literally just fly.”

— Andy Goggins, spokesman, Mt. Bachelor Peter Butsch, of Bend, enjoys deep fresh powder while riding at Mt. Bachelor on Wednesday. As of Wednesday, the 48-hour snow total at the mountain was 35 inches, the best out of all North American resorts.

The Bend City Council did not move Wednesday to extend a period of consideration over zoning concerns at the Bend Indoor Markets.

As a result, the city plans to begin the code-enforcement process for the market, City Manager Eric King said Thursday.

Market owner Steve White said Thursday that the market would not open this weekend because he wants to avoid being fined.

City officials contend the market is a retail business in a light industrial zone, which does not permit retail. White contends the market can be considered industrial because some manufacturing occurs there.

On Wednesday, the council said city staff should look at other options for the market, such as creating a new zone, and, in the meantime, address the perceived code violation.

White said he would not open the market again unless the City Council develops a quick solution to the issue.

James Goff, the city’s code enforcement officer, said he is waiting for direction on what to do in response to the City Council’s discussion on the matter.

The interest rate on a 30year fixed-rate mortgage averaged 5 percent, with an average 0.7 point for the week ending Thursday, down from last week, when it averaged 5.05 percent, Freddie Mac said in reporting results of its weekly mortgage survey. Last year at this time, the 30-year rate averaged 4.93 percent.

The 15-year fixed-rate mortgage this week averaged 4.27 percent, with an average 0.7 point, down from last week, when it averaged 4.29 percent. A year ago at this time, the 15-year rate averaged 4.33 percent.

“Fixed mortgage rates eased slightly this week and continue to be very affordable,” Frank Nothaft, vice president and chief economist at Freddie Mac, said in a news release.

SAN FRANCISCO — Apple has been exploring ways to broaden the appeal of the iPhone by making the popular device less expensive and allowing users to control it with voice commands.

But contrary to published reports, Apple is not developing a smaller iPhone, according to peoInside ple briefed on Apple’s plans who • Apple’s requested anonymity because the subscription plans are confidential. terms draw Apple’s engineers are focused antitrust on finishing the next version of the scrutiny, iPhone, which is likely to be similar in size to the current iPhone 4, Page B3 said one of the people. The person said Apple was not planning to introduce a smaller iPhone any time soon. Analysts expect the new iPhone to be ready this summer.

Another person who is in direct contact with Apple also said the company would not make a smaller iPhone at this time, in part because a smaller device would not necessarily be much cheaper to manufacture and because it would be more difficult to operate.

Bend WinterFest also lifts expectations for a big increase in business activity

By Jordan Novet The Bulletin

Heavy snowfall at Mt. Bachelor ski area this week and the upcoming 12th annual Bend WinterFest have set the stage for a terrific tourism turnout over Presidents Day weekend.

Some lodging properties are estimating occupancy and revenue increases of as much as 24 percent compared to the same weekend last year.

As of Wednesday, the 48-hour snow total at the mountain was the

best out of all North American resorts, with 35 inches of new snow, and on Thursday Mt. Bachelor was in the top five, said spokesman Andy Goggins.

The mountain has “typical Utahstyle powder conditions, so it’s perfect,” Goggins said. “You literally just fly.”

The conditions couldn’t be better — just in time for Presidents Day weekend, Goggins said.

Gina Miller, director of marketing at Bend-based Lay It Out Events, which produces Bend

WinterFest, said she expects attendance to match, if not exceed, that of last year, at 30,000.

Tourism promoters are excited about both snowfall at Mt. Bachelor and the festival in Bend.

“As long as the passes stay clear, we anticipate to have good crowds coming over from the Willamette Valley and Seattle,” said Doug La Placa, Visit Bend’s president and CEO. “We have forecasts of a very good holiday weekend.”

La Placa said he expects “significantly stronger performance” in terms of citywide transient roomtax collections this February compared with February 2010, which itself was up 3.2 percent compared with February 2009.

Tapping into surging export opportunities to China and other emerging economic powers like India and Brazil may hold the greatest potential for rebuilding America’s sagging economy, especially in exportdependent states like Oregon, according to Bill Wyatt, executive director at the Port of Portland.

During a stop in Bend on Thursday, Wyatt told members of the City Club of Central Oregon that Oregon exported more than $4 billion in goods and services Bill Wyatt, to China last year, surpassing executive director, Port Japan, Canada and Europe. But that’s a drop in the bucket comof Portland pared to what Oregon could be exporting to China and emerging economic powers as the middle class grows and prospers in those nations, he said.

Instead of fearing China, Wyatt recommended making a greater effort to woo Chinese government officials, business leaders, tourists and potential homeowners to Oregon and, in particular, Central Oregon.

Seeing potential safety hazard, regulators rethink ignition rule

By Christopher Jensen

Smart key fobs, such as this one for a Nissan Rogue, may increase the chances of a vehicle rolling away.

New York Times News Service

Concern over the implications of a 2006 revision to a federal safety standard is spurring regulators at the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration to reconsider their change. At issue is whether the change, which redefined what constitutes a car’s ignition key, has effectively increased the possibility of accidents caused by a vehicle rolling away.

The matter involves the socalled smart key fobs used in millions of vehicles to replace conventional metal keys. Instead of pins and tumblers, these devices use an electronic code that enables a vehicle to be started either by pressing a button or inserting the fob into a slot on the dashboard.

The problem is that under the revised NHTSA standard for such devices, the vehicle’s engine

can be shut off and the key fob removed without the automatic transmission being shifted to the Park position. A spokesman for the safety agency, Jose Alberto Ucles, said in an e-mail exchange that the chief concerns behind

the fresh look at the standard “are vehicle roll-away, theft, possible carbon monoxide poisoning and shutting off moving vehicles in the event of an emergency.”

Since 1992, automakers have been required to prevent the key from being removed from the ignition unless the transmission is in Park, a measure intended to prevent the “accidental roll-away of motor vehicles.”

“I thought it was rolling a little bit, and then I thought, well, I was just imagining things,” she said. “There is no way it could move.”

Taylor, 67, said she assumed the Murano was like all the vehicles she had driven for decades — that it had to be in Park to remove the key.

When the Murano began to speed up, she opened the driver’s door and tried to climb in. “But it knocked me down,” she said in an interview. “I was afraid if I didn’t grab something it would pull me under the car.”

She was dragged into the street. A passer-by jumped into the vehicle and stopped it, but the tire stopped on her leg, causing serious injury.

Taylor’s Murano is not the only vehicle whose key can be removed without putting the transmission in Park.

David Champion, director of the Consumers Union auto test center in Connecticut, checked 11 vehicles recently purchased

by Consumer Reports magazine for testing. He said that seven, including 2010 and 2011 models from Hyundai, Infiniti and Lincoln, allowed the engine to be turned off with the gearshift lever in Neutral or Drive.

But because there were audible and electronic warnings, Champion said, he did not see this as “too much of an issue.”

In e-mails, spokesmen for Hyundai, Nissan (Infiniti’s parent) and Ford said that their vehicles com-

with less storage. Flash storage is one of the iPhone’s most expensive components.

Apple has dominated the high end of the smart phone market, but the company is facing increasing competition from devices running Google’s Android, which collectively outsell the iPhone. Analysts said it would make sense for Apple to introduce a cheaper iPhone, especially in overseas markets where carriers do not subsidize handsets. Unsubsidized handsets are often called “prepaid.”

“If they are going to be a player in the global market, they have to have a prepaid option,” said Gene Munster, an analyst with Piper Jaffray. But Munster said that to be successful, a prepaid iPhone would have to be able to run the more than 300,000 apps available in the App Store.

A.M. Sacconaghi Jr., an analyst with Sanford C. Bernstein & Co., said a low-priced iPhone could help Apple expand its unit sales of the device sixfold.

In recent days, some published reports, citing anonymous sources, said Apple was building a smaller iPhone. One report gave the code name of the project as N97. Several people with knowledge of Apple’s plans said that N97 was the code name for the Verizon iPhone 4, which was introduced this month.

SAN FRANCISCO — Apple’s new subscription service for iPad and iPhone applications, which has drawn complaints from some publishers, has also drawn the attention of federal antitrust regulators, according to a person with direct knowledge of the matter.

The person, who agreed to speak on the condition of anonymity because the government inquiries were confidential, said Thursday that the regulators’ interest was preliminary and might not develop into a formal investigation.

On Monday, Apple introduced a subscription mechanism for apps that required companies to offer customers the possibility of buying content like magazines or music through its payment system, with Apple taking a 30 percent cut. The rules also bar companies from offering a better deal to customers if they pay for a subscription elsewhere, say on a company’s own website. Apps that do not comply may not be used on Apple devices.

The announcement drew complaints from some publishers who said giving Apple a 30 percent cut would not be economically feasible.

The Justice Department has been looking into Apple’s tactics in the music business for nearly a year. And the Federal Trade Commission has been looking at some of the restrictions Apple puts on developers who create applications for the iPhone and iPad. — New York Times News Service or camera quality, could change to offer a less expensive model, the size of the device would not vary,” said the person, who has worked on multiple versions of the device.

Another person with knowledge of Apple’s plans said the company was building a more versatile version of its MobileMe service, which allows users to store music, photos and files online and have them accessible on all their devices. The current version of MobileMe, which costs $100 a year, has failed to catch on with consumers. Rivals like Google and others offer similar services free.

“We’re actually sold out for Saturday, and we’ve got about 10 rooms left (out of 117) for Friday,” said General Manager Tom Penn. He estimated a 10 percent improvement over this time last year.

“Really, Mother Nature is the most important factor,” he said.

“The mountain’s looking good for snow. That’s what’s getting people here.”

Apple’s new subscription service draws antitrust scrutiny

Continued from B1 More important, a phone with a smaller screen would force many developers to rewrite their apps, which Apple wants to avoid, the person said.

Steve Jobs, Apple’s chief executive, appeared to reinforce that last point recently when he praised the iPhone’s uniformity, contrasting it with phones based on Google’s Android software, which come in many formats.

“We think Android is very, very fragmented and getting more fragmented by the day,” Jobs told financial analysts in October. “We think this is a huge strength of our approach compared to Google’s.”

Another senior Apple executive said during a private meeting recently that it did not make sense for the company to make multiple iPhone models, noting that Apple would stick with its practice of dropping the price of older models when it introduced a new one.

The iPhone 3GS is now available for $49 with a two-year contract that helps subsidize the price of the device in the United States.

As part of its effort to find new customers for the iPhone, Apple plans to make it easier to operate the device through voice commands, removing an obstacle for people who do not like using a virtual keyboard, said another person with knowledge of Apple’s plans.

Apple is also considering changing internal components of the device to bring costs down.

The new version of MobileMe is expected to be free and would allow users to sync their files without using a cable.

“The goal is that your photos and other media content will eventually just sync across all your Apple devices without people having to do anything,” the person said. If more iPhone users stored files online, Apple could make cheaper devices

plied with federal standards.

In 2009, Taylor was part of a class-action suit against Nissan filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California. The suit argued that Nissan’s system did not comply with the intent of the federal safety standard — preventing roll-away accidents — and was endangering consumers.

But Nissan argued that its vehicles were safe and complied with the federal standard, and the court agreed. Last September, Judge Saundra Brown Armstrong dismissed the case, saying the standard was clear: an electronic code can be a key.

In her view, the Nissans were in compliance.

When the revised standard was adopted, the agency’s deputy administrator was Jacqueline Glassman. In an interview, Glassman, who has since retired from the agency to work for a Washington law firm, said that while the engine could be turned off and the fob removed from a vehicle without the transmission being in Park, there was no violation of the standard because “the key is the electronic code” and that code is still in the vehicle’s system.

“It doesn’t pass the commonsense test,” said Sean Kane, the president of Safety Research and Strategies, a Massachusetts consulting firm that provides research for plaintiff’s attorneys.

The San Francisco lawyer working for the plaintiffs in the Nissan suit, Scott Nealey, said that NHTSA’s stance of accepting the electronic code as a key undermined the standard’s established goal. Nealey pointed out that many automakers addressed the problem with an electronic safeguard requiring the transmission to be in Park before the key is removed.

A spokeswoman for the safety agency, Karen Aldana, said in an e-mail that automakers originally asked the agency whether an electronic code could be considered a key and they were told that was allowed. “NHTSA doesn’t wish to discourage innovation when it comes to automotive technology,” she wrote.

Time Inc. CEO ousted

By Jeremy W. Peters New York Times News Service

Time Inc.’s chief executive, Jack Griffin, is leaving the company after less than six months on the job — forced out over what company executives said was a widespread sense that his management style was brusque and ill-fitting the corporate culture there.

Griffin, 50, drew an unusual public rebuke from Jeff Bewkes, chief executive of Time Inc.’s parent company, Time War-

Exports Continued from B1 With the rise of the middle class in countries like China, India and Brazil, Wyatt said there’s a huge opportunity to expand exports of all kinds of products, ranging from cattle, hay, wheat and other agricultural commodities to lumber, hightech components for computers, green-energy products such as solar panels and hydrogen fuel cells, unmanned aerial drones, pharmaceuticals and other products grown, designed or built by Bend-area companies.

“Agriculture’s best days are ahead for export markets,” Wyatt said.

He said Oregon’s secondary wood products manufacturers are currently importing large quantities of pine lumber from forest farms in Chile and New Zealand, but if Oregon can overcome severe timber harvest restrictions on federal lands, the state’s timber industry also could experience a major resurgence with growth in the middle class in China and other emerging economic powers.

Shifting markets “We are about to enter a new cycle where there will be foreign buyers who will be willing to pay more than our citizens are willing to pay,” Wyatt said.

“We are going to be competing for our own stuff, and we may be unable or unwilling to pay the price foreign buyers will pay.”

Based in part on the projected growth of a huge middle class in China, Wyatt said the people who begin to prepare for that transition now by learning to speak and understand some Chinese, as well as learning about Chinese culture and preferences in food, clothing and other products will be in a better position to do business with potential customers from China.

The same principles apply to India and Brazil, and other

“We are about to enter a new cycle where there will be foreign buyers who will be willing to pay more than our citizens are willing to pay. ” — Bill Wyatt, executive director, Port of Portland nations with a growing middle class.

“People think of China with the big red C for communism, but there is phenomenal wealth being created in China,” Wyatt said. “They now have more billionaires than we do.

“As things go on, we will experience Chinese nationals wanting to come here to buy a second home, move here or locate a business here, just like we saw with the Japanese in the 1980s,” Wyatt said. “We have to think of that and be prepared for it.”

Linking the state Wyatt said Central Oregon already exports substantial products through the Port of Portland.

In the past 12 months, Wyatt said more than 30 Central Oregon companies connected with international markets through the port’s facilities, including Baby Safety Foam.com, for fireplace hearth safety guards; CarTek, golf carts; Champion-Huffman Inc., dental components; DK Trading, wheat; Hydro Flask, stainless steel water bottles; In the Breeze, kites, spinners and windsocks; Les Schwab, tires; Metolius, rock climbing gear; PV Powered, grid-tied inverters for solar energy; Bright Wood, lumber products; Ruff Wear, outdoor dog gear; Trans-Pacific Brokers, shipping; U.S. Allegiance Inc., military branded merchandise; and many others.

Central Oregon companies shipped more than 9,000 tons of cargo through the Port of Port-

land, and a total of 128,000 Central Oregon passengers traveled through Portland International Airport, mostly via Redmond Airport, Wyatt said.

“Because Port of Portland operations support businesses across the entire state, it might be more accurate to call it the Port of Oregon,” Wyatt said.

“Many customers and business partners such as shipping lines, railroads and airlines are private-sector companies located outside of Portland.”

He said the port has a vital public mission to link all regions of the state to national and global markets.

“Our mission to connect the region to the global marketplace is achieved while generating about 97 percent of our operating revenues from business transactions,” said Wyatt, who was appointed the port’s executive director in 2001, after serving as chief of staff to Gov. John Kitzhaber during Kitzhaber’s first two terms as governor.

Walking the walk While he encouraged business and government officials to look for ways to expand export opportunities to help lift the regional, state and national economies, Wyatt said he is keenly aware that to attract business to the state, the governor, Legislature and other state officials need to “walk the talk” when it comes to creating an attractive business climate.

“We have to be sure our business climate matches our rhetoric,” Wyatt said.

That includes avoiding the temptation to increase business taxes to balance the state budget, as well as continuing to offer green energy tax credits to encourage green businesses to locate here, and then to keep them from being lured away by other states or other countries once they set up business in Oregon, Wyatt said.

ASCOCC has spent $18K on attorney COCC student government has also spent $8,895 on public relations

By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin

The Associated Students of Central Oregon Community College has now racked up more than $18,000 in lawyer’s fees and nearly $9,000 for a public relations specialist.

Documents obtained by The Bulletin show the college student government has paid

Greg Lynch, an attorney with Miller Nash LLP, $18,260.50 for his work in October, November and December.

ASCOCC pays these bills out of student fees it collects.

Students pay a $1.50 ASCOCC student fee for every credit they take each term. ASCOCC expects to collect about $260,000 in student fees in 2010-11, money

that mostly goes to clubs and activities on campus. With these most recent bills, ASCOCC has spent nearly 10 percent of its 2010-11 student fees on Lynch and Simmons.

ASCOCC hired Lynch in October to represent the group in negotiations with the college to formalize ASCOCC’s relationship with COCC. While the college has had a student government since at least the 1950s, and a student fee that ASCOCC oversees since 1993, no formal policy was ever put in place.

Lynch has served as the student

government’s advocate and met with COCC officials several times throughout the fall and winter term to try to finalize an agreement.

Lynch’s bill was for 44.6 hours of work — at $295 an hour — in November and December, mostly e-mail and telephone communications and conferences with college officials.

The student government also paid $2,985 for work in December and January by India Simmons, the president of PR Ink, for public relations work. In that bill, Simmons described

her work as 10 hours per week at a reduced rate of $195 per hour, and noted in the bill that she’d actually worked more than 30 hours per month. She also charged the student government $60 for office expenses.

“I’ve been intimately involved with the process with Greg Lynch in defining and clarifying” the student government’s role at the college, Simmons said. She said neither she nor Lynch sits in on the meetings between the college and the student council.

With the state still trying to target how much it wants to reduce vehicle emissions in Bend and Oregon’s five other urban areas, city officials are keeping a close eye on what these standards might mean locally.

Last year, the state set a goal through Senate Bill 1059 of reducing metropolitan greenhouse gas emissions from cars, trucks and other light vehicles to 1990 levels by 2035.

It intends to do this, in part, by pushing cities to plan better, increasing densities in urban areas, bolstering public transit and building more bicycle- and pedestrian-friendly pathways.

The other metropolitan areas that would be affected are Portland, Salem-Keizer, EugeneSpringfield, the Rogue Valley and Corvallis.

On Thursday, members of the Department of Land Conservation and Development gave Bend’s Metropolitan Planning Organization a presentation on where they were in the process of setting emission standards that are expected to be adopted later this year. The MPO is a federally designated agency that oversees transportation planning in the Bend region.

Portland standards could spread to Bend While Portland is the only metro area required to follow a strict approach to meeting these targets through changes in land use and transportation planning, local officials still expressed concerns that the state would eventually force Bend and the other cities to do the same.

“We’re still skeptical,” said Bend City Councilor Tom Greene, who sits on the MPO board.

He said one of his biggest concerns about the new rules is that they could become unfunded mandates, meaning the city would have to pay out of its own pocket to pursue some of the measures designed to cut greenhouse gas emissions.

Councilor Mark Capell, who heads the MPO board, has the same concern. He said rules created for cutting emissions should be flexible and come with enough funding to meet them.

“If we don’t have those two things,” he said, “we can stop talking about it.”

REDMOND SCHOOL DISTRICT

‘Many hands get the job done’

Exchanging bond funds for new levy would only yield $600K

By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

If the Redmond School District were to move forward with a proposed operating levy, it would be able to raise only about $600,000 a year — a small fraction of the $10 million shortfall it faces next year.

A teachers union member had recently proposed that the district offer to return some of the $16 million left over from the $110 million construction bond voters approved in 2008. In exchange, the district would ask for voter approval of an operating levy. That move would effectively free up some bond savings, which otherwise are reserved for capital projects such as building the new high school and upgrading buildings.

The levy estimate is a rough one, and the district is still investigating several issues, from timing to how much a levy would raise, according to Mike McIntosh, the district’s director of operations.

Staff could make a recommendation to the Redmond School Board at its Feb. 23 meeting.

“We want to do it justice, and treat it fairly and squarely,” McIntosh said.

In freeing capital money for operations, the proposal is similar to one made by Gov. John Kitzhaber. The governor recently called for the state Legislature to ask voters to move state police into the fund that pays for highways. That money is currently reserved by the state constitution for transportation projects. The money currently funding police would be spent on education.

A work crew from Deschutes County Community Justice Department’s community service program clears snow from a bus stop Thursday in Bend.

Community justice crews clear snow at Bend bus stations

By Megan Kehoe The Bulletin

Thursday wasn’t an easy day for workers in the Deschutes County Community Justice Department’s community service program. Instead of working on construction projects or picking up highway litter, workers removed piles of heavy, dense snow from more than 20 bus stops along Third Street in Bend.

“It’s really a case of ‘many hands get the job done’ today,” said worker Inawin Malesa, 23. “It’s not easy, but I think it’s been really good so far.”

As part of the Deschutes County Community Justice Department’s community service program, the workers were completing court-ordered mandatory community service hours. Some were partici-

“Not only does this work benefit the community, but the community can see that they’re really trying to give back. We’re trying to show them that the community is all of ours — theirs, too.”

— Don Bradford, crew supervisor, Deschutes County Community Justice Department’s community service program

pating in the snow removal as part of their probation or parole requirements.

The adult community service program is relatively new, says Community Service Program Supervisor Jim Smith, who has paired offenders with community service projects since September.

“They work on a variety of community service projects, and in a lot of instances, they’re helping seniors or disabled people,” Smith said.

The program offers offenders the chance to work off com-

munity service sentences on Thursdays and Fridays every week. About six to 10 workers participate in projects such as construction work, litter patrol and graffiti removal.

“So far, it’s been a really successful program,” said crew supervisor Don Bradford. “A lot of them are unemployed right now because of the economy, so this is a nice way to keep them busy.”

Though the community service is mandatory, some workers don’t see it as all bad.

“I know it’s been really help-

ful for a lot of people,” said Malesa, “especially for elderly folks who ride the bus.”

Malesa said conditions have made it dangerous for a lot of Bend Area Transit riders this week.

“You see people barely able to get on the bus out here because of the snow,” Malesa said. “So it’s nice to help out, and it’s something I can feel good about doing.”

Bradford said that the attitude of the community service workers was one of the enjoyable aspects of the job.

“These guys understand the things they’ve done, and they understand that they weren’t right,” Bradford said. “They’ve made mistakes, but they’re trying to straighten themselves out now.”

Police still attempting to reach ‘person of interest’ in hit-and-run

By Scott Hammers The Bulletin

Police have not yet been able to talk to a “person of interest” in their investigation of the hit-and-run crash that killed a Bend man in late January, but are still confident they will make an arrest.

On the night of Jan. 26, Anthony “Tony” Martin was struck by a southbound vehicle as he pushed his bicycle across Third Street near Revere Avenue. The vehicle did not stop, and Martin died at the scene.

On Thursday, Bend Police Lt. Ben Gregory said he regretted saying last week that an arrest was “imminent,” adding that his choice of words may have given Martin’s friends and family false hope about the pace of the investigation.

“We do feel for the fam-

ily. However, with that being said, our primary res p o n s i bi l i t y is not only to bring closure to the family, but to do the Anthony right thing for Martin the victim and bring a good, prosecutable case to the district attorney so they can make charging decisions,” he said.

“Because ultimately that’s what we’re responsible for — if we rush things and hurry to make an arrest, we don’t fulfill that duty.”

A few days after the crash, a truck matching the description of the one that struck Martin was turned over to investigators by its registered owner. Officers collected fingerprint and DNA evidence from the 2008

GMC pickup, Gregory said, and turned over their findings to the Oregon State Police crime lab for further processing.

Gregory said police have served two search warrants at the Bend home of the vehicle’s owner, but declined to reveal what evidence they were looking for or have seized.

Multiple licensed drivers live at the address where the truck is registered, Gregory said, complicating the process of determining who was in the driver’s seat on the night of the crash.

Gregory said there is no reason to believe the driver that struck Martin had stolen the truck or was not authorized to drive it.

Although police are not ready to identify their person of interest or describe the person as a suspect, Gregory said they are narrowing in on bringing charges against the person.

Emissions Continued from C1 Capell, who is involved with committees working on these policy changes, said there seems to be support from the state to help metro areas pay for the new planning tactics. Those funding mechanisms, however, would still need to be approved.

While the state’s current policy wouldn’t force Bend to comply with gas emission limits, DLCD officials said Thursday that the goal could affect the city in other ways.

Lawmakers and state agencies do consider the goal a priority. Thus, the city’s eligibility for grant funds might suffer if it doesn’t take steps to reduce its emissions — for instance,

by encouraging higher density development.

Bob Cortright, the transportation planning coordinator for DLCD, said there’s still a lot of wiggle room for how the new rules will be formed, noting that affected cities will be able to meet emissions standards by various methods.

Ultimately, each metropolitan area will decide how to cut emis-

sions, he said, and options could include the expansion of transit services and the encouragement of mixed-use developments. “In a lot of ways, this is just building on things that we have been doing,� Cortright said. “It’s not new. It’s not rocket science.�

O Obama back in High court asked to end state pushing for non-unanimous convictions education spending

By Mark Sherman

The Associated Press

By Tim Fought The Associated Press

PORTLAND — It didn’t take long for President Barack Obama to make a return trip to Oregon, where he’s scored big as a campaigner.

The president plans a threehour stop today to tour Intel’s campus in the Portland suburb of Hillsboro and check out the company’s initiatives to encourage young people to become hightech scientists and engineers.

In late October, Obama was in Portland campaigning for John Kitzhaber, a Democrat who survived a close race for governor while the party was getting ready to take what the president later called a national shellacking from Republicans — including losing an ironclad grip on the Oregon Legislature.

A White House announcement said Obama would tour the campus of Intel, the state’s largest private employer with about 15,000 workers. The company’s announcement last year that it would expand its chipmaking capacity was a lift for the state, whose unemployment rate during the recession was among the highest in the nation

and has remained above 10 percent for more than a year.

Obama, the White House said, also plans to get more information about the company’s efforts to nourish the supply of young, highly trained high-tech workers. Company officials say they’ve been talking to the administration about those initiatives since Obama’s transition period.

High-tech executives have long bemoaned a shortage of engineering talent to drive their industries.

What Obama will be hearing about are Intel education initiatives designed to get elementary and secondary students excited about careers in high-tech.

Among them are sponsoring an international science fair and U.S. scholarships, distributing a curriculum that allows 11- to 15-year-olds to engineer solutions to design problems, operating a training program to help teachers integrate technology into their lesson plans, and helping to sponsor the public broadcasting “Design Squad” show that gets young people working together on engineering challenges.

O B Trooper injured when tree falls on patrol car

tion in Salem last month, leading to his arrest on Tuesday.

GRANTS PASS — Oregon State Police say a trooper received minor injuries when a snow-laden tree fell on his patrol car Thursday morning.

Police say Senior Trooper Ken Snook was driving at about 25 mph on Highway 199 near the California border when the estimated 12-inch-diameter tree crashed across the hood of his car.

Snook was able to get out of the car and call for help. He was taken to Grants Pass, where he was treated at Three Rivers Community Hospital and released.

State gets grant for insurance exchange PORTLAND — Oregon is getting $48 million to help build the infrastructure for health insurance exchanges that would allow people to get coverage under last year’s health care law.

The grant from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services was announced Thursday. Federal officials hope the Oregon Health Plan and six other Medicaid programs use the grants to develop computer systems that can be tailored for use in other states.

The insurance exchanges will allow individuals and small businesses to pool their risk and purchasing power to get better rates.

Gov. John Kitzhaber’s spokesman Tim Raphael calls the development “an important part” of the governor’s reform effort.

The other states getting money are: Kansas, Maryland, New York, Oklahoma and Wisconsin.

A multistate program through the University of Massachusetts also got a grant.

Police arrest Texas fugitive on sex charges SALEM — Police in Oregon say they have arrested a fugitive who fled from sexual assault charges in Texas 10 years ago.

Salem police say they also charged 37-year-old Jaime Villanueva-Castro with sex abuse, rape, sodomy and assault in Oregon.

Salem police said VillanuevaCastro was indicted in Austin, Texas, in 1999 on charges of aggravated sexual assault of a child.

Villanueva-Castro fled Texas but was arrested in Salem in 2001 after a traffic stop. He was extradited to Texas, but failed to complete his trial and apparently fled to Mexico.

The trial continued without him, and he was sentenced to 70 years in prison in Texas.

Detectives said Villanueva-Castro moved to Oregon in 2007 and became the target of an investiga-

PORTLAND — Interpol and U.S. marshals are among the law enforcement agencies searching for a former Beaverton School District teacher facing child pornography charges.

KPTV in Portland reports that Interpol released a bulletin for 35year-old Logan Storm on Wednesday. Detectives say they believe he could be overseas because his native country is Ireland.

An arrest warrant was issued after investigators said they found child pornography on Storm’s computer.

Beaverton School District officials said Storm resigned from Stoller Middle School in northwest Portland, where he was a math teacher.

Legislation to restrict student restraints PORTLAND — Holding students face down with the use of handcuffs, duct tape and other mechanical or chemical restraints would be banned under a bill being considered in the Oregon state house.

The Oregonian reports the bill also would force school districts to collect data on other uses of restraints and seclusion and report to the state Department of Education, giving the state the ability to investigate complaints.

Districts also would have to notify parents about incidents.

The sponsor, Rep. Sara Gelser of Corvallis, says the bill is mostly directed at special education classes.

WASHINGTON — Almost anywhere in the United States, two holdouts among 12 jurors would prevent a conviction.

Unfortunately for Troy Barbour, his trial for attempted murder took place in Louisiana, where he got 48 years in prison after a jury convicted him on a 10-2 vote.

Now Barbour is asking the Supreme Court to end the practice — used only in Louisiana and Oregon — that allows defendants to be convicted of some crimes despite disagreement among jurors.

The justices meet privately today after a more than threeweek break. Barbour’s case is among hundreds they are expected to decide then whether or not to hear. The next list of cases the court has agreed to hear is expected Tuesday.

Nearly 40 years ago, the Supreme Court ruled that nothing in the Constitution bars states from allowing some convictions by non-unanimous verdicts. But even in these two states, first-degree murder, which could bring the death penalty, requires a unanimous verdict.

The court has held that

Congressman attempts to block dam removal

By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press

GRANTS PASS — A California congressman tried Thursday to block removal of four hydroelectric dams on the Klamath River by eliminating funding for a key study.

In Washington, D.C., Republican U.S. Rep. Tom McClintock succeeded in putting an amendment into the House continuing resolution Wednesday that cut $1.9 million from the Department of the Interior budget for the rest of this year.

McClintock planned to offer a second amendment Thursday to specifically target the study being done so that Interior Secretary Ken Salazar can decide whether to go ahead with removing the dams as part of a landmark agreement to open hundreds of miles of spawning habitat for struggling salmon blocked for a century, assure water for farmers on a federal irrigation project, and restore the ecology of the Klamath Basin.

“At a time we can’t guarantee enough electricity to keep people’s air conditioning going, the

idea of tearing down four perfectly good hydroelectric dams turning out 155 megawatts of power is insane,” McClintock told The Associated Press from Washington, D.C. The U.S. Bureau of Reclamation and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service are supposed to finish the study next year. It is examining sediments trapped behind the dams and other issues to see if dam removal is feasible. It was not immediately clear whether cutting off funding at this point would be enough to delay or stop dam removal, now scheduled to begin in 2020.

Sen. Jeff Merkley, D-Ore., would fight to protect the study funding, said spokeswoman Julie Edwards.

“The farmers, tribes, fishing organizations and local officials who worked on the restoration agreement should not see that work undone,” she said from Washington, D.C. The dam removal agreements were signed in 2008 by the states of Oregon and California, tribes, conservation groups and farmers.

court’s recent decision to apply Second Amendment gun rights to state and federal law undermines the rationale for Powell’s approach.

In June, the court ruled, in a challenge to gun control laws in the Chicago area, that protections in the Bill of Rights generally should apply identically to the states and the

federal government.

A series of cases dealing with judges’ discretion in meting out prison time also supports the argument that state and federal trials should follow the same rules, Fisher said.

In opposition, Louisiana argued that the court should not overrule the 1972 decision, which has guided state law.

More than 80 defendants have been convicted in the past five years, including at least two dozen in the past 16 months by non-unanimous juries in the two states, the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers said in a brief it filed in support of Barbour.

The justices have rejected previous appeals from defendants in the two states that asked them to require unanimous verdicts in all criminal proceedings.

In Barbour’s case, there is no dispute that he shot Donald Baker five times with a stolen snubnosed revolver.

Two jurors questioned the state’s case against Barbour, but the other 10 voted to convict.

A Louisiana appeals court upheld the conviction, saying it was bound by the 1972 Supreme Court ruling.

Barge maker cleanup plan approved PORTLAND — An Oregon barge manufacturer has won federal approval for a plan to clean up a section of the Willamette River in downtown Portland.

The Oregonian reports the company, Zidell, plans to revamp 3,000 feet of shoreline and cap contaminated river sediment.

The project should open 15 acres of prime south waterfront land for development and set the stage for a long-awaited riverside greenway in Portland.

National Marine Fisheries Service approval allows Zidell to largely avoid costly dredging of sediment fouled by decades of industrial pollution, instead approving lower-cost gravel caps over the contamination.

The agency concluded that Zidell’s plan is not likely to jeopardize threatened wild fish or adversely modify their habitat.

Road upgrade levy is worth it

O

ne of the best kinds of tax measures to vote on, no doubt, is the kind that doesn’t tax you more than you’re already taxed. That’s the sort of proposal Bend city councilors

hope voters will approve in a couple of months.

Bend’s financial difficulties should be familiar to most city residents — officials have been upfront about the problems the city must solve if it is to balance its budget and continue providing the services it does today. Among those services are city streets adequate to the traffic upon them. And road upgrades do not come cheap. In fact, were the city to ask voters to pay for all the improvements that need to be done, the bill would come to something like $90 million, not the $30 million the city will seek.

Looking at the list of improvements city councilors approved for the ballot measure, it looks like they opted for the changes that would provide the greatest enhancements to both safety and traffic flow around town. Thus the largest chunk of cash raised will be spent on a badly needed upgrade to Reed Market Road east of Third Street. In part because of the Healy Bridge link between Reed and Mt. Washington Drive, it is among the city’s most heavily traveled thoroughfares. When it was designed, no one expected it to be used in the way it is today. A roundabout at the intersection of Brookswood Boulevard and Powers Road, meanwhile, will make that area a far safer place to drive.

Best of all, from the taxpayer’s standpoint, tax bills won’t rise as a re-

Rather, if it is approved it will go into effect next year after a measure that financed the downtown parking garage and other improvements expires. The cost, 27 cents per $1,000 of assessed property value, is what is currently being levied and will not change.

One item on the list, improvements aimed at making life better for pedestrians on 14th Street from Galveston to Simpson, will be completed only if other projects come in under budget. If that were to happen, the money saved would go to make the 14th Street improvements.

Residents have until the middle of May to make up their minds about the entire package. That’s more than enough time to look at what is proposed and judge whether the substantial benefit is worth the cost. We hope they decide just that.

The OLCC’s thirst T

he Oregon Liquor Control Commission knows all about addiction and abuse. That’s why it exists: to balance the sale of alcohol and ensure alcohol is not abused.

Other states manage to do just fine without a state monopoly on liquor sales, though. For now, the OLCC is what Oregon has got.

But back to addiction. One of the dangers of addiction is overdose. One of the dangers of government is excessive regulation. The OLCC brings them both together in a regulation overdose.

The OLCC is currently considering updates to its financial assistance rules. These rules are called “tiedhouse” prohibitions.

Before prohibition, some brewers discovered that a great way to sell their booze was to have their own saloons, or tied houses. They would only sell their own brews. Tied houses were not the reason for prohibition, but in the eyes of some, they showed the insidious reach of booze.

A prohibition hangover are tiedhouse prohibitions in federal law. In short, federal law wants to prohibit brewers from thwarting competition and there are rules in place to prevent it. It doesn’t really apply to places that brew their own. It’s about big manufacturers or distributors using

their financial muscle to squeeze out competition.

There’s a $300 limit in federal regulations on product displays per brand per retail establishment. In Oregon, under OLCC rules, that limit is a much stricter $30. The proposed change desired by the Oregon Beer & Wine Distributors Association would bring it up to $100.

There’s also a general federal regulation stating that signs for alcohol products shouldn’t hinder competition. In Oregon, the OLCC rule is that the maximum size of exterior point of sale allowed is 630 square inches.

The proposed change desired by the Oregon Beer & Wine Distributors Association would bring it up to 1,500 square inches.

Oregonians can’t expect to change federal law by themselves, but they can ask why the OLCC is looking for ways to regulate displays and signs more than called for by federal law.

Christie Scott, an OLCC spokeswoman, told us in an e-mail that tied-house prohibitions “create a separation between the retailer and the ‘supplier’ to prevent undue influence and monopolies.”

She’s right. But we can’t see how limits of $100 for a display or 1,500 square inches for a sign represent anything more than thirst for regulation.

My Nickel’s Worth Do not support road plan Recently, the Bend City Council invited residents to a meeting to discuss three options for some road improvements.

Sorry, I couldn’t make the meeting.

According to The Bulletin, the price tag on each option was about $30 million and we would apparently only choose one. As a homeowner and taxpayer, I question doing any of the options.

1) My property value is about half of what I paid (four short years ago), but my property taxes have not gone down one red cent; 2) I am now paying more taxes at the gas pump for every gallon of gas I use; 3) Our current roads are in need of a lot of repair. I really think that taxing us more for some additional project, that will only benefit one small area of town, is a bad idea. In fact any new tax (bond or levy) is not going to get my vote and I ask you why should it get yours? Let’s tighten our belts, fix the roads we have and let the property owners survive. Or here’s a novel idea … lower our property taxes to today’s market values … then pass the bond issue proposed.

Fluoride in the water I was raised in the panhandle of Texas, where nearby kids had black on their teeth due to fluoride in the water. But their teeth were basically without decay.

Never heard in those days about fluoride being unhealthy. Now we are beginning to hear a hue and cry about fluoride being bad for one’s health.

Like so many things in this day and age, one needs to ascertain who is making the statements about harm such as fluoride in the water.

To be acceptable, the claims should be from someone not practicing dentistry.

Those people may have ulterior motives in such cries of alarm.

Ernest M. De Corte Redmond

Revenue credit and blame Lawrence Green, in a Feb. 11 letter, asserts that in 1988, Reagan’s last year in office, government revenues were 76 percent more than had been collected in any year of any other administration and this was attributed to large increases in high earners income tax. To the contrary, in 1988, the biggest gain came from a 112 percent gain in higher Social Security/Medicare taxes versus 64 percent gain in personal income tax receipts. The increase in Social Security/Medicare receipts was due to higher tax rates (rates increased 22.5 percent), amounts subject to the tax increased 74 percent, and in 1983, new government employees were included in the taxable base.

As to the assertion that the tax revenue generated benefited everyone, constant dollar income per capita (GDP/ capita) increased 18 percent during the eight years of the Reagan administration versus a 31 percent increase during the eight years of the Kennedy/Johnson administration. The Reagan years did not come close to the gains of the Kennedy/Johnson administration.

As to the assertion that the Democratic Congress was the cause of one of the greatest federal deficits (during Reagan’s administration, federal expenditures exceeded revenues by 23 percent), the writer seems to forget that both tax rates and spending are the result of actions of both the Congress and the executive branch of the federal

government (one cannot give separate credit to the executive branch for tax policy and Congress for expenditure policy — they both are responsible for the result).

All in all, really most of us get leftovers.

Unfriendly to business My wife and I are Central Oregonbased vendors that have been forced to go out of the area to sell our recycled products. We recycle feed bags into shopping totes.

We were involved in a farmers market of Pine Mountain Buffalo Farm a couple of years ago. Deschutes County forced the market to close because of wanting to charge thousands and thousands for permits. The county’s greed was so extreme that the market had to close.

Now the city of Bend is wanting to close the inside market off of Colorado Street. Again, we may be forced out of the market to sell our product.

When we sell our product locally, we are able to spend our income locally.

When we are selling our product out of the area about half of our income goes to out of town businesses; meals, fuel, vendor space rent and lodging.

We have worked markets from Astoria to John Day, including Hillsboro, Gresham and many more. Never have we been forced to buy a vendor license except in Bend.

We will most likely be forced to go out of town this spring because the local governments are so unfriendly to businesses.

Heresy in regard to birth control has become politically correct

By Richard M. Thorne Bulletin guest columnist

I

submit that I’m a Catholic, a retired OB-GYN physician, who trained at the University of Southern California-Los Angeles County Hospital in the mid-’60s. At that time, more than 35,000 babies were born every year at that institution. During my five years there, I personally delivered or supervised the birth of more than 10,000 babies. With medical/surgical consultation, I experienced and treated most of the complications that can occur during pregnancy. During that interim I can honestly state that in only two occasions was a disease so severe that it couldn’t be safely treated so as to salvage the life of the mother.

Now to the “Phoenix Case” written about recently by columnist Nicholas Kristof. In 2009, a woman who had four children was admitted to St. Joseph Catholic Hospital in Phoenix at nine weeks of pregnancy with the medical complication of “pulmonary hypertension.” She was observed, treated and sent home.

She was re-admitted two weeks later

with a “worsening of her condition.” After review by a Sister Margaret McBride, the hospital administrator, plus the hospital ethics committee, it was decided to perform an abortion to “save the life of the mother.” Because of hospital privacy issues, a further deliberation whether other medical options were available cannot be ascertained at this time.

What I can say is that pulmonary hypertension comes in various degrees of severity. The main risks to the mother usually occur during the second and third trimesters. It is during that time frame that the blood volume during pregnancy is maximized, placing an additional burden on the pressure in the lung’s vasculature that can lead to lifethreatening right-heart failure. At 11 weeks pregnant, there is only about a 10 percent increase in blood volume, so at that time in pregnancy, the patient’s risk would not be much greater than in a nonpregnant state. Two Phoenix OB-GYN physicians, (Dr. William Chavira and Dr. Clinton Leonard) who reviewed the case for Bishop Thomas Olmsted, came to the

IN MY VIEW conclusion that a direct abortion was not a treatment for pulmonary hypertension in this case.

So what does this particular case tell us about the Catholic Church, Catholicbased hospitals and bishops charged with the oversight of those Catholic hospitals in following the Ethical & Religious Directives for Catholic Health Care Services, written and approved by the United States Conference of Catholic Bishops?

Olmsted’s duty, as bishop of the Phoenix Diocese, was to oversee that St. Joseph’s medical policies conformed to Catholic ethical policies. For years before his arrival, and during his seven years of tenure there, it was brought to his attention that St. Joseph Hospital was no longer following the directives.

They had allowed the dispensing of artificial birth control, and sterilizations and abortions for physical and mental reasons to be performed at their site.

When queried, they admitted this, and when asked by him if they would reverse their policies, which were contrary to the teachings of the Catholic Church, they said no! For the above reasons, Olmsted declared that St. Joseph could no longer call itself a Catholic hospital. (Similar to the same situation at St. Charles Hospital in Bend). Simply put: To be a Catholic hospital, they must “walk the talk,” since, “actions speak louder than words.”

Sister McBride, by her own actions (formal cooperation) in an act which the church considers to be an intrinsic evil, excommunicated herself! (Canon law 1329, paragraph 2). The hospital had two directives concerning abortion. The first directive pertained to this case. Physicians can’t perform direct abortions under any circumstance, including such reasons as “to save the life of the mother.” In Catholic moral ethics, the primary principle is always to preserve and protect the life of the mother and the baby.

Contrary to Kristof’s opinion, excommunication is not a punishment. In essence,

it is a reality check. Its purpose is to repair scandal, restore justice and reform the offender. Sister McBride gave scandal to the entire church, because as a religious representative of the church, she consented and encouraged an abortion.

For so-called “believers,” we live in a time when disobedience — choosing which commandments to follow or not to follow, being indifferent to the truths revealed by the son of God, Jesus Christ — is common.

Remaining “Catholic” even though acting as a heretic has become the politically correct norm, especially among our political leaders. Why is it that only dissident Catholics get all the press when they are the minority?

If Kristof had truly reported and not opined with malignant bias, the “Phoenix story” would have been about a bishop who was faithful to the tenets of his religious faith and a religious sister and hospital that were not.

He lives in Redmond.

Raymond D’Addario, photographer of Nazis, dies New York Times News Service Raymond D’Addario, an Army photographer whose images of Hitler’s top henchmen during the Nuremberg war crimes trials put their faces before the world as it became increasingly aware of Nazi atrocities, died Sunday in Holyoke, Mass., his hometown. He was 90.

The cause was a stroke, his daughter Linda Salmon said.

D’Addario was one of about a dozen still and motion-picture photographers assigned by the Army Pictorial Service in November 1945 to document the International Military Tribunal in Nuremberg, Germany. He was the most prolific member of the team and, perhaps, its most consequential.

Among his thousands of photographs, the best known are shots of the 21 defendants in the dock flanked by whitehelmeted military police officers standing straight with their arms folded behind their backs.

Beyond the group shots in the box, D’Addario’s portfolio included close-ups of the defendants, sometimes whispering to one another and sometimes on the cellblock; and the chief U.S. prosecutor, Robert Jackson, cross-examining and delivering closing arguments.

The photos, and those of his colleagues, were distributed free to newspapers and magazines around the world during the trial and have been published in many history books.

D’Addario was discharged from the Army after the first trial. But Telford Taylor, the lead prosecutor for 12 additional war crimes trials, conducted solely by the United States, hired him as chief photographer for those proceedings.

‘Seinfeld’s’ Uncle Leo dies Los Angeles Times LOS ANGELES — Len Lesser, 88, a veteran character actor best known for his recurring role in the 1990s as Uncle Leo on the hit NBC-TV comedy “Seinfeld,” died Wednesday in Burbank, publicist Laura Stegman said. He had pneumonia and cancer.

Starting in the early 1950s, Lesser built a reputation for mostly playing the heavy in dozens of movies and hundreds of TV appearances while nurturing his love of the theater.

But the bald, hook-nosed actor took his career to a higher plane once he established himself as Jerry Seinfeld’s annoying Uncle Leo with his trade-

mark greeting “Hello!”

Born Dec. 3, 1922, in New York, Lesser received a bachelor’s degree in economics and government from the City College of New York in 1942.

He served in the Army during World War II then returned to New York to study acting.

He moved to Los Angeles in 1954 and began working in television and commercials.

Movie roles followed, including small parts in “Kelly’s Heroes,” “Papillon” and “The Outlaw Josey Wales.”

Besides “Seinfeld,” he also had a recurring role in the CBS sitcom “Everybody Loves Raymond” as Raymond’s father’s friend Garvin.

Ronald Kurz, age 68, living in Palm Desert, CA and Sunriver, OR passed away on Thursday, January 27th while doing what he loved the most, playing tennis on a beautiful sunny Palm Desert morning. Mr. Kurz was born in Santa Monica, CA on June 1, 1942. He attended Los Angeles City Schools and El Camino College. He enlisted in the Navy in 1961 and was stationed in Hawaii. He proudly served on a Geographical Survey Ship and on a Search and Salvage Vessel. He resided for 33 years in the South Bay and worked for Farmer’s Insurance and in Real Estate. He leaves behind his beloved Sara of Palm Desert, CA and Sunriver, OR along with her brothers John (Carol) of Palm Desert, CA, David (Annette) of Bliss, Idaho and Martin of Napa, CA. In addition he leaves behind Sara’s mother (Enid) of Palm Desert, CA, his sister Carol of Sacramento, CA along with many nieces and nephews and many treasured friends. He enjoyed traveling with Sara, good food, fine wine and living at Deep Canyon Tennis Club with the many wonderful and caring people who make up the DCTC community. He also loved living with Sara in Sunriver, OR with the many special people who share that community.

Traveling, tennis, the Trojans and March Madness were his passions. A Celebration of Life will take place in Sunriver, OR at a later date. Donations in Ron’s memory may be made to St. Labre Indian School, Ashland, MT 59004. Ron possessed a kind and gentle soul . . . . may he rest in peace.

ASCOCC Continued from C1 “It’s complicated dealing with different personalities, dealing with the community and the press appropriately,” Simmons said. “ I am one of these pegs that works at the direction of (Lynch) and with the students.”

Simmons said she believes her services are necessary.

“It’s money well spent,” she said. “The fact is that the student body needed representation and needed counsel, and that’s what they got. In the long term, I think it will be very beneficial to the student body.”

In December, Simmons billed $5,850 for three months of public relations work. At the same time, Lynch billed ASCOCC $5,103.50 for his work in October. Lynch billed ASCOCC $13,157 for his work in November and December.

Lynch said initially the meetings with COCC officials and the college counsel, attempting to define the college’s relationship with ASCOCC, seemed to be productive.

In November, Lynch said the groups have discussed setting up a budget committee, complete with representatives from ASCOCC and COCC administrators, which would create a very specific budget each year and be approved by the council and the college board. He said the groups also discussed in-

School levy Continued from C1 In terms of local school districts, such a proposal might be unique in the state. Oregon Department of Education Assistant Superintendent Brian Reeder, who works on school funding issues, said he had never heard of a similar proposal.

Spending the bond savings on operations would not be legal, he said, but asking voters for such a trade would likely be allowed.

With tight budgets, districts are coming up with unique ways to either raise money or trim budgets, he said.

“They (would be) saying our operational needs are a higher priority right now,” Reeder said.

“Are you, the voters, willing to make this switch?”

The Redmond proposal, though, is hamstrung by the

“We’ve made some really significant progress in the last couple weeks and we have substantial agreement on a lot of key directions. We hope within the next two weeks that we would have something that would be a more public document.”

— Alicia Moore, dean of student and enrollment services, Central Oregon Community College creasing the minimum amount of classes a student must be in to participate in ASCOCC from one credit hour to six, and the possibility of setting term limits.

But he said new COCC officials came into the process, and the student newspaper began focusing on the student government’s actions so progress slowed.

Talks back on track “A lot of the effort on my part was to get this thing turned around and back in the direction we were going after the first meeting,” Lynch said. “We got sidetracked quickly.”

complicated interplay of Measures 5 and 50, which limit how much each property can be taxed for education and government. In short, the recent decline in property values has reduced the amount of money the school district could raise from a new levy. In the Redmond case, a levy set at $1 per $1,000 of assessed property value would yield only 20 cents per $1,000, according to Deschutes County Assessor Scot Langton.

Until home values improve, the district would not be able to do much better in terms of a levy. “(The money) just isn’t available,” Langton said.

Judy Newman is president of the union that represents teachers, the Redmond Education Association, and has recently been passing staff budget ideas to the district office. The district, Newman said, has been open to any ideas, which has helped

In recent weeks, however, Lynch said negotiations have improved.

“I can honestly say that with (COCC President Jim Middleton) at the helm, these meetings have been very productive,” he said.

“There appears to be a consensus on all of the key points, and it’s just a question of putting it all together. The issues are now really not so much what is the relationship (between COCC and ASCOCC), but how do we memorialize this?”

Lynch believes the issue will be wrapped up by the end of February.

Dean of Student and Enrollment Services Alicia Moore agreed.

“We’ve made some really significant progress in the last couple weeks, and we have substantial agreement on a lot of key directions,” she said. “We hope within the next two weeks that we would have something that would be a more public document.”

Moore said the final product must be approved by the board.

“We’re still in discussions about what the next appropriate steps are, but it must be approved by the board. We are considering holding feedback forums and eventually a student election to approve an updated constitution.”

her trust that the district staff gives an honest hearing to each proposal.

The levy idea, though, appears to be more fiscally limited than she, or the union member who pitched it, hoped.

“When you say we’d only get $600,000 or so, that surprises me that would be all we get back,” Newman said.

FORT MYERS, Fla. — Jacoby Ellsbury stood in the batting cage, swinging freely from the left side at balls set on a tee and thrown underhanded from 15 feet.

The fleet center fielder of the Boston Red Sox didn’t wince or wail in pain on a sunny Wednesday morning.

Jammin’ at WinterFest

rying to execute the perfect trick on one of the most impressive rail jam setups in the country in front of hundreds of enthusiastic spectators does not seem like an easy task.

But skiers and snowboarders from across the Northwest — many of them from here in Central Oregon — have made a habit out of taking on that very challenge every February in Bend.

The sixth annual Bend WinterFest Rail Jam is scheduled for this Friday and Saturday night in the Old Mill District, and skiers and snowboarders are getting ready to perform before what is sure to be a festive and appreciative crowd.

“It makes you a little nervous and puts some pressure on you,” says Bend’s Jonathon Chandler, who won last year’s WinterFest skier rail jam.

“Once you start getting into a rhythm, it’s a little easier. You don’t really think about anyone else, just what you’re going to do this time and what you’ll do the next time.”

Snowriders compete in a “jam” format, taking as many runs on the rails as time allows. They are judged on overall impression of their tricks.

Skiers are set to compete on Friday night, followed by snowboarders on Saturday night.

MARK MORICAL

“You can go as many times as you want, depending on how fast you hike up,” says ski competitor Conner Bennett, of Bend.

“There’s kind of less pressure that way.”

This year’s setup promises to be the most impressive yet, according to event organizers.

“It’s definitely one of the biggest setups that will go on this year off-mountain,” says Dan Genco, co-founder of Galvanic Design in Portland, which is designing the WinterFest Rail Jam for the first time. “It will be the biggest in the Northwest — maybe in the country. We haven’t heard of anything bigger.”

The rail jam will include a 30-foot “flat-down, flat-down” rail, also known as a triple kink. Other features will include a 23-foot flat box, as well as a 10-foot cannon, which is a box planted at an upward angle to lead the snowriders into the air. Participants have their choice of the three features on each run.

Skiers and snowboarders can start from one of two platforms — one is billed to be four stories high (about 40 feet) and the other, three stories high.

Organizers say that 50 truckloads of snow from Mount Bachelor will be used to build the rail jam setup.

Ellsbury feels good again. The 27-year-old Central Oregon native from Madras said he is 100 percent healthy after he broke five ribs last year and then endured more suffering when his willingness to play while hurt was questioned on talk shows.

No wonder, after being limited to 18 games, he has no interest in talking about his turbulent 2010 season.

“I put it in the past,” Ellsbury said of the criticism. “I’m moving forward, excited about 2011.”

This Feb. 9, 2001, file photo shows NASCAR drivers Dale Earnhardt, left, and his son Dale Jr., standing together during a break in practice, at the Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla. Earnhardt died 10 years ago.

he wins of the father have been, in a sense, visited on the son.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. inherited plenty from the old man — fast reflexes, fearlessness and the biggest tribe in NASCAR — but too many expectations and, so far, too little of his staying power.

He’s won plenty of races, but none the last two years, and only once since switching to Hendrick Motorsports in 2008, a move that was supposed to settle the ques-

tion of whether Earnhardt was overrated or just stuck driving underpowered cars out of loyalty to the old man’s team for too long. Then there’s the matter of yet another anniversary.

Sunday marks 10 years since Dale Earnhardt Sr. died in a last-lap crash at the Daytona 500. The son has tried to honor his legacy in a dozen ways before, even swapping the red paint job on his then-No. 8 car for a likeness of his father’s black No. 3 at Talladega five years ago.

Prep sports • Redmond and Summit skiers win night nordic races: Redmond’s Sarah McKenzie and Summit’s Reitler Hodgert won the girls and boys events Thursday at the Hoodoo Night Races, a 4,000-meter skate cross-country ski race. McKenzie bested Summit’s Keelin Moehl by .19 seconds. Bend’s Mellissa Hubler, Redmond’s Ine Marie Raa and Sisters’ Courtney Blust finished third, fourth and fifth, respectively. In the boys race, Hodgert led a Summit team that produced eight of the top 10 finishers. The Storm’s Nick St. Clair placed second, .12 seconds back of Hodgert, and Summit’s Max Milslagle finished third. This was the final Oregon High School Nordic Organization race of the regular season.

The OHSNO state championships are Feb. 25 and 26 at Mount Bachelor.

• Iowa wrestling standout refuses to face girl: After a standout season in which he went 35-4, Joel Northrup had every reason to dream of winning an Iowa wrestling championship this year, but he gave it all up before his first state tournament match Thursday.

Northrup, a home-schooled sophomore who competes for Linn-Mar High School, said his religious beliefs wouldn’t allow him to wrestle Cassy Herkelman, a pony-tailed freshman from Cedar Falls who is one of the first two girls to qualify for the tournament in its 85year history. Northrup issued a statement through his school expressing his “tremendous” respect for what Herkelman and Ottumwa sophomore Megan Black achieved this season, but he said didn’t feel he had a choice. “Wrestling is a combat sport and it can get violent at times,” Northrup said in a statement released by his high school. “As a matter of conscience and my faith I do not believe that it is appropriate for a boy to engage a girl in this manner. It is unfortunate that I have been placed in a situation not seen in most other high school sports in Iowa.”

Baseball • Bautista, Blue Jays agree to $65M deal: Jose Bautista is ready to prove he’s much more than a oneyear wonder. The Toronto Blue Jays are counting on it.

After leading the major leagues with a team-record 54 home runs last season, Bautista finalized a $65 million, five-year contract with Toronto on Thursday. By making that kind of commitment, the Blue Jays are banking long-term on Bautista, who had never hit more than 16 homers before last year. The 30-year-old Bautista was eligible for arbitration. His hearing was postponed Monday at the request of both parties.

• Tigers’ Cabrera arrested on DUI charge: Detroit Tigers star Miguel Cabrera was arrested late Wednesday on suspicion of drunken driving in Florida, leaving teammates stunned and concerned about the slugging first baseman less than a week into spring training. The 27-year-old Cabrera has struggled with drinking-related problems in the past, but he’s coming off perhaps his best season. He hit .328 with 38 home runs last year and finished second in the American League MVP vote. Cabrera was spotted by a deputy in a car with a smoking engine alongside a road in Fort Pierce. Inside the vehicle, Cabrera smelled of alcohol, had slurred speech and took a swig from a bottle of scotch in front of a deputy, according to the St. Lucie County Sheriff’s Office.

MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL ROUNDUP

NBA SCOREBOARD

No. 12 Arizona holds off Washington State

EASTERN CONFERENCE

The Associated Press TUCSON, Ariz. — When Derrick Williams first injured his pinky, Arizona coach Sean Miller said it would probably take three weeks before he felt comfortable again.

Miller was right and his best player was back.

Williams had his best game since getting his pinky bent backward three weeks ago, scoring 26 points and grabbing eight rebounds to help the 12th-ranked Wildcats overcome Klay Thompson’s big night and beat Washington State 79-70 on Thursday.

“He’s worrying about less now, you can tell he’s feeling better, which makes sense because this is the three-week mark of his injury and what we talked about is this is when he’d start to feel better,” Miller said. “I think big picture-wise, he’s going to be returning back to form.”

Shaking off a slow start, Williams gained confidence as the game went along, finishing seven of 10 from the floor and hitting all 12 of his free throws to help Arizona (22-4, 11-2 Pac10) improve to 14-0 at home.

“Yeah, he played great,” said Arizona guard Kyle Fogg, who had most of his seven assists to Williams.

Arizona had some breakdowns defensively in the second half, particularly on Thompson, to lose most of a 17point lead but still pulled out its seventh straight win.

“That’s the sign of a good team, a veteran team that knows how to win,” Washington State coach Ken Bone said.

“Good teams don’t beat themselves and Arizona didn’t allow that to happen.”

Washington State still almost pulled it out behind Thompson. The Pac-10’s leading scorer had a quiet start just like Williams, then got into a rhythm, scoring his 30 points

Football • NFL, players’ union agree to mediation: Two weeks before a potential lockout, the NFL and its players’ union are asking for help in their stalled negotiations. Both sides agreed Thursday to mediation as they discuss a new collective bargaining agreement. The Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, an independent U.S. government agency, will oversee talks in Washington beginning Friday. After holding separate discussions with representatives from the league and the union, FMCS director George H. Cohen said both sides agreed to have the agency mediate. Mediation is not binding. Negotiations broke down last week, leading to the cancellation of one planned session. The players are expecting the owners to lock them out if the CBA expires on March 3 without a new agreement.

Winter sports • Slovenia’s Maze wins women’s giant slalom: Tina Maze became the first Slovenian to win an alpine skiing world championship title Thursday, riding her advantage from the first run to the gold medal in the women’s giant slalom in Germany. Maze took silver in the giant slalom in her last two major competitions, at the 2009 worlds and the 2010 Olympics, and finally nailed that elusive gold with a controlled second run on the Kandahar course to win by .09 seconds over Federica Brignone of Italy. Tessa Worley of France was third.

Auto racing • Burton, Busch win Daytona qualifiers: Jeff Burton won the second Daytona 500 qualifying race in Florida by beating teammate Clint Bowyer to the finish line.

NASCAR sensation Brad Keselowski also pushed his unheralded older brother, Brian, through the field Thursday and into a transfer spot that earned him his first spot in the Daytona 500. Brian Keselowski, who is two years older than his brother, cried in his car. He’ll make his Sprint Cup debut in NASCAR’s biggest race of the season. Kurt Busch won the first of the qualifying races, which set the field for the Daytona 500.

Cycling • Contador says Algarve win possible: Alberto Contador believes he can still win the Tour of the Algarve despite his fitness being hampered by his fight to escape a doping ban. The Spanish cyclist finished Thursday’s second stage in Portugal in 13th place to trail overall leader Philippe Gilbert of Belgium by 15 seconds. Contador finished the 116-mile stage in the same time as winner John Degenkolb of HTC-Highroad. “I’m not in the same shape like in other years but you can never discount victory,” said Contador, who was racing for new team Saxo Bank-Sunguard.

Basketball • Popovich says Duncan will start All-Star game: The Western Conference needs a starting center for the All-Star game in Los Angeles, and Gregg Popovich says he knows the perfect person for the job. The San Antonio coach selected Spurs star Tim Duncan to replace Yao Ming in the lineup for Sunday’s game at Staples Center, staying in his own locker room instead of picking Clippers star Blake Griffin playing in his home arena or Timberwolves double-double machine Kevin Love. Griffin, Love and Mavericks star Dirk Nowitzki all have better numbers than Duncan, who is averaging a career-low 13.4 points and 9.2 rebounds. But San Antonio (46-10) has the NBA’s best record.

GOLF ROUNDUP

Nine players tied for lead at Riviera The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — Ten years after Robert Allenby won a six-man playoff at Riviera, he was part of a nine-way tie for the lead Thursday in the Northern Trust Open.

Allenby kept it simple on a gorgeous day along Sunset Boulevard with a 4-under 67 that turned out to be enough for a share of the lead when former Ryder Cup captain Corey Pavin faltered late.

It was the highest score to lead after one round at Riviera in 15 years.

Also atop the leaderboard when play was suspended by darkness were John Senden, Martin Laird, Spencer Levin, Aaron Baddeley, Ben Martin, Bill Haas, Carl Pettersson and J.B. Holmes. Peter Tomasulo could join them if he makes a 12-foot birdie putt on the 18th hole when he resumes his round this morning. As it is, the PGA Tour said nine players tied for the lead were the most after any round since it began keeping records in 1970.

Several stories attracted attention in the first round.

Dustin Johnson’s caddie thought his tee time was 40 minutes later than it really was, so Johnson was on the practice range in the middle of his warm-up routine when he was supposed to be high on the hill on the first tee. Johnson was penalized two shots, and nearly was disquali-

fied. Players have five minutes to get to the tee, and Johnson got their with 6 seconds to spare.

He wound up with a 73.

Then came the retro movement of Pavin and Fred Couples, who combined to win this tournament four times during a six-year stretch in the early 1990s. Couples, whose back is in such bad shape that he’s going for treatment next week, made three straight birdies at the turn and shot a 68. Pavin had a 69.

Phil Mickelson got off to a great start with birdies on his opening two holes, only to look suspect with a few irons and a few putts. He wound up with a 71.

Also on Thursday: Kim shoots 63 at LPGA Thailand PATTAYA, Thailand — South Korea’s InKyung Kim tied a course record with a 9-underpar 63 to take the lead after the first round of the season-opening LPGA Thailand. Kim, ranked No. 7, started with a birdie and went on to pick up nine more. Top-ranked Yani Tseng and Juli Inkster each shot 66 and were three shots behind Kim. Derksen leads Avantha Masters NEW DELHI — Robert-Jan Derksen shot a 6under 66 to take the lead in the suspended first round of the Avantha Masters. The 37-year-old Dutchman leads Julio Zapata and Mark Foster by one stroke.

NHL ROUNDUP

Wings score six, slow down Lightning The Associated Press TAMPA, Fla. — Pavel Datsyuk scored twice, Danny Cleary had a goal and two assists and the Detroit Red Wings beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 6-2 on Thursday night.

Niklas Kronwall, Justin Abdelkader and Darren Helm also scored for the Red Wings, who have won three in a row and seven of 11.

Jimmy Howard made 38 saves.

Tampa Bay got goals from Victor Hedman and Steve Downie. The Lightning are 5-3-1 during a 12-game homestand.

NBA ROUNDUP

Rose scores 42, Bulls beat Spurs The Associated Press CHICAGO — Derrick Rose grabbed the microphone and thanked the fans for making him Chicago’s first All-Star starter since Michael Jordan in 1998. Then he went out and showed why they made a wise decision.

Rose had a career-high 42 points and the Bulls headed into the break with an impressive 109-99 victory over the NBA-leading San Antonio Spurs on Thursday night.

Luol Deng had 19 points and Carlos Boozer finished with 15 for Chicago, which shot 54 percent in its fourth consecutive win. The Bulls improved to 3816 after winning 41 games last season.

“We have a lot of confidence right now, knowing we can beat some of the best teams in the NBA,” Rose said. “We just have to keep it going.”

Once again hearing “M-V-P! M-V-P!” chants, Rose was at his best when San Antonio challenged Chicago in the fourth quarter. He had 13 points in the final period, answering Spurs baskets with acrobatic drives and long jumpers.

“What’s great about him is that he seems to love the pressure,” San Antonio coach Gregg Popovich said. “He loves putting the team on his back so to speak.”

Rose’s long jumper as the shot clock expired with 3:21 left gave Chicago a 101-90 lead and took the steam out of one San Antonio rally. He also finished with eight assists and five rebounds.

“That was some performance,” Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau said. “It was great leadership.”

Tony Parker scored 26 points and All-Star Manu Ginobili added 16 for San Antonio, which had won six of seven. Reserve Gary Neal made four threepointers and finished with 16 points.

“We were not having our best defensive night,” Ginobili said. “We didn’t move the ball well. We didn’t penetrate and kick the way we usually do.”

Chicago led 83-75 after three quarters and grabbed control early in the fourth. Ronnie Brewer kickstarted an 11-2 run with a dunk and finished it off with a jumper that made it 94-80 with 8:08 remaining.

The Spurs trailed for much of the night in the finale of their annual rodeo road trip but challenged Chicago with several bursts. Rose and the Bulls had an answer each time while improving to 25-4 at home in their best start at the United Center since 199798 championship team won 25 of its first 27 home games.

D4 Friday, February 18, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

Jammin’ Continued from D1 “This is our biggest build we’ve ever done,” Genco claims.

Galvanic is most known for its Campus Rail Jam Tour, which hosts rail jams at colleges across the United States.

Along with the big features comes a big payout to winners.

In the men’s competition, ski and snowboard winners will receive $1,500 each. For the women, winners will receive prizes of ski and snowboard gear.

Chandler, a 17-year-old senior at Bend’s Summit High School, took home a winner’s share last year and bought a new camera.

“It was pretty incredible,” Chandler says. “I’ve never really won so much money before. It was kind of a lot.”

Chandler says he likes competing in rail jams because, unlike at many halfpipe and slopestyle contests, the participants are allowed more than just two runs.

“If you screw up one thing it’s not the end of the world,” Chandler says. “You have several opportunities to try it.”

Already this season, Bennett, who is also a Summit High senior, has won both the Jam on the Hill at Central Oregon Community College and the Bachelor Night Rail Jam ski divisions. He finished second to Chandler at the WinterFest Rail Jam last year.

Bennett says he gets “pumped up” by the big and boisterous WinterFest crowds, but he manages to stay focused by pretending that he’s just practicing in the terrain part at Mt. Bachelor.

Earnhardt Continued from D1 It was the same weekend, no less, that Earnhardt Sr. was enshrined in the hall of fame there.

None of them has made much of a difference.

That explained, in part, Junior’s reluctance at the start of the week to talk about what a win in the sport’s Super Bowl this Sunday would mean.

“I think I’ve become more reserved, maybe due to how I’ve seen me be judged or analyzed.

I’ve sort of changed my outward approach a little bit toward everybody,” Earnhardt said Wednesday. “But I’m telling you, if I can get back to the racetrack and I can win a race and run well, it’ll get a whole lot easier.”

The problem would be Earnhardt’s alone, except for this: The fate of no other pro sport depends so much on an athlete who isn’t close to being the best in his game.

Every time Dale Sr.’s second son and namesake has won, the needle on the TV ratings box rocks. So many people want Earnhardt to win, starting with

Ellsbury Continued from D1 But was it unfair of others to question his toughness when only he knew how he really felt?

“I’m moving on,” Ellsbury repeated. “Moving on, 2011.”

Racing on may be more like it.

He set a club record with 70 stolen bases in 2009. Now he is joined by left-fielder Carl Crawford, who swiped 60 bases that year and 47 last year before leaving Tampa Bay for Boston as a free agent.

Ellsbury would not predict which of the two would steal more bases this year, but, “Who’s faster? I wouldn’t bet against myself,” he said with a smile.

That expression was rarely seen last year, when Ellsbury may have had more MRIs or CT scans than runs batted in (five).

He was not thrilled when the Red Sox decided before the 2010 season to move him to left field after acquiring Mike Cameron to play center. Then, on April 11, Ellsbury broke his ribs in his sixth game when he and Boston third baseman Adrian Beltre collided while chasing a ball in short left field.

Ellsbury’s first comeback ended on May 24 after just three games, again because of fractured ribs. He returned on Aug. 5 and lasted just nine games before re-injuring ribs on the left side in a collision at first base with Texas Rangers pitcher Tommy Hunter.

For the rest of the season, Red Sox fans wondered what was taking Ellsbury so long to return.

“It was awkward, but it’s all just noise and meaningless,” Boston general manager Theo Epstein said Wednesday. “The bottom line is everyone was trying to find solutions. He was try-

SKIING AND SNOWBOARDING

Rob Kerr / The Bulletin

Mt. Bachelor park manager Hames Ellerbe, 27, welds a rail Thursday afternoon during construction of the WinterFest Rail Jam structure in Bend’s Old Mill District.

“A lot of the crowd is friends and people I know in Bend,” Bennett says. “It’s really fun. It gives you a lot of motivation.

“It’s not something you can win easily. Everybody kills it, so if you do win it feels really good.”

Bennett says he believes snowboarders typically have more of a variety of tricks than skiers, but he also notes that skiers can stand out when they land the more difficult maneuvers.

“There’s really technical tricks that not many people can do (in

ski rail jams) but are really cool if you can,” Bennett says.

He adds that he has been working on his “pretzels,” tricks during which he spins one way onto a rail and the other way off the rail.

Bend’s Ashley Thornton, 27, finished second in the WinterFest Rail Jam women’s snowboarding division last year. She has not taken part in many rail jams this season, instead choosing to “chase the powder” and take part in some big-mountain events.

Thornton travels often for

NASCAR boss Brian France and extending all the way down to the garage mechanics who revere the old man and genuinely like the son, that his every move is plumbed for some deeper meaning. So naturally, when he won the pole position last weekend, the conspiracy theorists went to work.

Old-timers still talk about the day an aging Richard Petty finally got his 200th NASCAR career win — on July 4, 1984, with President Reagan in the stands — as though it were ordained from on high. And it might have been. Petty, 47 at the time, never picked up No. 201, despite eight more years spent trying.

Then there was the unexpected boost from Las Vegas bookmakers, who tabbed Earnhardt at 10-1 to win, a curious choice since his Hendrick teammate Jimmie Johnson, who’s won five season championships in a row, came in at only 12-1. But Earnhardt crashed his pole-winning car in practice Wednesday, which squashed the conspiracy talk and most likely his chances of winning.

Peel back all the layers of extra attention and what you’re

left with is a driver low on confidence. The move to Hendrick three years ago gave Earnhardt access to better equipment, but it also meant taking a backseat to the team’s two other stars — Johnson and Jeff Gordon — at least until his resume is as glossy as theirs.

“He’s just under the microscope every minute,” team owner Rick Hendrick said earlier this week.

“I can’t tell you how I would handle what he’s trying to handle, and that is carry on his father’s name, have a business that he takes care of, make everybody happy, and the sport needs him to do well. He’s getting it from everywhere. He has no safe zone.”

The wear and tear has become more apparent as the week wears on. After the crash trashed his front-line car, Earnhardt gloomily questioned why he was out practicing. After Thursday’s qualifying race, nearly all of which Earnhardt spent stuck in the middle of the pack, he complained about the lack of a partner to push him around the track — a necessity for anybody hoping to win on the faster, recently repaved surface at Daytona International Speedway.

Then he pointed yet another fin-

ing to get back on the field, we were trying to get him back on the field, and his injuries were severe enough that that wasn’t possible.”

It is now.

Manager Terry Francona said there are no limitations on what Ellsbury can do in spring training. And Ellsbury said he will have no hesitancy if he has to dive for a fly ball or slide headfirst into a base.

“I’ll be able to play with natural aggressiveness, just like I’ve always played,” he said. “I’m not worried at all. It’s not like I’m coming off of major surgery or anything like that. If anything, (the ribs) should be stronger than they were. Any time you break something and let it heal, they’ll be stronger.”

Beltre is gone now, allowed to leave as a free agent for Texas.

“He’ll definitely be missed,” Ellsbury said with a diplomatic grin. “He’s a good teammate and I saw him this offseason, but I wish him the best.”

This season, the biggest danger could come from Crawford.

With the two speedsters racing for balls hit into left-center field, more collisions are possible.

“There’ll definitely be communication,” Ellsbury said. “It’ll take us some time to get used to.”

With Crawford’s ability to cover more ground than recent Boston left fielders Manny Ramirez and Jason Bay, Ellsbury can shade more toward J.D. Drew in right field to protect the deep triangle just on the right-field side of straightaway center at Boston’s Fenway Park.

“I think J.D. gets overlooked in right field because of those two (Ellsbury and Crawford),” starting left-hander Jon Lester said.

“He’s a pretty good outfielder as well. I don’t imagine there’s going to be a lot of fly balls that find green grass out there.”

The addition of Crawford and first baseman Adrian Gonzalez drew the most attention in the offseason, but the return of Kevin Youkilis and Dustin Pedroia, sidelined for extended periods with serious injuries, gives the Red Sox a potent batting lineup.

Francona would like Ellsbury to lead off that lineup. And if he gets on base, the pitcher will have to watch him closely rather than focus only on the batter.

“You have a guy that can change a game with his legs,” Francona said. “I don’t know why he would dwell on his ribs being broken. It’s a fresh start.

He feels healthy.”

Francona has not announced his lineup, but former American League rookie of the year and MVP Pedroia could bat second now that his broken foot has healed.

“He brings a ton to our team,” Pedroia said of Ellsbury. “It’s going to be fun to watch him and Carl out there running and getting on base and doing their thing.”

Ellsbury did his thing in his first three seasons with the Red Sox, hitting .353 in 116 at bats in 2007 and then .280 and .301 in his first two full seasons. He already has 136 stolen bases, which ranks him fifth in team history. But he hit just .192 and stole seven bases last year.

“I’ve just got to be myself, play my game,” he said. “As long as I do what I’m capable of doing, things will work out perfect.”

Even though 2010 was a lost season for Ellsbury, the Red Sox gave him a $2.4 million, one-year contract to avoid arbitration, a nearly fivefold increase over his $496,500 salary last year.

“We all feel like last year was a blip and we have him as one of our core, young players entering his prime,” Epstein said. “He’s going to be here for a long time.”

snowboard contests, but she likes to compete in her hometown and says she feeds off the WinterFest crowd.

“I have friends and family watching,” Thornton says. “It’s just a cool environment to hang out in.

I’ve got a lot of friends and people that don’t even snowboard that can come hang out and watch, so that’s nice.”

ger at the car.

“We need to find a little more speed on the car. Guys are able to run a little bit longer than we are without swapping,” Earnhardt said. “We need to find a little better deal on the cooling.”

No doubt.

Maybe not this week, but sometime soon, Earnhardt is going to have to decide how much longer he can tolerate being stuck in his father’s shadow. Because it isn’t just a reminder of where he came from, but how much further he still has to go.

you’re one tough art critic

Elisabeth Hanff holds one of her paintings at her home in Washington on Jan. 20. Jessica Hanff, Elisabeth’s mother, throws most of her daughter’s work in the trash can rather than hoard the drawings, only saving exceptional work.

Finding calm in the chaos of kids’ artwork

By Michael Tortorello New York Times News Service

fter careful consideration, Jessica Hanff has found the ideal spot for the art that her 4-yearold daughter, Elisabeth, brings home from preschool: the trash can.

“We’re getting two to four pieces of crayon drawing a day,” said Hanff, a 36-year-old operations manager for an academic research institute. On a recent Tuesday, Hanff began sorting through a few dozen of Elisabeth’s drawings, stacked in the mudroom of the family’s Washington home.

“These are printouts off the computer, colored in,” she said. “C is for Cat! And she’s scribbled some things on it. This is Dora the Explorer.”

Hanff stopped to observe the purplish rings that Elisabeth had marked around Dora’s eyes. “It looks like someone slapped her in the face.

She’s got these big shiners.”

Hanff is always on the lookout for “exceptional” drawings. But this entire batch would soon be archived in the rubbish bin.

“I’m not sentimental about those at all,” Hanff said. “It’s my job to avoid raising a hoarder, and I’m leading by example.”

But Elisabeth has been known to fish her drawings out of the trash and present them to her mother. “I’ll say, ‘Oh, thank you,’ ” Hanff said. “We’ll have a discussion. I’m not callous. But once she turns away, often I’ll toss it out again.”

Mountain View High School senior Danny Spencer, 18, says he can’t follow a recipe.

“If you put a recipe in front of me,” he said, “I have to put my own spin on it.”

Which is interesting, considering that Danny is a rising star in his high school culinary class, whose skills have landed him a part-time job at the restaurant 900 Wall in downtown Bend.

Originally from Boise, Idaho, Danny says he became interested in cooking when he was in seventh grade. Mostly because his parents had enrolled him in cooking classes designed for children. Danny also attributes his passion for cooking to his grandmother, Judi Cameron, and his mother, Leslie Spencer, who inspired him with delicious dishes they made while he was growing up.

“I used to make these things my mom would call ‘creations,’ ” said Danny. “Sometimes they would look good and taste bad.

Other times, they would look bad and taste good. I was just experimenting all the time with different flavor profiles.”

The enthusiastic young chef has taken culinary classes all four years of high school. Last summer, he applied for an apprenticeship at 900 Wall and worked there in the mornings as a prep chef.

In September, Danny landed a part-time job at the restaurant, and now he does evening preparation work, including plating oysters and shrimp.

Reclaim your refrigerator

By Michael Tortorello New York Times News Service

Why hang children’s art on the refrigerator door? Because it’s there.

And as an exhibition venue, it’s better than nothing.

“Art is made to be seen,” said David Burton, a professor of art education at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond. “It’s sort of like food: Why would you go through the trouble of cooking a whole meal and then not eat it?”

Yet just because a work of art was created by a toddler, that doesn’t mean it has to look like it was hung by one.

For displaying pictures on the wall, Burton likes Clearmount ZigZag Hangers. These roughly 2-by-2-inch squares adhere to the back of a picture.

String some fishing line through the hole in the plastic hanger or mount it on a pushpin. The ZigZag claims to be self-leveling and to hold two pounds.

And though it may not be officially endorsed by the Association of Art Museum Curators, Burton recommends festive paper mats and two-sided foam Mounting Tape, by Scotch. “I think most parents can figure it out,” Burton said.

Many couples manage to frame a special piece of their child’s art — say, a detailed survey of pre-modern fairy couture. Yet a few months later, the avant-garde of the second grade has moved on to ballerinas. For this, the Li’l Davinci Art Cabinetwas invented. Try to get past the name.

‘Idol’ judges reign, but Piers bores

DEAR ABBY their mistakes. When they’re ready to assume responsibility for their actions, they’ll do what other adults who are in this kind of hot water do: They will seek financial or psychological counseling.

Dear Abby: My 24-year-old daughter, “Evy,” is falling to the rocky bottom. She has taken advantage of everyone in our family.

She thinks she’s the victim instead of realizing she is the problem.

She’s planning to marry “Dave,” a man she has known for only six months. She refuses to consider his past criminal record of domestic abuse. Abby, this man has several children, one of whom he does not acknowledge. Am I wrong to be involved in this wedding? I feel it would be a mistake to be “supportive” when I’m totally against it.

Dave has pushed her already, and I know what lies ahead for her if she goes through with this marriage.

— To Be or Not To Be … The Mother of the Bride Dear T.B. Or N.T.B.: You will always be your daughter’s mother, but you don’t have to bless this marriage with your presence. Some people have to learn their lessons the hard way, and your daughter appears to be one of them. She needs to understand that while you do not approve of Dave, you love her. Keep the lines of communication open because she is going to need you in the future.

‘Piers Morgan Tonight’

The Associated Press ile photo

Piers Morgan’s new show on CNN has fallen in the ratings over the course of its first month. Morgan took over Larry King’s spot Jan. 17.

But then he closes his eyes and listens, really listens, to the contestants. The man takes this stuff seriously, and his enthusiasm is contagious.

Lopez, too, has carved herself a comfortable niche. She does heart and empathy as well as Paula Abdul ever did, without the loopy incoherence, and just might beat Tyler for the as yet unfilled arbiter role left vacant by Cowell. The question of which judge will emerge more equal than the others could prove as compelling a competition as anything onstage.

Then there’s Randy Jackson.

It’s hard not to feel a little sympathy for the show’s original No. 3 as he maneuvers to find a new place in the hierarchy. His attempts at Simonesque sarcasm

Unlike “American Idol,” CNN isn’t having much luck with its latest replacement. “Piers Morgan Tonight,” now a month into its run in the 9 p.m. weeknight spot long held by Larry King, is losing viewers because, to put it as bluntly as the “America’s Got Talent” judge himself might, it’s too often a bore.

More than 2 million viewers watched Morgan’s opening night on Jan. 17, a figure boosted by the presence of inaugural guest Oprah Winfrey. By late January, viewership was slipping to fewer

A month into the season that doubters predicted could end the reign of TV juggernaut “American Idol,” new judges Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez have done more than win over skeptics. They’ve made “American Idol” fun again.

That the rock star and the pop singer could vanquish memories of judges Kara DioGuardi and Ellen DeGeneres should surprise nobody. That they’ve nearly done the same for the presumably irreplaceable Simon Cowell is a small miracle.

In its 10th season, “Idol” remains a ratings powerhouse, typically grabbing more than 20 million viewers a night. Still, several seasons of mediocre winners, last year’s misguided switch to a four-judge panel and a timid performance by DeGeneres left it looking like a warhorse past its prime.

Enter Tyler, the longtime Aerosmith frontman who bashed out an impromptu drum solo during an unplanned pause in the competition. Who better than a rock star to get the party restarted?

With his streaked tresses, jangling bracelets, comically big mouth and cheekbones so unnaturally taut they make a mockery of conventional rockstar indifference, Tyler is a new thing on the prime-time stage: a louche, semi-reformed reprobate rock god who seems to have stumbled into the wrong studio.

Dear Abby: I am a very conservative woman. I don’t drink, dance, wear makeup or pants. I enjoy the company of friends despite our differences and thought they enjoyed mine. On our most recent outing, however, they mocked my religious jewelry, commented on my “lack of fashion,” and made me feel guilty for not wanting to stay out late.

Despite this, they are great friends and would help me at the drop of a hat. I don’t bring up their being overweight, or that I think some of the clothes they wear are ugly. I wish they would accept me for who I am.

I am considering not going out with them the next time they ask, but I don’t really want it to come to that. Any suggestions?

— Just an Old-fashioned Girl Dear Old-fashioned: Just this: It’s time for you to start cultivating relationships with people whose values are more like your own.

The friends you have described may be lovely, but their comments were out of line and folks are known by the company they keep.

Dear Abby: Two of my children, ages 28 and 30 and college-educated, have what they call “bill paying anxiety.” It doesn’t matter if they have the money or not, they find it difficult to pay their bills. They have both lost their licenses for not paying traffic tickets, but that hasn’t taught either one of them a lesson. Any advice on how to help them?

— Anxious Mom in Washington Dear Mom: How long have those two been out from under your roof? Did you pay all their expenses until recently? Your “children” aren’t children anymore. They have reached an age when they must now learn from

than 500,000. CNN reportedly has hired Barbara Walters’ former booker to land better guests.

Morgan’s cozy treatment of Winfrey was understandable. She is, after all, Oprah Winfrey. Then he showed similar deference to some self-proclaimed exorcist or the Bravo channel’s newly appointed love guru. A new strategy is all but demanded. The host occasionally shows flashes of the bite that earned his reputation as a droller Simon Cowell.

“Why not just get over it?” he asked the Winklevoss twins about their battle with Facebook cofounder Mark Zuckerberg. He was no doubt speaking for anyone who saw “The Social Network.”

More often he seems less Cowell than cowed.

Display Continued from E1 The inch-deep case, with its swinging glass door, stores up to 50 sheets of paper behind the picture in front. And it comes in a variety of sizes and finishes.

Jessie Randall, 34, a shoe designer in Park Slope, Brooklyn, uses the Li’l Davinci to cycle through the drawings that her twins, Casper and Liam, 3 1/2, bring home from preschool. It’s the kind of classroom where “the art generated is more expressive than literal,” Randall said in an e-mail. In other words, “I am not exactly sure what the drawings are of.”

Alternately, a maximalist parent could hang all 50 pieces at once with the Ikea Dignitet system, a kind of peg-and-wire contraption with sliding metal clips.

(Like a clothesline with brushedsteel mounting brackets.)

One fan of the Dignitet is Jessica Johnson, 33, of Snoqualmie, Wash., a former elementary school teacher. Johnson is now a major collector of the prominent “puffy picture” artist Charlie Johnson (who happens to be her 3-year-old son). He works mostly in shaving cream and tempura. But his more commercial pieces employ glitter, and plenty of it.

The Dignitet is “designed for hanging curtains,” Johnson said by e-mail. “But since you adjust the length of wire yourself, you can use it on a really wide wall, as we did, or you could have several short rows at the end of a hallway.”

What if there was a way to stack a child’s art in one tidy pile and yet display it at the same time? Apparently, this inven-

tion already exists. It is called a coffee-table book. Arlene Kriv of Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, reports that she had a handsome one printed through blurb.com for $31.95.

Kriv, 49, an arts marketer, ordered a four-color hardcover book that she titled “Works on Paper.” It is 8-by-10-inches and has 32 pages.

Kriv’s 7-year-old son, Eli Jort, painted the book’s abstract images of trees, flowers and ships at sea. But truth be told, it is Kriv who did the better part of the labor.

Later, she laid out the pages with a Blurb software download, paying special attention to details like the caption font.

“My son just produced some amazing artwork before the age of 5 — after that, he dropped off,” Kriv said.

“He still draws,” she added. But Eli has moved on to sketching battle-axes and portraits of Boba Fett, the bounty hunter from “Star Wars.”

Kriv is glad she has the book.

Get A Taste For Food, Home & Garden Every Tuesday In AT HOME

Rating: PG-13 for intense sequences of violence and action, and for language What it’s about: Good-looking teens who live among us were the “gifted” on their home planet, and those who destroyed that planet are hunting them here on Earth.

The kid attractor factor: Aliens and ray guns and beasts and Alex Pettyfer and that cute blonde from “Glee” Good lessons/bad lessons: Don’t take stupid risks with your life, you’re needed “for a higher purpose.”

Violence: Plenty of fistfights and dagger duels but not much blood Language: Maybe six swear words, not the “big” ones though Sex: Hot teens making googoo eyes at one another Drugs: None Parents’ advisory: This actionadventure is sort of a teen sci-fi “Twilight” without the threat of sex, suitable for 11 and older.

‘Justin Bieber: Never Say Never’ Rating: G What it’s about: Home movies, concert footage and backstage moments show us what it’s like to be Justin Bieber.

The kid attractor factor: Justin Bieber in all his mop-topped glory Good lessons/bad lessons: “Follow your dreams” and being a teen idol isn’t all fun and concerts Violence: Slap fights, all in good clean fun Language: Disney clean Sex: Justin topless, tossing his hair. As close as this movie gets to “sex.”

Drugs: Not a hint Parents’ advisory: Suitable for all ages; intended for girls 1016, who are the only ones who can hear those high-pitched screams.

‘Gnomeo & Juliet’ Rating: G What it’s about: English garden gnomes from neighboring homes feud until a young couple from opposing sides fall in love.

The kid attractor factor: Animated garden gnomes.

And Shakespeare. Kids love Shakespeare.

Good lessons/bad lessons: “It’s doomed. That’s the best kind of romance.”

Violence: Gnomes don’t die.

They’re shattered.

Language: “Let’s go kick some grass.”

Sex: A smooch long-delayed.

Drugs: None.

Parents’ advisory: OK for all ages. Adults who know their Shakespeare and their Elton John songs (he produced it and did the score) will be amused.

Kids are there for the gnomes.

‘The Eagle’ Rating: PG-13 for battle sequences and some disturbing images.

What it’s about: The son of a missing legion commander seeks his father’s eagle standard.

The kid attractor factor: Channing Tatum in a skirt, Roman battles with barbarians.

Good lessons/bad lessons: “No man should ever have to beg for his life.”

Violence: Plentiful, with Roman Empire surgery, but not overly gory.

Language: Mild profanity — and not much of it.

Sex: None.

Drugs: A little wine.

Parents’ advisory: There isn’t a female character in it, so you could mark this violent period piece as “for teenage boys only.”

OK for 10 and older.

‘The Green Hornet’ Rating: PG-13 for sequences of violent action, language, sensuality and drug content What it’s about: A hard-partying heir to a newspaper fortune, on a goof, decides to become a crime fighter and enlists his martial-arts and gadget-whiz chauffeur as a sidekick.

The kid attractor factor: Seth Rogen and lots of explosions, shootouts and car chases Good lessons/bad lessons: “Trying doesn’t matter when you always fail.”

Violence: Shootings, crushings, dismemberments, etc.

Language: Lots of profanity, including almost everything but the F-bomb.

Sex: Nubile females are ogled.

Drugs: Drunk scenes, meth labs.

Parents’ advisory: This rude and crude fanboy-oriented, maskedhero movie is a pretty severe test of the limits of PG-13, suitable for 13 and older, but barely.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, Feb. 18, 2011: This year, try a new approach, and see what happens. Let go of rigidity; flow with events and situations. Travel, education and dealing with foreigners might not flow as well as in the past.

If you are single, your love life could become very intense, more so than you can imagine. If you are attached, the two of you invent a new tango as you up the love temperature.

Discussions succeed on a oneon-one level. VIRGO understands you far better than you know.

A baby born today, Feb. 18, 2011, before 1:39 a.m. is an Aquarius, Moon in Leo. If born between that time and 4:25 p.m., the baby will be an Aquarius Sun, Moon in Virgo. Finally, after 4:25 P.M., look to Pisces Sun with a Moon in Virgo. All times are Pacific.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Your enthusiasm might be waning. Fatigue and a need for closer scrutiny of details might drag you down. Schedule a late lunch.

Take off afterward. Know when you are too worn out to do anything more. Tonight: Not to be found.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Your ability to grasp the many different implications of a situation comes into play in exploring

solutions. Remain light no matter what new information heads your way.

Brainstorm away. Tonight: Transform your creative energy into fun.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH You swing into weekend mode a little too soon. Consider heading home early; bring some extra work with you. No matter what you do, you are simply not in the mood to work.

Tonight: Get some extra R and R. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH How you deal with someone and the choices you make could change with new information coming in. A family or domestic matter might need to be put on hold. Another person demonstrates his or her caring in a conversation.

Tonight: Visit with friends.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHH See what energizes a situation. Know when to put a halt to spending, especially if it is stressing your budget. You discover that this is a point of agreement no matter which way you go. Tonight: Let someone else treat for a change.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Maintain your visibility, and don’t ignore a financial issue.

Someone’s impressions certainly aren’t the same as yours. Your ability to come up with a solution that works for everyone emerges. Funnel more creativity into your personal life, too.

Tonight: With a favorite person.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HH Willingly back off from a hassle.

Let others resolve it, as whatever you suggest will not be “right” anyway.

Make plans on the phone, talk to a buddy and simply use the extra private time well. Take some much-needed personal time. Tonight: Vanish happily.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Others say what they think and feel. In fact, not responding and just letting another person jabber could be most informative. You’ll learn much more that way than by challenging another person’s thoughts and ideas.

A meeting could be very important.

Tonight: Where the action is.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH Pressure builds, as lastminute details tumble into your lap.

Stop and take a deep breath. You know you can handle whatever heads your way. Others respect your need for completion. Just don’t let them take advantage of it.

Tonight: Finally enjoying yourself.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Keep reaching out for others. You might not be on the right path, but you certainly are trying to find the best way to go. Note when your thought process becomes rigid. Let go of that limitation. It is easier than you might think. Tonight: Take off ASAP. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Someone would like to play his or her hand without interference.

You really don’t have much to lose.

Maintain a say in financial decisions.

A personal relationship could warm up as a result. Tonight: Let someone else make the first move.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Realize what is happening with a child or loved one. If you pull away mentally, you will get a better sense of the conflict surrounding this person. Emphasize your goals. Look to the long-term in a meeting. Others might be a little frivolous. Tonight: Not alone.

Danny

Danny Spencer works on preparing a meal during his culinary class last week at Mountain View High School. Danny also has been working at Bend restaurant 900 Wall to spice up his résumé.

Continued from E1 Danny says one of his biggest achievements was learning how to truss a chicken, which he says he was able to get down after his mentor and boss, Executive Chef Cliff Eslinger, made him practice often.

“I can truss a chicken now with my eyes closed,” said Danny. “I’ve just become so accustomed to it. I don’t even have to think about it now.”

Wayne Yeatman, Danny’s culinary teacher at Mountain View, says he’ll always remember Danny’s first day of school after his apprenticeship.

“His eyes were brighter than I’d ever seen them before,” said Yeatman. “Over the summer, he’d changed from being this meek kid to one with confidence and opinions.”

Ryan Brennecke The Bulletin

Art Continued from E1 Elisabeth’s creative work, it should be noted, can be found all over the house. (At this point, her 2-year-old sister, Charlotte, doesn’t claim as much wall space.) Elisabeth started embroidering last year. And her grandmother gave her a grown-up watercolor set. In a vaguely Dadaist spirit, Elisabeth used a floret of broccoli to paint the pointillist color study that hangs in her bedroom.

“I do think my kids are awesome,” Hanff said. “I tell them how great they are. But we’re not going to build an addition on the back for every piece of crayon art they’ve ever done.”

We all want our children to be creative. But do they have to be so prolific? Once children enter nursery school, every day produces another masterpiece.

Presidents Day brings a cotton ball wig; Purim means a beanbox rattle.

Forget about organizing the pieces in a storage bin. This is a job for a shipping container.

All this art may or may not tell us something about the nature of the child. But it reveals plenty about the parents. Do they lavish praise on every piece or barely glance up from the iPhone? Do they frame art for the grandparents or turn it into wrapping paper? In the plainest sense, is the parent a keeper or a chucker?

No one has quantified just how much art children create at school, said David Burton, a professor of art education at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond. But having worked in the field for more than 40 years, Burton refutes the notion that present-day parents have coddled and attaboy-ed their children into overproducing.

Art classrooms of the 1960s and ’70s followed “a philosophy of make and take,” Burton said. That is, at the end of every 40-minute class, an art project would be ready for Mom and Dad. Art educators today have been trained to encourage a deeper exploration of material,

process and theory.

At the same time, Burton said, tots now start scribbling with ergonomic crayons by the age of 18 months: “Years and years ago, people — even art educators — believed that children would just waste materials when they were really toddlers.”

Art can be valuable to the development of even the youngest children, Burton said. Drawing, for instance, helps build cognitive and fine-motor skills. And it teaches children to observe and discriminate when it comes to color, shape and form. Young children can sometimes draw emotions that go beyond their words, he added.

But how much does a 4-yearold boy really care about his 50th portrait of Thomas the Tank Engine? “Once they’re through with it, they may lose interest in it very quickly,” Burton said. “The process is more important than the product for the child.”

Still, the curator of the refrigerator door can’t be too ruthless. When Dad de-accessions a new finger painting overnight, Burton said, “the child quickly learns that this art that they’re making is very ephemeral.” In other words, worthless.

Tracy Miller, a 44-year-old mother of two, hardly needs to be sold on the value of art. She is a painter herself. The basement studio of her family’s 1,400-

square-foot row house in Brooklyn is stuffed with 6-by-6-foot canvases.

Yet however challenging it can be to edit her own work, Miller finds it even harder to pare down the yield of her kindergartner, Josie. Miller has framed the watercolors Josie made of her dearest stuffed animals. She stores the pieces that Josie has crafted on buck-a-page art paper, but the collection is reaching unmanageable levels.

“I don’t know what we’re going to do with it,” Miller said.

Some 20 paper grocery bags full of Josie’s art already occupy the storage room, the basement and the closet.

Miller has heard of mothers who document their children’s art with a digital camera or a scanner, then shed the bulky originals.

Creating the anthology In this fashion, Burton conceded, “You could save every scrap of paper that the child ever made.” But don’t. A better plan, he said, is to store a child’s art in two boxes.

The first one is a temporary file for recent creations. The second is a kind of permanent vault, which holds a few selected works, spanning the course of 5 years to 10 years. Each piece can include a makeshift museum

Danny plans to go to Central Oregon Community College next year while he continues to work at 900 Wall. After a year, he hopes to have saved enough money to go to a culinary school in California. Danny says he dreams of living in France and learn about French cooking, and he hopes to own his own restaurant in California.

“I won’t stop,” said Danny. “I really want to make it in the restaurant industry, and one day I want to have my own restaurant that’s true to me.”

The aspiring chef describes himself as, above everything else, determined.

“If someone asks me a question and I don’t know the answer, I’m compelled to find out,” said Danny. “I go home and look it up because I have to know.”

Danny says he attributes his

determination and work ethic to his dad, Greg Spencer, who is the manager of the auto center at Sears. Danny also says he looks up to his culinary teacher Yeatman, and to his mentor Eslinger.

“Whenever Cliff (Eslinger) sees me not being up to his standards, he fixes me,” said Danny.

“He’s taught me good habits, and even though I might grumble sometimes, I really appreciate it.

Whatever the future holds, Danny says the past year has been an incredible time of expansion for him.

“I’ve learned so much. I can’t even describe everything I’ve learned,” said Danny. “The things I’ve taken away from these experiences I’ll remember forever.

about each piece. Then, together, pick some favorites.

The discarding “has to be done respectfully,” he said.

ted “memorabilia collector,” she said. And yet somehow Palmer still didn’t know what to do with the four giant portfolios she found one afternoon, deposited outside the house.

Eventually, Palmer sorted through the folders. The drawings were legion, she said: Some meaningful, some forgettable and forgotten. Eventually, Palmer winnowed down her collection to “one plump portfolio, which still needs to be edited,” she said. At this point, she realized, no one else is going to do it.

Apparently, if you want to own your childhood, you have to throw it away.

Yeatman, who nominated Danny as a Standout Student, says Danny knows as much as a first-year college culinary student, and describes him as smart, respectful and talented.

“I couldn’t imagine doing what he’s doing and working in a restaurant like 900 Wall at his age,” said Yeatman.

Danny is also very much involved in his high school’s culinary activities. Along with three teammates, he will be participating in the Oregon ProStart High School Culinary Championships in Portland on Saturday. The team has been practicing for the competition for weeks, and if they win, they will get to compete at the national level in the spring.

Though Danny says he’s completely dedicated to cooking, he also does well academically. At Mountain View, Danny has taken AP classes, and his favorite

While parents are at it, they may want to add the story behind the picture in a sentence or two. In his 2006 book “Exhibiting Student Art,” Burton discusses an annual fifth-grade art show in Concord, Mass., that features a chronological sampling from each young artist. At the exhibition, he said, a child can look and say, “This horse is much better than my horse from three years ago.”

To create such an anthology at home, Burton suggests sifting through the boxes with a child, maybe twice a year. Try talking

Getting it back Anne Phyfe Palmer’s mother stored sheaves of her juvenilia for decades. It wasn’t easy. Palmer’s mother owned a small house in New Orleans without a basement or an attic. Five years ago, she packed the entire contents of her home into a truck and moved to Seattle where Palmer, 40, lives with her husband and two daughters.

Palmer knew what was coming. Her mother was a commit-

Tim Coffey picks up where he left off in the music world

By Ben Salmon The Bulletin

A

sk any aspiring musician, and chances are most of them

will tell you that Tim Coffey was living the dream.

The Bend-based singersongwriter, who will celebrate the release of his album, “Strings Unbound,” on Thursday night (see “If you go”), spent much of the 1970s and 1980s traveling across the country with bands, playing cover songs at bars, restaurants and hotels and making enough money to survive.

It was a transient life; those bands rarely lasted longer than a year, and Coffey’s home was the road. Occasionally, he would swing through his home town of Salem to visit friends and family, but for the most part, he kept moving, kept playing. At first, it was country music, then Top 40 and rock ’n’ roll, with some jazz sprinkled in here and there.

“I was never an artist, per se, in my opinion,” Coffey said in a telephone interview last week.

“But I could play pretty much any style well enough that any layman would go, ‘Wow. He knows how to play that particular style.’ So I was able to make a living with it.”

And that, for many musicians, is the dream.

But for Coffey, 55, something was missing.

music Oxford jazz series continues with Lamb

Folk singer Johnsmith returns to Sisters

It’s a holiday weekend in early 2011, and for Central Oregon’s jazz fans, that means one thing: the return of The Oxford Hotel’s new jazz series.

The series kicked off in January with Portland’s Mel Brown Quartet, and the second installment will feature the slick, vibrant sound of saxophonist Patrick Lamb.

Lamb is a native of Mississippi whose brand of jazz is heavily influenced by funk, soul and R&B. He has performed twice at the White House, toured with Diane Schuur and Bobby Caldwell, and has worked with everyone from Gina Vannelli to The Crazy 8s to Tom Grant.

You can learn lots more about the man and his music by clicking over to www.patricklamb .com.

Also, it’s worth noting that both Lamb’s Friday and Saturday night performances are sold out, so if you want to see him, you’ll need to turn your attention to Sunday’s special show, which comes with brunch.

Patrick Lamb; 8 p.m. tonight and Saturday, 11:30 a.m. Sunday; tonight and Saturday are sold out, Sunday is $39 advance, $44 at the door (includes brunch).

Advance tickets available with $1.50 fee at www.bendticket. com; The Oxford Hotel, 10 N.W. Minnesota Ave., Bend; www.oxfordhotelbend.com or 541-382-8436.

Sometimes it seems like the smooth sounds of folk singer Johnsmith and the folk-friendly community of Sisters were just made for each other. Especially at those times when the two come together through the magic of touring.

See, Sisters loves deft storytelling set to an acoustic guitar, and that’s what Johnsmith does well. Hailing from a small river town in Wisconsin, the so-called “roaming troubadour” specializes in slice-of-life songs, spinning big-picture lessons out of everyday trials, triumphs and tragedies. His sound is mellow and honest, a la James Taylor or David Wilcox. Visit www .johnsmithmusic.com to learn and hear more.

On Saturday, Johnsmith will visit the HarmonyHouse concert venue in Sisters, a cozy little shop that belongs to Doug and Katie Cavanaugh where you can bring a bottle of wine and some snacks with you for the show. If that doesn’t say “Sisters” I don’t know what does.

Johnsmith; 8 p.m. Saturday, doors open 7 p.m.; $15 suggested donation; HarmonyHouse, 17505 Kent Road, Sisters; 541-548-2209.

week. Let’s take them in chronological order: • The wild-eyed proto-blues band Blackflowers Blacksun will play their final local show of the winter tonight at M&J Tavern (102 N.W. Greenwood Ave., Bend). Each year, the band’s founder, Rustmouth (aka Greg Bryce), heads to Alaska for the summer to fight wildfires. So you’ve got to get while the getting’s good, and it’s good tonight.

Expect howling slide guitar, barked and boozy vocals, and enough old-school, dirty-boot Delta blues to track mud across your brain. 9 p.m. Free.

• Mark Ransom and The Mostest are live-scene staples in Bend, but they’ve been relatively quiet for a bit. That’ll end Thursday when Ransom and a Mostest mega-band (Pat Pearsall, Lindsey Elias, Dale Largent, Scott Hersh and Julie Southwell) light up Silver Moon Brewing & Taproom (24 N.W. Greenwood Ave., Bend) with poppy, jammy rock ’n’ soul. Opening will be Brooks Robertson, a fingerstyle guitarist that Ransom describes as “truly awesome.” Check him out at www.brooksrobertson.com, and check The Mostest at www .themostest.net. 8:30 p.m. $5.

Long Beach Rehab hits Summit Saloon After the popular California ska band Sublime tragically lost its captain, Bradley Nowell, to a drug overdose in 1996, the other members of the band soldiered on, playing in a variety of groups and even trying to resurrect the Sublime name. (Nowell’s family didn’t like that, and a legal battle ensued.)

That’s the setup for this: A band called Long Beach Rehab is coming to Bend on Thurs-

Coffey, and you can usually find them playing for the fine folks at local hangouts like Brother Jon’s, Jackson’s Corner and Velvet. Coffey was also approached by the Breedlove Guitar Co. to become a part of its stable of artists, an honor he calls “absolutely amazing.”

Now one of the busiest players in Bend’s scene, Coffey is able to reflect on the time he spent away from music. He says the desire to play was always there.

“It was not dead to me. It was … an itch,” he said. “I was definitely distracted by the mountain biking and climbing and running and whatever. I love to do that. I don’t love to do that as much as music, but I love to do it.

So I think that made it palatable to not be playing.

“And also I had had enough of playing the way I played,” he continued. “In those kinds of bands, playing other people’s music, a lot of which I didn’t even care for.

I’d had enough of it, so I knew if I was going to do it, it’d have to be basically how I’m doing it now.”

And while he’s not paying the bills with music — and he doesn’t expect to ever again — how he’s doing it now suits Tim Coffey just fine.

“At my age to have something new at all and to have something new that I actually really love and have always had a passion about and to actually be doing it in a way I wanted to do it, I feel very grateful that that happened,” he said. “Everything about this is right. To be able to get to play again, play my own stuff, and everything else going on in my life, I’m very much on Cloud 9.”

The young, enthusiastic fellows in Bend’s Capture the Flag will kick off a short Northwest tour this weekend with two local shows.

The band is currently writing songs for its upcoming debut album, and they’ll hit the studio in May. Before that, though, they’ve scheduled the Hard At Lurk Tour, which will see them spread their irresistible pop-punk gospel across Washington and Oregon.

Eugene’s Tyler Fortier to play at portello There are great songwriters, and then there are great songwriters doing interesting things.

Tyler Fortier is the latter. The Eugene-based singer-songwriter — who has roots in Bend — established himself as a great songwriter on his first four records, especially 2010’s “This Love Is Fleeting,” a collection of beautiful, downcast Americana music that channels the starkness of Ryan Adams, the lush experimentalism of Conor Oberst and the storytelling acumen of Josh Ritter.

But it’s his fifth record (and his plans for 2011) that reveals Fortier as a musician unafraid of ambition and adventure. Sat-

urday night at portello winecafe, he’ll officially release “ … And They Rode Like Wildfire Snaking Through the Hills ‘Neath the Scarlet Sun,” an album of lo-fi, 19th-century narrative songs about the old West. Fortier wrote the tunes in a week in late 2010 and recorded them at his parents’ house in Bend, inspired by a movie about Wild Bill Hickock.

“Rode Like Wildfire” includes stories of a lawman, a gunfighter and a gambler, Hickock and Calamity Jane, and the gunfight at the O.K. Corral, with fiction and nonfiction blending into a hazy world built around Fortier’s voice and acoustic guitar. It’s a terrific work — akin to Bruce Springsteen’s harrowing lo-fi classic “Nebraska” — that showcases its maker as more than just a guy who can string chords and melodies together. Take a listen to it at http://tylerfortier.band camp.com.

As if that wasn’t enough, Fortier has even bigger plans for 2011. He has scheduled his sixth album, the existential and more slickly produced “Fear of the Unknown,” for April, and he plans on putting out his seventh, “Bang on Time,” later this year. In between, he’s embarking on his biggest tour yet, traveling across the West for the next few months and beyond. It’s an ambitious plan, one that makes it seem like Fortier knows he’s sitting on something special, and that he needs to take it out into the world and share it. And he’d be right.

Follow his journey at www .tylerfortier.com.

music releases Gang of Four

Deerhoof

CONTENT Yep Roc Records Society’s ills and political wills never spoiled the party for British post-punk minimalists Gang of Four. It was the party.

Snide, shouting lyricist Jon King and spiky guitarist Andy Gill are what’s left of the original quartet. Their wordy, vinegary catalog was ripe with angular funk, dub, and disco. Their shtick — rhythmic and otherwise — made them godfathers to today’s robo-rhythmic punk.

It has also meant that Gang of Four must contend with its own legend, to say nothing of the merry folly of its young followers.

“Content” is no “Entertainment!” (Gang’s dry, seminal 1979 debut). Nor is it a hipster’s lament. Instead, “Content” is an intense and handily stripped-down take on political and emotional resistance.

The only futility, it seems to say, lies in trying to stand still.

DEERHOOF VS. EVIL Polyvinyl Records Art rock can be a tedious thing, as self-conscious and deliberate as it is, but San Francisco quartet Deerhoof has always fallen on the playful side of the equation.

“Deerhoof vs. Evil,” the band’s 10th studio album, continues the merry experimentation with its affection for squiggly ’70s synths and the layered sounds of vintage French pop and electro-acoustic acts like Grandaddy.

“I Did Crimes for You” and “Super Duper Rescue Heads!” come off as deceptively cartoonish, employing kitchensink instrumentation for clean, direct verses that burst

King and Gill are immediately recognizable from the Four of yore, what with the deadpan sneer and clinking riffs of “It Was Never Gonna Turn Out Too Good,” and the pair hasn’t forgotten how to pen an anthem, melodically or lyrically, whether it’s consumerism (“You’ll Never Pay for the Farm”) or antiauthoritarianism (“Do As I Say”) they’re on about.

“Content” is not jolly, but it’s jolly good.

— A.D. Amorosi, The Philadelphia Inquirer

Here and there March 19 — Doug Fir Lounge, Portland; www.ticketswest.com or 800-992-8499.

Destroyer KAPUTT Merge Records “Kaputt” is a strange record, even by the standards of Destroyer, the band built around the Vancouver singer-songwriter Dan Bejar. It’s deluxe on the surface and cheap underneath, its songs carefully planned in gesture but meager in structure and development, hip as hell but determinedly uncool.

Basically it’s Bejar’s late-’70sand-early-’80s ambient and newromantic tag-sale blowout, swathed in cheesy electronic drums with strokes of flute and trumpet and purely decorative tenor saxophone: all sales final, all items must go. But be careful: he’s a trickster.

“I write poetry for myself,” he sings, and repeats, at a critical point in “Blue Eyes.” The line comes out of nowhere and pulls

you up short. It’s a warning and an instruction, something useful.

Bejar, born in 1972, was young when this album’s referents came out, and there are many. They include Bryan Ferry’s “Boys and Girls”; assorted bits of New Order, David Bowie, Sade, and Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark; and Brian Eno and Harold Budd’s “Plateaux of Mirror.”

He doesn’t seem to be pointing at any of this music out of love or fashion, or at least he doesn’t want us to think so. He seems to be pulling different strands together to make a nice dressing for poems that suggest a comfortable blankness of spirit.

Bejar is assuredly a near-obsessive listener to pop music of an earlier time; a lot of his work is strewn with specific references to songs and bands. On the other hand, it’s just subconscious matter. The record as a whole can seem to disappear or evaporate almost as you’re listening to it. But that’s its charm; that’s why you might want to hear it again.

— Ben Ratliff, The New York Times

Here and there Feb. 26 — Holocene, Portland; www.brownpapertickets.com or 800-838-3006.

into cute, frenzied noise-rock choruses. Short instrumentals (“Let’s Dance the Jet”) and glam-rock homages (the mini-epic “The Merry Barracks”) give the band a chance to stretch out, while the denim strut of “Secret Mobilization” and the jazzy, malfunctioningrobot vibe of “Must Fight Current” pingpong between conventional and self-indulgent.

It’s mildly challenging in the same way that atmospheric acts like Stereolab are, massaging nostalgia with clear reference

points, but reinforcing the pop core with singer-bassist Satomi Matsuzaki’s tinny melodies.

Like most Deerhoof records, “Vs. Evil” is a snapshot of the band’s chemistry, inspiration and occasional brilliance. But focus? Not so much.

— John Wenzel, The Denver Post

gether by Beam’s warm, understated vocals.

The first single, “Tree by the River,” takes ’70s and ’80s AM radio pop (Air Supply’s “Lost in Love,” anyone?) and pairs it to a driving beat and Beam’s vivid descriptions — “I mean the

world to a potty-mouthed girl, a pretty pair of blue-eyed birds,” he says describing his new life, “time isn’t kind or unkind, you liked to say.”

On “Me and Lazarus,” a big, fat bass line is front and center while Beam sings about the exploits of a duo, including “an emancipated punk and he can dance.” “Big Burned Hand” is sax-driven and, well, funky.

“Kiss Each Other Clean” is filled with all kinds of surprises, as Beam takes the experiments of his last album to an all-new level. It’s a big-sounding album, but Beam’s lyrics and vocals are strong enough for the challenge.

— Glenn Gamboa Newsday

“Party” is a bit of a mixed bag, a fun album on one hand, but it doesn’t necessarily enhance admiration for Jackson or prompt anyone to investigate her old hits like “Fujiyama Mama,” “Mean, Mean Man” and “Honey Bop.” White gives the new album a frat-party atmosphere, rockin’ horns, searing guitars, funky organ licks. Classic rockers like “Rip It Up,” “Shakin’ All Over” and Eddie Cochran’s “Nervous Breakdown” are done with a solid professionalism that will have you bopping but not forgetting the originals.

Bob Dylan’s “Thunder on the Mountain,” supposedly chosen

by the man himself, gives Jackson a chance to let loose.

At 73, she may not have the voice she once had, but “Party” could have used a bit more of it.

— Rob Lowman, Los Angeles Daily News

Iron And Wine KISS EACH OTHER CLEAN Warner Bros. Records When Iron and Wine (aka Sam Beam) arrived in 2002, his hushed vocals and lo-fi accompaniment were as much of his signature as his distinctive bushy beard.

Well, the beard is still around, but on his major-label debut “Kiss Each Other Clean,” Beam bears little resemblance to his previous indie-folk self. While he still tells gripping stories, these days Beam’s well-crafted lyrics are surrounded by a lush world of rhythms and sounds.

One minute there are elements of doo-wop, the next there are bits of Afro-pop — all held to-

Wanda Jackson THE PARTY AIN’T OVER Nonesuch Records Jack White serves as producer and guitarist on this comeback album of the queen of rockabilly with the unique wail who in the ’50s performed with Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash and Jerry Lee Lewis.

Originally a country singer, she added sass and glamour and hot guitar licks to become a star.

After years of her performing gospel, White — who did similar duties for Loretta Lynn on her 2004 comeback, “Van Lear Rose” — helps Wanda Jackson return to her rock ’n’ roll past.

PLAYSTATION 3 GAMES The editors of Game Informer Magazine rank the top 10 PlayStation 3 games for February: 1. “LittleBigPlanet 2” (Sony) 2. “Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds” (Capcom) 3. “Dead Space 2” (Electronic Arts) 4. “Gran Turismo 5” (Sony)

ith releases like “Brutal Legend” and “Costume Quest,” Double Fine has cemented its reputation as a go-to developer for unique gaming experiences, even if the company’s offerings don’t always find an audience. “Stacking” may be Double Fine’s most niche concept to date, but it’s hard to imagine a player who wouldn’t enjoy the game’s clever puzzles and charming story.

You play as Charlie Blackmore, the innermost doll and youngest child of the Blackmore family, a Russian matryoshka set. After his siblings are kidnapped and forced into child labor by the evil Baron, it’s up to Charlie to track them down and free them.

Luckily, Charlie has the ability to hop inside larger dolls, each of which has a special ability.

Some of these abilities are purely for entertainment, but many are vital to progressing through each level.

Despite this novel mechanic, the core gameplay of “Stacking” is the same as any good adventure game: creatively solving unique and humorous puzzles. Each level contains several challenges Charlie must overcome, which in turn have several unique solutions. Upon completion, a puzzle will instantly reset, allowing you to try it again without having to reload a save. This ingenious mechanic solves one of the most common problems with the genre: searching for an off-the-wall solution that only makes sense to the developer. Instead, virtually everyone will be able to come up with at least one solution (such as using a mechanic

“Stacking” may be Double Fine’s most niche concept to date, but it’s hard to imagine a player who wouldn’t enjoy the game’s clever puzzles and charming story. to open a traversable ventilation duct) and continue with the story, but dedicated gamers can wrack their brains for more obscure solutions (such as farting into said vent to clear out the adjoining room).

An optional time-based hint system reduces the puzzle-based frustration to nearly nonexistent levels.

The Baron’s evil traps aren’t the only problems you have to overcome. Your character is about as responsive as you would expect a wooden doll to be, and his sluggish pace is annoying, especially on levels that require a lot of backtracking.

Camera issues emerge in close quarters, and can make targeting dolls next to walls a pain.

The sense of progression also falters; while you unlock the ability to stack with larger dolls as you continue, it doesn’t add much to the gameplay. The biggest changeup is the ability to combine characters’ powers.

EW I V E R

New game releases The following titles were scheduled for release the week of Feb. 13: • “Hard Corps: Uprising” (X360) • “Brunswick Pro Bowling” (X360)

‘STACKING’ 8.5 (out of 10) PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 THQ, Double Fine ESRB rating: E10+ This leads to some great puzzles, but this mechanic shows up too late in the game and isn’t used enough. A few side objectives such as finding complete doll sets or performing mischievous acts add length to the gameplay, but there’s not much payoff for completing them beyond unlocking models at your secret base. Thanks to a little eleventh hour variety, “Stacking” ends on a high note, but the rest of the game could have used more gameplay twists like those introduced in the final scenes.

Aside from creative puzzles, a good adventure game needs an engaging story, which in

• “Ys I & II Chronicles” (PSP) • “Dance Paradise” (X360) • “Gears of War Triple Pack” (X360) • “Marvel vs. Capcom 3: Fate of Two Worlds” (PS3, X360)

“Stacking’s” case is simple, yet charming. Despite only the most primitive of animations (most dolls can only move at their midsection) the characters are memorable, and the Blackmore family is positively endearing.

Humor plays an equally important role, and “Stacking” delivers in this regard as well. Most of the laughs are pretty adolescent, with no shortage of dolls that feature farting as their special ability (with a surprising variety of sounds). If you’re too stuffy for this breed of humor, you can expect more sophisticated laughs as well. The Great Depression and child labor are two topics that might not instantly spring to mind when it comes to comedy, but Double Fine uses them to great effect.

“Stacking” is a bit rough around the edges, but the puzzles are clever, the humor hits the mark more than it misses, and the characters and story are delightful, leaving adventure fans with little more to ask for.

‘WE BOWL’ For: iPhone/iPod Touch From: Freeverse Price: It’s complicated Freeverse has demonstrated a mastery of dangling carrots with its outstanding “Skee-Ball” and improbably addictive “Coin Push Frenzy” iOS games. But it errs miserably with “We Bowl,” which validates every concern ever expressed regarding the “freemium” game model. On the surface, “Bowl” is a pleasant bowling game. Like “Skee-Ball,” it rewards good performance with tickets that, once accumulated, can unlock pins, props and clothes for your customized bowling alley and bowler. Problem is, “Bowl” is only playable when you have golden balls, which is its form of in-game currency. You start with 20, each throw costs one, and when you run out — even mid-game — you either have to wait 30 seconds to bowl again or pay real money to purchase a “bag” instantly. “Bowl” clearly wants to you exercise option B if the blanketing of “Buy this!” reminders is any indication, and the net result of waiting and being pelted with ads for balls is so much worse than if “Bowl” had just asked for a few bucks up front and left you alone to play the game. The bowling isn’t good enough for this hassle to be worthwhile, and the only thing “Bowl” nails is how to alienate customers before they can even drop a dime.

inter returned to Central Oregon this week just in time for Bend WinterFest, where the snow will be flying to celebrate all things winter.

Snowboarders and skiers will be hurtling into the air at the Rail Jam. Chain saw-wielding artists will be carving ice at breakneck speed. Cross-country skiers will fly around a track during the SprinterFest races.

And WinterFest staff anticipated at press time that they will have imported roughly 70 truckloads of the white stuff from the Cascades to make it all possible.

“We’re expecting a bigger-than-Ben-Hur event, we really are,” said Sandy Henderson, vice president of Lay It Out Events, the masterminds behind this year’s 12th annual snow celebration.

For the third year, WinterFest will take place in Bend’s Old Mill District, today, Saturday and Sunday. It will occupy mainly the west side of the Deschutes River in and around the Les Schwab Amphitheater. And it promises to continue its reign as a top attraction — the WinterFest website says a record

number of people, roughly 32,000, attended last year, and organizers are expecting even more this year.

And per usual, the festival has brought back some old favorites while introducing new options.

Back will be the Rail Jam, with snowriders competing for cash prizes. The skate ski racers will receive more prominence this year, Henderson said, as the track will loop around the Rail Jam area.

“The energy around the Rail Jam will be even higher than in the past,” she said.

Plus, the Metal Mulisha, a motocross team that specializes in heart-in-your-throat aerials, will put on several shows again on Sunday.

New to this year’s WinterFest is a more actionpacked children’s area, called the Kids Snowflake Village, courtesy of the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry.

Staff from OMSI will put on different programs every hour on the hour Saturday and Sunday during the festival. Various tables with activities for busy hands will also be available. There may be live reptiles on hand as well, but that will depend on the weather.

TONIGHT

The Aggrolites N early a decade ago, the excellent Los Angelesbased band The Aggrolites coined a term for their style of music by naming their debut album “Dirty Reggae.”

Since then, the group has worked hard — through three more studio albums and a tireless tour schedule — to give the term a more precise definition. Today, The Aggrolites are synonymous with bouncy, vintage roots-reggae that’s rough around the edges with urban grit and rock/soul influence, but tightly packaged into irresistible three-minute chunks. The resulting sound is proof that you don’t have to call a poor Jamaican town home to make exciting, engaging reggae music. Indeed, The Aggrolites don’t look or sound like a “real” reggae band, but they’re also more interesting than most “real” reggae bands.

All that said, the band scrubs off some of that dirt on their upcoming album “Rugged Road,” due out soon on Young Cub Records. “Rugged” is the most traditional album of The Aggro-

lites’ career so far, eschewing the more accessible leanings of their previous work in favor of lackadaisical, dub-influenced numbers and instrumental organ-driven jams. (Seven of the album’s 10 tracks feature no vocals at all.)

Longtime fans needn’t worry, though; “Rugged Road” won’t put you to sleep. Instead of smoking, The Aggrolites choose to simmer here, giving plenty of time and space to the keyboard skills of Roger Rivas, arguably the band’s MVP. When he lays low, “Rugged” is a pleasant, head-nodding dub record by a band in full command of its game. When Rivas stretches, it’s like sitting on a merry-go-round in the middle of Kingston as Rasta spirit and ganja-perfumed air wafts by.

“Rugged Road” will be out later this month online and on vinyl, and on CD in March. For now, you can visit www.aggroreggae.com and get a taste of one of the tracks, “Complicated Girl.”

Lyrics Born L ast time the Bay Area rapper Lyrics Born (aka Tom Shimura) played in Bend, he chatted with The Bulletin beforehand about his background, primarily his time spent digging through record crates while at the University of California, Davis.

It was all that digging, Shimura said, that informed the ongoing evolution of his energetic, left-of-center hip-hop.

“I’m more of a music fan now,” he said in early 2006. “Before, I was only into hip-hop.

Now, the same passion I have for hip-hop I have for (other) music. But, see, it was hip-hop that pointed me in the direction of all that stuff, because I was a digger.

“Hunting down samples, trying to become a better samplebased producer, sent me on a wild-goose chase after all these different records and all these

And a full lineup of musicians

different genres,” he continued.

“And that’s what opened the door for me to get involved with all the other kinds of music: trying to go beyond the surface with my love for hip-hop.”

Five years later, you can hear the fruits of that wild-goose chase on Shimura’s newest album, “As U Were,” which came out last fall. It’s a rap record, but only in the sense that Shimura does rap. But he also mixes in his own hook-friendly, singsong style, and all of it is set to a bed of music rooted much more in the vibrant electro-funk of the ‘70s and ‘80s than any sort of hardcore ‘90s hip-hop.

“As U Were” is emblematic of Shimura’s fiercely independent streak, as well as his commitment to pushing boundaries and rocking parties. Learn and hear more at www.lyricsborn .com.

‘The Spin Cycle’

‘The Rainmaker’

Rob Kerr / The Bulletin

Eileen DeSandre, as Mom, rehearses a scene from the comedy “The Spin Cycle” with actor Derek Sitter, who co-stars as her son, Mike. The David Rambo comedy opens tonight at Bend Performing Arts Center.

Clockwise from bottom left, “The Rainmaker” cast members Parker Daines, Adam Eagle, Shawn O’Hern, Jen Frisby and Jim Lee rehearse a scene from the comedy about a con artist who sows the seeds for contentment — and possibly rain — all over a Western ranch.

Comedy set during Great Depression takes off at Bend’s 2nd Street Theater

By David Jasper The Bulletin

S

et during the Great Depression, “The Rainmaker” concerns a cattle-killing drought, the looming threat of spinsterhood and a wanted con-man, all of which coalesce on a Dust Bowl ranch one fateful night.

And as says Starbuck, the charismatic con artist of the title, “The world goes crazy on a hot night.”

The comedy, written by N. Richard Nash in the 1950s (and later made into the musical “110 in the Shade”) opens tonight at 2nd Street Theater in Bend (see “If you go”). Susan Benson di-

rects the play, which stars Jen Frisby as Lizzie Curry, a woman whose father, H.C. Curry (played

by Jim Lee), and brothers, Jimmy (Parker Daines) and Noah (Adam Eagle), are concerned that supposedly plain Lizzie may never find a husband.

Their attempt to set her up with a divorced deputy, File (Neil Overfelt), who would like very much to go on pretending he’s a widower, seems to be going nowhere — just like Lizzie.

Then Starbuck, played by Shawn O’Hern, who seems to relish his part, shows up. He claims that for the tidy sum of $100, he can make the skies open up over the ranch.

“Once in your life, you gotta take a chance on a con man … and a hundred dollars is only a hundred dollars,” Starbuck says.

“But rain in a dry season, well, that’s a sight to behold.”

Innovation Theatre Works’ production of the comedy “The Spin Cycle,” opening tonight at Bend Performing Arts Center, stars Eileen DeSandre as Mom, the mother of menopausal Wendy (played by Chris Rennolds) and Mike (Derek Sitter), a 40-something mama’s boy with a pesky case of Peter Pan Syndrome.

Set around Thanksgiving in Pottstown, Pa., “The Spin Cycle” concerns two baby boomers dealing with life-and-death issues, including their mother’s failing health, which tests their already strained relationship and triggers a shared sense of impending mortality.

“It’s an aging ‘Greatest Generation’ mother and her two adult children,” playwright David Rambo told The Bulletin last week. Rennolds’

Wendy appears to have been a responsible adult, but “we find out she really hasn’t been,” he said. Baby brother Mike is the pampered baby of the family, “who’s never really wanted to grow up. He’s Peter Pan, and of course, he’s mother’s favorite,” Rambo added.

‘The Spin Cycle’ From previous page As Mom begins her fairly rapid decline, Wendy and Mike must come to terms with their loss, and each other. Though a play exploring aging and death may sound grim, the sniping, well-drawn characters, clever shifts in point-of-view and overall humor buoy the material.

DeSandre embraces her role in the play. “I have never played an ingenue in my life. I’m not a leading-lady type. I’m a character actor.”

An Oregon Shakespeare Festival veteran, DeSandre has appeared as Francis Flute in “A

Midsummer Night’s Dream” and Brighella in “The Servant of Two Masters.” She took a hiatus from the festival in 2009.

When she read “The Spin Cycle,” DeSandre saw an opportunity for artistic growth. She believes Mom is “one of the best parts I’ve ever been offered,” she said, and thinks audiences will find it similarly moving.

“I think they will laugh. I think they might cry,” DeSandre said.

“The way Rambo handles the material, it’s not depressing,” she added. “It’s funny, moving and real.”

Kiarra Saito-Beckman, 12, and Nick Loeffler, who turns 17 on Saturday, will perform with the Central Oregon Symphony during its Winter Concert Series this weekend at Bend High School.

‘The Rainmaker’ From previous page “He’s a liar and a con man,” Lizzie warns her father.

H.C. concurs, and Starbuck begins to shove off: “Mister, it hurts me to hear you say that,” he tells H.C. “You’re a liar and a con man, but I didn’t say I wouldn’t take your deal,” replies H.C., who decides to pay the money and take the chance. Starbuck manages to further ingratiate himself with the family, most of all with Lizzie, whose beauty Starbuck earnestly believes in, even if she has trouble seeing it herself.

Starbuck’s arrival, and the threat of capture — of Starbuck by the law, and of Lizzie’s heart

by Starbuck — sets many events into motion. Maybe even a few storm clouds over a desperately dry land.

“I love that the characters have a lot of hope in desperate times and I think it speaks to today’s people as well,” said director Benson. “We’re going through ecological crises and economic crises. It’s really very parallel, and the mark of a good play is that it speaks across time and cultures.”

Due to productions such as “Oliver!” that are also happening locally, casting was a challenge,

“I love that the characters have a lot of hope in desperate times and I think it speaks to today’s people as well.”

— Susan Benson, director

Benson added.

“We kind of ended up scraping together a cast, and I have to say that the universe has been looking out for this play, because I couldn’t pick anybody better, even if I had the whole town to choose from. It’s just like this was meant to be. You have to trust that.

“You know, it sort of dovetails with the message in the play: Just have hope that things are going to work out, and they do.”

Central Oregon Symphony will hold its Winter Concert Series this weekend at Bend High School, 230 N.E.

concert on the same day, exercise your body and your mind.”

• “Composer ethnic diversity: Two Austrians, a Pole and a Russian, guess who’s who.”

• “Newly renovated Bend High School auditorium, you won’t believe the difference.”

• “Thanks to our amazing donors and sponsors, anyone can attend the concert free of charge.”

Family, first and foremost At El Rancho Grande, service and ambience reign supreme

By John Gottberg Anderson For The Bulletin

I

t’s always a pleasure to discover a service-oriented restaurant. That has been my experience at El Rancho Grande in Bend’s Cascade Village Shopping Center.

While the standard food offerings are comparable in quality to other Mexican restaurants in the Central Oregon region, its dignified, professional service and colorful, well-maintained atmosphere enable El Rancho Grande to stand out from the crowd.

Rafael Rodriguez, who owns the restaurant together with his wife, Lorena Robles Rodriguez, says that’s because it is a family establishment, first and foremost.

“When it’s family, we really care about what people think of our food and our service,” he said. “We bend over backwards to make sure everything is done properly, and that our guests leave happy.”

Lorena’s parents, Maria and Macedonio Robles, originally opened El Rancho Grande in Sisters 11 years ago, together with Maria’s brother, Carlos Anaya, a founder of El Caporal. Over time, the Rodriguezes replaced Anaya as business partners with the Robleses and expanded their little restaurant empire to Bend and Redmond.

“We had three going at the same time,” Rafael Rodriguez recalled. “But (in the current economy) we thought it would be a good idea to downsize. We sold

the Sisters restaurant (now Rancho Viejo). The Redmond one never worked out.”

The couple closed it three years ago.

Now full owners of El Rancho Grande, Lorena and Rafael Rodriguez are dedicated to the business.

“I am here seven days a week,” Rafael said. “My wife keeps the books and helps to serve. My brother-in-law works with us.

We don’t have many people here who are not family.”

Bullish ambience Located opposite JCPenney at the heart of the handsome Cascade Village Shopping Center on the north side of Bend, El Rancho Grande is “bullish” about its family heritage. Its two mascots — the statues Diablo the Bull and Oscar T. the “Charitabull” Buffalo — symbolize that attitude.

While Diablo is mobile, appearing at different locations around Bend, Oscar is a permanent fixture in the space between dining room and lounge. Patrons are encouraged to try tossing a ring around his horn; the restaurant donates $5 to charity for each successful toss.

Lilting mariachi tunes set the soundtrack in El Rancho Grande, providing a common thread to dining room and lounge. Otherwise, the appearance of the two rooms is quite different.

Intimate corners beckon couples seeking a touch of

romance.

The lounge is a sports fan’s delight, with a quartet of televisions and seating for more than four dozen guests. Ceilings reach high above the ochre-and-rust

color palette.

My companion and I ate once in each room. On each visit, we were greeted at the entrance and seated promptly.

restaurants From previous page Glasses of ice water and baskets of tortilla chips — accompanied by a very spicy red salsa (milder sauce was available on request) and a cabbage-heavy pico de gallo — were delivered immediately with the menus.

D i n n er fare We found the food at our first visit, in the evening, to be superior to that on our subsequent lunchtime stop.

My dinnertime meal choice was El Rancho camarones, a dish of a half-dozen plump prawns, sauteed in butter, garlic and white wine with mushrooms, onions and green peppers. They were served casserole-style upon a bed of rice, and briefly baked to melt a layer of Monterey jack cheese on top.

The dish was very good. Next time, however, I would request extra sour cream or guacamole on the side; either would have gone well when I wrapped my entree fajita-style within the accompanying tortillas.

My friend was similarly pleased with her steak El Rancho Grande. A thick rib steak was charbroiled rare, as per her request, and topped with onions, green peppers and guacamole.

The accompanying Spanishstyle rice and refried beans, however, were mediocre.

Lunchtime visit We learned that whole pinto beans or black beans are available on request. When we returned a few days later for lunch, we made it a point to choose our bean preference.

I had black beans as part of a Tijuana taco salad bowl. A generous amount of meat — I selected shredded beef, although I also could have opted for ground beef or chicken — filled the bottom of a flour tortilla, shaped into a crisp bowl.

It was topped with shredded lettuce and cheese, minced tomato, mild salsa, sour cream and guacamole. While this was a satisfactory dish, I would have preferred the meat to have been better dispersed through the salad, and the crusty tortilla to have been less thick. I left three quarters of it, preferring the somewhat healthier filling.

My friend chose the chicken en mole, boneless chickenbreast strips simmered in a traditional Mexican sauce.

This particular mole recipe was sweeter and more chocolaty than many, with minimal peanut or pumpkin-seed flavor.

And there was far more sauce

SMALL BITES The DiLusso Bakery Cafe in downtown Bend closed Feb. 8.

Located at the corner of Bond Street and Franklin Avenue, the coffee shop opened more than a decade ago, changing its name from Royal Blend Coffee to DiLusso in 2005. Owner Marcie Aldape, who purchased the business in October 2009, said high overhead and decreasing sales were primary factors in the decision to close.

The Bend Fish Co. has closed following the Jan. 24 death of founder and co-owner Mike West. The establishment at

RECENT REVIEWS Cascade Culinary Institute (B): The meals presented by Central Oregon Community College culinary students are not perfect. But they are far superior to those of many better-known, midpriced restaurants throughout the region. Lunch most Thursdays at noon; dinner seatings at 5:45, 6:15 and 6:45 p.m.

Tuesdays through February, then again beginning in April.

Old Mill Brew Wërks (B): This friendly, casual, out-of-the-way pub is a great place to quaff a beer, but food has been inconsistent. Best is the pork, either pulled and barbecued in sliders, or served as a seared porkloin entree. Open 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday to Wednesday, 11 a.m. to midnight Thursday and Friday, 1 to 7 p.m. Saturday. 384 S.W. Upper Terrace (at Wilson Avenue), Bend; 541-633-7670.

Ariana Restaurant (A-): Still one of Central Oregon’s best destinations for romantic fine dining, Ariana offers wonderful Mediterranean-influenced food.

The Craftsman-style bungalow features white-tablecloth service from skilled professional waiters. Open 5 p.m. to close Tuesday to Saturday. 1304 N.W. Galveston Ave., Bend; www.arianarestaurant bend.com, 541-330-5539.

Cheerleaders Grill (A-): Don’t let the collection of sports memorabilia mislead you into thinking this is a sports bar and grill; in fact, it’s a family-friendly diner that serves solid breakfasts and lunches. The staff will make you feel like family by your second visit. Open 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. every day. 3081 N. U.S. Highway 97, Bend; 541-330-0631.

Diane Kruger as Gina and Liam Neeson as Dr. Martin Harris find common ground in the thriller “Unknown.”

‘Unknown’ lacks focus Series of accidents is basis of plot, but questions are rarely answered

I

s there a term for the paradox of intended accidental consequences? That’s when a movie shows something that must be an accident, and it turns out to be part of a plan. Since “Unknown” opens with examples of such events, it won’t be a spoiler for me to discuss them. I’ll bail out before the tricky stuff.

As the movie opens, we meet Dr. Martin Harris (Liam Neeson) and his wife, Elizabeth (January Jones), who are on a flight to a biotechnology conference in Berlin. I’m thinking all we need to know about biotechnology in a thriller is that it probably in-

volves either genetically altered crops or dangerous plagues.

Anyway, at the airport Dr. Harris lets a guy load his luggage and as the taxi leaves, we get a big shot of his briefcase, still on the luggage trolley.

So OK. Was this an accident?

If I’m carrying a briefcase that contains a cure for world hunger or a formula of mass destruction, I’m not gonna leave it on the curb.

That’s like leaving a laptop sitting on the sink when you go into a stall at a public toilet. Anyway, Dr. Harris and his wife get to the hotel, she starts to check in, he realizes his briefcase was left be-

ROGER EBERT

“Unknown” 113 minutes PG-13, for some intense sequences of violence and action, and brief sexual content hind, and WITHOUT TELLING HER he grabs another taxi to the airport. He tries to call her but can’t get a signal. Ever had that happen to you in Berlin?

A container falls off the truck

in front of them, the taxi swerves and plunges through a bridge rail, Dr. Harris is knocked unconscious, but his life is saved by the quick actions of the driver, Gina (Diane Kruger). He’s in a coma for four days. He pulls himself together and races to the hotel, only to find that his wife says she has never seen him before and is happily married to the “real” Dr. Martin Harris (Aidan Quinn).

Now his ordeal begins: How can he prove his real identity and understand the conspiracy that has taken control of his life?

As a veteran thriller watcher, you can think of several possibilities here. It was all a dream. He has been brainwashed. He only thinks he’s Martin Harris. He only imagined he was on a plane with the real Mrs. Elizabeth Harris. The second taxi was waiting

to pick him up. And on and on.

Or possibly none of the above.

But let’s do an instant rewind.

Was it an accident he left the briefcase behind? If he hadn’t, there would have been no need to return to the airport. Was the falling container an accident? Was it an accident that he got a (beautiful) undocumented Bosnian refugee taxi driver who performed a heroic rescue in icy winter waters?

Was it planned that he would be able to walk into the biotechnology conference and find the (real or fake) Dr. Martin Harris?

I’m thinking, if I’m an operative for some sinister secret organization and I want that briefcase and the MacGuffin it contains, here’s what I’ll do: I’ll knock off Liam Neeson, whoever he is, and steal the briefcase.

This film makes no sense ‘I

Am Number Four” is shameless and unnecessary. That’s sad, when a movie casts aside all shame, demonstrates itself willing to rip off anything that might attract audiences, and nevertheless fails. What we have here is a witless attempt to merge the “Twilight” formula with the Michael Bay formula. It ends with sexy human teenagers involved in an endless special effects battle with sexy alien teenagers who look like humans, in a high school and on its football field.

Let’s pause for a moment to consider this apocalyptic battle.

It is all special effects. None of it is physically possible. It might as well be a cartoon; it’s essentially CGI animation intercut with brief bursts of inane dialogue. Brief, because the global action market doesn’t much care about dialogue, and besides, when people start talking about something, you could run into the hazard of having actual characters in a plot.

Minute after relentless minute, creatures both human and alien, whom we care nothing about, wage war and occasionally disintegrate into clouds of tiny pixels for no particular reason.

I like science fiction. The opening shot of “I Am Number Four” holds promise, as John (Alex Pettyfer), the narrator, explains that he is a Mogadorian, no doubt from a planet named Mogador. Specifically, he is Mogadorian Number Four. Don’t expect me to explain

From previous page Or break into his hotel room.

Or drug him. Anything. Because, think: If he isn’t the real Martin Harris, why does he possess the briefcase containing the MacGuffin in the first place? But if he’s a fake Martin Harris, who is the real one?

The movie has answers of a sort to some, not all, of these questions. All the same, it left me re-running events in my mind and thinking, Wait! Are we deal-

RO G E R EBERT Courtesy DreamWorks

J o h n (Alex Pettyfer) starts a meaningful relationship with Sarah (Dianna Agron) in “I Am Number Four.”

“I Am Number Four” 110 minutes PG-13, for intense sequences of violence and action, and for language the Mogadorian numbering system. He is hiding out on planet Earth, and doing everything possible to disguise himself as a box office attraction like Edward Cullen. They have already killed Numbers One, Two and Three.

Consider. The “Twilight” movies were about a handsome and sexy teenager who exerted a powerful attraction upon a virginal young girl, and yet held himself aloof because he was a vampire. Here John is a handsome and sexy teenager who is technically unavailable because he is an alien, although it appears that Mogador may luckily have evolved teenage boys indistinguishable from humans to such as Sarah (Dianna Agron). John has been on the lam around America to remain in hiding from those who would kill him and is accompanied by his fellow Mogadorian Henri (Timothy Olyphant), who

poses as his father and cautions him that his real father didn’t die only to see John marry an Earth girl. Whether John has the option of returning to Mogador and settling down with a nice Mogadoress to raise Mogadorlings, I am not certain.

The high school elements in the plot revolve around John’s popularity in some areas (he’s an ace on a Jet Ski) and non-conformity in others (his palms function like high-powered searchlights). He is also free of the ordinary constraints of gravity, and can leap for dozens of yards and even fly. What this means is that the climactic battle scene can take place largely in the air, and Harry Potter’s Quidditch games join the honor roll of the plundered.

There is no doubt a degree of identification available for the primary audience of “I Am Number Four.” Many teenage girls have perhaps imagined themselves in love with a handsome hunk with tousled blond hair, a three-day stubble, incredible athletic abilities and hands that glow in the

dark. That he is Not From Around Here makes him all the more attractive.

In the film we see native Mogadorians, whose faces are deeply scarred with gill-like extrusions.

I am not completely sure if this is how John really looks and he has somehow morphed into teenager form, or if he was forced to flee Mogador because he looked like an alien Edward Cullen. I’m sure this is all spelled out in the movie.

Sometimes I find it so very, very hard to care.

Now imagine “I Am Number Four” as a “novelization.” There would be the setup, a little dialogue, and then pages and pages of violent action: “John leaped 100 yards into the air and struck him with a deadly ray! An enemy fighter disintegrated into an ashy gray cloud of pixels! Number Six, her hair flowing in slow motion, whirled around and kicked the Mogadorian commander! ‘Look out!’ John shouted! ‘Behind you!’ cried Sarah.”

This would quickly grow old.

Why audiences enjoy watching

protracted sequences of senseless action mystifies me, but they do. There is no strategic or spatial way in which the battle in “I Am Number Four” makes any sense.

It is movement and conflict edited together in incomprehensible chaos.

Where is Mogador? Why did nine of its citizens flee to Earth?

How did they do so? How is it they breathe our air, eat our food and make such expert use of our grooming products? Why didn’t the other Mogadorians say to hell with it and leave them on Earth?

What is a Mogadorian life span?

Given what we know about the time and distance involved in space travel, are these the same nine individuals who fled Mogador or their descendants after many generations in an interstellar ark? What’s the story on those spotlights in their hands? In all modesty, I think my questions are more entertaining than this movie.

ing with the Paradox of the Intended Accidental Consequences here, or what? “Unknown” is a skillfully photographed and acted film, and few actors are better than Liam Neeson at playing a man who has had the rug pulled out from under him. I was reminded of Roman Polanski’s “Frantic” (1988), in which Harrison Ford played a doctor attending a convention in Paris with his wife. In that movie, the wrong briefcase was picked up

at the airport, Ford stepped into the hotel shower, and when he stepped out, he found his wife had vanished.

“Frantic” wasn’t watertight, either. The basic situation (an innocent man trapped in a conspiracy he doesn’t understand) was a favorite of Hitchcock’s, but in his films every consequence is intended. I confess I felt involved in “Unknown” until it pulled one too many rabbits out of its hat. At some point a thriller

has to play fair. We’re not satisfied when characters find it necessary to come out of nowhere and explain to the hero the underlying reality of his situation.

Why does he need to know? Just bump him off. Whenever I hear one of those underlying reality speeches, I think there should be a crawl across the bottom of the screen: “This is actually the voice of the screenwriter desperately trying to explain the plot to himself.”

Anyway, maybe this is all just me talking. Maybe I’ve seen too many movies. “Unknown” isn’t a really bad movie, just an absurd one. It has its qualities from moment to moment. It left me with this thought: It’s a damn good thing Dr. Martin Harris got that blond Bosnian taxi driver. A lot of taxi drivers, you don’t get service like that.

— Synopsis from The Ski Channel The Associated Press

Javier Bardem, as Uxbal, and Hanaa Bouchaib, as Ana, star in the drama “Biutiful.”

You’ll think it ‘Biutiful’ Javier Bardem stirs real sympathy in emotional role of dying criminal

A

lejandro Gonzalez Inarritu’s “Biutiful” stars Javier Bardem as a lowlevel criminal in Barcelona who is told by his doctor he has very little time to live. He works as a middleman in an industry that makes fake luxury items in sweatshops and sells them to tourists through sidewalk vendors. You’ve seen the Gucci bags lined up on pavements. He’s also involved in importing and housing the undocumented Chinese workers who exist in poverty and manufacture the items. Both fake Gucci and real Gucci are made by poor people, but the real Guccis are made in China.

Uxbal’s life is a mess. He is separated from his bipolar wife. He tries to care for the sons he loves.

He is under urgent pressure from his criminal associates; he sees af-

ter the living conditions of his illegal immigrants. There is blood in his pee. He works in crime, but is not a bad man, and indeed under sentence of death he is moved, like the hero of Kurosawa’s “Ikiru,” to try to do something good.

One gesture he makes ends in tragic consequences. His workers are cold in their crowded basement, and he tries to alleviate that.

He also tries to make some money in the process. He’s devastated.

Surely few actors have faces that project sorrow more completely than Bardem.

Gonzalez Inarritu follows Uxbal’s last days with great intimacy, burying his camera in the seamy street life Uxbal lives, introducing many characters in sharp and colorful relief. He grants his characters the dignity of having feelings and reasons, and not simply be-

ROGER EBERT

“Biutiful” 148 minutes R, for disturbing images, language, some sexual content, nudity and drug use having as mechanical inhabitants of a crime plot.

The moral sense of the film is heartfelt, but not especially daring; by giving us a good man as his hero, Gonzalez Inarritu possibly weakens his case against the general sense of injustice in his film.

Uxbal is so wholly sympathetic that it’s hard for us to assign blame for his sins, and yet surely they are sins. Perhaps the idea is that he inhabits a world so lacking in good-

ness that his possibilities for choice are limited. Everyone he comes into contact with is flawed, with the exception of his children and Ige (Diaryatou Daff), a Senegalese woman he hires as a nanny for his children. And her love for them (and to a degree for him) is warm but almost obligatory in a story of this sort; one more unworthy character would be unthinkable.

What drew me into the film and engaged my sympathy was the presence of Bardem himself. He is a vastly human actor. He can be handsome, ugly, hard, tender or a monster (as he was in “No Country for Old Men”). Here he suffers, and is good, and suffers partly simply because he cannot do good things.

That isn’t a complex message, but I see films every day like “The Mechanic” that will entertain millions with cold, amoral violence, and sometimes it’s good to simply see a man who cares about the consequences of his actions.

But it’s a pity he didn’t err on the side of Shakespeare and not of “Shrek.” The pathos and wit of the Bard bests the sight-gags and one-liners of the Big Green Ogre every time.

Her life is shadowed by a smothering mother (Barbara Hershey), an autocratic director (Vincent Cassel), a venomous rival (Mila Kunis) and her deposed predecessor (Winona Ryder). A full-bore melodrama, told with passionate intensity, gloriously and darkly absurd. Directed by Darren Aronofsky. Rating: Three and a half stars. 108 minutes. (R) “The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader” — Edmund, Lucy and their nuisance of a cousin Eustace are drawn into a seafaring painting on the wall and find themselves on board the Dawn Treader and involved in a quest to save Narnia. Their challenge, finding the missing magical swords of the Lords of Telmar, involves a risky sea voyage that finally leads to the ominous Dark Island. The arbitrary plot is just one damn thing after another, but there are thrilling sequences involving a sea monster and a flying dragon, and it’s jolly fun for younger viewers. Rating: Three stars. 115 minutes. (PG) “The Eagle” — Channing Tatum plays a Roman centurion, circa A.D. 140, who determines to discover why the Ninth Legion, led by his father,

disappeared into Scotland and was never heard of again. Joined by a slave (Jamie Bell) whose life he saved, he ventures north on a secret mission. A rip-snorting adventure tale told on a somewhat plausible scale, with interesting characters and CGI replaced mostly by flesh and blood. Directed by Kevin Macdonald (“The King of Scotland”). Rating: Three stars. 114 minutes. (PG-13) “The Fighter” — Colorful supporting performances help, but a vaguely defined lead diminishes the power you’d expect in this story based on a real fighter. Mark Wahlberg plays Micky Ward, Christian Bale is his goofy crackhead half-brother, Melissa Leo is his possessive mom, and Amy Adams is the barmaid who knows he’ll never get anywhere until he frees himself of his family. The hero comes across as such a victim of lifelong domination that even when he wins, he feels like a loser. Directed

by David O. Russell. Rating: Two and a half stars. 115 minutes.

“The Green Hornet” — An almost unendurable demonstration of a movie with nothing to be about.

Pointless dialogue scenes go nowhere much too slowly, and then pointless action scenes go everywhere much too quickly. Seth Rogen deserves much of the blame.

He co-wrote and stars as Britt Reid, a spoiled little rich brat who grows up the same way; Jay Chou is Kato, the role Bruce Lee played on TV. Together, they devise a damn fool plan to fight crime by impersonating criminals. With Christoph Waltz (“Inglourious Basterds”) as the local crime lord and Cameron Diaz as young Reid’s would-be secretary with nothing to do. Rating: One star. 108 minutes. (PG-13) “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1” — Harry, Hermione and Ron have grown up and the horrors they met at Hogwarts are but nostalgic memories. They are cast out now into the vastness of the world, on their own, and Voldemort and his Death Eaters draw ever closer. Also drawing near is an equally unsettling phenomenon, sexual maturity. A handsome and sometimes harrowing film that will be completely unintelligible for anyone coming to the series for the first time. Rating: Three stars. 146 minutes. (PG-13) “Just Go With It” — This film’s story began as a French farce, became the Broadway hit “Cactus Flower,” was made into a 1969 film and now arrives gasping for breath in a witless retread with Adam Sandler, Jennifer Aniston and Brooklyn Decker. The characters are so stupid it doesn’t seem nice to laugh at them. Rating: One star. 116 minutes. (PG-13) “Justin Bieber: Never Say Never” — A heartfelt thank-you from 16-year-old singer Justin Bieber to his millions of fans, and an equally sincere plea for them not to forget him when the next doe-eyed cutie-pie rolls around, the concert film “Justin Bieber: Never Say Never” manages the neat trick of making a mass-marketed pop act seem like the kid next door.

No matter how far away he looks on that stage, Bieber belongs to you, and you and you. Though it’s essentially one long advertisement, “Never Say Never” doesn’t pretend to be anything else. Directed by Jon M. Chu (the “Step Up” danceflick franchise), the movie draws a rough narrative arc by following Bieber on his 2010 tour leading up to a sold-out concert at Madison Square Garden.

From previous page “The King’s Speech” — After the death of George V and the abdication of his brother Edward, Prince Albert (Colin Firth) becomes George VI, charged with leading Britain into World War II. He is afflicted with a torturous stammer, and his wife (Helena Bonham Carter) seeks out an unorthodox speech therapist (Geoffrey Rush) to treat him. Civilized and fascinating, this is the story of their unlikely relationship. (The R rating, for language, is absurd; this is an ideal film for teenagers.)

Rating: Four stars. 118 minutes. (R) “Little Fockers” — “Little Fockers” is possibly the last and certainly the least among the trio of comedies about the power struggle between a nebbishy male nurse and his menacing, control-freak father-inlaw. It’s a desultory, patchwork affair — competently made, comfortably played, but lacking the heart and wit that characterized, in varying degrees, in “Meet the Parents” and “Meet the Fockers.” Rating: One and a half stars. 97 minutes.

The following movies were released Feb. 15.

Ashton Kutcher and Natalie Portman star in the comedy “No Strings Attached.”

— Roger Moore, The Orlando Sentinel “The Mechanic” — Jason Statham plays a professional killer who specializes in murders that don’t seem like murders. Donald Sutherland is his aging and wise mentor, and Ben Foster is Sutherland’s son, whom Statham mentors in turn. A remake of the 1972 Charles Bronson film, well made by Simon West, but despite an affecting Sutherland performance, it lacks heart and sells its soul to action movie contrivances.

Rating: Two stars. 92 minutes. (R) “No Strings Attached” — Emma (Natalie Portman) and Adam (Ashton Kutcher), who met when they were 6, now meet when they’re maybe 26. They’re not looking for love, but after they sleep together they decide to be sex buddies as a matter of convenience. Good enough while it lasts, but then romance threatens, and the movie handles it with dreary sitcom predictability.

Rating: Two stars. 106 minutes. (R) “Rabbit Hole” — This is the tricky and very observant story of how a married couple is getting along eight months after their 4-year-old ran out into the street and was struck dead by a car. As a couple, they’ve reached that point of touchiness where nothing ever seems to be the right thing to say. What makes John Cameron Mitchell’s film so interesting is that it bravely investigates what you say then.

Sounds like a mournful dirge, but in fact is entertaining and surprisingly amusing. With Nicole Kidman and Aaron Eckhart. Rating: Three and a half stars. 91 minutes. (PG-13) “Sanctum” — A terrifying adventure shown in an incompetent way.

Scuba-diving cave explorers enter a vast system in New Guinea and are stranded. But this rich story opportunity is lost because of incoherent editing, poor 3-D technique, and the effect of 3-D dimming in the already dark and murky caves. A “James Cameron Production,” yes, but certainly not a “James Cameron Film.” Rating: One and a half stars. 109 minutes. (R) “Tangled” — Rapunzel, the girl locked

in a tower with only her long, golden locks for company, gets a sassy, spirited screen treatment from Disney with “Tangled,” an animated fairy tale musical from the Not Pixar corner of the company. Like most of Disney’s in-house cartoons, “Tangled” suffers most when compared to the best of Pixar. Animated musicals are only as good as their songs, and this one isn’t on a par with “Beauty and the Beast” or even “The Princess and the Frog.”

But the laughs make the tunes pass by quickly, the emotional moments pay off and this version of Rapunzel lets down its hair just enough to deserve a place of honor with all the other glorious Disney “princess” tales.

“Unstoppable” — A runaway train hurtles at 70 mph, and the movie is as relentless as the train. Denzel Washington and Chris Pine try to stop it, and Rosario Dawson is the hard-driving dispatcher. In terms of sheer craftsmanship, this is a superb film. Directed by Tony Scott.

DVD Extras: Featurette and audio commentary; Blu-ray Extras: Four additional featurettes. Rating: Three and a half stars. 98 minutes. (PG-13) “Waiting For ‘Superman’” — The new documentary by Davis Guggenheim (“An Inconvenient Truth”) says the American educational system is failing, and dramatizes this failure in a painfully direct way, saying what is wrong and what is right. He points to existing magnet schools that draw their students by random lottery and virtually guarantee high school graduation and acceptance by a college. He explains why bad teachers who cannot be fired are a national scandal. The film is alarming, fascinating, and in the end, hopeful. DVD and Bluray Extras: Five featurettes and deleted scenes. Rating: Three and a half stars. 102 minutes. (PG) “You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger” — Woody Allen considers several people who are worriedly scuttling about in search of happiness. This search is probably futile, the indulgent narrator

Josh Brolin stars as Roy in “You Will Meet A Tall Dark Stranger.” informs us, but we can watch it take place in their lives as urbane, well-off, literate Londoners; there are enviable locations; and the cinematography

by Vilmos Zsigmond is seductive.

It’s not much more than that, but pleasant and soothing. With Antonio Banderas, Josh Brolin, Anthony Hopkins, Gemma Jones, Freida Pinto, Naomi Watts and Lucy Punch. This film did not list any extras. Rating: Two and a half stars. 98 minutes. (R)

COMING UP: Movies scheduled for national release Feb. 22 include “Due Date” and “Get Low.” Check with local video stores for availability.
