An unlikely alliance after the DMV ordeal THE DMV
By Nick Grube The Bulletin
State officials don’t have a timeline for when they will pick a permanent location for Bend’s DMV field offices, but they continue to say citizens will have a role in the decision. Bend’s current DMV is on the north side of town in a building owned by the Oregon Department of Transportation. ODOT spokesman Dave Thompson said the state is exploring if that location, at 63085 N. U.S. Highway 97, could be permanent. Thompson said the building and property would likely need some modifications. See DMV / A4

Bend-based Nashelle Jewelry is a self-described phenomenon in the fashion industry, with products for sale in boutiques and other retail outlets around the world. The company recently applied for a loan from the city of Bend to buy a new computer server to help meet demand. On Wednesday, the city helped out with a $6,975 “forgivable” loan, which the company will not have to repay if it creates the number of jobs promised. Bend and Deschutes County have touted business loan programs they created last year as a way to encourage businesses to relocate or expand in the county, and they approved $68,975 more in loans last week. So far, all the loans have gone to companies already operating in Deschutes County, some of which were already in the process of expanding when they received loans. The loan agreements include a “claw-back” provision that allows the county and city to recover part or all of their money from any business that creates fewer jobs than promised or none at all. City councilors and county commissioners said the loans they have made are in line with their initial vision for the program, although one city councilor said they are not the most efficient economic development program.

ricket Kadoch is not a shy person. The 41-year-old mother of two lives in Bend’s RiverRim neighborhood and was one of the most vocal opponents of the DMV’s potential move to the Brookswood Meadow Plaza. She has spoken passionately at several meetings with state representatives and city councilors about her objections. She’s even directly challenged the head of the statewide agency, Tom McClellan, about the merits of bringing the DMV to her backyard. But on Feb. 10, Kadoch was hesitant. She had invited some of her neighbors, many of whom had stood next to her during months of protests, to the River Canyon Estates Clubhouse to pitch an idea. And it was one that would have been blasphemous just two months before. Kadoch was asking the group to set aside their ill will toward the DMV and rally behind the Brookswood Meadow Plaza.
In particular, she wanted them to support the shopping center’s owner, Scott Lovejoy, whose last name graces the facade of the grocery store that many of them had boycotted during the DMV protests. “We’re trying to get some healing done here,” she told the group. “I think the DMV sort of derailed all of us.” Kadoch is now a consultant for the plaza. She has an office at the shopping center and even has her own Brookswood Meadow business cards. The 50,000-square-foot plaza, located near the edge of the city limits, is largely vacant today. Aside from the grocery store and Kadoch’s office, the only tenants are a coffee shop, a preschool and fitness center. It’s the somewhat obscure location that is partly to blame for the vacancies. After months of fighting with the DMV and Lovejoy, Kadoch is now charged with rejuvenating the plaza’s image — and getting her neighbors to support those efforts. See Plaza / A4

WASHINGTON — As prodemocracy uprisings spread across the Middle East, the rulers of Saudi Arabia — the region’s great bulwark of religious and political conservatism — are feeling increasingly isolated and concerned that the United States may no longer be a reliable backer, officials and diplomats say. Saudi Arabia is far less vulnerable to democracy movements than other countries in the region, thanks to its vast oil wealth, its powerful religious establishment and the popularity of its king. But the country’s rulers were shaken by the forced departure of Egypt’s president, a close and valued ally. They are anxiously monitoring the continuing protests in neighboring Bahrain and in Yemen, with which Saudi Arabia shares a porous 1,100-mile border. Those concerns come on top of long-festering worries about the situation in Iraq, where the toppling of Saddam Hussein has empowered Iran, Saudi Arabia’s great rival and nemesis.

Kadoch and Scott Lovejoy at C.E. Lovejoy’s Market last week. Lovejoy, who also lives in the RiverRim neighborhood of southwest Bend, opened up the market in June. Soon after the DMV’s announcement in August that it was moving its Bend offices to the same plaza, many of the people who frequented the market started shopping elsewhere. “The vigor and the duration of the opposition surprised me,” Lovejoy says. Now, says Kadoch, “we’re trying to get some healing done here.”
HILLSBORO — Like many these days, Shiva sits around too much, eating rich, fatty foods and sipping sugary drinks. He has the potbelly to prove it, one that nearly touches the floor — when he’s on all fours, that is. Shiva belongs to a colony of monkeys who have been fattened up to help scientists study the twin human epidemics of obesity and diabetes. The overweight monkeys also test new drugs aimed at treating those conditions. “We are trying to induce the couch-potato style,” said Kevin Grove, who directs the “obese resource” at the Oregon National Primate Research Center here. “We believe that mimics the health issues we face in the United States today.” See Fat monkeys / A7

Scientist to met with deadly force BP: Oil spill Protests Cycle of suppression: Security forces fire on funeral marches, creating more funerals still lingers TURMOIL IN THE MUSLIM WORLD
Bulletin wire reports
By Seth Borenstein The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Oil from the BP spill remains stuck on the bottom of the Gulf of Mexico, according to a top scientist’s video and slides that she says demonstrate the oil isn’t degrading as hoped and has decimated life on parts of the sea floor. That report is at odds with a recent report by the BP spill compensation czar that said nearly all will be well by 2012. At a science conference here Saturday, marine scientist Samantha Joye of the University of Georgia aired early results of her December submarine dives around the BP spill site. She went to places she had visited in the summer, and expected the oil and residue from oil-munching microbes would be gone by then. It wasn’t. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration chief Jane Lubchenco announced Saturday the start of a Gulf restoration planning process to get the Gulf back to the condition it was on April 19, the day before the spill. That program would eventually be paid for by BP and other parties deemed responsible for the spill. Earlier this month, Kenneth Feinberg, the government’s oil compensation fund czar, said based on research he commissioned, he figured the Gulf of Mexico would almost fully recover by 2012 — something Joye and Lubchenco said isn’t right. “I’ve been to the bottom. I’ve seen what it looks like with my own eyes. It’s not going to be fine by 2012,” Joye said.
PIRACY
U.S. weighs options as 4 are kidnapped The Associated Press MOGADISHU, Somalia — An American couple that has sailed the world with a yacht full of Bibles was hijacked by Somali pirates, and the U.S. said Saturday it is assessing possible options. Pirates say the yacht will make landfall in Somalia today, which would dramatically reduce the chances of a fast rescue. A British sailing couple hijacked by pirates was held hostage in a stiflingly hot Somali region for more than a year. Pirates hijacked the yacht Quest on Friday, two days after a Somali pirate was sentenced to 33 years in prison by a New York court for the 2009 hijacking of the Maersk Alabama. That case ended in a spectacular rescue when Navy sharpshooters killed two pirates holding the ship’s captain, Richard Phillips. The Quest is the home of Jean and Scott Adam, a couple from California who has been sailing around the world since December 2004, according to a website the Adams keep. Two other Americans were also believed to be on board. Matt Goshko, a spokesman at the U.S. Embassy in Nairobi, Kenya, which oversees Somalia, said reports indicate there are four U.S. citizens aboard the Quest. Pirates have increased attacks off the coast of East Africa in recent years, despite an international flotilla of warships dedicated to protecting vessels and stopping the pirate assaults. Multimilliondollar ransoms are fueling the trade, and the prices for releasing a ship and hostages have risen sharply. Pirates currently hold 30 ships and more than 660 hostages, not counting the attack against the Quest. After the Maersk Alabama was hijacked in April 2009, Navy sharpshooters fired on pirates holding Phillips, killing two of them. The only pirate to survive was Abdiwali Abdiqadir Muse, who was sentenced to 33 years in prison last week. There were no indications, however, that the U.S. military would similarly rescue the latest kidnapped Americans.
CAIRO — Security forces in Libya and Yemen fired on pro-democracy demonstrators Saturday as the two hard-line regimes struck back against the wave of protests that has already toppled autocrats in Egypt and Tunisia. At least 15 died when police shot into crowds of mourners in Libya’s second-largest city, a hospital official said. Even as Bahrain’s king bowed to international pressure and withdrew tanks to allow demonstrators to retake a symbolic square in the capital, Libya’s Moammar Gadhafi and Yemen’s Ali Abdullah Saleh made clear they plan to stamp out opposition and not be dragged down by the reform movements that have grown in nations from Algeria to Djibouti to Jordan. In Libya, as thousands of protesters returned Saturday to a courthouse in Benghazi, Libya’s second-largest city that has become an epicenter of a challenge to four decades of Gadhafi’s rule, a deadly cycle was emerging: Security forces fire on funeral marches, killing more protesters, creating more funerals. “Today, it’s a real massacre out there,” one resident said. Human Rights Watch, based in New York, said 84 were dead in protests that had shaken Libya, a North African nation rich in oil reserves. There were more reports of violence on Saturday, but details, including casualty numbers, were almost impossible to verify in a deeply isolated country that remains largely off limits to foreign journalists and, as part of the government crackdown, effectively cut off from the Internet. The government response in Libya underlined an unintended consequence of the success of uprisings in Tunisia and Egypt, where protests forced the departure of longserving authoritarian leaders. In Libya, Yemen and Algeria, the governments have quickly resorted to violence to crush unrest before it gathers momentum that might threaten their grip on power. The crackdown in Libya has proven the bloodiest, drawing criticism from the United States and European allies. Opposition websites reported that later Saturday security forces fired on mourners burying protesters killed a day before in the city.

As partners in the revolution, Egypt’s women foresee change By Kathy Lally The Washington Post
CAIRO — During 18 days of demonstrating for freedom, Egyptian men and women walked into Tahrir Square separate, divided by gender as they passed through checkpoints. Men were scrutinized by men, and women had their bags and person searched by other women. There were several lines of men to every one for the fewer numbers of women. Beyond the checkpoints, distinctions vanished and they stood side by side. Now, as they leave the square behind them, they want to use the strength

they revealed to address longstanding inequities, to make sure women have the equality in day-to-day life that they earned in Tahrir Square. “It was amazing to see men and women together when we took to the streets,” said Marwa Faroak, a political activist. “A lot of people were saying Tahrir Square was the future of Egypt, men and women equal, fighting for freedom. And now we have to translate this into action.” Women are far better off in Egypt than some parts of the Arab world. There are no religious police enforcing dress codes as in Iran, or prohibitions
against driving as in Saudi Arabia. But Egyptian women are greatly underrepresented in public life and inferior to men before the law. They are members of parliament but have few seats. They occupy many professions but not all. Soha Abdelaty, deputy director of the Egyptian Initiative for Personal Rights, said Egyptians are building a new country, and women must be at the forefront so they can be effective advocates for their interests. She is optimistic but not yet ready to predict that women will indeed achieve more rights. “There’s a long way to go,” she said.

Saudi Arabia Continued from A1 The recent illness of Saudi Arabia’s King Abdullah, 87, who is expected to return to the kingdom this week after an absence of more than three months for treatment in the United States and Morocco, has reinforced the sense of insecurity. “The Saudis are completely encircled by the problem, from Jordan to Iraq to Bahrain to Yemen,” said one Arab diplomat, voicing a view that is common in the halls of power in Riyadh, the capital. “Saudi Arabia is the last heavyweight U.S. ally in the region facing Iran.” He spoke on the condition of anonymity in line with diplomatic protocol. The Saudis tend to see any threat to the established order in the region as a gain for their nemesis Iran and its allies Syria and Hezbollah. They have grown increasingly worried that the Obama administration is drifting from this perspective and supporting movements for change whose outcome cannot be guaranteed. Those worries were heightened by the crisis in Egypt. King Abdullah had at least two phone conversations with President Barack Obama to convey his concerns in the weeks before Hosni Mubarak’s ouster, and the last conversation ended in sharp disagreement, according to officials familiar with the calls. Saudi officials have tried to appear unruffled. On Wednesday evening, Prince Nayef bin Abdel Aziz, the interior minister, invited a group of prominent intellectuals and journalists in Riyadh to discuss the recent turmoil. He struck a confident tone, saying that Saudi Arabia is “immune” to the protests because it is guided by religious law that its citizens will not question. “Don’t compare us to Egypt or Tunisia,” the prince said, according to one of the attendees, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because the meeting was meant to be off the record. But the attendee said he and others were skeptical and suspected the prince was merely hiding his anxieties.
Trouble on the border The Saudi and pan-Arab news media have been cautiously supportive of the uprisings in Egypt and Tunisia, with a number of opinion pieces welcoming the call for nonviolent change. That may change now that protests and violence have seized Bahrain, which lies just across a 15-mile causeway from the Saudi border. Bahrain is a far more threatening prospect. Bahrain’s restive population is mostly Shiite, and it is adjacent to the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia, an important oil-producing area where the Shiite population has long complained of unfair treatment by the puritanical Saudi establishment. They feel a strong kinship with their coreligionists across the water. “The Bahrain uprising may give more courage to the Shia in the Eastern Province to protest,” one Saudi diplomat said. “It might then escalate to the rest of the country.” Most analysts say that is unlikely. Although Saudi Arabia shares many of the conditions that bred the democracy uprisings — including autocracy, corruption and a large population of educated young people without access to suitable jobs — its people are cushioned by oil wealth and culturally resistant to change. Moreover, analysts tend to agree that Saudi Arabia would never allow the Bahraini monarchy to be overthrown. “Saudi Arabia did not build a causeway to Bahrain just so that Saudis could party on weekends,” said Toby Jones, an expert on Saudi Arabia at Rutgers University. “It was designed for moments like this, for keeping Bahrain under control.” Still, the Saudis are closely watching American diplomatic gestures toward Bahrain. Any wavering of American support for Bahrain’s Sunni monarchy, analysts say, would provoke a deep sense of betrayal and could create an unprecedented rift in a partnership with the U.S. that has been a pillar of Saudi policy since 1945. “Saudi Arabia has always had a fear of encirclement, whether with communism or with Iranian influence,” said Rachel Bronson, an expert on Saudi Arabia at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs. “Bahrain to me is the tipping point for when this becomes really unsettling.”

70,000 SWARM WISCONSIN CAPITOL
Just before recess, House votes to slash almost every area of federal spending By David M. Herszenhorn New York Times News Service
WASHINGTON — The House vote early Saturday to slash more than $60 billion from the federal budget over the next seven months shows how powerfully the grassroots, anti-spending fervor of the November elections is driving the new Republican majority’s efforts to shrink the size and scope of government. It puts the two parties on a path to a succession of showdowns over the deficit and the nation’s growing debt. The bill would impose sharp spending reductions in nearly every area of government, including domestic programs, foreign aid and even some military projects. The vote, 235-189, was a victory for the large, boisterous class of fiscally conservative Republican freshmen that is fiercely determined to change the ways of Washington and that forced party leaders to undertake far bigger cuts than originally planned. With Congress on a weeklong Presidents Day recess, lawmakers will return with just four days to agree on a temporary extension of the stopgap measure now financing the government. The Democratic-controlled Senate has signaled it will not consider anything approaching the scale of cuts approved by the House, setting up a standoff that each side has warned could lead to a shutdown of the federal government early next month. Saturday’s predawn vote was also the opening salvo in what is likely to be a long, bitter clash of philosophical ideas about fiscal policy on Capitol Hill, in statehouses around the country and

Republicans seemed to grow more excited as the final vote neared shortly after 4:30 a.m. “We have a mandate from the American people to cut spending,” declared Rep. Judy Biggert of Illinois. But the White House threatened to veto the bill even before it was approved. The fight in the weeks ahead will focus paying for government operations through the end of the fiscal year on Sept. 30, and the need within the next few months to raise the federal debt ceiling. But the push by Republicans for spending cuts and new austerity is already shaking state capitals, including Madison, Wis., and Columbus, Ohio, where labor unions have begun protesting efforts to weaken their collective bargaining rights. The House approved its spending measure after four days and nights of free-wheeling floor debate in which hundreds of amendments were put forward. GOP leaders lost votes on some amendments, in what they said was a testament to their commitment to allow a more open legislative process than their recent predecessors.

The Wisconsin state Capitol in Madison was thrown further into political chaos as protests swelled for a fifth day, with nearly 70,000 turning out Saturday for the largest yet. Supporters of Republican efforts to scrap the union rights of state workers challenged pro-labor protesters face-to-face for the first time, and GOP leaders insisted again Saturday there was no room for compromise. A few dozen police officers stood between supporters of Republican Gov. Scott Walker on the muddy east lawn of the Capitol and the much

MARJAH, Afghanistan — Schools that the Taliban closed have reopened in this southern Afghan town, and some girls are even back in the classrooms. The wheat and cotton crops are flourishing, and poppy cultivation is way down. A year after a major Americanled operation to oust the Islamist insurgents from their one-time stronghold, security has improved dramatically, according to Afghan officials and U.S. troops, and townspeople say they no longer live in terror. With some 2,000 Marines stationed in and around Marjah, the militants have been pushed to the fringe of the area, and the hustle and bustle of everyday life has returned, helped by a huge injection of aid and development projects by the Marines. Marjah residents no longer fear meeting Americans, and they now routinely pass on intelligence about Taliban movements. “Security is good now. Life is better,” said Gul Ahmed, a 34year-old wheat farmer in northeast Marjah, close to a U.S. Marine patrol base. “Bad people like the Taliban cannot come here now. ... The Taliban took money from us. They took food from us. They forced us to go with them to other provinces to fight.” If the relatively peaceful conditions hold, Marjah, in Helmand province, could become a symbol of counterinsurgency at work in Afghanistan. It also would bear out the claim by U.S.-led international forces that a “surge” of 30,000 additional American troops last year has stemmed the insurgency in its southern heartland, Helmand and the neighboring province of Kandahar. But there are plenty of doubters, who say the Marines have proved only that they can hold areas with massive U.S. forces. Locals appear to have little faith — as yet, anyway — in Afghan forces’ ability to take over.
larger group of pro-labor demonstrators who surrounded them. The protest was peaceful as both sides exchanged chants of “Pass the bill! Pass the bill!” and “Kill the bill! Kill the bill!” One legislator had deemed the scene as “dangerous,” but police officials described no serious problems as the day went on. The obvious tensions seemed to be playing out with only an occasional exchange of angry words, hand gestures and spittle. Wisconsin, like many other states, faces a multibillion-dollar budget shortfall.

Revocable trusts, sometimes called living trusts, are commonly used in an estate plan to avoid the probate process upon death. Generally this type of trust allows the person that established the trust, often referred to as the Trustor, to have access to the assets in the trust during the Trustor’s lifetime and to change the terms of the trust at any time. Because the Trustor has these powers, the law will not protect the assets in the trust from the Trustor’s creditors, and creditors will be able to pursue those assets the same as if the assets were owned outright by the Trustor.

My husband has a degenerative disease that may require care in a nursing home in the near future. We have assets consisting of annuities in the approximate amount of $200,000.

Yes, there are many ways under current Medicaid law, the non-ill spouse, referred to as the “community spouse” is entitled to keep one half of the married couple’s available assets up to a maximum of $109,560. The law also provides ways to protect the remaining assets for the benefit and future needs of the community spouse. One way would be to annuitize the annuities based on your life expectancy providing you with additional income that would not be counted towards your husband’s Medicaid eligibility. The annuity would also have to be irrevocable, non-transferable and name the Sate of Oregon as primary beneficiary. You should, however, only undertake such planning under the guidance of an experienced Elder Law attorney.

Plaza Continued from A1 “We all want the same thing,” Kadoch said. “If we can rally around the plaza, that only serves the community.” This won’t be easy. When the DMV announced last August it was moving from its current location on Bend’s north side to the Brookswood Meadow Plaza, there was a loud outcry from southwest Bend neighborhoods, particularly the RiverRim community. Many residents felt the plaza
DMV Continued from A1 “We’re in the act of determining if that location would work physically. If it would, then we’ll start talking to the community about if it should,” Thompson said. “... That was the promise we made when we backed away from Brookswood.” The DMV moved to its current location, meant to be temporary, in December 2009 after its longtime lease on its old location on Emkay Drive expired. In late August, the DMV announced it was moving again — to the Brookswood Meadow Plaza in southwest Bend. The announcement set off a firestorm in the community, particularly in the RiverRim neighborhood where the plaza is located. Many residents didn’t like the new location because they felt it was not centrally located, while community members in RiverRim didn’t like it because they felt the impact of extra traffic and parking would be detrimental to the area. After months of protests, the DMV announced in December it was terminating its lease with the Brookswood Meadow Plaza, citing delays in being able to move into the shopping center. The DMV sent a letter to the owner of the plaza, Scott Lovejoy, telling him it was still calculating its damages for his failure to deliver the property on time. Thompson said he could not comment on that portion of the termination, saying it was related to pending litigation. Lovejoy said he has not heard anything else from the state on that matter. Despite his attorneys sending a response letter to the termination that threatened a lawsuit, he said he has no plans of lodging an official complaint against the DMV in the courts.

was in an out-of-the-way location for most Bend citizens who needed to use the DMV. They also believed the increased traffic would ruin their peaceful neighborhood, where many of the streets allow parking only on one side, and the roadways are maintained with homeowners association dues. But more than that, some felt they had been taken advantage of by a developer who promised them a shopping center that would make life more convenient in their remote part of town by providing restaurants and ser-
A yearlong fight over the DMV’s Brookswood site December 2009: The Department of Motor Vehicles’ lease for its Emkay Drive field office location expires, forcing the agency to move to a temporary location on Oregon Department of Transportation property on Bend’s north side. Aug. 24, 2010: The DMV signs a lease and plans to move into the Brookswood Meadow Plaza by the end of the year. The announcement concerns many in the RiverRim community that surrounds the plaza. Sept. 15: Bend city councilors decide to send a letter to then-Gov. Ted Kulongoski expressing disagreement over the new location. The governor’s office responded to the letter by saying Kulongoski would do nothing. Sept. 22: The RiverRim Coffee House shutters its doors; the owner says the business was struggling more than usual as a result of boycotts. Someone else bought the coffee shop and later reopened it. Oct. 6: An attorney representing the RiverRim Community Association delivers a letter to the city asking it to review the parking impact of the DMV’s moving to the plaza before issuing building permits. Oct. 25: The association files a lawsuit in Deschutes County Circuit Court alleging the state Department of Administrative Services didn’t follow proper protocol when placing the DMV at the plaza. That lawsuit was later rescinded after members of the homeowners association claimed it was not valid since there was not a vote of the membership. Nov. 8: Bend’s Planning Commission approves a change in the city’s development code that will prevent government offices from moving into places like the Brookswood Meadow Plaza in the future. City councilors adopt the change a month later, knowing it will not have a retroactive impact on the current DMV situation. Nov. 13: The city decides to reevaluate the plaza’s parking to make sure there are enough spaces for the DMV. Nov. 20: RiverRim residents and the “Stop the DMV” group stage an event at the plaza to show how many vehicles the DMV would bring to the shopping center on a given day. Dec. 8: The DMV terminates its lease with the plaza, citing delays in getting the property ready to move in.
C OV ER S T OR I ES vices that they normally would have had to drive several miles to get to. Even though many of the people who boycotted C.E. Lovejoy’s Market have started shopping there again, there’s lingering mistrust and bruised feelings. At the Feb. 10 meeting, some RiverRim residents said they still blamed Lovejoy for trying to bring the DMV to the plaza without first consulting the community. One even said he expected a written apology from Lovejoy before making amends. Bill Binion, vice president of the RiverRim Community Association, was at that meeting and was also one of the people at the forefront of the DMV protests. He said last week that even though he witnessed a lot of vitriol firsthand during the protests, many people are willing to give the plaza another chance, if only to keep it afloat for themselves. For the people who still harbor anger toward the DMV or Lovejoy, he said, it’s just going to be a matter of time before those feelings dissipate. “I think it’s time for everybody to move on, and I think that’s the case,” Binion said, adding that he started shopping at the market again. “Looking back, I can understand why (Lovejoy) did what he did. But I think he didn’t realize how it would affect the community.”
C.E. Lovejoy’s Market Scott Lovejoy moved to the RiverRim neighborhood six years ago from Southern California. After a float down the Deschutes River several years ago, he was approached by a friend who gave him the idea to open up a shopping center in the RiverRim neighborhood. At the time it seemed like a good idea, he said, especially considering all he ever wanted was a nearby pizza parlor that would deliver during his family movie nights. When he started building the plaza, Bend’s economy was booming, and there were several tenants lined up to move in. There was also a grocery store chain dedicated to opening up in the shopping center when it was completed. But once the recession took hold, things soured. Tenants started backing out, and the grocery store, which was supposed to be the anchor, decided not to come to southwest Bend. It was at that point Lovejoy decided to do something several generations of Lovejoys before him did — open his own grocery store. C.E. Lovejoy’s Market opened on June 16. According to Lovejoy, business was good. Everyone in the neighborhood seemed to be shopping at the new market. “It was just what we envisioned,” Lovejoy said. “We were on a roll. The neighbors just loved us.” But then he said the DMV came “out of the blue” and offered to sign a long-term lease for a spot in the plaza. Lovejoy said it seemed like a good idea at the time, because it would bring more traffic to his struggling venture. He just never expected it would get the reaction it did. “The vigor and the duration of the opposition surprised me,” Lovejoy said. “It was very emotionally troubling. You’d have to be a very hard person to not be troubled by it.” Soon after announcing the DMV was coming to the Brookswood Meadow Plaza, many of the people who frequented the market started shopping elsewhere. Protests over the new location started picking up steam, and pretty soon

people were contacting Lovejoy directly. Lovejoy and his son, Travis, who is also his business partner, began getting messages on their home answering machines. They refused to share some of what was said, but they mentioned it wasn’t something their children should have been subjected to when they hit “play” on the machine. For Travis Lovejoy, this was baffling. It was the first time his father had undertaken such a development, and now it seemed to be backfiring on him. “I know what a good person he is,” he said. “To see or hear people talk about him as a greedy landlord or a greedy developer, it’s hurtful to me.”
to support the plaza. What once seemed like an impossible partnership is now a natural pairing. One of the tactics is to engage the community to see what it is people want in the shopping center, whether it’s a dentist’s office, a pizza place or a 1950s diner. The Lovejoys want to start coordinating with the neighborhood associations to hold special events at the plaza and create a buzz. Kadoch is a big part of those plans. She has connections to many people throughout southwest Bend as part of her involvement fighting the DMV. She will also spend her time at the plaza
trying to find new tenants in addition to her attempts to win the hearts and minds of residents. So far, the plaza hasn’t seen any new tenants move in. It’s still largely vacant. But Kadoch said she feels a shift in momentum, if only in the attitudes of the people who once protested with her against the DMV. She said people seem ready to pull together. Her relationship with Lovejoy is also something she didn’t expect. Before she met him, she was nervous. Now when they’re together, smiles pass between them easily as they work toward a common goal of mending relationships. “Did this fracture the community? Yeah, it did,” Kadoch said. “(But) this is about moving on and moving forward. It’s our responsibility as a community.” Nick Grube can be reached at 541-633-2160 or at ngrube@bendbulletin.com.

Loans Continued from A1 Companies that were awarded loans last week by either government could not be reached for comment. The city and county partnered with the nonprofit Economic Development for Central Oregon to administer the program, which is aimed at companies that export goods or services outside the region. The Deschutes County Commission on Wednesday approved a $50,000 loan for Navis. The Bend-based company develops Web-based software that allows hotels and resorts to gather information on customers and tracks marketing efforts. The company is on track to exceed its budgeted revenue by 9 percent this fiscal year and plans to increase its work force from 65 employees to 92 in the next two years, according to its loan application. The company plans to use the loan to purchase additional workstations and software licenses so it can add employees in the larger office where it recently moved. The commission also voted to loan $12,000 to Bend-based DENT Instruments. The company manufactures and designs devices to track energy usage for energy research, efficiency and conservation and, according to its loan application, is experiencing rapid growth. DENT Instruments plans to go from 15 employees to 21 by the second quarter of this year. When the company applied for the loan, it was in escrow to purchase a new building four times larger than its current facility. Business loan funds will help the company furnish the new building with desks, computers and test equipment, according to the application. Eric Strobel, Bend economic development manager for EDCO, said that although DENT and other businesses would likely have expanded without the small loans, the funds made those transitions easier. The county’s loan to DENT is part of a package that also includes state support, and that adds up, Strobel said. “Would DENT not move to the new building if the county wasn’t helping? No, it probably still would,” Strobel said. “Would it be as easy, would it be the same kind of move for them? No.” As for Bend’s loan to Nashelle, Strobel said the server and other IT improvements it will pay for will boost Nashelle’s website and marketing efforts. “It basically is expanding their customer base,” Strobel said. Nashelle employs 28 people and plans to add five jobs this year, according to its loan application. Deschutes County drew most of the $300,000 for the loan program from its general fund after the county received a windfall of one-time foreclosure-related revenue. So far, the county has awarded loans totaling $182,000, although Rocky Mountain Products of Redmond has not claimed its $56,000 loan because of a disagreement over the terms. County commissioners will review the program and possibly add more money to it during May budget discussions. “We’re making a statement that we support the growth (companies) have,” County Commis-
Uganda’s leader takes big lead in re-election bid New York Times News Service KAMPALA, Uganda — President Yoweri Museveni appeared to take a commanding early lead Saturday in the presidential election here, capturing about 69 percent of the vote, with about 77 percent of polling sites reporting, a government website shows. His nearest rival, Kizza Besigye, a retired army colonel, was a distant second with about 25 percent of the vote, as of 3 a.m. local time. If the results hold, Museveni, who has held office for 25 years, would appear to be on his way to winning another five-year term. Besigye, running for president for a third time, polled strongly in the cosmopolitan capital of Kampala, as well as other key regions, but the president was carrying much of rural Uganda in landslides. Both Museveni and Besigye said that they expected to win the election. Besigye has threatened to lead Egypt-style protests if he believes the vote was rigged. The voting Friday was largely peaceful, despite a modest number of irregularities and sporadic violence.
sioner Alan Unger said. County Commissioner Tammy Baney said it’s difficult to know whether companies that received loans would have pursued less ambitious expansions without the small loans. “I think it’s debatable what level of expansion they would have expanded to without those funds,” Baney said Wednesday. “Would it mean one less job? Would it mean less space? ... The dollars are meant to get them closer to where they need to be sooner.” Officials could have dedicated
the money to providing other county services, but the one-time funds would eventually run out and are not sustainable, Baney said. County Commissioner Tony DeBone, who took office in January, said he wants to explore the possibility of using the money to help startup companies, although he said such a proposition could be risky. In Bend, the City Council set aside $100,000 for the loans. The money came from a pot of more than $1 million the city received
from Cascade Natural Gas Corp. last fall, after an audit revealed the utility inadvertently shorted Bend on franchise fees through two decades of billing errors. So far, the City Council has spent $67,975 from the fund, including $34,000 paid to Visit Bend for a tourism marketing campaign to entice visitors to move their companies to Bend or simply make the city their primary residences. City Councilor Jim Clinton said the loans are not the most efficient economic development strategy, but the program is benign because
THE BULLETIN • Sunday, February 20, 2011 A5 of the claw-back provisions and the city’s transparency in posting loan applications online. “These kinds of direct subsidies to business are OK to some extent, but they’re not at the top of my priority list for economic development,” Clinton said. He said his proposal for a research center that would link high-tech companies with investors and universities and provide business development would “lead to much more substantial economic growth.” Recently elected City Councilor Scott Ramsay said that although
he was not on the council when the loan program was created, he supports it because the loans show Bend’s support for businesses. “My personal platform is one of helping existing business have a better relationship with the city and an environment in which they can grow,” Ramsay said. “For me, I think it’s a win-win situation, and I’m happy that the fund exists.” Hillary Borrud can be reached at 541-617-7829 or at hborrud@bendbulletin.com.

Minorities, hit hardest, now most optimistic By Michael A. Fletcher and Jon Cohen The Washington Post
Despite severe losses during the recession, the majority of African-Americans see the economy improving and are confident that their financial prospects will improve soon. That optimism, shared to a lesser degree by Hispanics, stands in stark contrast to the deeper pessimism expressed by a majority of whites. In general, whites are more satisfied with their personal financial situations but also more
sour about the nation’s prospects. Those are among the findings of a new Washington Post-Kaiser Family Foundation-Harvard University poll that probed attitudes in the wake of a downturn that more than doubled unemployment and wiped away nearly a fifth of Americans’ net worth. African-Americans and Hispanics were more likely to be left broke, jobless and concerned that they lack the skills needed to shape their economic futures. But they also remained the most hopeful the economy would soon right
N B
itself and allow them to prosper. Whites, also buffeted by the long recession, are the most resentful of government action and far less optimistic about what is ahead financially, both for their own families and for the country as a whole. Whites are also far less likely than blacks or Hispanics to think their children will be better off than they themselves are now. And among those who have shifted their lifestyles over the course of the economic downturn, whites are the most likely to see those changes as permanent.
MOSCOW — It once seemed as if Nikita Tikhonov was positioning himself to join this country’s political elite: He attended the prestigious Moscow State University, founded a right-wing political magazine called the Russian Way and worked as a campaign aide for a parliamentary candidate. Tikhonov, a self-declared patriot with a passion for Russian history, refused to smoke or drink alcohol, insisting that a blend of temperance and civic engagement might help revive his country. Now, Tikhonov is on trial for murder. Prosecutors contend that his right-wing intellectual pursuits mutated into nationalistic hatred that led him to kill a prominent human-rights lawyer and a young journalist two years ago. Tikhonov initially confessed to the crime, though he now says he is innocent. Testimony in his trial, which includes his wife as a co-defendant, is scheduled to begin Monday. Whatever his original path, Tikhonov has now come to embody the increasing radicalization of Russia’s nationalist movement, his true nature, perhaps, revealed more in the tattoos covering his body, including one on his left shoulder of a cross ringed with swastikas. Like Tikhonov, 30, many of the extreme nationalists are young, educated and middle class. They are angry at myriad enemies, real and perceived, and are earning a worsening reputation for widespread political violence. One of the most widely pub-

Nikita Tikhonov, a nationalist suspected in two killings, sits in a cage for a hearing last month in Moscow. licized cases came in December, in the wake of the fatal shooting of an ethnic Russian soccer fan here by a man from Russia’s North Caucasus region. Thousands of young people began an extended riot close to Red Square, chanting “Russia for Russians” and racial slurs. They threw rocks at police officers and then scattered. Later, groups of ethnic Russian men and some women attacked non-Slavic minorities on side streets and subways. Several people were reported killed. Ethnic Russians make up about 80 percent of Russia’s 142 million
people, sharing the country with more than 100 ethnic groups, many of which make up Russia’s large Muslim community. Russia also has the largest immigrant population in the world after the United States, numbering as many as 10 million, mostly from former Soviet republics in the South Caucasus and Central Asia. Tikhonov is accused of killing two such enemies. One, Stanislav Markelov, a lawyer, for years pressed the authorities to have perpetrators of hate crimes brought up on charges, leading to the imprisonment of several. The other, Anastasia Baburova, a freelance journalist with Novaya Gazeta, the country’s leading opposition newspaper, wrote about nationalists. They were shot to death together at close range in January 2009 in a brazen, daylight attack just a short walk from the Kremlin. Prosecutors have charged Tikhonov’s common-law wife, Yevgenia Khasis, with aiding the attack, and she is also now on trial. Investigators say that Markelov was the intended target. His investigation into the 2006 stabbing death of an anti-fascist activist led to Tikhonov being named a suspect. Though Tikhonov denied involvement — and prosecutors later dropped the charges against him — he fled.

U.S. appeals ruling on warrantless wiretaps SAN FRANCISCO — The Obama administration has appealed a federal judge’s ruling that found agents under President George W. Bush illegally wiretapped a suspected Islamic terrorist group without a warrant. The Justice Department filed a notice of appeal late Friday with the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco challenging the ruling by Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker. The Obama administration had defended the case before Walker but had not said whether it would appeal his wiretapping decision. The case involved the Al-Haramain Islamic Foundation, a nowdefunct charity based in Oregon that the U.S. government has classified as a terrorist organization. In March, Walker ruled that federal agents had violated the 1978 law by wiretapping without a warrant. He awarded the two attorneys $40,800 in damages in December for nearly seven months of surveillance, and also ordered the government to pay Al-Haramain $2.5 million in attorneys’ fees.
Nevada floating cuts for gambling addicts LAS VEGAS — Treatment programs for gambling addicts in the nation’s casino capital are in jeopardy as Nevada lawmakers look for ways to close the state’s huge budget shortfall. More than 5 percent of Nevada’s residents are either pathological
or problem gamblers, according to a 2002 study — almost twice the rate of the nation’s overall population. Since 2005, a $2 fee on slot machines has helped pay for research, prevention and treatment programs for problem gamblers. In 2009, the slot machine fees brought in about $1.5 million. But with a budget deficit of $1.5 billion — almost half of the state’s total operating budget from the previous fiscal year — Gov. Brian Sandoval, a Republican, has proposed redirecting half of that revenue to the general fund. The move would make permanent a stopgap measure that the Legislature took last year. Other lawmakers want to cut spending on problem gambling treatment entirely. “Treatment for problem gamblers is a needed service, but there are private treatment options,” said State Sen. Ben Kieckhefer, a Reno Republican.
Winds topple National Christmas Tree in D.C. Strong winds felled the National Christmas Tree, a 42-foot Colorado blue spruce that was planted on the Ellipse, near the White House, in 1978. It was 15 years old and 30 feet tall when it was planted. Now it’s 47 years old and stood about 42 feet. National Park Service spokesman Bill Line told The Washington Post that a successor has already been picked, and it will be planted in coming weeks. There were no injuries or other damage. — From wire reports

Fat monkeys Continued from A1 The corpulent primates serve as useful models, experts say, because they resemble humans much more than laboratory rats do, not only physiologically but in some of their feeding habits. They tend to eat when bored, even when they are not really hungry. And unlike human subjects who are notorious for fudging their daily calorie or carbohydrate counts, a caged monkey’s food intake is much easier for researchers to count and control. “Nonhuman primates don’t lie to you,” said Grove, who is a neuroscientist. “We know exactly how much they are eating.” To allow monitoring of their food intake, some of the obese monkeys are kept in individual cages for months or years, which also limits their exercise. That is in contrast to most of the monkeys here who live in group indoor/outdoor cages with swings and things to climb on. While this research is not entirely new and has been the target of some animal rights’ group complaints, demand for the overweight primates is growing as part of the battle against the nation’s obesity epidemic, according to Grove and other researchers working with such monkeys in Florida, Texas and North Carolina, and also overseas. Some tests have already produced tangible results. Rhythm Pharmaceuticals, a startup company in Boston, tested its experimental diet drug on some of the Oregon monkeys. After eight weeks, the animals reduced their food intake 40 percent and lost 13 percent of their weight, without apparent heart problems. “We could get a much better readout on chronic safety and efficacy early,” said Bart Henderson, the president of Rhythm, which now plans to move into human testing. In another study, a group of academic researchers is using the monkeys to compare gastric bypass surgery with weight loss from forced dieting. One goal is to try to figure out the hormonal mechanisms by which the surgery can quickly resolve diabetes, so that drugs might one day be developed to have the same effect. To that end, the study will do what cannot be done with people — kill some of the monkeys to examine their brains and pancreases. The primate center here, which is part of Oregon Health & Science University, has more than 4,000 monkeys, mostly rhesus macaques. About 150 of them are the rotund rhesuses. Some receive daily insulin shots to treat diabetes, and some have clogged arteries. One monkey died of a heart attack a few years ago at a fairly young age. Shiva, a young adult, gained about 15 pounds in six months and weighs about 45 pounds, twice the normal weight for his age. Like other monkeys with a weight problem, he carries much of the excess in his belly, not his arms and legs. The monkey’s daily diet consists of dried chow pellets, with about one-third of the calories coming from fat, similar to a typical American diet, Grove said, though the diet also contains adequate protein and nutrients. They can eat as many pellets as they want. They also snack daily on a 300-calorie chunk of peanut butter, and are sometimes treated to popcorn or peanuts. Gummy
11 Westerners drown on tour boat in Vietnam The Associated Press HANOI, Vietnam — Vietnamese police said today that human error was to blame for the sinking of a tour boat in Ha Long Bay that killed 12 sleeping passengers. The vessel’s captain and a crew member have been arrested. A valve that allows water to come into the boat to cool the engine was left open while the vessel was anchored for the night, authorities said. The engine was turned off, preventing a pump from pushing the water out. The tour boat was inundated with gushing water when it went down about 5 a.m. Thursday, trapping passengers in their overnight cabins. All of the Vietnamese crew survived, along with nine foreign tourists. But 11 vacationers from Western countries, including the U.S., drowned along with their Vietnamese tour guide. It was Vietnam’s deadliest tour boat accident since the country opened up to foreign visitors 25 years ago. About 2.5 million people, half of them foreigners, cruise Ha Long Bay each year.

At 45 pounds, Shiva is twice the normal weight of an adult male rhesus macaque, and carries much of it in his belly. Shiva lives in a cage, at right, at the Oregon National Primate Research Center, part of Oregon Health & Science University, where researchers have fattened up the primates to help scientists study obesity and diabetes. bears were abandoned because they stuck to the monkeys’ teeth. They also drink a fruit-flavored punch with the fructose equivalent of about a can of soda a day. In all, they might consume about twice as many calories as a normal-weight monkey. Grove and researchers at some other centers say the high-fructose corn syrup appears to accelerate the development of obesity and diabetes. “It wasn’t until we added those carbs that we got all those other changes, including those changes in body fat,” said Anthony Comuzzie, who helped create an obese baboon colony at the Southwest National Primate Research Center in San Antonio. Still, about 40 percent do not put on a lot of weight. Barbara Hansen of the University of South Florida said calories, but not high fat, were important. “To suggest that humans and monkeys get fat because of a high-fat diet is not a good suggestion,” she said. Hansen, who has been doing
research on obese monkeys for four decades, prefers animals that become naturally obese with age, just as many humans do. Fat Albert, one of her monkeys who she said was at one time the world’s heaviest rhesus, at 70 pounds, ate “nothing but an American Heart Association-recommended diet,” she said.
Why not use rodents? Mice and rats remain the main animals for medical research, but the effects on rodents often do not mirror those in people. Rinat Neuroscience had an experimental drug that sharply reduced appetite in rodents. But
obese baboons in San Antonio doubled or tripled their food intake when they got the drug. The surprising result prompted Pfizer, which acquired Rinat, to explore whether the drug instead could promote weight gain, perhaps for cancer patients or others suffering from wasting. Some companies see no need to use primates to study obesity and diabetes, saying it is almost as easy to do human studies. Monkey studies can cost up to several million dollars. The animals are so precious that only a small number can be used. And there are ethical reviews before a study can begin. “Doing primate studies is about
THE BULLETIN • Sunday, February 20, 2011 A7 as difficult as doing human studies from an ethical standpoint,” said Dr. Lee Kaplan, director of the weight center at Massachusetts General Hospital, who is one of the researchers in the bariatric surgery study here. Animal rights activists say primate studies subject animals to needless suffering, like the stress of being caged. Two activists got jobs here in the last decade and presented evidence of what they said were mistreated and unhealthy monkeys. Jim Newman, a spokesman for the primate center, said the accusations were unfounded and that after both instances, inspectors from the Department of Agriculture found no violations of rules. Activists also question whether the studies are needed. For example, they point to studies in the last two years by Grove and colleagues showing that when pregnant monkeys ate the high-fat diet, their offspring had metabolic problems. The babies were also more prone to anxiety when confronted with threatening objects, like a Mr. Potato Head with huge eyes. “Terrorizing Monkeys with Mr. Potato Head is Research?” Alisa Mullins of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals wrote in November. She noted that in the study, fetuses were taken from wombs and killed so their brains could be dissected. She also questioned the need to study fat monkeys: “Gee, couldn’t he have hung out at the local McDonald’s and learned the same thing?” Grove said he understood the protesters’ view: “I applaud them
for that pressure because it makes us do our job better.” But he said the study found the diet induced chemical changes in the brains of fetuses that might be responsible for the problems in the offspring. The findings might also apply to humans but could not be studied in people. The studies also found something else that could be important for people — that eating a healthy diet during pregnancy reduced troubles in the offspring. That suggests, he said, that the diet of a pregnant woman matters more than whether she is obese. He also defended keeping the animals in some studies in individual cages. Not all labs do. At Wake Forest University, the monkeys are housed in pairs and separated only at meal times so that researchers can monitor what each monkey eats. “These are social animals,” said Janice Wagner, a professor of pathology there. “We think they are happier that way.” But Grove said he needed the animals separated at all times so they could snack between meals, since that is an important reason people gain weight. And allowing them outside, even one at a time, would mean they would exercise more. “Our research model is a sedentary lifestyle with calorically dense diets,” he said. As pharmaceutical companies move some research to less expensive countries, the obese monkeys are following. “This is a booming industry in China,” said Grove. “They have colonies of thousands of them.”

What does new budget mean? By Nick Budnick The Bulletin
SALEM — Earlier this month, Gov. John Kitzhaber released a budget that seemed to eliminate the state’s projected $3.5 billion shortfall in one fell swoop — by essentially not mentioning it. He disavowed the traditional approach to budgeting, which essentially took cost inflation for granted, instead divvying up the available funds. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have praised Kitzhaber for changing the usual budget discussion. Instead of being about where
Over the past few weeks, it’s seemed like instead of narrowing down options for new middle school boundaries, the possibilities have increased. The Bend-La Pine Schools’ boundary advisory committee, which was formed in December to solve overcrowding at Cascade Middle School, is now examining six possible scenarios for shifting students to help even out middle school enrollment.

does the state cut and by how much, people in Salem are talking more about how diverse interests can come together to make the system work better. But in calling for major reforms to avoid drastic cuts, Kitzhaber’s more than 450page proposed budget creates a slew of unanswered questions. Can the state preserve enough school days to prevent a recurrence of 2003, when a Doonesbury cartoon placed an embarrassing national spotlight on the state’s decision to drastically cut school days?

Another stronger-than-expected storm swept through Central Oregon Saturday, bringing with it icy roads and several inches of light, drifting snow. The storm caused cars to slip and slide. A three-vehicle crash closed Highway 97 at Lava Butte for a few hours, and there was a seven-mile backup shortly after both lanes reopened later in the day. As of Saturday night, the National Weather Service was forecasting continued snow through this morning, with 7 to 12 inches expected to fall at higher elevations around Bend.
Forecaster Mary Johnson with the weather service office in Pendleton said Saturday’s storm was a separate weather system from the one that hit earlier in the week, dropping nearly a foot of heavy, wet snow in places and knocking out power to thousands of area residents. However, like the prior storm, its impact was felt across a relatively limited area. “It’s not been a widespread snow across Eastern Oregon, it’s just been along the east slope and into the Bend area,” she said. “Eastern Oregon has been getting the precipitation, but it’s been rain, not snow.” See Snow / B8

On Saturday afternoon, around 200 locals packed the original Oregon Trunk Depot building for lunch and a slightly fictionalized skit illustrating local residents’ grievances with James Hill, president of the Great Northern Railroad. Jerry Ramsey, president of the Jefferson County Historical Society, said modern-day Madras and Jefferson County wouldn’t be the same if not for the railroad. “I don’t think it’s possible to exaggerate the importance of the event we’re celebrating today, not only for Madras but for further down south,” he said. The arrival of the railroad in Madras marked a turning point in the effort to link Central Oregon to the outside world by rail, Ramsey said, the point at which it became clear the undertaking would succeed.

primarily in downtown Bend and the area around Awbrey Butte who attend Miller or High Lakes elementaries or the magnet schools. While the process seems to have taken awhile, Rexford said it’s nowhere as lengthy as others the district has conducted. In 2007, the district’s boundary advisory committee worked from
October to February. When the district made boundary changes to prepare for the opening of Summit High School in 2001, Rexford said it lasted months and culminated in large forums held at area gyms and libraries with more than 100 parents at each meeting. Just changing middle school boundaries is its own challenge
because with four middle schools and three high schools, there’s never going to be a clear feeder process. Further, the committee is trying to prevent breaking up elementary schools or isolating small groups of students. “I trust the process,� Rexford said. “I know it’s messy for a while, but I think eventually we
will have strong consensus for one of the options.� The committee will meet Wednesday, at which time it hopes to narrow options and set dates for public forums. Sheila G. Miller can be reached at 541-617-7831 or at smiller@bendbulletin.com.

TODAY’S HIGHLIGHT IN HISTORY On Feb. 20, 1962, astronaut John Glenn became the first American to orbit the Earth as he flew aboard the Mercury spacecraft Friendship 7. ON THIS DATE In 1790, Holy Roman Emperor Joseph II died. In 1792, President George Washington signed an act creating the U.S. Post Office. In 1809, the Supreme Court ruled that no state legislature could annul the judgments or determine the jurisdictions of federal courts. In 1811, Austria declared state bankruptcy. In 1839, Congress prohibited dueling in the District of Columbia. In 1938, Anthony Eden resigned as British foreign secretary following Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain’s decision to negotiate with Italian dictator Benito Mussolini. In 1944, during World War II, U.S. bombers began raiding German aircraft manufacturing centers in a series of attacks that became known as “Big Week.� In 1950, the U.S. Supreme Court, in United States v. Rabinowitz, ruled 5-3 that authorities making a lawful arrest did not need a warrant to search and seize evidence in an area that was in the “immediate and complete control� of the suspect. In 1971, the National Emergency Warning Center in Colorado erroneously ordered U.S. radio and TV stations off the air; some stations heeded the alert,
Swearingen Continued from B1 House Bill 3347, sponsored by Whisnant, would essentially exempt the new development, called Pine Forest, from the normal county-driven land use process as well as from state destination resort regulations. In return, the Sunriver partnership would pay $3 million over the coming decade or more to help with south Deschutes County’s septic issues. Critics say the result would be a rural subdivision with less of a benefit for tourism than a normal destination resort would have. Supporters say such criticisms are overblown. Swearingen says the bill is a win-win, as much of the financial benefit derived by the developer from land use law exemptions would be funneled into needed funding to address federal scientists’ concerns over nitrate contamination of local groundwater supplies. The bill initially would have created a sanitary authority to provide residents with a local agency to attack the nitrate problem, including potentially — though not necessarily — installing a sewer system. However, Whisnant is removing

Teacher arrested in child porn case The Associated Press PORTLAND — Police say a former Beaverton School District teacher wanted on child pornography charges has been arrested after his flight from Amsterdam landed in Portland. The suspect, 35-year-old Logan Storm, was indicted in August after images of child pornography were discovered on his computer. He was booked Saturday in the county jail on 30 charges of encouraging child sexual abuse. The Oregonian newspaper reported that court papers show the police investigation started last summer when Storm’s girlfriend discovered pornographic images on his laptop computer showing girls 8 to 11 years old having sex with men. Investigators believe that Storm fled the United States shortly after the images were
discovered and may have been in Canada and Ireland. He had taught mathematics in a middle school since 2005.

Mark Ylen / Albany Democrat-Herald
Grace and Heather Walburn, of Molalla, at the Memorial Stadium track in Albany, where they will return this June for the Relay for Life cancer awareness walk.
Oregon mother and daughter are united in cancer fight By Amanda Robbins Albany Democrat-Herald
ALBANY — In January 2006, Grace Walburn, then 5, was told that her blood was sick. She was too young to understand what leukemia was but knew that her family was worried about her. “I was sad and scared,” she said. “I got a lot of hugs.” Grace underwent chemotherapy and entered remission a year and a half after her diagnosis. But only 18 months later, in early 2009, cancer returned to the family: Grace’s mom, Heather Walburn — a manager at a Perfect Look salon in Salem — was diagnosed with breast cancer. After chemotherapy, a lumpectomy and breast reduction surgery, she too entered remission. Grace and Heather first took part in the Relay for Life cancer awareness walk in Albany in 2007. And even though they moved to Molalla in November 2009, they’ll be back again for this year’s event, set for June 17-18 at the West Albany High School track. Grace does karaoke, and both walk with their team, “The Party Crashers.” And mother and daughter both stress the importance of the relay. “Even if you can’t donate, come out and watch,” Heather said. “It’s a great event.” Kim Dammon, chair of the Relay for Life in Albany, said the event is the signature fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. “One of the reasons this relay is so important is so that people can come together for a common passion,” she said. The relay allows survivors, cancer patients and caregivers to realize they are not alone, she said. Through both their battles, Grace and Heather had support from each other, their family — including Heather’s son, James, 20, and her fiance, Jeff Jones — and the community. After Grace was diagnosed with leukemia, her mom was spending roughly $500 a month on medications and copays. “We went without normal food and toilet paper because I was afraid that I wasn’t going to be able to pay for her medical needs,” Heather said. KRKT heard about Grace’s condition and told Heather about the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital in Memphis, which provides financial assistance for families with children battling leukemia. Heather went online and filled out the application. Two days later, Grace was covered by St. Jude. KRKT also did a fundraiser for Grace, who has since become a spokesperson for similar fundraisers. “People we didn’t even know were donating to Gracie’s cause,” Heather said. The role of caretaker changed hands when Grace found out her mom had breast cancer. “I felt sad because I had already gone through it, and I didn’t want my mom to go through what I did,” Grace said. She brought her mother medication and water, and she also tended to what other needs she could. “Gracie would also rat me out to my parents,” Heather said. When Grace saw that her mom was struggling, she would call her grandparents. “I wanted my parents to think everything was OK, but thanks to Grace, my parents were there to support me, too,” Heather said. “We are truly blessed,” she added. “So many people stepped up to help us.”
FIRST RAILS ON HILL LINE REACH MADRAS THIS MORNING This morning at nine o’clock the first train pulled in over the newly laid rails to Madras. All day a big celebration has been in progress. The Bend Band went down in three autos, and many local residents are there to see Central Oregon’s first railroad train. Within four months, Bend, the terminus, will celebrate the arrival of the first train at this place. LAND BEING SOLD Roscoe Howard, manager of the Central Oregon Irrigation Co., who returned from Portland last Tuesday, speaks most enthusiastically concerning local irrigation prospects. “People in here,” said Mr. Howard, “scarcely realize what a big immigration this summer will bring.” But down in Portland, where they are in touch with the east and middle west, they do; and the railroads are preparing to handle a very heavy Central Oregon passenger traffic. The majority of these people will be looking for land, and hundreds will buy our irrigated tracts. All this will mean a lot of money spent here, and a lot of the best kind of substantial development. Mr. Howard said his company has some 24,000 acres ready to be sold. The work of leading water to this acreage is about 90 percent or more completed. During the last 60 days, the company has sold in the neighborhood of 2,000 acres. Preliminary work on the North Canal is progressing. According to Mr. Howard, diamond drill outfits soon will be brought in to do prospecting work on the dam site, for the purpose of making complete surveys. These drills are used to ascertain the condition of the rock upon which the dam foundations will rest. “We hope to get the North Canal finished to a junction with the stave flume this summer,” continued Mr. Howard. “I suppose this would entail the expenditure of perhaps $400,000.” The proposed North Canal leaves the Deschutes about a mile north of Bend. It will water 56,000 acres. Much improvement and construction work on canals and laterals will be undertaken as soon as the frost gets out of the ground. Mr. Howard’s family is in San Diego County, California. They will come to Bend early in the spring.
75 YEARS AGO For the week ending Feb. 19, 1936 ANTELOPES FIRES Once again Antelope, pioneer town which in the early years of the century was on the route used by scores of people on the way to the then railroadless town of Bend, has been visited by a costly fire. The Bolton store, known to many of the old-timers who came into Central Oregon in the days of horse-drawn stages and long-line skinners, a few nights ago was completely destroyed by fire. Probably no town in Oregon has suffered so greatly from fires during the past half century than Antelope. As a result of those fires, especially the ones of the past decade or so, the little town, once the center of a rangeland empire, is now merely a shell of itself, without even a general store. Incorporated just 40 years ago, following many years as a mayorless town, Antelope was swept by a conflagration on July 11, 1898, at 2 a.m. In less than an hour and a half after the fire was spotted, flames had gutted the entire business section of the town, then one of Central Oregon’s outposts. “Only an apparently special act of providence at an opportune moment, the changing of the wind, combined with the heroic efforts of the people, saved the town from destruction,” stated an eyewitness. That fire, old-timers will recall, started in the Condon bowling alley and within
Y E S T E R D AY a few minutes the flames had spread to the Antelope hotel, forcing patrons to flee in their night clothing. Livery stables, a blacksmith shop, the post office, a drug store, the McBeth saloon and the first Bolton store were razed as the conflagration swept up the south side of the street. On the north side of the street, all the buildings between Kirchheiner’s residence and Riley’s little house were destroyed. Even the Masonic lodge was lost in that costly night fire. However, that little town, fourth in size among the municipalities of Wasco County at the turn of the century, quickly recovered from the conflagration. Stated a contemporary historian: “The new store buildings that were rapidly rebuilt were much better structures than had been the old ones. And the new Antelope bid fair to become one of the handsomest towns in the interior, and, for its size, one of the best. Despite pessimistic prophesies, Antelope continued to flourish even after the Columbia Southern reached Shaniko. But in recent years, Antelope was left on backcountry roads when The Dalles-California highway was routed down Cow Canyon. Even freight traffic through the early-day town stopped when the Deschutes railroads reached Bend. One by one, business buildings have been eaten away by flames. But old-timers of the once prosperous and well-populated community are certain that happy days are ahead for Antelope, when increased rainfall revives parched ranges, when hills give up their mineral wealth and when prosperity returns to the stock industry. When those happy days come, the old-timers predict, new and modern buildings will be erected in the town that was once a gateway to the Bend country.
50 YEARS AGO For the week ending Feb. 19, 1961 PIONEER WOMAN AUTOIST NOTES CHANGES Funny how some names so quickly drop from history. Sure, Lindbergh’s feat in flying eastward alone across the Atlantic will be noted in history 1,000 years from now. But who was the first woman to drive an automobile across the United States? She was Mrs. John R. Ramsey. She made the pioneer crossing 51 years ago. She is 72 now, a resident of Covina, Calif. And she still drives an automobile. Since 1909, she has driven across the United States 26 times, from ocean to ocean. Unlike Lindy in his flight over the Atlantic, Mrs. Ramsey did not cross the continent alone. She had three women companions. They became experts in changing tires, braving storms and guessing whether gas would be available at the next stop. Sources of gasoline were few. They were far between. In Utah, Mrs. Ramsey paid 52.5 cents a gallon for gasoline that had to be carried 90 miles from the nearest railroad by horse-drawn wagon. Mrs. Ramsey recalls her biggest thrill on the 1909 crossing of the continent came in Wyoming.
There, a group of Indians on horseback and carrying drawn bows traveled at a furious pace and kept parallel with the car. The women motorists were greatly relieved when they discovered that the Wyoming Indians were hunting jackrabbits, not scalps. How things have changed: Now service stations are more abundant in the west than rabbits. CONSTRUCTION OF MULTIMILLION-DOLLAR ROUND BUTTE DAM TO COME AT GOOD TIME A multimillion-dollar dam is to be constructed in the deep gorge of the Deschutes just west of the old plateau volcano known as Round Butte. This was assured over the weekend when Portland General Electric cleared the final hurdle in its application to build the $70.9 structure. Clearance came when the Oregon Hydroelectric Commission voted 2-to-1 to grant a license to PGE. Chairman James W. Morrell cast the negative vote. He said, “Round Butte is not in the public interest.” He said that Oregon is not facing a serious power shortage. He charged that fish-passage problems have not been solved. He charged that facilities PGE proposed to construct in the Cove recreation area would not adequately replace those to be lost through flooding by Lake Chinook. There are many Oregonians who sided with Chairman Morrell and Portland sportsmen when the Pelton Dam, a short distance downstream, was constructed several years ago. In Central Oregon and in other parts of the state, there are many people who will grieve to see water from Chinook Lake creeping over the historic Cove area, in the shadows of the “Plains of Abraham,” as the Cove Island was known to pioneers. But there is plenty of evidence that PGE, through a huge outlay of money, will make every effort to provide proper passage for fish and to replace, through construction of new park areas, bridges and roads, facilities to be lost when the Cove area is flooded.
is more than the porous outer bark of the Cork Oak. It’s the acronym for a running club. CORK, aka Central Oregon Running Klub, boasts approximately 130 members to date. Many of them get together for meetings, training runs, potlucks and races. On its exterior, CORK is a laidback, loosely organized group. Its board of directors includes any member who shows up for meetings. Its president, Clem LaCava, isn’t really a president. He’s more a speaker of the house; someone there for show, and to keep meetings to business at hand. “We’re so informal,” LaCava said, “that it’s hard to say how organized we are.” LaCava knows CORK — founded by Alan Tracy, Tom Howes, Jerry Horn and Phil Randall, plus a few others — is very formal and organized when it’s time to host an event. “We’re laid-back, but at the same time it’s very organized,” he said. “We get things done, and when we do something, we do it right. I will say our races are pretty well done.” Some of CORK’s sanctioned races are fundraisers, such as last Saturday’s event at Buckingham School, or small fun runs. Its two biggest events are the annual CORK-COCC Couples Classic and The Bulletin
Labor Day Run. Profits from the Labor Day Run and membership fees help pay for the newsletter and keep CORK in the black. Before you walk away thinking CORK’s only for marathoners and running gurus who talk carbo-loading and fat percentages all day, think again. Because if you’re one who plods along for two or three miles, the club has something for you, said LaCava. And if you’re a racer, logging long miles and attending races nearly every week, you’ll find company with some of the area’s better runners. “For the members that have become active, maybe 30 or 40 percent of our runners don’t run races, but they want to support the club,” LaCava said. “They may not care to run a race, but they really get a lot of fun out of just running.” Membership entitles each person to a monthly newsletter, a discount at club-sponsored events and discounts on running items at participating establishments. But, said LaCava, meeting friends tops the list. “We’ve become good friends, and I think that’s really the key to it,” he said.

Budget Continued from B1 Can health care be re-scrambled to preserve services to the 575,000 low-income people in the Oregon Health Plan — preventing them from potentially losing prescription drug coverage entirely? And can prison costs be cut without hurting public safety? While Kitzhaber is spearheading reforms for social services and health care, he is also relying on lawmakers, lobbyists, school boards and prison administrators to help make deep cuts in the education and prisons budgets work. Budgets are not contracts; rather, they’re planning documents that try to match up spending with estimated revenue. Still, in Kitzhaber’s budget, some parts are squishier than others. Sen. Jackie Winters, R-Salem, puts it simply: “The tricky parts with the budget are where you have major policy issues that are used to balance the budget.” If the policy changes don’t become law, “you do not have a balanced budget.” Rep. Peter Buckley, D-Ashland, was more tactful about Kitzhaber’s approach. “He’s given us a good framework to work in, but there’s lots of work to do to fill out that frame,” said Buckley, who cochairs the budget-writing Joint Ways and Means Committee. The pot of money that lawmakers get to divvy up is formed by lottery revenue and the general fund, which in turn comes from corporate and personal income taxes. That combined general fund and lottery available has gone up $1.2 billion from the last two-year budget, or 8 percent. However, much of that money will be needed to offset a drop of nearly $7 billion in federal and other funds, adding up to an overall budget decrease of $5.6 billion dollars. What that means is a lot of holes. And the one that has generated the most concern in Salem is the K-12 schools budget, for which Kitzhaber has allotted $5.57 billion from the state’s general fund and lottery revenues. That tally will jump to $5.65 billion if voters approve a measure Kitzhaber plans to shift responsibility for funding state police from the state’s general fund to the highway fund, which is supported by gas taxes and vehicle registration fees. But even that small improvement to schools’ fortunes could be a reach; already, some lawmakers and lobbyists have turned against the idea. Either way, the proposed schools budget means a cut from the $5.75 billion that the system gets in the current biennium. Meanwhile, budget analysts say that to preserve current services, the K-12 system actually needs $6.7 billion to account for inflation and other cost factors. And all those numbers fall well short of the $8.8 billion that the state’s Quality Education Commission considers necessary for a healthy school system. To deal with the situation, Kitzhaber has front-loaded the first year of the budget so that lawmakers, school boards and others have time to make reforms and look for cuts. He proposes setting up a larger education board that can help integrate public schools with higher education and early childhood services to save money. He’s also proposed a number of small tweaks that encourage school districts to consolidate, offer money-saving online learning options, and find cheaper ways to provide the specialized services now performed by education service districts. Chuck Bennett, a lobbyist for the Oregon School Boards Association, says his group wholeheartedly supports Kitzhaber and endorses his effort to find cheaper ways to provide services. But as for the specific reforms contained in the budget, he’s not optimistic that any of them will save much money in the current budget. “These are barely Band-Aids on what has been an absolute disinvestment in education in Oregon,” he said. “We’re looking at really substantial cuts in K-12 education in the hundreds of millions, and none of these ideas can come even vaguely close to helping with that.” OSBA is pursuing a number of bills, such as one that would let school districts buy their own health insurance rather than use the state-proscribed Oregon Educator Benefits Board. “There’s a lot more to talk about here, and I know the governor is committed to the conversation,” he added. Then there is the area of social services and health care reform. There, Kitzhaber is continuing with reforms adopted last session of tasking a stand-alone Oregon Health Authority to combine the state’s health-related services, such as the Oregon Health Plan,
to increase the state’s bargaining power when negotiating with pharmaceutical and other companies. Meanwhile, the Department of Human Services distributes funds to low-income, senior and disabled people. Kitzhaber is proposing combining early childhood services so that fewer agencies provide funds. Among the efficiencies that would create are eliminating the state Commission on Children and Families, which could save several million in administrative costs. The main challenge, however, lies with the health authority. There, Kitzhaber has proposed lowering the rates that providers are reimbursed for providing care. He’s also cutting the number of services covered by the Oregon Health Plan. But above all, Kitzhaber has convened a 47-member team of experts and stakeholders to look at ways to re-scramble the statefunded health bureaucracy. His goal is to find $700 million to $800 million in savings by merging long-term care, acute care and the state’s mental health system so that multiple services for the needy can be provided in the same locations, making the system more user-friendly and efficient. To get there, he needs approvals from the federal government and a lot of luck. Is it possible? “There’s one thing I do know, that if we don’t try and get any of (the potential savings), we’ll get none of it,” said Dr. Bruce Goldberg, who heads OHA. “I think that everybody knows that there’s a lot to be saved within health care. It is not well coordinated, there’s a lot of care that has little value, there’s duplication, there’s unnecessary care. There’s been studies about it for years.” John Mullin, a social services advocate in Salem, is less sanguine that major changes can be made quickly enough to preserve essential services. Because no other state has attempted this, “We don’t have any track record to compare to,” he said. As a result, social services and health advocates think that later in the session, lawmakers will have no choice but to look for tax increases on cigarettes, health care providers or something else, Mullin said. In the public safety arena, besides shifting state troopers off the general fund, Kitzhaber proposes to cut about 425 beds from the Oregon Youth Authority, which currently has 900 beds for juvenile offenders. Buckley said that as with K-12 schools, lawmakers hope to restore some of the proposed cuts to OYA, citing “broad acknowledgement that that’s a cut too deep to have a functional system for young offenders.” He says he had little choice due to various sentencing laws approved by voters that affect the state’s adult prisoners. That said, he has proposed again postponing implementation of Measure 57, a 2008 law approved by voters to beef up sentences on repeat drug, identity and property crime offenders. The Department of Corrections budget is slated for $1.4 billion in general fund spending by Kitzhaber, who has said he intends to neither build new prisons nor open any new beds in the current cycle. Budget analysts say the system needs more like $1.58 billion to cope with inflation and projected prisoner population growth. Some lawmakers have proposed sentencing reforms such as increasing the amount of time off a sentence that an inmate can earn through good behavior. But former lawmaker Kevin Mannix, who is part of an alliance of crime victims’ advocates, prosecutors and law enforcement, said that no such reforms will earn the support of his coalition unless it is part of a larger negotiated package. So far, he said, Democrats haven’t seemed interested. “I have been emphasizing a willingness to sit down and discuss corrections savings, and there are some things that can be done,” he said. But he said his group will oppose any such money-saving measures unless they get something in return. For instance, his group has been looking at how to cut prison costs through privatization. Sen. Chris Telfer, R-Bend, is part of a small group of Republican senators looking at the budget. She said the group hasn’t formulated a specific alternative budget yet. She’s nervous about the schools budget but says she needs more information about what reserves districts might have to cushion the blow. As far as the prison budget, she’d rather the state look at privatizing and other cost savings than release dangerous criminals. She’s most optimistic about the effort to reform health care, saying, “I think we have the brainpower to do it.” State health bureaucrats such as Goldberg have already done “a wonderful job of
finding cost savings and efficiencies,” she said. “They need to keep doing that.” Yet another unresolved question is contracts with the state’s employee unions. Kitzhaber soon will submit his opening offer to kick off collective bargaining on salary and benefits for state workers. When he announced his proposed budget earlier this month, he refused to discuss his assumptions or expectations for how he would handle the issue. But early indications were that he would take a hard line; he told The Oregonian newspaper’s editorial board that he hoped to hold inflation in overall employee compensation to 3 percent per year. That would amount to cuts given the increase in costs in specific areas such as health care and retirement. More details are expected to be released this week.

Christian Lambertsen created early scuba device By T. Rees Shapiro The Washington Post
Christian Lambertsen, who as a medical student in 1939 invented a revolutionary underwater breathing system used by the military in World War II and who later helped coin the popular acronym to describe his device and others like it — scuba — died of renal failure Feb. 11 at his home in Newtown Square, Pa. He was 93. Dr. Lambertsen, who had a second home on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, was a longtime professor at his alma mater, the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine. He was an expert on respiratory physiology and diving-related ailments. His 1939 invention, the Lambertsen Amphibious Respirator Unit, or LARU, is considered a forerunner of the scuba technology used today. In 1952, Lambertsen and a colleague wrote a paper for the National Academy of Sciences describing his “Self Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus,” which they shortened to scuba. Before World War II, military divers wore clunky metal helmets that pumped breathable air through hoses tethered to boats on the water’s surface. Lambertsen’s LARU let divers swim freely and stealthily. It used pure oxygen and was a closed system. Equipped with a carbon dioxide filter, it enabled the diver to re-breathe the air he exhaled
while underwater, which made the system bubbleless. After the Navy rejected his device at first, Lambertsen demonstrated the LARU in the swimming pool of the Shoreham Hotel in Washington, D.C., in 1942 to the Office of Strategic Services, the World War II predecessor of the CIA. Not only was the OSS impressed with the invention, the nascent spy agency saw great potential in the young medical student, who was also an experienced diver. After he graduated from medical school in 1943, Lambertsen joined the Army Medical Corps and was recruited to the OSS. He helped train members of a newly formed OSS maritime unit in the use of his underwater breathing system in the pool at the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis. One of the men Lambertsen trained was able to swim more than a mile underwater in the Potomac River and remain submerged for 48 minutes. Lambertsen’s device was further tested in Operation Cincinnati, in which OSS swimmers clandestinely infiltrated the heavy defenses of the U.S. Navy harbor at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and blew up an old barge. The mission was a resounding success, a top-secret government report later concluded, because “Navy sound detection gear did not reveal the presence of underwater swimmers.”

Eddie passed on from this life the morning of February 15, 2011, surrounded and supported by his loving family. He was 83. A memorial service will be held at the Old Stone Church in Bend on Monday, February 21, at 11 am. A reception to follow will be held at his Eddie Milne son’s house. His cremated remains will be taken to his birthplace in Trinidad and scattered in a private ceremony. Edward Manning “Eddie” Milne was born to Edward and Audrey (Goddard) Milne, Sr. in San Fernando, Trinidad, on September 2, 1927. His marriage to Karen of 38 years was blessed with six beautiful children; Fe, Laura, Marisa, Kirsten, Teddy and Sarah. Throughout their marriage, Eddie and Karen were inseparable; the definition of true soul mates. Eddie developed early signs of Alzheimer’s in 2006, and his health rapidly declined. He eventually died of complications from the disease, and although Alzheimer’s greatly affected his short-term memory towards the end of his life, he managed to maintain his amazing sense of humor, his words of wisdom and his love for everyone and everything. He is survived by his wife, Karen Milne, his six children named above, as well as 11 grandchildren and one great-grandchild. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to the Alzheimer’s Association or your local Humane Society. Baird Funeral Home of Bend is in charge of arrangements 541-382-0903.

Bill Monroe, ‘Meet the Press’ host for 9 years By Emma Brown The Washington Post
Bill Monroe, a journalist best known for his nineyear tenure as moderator of the public-affairs talk show “Meet the Press” during the 1970s and ’80s, died Thursday at ManorCare nursing home in Potomac, Md. He was 90 and had complications from hypertension. Starting on NBC-TV in 1947, “Meet the Press” is one of the longest-running programs in American broadcast history and a staple for many Sunday morning viewers. Monroe had long worked for NBC News in Washington and had appeared as a panelist on “Meet the Press” before being tapped in 1975 as its moderator. He succeeded Lawrence Spivak, the program’s co-creator, and was later followed by journalists including Marvin Kalb, Garrick Utley and Tim Russert, who led the show for 17 years until his death in 2008. In tone, Monroe’s “Meet the Press” was said to resemble a sedate news conference or congressional hearing — in stark contrast with the highvolume, argumentative talk shows that became increasingly commonplace in the 1980s and beyond. As moderator, Monroe led panelists in interviewing public figures from the worlds of economics, politics and international affairs. He was known as a “forceful but fair questioner,” according to Time magazine; Newsday television critic Verne Gay called him “highly respected but not highly feared.”
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.

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.

Congressman Wu reportedly urged to get psychiatric help The Associated Press PORTLAND — Senior staffers of U.S. Rep. David Wu were so alarmed over the Oregon Democrat’s erratic behavior just days before the November election that they demanded he enter a hospital for psychiatric treatment, a newspaper reported Friday evening. The Oregonian, citing interviews with a number of anonymous staff members, reported on its website that Wu was increasingly unpredictable on the campaign trial and in private last fall,
Railroad Continued from B1 After 100 miles of building south through steep and narrow canyons, Madras was the point where the landscape opened up, and the pace of work accelerated. A sizable portion of Madras’ population of a few hundred turned out on Feb. 15, 1911, to welcome the railroad, dubbed “The Gateway to Central Oregon” by the Great Northern company. But Madras was the center of attention for only a short time — crews pushed south, building the bridge over the Crooked River Gorge and laying up to three miles of track a day, arriving in Bend in October. When the tracks reached Bend, Hill came for a visit, giving a speech and driving a golden spike to mark the end of the railroad.
Snow Continued from B1 Both storms lost much of their punch before continuing east for the same reason, Johnson said. As moisture rides up over the crest of the Cascades, it is elevated to meet cooler air in the upper atmosphere, re-
and had several angry and loud outbursts and sometimes said “kooky” things to staff and potential voters and donors. A similar report was carried on the Willamette Week’s website Friday. The fact that Wu was in the middle of a difficult re-election campaign from his Portland-area district made his behavior particularly worrisome to staff who organized a meeting with the congressman at his campaign headquarters on Oct. 30, with a psychiatrist joining by speakerphone.
The Oregonian said its account was based on interviews with multiple sources who worked for Wu in his congressional office and his campaign. The people interviewed talked on the condition they not be named. The newspaper said the 55year-old Wu declined to be interviewed for its story. But his office provided a statement late Friday with the congressman saying he hasn’t always been at his best with staff and constituents, and that he has sought medical care.
Residents in the Madras area at the time were incensed Hill hadn’t bothered to stop in their area, Ramsey said, leading to the idea behind Saturday’s skit, “Mr. Hill visits Madras.” In the skit, a gang of angry locals — including one played by Jefferson County Commissioner Mike Ahern — conspire to stop the train carrying Hill — played by Jefferson County Sheriff Jim Adkins — to force the railroad magnate to give the speech they felt they deserved. Guest Leon Speroff, a Portland-area resident, became fascinated with the push to build a railroad to Central Oregon while fishing on the Deschutes River. Intrigued by the tunnels, grades and bridges that criss-cross the canyons of the Lower Deschutes, Speroff went looking for a book about the two railroad companies that battled to finish their railroad first, Hill’s Great Northern, and Edward Harriman’s Union Pacific. Finding nothing, he de-
cided to write the book himself. The author of “The Deschutes River Railroad War,” Speroff said the geography and geology of the Madras area made it a natural location to build a railroad, but things could have turned out differently had the tracks been laid a few miles farther out of town. Madras might well have done as Prineville did, he said, and built its own short stretch of railroad to tie in to the main line to avoid being left behind. Speroff said residents of Jefferson County seem to have a good appreciation for the role the railroad played in their community’s history. “I think they do, because everyone here has read my book,” he said. “I love coming here, because I always get such a warm reception,” said Speroff.
leasing the moisture as snow. As the weather system moves east past Central Oregon, it drops lower, making snow less likely. Forecasters are anticipating clearer weather today and Monday, with another storm system expected to move into the area late Monday. Central Oregon is a notori-

A winter’s adventure
John Gottberg Anderson / For The Bulletin
The Black Rock Oceanfront Resort overlooks crashing surf at the edge of Canada’s Pacific Rim National Park, on the west coast of Vancouver Island. The 133-room all-suite resort opened in 2009 to serve an upscale clientele from around the world.

Trekking across the ‘Heart of Africa’ Author’s transcontinental journey followed the footsteps of little-known British adventurer By David Jasper The Bulletin
Several years ago, Portland adventure writer Julian Smith was reading a book about the evolution of language when he came across a section about the lengths males go to to impress females. Specifically, he read three sentences about Ewart Grogan, a little-known British adventurer who, in 1898, became the first man to cross Africa from the southern tip at Cape Town, South Africa, north to Cairo. “I couldn’t believe when I came across his story that nobody ever seems to have heard of him,” the 38-year-old, whose work has appeared in Outside and Smithsonian, told The Bulletin by phone last week. By 2007, that short passage had inspired Smith to follow in Grogan’s footsteps across Africa. More than a century earlier, Ewart Grogan aimed to impress the elegant Gertrude Watt, a direct descendent of the inventor of the steam engine. Within days of their meeting, Grogan began talking marriage,
an idea Watt very much liked, Smith writes in “Crossing the Heart of Africa: An Odyssey of Love and Adventure.” It’s his account of ardent Grogan’s arduous trek, as well as his own, across Africa. The book will bring him to Central Oregon later this week for readings in Sunriver and Redmond (see “If you go”). At the time Grogan met Watt, he was a 20-something veteran of war in Rhodesia. Smart and able, he’d also been kicked out of Cambridge because of a prank, dropped out of art school and had killed a man in a bar fight. As marriage material, he was wanting: “… she was rich and he was not,” Smith writes. A jobless ne’er-do-well in the eyes of Watt’s stepfather, Grogan believed an epic journey would be just the thing to win Watt’s heart and win over his dismissive critic. But there was more to it than just love. See Africa / C7

Job loss reveals Is Fishburne’s ‘Thurgood’ really that riveting? who’s a true friend Tune in Thursday and judge for yourself
Dear Abby: After working 15 years for the same company, I was let go last August. I have called my former co-workers/ friends just to stay in touch. I don’t dwell on what I’m going through; I just want to enjoy some companionship. I have asked if they would like to meet for coffee before or after work. Only two ever seem to want to get together. It hurts, because we always shared birthdays, happy-hour outings, etc. My phone rarely rings, and I am now seeing a doctor for depression. Abby, please let your readers know that those of us who have lost their jobs are still trying to maintain relationships. It’s hard enough not having a job, but it’s harder realizing friends have turned their backs on you. — Forgotten in Katy, Texas Dear Forgotten: I know you’re going through a difficult time, and glad that you talked to your physician about your depression. Take from this experience some valuable insight: The people who get together with you are your true friends. Those who no longer want contact may fear that unemployment is a communicable disease and were only acquaintances. And now you know who’s who. Dear Abby: My husband is insecure. I do what I can to make him feel loved, but he has a habit that drives me crazy. Many times over the course of a day he’ll say, “I love you.” He does this especially if there is any hint of disagreement. At first I thought it was sweet, but after many years of marriage, I now understand that he just uses the words to get me to say it back to reassure him. Sometimes I do, but if I don’t, he becomes increasingly distressed. Should I just give him what he wants? It makes me feel like a puppet. — Too Much “Love”
DEAR ABBY
By Chuck Barney Dear Too Much: Instead of “giving him what he wants,” have you tried calmly calling him on it? Try this: “John, you know I love you. You hear it many times over the course of a day. But I find it, frankly, annoying that when we disagree about something, you tell me you love me and become increasingly distressed if I don’t feel like saying it back at that moment. So, let it go for now.” Your husband needs to hear you say it — almost as much as you need to get this off your chest. Dear Abby: My father-in-law has liver cancer. Whenever I use the term to explain his condition, I say, “Dad is dying of liver cancer,” which upsets my in-laws because they don’t like to hear the word “dying.” His cancer will ultimately take his life, so am I wrong, or are my in-laws being too sensitive? — Just Being Honest in Iowa Dear Just Being Honest: At this point you are wrong. Unless your father-in-law is at death’s door he is LIVING with cancer. When you describe his condition as “dying,” you create the impression that you are rushing him to the cemetery. He could live quite a while, so don’t jump the gun. And no, your in-laws are NOT being “too sensitive.”

Documentary shorts are worth seeking out B y Lisa Kennedy The Denver Post
On Nov. 9, 2005, Ashraf AlKhaled was happily marrying Nadia Alami in an Amman, Jordan, hotel when a suicide bomber killed 27 in their wedding party, including the fathers of the bride and groom. There were two other al-Qaida-coordinated attacks that day. In Jed Rothstein’s Oscar-nominated short documentary, “Killing in the Name,” the genial, determined Al-Khaled sets out to recruit fellow Muslims in a revolt against jihadists who advocate terrorism. Al-Khaled’s journey takes him to the home of the still-confounded father of a man responsible for one of the deadliest suicide bombings in Iraq. Then, in Indonesia, Al-Khaled speaks with the widows of men killed in the Bali bombings of 2002. After a hiatus, the “Oscar Nominated Shorts — Documentary” package is back. Kudos to Magnolia Pictures and Shorts International for offering the three-hour collection. And the films included — none of them particularly short — are worth seeking out. These shorts do better than fight the good fight. They might be characterized as meetings with remarkable people who — like AlKhaled — didn’t set out for glory. In Ruby Yang and writer Thomas Lennon’s environmental drama, “The Warriors of Qiugang,” Chinese villagers challenge a pesticide factory that has made their once-thriving rural community toxic. In Jennifer Redfearn’s “Sun Come Up,” the mood is as blue

as the South Pacific waters that surround and are beginning to encroach on the Cartaret Islands. This melancholic beauty puts strong, sorrowful faces on the problems of climate change as a group of islanders travels to nearby Bougainville to ask for land to begin anew. Their humility and hope are wrenching. The title of director Sara Nesson’s “Poster Girl” cuts a couple of ways. Robynn Murray was a sergeant in the army and appeared on the cover of Army magazine. The native New Yorker is now one of a reported 300,000 returning vets struggling with posttraumatic stress disorder after serving in the Mideast. A former cheerleader and Civil Air Patrol cadet, Murray — engaging, raging, artistic — is full of very human contradictions. None of this year’s short-documentary nominees promises easy viewing. But Karen Goodman and Kirk Simon’s “Strangers No More” comes the closest to joy. The film was shot at Tel Aviv’s Bialik-Rogozin school, which opens its door to refugees from as many as 48 countries.

In in sprawling Strathcona Provin- the morning, we drove 45 min-
utes north to Elk Falls Provincial Park on the Campbell River. The Canyon View Trail took us about a mile through a dense and lofty temperate rainforest to a cliffside overlook. This was indeed an impressive waterfall. Elk Falls plunged 80 feet into a mossy, steep-walled gorge, its misty spray enveloping the cedars, firs and sword ferns that rose on all sides. Cobb said the Campbell River is a popular fly-fishing destination for salmon, trout and steelhead, but this was a chasm that not even the hardiest angler might enter. Returning to the SUV, we drove a little over an hour to the Horne Lake caverns. We met Gibson in a yurt built beside a serene lake shore; the park may bustle with swimmers and kayakers in summer, but when we visited it was all but deserted. Once she had our waivers signed, she gave us a quick rundown on our upcoming caving experience and outfitted us with helmets. The entrances to the caves are in the Beaufort Mountains, between 500 and 1,000 feet above sea level. Formed over thousands of years as water and carbon dioxide slowly dissolved limestone, they contain such subterranean features as calcite draperies, cave pearls and other crystal formations, such as small stalactites (from the ceiling) and stalagmites (from the floor). Daddy longlegs spiders and tiny crickets are the only inhabitants. We had no intention of making our visit anything more than temporary. Gibson led us on explorations of two caves. The first, known as Main Cave, has a six-foot waterfall trickling into its depths. The second, Lower Cave, features the fore-mentioned fossils and glitter. Through a combination of climbing, crawling, scrambling, stretching, finding difficult footholds and, most of all, squeezing, our entire group made it into and out of both caverns. I’m still not sure how I maneuvered through some of the crevices without being greased. Fisher called the posturing “cave yoga” as he imitated a downward-facing dog while forcing himself through one narrow opening. We didn’t attempt the largest cave in the Horne Lake complex, the Riverbend Cave. It is onequarter-mile long — more than twice Main and Lower caves combined — and includes a seven-story rappel deep in its recesses. I don’t picture that cavern in my future.

C OV ER S T ORY From previous page They flank a segment of Canada’s Pacific Rim National Park, noted for its rugged seascapes and marine wildlife. The two towns have a flavor quite distinct from one another. Tofino, to the north, has a more rough-and-tumble mood. Its 2,000 residents live at the edge of Clayoquot Sound, a popular whale-watching destination. The indigenous Nuu-chah-nulth tribe maintains a strong presence here, attracting tourist dollars with art galleries and cultural tours. Ucluelet (pronounced youCLUE-let) has a more genteel ambience. Its 1,500 citizens live on an inlet whose name means “safe harbor” in the Nuu-chahnulth language. A 19th-century fur-sealing port, it sits at the mouth of Barkley Sound, whose Broken Island group shelters throngs of harbor seals, sea lions and even sea otters. Our biggest adventure on the West Coast, as it’s known to most locals, was a Sunday morning surfing lesson. For some, this may not have been such a thrill — but it was February, the ocean’s water temperature was 43 degrees, and I had not surfed in three decades. And when I did, it was in Hawaii. Sean Jensen, who learned to surf in Southern California and founded his Ukee Surf School four years ago, made the undertaking easy and fun. With a “Hang loose, brah!” attitude, he outfitted my friends and me in hardy wetsuits, complete with hoods, boots and gloves. Then he gave us a quick lesson in paddling, catching a wave and rising

I’d return to Vancouver Island in a heartbeat. to a standing position on our 9foot longboards. The day was as beautiful as the beach at Incinerator Rock was broad and sandy. Rolling three-foot waves broke like corduroy strips beneath a cloudless sky. Jensen was in his element, ripping through the surf like a man obsessed.

cruise, I took a five-mile hike on the Wild Pacific Trail. Following the harsh coastline north from Big Beach, beneath a windblown forest canopy, the trail overlooks a series of pocket beaches and tide pools framed by razor-sharp black rocks. From a bench on a deck that memorializes the late “Oyster Jim” Martin, a Ucluelet resident credited with spearheading the trail’s construction, I watched the sun set on the Pacific. Then I returned to the hotel at a brisk pace. Although I shared the path with numerous trail runners and hikers, some of

them accompanied by leashed dogs, I was wary of signs that warned visitors to be cognizant of the resident wildlife: black bears, cougars and wolves. Back in town, we discovered two good restaurants (albeit pricey) in Ucluelet. At Fetch, our hotel’s restaurant, an appleglazed black cod was a memorable entrée. At Norwoods, a few blocks distant, the crusted albacore with tempura prawns was a work of art. There’s nothing like fresh seafood beside the ocean. I hated to leave my friends the next morning.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — When Anna Sendersky graduated from Blue Valley West High School four years ago, she was a teenager with her sights set on college and career. The notion of getting married while she was in college never entered her young mind. “Definitely not!â€? the University of Kansas senior said. “I didn’t even plan on meeting anybody or dating.â€? Think of Anna Sendersky — no, change that ... Think of Mrs. Anna Nordling, now 22 and married to Burk Nordling since May 30, as one of the trend-busters. The Nordlings can also be viewed as believers in an institution whose primacy, according to current figures, is falling like white rice onto concrete. “You can say, without question, that we are at a 50-year low when it comes to marriage rates,â€? said Brad Wilcox, director of the University of Virginia-based Center for Marriage and Families. “Marriage is much less likely today to shape an individual’s life course. Marriage has gotten weaker as an institution.â€? Numbers tell the tale: • In 2010, the Washingtonbased Population Reference Bureau reported that 52 percent of adults were married in 2009, a drop of 10 percent since 2000 and the lowest percentage since the U.S Census began keeping marriage data about 100 years ago. • In lieu of marriage, cohabitation — couples living together — has skyrocketed. About 7.5 million oppositesex couples were cohabitating in 2010, up from 6.7 million the year before. And 500,000 same-sex couples also report living together. • Decade after decade, the median marital age rises. It is now about 28 for men and 26 for women, an all-time high and up from 26 and 24 in 1990. Scholars say the reasons marriage continues to fade are, by now, well established: greater sexual freedom, female financial independence, students flooding colleges, greater social acceptance of both divorce and unmarried couples living together, and skepticism among the children of divorce that marriages will work. Yet, there are people like Amanda Coon, 22, and Hallie Mann, 21. Coon met Kyle Schaffer, 27,

Kansas City (Nov. 26, 1960): Ivo: “You both have to work together. One person can’t make a marriage work.� Joan: “Some days it’s just not easy.

Mann, a senior English major at the University of Kansas, is engaged and plans to wed her high school sweetheart, Darren Frazee, 21, on June 13, after they both graduate. “A couple of my friends say: ‘Seriously?

DEALING WITH PAPERWORK
File it under ‘getting organized’ By Jura Koncius The Washington Post
The 21st century ushered in what was supposed to be paperless living. The data of our lives was to be recorded in digital clouds. We were told to click the option for paperless statements, unsubscribe to unwanted catalogues and keep a shredder nearby at all times. So how are we doing? “We have a bigger need for paper management than before because we have more access to information than ever before,” says Chris Plantan, creative director for Russell & Hazel, maker of stylish office accessories. Plantan says there are lots of files and lots of piles out there.
Issues For many, organizing papers is another chore that inspires procrastination. “It ranks at the bottom of the list, along with having a tooth pulled,” says Melissa Sorensen, a professional organizer based in Woodbridge, Va. Paper management is one of her toughest assignments. “People are hamstrung by fear, worried about what will happen if they throw something out,” she says. “Eightyfive percent of the things you file, you never retrieve again.” Those who do have files often suffer from another issue: figuring out where they put stuff. “I ask people, ‘If you even have it, will you be able to find it?’ ” says
Susan Kousek, a professional organizer in Virginia. Holly Bohn founded See Jane Work, an online source for creative office products, to make the task of staying organized a bit more fun. “Despite technological advances, paper management is a problem because we are bombarded by paper,” Bohn says. “Our lives are so busy and complex we can’t make decisions.” She believes each person has to create her own system to accommodate both mundane paperwork and sentimental mementos.
Solutions Solutions don’t have to start with a clunky metal filing cabinet. Some people are stackers and save things in fabric-covered stackable boxes. Kevin Sharkey, executive editorial director of Martha Stewart Living magazine, keeps decorating information in clear sleeves in color-coded binders. Plantan uses colorful plastic trays to compartmentalize and organize travel information, greeting cards and bills. Bohn’s advice is to make your system flexible. Because many people don’t have a dedicated home office, files should be portable to schlep from dining room table to bedroom. Kelly Vrtis, a Container Store spokeswoman, advises customers to use beautiful file folders (“It makes it more fun to file”) and erasable folder labels.
Africa Continued from C1 Grogan had served in Rhodesia under Cecil Rhodes, a British imperialist and founder of the De Beers diamond mining company, who was set on linking British colonies in Africa via train and telegraph. “Grogan would survey the route, and in the process would become the first person in history to transect the continent from end to end,” Smith writes. “He had some other motivations going on too,” Smith says. “But he kind of wanted to make his mark on the world at the same time.” At the time Smith set out to retrace Grogan’s journey, he was engaged to be married. But in Smith’s case, the trip he undertook was something he felt he needed to do before he settled down. His fiancée’s father had no problem with their getting married: “Any hurdles are purely my own,” he writes in the prologue. “I left home hoping to find some answers in Grogan’s footsteps, some kind of equanimity in the tangle of self-doubt and hesitation I’ve woven in my head.” Smith says he asked himself almost daily during his journey: “Why am I doing this?” His supportive fiancée “was definitely nervous,” he says. “She was concerned for my safety, but she also realized, like I did — maybe I just did a good job of convincing her — that it was something I had to do before

Finding a place for every document • Create a “To Be Filed” inbox, tray, basket or folder to hold things you want to save but don’t have time to deal with immediately. • Set up two kinds of files: a tabletop holder or basket for frequently used active files and a filing cabinet or box for permanent files. • If you are a piler, not a filer, buy stackable trays or flat document boxes, label them and use them as you would file folders. • Set up a designated area for opening mail, with a shredder, recycling bin and trash can nearby. Also have a bin for bills to be paid; put in bills and payment envelopes only. • Make copies of important documents, such as deeds, car titles and birth certificates. Store in a designated folder. Consider scanning these as well: The originals should be in a safe-deposit box. — The Washington Post
Ewart Grogan, a college dropout nicknamed “the Leopard,” was 24 when he set out on a trek from Cape Town, South Africa, to Cairo in 1898. He hoped the epic journey would impress not only the woman he wished to marry, but her father as well.

H BY JACQUELINE BIGAR HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Sunday, Feb. 20, 2011: This year, you have the opportunity to open up to new ideas and different people and to let go of what no longer works. Many of you could see life with renewed vision. You visit with people naturally and more often. If you are feeling off or sad, just walk out the door. Your mood will change. If you are single, meeting people certainly isn’t a problem. Choosing the right person remains the challenge. Get to know someone before committing. If you are attached, the two of you love your downtime together. LIBRA bottom-lines issues. 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 Juggling plans to meet another person’s needs could be exhausting, if nothing else. Push comes to shove, forcing your hand. Talks and communication flourish as you rarely have seen. Tonight: Among friends and/or loved ones. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Your even style and temperament flavor the outcome of a get-together. How will you deal with someone’s controlling behavior? The wise Bull will know not to get involved. Tonight: Think “tomorrow.” Think “rest.” GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Your innate creativity comes forward no matter what. The nature of your plans and interactions might
be serious, yet somehow you infuse the situation and people with joy. Tonight: Celebrate a relationship and a loved one. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Possibilities emerge one more time. A discussion could be difficult yet worthwhile. Just don’t allow others to pressure you to the extent that you don’t do what you want to do. Tonight: Go for the family-dinner routine! LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Understanding often takes on many different forms, and how you express that knowledge can vary. Take a catnap if you feel tired. You will recycle with ease; don’t cancel late-afternoon plans. Tonight: Enjoy the moment and people. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Use care if committing to a large amount of spending. Everyone has and needs a budget — you included. Make sure understandings are mutual. If you feel pressured or manipulated, don’t react; just do nothing.

If you feel as if you might want to cocoon,
the only question is, Why not? A family member (maybe even the cat!) lets you know how much he or she appreciates your company. Tonight: Read between the lines in a conversation. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Join friends and make the most of a get-together. You don’t need to play politics, because these are your pals. Being with others restores your sense of self and well-being. Tonight: Where the action is. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH You could be the snag during a get-together. You might not be aware of how much you rain on another’s parade. Be willing to step back and see yourself. Let someone express his or her true self with comfort. Tonight: Could be late. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH If you feel like you have tripped up on a situation, conversation or choice, step back and detach. Let go of past judgments, then revisit the issue. Reach out for others, especially those at a distance. Decide on a trip in the near future. Tonight: Listen to great music. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH When you notice that someone disappoints you, rather than react, step back. At the same time, use the moment to have a much-needed chat with a loved one. At the end of the day, you’ll feel much better because of this talk and the resulting closeness. Tonight: Add in a little romance. © 2011 by King Features Syndicate

I could fully commit myself.” The hardest part of the twomonth journey was being alone, constantly moving through unfamiliar places, often the only white Western in sight. The stress at all times was low-to-moderate. “Once you get to the end of the book, you’ll see that my epiphany, if you want to call it that, was that I just would have preferred to have (fiancée) Laura there with me, for the rest of my life, from then on,” he says. “I kind of ended the phase of doing this stuff alone.”
Unlike his predecessor of a century ago, Smith was able to remain in somewhat-frequent communication with the woman he loved, via e-mail or a borrowed cell phone. “Maybe I was trying to recapture a little bit of Grogan’s experience, Smith says. “He wasn’t in touch (with Watt) for two years at all. I felt it would kind of be cheating to call every other day, or e-mail every day.” David Jasper can be reached at 541-383-0349 or at djasper@bendbulletin.com.

Florence Welch: A fashion muse emerges from the music scene By Bee-Shyuan Chang
phisticated for the event. “Well, I suppose it’s a compliment in a way,” Welch said of the reaction. “Look, if Givenchy is going to lend you a dress, I’m not going to turn it down. I would wear that dress to just go out and buy a pint of milk if they would lend it to me.” Since 2009, Welch has been working with the London-based stylist Aldene Johnson, who is also the fashion editor of Vice magazine in Britain. “The process of working with Flo has evolved,” Johnson said in a phone interview. Welch, whom she described as “quite brave, quite up for trying things,” is her first and only celebrity client. “The bigger she’s gotten, the more we can do different things than what we could do in the beginning.”
New York Times News Service
Florence Welch, the titiantressed lead singer of Florence and the Machine, has become an idol of the frenetic indie set. But when she received word in December of her first Grammy nomination, for best new artist, she was lounging around her parents’ London home in classic languorous-bombshell mode. “I was wearing this amazing vintage bright pink Christian Lacroix dressing gown, which was kind of ideal to receive news like that,” Welch said in a recent phone interview. “It has these incredible shoulder pads, and I sometimes wear it with this feather headdress — it’s like the cowboys and Indians flimsy kind — that my sister made. It makes me feel like I’m in ‘Gone with the Wind.’ ” Welch, who is 24, almost 6 feet tall and model-lanky, has emerged as a refreshing new fashion muse on the music scene. Unlike so many of her young contemporaries (Lady Gaga, Katy Perry), who are groomed so glossily that they could double as Comic-Con characters, Welch wears her hair disheveled and favors loose peasant blouses and billowing cape-sleeved dresses.
From thrift stores ... “I’ve always been attracted to romantic, secondhand clothes,” said Welch, who has a strong jaw line, long nose and graygreen eyes that turn down at the corners. “But my style developed as I started going to these strange raves where everybody had these very definitive costumes.” Welch was raised in London and developed her bohemian style playing dress-up and “fishing around in secondhand stores.” She and her school friends would pool their lunch money and use it in turns on thrift-store shopping sprees. “I like the idea of taking off like a bird,” she said of the cape sleeves that are part of her signature look. During a perfor-

Florence Welch, the lead singer of Florence and the Machine, says she developed her bohemian style playing dress-up and “fishing around in secondhand stores.” mance of her uplifting single “Dog Days are Over” at Don Hill’s in West SoHo, Welch worked with the exaggerated silhouette by lifting and twirling her arms in hippie-child ecstasy. “It’s this romantic idea that the music could literally lift me off the stage,” she said. Fashion companies have been quick to capitalize on this gypsylike allure. Shortly before the 2009 release of Florence and the Machine’s debut album, “Lungs,” the fast-fashion retailer Topshop approached Welch about designing her stage attire for the Glastonbury Festival that year. “She’s a born showgirl,” said Topshop’s head designer, Jacqui Markham, who collaborated with Welch on three costumes, including a bodysuit with dramatically fringed neckline and sleeves. “She has a natural play-
fulness and innate quirkiness about her.”
... to high fashion Noticeably, since the album became a hit, Welch’s wardrobe has accelerated to considerably more luxurious looks, including the Roksanda Ilincic asymmetrical black silk gown with lace detailing she wore to the 2010 Brit Awards last February; a peekaboo Chanel black chiffon dress with embellished panels at the 2010 V Festival in August; and a gold floor-length gown with leaf embroidery, by Elie Saab, at the Sundance Film Festival in January. Then there was the stunning long-sleeved Givenchy fall 2010 couture gold lace gown she donned for the 2010 MTV Video Music Awards, which some online commenters deemed too so-
SUDOKU SOLUTION
As tends to happen with musicians of the moment, Welch’s sensibility has also seeped onto runways. Both Valentino and Dries Van Noten used Florence and the Machine tracks for their spring 2011 shows. Mulberry went even further, hiring Welch to sing at its after-party and putting a parade of models in red wigs on the catwalk, though fortuitous timing also played a part. “It was a perfect colliding of inspirations,” said Emma Hill, Mulberry’s designer. “I like to design with one girl in mind to have a consistency to the collection, and we found this gorgeous girl from Finland, Julia Johansen, who opened our show. Coincidentally, she has red hair like Florence, and we liked the idea that all the other girls would be mirror images of Julia with red wigs and all. It was all quite bizarre.” Welch watched the spectacle from the front row, wearing a sheer black blouse from her own closet with a Mulberry skirt and booties. “As all the models were filing out, my friend, who was sitting opposite me, was laughing,” she said. “She was like: ‘You should be walking off the runway, too. Go join your fellow girls in the land of ginger.’”
From Fashion Week, hints of a ‘seasonless’ season By Molly Glentzer Houston Chronicle
NEW YORK — The lady’s moving on. That’s the loudest message of the dozens of fall collections that were shown at MercedesBenz Fashion Week. The season’s sensibility has been obvious since the first model pranced down the catwalk. Last season’s bundled-up Eskimo has emerged in a fluid silhouette that’s often sculpted in springlike fabrics such as chiffon and flowy silk. Many of these looks won’t be produced; Fashion Week is about ideas, after all. But it looks like the most “seasonless” season yet. “It’s not so much, ‘It’s winter, so I need layers,’ ” Harper’s Bazaar editor in chief Glenda Bailey said. Climate change may be one influence, she said, “but the lightness is also this idea that you don’t want to be too weighed down. It has more to do with a sense of movement; you can’t go forward unless your clothes will allow you to run.” We are running to feel good again. Designers are expressing optimism as the country
emerges from recession, Bailey suggested. The lessons we’ve brought from the slow economy are driving a refined attitude. Shape-wise, it frequently nods to the late ’50s and early ’60s. Some indie-label designers such as Rodarte are looking further back, to the prim Victorians. Here are some trends to watch for: • Pleats: The ultimate expression of both movement and refinement, pleats are everywhere. Jill Stuart set them just below the hips. Tadashi Shoji and Luca Luca worked them into evening wear. • Tweed: When you want your threads themselves to “move,” tweed is the way to go. It’s a big part of the texture story. Tory Burch made it extra ladylike in a slim-fitting dress. • Color: Burgundy, ochre, orange, teal and even pink are livening up the palette. The color-blocking craze continues to build, bringing pops of contrast. Colorful accessories, especially gloves, bring on the color as well. In the metallic realm, rose gold is the hue de jour.

GRESHAM — After three years as a role player, Summit senior Chris Nyaradi ended his high school swimming career with quite a splash. Nyaradi, who helped the Storm claim three consecutive boys state titles from 2008 to 2010, won his first two individual crowns Saturday at the 2011 Class 5A state swim championships, posting victories in the 200- and 500-yard freestyle races. He highlighted a strong effort by Central Oregon teams from Bend High, Mountain View and Summit at the 5A boys meet, which Corvallis easily won with 62 points. Cleveland of Portland placed second (37 points), South Albany took third (33), and Bend (31) finished fourth for the second straight year. Summit and Mountain View just missed out on bringing home a trophy,

Make that 10 consecutive Class 2A/1A Special District 3 titles for Culver High. The Bulldogs easily won Saturday’s seven-team district meet hosted by Chiloquin and qualified 12 wrestlers for next week’s Class 2A state championship tournament. Culver senior Austin Barany (171 pounds) was one of seven Bulldog champions on the day. Some, like Barany, are state championship veterans. Others, like freshman Noe Gonzalez (103), will be making the trip to the state tournament for the first time. Joining Barany and Gonzalez among the Culver district champions on Saturday were Jared Kasch (112), Josue Gonzalez (119), Ryan Kasch (130), Miguel Gutierrez (140) and Jesus Retano (152). “We’ve got a good mix of old guys and new guys,” offered Culver coach J.D. Alley on the Bulldogs’ 12 state qualifiers. Culver freshmen Kyle Bender (112) and Bolt Anglen (119) faced their teammates in the finals and came away as runners-up. Cody Clugston (145) also finished in second place, as did Mitch Nelson (160) and Justin Hendrix (189). “Now we’ve got to see if we can defend our state title as well,” Alley added. Now in his 21st season as Culver’s head coach, Alley said he expects that few, if any, teams will qualify as many wrestlers for state as the Bulldogs have. Still, securing the Class 2A title will be no easy task. Alley said he looks for Lowell, Reedsport and Gold Beach to provide some stiff competition at state. Culver finished the district meet with 342.5 points, and Scio finished a distant second with 190 points. Another Central Oregon entry in the district meet, Gilchrist, was seventh with 12 points. Crook County took top honors at the Class 4A regional meet, which concluded in Ontario on Saturday. The Cowboys qualified 17 wrestlers for the state meet and posted four champions: Erik Martin (103), Grayson Munn (112), Trevor Ough (171) and Bryson Martin (189). Complete team scores were unavailable. Madras finished with three champions and six qualifiers on the weekend. Miguel Vasquez (125), Travis Williams (215) and Adrian Phillips (285) all won their respective weight classes. Kole Wills (103), Robert Ozuna (119) and Lane McDonald also qualified for the White Buffaloes. In the Class 4A meet, the top four wrestlers from each weight class earn a berth to the state tournament. The OSAA state tournament kicks off on Friday at the Memorial Coliseum in Portland.

Celtics, Heat go to Kobe’s house for All-Star game East All-Star LeBron James
By Brian Mahoney The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — Kobe Bryant needed only a quick survey of the AllStar rosters for the names to jump out at him. “We’re playing the Celtics and the Heat,” he said. “And the Hawks.” Forget that last one. It’s those first two that should spice up tonight’s game on Bryant’s home floor, particularly the presence of a record-tying four players from that hated team in green. “I think there will be some boos in the stands. I’m expecting that,” said San Antonio’s Gregg Popovich, who
will coach the Western Conference. Boston’s Doc Rivers will lead an East team that includes Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Rajon Rondo. He also gets Miami’s Big Three, including LeBron James and Dwyane Wade in his starting lineup. “I can get used to that,” Rivers said. Chicago’s Derrick Rose, Orlando’s Dwight Howard and New York’s Amare Stoudemire are the other East starters, with Atlanta’s Joe Johnson and Al Horford rounding out the reserves. But most eyes will be on the Celtics and Heat, both of whom already won at Staples Center this season. See All-Star / D8

Last-second block leads Arizona to victory over Washington The Associated Press TUCSON, Ariz. — Derrick Williams had 26 points, 13 rebounds and a game-saving block on Darnell Gant with less than a second left, lifting No. 12 Arizona to a wild 87-86 win over Washington on Saturday. Arizona (23-4, 12-2 Pac-10) built a 12-point lead early in the second half, allowed Washington to claw back with a slew of careless turnovers, then pulled out its 15th straight home win behind Williams. The super sophomore scored 10 of his points in the final 6 minutes, including a big threepointer, but saved his best plays for the defensive end in the final seconds. Solomon Hill gave Arizona the lead on a putback with 24 seconds left, and Williams followed a turnover under the hoop by swatting Gant’s shot into the crowd behind the basket. Williams sealed the game by knocking away the inbound pass as time expired and was mobbed by his teammates at midcourt. Lamont Jones had 15 points, and Kevin Parrom and Jesse Perry added 11 each for Arizona in its eighth consecutive win. Matt Bryan-Amaning led Washington (18-8, 10-5) with 20 points, eight rebounds, six blocked shots and four assists. Isaiah Thomas chipped in 12 points for the Huskies, whose hopes of repeating as Pac-10 champions took a big hit with the disappointing loss. Washington won the opening meeting between these teams, pretty handily, too. The Huskies nearly ran Arizona out of the gym and Thomas almost slid out of it, saving a loose ball with a memorable baseball slide on his way to 22 points and 10 assists in the 17-point win. That wasn’t even a month ago, but, wow, how things have changed. The Huskies went into a mini tailspin after completing a sweep of Arizona teams — they beat Arizona State 88-75 two days later — losing three straight road games to drop out of the rankings and to the middle of the Pac10 pack.

Ducks’ Strowbridge scores 26 in win over Beavs The Associated Press EUGENE — It was Jay-R Strowbridge’s birthday Saturday, and the Oregon senior celebrated with a career day. Strowbridge scored a career-high 26 points and the streaking Ducks hit a season-best 13 three-pointers to defeat Oregon State 82-63 and continue their ascent up the Pac-10 Conference standings. “We believe in each other now,” said Strowbridge, 23, whose previous high was 18. “We believe and can see that hard work pays off.” Joevan Catron and E.J.

Oregon State (9-16, 4-10), which trailed by 18 in the first half, pulled within 4839 with 14:06 left in the game. But Strowbridge hit three-pointers on three straight Oregon possessions to spark a run of six straight threes by the Ducks that put them up 66-46 with 8:46 to play. “Jay-R was on fire today and everyone knew it,” Singler said. “That’s what good teams do; they recognize it and get the ball to the person with the hot hand, and

Overall, the Ducks had 19 assists on 25 field goals. “That’s pretty good,” Altman said. “It started with Malcolm. He just made play after play after play.” Armstead sparked a 25-4 first-half run when he hit a jumper and a three-pointer
on consecutive possessions. Teondre Williams also drained back-to-back threes during that run, which put Oregon up 2710 at the 9:14 mark. A three-pointer by Johnathan Loyd with 4:19 to play before halftime gave the Ducks a 37-19 lead, and they went into the break up 42-29. Lathan Wallace had 17 points off the bench for the Beavers, who have lost four straight games since upsetting then-No. 20 Washington on Feb. 3. “The light bulb could come on and we’re hoping it does,” Oregon State coach Craig Robinson said. “We have to do
some soul-searching and see what we want to do with the rest of the season.” The Beavers could never get into a rhythm offensively on Saturday. They shot 37 percent from the field, made just four of 21 three-point attempts and had 19 turnovers. Their defense, which leads the nation with 10.1 steals per game, had just one steal in the first half and four total. “We have a real young group and they’re playing the majority of the minutes,” said Robinson, who starts two freshmen and two sophomores. “I don’t want them to get discouraged.”
MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL ROUNDUP
Cornhuskers score upset over No. 3 Longhorns The Associated Press LINCOLN, Neb. — Count Texas among those very impressed by Nebraska’s upset of the No. 3 Longhorns. Brandon Richardson hit a pair of free throws with 7.2 seconds left to seal the Cornhuskers’ 70-67 win on Saturday. Nebraska hadn’t beaten a team ranked in the top three since knocking off No. 3 Missouri 9891 in the 1994 Big Eight Conference tournament. After Texas’ three-point attempt fell short at the buzzer, Nebraska students stormed the court and hoisted players on their shoulders. “Man, what a great game,” Nebraska coach Doc Sadler said. “How can you not be excited? It’s a great day for us.” The Cornhuskers’ second win over a Top 25 opponent this season broke Texas’ school record Big 12 winning streak at 11 games. Nebraska downed then-No. 13 Texas A&M 57-48 on Jan. 29. Texas coach Rick Barnes said this one wasn’t a fluke. “There’s no question Nebraska deserves all the credit because they were a terrific team today,” he said. “Doc Sadler is one of the great guys in this business, and it couldn’t have happened to a better guy. If this helps them to the NCAA tournament, then it would be great for him. The fans were great, and they definitely deserved to win the game.” Richardson led Nebraska with 15 points, 10 in the second half. Toney McCray added 14. Jordan Hamilton and Brown each had 18 to top Texas. Cory Joseph had 13. Nebraska (18-8, 6-6 Big 12), which trailed by seven points at halftime, took a 64-53 lead on Lance Jeter’s driving layup with 2:35 left. But the Cornhuskers made just six of 11 free throws in the last two minutes to help Texas get back in it. “We made it much tougher than we could have,” Sadler said. “They made some plays. You’re not going to just go beat teams like that. “We just needed to make some free throws.” Texas (23-4, 11-1) went on a 12-1 run, making seven of nine free throws and adding a pair of baskets. Alexis Wangmere’s
free throws tied it 65-65 with 1:07 remaining. Richardson sank a pair of foul shots with 43.5 seconds remaining to put Nebraska back in front, and Drake Beranek made one of two with 24.7 seconds left. Texas’ J’Covan Brown made two of three free throws with 12.6 seconds remaining to cut the deficit to one, but his threepoint attempt at the buzzer fell short. Hamilton said he was confident Texas could come back, even though the Longhorns were trailing by double figures with less than two minutes to go. “There was never a doubt in my mind,” he said. “I think (Nebraska) shot a great percentage in the second half. They played really hard. The crowd got into it. They got loud. We missed some shots, I missed some easy shots, and some wide open looks, even in the first half. That was the outcome.” The Cornhuskers were every bit as confident, even when they were down at halftime. “It was as positive as we’ve ever been in the locker room,” McCray said. “Nobody was rattled, nobody was discouraged or nothing like that. It was almost like we was up. I don’t want to sound stupid, but I didn’t even know the score. We knew it was going to be a 40minute game.” Also on Saturday: No. 1 Kansas . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 89 Colorado. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 63 LAWRENCE, Kan. — Markieff Morris had 26 points and 15 rebounds and Kansas bounced back from a lopsided loss to Kansas State with a victory over Colorado.

Faried snapped Duncan’s modern-era Division I career rebounding mark with 12 boards in the Eagles’ 71-65 victory over Indiana State on Saturday. The 6-foot-8 senior, who also scored 17 points in Morehead State’s ninth straight victory, now has 1,576 rebounds, six more than Duncan collected at Wake Forest from 1994-97. The NCAA’s modern era began after 1973, when freshmen were permitted to play. Faried told The Associated Press in a telephone interview that he takes pride in his rebounding ability and is humbled to be mentioned in the same breath with Duncan. — The Associated Press

SKIING
Baddeley sneaks into lead at Riviera The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — Fred Couples was starting to show his age Saturday at Riviera. He hit a poor wedge, knocked a putt over the back of the green and turned a potential birdie into bogey on the 10th hole to slip three shots behind Aaron Baddeley in the Northern Trust Open. Then came a pounding rain as Couples approached the toughest stretch of the course, and the 51-year-old with an aching back braced for the worst. “I was thinking, ‘What am i going to shoot on the back nine, 40?’” Couples said. “You start playing like those guys did yesterday in that weather, anything would have happened.” Something did. The rain stopped. Couples played the rest of the way in 1-under par, keeping alive his hopes of another win at Riviera, and a chance to become the oldest PGA Tour winner in more than 35 years. Even in good weather, it might not be easy. Baddeley, whose career once held so much promise when he won the Australian Open as an 18-year-old amateur, is starting to hit his stride since returning to longtime swing coach Dale Lynch. He played 22 holes on Saturday in all kinds of weather and hit just about every shot where he was aiming, including a few putts. He birdied the 18th in the morning chill to finish off a second-round 69, then ran off three straight birdies around the turn that led to a 4-under 67 and his first 36hole lead on the PGA Tour in five years. Baddeley was at 10-under 203, one shot clear of Couples and Kevin Na, who grew up in Southern California and attended his first PGA Tour event at Riviera in 1995 when he was an 11-year-old with big dreams. Na also shot a 67. “Tomorrow is going to be a good challenge for all of us,” Baddeley said. Winless in four years, Baddeley probably could not have guessed that the challenge would come from a couple of guys who are nearly old enough to be his father. Couples, who joined the PGA Tour the year Baddeley was born, wound up with a 70. One shot behind was Vijay Singh, who turns 48 on Tuesday and is trying to climb out of the worst slump of his career. He felt like the world’s best putter in the third round, finishing with a birdie on the tough 18th for a 67. Singh last won in 2008 at the Deutsche Bank Championship on his way to the FedEx Cup title. “I’m really fired up for tomorrow,” Singh said. “I’m in a good position to win tomorrow, so we’ll see what happens.” Baddeley’s last victory was in 2007 at the Phoenix Open. Later that year, he had a two-shot lead going into the final

Aaron Baddeley, of Australia, hits to the 11th green as rain falls in the third round of the Northern Trust Open PGA golf tournament at Riviera Country Club in the Pacific Palisades area of Los Angeles Saturday. round of the U.S. Open at Oakmont, only to close with an 80. His game was in such disarray that he has plunged to No. 224 in the world ranking. “It’s been a little bit of time since I’ve been in this position, so I’m excited for the challenge,” Baddeley said. “I’m excited to test out the new action, and I feel good. I feel like it’s going to be fun tomorrow.” Baddeley was among those who went to the “Stack and Tilt” method taught by Mike Bennett and Andy Plummer, then decided to go back to his Australian coach, Dale Lynch. “It’s funny because I feel like I’ve been actually making a lot of progress, but it was never really showing on the scoreboard,” Baddeley said. “So these last few weeks have really been nice to start to put some scores on the board. This week has been really nice.” And there was one nice stretch in particular. It started with a tough approach to the
par-4 eighth, where Baddeley had to be careful not to be too aggressive and run off the slope on the other side of the pin. He put it to within 8 feet for birdie, then holed a 30-foot birdie putt on the ninth. He nearly drove the 10th green, leaving him a delicate pitch to tap-in range for his third straight birdie. One of his few mistakes was a tee shot that led to an adventure through the trees on the par-5 11th. It looked as though he would escape with par when he hit a wedge out of the rough to 4 feet, but he missed the putt. He finished with seven straight pars. Ryan Moore (70) and John Senden (71) were at 6-under 207, while Stewart Cink (71) and Robert Allenby (71) were part of the large group another shot behind. Defending champion Steve Stricker made the cut on the number, then had a 66. That still left him seven shots behind. Stricker is still closer than Phil Mickelson, who struggled to a 74 and was at 2over 215.
The gallery was with Couples, who first won at Riviera in 1990 when his hair was brown and he ambled along with California cool. Couples still has the cool factor to go with his graying hair, and he still has enough game. He narrowly missed a 15-foot eagle putt on the opening hole. He made only one other birdie on the par-5 11th, and otherwise settled for pars except for his lone bogey. It was enough, though, to keep him in the game. “I hung in there,” Couples said. “I didn’t hit the ball exceptionally well, but I hit it solid, which is what I said I needed to do. I just didn’t make enough birdies. So tomorrow I have to come out and fight and see what happens.” Couples was one of the players Na wanted to watch when he came out to Riviera with his father in 1995. Now he will be playing with him in the final group, a chance for Na to get his first victory. And it would be a special one at that. Not only does he have childhood memories of Riviera, his father was diagnosed with leukemia last year and has returned home to his native South Korea for treatment. “My mother is going to Korea next week,” he said. “And hopefully, I can give her a trophy so she can give it to him.” Also on Saturday: Langer leads Champions stop NAPLES, Fla. — Bernhard Langer shot a 6-under 66 and leads the ACE Group Classic by four strokes heading into today’s final round. Langer matched the tournament’s 36-hole record at 14-under 130. Mark O’Meara, Russ Cochran, Fred Funk and Mark Calcavecchia are tied for second. Langer birdied his first three holes on his way to a 31 on the front nine. He bogeyed Nos. 10 and 11, but bounced back with three more birdies. Tseng takes lead in Thailand PATTAYA, Thailand — The topranked Yani Tseng shot a 2-under 70 for a one-shot lead after the third round in the LPGA Thailand. She is trying for her third tournament victory in three weeks. A 4-foot eagle putt on her finishing hole on the Pattaya Old Course at Siam Country Club lifted the Taiwanese star to a 9-under 207 total, one better than American Michelle Wie (71) and second-round leader IK Kim (72). Larrazabal on top at Avantha NEW DELHI — Pablo Larrazabal of Spain eagled the 18th hole in fading light to take the clubhouse lead of the third round of the fog-plagued Avantha Masters. Larrazabal’s 6-under 66 gave him an 11-under 205 total and a one-stroke lead over SSP Chowrasia (67) and fellow Indian Sujjan Singh (68) and Argentine Rafa Echenique (67) at the combined European and Asian tour event.

G A R M I S C H - PA R T E N KIRCHEN, Germany — Marlies Schild led Austria to a 1-2 finish in the women’s slalom at the world championships Saturday, living up to expectations by winning her first major title. Schild led after the first run and overcame some shaky moments in the second to become the first Austrian to win the women’s slalom since Karin Buder in 1993. “I can’t believe it. I tried not to think that I was racing for gold,” said Schild, who posted a two-run time of 1 minute, 45.79 seconds. “The second run was hell. it was tough to ski, I made many mistakes. I just told myself: ‘Fight, fight, fight.’” “I was warned about the hole (in the course). I expected it later, but I saw it in time and negotiated it well.” Kathrin Zettel was 0.34 seconds behind and Maria Pietilae-Holmner of Sweden earned bronze, 0.65 seconds back. Resi Stiegler was the top U.S. finisher in 19th, repeating the result she had two years ago at the worlds in Val d’Isere, France. “As hard as I am on myself I have to be really happy,” said Stiegler, who has struggled since breaking her leg in 2007. “My goal wasn’t to make world championships, it was just to finish the season. My race before this, in Zwiesel, I was top-15 in the first run so I feel like those were accomplishments that I didn’t expect.” In the 13 World Cup slaloms since November 2009, Schild has won all eight in which she completed both runs. She has won five of seven slaloms this season.

“He’s so good. It’s intimidating when you are coming in on him and he is as confident as he is,” Doan said. “I tried to go five-hole. I tried to get him to freeze for a sec.” Kostitsyn cut the Phoenix lead in half with a power-play goal at 6:37 of the second. With Doan serving a delay-ofgame penalty, Mike Fisher sent the puck from the left side in front. Falling to his knees in the low slot, Kostitsyn was able to lift his shot over the shoulder of goalie Ilya Bryzgalov.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Phoenix Coyotes keep winning in very predictable fashion. Keith Yandle and Taylor Pyatt scored 58 seconds apart in the second period to lead the Coyotes to a 3-2 victory over the Nashville Predators on Saturday night. Phoenix tied a season best by winning its seventh straight. Six have been by one goal and four by the score of 3-2. “We created some good chances and unfortunately we gave up that one at the end, but all in all it was good solid team win for us,” Phoenix coach Dave Tippett said. “We played a solid road game. I don’t think we made too many mistakes.” Lauri Korpikoski also scored for the Coyotes. Sergei Kostitsyn and Shea Weber had goals for Nashville, but it wasn’t enough to give the Predators their fourth win in five games. After a scoreless first period, the Coyotes struck twice early in the second. Yandle began the scoring with a wrist shot through traffic that beat goalie Pekka Rinne at 3:51. “I was trying to get it by the first guy, maybe have a screen or a guy there to tip it,” Yandle said. “I don’t think he saw it. Obviously, if you can’t see it, you can’t save it.” Pyatt followed less than a minute later when he drove from the right faceoff dot toward the Nashville net before lifting a wrist shot just under the crossbar. Phoenix captain Shane Doan was awarded a penalty shot 10 seconds into the middle period after he was hauled down from behind by defenseman Alexander Sulzer just inside the Predators blue line. On the penalty shot, Doan faked a slap shot and then tried to slip the puck between the pads of Rinne, but the 6-foot-5 Finn denied the attempt with a stick save.

COLLEGE BASEBALL: SEASON PREVIEW
New bats mark year of changes in NCAA play By Dennis Waszak Jr. The Associated Press
NEW YORK — College baseball’s pings will have a little less zing this season. New aluminum bats designed to improve player safety will be in full swing as the road to the College World Series began Friday with season openers around the country. And don’t expect to see as many big blasts when you head to the ballpark. “I think most people will tell you their home run totals were down this fall by at least 50 percent, some more,” said coach Ray Tanner of defending national champion South Carolina. “It remains to be seen what exactly is going to happen. Pitching and defense will always give you a chance to win. It may be even at a greater premium.” The new bats mandated by the NCAA replace the lightweight composite models used in recent years, when the focus was on the differential between bat weight and length. Now, they’ll perform even more like wood, with shrunken sweet spots that will decrease the exit speeds of the ball off the bat. That means lower power numbers and ERAs while everyone learns to adjust. “I think the guys that can hit will still hit,” said TCU coach Jim Schlossnagle, who wasn’t in favor of the new bats. “But certainly there’s going to be fewer balls leaving the ballpark than in years past.” Plenty of coaches and players said they understood the safety issues involved, but didn’t think the move was necessary. “Offense is something that makes college baseball a little different than professional baseball, and I think fans enjoy that,” LSU coach Paul Mainieri said. “I didn’t want to see the bats change.” But Mainieri also says that after watching his players use the bats, he isn’t sure the change will be that dramatic. “The game is still going to be a very fundamental game,” he said. “We’re not going to sit around and wait for the threerun homer like in the past. We’ve got to get them on, get them over and get them in.” And that won’t be the only big difference in college baseball this year. In an effort to shorten games, which soar past the three-hour mark on average, the NCAA has introduced a pitch clock. Pitchers will have 20 seconds, with no one on base, to throw a pitch or umpires will call it a ball. It’ll be a strike if a batter violates the rule by stepping out of the box. Teams will also have 90 seconds to change sides between innings during non-televised games. “If your catcher just flew out and he’s rounding second or getting to second base on a flyout or he was at second as a runner,
I think you have a shot if you’re not paying attention to be challenged between innings,” Kentucky coach Gary Henderson said. “But it’s going to speed the game up, there’s no question.” Even the destination every college baseball player and coach has envisioned reaching for the last 61 years — Rosenblatt Stadium — has changed. The longtime home of the College World Series is being replaced by the new TD Ameritrade Park in downtown Omaha, a 24,000seat ballpark that includes 30 luxury suites and 2,500 club seats. To many, it’s a clear sign that the sport is thriving. “You don’t build a $125 million new stadium in Omaha unless you’re successful,” Stanford coach Mark Marquess said. “You don’t negotiate new TV contracts unless you’re successful, and college baseball is very successful. It’s the future stars of Major League Baseball. Our product is great, but it’s a big secret. It’s not a secret to the college fans. It’s not a secret to athletic directors who are spending millions to build new facilities. So, we’re healthy.” Tanner’s Gamecocks have been done celebrating the school’s first College World Series title for months. With a handful of starters returning, including outfielders Jackie Bradley Jr. and Evan Marzilli, South Carolina now has its eyes on a return to Omaha. “Last year became magical,” Tanner said. “We played as good as we can play at the right time of the year. Certainly, we know how difficult it will be to repeat. ... The deal is, you just try to get in position.” And there are plenty of teams aiming to be where South Carolina was last June, such as national runner-up UCLA, led by aces Gerrit Cole and Trevor Bauer; Florida’s powerful squad with sluggers Brian Johnson, Austin Maddox and Preston Tucker; and TCU, which made its first College World Series last year behind the blazing fastball of freshman lefty Matt Purke. Other players who could play key roles in whether their schools break in the new stadium in Omaha include Rice third baseman Anthony Rendon, Texas hurlers Cole Green and Taylor Jungmann, Connecticut outfielder George Springer and Cal State Fullerton righty Noe Ramirez. One thing’s for sure: all the changes and overall parity should make for one batty season. “I think there will be surprises,” said Texas’ Augie Garrido, the winningest coach in Division I history. “I think that’s one of the fascinating things about baseball in general, that teams come together unexpectedly and championships are decided by the unexpected.”
Beavers kick off season with win over Gonzaga From wire reports FRESNO, Calif. — Tyler Smith lined a sharp single to right in the bottom of the 11th to send the Oregon State baseball team to a 4-3 victory over Gonzaga in the Beavers’ 2011 season opener Saturday at Beiden Field. Smith took a 3-2 pitch from Gonzaga reliever Mark Phillips and lined it right in front of Tyler Chism in left, bringing in Brian Stamps for his third run of the game and the Beavers’ first victory of the 2011 season. The Beavers had loaded the bases after Stamps tripled with one out, Andrew Susac was intentionally walked and Carter Bell walked. Smith fouled off a 3-2 pitch before lining the shot off Phillips. Tony Bryant worked three scoreless innings to pick up the win. He struck out one and did not allow a Gonzaga baserunner, taking his record to 1-0 this season. Stamps led the Beavers with three hits in his first career appearance and Susac tallied a two-for-three effort. Smith’s only hit came at the perfect moment as both teams had struggled to push runners across the plate late in the game. Overall, Oregon State
Ducks fall to Rainbows in Friday opener HONOLULU – A three-run comeback in the bottom of the eighth spurred Hawaii to a 4-3 victory over 14th-ranked Oregon on Friday night at Les Murakami Stadium on opening day. After taking the lead, the Rainbows brought on righthander Lenny Linsky as he picked up his first save of the season after finishing 2010 with 12 stops on the year. Oregon freshman Porter Clayton took the loss despite only facing one batter. Oregon took on Hawaii Saturday night in the second game of the four-game series, but the results were too late for The Bulletin’s deadline.

AUTO RACING: NASCAR
Uncertainty dominates as season starts at Daytona 500 By Jenna Fryer The Associated Press
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. —The fans will stand in silence, three fingers raised toward the sky, on the third lap of the Daytona 500 in honor of the late Dale Earnhardt. The tribute to mark the 10-year anniversary of Earnhardt’s fatal accident is the only certainty going into today’s season-opening race. Everything from the style of racing, the dominant drivers and what it will take to win NASCAR’s biggest race of the season remained a mystery after one of the more eventful Speedweeks in recent history. Then again, the drivers have accepted that nothing ever goes as planned leading into the Great American Race. “Speedweeks always seems to have a scenario that pops up and you have to adjust to it,” said 2007 Daytona 500 winner Kevin Harvick. The latest dilemma is a radically new style of tandem racing that has dominated the three events leading into the 500. Drivers figured out that hooking up in two-car packs is the fastest way around the freshly paved Daytona International Speedway, and boy were they right: Michael Waltrip topped out at 206 mph in the first race of Speedweeks, sending NASCAR scrambling to slow down the cars. A smaller restrictor plate issued midweek brought the speeds back under control, but NASCAR has yet to break apart the two-car packs that are apparently the new norm. A series of technical changes have limited how long the cars can stay hooked in pairs before their engines begin to overheat, but the drivers have mastered a leapfrogging system that allows them to simply swap positions and resume the two-car push. Establishing partners and figuring out whom to trust became the most important goal of every on-track session. Kurt Busch seemed to master the new style fastest, parlaying it into victories in both the exhibition Budweiser Shootout and the first qualifying race, while others learned valuable lessons. “There weren’t any single people left; they were all married,” Greg Biffle said of becoming separated from teammate Carl Edwards in his qualifying race. “I was kind of left out on that island. The rose ceremony ended quickly for me.” The drivers seem to like the new racing, but fans aren’t sold, frustrated that the whiteknuckle pack racing they love will be absent from today’s race. How big of a concern is it? Clint Bowyer said he fell asleep on his couch while watching the first of Thursday’s twin 150-mile qualifying races. The competitors insist today will be unpredictable, in part because there has yet to be an event with all 43 cars on the track, and because there’s too much at stake with the Daytona 500 title on the line. “I still don’t think we know exactly what’s going to happen,” Harvick said. “We know the twocar stuff is going to work, but we haven’t been out there with the whole pack, so there’s still some unknowns.” That includes what kind of day it will be for Dale Earnhardt Jr., who was scheduled to start from the pole and likely would have been leading the field during the Lap 3 tribute to his father. But NASCAR’s most popular driver wrecked his car during an earlier practice session and switching to a backup means he’ll go to the back of the field when the green flag falls. Starting his fourth season with Hendrick Motorsports, Earnhardt came to Daytona with his third crew chief in three years and hopes that a fresh voice in his ear can snap a 93-car winless streak. It would be fitting if it came at Daytona, where the grieving continues 10 years after the elder Earnhardt’s fatal accident on the last lap of the 2001 race. Earnhardt Jr. is respectful of the anniversary, but eager to get the attention on racing. “I’m here to race. I understand the situation, and I’m looking forward to seeing how my father’s remembered and honored,” he said. “I just want to focus on my job, what I need to do every single corner, every single lap, what’s best for me at this moment, what gets me closer to

Stewart nips Bowyer in Nationwide Series race at Daytona DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Tony Stewart has mastered how to win at Daytona International Speedway on Saturdays. Now, if he could only figure out how to win on Sundays. Stewart continued his domination of the Nationwide Series season opener, overcoming a late pit stop to fix a flat tire to catch Clint Bowyer at the finish line. It was his fourth consecutive win in the opener for NASCAR’s second-tier series and sixth in the past seven seasons. He’s been unable to carry that success into the main event, the Daytona 500, a race he’s yet to win
Victory Lane on Sunday. That’s all I’m going to concern myself with.” So he’s giving no thought to the conspiracy theorists who believe it’s already set up for him to win on today in an anniversary fix. “I don’t really get into the hypothetical, fairy tale sort of stuff,” he sniffed. But there is one fairy tale that had already played out. Brian Keselowski, the jour-
in 12 previous starts. “The first thing I thought about is ‘Man, here we go with another Saturday that we win, and we’ll have bad luck (today),’” Stewart said. Stewart had bad luck on Saturday — a flat tire that forced him to give up second place for a late pit stop under caution. It dropped him to 11th on the restart, with six laps to go, and he hooked up with Landon Cassill to charge his way through the field. Bowyer, the pole-sitter, led the field with Dale Earnhardt Jr. pushing him around the track. Bowyer and Earnhardt took off in a two-car pack,
neyman older brother of rising NASCAR star Brad Keselowski, used help from his little brother in his qualifying race to earn his first berth in the Daytona 500. It will be Brian Keselowski’s first career Sprint Cup race. With an underfunded car and a crew that consists of his father and his uncle, he’s not expected to take home the trophy today. Just being part of the show is enough. No matter how he
with Stewart and Cassill hooked up, and Kyle Busch and Joey Logano paired. The three two-car packs put on a thrilling show up to the final lap, when the Busch-Logano tandem ended with Busch hitting the outside wall and spinning down the track. Bowyer had to brace for Earnhardt’s eventual attempt to pass, and he was busy blocking the move when Stewart and Cassill came blazing along the outside. Stewart nipped him by .007 seconds, the closest finish in Nationwide Series history at Daytona. — The Associated Press
finishes, Brian Keselowski will start today with tons of new fans and perhaps an opportunity to make more of his fledgling career. “It still goes to show you that you’ve got a chance no matter what,” he said. “It gives everybody a shot at it and says that the independent guy that can go out and find a race car, put it together, get a good push, everybody’s got a chance at that.”

Boys Continued from D1 Bend High junior Doug Steinhauff (100 freestyle) and Mountain View freshman Brandon Deckard (200 individual medley, 100 backstroke) also won state titles. Competing in events that were not always his strongest for the sake of his team early in his career, Nyaradi finally got to shine as an individual Saturday at the Mt. Hood Community College pool. Nyaradi, who hopes to continue his competitive swimming career at the U.S. Naval Academy, won the 200 freestyle (1 minute, 45.75 seconds) by just over a second. He then posted a thrilling half-second victory in the 500 free, besting Corvallis freshman Brandon Shreeve with a mark of 4:43.97 to the Spartan’s time of 4:44.47. “When I wrote his recommendation for the Naval Academy, one of the first things I talked about is that he knows how to be a team player,” Summit coach Amy Halligan said about Nyaradi, who also swam on the Storm’s 200 medley and 200 freestyle relay squads, which finished second and fifth, respectively, on Saturday. “The last three years he swam in events that maybe weren’t his top races, but he did it because we needed the points there.” Nyaradi entered this weekend’s state meet as a bit of a dark horse after posting solid but not spectacular times at the Class 5A Special District 1 meet Feb. 11 in Bend. Going into Friday’s preliminary round, Nyaradi was the fifth seed in the 200 free and the seventh seed in the 500 freestyle. “It helped me, knowing that I had to do something special if I wanted to win,” Nyaradi said about his underdog status. While Nyaradi’s victories capped a standout high school career, Deckard’s wins for Mountain View in the 200 IM and 100 backstroke provided a glimpse of the future. Deckard set a new 5A state meet record in the 200 IM (1:54.10) early in the meet before blowing out the field in the 100 backstroke with a time of 52.23 seconds. Backstroke runner-up Sam Donahue of Cleveland finished more than two seconds back in 54.29. Deckard also helped the Cougars to a fifth-place finish in the 200 medley relay. Later he was named the swimmer of the meet. “We’re getting there,” Mountain View coach Kory Bright said about the return to prominence of a squad that last season did not qualify a single swimmer for the boys state championship. “Each year

He took second place in the 50, and he won the 100 free. we’re getting better.” Mountain View’s is not the only Central Oregon boys swim program on the rise. Led by Steinhauff’s championship in the 100 free and his runner-up effort in the 50 freestyle, Bend High finished just two points out of third place Saturday and six points out of second. Steinhauff personified the Lava Bears’ jump from state participant to potential championship contender. “Last year I was happy to be in the finals, happy to make the top three,” said Steinhauff, who at the 2010 state meet finished second in the 100 freestyle and third in the 50 free. “This year I was here to win. Next year I’ll kill it even more.” In addition to Steinhauff’s first- and second-place finishes, Bend’s 200 medley and 200 freestyle relays both placed third. Also, Lava Bear senior Joshua DeCelles placed fourth in the 100 breaststroke. “He’s a kid who came out for swimming four years ago and wasn’t a swim-
mer,” Bend coach Kendra Anderson said about DeCelles. “Now he’s leaving with the fourth-fastest breaststroke time in the state. That’s fun to watch.” In the Class 6A championships, Redmond managed two team points on a couple of 12th-place finishes by Matt Carpenter. The Panther sophomore was sixth in the B final and 12th overall in both the 200- and 500-yard freestyle events. Sunset of Portland captured the 6A team championship with 139 points. Grant of Portland was second with 125 points. Ian Goodwin, of Madras, placed fifth in the 500 freestyle, and teammate Jordan Gemelas finished sixth in the 100 breaststroke while competing in the Class 4A/3A/2A/1A championships.

THE BULLETIN • Sunday, February 20, 2011 D7 Summit’s Suzy Foster races to second place in the 100-yard butterfly during the Class 5A state meet in Gresham on Saturday. Photos by Matthew Aimonetti / For The Bulletin
Girls Continued from D1 “My first state meet was overwhelming,” said Brewer, referring to her experience last season when she competed in the much larger four-day Ohio state swimming and diving championships as a freshman. “This was a little different, but fun.” Summit rebounded from a disappointing preliminary round on Friday, when the Storm’s 400 freestyle relay failed to qualify for the finals. Having only two of its three relay teams racing Saturday made a state championship run — something Summit coach Amy Halligan said before the meet was a possibility — almost impossible. But the Storm still managed to earn a trophy. For Summit, the 200 medley relay finished fifth, the 200 freestyle relay placed fourth, and junior Suzy Foster took second in both the 200 individual medley and the 100 butterfly. Junior Brooke Walsh added a fourth-place effort in the 50 freestyle and a fifth-place finish in the 100 free. Bend High also had a run of high finishes, mostly by its younger swimmers. Sophomore Jennifer Tornay placed third in the 50 freestyle, and she swam on the Lava Bears’ 200 medley and 200 freestyle relay squads that finished third and fifth, respectively. “We came up with some big swims,” Bend coach Kendra Anderson said. “It seemed like half our kids entered the finals
as (number) six seeds but finished in the top three.” Mountain View also rode the strength of its younger swimmers, among them freshman Phoebe Weedman, who posted a runner-up finish in the 500 freestyle and took fourth in the 200 free. Kory Bright, the Cougars’ coach, said she was pleased by the progress shown by her rebuilding program. “My daughter’s 12 years old,” said Bright. “I told her I’ll coach until she graduates. Hopefully by then we’ll have this thing to where we want it to be.” In the Class 6A meet, Redmond tallied eight points to finish 22nd among 26 teams. In the 100 backstroke, Panther freshman Rachel Haney placed third in the B final and ninth overall. In the 100 breaststroke, Redmond sophomore Teagan Perkins also placed third in the B final for ninth place overall. Jesuit of Portland won the 6A team championship with 183 points, and Southridge of Beaverton was second with 118 points. In the Class 4A/3A/2A/1A state meet, Madras’ Elizabeth Armitage finished sixth in 50-yard freestyle. The Sisters foursome of Katie Stewart, Tia Berg, Samantha Williamson and Michelle Young placed fifth in the 200 medley relay. Beau Eastes can be reached at 541-3830305 or at beastes@bendbulletin.com.

Longhorn Network has other schools scrambling By Chris Duncan The Associated Press
COLLEGE SPORTS
HOUSTON — Last month, officials with the University of Texas and ESPN Inc. trumpeted their 20-year, $300 million deal to create a 24-hour television network that will broadcast Longhorns sports. “We’re going to cover (Texas) football like it’s never been covered before,” said Burke Magnus, senior vice president of college sports programming for ESPN. George Bodenheimer, president of ESPN Inc. and ABC Sports, called the network “a testament to the school’s remarkable, tradition-rich success and widespread, devoted fan base.” The schools who compete with Texas see it a little different. The prospect of Texas athletics potentially reaching the homes of young athletes across the country has competing schools scrambling for ways to keep pace. One rival suggested the network offers an unfair advantage that merits NCAA scrutiny. The Texas deal also may include coverage of some high school events, and Texas A&M athletics director Bill Byrne says that should raise questions about the possibility of illegal recruiting practices. “I can’t speak for the NCAA, but I would imagine the governing body will look into the use of a collegiate television network airing games of prospective studentathletes,” Byrne said in a statement. “I understand networks such as FSN and ESPN airing high school sports, but whether or not employees under contract with a university that may have additional contact would seem to be an issue.” The NCAA referred questions about the TV deal to the university and ESPN. The agreement calls for exclusive broadcasts of at least 200 Longhorns’ games per year, including all the school’s non-revenue sports. The still-unnamed network is scheduled to debut in September, and school officials
say it also will air academic and cultural programming. Texas will control the content, so the network virtually amounts to a 24-hour advertisement that offers another enormous recruiting advantage for a school already among the richest and most powerful in the country. High school athletics directors said the network will have a major impact on impressionable youngsters mulling college choices, especially those in other states. “I think it is the wave of the future,” said Ben Pardo, the athletics director at Pearland High School, which won the Texas 5A football championship in December. “We’re in a visual society, and any kid who sees that and is exposed to that anywhere, that will certainly have an impact on how a kid perceives a university. That certainly is a great way for a university to expose what it has to offer to a younger and more widespread group.” Ray Seals, the football coach and athletics coordinator at Houston’s Madison High School, where former Texas quarterback Vince Young played, said the network also gives Texas a valuable selling point to prospective athletes’ parents. “The sports like field hockey and things like that, you never see it on TV,” Seals said. “Now, knowing that you can get that kind of exposure, that’d be hard to turn down for a youngster nowadays.” Grasping the possibilities, Oklahoma plans to launch a similar network within the next year. Like Texas, the Sooners’ football and basketball programs already garner plenty of national exposure. Oklahoma baseball coach Sunny Golloway said such a network will help the lower-tier sports stay on equal footing with their rivals across the Red River. “I think it’s got a chance to be huge and I’m concerned that I don’t want Texas to jump out in front of us on that,” he said. “I
don’t want to be on the road recruiting here in a couple months and some kid says, ‘Hey, they’ve got the Texas Network.’ I’m going to come right back, ‘We’ve got the Oklahoma Network,’ and I need the program right away to sell.” Other Big 12 schools without the same resources or reach are hoping for ways to stay competitive on the recruiting trail. Missouri athletics director Mike Alden thinks the answer is developing methods of transmitting easy-to-access information to mobile devices. “I think what it means for us, it means we have to continue to find ways to deliver our product,” Alden said. “Those are things I think all of us are working on and it’s something Texas is able to do and it’s good for them. I don’t know if it hurts us, but it will definitely help them with what they are trying to do.” All the schools in the conference are eager to see how the TV deal affects the future of the league. Texas turned down offers to join the Big Ten and the Pac-10 last summer in part so it could launch the network, but school officials say they’re committed to the league and do not intend to break off and become an independent. Big 12 Commissioner Dan Beebe said the Longhorns’ deal can work in harmony with the league’s current TV contracts. The Big 12 has a $480 million deal with ABC-ESPN that runs through 2015-16, and a $78 million contract with Fox Sports Net through 2011-12. “All of our members have acknowledged that no institutional distribution system will be allowed to diminish the value of the conference’s media agreements,” Beebe said in a statement. “And all indications are that the Big 12 is in a great position to enhance its future collective media arrangements, while allowing institutions to distribute content that is not used by our television partners.”

Overachieving Blazers winning despite injuries By Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press

Los Angeles Clippers’ Blake Griffin flies over a car for a dunk after teammate Baron Davis threw him the ball during the Slam Dunk Contest at the NBA All-Star Saturday Night in Los Angeles.
Clippers’ Griffin slams over car to triumph in dunk contest By Greg Beacham The Associated Press
LOS ANGELES — With a gospel choir at midcourt encouraging him to fly, Blake Griffin soared over a car and threw down a two-handed dunk. The rookie’s remarkable leap won the slam dunk contest, and it also drove home the clear point of All-Star Saturday: The Clippers’ rising star is just at the beginning of one thrilling ride. Griffin easily cleared the hood of the 2011 Kia Optima and caught a pass from teammate Baron Davis out of the sunroof while the berobed Crenshaw Select Choir sang “I Believe I Can Fly,” winning the 26th NBA dunk contest in iconic style before his hometown fans. “There’s a little pressure on us to really put on a show, but I thought those guys all did a great job,” said Griffin, who beat Washington’s Javale McGee in the final. Griffin grew up watching and rewatching every dunk contest
All-Star Continued from D1 Bryant denied gaining extra motivation from seeing them again, insisting he gets up to play anybody. But Lakers fans might feel differently if Rivers goes ahead with his previously mentioned plan and puts the four Celtics on the floor together. “Four of them going out there, it might get your blood going,” said former Celtics All-Star and current Turner Sports analyst Kevin McHale. “I’m sure they’ll look out and think the Celtics are invading again.” The Lakers beat the Celtics in Game 7 of last year’s NBA finals at Staples Center. An exhibition game could never replace that, but Rivers and his players would love to walk off their longtime rivals’ court as winners ahead of the chance they really want in June. That will require the Celtics and Heat, developing their own rivalry, to play nice for a night. James said that’s no problem, recalling that his East winners in 2006 had four Detroit Pistons, the only other team to have four players picked by the coaches as reserves. “For that weekend, as hard as it is, we’ll kind of put the rivalries and the dislikes aside for the better of the fans and the better of the game,” James said. Rivers is glad to hear it — even if he doesn’t necessarily buy it. “I’ve always been amazed by it, even when you know guys don’t like each other,” he said. “In this case, I don’t know if that’s true, but there are certain guys on different teams that don’t like each other. And then they’re in the All-Star game. I’ve always laughed when you see ’em like laughing and joking. You know, boy, they’re so ... phony right now. That’s what you want to say. But that’s good. As long as we win the All-Star game,
on videotape with his brother in Oklahoma, studying the event’s evolution. He said the car dunk was his idea from the very start — a perfect way to show off his combination of raw athleticism and Hollywood flair. “When they first came to me ... they said there were no rules,” Griffin said. “I was like, ‘So I can jump over a car? Yeah? Oh, maybe I have to do it now.’ I figured I could probably clear it, and Baron came up with the choir.” The move could have petrified the Clippers, with the starcrossed franchise’s epic history of bad luck — even with Griffin, who missed all of last season after breaking his kneecap in the final preseason game before what was supposed to be the No. 1 pick’s rookie campaign. Griffin has become internationally famous for his incredible dunks, but a leap over a car? Sounds like a Clipper Curse moment just waiting to happen. Clippers owner Donald Ster-
too, that’ll be fine.” Joining Bryant in the West lineup will be the Hornets’ Chris Paul, NBA scoring leader Kevin Durant of Oklahoma City, Denver’s Carmelo Anthony — yes, he’s still in the West, at least for now — and San Antonio’s Tim Duncan, whom Popovich chose Thursday night to replace Yao Ming. The Houston center was voted in by fans despite being injured. Among the west forwards are Dallas’ Dirk Nowitzki, the Lakers’ Pau Gasol and the Clippers’ Blake Griffin, the first rookie picked for the All-Star game since Yao in 2003. Griffin’s high-flying style should fit perfectly in today’s game, where defense is usually absent for the first 3½ quarters. Setting up the hometown player is an All-Star game tradition, so what do you think, rook? “I heard there’s another hometown guy,” Griffin said with a laugh. That would be Bryant, who returns in front of his frenzied fans after having to sit out last year’s game at Dallas Cowboys Stadium with an ankle injury. A threetime MVP of the All-Star game, he is one shy of the record held by Bob Pettit. Wade won last year, and James earned the award while helping the East win two of the previous four contests. They could be even better together on the All-Star stage after a half-season as teammates in Miami — and would be OK with sharing the celebration with the Celtics. “Every All-Star that I’ve been to, guys always put the season aside and focus on that weekend,” Wade said. “Being an All-Star, when you’re there, it’s special. It’s special to look around in that locker room and say, ‘Man, I’m blessed to be one of the best players that this game has to offer.’ It’s just a special time.”
ling was in attendance, perhaps watching between the fingers of the hand over his eyes. “I could have clipped my foot, I guess,” Griffin said. “That’s what I was afraid of — just clip my foot on the side and smash my face into the car. Fortunately, it worked out.” Earlier, Miami’s James Jones held off Boston teammates Paul Pierce and Ray Allen to win his first three-point shootout, and Golden State’s Stephen Curry won the Skills Challenge. But Saturday was all about Griffin, who started the contest with a 360-degree spin dunk before converting a bounce pass off the side of the backboard to finish the first round. The first rookie All-Star in eight years then brought back an impossibly difficult favorite with his first dunk of the final, sticking his arm into the hoop and hanging from it by his elbow, just as Vince Carter did while winning the 2000 contest.
WHAT’S IN IT FOR
YOU?
PORTLAND — In mid-December the vibe around the Portland Trail Blazers seemed fairly bleak. Center Greg Oden was already out for another season because of knee surgery, and something was wrong with All-Star guard Brandon Roy, too. It was clear that Roy was in trouble on Dec. 15 against the Dallas Mavericks, when he had just four points in 30 minutes, well off his season average of 16.6 points per game. Portland lost 103-98. Roy would sit for the rest of the month while questions swirled about the health of his knees. Finally, on Dec. 30, the Blazers announced that the former NBA Rookie of the Year was sidelined “indefinitely.” Roy had arthroscopic surgery on both knees on Jan. 17. He has said the problem is too little cartilage cushioning the bones in the joint. The loss of Roy was a major blow to Portland, which had been banking on the trio of Roy, Oden and LaMarcus Aldridge to propel the franchise into the Next up NBA’s elite. To make matters • L.A. Lakers worse, veteran center Marcus at Portland Camby, who helped get Portland to the playoffs last season, also • When: went down with a knee injury in Wednesday, January. 7:30 p.m. But instead of dwelling on some incredible bad luck, the Blazers did what they became known for last season when a series of injuries struck. They moved on. Portland won six of its next eight games when Roy sat out following the Dallas loss. Now resting over the All-Star break, the Blazers (32-24) have won a season-high six straight games and are fifth in the Western Conference. Portland is a seasonbest eight games over .500. Guard Andre Miller needed just two words to describe Portland’s success: “Everybody contributes.” The efforts of Miller, Aldridge, Wesley Matthews and Nicolas Batum have kept Portland’s season from a downward spiral. Aldridge, in particular, has emerged as the focal point of the Blazers, who have run their offense through him in Roy’s absence. The 6-foot-11 Texan is averaging 26.3 points and 9.7 rebounds since Dec. 15. He has 10 games this season with at least 30 points, eight of those games coming since Roy left. Overall he’s averaging 22.3 points and 8.9 rebounds. “He’s really evolved in his all-around play,” Matthews said. “For most players that’s the next evolution: Can he make others better? He’s really doing that.” While Miller has been his usual steady force at the point, averaging 13.2 points and 7.4 assists, Matthews has stepped in to Roy’s role. The Blazers acquired Matthews as a restricted free agent last summer from Utah, which did not match Portland’s offer. The move has certainly paid off, with Matthews averaging 16.5 points per game. Additionally, the Blazers have been sparked off the bench by dynamic playmaker Rudy Fernandez and Australian guard Patty Mills. In his second year, Mills has filled a morale-boosting role as the team’s cheerleader with the invention of the team’s popular “3 Goggles” gesture for three-pointers. “I like where we are right now as far as what has happened,” coach Nate McMillan said after a recent game.

LaMarcus Aldridge (12) has averaged 26.3 points and 9.7 rebounds a game for the Blazers since Dec. 15. The team dynamics could change quickly however, as trade rumors swirl around Miller, Fernandez and veteran center Joel Przybilla. General manager Rich Cho recently declared he wasn’t going to talk to the media for the time being, telling The Oregonian newspaper that he didn’t want to have to lie to anyone about possible moves. Last season, Portland players missed a combined 311 regular-season games because of injury, second only to the Golden State Warriors and most among playoff teams. Only two players, Miller and former forward Martell Webster, were healthy for all 82 games. The Blazers were hit particularly hard at center, when Oden and Przybilla both suffered season ending injuries in December. But Portland brought in Camby, and the Blazers won a surprising 50 games and made it to the playoffs. This season it was much of the same. In addition to Oden and Roy, Camby needed arthroscopic surgery in mid-January to repair a partial meniscus tear in his left knee. Camby, a 6-foot-11 veteran of 15 NBA seasons, was averaging 5.9 points, 11.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.87 blocks in 39 games this season, all starts. Additionally, second-year forward Jeff Pendergraph injured his knee in the preseason and required season-ending surgery, while rookie guard Elliot Williams has had surgery this season on both knees. Roy and Camby have both returned to practice. Roy told reporters this past week that he hoped to play when the Blazers host the defending NBA champion Lakers on Wednesday. Last season, Roy had arthroscopic surgery to repair the meniscus in his right knee two days before the Blazers opened their first-round playoff series against Phoenix. He made a remarkable comeback and played in the fourth game of the series, which the Suns eventually won.

Experience economy vs. monetized economy
T
yler Cowen’s e-book, “The Great Stagnation,” has become the most debated nonfiction book so far this year. Cowen’s core point is that up until sometime around 1974, the American economy was able to experience awesome growth by harvesting lowhanging fruit. There was cheap land to be exploited. There was the tremendous increase in education levels during the postwar world. There were technological revolutions occasioned by the spread of electricity, plastics and the car. But that low-hanging fruit is exhausted, Cowen continues, and since 1974, the U.S. has experienced slower growth, slower increases in median income, slower job creation, slower productivity gains, slower life-expectancy improvements and slower rates of technological change. Cowen’s data on these slowdowns is compelling and has withstood the scrutiny of the online reviewers. He argues that our society, for the moment, has hit a technological plateau. But his evidence can be used to tell a related story. It could be that the nature of technological change isn’t causing the slowdown but a shift in values. It could be that in an industrial economy people develop a materialist mind-set and believe that improving their income is the same thing as improving their quality of life. But in an affluent informationdriven world, people embrace post-materialist mind-set. They realize they can improve their quality of life without actually producing more wealth. For example, imagine a man we’ll call Sam, who was born in 1900 and died in 1974. Sam entered a world of iceboxes, horse-drawn buggies and, commonly, outhouses. He died in a world of air-conditioning, Chevy Camaros and moon landings. His life was defined by dramatic material changes, and Sam worked feverishly hard to build a company that sold brake systems. Sam wasn’t the most refined person, but he understood that if he wanted to create a secure life for his family he had to create wealth. Sam’s grandson, Jared, was born in 1978. Jared wasn’t really drawn to the brake-systems business, which was withering in America. He works at a company that organizes conferences. He brings together fascinating speakers for lifelong learning. Jared lives a much more intellectually diverse life than Sam. He loves Facebook, YouTube, Wikipedia and his iPhone apps. But many of these things are produced outside the conventional monetized economy. They don’t even create many jobs. As Cowen notes in his book, the automobile industry produced millions of jobs, but Facebook employs about 2,000, Twitter 300 and eBay about 17,000. It takes only 14,000 employees to make and sell iPods, but that device also eliminates jobs for those people who make and distribute CDs, potentially leading to net job losses. In other words, as Cowen makes clear, many of this era’s technological breakthroughs produce enormous happiness gains, but surprisingly little additional economic activity. Jared’s other priorities also produce high quality-of-life gains without huge material and productivity improvements. For Sam, income and living standards were synonymous, but for Jared, wealth and living standards have diverged. He is more interested in the latter than the former. This means that Jared has some rich and meaningful experiences, but it has also led to problems. Every few months, new gizmos come out. Jared feels his life is getting better. Because he doesn’t fully grasp the increasingly important distinction between wealth and standard of living, he has the impression that he is also getting richer. As a result, he lives beyond his means. Jared worries about that. He also worries that the Chinese and others have a material drive that he and his cohorts lack. But he’s not changing. For the past few decades, Americans have devoted more of their energies to post-material arenas and less and less, for better and worse, to the sheer production of wealth. During these years, commencement speakers have urged students to seek meaning and not money. Many people, it turns out, were listening. David Brooks is a columnist for The New York Times. John Costa’s column will return.

Fears vs. facts Should the public’s horror of cancer be a factor when EPA weighs new regulations? By David Ropeik Special to The Washington Post
magine being told you will contract either of two fatal illnesses, cancer or heart disease. Which way would you choose to die? Most people opt for heart disease. Understandably. They believe cancer brings greater pain and suffering, and that they can control the risk of heart disease but can do little to reduce the risk of cancer. But death by heart disease is far more likely. In 2007, the last year for which final data are available, heart disease killed about 616,000 in the U.S. Cancer was second, killing about 563,000. And heart disease kills across a broader range of demographics. Wouldn’t it make more sense to be more afraid of what’s more likely to kill you? Yes, but that’s not how we perceive risks. Risks have psychological and emotional characteristics that make some feel scarier than others, the probabilities notwithstanding. A long, painful cancer death may be no worse than a long, painful heart disease death, but we think it would be and feel we can’t control it, and that makes cancer more feared. That is precisely what a new proposal at the Environmental Protection Agency is trying to acknowledge. When assessing whether a new regulation would be worth the money, the agency projects how many lives it would save versus the costs of implementing it. But now,
I
the EPA suggests that death by cancer is so frightening to the public that cancer deaths should carry greater weight in its calculations than deaths by other causes. This may have some ethical and emotional appeal, but it carries serious dangers. As part of the cost-benefit analysis required for all regulations whose impact on the economy would be at least $100 million, economists developed a system that places a dollar amount on lives saved, to make an apples-to-apples comparison to the cost of the rules and regulations. It’s called the value of a statistical life. VSL is economically rational to some, emotionally repugnant to others and poorly understood by most. Here’s how it works: People who would be affected by the regulation are asked in “willingness to pay” surveys what they would spend to reduce the risk of dying by, say, 1 in 100 or 1 in 10,000. If people in the affected population are willing to pay an average of $100 for a risk reduction of 1 in 10,000, and there are, say, 10 million people in the population, then the population as a whole is willing to pay $1 billion for that risk reduction. Out of the affected population of 10 million, a 1-in-10,000 risk reduction will save 1,000 lives. So each of those lives is worth $1 million — the $1 billion everyone’s willing to pay divided by 1,000 lives saved. VSL is a mathematical way to convert people’s willingness to pay
Top 10 killers The numbers are clear: Heart disease kills more Americans than cancer. But people fear cancer more, so the EPA is floating a proposal that would give the risk of that disease more weight in policymaking.
Annual deaths in the U.S. from: 616,067 Heart disease
562,875 Cancer
135,952 Stroke
127,924 Chronic lower respiratory diseases
123,706 Accidents (unintentional injuries)
74,632 Alzheimer’s disease
71,382 Diabetes

for safety into a quantitative measure for rationally comparing the costs and benefits of a regulation. But while scientific, VSL doesn’t feel human, because the psychology of risk perception involves more than math and probabilities. How scary a fatality risk feels depends not just on whether you might die, but how.
‘Cancer premium’ The EPA proposal tries to respect those feelings. Under its “cancer premium,” the VSL of lives saved from cancer would be 50 percent more than that of lives saved from other causes of death. So this premium would incorporate our greater fear of cancer into the analysis of whether regulations are worth the
cost. That may seem democratic: Cancer is scarier, and shouldn’t our government protect us from the things we’re more afraid of? The danger of this approach, which is under review by the Economics Advisory Committee of the EPA’s Science Advisory Board, gets back to the psychology of risk perception. Our assessment of risk is not conscious but a subconscious, instinctive combination of facts and feelings. This is neither smart or dumb, rational or irrational. It’s just part of who we are, and despite its pitfalls, it’s pretty good at keeping us safe. But for all its success, a system that depends on affect and not just fact can also get us into trouble, because sometimes, we get risk wrong. See Risk / F6

There are still places to cut
Y
ou’ve heard the refrain before: Whenever the call comes to cut state government, the concern is that something vital will be lost. The argument just last year was that
Oregon government has already been cut so deeply that there are no good places left to cut. We don’t believe it, nor does Gov. John Kitzhaber. Look at Kitzhaber’s proposed budget for the Department of Administrative Services. That’s the state’s centralized administrative agency. The department found a way to save $3 million for the next two years. It’s going to let go of 61 state custodians, responsible primarily for buildings in Salem. By contracting out for those services, the state projects $3 million in savings. In other words, that state has been paying $3 million more than necessary to get its buildings cleaned. We don’t dispute that there is value in having those 61 people employed by the state. There’s not much of an argument that throwing 61 people into unemployment will be good for them. Custodians also told Salem’s Statesman Journal that as state employees, rather than contractors, they feel more of a connection to their work. It gives them more of an incentive to go beyond what might be stipulated in a contract. They said they have done things like sandbag buildings when floods threatened and that they have important duties in evacuating buildings in case of emergency.
The cleaning work that needs to be done will get done with contractors and it’s for $3 million less. If floods threaten or there is some other kind of emergency, you never know what people will do. There are other cuts in the DAS budget. There are eliminations of a few printing positions and equipment. More documents will be printed online. That saves about another $1 million over two years. About $800,000 will be saved over two years by cutting four people who have provided technical support for computer problems. Call volume has been light. The work will be transferred to another technical support team. Eliminating unnecessary and less than necessary spending like those examples at DAS does not solve the state shortfall. A big piece of the solution still has to be negotiated with the state’s unions. Kitzhaber is asking for a 5.5 percent cut in personal services, or wages and benefits, across state government. But when DAS looked hard, it found ways to keep state government running and save taxpayer money. Oregonians should not be easily satisfied when they hear there is no good place left to cut.
Madras High aims higher — and scores M
adras High School teachers work with one of the most diverse populations in the state, not only ethnically and culturally, but economically. It means that challenges meeting federal benchmarks can be more difficult to reach than in some other communities and that educators must be particularly creative. Now Madras High teachers are trying something new, and already it’s paying off. Students who are failing to meet state standards in reading and math give up their right to choose elective classes until the standards are met. Instead, they’re getting special attention in “workshop” classes that focus on those two areas. Principal Gary Carlton says that for now the workshop classes are aimed largely at freshmen and sophomores, and so far results have been impressive. After the first semester this year, 48 workshop students met math benchmarks and passed out of the special class, while 35 reading students did so. Not all students will find their stint in workshop classes that brief, of course. But some will, in particular those who were already close to meeting benchmarks, Carlton says.
For them, a short period of special instruction is likely to be just the thing. Meanwhile the high school is focusing on the quality of its teachers, as well. Because it received federal stimulus dollars to put improvements in place, it has not only been able to hire additional teachers to run the workshop classes, it has been able to hire master teachers and put emphasis on training faculty members to become better teachers. That sort of professional development is also money well spent, Carlton believes. Madras High educators have their work cut out for them. The school reports some of the lowest reading and math scores in the state and ranks among the 18 lowest-achieving schools in Oregon. Yet Carlton and others believe they’ve solved at least part of their problems. Current test results, while still not up to snuff, are far better than they were a couple of years ago. The trade-off, a loss of elective choices, may be tough on students, but it’s worth making. Being unable to read and do math as well as their peers will cause them problems their whole lives, and Madras High aims to see that doesn’t happen.
Mrs. Bush, abstinence and Texas T GAIL oday, let’s discuss choices, starting with Barbara Bush raising an alarm and Gov. Rick Perry’s personal experience with sexual abstinence. I did throw in the last one to keep you interested. Sue me. This month, The Houston Chronicle published an opinion piece by the former first lady titled “We Can’t Afford to Cut Education,” in which Bush pointed out that students in Texas currently rank 47th in the nation in literacy, 49th in verbal SAT scores and 46th in math scores. “In light of these statistics, can we afford to cut the number of teachers, increase class sizes, eliminate scholarships for underprivileged students and close several community colleges?” she asked. You’d think there’d be an obvious answer. But the Texas Legislature is looking to cut about $4.8 billion over the next two years from the schools. Budgets are tight everywhere, but Perry, the state’s governor, and his supporters made things much worse by reducing school property taxes by one-third in 2006 under the theory that a higher cigarette tax and a new business franchise tax would make up the difference. Which they didn’t. “In Austin, I’ve got half-a-dozen or more schools on a list to be closed — one of which I presented a federal blue-ribbon award to for excellence,” said Rep. Lloyd Doggett. “And several hundred school personnel on the list for possible terminations.” So the first choice is what to do. You may not be surprised to hear that Perry has rejected new taxes. He’s also currently refusing $830 million in federal aid to education because the Democratic members of Congress from Texas — ticked off because Perry used $3.2 billion in stimulus dollars for schools to plug other holes in his budget — put in special language requir-
COLLINS ing that this time Texas actually use the money for the kids. “If I have to cast very tough votes, criticized by every Republican as too much federal spending, at least it ought to go to the purpose we voted for it,” said Doggett. Nobody wants to see underperforming, overcrowded schools being deprived of more resources anywhere. But when it happens in Texas, it’s a national crisis. The birth rate there is the highest in the country, and if it continues that way, Texas will be educating about one-tenth of the future population. It ranks third in teen pregnancies — always the children most likely to be in need of extra help. And it is No. 1 in repeat teen pregnancies. Which brings us to choice two. Besides reducing services to children, Texas is doing as little as possible to help women — especially young women — avoid unwanted pregnancy. For one thing, it’s extremely tough for teenagers to get contraceptives in Texas. “If you are a kid, even in college, if it’s state-funded you have to have parental consent,” said Susan Tortolero, director of the Prevention Research Center at the University of Texas in Houston. Plus, the Perry government is a huge fan of the deeply ineffective abstinenceonly sex education. Texas gobbles up more federal funds than any other state for the purpose of teaching kids that the only way to avoid unwanted pregnancies is to avoid sex entirely. (Who knew that the health care reform bill included $250 million for abstinence-only
sex ed? Thank you, Sen. Orrin Hatch!) But the state refused to accept federal money for more expansive, “evidencebased” programs. “Abstinence works,” said Perry during a televised interview with Evan Smith of The Texas Tribune. “But we have the third highest teen pregnancy rate among all states in the country,” Smith responded. “It works,” insisted Perry. “Can you give me a statistic suggesting it works?” asked Smith. “I’m just going to tell you from my own personal life. Abstinence works,” said Perry, doggedly. Tortolero, who lectures around the country on effective ways to prevent teenage pregnancy, once testified before a committee in the Texas House that was considering a bill to require that sex education classes only provide information that was medically accurate. The bill was controversial. I’ll let you ponder that for a minute. Tortolero said she got some support from a legislator who was also a pediatrician. “We talked back and forth for a month. But some groups in Texas were threatening him and he was a very junior member,” she recalled. The bill died. Meanwhile, Perry — having chosen not to help young women avoid unwanted pregnancies and not to pay enough to educate the booming population of Texas children — wowed the crowd at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, with his states’ rights rhetoric. Which would be fine, as I said, if his state wasn’t in charge of preparing a large chunk of the nation’s future work force. Perry used to be famous for his flirtation with talk of secession. Maybe we should encourage him to revisit it. Gail Collins is a columnist for The New York Times.

Central Oregon should have more dog-friendly skiing By Kreg Lindberg Bulletin guest columnist
A
cross-country skier without a dog can spend half an hour skiing the two-mile Beginner Loop at Swampy Sno-park and then spend days skiing the other 98 or so miles of trails along Cascade Lakes Highway. A skier with a dog can ski the two-mile Wanoga Trail and then … ski the Wanoga Trail ’round and ’round again, 49 more times, to ski the same distance as her “non dog” friend. This is because the Wanoga Trail is the only ski trail we’re allowed to access along the highway. We’re getting dizzy skiing the same short loop over and over again. That is why DogPAC is pursuing better winter recreation options for people who ski or snowshoe with their dogs. A partial listing by the Cross Country Ski Areas Association indicates there are 69 groomed trail systems in 22 states and provinces that allow dog skiers. These
examples inspire us and demonstrate that quality dog-friendly winter recreation is both possible and desirable for Central Oregon residents and visitors. I encourage you to reflect on why dozens of communities consider quality dogfriendly skiing to be a normal and safe part of their recreation options. Available data indicate roughly as many people in Central Oregon would ski with their dogs as without dogs — if dog skiers have quality opportunities. More than 260 comments have been submitted to the Deschutes National Forest in support of better dog-friendly access, with more than 160 specifically focused on opportunities to ski or snowshoe with dogs. The Wanoga trail is temporary, located in a snowmobile area, and cannot be expanded (we’ve tried). Wanoga is not a solution, nor is Edison or Skyliner (poor snow conditions), nor the proposed Kapka Sno-park (motorized). The forest’s management plan indicates that skiers
IN MY VIEW should have options in non-motorized areas, and the forest’s own research indicates this is especially true for dog skiers. Mixing snowmobilers and dogs is not good for either. Dog skiers were allowed north of the highway for the first 80 years of the Deschutes National Forest. In 1984, “dog averse” skiers removed dog skiers from the area. DogPAC supports restrictions in selected areas, but the 1984 restrictions apply to all cross-country trail systems along the highway. The forest’s management plan notes that the key to resolving inter-group conflict is to provide quality opportunities for all groups. Because such opportunities do not exist elsewhere, it is time for us to return to our “native habitat” north of the highway. We seek a smaller version of the groomed, ungroomed and snowshoe options available to those without dogs, and
we seek to achieve this while minimizing impacts on existing trails. Swampy is the only sno-park north of the highway with sufficient parking. We have proposed that dog skiers be allowed to access the Nordeen Plateau, because it is flat, located inside a loop that already is groomed (Tangent), and largely separated from trails that remain dog-restricted. People using dog-friendly trails have safe and enjoyable experiences through a basic commitment to trail design (oneway and avoiding hills) and maintenance (DogPAC provides poop bags and trash cans at Wanoga, and we clear waste from these cans). For those wishing to use trails that remain restricted, a commitment to design (separate trails and trailheads), education and enforcement means that skiers wishing to avoid dogs can do so. Members of the Central Oregon Nordic Club recently had a great time skiing on the dog-restricted trails in Methow Valley, Washington. Last year, I also had a
great time skiing the Methow — because it provides 62 kilometers of groomed dogfriendly trails. Change is difficult, and it helps to remember that this is not about dogs. It is about how we as a community address change, resolve differences and manage citizen access to our public lands. We will truly succeed as a community only if dog guardians respect the interests of the dog averse, and the dog averse respect the interests of dog guardians. This occurs elsewhere, and we believe this is the future for Central Oregon. DogPAC has sought to work collaboratively with both the Deschutes National Forest and the Central Oregon Nordic Club. We will discuss access issues with any person or organization willing to “come to the table” to work toward a collaborative solution.

O Pruning farm subsidies to cut deficit I
n times of massive deficits, why are we borrowing millions to subsidize profitable agribusiness? Lots of presidents have asked that question. George H.W. Bush tried to cut farm subsidies in the late 1980s. Bill Clinton did, too. George W. Bush wanted them ended as well. All failed. The so-called 1996 “Freedom to Farm Act” was supposed to stop farm supports for good, by offering the carrot of extending crop payouts to growers, regardless of current commodity prices, in exchange for ending the flow of federal money altogether after a slow weaning-off period of seven years. But when it came time to honor the agreement, suddenly a new rationale appeared — that of post-9/11 security. So crop subsidies reappeared under the “Farm Security and Rural Investment Act of 2002,” on the dubious premise that in a new terrorist climate, Americans needed to ensure the prosperity of agribusiness. “Investment” in today’s bureaucratese, remember, translates into the government borrowing more money to distribute to special interests. When worries about national security gradually died down, and when it was clear that agribusiness would not end subsides as promised over a sevenyear period, a new justification arose: providing fuel for an energy-strapped America under the “Food Conservation and Energy Act of 2008” — a $288 billion, five-year agricultural bill. Sup-
VICTOR DAVIS HANSON posedly farmers now needed massive crop subsidies largely to ensure our independence from foreign oil producers and sky-high gas prices. Even presidents cannot stop Congress from passing these unnecessary federal farm bills, because they are brilliantly, if not cynically, conceived. Such federal support always utilizes the current crisis of the day — whether promises to cut the deficit, protect the country or provide new energy. Two disparate special interests push massive federal agricultural subsidies. Agribusiness wants lots of government support money; the entitlement industry wants more food stamps and rural entitlement programs. Combine them, and we spend billions more each year to subsidize both constituents. Who can stop a bill pushed through by Kansas conservatives and Chicago community organizers — especially when multiyear farm legislation always seems to start at or near national election time? What politician wants to go on record against rural “family farmers” or the urban “needy”?
But 2012 is finally the time to end the crop-subsidy business, with the annual budget deficit approaching $1.5 trillion in 2011, farmers receiving record prices on the open market, and the new conservative House of Representatives having been elected on the promise of fiscal responsibility. Corn reserves are at their lowest point in 15 years, as prices skyrocketed nearly 70 percent in almost one year. Escalating world wheat prices have caused unrest in the Middle East. Soy, dairy and meat prices are likewise reaching record levels. In other words, a growing world population, increased affluence abroad and demands for higher-priced meats and vegetables, and diversion of prime cropland for biofuel from Europe to Brazil — in perfect-storm fashion — have made food a lucrative business. We need a drastic reset of agricultural policy. The use of prime ag land to grow corn varieties for ethanol biofuel makes no sense. Why divert farmland for fuels when the world’s poor are short of food, and there are millions of un-farmable areas in Alaska and the arid West, as well as off the American coast, that are either not being tapped for more efficient gas and oil or are only partially exploited? When North Americans do not fully utilize their own fossil-fuel resources, two very bad things usually follow: one, someone else in Africa, Asia or Russia
is far more likely to harm the environment to provide us oil; two, precious farmland will be diverted to growing less-efficient biofuels instead of food — and billions worldwide pay the price. No supporter has ever been able to explain why the advent of massive subsidies over the last half-century coincided with the decline, not the renaissance, of “family farmers.” Nor has anyone offered reasons why cotton, wheat, soy, sugar and corn are directly subsidized, but not, for example, nuts, peaches or carrots. Finally, the United States is supposed to be the world’s premier free-market economy, based on the principles that competition is good, and that entrepreneurs freely reacting to markets create more wealth when unfettered by government red tape. Why, then, would the conservative agribusiness community want government intrusion that warps world food markets, ends up hurting the global poor, and contributes to an unsustainable national debt? In the next few years, conservatives are going to have to cut entitlements and social spending. To retain their credibility, they must apply the same standards of fiscal responsibility to agribusiness that they will have to apply to other areas.

TRUDY RUBIN red, black, and white colors. Off to one side of the square, a small crowd has gathered around a makeshift memorial to the 376 people known to have died during those 18 days. On Friday, groups that organized the demonstrations are calling for a million people to gather in Tahrir Square and in public spaces around the capital to celebrate the ouster of President Hosni Mubarak and to commemorate the dead. But there will be more to this demonstration than has been publicly announced. “We want to make clear to the military and the world that the revolution is not complete,” I was told by Eyad Dawoud, 28, who hosts a youth program on the independent Dream TV channel. “This gathering will be a kind of pressure on the military to keep on with reform.” Like most young people who were drawn to Tahrir Square, he had no previous political affiliation. But now, Dawoud says, “we want to see elections that are clean and not controlled by the military.” If this happens, Egypt will have achieved something no Arab country has accomplished before. Of course, the obstacles that threaten this dream are legion: Arab society is patriarchal and lends itself to strong rulers; the army, which is now overseeing constitutional reforms, is a
product of the old system and profits from it. Moreover, the old regime crushed independent political parties, and the Facebook rebels have so far shown no interest in organizing new ones. The Muslim Brotherhood, while not representing a majority, is by far the best-organized political group. I will examine all of these obstacles during my visit. But two factors make it impossible to dismiss this Arab revolution as doomed to failure. First, it was made in Egypt, which Arabs have traditionally called the “mother of the world.” Historically, Egypt always led the Middle East in politics and culture. Yet, in the last 30 years, the country stagnated
think ethnic cultural continuity will somehow mask the wrenching and sometimes dangerous break with the past that newcomers face. Cameron fantasizes that a reinvigorated, hardsell approach will make abstract liberal ideals into a tie that binds as tightly as ancient tribal or religious bonds. Here’s the dirty little secret of the Western world: Exalted political ideals notwithstanding, Western democracies have historically fallen back on whatever tribal, racial, ethnic or religious solidarity they can drum up to solidify their identities. France, for instance, had liberte, egalite and fraternite, but what mattered most was the ne plus ultra of ethnic Frenchness. In Britain and the U.S., national unity has been built as much on whiteness as any other factor. The truth is, without relying on some form of old-fashioned tribalism — or perhaps the unifying effect of a war — we have no idea exactly how the rapidly diversifying nations of the West will cohere moving forward. The only thing we can know for certain is that both sides of the debate over multiculturalism are fooling themselves. Gregory Rodriguez is a columnist for the Los Angeles Times.

and the label became a joke. This revolution has galvanized a powerful wave of national — and civic — pride that was absent for decades. “People went to Tahrir Square as Egyptians,” I was told by Hussein Shabka, a sociology professor at the American University of Cairo. He says the demonstrations were not about religion — indeed, Muslim and Christian leaders initially told their followers not to participate — nor were the protests about pan-Arab ideologies. “There were no (traditional) party flags,” Shabka said. “People were chanting, ‘Long live Egypt.’” He believes that Egypt, which had a nascent democracy until Gamal Abdel Nasser imposed military rule in the 1950s, has a chance to lead the Arab world again — this time with democratic reforms. The new, positive, Egyptian nationalism can be a powerful force. The second factor: Egyptians have lost their fear of authoritarian rulers. “Over the past 30 years, the military developed a security apparatus that terrified us all — my generation and my parents,” Shabka said. Egypt’s young rebels confronted this apparatus with a strategy of nonviolence and broke the grip that this paralyzing fear had on society. This improves the chances that the revolution won’t slide back into despotism. No one knows how this revolution will end, and I will be talking to many Egyptians about its prospects. But the leap forward made by Egypt’s young people in the last month can’t be easily dismissed. Trudy Rubin is a columnist for the Philadelphia Inquirer.
Multiculturalism: What are the ties that bind us? By Gregory Rodriguez Los Angeles Times
M
ulticulturalism breeds terrorism. That’s what British Prime Minister David Cameron said Feb. 5 in a high-profile speech in Germany, thereby opening up an absurd new chapter in the never-ending debate over how much to embrace, exalt and protect cultural differences in Britain and beyond. Now, I’m no fan of multiculturalism, which is essentially the belief that ethnic minorities should be encouraged to maintain their traditions. In Britain, that encouragement extends to state funding for ethnic organizations to ensure cultural continuity for the nation’s immigrants. The U.S. employs soft “multiculti” — mostly sloganeering about the glories of diversity. Common sense tells us that too much emphasis on tribe, ethnicity or previous nationality can be at odds with the common purpose and cohesion of a nation with a large, diverse population. But suggesting that taxpayer support of the corner Bangladeshi knitting circle or a Muslim civil rights organization causes homegrown terrorism is a little like saying sex education creates rapists. What’s interesting about Cameron’s
speech, however, is not the hyperbole but the poor logic. His solution for dealing with the challenges of diversity, and his confusion about causes and effects, may only make matters worse. In his speech, Cameron decried multiculturalism’s “hands-off tolerance” of some cultural behaviors — he used the example of forced marriages — that are antithetical to Western values. Instead, Britain needs to win the hearts and minds of newcomers with the ideals of personal liberty and individualism, combating multiculturalism-induced rootlessness that can cause some to find a home in political extremism. Cameron gave his anti-multiculti prescription a name: “muscular liberalism” — a reference to the political philosophy that venerates personal liberty, not to American partisanship. “Freedom of speech, freedom of worship, democracy, the rule of law, equal rights regardless of race, sex or sexuality,” Cameron said, would provide “a clear sense of national identity that is open to everyone,” especially to young Muslims who are caught between cultures. The only problem is that the freedoms Cameron champions, worthy as they are, hardly constitute firm “roots.” Anglo American liberalism is essentially a collection of abstract ideas, and
abstractions simply aren’t as effective as bloodlines and religious ritual when it comes to bringing people together as a nation. The ideology of individual liberty, admits Nancy Rosenblum, a Harvard political scientist and an adherent of liberalism, can produce a “disaffected experience” because “ordinary men and women cannot recognize themselves in it.” In other words, it may not be multiculturalism that breeds rootlessness, but liberalism itself. A 2010 study on homegrown terrorism by researchers at Duke University and the University of North Carolina bears this out. The researchers found that losing one’s familial, traditional cultural identity was a more likely route to radicalization than maintaining those ties. Trying to adopt the values of the new, mainstream culture can sometimes create the kind of alienation that can lead to extremism. To fight the type of terrorism that Cameron fears, the study recommends communitybuilding measures, like multiculturalism, to strengthen ethnic identity. In reality, neither Cameron nor the multiculturalists have the answer for creating cohesion in modern, diverse, globalized states. Multiculturalists
Pharaoh without a mummy CAIRO — ne thing I can tell you about Egypt: It is not Las Vegas. What happens in Egypt does not stay in Egypt. For the last 30 years, that has been the bad news. Egypt was in a state of drift and decline and, as a result, so was the Arab world at large. Egypt has now been awakened by its youth in a unique way — not to fight Israel, or America, but in a quest for personal empowerment, dignity and freedom. In this part of the world, people have very sensitive antennae for legitimacy and authenticity because they have been fed so many lies by their leaders. Because Egypt’s democracy revolution is so homegrown, because the young people who led it suffered more dead to liberate Egypt than the entire Egyptian Army has suffered since the 1973 war to defend it, this movement here has enormous Arab street cred — and that is why, if it succeeds (and the odds are still long), other young Arabs and Muslims will emulate it. Indeed, if it can move Egypt to democracy, this movement, combined with social media, will be more subversive to autocratic regimes than Nasserism, Islamism or Baathism combined. I understand why Israel is worried; a stable relationship with Hosni Mubarak has given way to a totally uncertain relationship with Egypt’s people. But Egypt’s stability under Mubarak was at the expense of those people, and they finally had had enough. The Arab tyrants, precisely because they were illegitimate, were the ones who fed their people hatred of Israel as a diversion. If Israel could finalize a deal with the Palestinians, it will find that a more democratic Arab world is a more stable partner. Not because everyone will suddenly love Israel (they won’t). But because the voices that would continue calling for conflict would have legitimate competition, and democratically elected leaders will have to be much more responsive to their people’s priorities, which are for more schools not wars. That is why the most valuable thing America could do now is to help Egypt’s democracy movement consolidate itself. And the best way to do that would be to speak its language. It would be to announce that the U.S. intends to divert $100 million of the $1.3 billion in military aid to Egypt this year to build 10 world-class science and technology high schools — from Aswan to Alexandria — in honor of all Egyptians who brought about this democratic transformation. “Nothing would have a bigger impact here,” said Ahmed Zewail, the Egyptian-American Nobel Prize laureate in chemistry. Nothing would have a bigger impact on youth across the Middle East. On my way back from Tahrir Square on Saturday, I ran into five young Egyptians who were trying to wipe off “Leave Now, Mubarak” graffiti spray-painted on a stone wall. You don’t see students removing graffiti very often, so I asked them why. “Because he is not our president anymore,” said a youth with the rubber gloves and solvent. They just didn’t want to see his name anymore — even as the object of an insult. As I kept walking to my hotel, I realized why. When I looked down at the Nile embankment — and this was central Cairo — all I saw was garbage strewn about, a crumbling sidewalk and weeds sprouting everywhere. I thought: If this were Sydney, Singapore or Istanbul, the government would have built a beautiful walkway along the banks of the Nile. Not here. And that in my view was Mubarak’s greatest crime against his people. He had no vision, no high aspiration, no will for great educational attainment. He just had this wildly exaggerated sense of Egypt’s greatness based on the past. That is why I feel sorry for those Egyptians now clamoring to get back money they claim the Mubaraks stole. “He is a pharaoh without a mummy,” the Egyptian playwright Ali Salem said to me of Mubarak. He left little trace. “Every Egyptian citizen is carrying inside them 100 short stories of pain and novels of grievance. Everyone has to pay for their children to take private lessons after school because the schools are so bad. Can you imagine? You prevent yourself from eating to pay for private lessons?” At least these rebellious youth, he added, “don’t know the rules, so they are not afraid of anything. They can do what our generation did not dare to think of.”
Reasons reforms in Egypt might succeed CAIRO — he air of hopefulness is so palpable in Egypt’s capital city — as people try to digest what happened to them during their revolution — that it’s easy to become a dreamer. This is Egypt’s interregnum of hope, a period that comes just after “people power” ousted a dictator, but before the meaning of the revolution has become truly clear. At this point, it’s still possible to imagine that Egypt might produce the first democracy the Arab world has known. My Egyptair flight from New York to Cairo was full of young professionals and families eager to get home and feel the difference for themselves. At the airport Wednesday, a young woman selling me a cell-phone SIM card, who was in Tahrir Square during the demonstrations, told me, firmly: “The people have spoken.” She said she was looking forward to voting for the first time for president and parliament; she never bothered before because elections were rigged. Cars course through Tahrir Square once more with drivers oblivious to army tanks parked around the edges. Groups of young people rush about with brooms cleaning up garbage from the square, while others, wearing plastic gloves, paint the metal railings a bright green along the Kasr el-Nil bridge. In 40 years of visiting Egypt, I’ve never before seen this kind of civic activism. Flowering shrubs have been planted on the roundabout in the middle of the square, which was trashed during the demonstrations. Many cars sport stickers saying “I’m Proud to Be an Egyptian.” Hawkers are selling Egyptian flags, and headbands in the flag’s

Joyce Carol Oates grapples Young Library: Four who stood up by sitting down with loss of her beloved By Judy Green “A Widow’s Story: A Memoir” by Joyce Carol Oates (Ecco, 418 pgs., $27.99)
By David L. Ulin Los Angeles Times
When, at 6:15 a.m. on Feb. 11, 2008, Joyce Carol Oates saw her 77-year-old husband, Raymond Smith, eating breakfast, she did not — could not — know that he would be dead within a week. Still, she acknowledges in “A Widow’s Story,” her memoir of his death and its aftermath, she had the feeling that all was not right. “There is an hour, a minute — you will remember it forever — when you know instinctively on the basis of the most inconsequential evidence, that something is wrong,” she observes. A fastidious man, an academic and literary journal editor whom Oates met when they were both graduate students, Smith gave off little signals: He sat hunched, as if he were exhausted, and the tabletop was scattered with used tissues. “Something in the way in which these wet wadded tissues are scattered,” Oates writes, “the slovenliness of it, the indifference, is not in Ray’s character and not-right.” That, in narrative terms, is the precipitating incident, “the first of a series of ‘wrongful’ events that will culminate,” the author tells us, “in the utter devastation of your life as you have known it.” It’s useful, in reading “A Widow’s Story,” to keep such strategies front and center because this is a highly constructed piece of work. For Oates, as for Joan Didion — Oates’ book superficially resembles Didion’s 2005 memoir of widowhood “The Year of Magical Thinking” — the key to coping with tragedy is to engage with it, to seek in the logic of language some of the order that has been stripped from daily life. Oates, however, also understands the inherent futility of that effort, its inability to mitigate the loss. “It is amazing to me,” she reflects, “how others wish to believe me so resilient, so — energized. ... Mornings when I can barely force myself out of bed, long days when I am virtually limping with exhaustion, and my head ringing in the aftermath of an insomniac night, yet the joshing-jocular exclamations are cast on me like soiled bits of confetti — how infuriating, the very vocabulary of such taunts — Writing up a storm, eh?” The reference, of course, is to Oates’ vaunted prolificacy; she has published more than 100 books, as well as countless reviews, essays and magazine
pieces, starting with her first collection of short fiction, “By the North Gate,” in 1963. And yet, among the most surprising aspects of “A Widow’s Story” is how quickly literature deserts her in the wake of Smith’s death of complications from pneumonia. “In fact,” she notes, “I am not able to write fiction any longer, except haltingly. … For weeks I labored on a single short story, that was finally completed last week. Of the many ideas for stories that assail my brain when the Cymbalta-haze lifts there is not one that I feel I can execute.”
Oppositions Here we confront the tension that “A Widow’s Story” embodies — between the drive to tell stories, on the one hand, and the uselessness of stories as a consolation. It’s a starkly oppositional perspective, and it helps to highlight the other oppositions that motivate the book. There’s the pull between Joyce Carol Oates the author (“In this posthumous state my career — all that has to do with ‘Joyce Carol Oates’ — has come to seem remote to me, faintly absurd, or sinister”) and Joyce Carol Smith, the widow, keeper of her husband’s memory. There’s the struggle to know and the frustration of not knowing, the awful recognition that, even after 47 years of marriage, much remains fundamentally enigmatic about those we love. Equally essential is a certain opposition of form: a memoir by a writer who prides herself on being private, who has never written such a book before. “This,” Oates writes, “is the era of ‘full disclosure.’ The memoirist excoriates him-/herself, as if in a parody of public penitence, assuming then that the excoriation, exposure, humiliation of others is justified. I think that this is unethical, immoral. Crude

“Sit-In: How Four Friends Stood Up by Sitting Down” by Andrea Davis Pinkney (Little Brown, 40 pgs. $17, ages 6-9)
It’s easy to forget the court decisions, sit-ins and bus boycotts that pushed our nation toward integration. An excellent refresher comes from Andrea Davis Pinkney in her well-conceived picture book about the first sit-in, at a Woolworth’s lunch counter on Feb. 1, 1960, in Greensboro, N.C. She fills her calm, straightforward free verse with wordplay and food metaphors, beginning with the four college students — David, Joseph, Franklin and Ezell — who ask for “a doughnut and coffee with cream on the side.” Her repetition of this phrase emphasizes her theme: “Combine black with white to make sweet justice.” The second day, the waitress reminds the students, “Whites only,” but they are “treated like a hole in a doughnut — invisible.” A police officer comes and leaves because there is no crime. Pinkney weaves in references to Martin Luther King Jr.’s teachings of non-violence, which appear in big, bold type. When the white folks dish out “a big dose of hatred — served up hot and heaping” — the students remain calm. “Practicing peace while others showed hatred was tough-
er than any school test.” Brian Pinkney’s free-form illustrations in watercolors and India ink energize this understated retelling of the sit-in. Older readers will pore over the author’s annotated civil rights timeline. “Thunder Over Kandahar” by Sharon E. McKay (Annick Press, 264 pages, $22, ages 12 and up); Listening Library, $39, 6 CDs, 6 ½ hours; unabridged production read by Mozhan Marno
Actress Mozhan Marno’s dramatic reading turns Sharon E. McKay’s novel “Thunder Over Kandahar” into powerful theater for the ears. Marno skillfully voices all the characters and her pacing matches this tale of friendship in modern Afghanistan. McKay takes readers deep into the country’s ancient culture as it’s ripped apart by war, the Taliban and modern life. Danger pulses all around two 14-yearolds who serendipitously become loyal friends. Tamanna is an Afghan village girl hired to befriend Yasmine, an English-born girl of educated Afghan parents who want to help rebuild their country. “Thunder’s” courageous characters and their cultural dilemmas will linger long after the final scene.

and cruel and unconscionable.” And then, in the next paragraph: “As the memoir is the most seductive of literary genres, so the memoir is the most dangerous of literary genres. For the memoir is a repository of truths, as each discrete truth is uttered, but the memoir can’t be the repository of Truth which is the very breadth of the sky, too vast to be perceived in a single gaze.” What makes these oppositions important is their connection to grief, which is, for Oates, a matter of derangement, in which truth (to the extent that we can ever see it) is in a constantly fluid state. At times, she imagines her husband as not dead but elsewhere, as if he’d left the house. At others, the finality of his absence is so crushing that she contemplates suicide. She quotes Camus and Nietzsche, Hemingway and Kafka, trying to build a rational frame around this least rational of experiences; even as she confides in us, she recoils against the intimacy it requires. The dislocation is most affecting when it comes to her description of their marriage. She was only 22 when she married Smith and inexperienced in the world. Their courtship was brief — three months — but their marriage was built on a comfortable routine. Or was it? As “A Widow’s Story” develops, the question grows increasingly prominent. “Most of my novels and short stories,” Oates reflects, “were never read by my husband. He did read my non-fiction essays and my reviews ... but he did not read most of my fiction and in this sense it might be argued that Ray didn’t know me entirely — or even, to a significant degree, partially.” As for her side, she is just as pitiless: “What is frightening is, maybe I never knew him. In some essential way, I never knew my husband. ... For I had known my husband — as he’d allowed himself to be known, but the man who’d been my husband — Ray Smith, Raymond Smith, Raymond J. Smith — has eluded me.” There is, of course, a certain irony to this, because Smith was a literary figure in his own right: the founder and longtime editor of the Ontario Review. Still, in the context of the memoir, it is not irony but desperation we are left with, a despair so all-consuming that we wonder how Oates — how anyone — can survive. “The widow doesn’t want change,” she writes. “The widow wants the world — time — to have ended.” Faced with that, Oates wants us to recognize, stories can take us only so far.

The Seattle Times
Bainbridge Island writer Jonathan Evison delivered quite the calling card in 2008 with “All About Lulu,” his debut novel about obsessive love, bewildering sibling relations and the world of professional bodybuilding. In his new work of fiction, “West of Here,” he ramps up the ambition even higher, jam-packing half a dozen or more novels, sometimes rather awkwardly, into one. The setting is the town of Port Bonita (a lightly disguised Port Angeles) and the nearby Olympic Mountains. The action flips back and forth between the winter of 1889-1890 and the summer of 2006. There’s not so much a plot as a huge rotating cast of characters taking brief turns in Evison’s spotlight. In 1889-1890, we have headstrong Eva Lambert, unmarried, eight months pregnant, on the run from her wealthy Chicago family, living in a utopian colony near Port Bonita and determined to make a go of it as an activist journalist. We also have explorer James Mather, about to lead an expedition through the heart of the Olympics out to the Pacific Coast, as well as Ethan Thorn-
burgh, the father of Eva’s child, who dreams of damming the Elwha River. Also in the picture: Thomas, a Klallam tribe teen who’s either epileptic or gifted with some psychic form of time-travel. In 2006, we have David Krigstadt, an amiable, lonely slacker type whose driving passion is proving that Bigfoot exists. His boss, Jared Thornburgh, scion of one of Port Bonita’s first families, puzzles over how to speak publicly about the impending demolition of the dam his ancestor built. Curtis, a troubled Klallam teenager, seems to be the twin-across-time of epileptic-visionary Thomas, while Timmon Tillman, an ex-con on the lam, winds up retracing the path of the 1889-1890 expedition. At least a dozen other characters are key to the action. What Evison is trying to do with this crowded canvas is create an echo chamber between past and present. One sly touch is the way a lively character from 1889 is parlayed into a place-name that the present-day locals take entirely for granted. Gertie the hooker, for instance, becomes “Gertie’s,” a favorite Port Bonita watering hole in 2006. While Evison’s natural descriptions can be marvelous, his character portrayal is too often superficial.

Kissing: no t love so much as hormones “The Science of Kissing: What Our Lips Are Telling Us” by Sheril Kirshenbaum (Grand Central, 272 pgs., $19.99)
By Jessica Gelt Los Angeles Times
It’s late at night and you’re finishing a truly golden date. You drank Manhattans and discovered that you both geek out about B-horror films and the collected works of Philip K. Dick. To top it off, you can’t stop staring into each other’s eyes. When you finally lean in for a kiss, you feel a shock of gooey warmth and your heart pumps molasses. The moment is terribly romantic. Too bad the same can’t be said of the kiss itself. In her new book, “The Science of Kissing,” Sheril Kirshenbaum dissects the kiss with a scalpel, peeling back its glamorized skin to reveal its sociopathic nature. And we learn, that despite its exalted status as one of the world’s most passionate activities, the kiss has evolved for a single blind purpose: to get you into bed so you can propagate the species.

“The Traveller’s Tree: A Journey Through the Caribbean Islands” by Patrick Leigh Fermor (New York Review Books, 404 pgs., $19.95 paper)
Patrick Leigh Fermor, fellow traveler and friend of Bruce Chatwin, began his travels with a walk across Europe in 1933, when he was just 19. Years later, that journey was memorialized in “A Time of Gifts” and “Between the Woods and the Water.” Both have become backpackers’ bibles, poetic inspiration for those on foot. “The Traveller’s Tree,” published in 1950, records a different journey, beginning in 1947, through the Caribbean. The islands had not yet exploded into wholesale tourist stops. Fermor poked his nose in the Rastafari community in Jamaica, voodoo in Haiti, the legacies

This memoir is less controversial, more inspirational than Amy Chua’s fiery book on Chinese parenting. Singapore-raised and American college-educated, Cheryl Lu-Lien Tan rushed down the career path, her father’s voice in her head, before pulling up short with a longing for her past. Living on bagels, ramen and hamburgers, Tan realized she had become a food exile. Memories of the Teochew (a Chinese ethnic group in Singapore) recipes her aunties and grandmother made (lotus-seedfilled mooncakes, duck every which way, spring roll-like popiah rolls, bird’s nest soup) crowded her days in New York City, where she had lived for 17 years. Tan spent a year collecting the fusion recipes — the blend of Chinese, Indian and Malaysian — that make up the comfort food of Singapore. Tan’s tiger qualities reveal themselves in her fierce determination to draw her past into her present, to slow down, to learn how to make the food of her childhood.

Bruce Chatwin was the King of Wanderlust. Born in 1940 in England, he was stricken with two addictions: the need to travel and the need to write. These letters, from his first week at boarding school in 1948 to his death from AIDS-related illness in 1989, map a too-short life, fully lived. Benin, Tierra del Fuego, Nepal, Sardinia, Afghanistan, Mauritania. “I know well what I am fleeing from,” he wrote, quoting Montaigne, “but not what I am looking for.” Chatwin’s books (“In Patagonia,” “Anatomy of Restlessness”) employed so many forms: fiction, essay, reportage, autobiography, ethnology and pure gossip. Accounts of inaccuracy tarnished but did not swamp his reputation. He worked for Sotheby’s before becoming a journalist at the Sunday Times. He was famous for sudden takeoffs. One day, he sent a telegram to his editor: “Gone to Patagonia for six months.” A traveler’s letters are often the most vivid account of his journeys: unpolished, revealing his state of mind. San Francisco, he wrote his wife, Elizabeth, “doesn’t really bear thinking about. It’s utterly light-weight and sugary”; Nepal is a place of “unalloyed happiness ... where I never for a second felt mildly annoyed.” Chatwin, who spoke five languages, counted among his friends Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, Robert Map-

Did you know that the Bela Lugosi “Dracula” is the only film of its kind directed by a real vampire? Or that there’s a bootleg copy of “Kind of Blue” that Miles Davis called “Kind of Red”? (You have to be a vampire to get a copy.) No? Then you obviously haven’t read “The Radleys,” a mistake you should rectify immediately. Matt Haig’s novel is not only head and shoulders above “Twilight” and all those other wimpy vampire romances, but, as an explorer of contemporary mores, Haig is more enjoyable company than writers with more “literary” pedigrees. The British Radleys, in fact, aren’t that different from Jonathan Franzen’s American families. Love and passion have gone out of Peter and Helen’s marriage. The two teenage kids are a mess. Rowan is teased mercilessly by the school bullies. Clara is kind of a Lisa Simpson, too smart and unglamorous to fit in. Both also wonder why they’re so pasty and sickly until Clara bites into the hand of a would-be rapist and discovers she has quite the taste for blood, forcing her parents to tell them they’re really vampires. “That’s a ... metaphor?”

Haig understands what drives both Will and Peter, and the suspense comes in wondering whom the children are going to side with. How ya gonna keep ’em down in the vegan suburbs when they’ve tasted real blood? On the minus side, “The Radleys” doesn’t have much of a sense of place — it takes lines like this to remind you that we’re in England: “We’re middle class and we’re British. Repression is in our veins.” Ah, but the lust that dare not speak its name will eventually be heard. As Lugosi said, “Children of the night. What beautiful music they make.” He could have been talking about “The Radleys.”

Unlike Chatwin, Fermor rarely forgets his post as the reader’s eyes and ears. There’s a thoroughness, an intention to get it right. “What’s your job?” an old colonialist in Jamaica asks. “I had to think hard before answering, ‘I’m a writer.’”

Rowan asks, hopefully. Lines like that make “The Radleys” ready for prime time — BBC Films and Alfonso Cuaron hold the film rights — but Haig is more than a good screenwriter. The dialectic he sets up between “instinct” and “civilization” is as smart as it is funny. Exploring civilization and its discontents is hardly new, but it’s as pertinent to our world as it was to Freud’s. Besides, Haig has so much fun with the issue, who’s keeping score? The Radley parents swear by a volume called “The Abstainer’s Handbook,” which teaches them how to be good assimilationists — get rid of that Miles Davis record and substitute Sting or Phil Collins. Goodbye “Wuthering Heights,” hello “When the Last Sparrow Sings.” And there’s certainly no place in the house for vampire porn like “Vein Man,” (which, like “Sparrow,” is fictitious). Helen, meanwhile, feels like Anna Karenina or Madame Bovary, particularly since she’s had to repress her hots for Peter’s brother, Will, who, unbeknownst to him, is the one who turned her into a vampire. No assimilationist, he — “Sympathy for the Devil” is his ringtone, and he’s never settled for anything less than human blood.

When Kirshenbaum embraces the titillating subject matter with an earthy Henry Miller sense of sexual joie de vivre, “The Science of Kissing” shows flashes of greatness, but all too often she veers back into family friendly territory. And sadly, for such wet subject matter, the book reads a bit dry. Still, if you’ve ever wondered why you can’t stop obsessing over a person after you first fall hard (it’s the dopamine); or why certain couples manage to maintain stable, loving relationships for decades (thank you, oxytocin); or if you’ve worried about catching a lover’s cold (humans are arguably “99 percent bacteria”) you’re sure to glean some remarkable and enlightening factoids from this book. And don’t worry — your newfound knowledge won’t ruin the joy of kissing if you don’t let it. Just close your eyes, open your mouth and try not to think about your date’s genes. The kiss will do that for you.
‘Radleys’: vampires related by blood
NE
Throughout the book, Kirshenbaum asserts that the best science experiment is the kind that defies your expectations. And so it is with the kiss itself. To best illustrate this point the book is divided into three parts. The first explores the origin of kissing, the second digs into how it affects you physiologically, and the third finds the writer in an NYU laboratory trying to make new discoveries about kissing. Kirshenbaum is a research scientist at the University of Texas at Austin. Her writing is best when she’s discussing the empirical. So although the information in part one about the kissing, sniffing and licking practices of our ancestors is interesting, it falls flat compared with part two.
It’s when Kirshenbaum slogs through saliva, looking for clues to human attraction in tastes, hormones and smells, that she gets to third base. In a particularly fascinating passage, she describes how humans smell each other in intimate proximity in part to detect a group of genes called the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). MHC genes basically control the effectiveness of our immune systems. The more diverse our MHC is, the more likely our offspring are to have healthy immune systems. In 1995 a researcher named Claus Wedekind conducted an experiment that became known as the “sweaty T-shirt experiment.” By getting 44 men to wear Tshirts without deodorant for two nights and then having women sniff them, Wedekind discovered that “women nearly always preferred the scents of T-shirts worn by men with MHC genes different from their own — suggesting that we can determine our genetic compatibility with potential partners simply by following our noses.” There is one curious exception to our attraction to different immune systems: Women on the birth control pill tend to
favor men whose MHC closely resembles their own. The science on why this occurs is sketchy but there’s likely a fitting parable about why it’s wise to not mess around too much with nature. After all, nature has evolved the kiss over millions of years so that humans can collect an overwhelming amount of complicated information that helps them determine the suitability of a mate to procreate with. We even taste each other’s hormones. Men’s saliva, for example is loaded with testosterone, which raises a woman’s libido, “priming her for sex.” That’s why researchers have found that men favor deep, sloppy kisses more than women do. Touching tongues “is a way to legally slip her a natural sex stimulant,” writes Kirshenbaum in one of her wittier passages.

Stuntman Needham Exploring the failures of the spins a smashing tale Andrew Johnson presidency “Stuntman! My Car-Crashing, Plane-Jumping, Bone-Breaking, Death-Defying Hollywood Life” by Hal Needham (Little, Brown, 312 pgs., $25.99)
By Chris Foran Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
If there’s anyone who earned his exclamation point, it’s Hal Needham. Just ask him — he’ll tell you so himself. As a young Hollywood stuntman, he taught John Wayne how to throw a punch — and got the big fella to like it. Those outtakes at the end of so many movies since the 1970s? Needham invented them (for “Smokey and the Bandit,” his directorial debut). And he revolutionized NASCAR, helping it grow from a regional sport to a national pastime. Needham’s got a million of ’em in his new autobiography “Stuntman!” But Needham’s way of telling them is so disarming and, in its way, charming that it’s like sitting in a hotel bar with a guy you haven’t seen in a while, with him buying another round of whatever you’re drinking and spinning one great story after another. And spin them Needham does. In “Stuntman!” he tosses down tales of mayhem, close calls and victory-from-the-jaws-of-defeat success like so many beer nuts. If one story drags — and a number of them do — the next one is likely to make you laugh or at least shake your head in bemusement. Needham grew up a sharecropper’s son in Arkansas, and
learned pretty quickly that he wanted to do something else. After discovering he had a talent for pushing himself just past the edge — in the 82nd Airborne in the 1950s, he volunteered to test parachutes — he wound up in Los Angeles and wangled a job as a stuntman. One gig led to another, and soon he was one of Hollywood’s busiest stunt doubles. He transformed the stunt world by making it more professional, by taking bigger and bigger risks — and by making the stunts the star of the show. (By the 1970s, Needham even had his own toy action figure.) Deciding to become a director, he teamed up with Burt Reynolds, a pal for whom he’d been doubling for years, to make a slew of stunt-and-’splosion action comedies, starting with “Smokey and the Bandit” and
running through “The Cannonball Run II.” Critics hated them, but audiences didn’t; the movies Needham made with Reynolds grossed more than $300 million from 1977 to 1984, when $300 million was actually real money. As the 1980s wore on, Needham got more interested in racing cars than in smashing them up, and formed his own NASCAR team. His savvy use of marketing — along with new technology to improve the cars’ performance — changed the racing world. If you’re looking for a chronologically coherent narrative, “Stuntman!” ain’t it. Needham dips back and forth, sometimes to relate a recurring theme, other times because the stars in his stories — Reynolds, Richard Boone, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jackie Gleason and more — factor into other stories. It’s the story of a life as a party, but this party has its share of dark twists. His regaling of the time in 1968 when he and a movie crew got stuck in Prague when the Soviet army reinvaded the country has the makings of a movie itself. Still, for all the booze-belting and death-defying, Needham’s hard-to-be-humble storytelling style masks a collection of sound career-strategy advice, centered on working hard, making connections and standing by your principles. In that way, “Stuntman!” reads a little like Ben Franklin’s autobiography — only with a few more car crashes.
Helen Simonson puts a modern spin on the English village novel By Jane Henderson St. Louis Post-Dispatch
ST. LOUIS — Despite feeling like a publishing Cinderella, Helen Simonson isn’t so young. Nor does she pine for princes and glass slippers. “I wanted to show that love isn’t the purview of the 18-30 demographic,” she says, subtle English accent detectable after two decades in the United States. Last year, Simonson’s first novel came out to warm reviews and sales. “Major Pettigrew’s Last Stand,” a wry yet compassionate 21st-century take on the English village novel, hit best-seller lists and was optioned for a movie. It’s now in paperback release. “I feel as if I have won the literary lottery,” she says. A stay-at-home mother of two teenagers in Bethesda, Md., she talked by phone about her years of writing to create a hero with proper traditional British values and manners — who yet displays a mild subversity as he falls in love with a woman of Pakistani descent. Simonson, who grew up in Rye in southeastern England, revisits the “stereotypical English village” and “letting everybody know that it’s still there, but at the same time, it’s never really there. ... Everybody is as much an individual as anywhere else in the world.” At the London School of Economics, she met her American husband to be, now a banker. They lived for 17 years in Brooklyn, N.Y., part of an early influx of gentrifying yuppies, and only recently moved to Maryland.
Sense of freedom Simonson has been writing for about 12 years and laughs, saying struggling authors can benefit by marrying bankers: “I’m not a starving artist at 20. ... I feel a sense of freedom that comes from being the age I am.” That age is 47, somewhat in the middle of the three sets of lovers in “Major Pettigrew.” Two couples are young, but the book centers on the Major: a widower at 68 who demands “real” loose
“British readers are tougher on me. There is not the glow of England, the wonderful love for England that American audiences can have.” — Helen Simonson, author
tea over soggy bags and cherishes his fine Churchill hunting rifle. The rifle is part of a pair, its mate held by the Major’s brother. The weapons actually function as another set of characters, with their own history and troubles: Pettigrew wants them united, while relatives prefer he sell the valuable heirlooms to an American collector. The Major (he prefers that people address him properly) becomes friends with a 58-year-old widow, Mrs. Ali, who runs a village shop. Asked whether such a couple really raises eyebrows in the 21st century, Simonson says “it continues to be an issue in Great Britain. We don’t have the same story of the melting pot that you have in the U.S.” Even though Mrs. Ali was born in Cambridge, she represents native Brits who do “not necessarily feel welcome in their own home and yet know no other home.” The Major’s interest in Mrs. Ali, though, doesn’t stop him from having mixed feelings about his son’s girlfriend from America, a country “where history was either preserved in theme parks by employees wearing mob caps and long skirts over their sneakers, or was torn down — taken apart for the wide-plank lumber.” Simonson says Americans are actually her big fans: “British readers are tougher on me. There is not the glow of England, the wonderful love for England that American audiences can have.” But Britain still has genuine Majors. At the Rye Literary Festi-
val, at least 40 audience members could have auditioned for the “Pettigrew” movie, she says. In addition to poking stereotypes about love, the Major is allowed some disappointment with his ambitious grown son. “I wanted to show what impact it has on parents when their children march out into the world and the parents are merely secondary players in the movie of their children’s lives,” she says. Simonson recalls a humorous story about her son, who defended her at school when a teacher asked whether “Hamlet’s” Polonius was an “old fool.” “My son spoke up and said: ‘Well, not all old people are fools. I taught my mother to text.’ So we have to put up with our children thinking we’re dinosaurs from about age 10.” Her readers aren’t just older women, though. “People have told me their 18year-old daughter gave them the book” and that husbands and wives share it, she said.
“Andrew Johnson: The American Presidents Series / The 17th President, 1865-1869” by Annette Gordon-Reed (Times Books, 192 pgs. $23)
By Dana Vogel The Philadelphia Inquirer
The issue of race relations has been a fixture in the life of Annette Gordon-Reed for as long as she can remember. “When you grow up in the South, the issue of race is permanent,” said Gordon-Reed, who was raised in Texas during the peak of the civil-rights movement and went on to become a leading historian of
Risk Continued from F1 We’re more afraid of some risks than the evidence indicates we need to be, and vice versa. Some people are excessively worried about vaccines, or fluoride (as a carcinogen), or radiation from nuclear power, but they aren’t worried enough about the measles or whooping cough the vaccines prevent, or the tooth decay the fluoride staves off, or the tens of thousands of people killed every year from particulate pollution because we get more of our electricity from burning coal and oil than from splitting atoms. And America has many more laws, and spends far more on research, as part of the war on cancer than it devotes to the fight against heart disease, which kills 50,000 more of us per year. These perception gaps are risky in and of themselves. You may choose to decline vaccination or fluoridation, or be more afraid of nuclear power than fossil fuel power. Your feelings about the risks might not match the facts, and your personal perception gap might cause you harm, but unless your perceptions and actions
slavery in the United States. Gordon-Reed’s personal awareness of the nation’s history of racial tension, combined with her interest in the birth of the United States, has found its way into her career as a writer and as a professor of law and history. Two of her books have dealt with the African-American Hemings family, who were both slaves and blood relations of Thomas Jefferson. GordonReed won the 2009 Pulitzer Prize in History for her 2008 book, “The Hemingses of Monticello: An American Family.” Gordon-Reed’s latest book touches on issues of race as she
examines President Andrew Johnson’s role in putting the nation back together after the Civil War. Gordon-Reed aims to show how ill-suited Johnson was both to succeed Abraham Lincoln, one of America’s greatest presidents, and to heal a nation that the Civil War had torn apart. She argues that by attempting to reconcile with Southern whites, Johnson abandoned millions of newly freed slaves and lost the trust of congressional leaders. “Johnson is considered one of the worst presidents,” GordonReed said. “The interesting thing is that he was a talented man.”
hurt society, they’re your business alone. But when we all fear similar risks because they have psychological characteristics that make them scary, and as a community we’re more afraid of smaller risks and less afraid of bigger ones, our individual perception gaps become societal. We push for government policies that protect us more from what we’re afraid of than from what’s more likely to kill us. The EPA recognized this in the late ’80s in a study called “Unfinished Business: A Comparative Assessment of Environmental Problems.” It found that the agency was spending too much to reduce some relatively small risks — hazardous-waste sites, underground fuel tanks and garbage dumps, all then hot topics — and not enough on some bigger ones, such as radon, global warming and chemicals dumped into rivers and coastal waters. “EPA’s priorities appear more closely aligned with public opinion than with our estimated risks,” the report said. This is just what the EPA’s cancer premium proposal would enshrine as policy. It would give an advantage to regulations to control carcinogenic chemicals in the air, for instance, and disadvantage
rules to control particulate air pollution, which contributes to the far more common cardiovascular deaths. As unpleasant as it may seem to argue against the cancer premium, it could increase the overall environmental death toll. So how is government supposed to deal with the risk of risk perception? We need to recognize that, just as there are physical risks that we study and try to manage, there are very real risks from the perception gap that also must be studied and accounted for in policymaking. Getting risk wrong is risky. We use tools such as toxicology and epidemiology and economics to analyze how to deal with those physical threats. We should also use neuroscience and psychology and sociology and economics to recognize the dangers posed by our misperceptions and to analyze those threats the same way we analyze and manage any others. That can help us handle the gap between the facts and our feelings about the facts. David Ropeik is an instructor in the Harvard Extension Program, a consultant on risk perception and risk management, and author of “How Risky Is It, Really? Why Our Fears Don’t Always Go with The Facts.”

‘Old-fashioned’ Simonson’s humorous look at social manners bears some resemblance to books by Alexander McCall Smith, who reviewed her novel in The New York Times. Smith said: “An attempt to modernize the village novel could well be embarrassing rather than amusing. But Simonson pulls it off, making ‘Major Pettigrew’s Last Stand’ an entertaining and even rather moving novel of goings-on in a thin, gimcrack England that is, alas, only too recognizable.” Simonson wanted to write an “old-fashioned novel with a good central character.” But she quibbles with people who call the Major “old-fashioned.” That character’s decency and efforts to do the right thing shouldn’t be viewed as old-fashioned: “The world is in need of those qualities now. If we continue to view them as old-fashioned, we’ll have no one to blame but ourselves when the world goes to pieces.”

When less costs more
Bachelor’s plans will provide lift
By Barry Shlachter McClatchy-Tribune News Service
C
entral Oregon’s main winter tourism attraction took a step toward becoming even more attractive — to visitors and locals alike — with word Feb. 9 that the U.S. Forest Service has accepted Mt. Bachelor’s master development plan. That doesn’t mean projects in the plan — including a new east-side chairlift and runs, mountain bike trails, new and expanded Sunrise Lodge and more — have been approved. The 10-year plan is considered a proposal, elements of which face extensive federal environmental review and public comment before final approval. Bachelor’s highest priority among the proposed projects is a new high-speed quad chairlift and new runs east of the Rainbow lift, said Dave Rathbun, president and general manager. Because of the environmental reviews, which will begin this spring and last two years, the earliest a new lift and runs could be in place would be summer 2013 for the 2013-14 ski season. “Right now, I would love to think that that would be possible,” Rathbun said of opening the new lift by Christmas 2013. Adding the lift would benefit locals and visitors by opening more lower intermediate and intermediate terrain in the Sunrise Lodge area, the popularity of which among families and people learning to ski is evident on weekends, when children’s lessons are in full swing. “We’ve got this great ... little pod of lifts and trails that is absolutely perfect for developing skiers and snowboarders,” Rathbun said. “We’ve been focused on that” area, a family-oriented part of the business Bachelor’s been working hard to try to grow. Beyond locals, it’s also attractive to vacationers with families. That popularity cries for expansion to spread out traffic and improve the draw even more. The area’s also appealing on storm days. More protected than the west side, it has better weather, Rathbun said. It would offer another high-speed quad on days when storms might halt the Summit, Outback and Northwest lifts. On those days, the only quads are Sunrise Express, Pine Marten, Skyliner Express and Sunshine Accelerator, so another quad would provide more uphill capacity. “If we had the lift in on a day like today,” Rathbun said Tuesday, when Bend and the mountain were hammered by heavy snow. “Everybody would be loving that terrain,” even experts. Bachelor believes that side of the mountain gives it the best chance to evolve the resort’s overall experience. Other projects Bachelor wants to do early include a new tubing hill and 17 kilometers of mountain bike trails off the Pine Marten lift for summertime recreation. The first bike trail could open in summer 2014. The new tubing hill ideally would be ready for the 2013-14 season. Before any work begins, projects must undergo environmental analysis prescribed by the National Environmental Policy Act, Bachelor noted in a news release Feb. 9. That includes studying possible impacts on northern spotted owl habitat. The last two times the owl was studied for Bachelor’s alpine projects, no owls were found, Rathbun said. The Forest Service also will survey for rare plant species that may include fungi, mosses, liverworts, lichens and vascular plants, said Charmane Powers, botanist with the Bend-Fort Rock Ranger District, in an e-mail. “Some of these species (e.g., the fungi) are associated with old-growth habitats, such as the mature mountain hemlock forests that occur on Mt. Bachelor.” The agency hasn’t determined specific species it will survey. Up to this point, Bachelor’s plan has unfolded smoothly, said Amy Tinderholt, recreation, special uses and wilderness team leader with the ranger district. She credited Bachelor with a lot of upfront legwork over the past 2½ years reviewing its proposal with interested stakeholders. She acknowledged a 2013 project start isn’t out of the question, assuming no environmental issues turn up. “Bachelor’s a great partner and we want them to be successful and get started as soon as possible,” Tinderholt said. The better Bachelor can make its experience, the better for all of us, both as mountain users and as an economy that benefits from the business it generates.

end’s retail vacancy rate fell for nearly the sixth straight quarter at the end of 2010, while office and industrial rates rose slightly over the previous year, according to a quarterly market survey. Compass Commercial Real Estate Services’ survey, Points, showed the city’s overall retail vacancy rate at 9.7 percent for the quarter that ended Dec. 31. The rate has steadily declined since the third quarter of 2009, except for two quarters last year when it remained unchanged. The rate for the fourth quarter also hit the lowest level since at least the third quarter of 2008, according to the surveys.
The commercial market overall has become quite active for Compass since Dec. 1, said Gardner Williams, past president and partner. “We feel 2011 is going to turn around dramatically,” he said. Contributing to the activity: a deal involving northeast Bend industrial property listed for $7.1 million and housing several marquee companies, IdaTech, Entre Prises climbing walls and U.S. Allegiance, a licensed merchandise producer. All have leases, which provide steady income and would be attractive to a buyer, Williams said. Known as the Empire East Business Park, the three tax lots on Northeast 18th Street near Empire Avenue went through foreclosure and hit the market about four or five months ago, he said. A cash deal is in escrow. “We’re starting to see pretty big money taking advantage of some pretty good deals,” Williams said. Retail leasing began jumping after the holidays, according to the “Q4 2010” survey, mostly in smaller spaces. But larger national retailers have started to show an interest, according to the survey, although none was named. See Commercial / G3

Home Depot, too, and Sears, Pier 1 or any of those websites with “area rug” in the name, like arearugs.com. You could imagine a dozen contenders for each of these searches.

FORT WORTH, Texas — Shoppers might not be handing over more money at the supermarket checkout, but their bags of groceries probably feel lighter as national brand makers put less product in identical-looking packaging. And major food retailers including Kroger, Safeway Tom Thumb and Albertsons acknowledge downsizing their private-label items in tandem with the big brands. “There seem to be fewer chips in the bag and more air,” said April Shelton, 24, a student at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth. Olivia Camarena, of Mansfield, Texas, said, “I’ve switched the brand of paper napkins when the number went down.” Dot Howell, of Benbrook, Texas, said: “Coffee keeps going down in size, and my three-ply toilet paper is smaller than it was last time,” she said outside a Fort Worth supermarket. “It makes me mad.

Shazam music spotters stock up on latest indie tracks, create jobs By Jenna Wortham New York Times News Service
SAN FRANCISCO — Sure, Shazam, the popular music-spotting cell phone application, can identify that Rihanna track. But what about the new song from the Sandwitches, a Bay Area folk-rock band? That is where Charles Slomovitz comes in. Slomovitz was roaming the aisles of a record store here recently when he spotted a flamehaired clerk. It was Grace Cooper, one-third of the Sandwitches, which had just put out a single that was getting attention on music blogs. “She’s got that sound that’s getting to be big,” he said as she handed him a copy of the song, “so I’ve got to have it.” Slomovitz, a music industry veteran, spends his days tracking down hot new artists — but not for a big record label. Instead, he works for Shazam, maker of the application of the same name that can figure out what song is playing in a bar, a clothing boutique or a TV commercial. “It’s like a scavenger hunt in real time,” said Slomovitz, 42. “It never stops.” See Shazam / G3

Buffalo ranchers establish foothold on dinner tables

DENVER — The nation’s buffalo ranchers have no catchy marketing slogan about what’s for dinner, and no big trade association budget to pay for making one up. What they have these days are people like Joe and Matt Gould, an ambitious father-and-son team from western Kansas who branched out after 100 years of traditional cattle ranching by their family, and bought their first buffalo herd last year. The Goulds, with 40 animals as a start, made their first delivery of buffalo meat, also known as bison, to friends here in Denver last week. They are opening a themed restaurant on the Kansas-Colorado border supplied by the ranch, and planning bison hunts for tourist-visitors. “People want the high omega3s,” which are healthy fats, said Joe Gould, 61, as he scribbled notes at a mentoring session for buffalo-ranching newcomers at the National Bison Association’s winter conference at a hotel here last month. With prices and American consumption of buffalo at alltime highs — though still minuscule in volume compared with beef, chicken or pork — a new chapter is clearly beginning for one of the oldest animal-human relationships on the continent, dating back millennia before the first Europeans arrived. New ranchers are coming in. Older ranchers are straining to build up herds, holding back breeding females from slaughter and thus compounding what retailers say is already a supply crunch. Buffalo meat prices, meanwhile, have soared — up about 28 percent last year for an average rib-eye steak cut, according to the federal Department of Agriculture. At Tony’s Market here in Denver, that surge is even steeper, up 25 percent just last week for a New York strip buffalo steak, to $24.98 a pound, $10 more per pound than premium beef for the same cut. What happened, producers and retailers say, is that the buffalo, the great ruminant of the Plains — once endangered, now raised on ranches by the tens of thousands — has thundered into an era of growing buyer concern about where food comes from, what an animal dined on and how it all affects the planet.
Foodie boost Trendsetting consumers and restaurants on the East and West Coasts caught on. Grass-fed, sustainable and locally grown, obscure concepts to most people 15 years ago or so when the buffalo meat market first emerged, became buzzwords of the foodie culture. Nutritional bean counters, obsessing over lipid fats and omegas, found in buffalo a meat they could love. “For the last two years, it’s been one of the fastest-growing categories in our meat department,” said Theo Weening, the global meat coordinator for Whole Foods Market, one of the nation’s largest retailers of buffalo at its chain of stores. Weening said buffalo benefited from a kind of synergy: Customers started embracing the idea of grass-fed beef, and from there it was a short leap to bison. “Both categories went hand in hand,” he said. But this new moment, buffalo ranchers and retailers say, is also loaded with risk that growth could come too fast or prices could surge so much that buyers or retailers back away. It is also spiced with a debate about what people really want. Many of the new ranchers, like the Goulds, say the future of buffalo can be summed up by one

at the association’s conference, where straight-leg jeans and boots was the uniform du jour. “People are moving forward from here in different ways, and we’ll let our customers tell us the answer.” Weening at Whole Foods said his company was trying a third way, of sorts. It is in discussions with its three suppliers to end feed-lot finishing for buffalo — still feeding the animals a partly grain-based diet to build up a little fat in the final months of life, but doing so in a pasture setting instead of in confined lots.
Cattle versus buffalo But with all the hand-wringing and hope about the future, the fact remains that buffalo is still barely a footnote. The average American ate about 65 pounds of beef last year but not even a Quarter Pounder’s worth of bison, according to the Bison Association. The numbers of animals in the food chain reflect that disparity — about 70,000 buffalo slaughtered for their meat last year, according to the association, compared with more than 125,000 cattle every day. But for newcomers like the Goulds, Lesson 1 is that buffalo are not anything like cattle. While cattle can be easily herded along, their wild genes muted by generations on a treadmill to the slaughterhouse, buffalo might decide to turn and charge. When they do, they can outrun a track star, up to 30 miles per hour. And while a cattle herd will usually respect a fence, a buffalo herd will not. “We’ve figured out some things already, mostly by doing them incorrectly,” said Matt Gould, 32. “But it’s a pretty steep learning curve.”

term: grass-fed. Feeding animals only on grass, with no grain in their diet at all, is more natural for the animal and produces the kind of low-fat, environmentally sustainable product that they say best competes with beef for a place on the nation’s dinner table. Many veteran ranchers, though, say that what consumers and retailers really want is consistency — one cut of buffalo tasting about the same as the next in both flavor and texture. And only grain-feeding, with some grain — often corn — in the diet in the last months before slaughter, can do that, they say. Crucially, they say, grain-finished buffalo is what most people have probably tasted, bought at Whole Foods or off a restaurant menu. Purely grass-fed buffalo, they say, is more difficult to find and can vary in taste and tenderness from region to region and season to season. However it is raised, buffalo meat has much less fat than beef. “We want no surprises for our customers,” said Russell Miller, the general manager at Turner Enterprises, which owns the chain of buffalo ranches owned by the media mogul and conservationist Ted Turner. Turner Enterprises, by far the nation’s largest buffalo rancher, with more than 50,000 animals, supplies some of the buffalo at Whole Foods, as well as the meat for Turner’s buffalothemed restaurant chain, Ted’s Montana Grill. When it comes to the question of grass-fed versus grain-fed, the answer from David Carter, the executive director of the National Bison Association, is a Buddha-like wisdom of abstention. “I’m not going to say one is better than the other,” he said in an interview between meetings

Jewelry sales sparkle after years of darkness By Sandra M. Jones Chicago Tribune
CHICAGO — Jewelry sales made a big comeback this past holiday season after plummeting during the Great Recession and continued to gain steam for Valentine’s Day, a sign that consumers are feeling better about the economy. Even as consumers return to the jewelry stores, they’re looking for a good deal, whether they’re shopping at J.C. Penney or Harry Winston. “There is a mentality of value, even in the luxury jewelry market,” said Andrea Morante, CEO of Pomellato, an Italian luxury jewelry firm that counts Oprah Winfrey as a customer. “If a client is looking at a $70,000 ring, they want to know how many hours it took to produce. It’s a healthy trend for consumers to ask about value.” U.S. jewelry sales rose 7.7 percent, to a record $63.4 billion, in 2010, according to a new report from the Jewelers Board of Trade, based on Commerce Department data. The uptick follows two consecutive years of declines, dropping 2.7 percent in 2009 and 2.4 percent in 2008, as Americans cut back on discretionary spending. With the price of gold up 30 percent last year and trading at more than $1,300 an ounce, jewelers have taken pains to come up with creative designs aimed at keeping price tags down, as husbands and boyfriends are finding their way back to the jewelry counters. One overarching strategy that is working so far: Designers are fashioning smaller, lighterweight pieces that require less solid gold, relying on twists, lace designs and cutouts. Jewelry merchants, among
Shazam Continued from G1 Slomovitz’s job is one of the more unusual in the new digital music era, as he and the dozen or so other “music sourcers” at Shazam try to ensure that any songs the app’s users might want to identify are ready and waiting in the company’s database. As the major record labels shrink, Shazam and other startups are thriving by offering people new ways to discover and listen to music. That is creating new kinds of jobs in the music business, from foragers like Slomovitz to the developers building software that recommends the perfect song for a particular listener. “We used to have DJ’s, record store clerks and A&R types” — the music industry’s talent scouts — to help discover music, said Paul Lamere, director of the developer community at Echo Nest, which builds music search services. “But now, because so much music is available, the challenge is surfacing relevant music to listeners.” He added: “We’re living in a world where technologists and programmers are becoming the new gatekeepers for new music.” If the programmers are going to create a useful music site or service, they need data, and in some cases, that involves hiring humans to gather it. Pandora, the popular music streaming service, has so-called musicologists, who analyze songs based on a long list of characteristics, like the complexity of the rhythm or whether it sounds Hawaiian. At Shazam, the music sourcers’ challenge goes beyond just getting a copy of the latest single from Kanye West. Shazam also wants the latest club tracks, Internet mix tapes and whatever is playing on college radio, anything that might inspire curious listeners to pull out their phones and fire up the app. “When people use a service like Shazam, they expect it to work all the time,” said Andrew Fisher, Shazam’s chief executive. At stake, Fisher said, is the loyalty of the service’s audience, whose members use it 3 million times a day. If Shazam cannot recognize a song, a user may simply turn to another app that can. Shazam, which says it has 100 million users, has the biggest share of the market for applications that identify music. But competitors, most notably SoundHound, have moved into similar territory SoundHound has been adding features that Shazam has yet to match, including allowing people to identify a song by humming a few bars of it into their phones. Shazam’s music sourcers feed songs into the company’s

And customers are snapping up stacking rings and necklace charms that can be purchased one at a time over several months or years. Even the traditional single-diamond engagement ring is giving way to more affordable designs. A halo setting, typically a small center diamond surrounded by smaller diamonds or colored stones, is becoming more popular with brides-to-be as the setting gives the illusion of a big ring without the price, said Amanda Gizzi, spokeswoman for the Jewelers of America. “People are being smarter with their investments and are looking for items with lasting value,” Gizzi said.
system so it can give each one a unique “fingerprint” that can be matched with the sound captured by its mobile app. Some of the songs come directly from record labels, which view Shazam as a useful partner. “It’s another avenue through which our musicians can be discovered, which is always a good thing,” said Seth Hubbard, a manager at Polyvinyl Records in San Francisco, which works with Shazam to put its songs into the database even before they are released. But a good portion of the music-gathering requires more work. “If we don’t have a song that is being played in nightclubs because it is only on vinyl that isn’t signed to a label, or was created on a computer,” Fisher said, “hundreds of people could be tagging that song and getting a nil result.” He declined to disclose the service’s failure rate. The hunt keeps Slomovitz on his toes. Every morning, he skims dozens of music blogs, checking for new releases he might have missed, as well as the iTunes, Amazon.com and Billboard charts, and blog aggregators like the Hype Machine. Most weeks he also goes to local record stores to see if there is something in stock he has not heard of, or if older albums are being remastered or reissued. And he listens to local radio stations, especially near universities. “If all the college radio stations are playing something new that’s coming out of a school in Connecticut, that should be in there,” he said. On a recent visit to the Polyvinyl offices, Slomovitz got down on his knees to scan a shelf of freshly pressed records. He excitedly pulled one out and held it up. “Found it,” he yelped, pushing a hand through his scruffy head of hair. “It’s the new Matt Pond PA. Their song ‘Snow Day’ is going to be featured in a Starbucks commercial, so we’ve got to have that.” New music has infiltrated many popular television shows, like “Gossip Girl” and children’s shows like “Yo Gabba Gabba!” Slomovitz says he pays close attention to which bands and songs are playing on those shows and a handful of others. When he finds a song he wants to add to the database, he contacts the artist or label to get a copy of the track. Shazam executives say their mission is to catalog every song in the world. But it would be impossible to feed the machine with each and every song released by a tiny label or a bedroom studio. Instead, Slomovitz has to try to think like a music tastemaker, guessing which songs might get attention and potentially stump Shazam’s servers.
Like many consumers, Scott Baron, 33, avoided fine-jewelry purchases during the recession. With a baby on the way and the stock market on the rise, Baron decided this Valentine’s Day was a good time to “do something extra” for his wife. He spent an afternoon at Leber Jeweler Inc. in Chicago selecting a stone that is both meaningful to his wife and a good investment. “It’s not something I do every year,” Baron said. “Typically, we go out to dinner.” He isn’t alone. Shoppers were expected to spend $3.5 billion on jewelry for Valentine’s Day, up 17 percent from $3 billion last year, according to the National Retail Federation, the Washington, D.C.-based retail trade group.

luxury retailers in particular as the wealthy began to shop again. Jewelry firms Bulgari of Italy, Parisian luxury conglomerate LVMH and Switzerland’s Richemont, owner of Cartier, all reported sales gains topping 25 percent in the most recent quarter. And New York-based Tiffany, known for its little blue gift boxes, in January raised its profit forecast for the year, adding it will accelerate store openings in 2011. Business is looking up at the midtier jewelry chains as well. Zale Corp. said sales at stores open at least a year rose 8.5 percent for the combined months of November and December compared with the same period in 2009, when same-store sales dropped 12 percent. Costco Wholesale Corp. said its jewelry sales rose by a percentage “in the teens” in the last few months of 2010. Meanwhile, both J.C. Penney Co. and Sears Holdings Corp. debuted new bridal jewelry collections at their department stores this month in hopes of capturing sales leading up to Valentine’s Day, the second-biggest holiday in the jewelry trade. The expansion comes after a rash of jewelers went out of business during the economic downturn, including Chicago-based Whitehall Jewelers. And Signet Jewelers Ltd., the British company that owns the Kay Jewelers and Jared chains in the U.S., said in a presentation to investors last year that the total number of jewelry specialty stores shrunk by an estimated 12 percent in the U.S. since the start of 2008.
based in London, is available in more than 200 countries, the company has a lot of ground to cover. “We have people in London, Japan, China, Indonesia,” Jones said. Slomovitz and his fellow sourcers are an important part of the company’s strategy. He describes himself as a “freak about music” and has spent most of his career in the music business. He spent several years at Virgin Records, handling promotion and marketing for artists like Lenny Kravitz and the Smashing Pumpkins. But he said years in the daily grind of the industry wore him out. “I found that the higher I got on the food chain, it was less about the music and more about sales numbers,” he said. He was a few years into running a tiny record label when the listing for the Shazam job sailed into his in-box. It was a perfect fit, he said. “I get to do what I love, listen to new music and find new artists,” he said “I get to go to town.”
THE BULLETIN • Sunday, February 20, 2011 G3
Commercial Continued from G1 Of the seven geographic areas that make up Bend’s retail market, the Old Mill District had the highest occupancy levels, followed by downtown, according to the survey. Restaurant turnover has been high, Williams said, but if one closes, another is ready to take over the location. “A fully equipped restaurant is something that’s always in demand,” he said. In Bend’s office market, much of the increased vacancy stems from LifeWise Health Plan of Oregon closing its office on Southwest Bond Street in December. It left 55,000 square feet on the market, according to the survey. It also pushed the vacancy rate to 22.1 percent at year’s end, more than 3 percentage points higher than the third quarter and 1.8 points higher year over year. Of the three geographic areas that make up Bend’s office market, downtown had the lowest vacancy rate, and the U.S. Highway 97/Third Street corridor had the highest. Most tenants negotiated rents between 90 cents and $1.35 a square foot, according to the survey. Compass predicts the vacancy rate to drop this year with rents remaining about the same. Office buildings sold for $85 to $161 a square foot in 2010, according to the survey, with about a half dozen sales. A bank sold one, and private parties sold the rest. Similarly, in the industrial market, six buildings in Bend skewed the vacancy rate, according to the survey. Combined, they total about 242,500 square feet of space, making up 34 percent of the total vacancy. With the buildings, the industrial vacancy rate citywide ended the year at 17.8 percent. Without them, the rate drops to 11.8 percent. For industrial space less than 3,000 square feet, the vacancy rate drops below 10 percent, according to the survey. Compass predicts rental rates for those smaller spots will in-
crease this year, and lease rates appear to reflect the demand. Larger industrial space rents for as low as 20 cents a square foot per month, while smaller locations go for 30 to 40 cents. More than a dozen industrial buildings sold last year, according to the survey, about half of them were bank-owned properties. Business owners buying for their own use represented about 75 percent of the buyers, paying between $40 and $93 per square foot, according to the survey. For some buildings, the prices are nearly 50 percent of what it would cost to build them new, Williams said. In Redmond, the industrial vacancy rate reached 27.1 percent in the fourth quarter, an increase of 1.5 percentage points from the previous quarter, according to the survey. For those with plenty of patience, Williams said, the greatest opportunity can be found in commercial land — at a range of prices. A nearly 37-acre bank-owned parcel just outside the urban growth boundary in southeast Bend can be had for 43 cents a square foot, or $18,534 per acre. Or, a 2.19-acre spot on the roundabout at Reed Market Road near the Athletic Club of Bend is available for $18.08 a square foot, or roughly $787,600 per acre. For a buyer wanting to develop a potential 88-lot subdivision, a 30-acre parcel east of Southeast 27th Street and south of Bear Creek Road is on the market for $1.23 a square foot, $53,459 an acre. It has 2.75 acres within the city, with the rest in the UGB. “(Land) went up further and faster than anything during the boom years,” Williams said. “It came down the same way — like a rocket that ran out of fuel.” Tim Doran can be reached at 541-383-0360 or at tdoran@ bendbulletin.com.

A little less
Continued from G1 They do it because of rising commodity costs and as an alternative to a sudden price spike, said George Haley, a marketing professor and director of the Center for International Industry Competitiveness at the University of New Haven’s College of Business. “They’re taking a few ounces out of a product, putting in fewer potato chips and putting more air in cheese and ice cream,” Haley said. “Usually it’s done because producers don’t want prices hitting the point where they feel consumers would reject the product.” And it’s likely to become even more common. The Agriculture Department says food prices will rise 2 percent to 3 percent in 2011, compared with 0.3 percent last year. “As ingredient cost, raw material or labor costs increase, the food producer can either pass on the cost increase, or they can provide less product per unit sold,” said Susan Fisher, associate professor of foods and nutrition at Meredith College in Raleigh, N.C. “Thus the consumer might have paid $6 a pound for coffee now still pays $6 but for three-quarters of a pound. “The per-ounce price has increased, but that escapes the consumer who sees the unit as a bag of coffee rather than the number of servings per bag,” Fisher said. “Commercial providers and those filling large coffee urns are not as easily duped. Sugar used to be sold in 5-pound bags, but now the consumer pays the same money for 4 pounds. Cereals have also done this for years.” Commodity prices are rising around the world, sometimes because of weather, such as flooding in South Asia, or politics, like the decision by some major chocolate manufacturers to stop buying cocoa from Ivory Coast until a contentious presidential succession is sorted out. London’s Financial Times reported this month that some agricultural commodity prices have hit a 30-year high. “In times when costs — commodities, fuel, transportation costs, etc. — are rising fast and over extended periods, inevitably consumers will eventually see the impact,” said the Grocery Manufacturers Association, an industry group. “Some companies raise the price of their products, some companies choose to slightly reduce the size of their product and keep prices stable. Each company makes its own decisions about how to adjust and accommodate.”
Being deceptive? “Companies often hide their handiwork when they shrink their packages,” said Consumer Reports, which is owned by the nonprofit watchdog Consumers Union. “Indenting the bottom of containers, making plastic wrappers thinner or whipping air into ice cream are a few subtle ways companies downsize their products.” But Consumer Reports “doesn’t have a take on whether or not it’s a deceptive practice, just that it happens,” spokeswoman Linda Zebian said. Haley says the downsizing, repackaging or aerating is kosher as long as the new weight and nutritional labeling conform to
THE BULLETIN • Sunday, February 20, 2011 G5
Some major U.S. brands have begun repackaging to meet higher costs. In its January issue, Consumer Reports magazine found these reductions:
KRAFT AMERICAN CHEESE: 22 slices per packet instead of 24, down 8.3 percent
TROPICANA ORANGE JUICE: 59 ounces per carton instead of 64, down 7.8 percent
CLASSICO PESTO SAUCE: 8.1 ounces per jar instead of 10, down 19 percent
IVORY DISH DETERGENT: 24 ounces per bottle instead of 30, down 20 percent
HEBREW NATIONAL HOT DOGS: 11 ounces per pack instead of 12, down 8.3 percent
FDA regulations. “It would make it unethical if they reduced serving size,” he said. “The reason they maintain the same size packaging is because the size of a package dominates a shopper’s perception,” Haley said. “When they go down a supermarket aisle, it looks the same, and they get the feeling it’s the same amount they’ve bought before.” Representatives for Kroger, Tom Thumb and Albertsons said their house brands can shrink when well-known brands do. “If a national brand changes the size of its packaging, then eventually the store brand will follow suit, which is an industry practice that is not unique to Albertsons,” spokeswoman Christine Wilcox said. “This offers consumers an ‘apples to apples’ comparison of our product’s value versus the national brand.” While Kroger has changed the sizes of its house products to match the national brands’ in some cases, spokesman Gary Huddleston said Kroger’s new house brand paper towel and toilet paper, Home Sense, has a higher count than comparable national brands. Product downsizing is not new, and “there never has been any real serious consumer backlash because everyone does it at about the same time and consumers really have no alternative,” Haley said. Retired teacher Linda Harville, of Fort Worth, says she’s noticed the shrinking size of paper products. But “that’s just the way it is.” Consumer Reports did note one instance when customers complained to Pepperidge Farm about a “new smaller, more expensive” wheat bread. The company brought back a larger loaf — briefly. “It has since been discontinued,” Consumer Reports said.
Continued from G1 The company bested millions of sites — and not just in searches for dresses, bedding and area rugs. For months, it was consistently at or near the top in searches for “skinny jeans,” “home decor,” “comforter sets,” “furniture” and dozens of other words and phrases, from the blandly generic (“tablecloths”) to the strangely specific (“grommet top curtains”). This striking performance lasted for months, most crucially through the holiday season, when there is a huge spike in online shopping. J.C. Penney even beat out the sites of manufacturers in searches for the products of those manufacturers. Type in “Samsonite carry on luggage,” for instance, and Penney for months was first on the list, ahead of Samsonite.com. With more than 1,100 stores and $17.8 billion in total revenue in 2010, Penney is certainly a major player in American retailing. But Google’s stated goal is to sift through every corner of the Internet and find the most important, relevant websites. Does the collective wisdom of the Web really say that Penney has the most essential site when it comes to dresses? And bedding? And area rugs? And dozens of other words and phrases?
Don’t blame Google The New York Times asked an expert in online search, Doug Pierce of Blue Fountain Media in New York, to study this question, as well as Penney’s astoundingly strong search-term performance in recent months. What he found suggests that the digital age’s most mundane act, the Google search, often represents layer upon layer of intrigue. And the intrigue starts in the sprawling, subterranean world of “blackhat” optimization, the dark art of raising the profile of a website with methods that Google considers tantamount to cheating. Despite the cowboy outlaw connotations, black-hat services are not illegal, but trafficking in them risks the wrath of Google. The company draws a pretty thick line between techniques it considers deceptive and “white-hat” approaches, which are offered by hundreds of consulting firms and are legitimate ways to increase a site’s visibility. Penney’s results were derived from methods on the wrong side of that line, says Pierce. He described the optimization as the most ambitious attempt to game Google’s search results that he has ever seen. “Actually, it’s the most ambitious attempt I’ve ever heard of,” he said. “This whole thing just blew me away. Especially for such a major brand. You’d think they would have people around them that would know better.” To understand the strategy that kept J.C. Penney in the pole position for so many searches, you need to know how websites rise to the top of Google’s results. We’re talking, to be clear, about the “organic” results — in other words, the ones that are not paid advertisements. In deriving organic results, Google’s algorithm takes into account dozens of criteria, many of which the

Online search expert Doug Pierce, of Blue Fountain Media, recently looked into J.C. Penney’s strong search-term performance on Google and found that the company’s results were derived from methods of “black hat” search engine optimization. company will not discuss. But it has described one crucial factor in detail: links from one website to another. If you own a website, for instance, about Chinese cooking, your site’s Google ranking will improve as other sites link to it. The more links to your site, especially those from other Chinese cooking-related sites, the higher your ranking. In a way, what Google is measuring is your site’s popularity by polling the best-informed online fans of Chinese cooking and counting their links to your site as votes of approval. But even links that have nothing to do with Chinese cooking can bolster your profile if your site is barnacled with enough of them. And here’s where the strategy that aided Penney comes in. Someone paid to have thousands of links placed on hundreds of sites scattered around the Web, all of which lead directly to JCPenney.com.
Link schemes Who is that someone? A spokeswoman for J.C. Penney, Darcie Brossart, says it was not Penney. “J.C. Penney did not authorize, and we were not involved with or aware of, the posting of the links that you sent to us, as it is against our natural search policies,” Brossart wrote in an e-mail. She added, “We are working to have the links taken down.” The links do not bear any fingerprints, but nothing else about them was particularly subtle. Using an online tool called Open Site Explorer, Pierce found 2,015 pages with phrases like “casual dresses,” “evening dresses,” “little black dress” or “cocktail dress.” Click on any of these phrases on any of these 2,015 pages, and you are bounced directly to the main page for dresses on JCPenney.com. Some of the 2,015 pages are on sites related, at least nominally, to clothing. But most are not. The phrase “black dresses” and a Penney link were tacked to the bottom of a site called nuclear.engineeringaddict.com. “Evening dresses” appeared on a site called casino-focus. com. “Cocktail dresses” showed up on bulgariapropertyportal. com. “Casual dresses” was on a site called elistofbanks.com. “Semi-formal dresses” was pasted, rather incongruously, on usclettermen.org. There are links to JCPenney .com’s dresses page on sites
about diseases, cameras, cars, dogs, aluminum sheets, travel, snoring, diamond drills, bathroom tiles, hotel furniture, online games, commodities, fishing, Adobe Flash, glass shower doors, jokes and dentists — and the list goes on. When you read the enormous list of sites with Penney links, the landscape of the Internet acquires a whole new topography. It starts to seem like a city with a few familiar, well-kept buildings, surrounded by millions of hovels kept upright for no purpose other than the ads that are painted on their walls. Exploiting those hovels for links is a Google no-no. The company’s guidelines warn against using tricks to improve search engine rankings, including what it refers to as “link schemes.” The penalty for getting caught is a pair of virtual concrete shoes: the company sinks in Google’s results. Starting last week, J.C. Penney was the subject of what Google calls “corrective action.” The Times sent Google the evidence it had collected about the links to JCPenney.com. Google promptly set up an interview with Matt Cutts, the head of the webspam team at Google, and a man whose every speech, blog post and Twitter update is parsed like papal encyclicals by players in the search engine world. “I can confirm that this violates our guidelines,” Cutts said during an hourlong interview last week, after looking at a list of paid links to JCPenney.com.
SOLAR & RADIANT HEATING SYSTEMS 541-389-7365 CCB# 18669
“Am I happy this happened?” he later asked. “Absolutely not. Is Google going to take strong corrective action? We absolutely will.” And the company did. On Wednesday evening, Google began what it calls a “manual action” against Penney, essentially demotions specifically aimed at the company. Penney reacted to this instant reversal of fortune by, among other things, firing its search engine consulting firm, SearchDex. Executives there did not return email or phone calls. Brossart, J.C. Penney’s spokeswoman, noted that while the collection of links surely brought in additional revenue, it was hardly a bonanza. Just 7 percent of JCPenney.com’s traffic comes from clicks on organic search results, she wrote. A far bigger source of profits this holiday season, she stated, came from partnerships with companies like Yahoo and Time Warner, from new mobile applications and from in-store kiosks.
A ‘never-ending’ job Why did Google fail to catch a campaign that had been under way for months? One, no less, that benefited a company that Google had already taken action against three times? And one that relied on a collection of websites that were not exactly hiding their spamminess? Cutts emphasized that there are 200 million domain names and a mere 24,000 employees at Google. “Spammers never stop,” he said. Battling those spammers is a never-ending job, and one that he believes Google keeps getting better and better at. Asked if Penney received any breaks because of the money it has spent on ads, Cutts said, “I’ll give a categorical denial.” He then made an impassioned case for Google’s commitment to separating the money side of the business from the search side. The former has zero influence on the latter, he said.

S D Life span of tires varies depending on the car, driver By Brad Bergholdt McClatchy-Tribune News Service
Q:
How long should tires last? I’ve managed to wear mine out in only 32,000 miles and thought they should last a lot longer. Good question! Tire tread life varies greatly depending on the type of tire, operator driving style, road conditions, how well they’re inflated, frequency of wheel rotation, and proper wheel alignment. Sticky high-performance tires don’t last nearly as long as those with a more utilitarian purpose. When comparing new tires for purchase, look for the uniform tire quality grade — a combination of numbers and letters known as UTQG — on the tire’s printed label or sidewall. The higher the number, the longer the tread is supposed to last. In theory, a 400rated tire should last twice as long as a 200-rated tire. Keep in mind that the government allows the tire companies to self-test their tires and there can be some variations in how the test results are derived. What this means is that the UTQC tread wear number is a good shopping tool to compare various tires within one manufacturer’s family of tires, but isn’t as reliable when comparing tires of differing brands. Driving style can make a noticeable difference in tire life. A driver with conservative driving habits — gentle stops and starts, gentle on turns — might see a 10 percent to 30 percent improvement in tire life over another driver who enjoys wringing out the car. Road conditions matter as well. Rough or winding roads or those with countless stoplights are harder on tires than smooth and straight freeways at reasonable speed. Proper inflation is hugely important for safe vehicle handling, braking, wet and dry weather traction, and proper tread wear. An under- or overinflated tire will wear un-

The 2011 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor’s defining characteristic is still its wild suspension, but the larger engine — a 6.2-liter V-8, compared to a 5.4-liter V-8 in the 2010 model — has given the Raptor the muscle to match the rest of its extroverted personality.
Ford Raptor: a Tonka toy for a very big sandbox By Ezra Dyer New York Times News Service
Car companies often build special models around a highperformance engine. BMW’s M cars, Cadillac’s V editions and the Mercedes-Benz AMG line are all defined by some sort of huge upgrade under the hood. Much less often, a manufacturer decides R E V I E W to spend its skunk-works budget modifying a car’s suspension. In recent years, the latter approach gave us vehicles like the Subaru Legacy Spec B. Hey, how about those inverted Bilstein struts on the Subaru Legacy Spec B? The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor joins the lonely Spec B on the list of suspension-first performance vehicles. In creating the Raptor, Ford’s Special Vehicle Team essentially ignored the engine and lavished its efforts on transforming the chassis into a Baja-ready bumpannihilation system. Up front, new aluminum lower A-arms are mounted to gleaming Fox Racing remote-reservoir dampers. With 11.2 inches of travel, the modified front suspension required widely flared fenders to prevent the 35-inch-tall B.F.

2011 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor Base price: $42,525 As tested: $46,780 Type: The Ford F-150 SVT Raptor is a street-legal off-road desert-racer pickup truck. Engine: The truck features a 6.2-liter V-8 engine with 411 horsepower and 434 pound-feet of torque. Mileage: 11 mpg city, 14 mpg highway
stock F-150. The rear suspension also gets the Fox Racing treatment, with 12.1 inches of travel. You’d think that with a foot of travel and the tires’ towering sidewalls, the Raptor would wallow like a swamped container ship. But the damping isn’t linear. The first few inches of travel are soft, smothering small bumps, but the position-sensitive damping firms up as the shocks become fully compressed. It’s surprising how well this desert-bred setup works on the road. If 35-inch tires and remote-reservoir dampers can soak up 65 mph moguls out in the boonies, then urban potholes are of no concern. The Raptor offers a cushy ride and steering that actually gives you a clue about what’s happening down at the road — a rare quality in a pickup truck. But the Raptor is really at home on the high-speed off-road terrain of the West. Out on the dry river beds of Arizona or the
dunes of Glamis, the Raptor is so good at its mission that it imparts a certain feeling of invincibility. Which, for some owners, could be their undoing. A friend in the Army once told me that the guys at his base refer to the Humvee as “God’s SUV” because its immense offroad abilities often lead to a false sense of confidence. Drivers would think their Humvees could practically drive through a lake, until the day they literally tried to drive through a lake — necessitating extrication by a military bulldozer. The Raptor initially came with an overworked 320-horsepower, 5.4-liter V-8. I’ve subsequently driven a 2011 model with the new 6.2-liter V-8 — now the sole engine — and it’s a vast improvement. The Raptor’s wild suspension is still its defining characteristic, but the larger engine gives the truck the muscle to match the rest of its extroverted personal-
Scrutinize warranty before filing complaint By Paul Brand Star Tribune (Minneapolis)
Q:
My daughter shopped for, purchased and financed her first vehicle on her own. It’s a 2000 Nissan Pathfinder. She bought a warranty through the dealer. No complaints, except this rig goes through a quart of oil every 500 miles. The warranty folks don’t want to spend any money because nothing is broken. Is there any way to resolve this short of just letting the engine run out of oil and seize up? I’m not sure they would honor the warranty in that case anyway, and it would be pretty irresponsible. I agree that letting the engine run out of oil and fail
A:
is a bad plan, but I do understand the frustration. You didn’t mention how many miles are on this 10-plus-yearold vehicle nor the specifics of warranty coverage, but the typical industry standard for oil consumption is about 1,000 miles per quart. Most warranty coverage would require a specific oil consumption test to determine the exact level of oil use. If that level exceeded manufacturer’s specifications, warranty coverage for repair would likely apply. Again, I don’t know the specifics of the warranty on this vehicle, so I suggest you have her read the warranty carefully and if necessary ask for legal help

from an attorney or the state attorney general’s office. In the meantime, changing to slightly heavier oil (10W rather than 5W), lowering oil operating temperatures by adding an additional oil cooler or switching to synthetic oil. Trying an oil additive or engine flush may improve oil consumption to an acceptable level.

ity — the Tonka toy sheet metal, the hey-look-at-me exhaust note and the decidedly outrageous interior. On the latter point, thanks to the Raptor, no longer must you buy a custom Ferrari or Lamborghini to get orange leather seats. No longer must you buy a Porsche GT3 RS to get a contrasting centering mark on the steering wheel. And no longer must you buy a box of toggle switches at Radio Shack to get a bunch of useless toggle switches. The Raptor comes with a whole row of them, standard. Ford says they’re for hooking up extra off-road lights, CB radios, fog machines and other accessories that truck guys need. But even as is, connected to nothing, the row of gratuitous switches sends the message that you’re the type of on-thego customer who needs a lot of switches. The Raptor looks like a lifesize radio-control car, it swallows gas and I really want it, even though I live in the Northeast where it would rarely have room to roam. If the Raptor were available with the EcoBoost twin-turbocharged V-6 (which returns 21 mpg on the highway in other F150 4x4s), I’d have a hard time driving past the Ford dealer every day.

evenly, and an underinflated tire is more likely to fail due to overheating. Be sure to use the inflation numbers printed on the door sticker rather than the maximum pressure stamped on the tire’s sidewall. Tire pressure should be checked at least monthly. If you’re likely to be remiss in doing so, a $20 set of tire of tire pressure indicator caps can be easily installed on the valve stems and visually monitored. These are purchased for a particular desired pressure and show a red band should inflation pressure drop more than a few pounds. Periodic tire rotation and proper wheel alignment are also essential for long tire life. Rotating tires at each or every other oil change helps even out wear. Should tires not be rotated, one will typically find the front tires will require premature replacement due to cornering wear on the outer edges. In this case you’d likely renew all four tires, and there would be perhaps 30 percent tread or more remaining that would be wasted. Having a front and, if applicable, rear wheel alignment performed at the time of tire purchase is advisable but not mandatory. Tires need to run very close to true vertical, and even the slightest amount of pigeon toe scrubs off rubber at an alarming rate. If you stay away from curbs and big potholes, wheel alignment should not appreciably change, until high mileage wear allows things to loosen up. Giving the tires a close look just prior to rotation tells a useful story. If a noticeable tread wear irregularity is not seen, comparing each tire to the others, your wheel alignment is probably OK.

From page one, readers know this novel will not end happily —it’s based on Ernest Hemingway’s relationship with Hadley Richardson, the first of his four wives. But before they split, they have a grand time in 1920s Paris. McLain’s vivid account of the couple’s love affair and expat adventures— including absinthe-fueled nights with the likes of F. Scott Fitzgerald—will leave you feeling sad yet dazzled.

Eyes on the Prizes
W
ith the oscars only a week away (Feb. 27 on ABC), here’s a cheat
sheet on which high-profile films are likely to nab the top awards. THE KING’S SPEECH This drama, a true story about triumphing over adveregf sity, earned 12 nods and is poised to reign as Best Picture. Tom Hooper should win Director, and Colin Firth, as stammer-afflicted George VI, is sure to be crowned Best Actor. THE SOCIAL NETWORK The “Facebook movie” was lauded by critics’ groups, but we suspect the Academy will un-friend it in the Best Picture category. It should clinch Adapted Screenplay for Aaron Sorkin. BLACK SWAN Natalie Portman is favored to win Best Actress for playing a paranoid ballerina. Her main competition: oft-nominated vet Annette Bening, for The Kids Are All Right. THE FIGHTER Christian Bale, as boxer Micky Ward’s crack-addicted half-brother, can’t miss for Best Supporting Actor. Supporting Actress Melissa Leo, playing Micky’s mouthy mom, will also score a knockout. TRUE GRIT Unless young Hailee Steinfeld manages an upset for Supporting Actress, forget about major awards. Writer-directors Joel and Ethan Coen probably won’t care—at press time, Grit looked to be on track to overtake Dances with Wolves as the highest-grossing Western ever. —Steve Daly Who do you think should win?

KINGS OF PASTRY $28 Fans of extreme cooking should be mesmerized by this documentary about the three-day Meilleurs Ouvriers
THE LAST LIONS Feb. 18 With its extraordinary cinematography and sonorous narration (by Jeremy Irons), this film aims to put you right into the hearts and
minds of Botswana wildlife. f It plays more like actionadventure than documentary, but the perils faced by the family of lions featured (there may be as few as 20,000 left in the wild) are very real. You’ll be captivated— and may even shed a tear.

7-MINUTE SOLUTION
HOW TO GET YOUNGERLOOKING SKIN Dr. Fredric Brandt, dermatologist of choice for celebs like Madonna, on everything you need to get glowing
MORNING: Two Minutes 1. Wash up. If you have oily skin, use a cleanser with salicylic acid to clean out your pores. If your skin is dry, a creamy cleanser will put moisture back in. Avoid rinsing with very hot water—it will dry you out even more. And skip the washcloth. Unless you use a fresh one every day, it breeds bacteria. 2 . Apply an antioxidant cream or gel. Look for ingredients like soy, green tea, or vitamin C. All are readily available in a number of brands. If you have dark under-eye circles, use an eye cream with caffeine to constrict blood vessels and a peptide to thicken the skin. 3. Use a sunblock with SPF 30 every day, rain or shine. You need at least a teaspoon for your face. Note to men: You can skip Step 2—but don’t skip sunscreen.
NIGHT: Three Minutes 1. Use a gentle makeup remover and then follow with your a.m. cleansing routine. 2. Try a peptide cream or retinol lotion. Both will build collagen, which diminishes wrinkles and sagging. Be patient. It can take two to three months to see results. 3. Moisturize. If your skin is moderately dry, choose a lotion with glycerin. Really dry? Opt for one with shea butter.
BONUS: Two Minutes Once a week, use a microdermabrasion cream to exfoliate your skin. This will stimulate collagen, lessen brown spots, and clear your pores.

A: Nothing ruins an evening like spending an entire meal worrying about maxing out your credit card. But even though your financial reality may be uppermost in your mind, your friends may not be aware of your constraints. Speak up! “Tell them how much you enjoy spending time with them—and that you’re not looking to freeload—but things have to change,” suggests Leah Ingram, creator of the website SuddenlyFrugal .com and founder of GiftsandEtiquette.com. You could also initiate a new routine by hosting a potluck. Or take a lead role in choosing the next restaurant. Budget dining doesn’t have to mean fast food. Think ethnic: Thai, Chinese, Indian, and Italian places often have walletfriendly menus. “My gut sense is that your friends don’t have any idea of the impact on you, and they’ll be happy to make a change,” Ingram says.

IN 1921, two precocious children named Patricia and John were pulled out of their San Francisco classrooms by Lewis Terman, a Stanford University psychologist who was interested in discovering the sources of intellectual leadership. • Eighty years later, both Patricia and John were still alive and in good health—at age 91. What was their secret? As health scientists, we’ve spent the past 20 years following up with all of Terman’s 1,500 subjects—whose lives were tracked for eight decades as they grew up and had kids and grandkids—to discover why some of them thrived well into old age while others did not. • We looked at not only how long each participant lived, but also how they died. We studied a range of other factors—from schools to jobs to personality type—to see which traits predicted longevity. • And in the end we discovered that many of the mantras you hear (Eat your vegetables! Get married! Relax!) are good for you in lots of ways but don’t ensure a longer life. Read on to find out what myths we uncovered, then take our online quiz to see how you measure up.
1 Myth #
MARRIAGE GUARANTEES A LONGER LIFE. That’s not necessarily true. Scientific studies show it’s not married people who live longer but married men. The bulk of the evidence shows little, if any, advantage for married women. With men, the key risk appears to be divorce, which can disrupt vital ties to family members and friends for years to come. In the Terman study, steadily married men were likely to live to age 70 and beyond, but fewer than a third of the divorced men reached old age. Divorce not only harms men directly but also sets in motion other unhealthy behaviors. Steadily married women in the Terman study lived somewhat longer than women who divorced and then remarrried. But women who divorced and n never remarried did just fine—in fact, tthey usually lived long lives.
Myth M th h #2 TAKING IT EASY ADDS YEARS TO YOUR LIFE. Relaxation and an early retirement do not ensure long-lasting health. Terman study subjects with the most career success were the least likely to die young. In fact, on average, the most successful men lived five years longer than the least successful. Ambition, perseverance, impulse control, and high motivation contributed to a resilient work life, and that led to

MEN WHO FRETTED OVER THEIR HEALTH OFTEN LIVED LONGER THAN OPTIMISTS. STS.
Myth #3
YOU CAN WORRY YOURSELF TO DEATH. Actually, the opposite is true: Terman’s study clearly revealed that the best predictor of longevity in children was conscientiousness—being prudent, well organized, even somewhat obsessive. The same was true later in life. Adults who were thrifty, persistent, detail-oriented, and responsible lived the longest. Patricia, for example, “planned her work in detail” and had “definite purposes.” (And dependable doesn’t have to mean dull: Many of the most conscientious Terman subjects led exciting lives.) One of the most obvious explanations is that conscientious people do more to protect their health— for example, wearing seat belts or following doctors’ orders—and engage in fewer risky activities, like smoking, drinking to excess, abusing drugs, or driving too fast. They are not necessarily risk-averse, but they tend to be sensible in evaluating how far to push the envelope. Having this trait leads people into happier marriages, better friendships, and healthier work situations. That’s right: Conscientious people create long-life pathways for themselves. And you aren’t locked into—or out of—this trait. One Terman subject who lived to an old age scored very low in conscientiousness as a youngster. As an adult, he found a job he liked and had a very solid marriage. He became conscientious—and reaped the rewards.
more years overall. Usually, increased responsibility brings more challenges and a heavier workload, but this paradoxically correlates with long-term health. Findings were especially dramatic among the oldest participants. Continually productive men and women lived much longer than their
more laid-back comrades. A sustained work life mattered a great deal more than even their sense of happiness. So think carefully before retiring. Giving up an interesting, demanding job to live in a golf community away from your friends could actually increase the risk to your health.

Myth #4 MORE DEGREES MEAN MORE YEARS. Not so fast. We got some big surprises when we studied the effect of education on life span. During the era when Terman participants were children, it was common for parents to enroll their kids in school early and let them skip grades. But we found that when children entered first grade at age 5, not age 6, they often did not live as long. No single thing explained the higher risk, but because relating to classmates is so important, an early start may have launched some kids down erratic paths. As for higher education, we found that level of schooling by itself was not a very important predictor of longevity. The better-educated did tend to be healthier and live a little longer—but much more relevant than how many years of advanced formal education a person received were productivity and persistence in the face of challenges.

FRIENDLY, OUTGOING PEOPLE THRIVE. This widely held assumption is flawed. Americans tend to view extroversion as desirable—we worry if our children are shy. But our research indicates that sociable children did not, for the most part, live any longer than their more introverted classmates. John is a good example: A shy child who tried to avoid playing in large groups, he preferred chess and checkers to tag or charades. He later became a physicist and was healthy into his 90s. Why doesn’t sociability necessarily set one on a path to long life? After all, outgoing children grow up to have better social relations, and
that’s normally a sign of good health, right? In the study, children like John tended to move into stable jobs, have long-lasting marriages, and work in a responsible manner. Highly sociable people, in contrast, may be leaders in their businesses because of their enthusiasm and charm—but they’re also more likely to go along with social pressures to drink or smoke. A “people person” may often join in the dangers of the moment—and that affects longevity.
Similarly, we often hear that optimism is the secret to a healthy life. But the data suggest that cheerful, optimistic children were actually less likely to live to an old age than their more staid, sober counterparts. Cheerfulness was comparable to high blood pressure and high cholesterol as a risk factor for early death. Happiness and good health often go hand in hand—but that doesn’t mean happiness is the direct cause of good health. We found that it is usually some other set of characteristics that makes someone both happier and healthier. And optimism has a serious downside: No-worry folks may underestimate or ignore real threats and thereby fail to take precautions or follow medical advice.
BEING A STAR ATHLETE IN HIGH SCHOOL WON’T HELP YOU NEARLY AS MUCH AS BEING ACTIVE IN MIDDLE AGE.
Myth #6 JOCKS OUTLIVE NERDS. Regular physical exercise is good for your heart, no question. But if you’re athletic when young, then gradually become—and stay—sedentary in your middle years, you lose any longevity benefit. Being active in middle age is the key. And exercise doesn’t have to be intense, like running long distances every day, to be effective. John, the shy scientist, loved to ski. Linda, another Terman subject who lived a long life, made time for dancing, tennis, and gardening. The important thing is to find activities that suit you and stick with them over the long haul.

you—ask what you can do for your country.” Under the leadership of founding director Sargent Shriver (who passed away last month), the Peace Corps sent 600 volunteers to six countries that year with the mission that continues today: to spread peace and friendship. Since then, more than 200,000 Americans have served in 139 countries in what some call “the toughest job you’ll ever love.” MSNBC news commentator Chris Matthews was dropped off in southern Swaziland in 1968 and told to “develop this province”—at 22 and with a year of graduateschool economics under his belt. By the end of his two years, he’d
assisted some 200 vendors and tradesmen, organized business-ed courses, and acted in a production of The Merchant of Venice. For the boy from Philly who’d never left the country before, the experience gave the returning Matthews the confidence to knock on doors in Washington, D.C., leading to speechwriting Which Hollywood director is a Peace Corps veteran?

work for President Jimmy Carter and a job as Speaker of the House Tip O’Neill’s top aide. “The Peace Corps gets you out of your rut,” Matthews says. “It’s a great challenge as a young person to walk into a village and start relating to people.” During his stint in Mali from 1988 to 1990, Tom Moriarty dug wells. “But the real thing I accomplished was forging human bonds,” says the now 44-year-old federal-government risk manager. In Mali, Moriarty got into a motorcycle accident and had to fly back to the U.S. for treatment. His host mother’s first impulse was to mail him clothes—she’d heard it was cold in America. Still, navigating the often vast cultural divides isn’t always so easy. Darlene Grant, 50, is a social-work professor currently serving in Cambodia. An African-American who spent part of her childhood in the deep South, Grant thought she’d seen enough racism to last a lifetime. So she was unprepared for the stares she got in Battambang and the derisive shouts of “K’mao!”— Khmer for “black.” Riding her bike one day, she slid into a sewer and got stuck waist-deep in sludge. Passersby stopped and laughed, but no one offered to help. The incident made Grant determined to encourage people to appreciate one another’s differences. Now, when strangers yell “K’mao!” she tells them to say “Sa’at k’mao surrii” —“beautiful black lady”—instead. After she returns to America next year, she’ll share these lessons with students. “We don’t have the luxury to be timid, to not speak up against inhumanity,” she says. But Grant’s experience points to the risks involved in joining the

t was 2 a.m. when the future president finally turned up at the University of Michigan on Oct. 14, 1960. In the middle of a cross-country tour to shore up votes, Sen. John F. Kennedy was so tired he joked that he’d come to Ann Arbor to go to bed. But something about the youthful crowd—10,000 students strong—jolted him awake, inspiring him to drop his notes and speak off the cuff. “How many of you who are going to be doctors are willing to spend your days in Ghana?” he asked. “Technicians or engineers, how many of you are willing to work in the Foreign Service and spend your lives traveling around the world?” His speech captivated newlywed graduate students Alan and Judy Guskin. A few nights later at a diner, they scrawled a call to action on a napkin, urging students to heed Kennedy’s words and start a volunteer movement. The letter was printed in the college paper, and Michigan students shared it with friends at other schools. Kennedy’s advisers also took notice, and the Guskins were invited to meet him shortly before Election Day. “Senator, are you really serious about this?” Judy asked him. “Until Tuesday, we have to worry about the election,” he told her. “After that, the world.” Within six months, on March 1, 1961, Kennedy signed the executive order creating the Peace Corps. Calling it the “kiddie korps,” critics predicted it would attract draft dodgers. But for Kennedy and his brief presidency, the Peace Corps became the living embodiment of his plea to “ask not what your country can do for

Peace Corps. In 50 years, 23 volunteers have been murdered while serving. In January, ABC News reported that more than 1,000 volunteers had been raped or sexually assaulted in the last decade, and some accuse the organization of ignoring their concerns and responding with apathy. “We will never be able to eliminate volunteers’ exposure to crimes overseas,” said Peace Corps director Aaron S. Williams, “but we will work continuously to maximize [their] health and safety.”

olunteers today sign on for 27 months, which includes three initial months of study in language, culture, health, and technical skills. They work with residents in one of six areas: education, health, youth development, agriculture, the environment, or business. Stipends range from roughly $200 to $300 a month. Under the Obama administration, the Peace Corps’ budget has risen from $340 million to $400 million (its largest ever). Driven in part by the president’s emphasis on service, 13,500 candidates vied for 4,000 slots in 2010. The organization’s success is immensely gratifying to the Guskins, who served in Thailand from 1962 to 1964. Afterward, Alan embarked on an academic career culminating in the presidency of Antioch University. Judy became a professor, a leader in bilingual education, and a documentary filmmaker.

who’d returned six months ago, and he sounded just like someone who’d come back 30 years before,” Alan notes. “Everyone says the same thing—that they gained much more than they gave.” Indeed, Roshi Matewere reflects daily on her time in the Peace Corps. When the 24-year-old Iranian-American arrived in 2000 at the school in Malawi where she would teach, she found that the students had no desks or supplies and only one textbook. She raised $500 from American friends and relatives to buy furniture for her class and convinced a Malawi official to fund desks for two other classes. “When the truck with the desks came, the students surrounded me,” recalls Matewere, now 35 and a Roanoke, Va., math teacher married to a Malawian shopkeeper she met during her stint. “They cheered, and I started to cry. “The Peace Corps taught me to be self-sustaining,” she adds. “Afterward, I felt like you could put me anywhere in the world and I’d survive.” PEACE CORPS BY THE NUMBERS Number of volunteers now serving: 8,655

F
or n e a r ly a
decade, classicalpop star Josh Groban has had serious success, selling 25 million albums worldwide. But the affable 29-year-old, whose latest disc is Illuminations, refuses to take himself too seriously. Look no further than his selfdeprecating guest shots on Glee and his skits for Jimmy Kimmel Live!, where he did a musical tribute to Kanye West’s tweets. “For as long as I can remember,” Groban tells Shawna Malcom, “I’ve been the class clown.”
PARADE You recently moved
from your native Los Angeles to New York. How do you like the East Coast dating scene? Generally, I don’t find many women in New York who are looking for a free ride or talking to me for the wrong reasons. They don’t care what I do. Everyone’s got something going on here, which is wonderful because you can have a conversation about stuff that doesn’t involve the superficial. 16 • February 20, 2011

What’s your Sunday routine? Musician hours are not like everyone else’s, so my Sunday might actually fall on a Wednesday. I’m generally a night owl, so there’s a good possibility that I will sleep until noon. I’m not proud of it, but I’m not gonna sugarcoat it. I like to take my dog to Central Park so he can run around—if I can have fun through his eyes, it’s a good day.
What does a balladeer put on to get a girl in the mood? [laughs] Nine Inch Nails. Seriously? We ain’t listenin’ to nothing romantic; I get enough of that during the day! And I’m super-shy about playing my songs or singing for a girl I like. I guess because it’s such a part of me, I look at it as, “I’m letting you in now.” It’s gotta be someone really special for me to feel comfortable doing that. In July, you’ll appear in the movie Crazy Stupid Love with Steve Carell. I play a lawyer who thinks he’s the life of the party telling bad jokes. I must do that really well,
because they didn’t audition anybody else! I don’t know what that says about me. I was honored, and then I was like, “Wait a minute….” Pitch a story line for your next guest shot on Glee. A “hair-off ” between Matthew Morrison and me would be an absolute delight. I think I could take him down! You turn 30 on February 27. How does that feel? I’m embracing it. My 20s have been filled with a lot of trialby-fire moments and uncertainty, but I’m going to enjoy my 30s the way I should’ve enjoyed my 20s. And mark my words—if I’m not on Broadway and/or hosting Saturday Night Live by the time I’m 40, you’ll find me packing it in and playing shuffleboard.
Will you typically cook at home or eat out? My cooking ing is cereal and milk—I’m m a bigtime Cheerios eerios guy. I have video of my parents bribribing me with ith th them when h I was a kid: “If you sing ‘You Are My Sunshine,’ you’re allowed to put your hand in the box and take as many as you can grab!” But I’m also a fan of restaurant brunches. I’m on a search for the best huevos rancheros in New York. What’s your most unusual backstage request? Backstage, I want a couch, water, edamame, and apple juice, which is good for clearing your throat. But for the bus it’s a CB radio. You can tap into the truckers’ radios and talk anonymously. I love to prank walkie-talkie! Like, “10-9er, 9er, radio check. Over.” And they say, “Yeah, your radio’s working all right. Where you going to?” “I’m hauling about 20 tons of Velveeta cheese down to Austin. What are you haulin’?” You can keep going and going. I tell you, it’s addictive.
