Up next for Tunisia: considering the role of Islam

REDMOND

COCC says it wants to be efficient, but are its ...

Solar strengths negated?

By Thomas Fuller New York Times News Service

TUNIS — The second phase of Tunisia’s revolution played out in this city’s ancient medina last week as military helicopters circled and security forces rushed to carry out an unusual mission: protecting the city’s brothels.

Police officers dispersed a group of rock-throwing protesters who streamed into a warren of alleyways lined with bordellos shouting, “God is great!” and “No to brothels in a Muslim country!”

Five weeks after protesters forced out the authoritarian government of President Zine El Abidine Ben Ali, Tunisians are locked in a fierce and noisy debate about the role of Islam in politics.

About 98 percent of the population of 10 million is Muslim, but Tunisia’s liberal social policies and Western lifestyle shatter stereotypes of the Arab world.

Abortion is legal, polygamy is banned and women commonly wear bikinis on the country’s Mediterranean beaches. Wine is openly sold in supermarkets and imbibed at bars across the country.

Women’s groups say they are concerned that in the cacophonous aftermath of the revolution, conservative forces could tug the country away from its strict tradition of secularism.

“Nothing is irreversible,” said Khadija Cherif, a former head of the Tunisian Association of Democratic Women, a feminist organization. “We don’t want to let down our guard.”

Cherif was one of thousands of Tunisians who marched through the capital on Saturday demanding the separation of mosque and state in one of the largest demonstrations since the overthrow of Ben Ali. Protesters held up signs saying, “Politics ruins religion and religion ruins politics.”

n the next several years, Central Oregon Community College will construct at least five buildings around the region. By law, the college will install solar energy technology on each of those new facilities, even though the shady Bend campus isn’t an ideal location for roof-mounted or freestanding photovoltaic panels.

The Redmond and Madras campuses, with their wide-open areas free of trees or other obstructions, on the other hand, would be great places to put in large ground-mounted solar arrays. But the state won’t allow COCC to take the money it’s required to spend on solar technology for three new Bend buildings and put it into a larger, more efficient solar array elsewhere. And that befuddles COCC officials who say they’re just trying to be good stewards of public funds and at the same time be energy efficient.

“We know we have an opportunity to put in solar at a level that far exceeds the amount required for the projects,” said Gene Zinkgraf, COCC’s director of construction. “That opportunity happens to be in Redmond and Madras.”

The law, which went into effect in 2008, requires all public building projects or major renovations costing $1 million or more to have 1.5 percent of their total budget spent on solar energy technology.

Laxity allowed gun sales, chief says

Will future book scribblers be marginalized?

By Dirk Johnson New York Times News Service

CHICAGO — Locked in a climatecontrolled vault at the Newberry Library here, a volume titled “The Pen and the Book” can be studied only under the watch of security cameras.

The book, about making a profit

in publishing, scarcely qualifies as a literary masterpiece. It is highly valuable, instead, because a reader has scribbled in the margins of its pages.

The scribbler was Mark Twain, who had penciled, among other observations, a one-way argument with the author, Walter Besant, that “nothing

could be stupider” than using advertising to sell books as if they were “essential goods” like “salt” or “tobacco.”

On another page, Twain made some snide remarks about the big sums being paid to another author of his era, Mary Baker Eddy, the founder of Christian Science.

Redmond Police Chief Dave Tarbet said Friday that poor procedures and a lack of oversight gave a former officer free rein at the armory, allowing Lt. Larry Prince to allegedly sell and trade guns and gun parts belonging to the department.

A 16-year veteran of the department, Prince, 48, faces 18 Larry Prince charges each of first-degree offi- faces mulcial misconduct and first-degree tiple charges theft, as well as a single charge related to the of forgery. He was arrested in sale and trade Coos Bay earlier this month and of Redmond is currently under house arrest Police Departafter posting bail on Feb. 14. ment guns.

Tarbet was a captain in 2009 when Prince sold him a scope and parts for an AR-15 rifle, one of multiple Redmond officers who bought items from Prince that have since been traced to the armory. He was appointed interim chief in December, shortly before Prince was put on administrative leave. Prince resigned from the department on Tuesday.

Wednesday, the Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office advised Tarbet to avoid speaking in-depth about the details of the case or Prince’s management of the armory.

“They don’t want me to because it’s part of the criminal case. They’re afraid other things might come out that aren’t in those documents; I could slip and say something I shouldn’t,” Tarbet said.

“I’d like to respond, I truly would, but I can’t.”

Further review of several hundred pages of documents made public by the Deschutes County Circuit Court reveals record-keeping discrepancies at the department’s armory dating back eight years.

Prince served as manager of the armory for around 10 years, until he was replaced last summer.

U.S. military’s space plan: a combination of might, global unity

By Lolita C. Baldor The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The U.S. military needs to better protect its satellites and strengthen its ability to use them as weapons as the uncharted battlefield of space becomes increasingly crowded and dangerous, Pentagon leaders say.

A new military strategy for space, as mapped out by the Pentagon, calls for greater cooperation with other nations on space-based programs to improve America’s ability to deter enemies.

“It’s a domain, like air land and sea,” said Gen. Kevin Chilton, who led U.S. Strategic Command until he retired late last month.

Johnathan Little fills out an online job application at the Thomasville Public Library, which offers free wireless Internet, earlier this month in Thomasville, Ala. Thomasville is located in a rural county where broadband and cell phone reception can be hard to come by. The county estimates it would cost about $5.5 million to make wireless Internet access available throughout the county.

Digital age is slow to arrive in much of rural America

By Kim Severson New York Times News Service

COFFEEVILLE, Ala. — After a couple of days in this part of rural Alabama, it is hard to complain about a dropped iPhone call or a Cee Lo video that takes a few seconds too long to load.

The county administrator cannot get broadband at her house.

Neither can the sportswriter at The Thomasville Times.

Here in Coffeeville, the only computer many students ever touch is at the high school.

“I’m missing a whole lot,” Justin Bell, 17, said. “I know that.”

As the world embraces its digital age — 2 billion people now use the Internet regularly — the line delineating two Americas has become more broadly drawn.

There are those who have reliable, fast access to the Internet, and those, like about half of the 27,867 people here in Clarke County, who do not.

In rural America, only 60 percent of households use broadband Internet service, according to a report released Thursday by the Department of Commerce.

That is 10 percent less than urban households.

Overall, 28 percent of Americans do not use the Internet at all.

The report was developed in conjunction with a national broadband map that was also released Thursday as part of a billion-dollar effort to improve Internet access in the United States, particularly in rural areas.

Affordable broadband service through hard wiring and or cellular phone coverage could revolutionize life in rural parts of the country, according to advocates for improving such services. In addition to being able to pay bills or purchase goods not available in nearby towns, isolated people could visit doctors online. They could work from home and take college classes.

Increasingly, interacting with certain branches of government can be done only online. And in emergencies, a lack of cell phone or e-mail can have serious consequences. Emergency alerts regarding severe weather, for example, are often sent only through text or e-mail.

All of that is important, certainly. But there is also a social component to good Internet access. Here in Clarke County, where churches and taxidermy shops line the main roads and drivers learn early to dodge logging trucks hauling pine trees, most people would simply like to upload photos of their children to Facebook.

“Ninety-five percent of the people in this county who want public water can have it, but people can’t even talk to each other around here,” said Sharon Jones, 60, who owns a small logging company with her husband and lives just outside of Coffeeville.

It took her three days to try to

“For most people out here, satellite is all you can get, and it’s $70 a month. Now who is going to pay that? This is a poor, rural county.”

— Joyce Graham, Clarke County, Ala. arrange a meeting with the governor 150 miles away in Montgomery because such inquiries cannot be made over the phone and she had to drive 45 minutes to her daughter’s house to use e-mail.

At home, her cell phone works only if she walks to the porch and stands at the end of a bench. So she uses a local cell phone/walkie-talkie hybrid called Southern Link.

They have dial-up at the office, “but that’s so slow it makes you pull your hair out,” Jones said. A satellite dish is out of the question because her house is surrounded by trees.

“It takes 10 times the effort to do what someone else can do in a matter of five minutes,” she said.

For many here, where the median household income is $27,388, the existing cell phone and Internet options are too expensive.

Joyce Graham, who oversees Web-based classes at Coffeeville High School, has struggled with dial-up service at home since 2000. A month ago, she started buying satellite service with help from stimulus money.

“For most people out here, satellite is all you can get, and it’s $70 a month,” she said. “Now who is going to pay that? This is a poor, rural county.”

Not that all of the county is without decent coverage. Some towns have broadband service, and other people can get it using wireless cellular lines.

Gina Wilson, director of the Thomasville library, oversees 11 terminals with lightning-fast Internet access. They attract the usual array of children and the unemployed during the day, as well as college students who take classes online. At night, people stop by after work to check their e-mail or scroll through Facebook.

Wilson noticed that after hours, people would pull into the parking lot, open their laptops and try to use the library’s wireless signal. So she started leaving it on all night, and soon will post a sign on the door with the password (which, if you are in Thomasville and need to get online, is “guest.”)

But even she struggles at home.

She lives two miles from the city limits and only began getting broadband service through a Verizon wireless device in December.

There have been efforts to improve the county’s communication services. A group of community leaders, for example, worked for years on a plan to attach microwave technology

to the numerous water towers in the area. Making wireless Internet access available throughout the county would cost about $5.5 million, they estimated.

They even applied for stimulus money and made it through the first round, but were ultimately turned down.

A spokesman for AT&T, which offers coverage in parts but not all of Clarke Country, declined to comment.

The State of Alabama is using federal and state grants to help encourage more service in rural areas. They are working with service providers and setting up outreach teams with mobile computer labs to show people why they need the Internet. The theory is that increasing demand will make it more lucrative for companies to invest in the technology and allow them to offer online service at prices that residents can afford.

Still, it will be a long road to the digital age here.

“We are trying to pull ourselves into the 21st century,” Jones, the logging company owner, said. “I don’t think the rest of the world understands there is a piece of the world here that is really challenged.”

You may think the only people capable of snooping on your Internet activity are government intelligence agents or possibly a talented teenage hacker holed up in his parents’ basement. But some simple software lets just about anyone sitting next to you at your local coffee shop watch you browse the Web and even assume your identity online.

“Like it or not, we are now living in a cyberpunk novel,” said Darren Kitchen, a systems administrator for an aerospace company in Richmond, Calif., and the host of Hak5, a video podcast about computer hacking and security. “When people find out how trivial and easy it is to see and even modify what you do online, they are shocked.”

Until recently, only determined and knowledgeable hackers with fancy tools and lots of time on their hands could spy while you used your laptop or smart phone at Wi-Fi hot spots. But a free program called Firesheep, released in October, has made it simple to see what other users of an unsecured Wi-Fi network are doing and then log on as them at the sites they visited.

More than a million people have downloaded the program in the last three months (including this reporter, who is not exactly a computer genius).

And it is easy to use.

Safe sites The only sites that are safe from snoopers are those that employ the cryptographic protocol transport layer security or its predecessor, secure sockets layer, throughout your session.

PayPal and many banks do this,

but a startling number of sites that people trust to safeguard their privacy do not. You know you are shielded from prying eyes if a little lock appears in the corner of your browser or the Web address starts with “https” rather than “http.”

“The usual reason websites give for not encrypting all communication is that it will slow down the site and would be a huge engineering expense,” said Chris Palmer, technology director at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, an electronic rights advocacy group based in San Francisco. “Yes, there are operational hurdles, but they are solvable.”

Indeed, Gmail made endto-end encryption its default mode in January 2010. Facebook began to offer the same protection as an opt-in security feature last month, though it is so far available only to a small percentage of users and has limitations. For example, it doesn’t work with many thirdparty applications.

“It’s worth noting that Facebook took this step, but it’s too early to congratulate them,” said Butler, who is frustrated that “https” is not the site’s default setting. “Most people aren’t going to know about it or won’t think it’s important or won’t want to use it when they find out that it disables major applications.”

Joe Sullivan, chief security officer at Facebook, said the company was engaged in a “deliberative rollout process,” to access and address any unforeseen difficulties. “We hope to have it available for all users in the next several weeks,” he said, adding that the company was also working to address problems with third-party applications and to make “https” the default setting.

T S ‘Jasmine Revolution’ causes China to flex its force

Wisconsin GOP ups rhetoric in union-bill faceoff

Protesters gather in Benghazi, Libya’s second largest city, where witnesses said special military forces called in as reinforcements had instead decided to help the protesters take over the local army barracks.

Libyan protests widen to Tripoli; Gadhafi’s son warns of civil war

By David D. Kirkpatrick and Mona el-Naggar

U.S. ‘gravely concerned’ over use of lethal force

New York Times News Service

CAIRO — A five-day-old uprising in Libya took control of its second-largest city, Benghazi, and spread for the first time to the capital, Tripoli, late Sunday as the heir-apparent son of its strongman, Col. Moammar Gadhafi, warned Libyans in a televised speech that their oilrich country would fall into civil war and even renewed Western “colonization” if they threw off his father’s 40-year-long rule.

In a rambling, disjointed address delivered at about 1 a.m. on today, the son, Seif al-Islam Gadhafi, played down the uprising sweeping the country, which witnesses and rights activists say has left more than 200 people dead and hundreds wounded from gunfire by security forces. He repeated several times that “Libya is not Tunisia or Egypt” — the neighbors to the east and west that both overthrew their veteran autocrats in the space of the last six weeks.

The revolt shaking Libya is the latest and most violent turn in the rebellion across the Arab world that seemed unthinkable just two months ago and now poses the greatest threat in four decades to Gadhafi’s autocratic power. The United States condemned the Gadhafi government’s lethal use of force.

The younger Gadhafi sought to minimize the extent of the uprising and blamed it on Islamic radicals and Libyans in exile.

He offered a vague package of reforms, potentially including a new flag, a new national anthem and a new confederate structure. But his main theme was to threaten Libyans with the

The Associated Press

“Libya is not Tunisia or Egypt,” Seif al-Islam Gadhafi repeated several times during a speech delivered early today. prospect of civil war over its oil resources that would break up the country, deprive residents of food and education, and even invite a Western takeover.

“Libya is made up of tribes and clans and loyalties,” he said.

“There will be civil war.”

Recalling Libya’s colonial past, he warned, “The West and Europe and the United States will not accept the establishment of an Islamic emirate in Libya.”

Witnesses in Tripoli interviewed by telephone Sunday night said protesters were converging on the capital’s central Green Square and clashing with heavily armed riot police. Young men armed themselves with chains around their knuckles, steel pipes and machetes. The police had retreated from some neighborhoods, and protesters were seen armed with police batons, helmets and rifles commandeered from riot squads.

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration on Sunday condemned Libya’s use of lethal force against peaceful demonstrators, pointing to what it said were “multiple credible” reports that “hundreds of people” had been killed and injured in several days of unrest.

In the administration’s strongest statement on the escalating violence in Libya, the State Department said that it was “gravely concerned” about the reports and that the number of deaths was unknown because of a lack of access to many parts of the country by news organizations and human rights groups.

Philip Crowley, the State Department spokesman, said that the United States has raised “strong objections about the use of lethal force” with several senior Libyan officials, including Musa Kusa, the foreign minister.

Tens of thousands march in Bahrain MANAMA, Bahrain — Teachers, lawyers and engineers marched into Pearl Square on Sunday, joining an emboldened opposition whose political leaders demanded that the king dissolve the government and fire his uncle, who has held the post of prime minister for 40 years, before

they agree to enter into talks.

An anxious calm prevailed, with a standoff continuing between an absolute monarchy determined to preserve its full range of powers and a peaceful opposition demanding a transition to democracy with an elected government and representative parliament.

Demonstrators continued to occupy the symbolic center of the nation at Pearl Square, and by Sunday evening tens of thousands of people had jammed into the square in the largest gathering in a week of demonstrations.

Security forces stifle Iranian protests Anti-government protesters gathered throughout much of Iran on Sunday, most concentrated in the capital, Tehran, to mark the deaths of two men killed during demonstrations Feb. 14.

The government mounted a stultifying security presence in the capital, with the police making arrests and using tear gas to try to prevent the unrest from escalating.

Despite a steady rain, large crowds gathered intermittently throughout Tehran, from the main thoroughfare to city squares, according to opposition websites and witnesses.

The security forces seemed prepared for them, and in some locations, witnesses reported that police officers and baton-holding mercenaries outnumbered the protesters.

MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin Republicans on Sunday upped the pressure on Democrats who fled to Illinois to return home and vote on an anti-union bill, with the governor calling them obstructionists and a GOP lawmaker threatening to convene without them.

Gov. Scott Walker said the 14 minority Democrats who left Madison on Thursday were failing to do their jobs by “hiding out” in another state.

And Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald said his chamber would meet Tuesday to act on non-spending bills and confirm some of the governor’s appointees even if the Democrats don’t show up — a scenario that should outrage their constituents.

Senate Democrats acknowledged that the 19 Republicans could pass any item that doesn’t spend state money in their absence. The budget-repair bill they have been blocking requires a quorum of 20 senators to pass, while other measures require only a simple majority of the chamber’s 33 members.

Nonetheless, Democrats said they were standing firm in their opposition to the budget-repair bill, which would take away the right of most public employees to collectively bargain for their benefits and working conditions.

Hundreds of protesters filled the Capitol for a sixth straight day, noisily calling on Walker to drop the plan they consider an assault on workers’ rights.

Mary Bell, the president of Wisconsin’s powerful teachers’ union, called on teachers to return to work as scheduled today rather than continue absences to protest that have shut down public schools across the state. Some districts, such as Madison public schools, were not scheduled to take President’s Day off.

However, the Madison district said it would cancel today’s classes because of expected teacher protests.

BEIJING — Jittery Chinese authorities staged a show of force to squelch a mysterious online call for a “Jasmine Revolution,” with hundreds of onlookers but only a handful of people actively joining protests inspired by pro-democracy demonstrations sweeping the Middle East.

Authorities detained activists Sunday, increased the number of police on the streets, disconnected some cell phone text messaging services and censored Internet postings about the call to stage protests in Beijing, Shanghai and 11 other major cities.

Police took at least three people away in Beijing, one of whom tried to place white jasmine flowers on a planter while hundreds of people milled about the protest gathering spot, outside a McDonald’s on the capital’s busiest shopping street. In Shanghai, police led away three people near the planned protest spot after they scuffled in a bid to grab the attention of passers-by.

Many activists said they didn’t know who was behind the campaign and weren’t sure what to make of the call to protest, which first circulated Saturday on the U.S.based Chinese-language news website Boxun.com.

The unsigned notice called for a “Jasmine Revolution” — the name given to the Tunisian protest movement — and urged people “to take responsibility for the future.” Participants were urged to shout, “We want food, we want work, we want housing, we want fairness” — a slogan that highlights common complaints among Chinese.

China’s authoritarian government is ever alert for domestic discontent and has appeared unnerved by protests in Egypt, Tunisia, Bahrain, Yemen, Algeria and Libya. It has limited media reports about them, stressing the instability caused by the protests, and restricted Internet searches to keep Chinese uninformed about Middle Easterners’ grievances against their autocratic rulers.

Though there are many similarities between the complaints voiced by Middle East citizens and the everyday troubles of Chinese, Beijing’s tight grip on the country’s media, Internet and other forums poses difficulties for anyone trying to organize.

Unrest in Yemen could benefit al-Qaida ... or not

SANAA, Yemen — The populist uprising in Yemen, and the heavy-handed response of the government and its loyalists, has deepened instability that al-Qaida’s branch here could exploit to stage more attacks against the United States, U.S. officials say.

But the unrest could also prove problematic for the terrorist group: Yemen’s protesters are demanding democratic freedoms, not the Islamic caliphate al-Qaida seeks to create in this Middle Eastern nation and elsewhere.

Such calls for democracy would make it harder for al-Qaida to claim it has popular sentiments on its side, and would also give

the disaffected a peaceful way to air their grievances without fear of persecution.

“If we change the system, if we have a real government, I am sure we won’t have al-Qaida or terrorism anymore,” said Mohsin Bin Farid, secretary general of the opposition party, League of the Sons of Yemen.

Across the Arab world, U.S.backed autocrats who have played vital roles in combating terrorism are under siege by populist revolts, raising concerns that changes in leadership could disrupt efforts by the United States and its allies to prevent al-Qaida’s growth.

But there are also indications that al-Qaida itself is concerned about the potential downside of

the democratic freedoms being unleashed by protests across the region. Populations repressed by U.S.-backed regimes have long provided a pipeline for radicalization, recruitment and financing for al-Qaida and other militant groups.

On Friday, the terrorism network’s deputy leader, Ayman al-Zawahiri, said in a taped message to the Egyptian people that their nation’s rule had long “deviated from Islam” and warned

that democracy “can only be nonreligious.”

And last week, the most recent issue of Sada al-Malahim, an online magazine published by alQaida in the Arabian Peninsula, called for the Tunisian people to implement “God’s law” and said that democracy was the way to hell, according to a translation posted on Waq-al-Waq, a blog written by Gregory Johnsen, an expert on Yemen based at Princeton University.

Solar Continued from A1 That technology can be photovoltaic panels, solar water heating, solar pool heating and active solar space heating systems.

It cannot be replaced by wind, biomass, hydro, geothermal or any other renewable energy forms.

If an agency thinks putting solar on its building is inappropriate, it can appeal. But, the law states, “the recommendation of whether solar technology in a building is inappropriate will not consider cost-effectiveness of the solar energy system.”

Why it’s only solar Renewable Northwest Project, a nonprofit devoted to alternative energy, lobbied for the 1.5 percent law. Rep. Pete Holvey, D-Eugene, who was the chief sponsor of the House bill, did not return calls for comment.

Erin Greeson, a representative of the Renewable Northwest Project, which lobbied for the 1.5 percent law, said the reason for focusing on solar power instead of other technologies is that “it makes more sense on buildings than something like wind,” she said. “In the case of wind, it’s oftentimes out in rural areas. … You don’t see a lot of wind projects up on buildings. Solar is more efficient.”

Greeson said that Renewable Northwest Project also supported the solar-centric bill to spur solar development in Oregon.

“There had been quite bit of wind development but not quite as much solar,” she said. “This bill helped to bring more solar into the state.”

The culinary facility on COCC’s campus has been deemed inappropriate for solar technology because of the campus’s tree shade. According to the law, that 1.5 percent must be included in the “next building project undertaken by the contracting agency.”

But, as it turns out, it’s not so simple.

COCC has five facilities in planning or under construction that are subject to the 1.5 percent law. On the Bend campus, the culinary, science and health careers buildings must comply with the solar law, as will COCC’s Redmond technology center and Madras’ new education center.

The culinary facility’s 1.5 percent solar requirement has been deferred because it is in an area of significant shade that provides less than a 75 percent “total solar resource fraction,” which determines how effective a solar array will be.

But the science building will likely have a 60-kilowatt array, and the health careers building will likely have a 30-kilowatt array. Both of those roofmounted photovoltaic arrays will have about 80 percent of the solar energy at the buildings available throughout the year.

In contrast, the Redmond tech center will likely install a 30-kilowatt array with higher effectiveness; the northern section of campus has a large parking easement and an empty area of campus that could have two arrays totaling 2,400 kilowatts with a much higher capacity for producing power.

In Madras, the feasibility study found all areas of the campus are ideal, and recommended a 1,000-kilowatt array as well as 180 kilowatts on other facilities and parking lots.

‘Just no’ Before working with Amy Jarvis, a mechanical engineer with Mazzetti Nash Lipsey Burch, which conducted the solar feasibility study presented at COCC’s board meeting last week, COCC used another consulting firm that asked the Oregon Department of Energy and other state groups whether the college might bundle all its solar requirements and put them on one site in Redmond or Madras.

The college was told no.

“I don’t think we were given a reason why not,” Zinkgraf said.

“Just no.”

That’s frustrating for Zinkgraf, who said he’s trying to find the most efficient and financially responsible way to comply with the law, especially if it could reap more power.

To him, it would make most sense to take all the Bend buildings’ solar requirements and put them together on the Redmond or Madras campus, where the college could produce more solar power and build a larger array.

Zinkgraf also said it would be nice if the college could fulfill the 1.5 percent requirement through another type of renewable energy. He pointed to Oregon State University-Cascades Campus’ plan to install a geothermal ground-source heat pump, which pumps cooler air or groundwater from the ground to precool or preheat the building.

“We’d be interested in using other renewable energy sources if we found that was a possibility,” Zinkgraf said. “But it has to be economically feasible to do it.”

The feasibility study found the vast majority of all solar potential for COCC is on the Redmond and Madras campuses. The Bend campus has a low potential due to “a high level of shading from the large, plentiful trees throughout the campus,” the study states. “By contrast, it is unusual for an organization to have such large parcels of land that are not planned for future development as with the Madras and Redmond campuses which should allow COCC to reap the benefits of solar PV economies of scale.”

But COCC must put solar arrays on its new Bend buildings.

For Jarvis, who also worked on several projects at Clatsop Community College in Astoria, that’s not surprising.

“Obviously putting solar in Astoria does not appear to be intuitive,” Jarvis said. “We worked with different people at the state and at the community college and really tried to say, ‘Can we do wind (energy technology)? Can we do anything else rather than put solar in Astoria?’ And the answer was no.”

Jarvis said Bend gets about 40 percent more sun than Astoria annually. “(Bend) is getting more energy, but it’s the same cost to install the system,” she said.

“Astoria is pretty cloudy; there’s not a lot of available sun.”

Despite the less-than-optimal solar opportunities in Astoria, the community college there was able to get a power purchase agreement to allow for alternative financing.

“If you read through our report, we basically say in Bend, do what you have to do by law but not a lot else,” Jarvis said.

That’s not the case in Madras or Redmond, where nearly every possible location for installing solar technology was suggested as a high priority.

“On the Bend campus the only things that were high priority were the projects that are required to have solar,” she said.

Money details COCC plans to use a power purchase agreement to install the solar arrays. By going through a power purchase agreement, a private company agrees to spend the money to install and maintain the solar panels. That way, the college doesn’t actually end up using the 1.5 percent it has set aside and can put that money toward other construction. Then the private company gets all the state and federal incentives and tax breaks, and the college agrees to buy the energy produced by the solar arrays back from the private company at a set price over a set amount of time.

“That gives us the ability to know what our energy costs will be 10 years into the future,” Zinkgraf said. “It could be a cost savings.”

COCC board chairman Charley Miller said last week’s board meeting was the first he’d heard of the law.

“It’s so solar-centric,” he said.

“It’s not a typical third-party type certification, where if you can’t do solar there you can do a different heating system or something. It’s just solar, solar, solar.”

Miller pointed to the board’s priorities, which include a desire to “design and construct sustainable institutional facilities and establish third-party sustainability certification as appropriate.”

He said he appreciated that with the power purchase agreement installing the solar arrays may not cost the college any additional money. But he’s still surprised the law is so focused on promoting solar power.

“It’s interesting that it’s so specific to solar, and probably a little more flexibility would have been better in our case,” Miller said. “It would have been efficient to build one big solar array in Madras or Redmond.

One of those would have been the best site instead of doing one here and here and here.”

Paul Gehl is a curator at the Newberry Library in Chicago who helped create a collection of books with marginalia from famous people. Gehl blames generations of librarians and teachers for “inflicting us with the idea” that writing in books makes them “spoiled or damaged.”

Margins Continued from A1 Like many readers, Twain was engaging in marginalia, writing comments alongside passages and sometimes giving an author a piece of his mind. It is a rich literary pastime, sometimes regarded as a tool of literary archaeology, but it has an uncertain fate in a digitalized world.

“People will always find a way to annotate electronically,” said G. Thomas Tanselle, a former vice president of the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Foundation and an adjunct professor of English at Columbia University.

“But there is the question of how it is going to be preserved. And that is a problem now facing collections libraries.”

These are the sorts of matters pondered by the Caxton Club, a literary group founded in 1895 by 15 Chicago bibliophiles. With the Newberry, it is sponsoring a symposium in March titled “Other People’s Books: Association Copies and the Stories They Tell.”

The symposium will feature a new volume of 52 essays about association copies — books once owned or annotated by the authors — and ruminations about how they enhance the reading experience. The essays touch on works that connect President Abraham Lincoln and Alexander Pope; Jane Austen and William Cooper; Walt Whitman and Henry David Thoreau.

Marginalia was more common in the 1800s. Samuel Taylor Coleridge was a prolific margin writer, as were William Blake and Charles Darwin. In the 20th century it mostly came to be regarded like graffiti: something polite and respectful people did not do.

Paul Gehl, a curator at the Newberry, blamed generations of librarians and teachers for “inflicting us with the idea” that writing in books makes them “spoiled or damaged.”

But marginalia never vanished. When Nelson Mandela was imprisoned in South Africa in 1977, a copy of Shakespeare was circulated among the inmates. Mandela wrote his name next to the passage from “Julius Caesar” that reads, “Cowards die many times before their deaths.”

Studs Terkel, the oral historian, was known to admonish friends who would read his books but leave them free of markings. He told them that reading a book should not be a passive exercise, but rather a raucous conversation.

Books with markings are increasingly seen these days as more valuable, not just for a celebrity connection but also for what they reveal about the community of people associated with a work, according to Heather Jackson, a professor of English at the University of Toronto.

Jackson, who will speak at the symposium, said examining marginalia reveals a pattern of emotional reactions among everyday readers that might otherwise be missed, even by literary professionals.

“It might be a shepherd writing in the margins about what a book means to him as he’s out tending his flock,” Jackson said.

“It might be a schoolgirl telling us how she feels. Or maybe it’s lovers who are exchanging their thoughts about what a book means to them.”

Just about anyone who has paged through a used college textbook has seen marginalia, and often added comments of their own.

Not everyone values marginalia, said Paul Ruxin, a member of the Caxton Club. “If you think about the traditional view that the book is only about the text,”

he said, “then this is kind of foolish, I suppose.”

David Spadafora, president of the Newberry, said marginalia enriched a book, as readers infer other meanings, and lends it historical context. “The digital revolution is a good thing for the physical object,” he said. As more people see historical artifacts in electronic form, “the more they’re going to want to encounter the real object.”

The collection at the Newberry includes a bound copy of “The Federalist” once owned by Thomas Jefferson. Besides penciling his initials in the book, Jefferson wrote those of the founding fathers alongside their essays, which had originally been published anonymously.

“It’s pretty interesting to hold a book that Jefferson held,” Spadafora said. “Besides that, if we know what books were in his library in the years leading to the writing of the Declaration of Independence, it tells us something about what might have inspired his intellect.”

In her markings, Rose Caylor gave us a sense of her husband, the playwright Ben Hecht. In her copy of “A Child of the Century,” which Hecht wrote, she had drawn an arrow pointing to burns on a page. “Strikes matches on books,” she noted about her husband, who was a smoker.

Some lovers of literature even conjure dreamy notions about those who have left marginalia for them to find. In his poem “Marginalia,” Billy Collins, the former American poet laureate, wrote about how a previous reader had stirred the passions of a boy just beginning high school and reading “The Catcher in the Rye.” As the poem describes it, he noticed “a few greasy smears in the margin” and a message that was written “in soft pencil — by a beautiful girl, I could tell.”

It read, “Pardon the egg salad stains, but I’m in love.”

Ugandan president easily wins 4th term KAMPALA, Uganda — President Yoweri Museveni of Uganda was re-elected to a fourth term in a presidential election Friday, the country’s electoral commission announced Sunday.

Museveni won a little more than 68 percent of the 8 million votes cast, the electoral commission said. Kizza Besigye, a retired army colonel and a former close confidant of the president, received about 26 percent.

Besigye rejected the official results, saying that opposition parties would consult on what their next steps might be.

Guns Continued from A1 In the fall of 2003, Redmond reserve officer Tim Scott reported to his superiors that his department-issued Glock model 17 pistol had been stolen out of his truck. In May 2009, an intern with the department prepared an inventory of the armory using information provided by Prince, indicating the department still had the pistol issued to Scott. Investigators have determined the pistol is listed in statewide and federal databases as not yet recovered.

Investigators interviewed armorer and firearms trainer Scott Reeser of the Portland Police Bureau about approximately 100 distinctive Smith & Wesson shotguns, each with stocks that had been painted yellow, that were transferred to the Redmond Police Department a few years ago. Reeser recalled loading the shotguns

into Prince’s truck, and the agreement that the shotguns were to be used only by law enforcement.

“He said what is disturbing about this is that he has had some of his fellow officers see these shotguns at gun sales, yellow stocks and all,” the report reads.

“He said that some of those officers have even been able to identify a particular shotgun that was assigned to them.”

Tarbet said the department has made changes to its armory policies as a result of the investigation into Prince. Locks on the armory have been switched, and new keys have been issued to seven department employees.

The city’s finance department has conducted an independent inventory of the contents of the armory, he said, providing a baseline for scheduled twiceyearly audits.

The department had some procedures in place in the past intended to safeguard against

misconduct, Tarbet said, but oversight was minimal. Supervisors above the level of armory management have been required to sign off on expensive purchases or the disposition of armory property, he said, but did a poor job of verifying that the actions they approved actually took place.

While safeguards and reliable accounting are necessary and long overdue, Tarbet said organizations need to be able to trust that their employees are largely honest.

“If you want to account for every pencil, we’ll be wrapped in so much red tape we’ll never get anything done,” he said. “It’s that level of trust and integrity in any business that you have to have … sometimes people take advantage of that.”

Space Continued from A1 “Space is not just a convenience.

It’s become a critical part in every other (battlefield) domain.”

The U.S., Chilton said, needs to make sure that it protects and maintains the battlefield capabilities it gets from space-based assets, including global positioning data, missile warning system information and communications with fighters or unmanned drones that are providing surveillance or firing missiles against the enemy.

As the U.S. and other countries depend more on their satellites for critical data, those assets become greater targets for their enemies.

“It’s prudent to anticipate that, at this point, we will not go into a future conflict with a sophisticated adversary and not expect to be challenged in the space domain,” Chilton told The Associated Press in an interview. “We need to be thinking about how we would go into future conflicts and make sure that we un-level (that) battlefield in our favor.”

While the new strategy — the first of its kind — stresses the peaceful use of space, it also underscores the importance of satellites in both waging and deterring war.

“We need to ensure that we can continue to utilize space to navigate with accuracy, to communicate with certainty, to strike with precision and to see the battlefield with clarity,” said William Lynn, deputy defense secretary.

Lynn and other Pentagon leaders say space has become more congested, competitive and contested, and the U.S. needs to keep pace on all fronts.

Gen. James Cartwright, vice chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said the U.S. and other nations must develop rules of the road for space that lay out what is acceptable behavior and movement there.

At a forum put on by the Center for Strategic and International Studies, Cartwright said nations need to have guidelines that gov-

Tunisia Continued from A1 They were also mourning the killing on Friday of a Polish priest by unknown attackers. That assault was also condemned by the country’s main Muslim political movement, Ennahdha, or Renaissance, which was banned under Ben Ali’s dictatorship but is now regrouping.

In interviews in the Tunisian press, Ennahdha’s leaders have taken pains to praise tolerance and moderation, comparing themselves to the Islamic parties that govern Turkey and Malaysia.

“We know we have an essentially fragile economy that is very open toward the outside world, to the point of being totally dependent on it,” Hamadi Jebali, the party’s secretary general, said in an interview with the Tunisian magazine Realites. “We have no interest whatsoever in throwing everything away today or tomorrow.”

Islamist movement The party, which is allied with Egypt’s Muslim Brotherhood, says it opposes the imposition of Islamic law in Tunisia.

But some Tunisians say they remain unconvinced.

Raja Mansour, a bank employee in Tunis, said it was too early to tell how the Islamist movement would evolve.

“We don’t know if they are a real threat or not,” she said. “But the best defense is to attack.” By

ern the approximately 22,000 manmade objects orbiting Earth, including about 1,100 active satellites.

For example, he said, there is nothing that requires objects to pass left to left, or that says which country should move its satellite if two objects are on a collision course.

While avoiding crashes is an important goal, officials said nations also need to ensure that their communications and other signals passing through the satellites also do not conflict.

The strategy offers little detail about offensive operations in space. But defense officials say that China, Iran and others have demonstrated their abilities to take action in space.

In January 2007, China startled world leaders when it took out a defunct weather satellite with a warhead launched on board a ballistic missile.

China’s actions made it the first country to destroy a satellite with a ground-based missile. The U.S. and Russia had shot down satellites, but the U.S. did it in 1985 with an air-launched missile and the Soviets with a hunter satellite.

The China shoot-down alarmed

officials, who said it signaled the launch of space wars and would set off a race to militarize space.

According to James Lewis, a national security expert at the Center for Strategic and International Affairs, an attack against U.S. satellites can immediately degrade military performance, taking out communications, data links and other networks needed to operate weapons, sensors and fighters in the air.

“We need some kind of understanding among spacefaring nations about what we can and can’t do,” Lewis said, adding that a key is to have layers of defense, so there are backups if one set of signals is lost.

The new space strategy, endorsed by top Pentagon and intelligence officials, also shows the importance of having alternatives.

For example, if a satellite signal is being jammed, officials should be able to go to another or to an air or sea-based signal.

The U.S. also needs to make it known that even if another nation attacks an American satellite, the U.S. military response wouldn’t be limited to a space-based action, officials said. It could turn to any of its war-fighting capabilities.

this she meant that secularists should assert themselves, she said.

Ennahdha is one of the few organized movements in a highly fractured political landscape.

The caretaker government that has managed the country since Ben Ali was ousted is fragile and weak, with no clear leadership emerging from the revolution.

The unanimity of the protest movement against Ben Ali in January, the uprising that set off demonstrations across the Arab world, has since evolved into numerous daily protests by competing groups, a development that many Tunisians find unsettling.

“Freedom is a great, great adventure, but it’s not without risks,” said Fathi Ben Haj Yathia, an author and former political prisoner. “There are many unknowns.”

One of the largest demonstrations since Ben Ali fled took place on Sunday in Tunis, where several thousand protesters marched to the prime minister’s office to demand the caretaker government’s resignation. They accused it of having links to Ben Ali’s government.

Tunisians are literally debating the future of their country on the streets. Avenue Habib Bourguiba, the broad thoroughfare in central Tunis named after the country’s first president, resembles a Roman forum on weekends, packed with people of all ages excitedly discussing politics.

The freewheeling and some-

With the extensive security apparatus of the old government decimated, leaving the police force in disarray, many women say they are afraid to walk outside alone at night.

Fanatics or sailors?

Achouri Thouraya, 29, a graphic artist, says she has mixed feelings toward the revolution. She shared in the joy of the overthrow of what she described as Ben Ali’s kleptocratic government. But she also believes that the government’s crackdown on any Muslim groups it considered extremist, a draconian police program that included monitoring those who prayed regularly, helped protect the rights of women.

“We had the freedom to live our lives like women in Europe,” she said. Now she is a “little scared,” Thouraya said.

She added, “We don’t know who will be president and what attitudes he will have toward women.”

Mounir Troudi, a jazz musician, disagrees. He has no love for the Ben Ali government, but believes that Tunisia will remain a land of beer and bikinis.

“This is a maritime country,” he said. “We are sailors, and we’ve always been open to the outside world. I have confidence in the Tunisian people. It’s not a country of fanatics.”

Bend gets help from state funds for ADA compliance

of the

blog Excerpts of last week’s posts to Politics & Policy, The Bulletin’s Salem weblog on state government.

Parties pull budgetview switcheroo • Posted Monday by Nick Budnick It seems like a simple but important question: Is Gov. John Kitzhaber planning to spend $1.2 billion more in his proposed budget than the state is spending in the current biennium — or $5.6 billion less?

Sounds like an easy one, right?

In Salem, though, the answer depends on whom you ask — and which part of the budget they’re looking at.

In recent weeks, House Republican Leader Kevin Cameron, echoed by others in his party, has downplayed talk that Oregon faces cuts. “In reality, the Legislature will have $1.2 billion more to spend in 2011-13 than it did in the previous biennium. This will make for an increase, not a reduction, in general fund spending,” he wrote in a widely circulated recent op-ed.

The general fund is the nearly one-quarter slice of the overall budget pie that comes from corporate and personal income taxes. It is also the piece of the pie over which lawmakers have the most control.

Cameron’s claim is accurate: The proposed budget projects the general fund to jump from about $13.5 billion to about $14.7 billion, about a 9 percent increase.

But some in the other party — as House Democratic Leader Dave Hunt, D-Gladstone did earlier this month — say it’s misleading to focus on the general fund number. Hunt and his colleagues instead point at the state’s “allfunds” budget — in other words, the entire budget pie — which includes fees, tuition, lottery and federal funds.

By that measure, overall state spending will drop from $60.9 billion in 2009-11 to about $55.3 billion in the next budget, a more than 9 percent decrease. …

Some in both parties said the other party’s preferred number was misleading.

Top med fed boosts Oregon reform push • Posted Thursday by Nick Budnick One of the question marks in Gov. John Kitzhaber’s plan to reform Oregon’s health care system has been whether Uncle Sam will look kindly on it. Kitzhaber says his ability to preserve health care for low-income Oregonians while cutting hundreds of millions in spending relies on receiving permission — in the form of a waiver — from the federal government.

and unauthorized use of a vehicle go to school.

For many kids, this is their last chance to get an education and reintegrate into society.

But proposed state budget cuts could mean two months without school for these young offenders, making their schooling another casualty of the state’s budget crisis. Gov. John Kitzhaber and state lawmakers are attempting to close Oregon’s projected $3.5 billion shortfall.

A day at the detention center At 8 a.m. one day earlier this month, class had just begun, and two boys and a girl sat quietly reading at their desks.

All were wearing navy blue, gray or dark green sweats and the same blackand-white sneakers.

So on Wednesday night, as Kitzhaber (above left) met with more than 40 others working on the health care reform plan, the telephone participation of Dr. Donald Berwick, a top Medicare and Medicaid official for the federal government (right), was a very good sign.

Even better was what he said. As reported by the Salem StatesmanJournal, Berwick called Oregon a “beacon” and encouraged Kitzhaber’s group to lead the way for the country.

Berwick has been a lightning rod for Republican attacks in Washington, D.C. But given the pressure the federal official has already received from Sen. Ron Wyden — including questioning at a Senate hearing last November on this topic — Kitzhaber has to be encouraged that Berwick is now publicly rooting the state on.

In the back, another girl sat at her desk, coloring pictures. Dozens of colored-in pictures of dragons, roses and skulls, along with a few original drawings and collages, covered the classroom walls.

Just getting some kids with mental illnesses and severe behavioral problems into the classroom each day is an accomplishment, said Chuck Puch, the Deschutes County Juvenile Community Justice facility manager.

This girl’s behavioral problems have made it difficult for her to be in class, Puch said. “What we break down is, ‘Can I get her to be in the classroom and just color?’”

Possible ripple effect: Displacing lower-level offenders worries locals

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

Many of Oregon’s youngest criminals could be released back into their communities earlier than planned following cuts proposed in the budget plan, which would reduce by 425 — nearly half — the number of beds in the Oregon Youth Authority’s “close custody,” or locked, facilities.

That would force the OYA to send young offenders back to community placements: residential programs, such as J Bar J Boys Ranch, and specially trained foster parents.

If some kids must be placed in the community sooner than planned, the OYA has a method to assess these offenders and release those who are less likely to commit more crimes, agency spokeswoman Ann Snyder said. Some of the crimes that could land a youth in the authority’s custody are murder, rape and arson, she said.

“Oregon Youth Authority is the part of the system that takes the worst of the worst,” Snyder said, but there are still different levels of risk that individuals in that group will reoffend.

Businesses, job seekers: Get your own librarian

By Devon Williams The Bulletin

If you don’t know it, then “Book-a-Librarian.”

Librarians are now equipped to help you with your job search.

They have been given additional training and databases with résumé wizard features. The Deschutes Public Library system can offer career help along with several other services in its Book-a-Librarian program.

For those who want to craft small-business plans, look up consumer research or even explore information on their medical conditions, librarians are ready to serve. The program seeks to change the perception that librarians only do story time and locate books. Their

new services, with the exception of the résumé tools, are actually repackaged old services.

Librarians have helped businesses find market data that identify potential customers before, said Glenna Rhodes, community services manager. “It’s not that we haven’t provided these resources before. We just haven’t gone out of our way to promote it.”

Five projects in Central Oregon were awarded nearly $1.3 million in state transportation funds earlier this month. The money will help extend a bus route in Bend, add to a trail system in Madras and move the city of Bend closer to complying with the Americans With Disabilities Act. The grants are from a new state program that state officials created by redirecting a portion of Federal Highway Administration funds to non-highway transportation projects, according to a state document.

The city of Bend was awarded $308,500 for engineering and surveying work on sidewalks along 2.6 miles of South Third Street, from Franklin Avenue to Murphy Road. The project will put Bend closer to eventually installing 87 curb ramps in the area, which would help the city meet its obligations under a settlement with the U.S. Justice Department for not being compliant with Americans With Disabilities Act requirements.

“From what I’ve heard, it’s (from the) 1950s,” Bend Accessibility Manager Susan Duncan said of the infrastructure in this area. “It was installed under codes and different design criteria way back then.”

This grant will pay only for engineering for the project, and the city has not set aside money for construction. Duncan plans to apply for construction funding from the same grant program in the fall.

Approximately 3,600 people are employed at 260 businesses along this section of road, Duncan said.

“It says a lot about the importance of the project, I think, because there was a lot of intense competition for the funding,” Duncan said.

san Archibald discovered this service in January and asked Rhodes to help her identify potential customers for her product line. “She was extremely helpful and showed me how to use the databases,” Archibald said.

Book-a-Librarian officially launched Feb. 14, and within three days there was a businessrelated request. All the information that is shared with the librarian is private, Rhodes said.

Librarians typically have a master’s degree in library science, and the Deschutes librarians are no different. When you get an idea and don’t know where to go with it, as skilled researchers, they are equipped to offer assistance. “If they’re in the exploratory stage, the li-

brary is a great starting point,” Rhodes said.

The Book-a-Librarian program is by appointment and does not require a patron’s presence initially within the library.

According to Rhodes, those too busy to come in can maintain correspondence through e-mail or by phone.

The library has put up a billboard and is planning a 30-second television ad to advertise the service.

“People love libraries, but they may not use libraries,” Rhodes said. “Now libraries are coming to them.”

Devon Williams can be reached at 541-617-7818 or at dwilliams@bendbulletin.com.

Other projects funded The largest local grant will go to Madras, with $456,500 for a new segment of paved bicycle and pedestrian trails.

The trail will go from U.S. Highway 97 to state Highway 361, along Fairgrounds Road. It will also provide access to the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife’s youth fishing pond, which is under construction.

The project is a “vital trail segment” in the Willow Creek trail system, a loop that nearly circles Madras, said Sara Puddy, assistant to the city’s Public Works Department director.

The money will cover the cost of the project, which will probably get started in the fall, Puddy said.

Redmond will receive $236,000 to improve bicycle and pedestrian access to the Dry Canyon Trail on the city’s west side.

Highway 97 accident injures 8, one critically A three-vehicle crash Saturday afternoon on U.S. Highway 97 sent eight people to the hospital, including one man who suffered critical injuries.

The crash at about 3 p.m. shut down the highway in both directions for roughly two hours, and traffic backed up for seven miles, according to news releases from the Oregon Department of Transportation and the Oregon State Police.

At 3:10 p.m., Stacy Cordaway, 48, of Shingle Springs, Calif., was driving north in a 2006 Nissan truck when she lost control and slid sideways into the southbound lane, according to police.

Cordaway’s truck collided with a 1986 Suzuki sport utility vehicle driven by Herbert Kroshel, 41, of Salem.

The collision caused Kroshel’s Suzuki to go over a guardrail and down an embankment, while the Nissan hit a southbound 2006 Suzuki Samari sport utility vehicle driven by Leland Wilson, 55, of Tigard, according to the police.

Some of the people involved in the wreck were trapped inside their vehicles until emergency workers responded, according to the fire department.

At the time of the crash, it was snowing and the highway was covered with ice and snow, according to a news release from the Sunriver Service District Fire Department.

Kroshel suffered critical injuries and was taken by ambulance to St. Charles Bend. Kroshel was still listed in critical condition

By Abby Sewell Sunday evening.

The other seven people involved in the collision were also taken to St. Charles Bend, with non-lifethreatening injuries, according to the police.

3 from Santiam crash released from hospital The three survivors of a Friday afternoon crash near Santiam Junction on U.S. Highway 20 have been released from the hospital.

One man, John Patrick McDonald, 70, of Redmond, died Friday at St. Charles Bend from injuries suffered in the accident, according to the Oregon State Police. The hospital confirmed Saturday evening that McDonald’s wife, Joann McDonald, 66, had been treated and released. Two other people involved in the crash, Ran Floyd, 45, of La Pine, and Young Lee, 72, of Salem, were also treated and released from St. Charles Bend.

According to the state police, at about 1 p.m. Friday, Floyd was driving east and had just passed another vehicle when he lost control of his 2008 GMC Yukon.

Floyd’s vehicle collided head-on with a westbound 2003 GMC Yukon driven by John McDonald, police said.

At the time, the road was covered in packed snow and slush.

Floyd and passenger Lee were taken by ambulance to St. Charles Bend; Floyd suffered serious injuries. Two children in the back seat were not injured.

McDonald was taken to St. Charles Bend by air ambulance with critical injuries and later died. Joann McDonald was taken to St. Charles Bend by ambulance with serious injuries.

PORTLAND — This is a city that has staked out its independence from the federal government loudly and often.

Staffers of then-President George H.W. Bush nicknamed Portland “Little Beirut� for the virulent protests that greeted him whenever he made an appearance there. When his son George W. Bush came to town in 2003, the mayor sent a bill to the White House in an unsuccessful attempt to recoup more than $100,000 in police overtime and extra expenses the city spent to keep angry demonstrators in check.

But when it comes to counterterrorism, the city may be on the brink of relinquishing its one-of-a-kind stance.

In 2005, Portland became the only major metropolitan area in the country to withdraw its police officers from the Joint Terrorism Task Force, an intelligence-gathering partnership between local and federal law enforcement.

On Thursday, the City Council is scheduled to vote on whether to reverse its decision in the wake of a high-profile terrorism scare in the city.

At the time of the 4-1 vote to withdraw, city officials cited concerns about lack of local oversight over the two Portland officers assigned to the task force.

Then-Mayor Tom Potter, a former police officer and chief, said he feared participation in federal investigations would put the local officers in the position of violating state laws that forbid collecting and

The issue remained dormant until November, when Mohamed Osman Mohamud, a 19-year-old naturalized U.S. citizen from Somalia, was arrested and charged with plotting to set off a bomb during the city’s Christmas treelighting ceremony in Pioneer Courthouse Square.

The “bomb� in question was a dud supplied to Mohamud by undercover FBI agents, and federal officials said Portland’s residents were never in serious danger. But the incident reignited the debate over the city’s involvement in federal terrorism investigations.

Portland’s withdrawal from the task force was never complete.

The police chief remains part of the task force’s executive group, receiving periodic briefings, and

Portland police officers can be pulled in to work with the FBI on a case-by-case basis. But the day-today working relationship is gone.

In the case of the Christmas tree bomb plot, the FBI briefed Portland’s police chief about the investigation in September, when it was nearly at an end. The chief had to sign a nondisclosure form, and Mayor Sam Adams was not notified of the case until three hours after Mohamud’s arrest.

If Portland’s two officers had still been assigned to the task force, police would have been in the loop on the investigation from the start, said Arthur Balizan, special agent in charge of the FBI’s Portland division.

National authorities and activists are watching Portland’s decision with interest. Top officials from the FBI and Justice Department on one side and the American Civil Liberties Union

on the other pleaded their respective cases before the Portland City Council on Tuesday.

Law enforcement officials cited the potential for Portland’s airport, river port and other facilities to be used to launch terrorist attacks that would strike elsewhere in the nation.

U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder wants to see Portland rejoin the task force, said Todd Hinnen, deputy assistant attorney general for the Justice Department’s law and policy office.

Dwight Holton, U.S. attorney for the district of Oregon, agreed with him. “This is not just about protecting Portland; this is about protecting people in communities throughout the world,� he told the council.

Holton said Portland’s withdrawal left his colleagues elsewhere in the country “surprised and confused.�

But the move was typical of Portland’s fiercely independent spirit. “We’re not afraid to stake out what we think is best for us and best for others, and sometimes that means that we’re not making decisions like other cities,� said Adams, who was on the council in 2005.

Adams said he voted to pull back from the task force because he distrusted the Bush administration and was disturbed by provisions in the Patriot Act. He wouldn’t say how he plans to vote this time around.

It’s unclear which way the vote will go. In the meantime, onlookers will have to wonder whether the city affectionately or derogatorily nicknamed the People’s Republic of Portland will choose to “keep Portland weird� when it comes to homeland security.

O B Kyron’s mother seeks answers from stepmom ROSEBURG — The mother of missing Oregon boy Kyron Horman and others are distributing fliers urging the public to ask the boy’s stepmother where he is.

The fliers are being handed out in Roseburg, where the stepmother, Terri Moulton Horman, is from. The biological mother, Desiree Young, was here Saturday to unveil the fliers, which have photos of her son and his stepmother. Investigators have focused on Terri Horman but haven’t called her a suspect.

Kyron has been missing since June 4, when the 8-year-old disappeared after a science fair at his elementary school.

2 hikers rescued from cliff at Tillamook Head The Coast Guard says it has rescued two hikers from a cliff at Tillamook Head near Astoria.

Petty Officer Zach Crawford says a woman had fallen about

60 feet from the cliff Sunday morning.

A Coast Guard rescue swimmer was lowered to the woman.

She was secured in a harness, hoisted into a helicopter and taken to Seaside Airport, where local medics treated her for minor scrapes and bruises.

The helicopter crew later returned to rescue the male hiker.

He was not injured.

election night.

In an October speech to a friendly audience at a meeting of Washington County Democrats, Wu lashed out at the media. He talked his way past a security checkpoint to campaign for votes at the airport, according to reports.

Wu said in a statement that the 2010 race was “an intense campaign” that he endured while trying to raise his two children and deal with the death of his father.

He apologized to his staff and constituents and said he had sought “professional medical care.” A spokesman for House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi declined to comment on Wu’s latest situation.

Wu, a 55-year-old Yale Law School graduate born in Taiwan, was first elected to the U.S. House in 1998. He’s maintained a low profile in Congress, save for his occasional appearances in unflattering news stories.

Just weeks before the 2004 election, Wu apologized for “in-

excusable behavior” after reports surfaced that a former girlfriend once claimed that he tried to sexually assault her while both were students at Stanford University in the 1970s. No charges were filed in the case, but Wu’s opponent seized on the allegation to argue he was unfit for office.

Three years later, Wu’s remarks on the House floor that “there are Klingons in the White House” were roundly mocked in political circles and they’ve lived on in YouTube clips.

A number of factors will determine Wu’s political future if he decides to seek re-election in his district covering northwestern Oregon and the western part of the Portland metro area. He’ll have plenty of time to repair his image before the 2012 election, but the biggest factor is outside his control. State lawmakers will redraw the congressional district boundaries to reflect population shifts documented in the 2010 census.

Reorganize the university system

T

he Oregon Legislature can take money that students and their families pay for tuition and spend it on pretty much whatever else it wants. The state even takes the interest

earned on tuition money.

That needs to change.

The bill in the Legislature to do that is Senate Bill 242. The Oregon University System would get more autonomy to set and spend its tuition and manage its programs. In return, the Legislature could set performance goals for the schools.

Right now, the Legislature sets tuition rates and basically tells Oregon’s colleges and universities how the money should be spent. There are thousands of line items in the budget dictating how the schools should spend.

What financial commitment do the universities get from the state?

A dwindling one. For all the control the state has, state funding has dropped some 16 percent over the 20 years ending in 2009, according to The Oregonian.

In December, there was a clear example of how the Legislature controls tuition money. Because of enrollment above projections, Oregon schools had $17 million extra in tuition money. They couldn’t use that, though, to add more classes or other programs to meet demand. When they put in a request to do so, the Ways and Means Committee did not take action. At least the Legislature didn’t take the money, which it has done in the past.

The bill does not completely sever state control. Schools still have to comply with state public records laws, auditing requirements and ethics regulations.

Most importantly, the bill requires accountability. The Legislature could set benchmarks for things like time to graduate, access for Oregon students, degrees and even degrees needed in the state. That would ensure that Oregon’s university system would be one Oregonians could be proud of.

Another critical issue is what the bill would mean for students and their families paying tuition. If the schools get more freedom to set tuition, what stops them from jacking it up?

The Legislature can punish the schools. It could and should set one of its benchmarks as affordability.

If schools don’t meet the goal, state funding could be dropped further.

Becky Johnson, vice president of Oregon State University-Cascades Campus, also told us the current proposal is that half the tuition committee that recommends tuition levels for a school would be made up of students.

It’s not just the state’s schools that are behind this bill. The Oregon Business Association, the Oregon Restaurant and Lodging Association and Associated Oregon Industries support it. They recognize how it will help Oregon’s schools and help them.

So where is the opposition going to come from?

The bill is ultimately about power.

It asks legislators to vote to lose some of their power to control the schools.

It asks legislators to vote to lose the ability and flexibility to take tuition money, or the interest on it, and spend it on something other than higher education.

But they should vote for it. Dollars for tuition should go to schools.

And the bill enables schools to manage their programs without being controlled by a line item from a legislator.

Folks who work in Salem will tell you that when it comes to K-12 education, there is no problem getting Oregonians to call their legislators and demand action. The push for higher education issues is a faint echo.

Let’s change that on SB 242. Call your legislators and tell them what you think.

The cost of solar T

here’s a nifty option on the website for the Redmond Airport. You can click through and track the performance of the airport’s solar panels.

Since the tracking of the panels began on Aug. 10 of last year, they have generated some 19,798 kilowatt hours of power, as of Friday afternoon. That’s enough, according to the website, to power 113 60-watt bulbs for one year, assuming the bulbs are used about eight hours a day.

Even better for the Redmond Airport, the airport only had to pay $27,500 to install the panels. The total cost was $550,000, but the rest was made up in federal and private grants, including $200,000 from Pacific Power’s Blue Sky program.

How much is Redmond Airport saving?

We can’t tell you exactly, but the

airport did pay, on average, 7 cents per kilowatt hour on its most recent bill. Multiply that by the power generated and you get roughly $1,386.

That’s for more than six months, but it would be about $231 a month. The cost might be less, because there are some sunny parts of the year not included in the first six months.

Think about what those numbers do indicate. How many months would it take for the Redmond Airport to make up what it paid — $27,500 divided by $231? That answer is 119 months. Almost 10 years.

That’s not too bad. Although, as we know, the cost of the project was really $550,000. That means 2,380 months, or about 198 years.

We know the benefits of solar panels at the airport can’t be measured simply by these rough calculations. We have plenty of time to think them up before it pays off.

My Nickel’s Worth Odd health rankings In a Feb. 10 letter, Philip E. Blatt accused Republican leadership of spreading misinformation for praising the quality of the American medical system. As proof that our system is not that good, he cited the last World Health Organization’s rankings of worldwide health care systems. These rankings placed Costa Rica 36th, the U.S. 37th, Slovenia 38th and Cuba 39th.

How can this be? Simple. The WHO study looked at many factors. Like any good left-leaning organization, it assigned high values to “equality” and “fairness”: Can a nation’s poorest and wealthiest get the exact same care? In the U.S., the answer is, not really. Our poorest, through various resources, have access to very good care. Our wealthiest can afford the world’s best care. In contrast, Cuba’s system is more equal and fair. Every citizen, rich or poor, has similar access to the same lousy care. Thus the odd rankings.

Regarding the specific issues people care most about, like responsiveness, quality and individual choice, the U.S. ranked ... you guessed it, number one.

No matter your economic situation, where would you prefer your child be treated for a life-threatening illness: Costa Rica, Slovenia or Cuba, where there is more “equality” and “fairness,” or the U.S. because of its overall excellence?

The spreading of misinformation is by those who want to radically alter a good system — and in so doing ruin it — in pursuit of some unattainable utopian fantasy. To believe big government involvement will miraculously improve care while lowering costs is at

best naive. It will do neither, and likely do the opposite of both.

Dangers of heroin

Fishing for speeders

I was touched by Nelda Lindsey’s letter about her son’s friend dying of a heroin overdose. It is very troubling indeed that there are young people in our community dying from heroin use, and most Central Oregonians are unaware of this growing threat.

The Bulletin ran an excellent article about heroin in April 2010; however, the public needs to be kept abreast of the problem. Overdose statistics can be reported by local media without identifying individuals or violating HIPAA rules.

When we think of heroin addiction, most of us conjure up images of scarylooking people in dark alleys. The fact is, heroin addiction, or any addiction for that matter, can happen to virtually anyone, and it runs across all socioeconomic levels. There’s evidence of a link between increased heroin use and the increasing abuse of prescription pain killers, such as Oxycontin. “Oxy” is a highly addictive opiate, and abuse can lead to heroin, a cheaper and more readily available alternative. With high risk for overdose, sadly, it’s been said there are no old heroin addicts.

The Meth Action Coalition, which is no longer just about methadone, is now including information on heroin, and other drugs, in our education/prevention talks in local schools. Along with parents and teachers, we are attempting to help instill a deep-seated value in our young people that using these dangerous drugs has got to be a line they never cross — not even once.

Recently I read a letter from Paul Richins Jr., from California. In his letter, Mr. Richins complained about being stopped, by his own admission, for going faster than the speed limit. He said he was going “no faster or slower than anyone else.” The basis for his letter was to complain about being singled out because he was from out of state.

I just have one thing to say about that: “Bull!” Yes, he was from out of state, but the only reason he was singled out was because he was exceeding the posted speed limit.

Let me explain something to Mr. Richins and others who might have complained that they were going no faster or slower than everyone else and got caught, and why didn’t the officer pick on someone else.

Have you ever gone fishing? Did you catch every fish in the lake? Working traffic is a lot like watching a school of fish go by. Some will get caught, but the vast majority will not. You don’t have enough lines or hooks to catch everything. It’s impossible to do.

Mr. Richins was just one of the fish caught that day by officers in their “fishing hole.” So quit whining. If you are going to go faster than the posted speed limit, you’re taking the chance of getting caught and getting a ticket.

Also, no, officers are not under a quota to write a certain number of tickets.

They can write as few, or as many, as they want during their shifts.

When do we really get around to taking on health care?

By Archie Bleyer Bulletin guest columnist

L

ast week, I received a phone call from a firm in Portland that was not identified by the caller. As a DEFEATcancer director at St. Charles, I was asked by the caller to sign letters addressed to Sen. Wyden and Rep. Wu that she would provide for me to send to our elected congressional members. The letter would request that they block our Food and Drug Administration from revoking its provisional approval of a drug from the U.S. market.

What I encountered was a real-time, in-our-backyard example of the power of the lobby system in the U.S., how emotion can trump science, why health care has become so expensive and how politicians can be caught between the devil and the deep blue sea. Let me explain.

The drug is Avastin. It was approved by the FDA for treatment of cancer of the colorectum, lung, kidney, brain and

breast. The approval for breast cancer was conditional, however, since it was based on the results of a single clinical trial that showed, at the time, an average five-month delay to worsening of the disease but with no associated survival benefit. The drug company has since been selling the drug at a rate of $8 billion per year, $2 billion for breast cancer.

Meanwhile, three additional clinical trials of the drug in patients with advanced breast cancer were found to show no benefit in survival. With longer follow-up of the original study, the fivemonth delay in disease progression disappeared. Also, claims by the drug company of improvement in patient-reported outcomes in disease-related symptoms and quality of life were not apparent in the data it submitted to the FDA. In addition to the lack of benefit, the drug was found to be more toxic than originally reported, with a 26 percent increase in severe adverse or life-threaten-

IN MY VIEW ing adverse event and drug-related death.

The side effects included stroke, hypertension, heart failure, bleeding, nausea, sores of the mucous membranes, poorer wound healing, blood clots, fever with low blood counts and brain toxicities.

Just recently, another analysis showed a threefold higher rate of fatal adverse events in breast cancer patients treated with the drug in combination with standard chemotherapy. Then there’s the “wallet toxicity” created by one of the most expensive cancer drugs in history, at an average of $88,000 per patient.

A committee of scientists, doctors and patient advocates external to the FDA was convened by the FDA to review the additional data. After months of study and a day of additional testimony and review, the extramural committee voted 12 to one to recommend revocation of the breast cancer approval. After

more months of study and further input from the drug company, patients, other doctors and organizations supporting breast cancer patients, the FDA decided to remove the drug’s approval for breast cancer. After the FDA’s decision, another study, this time performed in patients with early breast cancer, showed that the drug neither increased the amount of tumor kill nor allowed more patients to have breast reconstruction (forming a new breast).

Yes, there are patients who genuinely believe that the drug did help them. In each instance that I have been able to examine, however, the patient also received other therapy (surgery, radiation, hormonal therapy and/or chemotherapy) that could explain the benefit. After all, we are blessed with many effective treatments for breast cancer. And the more it costs, the more effective it is expected to be, as elegantly shown by a study in students at M.I.T. of the placebo effect.

So, I am disquieted by the company’s

lobbying efforts to prevent a loss of its income by hiring firms in each state to petition me, my colleagues and breast cancer patients and their families because they can afford to do so. It’s lobbying at its worst and symptomatic of what occurs in our country despite congressional efforts to prevent it. I object to exploiting emotion to suppress the truth (the survival data is as convincing as it can get) and ignoring recommendations by independent experts who have no investment in the drug or the company’s financial stake.

When will we realize that hype and hope cloud objectivity and too often lead to poor choices? When are we really going to tackle the escalating health care dollar that, despite the health care reform act passed a year ago, has not slowed down? And when do we really dismantle the lobby-run system that is crippling our democracy and government?

Detention Continued from B1 The staff is now trying to bring in a tutor who was working with the girl before she was placed in detention.

After reading, the kids moved on to tackle individual coursework. Franklin stopped at a teenage boy’s desk to see how he was doing.

“Can you tell me the difference between exports and imports?”

Franklin asked.

“I don’t know,” the boy said quietly. Keeping her voice low, so as not to disturb the other students, Franklin launched into an explanation based on iPod manufacturers.

Falling way behind Often, the kids who end up in juvenile detention centers have already fallen way behind in school, say teachers and other people who work with them. Many have learning disabilities or mental illnesses, and some haven’t been to school in a while.

Year-round schooling is supposed to help kids succeed in school, reintegrate into the community and avoid committing more crimes. Now, as officials seek to close the state’s budget shortfall, juvenile justice education programs face funding cuts, and detention centers might have to cancel class for two months each year.

Kitzhaber’s proposed budget would cut education funding by 45 percent for kids who committed crimes and are incarcerated in county juvenile detention and Oregon Youth Authority fa-

NEAL TAYLOR

7-time national casting champ taught generations of anglers

By Steve Chawkins Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — For Neal Taylor, fishing wasn’t limited to weekends or, for that matter, water. On one of Santa Barbara, Calif.’s busiest streets, the seven-time national casting champion showed a friend just how it’s done, lofting his line into an intersection when the light turned red and yanking it back when traffic resumed.

“I thought, this guy is really funny,” said Bob Nunez, a dentist and one of Taylor’s closest fishing buddies. “I thought, I love this guy.”

Taylor died Feb. 14 at his Santa Barbara home. He was 78 and, according to family members, had congestive heart failure.

Just days before his death, he was distributing posters for an upcoming trout derby at Lake Cachuma, a Santa Barbara County mountain reservoir where, from boats plying quiet coves, he taught countless neophytes the joys of the outdoors.

“There are 4,000 school kids who would come through on field trips every year, and he regaled them with tales,” said his wife, Linda. “There are so many people around town who’d come up to him and say, ‘I remember you from that boat trip when I was 5’ — and these are people whose kids are taking the same trip now.”

A big man with a striking resemblance to comedian Jonathan Winters, Taylor could spin tales so masterfully that pals on fishing trips would immediately ask to hear them again. Some were bawdy stories perfect for a Montana campfire, but he also gave a natural actor’s intensity to great moments from a life with

cilities. The reduction would be $11.5 million for the 2011-12 biennium.

The governor’s budget would cut all state education funds by 3 percent, to $5.56 billion for the biennium, The Bulletin has reported.

Kitzhaber also proposed reducing Oregon Youth Authority’s “close custody” beds — those in locked facilities — by 425, so part of the youth corrections education cut would come from OYA having fewer youths in custody to educate.

The governor’s office did not respond to requests for comment on why it proposed these specific cuts.

“If the number of youths goes down in close custody, there will be less educational costs, but we don’t know yet what that number will be,” said Ann Snyder, a spokeswoman for the Oregon Youth Authority.

Cutting 2 months The proposed cuts could translate into two months without schooling for young offenders, because the Oregon Department of Education has proposed reducing their annual instructional days from 220 to 180, said department spokeswoman Susanne Smith.

The state average for instructional days, including for kids who are not incarcerated, is roughly 170 days, Smith said.

However, staff who work with young offenders said this population needs year-round school, and they are searching for alternatives to avoid going two months without classes.

“We’re dealing with the worst education population,” said Puch,

Abstract sculptor Gussow, 92, dies

Chuck Allen, a champion of surfing, dies at 74

By Dennis Hevesi

Chuck Allen, who helped found two nonprofit organizations that worked to bring respect and legitimacy to surfing and snowboarding, died on Feb. 14 in Redlands, Calif. He was 74 and lived in Yucaipa.

The cause was emphysema, his son Robert said.

Allen, a volunteer high school surfing coach in Lake Forest, Calif., disliked surfing’s dropout image, so in 1978 he founded the National Scholastic Surfing Association with four other coaches to unite its disparate competitive bodies.

The National Scholastic Surfing Association requires athletes to stay in school and maintain at least a 2.0 grade point average to compete, and it provides added incentives like scholarships and paths to corporate sponsorship.

A decade later, Allen applied his experience to snowboarding by incorporating the United States Amateur Snowboard Association in 1988.

At the time, snowboarding was banned at most ski resorts; by 1998, it was an Olympic sport.

New York Times News Service

Los Angeles Times ile photo

Expert fly fisherman and naturalist Neal Taylor, pictured in 1995 with his 2-year-old granddaughter, has died. The 7-time national casting champion taught novice anglers.

Roy Gussow, an abstract sculptor whose polished stainless-steel works with swooping contours gleam in public squares and corporate spaces, died Feb. 11 in Queens. He was 92 and had lived and worked in Long Island City, Queens, for nearly half a century. The cause was a heart attack, his daughter Jill Gussow said.

New Yorkers passing by the Family Court building in Lower Manhattan may not have known Gussow’s name, but they were probably struck by “Three Forms,” his 8-foot-high sculpture on a 2-foot granite base. (The sculpture had stood outside the courthouse since 1974 but was recently taken down for renovation.)

The work is a blend of three distinct flowing shapes. What is striking about it — as with many of Gussow’s sculptures — is its mirrorlike finish, which casts reflections from all directions as the spectator moves around it. “I strive for lyrical equilibrium among distinctly different elements, and I like to think I am suggesting optimism, beauty and well-being,” Gussow said of “Three Forms.”

Large-scale pieces by Gussow stand in more than a dozen cities, including Tulsa, Okla., Rochester, N.Y., and Hartford, Conn., and on the campus of North Carolina State University.

Born in Brooklyn on Nov. 12, 1918, Roy Gussow wanted to be a farmer and went to Farmingdale State College on Long Island but changed course and earned a degree in landscape architecture in 1938.

fishing at its heart.

Taylor helped Jimmy Carter read a trout stream, figuring out just where and when the fish were likely to bite. He taught Nancy and Ronald Reagan how to cast on a pond at their ranch near Santa Barbara. When he was an Air Force recruit, he was summoned by his commander in chief — President Dwight Eisenhower — for a few days of instruction on the Platte River in Colorado.

When Ike slumped over as

the two were watching a sunset, Taylor, alarmed, asked what was wrong. “There isn’t a day I don’t think about those young men at Normandy,” Eisenhower replied.

Taylor was born Sept. 17, 1932, in Pasadena, Calif., and was raised near Santa Barbara in Summerland, where his father, Walter Taylor, ran a store. Walter, who would fish with his writer friend Zane Grey, passed his passion for the outdoors down to his son.

centers fill up with former OYA inmates, kids who commit more minor offenses might not face the consequences of their actions early enough to prevent them from committing more crimes, said Kevin Bradley, youth programs manager for the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council. Bend-La Pine Schools contracts with COIC to provide education services in county detention.

These kids are smart, Bradley said, and they will realize

they don’t face repercussions for breaking the law. “Then all of the sudden, you have a real problem on your hands,” Bradley said.

“I’ve seen kids before when we had budget crises, where they get caught and think nothing’s going to happen. They get in a mindset where they’re untouchable.”

Offenders in OYA custody would be placed in the community, not in county juvenile detention facilities, Snyder said.

“However, if the youths who

are released commit new crimes, the first place they go is to county detention,” she said.

As of Thursday, the OYA had 58 youths from Deschutes County in its custody at locked facilities and in community placement facilities, Snyder said. It had 18 young offenders from Crook County and 24 from Jefferson County.

sitting in an empty pod of the detention center. “I average 40 intakes a month. That’s like 80 kids that won’t get served.”

These inmates would not receive education testing or the opportunity to earn credits toward a high school diploma. Class time is also an important part of establishing a routine for kids who have not attended school for a while, since they have to wake up, go to breakfast and then head to the classroom, Puch said.

“You’re looking at the population that needs it more than anybody,” Puch said.

The Oregon Juvenile Department Directors Association, of which Puch is chairman, has discussed four-day school weeks as a better option, Puch said.

Bend-La Pine Schools contracts with the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council to provide education services in county detention. Kevin Bradley, youth programs manager for the council, said detention provides an opportunity to reach some kids who have failed at other schools.

“You do have a captive audience here,” Bradley said of detention centers. Some kids finally start to experience educational success, earn some high school credits and feel better about themselves, Bradley said. When they are released, these kids know they can do the same thing in other schools.

state agency expects the kids to work toward high school or GED diplomas.

“Youths may stay with us for just nine months, 10 months, or for several years,” Snyder said.

“While they’re there, they need to be participating in both treatment and education. What research shows very clearly is that providing the right combination of treatment and education is the most effective method for reducing recidivism. Education is a key component because it prepares the youth to succeed when they’re out in the community.”

The current two-year contract for COIC to provide education services at the Deschutes County detention center is $430,000. Bradley said his best guess is the contract could be reduced to $300,000 for the next biennium, which could force him to reduce teachers “to 80 percent time,” and kids would have approximately 176 instructional days.

are the same as for any teacher — “to help kids become productive and educated” — but she also enjoys the variety of teaching several subjects and working with a class of students that is constantly changing.

“Here you get to work with a variety of subjects, a variety of age groups,” Franklin said. “When I come in in the morning, I don’t know how many kids I’m going to have.”

Kris Schofield, who has taught at the detention center for roughly the same amount of time as Franklin, said she previously worked as a teacher and principal at the Oregon National Guard Youth ChalleNGe program. The residential high school serves kids who are struggling or have dropped out of school.

“I was just really drawn to the other side of the coin, where the kids don’t have the family support and are experiencing the consequences of their actions,” Schofield said.

She added that some kids at the detention center have supportive families. A sign-in sheet in the detention center lobby shows mothers, fathers and grandparents regularly stop by to visit some of the inmates.

Many kids start reading more while they are at the county detention facility, especially in the evenings, Franklin said.

“A lot of the kids here do not spend a significant amount of time reading” before they are incarcerated, Franklin said. “Personally, I think if you can read, you can do anything.”

For teachers, each day is different The two teachers at Deschutes County juvenile detention said they were motivated to teach there because every day is different, and because they wanted to work with kids who face more challenges than the average student in outside schools.

Franklin has taught at the detention center since July 2007, which was right after she received her teacher certification. Previously, Franklin worked as an employment counselor helping people find jobs for 11 years and taught evening English classes for non-native speakers.

Grants Continued from B1 That project includes construction of a “bike-friendly staircase” at Southwest Pumice Avenue, and the design for a similar staircase to the trail at Northwest Maple Avenue, according to a state list of the projects.

The Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council was awarded two grants totaling $289,100 for two transportation projects. A portion of the funds — $194,100 — will go to the Cascades East Transit regional bus system, operated by the council, for transit projects in Redmond and Bend.

In Redmond, Cascades East Transit plans to build a downtown transit hub with four bus shelters on Southwest Deschutes Avenue, in front of the Redmond Library. The hub is expected to open in the fall, and will mostly be used as a transfer station.

In Bend, Cascades East Transit will use the money for bus shelters, bicycle racks and other improvements necessary to extend Bend Area Transit’s Route 2, according to a project description from the state.

Cascades East Transit merged last year with Bend Area Transit, or BAT. Route 2 is mostly in southwest Bend.

The funds could also lead to more park-and-ride lots.

The council will use $95,000 to “provide preliminary design and cost information” for park-and-ride facilities in areas where people face longdistance commutes, according to state documents.

Where Buyers And Sellers Meet

Jordan DiBiase, 3, retrieves a puck out of a puddle that formed on a skating pond last week in Yarmouth, Maine. Temperatures in the mid40s made for springlike conditions in the middle of winter here.

That weird weather may be out the window: The National Weather Service posted winter storm watches or warnings from New England to Montana, with blizzard warnings over the Dakotas and Minnesota. “Presidents Day will be a great day for shoveling snow,” Weather Channel meteorologist Mark Ressler told USA Today.

Meanwhile, in Arizona, cities like Flagstaff — where bicycles could be seen blanketed with more than a foot of snow on the Northern Arizona University campus Sunday, below — were reported to have received more than a foot of snow over the weekend. Unusually low temperatures blew across the greater Phoenix area, forcing some events to close and people indoors. And to the west, Southern California was drying out after being pelted by two weekend rainstorms that left snow in mountains as low as 2,500 feet.

JOHN DAY FOSSIL BEDS

Park house shows off energy efficiency

IdaTech in Bend marks a ‘turning point’ in hydrogen fuel cell technology and the company’s future

By Kate Ramsayer The Bulletin

A small house with a sloped roof, tucked near the base of one of the earth-toned striped hills that gives the Painted Hills Unit of the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument its name, is more than just home to the park ranger.

It’s also a mini power-generating facility that puts more electricity into the grid than it consumes.

Additionally, it demonstrates energy-efficiency possibilities for the National Park Service, according to NPS officials.

With solar panels on the house generating enough power for the home, a future electric vehicle for the park ranger and the visitor information kiosk, the Painted Hills Unit is now an energy-neutral unit of the monument, said Jim Hammett, superintendent of the Fossil Beds.

The National Park Service’s director has challenged parks to be as energy efficient as possible, Hammett said, and to try to make park operations carbon neutral — not burning any fossil fuels.

“That’s a very difficult thing to obtain,” Hammett said. “If we took and started with a baby step of a small unit, it seemed possible.”

The Painted Hills building is the first National Park Service house to be net-zero energy, said Stephanie Burkhart, spokeswoman with the agency’s Pacific West Region.

But another project, an intern center in the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area, built around the same time last winter, was the first facility that was not specifically a house to meet the criteria, she said.

At the Fossil Beds, Hammett said he started looking at designs of houses that were net-zero energy a couple of years ago — not using any more power than that created through solar panels or other renewable resources.

ydrogen technology with the greatest potential for replacing fossil fuels took a giant leap forward at Bend-based IdaTech with the manufacture and worldwide sales of a new generation of hydrogen fuel cells that generate electricity from a mixture of methanol and water, according to company officials.

Until now, use of hydrogen as an alternative to fossil fuels was hampered by the cost and bulkiness of heavy cylinders of compressed hydrogen gas used to fuel hydrogen fuel cells. But IdaTech broke through that barrier with the manufacture of its ElectraGen ME, which incorporates a built-in hydrogen fuel reformer that converts a mixture of methanol and water into hydrogen, according to Hal Koyama, IdaTech president and CEO. During the 13 years since IdaTech was founded in Bend, Koyama said the company and its European owners have invested millions of dollars in research and development of hydrogen fuel cell technology, but the ElectraGen ME is the first combined hydrogen fuel cell/hydrogen fuel reformer where the manufacturing cost is low enough that each unit can be sold for a profit.

“This marks the turning point for IdaTech,” Koyama said. “The company hasn’t turned a profit yet, but the ElectraGen ME is the first model (of hydrogen fuel cell)

we’ve been able to build and sell at a profit.”

Koyama said the ElectraGen ME “is replacing 200year-old diesel engine technology.”

Another Bend company, Element One, also is on the cutting edge of hydrogen fuel technology creating hydrogen from a methanol-water mixture, and recently announced an agreement with a Chinese manufacturing company to build a hydrogen fuel reformer, but Koyama said IdaTech is the first to combine hydrogen fuel cells with hydrogen fuel reformers in one unit.

Since IdaTech began manufacturing the ElectraGen ME in Tijuana, Mexico, in December, Koyama said 800 of the units have been sold and delivered in more than 30 countries, and the company has a backlog of more than 10,000 orders from telecommunications companies. Those companies seek to replace noisy, carbonpuffing diesel generators used for backup power supply for cell towers with quiet hydrogen fuel cell units designed in Bend.

Scientific groups call for new sources of rare earths

By Matthew L. Wald New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON —Technologies for green or renewable-energy batteries, solar cells and advanced electric motors are dependent on critical chemical elements that are threatened by major supply shortages, two influential American scientific groups said in a report Friday.

And China’s chokehold on the chemical elements, known as rare earths, is just one example, the groups said. The report called for the U.S. government to research and develop new sources for a broad range of critical materials and to more closely monitor the supply of and demand for them.

The study’s release follows the recent introduction of a Senate bill, consistent with the report’s recommendations, meant to ensure that the United States can globally compete in emerging energy industries. That bill, by Sen. Mark Udall, D-Colo.,

also calls for federal money to train people to work in the advanced materials field.

Late last year, the U.S. Department of Energy filed a report sounding similar warnings.

Many of the materials in question are now traded in relatively small volumes, but are becoming increasingly critical to the production of clean energy technologies, according to the report by the American Physical Society and the Materials Research Society.

The materials in question, with names like indium, gallium and tellurium, until a few years ago were mainly “laboratory curiosities,” Thomas Graedel, a Yale professor and a member of the report committee, said Friday. But shortages of those and other elements could slow the deployment of green technologies, he said.

The threat to supplies comes not only from geopolitics, as with China’s restricting exports of rare earth elements, the report said. More fundamental-

Solar cells are among the many technologies that rely on critical chemical elements known as rare earths. Major supply shortages could hinder the United States’ ability to globally compete in emerging energy industries.

ly, it said, global production of many vital materials is simply not keeping pace with demand.

For example, tellurium, now obtained as a byproduct of copper mining, is useful in producing a certain kind of thin-film solar cell. But the amount of tellurium required for one gigawatt of solar cells — about equal to the power output of a single large nuclear plant — would be approximately twice the entire world’s production of that element in recent years, the report said.

Because the copper business on which tellurium is piggybacked was about $80 billion in 2009, while the tellurium market was but a tiny fraction of that — close to $30 million — it is unlikely that producers will expand copper mines simply to yield more tellurium, the report said. But copper producers might be open to changing the processing system over time, to get higher tellurium yields, the report said, if the scientific techniques were developed for doing so.

Mom’s paranoia damages Chewbacca to make roaring her daughter’s self-esteem return in ‘Clone Wars’ finale

Oregon AutoSource

DEAR ABBY with a licensed psychotherapist.

You have an entire upbringing by a woman with a damaged personality to overcome. The fact that she couldn’t love you does not mean you are unlovable. And the sooner you are able to accept that, the more lovable you will be because you will like yourself more.

Dear Abby: Ten years ago, I was suddenly widowed after many years of marriage. Because I was totally “available,” I became very involved with my children and grandchildren. I did not date.

About a year ago, that changed. I met “Gerald,” a man who makes me very happy. We enjoy dinners together, dancing and travel. We spend three nights a week together — usually at my place.

My brothers and friends are happy for me, but my daughters have not accepted him. They are civil in his presence, but in private they put him down. Their objections are: Gerald is more reserved than their father was, he takes up a lot of my time, that I’m “acting like a schoolgirl,” and the sleepovers set a bad example for the grandkids. (They are not present when this occurs.)

I have told my daughters repeatedly how happy I am and how hurtful I find their comments. I refuse to listen to their negative comments, but they

always come up. I don’t want to alienate them and possibly have my time with my grandkids limited, but Gerald is going to be in my life for a while.

Any advice?

— Gerald’s “Girl” Dear Gerald’s “Girl”: As an adult, you have the right to live your life as you choose.

Because you have already told your daughters their comments are hurtful, it’s time to stand your ground more strongly.

Your grandchildren will not be shocked that Gerald is spending nights with you if their parents do not discuss it with them or in front of them.

They’ll be off doing their own thing as teenagers and, much as they love you, you will not be the focus of their attention.

If your daughters threaten to punish you by limiting your time with the grandkids, let it be their problem. But do not give in to the treatment they are giving you because it is unfair and uncalled-for.

Chewie, is that you? In this case, the answer is a resounding “Rrrrrrrowwwwr,” which we’re fairly certain means “yes.” Chewbacca, the wild and wooly Wookiee who fought at Han Solo’s side through the three original “Star Wars” movies, will appear in the two-part season finale of “Star Wars: The Clone Wars,” the Cartoon Network animated series, with some assistance from Peter Mayhew, the actor who has portrayed the character in George Lucas’ live-action films.

“The powers that be needed Wookiees,” Mayhew said in a recent telephone interview from California, “and they found, right: ‘There’s a Wookiee waiting. We’ll see if he’s available.’ We were available.”

Though Lucasfilm Animation is keeping plot details under wraps, the “Clone Wars” finale, scheduled for April 1, will see Chewbacca cross paths with Ahsoka Tano, the Jedi apprentice to Anakin Skywalker (aka the future Darth Vader). To prepare for these episodes, titled “Padawan Lost” and “Wookiee Hunt,” the “Clone Wars” supervising director, Dave Filoni, and his team of animators and artists delved into the Lucasfilm archives for original Chewbacca reference materials and costumes, and invited Mayhew to their studios in Marin County, north of San Francisco,

Dear Abby: My stepmother — the only mother I have ever known — has been clinically diagnosed with a paranoid personality. This means she is suspicious, a martyr in any situation and flatly denies anything she thinks would cast her in a negative light. She can be very convincing. Once or twice she has even convinced me that my memories were wrong, although the facts were later corroborated by other family members.

People who can’t see through her “act” consider my mother to be a saint. Those who see her clearly know that she’s spiteful and vindictive. She has, for years, refused to take her prescribed medicine and won’t explore any other treatment. She insists the problem is with everyone else, especially me.

You have told others about the need to cut toxic friends and relatives out of their lives, but how does one do it? I know there will never be closure or a good relationship, but I can’t help wanting one.

I’m in my mid-30s and feel if my mother doesn’t love me, how can anyone else?

— Needs a Resolution in Georgia Dear Needs a Resolution: You have more than one problem.

Removing toxic individuals from one’s life is as easy as refusing to go along with their behavior.

Once you draw the line, those people will “help” you by cutting you out of theirs. Your mother’s mental illness may prevent her from loving anyone — not you specifically.

I hope you realize how important it is to discuss your feelings

to advise them on the process of bringing Chewie to digital life.

“They had maquettes and drawings,” said Mayhew, who stands 7 feet 3 inches and speaks in a voice that is much more melodic than his character’s. “But remember that Chewie has a peculiar walk which is unique to me. The whole body language is there, even the head movements and eye movements especially. When he’s mad, the eyes come open and the jaw starts working, and consequently you can’t do this unless you’ve actually got it on tape, to watch it, slow it down and animate it.”

Mayhew, who spent most of his life in Britain and now resides in Texas, developed the physical vocabulary of Chewbacca over the course of “Star Wars” (released in 1977) and its sequels “The Empire Strikes Back” and “Return of the Jedi,” all while wearing a costume made originally from knitted mohair and yak hair.

To portray Chewbacca for “The Clone Wars,” Mayhew was not required to don the outfit at all. (“I was doing it in my own clothing,” he said.) He did, however, record dialogue for the character, having learned over the years to emulate the blend of bear growls and other animal noises used to create Chewie’s voice.

Lucasfilm hasn’t said yet if Chewbacca will return for future episodes of “The Clone Wars,” but Mayhew said he was happy to have been so closely associated with the character for nearly 35 years.

“I always reckon that I’ve got the best job in the world,” he said, “purely because I know what I’m talking about, it’s a pleasure to talk, and you get paid for doing it.

So that can’t be bad, can it?”

At this point, nobody can reasonably argue with Mayhew about how Chewbacca should be played.

And, he added, “nobody wants their arms pulled out, either.”

Dutch Soprano Eva Maria Westbroek plays the title role in the Royal Opera House’s production of “Anna Nicole.”

Britain’s venerable Royal Opera raised some eyebrows when it announced that its next production would be based on the short, sensational life of Playboy Playmateturned-tabloid-superstar Anna Nicole Smith.

Bill Cooper The Associated Press

Anna Nicole opera a weirdly inspired, engrossing work

By Anthony Tommasini New York Times News Service

LONDON — An opera about Anna Nicole Smith: the American sex symbol, Playboy Playmate, hapless model, laughable actress and fortune-hunting wife of a billionaire nearly 63 years her senior? Commissioned by, no less, the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden? When the plans were announced, it sounded like a dubious idea, a tawdry way for a major opera house to look hip.

“Anna Nicole,” by the British composer Mark-Anthony Turnage and the British librettist Richard Thomas, finally had its premiere here at the Royal Opera on Thursday night before a sold-out house with standees everywhere. And it proved a weirdly inspired work, an engrossing, outrageous, entertaining and, ultimately, deeply moving new opera. This was an improbable triumph for Covent Garden.

Ideally, opera is supposed to be the ultimate collaborative art form, and “Anna Nicole” met that ideal. At 50, Turnage, whose modernist music is brashly accessible and run through with jazz, has written a pulsing, wild and, when called for, yearning score. Thomas, a musical theater lyricist and composer, is best known for “Jerry Springer: The Opera.” His clever, literate and perceptive libretto for “Anna Nicole” bops along in rhymed couplets, thick with alliterative, everyday profanities. He and Turnage sensitively navigate the terrain of Anna Nicole’s chaotic and sadly pathetic life, which ended in 2007 at 39, a result of a fatal mixture of drugs. They lend Smith vulnerability without covering over her crassness.

Conductor Antonio Pappano, music director of Covent Garden, who shares a passion for jazz with Turnage, drew an electric, blazing yet wondrously subtle performance from the orchestra. And the director Richard Jones has devised a dazzling, humorous yet humane

production, with sets by Miriam Buether that come alive with Day-Glo colors and neon lights, and playfully realistic costumes

by Nicky Gillibrand.

Whether Smith was a tragic figure is debatable. But Turnage and Thomas have given us a tragic operatic heroine, a downtrodden nobody determined to make it, to “rape the American dream,” as she puts it, any way she can. Their Anna Nicole is in the lineage of Bizet’s Carmen, Berg’s Lulu and the Weill-Brecht Jenny.

Maybe it is my slant on things, but Turnage’s music is the primary reason that so much seemed so right in “Anna Nicole.” There are flashes of Weill in the clattering cabaretlike scenes in which the reporters, wielding microphones, mutter like a Greek chorus; and jazzy sneering brass writing in the scene with the dancers at the “gentlemen’s club” in Houston.

At times Turnage’s connection to the British modernist school of complex composers like Harrison Birtwistle comes through.

The more reflective passages often take the surprising form of beguiling, varied waltzes.

Covent Garden may have overplayed the opera’s sensational elements of sex and drugs in its marketing campaign, though “Anna Nicole” can probably claim to be breaking new ground in the scene in which Anna Nicole receives breastimplant surgery from the fasttalking Doctor Yes (a vibrant Andrew Rees). The libretto has countless lines that cannot be printed in a family newspaper or website. And “Anna Nicole” revels shamelessly in the crass, sleazy side of American culture, which may be too easy a target.

The London audience ate it up. But so did I, because in the end this is a musically rich, audacious and inexplicably poignant work.

The ovations were tumultuous. Who says the Royal Opera takes itself too reverently?

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Monday, Feb. 21, 2011: This year, you have the rare opportunity to nod your head and go for what you want. An illusive or deceptive element could surround a goal. A partner or friend could be overly serious, dragging you down but keeping you realistic. If you are single, check out someone you meet with great care. He or she might not be all that you think. If you are attached, enjoy the rose-colored haze that develops between you two.

LIBRA can be stern sometimes!

A baby born today, Feb. 21, 2011, is a Sun in Pisces and a Moon in Libra.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH Defer to others, as that might be the most effective path.

Encourage a discussion that involves work or a daily matter.

You might be delighted! A meeting inspires you and those in it. Tonight: Sort through the possibilities.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH You could be juggling a lot.

A meeting or discussion with a friend or associate could pile on even more to do, though it is your pleasure. Direct some of your energy into making a long-term dream possible, which might involve an authority figure. Tonight: Slow down.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20)

HHHHH When others note how creative and dynamic your thoughts are, they also are asking you to pitch in with a project.

You not only are flattered but also are even more inspired.

You are making an impression on those who count! Tonight: Respond to your need to frolic.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH You might want to relate directly to others. Lying back also works, as you need time to think through a decision. Research might play a key role in a decision. Tonight: Close to home. Make it easy.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHHH Knowing what is important to do and say at the right time always is helpful. You often take that skill for granted. It is more than manners; it is an intuitive ability. Communicate with someone you trust about a financial or emotional matter.

Tonight: Whatever pleases you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Your conversations are vital and full of fun. Honor the differences between you and others.

You will discover how verbal the people in your life can become if you demonstrate that respect. If you need more funds, quit risking, and also pick up an odd job or two. Tonight: Pay bills first.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH You are all smiles. Don’t kid yourself — others are quite perceptive to your moods. If you are wanting to indulge or flatter someone, a mere sentence and a little time will do the trick — today. Let your imagination come out with a child or loved one. Tonight: Fun and games.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Take your time, especially

if you sense that you might not be able to hit fifth gear. A slow but deliberate pace can work too, especially if you need feedback or more information. Use your instincts with a family member who can be elusive. Tonight: Vanish, if you can.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Never say “no” to a supporter’s offer to help. You might regret it later, like today. You find that focusing on other meetings helps get you closer to a goal.

Listening to others helps you decide which way to go. Tonight: Let your imagination rock and roll.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH A must appearance allows greater give-and-take. Others join you. No one can doubt the strength of your leadership, even if they question some of your choices.

An investment might not be all that it is portrayed to be. Tonight: Burning the candle at both ends.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Keep reaching out for that special someone at a distance.

You might feel better than you have in a long while. Your sense of humor comes out when dealing with a money matter. What floats through your mind like a wild idea might be possible. Tonight: Choose some cotton candy for the mind!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH A partnership defines your day. The power of a conversation could stump you. You might discover that some of your response was over the top. Talk to a friend — someone you trust — more openly. Tonight: How about dinner for two?

IdaTech Continued from C1 In Bend, IdaTech employs 78 people and is recruiting for electrical, chemical, mechanical and software engineers.

“This is where we do all the technical research and product development for the company,” Koyama said. “We hold more than 150 patents around the world. We licensed 45 patents in the last quarter of last year.”

He said a market study conducted by IdaTech prior to initiating the manufacturing phase in December showed the potential world market of around $1 billion for the ElectraGen ME and its other hydrogen fuel cell models.

Future cars By successfully manufacturing a hydrogen fuel cell that essentially runs on methanol and water, Koyama said IdaTech has contributed to the advancement of hydrogen fuel cells as a potential replacement for fossil fuels and internal combustion engines that power everything from diesel generators to cars, trains, airplanes, power plants and more.

He said 2011 is a big year for IdaTech, with the production of its first profitable and therefore commercially viable hydrogen fuel cell model. And 2015 is expected to be a big year for development of a hydrogen-powered car to be released by Toyota and Honda that will use some of the same technology as IdaTech’s hydrogen fuel cells and fuel reformers.

However, Koyama said instead of packaging the fuel reformers with the hydrogen fuel cells, automotive manufacturers are working with a model where the fuel cells are equipped with a refillable tank for compressed hydrogen.

Instead of installing the hydrogen reformers on each car, which Koyama said would be cost prohibitive with current technology, the automotive strategy involves putting large hydrogen reformers at gas stations.

At gas stations, methanol and water mixtures would be piped through a hydrogen fuel reformer and converted to compressed hydrogen gas, which could be pumped into a vehicle’s hydro-

They are shaped similar to a side-by-side refrigerator, with the fuel cells located on one side and the hydrogen reformer on the other side.

“As of right now the average unit cost is about $16,500 for the ElectraGen ME,” Koyama said.

kilowatt fuel cell for 50 hours of operation.

It’s much easier to install a tank to store bio-methanol fuel on site than it is to haul in 30 hydrogen cylinders every two days or so while a hydrogen fuel cell is generating electricity, Fosberg said.

She said compared with diesel generators, generating electricity with hydrogen fuel cells eliminates particulate matter emissions, cuts carbon dioxide emissions in half and reduces carbon, nitrogen oxide and sulfur emissions by 95 percent.

Hydrogen fuel cells are 20 percent more fuel efficient than diesel generators and, when equipped with hydrogen fuel reformers, run on a renewable liquid fuel — the bio-methanol, according IdaTech documents.

Methanol used as a fuel in the ElectraGen ME can be made from just about anything from plant, animal and human wastes to woody biomass and crop residues, which solves the hydrogen supply and logistical problems with earlier models that ran strictly on compressed hydrogen gas, Fosberg said.

As a result, she said, there’s a huge demand for the ElectraGen ME in underdeveloped countries. That demand, in turn, is bumping up production of the units, which is one of the factors helping to drive down the cost per unit.

The methanol — mixed about two parts to one with water to power hydrogen fuel cells — is similar to the methanol used in windshield washer fluid, engine additives, latex paints, plastic bottles and other things, according to IdaTech product information documents.

Fosberg said methanol is preferable to diesel or other fossil fuels because it’s easily biodegradable, sulfur-free, has a low freezing point of minus 95.8 degrees and does not degrade when stored for a long time.

“It is biodegradable, so nobody cares if you spill some of it on the ground,” Fosberg said.

“The world, despite occasional headlines, is not going to run out of any of these materials any time soon. … (But) the problems of energycritical elements are very real and serious.”

— Robert Jaffe, MIT physics professor and chairman of a rare-earths study committee

Rare earths Continued from C1 Gallium, indium and germanium are other elements for which demand is now low but might grow far faster than production could be increased, the report said, leading to big price swings.

“The world, despite occasional headlines, is not going to run out of any of these materials any time soon,” said Robert Jaffe, a physics professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the chairman of the study committee. But “the problems of energy-critical elements are very real and serious,” he said.

Production of those materials today is generally a byproduct of something else, and not a result of primary production of the elements themselves. So investors may not want to build mines or processing plants just for those elements, the study said.

The report put lithium in this

category. It is important to batteries, but substitutes might be found, and that means that exploration and development of new lithium resources “remains in limbo.”

And no one is sure about how fast production of these “energy critical elements” could be increased, the study said, noting that the process of developing and opening a new mine can take decades.

Another complication is that mining many of the materials also brings to the surface uranium and thorium, which are radioactive. The uranium and thorium often occur in concentrations too low to be commercially attractive, so they are cast aside as byproducts, creating environmental problems.

The report said the White House Office of Science and Technology Policy should create a committee to examine the production and use of these energy-critical elements, and aim to enhance their production or find substitutes. Recycling would help, too, it said.

Zero Energy Plans modified the existing design for the ranger’s house at the Painted Hills Unit of the John Day Fossil Beds National Monument. “We had really the full support and encouragement of the park service to do all the little things,” said Ted Clifton with the Washington-based company. “Many customers, they won’t quite pull the trigger to do all the things to get to zero energy.”

Zero energy Continued from C1 His research led him to Ted Clifton with Zero Energy Plans in Washington state, who modified an existing plan for the Painted Hills ranger house, and came up with a house that produces its own energy, plus some extra.

“We had really the full support and encouragement of the park service to do all the little things,” Clifton said. “Many customers, they won’t quite pull the trigger to do all the things to get to zero energy.”

The key is to get the power use of the house down as far as possible, he said, noting that the Painted Hills house will use about 40 percent of what a normal house would.

“Then, what’s left doesn’t take much to run,” he said.

To get to a low electricity use requires things like measuring where the sunlight would come in from each window, he said, to see if rays would hit the concrete floor — which would absorb and store the energy — or simply hit a couch. It involves using a spe-

cialized, but still cost-comparable, type of framing with builtin foam insulation, and making sure all the appliances are the most efficient possible.

“All these things are out there, it’s all off-the-rack stuff,” Clifton said. “It’s just selecting the best stuff off the rack.”

The Painted Hills house is designed not only to generate all the energy its residents use, with solar panels for both electricity and hot water, but also to create extra power for transportation.

With the 24 solar panels producing a little more than 7,000 kilowatts of power a year, Clifton said, there’s enough power left over to charge up a Chevy Volt electric car to drive more than 5,000 miles a year.

Building green and net-zero energy is possible even on a modest budget, he said, noting that he recently designed a 1,900square-foot, three-bedroom home for about $240,000 — including enough solar power for the house and an electric car. But it could take more demand from customers before it catches on.

The Painted Hills house is about 1,000 square feet and cost about $200 per square foot to build. It

was built by Kirby Nagelhout Construction Co., of Bend.

The park service is committed to making operations as energy efficient as possible, Hammett said. With so many resources potentially negatively impacted by climate change — such as Glacier National Park quickly losing all of its glaciers — it’s a key issue for the agency, he said.

“We view the national parks as sort of a canary in the mine,” Hammett said. “If the ecosystems in the parks go downhill, what does that say?”

The Painted Hills operation is small and doesn’t require much power to start with — just one house, an information kiosk that isn’t heated and the ranger’s vehicle. But the monument plans to buy an electric utility vehicle for the unit, Hammett said, and the operation is a step in the right direction.

“It was more symbolic than anything else, but it is very real,” he said. “We’ve made that operation of Painted Hills carbon neutral.”

t seems as though we just closed the books on the 2010 bike racing season, but already another one is off and running.

While Old Man Winter recently returned to these parts, the 2011 Oregon bicycle racing season officially got under way Saturday at the Cherry Pie Road Race, held near Albany. Despite being the first event on the Oregon racing calendar each year, Cherry Pie annually attracts huge numbers of eager bike racers gunning to prove their early-season fitness.

Not far behind, the first crosscountry mountain bike race of the season in Oregon is just around the corner — Echo Red to Red is slated for March 12 in the northeastern Oregon community of Echo, near Pendleton.

We all know Central Oregon is home to numerous professional cyclists in road, mountain biking and cyclocross. While most of those riders make their homes here, they tend to race elsewhere on national- or international-tier teams. The vast majority of the riders we see racing throughout Oregon and in the numerous local cycling events in this region are members of one of 15 local clubs or teams. Some are elite-level amateurs or former pros. Others are first-timers, juniors in development or seasoned masters.

Some area teams are exclusive, while others are open to riders of any racing ability. Some teams require a minimum racing commitment or volunteer support at special events, while others encourage recreational and touring riders to join their ranks. Some have an off-road racing focus (mountain biking and cyclocross), while others attract riders who race in all cycling disciplines.

Teams cull together local sponsors, which help pay for things like team jerseys and race entry fees.

Team benefits might also include a discount at a local bike shop, but most team members claim the real benefits are the support and camaraderie that come with participating in rides and races with likeminded cyclists.

While some local teams are still accepting new members, most have closed their rosters for the 2011 season. In most cases, riders interested in joining a team should contact the captain or title sponsor in the fall.

All the local teams I communicated with share an enthusiasm for participating in rides and races slated for their home turf this year, including the USA Cycling Master Road National Championships and the Marathon Mountain Bike National Championships coming to the area in late summer.

t last weekend’s state swim championships in Gresham, Central Oregon teams once again delivered on the big stage.

The Bend High boys and Summit girls teams both posted top-four finishes at the Class 5A state meet, and individual state titles were taken by four locals, including Mountain View freshman Brandon Deckard, who was named the 5A boys swimmer of the meet.

While Bend, Mountain View and Summit swimmers garnered most of the headlines in Sunday’s paper, Madras made some history of its own at the Class 4A/3A/ 2A/1A state championships. The White Buffaloes, who have sponsored varsity swimming for just two seasons, finished 13th at the boys meet and tied for 22nd in the girls championship.

Sophomore Elizabeth Armitage paced the Madras girls with a sixth-place finish in 50-yard freestyle and freshman Ian Goodwin took fifth in the 500 freestyle to lead the Buffalo boys. Madras only looks to get better as all five of the White Buffaloes’ state qualifiers are underclassmen, four of whom are either freshmen or sophomores this year.

BEAU EASTES The Madras boys team could improve considerably at the 2012 meet. Three of the Buffs’ entries at state this year just missed out on advancing to the state finals by one spot. Madras’ 200 medley relay squad and White Buffalo sophomore Dustin Henderson in the 200 freestyle and 100 backstroke all placed seventh in their respective preliminary swims.

The top six times in prelims advance to the state finals.

State wrestling tourney begins Friday With regional competition concluding Saturday, the brackets have been set for the Class 6A, 5A, 4A, 3A and 2A/1A state wrestling championships, all of which will be staged this Friday and Saturday at Memorial Coliseum in Portland.

There are multiple Central Oregon storylines to follow this weekend.

No tryouts are required and all players will be automatically placed on a team of players similar in age and playing ability. The league matches start April 2 and will run no later than May 29. Any late applicants (after Feb. 21 but before March 1) will be placed on a waiting list.

Tennis • Roddick wins 30th career title in three-set thriller: Andy Roddick won the 30th title of his career in his 50th final Sunday, finishing off a thrilling 7-6 (7), 6-7 (11), 7-5 victory over Canadian Milos Raonic in the Regions Morgan Keegan Championships in Memphis, Tenn. Roddick polished off the 2-hour, 36-minute match by diving to put his racket on the ball for a winner down the line for the victory.

• Wozniacki beats Kuznetsova to win Dubai final: Caroline Wozniacki earned her first singles title of 2011, beating an error-prone Svetlana Kuznetsova of Russia to win 6-1, 6-3 in the Dubai Championships final Sunday in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The Dane, who will retake the No. 1 ranking from Kim Clijsters today, was never seriously threatened by the 23rd-ranked Kuznetsova. The Russian will still move up to 11th in the rankings.

• Almagro wins Copa Claro for second straight title: Nicolas Almagro of Spain won his second consecutive ATP tournament by beating Juan Ignacio Chela 6-3, 3-6, 6-4 in the final of the Copa Claro on Sunday in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Almagro, winner of the Brazil Open — also on clay — a week ago, earned his ninth ATP title. This was the first time he has won back-to-back events.

• Soderling beats Cilic in Open 13 final: Robin Soderling of Sweden beat Marin Cilic of Croatia 6-7 (8), 6-3, 6-3 Sunday in the final of the Open 13 in Marseille, France, to earn his ninth career title. The top-seeded Swede has now won 17 of 18 matches this year, clinching titles in Rotterdam last weekend and in Brisbane last month.

• ATP warns of Acapulco security concerns: The ATP has warned players about security concerns at its tournament in Acapulco, Mexico, and has been reassured by Mexican officials that steps are being taken to ensure safety at the largest tournament in Latin America. The Mexican Open begins today as a combined ATP and WTA event. The Pacific resort city has been hit by a wave of drug violence in Mexico, although little of the violence happens in tourist areas.

Horse racing • Japan to get Breeders’ Cup Challenge race: The Breeders’ Cup Challenge series is expanding to Japan.

The winner of the Takarazuka Kinen stakes race will earn an automatic starting position in the $3 million Turf race during the Breeders’ Cup at Churchill Downs in November. The Group 1 race for 3-year-olds and up will be run at 1 3⁄8 miles on the turf at Hanshin Racecourse on June 26.

Football • Third day of mediated NFL labor talks done: Federally mediated negotiations toward a new NFL labor deal lasted about eight hours Sunday, the third consecutive day the league and its players’ union met to try to find common ground before the current contract expires. NFL Players Association executive director DeMaurice Smith didn’t stop for questions as he left the Washington office of the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, a U.S. government agency, shortly after 6 p.m. He and NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell arrived within minutes of each other, shortly before 10 a.m. Sunday was the third consecutive — and, so far, longest — day of face-to-face communication after months of slow and sometimes contentious bargaining.

Cycling • Martin wins Tour of Algarve; Contador is fourth: Tony Martin of Germany won the Tour of the Algarve in Portimao, Portugal, with a strong sprint in the final stage Sunday to deny Alberto Contador his third straight title at the race, the Spaniard’s first competition since escaping a doping ban.

Martin won the 10-mile time trial in 20 minutes, 53 seconds to claim the title with an overall time of 18 hours, 48 minutes, 45 seconds. Contador placed 15th in the final stage and finished fourth overall, 41 seconds behind Martin.

Auto racing • Bahrain’s protesters demand royals cancels F1 race: Formula One’s season-opening grand prix in Bahrain could be in jeopardy as newly emboldened protesters in Manama call for the royal family to scrap what they see as a costly vanity project, though the race also is the Gulf island’s premier international event. Demonstrations shaking the Arab world have put F1 smack in the middle of a power struggle in the small kingdom and U.S. ally, and those trying to oust the island’s dynasty know they have an important political tool in the Bahrain GP. — The Associated Press

MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL ROUNDUP

GOLF ROUNDUP

Baddeley reigns at Riviera The Associated Press

Bend Margot / The Associated Press

UCLA’s Reeves Nelson, right, rebounds past California’s Harper Kamp, left, during the first half of an NCAA college basketball game, Sunday in Berkeley, Calif.

Cal snaps its losing streak with OT win The Associated Press BERKELEY, Calif. — Jorge Gutierrez scored 34 points, Markhuri Sanders-Frison had 12 points and California held on to beat UCLA 76-72 in overtime Sunday night to snap a four-game losing streak in thrilling fashion.

The Bears blew a 12-point lead and overcame Malcolm Lee’s stunning buzzer-beater at the end of regulation to finally snap their skid. Star freshman Allen Crabbe returned after missing the past two games with a concussion to score eight points, grab seven rebounds and help Cal (14-13, 7-8 Pac10) stay above .500.

Lee had 19 points and Tyler Honeycutt scored 14 points for the Bruins (19-8, 10-4), who saw their six-game winning streak end and Cal’s home fans storm the court in celebration afterward.

Cal needed everything it had to break its longest losing streak of the season.

After Gutierrez made four free throws to put Cal ahead by three, UCLA had only 6.6 seconds to take the ball the length of the court and send the game to overtime. And it was just enough time.

A scramble for the final shot landed in the hands of Lee near the top of the arc. His three-pointer bounced off the front of the rim, straight up, then in, touching off a wild celebration with Lee leaping in the air and pumping his fist as teammates mobbed him near the opposite bench.

The home fans were in stunned silence, and Cal coach Mike Montgomery furiously pushed his chair on the bench in disbelief before gathering his players for the extra period.

Gutierrez, as he had done all game, answered by scoring Cal’s first six points in overtime — nine in all in the extra session — to help the defending Pac10 champions to a much-needed victory.

LOS ANGELES — Finally a winner again, Aaron Baddeley raised his arms when his last putt dropped into the cup Sunday in the Northern Trust Open as his wife and two young daughters came over to share the moment.

They might have been among the few cheering him on at Riviera.

Baddeley could hear chants of “Freddie!” at every turn, and it got even louder when Fred Couples birdied the opening three holes to take the lead. Unfazed, Baddeley cared only about a victory that was just as meaningful to him.

“I thought Freddie was going to be tough today because winning is a skill, and Freddie has been winning quite often recently,” Baddeley said.

“When he got off to a good start, I was like, ‘Freddie looks like he’s going to have one of those days where he’s going to play great.’ I was still just trying to focus on my game, and try to do what I needed to do.”

He did just enough.

In a battle of generations, the 29year-old Australian made his best putt after his only big mistake and closed with a 2-under 69 to hold off Vijay Singh and Couples, and win for the first time in four years.

Baddeley wound up with a twoshot win over Singh, who turns 48 on Tuesday. The big Fijian closed with a 69 for his best finish in more than two years. Couples, who still had hope on the 16th, bogeyed two of the last three holes and shot 73 to tie for seventh in his bid to become the PGA Tour’s oldest winner in more than 35 years.

“I’m a golfer, so I’m disappointed,” Couples said.

With his tender back, it took only one hole for Couples to fall apart.

Tied for the lead, he pushed his tee shot into the barranca to the right of the seventh fairway in grass so thick he had trouble finding his ball. Couples gave it a ferocious whack, and the ball came out to the left and into a bunker. He wound up making double bogey, a three-shot swing when Baddeley holed a 20-footer for birdie from the fringe.

“I just didn’t feel the same after that,” Couples said. “I didn’t really hurt myself, but I never hit a shot, and I just got it around. I mean, I couldn’t hit an iron. I hit a few good drives, but I was afraid to hit the ground, hitting it that hard out of

Aaron Baddeley, of Australia, celebrates after sinking his final par putt to win the Northern Trust Open PGA golf tournament at Riviera Country Club in Los Angeles on Sunday. that stuff. I did get off to a good start, and that was where it ended.

“It’s nothing bad,” he said. “I’m not having any excuse. It’s just after that point, I never hit a shot.”

It was the third career PGA Tour win for Baddeley, whose game had slipped so much that he had plunged to No. 224 in the world. This isn’t enough to get back into the top 50, but at least he can book a trip to Augusta National in April for the Masters.

Singh, who only three weeks ago had fallen out of the top 100 in the world for the first time in more than 21 years, had his highest finish since he won the Deutsche Bank Cham-

pionship in 2008 on his way to the FedEx Cup. Despite back-to-back bogeys on the back nine, he gave himself a chance to the very end.

Singh said it was the best week with the putter in his career, which would include his 2000 Masters victory. He took only 105 putts for the week, including just one three-putt in the second round.

“That’s a great, great thing to have when you’re putting well,” Singh said. “I haven’t done that for a long, long time. This is going to get me some places.”

Baddeley, who finished at 12-under 272, won for the first time since the 2007 Phoenix Open. He had been

one of the early proponents of the “Stack & Tilt” swing method until deciding to go back to his old teacher, Dale Lynch, two years ago. His goal was to be able to move the ball both ways without having to think about it, and the swing held up just fine on a sunny afternoon along Sunset Boulevard.

“To be honest, it felt like coming home,” Baddeley said of his return to Lynch, his first coach as a teenager in Australia.

Frenchman Grange wins men’s slalom SKIING: WORLD CUP

By Nesha Starcevic The Associated Press

Michael Probst / The Associated Press

Jean-Baptiste Grange, of France, bites the gold medal he won in the men’s slalom at the Alpine World Skiing Championships in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, Sunday.

G A R M I S C H - PA R T E N KIRCHEN, Germany — JeanBaptiste Grange of France capped a long comeback by claiming the final gold medal of the Alpine skiing world championships by winning the men’s slalom Sunday.

Grange, long one of the top slalom racers, led after the first run and hung on for the victory, finishing in 1 minute, 41.72 seconds to beat Jens Byggmark of Sweden by 0.43 seconds. Manfred Moelgg of Italy took bronze, 0.61 seconds behind.

“I didn’t have a good feeling in the second run at all,” Grange said. “I had to fight all the way, I gave it all I had, but when I crossed the line I wasn’t sure it would be enough.”

Nolan Kasper was the top

American, finishing 15th in 1:43.83, and giant slalom champion Ted Ligety was 19th in 1:44.17.

Grange already had a bronze medal from the 2007 worlds, but his career had been slowed by injuries. He was forced to miss last year’s Olympics with a rightknee injury at a time when he was the reigning World Cup slalom champion.

“The year 2009 was so hard for me. I was the favorite for the gold (at the worlds) and at the end I had nothing. Then I had the knee injury and the way back was so long.”

Grange did not finish the second run at his home worlds in Val d’Isere in 2009.

“There was a lot of pressure on me today because of my failure in France. It’s tough to come back

after a number of setbacks,” said Grange, the first Frenchman to win slalom gold since 1970.

Byggmark jumped from sixth to second to claim the silver. The Swede won two World Cup races — two consecutive slaloms in Kitzbuehel — and posted four runner-up finishes in 2007 and ‘08, but hadn’t been on the podium since then, a stretch of more than three years.

“I am still not sure how I did it,” Byggmark said. “I only knew I had to ski fast. It’s incredible. ...

I wasn’t concerned with finding a line, I just focused on skiing.

It was very tough on the steep sections, but I did well there.

Getting a medal is great after so many problems I’ve had in the past years.”

NHL ROUNDUP

Red Wings take shootout victory over Wild The Associated Press ST. PAUL, Minn. — Todd Bertuzzi was showered with boos as he glided left, then right, then charged forward on the empty ice.

His 1,000th career game came to a fitting and dramatic conclusion, when he slowed in front of the net and veered right before flipping a backhander over Minnesota goalie Niklas Backstrom into the far upper corner to clinch a 2-1 shootout win Sunday for Detroit.

With help from goalie Jimmy Howard, Bertuzzi savored a victory over his old nemesis the Wild, the fifth straight for the Red Wings.

“There’s no better place to get the two points and also score,” said Bertuzzi, who became a villain in Minnesota during the 2003 playoffs with Vancouver. “It’s a great atmosphere.

Every time we come here it’s always a real good game for the fans.”

Bertuzzi became the 263rd player in NHL history, 33 of them still active, to reach the 1,000-game milestone.

Family members were here to mark the occasion.

“It’s pretty special. Pretty cool,” Bertuzzi said.

After Pavel Datsyuk pushed a wrister past Backstrom in the first round, Howard denied the Wild’s PierreMarc Bouchard and Matt Cullen to set up Bertuzzi’s winner. Backstrom said he thought he had it. Howard has yielded one shootout goal in 14 tries this season.

“It’s just being patient and letting them make the first move and just moving with them,” said Howard, who raised his record to 30-10-3. “It’s been successful this year.”

Xcel Energy Center was an ironic site for Bertuzzi’s big game. The bearded, rugged right wing first riled up the fans here by telling people in line for advance playoff tickets to see Game 6 of their second-round series eight years ago not to bother because the Canucks were going to end it before then.

The Wild came back from a 3-1

deficit, and Bertuzzi never heard the end of it. He was booed during the All-Star game here in 2004, and even as he switched teams over the years his bad-boy reputation always preceded him. This game was no different, whenever his name was announced. During the kiss cam feature on a break in the action, Bertuzzi was shown on the video board on the bench next to Ruslan Salei, seemingly oblivious to the jeering.

With two goals apiece in three of his previous four games, the revitalized 36-year-old is becoming a bigger part of the push to catch his old team the Canucks in the Western Conference.

“Got to be excited for him,” Red Wings coach Mike Babcock said.

Minnesota’s Martin Havlat answered Nicklas Lidstrom’s goal early in the third period by scoring on a breakaway to tie the game. Backstrom, who gave up only eight goals in his six previous starts this month, made 38 saves to keep the Wild competitive.

Bayne takes victory at Daytona

By Jenna Fryer The Associated Press

Mark J. Terrill / The Associated Press

West’s Kobe Bryant drives past East’s LeBron James, left, and Joe Johnson during the second half of the NBA basketball All-Star Game on Sunday in Los Angeles.

Kobe takes MVP in West’s All-Star win

By Brian Mahoney The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Kobe Bryant always shines brightest among the stars, especially in his hometown.

Bryant brought Showtime back to the All-Star game, scoring 37 points and tying a record with his fourth MVP award, leading the Western Conference to a 148-143 victory over the East on Sunday night.

Returning to the game he dominates after a one-year absence, Bryant added 14 rebounds in a spectacular performance in front of the usual celebrity-filled crowd that turns out to see his Lakers at Staples Center.

“It feels great, being at home here and playing in front of the home crowd,” Bryant said after receiving the MVP trophy. “This will be my last All-Star game in front of these home fans, so it feels good to do it.”

Kevin Durant chipped in 34 points, scoring five straight after the East cut a 17-point deficit after three quarters to two points with 2:34 to play. The NBA scoring leader added the clinching free throws after the East got back within three in the final seconds.

LeBron James powered the East rally, finishing with 29 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists to join Michael Jordan as

NBA the only players with a tripledouble in the All-Star game. Amare Stoudemire also scored 29, but Miami’s Dwyane Wade, the MVP of the East’s win last year, had to leave with an ankle injury after scoring 14.

Plenty of Hollywood giants were sitting courtside, but Bryant’s popularity here can rival most of them. This week, he became the first athlete to have his handprints and footprints put in concrete outside Hollywood’s famed Grauman’s Chinese Theater.

He told fans to “enjoy the show” before the tip, and as always he delivered a good one.

Always more about focus than fun, Bryant had 21 points by the time Rihanna came out for her halftime performance, putting him halfway to Wilt Chamberlain’s record from 1962, the year of his 100-point game. And when the East made it close in the third quarter, Bryant dunked over a chasing James who was going for the block, then nailed a threepointer to make it 90-79.

While hearing some of the usual “MVP! MVP! chants he’s usually serenaded with at Staples Center, Bryant tied Bob Pettit’s record for All-Star game honors.

Ranger will not be distraction; Dodgers’ skipper nervous The Associated Press Michael Young asked for a change of scenery a month ago after another role change with the Texas Rangers.

Now, he’s fine where he’s at — wherever that may be on the field.

“He said he wasn’t going to be a distraction. That was it,” manager Ron Washington said Sunday, relaying what Young said during a scheduled team meeting before the workout.

The longest-tenured Rangers player going into his 11th season, Young has a different role for the third time in eight springs. He’s expected to be the team’s primary designated hitter and utility infielder after the offseason acquisition of Adrian Beltre supplanted Young at third base, the position he played the last two seasons.

Young had requested a trade last month, but with no deal done, he reported to camp on time Saturday and said he was focused on getting ready for the season.

“First and foremost I’m a baseball player. There’s nothing to block out,” said Young, who took grounders at second base for the first time in several years. “For it to become public is regretful but I’ve got no regrets. Baseball is my life sport. It’s my entire life.”

Elsewhere in spring training, new Dodgers manager Don Mattingly conceded he had some jitters about standing up to give the first speech to the entire team when the position players arrive in camp today.

Also, Yankees captain Derek Jeter said he plans to enjoy his upcoming trip to 3,000 career hits, and Indians center fielder Grady Sizemore hopes to be ready for opening day after knee surgery.

At Surprise, Ariz., Washington said he plans for Young, the team’s career hits leader and a six-time All-Star, to get some work at first base this spring even though most of his at-bats will come as the DH.

MLB Young became a starter for the Rangers in 2001 at second base, moved to shortstop before the 2004 season after Alex Rodriguez was traded, then was switched to third base two years ago when the Rangers decided to promote Elvis Andrus from the minors.

“It feels like home for me on defense,” Young said. “I hadn’t played there in years, played there in the World Baseball Classic and it was like I never left.”

At Glendale, Ariz., Mattingly acknowledged he was nervous when talking to the Dodgers’ pitchers and catchers when they reported Wednesday.

“It’s the first time. You’re starting out and you’re trying to create an environment and let the players know how you think,” Mattingly said.

Most of the position players have already been working out at the facility this week, but today is their official reporting day. He inherits a club that lost its way under Joe Torre in the second half of 2010, going 80-82 and finishing fourth in the NL West.

“How long have I been thinking about it? The whole winter,” Mattingly said when asked about the speech. “A lot of it is talking from your heart, but making sure I have some type of direction.

“You make notes over time.

There will be parts of that speech from things I might have heard my second spring training that I ever went to as a player.”

At Tampa, Fla., Jeter is preparing for a season that could put him in a special spot as he is 74 hits from 3,000.

“It’s going to be a party the whole year,” Jeter joked. “I’ve always been one that tries to shy away from anything that’s personal and not talk about it much. Couldn’t wait for it to be over with because I really didn’t like the focus to be on me. Now, I think, it’s going to be more of enjoying every day.”

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — Trevor Bayne finally made a mistake. Fortunately for him, it didn’t happen until he missed the turn pulling into Victory Lane at the Daytona 500.

The youngest driver to win the Great American Race gave the historic Wood Brothers team its fifth Daytona 500 victory — its first since 1976 with David Pearson — and Bayne did it in a No. 21 Ford that was retrofitted to resemble Pearson’s famed ride.

In just his second Sprint Cup start, the 20-year-old Bayne stunned NASCAR’s biggest names with a thrilling overtime win Sunday at Daytona International Speedway, holding off Carl Edwards after fan favorite Dale Earnhardt Jr. crashed in NASCAR’s first attempt at a green-white-checkered flag finish.

“Our first 500, are you kidding me?” said Bayne, who needed directions to Victory Lane. “Wow. This is unbelievable.”

Unbelievable, indeed.

Just one day after celebrating his 20th birthday and leaving his teenage years behind, the aw-shucks Tennessean who shaves once a week and considers “Rugrats” his favorite TV show captured the sport’s biggest race.

When he found himself at the front, and victory just two laps away, he never thought it would last. Bayne was content just to say he had been leading at the start of the green-white-checkered.

“I’m a little bit worried that one of them is going to come after me tonight,” he said. “I’m going to have to sleep with one eye open. That’s why I said I felt a little undeserving.

I’m leading, and I’m saying, ‘Who can I push?’ ” Bayne thought for sure Tony Stewart or someone else would attempt to pass.

Nobody did.

“We get to turn four, and we were still leading the band,” he said. “It seemed a little bit too easy there at the end.”

The rookie had been great throughout Speedweeks, even proving his mettle by pushing four-time champion Jeff Gordon for most of a qualifying race, a performance Bayne said convinced the veterans he could be trusted on the track.

“I figured they had a chance after seeing that boy race in the 150s,” said Pear-

I told him to keep his head straight and not to do anything crazy.

I told him to stay relaxed. I’m proud of him.”

With the win Bayne breaks Gordon’s mark as the youngest winner in Daytona 500 history.

Gordon was 25 when he won the 500 in 1997.

“I think it’s very cool. Trevor’s a good kid, and I love the Wood Brothers,” Gordon said. “I’m really happy for him. And I think it’s great for the sport. To have a young talent like that — he’s got that spark, you know?”

The victory for NASCAR pioneers Leonard and Glen Wood ended a 10-year-losing streak and came the week of the 10th anniversary of Dale Earnhardt’s fatal accident on the last lap of the 2001 Daytona 500.

This was only the fourth win in the last 20 years for Wood Brothers — NASCAR’s oldest team — which hasn’t run a full Sprint Cup season since 2006 and hit the low point of its 61year-old existence when they failed to qualify for the 2008 Daytona 500.

“When you miss a race, like the Daytona 500, it’s like somebody died,” said Eddie Wood, part of the second generation of

Woods now running the team.

“When you walk through the garage and you run into people you see every week, they don’t look at you, they don’t know what to say.”

The rebuild has been slow, and they got Bayne this year for 17 races, on loaner from RoushFenway Racing, the team that snatched him up late last season when Michael Waltrip Racing — which gave Bayne his start in 2009 — couldn’t promise a sponsor for this season.

So it was on to Roush, which plans for Bayne to run for the Nationwide Series title this season, and a deal was made to get him some seat time in the Cup Series with the Woods. It wouldn’t be for points, and he wasn’t eligible to run for rookie of the year.

But the stunning Daytona 500 win — and the $1,462,563 payday — might change everybody’s plans. The team already said it will now go to Martinsville, the sixth race of the season, which had not been on its original schedule.

Bayne could possibly retract his decision to run for the Nationwide title.

“I don’t even know if that’s an option,” Bayne said.

Sunday’s race had a record 74 lead changes among 22 driv-

ers, and a record 16 cautions that wiped out many of the leaders, including Earnhardt Jr., on the first attempt at NASCAR’s version of overtime. It put Bayne out front with a slew of unusual suspects.

David Ragan, winless in 147 career starts, was actually leading the field on NASCAR’s first attempt at a green-white-checkered finish. But he was flagged for changing lanes before the starting line, then an accident that collected Earnhardt in the middle of the pack brought out the caution, and Bayne inherited the lead.

But he had two-time series champion Stewart, now winless in 13 career Daytona 500s, lurking behind with veterans Bobby Labonte, Mark Martin and Kurt Busch, who had collected two previous wins over Speedweeks.

All were chomping at the bit for their first Daytona 500 title, but Bayne never blinked, holding his gas pedal down wide open as he staved off every challenge over the two-lap final shootout.

“It was too easy,” Bayne said.

Duerson

Bowl five years later. He retired from pro football in 1993.

For the past several years, Duerson served on the six-person panel that considers retired players’ claims through the league’s disability plan and the 88 Plan, a fund founded in 2007 to help defray families’ costs of caring for players with dementia. So Duerson would have been familiar with the stories of hundreds of retirees with mental issues ranging from impaired short-term memory to outright dementia. “You know he’s been sitting in the disability meetings and the applications, so I’m sure he’s seen a lot of disability applications that have to do with brain injury,� said Ben Lynch, who played center for the 49ers from 1999 to 2002. “Having seen all those things come across in front of him, and for him to make the request about his brain, it’s something that must have been really on his mind.

It’s unbelievable to me that this happened. The fact that he shot himself in chest, and not the head, it’s really eerie.�

Matt Birk, a center for the Baltimore Ravens, is one of six current NFL players and 103 in all who have pledged to donate their brain to the Boston University center for analysis after their deaths. He said Duerson’s requesting the same before shooting himself in a way punctuated the first era of the investigation. “It’s almost now to the point that — not that it’s not tragic — but now it’s almost becoming common, some former players with some form of brain problems,� Birk said. “Is it something that I think about? Yeah, abso-

lutely. There’s a little bit of, ‘Well, it’s not going to happen to me.’�

Duerson was successful in private food-related business in the decade after he retired, but he had encountered significant financial and family problems in recent years. In 2005, he resigned from the Notre Dame board of trustees after he was charged with pushing his wife, Alicia. The next year, he sold most of his company’s assets at auction. In 2007, the Duersons filed for divorce, and their home in Highland Park, Ill., went into foreclosure, according to The Chicago Sun-Times.

Duerson relocated to South Florida and through his union activities remained heavily involved with issues regarding former NFL players. Last spring, he attended a gathering of veterans in Fort Lauderdale held by the Gay Culverhouse Players’ Outreach Program, an organization founded by Culverhouse, the former Tampa Bay Buccaneers president, to help league retirees apply for medical and pension benefits.

Mitchell Welch, the organization’s vice president, said that when discussion that day turned to the 88 Plan — the program for players with dementia — some veterans’ minds wandered, some appearing as if the topic of mental decline did not apply to them. Duerson walked to the front of the room and asked to say some words to the players, which Welch, in a telephone interview Sunday, said he now would never forget. “I’m Dave Duerson,� Welch recalled Duerson saying. “Pay attention to what this guy’s telling you. Because it’s stuff you’re going to need to know.�

Continued from D1 Players who began their careers knowing the likely costs to their knees and shoulders are only now learning about the cognitive risks, too. After years of denying or discrediting evidence of football’s impact on the brain — from CTE in deceased players to an increasing number of retirees found to have dementia or other memory-related disease — the NFL has spent the last year addressing the issue, mostly through changes in concussion management and playing rules.

The NFL has also donated $1 million to Boston University’s Center for the Study of Traumatic Encephalopathy, the research group that will soon examine Duerson’s brain.

Duerson sent text messages to his family before he shot himself specifically requesting that his brain be examined for damage, two persons aware of the messages said. Another person close to Duerson, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said Duerson had commented to him in recent months that he might have CTE, an incurable disease linked to depression, impaired impulse control and cognitive decline.

Members of Duerson’s family declined an interview request through a family friend.

Duerson was a four-time Pro Bowl safety, primarily for the Bears. He was part of the 1985 Chicago team’s famed 46 defense that led the Bears to their only Super Bowl championship, and he was a member of the Giants team that won the Super

at 6 p.m. In the girls first round, Bend High is set to host Marshfield on Wednesday. A time has not yet been announced.

The second round of the 5A play-in games will be played this weekend, with the winners of those games advancing to postseason play.

Rob Kerr / The Bulletin

Shimano makes this winter-specific cycling shoe that has insulation, is wind/waterproof and has a high ankle wrap.

The Bulletin takes a look at shoes in the winter as part of our weekly “Cycling Insider� feature, which rotates topics include rider profiles, safety tips, local ride recommendations and gear reviews.

Some cyclists know no offseason. And for those of you year-round types who brave bone-chilling temperatures and wet or snowy roads and trails to get a cycling fix, your feet may be suffering unnecessarily.

Despite the cold, many cyclists can maintain a comfortable foot temperature just by slipping on neoprene booties or toe covers over their regular cycling shoes.

But for many of us, this extra layer of protection just doesn’t cut it, and numb toes turn an otherwise pleasant day on the bike into a day of torture for the tootsies. So for those all-season cyclists with chronically cold feet, consider investing in a pair of winter cycling shoes.

Cycling shoemakers such as Shimano, Sidi, Louis Garneau, Lake and Pearl Izumi all offer winter cycling shoes at prices that range from $140 to $270.

Several of the products I examined looked more like a cross-country ski boot or hiking boot than a typical low-profile cycling shoe — and, of course, that’s what makes them so nice and toasty in the cold.

Jody Jacobson, an avid winter cyclist and sales associate at Sunnyside Sports in Bend, explained to me that cold-weather cycling shoes generally fit higher on the ankles so that they better protect a rider’s feet from the elements. She also mentioned that the sole of the cold-weather shoe is softer and has more flex, making for more comfortable walking and better traction off the bike.

For the best protection, she recommended looking for a winter cycling shoe with Gore-Tex or other waterproofing material on the outside and insulation on the inside. That combination of water- and windproofing, plus insulation, is the ticket to warm toes in cool or inclement weather.

With winter cycling shoes, “you’re able to ride longer in variable weather conditions,� Jacobson said. “I was in Oakridge during a snowstorm last week, and it went from 55 degrees to snow to rain and my feet weren’t cold. I was riding with people in regular bike shoes and they were frozen solid.�

In addition to winter cycling shoes, Jacobson suggested that feet can be kept warm by wearing wool socks, which she noted will hold heat even when wet.

Neoprene shoe covers — which run approximately $50 a pair and slip over a rider’s regular cycling shoes — can feel heavy and weighted down once they become wet, and they can tear when riders walk on them. “I would rip the heck out of them in two seasons (mountain bike) riding at Horse Ridge,� said Jacobson.

For those who want to avoid shoe covers but are not ready to invest in winter cycling shoes, consider a pair of Gore-Tex socks. At $50, these waterproof socks fit inside a rider’s regular cycling shoes and feel like a soft-shell jacket. One drawback is that they can take up a lot of volume in an already tight-fitting shoe. “I’ve used those (Gore-Tex socks) to keep my feet warm, and they do a decent job,� said Jacobson. “And you have the freedom of (not covering) the bottom of your shoes, so they’re not a bad answer.� —Heather Clark

D6 Monday, February 21, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

Teamwork Continued from D1 Continue reading to learn more about Central Oregon’s wide variety of bike-racing teams:

BendBroadband/ WebCyclery Cycling Team About the team: Elite male masters (35 and older) who compete in road races Primary sponsors: BendBroadband, WebCyclery, Gecko Solutions (a professional business cleaning service) Number of team members: seven Team goals for 2011: Winning races, having fun and promoting a healthy lifestyle through road cycling are the team’s primary goals for the upcoming race season, says team member Brian Seguin. Seguin says the seven-man team is especially looking forward to competing against the nation’s top masters at the Masters Road National Championships, which will be staged in Bend this summer and next.

Wh e re to wa tch : Locally, in the Cascade Stage Race, the NorthWest Crossing Criterium and the High Desert Omnium, as well as in the Oregon Bicycle Racing Criterium Championships and the masters road nationals, all slated for this summer in Central Oregon.

T e a mme mb e rsh ip : At this time, the team is not accepting new riders and does not plan to in the near future. “If we were to add anything to the BendBroadband team in the future,” says Seguin, “it’ll probably be a women’s team.” Ed Micek, a team member and manager at WebCyclery, can respond to inquires regarding potential new riders.

Also: The BendBroadband team plans to donate 100 percent of its 2010 winnings (a figure that Seguin says will be matched

by BendBroadband, the company) to Commute Options to purchase and donate bike helmets for schoolchildren. “We’d love to head up some kind of charity ride in the future or put on some kind of clinic for beginners,” Seguin adds.

“This is just our second year and we’re still trying to establish who we are and what we stand for, aside from just racing bikes.” News updates and photos of the BendBroadband/WebCyclery team can be found on the team’s Facebook page.

Bend Endurance Academy (BEA) Cycling Team About the team: A junior, high school and U23 development team that competes in cyclocross, mountain biking and single-day road races.

Number of team members: Approximately 65 riders on the development squad; 12 riders on the competition team.

Where to watch: BEA riders expect to travel to more than 30 races across Oregon this year while competing in all local cross-country mountain bike, road and cyclocross races. BEA also offers a mountain bike freeride program for dirtjumping and advanced trail riding, whose participants are expected to compete this summer.

About the riders: “This is a team for young riders who want individual support from full-time coaches while being able to travel as a team and compete in a variety of disciplines,” says BEA cycling director Bill Warburton. “Our riders start on the dirt at age 6, then begin cyclocross at 10 and can try road racing once they’re 12. Our riders vary from total beginners to those trying to make the U.S. National Development Team.”

Team membership: Open anytime. BEA offers cycling programs 10 months out of the year, and some loaner equipment is available. Riders can register or learn more about the team at www. bendenduranceacademy.org.

Also: “The majority of the riders on our team are not racers,” says Warburton.

“We spend the bulk of our time learning skills and having fun. Racing is encouraged for those who choose it.”

New membership: The Bloom Racing roster for the upcoming mountain bike season is closed, but new riders may be added this spring and summer for the fall cyclocross season. Potential new riders, who are considered on a caseby-case basis, should e-mail dkrause@ bendbroadband.com.

Also: Bloom Racing recently signed a deal with Rise Up, a local nonprofit clothing company that designs and markets T-shirts to support educational and humanitarian causes, to become the team’s new title sponsor by this fall. Says team captain David Krause: “As a part of our sponsorship deal, the team will become a registered nonprofit and we’ll be partnering with Rise Up to market a line of bike-themed clothing with profits benefiting World Bicycle Relief and local bike-related charities.”

BoneYard Cycling About the team: A competitive, coed, allcomers team that competes in mountain bike, cyclocross and road racing. “We are competitive and enjoy racing,” says team captain Andy Barram. “However, our focus is creating a fun environment to enjoy riding bikes with one another whether elite or beginner.

Primary sponsors: BoneYard Beer, Focus Physical Therapy, Todd Schock Facial and Oral Surgery.

Cascade Couriers About the team: A coed mountain bike, cyclcross and road racing team; a range of casual to competitive riders. “Some of us are just in it for the free beer and camaraderie and some are pretty serious,” says team captain Daniel Brewster.
