School transfers a disputed point in Redmond By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

REDMOND — The relationship has been cordial between the Redmond School District and the unions representing much of its staff as the groups begin working to cover a roughly $10 million budget shortfall. But during a recent Redmond School Board meeting, a potential bump appeared when the issue of inter-district transfers was discussed. The district plans to allow students to transfer, but the unions oppose that plan. The issue has become contentious over the last few years as the district, like many others, repeatedly has faced multimillion-dollar budget shortfalls. Redmond has made some of the most dramatic cuts in the region, including adopting a four-day school week for the 2009-10 academic year. This year, the district has gotten the earliest start in the region on its budget process and has tried to involve as many staffers as possible. The transfer issue puts the district’s traditional open policy up against the current fiscal crisis. Districts are largely funded by the state on a perstudent rate, and each student who transfers from Redmond costs the district about $6,000. The loss of this money worries the unions. Superintendent Shay Mikalson wants to continue allowing transfers, but with a tightened enforcement of the district’s transfer policy. That may include exit interviews for transferring families, though how that would work has not been finalized. Judy Newman, the Redmond Education Association president, warned that open transfers could become an issue during the budget discussions. “I believe it is going to impact (union members’) decision-making when they’re asked for concessions,” Newman said during the meeting.

Carol Johnson Bryant, a key figure in the Bend theater community both on stage and off, died Friday afternoon after being hospitalized for pneumonia. She was 85. “It was several things,” said son Andy Hickman. “Somewhere in the last three or four weeks, she had a mild heart attack. Add to that emphysema and diabetes. … Add to that pneumonia, add to that 85 years old, poor nutrition and dehydration. Right up until the final seconds she was still baffling science.” Hickman, a comedian and actor in Portland, says he inherited an irreverent sense of humor from his mother, who is remembered by friends for her sharp wit and, of course, her love of theater. Co-founder of Community Theatre of the Cascades in 1978, Bryant was often referred to as “the grand dame of theater,” said Dee Torrey, retired executive and artistic director of CTC. The license plate of her red Chevy Monte Carlo, which read “THEATR,” announced it as well. See Bryant / A4

Damon Terrell speaks to protesters Sunday at the state Capitol in Madison, Wis. Protests to the governor’s bill to eliminate collective bargaining rights for many state workers have lasted two weeks.

The congresswoman wears a helmet designed with colors of the Arizona flag when she goes to therapy. With it off, her friends say, she looks like herself. Her hair is growing back; the wounds on her head are healing. She listens, smiles and frowns at appropriate moments. She speaks single words even though she cannot yet carry on a conversation. The friends who’ve come to Rep. Gabrielle Giffords’ room at TIRR Memorial Hermann Hospital in Houston say she’s getting better every day. They can tell that she recognizes them; her eyes brighten when they enter, and sometimes she tears up when they leave. Healing proceeds in small steps — not just in the hospital but also in Giffords’ office in Tucson. See Giffords / A6

As Wisconsin’s governor and public employees square off in the biggest public-sector labor showdown since Ronald Reagan fired striking air traffic controllers in 1981, unions in a range of states are weighing whether to give ground on wages, benefits and work rules to preserve basic bargaining rights. It is not yet clear whether Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin will succeed in his quest to strip public employee unions of most of their bargaining rights. But by simply pressing the issue so hard, he has already won major concessions that would have been unthinkable just a month ago. Some of Wisconsin’s major public-sector unions, faced with what they see as a threat to their existence, have decided to accept concessions that they had been vigorously fighting: They said they would agree to have more money deducted from workers’ paychecks to go toward their pensions and health benefits.

The dinosaurs didn’t know it, but their world might have narrowly averted upheaval this month. For two years, all the denizens of Webosaurs, an online virtual world for children 5 to 12, could customize their dinosaur avatars with leather armor and other whimsical outfits. Recently, though, the Webosaurs founder, Jacques Panis, decided that leather armor should be available only to premium members, who pay about $6 a month. Players with free membership would be denied that attire. Then the Metaverse Mod Squad stepped in. The company employs moderators around the country who monitor the Webosaurs site to keep its users safe and happy. In this instance, it told Webosaurs that if the change were made, the free users might abandon the Webosaurs world or turn on one another. In the end, the dinosaurs kept their armor, and Webosaurs avoided the possibility of alienating some of its 1.5 million registered users. “I’m running a business, but Metaverse Mod Squad, as the moderators and community managers, is the voice of the kids,” Panis says. Since starting Metaverse in 2007, Amy Pritchard, its chief executive, has emerged as an industry expert in creating safe, engaging online communities for both children and grown-ups.

Handling kids with care Metaverse has a client list that includes the Cartoon Network, the National Football League, Nickelodeon and the State Department. It employs an army of workers — often stay-at-home moms — to monitor and moderate websites where children create their own characters, or avatars, and can interact with thousands of other users. Metaverse’s employees frequently create their own avatars to help maintain the peace. Pritchard says the stakes are higher in online worlds intended for children, like Webosaurs. In more adult-oriented sites like Second Life, users must be at least 16 and are presumably more equipped to deal with the threats of online interaction. She has found that keeping children safe has a lot to do with keeping them entertained. “If you just release kids into these online playgrounds with no one to monitor them and no rules, it’s ‘Lord of the Flies,’” she says. “But if you can balance safety with fun and engage the kids, I guarantee you’ll have a site with a great group of kids and no cyberbullying.” She stumbled onto a business idea while exploring the virtual world of Second Life with her husband, Ron, who had taken a job at Linden Lab, Second Life’s creator. Pritchard was taken with the breathtaking landscapes, elaborate buildings and whimsical avatars — from long-legged blond bombshells to blue giraffes — that users created for themselves. But she says she noticed that few users visited some of the elaborate environments created by major corporations because the companies offered nothing to do there. “Companies had no idea how to create relationships in 3-D,” she says. Pritchard, however, knew exactly how to make friends online. As a side job, she had moderated message boards for the WB television network and had struck up close friendships with several other moderators. After introducing them to Second Life, she persuaded five of her moderator friends to create avatars and join her regularly at a Second Life virtual sports bar called the Thirsty Tiger. There, Pritchard struck up a friendship with the bar’s creator, Mike Pinkerton, a real-life lawyer in New Orleans. One night in July 2007, she ran this idea past him: What about a virtual company, providing remote moderators to staff Second Life sites for corporations, and to moderate Web forums? Pinkerton signed on as

Amy Pritchard, the chief executive of Metaverse Mod Squad, a company that moderates traffic on websites, works on her computer with her daughter, Mary, 5, at the company’s headquarters in Sacramento, Calif. The company employs moderators around the country who monitor a variety of websites to keep their users safe, happy and free of cyberbullies. chief operating officer of the fledgling business. Pritchard soon had a chance to test the method against a far more demanding audience: children. While Second Life thrives on a free-wheeling, anything-goes culture, a different breed of virtual world began to proliferate soon after Pritchard started her company. The sudden growth of Club Penguin, acquired by the Walt Disney Co. in late 2007, spawned a galaxy of virtual worlds for children. Suddenly Barbie, Build-a-Bear, Webkinz and countless other toys, games and entertainment properties had their own mini-universes, where children could create avatars, play with one another, care for virtual pets and furnish virtual dream homes. The rise of social media, meanwhile, produced another explosion in social games like Zynga’s FarmVille, where players create characters and play cooperatively. Putting children into these social environments raises risks of predators, privacy breaches, inappropriate conversations and bullying. “Anybody can buy a profanity filter, but kids have all kinds of work-arounds,” says Anne Collier, co-director of connectsafely.org, which promotes the well-being of children. “There really is no substitute for human moderation.” But not all companies can afford, or have the expertise, to hire an in-house moderation team, and they prefer to outsource to Metaverse or a handful of similar firms, including LiveWorld and ICUC.

pigskins for waiting patiently. Still, outsourcing moderation does not work well for every company. Melissa Parrish, an analyst at Forrester Research specializing in interactive marketing, said a possible drawback of outsourced moderating was that “you have someone who’s not embedded in your company talking as if they are.” To avoid losing touch with their users, some clients, like Webosaurs, insist on having a Metaverse manager working in the clients’ own offices, rather than managing the moderation remotely. “The manager sits right here, and is involved in our ongoing development efforts,” said Panis of Webosaurs, which is based in Dallas and owned by Reel FX. Employing an entire team of its

own in-house moderators, he says, would not be cost-effective.

Many moderators To staff a project, Metaverse assigns a manager, one of the company’s 115 regular employees, to oversee it. Managers then draw on a pool of 500 prescreened moderators around the country, many of whom are stay-at-home parents, students and others with flexible schedules. The pool gives Metaverse quick access to moderators with expertise in a wide array of subjects, from the NFL to Harry Potter. For one project, the company had to find people to judge user-submitted rap videos for a contest sponsored by a major record label. “We needed people who knew specifi-

cally about East Coast and West Coast rap, and would recognize gang signs” so they would not be shown, Pritchard says. Because she started Metaverse as a way to spend more time with her daughter, the company endorses a family-friendly culture, and does not require specific hours, even for its regular employees. Until a year ago, the company didn’t even have an office. Instead, the staff met regularly in its swanky virtual headquarters in Second Life London. Now, 35 employees work out of Metaverse’s brickwalled studio in Sacramento or from a small office in New York. The rest work from home. In the last year, Pritchard has found that Metaverse’s approach to dealing with children also works for customer service, which companies increasingly provide via corporate Facebook pages, Twitter feeds or other social media forums. Companies including Kabam, the social game developer, and Horizon DataSys, the data recovery firm, have hired Metaverse to provide online customer service. For social media support, interactions between moderators and customers occur in text, via instant messages, Facebook or email. That makes these exchanges easy to monitor, says Charlene Li, founder of Altimeter, the technology research firm, and author of “Open Leadership: How Social Technology Can Transform the Way You Lead.” “With a call center, you can only monitor about 5 percent of your calls,” she says. “Here you can monitor every single one, and if the tone isn’t quite right, you can correct it immediately.” While customer service and children’s virtual play may seem worlds apart, both ultimately come down to respectful communication in a social environment. “They hire us,” Pritchard says, “because we know how to have conversations when millions of people may be listening.”

Second chances Pritchard’s approach to child safety is more camp counselor than cop. When children misbehave, Metaverse moderators send a private message to the miscreant, with a warning. Repeat offenders may receive a five-minute muted timeout or can be ejected from a site. “Our policy is firm forgiveness,” Pritchard says. “Sometimes kids, and adults, too, come into a new environment and feel nervous or scared, and get attention by saying something inappropriate. By giving a warning or turning it into a joke and saying, ‘Come join us,’ you’ve given them a second chance to be part of the community.” Many companies have found Metaverse’s combination of surveillance and social direction appealing, both from a safety perspective and from a brand-management point of view. In the NFL Rush Zone, the league’s virtual world, Metaverse avatars in striped referee shirts greet children with high-fives and hand out pigskins, the game’s virtual currency. “For many of the kids, that conversation between their avatar and the referee is their first connection with the NFL,” says Peter O’Reilly, the league’s vice president for fan strategy and marketing. “We needed a safe space that promoted the values of the NFL and moderators who were passionate about the teams.” Recently, when a live chat with Drew Brees, the quarterback of the New Orleans Saints, was delayed by 45 minutes, Metaverse referees pacified some 10,000 restless children with trivia contests and games, then rewarded them with

T S As regimes topple, al-Qaida sees history fly by By Scott Shane New York Times News Service

Chris Carlson / The Associated Press

From left: Emile Sherman, Gareth Unwin, Colin Firth and Iain Canning celebrate after winning the award for best picture for “The King’s Speech” at the 83rd Academy Awards.

For nearly two decades, the leaders of al-Qaida have denounced the Arab world’s dictators as heretics and puppets of the West and called for their downfall. Now, people in country after country have risen to topple their leaders — and al-Qaida has played absolutely no role. In fact, the motley opposition movements that have appeared so suddenly and proved so powerful have shunned the two central tenets of the al-Qaida credo: murderous violence and religious fanaticism. The demonstrators have used force defensively, treated Islam as an afterthought and embraced democracy, which

A N A LY S I S is anathema to Osama bin Laden and his followers. So for al-Qaida — and perhaps no less for American policies built around the threat it poses — the democratic revolutions that have gripped the world’s attention are a crossroads. Will the terrorist network shrivel slowly to irrelevance? Or will it find a way to exploit the chaos produced by political upheaval and the disappointment that will inevitably follow hopes now raised so high? For many specialists on terrorism and the Middle East, though not all, the past few weeks have the makings of an epochal di-

saster for al-Qaida, making the jihadists look like ineffectual bystanders to history while offering young Muslims an appealing alternative to terrorism. “So far — and I emphasize so far — the score card looks pretty terrible for al-Qaida,” said Paul Pillar, who studied terrorism and the Middle East for nearly three decades at the CIA and is now at Georgetown University. “Democracy is bad news for terrorists. The more peaceful channels people have to express grievances and pursue their goals, the less likely they are to turn to violence.” If the terrorists network’s leaders hope to seize the moment, they have been slow off the mark.

Bin Laden has been silent. His Egyptian deputy, Ayman al-Zawahri, has issued three rambling statements from his presumed hide-out in the Pakistan-Afghanistan border region that seemed oddly out of sync with the news, not noting the ouster of President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt, whose government detained and tortured Zawahri in the 1980s. “Knocking off Mubarak has been Zawahri’s goal for more than 20 years, and he was unable to achieve it,” said Brian Fishman, a terrorism expert at the New America Foundation. “Now a nonviolent, nonreligious, prodemocracy movement got rid of him in a matter of weeks. It’s a major problem for al-Qaida.”

‘King’s Speech’ leads pack, and Rebel forces in Libya gain Leo gets bleeped firepower and defectors By David Germain The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — “The King’s Speech” was crowned best picture Sunday at an Academy Awards ceremony as precise as a state coronation. The monarchy drama won an expected four Oscars, and predictable favorites claimed acting honors. Colin Firth as stammering British ruler George VI in “The King’s Speech” earned the bestactor prize, while Natalie Portman won best actress as a delusional ballerina in “Black Swan.” The boxing drama “The Fighter” captured both supporting-acting honors, for Christian Bale as a boxer-turned-drug-abuser and Melissa Leo as a boxing clan’s domineering matriarch. “The King’s Speech” also won the directing prize for Tom Hooper and the original-screenplay Oscar for David Seidler, a boyhood stutterer himself. “I have a feeling my career has just peaked,” Firth said. “I’m afraid I have to warn you that I’m experiencing stirrings somewhere in the upper abdominals which are threatening to form themselves into dance moves.” Among those Portman beat was Annette Bening for “The Kids Are All Right.” Bening now has lost all four times she’s been nominated. “Thank you so much,” Portman said. “This is insane, and I truly, sincerely wish that the prize tonight was to get to work with my fellow nominees. I’m so in awe of you.” Network censors bleeped Leo for dropping the F-word during her speech, saying that “it looked so (expletive) easy” when she saw Kate Winslet accept her award at a previous show. Backstage, she jokingly conceded it was “probably a very inappropriate place to use that particular word.” “Those words, I apologize to anyone that they offend. There is a great deal of the English language that is in my vernacular,” Leo said. Bale joked that he was keeping his language clean. “I’m not going to drop the F-bomb like she did,” he said. “I’ve done that plenty of times before.” But the Oscars, being a global affair, were telecast elsewhere in the world with Leo’s words uncensored. Viewers who watched the show on Star Movies, a major channel available throughout Asia, heard the F-word loud and clear. The best-picture win for “The King’s Speech” was the first for

“Start Something New!” Just In Sublime Yarn

By David D. Kirkpatrick and Kareem Fahim New York Times News Service

ZAWIYAH, Libya — The Libyan rebels challenging Col. Moammar Gadhafi demonstrated their increasing military coordination and firepower Sunday, as defecting officers in the east took steps to establish a unified command while their followers in this rebel-held city, just outside the leader’s stronghold in the capital, displayed an array of tanks, Kalashnikovs and anti-aircraft guns. In a further sign of their strength, the rebels also talked about tapping revenue from the vast Libyan oil resources now under their control — estimated by some oil company officials to be about 80 percent of the country’s total. And in recognition of the insurrection’s growing power, Italy’s foreign minister suspended a nonaggression treaty with Libya on the grounds that the Libyan state “no longer exists.” Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said the United States was reaching out to the rebels to “offer any kind of assistance.” The most striking display of strength was seen here, 30 miles from Gadhafi’s Tripoli redoubt. Zawiyah is one of several cities near the capital controlled by rebels, who have repulsed repeated attempts by Gadhafi’s forces to retake them. And the arsenal they displayed helped to explain how the rebels held Zawiyah. The opposition’s display came as a global effort to isolate Gadhafi and possibly force his resignation gained momentum over the weekend, with the U.N. Security Council moving to impose punitive financial sanctions and NATO allies discussing steps that included a possible no-fly zone over Libya. The maneuverings by both sides suggested they were girding for a confrontation that could influence the shape of other protest movements and the responses of other

A man waves a flag that represented Libya before Col. Moammar Gadhafi’s 1969 coup on Sunday in Benghazi, Libya. Though rebels are showing increased strength and are talking of tapping revenue from the country’s oil resources, leadership remains fractured, with top opposition figures debating who will lead a transitional government. rulers who feel threatened by insurrections. Despite Clinton’s offer of aid, the rebels still seemed far way from the kind of unity that might allow them to start serious talks with foreign governments or international agencies. Clinton herself said any talk of recognizing a provisional government was premature. On Saturday, the country’s former justice minister, Mustafa Mohamed Abd al-Jalil, said in an interview on Al-Jazeera that he would head a transitional government, with the aim of holding elections within three months. But on Sunday, another figure in the rebel movement, Abdel-Hafidh Ghoga, seemed to dismiss that claim, saying a national council had been formed to manage the “day to day living” of the “liberated” territories. The Gadhafi government implicitly acknowledged for the first time Sunday that it feared elements of its military falling into rebel hands, as Gadhafi’s son Seif said in the television in-

terview that the Libyan government had bombed its own ammunitions depots in the east. And Gen. Ahmed el-Gatrani, a former senior commander who now leads the rebel forces, said his troops were awaiting a call for support from the capital. “Our brothers in Tripoli say: ‘We are fine so far, we do not need help.’ If they ask for help we are ready to move,” he told Reuters. Many rebels in the west, howev-

er, said they believed el-Gatrani was trying to hide the true rebel plans. Ghoga, for his part, vowed Sunday that Tripoli and other Libyan cities would be liberated using “our national army.”

Unions

Transfers

Continued from A1 But Walker is not settling for that. He said that those concessions were “an interesting development, because a week ago they said that’s not acceptable.” In Tennessee, where teachers are fighting a bill that would repeal the 1978 law that gave them the right to bargain collectively, they have already signaled that they would be willing to make some concessions on tenure, said Jerry Winters, the manager of government relations for the Tennessee Education Association, which represents 52,000 teachers. And he said that contract negotiations could be tough in the current atmosphere. “When you’re fighting to keep the very right to have collective bargaining, it’s going to have some impact on what you do in your bargaining,” Winters said.

Continued from A1 In an e-mail the following day, Newman expanded on her comments, writing, “While we may support giving people options that meet their individual needs, a $9.8 million shortage does not allow us this luxury without impacting the quality we have in Redmond.” The discussion that inspired Newman’s comment happened when the board said it supported Mikalson’s new approach. Under the district’s policy, transfers are allowed for six reasons, including overcrowding and particular academic needs. For Mikalson, the issue is a philosophical one: He believes the district should allow transfers because school choice should be a parent’s right. “I believe in and support parent choice as a critical component of the educational system,” he wrote in an e-mail to The Bulletin. “Choice empowers stakeholders and encourages competition for improvement.” Mikalson also argued the transfer cost is not as high as it appears because of a quirk in the state’s school funding formula. When a district projects a drop in enrollment, the state funds it on the previous year’s student population. That policy is designed to allow districts a year to prepare for reduced funding. Redmond expects to lose about 100 students next year, so, under the rule, it will be funded in 2011-12 as if it had not lost any students. For the district to see higher funding

GOP in control The sudden spate of bills seeking to eliminate or weaken collective bargaining — and the fierce protests by unions trying to preserve those rights — are largely a product of November’s elections. Those elections brought a new class of conservative Republican governors to power, including Walker and Gov. John Kasich of Ohio, who is also taking aim at collective bargaining rights. Republicans won control of both houses of 25 state legislatures, up from 14 before. Now some of those newly powerful Republicans have decided to check the power of public sector unions, saying that they have long used their political influence to win wages and benefits that the lawmakers believe are not affordable. Democrats, however, see the anti-union bills as an effort to weaken organized labor, which has long been one of their major sources of support. Several Republicans seeking to overhaul labor laws said that they felt strong constituent support for taking on public-sector unions. These unions have lost considerable popular support in recent years from private-sector workers, many of whom no longer enjoy the job protection, health benefits and, especially, pension plans that many state and local workers still have. Walker, who has called publicsector workers “haves” and private-sector workers “have-nots,” said in an interview last week that he was looking for a longterm solution to Wisconsin’s budget problems. “We’re asking for a reasonable amount from state and local workers,” he said, “and most people in the private sector will say what we’re asking for is pretty modest.” Robert Reich, who was secretary of labor in the Clinton administration, said that he sees the effort to curtail bargaining rights as a politically motivated act by

Bryant Continued from A1 Bryant was born Carol Johnson on May 8, 1925, in Eugene. As a child, she moved back and forth between Oregon and Minnesota, where she and friends would stage plays in the basement of her home. After graduating from high school in Medford in 1942, she spent time in Los Angeles and New York, where she was active in theater. She moved with her family to Bend in 1972, according to Hickman. “She was involved in theater from the minute she arrived in Bend,” said friend Janis Sharpe, a former chair at CTC. “The first month she was here, she went down to audition.” The first local production Bryant worked on was “Night of January 16th,” produced by Central Oregon Community College’s Magic Circle Theatre. In a 2008 feature about CTC’s 30th anniversary season, Bryant said that CTC began after a summer dinner theater production of Woody Allen’s “Don’t Drink the Water.” For the show, “I sat on the front stoop at Le Bistro, shooting off a gun. Of course it was blanks, but not even a pause as people whizzed down Third Street,” Bryant told The Bulletin. The production was a hit, and she soon hatched CTC with partner Gene Reinbold. Its first production was “Romanoff,” rehearsed without heat in a church basement and performed in a school gym. “It was,” Bryant said in 2008, “so much fun, and so much work, and so exciting.” She continued directing until 2006, when she broke her femur in a fall outside 2nd Street Theater in Bend. “You know, they say ‘break a leg’ all the time. I fi-

Scott Wallace, of Merrill, Wis., left, leads chants as about 600 demonstrators march down Central Avenue Sunday in Marshfield, Wis., to protest Wisconsin Gov. Walker’s proposed bill that will strip most public workers of their collective bargaining rights. Republican governors. “Wisconsin state workers have already signaled their willingness to give the governor what he wants in concessions — they just don’t want to give up the right to bargain,” said Reich, one of the more liberal voices in the Clinton White House. “We’re likely to see the same pattern across the country. This is exactly the pattern we’ve seen over the last 20 years in the private sector.” But some labor leaders said the governors are overreaching, and would create a measure of public sympathy for government employees’ unions by shifting the conversation from whether they earn overly generous benefits to whether they should have the right to negotiate at all. “I think it’s been a galvanizing force, a seminal moment for American labor,” said Gerald McEntee, the president of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees.

Wisconsin’s impact Art Pulaski, the chief officer of the California State Labor Federation, said he thought that Walker had simply gone too far. “For Republicans in other states, what’s happening in Wisconsin may encourage them to take a harsher stance in bargaining,” he said. “But for those with a more moderate stance, those not tied to the Republican strategy, I think they’re going to hold back, and say, ‘Wait a minute. The response is so vigorous and spontaneous and strong, we have to be careful how far we go on this.’” But focusing national attention on public employees’ benefits could put unions on the defensive in many states. Thomas Kochan, a professor of industrial relations at the Sloan School of Management at the Massachusetts Insti-

nally thought, ‘I’ll do it,’” she told The Bulletin in 2008. In all she directed some 58 plays at CTC, and remained active with the theater in later years, serving on the play selection committee and attending opening night of every production she could get to. “She loved to be house manager on opening night and welcome everyone to her theater,” Sharpe said. Bryant’s last night serving as house manager was at the start of the 2010-11 season, for the drama “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” According to Carole Hansen, Bryant’s friend and longtime assistant director, Bend’s grand dame of theater acquired a bijon frise about four years ago and rechristened it “Hamlet.” Bryant was also active in her church, founding the Family Kitchen meal program at Trinity Episcopal Church. As a cook during those dinners, Bryant always received compliments on her sloppy Joes and beef stew, says Hansen. Bryant is survived by two sons, Andy and Tim Hickman, and two grandchildren, Henry and Daisy Caldwell-Hickman. A service for Bryant will be held at Trinity Episcopal Church, 469 N.W. Wall St., Bend, at 2 p.m. Monday, March 7. That’s matinee time, notes her son. “That’s important. Mom said that,” he said, laughing. On Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m., CTC, at 148 N.W. Greenwood Ave., will host an open house celebrating Bryant’s life. “If people want to come, if they’re to bring something: chocolate,” Hansen said. “She loved chocolate, and she loved red wine and Champagne, and we’re going to have all of those.” David Jasper can be reached at 541-383-0349 or at djasper@bendbulletin.com.

tute of Technology, says he thinks unions are recognizing reality. “There has to be a new bargain in the public sector on pension costs and health care costs, and to get out front on it,” he said. “That helps them take that issue off the table, and to focus on the issue of worker rights and the attack on unions.” Anti-union groups, seeing this as their moment, are urging governors not to settle for economic concessions, but to continue pushing to curb bargaining rights. Tim Phillips, the head of Americans for Prosperity — a conservative, free-market advocacy group that was created and financed in part by Charles and David Koch, billionaire brothers who support many conservative causes — said Walker should push for a “complete victory.” “If you just did the cuts to pension and benefits without the changes to collective bargaining,” Phillips said, “it helps in the short term, but over the long term, benefits will creep back up again.” Mayors — whose bargaining powers are often set by state law — have been watching the battle

closely. Several cities — including Newark and Camden, N.J. — were forced to lay off police officers when their unions failed to agree to concessions. In Toledo, Ohio, Mayor Michael P. Bell is watching the debate with added interest. As a young Toledo firefighter, Bell was laid off for a year before he was rehired, eventually rising to fire chief. When he took office last year as an independent, he faced a $48 million deficit. He closed part of it by winning concessions from the unions, after threatening to impose them unilaterally by invoking a little-used law that allows mayors to do so in cases of “exigent circumstances.” Now, he said, he supports collective bargaining rights, but wants to find a way to give the city the power to alter contracts in demonstrably hard times. “In local governments and even in our school system, there’s no ability to hit a reset button — the only option that a lot of cities have is to lay off a large amount of people,” Bell said. “Nobody’s going to come to your city if you don’t have police officers, or firefighters, or you’re not picking up your trash.”

than it projects, it would have to gain at least 101 students — or see a year-to-year enrollment jump. One way to gain those students back would be to shut off transfers. This year, the district lost about 170 more transfer students than it received. Considering the funding rule, if the district were able to bring all of those transfers back, Redmond schools would see an increase in funding for 70 students — not 170 — because of how state funding works. In that scenario, the district would gain 70 students over this year, an increase that would translate to about $400,000. Board member Cathy Miller has long raised concerns about the cost of transfers, but she backed Mikalson’s plans. Miller said that in the end, Mikalson’s approach matches the district’s belief that it should allow students as many options as possible. If the best option for a student is in a Bend-La Pine school, so be it. Still, the district must do a better job to understand why people are leaving and to hold those back without a valid reason, Miller said. Though she was not happy to hear it, Miller appreciated that Newman was open about the union members’ position on transfers. “I was disheartened, but I understand because, as she said, everybody is struggling,” Miller said. “I appreciate that she’s being totally honest. We won’t get blindsided; we know it’s an issue.” Patrick Cliff can be reached at 541-633-2161 or at pcliff@bendbulletin.com.

C OV ER S T ORY

Giffords Continued from A1 Her staff tends to business while fitting in visits to therapists. The office of an aide slain in last month’s shootings sat vacant until recently, his colleagues too devastated to assign it to another staffer. Giffords’ staff believes she will fully recover. Each visitor brings back news of familiar gestures and words of recognition. “We are like a family, and this was uncharted territory,” said C.J. Karamargin, the congresswoman’s communications director. “In 200 years of representative government, no congressional staffer had ever been killed in the line of duty before. Never before had a female member of Congress been the target of an assassination attempt.” Giffords has not been told yet of her staff’s pain. Doctors advised shielding her from the larger trauma of the shootings, the deaths of six and all of the injuries. Inside Giffords’ hospital room this month, Rabbi Stephanie Aaron was stunned. Only weeks before, her friend had been shot through the head. Now, Giffords was singing verses of Don McLean’s “American Pie” with her family. Yet shortly afterward, Aaron noticed that Giffords struggled to say something and couldn’t find the right word. Aaron took her friend’s hand: “I said, ‘Gabby, it’s OK. Breathe. Just breathe.’ I wanted to let her know that this too shall pass and she will be OK.” Giffords’ ability to sing while still struggling to speak is one of the mysteries of traumatic brain injury. The brain function associated with singing centers on the right hemisphere; speaking comes largely from the left, where Giffords was shot. Therapists are working intensely to help Giffords regain her speech. Those who know Giffords best identify with her frustrations. The congresswoman has always been a talker. Rep. Adam Smith, D-Wash., remembers how she introduced herself: “She said, ‘My name is Gabby and there’s a reason for that.’” Smith said Giffords used her gift for gab last year to help him become the ranking Democrat on the House Armed Services Committee, on which they both sit as members. “I’ve been here 14 years, but she is a very social person who spoke

Images of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords and her husband, astronaut Mark Kelly, are among the photos on the wall of her hospital room in Houston. to a lot of fellow members for me, and it made an enormous difference,” he said. When he came to see her in Houston this month, he brought a flag from a group of Navy SEALs that she and Smith had visited last year. After she was shot, the SEALs dedicated a combat mission in Afghanistan to her and sent the flag they carried. It now hangs in her room. During his visit, Smith found their traditional roles reversed — he did all talking now. He related committee news and assured Giffords that her staff was working hard. He told her how much she was missed on Capitol Hill. Giffords reached out and hugged Smith. “She teared up when I said that,” he said.

In the aftermath On the day after Giffords was shot, a group of about 25 people, including staffers and their spouses, gathered at a Tucson home with Kristin Welsh-Simpson, a counselor from the House of Representatives who flew in to help. They were shellshocked, some weeping openly. Giffords was fighting for her life. Their colleague and director of community outreach, Gabriel Zimmerman, was dead. Two other staffers were in intensive care: district director Ron Barber and community outreach coordinator Pamela Simon. Other staffers and interns had witnessed the shootings. Questions loomed over the group: Why them? Why now? Welsh-Simpson told them they

might never get an answer. Over the next weeks, she said, they would feel anger, confusion, sadness, but each would react differently. One staffer already was suffering survivor’s guilt. The group decided that Giffords would want them to open their Tucson office at 8 a.m. the next day, but they were unprepared for what faced them. “The crush of media was unprecedented,” Karamargin said. “One day we had 900 media requests come in.” Days later, President Barack Obama came to town, stopping by to see the wounded congresswoman and her staffers. And then the funerals began. “We were on an emotional roller coaster,” Karamargin said. Welsh-Simpson stayed two weeks, helping anyone who needed to talk. “It was comforting to be together,” Karamargin said.

Lighter moments On a recent morning, Michael McNulty, a Tucson lawyer and Giffords’ campaign chairman, arrived at her room as she was being wheeled in from speech therapy. She was wearing the blue, red and yellow helmet, which protects the area where a piece of her skull was removed during surgery. The helmet comes off when she’s sitting in her room. He bent over and kissed her. “Gabby, I will get in trouble if I didn’t tell you that my mother and my sisters send warm greetings,” McNulty said. “And Claire. And Stan. And Judy. And Cathy and

Katherine and Linda. And Bunny and Mark and Joan …” Giffords laughed. “The list of people insisting I say hello was ridiculously long,” McNulty said later. “And she got how funny that was.” McNulty and his wife, Linda, later brought in sushi and Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, and Giffords ate unassisted. McNulty set up a slide show. Giffords seemed captivated by the images on the computer screen. Photographs of the Sonoran Desert and snow-capped mountains in Tucson flashed by, accompanied by music from her favorite local band, Calexico. “Her eyes lit up, and she seemed so into it,” McNulty said. Leaving that night, McNulty felt buoyed. He was hopeful because she was recovering faster than anyone predicted, and he fully expects to see her back in Congress. But he knows an arduous road lies ahead.

Difficult return One afternoon three weeks after the shooting, a small group of Giffords’ staffers returned to the crime scene at the Safeway in Tucson. None of them had been back since the killings. “It was very, very difficult,” said Mark Kimble, a Giffords spokesman. He had been there the morning of the shootings, standing eight feet away from Giffords when the shooter started firing. He saw Giffords and Zimmerman go down. During the return visit, he walked with his colleagues, Barber and Karamargin, recounting who stood where as the horror unfolded. The Safeway manager came out to see them. Bystanders at the nearby memorial of candles and flowers walked over to comfort them. “I’m still very fragile,” Kimble said later. “But it felt good to go back … not like last time, when people were lying all around, injured and worse.” Karamargin had not been there the day of the shootings, but he needed to see the crime scene. “It was like a light switch being flipped for me,” he said. “I needed to have Ron and Mark explain it to me. I needed to know the details.” Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., knew the healing power of friendship when she visited her friend Giffords in Houston. Three years ago, Wasserman Schultz underwent seven surgeries for breast cancer.

“Having been through a healthcare crisis myself,” she said, “I knew what I wanted — not to talk about what I was going through. I wanted my girlfriends to catch me up.” So Wasserman Schultz avoided medical questions and briefed Giffords on proposed Republican budget cuts, her kids and “normal girlfriend stuff.” Visits from friends lift her spirits, said Giffords’ chief of staff, Pia Carusone. The visits “remind her that she’s strong enough to get through this and her life is waiting for her on the other side,” she said. Wasserman Schultz said Giffords looks “fantastic.”

Remembrance On Thursday, six riderless horses led the 86th annual Rodeo Parade in Tucson. The horses carried large photographs of each shooting victim. In the stirrups, boots faced backward — one had children’s cowboy boots commemorating Christina Taylor Green, the 9-year-old girl who died. Giffords for years has ridden in the parade, a celebration of frontier culture that dates from 1925. This year, two staffers injured in the shootings — Barber and Simon — rode in a horse-drawn buggy while other staffers walked alongside waving American flags. Barber, who has not returned to the office, has had a difficult recovery from his two gunshot wounds. Simon, a retired teacher, was shot in the chest, and the bullet that lodged in her hip became infected. Doctors removed it and gave it to the FBI. On the day of the shooting, Simon was there early and texted Giffords to bring a sweater to ward off the chilly air. Simon saw the gunman fire at Giffords. Seconds later, shot twice, Simon fell facedown. At the parade, the crowd cheered when they saw Simon and Barber. A banner on the side of the buggy said, “Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords’ staff.” “We were touched to see the community love and support for Gabby’s healing. And our healing,” Simon said. Last week, Simon returned to work at Giffords’ Tucson office. The counselor from Washington had gone, but Simon and most of her colleagues continue to seek help from private therapists. Friday would have been Zimmerman’s 31st birthday. At the office, other staffers are slowly beginning to use his desk.

South Korea, U.S. begin annual drills amid North’s threats The Associated Press SEOUL, South Korea — South Korean and U.S. troops began annual military drills Monday that rival North Korea warned could trigger a nuclear war on the divided peninsula. Despite North Korean threats to retaliate, South Korea and the United States went ahead with the drills, which are the allies’ first major combined military exercises since the North shelled a front-line South Korean island in November, killing four people. That barrage came eight months after 46 sailors were killed when a South Korean warship was sunk, an attack that a Seoul-led investigation blamed on a North Korean torpedo; Pyongyang denies involvement. Animosity over the bloodshed drove ties between the Koreas to one of their lowest levels in decades. About 12,800 U.S. troops and some 200,000 South Korean soldiers and reservists are to participate in the drills, which are aimed at defending South Korea and responding to any attack. The main part of the drills, which will involve computer war games and live-firing exercises, will last 11 days, while some field training will continue until late April, according to the South Korea-U.S. joint forces command in Seoul. Hours after the exercises started, North Korea warned of a nuclear war on the peninsula. “It’s an anti-national scheme aimed at prolonging the stage of confrontation and tension to realize a plot to start a northward invasion,” the North’s main Rodong Sinmun newspaper said in a commentary carried by the official Korean Central News Agency. “The danger of a nuclear war on the Korean peninsula is deepening.”

Best

Supreme Court to hear Bend case

“If the government can overcome the Bill of Rights by claiming it’s really inconvenient, then there are no civil rights.”

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

Veterans’ group fracas has Bend ties • Posted Wednesday by Nick Budnick Attorney General John Kroger last week filed a lawsuit against Greg Warnock, founder of the Oregon War Veterans Association and the Military Family Support Foundation, claiming he diverted about $690,000 for his own use. The case has Bend veterans mobilizing to Warnock’s defense — and it has potential state and national implications. Bend’s Dick Tobiason, a Vietnam War veteran, notes that Warnock was the only activist to help Tobiason and Bend’s Robert D. Maxwell, the only living Medal of Honor recipient in Oregon, with their longstanding crusade to designate U.S. Highway 97 a “World War Two Veterans Historic Highway.” That effort led to a bill supported by the Central Oregon delegation becoming law last session. Tobiason and Maxwell are members of Warnock’s association. Tobiason says Warnock’s support was crucial, adding that “thanks to Greg Warnock’s testimony, we succeeded.” Kroger alleges that Warnock has, in addition to diverting funds, made unreported political contributions. Warnock’s group, however, has said Kroger is engaged in political retribution for its support of conservative causes. The case could get more interesting. One of the issues is that the association is a 501c(19) nonprofit. The designation, reserved for veterans’ causes, is the only type of nonprofit allowed to make political contributions. However, its nonprofit status means the sources of its funding are confidential. Last year, Jim Bopp, a conservative attorney who is prominent nationally for his work striking down contribution limits on free speech grounds, filed a federal lawsuit on behalf of the association to block Kroger from releasing association records to The Oregonian and Willamette Week. As these cases develop, it would be interesting to see where the group gets its money. It’s not from memberships, which are free, according to Tobiason. Former lawmaker and attorney general candidate Kevin Mannix has been among the recipients of funds from the association. Asked about the case, Mannix — who has been the subject of attorney general scrutiny over the sources of his own funding in the past — declined to comment.

School groups rally in Salem • Posted Tuesday by Lauren Dake One young student held up a sign that simply read, “Save me.” Hundreds of others helped fill out the picture, with painted signs urging lawmakers to protect education funding. Thousands of citizens, teachers, classified workers and students from around the state used their day off Monday to rally on the state Capitol’s steps. The annual event, organized by Stand for Children, an education advocacy organization, was called a “day to celebrate public education in Oregon” by one lawmaker. Such rallies are typical of budget season in Salem. This year, they may have a more desperate tone because the general fund budget is projected, by some measures, to have a roughly $3 billion shortfall. And although it was a “celebration” in some aspects, it took on some serious tones when it came to talk of increased class sizes and cutting school days. Educators said the governor’s proposed budget — $5.56 billion over the next two school years — will lead to more cuts. As in rallies occurring at state capitals throughout the nation, participants wore red to support public employees in Wisconsin, where lawmakers are threatening to cut compensation and collective bargaining rights.

The case, Camreta v. Greene, got its start in 2003, when a Bend man was arrested on suspicion of sexually abusing a 7-year-old boy. Upon receiving information suggesting the man also may have abused his two daughters,

a caseworker from the Oregon Department of Human Services and a Deschutes County Sheriff’s deputy interviewed one of the girls at her school.

According to court documents, Camreta said the girl

S Aquila, a female golden eagle, went blind and suffered brain damage after being struck by a car. Because of her injuries, she sometimes tilts her head at odd angles.

tanding on a cliff above Lake Billy Chinook on Sunday, Terrebonne couple Kim and Larry Pearcy peered into the cloudy landscape above them. With hands gripped to binoculars hanging from their necks, they scanned the milky sky for tiny flutters of darkness they hoped would be a soaring eagle. Once they thought they spotted one of the giant raptors, the binoculars would come up to their faces and they’d race to see who could identify it first.

Is it bald eagle? Is it golden? Or is it simply just a raven or hawk? They weren’t the only ones playing this game. In fact, hundreds of people spent this past weekend at Round Butte Overlook Park looking for eagles. They were there as part of Oregon State Parks’ annual Eagle Watch event. “We like to come to this, and it’s always exciting,” said Kim Pearcy, 51. “I grew up in the Midwest. We don’t have stuff like this.” Pearcy and her husband, both of Terrebonne, are definitely eagle enthusiasts. See Eagles / B5

La Pine weighs cost of recycling By Leon Pantenburg The Bulletin

La Pine — Just about everybody agrees recycling trash items is a good idea. The longterm goal is to keep materials out of landfills and reuse paper, tin, glass and plastics. But recycling, in some instances, may not be cost effective. That is what Wilderness Garbage and Recycling Service in La Pine has discovered, according to Stu Martinez, general manager of the company. But Wilderness intends to expand its recycling efforts by offering curbside recyclable pickup in the city of La Pine, he says, and will continue its current recycling dropoff program

at the company headquarters at 51420 Russell Road in La Pine. But La Pine city residents must decide how much they are willing to pay for curbside recycling. A survey asking that question was sent to about 500 city customers Friday with their monthly bills, according to company operations manager Andy Ewing. The company currently serves about 500 to 600 households within the La Pine city limits, he said, and about 3,000 in south Deschutes County. “We’re guessing the cost will be somewhere be between $3 and $4 per month, for bimonthly curbside recyclables pickup,” Ewing said.

A 37-year-old Bend man was arrested over the weekend on suspicion of raping a 23-year-old woman he had just met through an online dating site. Based on the arresting charges and i n fo r m a t io n provided by the Bend Police Depar tment, the alleged assault appears to have been Thomas Harry pa r t ic u la rly Bray brutal. According to police, the victim said she agreed to meet the suspect, Thomas Harry Bray, for a cocktail in downtown Bend on Friday night. The victim told police that after one drink she went with Bray back to his downtown apartment in the Franklin Crossing building. She told police that once they were inside the apartment, Bray forced her to perform sex acts with him over the course of a few hours. She told police she was physically assaulted. She received several non-life threatening injuries. Bend Police executed a search warrant at Bray’s apartment on Saturday and arrested him without incident. He is being held in the Deschutes County Jail on two counts each of firstdegree rape and first-degree sodomy. See Arrest / B5

Rain, snow to start off area’s week By Nick Grube The Bulletin

Central Oregonians can expect a dose of rain and snow early this week as a storm front passes through the area. Once the front moves through, the chance of further precipitation drops off significantly and temperatures are expected to rise. “As long as the folks dig in there for the beginning of the week, it looks to get progressively better the rest of the week,” said Rob Brooks, a forecaster with the National Weather Service in Pendleton. “You guys are looking at 45 degree temperatures through the mid-point of the week and 48 by the end of the week.” Today’s forecast calls for a 70 percent chance of rain or snow, with the snow level at 4,000 feet elevation. Winds are expected to be strong, coming in at 34 mph with gusts reaching nearly 50. Rain and snow are also likely Tuesday and into Wednesday, though temperatures are expected to increase from a 41-degree high Monday to 45 degrees Tuesday and Wednesday. See Weather / B5

Birds fly above the Old Mill against a twilit sky in Bend on Sunday evening.

Recycling Continued from B1 The standard monthly trash pickup rate in south Deschutes County for residential homes right now, he added, is $17.75. Initially, Deschutes County funded the hauling fees of free recycling dropoff bins in La Pine and Sisters, says Timm Schimke, director of the Deschutes County Department of Solid Waste, but budget constraints caused a cut in that funding in October 2010. That leaves Wilderness Garbage with the challenge of funding the operational costs of recycling. So far, La Pine’s recycling efforts have been a losing proposition, financially. “We might make a profit on recycling newsprint and cardboard, but on the other materials, we lose,” Ewing said. “We’ve never made money on recycling.” A free recyclable collection bin has been available at the company headquarters since 2005. During business hours of between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., anyone can drop recyclables at no charge. The drop-off bin is 5 feet wide by 22 feet long and can carry 30 cubic yards of materials, Ewing said. When the bin is full of commingled recyclables, it is hauled and sold to Mid Oregon Recycling in Bend, which is located at Bend

Garbage, at 20835 N.E. Montana Way in Bend. The cost of curbside recycling will probably be higher in La Pine than it is in Bend, Schimke says. The last time recycling costs were surveyed in Bend was in 1983, he said, and at the time the cost was $3 per month per household. “They have the same trucks and fuel costs we do in Bend, but the houses are further apart in La Pine, the drivers take longer to fill a truck, and they have to drive further to get a load,” Schimke said.

Fuel costs add up Deschutes County operates a transfer station one mile north of La Pine Recreation Road on U.S. Highway 97, Schimke said, where recyclables can be dropped off. The county hauls materials from the station to Mid Oregon Recycling, and it costs $14 per ton to move the materials. The company pays the going rate for recyclables, which varies with a fluctuating market. “Cardboard and newspapers may make money,” Schimke said. “But tin cans don’t, and the plastics vary in value. The price of recyclables varies just like the stock market.” But the big recycling expense in La Pine is diesel fuel, said

Martinez, and the cost of sending a truck and driver on the 60-mile round-trip from La Pine to Mid Oregon Recycling. Each load carries 30 cubic yards of materials, and hauling it costs the company about $165 per trip. “Sometimes, we burn up more fossil fuel hauling the recyclables than we save by recycling,” Martinez said. La Pine mayor Ken Mulenex says La Pine residents’ attitude toward recycling has been positive. “Everybody I have talked to about it, between 25 and 30 people, over the past year has been in favor of recycling,” Mulenex said. “I haven’t heard what people would be willing to pay for it, though.” The start-up costs of the curbside recycling program would be high, Ewing said. An additional 500 roll carts would have to be purchased at a cost of about $65 each. To cover the city’s recycling needs adequately, the company currently has enough personnel and trucks. At some point, said Ewing, additional workers and trucks would probably have to be added. “It will be years before we get the money back on the roll carts,” Ewing said. “At first, the recycling project will just be money out of our pockets. If enough people want a recycling option,

In 1993, gunfight erupts between ATF agents and Branch Davidians The Associated Press Today is Monday, Feb. 28, the 59th day of 2011. There are 306 days left in the year. TODAY’S HIGHLIGHT IN HISTORY On Feb. 28, 1911, President William Howard Taft nominated William H. Lewis to be the first black Assistant Attorney General of the United States. (Lewis took office in March 1911 and served until April 1913.) ON THIS DATE In 1844, a 12-inch gun aboard the USS Princeton exploded as the ship was sailing on the Potomac River, killing Secretary of State Abel P. Upshur, Navy Secretary Thomas W. Gilmer and several others. In 1849, the California gold rush began in earnest as regular steamship service started bringing gold-seekers to San Francisco. In 1861, the Territory of Colorado was organized. In 1951, the Senate committee headed by Estes Kefauver, DTenn., issued an interim report saying at least two major crime syndicates were operating in the U.S. In 1953, scientists James D. Watson and Francis H.C. Crick announced they had discovered the double-helix structure of DNA, the molecule that contains the human genes. In 1960, a day after defeating the Soviets at the Winter Games in Squaw Valley, Calif., the United States won its first Olympic hockey gold medal by defeating Czechoslovakia’s team, 9-4. In 1972, President Richard M. Nixon and Chinese Premier Zhou Enlai issued the Shanghai Communique at the conclusion of Nixon’s historic visit to China.

T O D AY IN HISTORY In 1975, more than 40 people were killed in London’s Underground when a subway train smashed into the end of a tunnel. In 1986, Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme was shot to death in central Stockholm. (The killing remains unsolved.) In 1993, a gun battle erupted at a compound near Waco, Texas, when Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms agents tried to serve warrants on the Branch Davidians; four agents and six Davidians were killed as a 51day standoff began.

‘Larger picture’ While the cost versus benefit may not seem to add up right now, Schimke says he can “advocate for the larger picture.” “If I restrict my view to the immediate budget, it may not make sense to go to all this effort and money to recycle,” he said. “But if recycling gives the landfill another two to three years of life, that cost can be measured.” For Martinez, recycling is part of being a good corporate neighbor. “This company has always been community-oriented, and you can see how we’re impacting the environment,” he said. “We all have to live here. The kids want us to start a recycling program, and I think people will want to recycle.

SEATTLE — A railroad spokesman said Sunday it might take three weeks to remove all debris from the site where a freight train derailed and sideswiped another on the banks of Puget Sound, spilling a small amount of a hazardous chemical. Four of the 14 cars that derailed late Saturday were tankers that each contained 15,000 gallons of lye, a chemical used as a drain cleaner and for other purposes. About 50 gallons leaked, with some of it seeping into the sand and some being bagged in plastic by response teams, said BSNF Railway

spokesman Gus Melonas. None of the lye spilled directly into the water, but the derailment prompted a quick response from Coast Guard, as well as the state Ecology Department, because of concerns the chemical could harm aquatic species. Twelve cars from a train heading from Portland to Vancouver, British Columbia, derailed and struck rail cars from a train hauling garbage in the other direction.

O Rep. Wu links his erratic behavior to reaction to mental health drug

COTTAGE GROVE

By Jonathan J. Cooper The Associated Press

Thomas Boyd / The Oregonian

One of the attendees of the Stove Camp uses a clean cookstove Jan. 25 in Cottage Grove. Distinguished visitors from Switzerland, Italy, Darfur, Sri Lanka and elsewhere came to study and debate ways to alleviate some of the globe’s most crushing health and environmental problems.

Changing the world — 1 stove at a time Nonprofit hopes cleaner cooking will solve global health issues By Katy Muldoon The Oregonian

COTTAGE GROVE — The Row River and the Willamette’s coast fork converge at this mossy town nestled between the Coast Range and the Cascades. Oregon’s old-time timber culture and its storied counterculture do, too. It’s a town where, not far from the natural-foods store sits a meat-cutting school, and taking cover across Main Street from the Victorian antiques shop is a purveyor of fine machine guns. So another unlikely convergence shouldn’t surprise. Here, at a funky little farm populated by an amiable black Labrador and a bossy flock of free-range chickens, a band of Oregon engineers and dreamers last week welcomed representatives of the World Food Programme and the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. The distinguished visitors from Switzerland, Italy, Darfur, Sri Lanka and elsewhere came to study and debate ways to alleviate some of the globe’s most crushing health and environmental problems with one seemingly simple solution. To reduce lung-choking indoor air pollution and to stem deforestation and climate change, they want to equip nearly half the world with clean-burning, fuel-efficient, affordable cookstoves. An estimated 3 billion people don’t have that luxury. So, naturally, the delegation came to Cottage Grove, hotbed of cookstove innovation and technology, home of Aprovecho Research Center. The name may not ring a bell outside humanitarian circles or the Willamette Valley. But those behind the nonprofit — in Spanish, Aprovecho means “to make best use of” — have invented, developed, tested and tinkered with basic cookstoves for 35 years. Now, their cause is attracting global recognition and the sort of serious dollars that might help Aprovecho grow and make a sizeable dent in improving the health of the impoverished, and of the planet.

Big money Last August, the nonprofit X Prize Foundation, India’s government and the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi announced a global competition, with big prize money at stake, to develop and deploy clean, efficient stoves. In September, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced the United States would provide about $50 million to the Global Alliance for Clean Cookstoves; other governments, organizations and corporations promised to contribute another $10 million. The goal: 100 million cleanburning stoves for villagers in Africa, Asia and South America by 2020.

The U.S. Department of Energy plans to grant $12 million to develop stoves that use 90 percent less fuel than traditional cookstoves, emit 50 percent less pollution, and are within reach of people who live on a scant $1 a day. The World Bank intends to address alternatives to traditional biomass cookstoves in its 2011 energy strategy. And the World Food Programme, which feeds 18 million people daily, has made stoves a priority, prompting last week’s visit to Aprovecho’s Stove Camp. Fires burned in stoves as big as oil drums and as small as flowerpots. They crackled inside the hodgepodge of buildings and sizzled outside under an openair shed. Caldrons of water equipped with thermometers stood atop the stoves, and nearby, Stove Campers bearing clipboards, carbon-monoxide detectors and stopwatches noted the number of sticks required to fuel the flames, the emissions the fires gave off and the time it took water to boil. “I have the most boring job on Earth,” said Dean Still, 58, who may have used the line a time or 10 before. “I watch water boil.” Aprovecho’s jovial executive director chuckled at his own joke. Still holds court over Stove Camp, which typically attracts researchers, engineers, aid workers, students and those drawn to sustainable living.

Science of stoves For five days or more, they listen to lectures on combustion science and heat transfer. They discuss firewood, charcoal and burnable dung. They talk fuel metering, gas mixing and why hotter fires burn cleaner than cooler ones. “We figure out,” Still said, “how fire can serve humanity.” Fire, of course, has done that for hundreds of thousands of years — warming us, keeping predators at bay, clearing land for farming and making it possible to enjoy a nice pot of soup. But for much of the world, dinner involves far more than switching on a burner. Research shows that women, who do most of the world’s cooking and fire tending, and their children, who spend hours each day near the hearth, suffer fire’s woes inordinately. Indoor pollution from solid-fuel use causes pneumonia, chronic respiratory disease and lung cancer, killing 1.6 million annually. In some regions, gathering wood or other materials to burn is a dangerous requirement of daily life. Landmines threaten women and children searching for fuel in northern Sri Lanka. From Sudan to Kenya, women collect firewood in groups, hoping to avoid rape or other vio-

lence. In Uganda, according to the World Food Programme, attacks on women are part of a strategy to humiliate opposing tribes, so those searching for fuel avoid returning to the same places to lessen chances they’ll be victimized. Efficient stoves require less fuel, reducing the burdens and dangers, while clean-burning stoves cut health risks. Aprovecho workers have begun building 200 Institutional Stoves paid for by the World Food Programme and bound for Darfur. The barrel-sized stoves will be used in schools, hospitals and other settings where large numbers of people need feeding. Wednesday, Aprovecho landed a $7,500 contract to develop a fuelefficient injera stove for Ethiopia; injera, pancake-like bread, is an Ethiopian diet staple.

Training missions Last year, the center’s staff embarked on 10 training missions with governments and other agencies. They consulted with a German aid agency to establish stove factories in South America, helped the humanitarian organization CARE improve its Rwandan cookstove factory, and trained Ugandan engineering students and university faculty to use an Aprovecho-designed portable emissions-measuring system. This year, they expect to help improve stove factories in Laos and Bangladesh. And Aprovecho will nurture the center’s new forprofit arm, StoveTec, which manufactures clean burning stoves in China and aims to sell them around the world; with a factory cranking out thousands of quality stoves, Still and others have expanded their thinking on how far Aprovecho can reach. All of it adds up to a homegrown nonprofit packing an increasingly powerful humanitarian punch. In 2009, Still changed from his usual sooty jeans and grungy sneakers into a smart suit and tie for one auspicious event: Britain’s Prince Charles awarded him and China’s Shengzhou Stoves, StoveTec’s manufacturer, the International Energy Champion Ashden Award for stemming pollution and benefiting communities around the globe. Governments, aid groups, missionaries and others have long distributed stoves in the developing world. Some work well and endure. Others are so inappropriate for local cooks’ needs and traditions, or so incompatible with regional fuel sources that they end up being used as planters or displayed as art. Sometimes, when villagers modify stoves, efficiency drops or emissions increase. Often, education about the health consequences of smoke exposure is scarce.

PORTLAND — An Oregon congressman whose erratic behavior has recently prompted calls for his resignation said Sunday that some of his actions could be attributed to a reaction to a mental health drug. U.S. Rep. David Wu told The Associated Press, however, that it does not explain the behavior documented in reports over the past month, which included sending his staff photos of himself wearing a tiger costume. Wu said he was hospitalized after his 2008 campaign for symptoms that were later diagnosed as a reaction to a common mental health drug. He said he felt dizzy and confused on Election Day that year, when his staff and family reportedly were unable to locate him. “It came up that afternoon, and it knocked me off my can,” Wu said, referring to the symptoms. The AP interview in his Portland office was the most detailed public account yet of Wu’s psychiatric treatment since reports first surfaced last month. Six staff members quit after his 2010 re-election campaign during which the congressman gave angry speeches and talked his way inside the secure portion of Portland International Airport. The congressman said last year’s episodes were the culmination of a period of mental health challenges that began in 2008 as marital issues led toward his separation from his wife. He declined to detail the problems in his marriage but said they had nothing to

do with his health. In 2008, Wu was treated with a prescription mental health drug that he deU.S. Rep. clined to name David Wu but described as “very common.” Wu said he reacted to an enzyme in the drug, and that after the election he was hospitalized for two days. He said he continued to feel unwell until summer 2009, when doctors linked his

symptoms to his medication. The drug component he reacted to is common in many medications, he said. Still, despite his allergy, Wu acknowledged taking two tablets of an unknown painkiller from a campaign donor in 2010. “That is what a combination of pain and bad judgment will do, and I shouldn’t have done it,” Wu said. Wu said he would not step down, despite calls for his resignation from Republicans and from some Oregon newspapers. “I can do this job, and I can do this job well,” he said.

Money managers need scrutiny

hen Ted Wheeler was appointed state treasurer in 2010, he was greeted with an investigation by The Oregonian that was not at all flattering for his

department.

State money managers were getting expenses paid for first class travel, expensive meals and golf rounds by the very investment companies angling for the $170 billion Oregon invests. Some managers were even routinely claiming they were owed the state’s meal reimbursement when they were getting meals for free. Business as usual at treasury was some bad business. Wheeler brought in auditors. He said there would be no more expenses except as they specifically relate to duties. Money managers would not be flying first class. Voters made Wheeler’s appointment permanent. We supported his election. But now in office, Wheeler and the Legislature are trying to draw up specific boundaries for the money managers. Senate bills 510 and 269 would require state investment officers and assistant investment officers to file statements of economic interest. Many other state officials are required to do so. The forms basically require disclosure of business ties and investments, sources of income, debts, honoraria and expenses provided in the course of state duties. Wheeler wants some changes. He doesn’t want his employees to be required to make the disclosures, The Oregonian reports, if those expenses are required to be paid as part of the contract with the investment firms. Many details of the contracts between the state and investment com-

panies are now confidential. That’s the way, the argument goes, that business is done in the investment world. But if employees were already acting with cartoonish disregard for concern about conflict of interest, Oregon’s money managers need more than an admonishment. They need to change the way they interact with firms wooing the state’s money. Another change Wheeler has asked for is to grant employees safe harbor from ethics investigations as long as they followed the state’s rules. The agency has had to pay $100,000 in legal fees to defend three employees against ethics violations. Wheeler’s amendment, though, goes too far. State agencies can already get such protection for their employees, if the ethics commission has approved the policies in question in advance. Wheeler wants the protection as long as the policies were clearly spelled out — without any review or approval by the ethics commission. The state’s money managers have proven they are entitled to one thing: more scrutiny, not special exemptions.

Education proposal changes very little W

e’re all for expecting more of Oregon’s high school students, so the news that the Oregon University System will guarantee college admission to kids who meet certain standards is good. Still, the standards being set hardly will ensure that state schools get the cream of the high school crop. Currently the state’s largest schools require a 3.0 grade point average on a 4.0 scale; that will rise to 3.4 on the same scale for guaranteed admission. And some students will continue to be admitted with GPAs lower than 3.4. Students also will have to prove proficiency in reading, writing, math and speaking. The first three can be accomplished by earning a 550 in each area on the SAT exams and equivalent score on similar tests. State universities now require the same exams, but they do not require a minimum score on them. Knowing that, you could argue than setting any minimum score on tests like the SAT is an improvement

from the current requirement. Still, Oregon students do relatively well on the exams already. Last year Oregon teens averaged 521 on the SAT reading exam, 523 on math and 496 on writing. Those are average scores, remember, meaning top students no doubt already are doing better. Admission aside, the new state guarantee offers little inducement for the best and brightest of Oregon’s kids. The guarantee comes with no money, for one thing, to attend school at home. Meanwhile, the state Board of Higher Education assures us the guaranteed admission standard will do nothing to lessen the chances that a student with a slightly less stellar record will also be admitted. “This new admissions process will not shut out any students,” said Joe Holliday, assistant vice chancellor for student success initiatives. If Holliday is right, we’re not sure why anyone should get very excited about the change. It sounds good, but, it’s likely to be business as usual.

Bogus research

Bad bill for south county

A Night of Hope benefiting the St. Charles Cancer Center was cancelled due to lack of sponsorship and financial support. Ninety days ago, this decision may have caught my passing interest; recognizing the financial pressure on all non-profits, I would have thought that understandable. However, that perspective changed when my wife recently became a member of a club no one wants to join: the cancer survivors club. We have since learned that cancer is epidemic and there is a good chance it will touch all of us in some way. We have also learned if you have this ugly disease, Bend is a great place to live. We are blessed with a cancer care community that rivals any in the United States. It starts first with highly skilled physicians, backed up by a compassionate nursing corps that is second to none. Supporting these medical experts is a cancer care support system that is extraordinary. For those who are impacted by cancer, this support system offers education, support and hope. A Night of Hope and similar fundraisers finance these programs, staffed by committed volunteers who are cancer survivors. Although it is disappointing that A Night of Hope was canceled, it would do us all well to support future fundraisers for the cancer care and support programs of St. Charles. We know personally that all of us may eventually rely on these extraordinary programs that offer hope and a chance to overcome cancer. Rick & Gayle Jacobson Bend

I was distressed by the article about the so-called “research” being done with Rhesus monkeys, supposedly to help humanity with its problems with obesity and diabetes. The article states that some of the monkeys (150 or so in one facility) are kept isolated in cages with nothing to stimulate their minds other than food. Because they have nothing better to do, they eat whatever comes their way, with the more than obvious result that they gain weight, especially since they are given no means to exercise it off. This treatment is both horrific and inhumane and can only produce bogus results. It’s a well-known fact that stress causes all sorts of physical aberrations in both humans and the rest of the animal kingdom. Keeping a communal animal such as a monkey in total isolation with no means of mental stimulation is abnormal and stressful and can only lead to suspect results. And at this point, with all the saturation the public is subjected to through the media, does anyone really think that no one is aware that a healthy diet and exercise are key to keeping the weight off and the blood-sugar levels normal? Not only is this kind of “research” cruel and unjust, but worthless as well, unless guaranteeing a job for the researchers — at taxpayers’ expense — is a priority. I feel my money would be better spent in researching the horrors the researchers, themselves, were exposed to in their formative years that would turn them into such inhumane and self-centered individuals.

I have just read the “emergency” House Bill 3347. I suggest everyone ask Representatives Whisnant, Conger, Huffman, McLane or Senator Atkinson where their brains were temporarily located when they sponsored this bill. If you have not read the summary and the bill, I suggest you do so. What is the emergency? This bill specifically begins relating to negating deed restrictions in order to build 925 units on forested lands directly adjacent to Caldera Springs south to Vandevert Road. The present housing economy is depressed, and the future may make it hard to sell 925 units. I’m sure everyone in Caldera Springs, and Crosswater, have noted their property values have plummeted, and it may be years before they see an increase in value to the level where they purchased their lots/homes. Section 4 of this bill is the most outrageous “emergency.” It outlines that within 180 days after finalization of the bill a “South County Sanitary Authority” will be created, which “will not allow a vote of the electors.” I understand at least one representative has now changed his mind about presenting this bill, but has included a possible future South County Sanitary Authority in his version. Section 5 claims this act is necessary for the immediate preservation of the public peace, health and safety, and an emergency is declared to exist. The act would take effect on passage. Please, representatives, listen to more of your constituents. Karen Newcomb Sunriver

Bend council made the right choice on surface water By Casey Roats Bulletin guest columnist

he Bend City Council made the correct decision to reinvest in the city’s surface water system. My thinking on the issue was much the same as the council’s, initially reluctant but confident in the final decision to move ahead. The depiction of this issue being a “Cadillac vs. Chevy” decision is not a valid example of one. A cash strapped water utility investing in an electronic, remotely read meter system rather than just reading the meters it has by hand would be one of those. The decision to continue to utilize the gravity fed surface water system while keeping the highly coveted and sought after second source of water (by other water purveyors) isn’t a Chevy vs. Cadillac decision, it’s the prudent long term water resource strategy for a growing community. The advantages of a gravity supplied water system are too numerous to list. Anyone who would seek to minimize

that fact hasn’t had to pay $100,000 to fix a line shaft turbine well because a $50 part failed. The rest of us water purveyors in the basin are all ground water systems because it’s our only option. I would much prefer to never drill another well again. They are expensive to develop, equip, maintain, operate and rehabilitate. Aside from cost and maintenance, our well fields are scattered all over our water systems. If, for some reason, a harmful substance were ever to be found in the basin’s water supply that required treatment, the costs of treating water at every entry point in the greater water system would be tremendous. At least the city of Bend would have half of their water coming from one point where the treatment will already be taking place. HDR Engineering has been wrongly criticized while using a 50-year basis for its cost analysis. HDR did this to be “fair” to the all ground water alternative. This was done to not over exaggerate the spread in costs between pump-

IN MY VIEW ing water and letting it run downhill. In private sector decision making, fairness is a distant second to objectivity in the analysis of data. Even if HDR’s power costs assumptions are off by a factor of 100 percent, cut them in half and extend the study to 150 years which is a realistic time frame for the proposed investment to be in service. Additionally, transferring those surface water rights to ground water rights require legislative action in Salem to amend the existing cap of 200 cubic feet per second in groundwater withdrawals in our basin. Relying on a political body disconnected from the reality of our basin is a risky water resource strategy. Beyond that, the very senior water right priority dates of 1909 and 1912 would be replaced by present day rights. If anytime in the future, the ground water table was to drop enough, the state would force those new wells to be shut off first.

Half of the City of Bend’s present day water supply would be useless. The solutions to addressing flow in the Deschutes River are larger than this project. The city could only contribute a very small percentage of water compared to the other options that are available. The major irrigation diversions divert hundreds of cubic feet per second in comparison to the City’s diversion. A full 50 percent of the irrigation water is lost to leaky canals and evaporation. If the community were to focus its river restoration efforts, it would come in the form of more efficient irrigation delivery. Why should users that divert only a small portion of the water while putting 100 percent of it to beneficial use shoulder the long term costs of repairing the Middle Deschutes, when piping the canals could completely fix the flows in the river and have no negative impact on deliveries or requirements of additional energy? Moving to ground water is hardly a greener option than continuing to use

a gravity fed major water source. Picture in your mind 10 very large diameter wells with large above ground 300 horsepower electric motors pumping water into the river forever. As laudable as finding ways to keep water in the river is, that is exactly what the ratepayers of Bend would be subsidizing in perpetuity. The surface water project also has the option of at some point in the future adding a hydropower plant that would generate revenue for the city and produce real “green” power. Fifty-eight million dollars is a large sum of money, but this is the first time in the city’s 100-year history that the ratepayers have been asked to include in their rate structure any meaningful reinvestments to its water system. The bill has come due on aging infrastructure. I commend the council for taking the long term view and selecting the most responsible water resource strategy of the two options.

O Andy Jurinko, artist who memorialized ballparks By Dennis Hevesi New York Times News Service

There is the panoramic view toward the Green Monster, the towering left-field wall at Fenway Park, on June 8, 1950, as the Boston Red Sox are crushing the St. Louis Browns, 24-9. There is the Brooklyn Dodgers’ Duke Snider at bat in Ebbets Field in July 1955, with the Schaefer Beer sign — “A real hit! A real beer! — above the scoreboard and the Abe Stark clothing store sign below. There is Willie Mays making his incredible over-the-head catch in deep center at the Polo Grounds in Game 1 of the 1954 World Series between the Giants and the Cleveland Indians. Those are among the hundreds of vividly realistic oil paintings — in reds, blues, yellows and, of course, infield and outfield greens — that made Andy Jurinko one of the nation’s foremost baseball artists, known particularly for reprising the days when fans in fedoras and straw hats filled the stands. Jurinko, a Phillies fan, died of pancreatic cancer on Feb. 14 at his loft in Lower Manhattan, his wife, Pat Moore, said. He was 71. Citing what he called Jurinko’s “impeccably drawn” works, Ray Robinson, the author of 35 baseball books, said: “He was a nut on stats — the exact number of feet to right field, center field, left field; the exact color of those advertising signs. He was the top of the craftsmen who did this kind of stuff.” But Jurinko did far more than record vistas of ballparks, he also painted more than 400 portraits of star players and more than 150 action pieces.

Eagles Continued from B1 In between training his binoculars on the sky, Larry shows off the pictures he and his wife took of eagles they had spotted in the past. The one that elicits the most praise from other onlookers is one his wife took of a pair of bald eagles perched next to each other in a tree. “They’re just magnificent birds, and they’re majestic,” Larry Pearcy said. “I grew up here and remember years ago you never saw them. The other day we came through the John Day valley and we saw eight. It’s just real neat.” There are 10 pairs of bald eagles and 10 pairs of golden eagles that nest at Lake Billy Chinook year round. Between January and March dozens — and sometimes hundreds — more bald eagles come to the area, migrating from summer homes that can be as far away as Alaska. Eagle Watch showcases the birds, allowing anyone who is willing to make the drive a free opportunity to watch the raptors soar through the wild skies. The

Consent Continued from B1 “For over an hour, Bob Camreta kept asking me the same questions, just in different ways, trying to get me to change my answers,” the statement reads. “Finally, I just started saying ‘yes’ to whatever he said. And then, after a while, he said I could go.” Camreta and the girl dispute the length of the interview, with Camreta claiming it lasted about an hour, and the girl claiming two hours. The girl’s mother, contending her daughters were not abused, sued Camreta; the deputy, James Alford; and a Bend-La Pine Schools counselor, Terry Friesen. The suits claimed the interview was an illegal seizure because investigators did not have the mother’s permission, a warrant or evidence the girl was in danger. In 2006, a U.S. District Court judge ruled that officials had the

Duke Snider, baseball Hall of Famer By Ben Walker

Los Angeles Dodgers Hall of Fame outfielder Duke Snider, seen here in 1962, died early Sunday at age 84 in Escondido, Calif. Snider helped lead the Brooklyn Dodgers to its only World Series championship in 1955.

To his mother, he was Ed. To everyone else, he was “The Duke of Flatbush” — revered by a borough of baseball fans and forever remembered in a song that romanticized a most golden era. Duke Snider, the Hall of Fame center fielder for the charmed “Boys of Summer” who helped the Dodgers bring their elusive and only World Series crown to Brooklyn, died Sunday. He was 84. Snider died at the Valle Vista Convalescent Hospital in Escondido, Calif., according to the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, which announced the death on behalf of the family. Snider had been ill for months. His family said he died of natural causes. Snider hit .295 with 407 career home runs, played in the World Series six times and won two titles. But the eighttime All-Star was defined by much more than his stats — he was, after all, part of the love affair between Brooklyn and “Dem Bums” who lived in the local neighborhoods. Ebbets Field was filled with stars such as Pee Wee Reese, Roy Campanella and Gil Hodges during that 1955 championship season. Yet it is Snider’s name that refrains in “Talkin’ Baseball.” “Willie, Mickey, and the Duke,” goes the popular ballpark song, which marks its 30th anniversary this year. Snider wore No. 4 in Dodger blue and was often regarded as the third-best center fielder in New York — behind Willie Mays of the Giants and Mickey Mantle of the Yankees. “Duke was a fine man, a terrific hitter and a great friend, even though he was a Dodger,” Mays said in a statement. “It was great playing

Inside • What made Snider special, Page D1 centerfield in New York in the 1950s, along with Mickey and Duke.” To Snider it was a made up rivalry. “The newspapers compared Willie, Mickey and I, and that was their thing,” Snider said several years ago. “As a team, we competed with the Giants, and we faced the Yankees in the World Series. So we had a rivalry as a team, that was it. It was an honor to be compared to them, they were both great players.” Mantle died in 1995 at age 63. Mays, now 79, threw out a ceremonial ball last fall before a playoff game in San Francisco.

“You can go to a zoo to see them, just like you can go to a zoo to see bison, but it’s just not the same thing as seeing them in the wild … It’s quite amazing.” — Bill Ennis, Eagle Watch participant event, in its sixteenth year, includes presentations by experts. Last weekend provided an upclose look at a captive golden eagle, named Aquila, that was blinded after being struck by a car. “It’s got a good following,” Oregon State Parks Interpretation Coordinator Paul Patton said of Eagle Watch. “We do it so we can help develop awareness and appreciation for the eagles of Central Oregon.” The area around Lake Billy Chinook has a lot of eagle activity, both bald and golden. The reason for this, according to eagle expert Frank Isaacs, is because it has environments that are desirable for both species. Generally, he said, bald eagles are attracted to large bodies of water where they can fish. The birds are also more prone to perching in trees. As for golden eagles, Isaacs said the birds

typically like to perch in cliffs and hunt in the desert where small mammals like jack rabbits live. “Lake Billy Chinook is pretty unique, being a huge lake in the high desert,” Isaacs said. “Eagles are a big part of the landscape in Oregon.” Bill Ennis, 69, said he hopes the eagles continue to remain part of the landscape. He and his wife, Debbie, 59, were attending the Eagle Watch event for the second time. “We appreciate nature a lot,” Ennis said as he looked out over Lake Billy Chinook in his search for eagles. “You can go to a zoo to see them, just like you can go to a zoo to see bison, but it’s just not the same thing as seeing them in the wild … It’s quite amazing.”

right to conduct the interview. Three years later, the U.S. 9th Circuit Court of Appeals overturned the ruling. The girl’s father stood trial on charges of sexually abusing his daughter, but charges were ultimately dismissed. Deschutes County legal counsel Steve Griffin said Oregon Attorney General John Kroger will be arguing the case on behalf of both the county and the Oregon Department of Human Services. “The county believes that protecting children who may have been abused or neglected is something that everyone — parents, children, the public — has a strong interest in,” said Griffin. “The Fourth Amendment says that searches and seizures have to be reasonable, and going to a child’s school or someplace in public and briefly talking to her to see if reasonable suspicions of abuse are founded is something that we all should want the police to be able to do, And the Consti-

tution doesn’t prohibit that.” Mikel Miller, a Bend attorney who filed the suits on behalf of the girl’s mother, said investigators could have easily gotten around the issue of parental consent by asking a judge to sign a warrant authorizing the interview. “The Bill of Rights was designed to protect citizens from the government, and if the government can overcome the Bill of Rights by claiming it’s really inconvenient, then there are no civil rights,” Miller said. New York attorney Carolyn Kubitschek will be arguing the case on behalf of the family, Miller said. She said the family that brought the case is still together and is working to recover from the financial burden incurred by their legal fight. Arguments in the case are scheduled to begin Tuesday.

“Willie, Duke and Mickey. They were great players in one city, one town. Duke never got the credit of being the outfielder that Mays and Mantle were,” former teammate Don Zimmer said Sunday. “But Duke was a great outfielder. He was a great player.” Commissioner Bud Selig called Snider an “integral part of Dodger history” and part of an “unparalleled triumvirate of center fielders” in New York. “Then the Los Angeles native went home and helped usher in a new part of baseball history with great class,” Selig said in a statement. Said Giants manager Bruce Bochy: “There was even a song with Duke in it.” “I remember the first time I met him. It’s almost like you’re meeting a god, a baseball hero for all of us,” he said.

Snider hit at least 40 homers in five straight seasons and led the NL in total bases three times. He never won an MVP award, although a voting error may have cost him the prize in 1955. He lost to Campanella by a very narrow margin — it later turned out an ill voter left Snider off the ballot, supposedly by mistake. Snider is the Dodgers’ franchise leader in home runs (389) and RBIs (1,271). He led all major leaguers in the 1950s with 326 homers and 1,031 RBIs. Carl Erskine was Snider’s roommate for 10 years and the two shared a house at spring training in Vero Beach, Fla., with their families. “Duke played so great when I pitched,” he recalled. “He just made so many plays in the World Series for me, and he seemed to play his best when I pitched.” Snider hit .309 with 42 hom-

Continued from B1 Daytime temperatures are forecast to hover around that 45 degree realm throughout much of the rest of the week, rising slightly higher starting Saturday. Evening temperatures, meanwhile, are expected to be in the mid 20s until Friday and low 30s by the weekend. Starting Wednesday night, and every day until Sunday, it’s expected to be mostly cloudy with a 20 to 30 percent chance of rain and snow. “Even though you have that chance of snow, those are all before-sun events,” Brooks said. “With it being mostly cloudy … you’ll still get some sunshine and general warming.”

Authorities are asking that anyone who has had similar contact or suspicious encounters with Bray to report them by calling Bend Police at 541322-2960 or the Deschutes County 911 nonemergency line at 541-693-6911. According to the Oregon Judicial Information Network, Bray lived in Portland as recently as January when he was cited for speeding. An arraignment in that matter is scheduled for March 9.

ers and a career-high 136 RBIs in 1955. That October, he hit four homers, drove in seven runs and hit .320 as the Dodgers beat the Yankees in a sevengame Series. For a team that kept preaching “Wait till next year” after World Series losses to the Yankees in 1953, ’52, ’49, ’47 and ’41, it was indeed next year. A generation later, long after they’d all grown old, those Dodgers were lauded as the “Boys of Summer” in Roger Kahn’s book. “He was the true Dodger and represented the Dodgers to the highest degree of class, dignity and character,” Hall of Fame Dodgers manager Tommy Lasorda said. Orlando Cepeda, a Hall of Famer with the Giants, said Snider provided one of his biggest thrills when he broke into the majors in 1958. “When I came to first base, the opening game, he said to me, ‘Orlando, good luck, good luck,’” Cepeda said. “He was one of my idols. I almost fainted.” Born Edwin Donald Snider, he got his nickname at an early age. Noticing his son return home from a game with somewhat of a strut, Snider’s dad said, “Here comes the Duke.” Even though his mom preferred Ed, the name stuck. So did Snider, once he played his first game in the majors in 1947, two days after Jackie Robinson’s historic debut. A durable slugger with a strong arm, good instincts on the bases and a regal style, Snider hit the last home run at Ebbets Field in 1957.

GLASS BUTTES

Area east of Bend may hold geothermal energy potential

Central Oregon’s newest ‘friend’

By Tim Doran The Bulletin

About 80 miles east of Bend, researchers hope to combine high-tech imaging and scientific survey techniques in an innovative way to help identify new sources of geothermal energy. And if all goes well, they might even find enough geothermal energy to power homes and business. The work began at Glass Buttes, located west of the U.S. Highway 20-U.S. Highway 395 junction, last year, according to project summaries. It involves a professor from Oregon State University, the chief scientist at the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries and a staff geologist from Nevada-based Ormat Technologies, the geothermal power plant company paying about half the $8.5 million project costs. A grant from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act pays the rest. Ormat has leased the geothermal rights at Glass Buttes, but it’s not the first to explore the area. In the late 1970s, Phillips Petroleum conducted large-scale drilling that today would be too expensive, even if a company could get permits, according to a fourth-quarter 2010 project summary on the Recovery Act website. While the company did not find flowing water, its tests showed areas that deserved further testing. Since then, the technology for generating electricity from geothermal sources has improved, and Ormat, which has been in the industry since 1965, hopes the research will generate enough geothermal energy to sell to a utility.

Geothermal exploration Experts from Oregon and Nevada are testing new techniques to assess geothermal energy potential near Glass Buttes, east of Bend.

By Jordan Novet • The Bulletin PRINEVILLE —

Bend

rom the outside, surrounded as it is by concrete slabs, steel beams, tractors, cherry pickers, trailers and trucks, it looks like just another big commercial building. In a sense, it is. In a sense, it’s not. Inside, there are security guards and waffle makers, construction workers and video games, technicians and

servers, innumerable servers, slim and uniform, lined up in rows and columns, aisle upon aisle upon aisle of them, staying cool, humming, lighting up. All of it is there for a sole purpose: improving the experience of the online, multinational social network Facebook.

And there’s plenty more work to be done before the building is complete. The Prineville Data Center, Facebook’s first wholly owned property, has been under construction for about a year now. The first quarter of the center is completed and servers are being tested, and the rest of the building is coming “We’re now along to varying a piece of degrees. Prineville The data history,” says center’s manFacebook ager, Ken Patchdata center ett, said testmanager Ken ing should end Patchett. and user data should be flowing through the many servers by early spring. For now, though, the place is a small city, busy with activity all around, and Patchett, who considers himself its mayor, somehow makes sure everything goes as it should. Including security and facilitymanagement personnel, the tally of workers at the building who will stay on after construction ends stands at about 42, Patchett said, counting himself. Patchett would not reveal how much has already been spent on the facility, which has received attention from national media and trade publications for months. And numbers about the economic impact of the construction project are not yet available, said

Jason Carr, manager of the Prineville and Crook County economic development program for Economic Development for Central Oregon. But Carr has been made aware of several small-scale economic improvements in the area. One hotel in Prineville, for example, saw its best January in almost 20 years because of the Facebook project, Carr was told. As for Patchett, he has made himself comfortable in Prineville, having found a house for himself

and his family to rent. Historical photographs of Prineville decorate walls in the waiting area and in other halls. “We’re now a piece of Prineville history as well,” Patchett said. “And we like that.” Depictions of communications technology through the centuries — cave etchings, a printing press, a typewriter, a television — adorn one wall near a server room, and altogether suggest Facebook has had a part in the evolution. With Facebook, Patchett said as he

walked backward down the hall, “You feel more complete. You feel more connected.” The building now spans 306,000 square feet, Patchett said. Walking around it can feel like exploring a maze. Even conceiving of its size can be overwhelming — setting it on one end could make it a Central Oregon skyscraper. Yet its purpose is singular, and it all comes across as integral and united with everything else. See Facebook / C6

Swarms of wasps – if not investors By Amy Wallace New York Times News Service

The white paper by the Georgia scientists Glen C. Rains and W. Joe Lewis has a technical-sounding title that masks the exciting news within. “A Project to Bring Innovative New Technology Into the Market Place for Detecting Agents of Harm in Agriculture, Security, and Human Health/Safety Arenas,” it says blandly. Luckily, Prototype is here to translate: Move over, bloodhounds, there’s a new odor detector in town. The Wasp Hound, designed by the two scientists, is a hand-held device containing five parasitic wasps. These flying, stinger-less insects have outperformed dogs in tests that measure scent detection of cadavers, but research shows that they can be taught to sniff out any thing: explosives, drugs and even that Ezra Millstein / New York Times News Service newly resurThese wasps can be taught to gent scourge: sniff out most anything, includbedbugs. ing bedbugs.

Woman won’t give approval Judge: Seinfeld can mock to friend’s destructive affairs cookbook author on TV Dear Abby: My best friend “Diane” and I have known each other since we were children. She has always had difficulty in her relationships with men. In the last three years, she has begun dating married men. She was sure the latest one was the man of her dreams, but it was short-lived and destroyed his marriage. Diane rationalizes what she’s doing by saying the men will cheat anyway, so why not with her? Diane is now in love with someone new. If he leaves his wife and children for her, this will be another home Diane has helped break up. She wants my blessings and for me to get along with her boyfriend. Being a married woman and a mother, I sympathize with the wives of these men. Why has my best friend become a home wrecker? What can I do to avoid being pulled into this affair without losing her friendship? — Morally Compromised in Michigan Dear Morally Compromised: There is no one-size-fits-all answer about why a woman dates married men. Some women do it because they fall in love; others because they don’t care whom they hurt to get what they want; while still others see it as a competition they “have” to win — again and again. You do not have to allow yourself to be drawn into this. Avoid it by making clear to Diane that as much as you care about her, you don’t approve, and want no contact with the

Dear Abby: Our son has not spoken to us in 21⁄2 years. This isn’t the first time it has happened. When we are asked how he and his family are doing and where they are living, we don’t know how to respond. What do we say when meeting someone new and they ask whether we have children? If we answer that we have one son, a number of questions are sure to follow for which we don’t have answers. Can you offer some appropriate responses to these questions that don’t require having to say, “We don’t know”? — Needs an Answer in Virginia Dear Needs an Answer: When someone asks how your son

and his family are doing and where they are living, say, “We are estranged.” And if you are asked by a stranger if you have any children, look the person in the eye and reply, “I’d rather not discuss it.” Dear Abby: I have a neighbor with a lovely family. While I enjoy talking to them, I don’t know how to politely tell her to stay home when I have company. She will send her children to my door selling school items when my adult children are here for dinner. She comes into my yard with her kids when I’m entertaining friends from out of town. I was brought up that if a neighbor has company, you should stay home unless you were invited. I just want some privacy when I have guests. — Nameless in the East Dear Nameless: You do have a problem, because it appears your neighbor is someone who never learned boundaries. Unless you tell the woman that when you’re entertaining guests, you want her to respect your privacy, she’ll continue inviting herself over. And if you prefer that your guests not be subjected to a sales pitch from her children, when they knock, tell them you have company, can’t talk to them right now and close your door.

Where Buyers And Sellers Meet

By David B. Caruso The Associated Press

NEW YORK — A judge has thrown out a lawsuit by a cookbook author who accused Jerry Seinfeld of hurting her reputation by mocking her on national television. In a ruling filed with the court Friday, state Justice Marcy Friedman said it was clear the comedian was joking when he called author Missy Chase Lapine a “wacko” during an appearance on the “Late Show with David Letterman” in 2007. The judge said Seinfeld also has a constitutional right to express his opinion. The suit stemmed from a legal battle in which Lapine accused Seinfeld’s wife, Jessica, of stealing her idea for a book on how to get children to eat healthy. Both women had published their books that year. Lapine’s was called, “The Sneaky Chef: Simple Strategies for Hiding Healthy Foods in Kids’ Favorite Meals.” Jessica Seinfeld’s was titled “Deceptively Delicious: Simple Secrets to Get Your Kids Eating Good Food.” The case became tabloid fodder, and Seinfeld addressed it on Letterman with a heaping of ridicule. “One of the fun facts of celebrity life is wackos will wait in the woodwork to pop out at certain moments of your life to inject a little adrenaline into your life experience,” Seinfeld told Letterman. “So there’s another woman who had another cookbook,” he continued. “My wife never saw the book, read the book, used the

Missy Chase Lapine, author of “The Sneaky Chef,” accused Jerry Seinfeld’s wife of stealing her idea for a cookbook. book. … But the books came out at the same time. So this woman says, ‘I sense this could be my wacko moment.’” Seinfeld said Lapine was accusing his wife of “vegetable plagiarism.” “She comes out and says, ‘You stole my mushed-up carrots. You can’t put mushed-up carrots in a casserole. I put mushed-up carrots in the casserole.’” A federal court eventually agreed with Seinfeld that the copyright suit was baseless and tossed it out last year. The judges said there was nothing original about the idea of “stockpiling vegetable purees for covert use in children’s food.” Friedman’s ruling, signed Wednesday but filed Friday, not-

ed that you can’t sue someone for libel in the U.S. merely for hurling an insult. You must show that a person lied about facts in order to damage a person’s reputation and did so in such a way that a reasonable person would have believed that those false statements were true. Given all of the hyperbole in his jokes — one of which implied that people who went by three names, like Lapin, were predisposed to become assassins — the judge said she found it “inconceivable” that a reasonable viewer thought he was serious about fearing for his safety. And as for Seinfeld’s suggestion that Lapine was an opportunist making up baseless plagiarism claims, the judge wrote that he was entitled to voice his opinion. “If the law were to the contrary, the protection of the First Amendment would be unacceptably denied to persons who publicly defend themselves against what they believe to be baseless charges or lawsuits,” she wrote. The judge also absolved “Deceptively Delicious” publisher HarperCollins of any wrongdoing. Lapine had accused the company of lifting ideas from a book proposal she sent the company in 2006. Lapine’s lawyer, Howard Miller, said he and his client were evaluating the opinion and would decide later whether to appeal. He had no other comment. Seinfeld’s attorney, Orin Snyder, called the decision “a complete victory for Jerry, and also a victory for the First Amendment and the right of comedians to tell jokes.”

Benedict Cumberbatch as the screaming, writhing newborn Creature in the opening scene of “Frankenstein” directed by Danny Boyle. Mary Shelley’s monster is birthed onstage by the Oscarwinning director.

It’s (gasp!) alive, not to mention peeved By Ben Brantley New York Times News Service

LONDON — Bet you’ve never seen baby pictures like these. In the thrilling first moments of the National Theater production of “Frankenstein,” directed with rough magic by Danny Boyle, a newborn tumbles hard from the womb and straight into the struggle that is life. Oh, the muscle-clenching pain of it, as this still inchoate being tries out its lungs, its limbs, its voice. When it takes its first wobbling steps, it’s an act of exultation, and we want to roar with it. Even those allergic to step-bystep chronicles of other people’s babies are sure to be spellbound by the initial progress of the big little guy at the center of Nick Dear’s adaptation of Mary Shelley’s archetypal monster novel of 1818. Alternately portrayed by the British stars Benedict Cumberbatch and Jonny Lee Miller (who also take turns playing the monster’s creator, Victor Frankenstein), this man-size infant will grow up to be reviled and hunted for his terrifying otherness. But in the scene that introduces the character known only as the Creature, he embodies the universal condition of being thrust naked and unprepared into a world he did not ask to join. As a director of films like “Trainspotting,” “Slumdog Millionaire” and the current “127 Hours,” Boyle has specialized in compelling studies of people trying to spring themselves from physically excruciating traps. Here that trap is life itself, and I can’t think of a more wrenching stage portrait of the terror and wonder of being born than the one he provides in the production that opened here on Wednesday night. Terror and wonder segue into more pedestrian feelings — including annoyance and a sense of opportunities lost — as this two-hour, intermission-free production continues on its brutal course. Like many children this production of “Frankenstein” has more original things to say before it learns to speak like a grown-up. Though Dear’s script hews closer to Shelley’s work than most adaptations (and effectively erases the image of Boris Karloff’s bolt-necked galoot), it also simplifies and coarsens its fascinating source, which is a sustained tremolo of Romantic angst.

Jonny Lee Miller, top, and Benedict Cumberbatch appear onstage in “Frankenstein.” But the astonishment of the play’s first quarter is enough to justify the high-decibel buzz that “Frankenstein” has been generating. (It is already all but sold out.) While Boyle, once a director at the Royal Court Theater, hasn’t done stage work in years, his vision here has none of a filmmaker’s representational literalness. Working with lyrical, William Blake-ish sets by Mark Tildesley (a production designer on his films “28 Days Later” and “Millions”), Boyle has created a world in which visual metaphors assume visceral strength. Unfortunately the Creature is more compelling than his creator here. Though this play (like the novel) presents its man and superman as different sides of the same personality, only the monster persuasively grabs our empathy, and it’s fortunate that both Miller and Cumberbatch have been given a shot at him. That opening sequence, in which the bloodied and naked Creature pushes through a membrane and into existence, has been staged as a brilliant, lonely ballet. Watching each of these actors (whom I saw on succeeding nights) find their feet and test their body parts is such a dizzy high point that it can’t be topped. (And their approaches are just different enough to make you want to see both.) It’s in the physical relationship between the two actors (especially if you get to see them in both roles) that you sense the real, unbreakable connection between these characters.

Happy birthday for Monday, Feb. 28, 2011: This year, you find the ability to move through issues quickly and effectively. Often you hear information that makes you shake your head. Confirm facts more often than not. Sometimes people find you to be unpredictable. True friends will understand this side of you. If you are single, you develop a greater sense of self. Someone you might not have considered before enters your life. If you are attached, the two of you build a more rewarding life because of a decision you make together. CAPRICORN is really your friend. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Others look up to you. You might be hard-pressed to achieve your desired goals. Examine bottom lines and perhaps rethink your approach. Planning works far better than action right now. Tonight: A meeting or get-together with friends. TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Take a negative and turn it into a positive as you attempt to get past the obvious issue. You open up to a new universe, making new possibilities happen. Listen well and understand where you might be restricting yourself. Tonight: Be willing to take a stand. GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Work with a partner, but be willing to take a stand. Your discomfort marks a situation, but you can get past the issue. Pull back

and become more aware of your options. Try detaching, and you’ll find answers. Know what is working. Tonight: Walk through an open door. CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Others seem to demand a lot, and in all likelihood, you will attempt to meet those requests. Be a good listener and remain open to new ideas. Schedule an important one-on-one discussion for late today or tomorrow. Tonight: Find your favorite person. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Clear as much off your plate as you can, as opportunities of a different type come forward. It would be a shame to have to say no. Much is gained with a gentle, perceptive attitude. If you cannot swallow what is going on, make it known. Tonight: Value an invitation. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Toss yourself into an activity, not halfway, but completely. When involved in this manner, all your different skills flow in one direction and don’t scatter. Do stop for a compliment on the way! Another person’s unanticipated action stops you in your tracks for a short while. Tonight: The only answer is “yes.” LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Once more, you could decide that a venture might not be a good idea. You put it on hold. Toss out the unnecessary in your life. Then decide what is of highest priority. Curb a tendency to procrastinate -- the best way? Get started. Tonight: Relax within the moment. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH Pressure with a situation will take your interest as well as some

self-discipline to handle. Don’t toss yourself into this mix until you have decided if this activity or choice is worth your effort. You can kindly say no. Your creativity sizzles; use it well. Tonight: Hanging out is fun. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH You could be more direct and forthright than you have been in a while. Look at a tendency to be self-indulgent and touchy. You can also decide to be selfdisciplined. An unexpected development could force you to regroup. Tonight: Out and about. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH You smile and draw in many more people. Your ability to understand problems helps, though your actions could be very unexpected to many. Allow yourself the freedom of the unexpected. Kind words help a nervous person relax. Tonight: Your treat. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH Know when to do less. You actually might spend more time quietly on what you want. You might need some downtime to evaluate what is happening. Schedule a get-together as late as possible. Use care incorporating a new person into your life. Tonight: As you like it. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH Act quickly with a project. Also, clear out any misunderstandings right now. You might be surprised at how easy it could be to patch up a problem. Think twice before going off on a tangent, or at least warn others beforehand. Tonight: Take some personal time. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

Continued from C1 There are rooms for holding meetings, taking breaks, doing computer work, shipping packages, processing water, cleaning water and, yes, housing servers. Several types of servers are operating, and they communicate with one another to provide an experience the end user should find seamless. There is also a room for destroying servers. “Of all rooms in the data center, this room, disc erase, is the most important room,” Patchett said, standing by devices that, with the push of a button, can drill a thick metal bit through a server and pulverize it. Most people don’t realize, he said, that Facebook protects its users’ personal information in many ways, including the ability to physically destroy servers that fail but still retain data. In the vast, cool, dark, sleek server rooms, servers light up with different colors, corresponding to their condition or their operations. A few rows keep separate certain servers that stay healthy in thick, hot air. In one area that is caged and yet to be filled, there will be servers containing information on financial transactions. Amid all the servers, which Patchett said will allow for the flow of “terabytes and terabytes of data,” a man sat on a stool in one aisle and fiddled with a single server. Two computer monitors on a bench next to him displayed code. “What are you doing, Chuck?” Patchett asked. “Fixing a machine,” the man replied. Patchett, who has managed data center sites around the world, including the one Google started in The Dalles in 2006, was keen on describing technical specs on the spaces for servers. “You want the ambient temperature to be the same everywhere,” Patchett said, referring to the majority of the server space, which stays cool because of the flow of brisk but cleaned air that

Continued from C1 “The project’s size has the potential to power a significant percentage of residential needs in Central Oregon,” according to project information from the U.S. Energy Department’s Geothermal Technologies Program. Geothermal exploration can be expensive, so the Recovery Act provided about $100 million for projects that use innovative techniques to help reduce the upfront risks. Funding for the geothermal testing being conducted outside Newberry National Volcanic Monument comes from the same program. Separately, the U.S. Department of Energy on Thursday OK’d a $96.8 million Recovery Act loan guarantee to build a 23-megawatt geothermal power plant at Neal Hot Springs in Malheur County. At Glass Buttes, the work is more research and development, said Patrick Walsh, Ormat staff geologist. Building a power plant remains years away, if at all. Researchers hope to combine data collected using different methods to create structural models to identify the most likely locations of the hot fluid below ground that may generate electricity. To get high-resolution images

Wasps Continued from C1 Yes, wasps can be taught to react to the whiff of bedbugs’ pheromones. All that Rains and Lewis say they need to get their company, SmartHound Technologies, on the road to addressing the nation’s outbreak of bloodsucking pests — among many other problems — is $200,000. But so far, raising capital for research and development has been a challenge. “If you suddenly discover a new chemical, there’s all kinds of chemical companies,” Lewis says. “All you have to do is plug it in to an existing infrastructure.” But when it comes to training bugs to swarm, no infrastructure exists. “So we’ve got this new tool with this big gap that we need to cross,” he adds. “At this point, that’s where we’re at: How can we get across that divide and take it to the marketplace?”

A marketable product The Wasp Hound provides a window into the difficult process of turning scientific research — especially groundbreaking research — into a marketable product. Rains, 45, an associate professor at the University of Georgia, and Lewis, 68, a retired research entomologist who worked for nearly 40 years for the Agricultural Research Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, have jointly patented the Wasp Hound with their respective institutions. They have teamed with the Georgia Centers of Innovation, a state economic development program, to begin attracting investors. But they know they face an uphill battle. “The term ‘wasp’ elicits a certain fear, though ours don’t sting people and are friendly,” Lewis says. Then there’s this problem: “We don’t know how to work with people who are venture capitalists. That’s not our thing; we’re scientists. I guess you’d say we’ve floundered a little bit.” The genesis of the Wasp Hound goes back to 1988, when Lewis and a colleague, J.H. Tumlinson, published a paper in the scientific journal Nature that demonstrated how the associative learning process used by insects rivals that of higher organisms. These findings, which spawned more published papers — and which Lewis says were so radical that “had we suggested them 25 years earlier, we would have been laughed out of our profession” — led to the idea that wasps, like dogs, could potentially be used to detect targets. First, Lewis and his colleagues had to answer an important ques-

Facebook officials have said they were attracted to Prineville because, among other reasons, it offers naturally cold air through winter and on sum-

mer nights. “You want the air to come down the aisle,” and thus cool all the servers, Patchett said. He said the technicians’ and IT support employees’ responsibilities boil down to a single task.

“Our job is to keep all of these servers alive,” he said. Patchett said Facebook is determined to be “fiscally responsible” in expanding more, if it does. “We don’t go just build willy-nilly, just ’cause we can,” he said. He said Facebook could build another data center near the one being completed if sufficient need for it becomes apparent. Carr, of EDCO, said most feedback he has heard from Crook County residents has been positive, although he knows some people there — as in any other place — dislike change in any form. But he believes when people come to see how a more diversified industry lineup can weather economic storms, they could come around and appreciate the addition of Facebook. “The reality is, a housing market decline — Facebook is going to be unfazed by that,” he said.

of the surface, they gathered data using lidar, which stands for light detection and ranging, according to the Oregon Lidar Consortium. It’s similar to radar, radio detection and ranging, and to sonar, sound detection and ranging, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. But lidar uses an aircraftmounted laser, which bombards the surface with light pulses and generates enough data to generate images showing ground vegetation, stream channels and faults, which might indicate geothermal sources. The detail in lidar images is light years ahead of regular aerial photos. Researchers have combined lidar data with gravity and magnetic measurements, which provide information about the rock structure below ground, and aerial surveys of mineral layers, which might indicate geothermal, according to project summaries. They will bring all the data together to locate the best spot for Ormat to drill two 3,000- to 4,000-foot test wells in the summer. If those results look good, the company plans to evaluate the development potential, according to the summary. Tim Doran can be reached at 541-383-0360 or at tdoran@bendbulletin.com.

While their research showed that wasps were undeniably learning and responding to chemicals and stimuli within their natural context, it was less clear whether they could learn to track things not found in their habitats: incendiary devices, say, or the chemicals typically used in arson. The answer: “We found they could detect almost anything.”

Harnessing skills Then it became an engineering problem: how to design a tool that harnessed this insect’s skills in a way that people could easily use? That’s where Rains came in. “We devised a way of detecting the change in behavior of the wasps that would tell us when they detected an odor,” he says. “Pavlov’s dog, when you rang the bell, would always salivate. Well, wasps don’t salivate, but we found some specific behaviors they did do.” When wasps have been trained to associate a particular odor with a reward — a good, long drink of sugar water — they get excited when they smell it. “They really move around,” Lewis says. “Like pigs to a trough.” But unlike pigs, these adult wasps live only about three weeks. Building the Wasp Hound was a process of trial and error. The first device designed by Rains required the wasps to head toward the odor source by crawling through an opening equipped with an infrared signal that, when interrupted, would alert researchers that the odor was present. But the system didn’t provide immediate results necessary to track an odor to its exact location. “You could tell well before the wasps actually went in the hole that they’d discovered the odor,” Rains says. That prototype was scrapped, and another was designed. This one was equipped with a fan that pulls air into it. If being used in a hotel room, say, it would be aimed at the headboard of the bed, a common spot for bedbugs. A cartridge that contains five wasps is popped into the device. A camera tracks the wasps’ movements, and those images are fed into a software program that measures food-searching behavior — what nonscientists would call swarming. “It tells us, usually within about 20 seconds, if they’ve detected the odor,” Rains said. While they hope to eventually use the product for all kinds of detection — from forensics to food safety — they are counting on the furor surrounding bedbugs to encourage people to give their wasps a chance. A market price for the product has not yet been determined.

LOS ANGELES — n the most memorable line in one of the most memorable of baseball songs, he was third. Willie, Mickey and the Duke. On most lists of the greatest Dodgers in franchise history, he is also third. Jackie, Sandy and the Duke. In the wake of his death by natural causes Sunday at age 84, shouldn’t it finally be time for Duke Snider to stand alone? “He played every day, he did the job he was supposed to do, and did Duke Snider it better than anyone,” said former Dodgers Inside teammate Don • Duke Snider’s Newcombe. complete “That’s enough, obituary, isn’t it?” Page B5 It was more than enough, Snider quietly carving a legacy as perhaps the greatest Dodgers position player ever, one of the team’s greatest ambassadors, and a star who helped carry the team from Brooklyn to Los Angeles. The Hall of Fame center fielder’s accomplishments might not fit neatly into a song, but they are indelibly etched into a Dodgers’ culture that he was still actively nurturing as recently as two winters ago. The team was holding a rookie seminar at Dodger Stadium, and Snider, although ailing and confined to a wheelchair, traveled from San Diego to talk to the kids. “You have to learn to hate Halloween,” he told the wide-eyed youngsters. One of them had the nerve to ask why. “Giants colors,” he said. Even though Snider spent his retirement in San Diego County, he was always happy to hang out at Chavez Ravine, his presence an important symbol of those days when the players really did play for the name on the front of their shirt. “You cannot underestimate the impact Duke Snider has had on Dodger history, from Brooklyn to Los Angeles,” said Dodgers’ historian Mark Langill. “He is one of the links that will live forever.” Snider probably will forever lead the franchise in home runs (389), RBIs (1,271) and extra-base hits (814), yet one of his greatest achievements was simply being in the lineup for the opening of Dodger Stadium in 1962.

entral Oregon’s most decorated cyclist is waving goodbye. No, not to the sport to which she has dedicated her life over the past 30 years — setting world records and accumulating armfuls of bling, including two Paralympic gold medals. In fact, this 54-year-old has no plans to scale back from national and international competition anytime soon. What Barbara Buchan is bidding farewell to is Bend, the community she has called home for more than two decades. Thankfully, we can cheer for her one last time as one of our brightest hometown cycling stars. This week, Buchan heads to Italy with 10 other members of Team USA for the Paracycling Track World Championships. There, she will compete on March 12 in the 3,000-meter pursuit — the event in which she claimed gold at the 2008 Beijing Games and in which she is the

reigning world champion — and on March 13 in the 500-meter time trial. She competes in the C2 division for cyclists with brain injuries or similarly challenging disabilities. (Riders are grouped into categories from C1 to C5, based on their injuries.) But when she returns to Bend after the world championships, she is packing her bags and heading to Boise, Idaho, the city where she graduated from high school and college, and where her cycling career began. She wants to be closer to family — her mother and her two sisters live in Idaho — and she can afford to buy a house there without being saddled with a mortgage. She’ll continue to work part time for Home Depot. In 1982, Buchan was a promising young cyclist making a bid for a spot on the U.S. Cycling Team when she was involved in a horrific, life-changing bicycle accident that left her unconscious and severely injured. Buchan spent two months in a coma, awakened with her arms locked and elbows fused in position, and went on to undergo five brain surgeries and years of rehab. See Barbara / D5

Cycling • Austrian cyclist Knopf gets four-year doping ban: Austria’s anti-doping agency has banned cyclist Michael Knopf for four years for supplying other riders with banned substances. NADA says there was “not sufficient” evidence that Knopf purchased or used forbidden drugs. Knopf, who can appeal the ban in court, and his KTM teammates Hannes Gruendlinger and Josef Kugler were barred from last year’s Tour of Austria after NADA opened proceedings against them for alleged infringements over the past five years. Earlier, NADA banned Gruendlinger for six years for buying, possessing, selling and using doping products, while Kugler received a two-year suspension for attempted blood doping.

Tennis • Del Potro wins first title since 2009 U.S. Open: Juan Martin del Potro won his first title in his first final since capturing the 2009 U.S. Open with a 6-4, 6-4 victory over Janko Tipsarevic on Sunday in Delfray Beach, Fla. The 22-year-old Del Potro, on the comeback trail after missing most of last season with a right wrist injury, looked fatigued throughout the finals of the Delray Beach International Tennis Championships. But he willed himself to victory over the erratic Tipsarevic, then thrust his arms in the air and kept kissing his wrist — almost in thanks for healing. “Three months ago I was thinking I’ll be trying to play tournaments,” Del Potro said. “Now I won a tournament. It’s great to win a tournament after a year.” Del Potro should make a big move from No. 166 when the next ATP Tour rankings are released. But he knows there is still a long way to go before he contends with top players again. The Argentine, who has eight career wins, reached the semifinals of San Jose and Memphis in advance of playing Delray Beach.

Track and Field • Suhr sets American record in pole vault: Granted a rare fourth attempt in her American-record bid in the pole vault, 2008 Olympic silver medalist Jenn Suhr cleared 15-feet, 11¼-inches Sunday in the USA Indoor Track and Field Championships in Albuquerque, N.M. Officials determined the bar was improperly set on her unsuccessful her third try, so Suhr got another opportunity and made good, upping her own mark of two years ago by an inch. “You”ll always take another jump if you can,” she said. “I knew I could make it. I know I was over it. It’s just a matter of figuring out the standards and poles. That’s the way it’s been all year and I finally nailed it this time.” Suhr’s record was one of two in the meet, after shot putter Jillian Camarena-Williams went 65-feet, 2¼ inches to break Ramona Pagel’s distance from 1987 by two inches. “I’m shocked,” Camarena-Williams said. “I’ve been training well, but you never expect that. I knew I had a big throw coming, but I didn’t know how big.”

Robert Hight won the Funny Car final while Jason Line won in Pro Stock. Lucas powered to a run of 3.835 seconds at 316.38 mph, while Langdon lost traction for a moment and slowed to a 4.047 at 313.73. The two Lucas Oil Racing teammates graduated in 2001 from Jurupa Valley High School in nearby Mira Loma, Calif. “I’ve never been in the points lead in Top Fuel before, and I don’t really even know how to feel right now,” Lucas said. “Getting to race my teammate Shawn, who I went to high school with, this is just a dream come true, it really is.” -from wire reports

OSU beats Indiana at Kleberg Oregon takes series From wire reports CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS — Danny Hayes’ pinch-hit double drove in two in the eighth inning and gave the Oregon State baseball team a 7-5 victory over Indiana Sunday in the Beavers’ finale at the Kleberg Bank Classic. Hayes, pinch hitting for Luke Acosta, drove a two-run double to left with no outs, scoring Ryan Dunn and Parker Berberet, giving the Beavers at 6-5 lead. Two batters later, and with the bases loaded, Tyler Smith walked, giving the Beavers their final 7-5 lead. Cole Baylis picked up the win after working 1 2⁄3 scoreless innings. He walked one and struck out two to pick up his first win of the season. The three runs in the eighth erased a one-run lead for Indiana, 5-4, after seven innings. The Bea-

vers held a 4-3 lead after five but the Hoosiers scored runs in both the sixth and seventh innings to take the lead. The Beavers were led offensively by Berberet and Andrew Susac, who tallied two hits apiece. Berberet tied Hayes for the team lead with two RBIs apiece. Cam Booser started for the Beavers and went three full innings; he did not get the decision. Booser, making his second career start, allowed four hits and a run while striking out one. The Beavers improved to 4-3 this season with the win while Indiana dropped to 3-3. Oregon State plays in its final game in Texas today when OSU takes on UT-San Antonio at Wolff Stadium. First pitch is scheduled for 10 a.m. PST.

over Saint Mary’s From wire reports EUGENE — Christian Jones struck out a career-high 12 and the Oregon Ducks took advantage of two second-inning errors to squeak past Saint Mary’s, 3-2, on Sunday in front of 1,405 fans at PK Park. Jones (1-0) tripled his pervious best effort for strikeouts in a game, tossing seven innings and allowing one run on five hits and two walks. The sophomore southpaw, in his first year as a starter, had never pitched more than four innings for the Ducks (4-3). Kellen Moen recorded the final six outs for his second save, allowing just one hit — a solo

home run to Patrick Wisdom in the top of the eighth. After falling 3-2 on Friday night, the Ducks won the home series two games to one. UO blanked Saint Mary’s on Saturday, 3-0. Freshman Aaron Jones extended his hitting streak to seven games with a two-for-three afternoon. He was the only player on either team with multiple hits in the game, although he was thrown out leading off the third, trying to stretch a single into a double. Oregon’s opening homestand continues with a nonconference game against Portland on Tuesday at 5 p.m.

Quick start leads Hawks over Blazers By Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press

Next up • Houston Rockets at Portland Trail Blazers • When: Tuesday, 7 p.m. • TV: Comcast SportsNet Northwest • Radio: KBND-AM 1110, KRCOAM 690

PORTLAND — Jamal Crawford had 23 points, including a key threepointer with 1:36 left, and the Atlanta Hawks held off a late rally by the Portland Trail Blazers for a 90-83 victory on Sunday night. Joe Johnson added 22 points and Atlanta led by as many as 23 in the sixth of a seven-game road trip. The Hawks are 3-3 on the trip, which wraps up tonight in Denver. Johnson’s three-pointer gave the Hawks an 80-60 lead with 5:54 left in the game, but the Blazers narrowed it to 82-74 after layups from LaMarcus Aldridge and Gerald Wallace. Andre Miller’s layup closed the gap further, capping a 16-2 run, the comeback stalled when Crawford’s threepointer put the Hawks up 85-78. Miller’s short jumper with 1:29 left was off, and Crawford hit a pair of free throws that all but sealed it. Miller led the Blazers with 20 points,

while Aldridge had 19. Josh Smith added 14 points and 11 rebounds for the Hawks. Kirk Hinrich had eight points off the bench in his second game with the Hawks. He was acquired along with Hilton Armstrong from the Washington Wizards for guards Mike Bibby, Maurice Evans and Jordan Crawford before the NBA’s trade deadline this week. The Blazers saw the debut of Wallace, who was acquired from Charlotte seven minutes before Thursday’s trade deadline in exchange for Portland centers Joel Przybilla and Sean Marks, forward Dante Cunningham and two conditional first-round draft picks. A fan in the crowd held a sign that said “Welcome Crash,” Wallace’s nickname. He received a standing ovation when he came into the game with 4:44 left in the first half. He finished with nine points. The Blazers also saw the return of center Marcus Camby from arthroscop-

ic surgery on his left knee. He missed 16 games after he was in Portland’s victory over Minnesota on Jan. 17. The 6-foot-11, 15-year veteran was the Blazers’ only option at center following the trade with the Bobcats. Portland beat the Denver Nuggets 107-106 on Friday without him, sliding Aldridge to center to make do. The Blazers got a scare when Aldridge left the game with 1:58 to go in the first quarter and appeared to be limping. The team’s top scorer with 22.5 points per game returned with 5:46 left in the half. Atlanta went on an 15-0 run to go up 42-27 with 3:14 left in the first half, while Portland struggled in Aldridge’s temporary absence. The Hawks led by as many as 15 points en route to a 4836 first-half lead. Blazers fans were upset about what appeared to be a disparity of calls for the Hawks. Atlanta made 14-of-16 free throws in the first half, while Portland was one for three.

NBA ROUNDUP

NBA SCOREBOARD

Anthony, Stoudemire lead Knicks to victory over Heat The Associated Press MIAMI — With the game on the line, LeBron James got past Carmelo Anthony. Not Amare Stoudemire, however. And just like that, the New York Knicks — with defense, no less — knocked off the Miami Heat. Chauncey Billups made the go-ahead three-pointer with 1:01 left, Stoudemire blocked James’ layup try with seven seconds remaining to protect a one-point lead, and the Knicks beat the Heat 91-86 on Sunday night. Anthony scored 29 points and Stoudemire added 16 points and 10 rebounds. Billups had 16 points for the Knicks, who rallied from a 15-point, first-half deficit and improved to 2-1 since the megatrade with Denver that dramatically changed their roster. James scored 27 for Miami, which had won seven straight at home. Chris Bosh added 20 points and 12 rebounds, and Dwyane Wade finished with only 12 points for the Heat. James had a chance to tie it, but missed a three-pointer with 2 seconds remaining, and the Knicks leaped in celebration. Miami is now tied with Chicago in the loss column, each with 17 in the tight race in the East. The Heat do have three more wins, but fell a half-game behind Boston for the top spot in the conference. And it was there for the Heat’s taking, after holding an 82-76 lead with four minutes left. Billups was charged with a technical after the Knicks argued Wade knocked the ball out of bounds, and Mike Miller hit the free throw. On the same possession, James had the ball knocked away by Anthony as the shot clock was expiring but still managed to muscle an attempt to the rim. Bosh got the rebound, quickly tossed the ball to James for a layup and a six-point Miami lead. New York, as it had all night, came back quickly. A 9-2 run over the next three minutes, capped by Billups’ three-pointer over Wade’s outstretched arm with 1:01 left, gave the Knicks an 85-84 edge — and few people in the sellout crowd remained seated at that point. Billups added a steal on the next Miami possession and set up Shawne Williams for two free throws and an 87-84 lead.

Alan Diaz / The Associated Press

New York’s Carmelo Anthony (7) shoots over Miami Heat’s LeBron James (6) in the first quarter of Sunday’s game in Miami, Sunday. James answered with two free throws, getting the Heat within one again. Bill Walker turned the ball over with 12.7 seconds left when he was unable to handle an inbound pass, and with that, Miami had its chance. James drove on Anthony down the left side of the lane, but Stoudemire swatted the two-time reigning MVP’s try away. Miller scored 10 for Miami. Walker had 10 for the Knicks, who won despite shooting 39 percent. It was the fourth and final regular-season meeting for the Knicks and Heat, and Wade could only point to one reason why Sunday night seemed so different. “Melo,” he said before the game. True, but the scene was anything but mellow. Predictably, it was a doublefeature of sorts — part showdown, part show. Knicks superfan Spike Lee was having a conversation with Landry Fields during pregame warmups. Actor Michael Clarke Duncan and soccer star Thierry Henry had prime seats, tennis star Venus Williams appeared and Miami’s notoriously late-settling crowd was in place in plenty of time to lustily boo New York’s starters as they were introduced. Oh, there was a game, too. And from the get-go, James

was in big-game mode. Williams blocked Erick Dampier down low 2 minutes into the game. No problem — James simply knocked the ball away from Stoudemire, then threw a nolook, backward-over-his-head pass to Dampier for a dunk. A minute later, James dribbled behind his back to get clear of Billups, slapped the ball to Wade, then received an alley-oop pass back and slammed it with his left hand.

Washington State stuns rival Washington The Associated Press

Ted S. Warren / The Associated Press

Washington’s Matthew Bryan-Amaning (11) looks on as Washington State’s Abe Lodwick (31), of Bend, grabs a rebound in the first half of Sunday’s game in Seattle.

SEATTLE — Somewhere in a week of meetings and assessment, honest accountability and motivational speeches, the same Washington State team that looked lost a week earlier found a needed spark. The Cougars discovered it just in time to stun their rivals and keep their slim postseason hopes alive. “There is not a better feeling in basketball than winning in your rivals’ gym and seeing their fans file out early,” Washington State’s Klay Thompson said. Thompson overcame a sloppy first half to score 26 points, DeAngelo Casto added 20 on the inside and Washington State completed the season sweep of Washington with an 80-69 victory Sunday night. Thompson came up big against the Huskies for the second time after scoring 25 in an 87-80 win last month in Pullman that started Washington on a costly three-

MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL ROUNDUP game skid. Now it was the Cougars (18-10, 8-8 Pac10) ending Washington’s hopes — however slim — of a Pac-10 regular-season title. It was equally impressive and stunning for the guys in crimson, who heard their pockets of fans chanting “Let’s go, Cougars!” in the final minutes while those in purple quietly filed out. The same Washington State team that had stumbled at last-place Arizona State just eight days earlier became the first road team to win on Washington’s home floor in more than a year, snapping the Huskies’ 14-game home winning streak.

GOLF ROUNDUP

Matt York / The Associated Press

Luke Donald, of England, tosses his ball into the gallery after defeating Martin Kaymer, of Germany, 3 and 2 in the finals of the Match Play Championship golf tournament Sunday in Marana, Ariz.

Donald takes MPC title The Associated Press MARANA, Ariz. — Luke Donald had only two wins around the world in the last five years, so not many would have given him a snowball’s chance in Arizona of winning the Match Play Championship. Turns out be he was more unbeatable than anyone in the 13year history of the tournament. When he polished off Martin Kaymer on the 16th hole Sunday, Donald became the first player to go an entire week without trailing in any match. He played only 89 holes in six matches, another record, and led after 81 of them. And he was so dominant he became the first player to win any golf tournament without ever playing the 18th hole. Ultimately, all that mattered to Donald was simply winning. “To come here and beat the top 63 players in the world is very gratifying,” Donald said after his 3-and-2 victory. “It’s been an amazing week. I had a lot of good things happen — made a bunch of birdies, never trailed in a match. Kind of one of those weeks where a lot of things went my way.” On a bizarre day in the high desert, which began with snow covering the fairways and featured a 10-minute delay when sleet coated the fourth fairway, Donald spoiled Kaymer’s rise to No. 1 in the world with a victory that was a long time coming. It had been five years since he last won on American soil. A

year ago, Donald had 10 finishes in the top three with only one trophy to show for it, against a weak field at the Madrid Masters. But with a flawless short game that stacks up to anyone at the moment, Donald picked up his first World Golf Championship and moved to a career-best No. 3 in the world. “My goal every year is to win,” said Donald, who made 32 birdies this week. “It’s a long time since I’ve tried to play for money. I felt like I hadn’t won my fair share for as good a player as I felt I was and could be. It was frustrating to me. “To come here and compete against the best players in the world and win the trophy is very gratifying.” The consolation prize for Kaymer was going to No. 1, which he assured by reaching the championship match. The 26-year-old German becomes only the 14th player to reach the top. “It was a very good week for me,” Kaymer said. “Of course, I was hoping to win today. I was trying everything I could. I just didn’t play as good as the last few days. And the way Luke plays, even a decent round isn’t enough.” The match was all square going to the back nine when Donald made a marvelous up-anddown from the waste area short of the 10th green to avoid falling behind for the first time all week. He won the next two holes, and Kaymer couldn’t catch him. Matt Kuchar defeated Bubba Watson in the consolation match

and will go to No. 10 in the world. The next world ranking will be Kaymer, Lee Westwood, Donald and Graeme McDowell. It’s the first time since March 15, 1992, that the top four spots have been occupied by Europeans. “We’ve really had a purple patch on world golf,” Donald said. “Having Lee become No. 1 a few months ago, now Martin No. 1, obviously Graeme has been playing great, and to make a jump like this ... whether I deserve No. 3 in the world, I don’t know. But certainly in terms of my work ethic and wanting it, then I do deserve it.” Also on Sunday: Wagner wins PGA title in playoff PLAYA DEL CARMEN, Mexico — Johnson Wagner won the Mayakoba Golf Classic for his second PGA Tour title, beating Spencer Levin with a par on the first hole of a playoff. Wagner, also the 2008 Houston Open winner, closed with a 4-under 67 to match Levin at 17under 267 on the Greg Normandesigned El Camaleon course. Levin shot a 65. Late birdies lift Webb to win SINGAPORE — Karrie Webb surged ahead with four straight birdies on the back nine and held off Japan’s Chie Arimura for a one-shot victory at the HSBC Women’s Champions. The 36-year-old Webb, who earned $210,000 for the victory, was even on the front nine and bogeyed No. 10 before the string of birdies on Nos. 11-14 at Tanah Merah Country Club.

Continued from D1 Despite pleas from Springfield coach Grant McHill and the school’s athletic director, Audrea Shelley, the district chose to have the team forfeit rather than send it to Bend. “I feel horrible for the Springfield seniors,” Munson said Wednesday after the forfeit was official. “But tons of other teams at lower classifications traveled those days.” Springfield officials suggested moving the game to a neutral site — The Dalles or Sweet Home. One last-ditch idea was for Springfield and Summit to play in Corvallis on Friday night, with the winner of that game then playing Corvallis High on Saturday as the play-in plan dictated. Springfield even asked Summit to travel over the pass and play at Springfield High on Wednesday. Apparently, the road conditions were dangerous only for eastbound traffic. Must be something to do with La Nina. “I felt a little bad,” Munson said about not agreeing to move the game site. “But how can I get on a bus and tell the parents of my kids it’s not safe enough for them (Springfield) to come over, but it is for us?” The most ridiculous part about the forfeit was that Marshfield High out of Coos Bay came from the exact same direction as Springfield on Wednesday for a Class 5A girls play-in game at Bend High. The only difference was that Marshfield had to travel an additional 115 miles from the coast to get to Springfield, and then make its way over the mountains, via Santiam Pass. “For whatever reason, the higher-ups at Springfield were more conservative,” Munson said. “(Springfield) should have come Tuesday. They could have come (Wednesday) but they chose not to. … The way things lined up, there was no out for those guys.” When Springfield refused to travel for the second day, the matter went to representatives from Class 5A’s seven different leagues. The reps voted 7-0 to award Summit a victory by forfeit if Springfield did not travel to Bend on Wednesday. “We fought and we fought,” said McHill, Springfield’s firstyear coach. “My A.D. was on the phone for two straight days trying to figure out how to get there. It was a safety issue, and the district didn’t want to take a chance.” Was it really a safety issue, though? For years, Central Oregon teams have been expected to make travel concessions to Portland-area and Willamette Valley teams. When the Oregon School Activities Association placed Redmond in the Salembased Central Valley Confer-

Playoff lineup announced for eight area hoop teams E ight Central Oregon high school basketball teams will be in state playoff action this week, and seven of them are just one win away from securing a berth in their respective state tournaments. The Oregon School Activities Association on Sunday announced seedings and pairings for the upcoming playoffs. Following is a breakdown of the games involving Central Oregon teams, with seedings in parentheses. Game times are to be announced.

CLASS 6A GIRLS Wednesday • Redmond (No. 7) plays at Beaverton (No. 2); winner advances to second round of playoffs on Saturday. Second-round winners advance to state tournament. (6A girls state championship tournament March 10-12 at Rose Garden Arena, Portland.)

CLASS 5A GIRLS Saturday • Mountain View (No. 4) hosts Marist (No. 5) of Eugene; winner advances to state tournament. (5A girls state championship tournament March 10-12 at Matthew Knight Arena, Eugene.)

CLASS 4A GIRLS Saturday • Madras (No. 2) hosts Siuslaw (No. 7) of Florence; winner advances to state tournament. • Crook County (No. 7) plays at Central (No. 2) of Independence; winner advances to state tournament. (4A girls state championship tournament March 9-11 at Gill Coliseum, Corvallis.)

CLASS 5A BOYS Friday • Bend (No. 1) hosts Marist (No. 8) of Eugene; winner advances to state tournament. • Mountain View (No. 2) hosts Sherwood (No. 7); winner advances to state tournament. (5A boys state championship tournament March 9-12 at Matthew Knight Arena, Eugene.)

CLASS 4A BOYS Friday • Sisters (No. 6) plays at Tillamook (No. 3); winner advances to state tournament. • Madras (No. 7) plays at Cottage Grove (No. 2); winner advances to state tournament.

ence five years ago, the move prompted a lawsuit filed by Salem schools who argued that they did not want to travel to Central Oregon. But Bend-area schools up until this school year were expected to regularly travel for league contests more than five hours to Pendleton and Hermiston on one of the state’s most dangerous roads, U.S. Highway 97. The logic seemed to be that because Central Oregon schools had historically gotten the short end of the stick, it was all right to give them the shaft again. Which brings us back to Munson. Summit’s fourth-year coach is a competitor who had no desire to win a game by forfeit. He wanted to play. But imagine the slippery slope that might have developed had he

gone along with Springfield’s request. How many teams in the future would play the “safety” card when scheduled to travel over the Cascades if a precedent had been set by Summit for moving contests because of questionable travel conditions? This was not an issue just for Summit or for Central Oregon high schools, but for any school in the eastern part of the state. “If I try and accommodate (Springfield),” Munson said, “then nothing is stopping people from not coming here to play.” Send letters of gratitude to Dan Munson, C/O Summit High.

Jeff Gordon ends winless streak at 66 races set by Edwards in the fall. Conditions were a little different for Sunday’s race.

That meant a change in setups for all the

AVONDALE, Ariz. — Just before peeling off what he called a lame burnout near the finish line, Jeff Gordon screamed into his radio, the emotion pouring out with his voice. “We just beat Kyle Busch!” he yelled. Gordon did much more than that. He was headed back to Victory Lane, the longest winless streak of his career finally in the rearview mirror. Overcoming a slew of potentially disastrous incidents, Gordon passed Kyle Busch with eight laps left and stretched his lead from there, ending his winless streak at 66 races Sunday at Phoenix International Raceway. “It feels so amazing. I can’t tell you how amazing this feels,” Gordon said. “It’s been a long time, I know, and I’m going to savor this one so much.” PIR has been the place to end long winless streaks lately. Ryan Newman halted a 77-race checkerless streak at PIR in the spring and Carl Edwards stopped his run at 70 races without a win in the fall. Gordon, a four-time series champion, was mired in a drought that seemed inexplicable for one of NASCAR’s most successful and popular drivers. Even in ending it, it wasn’t easy. Coming off a disappointing Daytona 500, Gordon struggled in qualifying and started 20th. Early in the race, he was knocked into the wall by Edwards and later had to avoid a massive wreck that led to a 14-minute red flag. He also had to pull behind another car to shake loose a piece

Gordon still managed to lead a race-high 138 laps and was able to pull alongside then bump Busch out of the way to win for the first time since April 2009 at Texas. It was his 83rd career victory, tying him with Cale Yarborough for fifth all-time. “He was on a mission today, that’s for sure,” said Busch, who held on for second to fall just short of winning all three NASCAR races in the same weekend for the second time in his career. “When Jeff Gordon has a good car and he’s got the opportunity to beat you, he’s going to beat you, there’s no doubt about that. He’s my hero and I’ve always watched him and what he’s been able to

accomplish over the years, so it’s no surprise that he beat us.” Jimmie Johnson, Kevin Harvick and Ryan Newman rounded out the top five in a 312-lap race around PIR’s mile oval, the last on the current surface. The quirky old track will undergo a $10 million repaving and reconfiguration project before the fall race, a move that isn’t popular with many of the drivers. The old bump-and-crack-filled surface held up well in its final weekend with a flurry of records. Clint Bowyer set the qualifying mark in trucks on Friday, then Busch did it in Nationwide on Saturday. Edwards set a new Sprint Cup qualifying record at the track, hitting 137.279 mph to barely edge Kurt Busch on a day when 15 drivers eclipsed the previous record

Riesch wins women’s World Cup super-G The Associated Press

Rob Kerr / The Bulletin

Barb Buchan is stabilized by her coach Bart Bowen during a training session on rollers Thursday at Rebound Sports Performance Lab in Bend.

Barbara Continued from D1 She returned to the world of elite sports and competed in the 1988 and 1992 Paralympic Summer Games as a runner. Cycling was added as a Paralympic event for the 2004 Athens Games, and Buchan placed fourth in the cycling time trial. Four years later, she became an international sports figure when she twice claimed gold at the Beijing Olympics. Throughout her cycling career, Buchan has collected countless national and world championship medals both on the track and on the road. “Going to Beijing was the highlight of my life,” says Buchan, who moved to Central Oregon in 1990. “Bringing back two gold medals to Bend was a moment that I will always cherish. I appreciate all the support and love from such a great community.” In preparation for the track world championships next week, Buchan has for several months made twice-monthly trips to Southern California to train with the national team on the Olympic-size indoor velodrome there. But recently she has encountered some challenges on the bike. She’s had difficulty keeping her balance on the track, and she loses control of her right arm, which slips off the handlebars unexpectedly — lasting effects of her 1982 injury. Consequently, she has experienced several hard falls. “She’s dealing with a disability, and with that comes challenges in everyday life, and riding a bicycle is one of them,” says Craig Griffin, high performance director for the U.S. Paracycling Team. “(Track events) start from a standstill and you have to accelerate. The velodrome is banked and she has balance issues, and she’s been slipping off the track.” Back at home in Bend, Buchan trains almost daily with her cycling coach, Bart Bow-

Barbara Buchan waves during the medal ceremony after winning the gold medal in the women’s individual pursuit in track cycling at the Beijing Paralympics on Wednesday. It was Buchan’s first gold in the five Paralympics in which she has competed after a horrific crash in 1982 changed her life forever. en of Rebound Sports Performance Lab, to improve her strength and balance. According to Bowen, even after 30 years on the bike, Buchan doesn’t appear to be losing her firepower. “Barb can always push hard; she’s definitely a competitor,” Bowen says. “But for her, it’s

not about how hard she can go. It’s about how hard she can go and still stay upright on the track. That’s her biggest hurdle.” To reclaim her title as world champion in the pursuit in Italy, the reigning world champ will need to post a top-four qualifying time to reach the finals. Despite the recent setbacks, Buchan remains both committed and motivated to compete on the world stage. She even has her sights set on reaching the London Paralympic Games in 2012. She also remains a role model, a source of inspiration and an influential leader of the U.S. Paracycling Team, says Griffin, who notes that Buchan is the oldest member of the team by 15 years. “She’s still in her prime,” he continues. “She’s kind of timeless in that her performance has been consistent over the eight years. We really haven’t seen a decline in her performance related to age.” After Buchan moves to Boise, she and Bowen plan to continue working together — via e-mail, internet training programs and phone calls. With a rigorous training schedule over the past few months and the world championships on the horizon, Buchan has had little time to stop and think about what it means to leave Central Oregon and her vast network of friends and supporters who live here. “I’m sure it’ll hit me,” she said. Though she’ll have a new address come spring, what is not likely to change is Buchan’s passion for cycling, and the unprecedented cycling legacy she developed during her time spent in Central Oregon. “She’ll probably always ride a bike,” Griffin maintains. “It’s her life, her passion, her lifestyle. Whether she’s on the (U.S. Paracycling) team or not, she’ll still be riding.” Heather Clark can be reached at cyclingcentral@bendbulletin.com.

ARE, Sweden — Maria Riesch of Germany beat Lindsey Vonn by one hundredth of a second to win a World Cup super-G race on Sunday and extend her overall lead over her American rival. Vonn watched at the bottom of the Olympia course in the Swedish resort of Are as Riesch flew over the final jump, then gave a wry smile as Riesch clinched victory. Riesch pumped her fist in delight and let out a loud yell. “I’m also really happy that I can be back on the top of the podium in super-G as well. My last win in super-G (was) three years ago,” Riesch said. “I was having a hard time inbetween in super-G. Finally I’m back and ready to win the speed events. That’s good.” Vonn won Saturday’s downhill for her 40th World Cup race win. “I thought I skied a good race. I was happy with my run and unfortunately I lost by one hundredth of a second, which is a snap of your finger,” Vonn said. “That’s life.” Riesch won in 1 minute, 13.24 seconds for her sixth race win of the season. It was her first of the season in super-G and the 26-year-old has now won races in four different disciplines this season. “It’s definitely frustrating, especially at this time of the year, with the overall World Cup so tight,” Vonn said. “One hundredth (costs you) twenty points. It would have been great if we could have just tied.” “I mean, one hundredth is nothing,” she added. “You can find it from any place, whether it’s pushing out from the start or reaching out for the finish line a bit more.” Julia Mancuso of the United

Toews scored twice in regulation and had the lone goal in the shootout to lead the Chicago Blackhawks over the Phoenix Coyotes 4-3 on Sunday night for their fourth straight victory. Marian Hossa also scored for Chicago, which improved to 6-12 in its last nine games despite squandering a pair of two-goal leads. Toews, Chicago’s captain, has points in five straight games, with three goals and four assists during that span. The timing couldn’t be better as the defending Stanley Cup champions try to maneuver back into playoff position in the congested Western Conference standings. “We’ve come out with great starts the last couple of games,” Toews said. “It’s right there in front of us. We’ve got to carry that effort right through to the third.” After building 2-0 and 3-1 leads, the Blackhawks were caught in the second when Phoenix’s Adrian Aucoin, Keith Yandle and Martin Hanzal scored to tie the game at three after 40 minutes. The Blackhawks, however, regrouped in the scoreless third before Toews won it in the shootout. He converted Chicago’s first attempt against Ilya Bryzgalov, while Blackhawks goalie Corey Crawford stopped Scottie Upshall, Radim Vrbata and Kyle Turris. “We’ve had a lot of similar games,” Toews said. “You’ve got to be confident going into the third period. That’s what we’ve told ourselves.”

NHL ROUNDUP Crawford made 26 saves in regulation, while Bryzgalov stopped 38 shots for the Coyotes. “We had a great first period, a lot of momentum,” Chicago coach Joel Quenneville said. “We lost a little of it at the end of the second, but had a good third period. “Crow (Crawford) was solid in the shootout. A couple of goals, we screened him ourselves.” The Coyotes are 0-2-1 following an eight-game winning streak, but were happy to come up with a point as they finished a five-game road trip. “It was huge for us to get at least one point and give ourselves an opportunity to get two in the shootout,” Yandle said. “But they’ve got a pretty highskill team, and they’re tough to beat in the shootout. “Just for us to get one point out of that game, being down, it’s a big moral victory for us.” The Blackhawks agreed to a five-year contract extension with defenseman Brent Seabrook earlier in the day. The deal reportedly will pay $5.8 million annually to the 25-year-old, Chicago’s No. 2 defenseman behind Norris Trophy winner Duncan Keith. Toews scored twice in the first period as Chicago dominated the first 20 minutes. His shot from a sharp angle off the right wing boards slipped through several players and past Bryzgalov just 2:52 in to open the scoring.

CYCLING INSIDER | RIDER PROFILE

Snider Continued from D1 Driving to the ballpark that day, the tailpipe on his car fell off. He pulled over, picked it up, and promptly burned his hand. Worried that manager Walter Alston would bench him, he played that day with a batting glove covering the burned hand. Snider is also known for hitting four homers in two different World Series, including leading Brooklyn to its 1955 championship, yet he would openly scoff at those who would laud his simple ability to put a bat on a baseball. One of the more popular photos lining the walls of Dodger Stadium is a shot of Snider swinging, but every time he walked past the photo, Duke would flinch. “He would look at it, shake his head, and say, ‘That was a foul ball,’ ” Langill recalled. Growing up in Compton, near Los Angeles, Edwin Donald Snider was nicknamed “Duke” by his father because he strutted around as a child, but he acted like anything but royalty. When playing for Brooklyn from 1947 to 1957, he was considered only the third-best center fielder in New York behind Willie Mays and Mickey Mantle, yet he never complained. Coming to Los Angeles with the Dodgers in 1958, his lefthanded hitting stroke was handicapped by the distant right-field fence at the Coliseum, 440 feet from home plate, but he was never bitter. He should have been MVP in 1955, but lost in a close race with teammate Roy Campanella after a voter accidentally left Snider’s name off the ballot. Even when he was inducted into the Hall of Fame, it was a struggle, with voters electing him in his 11th season of eligibility. “Yet hanging around him, he always was the nicest, most unassuming of stars,” said Langill. “He was always truly just happy to be a Dodger.” When the Dodgers retired his number in Los Angeles in 1980, the guest of honor was more impressed with the honored guests. “Whenever we talked about that ceremony, all he could talk about was how Kareem Abdul-Jabbar asked for his autograph,” Langill said. “He was always amazed that people considered him something special.” In 1995, Snider pleaded guilty to federal tax charges for not claiming money from autograph shows, and was sentenced to two years’ probation and fined $5,000, but he kept coming to Dodger Stadium and never stopped supporting the franchise to which he felt eternally indebted. Snider’s Hall of Fame speech in 1980, which was barely nine minutes long, was more revealingly powerful than any Snider swing. He talked about how his wife, Beverly, loved Ted Williams. He introduced his family. He mentioned his high school coaches. He lauded his parents. He told stories about his teammates. He thanked the folks who drove down from Montreal, where Snider was a broadcaster. He pretty much talked about everyone but himself. “It’s a little tough even getting up here,” Snider said at the end of the speech. “I’d like to thank God for including me in his master plan ... being a Brooklyn Dodger and Los Angeles Dodger.” The baseball bond between the two cities is stretched even thinner today, one more link broken, one more landmark gone. The Dodgers will sorely miss the quietest Duke, the littlest prince, sometimes buried in history, but always second to none.

Local rider spotlight: James and Patty Cagney Ages: 54 and 59, respectively Hometown: Bend Occupation: James teaches computer courses; Patty advises nursing students at Central Oregon Community College Cycling preferences: Self-supported bicycle touring together on a recumbent tandem Cycling background: Patty bought James his first bicycle some 30 years ago, shortly after they were married, and he’s been an avid road cyclist ever since. James was a member of the Greater Eugene Area Riders club, and he is the founder and longtime organizer of a popular century ride in the Eugene area called the Blackberry Bramble. Patty did not begin riding until about 10 years ago, when she and James bought their first recumbent tandem bicycle. Before, she recalls, “I didn’t enjoy it, because I couldn’t keep up.” The Cagneys moved to Bend six years ago and both joined local road cycling clubs: James rides weekly with the Hot Sprockets, while Patty keeps pace with a group known as the Derailleur Divas. “A lot of the Sprockets’ wives are Divas,” she says. Finding the perfect ride: The Cagneys went searching for a tandem about 10 years ago, and they discovered that a recumbent-style ride offers a better view than a conventional tandem bike. “We happened to stumble upon a bicycle shop with a recumbent tandem,” Patty recalls. “When you’re riding a regular tandem, the person in the back is looking at the person in front’s bum all the time. We took it out for a test ride, and we were sold.” A few years later, when the Cagneys began long-distance touring with their bicycle, they traded in their standard-built model for a bike better suited to international traveling. Their current ride, made by Bike Friday, is a bicycle featuring wheels with a smaller diameter and a frame that can easily be taken apart and placed in airline-friendly suitcases. The Cagneys’ ride is eight feet long, with 20-inch wheels (similar to a child’s bike), and weighs 85 to 90 pounds. “It’s a tank,” says James. “It’s not fast.” “It’s like driving a semi,” Patty adds. Despite the weight of the bike,

Bend cyclists James Cagney, left, and Patty Cagney pose in 2006 with their tandem recumbent bicycle in front of a cathedral in Spain following a five-week, self-supported cycling tour across southern France and northern Spain. the Cagneys say its low center of gravity allows them to keep pedaling — and moving forward — even at walking speeds. “We’ve been up 19 percent grades, and we can go as slow as about four miles per hour,” says James. Curiosities when they roll through town: To be sure, a recumbent tandem is an unusuallooking bike, and one not commonly seen on the road. “It’s like being in a two-person parade,” James observes. “We’re always in the middle of nowhere, and you go through these little towns and they’ve never seen anything like it. “(Recumbent tandems) are pretty rare,” he adds. “And this is one that has little wheels on top of that, so it’s really a strange-looking thing coming through town.” Exploring the globe by bicycle: Every year since 2005, the Cagneys have embarked with their recumbent tandem on a self-supported cycling journey of at least a month’s duration. They pedal on average six hours a day and stay during their trek in hotels or hostels, or on farms. With room to carry only what can fit in one

pannier apiece, they pack lightly. The Cagneys have traversed southern and northern Italy, southern France and northern Spain, in addition to Germany, Switzerland, France and the Greek islands — all on separate cycling trips. This fall, they plan to journey across Sardinia and Corsica. Next spring, they are headed to Cuba. “There is a magical time warp that happens,” says Patty. “Remember when you were a little kid, you remember how long weekends were? Then you grew up and days go by so fast. When we’re gone for a month doing this, the days are so full, we meet so many people and there are so many unexpected surprises. It makes time so much longer … it’s just a magical experience.” —Heather Clark
