BLM: Geothermal plan is no reason to worry By Dylan J. Darling The Bulletin
In approving a geothermal experiment deep within the Newberry Volcano south of Bend, the Bureau of Land Management dismissed concerns about water quality and human-triggered earthquakes. “We wouldn’t have gone forward on this project if we didn’t feel comfortable,” said Steve Robertson, association manager of the BLM Prineville District Office. The BLM decision came earlier this month after reviews by groundwater and earthquake experts not associated
with the agency or the company planning the $42-million experiment. “We didn’t take the companies word for anything,” said Linda Christian, planning and environmental coordinator on the BLM energy team in Oregon. “It was verified.” While scientists with AltaRock Energy of Seattle will conduct the enhanced geothermal systems experiment at a well drilled into the Deschutes National Forest just outside the Newberry Volcanic National Monument, the BLM oversees underground exploration on federal land.

Bend scuffles to fill ADA advisory spots • Some committee members have quit, citing frustration By Nick Grube The Bulletin
It’s been two years since Bend City Manager Eric King established an advisory committee to improve accessibility for people with disabilities. Bend had struggled for years to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act, leading to lawsuits and, ultimately, agreements with advocacy groups and the federal government to improve accessibility. The city created the City of Bend Accessibility Advisory Committee in 2010 to help steer its accessibility efforts and
prevent further problems. Today, however, there are six vacancies on that ninemember committee, and the city is still searching for applicants. Some of the vacancies arose because members’ terms expired and they no longer had time to volunteer. Others, however, exist because members resigned in frustration. Of the 14 people who have served on the committee, six have quit. At least half have said they did so because they felt the committee was aimless or a form of “window dressing” used by the city to satisfy its critics. See ADA / A5
Jail’s space crunch • Deschutes Sheriff Blanton says moving inmates is necessary ... and unlikely to be temporary
By Michael Winerip New York Times News Service
PHILADELPHIA — At the end of his first year at the Community College of Philadelphia, Christopher Thomas decided that his goal — to go back to school and get a degree — was no longer worth it. He was in debt from thousands of dollars in student loans. After class, he rode a bus an hour and a half to a suburban restaurant where he worked as a waiter. When the shift ended at midnight, it took him three buses to get home. He couldn’t afford a computer, so in the middle of the night, he walked to his aunt’s house and used hers to finish his classwork. He got seven As and a C, but the plan was for eight. Thomas was 36, living in a spare bedroom at his grandmother’s house and doing much of his sleeping on the Route 124 bus. “I’m done,” he told friends. But he wasn’t. A woman in the college’s Institutional Advancement department, Patricia Conroy, kept sending emails about a $2,000 scholarship. “WHY DON’T YOU APPLY FOR THIS,” she wrote. He won one. Professors spoke about his promise. Friends said it would be a crime. “My dream of a 4.0 was gone,” he said. “I figured what it would take for a 3.9. If I aced out, I still might not make it, but a 3.89 was possible.” Actually, he finished with a 3.91. This fall he will enter the University of Pennsylvania. See College / A5

One week after he gave the order to start sending Deschutes County inmates to the Jefferson County jail, Deschutes County Sheriff Larry Blanton said he does not expect the arrangement to be temporary. On April 8, the sheriff signed off on a deal to send five female inmates to Jefferson County, the first time Deschutes County has ever entered into such an agreement. Blanton said the move was necessary — quarters for female inmates were at capacity, and there were no inmates he felt he could responsibly release. Jail overcrowding has been an ongoing is-

sue for Deschutes County, dating back nearly 10 years. For Blanton, it’s the problem that never seems to go away. “It’s like that movie ‘Groundhog Day,’” he said. “Just over and over and over again.” Blanton said he’s working with county commissioners to deal with overcrowding, but declined to elaborate on the ideas under consideration. He is not planning on asking for more money — Blanton said since voters rejected a $44 million jail expansion bond by a 2 to 1 margin in May 2010, he’s committed to operating within his available budget. Deschutes County is paying Jefferson County $76.36 a day to house each inmate,

though Jefferson County Sheriff Jim Adkins said he’d offer a more favorable rate if Deschutes County wants to make the arrangement permanent. Although the Deschutes County jail has 228 beds, that figure overstates the actual capacity, largely due to the need to segregate certain inmates. Men and women are separated, as are more dangerous and less dangerous inmates, and co-defendants in a single crime. Rarely will the inmate population on any given day perfectly fit the bed space available, Blanton said, meaning the jail can be effectively full at around 200 inmates. See Jail / A5

Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry’s defeat of a British fleet on Lake Erie during the War of 1812 is one of the triumphs that the U.S. Navy will commemorate this year.
WASHINGTON — Faced with little public understanding of its modern mission, the U.S. Navy is reaching back 200 years to the War of 1812 in the hopes of bolstering its standing with the American people. This week it launches an
ambitious, three-year commemoration to mark the bicentennial of the often overlooked war. Beginning Tuesday in New Orleans, and continuing through the summer in New York, Norfolk, Baltimore and Boston, tall ships and warships from around the world will parade through American ports.
But unlike previous commemorations, the Navy wants to reap lasting benefits from the War of 1812 and plans to immerse the public in a flood of information and events, including educational outreach, websites, social media, online games, books and museum displays. See Navy / A6

DISCOVERY
Finding insights beneath that famous Mona Lisa smile By Suzanne Daley New York Times News Service
MADRID — Until recently, the Prado’s copy of the Mona Lisa — one of dozens made over the centuries — was not much of a draw. Then, Ana Gonzalez Mozo took an interest. Over the past two years, Gonzalez, a researcher in the museum’s technical documentation department, has used all manner of modern-day techniques — X-rays, infrared reflectography and high-resolution digital images, among others — to make, and then document, an unlikely finding. It turns out that the Prado’s Mona Lisa is not just any 500year-old copy. It was most likely painted by someone who was sitting right next to Leonardo da Vinci, trying to duplicate his every brush stroke, as he produced his famous lady with the enigmatic smile. When Leonardo adjusted the size of the Mona Lisa’s head or corrected her hands or slimmed her bosom or lowered her bodice, so did whoever was painting the Prado’s Mona Lisa. “It had to be painted at the same time,” Gonzalez said. “Someone who copies doesn’t make corrections because they haven’t ever seen the changes. They can see only the surface of the painting.” The discovery is primarily important for what it reveals about the real Mona Lisa, a painting that has been darkened by layers of aging lacquer. The copy, now restored, offers details that are obscured in the original Mona Lisa. For instance, the copy shows an armrest where none can be seen in the original, and reflectographs show a much clearer image of her waistline. “What is really important about the copy is that we can see how Leonardo worked,” Gonzalez said. “We know something new about his creative process.” The copy, which also shows a much younger-looking figure, has once again ignited a debate about whether Leonardo’s Mona Lisa should be restored as well. Gonzalez says this is a hard call for the Louvre because people are so used to the way the painting looks now. But she cannot help being curious. Most of the time, Gonzalez spends her hours looking beneath the surface of the Prado’s masterpieces, searching for insights into the artists’ methods and thinking. And there, she said, she has found great treasures. Many important paintings have sketches or first tries — adjusted and reworked — under the final image. Sometimes, she said, the work underneath is even more fascinating than the painting itself. “I get to see what only the artist saw,” she said. “And he saw it five centuries ago.” Some art magazines have speculated that the Prado’s Mona Lisa was painted by Leonardo’s lover. But Gonzalez has no patience for such gossipy talk. “That is irrelevant,” she said. “We don’t know that. And that is not what the work here is about.” Until two years ago, the Prado, which inherited the painting with the rest of the royal collection in 1819, displayed it but never suspected its signifi-

Discoveries, breakthroughs, trends, names in the news — things you need to know to start your day.
Not just another fake Mona Lisa A researcher at the Prado in Spain has discovered that a copy of the Mona Lisa that belongs to the museum was painted by someone working next to Leonardo da Vinci while he created the original.

Infrared reflectography reveals drawing lines under the paint, invisible to the naked eye. Every adjustment that Leonardo made on his underlying drawing was repeated in the copy, indicating that the two pieces were painted in tandem. The dots show where adjustments were made in both paintings. The arrows point to adjustments made to the head by the two painters.
The copy’s restoration A layer of black paint covered the background of the copy of the Mona Lisa, left. The black layer was removed during a recent restoration, revealing a preserved background.

cance. It was catalogued without fanfare as an anonymous copy, painted on poplar. The copy’s background was black, and the painting was covered in a layer of dark varnish, which gave it a yellowish glow and further diminished its vibrancy. But the Louvre was planning a special exhibition of Leonardo’s work and, because it did not want to move the original Mona Lisa from its protected area, wanted to borrow the Prado painting as a stand-in. A casual comment by one of the Louvre curators, asking whether the painting had ever been studied, got Gonzalez thinking. The next day she took her infrared camera into the gallery and got to work. Just the first pictures were enough for her to conclude that the two paintings had been produced in tandem. After that, it was just a question of watching the evidence pile up. Perhaps the most exciting discovery was that the painting’s original background had
New York Times News Service
been obscured by a layer of black paint, a practice sometimes used in the 18th century. Luckily, a layer of lacquer protected what was under it. So, once the paint was removed, the same Tuscan background as in Leonardo’s painting appeared, offering a tantalizing preview of what might be seen if Leonardo’s Mona Lisa were restored. There is no doubt, however, that the Prado painting was not a copy made by Leonardo himself. While the corrections are identical, the lines are not. “Like I write an A and you write an A, you can tell it is not the same,” Gonzalez said. Parts of the Prado copy are beautiful, she said, like the hands. But in general, it is not nearly so fine a painting. Just why it was made remains an open question. It could have been simply for a pupil’s instruction or a double commission. Gonzalez seems somewhat indifferent to the attention her recent discovery is getting. She

said she had participated in far more spectacular discoveries. For instance, she said, X-rays and infrared reflectographs show that Tintoretto sketched nude figures under his clothed ones. But, somehow, it is the copy of the Mona Lisa that everyone is talking about. “It has grabbed people’s imagination,” she said. “She is an icon.” The Prado’s Mona Lisa is on loan to the Louvre until June.

Afghan-led forces beat back brazen attack by Taliban By Heidi Vogt and Rahim Faiez The Associated Press
KABUL, Afghanistan — A brazen, 18-hour Taliban attack on the Afghan capital ended early today when insurgents who had holed up overnight in two buildings were overcome by heavy gunfire from Afghanled forces and pre-dawn air assaults from U.S.-led coalition helicopters. Kabul residents awoke today to a second day of loud explosions and the crackle of gunfire. As darkness turned to dawn, Afghan-led forces fired one rocket-propelled grenade after another into a building
in the center of the city where insurgents began their attack Sunday. Fighting there and at the Afghan parliament building on the southwest side of the city ended just before 8 a.m. Authorities said one police officer and at least 17 militants were killed in the multipronged attacks in Kabul and three eastern cities. The violence showed the Taliban and their allies are far from beaten and underscored the security challenge facing government forces as U.S. and NATO forces draw down. The majority of international combat troops
are scheduled to leave by the end of 2014. The Taliban began their near-simultaneous assaults on embassies, government buildings and NATO bases at 1:30 p.m. Sunday, saying it was their response to NATO officials’ recent claims that the insurgency was weak. The U.S., German and British embassies and some coalition and Afghan government buildings took direct and indirect fire, according to Lt. Col. Jimmie Cummings, a spokesman for the U.S.-led coalition. Local residents near the parliament building said rocket-
propelled grenades and gunfire rocked their neighborhood through the night and into the morning. Afghan Interior Ministry spokesman Sediq Sediqi said militants took up position in a building under construction near parliament. Some lawmakers grabbed weapons and started fighting when militants fired on the parliament building on Sunday. Reporters for The Associated Press witnessed the morning assault on another building under construction near the presidential palace, western embassies and Afghan ministries.

TORNADOES
Early storm warnings saved lives, towns say By Sean Murphy The Associated Press
WOODWARD, Okla. — The television was tuned to forecasters’ dire warnings of an impending storm when Greg Tomlyanobich heard a short burst from a tornado siren blare after midnight Sunday. Then silence. Then rumbling. The 52-year-old quickly grabbed his wife and grandson, hurrying them into the emergency cellar as debris whirled around their heads at their mobile home park in northwest Oklahoma. They huddled inside with about 20 other people before the tornado — among dozens that swept across the nation’s midsection during the weekend — roared across the ground above, ripping homes from their foundations. “It scared the hell out of me,” Tomlyanobich said. The storm killed five people, including three children, and injured more than two dozen in Woodward, a town about 140 miles northwest of Oklahoma City. But it was the only tornado that caused fatalities. Many of the touchdowns raked harmlessly across isolated stretches of rural Kansas, and though communities there and in Iowa were hit, residents and officials credited days of urgent warnings from forecasters for saving lives. When Tomlyanobich emerged from the underground shelter after the storm subsided, he saw a scattered trail of destruction: home insulation, siding and splintered wood where homes once
stood; trees stripped of leaves, clothing and metal precariously hanging from limbs. “It just makes you sick to your stomach. Just look at that mangled steel,” he said Sunday, pointing to what appeared to be a giant twisted steel frame that had landed in the middle of the mobile home park, which is surrounded by rural land dotted with oil field equipment. The storms were part of an exceptionally strong system tracked by the National Weather Service’s Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Okla., which specializes in tornado forecasting. The center took the unusual step of warning people more than 24 hours in advance of a possible “high-end, life-threatening event.” Center spokesman Chris Vaccaro said the weather service received at least 120 reports of tornadoes by dawn Sunday and was working to confirm how many actually touched down. The storm system was weakening as it crawled east and additional tornadoes were unlikely, though forecasters warned that strong thunderstorms could be expected as far east as Michigan. Woodward suffered the worst of the destruction from the storms, which also struck in Kansas, Iowa and Nebraska. Woodward City Manager Alan Riffel said 89 homes and 13 businesses were destroyed, and bloodied survivors in the 12,000-resident town emerged to find flipped cars and smashed trailers.
Obama: U.S. has offered no ‘freebies’ to Iran By Julie Pace The Associated Press
CARTAGENA, Colombia — Exposing a rift with Israel, President Barack Obama on Sunday insisted that the United States has not “given anything away” in new talks with Iran as he defended his continued push for a diplomatic resolution to the dispute over Tehran’s nuclear ambitions. Obama said he refused to let the talks turn into a “stalling process,” but believed there was still time for diplomacy. His assessment, delivered at the close of a Latin American summit in Colombia, came after Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Sunday had said the U.S. and world powers gave Tehran a “freebie” by agreeing to hold more talks next month. Obama shot back: “The notion that somehow we’ve given something away or a ‘freebie’ would indicate Iran has gotten something. In fact, they’ve got some of the toughest sanctions that they’re going to be facing coming up in just a few months if they don’t take advantage of these talks.” Still, in a news conference here, Obama warned to Iran, “The clock’s ticking.” Winding down his three-day trip in the port city of Cartagena, Obama also sought to offer hope for fresh start with Cuba, saying the U.S. would welcome the communist-run island’s transition to democracy. There could be an opportunity for such a shift in the coming years, Obama said. Standing alongside Colombian President Juan Manuel Santos, Obama also proclaimed a free-trade agreement between their countries as a win all-around, even as labor leaders back home denounced it. Obama announced
that the trade pact can be fully enforced next month, now that Colombia has enacted a series of protections for workers and labor unions. Obama had hoped to keep his role in the Summit of the Americas focused on the economy and the prospect of the region’s rapid economic rise as a growth opportunity for American businesses.
Pakistani Taliban free nearly 400 from prison By Ismail Khan and Declan Walsh New York Times News Service
PESHAWAR, Pakistan — In what is being called the biggest jail-break in Pakistani history, Taliban fighters stormed a prison in the northwestern town of Bannu early Sunday, freeing almost 400 prisoners, including Adnan Rashid, a junior air force officer who had been sentenced to death for his part in a 2003 assassination attempt on then-president Pervez Musharraf. The assault started at 1:30 a.m. Sunday when at least 100 militants driving pickup trucks and armed with grenades and small arms attacked the main gate of the prison, which housed 900 inmates, provincial government officials said. After blasting their way into the prison, the attackers broke open cell doors and set free 384 inmates, including several others who had been condemned to death, said the home minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, Mohammad Azam Khan. A senior security official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said prison guards had offered little resistance to the Taliban, who were in “total control” of the facility for over two hours. “We have released our men without losing a single man,” said Ihsanullah Ihsan, a spokesman for the Pakistani Taliban, speaking from an undisclosed location. “We had been planning this blessed operation for months.” The authorities arrested 11 prisoners by evening. Another 20 voluntarily returned to the prison, Khan said. But the most likely destination for many of the fugitives was North Waziristan, a lawless tribal area adjoining Bannu that is rife with militants from al-Qaida, the Haqqani Taliban network and other militant groups, many operating on both sides of the Afghan-Pakistani border. North Waziristan has born the brunt of the CIA’s drone strike campaign, which the Pakistani parliament last week demanded should end immediately.
President speaks on Secret Service inquiry By Michael S. Schmidt New York Times News Service
WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama commented for the first time Sunday about the Secret Service employees accused of soliciting prostitutes before a summit in Cartagena, Colombia, saying he expected a high standard of conduct from his security team and adding that he would be “angry” if the accusations were proved true. “What happened here in Colombia is being investigated by the director of the Secret Service,” Obama said in response to a question at a news conference wrapping up the Summit of the Americas in Cartagena. “I expect that investigation to be thorough and to be rigorous. If it turns out that some of the allegations made in the press are confirmed, then of course I’ll be angry.” He added, “We’re representing the people of the United States when we travel out of the country.” It was Obama’s first public statement since the Secret Service said Friday that it was investigating suspicions that 11 of its employees had taken part in misconduct that involved prostitutes in a Cartagena hotel last week. Those employees were immediately replaced and later put on administrative leave. Five U.S. military service members working with the Secret Service and staying in the same hotel are also facing an investigation because they violated a curfew and may have participated in the misconduct. According to a senior U.S. official, some of the personnel members sent back to the United States could be interviewed again as early as today. The official said he and other senior officials were baffled and angry that two supervisors were involved in the incident and did nothing to prevent it. “It’s just extremely poor leadership by them,” the official said.

Truce eroding as first monitors arrive By Karin Laub The Associated Press
BEIRUT — Syria’s fourday-old cease-fire appeared to be quickly eroding Sunday, with regime forces firing dozens of tank shells and mortar rounds at neighborhoods in the opposition stronghold of Homs, hours before the arrival of a first team of U.N. truce monitors. Even though the overall level of violence has dropped,
escalating regime attacks over the weekend raised new doubts about President Bashar Assad’s commitment to a plan by special envoy Kofi Annan to end 13 months of violence and launch talks on Syria’s political future. Assad accepted the truce deal at the prodding of his main ally, Russia, but his compliance has been limited. He has halted shelling of rebelheld neighborhoods, with the
exception of Homs, but ignored calls to pull troops out of urban centers, apparently for fear of losing control over a country his family has ruled for four decades. Rebel fighters have also kept up attacks, including shooting ambushes. The international community hopes U.N. observers will be able to stabilize the ceasefire, which formally took effect Thursday. A six-member advance team of U.N. observ-
ers headed to Damascus on Sunday, a day after an unanimous U.N. Security Council approved such a mission. A larger team of 250 observers requires more negotiations between the U.N. and the Syrian government next week. U.N. Secretary-General Bank Ki-moon expressed serious concern at the Syrian government’s shelling of Homs and said “the whole world is watching with skeptical eyes”
whether the cease-fire can be sustained. “It is important — absolutely important — that the Syrian government shold take all the measures to keep this cessation of violence,” he told reporters in Brussels after meeting Belgian Prime Minister Elio Di Rupo on Sunday. “I urge again in the strongest possible terms that this cessation of violence must be kept.”

Congressional Republicans turn focus to gas prices By Paul Kane The Washington Post
WASHINGTON — Free of the GOP presidential primaries that frequently forced their agenda onto the sidelines in favor of social issues, congressional Republicans return to Washington today refocusing on bread-and-butter matters, particularly high gasoline prices. Returning from a two-week break today, House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, wants the spring legislative session to focus on several bills to allow more domestic energy exploration, believing that the issue has become an Achilles’ heel for President Barack Obama. Senate Democrats, meanwhile, are forcing a vote today on the so-called Buffett rule, in which those earning more than $1 million a year would be required to pay a minimum tax of 30 percent even on the sort of investment income that billionaires such as Warren Buffett use to reap most of their money. For Democrats, this is part of their effort to campaign on a message of economic fairness, suggesting that Republicans hide behind deregulating oil drilling and natural gas exploration as a paean to multibillion-dollar energy companies. But Republicans counter that the issue of high gas costs connects more viscerally with voters in tough economic times. Starting this week, the House GOP will try to push a temporary highway funding bill that includes mandatory approval of construction of the Keystone energy pipeline,
setting up a negotiation showdown with the Senate. In addition, committees are moving bills that would freeze regulations on refineries and also forbid Obama from releasing oil from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to keep costs down, a move that Republicans say would only be done for political expediency as the November election draws near. “Gas prices have doubled on President Obama’s watch, and the American people are asking why he and Senate Democrats are blocking more American energy production,” Boehner said in a statement. “Whether the president joins us or not, we will continue to fight for common-sense solutions that lower gas prices and create new jobs.” Republicans believe that the winter surge in energy costs — the average price of a gallon of gas jumped nearly 70 cents, to about $3.90, from late December to mid-April — provides them with a political opening to go on the offensive against Obama. Perhaps sensitive to the criticism, the White House announced Friday that it was forming a working group with representatives from a dozen agencies to coordinate oversight of drilling, with an emphasis on natural gas exploration and its controversial technique known as “fracking.” Republicans have argued that it is a cheap, readily available technique to get more energy sources here at home. They dismiss the working group as just another study that would not deal with the immediate energy needs.
Tumult in Egypt after candidates barred from race By David D. Kirkpatrick New York Times News Service
CAIRO — Candidates in Egypt’s presidential race scrambled Sunday to find their footing in an increasingly slippery field as new questions emerged about whether Hosni Mubarak’s former spy chief would be allowed to compete. A day after the presidential election commission knocked out of the race three of the five front-runners on various technical grounds — with just over a month until the voting begins — on Sunday it clarified that it had disqualified the former intelligence chief, Omar Suleiman, because he had fallen just 31 short of the 30,000 notarized statements of endorsements required to enter the race. It was unclear whether his campaign would be allowed to make up the difference. The suspense about Suleiman’s eligibility added a combustible new element to the doubts about the credibility of the electoral process that were sown by the electoral commission’s sweeping decision Saturday night to strike him from the race along with two leading Islamists, Khayrat elShater, the leading strategist of the Muslim Brotherhood, and Hazem Salah Abu Ismail, the standard-bearer for ultra-
conservative Islamists. In a race dominated by Islamists on one side and the more secular former officials of the Mubarak government on the other, Saturday’s announcement had appeared at least evenhanded by tossing out the most polarizing contenders in both camps. But the potential return of Suleiman, 75, upends that balance. Instead, it returns the Islamist movements to the state of high anxiety set off by his last-minute entry into the race just one week ago. He was virtually Mubarak’s alter ego, frank about his view that Egypt was not ready for democracy, and outspokenly hostile to the Islamists now dominating Parliament and competing for the presidency. Suleiman stands more clearly for a restoration of the old order than any other former Mubarak government official now re-entering politics. And he has deep ties to the intelligence services — his campaign manager is his former chief of staff in the spy service and has begun running the campaign from its headquarters — raising fears that its officials might revive Mubarak-era practices like bugging candidates’ offices and rigging elections.

Employees work at the Marutaka casting factory in Higashiosaka, Japan. Many Japanese officials and business leaders fear that the gradual economic decline in Japan has accelerated after last year’s nuclear accident in Fukushima.
Amid decline, Japan weighs a reinvention By Martin Fackler New York Times News Service
AMAGASAKI, Japan — A few years ago, the densely built-up coastal region around this port was called Panel Bay because of its concentration of factories making the sophisticated flat-panel screens that were symbols of Japan’s manufacturing prowess. But now the area has become a grim symbol of its industrial decline. In recent months, many of those plants have been closed or partially sold off, as the once seemingly invincible electronics industry has lost out to Chinese and South Korean challengers. Panasonic alone shut down two of its three factories here in March while Sharp, desperate to cover losses from its $10 billion flat-panel plant in nearby Sakai, accepted a bailout from a Taiwanese technology company — a stunning reversal in a nation that once prided itself on being Asia’s economic leader. The demise of Panel Bay is the latest sign of what many Japanese fear is the hollowing out of their heavily industrialized economy, which has been in a gradual but relentless decline since the bursting of its twin real estate and stock bubbles in the early 1990s. The decline is largely a result of growing competition from Asian rivals, an aging workforce and merciless gains by the yen. But many officials and business leaders now fear that this trend has accelerated since last year’s nuclear acci-
dent in Fukushima, which has raised the prospect of higher energy prices and even power failures. “We already had a sense of crisis about the loss of manufacturing and manufacturing jobs,” said Tetsuya Tanaka, a director of manufacturing promotion at the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, or METI. “Now we are afraid the concerns about electricity could give manufacturers the excuse they need to move offshore.” The increased price pressures have wounded many of Japan’s corporate giants. Last week, Sony — the Apple-like innovator of the 1980s — forecast a $6.4 billion loss amid reports it may cut 10,000 workers, a drastic step in a nation where layoffs are still seen as socially unacceptable. Even Japanese carmakers like Toyota, which last year handed back the title of world’s largest auto company to General Motors after supply disruptions from the tsunami, fear that they are becoming vulnerable to game-changing competition in electric cars or just lowercost producers in South Korea and elsewhere. The reversals have gripped Japan with a sense of national angst over its future, though economists are divided over how much the nation will actually deindustrialize — and whether a shift away from factories is really such a bad thing. Most economists agree that Japan, which rose to economic superpower status in

the 1980s by building compact sedans and color televisions, has outgrown the “Asian Miracle” template and needs a new economic strategy. What that approach should be, though, is the subject of intense and growing debate. “It is time for Japan to find a new model for its economy,” said Masatomo Onishi, a professor of business at Kansai University. “We can follow the United States into a more postindustrial economy, or we can follow Germany into high-end manufacturing, but we shouldn’t be trying to compete with China in mass production.”

The senior government executive at the center of the General Services Administration spending scandal told investigators that he believed it was okay not to get bids from competitors because he was paying for quality. He also didn’t get legal advice in writing on a contract for the Las Vegas conference that has become Washington’s latest symbol of waste because it would slow down business and be “discoverable” in lawsuits, according to transcripts of interviews conducted by the agency’s inspector general and reviewed by The Washington Post. And the official, Jeffrey Neely, told investigators that a private party he threw in his Las Vegas hotel suite for $2,717 was an employee-awards event. Neely’s conduct as the host of a four-day teambuilding event that cost $823,000 will be under scrutiny on Capitol Hill starting today, when the first of four back-to-back congressional hearings is scheduled. Neely, a career civil servant who organized the four-day “Western Regions” conference, emerges in the transcripts as a competitive, innovative manager in a federal agency that prides itself on a privatesector sensibility. But critics have said that Neely and his deputies went too far and made questionable expenditures of taxpayer dollars. The transcripts provide evidence of a freewheeling spending culture in the offices of the four Pacific Rim states where he oversaw federal real estate and government purchasing. “What this guy did was try to use private business practices to justify spending that is out of line with the private sector,” said Sen. Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., one of numerous lawmakers asking how things spun out of control with no oversight from Washington.
College Continued from A1 Increasingly, the students here are making that jump. Dawn-Stacy Joyner, a former hospital cook, will also attend the University of Pennsylvania. Nine women graduating this spring have been accepted to Bryn Mawr. Larry Thi, who hopes to become a teacher, transferred to the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. “There’s been a major acceleration the last few years,” said Rod Risley, executive director of Phi Theta Kappa, the community college honor society. It’s partly the economic collapse. The Community College of Philadelphia costs $4,400 a year for city residents; the most expensive private colleges are $60,000. Getting an associate degree first can save $100,000. “These students are choosing community colleges with the intention that this is their path to selective institutions,” Risley said. He had no trouble providing names. Casey Maliszewski went from Raritan Valley
Community College in New Jersey to Mount Holyoke, and she is now a graduate student at Columbia. Tamer Shabani also went to Raritan and is at Stanford. Mark Svensson transferred from Rockland Community College to Georgetown. Indeed, one of my own sons graduated from our local community college and in January entered New York University as a junior. For elite schools, community colleges offer racial and economic diversity; the college here is 55 percent black. “Colleges are looking for high completion levels, and the best community college students complete,” Risley said. Since 2005, the Jack Kent Cooke Foundation has given 400 scholarships of up to $30,000 a year to outstanding community college students to continue their studies. Those students have gone on to average a 3.5 GPA and a 90 percent completion rate, according to Emily Froimson, a spokeswoman. The foundation also gives up to $1 million to four-year insti-
tutions to recruit community college graduates. Among the colleges and universities that have been chosen are the University of Michigan; Cornell; Amherst; the University of California, Berkeley; the University of North Carolina; and Bryn Mawr. Most of the nine women here who have been accepted by Bryn Mawr have had their struggles. Taj Meyer had an eating disorder and did not make it through high school. Neither did Adrienne Baugher, who battled addiction. Remi Demarest left home as a girl and was raised by an aunt and uncle. Meg Booth is a single mother. They range in age from Mary Chessen, 21, who transferred from the Art Institute of Chicago, to Kimberly Stuart, who is 38 and was working as a film grip when she started here in 2007. Lija Geller flunked out of Temple and was embarrassed to be going here. “I’d get off the subway at Spring Garden,” she said. “The Temple kids stay on to the Cecil B. Moore stop. It felt like they knew I went to
community college.” Booth and Baugher have supported themselves by working as waitresses; Geller spent a year and a half as a dog walker; Demarest was a receptionist at a nail salon. “I wanted a second chance,” she said, “which is what a community college gives you.” Bryn Mawr had not occurred to them. “Not even in my realm of thought,” said Baugher, who will major in biology. In the two decades after graduating from Central High School in Philadelphia, Thomas worked a series of clerical and administrative jobs. Starting college at 36, he was hungry for knowledge. He was always a big reader — Shakespeare, John Steinbeck, Richard N. Wright, Ralph W. Ellison. But not until he took an African-American studies course did he understand how little he knew of Frederick Douglass, Booker T. Washington and James Weldon Johnson. “I was ashamed when I realized,” he said. People have told him that majoring in education would be a waste of an Ivy League
degree, but his goal is to return to Central High and teach American history. It was his developmental psychology professor, Vince Castronuovo, who first put the idea of the University of Pennsylvania in his head. “He told me, ‘It’s the place for a guy like you.’” Thomas was in one of the college’s computer centers on March 27 when he got the email saying he was accepted. He has been chosen to deliver a speech at his graduation next month, and he recently finished a first draft. A lot of it will be about what determination and the right support can do for a person. For weeks, he has been looking for a part-time job, even for minimum wage. Last week he interviewed at an ice cream shop, but he has not heard anything yet. He still doesn’t own a computer, but he thinks he’ll be getting one for graduation. It’s supposed to be a surprise, but his aunt let it slip that she didn’t know how anyone could make it through college without one.
Jail Continued from A1 In the current configuration, the jail has 188 beds reserved for male inmates and 40 beds reserved for females. Aside from a few single- and double-occupancy cells, the beds are primarily in dormitory-style units, each one housing eight to 20 inmates. While jail staff can switch a dorm from male to female or female to male occupancy — and has on multiple occasions over the past four years — doing so forces the jail to change schedules for inmate visitations, recreation and other programs. Though some of the dorms have the physical space to add more of the twofoot-wide bunkbeds, Blanton said state regulations prohibit packing the inmates too tightly, and the number of inmates in each dorm is already a potential threat to the physical safety of the jail staff. “If they really want to cause trouble, there’s more of them than there are of us,” he said. A handful of additional single-occupancy cells would make operating the jail far easier, Blanton said, recalling an incident earlier this month when the jail had three people on suicide watch but only one isolation cell where they could be closely monitored. Instead, the suicidal inmates were placed in the cells where incoming inmates are held during booking, he said, creating a potential logjam had new inmates been brought to the jail at the time. The lack of single-occupancy cells creates additional problems when inmates become ill. In the past three years, Blanton said two flu outbreaks and one norovirus outbreak spread through the inmate population and jail staff because of a lack of places to quarantine the first cases. Crowding has also changed the role of the work center, a slightly lower-security facility adjacent to the jail for inmates who work on highway cleanup crews and other off-site
ADA Continued from A1 Though this view is not universally held, a number of recent resignations, combined with the virtual absence of would-be committee members, highlights the city’s awkward relationship with the ADA and accessibility advocates. “The reason I decided to resign is that I was not entirely clear on what our purpose was and what our role was going to be,” said Paul Eckman, a retired neurologist. “I spent two years going to meetings, and I didn’t see what I was accomplishing or how I was participating in a meaningful way.” Eckman, who is married to Bend City Councilor Kathie Eckman, said he felt the committee did little more than talk without taking action. Its only tangible accomplishment, he said, was to help prioritize which curb ramps should be built first as part of the city’s settlement agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice. “My concern was that it was never defined why we were meeting or what we were go-

Female Deschutes County jail inmates lie on beds in the jail last week. In its current configuration, the jail has 188 beds reserved for male inmates and 40 beds reserved for females.
jobs. Starting two years ago, the jail began moving inmates with felony convictions who are not eligible for work crew duty to the work center. At the jail Thursday, deputies pored over the records of two women arrested that afternoon to decide if either of them should be given the one open bed in the female dorms. Down the hall, around a dozen inmates were waiting to be arraigned over a video link to the courthouse in downtown Bend. Blanton said with luck, the judge would approve releasing some of them, opening up space for whoever would
be arrested later in the day. Blanton said he’s heard plenty of suggestions from the public on how to reduce crowding, but most are not reflective of how the jail operates. For the past six years, deputies and local police agencies have been advised to write citations rather than arrest suspects whenever possible. Drivers arrested for DUII are almost always released to a responsible adult, he said, while those who end up staying the night at the jail are kept in booking. Those arrested for drug possession are only kept
at the jail if there’s reason to believe they’re a flight risk, or if the drug charge is a violation of a parole or probation agreement from a more serious conviction. Individuals charged with a crime seldom languish in jail for want of bail money, Blanton said. “You know, you go to jail, you get the one phone call? If we think you can raise bail money, we’re gonna let you have the phone for a while,” he said. Adkins said he’s happy to be doing business with Deschutes County. As of Thursday, the 160-bed Jefferson County Jail had just 62 inmates, including the five from Deschutes County and 16 from Crook County, which has housed inmates at the Jefferson County Jail for several years. Adkins said when Jefferson
ing to do or what was the end point,” Eckman said. “It’s like me as a doctor going in to see a patient and the patient wasn’t telling me what the symptoms are. How am I supposed to guess what to do?” King said this was no accident. He wanted the volunteers to tell city officials what they wanted to see Bend accomplish rather than having the city “dictate” what the future of accessibility looked like. He also said changes in city staff and at the committee level have stalled any momentum the panel might have generated. “We have a new group that’s been put in place, and it takes awhile for that group to get its legs,” King said. The committee has since created a plan that will focus on making Bend’s sidewalks accessible, teaching business owners about ADA issues and implementing universal design principles that make buildings accessible to all people. King said the city has recently allocated about $100,000 to building new sidewalks over the next year or so. That’s enough money to build about
3,000 linear feet of sidewalk. “Their job is to help push the city in getting those things done,” King said of COBAAC. “They’ve sort of set the course, so now it’s their job to help make sure that we’re meeting those goals.” Still, some feel the city doesn’t take accessibility or the ADA seriously even though it has agreed, under legal pressure, to make millions of dollars’ worth of improvements to transit, government buildings, curb ramps and sidewalks. Contributing to that frustration is the city’s reduction of its accessibility department from six employees to a single part-time worker, who splits his time between Bend and Redmond. “My recent experiences trying to communicate with City management have made me realize that there is a pattern of disregard when it comes to ADA issues,” former COBAAC committee member Alice Lindley wrote in her March 8 resignation letter. “I am under the impression that the City management and Council members do not take ADA advocates se-
riously or even treat them with the same respect as they do other citizens.” Nancy Stevens resigned from COBAAC in 2011 for similar reasons, although she’s now considering another stint. Stevens, who is blind, said she hasn’t had good experiences with the city. For instance, she says she has struggled unsuccessfully to persuade the city to install a crosswalk at an intersection near her home. “I didn’t ever feel like they really wanted our input on the issues,” Stevens said. “People want to be valued. And I hate it when I volunteer for something and they don’t have anything for me to do.” Bend Accessibility Manager Mike Viegas said he understands why some committee members have been “antsy” about being stuck in conceptual discussions that don’t lead to any “brick and mortar” improvements in accessibility. Like King, Viegas said he hopes the upcoming sidewalk project shows those members that they’re making meaningful progress and not just seeing their ideas discarded.
“You know, you go to jail, you get the one phone call? If we think you can raise bail money, we’re gonna let you have the phone for a while.” — Deschutes County Sheriff Larry Blanton
County built its jail in 2000, it deliberately built a facility large enough to accommodate 50 years of projected population growth. Renting bed space to neighboring counties was part of the plan from the beginning, Adkins said, and it’s helped to keep costs down — Jefferson County residents pay a levy of 99 cents per $1,000 in assessed property value to operate their jail, though the cost would be approximately 40 cents higher if not for the income from housing inmates from outside the county. “I’ll house as many people as I can contract out because I’m trying to do the best for my voters up here and keep that levy price down,” Adkins said. “The more beds I contract out, the better off I am at this point.”
“What it does is allows us to harness the good energy and the decisions they’ve made to move forward,” Viegas said. “If you’ve got good conceptual ideas and you can’t do anything with them, then groups can tend to get a little bit disillusioned. And not just this group, but any group.” King admits there’s still a gap between city administration and the accessibility community over ADA issues. A lack of funding won’t narrow that divide, he said, but a proven shift in culture might. “The goal is to get beyond the settlement agreements and get to an environment where (accessibility) is fully understood and embraced by the organization,” King said. “Yes, it’s been a struggle, and I know there’s been frustration on both sides. … But it’s not something that happens overnight. It’s a process to infuse that throughout the whole organization. I don’t want to paint the picture that we’re there, and everything’s great, but I think we’ve made progress.”

Geothermal Continued from A1 Now that it has approval from the agency, AltaRock Energy plans to pour millions of gallons of water down a 10,600-foot well in October and November in hopes of creating a potential geothermal power source, said Susan Petty, AltaRock’s president and founder. “We are really excited to get going,” she said. Before the injections of water start, AltaRock will drill an array of 700-foot holes near the well, where Petty said it will place seismometers that will relay real-time data to a website. The drilling should start later this month. Like the BLM, Petty said there is no reason to worry about what the two-year experiment will do to groundwater or whether it will cause measurable earthquakes.
What’s in the water Among the critics of the plan, Stuart Garrett, a retired physician from Bend, said he is worried about what would happen if tracer chemicals ended up in groundwater. “They really didn’t answer the questions that I asked,” he said. He said he wonders if the chemicals could cause cancer, birth defects or other health problems. Along with saying the chemicals won’t cause such issues, Petty said steel and cement casing 60 percent of the way down will keep chemicalladen water out of the aquifer. “There is just no way they’ll get into the groundwater,” she said. The chemicals are fluorescent and glow when exposed to special LED lights, and AltaRock plans to use them to measure how large the fractures are growing underground. The company plans to mix about 50 gallons of the chemicals with 24 million gallons of water in the first injection. Echoing Petty, Christian said the aquifer where the experiment is planned is about 800 feet underground, while the casing stretches down to 6,500 feet. “So there is about a mile of very dense rock between the aquifer and where the stimulation will occur,” she said. An independent inspector will monitor AltaRock’s use of the chemicals, Christian said. “These chemicals are going to be under a lot of scrutiny,” she said. The company also plans to send down salt grain-sized pieces of plastic to temporarily fill in cracks caused by one injection so the next injection will break rock deeper down in the well. AltaRock will put about 125 pounds of plastics down the well per week during injections, according to company documents. Christian said the plastic is similar to what is used to make biodegradable coffee cups and
Enhanced geothermal systems project AltaRock Energy plans to pump millions of gallons of water into the earth in October and early November to open fractures deep below Newberry Volcano. It will then test how well passing water through the cracked rock heats the water as a potential source for geothermal power production.

will dissolve when exposed to hot water.
Signs of shaking The water injections and underground cracking of rock in the AltaRock experiment will cause seismic activity, but the BLM and the company assure that it will be slight, and not enough for people living in La Pine or elsewhere nearby to feel. “The studies we’ve done show that it is highly unlikely that anyone would feel anything, and if they do, it is even more unlikely that it would cause any harm,” Petty said. For an earthquake to be felt in La Pine, west of the experiment site, she estimated it would have to be a magnitude 4. “There is only a one percent chance that it will be felt anywhere,” Christian said. AltaRock plans to use the minor underground shaking to help map where its underground reservoir for warming water spreads. The company plans to have a network of tiny fractures spreading out 1,500 feet from the well for its bottom 400 feet. There are plans to stop the injections if the seismic activity becomes too strong, and the Department of Energy, which is covering half the experiments’ costs, will be keeping a close watch on the possibility of earthquakes. While there are six other sites around the country where there are enhanced geothermal systems experiments, and there are projects in Europe and Australia, companies in the geothermal industry are leery after
what happened in Basel, Switzerland, about a half decade ago, said Karl Gawell, executive director of the Geothermal Energy Association. There, an enhanced geothermal systems project triggered earthquakes strong enough to damage the city. Since then, Gawell said, governments and companies involved with enhanced geothermal systems have developed guidelines to avoid triggering a damage-causing quake. “The last thing you want to have happen is have any of those problems occur,” he said. AltaRock has studied the Basel earthquake closely and will avoid such a situation, said Trenton Cladouhous, research and development manager for AltaRock. Also, the company’s experiment is going to be in a national forest and not in a city, as was the Basel experiment. “The big difference is there is not a 14th-century city over our project,” Cladouhous said Earthquakes or not, geothermal companies from around the world will be watching AltaRock’s experiment, Gawell said. So far geothermal power projects have focused mainly on places where there is natural geothermal power potential, where hot water is found underground. Enhanced geothermal systems could change that. “The hope is you will be able to develop a technology that allows you to extract the heat of the earth anywhere,” Gawell said.

Navy Continued from A1 Polling for the Navy by Gallup has shown that less than 9 percent of Americans understand its mission. Equally worrisome, the public ranks the Navy ahead of only the Coast Guard in its importance to national defense, and well behind the Army, Marines and Air Force. The results have raised alarms within the Navy at a time when the military services face daunting budget cuts. Although it may seem odd to turn to the Age of Sail to prove the Navy’s modern relevance, senior Navy officials argue that a war fought with a few wooden frigates under the flag of “Free Trade and Sailors Rights” directly relates to the mission of the Navy today, including keeping choke points such as the Strait of Hormuz open against threats from Iran and battling piracy off Somalia’s coast. “We’re doing about the exact same things today that we were doing 200 years ago — protecting freedom of the seas,” Navy Secretary Ray Mabus said after a recent bicentennial reception in Washington. The Navy has long claimed the War of 1812 as its coming of age and one of its most glorious episodes, from the USS Constitution’s smashing single-ship victories to Commodore Oliver Hazard Perry’s
defeat of a British fleet on Lake Erie. By war’s end, the fledgling Navy was left with a host of heroes and some of its most enduring slogans, among them “Don’t Give Up the Ship.” Most importantly, perhaps, a grateful Congress authorized a steady stream of funding to build a permanent and powerful fleet. This is a lesson the Navy would like to see emulated. The Navy is battling what Mabus called the “misperception” that it has not been deeply involved in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, where the Army and the Marine Corps have borne the brunt of the fighting. Only 11 percent of respondents in 2011 named the Navy as the military service most important for national defense, compared with 25 percent for the Army, 24 percent for the Marines and 17 percent for the Air Force. In 2002, before the start of the Iraq war, the Navy stood at 17 percent, roughly equal to the Army and Marines. The Marine Corps, though a component of the Navy, is a separate branch of the military. Although the Navy basked in the glory of the SEAL raid that killed Osama bin Laden last year, the role of its ships and sailors in the region is often overlooked, Mabus said. “The poll data showed the American people don’t under-
stand why we need a navy,” said Michael Crawford, senior historian for the Naval History and Heritage Command. “The leadership of the Navy has decided this is an opportunity not to be missed to explain to American people what the Navy is.” The Navy has spent $12 million over five years preparing for the bicentennial. Officials did not estimate how much the Navy will spend during the celebration, but said it will “minimize costs” because much of the commemoration has been built atop existing events, including annual “Fleet Week” visits to various cities, Blue Angel shows and training exercises. “We don’t say, ‘200th commemoration at all costs,’” Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Jonathan Greenert said. The bicentennial will serve as an experiment in how the Navy tells its story. “We don’t want to just show up and have a party and everyone goes away and forgets why the Navy was there,” Crawford said. The Navy has filled a vacuum to bring a national sweep to what otherwise would be a series of local and regional events. “The Navy has taken this under its wing,” said Sen. Benjamin Cardin, D-Md., whose legislation to create a national War of 1812 bicentennial commission was blocked by Sen. Tom Coburn, R-Okla.

LILY RAFF MCCAULOU
Hunting lends new perspective
N
ot quite two weeks ago, I sat in the back of my station wagon at sunrise, held a battery-powered breast pump to my chest and watched as a New York City-based writer tiptoed through the sagebrush with a shotgun as she followed fresh rabbit tracks in the snow. It wasn’t exactly how I’d pictured my return from maternity leave. The writer, Molly Young, had flown to Bend to go rabbit hunting with me and then write about it for Elle magazine. Perhaps the only thing stranger than Elle covering hunting is the fact that I, of all people, had been asked to help teach this woman how to hunt. See, I’ve written a book — which comes out this summer — detailing my transformation from animal-loving city gal into unlikely huntress. Two years after I moved to Central Oregon from New York City, I suddenly decided to pull on camouflage and pick up a gun. My reasons were complicated. The short explanation is that I wanted to better understand the traditions of the rural communities I was writing about. I also wanted to learn more about where my food comes from and how humans fit into the ecosystem. That was about five years ago, which in hunting terms makes me a neophyte. Until two weeks ago, I’d done very little rabbit hunting — none in Central Oregon. Yet Molly was on a tight deadline, and the time of year didn’t leave us many options. Rabbits are just one of a few species that may be hunted year-round here. They also happen to be tasty. Hunting is something that you can’t learn on YouTube or in a book. You have to get out there, preferably under someone’s wing. For people like Molly and me, who grew up in cities with parents who don’t hunt, mentors can be hard to come by. Some of the people who have taught me the most about hunting were strangers generous enough to share their hard-earned knowledge. So I was eager to return the favor by passing along whatever I could to Molly. I was also curious to see if I know enough to teach someone else how to hunt. If the outcome was any indication, I don’t: Neither of us shot a rabbit. It was an all-too-appropriate introduction for Molly. As any hunter knows, coming home empty-handed is a big part of the sport. Luckily, we found more than our share of consolation prizes. One of my favorite things about hunting is how it forces me to look anew at even the most familiar landscapes. Where I once saw a sterile, gray swath of Bureau of Land Management desert, I now see unmistakable signs that the land throbs with life. We saw holes that are surely the front doors to porcupine dens. We noticed owl pellets in the sand, with clean white rodent bones protruding from the gray fluff. A few minutes later, the owl that had likely scattered those pellets swooped overhead. We followed coyote and antelope tracks and watched chipmunks scurry across the ground. We found a mule deer antler under one juniper tree and half of a dead kangaroo mouse under another. We saw quite a few cottontails darting through the bitterbrush, too, though we never got a shot off in time to bring one home for supper. Of course, the long hours spent hiking at dawn and dusk meant a big, sudden adjustment for my newborn son — and my husband caring for him — at home (although my days in the office last week felt short and easy by comparison). For me, it’s hard to imagine a more pleasant way to emerge from three months spent mostly indoors. It reminded me, yet again, of how lucky I am to live in the High Desert — and get to write about it. It’s good to be back. — Lily Raff McCaulou is a columnist for The Bulletin. 541-617-7836, lraff@bendbulletin.com

Still no pick for federal judge • 203-day vacancy has not affected the resolution time for cases in the state By Andrew Clevenger The Bulletin
WASHINGTON — It’s been more than six months since federal judge Michael Hogan semi-retired by taking senior status, leaving Oregon one judge short of its full complement of six. While Sens. Jeff Merkley and Ron Wyden have recommended a short list of candidates, the White House has yet to name a nominee. Last month, after an advisory committee reported its recommendations to
the senators, they submitted five names to President Barack Obama. The finalists for the Eugene-based judgeship are Lane County Circuit Court Judge Suzanne Chanti, Assistant U.S. Attorney Hannah Horsley, Assistant Federal Public Defender Bryan Lessley and Multnomah County Circuit Judges Michael McShane and Adrienne Nelson. “Oregon has been fortunate to have a long history of outstanding judges serving our state on the federal bench, and we are pleased that the selection
committee identified five excellent candidates who can continue in that tradition,” Wyden and Merkley said in a joint statement. “We are confident that our state and the Eugene community would be well served by having any one of them as a federal judge. We hope that whoever is ultimately nominated by the President will be promptly confirmed and can quickly become the latest in a long line of first-rate federal judges serving Oregon.” See Judge / B2

Tea party supporters cheer after singing the National Anthem at the start of the Bend Tea Party’s “End the Occupation” rally in downtown Bend on Sunday afternoon.
• Tea party leaders tout online media to supporters in downtown Bend By Erik Hidle The Bulletin
T
he Bend Tea Party’s Sunday afternoon “End the Occupation” rally in downtown Bend began with some 200 people shouting the Pledge of Allegiance. Organizers made it clear the volume was needed to send a message to the residents of Bend, politicians and the White House. Although speakers stood atop a flatbed truck backed by a sign proclaiming “Evict Obama,” the event was broad in scope. Oregon Tea Party Chairman John Kuzmanich and Portland-area activist Dan Sandini both spoke to the group, telling them the best way to influence politics in America is to document events through video and online media. Sandini told stories of filming liberal-leaning events in the Portland area and capturing proof of intolerance. He said his work documenting the Occupy Portland movement eventually halted the protest. “In my opinion, we forced (Portland Mayor) Sam Adams to pay attention and force these people out of our city parks,” Sandini said, adding that his message is the same as that of recently deceased activist Andrew Breitbart. “The old media is dead. You are the new media.” Kuzmanich also encouraged people to film events, as well as support statewide ballot measures that reflect tea

party ideals and remain active in the movement. “The cavalry has arrived and it is us,” Kuzmanich said. “The American tea party is here to stay.” Kuzmanich spoke from a speech he delivered in Portland last year, but diverted from the script in the middle to praise recent challenges to Presi-
dent Barack Obama’s health care initiatives. Calling the challenge a move that was done “against all odds,” Kuzmanich promised that the group’s efforts “have just begun.” “I will never, ever give up ... and we will see this country through to better times,” Kuzmanich said. See Tea party / B2
REDMOND
Parks planner might organize district, city merger By Erik Hidle The Bulletin
REDMOND — The Redmond Area Park and Recreation District budget is going to be a bit smaller this year, but a position being added to its staff could set into motion a plan to consolidate the district with the city of Redmond’s parks division.
The district is adding a planner position, which will be paid between $50,000 and $60,000. The city of Redmond will pay half the salary and the planner will look at both city and district assets when considering parks planning in Redmond. The district and city both maintain Redmond parks. The two entities have often
worked together and are discussing merging parks operations under one governing body. The joint hire will continue that discussion, as the planner will be directed to look at parks management regionally. Katie Hammer, the district’s executive director, said last week that both
sides need to improve planning before discussing a merger in earnest. “We as a district lack in parks planning,” Hammer said. “We don’t have a master plan at this point and we need someone to help us with the planning pieces that will take us to the next level.” See Redmond / B2

Redmond Continued from B1 The city of Redmond lost a leadership role in its parks division when it eliminated a parks director position six years ago. The duties of that job were placed on the public works director, and rehiring for the role wasn’t discussed as revenues declined in the sagging economy. The city will be able to free new Public Works Director Bill Duerden from the planning portion of that former role by funding half of the district’s hire. City Manager David Brandt said sharing the planner position allows the city to add the position “at a cost that is affordable,” and that’s a critical consideration as officials continue to label the city budget as austere. Hammer said this year’s district budget will see about a 2 percent decrease, leaving the operating budget around $1.6 million. It’s not a major slash, thanks to cost cutting in previous years, including a reduction in wage increases and a reduction in parks projects. The budget committee must still approve the budget and send it to the district board before the new hire can be made. The committee meets at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday at 465 S.W. Rimrock Way. — Reporter: 541-617-7837, ehidle@bendbulletin.com

ed. For the fiscal year ending on Sept. 30, 2009, Oregon weathered 9.1 vacant judgeship months, followed by 24 in 2010 and 13 in 2011. Over the preceding three years, Oregon had zero vacant months total, according to figures provided by the 9th Circuit. The recent shortages have not resulted in slower resolution of cases, however. In 2006, the median time for a felony case to reach a resolution was 11 months. In 2011, it took an average of only 9.9 months to resolve a felony case. Similarly, in civil cases, the average time per resolution decreased from 11.6 months in 2006 to 10.9 months in 2011. Judge Michael Simon, the last Oregon judge to be confirmed by the Senate, was nominated by Obama in July 2010. Simon had to wait four months to get a hearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, and another six months before the Senate confirmed him by a 64-35 vote in June. The seat filled by Simon had been vacant for 664 days. The vacancy created by Hogan’s assumption of senior status has existed for 203 days. — Reporter: 202-662-7456, aclevenger@bendbulletin.com

O N 151ST ANNIVERSARY OF THE CIVIL WAR
Hearings begin Tuesday in Portland bomb plot By Nigel Duara The Associated Press
Bob Pennell / The Mail Tribune (Medford)
George Berry, of Medford, studies the case of a watch believed to have belonged to Confederate President Jefferson Davis while standing in front of his Civil War library on April 2. Berry and his wife, Lilliana, are displaying their collection of Civil War artifacts and memorabilia at the Eagle Point Branch Library this month, which marks the 151st anniversary of the war’s first conflicts.
Enough history to go around • Library displays pieces from a Medford couple’s collection of Civil War-era artifacts By Paul Fattig The Mail Tribune (Medford)
MEDFORD — If you ran a finger along the business side of the model 1840 cavalry saber owned by Medford residents George and Lilliana Berry, you’d find it about as sharp as a butter knife. “That’s a good sign (for a collector) because they did not sharpen them,” George explained. “If you were to sharpen your sword during the Civil War, you would have been accused of being ungentlemanly and uncivilized.” Besides, the heft of what was considered a heavy saber — nicknamed “old wrist breaker” — made up for the lack of a razor edge, he will tell you. “If you were galloping and started this thing in motion, it is so substantial you’d have a hard time stopping it,” he observed. It is one of a dozen swords in the Berrys’ extensive Civil War collection, much of which is on display this month at the Eagle Point Branch Library. This month marks the 151st anniversary of the opening salvos of that war, which began at Fort Sumter on April 12, 1861. George Berry, 71, is a retired Navy warrant officer who also served in the Marine Corps. He majored in education and minored in history at the University of West Florida. After shedding his military uniform, he became a regional manager for an oil company based in Atlanta, and then retired as sales training coordinator for Lithia. But his passion for Civil War history never waned. With more than 1,000 volumes, he figures the couple has one of the largest private Civil War reference libraries west of the Mississippi. For instance, he has the complete set of U.S. Grant’s memoirs and numerous books about Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee.
The hero of the war In his view, President Abraham Lincoln was clearly the hero of the war. “He was an extraordinary person,” Berry said, adding that few people in the nation could have achieved what Lincoln did during the nation’s most difficult period. His artifact collection includes a Lincoln bust taken from his life mask and an authenticated beaver-skin top hat that belonged to the slain president. Other items include trueto-scale replicas of the USS Monitor and the CSS Virginia, an ironclad made from the Merrimac. He also has a replica of the H.L. Hunley, the

submarine that sank in 1864. Among the firearms on display is a model 1848 .60caliber smoothbore rifle with a fixed bayonet. Given the shortage of weaponry on both sides when the war started in 1861, there is little doubt it was used in the war, he said.
Most prized possession The couple’s prize possession is a silver pocket watch with an enamel inlay believed to have been owned by Confederate President Jefferson Davis. They purchased the watch in 2004 in an auction at Pontiac Exchange in Pontiac, Ill., paying more than $10,000 for the timepiece, which is kept in a safety deposit box. Made by London watchmaker E.J. Dent around 1840, it’s a full hunter watch wound by a tiny key. It resides in an antique olive-wood box that was ornately carved by hand. “It still runs perfectly,” Berry said. “I could see him pull this watch out of his pocket, look at it while standing at the window and say, ‘Lee was supposed to be here by now, and Lee is always on time.’” The watch has been displayed at the First White House of the Confederacy in Montgomery, Ala., and at Beauvoir, the Jefferson Davis Home and Presidential Library in Biloxi, Miss. As for the causes of the war, Berry, a native of California, doesn’t take sides. “I have a good feeling for
both sides,” he said. “When I get into the causes of the war, I don’t get into who was right and who was wrong. You get into ideologies and open a can of worms with that.” The North and the South were essentially two different nations with different cultures, he said. “A dedicated Southerner likes to think it was states’ rights,” he said. “They are not totally wrong. They don’t talk about the war. They talk about secession. “Now, if you talk to somebody in the North, they talk about slavery,” he added. “But what they really stood up against was secession.” And what led to secession? “Slavery — no question about it,” he said, while noting the South was also concerned about what it considered unwarranted tariffs.
‘800-pound gorilla’ in Independence Hall Berry will tell you the foundation for the war was laid in 1787 when the U.S. Constitution was written. “They made the conscious decision not to see the 800pound gorilla in the middle of Independence Hall, even though they realized that slavery was the single biggest issue facing the delegates,” he said. “There was a struggle for 74 years before the war actually started. “Both sides struggled fairly honestly and desperately to not get to where they ultimately had to go,” he added. “But in the end, they failed. That failure drove this country into the darkest, most violent period in this country’s history.”
PORTLAND — The defense team of a 21-year-old Somali-American plans to argue that he was entrapped by government agents who exploited his religious zeal and financial problems to induce him into attempting to detonate a weapon of mass destruction at a Portland Christmas tree-lighting ceremony in 2010. Government prosecutors say such theories are “untethered from reality.” The back-and-forth has, until now, been kept to a series of filings in the case. Defense attorneys for Mohamed Mohamud push for more evidence; the government responds that such evidence either doesn’t exist, or the defense isn’t entitled to it. In evidentiary hearings that begin Tuesday, the matter will finally come to open court. A trial isn’t expected until October, at the earliest. Mohamud came to believe he could detonate a weapon of mass destruction during the Christmas tree-lighting ceremony by dialing a number on his cellphone, but there was no bomb waiting for the ring. The men he thought were his co-conspirators were undercover FBI agents. When he dialed the number, prosecutors say he sealed his fate — the former Oregon State University student transformed in that moment from a wannabe jihadist into a terrorist who
sought to do grave harm to U.S. citizens. Government i nve s t ig ator s began looking Mohamud into Mohamud in 2009, when he was 17 or 18. Undercover agents contacted him, posing as radical Islamic jihadists who wanted to bring Mohamud into the fold. They pretended to show Mohamud how to detonate a bomb and offered him cash to buy bomb-making parts and an apartment to hide in. The defense claims these efforts are evidence that the government entrapped Mohamud. To prove it, Mohamud’s attorneys must show at least three things: That Mohamud wasn’t predisposed to terrorism before government agents sought him out, that the government used sophisticated means to induce Mohamud to participate in the crime and that they exploited Mohamud’s specific vulnerabilities — his reliance on their money and his adherence to his faith. The prosecution’s case boils down to an argument they’ll offer repeatedly to a trial jury: No reasonable person, no matter the inducements of money or appeal to religious glory, could be led to commit what they knew would be an act of terrorism. The prosecutors urged the judge in filings not to compel them to turn over more evidence, arguing that they’ve gone above and beyond what the federal law requires them to turn over.
The defense will also advance another theory: The entire investigation was part of a larger political effort to convince Portland’s City Council that it should rejoin a federal anti-terror task force. The city dropped out in 2005 over civilrights concerns. “That’s a bit of hardball that (the defense is) playing, but it’s well within bounds of what they could do,” said Lewis & Clark law school professor Tung Yin, who has closely followed the case. “It’s always a challenge when you’re writing these motions of how much of a kitchen sink to throw in.” The defense attorneys also say the government didn’t back off when Mohamud resisted, drawing into question how far he would have taken the plot without persistent enticement. “The government tactics appear to be unprecedented,” Mohamud’s attorneys wrote. “When Mr. Mohamud agreed with his father to complete his undergraduate degree ... the FBI continued the inducement by pursuing a face-to-face meeting, invoking God’s will, claiming, ‘I’m sure has good reason for you to stay where you are.’ “ Prosecutors replied to the defense by repeating their original claim, that no matter the inducement, Mohamud’s actions in 2010 show he intended to kill thousands of people. “The investigation and timing of this case were driven by one factor,” prosecutors wrote. “Defendant’s selection of the tree lighting ceremony on November 26, 2010 as his intended target.”
Charges dropped against high-end horse owner The Associated Press PORTLAND — Animal neglect charges have been dismissed against owners of 120 high-end Portuguese Lusitano and Andalusian horses rescued last year from a snowbound Oregon ranch. Wallowa County District Attorney Mona Williams tells The Oregonian that the northeastern Oregon county spent $30,000 saving the Carpe Diem Farm herd near Troy in February 2011 and caring for the horses until June. The owner, 78-year-old Byrde Lynn Hill of Bellevue, Wash., and her former husband, Frank Baxter, initially faced 100 counts of misdemeanor animal neglect. Baxter denied ownership of all but a few of the horses. Williams says charges
against Hill were dropped after she was declared mentally incompetent and a Washington state court appointed a
guardian to care for her. Williams says Wallowa County recovered all but $12,000 spent on the case.

2 candidates are essentially unopposed
M
ost of us will get ballots later this month filled with choices. Sometimes, however, circumstances change between the time a candidate files to
run and the day the ballots are mailed. And sometimes, a candidate is running for reasons that have little to do with the election itself. That latter is the case in the Democratic primary race for Secretary of State this year. Kate Brown, the incumbent, wants to keep her job. Her opponent in the primary, Paul Damien Wells, cares less about the job than about making a statement in favor of top two elections. That’s when all voters get to vote in the primary and general elections and the top two candidates in the primary proceed to the general election, even if they are members of the same party. This is the fourth time Wells has sought nomination for the Secretary of State’s office (he also ran for governor twice) and, as usual, he’s not campaigning seriously. Knowing that, Democrats
should cast their ballots for Brown. She is a serious candidate. She is campaigning around Oregon, serious opposition or not. Closer to home, Deschutes County Commissioner Alan Unger’s name will appear on the Democratic primary ballot alongside that of Dallas Brown. Brown withdrew from the race. Like Kate Brown, Unger holds the job he is seeking and wants to continue doing so. As is the case with the Secretary of State’s contest, we believe Democrats should take Brown at his word and vote for Unger this spring. To do otherwise would be to throw one’s vote away. Primary ballots, meanwhile, will be mailed beginning Thursday, April 27, meaning many of us will have them in hand soon.
Pronghorn question: What is to be gained?
D
eschutes County commissioners have to ask themselves one thing as they consider the latest request by a destination resort to delay a project it had agreed to do months, even years ago: What is to be gained by forcing the issue? Pronghorn, the resort development located between Bend and Redmond, was to have built one of two hotels it promised a year ago. That hasn’t been done, and now the man on the hook for it wants to push back the deadline for it until 2014, and the one for the second hotel until 2016. Meanwhile, he hopes to persuade the county to release interest earned on the bond he posted for the two hotels, some $690,000. State law requires hotels or other overnight rentals at destination resorts for good reason. They assure that the resorts are just that, places to visit, rather than permanent housing subdivisions located in places they normally would not be allowed. To date, Pronghorn has built 48 of a promised 192 units of overnight lodging. But Pronghorn’s developers have had to deal with an economy nobody foresaw when they first opened the doors. Worse, unlike virtually every recession since the early 1980s, this one has lasted for years, not months. Worse still, the region’s tourism industry con-
The county can, if it chooses to do so, take the bond money out of its trust account and build the hotel itself. It has the legal right. It gains nothing by doing so, however, and, in fact, may come out on the short end of the deal. County officials are not developers, and they do not claim to be. tinues to lag in ways no one could have foreseen even five years ago. The county can, if it chooses to do so, take the bond money out of its trust account and build the hotel itself. It has the legal right. It gains nothing by doing so, however, and, in fact, may come out on the short end of the deal. County officials are not developers, and they do not claim to be. They should not be in the hotelbuilding business. By the same token, the county does gain if it gives Pronghorn the time it needs and if it returns the interest on its trust account to the investor who put the money into that account. It gains the possibility of a healthy resort.
My Nickel’s Worth Shocked at Starbucks I learned that Starbucks Corp. has started a campaign (public) to rewrite the marriage laws and to recognize same-sex marriage. I was shocked to learn that a big corporation was willing to go forth with such a thing and get into a political matter of such high controversy. I have decided that I will no longer be buying Starbucks products. There are plenty of other local coffee shops that I can get my coffee from to show Starbucks that I am not in favor of its decision to go into politics (especially on such a matter as same-sex marriages, and to try to change our laws that our forefathers so graciously fought to save for the country). I would be offended to know that part of my coffee purchase would go to such a cause. It is time to stop Starbucks in its tracks. I know my family will no longer buy from it or buy its products.

Different treatment by U.S. Army It is interesting to me to compare what happened at Fort Hood about two years ago with the recent Army Staff Sgt. Robert Bales event in Afghanistan. There is not a direct parallel, but the difference in treatment by the U.S. Army is stark. There is no doubt that the alleged charges against Bales are just, but serious questions should be answered by the U.S. Army in both cases.
At Fort Hood, an Army officer, with known radical Islamic leanings prior to the shooting of American soldiers, shouted anti-American slogans as he gunned down our troops. Instead of calling this an Islamic terrorist attack, the Army’s PR, we understand, called the event a “workplace disturbance.� Regarding the Bales event, we understand he had seen a buddy maimed shortly before he went on the rampage. Did the Army call this “an off-base workplace disturbance�? No, a worldwide tragedy! Did the Army want to be politically correct in the Fort Hood shootings, avoiding radical profiling? Not calling it what it certainly was: a terrorist attack? Next question, but not being addressed in the media: Why was a seasoned soldier serving with decorations — but known problems both in and out of service and, we understand, suffering brain damage — sent back into a “hot� area when he expected to be posted at a non-violent base? The doctor who approved his fourth tour in a “hot� zone under these conditions should have some answering to do. The Army should investigate the root causes of this decision! Edward L. Kimball, WWII Marine Redmond
Terrified by opinions on women Women who think like Ruth Fee terrify me. Is she also against women voting, or going to college — the way America was not so long ago, and the way it still is for many women in the world? The opinions expressed in Fee’s In My View column on April 1 remind me of women who are not only willing to live in a backwards
state, but want to, some in a head-totoe chador, literally or figuratively, ashamed and fearful of who they are and what they could be. And what is worse, women who want to legally force other women to live according to their twisted principles. Women need to be celebrated and supported, not torn down and forced backwards. How could The Bulletin think her position represents anyone except an extreme fringe? Paula Bullwinkel Bend
Endorsing fluoride in water supply Thank you for your endorsement of mandatory fluoridation of municipal water supplies. As a family physician who has practiced in Philomath for almost 35 years, I can testify to the tragedy of childhood dental cavities, the number one disease among Oregon children. After 30 years of safe and inexpensive prevention, our City Council last year removed fluoride from Philomath’s water. It did this without consulting any local public health professionals (dentists, doctors, etc.). I believe council members based their votes upon incorrect information that they obtained from the Internet. Subsequently, the citizens of Philomath educated themselves and in an election last month overwhelmingly voted to return fluoride to the community water. The United States Public Health Service declared that fluoridation of municipal water sources was one of the 10 most important public health measures in the 20th century! Indeed, it is something to proudly smile about. Dr. David R. Grube Philomath

Newsman Mike Wallace also exposed depression By Anne Michaud Newsday
M
ike Wallace, the groundbreaking TV newsman who died earlier this month at 93, worked hard at earning his toughguy image. During some of the most volatile events of our times, he asked pointed questions of powerful people: members of the Nixon administration, cigarette manufacturers, the Ayatollah Khomeini, Louis Farrakhan, champions of the Vietnam War. He tossed aside his nervy image, though, to highlight a problem that many men have difficulty admitting: depression. This revelation by a highly visible tough guy has encouraged untold numbers to seek help. Wallace spoke publicly about his depression for the first time during a “60 Minutes� retrospective of his ca-
reer in 2006. He told the camera that he had tried to commit suicide. Before Wallace went public, his doctor advised him against owning up to the illness. “‘That’s bad for your image,’� Wallace quoted his doctor as saying, in an interview with the Saturday Evening Post. “But finally, I had to face up to it.� Although it’s more common for women to suffer from depression, men with this affliction more often end their lives, according to research published in the journal Suicide in 2008. Because families and the press are reluctant to make suicides public, it’s not widely known that suicides are far more common in the United States than homicides — an estimated 30,000 to 35,000 each year. The majority of men who kill themselves have not asked for help before their deaths, according to Ci-
aran Mulholland, a psychiatrist and international expert from Queens University in Belfast, Northern Ireland, whose findings hold for men all over the world. The reasons are poorly understood. Perhaps men are less likely to recognize that they are under stress or unhappy, Mulholland says, and more reluctant to consult their doctor about their distress. Exacerbating the problem, health professionals are often less likely to consider a diagnosis of mental illness in men, Mulholland adds. This is true also for seniors, and especially African-American seniors, according to Charles Reynolds, a professor of psychiatry, neurology and neuroscience at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. Depression is hard to admit to. Even with everything we’ve learned about mental illness, it’s often viewed
as a moral or personal failing rather than as a medical problem. There’s no blood test to show that someone is depressed, just a list of grim symptoms. Similarly, there’s no clear understanding of what causes depression, just its risk factors: unemployment, social isolation, chronic illness. Wallace was in his mid-60s when he plunged into a depression that put him in the hospital. He had been fighting a courtroom battle for his journalistic credibility, after being sued by Gen. William Westmoreland, who commanded the U.S. military in Vietnam from 1964 to 1968. Westmoreland alleged that he had been libeled by the Wallace documentary “The Uncounted Enemy: A Vietnam Deception,� which claimed that U.S. leaders had deliberately underestimated enemy troop strength to prop
up domestic support for the war. Westmoreland eventually dropped the suit. In the midst of the trial, Wallace remembered, “I couldn’t sleep, couldn’t think straight, was losing weight, and my self-esteem was disappearing.� When Wallace spoke publicly about his depression, his message was that it is treatable — so much so that, at 88, he said the decades since he had begun taking antidepressants had been the best of his life. He lobbied for better health insurance coverage for mental illness. When he embraced his depression, Wallace was motivated by a cause larger than himself. Just as he was in his journalism. This was one tough guy who could inspire us at our weakest. — Anne Michaud is interactive editor for Newsday’s opinion pages.

Defense Auditor travels Oregon, to hunting mismanagement seeks ban tape in
By Rachel Stark The Oregonian
PORTLAND — When Tiffany Couch’s phone rings, it often means trouble for another Oregon city. Last year she was called to Oakridge, a Lane County timber town of about 3,700 people that in two years ran through $1 million in reserves. She scoured the city’s books and interviewed staff in search of fraud or some explanation for the town’s financial mess. Couch issued a report of her findings — error-racked budgets, sloppy bookkeeping, overspending — along with her best advice. Then she was off. Her next client was waiting 130 miles north. Molalla. The two small towns, Couch learned, share remarkable similarities. The mistakes piled up, the options narrowed, and the towns faced insolvency. In a state that provides minimal financial oversight, it’s a story she expects to pop up more and more. Couch, who owns Vancouver-based auditing firm Acuity Group, said strains from the recession are now trickling down to local governments. County and state funding have dropped, and the cost of providing employee health care and pensions continues to soar. The down economy also means less revenue from fees and unpaid property taxes. In the case of Curry and other rural Oregon counties, the loss of federal forest payments adds to the squeeze. “In some of these cities, they probably had healthy rainy day funds they could draw from,� Couch said. “But as they use that every year, they’re running out. Now they can’t maintain the services on the money that’s coming in every year.�
National trend The trend reverberates across the nation. In November, Alabama’s largest county, Jefferson, filed the largest municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history. Stockton, Calif., population 300,000, could be next. And no one knows how many small U.S. towns, which often operate on smaller margins, are in trouble. Oregon doesn’t allow cities to go bankrupt, leaving them to work through financial problems on their own. Some cities cut expenses when the recession began. Those that didn’t faced tougher decisions later. Some took risks. Some got creative. But when those approaches failed, cities found themselves in worse straits. Coburg, north of Eugene, was one of the risk-takers. City officials tapped into reserves to fund expensive projects, which they expected would generate
“In some of these cities, they probably had healthy rainy day funds they could draw from, but as they use that every year, they’re running out. Now they can’t maintain the services on the money that’s coming in every year.� — Tiffany Couch, owner, Acuity Group
enough money to cover the costs. The money did not materialize, and the hole continued to grow. “In retrospect we can look at it and say, ‘How could they have done that?’� said Coburg city attorney Milo Mecham, who is helping the Lane County city rebound from debt. “But when you’re in the trenches in these small cities, it’s very, very hard to look up and see the big picture. It’s easy to make a mistake.�
Expecting trouble, finding something worse Ellen Barnes took the job as Molalla’s city manager in October, knowing the budget would pose a challenge. But when she dug into the numbers, a larger mess unfolded. Five-digit expenses were omitted from the $15.9 million budget. Projected tax revenues were unreasonably inflated. City contracts went unbudgeted and unpaid, including one with Clackamas County now $68,000 in arrears. Practices trailing back years violated state budget laws. In January, Barnes told a shocked City Council that Molalla was racing toward a $400,000 general fund deficit. “I’ve never seen anything like it,� Barnes said. Barnes turned to Couch, the forensic investigator. Last month, after poring over the finance records, Couch dealt Molalla an even bigger blow. She said the city between 2004 and 2008 misspent $2.5 million in development charges — fees paid by contractors that legally can be used only to pay for roads or other development-related public improvements. Oregon law requires cities to repay misused system development charges within a year of discovery. Molalla has since cut four staff positions and last week approved a supplemental budget that puts the city on better financial footing. But with little money to start next year, the city could still enter uncharted territory. “I didn’t think a city could get like this,� Barnes said. “Where were the state oversight agencies?� In Oregon, two agencies are responsible for monitoring local government finances, the Department of Revenue and Secretary of State Audits Division. Both acknowledge pro-
viding minimal oversight. Lee Peterson, a finance and tax analyst for the Department of Revenue, said his agency typically reviews city budget only when someone calls with a complaint. The department cannot tell a city how to spend its money, Peterson said, but can check for budget law compliance. Secretary of State Audit Manager Phil Hopkins said he’s the only one to review the annual audits, completed by independent agencies, for more than 1,700 public entities. He picks at random 100 reports to read each year, meaning cities can go without oversight for years. Hopkins said auditing agencies are supposed to document financial problems for city officials, who are then supposed to follow up with letters to the Secretary of State outlining corrective action. Once those letters are written, Hopkins said he doesn’t have the staff or time to check back the following year to see if the city followed through. “A lot of times this stuff goes on,� Peterson said, “and we never even hear about it.� Even when the state does find budget mismanagement, there are no real consequences for cities that don’t fix their problems. Facing no penalties, some Molalla residents wonder why cuts must occur, Barnes said. “That’s one of the arguments council has,� she said. “They’re like, ‘we’ve done it before, the state understands we’re working on the problem, so what if we go into deficit again?’�
Getting to know the town When Tiffany Couch spends time in a financially troubled city, she gets to know the residents. She sees people working hard to pay the bills, and she thinks about the additional strains that will soon fall on them due to the city’s monetary mess. Since July, Oakridge has scrambled to overcome a $420,000 shortfall in a $7.3 million budget. Couch found no fraud, but uncovered inaccurate budgeting, spending sprees and three years of incomplete audits. She said the former city manager was drawing out of savings to make payroll and other expenditures without informing city council. Twelve Oakridge employees, or about a third of city staff, lost their jobs in layoffs, and City Administrator Gordon Zimmerman resigned. The reductions caused a domino effect, hindering the city’s ability to maintain parks and patch streets. Residents are also paying 41 percent more a month for water and saying goodbye to popular city-funded events and programs such as summer fireworks and concerts. “Now they’re going to have to pony up more money to get the city out of this problem,� Couch said. “I think that’s the biggest travesty of all.�
O B Car hits Keizer home, hurting 3
Man drowns saving son in Columbia
KEIZER — Police say that all three occupants of a car that slammed into a Keizer home were severely intoxicated. The crash happened early Saturday morning when the 1999 Honda failed to negotiate a curve, crashed through a fence, traveled 200 feet across a field and struck a tree, the house and the front porch. The home and the car were badly damaged, and all three people in the car were injured. The Marion County Sheriff’s Office identified the driver as 24-year-old Jesse Fordyce. He had a blood-alcohol content more than three times the legal limit, police said. He remains in the hospital. His passengers, a 21-yearold woman and a 19-yearold man, were both treated at Salem Hospital. None of the three was wearing a seat belt.
CLATSKANIE — A Clatskanie man is dead after jumping into the frigid Columbia river to save his 2-year-old son. Brant Hicks, 35, was found dead about 30 feet from where he had last been seen Saturday. Hicks was on a fishing boat with his son and three other relatives in an area called the Wallace Slough, near Clatskanie. The boy fell into the water, and Hicks jumped in. He managed to hand the boy to someone in the boat, but then he went under. He was not wearing a life jacket. The boy, who was wearing a live vest, was treated at a hospital for signs of hypothermia and later released.
Mother, daughter lead police on chase The mental health of a mother and daughter was evaluated Sunday night after they reportedly led Clackamas County authorities on a chase and deputies had to use Tasers
to get them out of a car. Cheryl Seratt, 51, was driving a Honda Accord with her daughter Tawnya Seratt, 29, who was a passenger, and a 4year-old child at 6:35 p.m. Sunday when Clackamas County Sheriff’s Office deputies received a report that the car had reportedly driven across the lawn of the Estacada City Hall. When Cheryl Seratt and Tawnya Seratt, both of Milwaukie, refused to get out of the car, deputies used Tasers to take them into custody. The child found in the back seat was unharmed. — From wire reports
newborn death case The Associated Press EUGENE — Attorneys for a 24-year-old hotel clerk accused of killing her newborn son argued Friday that jurors in her new murder trial should not hear a conversation with her sister videotaped at the Springfield Police Department shortly after her December 2010 confession to smothering a newborn son. The Register-Guard in Eugene reports defense attorneys for Angelica Swartout say a taped conversation should be off limits to jurors because Swartout began it by repeatedly telling a police officer she did not wish to speak to her sister. Her attorney says those protestations amounted to invoking her right to remain silent. “When you say you don’t want to talk anymore ... that is a line citizens get to draw and law enforcement does not get to cross that line,� said defense attorney Evelyn Oldenkamp. In a motion filed this week, she wrote that the same alleged violation of Swartout’s constitutional rights also should prevent jurors from hearing Swartout’s subsequent interview with Springfield Detective George Crolly, “wherein she concedes to his version of what happened to the alleged fetus.� Lane County Deputy District Attorney Bob Lane asked Lane County Circuit Judge Suzanne Chanti to deny the motion and let the new jury consider both conversations as evidence. Swartout’s first murder trial ended in a mistrial Feb. 9, after jurors deadlocked without a verdict after four days of deliberation. A new trial is set to begin April 30.
Scientists to test method to fight mussels The Associated Press VANCOUVER, Wash. — Researchers in the Pacific Northwest plan to test whether a chemical coating that they hope prevents invasive mussels from clogging dams will work on Lake Mead at the ArizonaNevada border. Invasive zebra and quagga mussels aren’t in the Pacific Northwest yet, but hydropower managers on the Columbia River fear that if they reach the area, they’ll spread uncontrollably, filling dam pipes and crowding out other wildlife. The Columbian of Vancouver, Wash., reports that later this year, researchers at a Washington state port will bring panels coated with a chemical solution to Lake Mead to see how the mussels themselves react to the coating. Lake Mead is about 30 miles southeast of Las Vegas. With any luck, the force of water current alone will be enough to dislodge them.

Salem citizens commuting to Portland outnumber Portlanders driving to capital The Associated Press SALEM — Civic leaders in Salem have long been frustrated by the flood of commuters from Portland, who drive in for their state government jobs and leave town by 5 p.m., contributing little to the capital city’s culture and commerce. It turns out, though, that Interstate 5 is a two-way street. Census figures show that more people commute in the opposite direction, from their homes in Salem to jobs in Portland and its suburbs. About 31,000 Salem-area residents reported a primary job in the Portland-Vancouver metropolitan area — 7,000 more than reported the opposite. The numbers of Salem-toPortland commuters didn’t surprise Roxanne Daniel, a Wilsonville resident who works in Salem and plans to move there soon. “It’s so much less expen-

sive to live in Salem,” Daniel told the Statesman Journal in Salem. Some commuters say the depressed housing market is an obstacle to moving closer to their job. They worry that their homes would languish on the market, or they would have to accept a cut-rate price for a quick sale.
‘My job is where it’s at’ Jim Conlin doesn’t mind working in one city and keeping the rest of his life rooted in another. The state worker makes the daily commute to Salem from Beaverton, where he grew up. “My job is where it’s at. My home is where it’s at,” said Conlin. He isn’t prepared to sell his house in a down market and relocate. Still, while Salem may export more workers to Portland than it receives, it still has unique challenges. Eighteen percent of Salem’s workforce
— nearly one in five workers — lives in the Portland area. And that’s a problem, said Salem Mayor Anna Peterson, who sees cash for the local economy and potential civic leadership leaving town at 65 mph. “We lose their participation in the community,” Peterson said. Many commuters from the Portland area, combined with an abundance of state property that is exempt from property taxes, has long vexed city leaders. Some have occasionally argued that Salem isn’t getting its fair share of tax revenue. Ten years ago, a faction of the Salem City Council pushed for a city income tax structured to primarily affect commuters. The plan was opposed by Salem’s business community, however, and by 2003, when former Mayor Janet Taylor first took office, the idea was dead.

Man involved in standoff is a corrections worker The Associated Press TURNER — A longtime officer with the state Department of Corrections has been arrested for investigation of attempted murder after he shot at police during a standoff at his home, authorities said. Michael Wilson Yann, 39, turned himself just before 1 a.m. Sunday following a 3½-hour standoff that began when police received a complaint about a drunken man staggering down the street, the Marion County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release. Yann has worked for the Corrections Department for 15 years. He is assigned to a unit based mainly out of Salem. At about 9 p.m. Saturday, a man called police to report a drunken man walking down the middle of the street. The caller said that when he encouraged the
man to get out of the street, the man challenged him to fight. Officers responded, contacting Yann in front of his house. As they spoke with Yann and his wife, Yann ran inside and came back out with a handgun, firing several shots toward the
police, the sheriff’s office said. The man went back inside and fired more shots. A Marion County SWAT team, tactical negotiators and officers from Keizer, Salem and the Oregon State Police responded.

Difference of opinion • Activist groups — big and small — clash over solar plans By Julie Cart Los Angeles Times

AMARGOSA VALLEY, Calif. — April Sall gazed out at the Mojave Desert flashing past the car window and unreeled a story of frustration and backroom dealings. Her small California group, the Wildlands Conservancy, wanted to preserve 600,000 acres of the Mojave. The group raised $45 million, bought the land and deeded it to the federal government. The conservancy intended that the land be protected forever. InGREEN stead, 12 years after accepting the largest land gift in American history, the federal government is on the verge of opening 50,000 acres of that bequest to solar development. Even worse, in Sall’s view, the nation’s largest environmental organizations are scarcely voicing opposition. Their silence leaves the conservancy and a smattering of other small environmental organizations nearly alone in opposing energy development across 33,000 square miles of desert land. “We got dragged into this because the big groups were standing on the sidelines and we were watching this big conservation legacy practically go under a bulldozer,” said Sall, the organization’s conservation director. “We said, ‘We can’t be silent anymore.’” See Solar / C6

• Monitoring equipment on top of Mount Bachelor tracks air pollutant levels
Baboons can recognize written words, study finds
By Elon Glucklich The Bulletin
small metal pipe protruding from the Summit chairlift station atop Mount Bachelor at 9,000 feet belies the complex data readings scientists receive from the building below. The pipe collects samples of air around the mountain and transmits the data to air quality researchers across the country. The equipment is putting Mount Bachelor near the forefront of pollution testing on the West Coast. Cutting-edge monitoring equipment, in place atop the mountain since 2004, can register microscopic pollutants in the OTECH air from as far away as Asia. Some recent work on that equipment has allowed it to sample a far greater number of pollutants than before. And in the next few weeks, it should be able to record measurements almost instantly, increasing the accuracy of readings. The data could help scientists better understand how rapidly industrializing countries in Asia affect air quality in America. In a project spearheaded by Dan Jaffe, a professor of chemistry and atmospheric science at the University of Washington-Bothell, the monitoring devices have recorded air samples from the top of the mountain for more than seven years. Jaffe and his small team spent the first few years tracking microscopic elements like carbon monoxide, mercury and radon. Data from the monitors have been included in at least 20 scientific, industry and Environmental Protection Agency publications, Jaffe said. EPA reports in 2007 detailed carbon di-

oxide emissions entering the U.S. through China, citing observations at the station atop Mount Bachelor. Inside the Summit chairlift station, the monitoring devices look like a series of small, personal computers, Jaffe explained. Air that flows in through the outdoor pipe is filtered through a chiller box, which cools the air, then passes it into 0.7-liter glass flasks, where, as gaseous samples, it can be analyzed for various pollutants. Mount Bachelor provided the perfect vantage point to set up the station, Jaffe said, due to the ease of measuring air and wind patterns around an isolated volcano versus another location where adjoining mountains could alter wind patterns and air readings. Easy access to the top of the mountain via Mt. Bachelor ski area’s chairlift has also been a plus. “We’ve spent a lot of time trying to under-
stand how much the air we see at the top of Mount Bachelor looks like the air that blows in from the Pacific Ocean,” Jaffe said. It would be one thing if the air was so dirty that it could be seen by the human eye in the form of smog. But “most of the time the air is pretty clean,” Jaffe said, “so we have to have very good-quality instruments to measure incredibly small particles.” How small? The Mount Bachelor equipment can track an element of pollution that’s one part per billion of an air sample. Recording these microscopic pollutants is no easy task. Pinpointing one part per trillion in an air sample would be the equivalent of isolating one droplet of water out of 15.5 million gallons, according to a publication of the Extension Toxicology Network, a multi-university collaboration studying toxic air- and waterborne particles.

LOS ANGELES — Baboons don’t read, don’t speak and perhaps can’t understand language at all. But scientists have found that they can learn to recognize writing on a computer screen, identifying correctly most of the time which combinations of letters are words (“done,” “vast”) and which are not (“telk,” “virt”). The discovery may help explain how reading evolved, researchers said, bolstering a theory that the skill first arose SCIENCE from animals’ ability to distinguish objects, rather than from the uniquely human demands of verbal communication. “Maybe we use letters to read words because we’re mimicking what we do with everyday objects,” said Jonathan Grainger, a cognitive psychologist at the National Center for Scientific Research and Aix-Marseille University in France and lead author of an article about the research published Thursday in the journal Science. Grainger’s work generally focuses on primates of the human sort. His usual guinea pigs are university students, whom he studies to ascertain the elementary processes people use to decode individual words. In this experiment, however, Grainger turned to baboons because he wanted to test a theory offered by some A baboon in neuroscientists: Reading Zimbabwe takes advantage of visual systems in the brain that Tsvangirayi Mukwazhi AP originally evolved to identify all sorts of objects, such as trees and food. Grainger needed to see whether animals without linguistic capacity could recognize words, and study co-author Joel Fagot runs a research facility housing 30 baboons. See Baboons / C6

A & A
Friend’s focus on food may mean she’s famished Dear Abby: My friend “Veronica� is obsessed with food — not just eating it, but also talking about it, looking at it and watching me eat. She frequently asks me what I’m eating, especially if it’s something I have made. I can’t open a container of yogurt without her asking what flavor it is. On a daily basis, Veronica announces what she’s making for dinner that night, what she made the night before and what kind of desserts she has planned. I used to share my food with her, but I stopped when she wanted bites I didn’t offer. I had to stop buying from the vending machine at work, too, because Veronica began to expect to share. When I refused, she’d make “joking� snide remarks. She never has any money to return the favors. Veronica will tap her cup on the table and watch me out of the corner of her eye. Or, she’ll stare at what I’m eating. If anyone at the table has extra food or dessert, Veronica will be the first to take it. She could tell you what all five women at that table had for lunch that day, but she’s particularly interested in mine. Veronica is a good cook, and she’s not overweight. But she’s driving me crazy. Is her obsession some kind of disorder? — Food-shy in Ohio Dear Food-shy: Your friend does seem to be preoccupied with food. From your description of her behavior it’s surprising that she doesn’t have a weight problem. Yet you say she makes dinners and desserts every night. Could it be that she doesn’t eat breakfast or lunch, which is why she’s mooching off the others? Or could she be short of money? While I agree that what you have described could be signs of an obsession, it is possible that the woman is
DEAR ABBY famished. Dear Abby: I’m 18 and a high school graduate. My best friend was raped a year ago. It took her a long time to be able to tell me, and although I begged her to tell, she would not go to the authorities. She has heard stories from other girls and has reason to believe the same boy has raped them, too. I believe if she came forward, the other girls might speak up. Then he won’t be able to continue to do this to other girls. But I can’t change her mind. Is there something I can do? Can I go to the police and tell them what she told me? Should I talk to a lawyer? I don’t want to see her regret not doing something. She’s very fragile and this is so hard for her. She has told very few people. Please tell me how to help her. I don’t know what to do. — Wish I Could Do More, Birmingham, Ala. Dear Wish: The most helpful thing you can do is encourage your friend to contact a rape treatment center. Although the rape occurred a year ago, she can still benefit from counseling to help her recover from the trauma. If she is reluctant to go, then give her the phone number of the Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network (R.A.I.N.N.). It’s 800-656-4673. A counselor there may be able to help her find the help she needs. However, she needs to do this for herself. As well-meaning as you are, you can’t do it for her. — Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Monitors Continued from C1 Every day, the Mount Bachelor instruments capture samples of the air in the glass flasks. The raw data from those flasks are transmitted via computer to a National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration lab in Colorado. The task of interpreting that data lies with Jonathan Kofler, a senior research associate with NOAA. The raw data are measured for various levels of particulate matter, like carbon monoxide. More simply put, Kofler takes the periodic readings from the Mount Bachelor station and, accounting for things like wind speed and direction, precipitation and temperature, analyzes the samples to determine just how much of each element is in the air around the mountain at the time of the reading. Up on the mountain, pollutants that pass through the pipe and into the moni-

toring device are measured using spectrometers, which measure the elements using light. Air captured in the flasks is held as gasses. Various elements in those gasses respond differently as light is reflected on them. These variations can tell scientists how much of a given element is in that air sample. Since October, Kofler has been working with Jaffe and his team, including Central Oregon Community College chemistry students Emily Weidner and McKenzie Amodei, to update the equipment at the ski area’s chairlift building. Periodic maintenance on the tubes and monitoring device has been a constant source of work for Jaffe and his crew since they started taking readings. Breakdowns in the machine are not entirely uncommon, Jaffe said, and when errors do occur, the machine may not record pollution readings at all. So workers need to be ready at a moment’s notice to head up to

the mountain for repairs. Kofler’s work on the equipment has expanded the types of pollutants the equipment can monitor, including numerous organic compounds, like chloro- and fluorocarbons. These types of carbons, released as industrial pollutants, can cross thousands of miles over air and sea. Jaffe said his research has shown physical evidence that rapid industrialization in Asia has had an impact on the air that comes into the Western United States from the Pacific Ocean. “The big question is, as countries like China and India develop (industrially), how will what they do influence air quality?� Jaffe said. Just how much impact that air pollution from Asia has on the West Coast has been the basis for much of Jaffe’s research. Kofler said the data coming in from the weather station atop Mount Bachelor have helped NOAA track trace levels of pollution as it arrives

from the Pacific Ocean. But there’s still room for improvement, both Kofler and Jaffe said. In the coming weeks, they hope to modify their monitoring system so that it takes and relays nearly instantaneous readings, versus the periodic readings it currently captures at various times in the day. “Some of the instruments do what we call averaging. They collect samples for an hour before they give a reading,� Jaffe said. Any spikes in pollution levels during that hour would be difficult to track, because those readings give off an average for that hour. The upgraded instruments will send nearly instantaneous readings to the NOAA laboratories in Colorado. “Basically, it would be like having a webcam� for data, Kofler said. “We could see in real time the data, whereas right now we’re only seeing snapshots.� —Reporter: 541-617-7820, eglucklich@bendbulletin.com

Baboons
Solar
Continued from C1 Six baboons were permitted to approach computer monitors whenever they wanted. The touch screens displayed a string of four letters, which could be a word or a non-word. Grainger and his colleagues trained the baboons to touch the letters to initiate the test. In the next step, the letters would vanish and two response symbols would appear on the screen, either of which the baboon could opt to touch. A light blue oval on the right was the correct response for a real word, and a dark blue cross on the left was correct for a nonsense string of letters. The baboons got a wheat reward if they pressed the correct symbol. “Joel thought it was crazy, that baboons would not do it,” Grainger said. But the monkeys proved quite able, learning to discern dozens of words interspersed among nearly 8,000 nonwords with almost 75 percent accuracy, the team reported. After six weeks, the “best baboon” — a high achiever named Dan — had learned 308 words. After they got the idea, even words that Dan and the other baboons saw for the first time triggered fewer “non-word” responses than could be expected by random chance. “It’s not just memorizing,” Grainger said. “It’s picking up what we call these statistical regularities: Certain letter combinations appear more frequently in words than in non-words.” Michael Platt, director of the Duke Institute for Brain Science at Duke University in Durham, N.C., and author of an editorial in Science that accompanied the study, said he believed this was “the first study of wordlike recognition in a nonhuman animal.”
Continued from C1 Similar stories can be heard across the desert Southwest. Small environmental groups are fighting utility-scale solar projects without the support of what they refer to as “Gang Green,” the nation’s big environmental players. Local activists accuse the Sierra Club, the Natural Resources Defense Council, Defenders of Wildlife, the Wilderness Society and other venerable environmental groups of acquiescing to the industrialization of the desert because they believe large-scale solar power is essential to slowing climate change. Janine Blaeloch, director of the Western Lands Project, a small public lands watchdog group, said Gang Green’s members are compliant in order to make themselves more inviting to major foundations. In recent years, grants for projects focusing on climate change and energy have become the two topfunded issues in environmental philanthropy. Foundations have awarded tens of millions of dollars in grants to environmental groups that make renewable energy a top priority. “It’s not that they solely and directly make decisions based on funding, but they keep their eyes open to what foundations want,” Blaeloch said. As a result, “you’ve got enviros exactly where industry wanted them to be,” she said. Big environmental organizations say they have agonized over how to approach the issue. They acknowledge that development can have irreversible effects on ecosystems. But they are reluctant to stand in the way of renewable energy projects they regard as a vital response to climate change, which they consider the nation’s most serious environmental challenge. The Sierra Club, NRDC and Defenders of Wildlife filed suit last month to stop the troubled Calico solar project northeast of Los Angeles. But for the
Funding for climate-related causes and renewable energy Gaining the cooperation of major environmental groups is crucial to the development of renewable energy. Although there are significant environmental concerns about building industrial-scale solar projects in the Mojave Desert, most of the mainstream groups support solar energy — which is an issue that has also become a source of funding.

most part the big players have embraced solar development. Instead of following the old adversarial formula of saying no to everything, they have adopted an approach they call, “Getting to yes.” Grass-roots groups say that strategy has failed to protect the desert. What’s worse, they say, is that the imprimatur of such groups as the Sierra Club has provided a “green halo” to energy companies and the government — making it easy for them to ignore local environmental concerns.
Projects in the works Two major projects under way in the Mojave illustrate the divide between local and national groups. Desert activists vigorously oppose the BrightSource Energy project in the east Mojave’s Ivanpah Valley and NextEra’s Genesis solar plant 20 miles west of Blythe. National groups have not mounted a strong challenge to either project. When BrightSource was planning the Ivanpah installation, the big environmental players urged the firm to move the bulk of the project closer to Interstate 5 to avoid prime habitat for the desert tortoise, a pro-
tected species. The company responded by reducing its total footprint by 12 percent, which didn’t solve the problem. After construction began, large numbers of desert tortoises were discovered. According to federal biologists, BrightSource is now responsible for relocating and caring for 95 percent of all the tortoises expected to be found on all solar project sites in the Mojave. Some rank-and-file Sierra Club members had wanted to sue to stop the project altogether, but the group’s national board of directors vetoed that proposal in favor of a more neutral approach. Separately, the Sierra Club has scolded some in the Southern California desert chapters for opposing solar projects. The national office issued a 42-page directive laying out the organization’s policy regarding renewable energy and instructed local chapters to fall in line. “It was pretty clear that the national club policy was to foster large-scale solar,” said longtime Sierra Club member Joan Taylor. “I don’t know how many times I’ve heard that building solar in the desert is going to save the world.” The NRDC’s involvement at
Ivanpah was constrained by a conflict of interest: NRDC senior attorney Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a BrightSource investor. On the Genesis project, the Sierra Club and others met with NextEra executives and urged the company to abandon its plans for the site out of concern that it is too close to a wilderness area. In addition, local groups warned the developer that the site contained sensitive cultural resources. The project went ahead, only to become embroiled in controversy over the discovery of Native American cultural artifacts that halted construction on one-fifth of the site. The Interior Department’s plan to open a vast swath of desert to solar energy is another instance local activists say demonstrates the ineffectiveness of Big Green’s approach. In late 2010, environmental groups worked with energy companies and the government on a policy that restricted development to 677,000 acres in designated solar zones. Environmentalists left the table believing Interior would refine the agreement to even further reduce the land open to development. Instead, not long after that

compromise, Interior said 21 million acres would be available for development through a variance process, a change that no one in the environmental community supported. If the plan is approved as expected, the nation’s leading environmental groups will have been outflanked by solar developers. “The Sierra Club and the NRDC — their mission is to work on climate change” above all else, Sall said. “We refuse to compromise on that level.” The smaller groups have formed their own alliance, Solar Done Right, that supports renewable energy in previously disturbed or low-conflict lands. The Sierra Club’s Barbara Boyle, senior lead for energy issues, said she understands the frustration of smaller groups. “I can appreciate that it doesn’t seem that we have gotten what we want out of the process yet,” she said. Asked if the big players had been outmaneuvered by solar developers, Boyle said, “That’s always possible.” But she said her 30 years of working for environmental causes have taught her that “the way that we win is through incremental progress.”

Taking the tennis team by Storm • Junior Scott Parr is an integral part of Summit’s squad despite taking up the sport just two years ago BEAU EASTES
S
ummit High boys tennis coach Josh Cordell is not one to be taken by surprise. Cordell, who has guided the Storm to two state titles in the last three years, keeps a close eye on the Bend area’s young tennis talent and usually has a pretty good idea who will contend for a spot on his varsity roster. “I’m one of those guys that pencils out his lineup three years ahead of time,” Cordell says, only half joking. “You know where the kids are at, you see where they’re at in junior high. … Kids can beat other kids and move past them, but I’m realistic about where kids are at and where they
can go.” Which makes Scott Parr’s rise from junior varsity player as a freshman to state qualifier as a sophomore all the more impressive. Two years after playing his first competitive tennis — he had not entered a tournament before high school — Parr, now a junior, is one of the top players on one of the top teams in the state. He and partner Lionel Hess typically alternate between No. 1 and No. 2 doubles for Summit, which is favored to successfully defend its 2011 Class 5A title at next month’s state championship tournament. “He’s a big, strong kid, and he’s still just scratching the surface,” Cordell says about his 6-foot-4-inch lefthander. “He’s got a big strong serve that eventually’s going to be unreal.” See Tennis / D6

Summit’s Scott Parr took up the sport of tennis just two years ago, but he is now a key contributor for a Storm team that is the favorite to defend its Class 5A state championship this season.

New York Yankees Robinson Cano, left, and Derek Jeter join Rachel Robinson, widow of Jackie Robinson, prior to Sunday night’s game.
League honors Jackie Robinson NEW YORK — LaTroy Hawkins has heard the stories from his 87-yearold grandfather, about his days of picking cotton in Mississippi, about the times when there were no black players in big league baseball. And about what it meant when Jackie Robinson broke the game’s color barrier. “Without Jackie, I wouldn’t be in front of you,” the Los Angeles Angels pitcher told several dozen kids at a Bronx ballfield Sunday. “Jackie’s role in my life has been tremendous.” From Dodger Stadium to Fenway Park, there were ceremonies as Major League Baseball honored Robinson and his legacy. Video tributes and on-field celebrations at every ballpark included his family, his former teammates, players from the Negro Leagues, NBA great Bill Russell and members of the Tuskegee Airmen. Players, managers, coaches and umpires all wore No. 42 on Jackie Robinson Day to remember the 65th anniversary of the day the future Hall of Famer first took the field with the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1947. Markers on each base noted the occasion. Rachel Robinson, Jackie’s wife, and her family took part in a tribute Sunday night before the Angels played the New York Yankees. Hawkins noted the dwindling percentage of black players in the big leaguers. There were only 8.5 percent on opening day in 2011 — there were twice as many in 1990 when the Richard Lapchick’s Institute for Diversity and Ethics in Sports at the University of Central Florida started tracking the number. — The Associated Press

Bikes and birthdays REDMOND — undreds of BMX racers converged on the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center this past weekend for the USA BMX Great Northwest Nationals. They traveled from locations across western North America, including Oregon, Washington, California, British Columbia, Idaho, Nevada and Arizona. They raced and raced and raced on the dirt track that occupied the arena floor of the Hooker Creek Event AMANDA Center throughout the MILES three-day event, which concluded Sunday. Plenty of them tumbled to the dirt on the three banked turns and numerous rollers, while some rode well enough to wheel away with tall purple trophies in hand. Dozens of riders finished first in their classes, including several Central Oregonians: Redmond’s Taylor Stephens (USAC junior development boys class, Friday, and 15 expert class, Saturday), and Bend residents Sunny Harmeson (41-45 girls cruiser, Friday), Christian Klampe (9 novice, Friday and Sunday), Timmy Richards (10 novice, Saturday) and Gene Nelson (41 and over inter, Saturday). And, in at least two cases, they celebrated birthdays. Maya Jones, 6, and Ken Botterill, 70, are pretty much on opposite ends of the age spectrum, especially when it comes to BMX (bicycle motocross) racing. Maya was not the youngest rider at the Great Northwest Nationals, but she was among their ranks. Botterill may well have been the oldest competitor. But for both of them this weekend, age was just a number. “The more you do it, the better you get,” said Botterill of BMX racing. Botterill, a retired tugboat captain from Chilliwack, British Columbia, followed in his son Dean’s pedal strokes into BMX in 2008 after retiring the year before. He got

Baylor’s sanctions a blow to women’s sports By Sally Jenkins The Washington Post

About the event What: 2012 USA BMX Great Northwest Nationals; part of the USA BMX National Race Series, which is staged annually at sites across the U.S. and Canada Who: Primarily amateur riders of all ages and a few professionals When and where: Staged this past weekend at the Hooker Creek Event Center at the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center, Redmond
started, he explained Saturday, “just to be more fit. I was looking at maybe getting diabetes if I didn’t start doing more exercise, so that’s why I did it.” See Bikes / D6

f all the crackups by coaches last week, one was more disappointing than all the others — and it wasn’t Bobby Petrino going “Easy Rider” into a ditch after losing control of his gearshift. We’ve seen things like that before. For some reason, the more disheartening crash was that of Baylor women’s basketball coach Kim Mulkey, embarrassed by NCAA sanctions fresh off her national championship. Maybe that’s because women’s basketball is comparatively clean. You hate to see the standards lowered in a sport that still actually has some. Just a week after winning a title, Mulkey accepted penalties for an assortment of recruiting violations, most prominently with her 6-foot8-inch center, Brittney Griner. Make no mistake: Baylor’s 40-0 season was less the result of improprieties than of Mulkey’s tireless work, strategic expertise and a vivid, charismatic personality that her players want to follow. But that’s why the list of petty abuses she committed is so aggravating. Mulkey is positioned as the new standard-bearer and bright coaching star of women’s basketball — a role she clearly wants, judging by her glittering outfits — but she just dipped the flag in the mud. The women’s game is at an interesting juncture: Coaches and administrators are trying to figure out how to grow it in profitability without emulating the corruptions of the men’s game. They can legitimately argue that their audience is devoted — a reported 4.2 million viewers watched Baylor beat Notre Dame for the title — precisely because the sport has a purer brand. Players are still real students who graduate at high rates; coaches are still real teachers as opposed to shysters; and the athletic scholarship is still meaningful, as opposed to a one-year inconvenience. The question is: How long it will stay that way? The answer is up to Mulkey. That’s not a light or facetious statement. See Baylor / D5

S B • Beavers drub ArkansasPine Bluff: Hot-hitting freshman Michael Conforto went four for four and drove in four runs Sunday to lead Oregon State to a 16-1 nonconference victory over Arkansas-Pine Bluff at Goss Stadium in Corvallis. Conforto has driven in 14 runs over the past five games and has a team-high 50 RBIs for the season. Joey Matthews and Dylan Davis had three hits each for the Beavers, who collected a season-high 18 hits while completing a threegame sweep of the Golden Lions (6-28-1). Taylor Starr was the winning pitcher for Oregon State (23-11), which continues nonconference play today at the University of Portland. Game time at Joe Etzel Field is 3 p.m. • Ducks drop series finale at Stanford: No. 16 Oregon’s bid for a three-game Pac-12 Conference sweep of No. 6 Stanford came up short Sunday, as the Ducks lost 4-2 at Sunken Diamond in Palo Alto, Calif. The Cardinal (21-10 overall, 5-7 Pac-12) scored two runs in the second inning against Oregon starter Brando Tessar and led the rest of the way. J.J. Altobelli had two of the Ducks’ seven hits and knocked in a run for Oregon (24-10, 10-5), which now is in a three-way tie for first place in the Pac-12 standings with UCLA and Arizona. The Ducks are at home this evening for a nonconference game against Arkansas-Pine Bluff; game time at PK Park is 6 p.m. • Giants closer’s season likely at an end: Brian Wilson says his season is likely over. The San Francisco Giants’ bearded and boisterous closer said before Sunday’s series finale against the Pittsburgh Pirates that he will probably have elbowreconstruction surgery, ending his season with only a save. An MRI showed the structural damage. Wilson says he will seek at least one other opinion and probably two, including from the renowned orthopedist Dr. James Andrews, who performs Tommy John elbow-reconstruction surgeries.
Prep lacrosse • Bend United falls to Roseburg: Katie Alhart scored three goals and Trinity Tankersley scored two, but Bend United lost 9-6 to Roseburg in an Oregon Girls Lacrosse Association South League match Sunday at Bend’s Summit High School.

Next weekend, Bend United plays host on Saturday to two teams from Eugene — Marist, at 10 a.m., and Sheldon, at 2 p.m. Both matches will be played at Summit High.

Second-seeded Kerber broke the Dane’s serve three times in each set to earn the title in 1 hour, 38 minutes. Wozniacki had sought her third straight title in her home tournament, but couldn’t match the 24-year-old German, breaking only twice in each set.
Horse racing • National can never be risk-free, says racing chief: The head of British horse racing insists the Grand National can never be risk-free and warned against any knee-jerk reaction in the wake of two horses dying for the second straight year in the world’s most grueling jumps race. Animal welfare groups have renewed calls for drastic change to be made to the format of the event following pre-race favorite Synchronised and According to Pete being put down after sustaining injuries in an incident-packed 2012 edition. A reduction in the size of the field or withdrawing some of the more dangerous fences — including the much-feared Becher’s Brook — are some of the suggestions made by critics, with others saying the race should be banned entirely.
Olympics • Talks continue on Saudi women at Olympics: The president of the International Olympic Committee says it is still talking with Saudi Arabia about sending women to the London Games. That news comes after a recent report that the conservative Muslim country’s national Olympic committee resists the idea. Jacques Rogge’s statement in a news conference Sunday came 10 days after a Saudi newspaper reported that national Olympic committee president Prince Nawaf does “not approve” of sending female athletes. Rogge says “we’re still discussing (this) with our colleague” on the Saudi national Olympic committee. He describes it as “an ongoing discussion but it is a bit too soon to come to conclusions.” — From wire reports

Portland Trail Blazers guard Wes Matthews, left, drives to the basket against Sacramento guard Marcus Thornton during the first quarter of Sunday’s game in Sacramento, Calif. The Kings won 104-103.
Late jumper lifts Kings over Blazers The Associated Press SACRAMENTO, Calif. — For one day at least, the off-court acrimony over a decision not to build a new arena was put aside by Sacramento Kings fans. Despite anger over Friday’s announcement by Kings ownership that the arena plans were shelved, a nearsellout crowd showed up at aging Power Balance Pavilion on Sunday and was sent home happy by Marcus Thornton. Thornton scored 20 points and made the winning jumper with 3.4 seconds left, lifting the struggling Kings to a 104-103 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers. The Kings rallied from a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter to snap a seven-game skid with only their third win in 15 games. It was the first home game in Sacramento since the Maloof family announced at the NBA owners meetings that they were backing out of a proposed downtown arena plan in Sacramento. Since announcing their decision, the Maloofs have been under sharp criticism from Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson, local business leaders and angered fans, who still showed up for the mid-afternoon game. Attendance was 16,012. “We had a few (fans) that may have voiced their opinion, but once the game started going and became an excitable game, I think they fell back to the side,” Kings coach Keith Smart said. “People get upset, but they are die-hard Kings fans. They like Kings basketball, it’s just that they are a little heart-broken, like everyone is right now.” A reliable clutch shooter this season, Thornton said he was Smart’s choice to take the winning shot. Following a timeout, Thornton came off a pick from DeMarcus Cousins and was surprisingly wide open. He swished a 17-footer off an inbound pass. Portland’s Raymond Felton raced up court and missed a desperation shot from halfcourt at the buzzer. “I was stunned how open I was,” said Thornton, who went four of five from the floor in the fourth quarter for eight points. “I got to my spot, got the space I needed, and shot it. Thank God it went in.” Cousins scored 19 of his 23 points in the second half and also had seven rebounds. The second-year center had been in a recent scoring funk the past six games after going for a career-high 41 points in an April 3 loss to Phoenix. “It took a while, but it feels good to get a win,” Cousins said. “Even with all the drama going on, our fans came out and supported us, stayed engaged in the game and showed their loyalty toward us. So we’re thankful to have them and we love them for it.” Tyreke Evans also had 20 points for the Kings, and Isaiah Thomas had 18 points and eight assists. Wes Matthews made a careerhigh eight three-pointers and scored 31 points for the Trail Blazers, who made 16 of their 32 three-point at-
tempts. His biggest shot appeared to have given the Blazers the victory. After a steal by Terrence Williams gave the Kings the ball, Cousins drove the baseline on Joel Przybilla and made a difficult left-handed shot from close range. However, Matthews quickly answered, getting free of Francisco Garcia for a corner threepointer, giving the Blazers a 103-102 lead with 5.8 seconds left. “I wasn’t going to pass it out, I had to take that shot,” said Matthews, who made seven second-half three-pointers, a Sacramento arena record for a half by an opposing player. “I didn’t really want to take a shot as early as I did, but Garcia jumped on my right hand. My favorite shot is a step-back so he gave it to me.” Felton scored 19 points, Nicolas Batum had 14, and JJ Hickson added 10 points and 13 rebounds for Portland.

The Associated Press PHILADELPHIA — Fists were flying faster than shots on goal. Sidney Crosby and Claude Giroux even became knotted in the pushing, pulling and shoving, a pair of superstars willing to mix it up to prove which team was the baddest on the ice and the scoreboard. The Penguins and Flyers talked trash, laid the smack down, and played one wildly entertaining game. The result was still the same. The Flyers rallied from another early deficit for a decisive Game 3 victory that placed them on the brink of an improbable sweep. Danny Briere, Matt Read and Max Talbot each scored two goals to lead Philadelphia to an 8-4 victory over Pittsburgh on Sunday in a fight-filled game in the Eastern Conference quarterfinal. Giroux and Wayne Simmonds also scored to help the Flyers take a 3-0 lead in the combustible best-of-seven series. Game 4 is Wednesday night in Philadelphia. The Flyers scored 20 goals in the first three games. “Our goal is to finish it right away,” Briere said. The goals might be hard to find on a highlight reel. This one was all about the brawls more suitable for a UFC card. Three players were tossed in the first period. There was a rare fight between superstars when Crosby squared off against Giroux. No one got the better end of that scrap. But by the end, Flyers fans serenaded the Penguins with booming chants of “You can’t beat us!” “All three games were kind of weird games,” Giroux said. “I guess I like weird games because we always finish by winning.” Jordan Staal and James Neal scored twice for a Penguins team pushed to the limit by its hated, intrastate rival. Marc-Andre Fleury was benched after allowing six goals in two periods. He has allowed a whopping 17 goals in the first three games. Coach Dan Bylsma said Fleury would start, “the next four games.” Hard to imagine at this rate, especially with NHL scoring leader Evgeni Malkin (109 points) yet to score a goal for the Penguins. The Flyers played a postseason video that billed their run as the “Fight to the Cup.” They never expected a first period that would have left those old Broad Street Bullies smiling. Each team had their top defenseman — Pittsburgh’s Kris Letang and Philadelphia’s Kimmo Timonen — tossed. So was Penguins forward Arron Asham. But the scene ripped straight out of the pages of Ripley’s came when Giroux and Crosby went at it against the backboard. “In the end, that’s really playoff hockey,” Flyers coach Peter Laviolette said. “A couple of the best players in the world dropping the gloves going at it. Would I rather have G keep his gloves on? Sure. But when he’s fighting Sidney Crosby, that’s playoff hockey. That’s this series.” In other games on Sunday: Predators. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 Red Wings. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 2 DETROIT — Shea Weber turned boos into silence with a goal early in the first period and Nashville held on to beat Detroit to take a 2-1 lead in the Western Conference series.

MOTOR SPORTS ROUNDUP
COLLEGE BASEBALL
Social network helps coaches find players By Eric Olson The Associated Press
OMAHA, Neb. — College baseball coaches have looked nearly everywhere for players. Now, they can try somewhere else — cyberspace. From behind their desktop computers, or on their mobile devices, coaches are expanding their pool of potential recruits on a networking site akin to the popular LinkedIn for business professionals. A coach in need of a power-hitting first baseman, a fleet outfielder or a hard-throwing left-hander can go to FieldLevel and put out the word. Chances are that within hours he’ll hear back from high school and juniorcollege coaches eager to play matchmaker. FieldLevel has gone from the brainchild of a couple of University of Southern California undergraduates five years ago to a tool that has gained popularity since winning “Best in Show” at the American Baseball Coaches Association trade show in January. For a decade there have been sites and software that help coaches organize their recruiting efforts and keep track of prospects. FieldLevel is the first site where coaches can connect and help each other out. Appalachian State recruiting coordinator Josh Jordan sent out a message this spring that he’s desperate for right-handed pitchers who can throw at least 89 mph. Within 48 hours, Jordan had received profiles of 14 junior-college righties, and he said about seven are legitimate prospects. “I would have never known about them otherwise,” Jordan said. “We’ve got budget constraints like most everybody. It’s not like we have scouts and national cross-checkers who can get on a plane and find guys in California.” Santa Monica, Calif.-based FieldLevel has signed up almost 1,000 coaches from colleges, high school and club programs since launching in July 2008. That includes coaches from more than 260 junior colleges and 100-plus Division I programs. Brenton Callahan and Kai Sato, USC classmates who graduated in 2007, came up with the idea for a senior project in the Lloyd Greif Center for Entrepreneurial Studies. Callahan, a baseball player, and Sato, a lacrosse player, attended small boarding schools and had difficulty attracting attention from college recruiters. “We were both under-recruited and felt the personal pains of going through the process,” Callahan said. “The problem came down to one thing: our coaches didn’t know anybody.” Both accepted academic scholarships to USC, with Callahan walking on as a catcher and Sato playing on a club lacrosse team. In developing their business plan, Callahan and Sato talked to lots of coaches and found out that their biggest challenge was coming up with an efficient way to find players. Coaches typically are inundated with unsolicited emails and voice mails, and highlight DVDs often sit on their desks collecting dust. In old-school recruiting, thick manila folders and loose scraps of paper containing information on prospects often are strewn about offices. Taking their cue from a host of popular social networking sites, Callahan and Sato looked for a way to connect coaches who wanted to promote their players to coaches who were looking for them. Their concept was named 2007’s top business plan in the USC business school. A group of California investors headed by Reid Dennis provided seed money. Callahan is now chief executive and Sato is chief operating officer. They plan to gradually transition FieldLevel into other sports. “Everything needs to be built around the coaches. They are the decision-makers,” Sato said. Once a coach subscribes to FieldLevel, a member of the company’s nine-person staff vets him to make sure he is who he claims to be. If he’s legitimate, he can begin communicating with others in the network. Coaches, typically at the high school and junior-college level, put out information on their players. If a coach is interested in recruiting a specific player, he’s able to gain access to that player’s contact information. Callahan said the information is secure and that no one outside the network can access it. Basic FieldLevel service is free. Add-on features can bring the cost up to about $100 a month, Sato said. Similar to other recruiting software, FieldLevel offers safeguards that warn a coach if he is about to commit an NCAA violation, such as making too many phone calls or sending too many text messages to a prospect. Also, a FieldLevel app can be put on the phones of all coaching staff members so each coach knows what the others are doing in recruiting. A number of power programs use FieldLevel, but the teams that might benefit most are the ones that are lesser known. “Everybody knows LSU, Florida, Miami and Texas,” Appalachian State’s Jordan said. “It, to me, isn’t as valuable to those programs as it is to Appalachian State or a Southern Mississippi. Players may have heard our name, but don’t know much about us. Once you reach out and connect with them through their coaches, they start to do more research and it becomes possible for you to get those kids.”

Will Power jumps off of his car after winning the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach Sunday in Long Beach, Calif.
Power victorious at Long Beach The Associated Press LONG BEACH, Calif. — Will Power kept Penske Racing perfect this season by picking his way through the field Sunday at Long Beach to win his second consecutive IndyCar Series race. Power was one of the 11 Chevrolet drivers penalized for changing the engines as a precautionary measure when teams reported to the Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach. The punishment was 10 spots on the starting grid, so Power, who qualified second, rolled off in 12th at the start Sunday. One race after driving from ninth to first to win at Barber, the Australian did it again. “After last week, you can never say never, but I thought it would be very tough to win the race,” Power said. “We worked hard, we got a penalty and we overcame it. I’ve been trying to win here for four years.” Penske won the season-opening race with Helio Castroneves, and Power has won the last two to make the team a perfect 3-0 on the season. The victory also gave Power the points lead. In the end, despite the penalties, Chevrolet drivers claimed eight of the top-10 finishing spots. After picking his way through
traffic, Power still had to hold off hard-charging Simon Pagenuad to preserve the win — Penske’s first at Long Beach since 2001. Pagenaud made it close, but traffic hurt his chances, and the rookie settled for a career-best finish of second for Honda. Takuma Sato seemed headed to a third-place finish, but was spun on the last lap by Ryan Hunter-Reay. IndyCar assessed a 30-second penalty on Hunter-Reay, so third place went to James Hinchcliffe in his first career podium. It was a messy race from the start as rookie Josef Newgarden’s aggressive move on leader Dario Franchitti backfired. Newgarden was moved to the front row after the Chevrolet’s were penalized, and the 21-year-old joked after Saturday’s qualifying that he might try to pass Franchitti immediately because the four-time champion wouldn’t be expecting such a bold move. Newgarden backed up his words, and tried to get past Franchitti on the outside as they headed into the first turn. There seemed to be some contact between the two, and Newgarden’s car sailed into the tire barrier, ending his race without a single completed lap.
“I just got touched on the exit, went right to the wall. Maybe it wasn’t the right move,” Newgarden said. “I thought I had a good run on him and got a good jump on him. Maybe I probably should have just — it’s a tough call.” Also on Sunday: Hight races to 4th straight victory CONCORD, N.C. — Robert Hight became the fifth Funny Car driver to win four straight races, beating John Force, Cruz Pedregon and Ron Capps in the final of the NHRA Four-Wide Nationals. Hight had a 4.076-second run at 314.83 mph in his John Force Racing Ford Mustang in the unique event featuring racing in four lanes. Spencer Massey won the Top Fuel competition, and Greg Anderson topped the Pro Stock field. Rosberg wins F1’s Chinese GP SHANGHAI — Mercedes driver Nico Rosberg won the Chinese Grand Prix for his first career Formula One victory after starting from the pole. Rosberg won by a staggering 20.6 seconds over McLaren’s Jenson Button after making just two pits stops and managing to hold off the rest of the field on worn tires. Lewis Hamilton was third, followed by Mark Webber and Sebastian Vettel.
GOLF ROUNDUP
Pettersson wins RBC Heritage The Associated Press HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. — Save the fitness trailer for the rest of the PGA Tour, Carl Petterson knows he’s fine the way he is. Petterson used another fast start for a 2-under 69 and a five-shot victory over Zach Johnson on Sunday at the RBC Heritage. Pettersson has never fit the tapered, powerful build made popular by Tiger Woods and copied by scores of young players. The one time the 34-year-old Pettersson did slim down and lost 30 pounds, he also lost his winning golf swing. “Ultimately, just cause you don’t look like an athlete doesn’t mean you’re not an athlete,” Pettersson said. “We’re not running a marathon out here, we’re walking 18 holes.” And no one walked them better this week at Harbour Town Golf Links than Pettersson. He finished at 14 under to win his fifth PGA Tour title and first since 2010. Pettersson also tied countryman Jesper Parnevik for most ever on tour by a Swedish player. “It was great,” said Pettersson, now a U.S. citizen. “I didn’t want to put too much pressure on myself, so I kind of downplayed the whole thing. But getting off to a birdie on one was great.” Pettersson, second in the Houston Open two weeks ago, earned $1,026,000. Top-ranked Luke Donald needed to finish eighth or better to retain his ranking, but tied for 37th and will fall behind Rory McIlroy. Johnson shot a 70 to finish second at 9 under, while Colt Knost’s chances for his first PGA Tour title fell apart with a 74. He was third at 8 under. Kevin Stadler (68) and Billy Mayfair (69) tied for fourth at 6 under. Two-time Heritage winner Boo Weekley had his worst round of the week, 73, to tie for sixth with Matt Bettencourt (69). Masters winner Bubba Watson

and most of the world’s best took the week off to recover from the year’s first major. No one, though, was catching Pettersson in this one. He rolled in a 24-footer on No. 1 to get things started with a birdie. He added another birdie, from 16 feet on the par-3 fourth hole, then two-putted from 40 feet on the par-5 fifth to go up by four shots. When Johnson took bogey at No. 10, Pettersson was five strokes in front and cruising. Pettersson used a run of five straight birdies on the front side Saturday to gain the lead. He was 13 under on the front nine the four days. “I like all the holes,” he said. “I don’t have one hole on the front nine where I feel awkward over the tee shot or second shot.” He also didn’t feel too bad on the greens, needing just 104 putts over
D5
72 holes. Knost was on top after Thursday and Friday and felt good as part of the final pairing. But those nerves Knost acknowledged Saturday were apparently back again in the final round. He missed an 8-foot putt for par and made bogey on No. 1 for a second straight round to drop three shots behind Pettersson. And just like Saturday, Knost fought back with a birdie on the second hole — he made eagle there in the third round — to close in on Pettersson. However, Knost’s chances ended a hole later with a horrible drive out of bounds left on No. 3 that led to a triple-bogey seven and left him five shots behind and out of contention. When Knost flew his approach to the 12th green way left, he simply stood in the fairway and stared straight ahead, hands on hips, in disbelief. “I hit it good this weekend, but the one swing (on No. 3) got me in trouble,” Knost said. “I made 7 and that was kind of it.” In other events on Sunday: Allen gets second Champions title LUTZ, Fla. — Michael Allen won the Encompass Insurance Pro-Am for his second Champions Tour title, closing with a 3-under 68 for a three-stroke victory over Kenny Perry. Allen finished the three-day event at 12 under. He took a fiveshot advantage into the final round, tying the tournament record for the largest 36-hole margin. Oosthuizen takes Malaysian Open KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — Louis Oosthuizen won the Malaysian Open, a week after losing a playoff to Bubba Watson in the Masters. The South African completed a 3-under 69 in the raindelayed third round, then closed with a 68 for a three-stroke victory over Scotland’s Stephen Gallacher. The 2010 British Open champion finished at 17-under 271 on Kuala Lumpur Golf and Country Club’s West Course.
Continued from D1 The answer really is up to her, personally. Because Mulkey is at the top of the game, every other coach in the country will now imitate her. All of her peers will treat the rules the way she treats them. Here is how Mulkey treated them: According to the NCAA report, both the Baylor women’s and men’s coaches made hundreds of impermissible contacts with recruits through texts and phone calls. Mulkey claimed the calls and texts were not intentional but a failure to accurately keep her phone logs, a contention at which every coach in the country will laugh out loud. There is another situation in the NCAA report that illustrates how Mulkey treated the rules. She used her position as a parent to make improper contact with the Griner family when her daughter played with Griner on the same Texas AAU summer team, DFW Elite. Mulkey’s defense is that she was in a difficult situation as both a mother and a coach, and that’s a fact. But here are some other facts: In 2006, at about the same time she was cultivating the Griners at summer games, Mulkey hired DFW Elite coach Damion McKinney to her staff. McKinney is the assistant who made many of the improper calls and texts detailed by the NCAA, more than 300 of them in 2011 to a current DFW Elite coach. As noted by ESPN’s Mechelle Voepel, six players on Baylor’s championship roster come from DFW Elite, including four of five starters: Griner, Odyssey Sims, Kimetria Hayden and Jordan Madden. Mulkey is hardly the first coach to cultivate an AAU recruiting pipeline, and by itself that is not illegal under NCAA rules. But let’s be clear: The violations at Baylor were not simply unintentional bookkeeping errors, but rather part of an overaggressive pattern and loss of self-restraint. And it looks an awful lot like what goes on in the men’s game. Granted, these are not offenses on the level of slush funds, but Mulkey gained a competitive advantage. A very good coach, Gail Goestenkors, recently resigned from the University of Texas in part because she could not make recruiting inroads instate and lost too many players to Baylor. It should be no consolation to Mulkey that her penalties are light. In a way, that’s the worst part. The NCAA accepted Baylor’s self-imposed punishment: Mulkey was stripped of two scholarships and forbidden from recruiting off campus this July. Which will hardly dissuade other coaches from employing the same tactics. What are a couple of lost scholarships and a month off the road compared with 40-0 and a national championship banner, with another one likely next season? The conclusion is that it is entirely worth it to cheat. This not to say the women’s game did not already have some impurities. There are plenty of infractions and improprieties. But for the most part the water is still drinkable. It would be nice to keep it that way, and not watch it become another toxic dump. There is reason to think Mulkey is hurt and discomfited by the sanctions. She cuts a proud figure. “I believe strongly in following NCAA rules and will always try to do so in the future,” she said in a statement through the school. In every other respect she has been a credit to the sport, winner of a championship and an Olympic gold medal as a player at Louisiana Tech, winner of two more banners as a coach in 2005 and 2012, a superb teacher of an unprecedented talent in Griner, and the leader of a second wave of coaches seeking to build on the huge successes and commercial foundations laid down by my friend Pat Summitt at Tennessee and by Geno Auriemma at Connecticut. Anyone who cares about the women’s game wants Mulkey to become everything she should be — not just the next possessor of multiple banners, but preserver of what integrity the game still has. That means embracing a certain reality: She has extra responsibility to do things the right way. If we eventually look over our shoulders and ask when the women’s game went down the slippery slope, we’ll look at this day, the day the reigning national champion went on probation, as the starting point.

THE BULLETIN • MONDAY, APRIL 16, 2012
Bikes Continued from D1 He celebrated his birthday on Friday and noted that he is currently in excellent health. Young Maya also followed a relative into the sport. In her case, it was her older brother, Wyatt, 14, who also competed in Central Oregon over the weekend. She picked up BMX just last fall and had a bit of a rough introduction to the 6-yearold novice class on Saturday — her birthday — when she fell to the track in her first moto, or heat, of the day after another rider knocked one of her tires. The day before, in Friday’s pre-race competition, Maya competed against 5-year-olds, but the birthday bumped her up an age division midcompetition. “I crashed, and my elbow was starting to bleed,” said Maya, a kindergartner who lives in Springfield, of her Saturday spill. But she proved she was a tough birthday girl by getting back on her bike and finishing her race. And the incident did little to dampen her birthday celebration, which included a birthday cake and candy at the arena. “It was fun because it was very special to me, and I wish

it could happen pretty much every day,” Maya says of competing on her birthday. Botterill was a bit less enthusiastic about his milestone. “It’s not that big a thing for me, I don’t think,” he noted of his 70th birthday. Botterill did mark the occasion by winning the men’s 61
and over cruiser class in Friday’s pre-race competition. He placed first in one of his three motos and second in the other two to win on accumulated points, which is how classes with only a few riders were decided. In classes with larger field sizes, riders progressed through rounds and up to
eight qualified for the “main event,” in which final placements were decided at the end of each day. Also at stake were district points and, for riders who advanced to the main event in their class, points that contribute to their national ranking. Points probably were not much on Maya’s mind over the weekend. She was too busy eating birthday cake and standing up at the starting gate all on her own — rather than having her dad assist by holding her bike steady — for the very first time. Something that is pretty clear, though, is that she has already given this BMX thing quite a bit of thought. “You should stand up and try your very best, and you should try to get first place and get a trophy,” Maya offered. “Most importantly, you should stand up in the gate and pedal down so you can make a big turn, so you can get all the way over there so you can pass everybody. “And if you’re in last, you can pass everybody, go around them, and you can make the finish line.” Out of the mouths of babes, words to race by. — Reporter: 541-383-0393, amiles@bendbulletin.com.

Road cycling • New routes for CCC: Organizers of the Cascade Cycling Classic have announced two new time trial courses among a few changes for this year’s event, scheduled for July 17-22. The race-opening prologue time trial will take place on a short, relatively flat loop near Tetherow Golf course in southwest Bend. The
following day’s McKenzie Pass road race stage will remain the same, while the 33-kilometer time trial on July 19 will be based out of Prineville along the Crooked River. The out-and-back route is the same one that will be used later this summer for the USA Cycling Masters Road National Championships. The time trial route had been staged in prior years on Skyliners Road in west Bend.
The third stage’s Cascade Lakes road race will return, though this year the men will start and finish at Mount Bachelor, riding two laps around the mountain in between. In prior years, the men’s field rode from Bend to the mountain along part of the route. The criterium and race-concluding Awbrey Butte circuit race stages will also return in familiar form. —Bulletin staff report

Tennis Continued from D1 In spring 2010, Parr’s freshman year, he debated between going out for golf, a sport he had grown up playing, and turning out for tennis, a sport he occasionally played with friends. He chose the courts over the links and had a solid but fairly unspectacular season with the Storm’s junior varsity. “I wasn’t that great, but I had the ability to hit the ball back,” Parr recalls. Parr is part of an athletic family that includes his older sister Kristen, a senior three-sport standout at Summit. While Scott had grown up skiing and played soccer, golf and basketball when he was younger, something about tennis hooked Parr. After his freshman season, he entered a couple of tournaments in the summer and began playing more. A lot more. “Once school started (sophomore year), I got invited to play at a clinic at the Athletic Club (of Bend),” Parr says. “I started playing five days a week, all through the fall and winter.” Just as important as Parr’s frequency on the court was the caliber of his competition. “He put in the work, tons of hours of hitting, he took lessons and he started hitting with the good kids,” Cordell says. “We’ve got a community of really talented tennis players in Bend. If you can get in that group and start hitting with them, they’ll just pull you along. You figure out how to win points against them.” In February, an excited Parr sent Cordell a Facebook message letting him know he was stoked about the upcoming season and that he had improved his tennis game since the previous spring. “After I sent that message,” Parr says with a bit of a sheepish grin, “I realized he probably gets about 10 of those a year.” “That’s awesome to hear,” Cordell remembers as his response. “But I get that quite a bit. But we got out that first day hitting and it was, ‘Oh, he’s a different player. He put in the work.’ ” Tall and long with a big left-handed serve, Parr was born to play doubles tennis. Cordell teamed him last season with Sterling Dillingham, a senior who had played varsity since his freshman year. “Sterling was a longtime super-solid varsity player,” Cordell says about Dillingham, who had qualified for the state doubles tournament in 2009 with thenpartner Conor Hegewald. “It was a perfect fit.” Playing No. 2 doubles for the Storm, Dillingham and
Parr took third at the Class 5A Special District 1 meet before going 2-2 at state. “Sophomore year was amazing,” Parr says. “We went to the finals at the Jesuit Tournament. We won state as a team. Sterling and I took third at districts and went to state to complete the year.” “I have a lineup for the next year going into the season, and he (Parr) threw everything off for me — in a great way,” Cordell says. “To go from JV to state in one year, I’ve never seen that before.” Parr’s story is even more remarkable considering the limitations he has with his right arm due to a condition known as Erb’s palsy. Parr explains that when he was born, the doctor had to pull on his head to complete the delivery. The trauma resulted in Erb’s palsy, a type of paralysis in the upper arm. “I was a large baby and I basically got stuck with just my head out,” Parr says. “The doctor had to pull really hard on my head. … It basically destroyed some nerves in my shoulder. I lost a lot of movement in my arm.” Today, Parr’s right arm is noticeably smaller than his powerful left side. He cannot lift his right arm up all the way and has little if no power from his right hand. “When I started playing tennis I had a one-handed backhand,” Parr says. “I just couldn’t snap my (right) wrist. But last fall I realized if I just held on to the racket with my right arm, I could let my left wrist do the work. It’s not painful to move my (right) wrist, it just can’t do it on it’s own.” Parr, though, refuses to let his disability define him. With his nasty first serve and aggressive net play, the last thing onlookers notice when watching Parr on the court — if they notice it at all — is his right arm. Even members of his own team sometimes are unaware. At least once a teammate has tried to perform an elaborate high-five with him not realizing that Parr is unable to fully raise his arm. “It’s been a challenge with my right arm,” Parr says. “But I’ve found ways around it with everything my whole life. … It’s a big disability and I could use it as an excuse for a lot of things. “But,” Parr adds, “I’ve always told myself that no matter how bad it gets, I can do just as well as everyone else — if not better.” — Reporter: 541-383-0305, beastes@bendbulletin.com.

NOTICE FOR PROPERTIES INCLUDING ONE OR MORE DWELLING UNITS: NOTICE TO RESIDENTIAL TENANTS. The property in which you are living is in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale is scheduled for May 22, 2012. The date of this sale may be postponed. Unless the lender that is foreclosing on this property is paid before the sale date, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. After the sale, the new owner is required to provide you with contact information and notice that the sale took place. The following information applies to you only if you are a bona fide tenant occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a bona fide residential tenant. If the foreclosure sale goes through, the new owner will have the right to require you to move out. Before the new owner can require you to move, the new owner must provide you with written notice that specifies the date by which you must move out. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the new owner can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. PROTECTION FROM EVICTION. IF YOU ARE A BONA FIDE TENANT OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CONTINUE LIVING IN THIS PROPERTY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE FOR: • THE REMAINDER OF YOUR FIXED TERM LEASE, IF YOU HAVE A FIXED TERM LEASE; OR • AT LEAST 90 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ARE GIVEN A WRITTEN TERMINATION NOTICE. If the new owner wants to move in and use this property as a primary residence, the new owner can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even though you have a fixed term lease with more than 90 days left. You must be provided with at least 90 days’ written notice after the foreclosure sale before you can be required to move. A bona fide tenant is a residential tenant who is not the borrower (property owner) or a child, spouse or parent of the borrower, and whose rental agreement: • Is the result of an arm’s length transaction; • Requires the payment of rent that is not substantially less than fair market rent for the property, unless the rent is reduced or subsidized due to a federal, state or local subsidy; and • Was entered into prior to the date of the foreclosure sale. ABOUT YOUR TENANCY BETWEEN NOW AND THE FORECLOSURE SALE. RENT YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD OR UNTIL A COURT TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE. SECURITY DEPOSIT You may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord as provided in ORS 90.367. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR TENANCY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The new owner that buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out after 90 days or at the end of your fixed term lease. After the sale, you should receive a written notice informing you that the sale took place and giving you the new owner’s name and contact information. You should contact the new owner if you would like to stay. If the new owner accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the new owner becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise: • You do not owe rent; • The new owner is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf; and • You must move out by the date the new owner specifies in a notice to you. The new owner may offer to pay your moving expenses and any other costs or amounts you and the new owner agree on in exchange for your agreement to leave the premises in less than 90 days or before your fixed term lease expires. You should speak with a lawyer to fully understand your rights before making any decisions regarding your tenancy. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR DWELLING UNIT WITHOUT FIRST GIVING YOU WRITTEN NOTICE AND GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU SHOULD CONSULT A LAWYER. If you believe you need legal assistance, contact the Oregon State Bar and ask for the lawyer referral service.
