A few more foreclosure protections on the way

‘I believed in Ashton’

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

SALEM — By now, the stories of those facing foreclosure are familiar: the endless tales of lost paperwork, contradictory advice, and homeowners who believe they are working toward modifying loans only to find their banks have foreclosed on them.

On July 11, new legislation will go into effect aimed at changing the story.

Not all homeowners will keep IN their homes, SALEM but most will have a better grasp of their options.

The goal, said Keith Dubanevich, chief of staff and associate attorney general with the Oregon Department of Justice, is to help people “understand what they are facing.”

The legislation ends what’s known as “dual track,” in which a homeowner can be foreclosed on despite being in the midst of renegotiating a loan.

If a homeowner works with a housing counselor, banks would be required to go through mediation with the homeowner.

Brief relief, long-term questions for students

Congress may have averted a doubling of interest rates on millions of new federal student loans, but the fix is only for a year, leaving students on edge over whether they’ll face a similar increase next summer.

“It’s scary,” said Faith Nebergall, a student at Indiana University whose loans currently total upward of $20,000.

“And it’s unfair to kind of be kept in the dark as to how much money we owe.”

Under the agreement, interest rates on new subsidized Stafford loans will remain at 3.4 percent. That’s estimated to save 7.4 million students about $1,000 each on the average loan, which is usually paid off over 10 or more years.

ot old enough for a driver’s license and without a bike of his own, young Ashton Eaton had to find another way to get around when he wanted to visit friends across town. So he ran.

“I didn’t have to, but I just wanted to get there faster, so I would take shortcuts on the side of Pilot Butte,” Eaton, who spent his teen years in Bend, recalled in an interview last month. “I basically ran from Costco to Highway 97 and back (about four miles round trip), sometimes at night. I would always be outside running or doing something active.”

In his even younger years, as a grade-schooler in La Pine, he wanted to measure how far he could jump. So he placed sticks on the ground outdoors and tried to jump from one to the other.

“If I cleared them, then I would move them apart more and try again,” Eaton said. “Yes, long jump training without knowing it.”

The early running and jumping paid off.

Last Saturday during the U.S. Olympic Track and Field Team Trials at Hayward Field in Eugene, Eaton, now 24, set a new world record in the 10event decathlon to earn the title “World’s Greatest Athlete.” He is now the clear favorite to win the gold medal in the decathlon at the upcoming London Olympics.

Just after Eaton crossed the finish line in the competition’s final event, the 1,500 meters, to win the decathlon and claim the world record, he was embraced on the track by his mother, Roz Eaton, and his fiancee, Brianne Theisen.

THE SUPREME COURT

An end to old left-right divides?

By Adam Liptak New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — The last week of the Supreme Court’s term told one kind of story, of a deeply divided court delivering historic victories to the Obama administration in immigration and health care cases. Those decisions obscured a different story about the work of the court, one that unfolded over the last nine months.

A look back at the term reveals that the court, which has had a reputation for predictable ideological splits, has entered a new phase. This term, it often worked with striking unanimity and assertiveness to review the actions of the other branches of government.

Partly for this reason, its relationship to the Obama administration has often been a distinctly adversarial one.

When the court was divided, as it was in the immigration and health care cases, its voting often did not track the usual patterns. There is good evidence that Chief Justice John Roberts has worked hard to insulate his institution from the charge that it has political motivations, an accusation that it is especially vulnerable to because the court’s five more conservative members were appointed by Republican presidents and its four more liberal ones by Democrats.

It was not until Justice Elena Kagan joined the court in 2010 that the justices’ ideological positions largely tracked those of the presidents who appointed them. Under Roberts, the court has had substantial turnover.

In the earlier versions of the Roberts court, Justices David Souter and John Paul Stevens, both appointed by Republican presidents, generally voted with the court’s liberal wing.

In the wake of the blockbuster Citizens United decision, which opened the door for corporations and unions to spend as much as they like to support or oppose political candidates, the court was accused of naked partisanship for seeming to favor Republican interests.

But after the current term, the Roberts court has proved itself resistant to caricature. Indeed, in the stunning decision to uphold President Barack Obama’s health care law, which sustained the most significant piece of social legislation since the New Deal, Roberts recast the legacy of his court and boosted the political fortunes of a Democratic president.

The court was united dur-

John Roberts Since he joined the court, there have been more than a hundred 5-to-4 decisions. The health care ruling was the chief justice’s first time siding with the liberal half.

Anthony Kennedy In 5-to-4 decisions issued by the Roberts court, Kennedy has joined the court’s conservative half about twice as often as the liberal half.

Clarence Thomas Thomas joined the majority in ruling that an injured tugboat worker could seek punitive damages and, in another case, that an injured locomotive engineer was entitled to damages.

Antonin Scalia Scalia joined the liberals in ruling that a defendant wrongly forced to accept a lawyer is entitled to have a conviction overturned, and that states may exercise supervision over banks.

ing the term 44 percent of the time, which is not unusual.

But it worked as one in major cases, which is. “Cases that might have been closely divided and very contentious ended up being unanimous,� said Gregory Garre, U.S. solicitor general in the Bush administration. “It’s a tribute to the chief justice, and to the whole court.�

The justices all agreed, for instance, that the administration had wholly disregarded the First Amendment’s guarantee of religious liberty in a case concerning how employment discrimination laws apply in churches and religious schools.

That case saw a concurrence from Justice Samuel Alito, who was appointed by President George W. Bush, joined by Kagan, appointed by Obama.

Such surprising alliances dotted the docket.

Kagan, the newest member of the court, rose in influence.

In closely divided cases, she

voted with the court’s swing member, Justice Anthony Kennedy, more than any other justice. Kennedy himself had an unusually balanced term, voting as often with the court’s liberal wing as with its conservative one in 5-4 votes along ideological lines.

The court’s unanimous cases were sometimes minimalist. The court found common ground, for instance, in a modest, unsigned decision in a combustible Texas redistricting dispute, one that seemed largely to satisfy both the state and civil rights advocates.

Other unanimous rulings, like the one in the religious liberty case, were more muscular.

In that one, the court for the first time recognized a “ministerial exception� to employment discrimination laws, saying that churches and other religious groups must be free to choose and dismiss their leaders without government interference.

In an important propertyrights case, the court ruled unanimously for an Idaho couple who objected to actions of the Environmental Protection Agency designating their property as wetlands and forbidding them to build a home there.

And though the court relied on varying rationales and featured a cautious and confusing majority opinion, it was also unanimous in saying the police may not place GPS devices on cars without taking some account of the Fourth Amendment’s ban on unreasonable searches and seizures.

A theme ran through many of these cases, one that is likely to be lost in the aftermath of the victories the court handed to the Obama administration in the last week of the term. At least five times, sometimes in harsh terms, the court unanimously rejected the administration’s position.

In the environmental case, Justice Antonin Scalia said the government had sought to strong-arm the couple. And in the ministerial-exception case, Roberts said the administration had sought to read religious liberty out of the First Amendment.

The court decided 15 cases by 5-4 votes, roughly in line with earlier terms. It was also not unusual that two-thirds of those decisions divided along ideological lines, with Kennedy joining either the court’s four more liberal members or its four more conservative ones.

What was striking this year was that Kennedy swung right and left an equal number of times. Since 2000, there have been only two terms in which Kennedy did not vote with the conservatives at least 60 percent of the time in such ideologically divided cases.

Only two pairs of justices agreed more than 90 percent of the time. One was Scalia and Clarence Thomas, the two members of the court most committed to attempting to apply what they understand to be the original meaning of the Constitution. The other was Roberts and Alito, the two members of the court appointed by Bush.

However one reads the Roberts court, the justices’ jobs certainly don’t seem to have gotten easier. At the final session of the term Thursday, several looked drained, weary and ready for their summer break. “This term has been more than usually taxing,� Ruth Bader Ginsburg admitted in remarks to a liberal group two weeks ago.

HUMANITARIAN AID

Food can fuel armed conflict Foreign Policy There’s been plenty of debate in recent years about whether humanitarian aid actually helps rid the world of extreme poverty. A recent study takes this skepticism to a whole new level, suggesting that food aid not only doesn’t work but also can prolong the violent conflicts it’s meant to help resolve.

Looking at a sample of developing countries between 1972 and 2006, two economists found a direct correlation between U.S. food aid and civil conflict. For every 10 percent increase in the amount of food aid delivered, the likelihood of violent civil conflict rises by 1.14 percentage points.

For instance, according to some estimates, as much as 80 percent of the food aid shipments to Somalia in the early 1990s was looted or stolen.

Does this mean we shouldn’t give any aid at all? Of course not, say the study’s authors, who hope instead the U.S. — the world’s largest supplier of food aid, shipping out 2.5 million metric tons in 2010 — will reconsider just how this aid is given out; the main takeaway from the study is, if we want to stop civil wars, we’ve got to stop feeding the warriors.

Accord: Syria needs new leadership • But the plan backed by Russia, China, U.S. doesn’t specifically require Assad to leave Bulletin wire reports GENEVA — Russia and China joined the United States Saturday in calling for a transitional government to replace the Bashar Assad dictatorship in Syria, a major shift after a bloody conflict in which Assad has used the army and police to fight a pro-democracy uprising.

It suggested a significant move for Russia, which has backed Assad and his late fa-

ther for 40 years. At the same time, the world powers failed to reach a consensus on calling for the removal of Assad from power. “(This) just gave Assad license to kill for another year,” said Rafif Jouejati, a spokesman for the Local Coordination Committees, a Syrian opposition group. The diplomatic developments were marked by another particularly bloody day in Syria, as by one esti-

mate more than 100 people were killed, most of them civilians caught in shelling, and opposition activists posted videos of mass deaths online.

At an all-day meeting of foreign ministers called by special U.N. envoy Kofi Annan, Russia, China, the U.S., Britain, France and several of Syria’s neighbors pledged to use their leverage on the Assad regime and on the opposition to stop the fighting and form an interim government with full executive powers. Syria was not invited to the talks, nor, at U.S. insistence, was Iran, Syr-

NEW EGYPTIAN PRESIDENT MUST CONSOLIDATE POWER

Egyptian Presidency via The Associated Press

Field Marshal Gen. Hussein Tantawi, Egypt’s military ruler, presents Mohammed Morsi, the new president, with the Shield of the Armed Forces, the military’s highest honor, at a ceremony following Morsi’s inauguration Saturday at a base near Cairo.

Promising a “new Egypt” and unwavering support to the powerful military, the Islamist launched his four-year term as the first freely elected president, but with a potentially dangerous quest to wrest back from the generals the full authority of his office.

“The (ruling) Supreme Council of the Armed Forces has honored its promise not to be a substitute for the popular will and the elected institutions will now return to carry out their duties as the glorious Egyptian army returns to being devoted to its mission of defending the nation’s borders and security,” he said, drawing a line in the sand.

If Morsi succeeds, his Muslim Brotherhood will likely be emboldened to press ahead with realizing the longtime goal of making Egypt an Islamic state. Otherwise the military — which

has been reluctant to give up the power it assumed after Hosni Mubarak’s ouster — will continue its stranglehold on the country for years, maybe decades, to come.

The yearning for stability was expressed by prominent Egyptians everywhere. Gamal Eid, a well-known rights lawyer and activist, saw in Morsi’s inauguration the chance for someone in power to be held accountable. “Now the ball is in the president’s court.”

Curiously, Morsi made no mention of the Brotherhood’s goal of bringing Egypt more in alignment with Islamic teachings in three speeches he delivered on Saturday, with his citation of a handful of Quranic verses the only sign of his political orientation. He also did not raise the case of the Egyptian-born blind sheik Omar Abdel-Rahman, who is jailed in the U.S. for plotting to blow up New York City landmarks and assassinate Mubarak. Morsi vowed to work for his release, along with political detainees in Egypt, in Friday’s speech at Tahrir Square.

Deadly weather leaves millions without power

By Sheryl Gay Stolberg and Marc Santora New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — Millions of people without electricity struggled through the scorching heat Saturday after a deadly string of thunderstorms whipped through the mid-Atlantic region the night before, downing trees and powerlines, and killing at least 12 people, including a 90-yearold woman who died when a tree fell on her house as she slept.

The damage was most severe in the Washington suburbs of Northern Virginia and Maryland, where some residents huddled in their basements as the storm ripped through the area, blowing down trees, upending lawn furniture and tearing off roof shingles.

“It came on very suddenly,” said Laurie Singer, a resident in a heavily wooded area of Potomac, Md. Her home has large plate-glass windows, and she spent 45 minutes huddled in the bathtub, listening as the huge oak trees outside slapped against the glass.

“It was a very short burst of heavy rain and then you heard this swooshing sound, and it was the wind,” she said. “I actually felt the house shaking.”

More than 3 million people in nine states woke up Saturday morning without power.

But after the storms dissipated Saturday, the heat set in.

Temperatures soared into the

Storms and summer heat Deaths: Authorities have confirmed at least 13 deaths related to the storms that swept across the eastern U.S. Deaths have been reported in Virginia, Maryland, Washington, D.C., New Jersey, Kentucky and Ohio.

Power outages: About 368,000 were without power in Baltimore County; 783,000 in Virginia, including the suburbs outside Washington; 379,000 in Washington, D.C.; 950,000 in Ohio; 577,000 in West Virginia; and 151,000 in New Jersey.

Heat: The National Weather Service warned temperatures could climb near or above 100 degrees in many areas that already were without electricity.

triple digits in some places.

With utility crews struggling, people across the mid-Atlantic faced the prospect of days without electricity.

“You could draw a line from Denver to St. Louis to Washington, D.C. All those areas are in the hundreds right now,” said Daniel Porter, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service, saying the heat was hurting the recovery effort.

Some sought refuge in movie theaters, coffee shops and malls. On Saturday afternoon, Montgomery Mall in Bethesda, Md., was jammed with people seeking air-conditioning and working lights.

Dozens camped out on the floor, with laptops, iPads and cellphones plugged into wall sockets.

President Barack Obama telephoned the governors of Ohio, West Virginia, Maryland and Virginia, all of whom declared states of emergency.

Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell said his state had suffered the largest “non-hurricane power outage” in its history.

There were reports of deaths from the storm and heat in New York, New Jersey, Maryland, Tennessee, Ohio and Kentucky.

For some, the damage was not life-threatening, just inconvenient. The storm forced the delay of the third round of the AT&T National golf tournament because of fallen trees on the grounds of the Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Md. Officials said that even as play resumed, fans and volunteers would not be allowed access Saturday. When the storm knocked out power for an Amazon data center in Northern Virginia that hosts some popular websites, services like Netflix, Instagram and Pinterest went down. Most of the sites were back online Saturday afternoon.

ia’s single closest ally.

At Russian insistence, the wording of the final communique did not explicitly call for Assad’s ouster but instead said the new government “shall be formed on the basis of mutual consent.”

It appeared to amount to the same thing. “The government will have to re-form by discussion, negotiation and by mutual consent, and I will doubt that the Syrians … will select people with blood on their hands,” Annan said.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton agreed. “Assad has to

go. He will never pass the mutual consent test.” She added that the agreement to vest the power to govern fully in the transitional governing body “strips him and his regime of all authority if he and they refuse to step down and leave.”

That message would have to be delivered by Russia and China. She said the United States and its allies at the talks, including Kuwait, Iraq and Turkey, “made it absolutely clear to Russia and China that it is now incumbent upon them to show Assad the writing on the wall.”

Damascus suburb is epicenter of fighting Syrian troops have regained control of a rebellious Damascus suburb after a 10-day assault that left dozens dead, hundreds wounded and caused a major humanitarian crisis, activists said Saturday.

The latest campaign was the worst of several assaults on the area, with dead bodies left in the streets, witnesses said. Douma’s residents suffer from daily shelling as well as shortages of food, electricity and running water.

U.S. bets Iran oil sanctions will work New York Times News Service After 31⁄2 years of attempting to halt Iran’s nuclear program with diplomacy, sanctions and sabotage, the Obama administration and its allies are imposing sweeping new sanctions that are meant to cut the country off from the global oil market.

Many experts regard it as the best hope for forcing Iran to change its course.

The European Union is putting in place a complete embargo of oil imports from Iran, which was the Continent’s sixth-biggest supplier of crude in 2011.

Three days ago, the United States imposed a new round of sanctions that could punish any foreign country that buys Iranian oil. However, it has issued six-month exemptions to 20 importers of Iranian oil who have significantly cut their purchases, including China, which has openly opposed the pressure on Iran.

Even before these steps, Iran conceded its oil exports were down 20 to 30 percent.

But so far the escalating sanctions, which the Bush administration started, have failed in their central goal of forcing Iran’s mullahs to stop enriching uranium.

On Friday, Iran’s ambassador to the United Nations indicated that the harsh new measures might not sway Tehran, saying negotiations were at a “critical point.”

Still, President Barack Obama and his European allies are placing a bet that another big turn of the economic screws may change Iran’s attitude.

“It is our assessment that the Iranians have not experienced deep enough sanctions long enough to fully understand what their isolation means,” a senior administration official closely involved in strategy said Friday.

David Cohen, Treasury

undersecretary for terrorism and financial intelligence, described the measures as particularly potent because they focus on the “lifeblood of Iran’s economy.” Already Iran’s exports have declined to about 1.5 million barrels a day from about 2.5 million barrels a day last year.

The round of penalties that come into full effect today, some historians say, represent one of the boldest uses of oil sanctions as a tool of coercion since the United States cut off oil exports to Japan in 1940. That experiment did not end well: The Japanese decided to strike before they were weakened.

The measures, of course, are not the only tool in use.

Obama has tried open appeals to the Iranian people and private letters to the supreme leader. And he accelerated the most sustained cyberattack on a sovereign state in U.S. history.

It was emotional because of the spectacular drama of the athletic accomplishment, but also because of what Eaton and his mother had endured on his way to the top.

“It was just the culmination of all the years and of the struggles that Ashton and I have been through personally as a family,” Roz said this week. “And the payoff, the success of his reaching his dream and goal … it was just really overwhelming.”

A single mother raising a biracial son (Roz is white and Ashton’s father is black), Roz admits that they struggled at times, both financially and emotionally. She worked multiple jobs to support Ashton, as a receptionist at a Bend law office by day and as a waitress at a local restaurant by night.

“I just feel like there were so many times that I couldn’t be everywhere and do everything,” Roz recounted. “And things that I missed, signature moments I missed when I really didn’t want to.”

By all accounts — including the one that matters most — Roz, who still lives in Bend, was and is a devoted mother.

Anyone could see that by her expressions on the Hayward Field track last weekend.

“My mom and I are pretty close,” Ashton said. “We both are very perceptive, her more than I. She can pick up on any little thing that may be bothering me and always helps me feel better. When I was growing up, she always told me I had a purpose and I’m not here or doing what I am doing by accident.”

Eaton was born in Portland, the only child of Roz, then 22, and her boyfriend at the time, Milton Bennett (who now goes by the name Terrence Wilson).

The couple split up two years later. And while Eaton is fairly close to his three half siblings on his father’s side, he has had little contact with his dad, who currently lives in Bend.

According to court documents, Roz through the years has filed claims asking the state to enforce child support that Wilson has not paid.

In a phone interview last week, Wilson expressed regret about not being more of a father to Ashton.

“I made contact with him in 2004, when he was 17,” Wilson recalled. “I hadn’t seen him since he was 5. We had a good relationship when we first met.

But we have not spoken in 2½ years.”

Wilson — who said he watched Ashton’s world-record performance on television — declined to go into detail about what caused the falling out between his son and him.

Roz and Ashton moved from Portland to La Pine when Ash-

Loans Continued from A1 In the short run, that means students can breathe a sigh of relief this summer. A year from now, however, those rates are set to rise to 6.8 percent. That automatic increase was approved by Congress when lawmakers signed off on a series of scheduled rate reductions five years ago.

“There are more struggling families, and they need some assurances to feel OK about getting young people into and through college,” said Kati Haycock, president of The Education Trust.

About $1.2 billion will be saved by limiting federal subsidies of Stafford loans to six years for students pursuing a bachelor’s degree and three years for those completing an associate’s degree.

Richard Vedder, director of the Center for College Affordability and Productivity and an economics professor at Ohio University, said that could have the positive effect of encouraging more students to complete their degree in a timely manner, while also allowing some flexibility for students who work and have families and need more time to finish.

But he sees a negative impact down the road. Vedder argues that lower interest rates contribute to the desire to borrow money, which he says has the adverse effect of enabling schools to raise their tuition.

Some students with poor aca-

ton was 2.

At one point, Roz remembered, baseball was Ashton’s sport. They traveled the Northwest for youth league games, with tripleheaders on Saturdays and doubleheaders on Sundays. Then came traveling basketball, and then taekwondo three nights a week for seven years. Ashton earned his black belt when he was 13.

“Ashton wanted to be a Ninja Turtle — Donatello, to be specific!” Roz said, referring to the popular “Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles” comic and cartoon series. “We must all remember that when Ashton was younger, he was NOT an Olympian.

He was just a boy giving everything he had to whatever he was doing at the time. Unofficially, Ashton has been training for (the Olympics) pretty much his entire life.”

In fifth grade, he began running cross-country at La Pine Elementary School — early training for the impressive 1,500-meter time (4 minutes, 14.48 seconds) he ran last weekend to set the world decathlon record.

“Whatever I wanted to try, she made sure I followed through with it and tried it 100 percent so I would really know if I liked it or not,” Ashton said of his mom.

The Eatons moved to Bend when Ashton was in sixth grade. He competed in track and field at Pilot Butte Middle School.

Roz, now 47, says she was always looking for father figures for Ashton — sometimes, she admits, to a fault.

“I was a pretty young mom, and I really wanted Ashton to have a family,” Roz reflected.

“I feel like, in my search of that, I didn’t really choose men well. So, I stopped doing that. I stopped trying to produce this family. The struggles had to do with that, but also financially.

There were times when I was working three jobs. It was difficult. Every little boy wants to have a dad.”

In middle school, Ashton met Tate Metcalf and John Nosler through the Central Oregon Track Club. Metcalf and Nosler coached Eaton at Bend’s Mountain View High School,

demic records and for whom college might not be the best fight might be inclined to enroll anyway. That could aggravate problems in the labor market, where there are many unemployed and underemployed recent college graduates.

“It makes political sense, but not economic sense,” Vedder said.

The price of college tuition has skyrocketed in recent decades. Between 1982 and 2007, tuition and fees increased 439 percent while the median family income rose 147 percent, according to a report from the National Center for Public Policy and Higher Education. The price of in-state tuition at a public university has increased by more than 5 percent annually in the past 10 years. It jumped 15 percent between 2008 and 2010 alone.

Cuts to state education budgets have played a significant role in increasing those costs, particularly in recent years.

How much influence the expansion of access to federal aid has played is less certain; many insist it plays none. An analysis this year by the American Council on Education concluded there is no evidence to suggest it has, and that any relationship between the two is incidental, not causal.

What is certain is that with the price of tuition continuing to rise, pressure will remain on Congress to keep rates low.

Nebergall, 21, said she expects to owe $20,000 or more on her federal loans by the

where he won state championships in the long jump and the 400 meters as a senior and was a standout running back on the football team. (Ashton’s maternal grandfather, Jim Eaton, played running back for Michigan State University in the early 1960s.)

Eaton and Metcalf formed a special bond — a bond that remains strong today. (Metcalf and his wife, Aimee, plan to travel to London in early August, along with Roz, to watch Ashton compete in the Olympics.)

Roz said she credits Metcalf and Nosler with seeing the potential in her son, and with providing a positive male influence.

“After a dinner meeting with Tate Metcalf and John Nosler at the beginning of Ashton’s senior year at Mountain View,” Roz recalled, “I believed what they were saying — that Ashton could have a future in collegiate track, even have a future as an Olympian.”

Decathlon is not an official high school event in Oregon, but Metcalf was pushing Eaton toward it going into his senior year at Mountain View, even though Eaton had never actually competed in throws or in the pole vault. When Metcalf first mentioned the decathlon, Eaton did not even know what it was.

“The decathlon always chooses you; you never choose it,” Eaton said after setting his world record in Eugene. “I think the reason the decathlon is so appealing is because it’s

time she graduates, and about the same in private loans as well. While she and her longterm boyfriend would like to move in together when she finishes school, Nebergall doesn’t think they’ll be able to afford

like living an entire lifetime in two days. You have the ups, the downs, the goods, the bads, the comebacks. It all happens in two days, and everybody loves life, and I think that’s why we love the decathlon.”

With advocacy from Metcalf, Eaton was recruited to the University of Oregon by Dan Steele, who then coached decathlon for the Ducks. Eaton went on to win three NCAA decathlon titles for UO. “We had no idea he was sitting on this much untapped potential,” Steele said — in 2008.

“After I won the very first decathlon I did in college,” Eaton said last month, “I knew I would be doing it forever.”

Showing a bit of clairvoyance, Metcalf said this four years ago before the 2008 Olympic trials, in which Eaton finished fifth in the decathlon: “I truly believe he is the next great American decathlete. It’s unbelievable what he could accomplish.”

Metcalf was in awe watching Eaton last weekend from the front row of the east grandstands at Hayward Field.

“He absolutely, 100 percent dedicated himself to the sport,” Metcalf said. “While he went to school (at UO), he kept up the good grades (receiving a bachelor’s degree in psychology in 2011) and did everything the right way.”

Eaton won the decathlon at the USA Championships last year and went on to finish second at the world championships.

medal at worlds, Eaton and his coach, Harry Marra, focused on his training this past year in Eugene, working to get stronger in the throws, his weaker events, and to polish his skills in his better events, like the 100 meters and the long jump.

The training produced results with a world record of 9,039 points last weekend.

That broke the former record of 9,026 points, set by Roman Sebrle of the Czech Republic in 2001.

Eaton, who continues to live in Eugene, competes for the Nike-sponsored Oregon Track Club Elite. He has endorsement deals with Powerade and Procter & Gamble, with more likely to come during the lead-up to London. Eaton also reportedly received a $750,000 bonus from Nike for his world record.

Theisen, Eaton’s girlfriend of four years and fiancee of one year, is a heptathlete who also competes for OTC Elite and shares Marra as a coach with Ashton. (Theisen this past week finished second in the heptathlon at the Canadian Olympic Trials and will represent her native Canada in London.)

Should Eaton win the gold medal in London, Theisen said she believes Roz deserves a spot on the medal stand next to her son.

“Ashton and Roz definitely didn’t have the easiest life while Ashton was growing up, and they had to work for everything they got,” Theisen said Weekly Arts & Entertainment Inside

last month. “Roz is a fighter, though. She wanted Ashton to have all the things that the other kids his age had, and more.

She worked her butt off so that he could do all the sports he wanted, and she helped him in any way she could — financially, mentally.

“But the most important thing is that she taught him how to be a good person. She’d discipline him if he ever treated anyone with disrespect, but she also taught him how to be a tough person and to stand up for himself and others. Anyone that knows Ashton or meets him for the first time is always shocked at how well-spoken and friendly he is. People aren’t just blessed with this type of personality; it needs to be taught. And he’s only lived with his mom growing up, so you know where he learned it from.”

With the steadfast support of a single mother’s hard work and love, Ashton Eaton achieved the dream of a world record. Now he pursues his next goal: an Olympic gold medal.

“I believed in Ashton,” Roz said. “And he never let go of his dream.”

Mood in Hong Kong is dour Health care and politics: as Chinese president returns a long history together ANALYSIS

By Kevin Drew

New York Times News Service

By Ezra Klein The Washington Post

In 2007, Republican Sen. Jim DeMint of South Carolina sent a letter to President George W. Bush.

DeMint said he would like to work with Bush to pass legislation that would “ensure that all Americans would have affordable, quality, private health coverage, while protecting current government programs. We believe the health care system cannot be fixed without providing solutions for everyone. Otherwise, the costs of those without insurance will continue to be shifted to those who do have coverage.�

Read that closely. DeMint does not say he wants legislation that would ensure all Americans have “access� to coverage — the standard rhetorical dodge of politicians who don’t want to oppose universal coverage, but also don’t want to do what’s necessary to achieve it. He says he wants legislation that ensures all American actually have coverage. He says that without making sure every American has coverage, “the health care system cannot be fixed.� For good measure, DeMint wants to achieve this “while protecting current government programs.�

DeMint was not alone. Signatories to the letter included Sens. Maria Cantwell, DWash., Kent Conrad, D-N.D., Herb Kohl, D-Wis., Ken Salazar, D-Colo., and Ron Wyden D-Ore., and Sens. Robert Bennett, R-Utah, Mike Crapo, R-Idaho, Trent Lott, R-Miss., and John Thune, R-S.D. But it’s DeMint’s involvement that seems, in retrospect, most remarkable.

DeMint is arguably the Senate’s most conservative member, and he’s inarguably the chamber’s most aggressive champion of the tea party. He’s been helping the tea party knock off Republican incumbents for being insufficiently conservative. Yet in the letter to Bush, DeMint sounds like Barack Obama. That letter wasn’t an isolated incident.

DeMint also endorsed Mitt Romney for president in 2007, telling National Review that Romney “has demonstrated, when he stepped into government in a very difficult state,

that he could work in a difficult partisan environment, take some good conservative ideas, like private health insurance, and apply them to the need to have everyone insured.�

Whatever the fallout from the Supreme Court decision on the Affordable Care Act, the two parties have clearly laid out their health care platforms for 2012. The Democrats’ commitment is to provide every American with health insurance. The Republican Party’s commitment is to prevent any American from being forced to have health insurance.

It wasn’t always this way.

Democrats and Republicans used to argue over how best to achieve universal coverage, but both agreed on the goal.

The first president to propose a serious universal health care plan was Harry Truman, a Democrat. The second was Richard Nixon, a Republican.

In the 1990s, when President Bill Clinton was arguing for a national health care system based on an employer mandate, Republicans were arguing for one based on an individual mandate.

In the 2000s, Romney used the individual mandate to make Massachusetts the first state to actually achieve nearuniversal coverage. On the national level, Republicans as diverse as Newt Gingrich, Lamar Alexander and Lott joined him. Republicans sometimes like to present their support for the individual mandate as a youthful indiscretion, but as late as June 2009, Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, the ranking Republican on the Senate Finance Committee, was telling Fox News that “there is a bipartisan consensus to have an individual mandate.�

Today, Romney touts a health care plan, to the extent he has one, that would almost certainly lead to reduced insurance coverage. He wants to repeal the Affordable Care Act, cutting loose 31 million Americans who are expected to gain coverage under the law. Then he wants to drastically cut Medicaid spending by turning it over to the states and capping the growth of federal contributions. The Urban Institute estimates that such a policy would cause 14 million

to 19 million Americans to lose Medicaid coverage.

This, perhaps, is one of the clearest differences between the Republicans and Democrats in this election: health insurance for 45 million to 50 million people.

It’s still possible that Romney will devise additional policies to offset, at least partially, the loss of coverage. Right now, he promises to “end tax discrimination against the individual purchase of insurance,� a pledge too vague to analyze. By this time in 2008, presidential candidates Obama and John McCain had both detailed health care proposals loaded down with specifics. Romney’s lack of detail, or even a general outline, confirms how little pressure GOP primary voters put on him to address the issue.

Indeed, influential conservatives have been turning on the idea of universal coverage entirely. In June 2007, National Review published an editorial arguing that Republicans should reject “the goal of universal coverage. Deregulating health insurance would make it more affordable, and thus increase the number of Americans with coverage. But to achieve universal coverage would require either having the government provide it to everyone or forcing everyone to buy it.� Michael Cannon, director of health care policy at the libertarian Cato Institute, formed the “Anti-Universal Coverage Club,� whose members “reject the idea that government should ensure that all individuals have health insurance.� This attitude is now the norm within the Republican Party, even if it is rarely acknowledged so starkly.

The battle over the Affordable Care Act has largely distracted voters from this tectonic shift in the Republican Party. Yet unlike in past elections, in which even the most conservative Republicans argued that we should “ensure that all Americans would have affordable, quality, private health coverage,� voters this year will choose between one party that supports universal health care and one that doesn’t, with health insurance for as many as 50 million voters hanging in the balance.

HONG KONG — The last time China’s President Hu Jintao visited this former British colony, in 2007, the public mood was positive, buoyed by the approaching Beijing Olympics and a surging mainland economy that was pouring tourist and investment money into the territory.

But Hu, who arrived Friday and is to stay through today to observe a change of local government and the 15th anniversary of the return of Hong Kong to Chinese sovereignty, is encountering a very different sentiment this time.

Public mistrust of the central government in Beijing is at its highest since the handover in 1997, while approval ratings for Leung Chun-ying, the incoming Hong Kong chief executive, have dropped sharply before his inauguration.

Pressing economic worries have contributed to public frustration that has been building for months, both with Beijing and with the political and economic system in Hong Kong since 1997, a system in which special interests controlled by a small circle of tycoons select the chief executive. “We still cannot choose our chief executive, and that has caused many problems,� said Andrew Shum, 25, who is organizing one of the demonstrations near where Hu is leading meetings. “People don’t trust the chief executive, because they don’t have a voice in voting for him.�

Fifteen years after the handover, Hong Kong faces a wide set of challenges, analysts say: Property prices have soared to their highest levels since 1997; the gap between rich and poor, already the greatest in Asia, is at its highest level in four decades; air pollution continues to worsen; and no clear path has been presented to usher in a system to allow the pub-

McClatchy Newspapers

Despite the punditry about the national health care law’s mandate that Americans buy health insurance or pay a penalty, the vast majority wouldn’t be forced to buy anything or pay any penalty.

A recent study by the Urban Institute, a nonpartisan research center that focuses on economic and social policy, found that if the law had been fully implemented last year, 93 percent of the population under age 65 wouldn’t have faced a penalty or had to buy insurance under the mandate.

In fact, only 6 percent of Americans, about 18 million people, would have to “newly purchase� insurance under the law, the study found. And of this group, roughly 11 million would be eligible for subsidies to help buy their coverage from new insurance marketplaces, or “exchanges,� created by the law.

The remaining 7 million, about 2 percent of the total population and 3 percent of all Americans under age 65, wouldn’t receive any financial help and could face penalties for lacking coverage, said Linda Blumberg, a health economist and senior fellow in the Urban Institute’s Health Policy Center.

This relatively thin sliver of Americans who would be required to pay for full coverage belies the dominant public perception that the mandate would be a financial strain for wide swaths of the population. “That was one of the reasons we wanted to do this study, because we felt like the real impact was being blown out of proportion,� said Blumberg, who was the lead researcher on the study.

lic to directly elect leaders.

Beijing guaranteed that Hong Kong’s civil liberties, which include independent courts and a free press, would be preserved for the first 50 years after the handover. But many here worry that the way of life is yielding to the flood of people coming from the mainland, either as tourists or immigrants, and to increasing business ties with mainland interests.

Organizers were expecting a large turnout for the annual July 1 demonstration, a day that activists traditionally use to press for action on various social issues. On Saturday, tensions between

residents and Beijing were on display when the police briefly scuffled in the evening with a small group of demonstrators in front of the convention center where Hu was attending a banquet with local officials.

A Hong Kong reporter briefly threw Hu’s tightly scripted visit to the semiautonomous city off course Saturday by asking about the 1989 military crackdown on protesters in Tiananmen Square. The reporter for the Apple Daily newspaper said he was detained for about 15 minutes after the incident.

The encounter was shown on local television.

of the high court’s decision, Blumberg’s estimates could look dramatically different, with some of the 8 million people projected to get free Medicaid coverage moving instead into the group of nearly 11 million who are eligible for subsidized care.

In his majority decision, Chief Justice John Roberts Jr. suggested that the law’s penalties for not obtaining coverage may not be enough to compel the uninsured to purchase it. “Some people will definitely pay the penalty instead,�

Blumberg acknowledged. “But I think people would also like to spend their money and get something in return, rather than spending it and getting nothing in return, which is what the penalty is.�

A closer look at numbers shows that 87.4 million of the 268.8 million Americans under age 65 would be exempt from the mandate because they are illegal immigrants, have incomes below the law’s tax-filing threshold or can’t get coverage because the premiums would eat up too much of their income.

Blumberg’s estimates reflect the participation of all states in the expanded Medicaid coverage envisioned under the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. But the Supreme Court ruled Thursday that states don’t have to expand their Medicaid programs as the law originally required.

For Mexican voters gripped by fear, few good choices

By Nick Miroff The Washington Post

TAMPICO, Mexico — The two Mexicos exist side by side in this steamy port city built by wildcatters and stevedores — the good, modern, more prosperous Mexico and the really bad Mexico, where gun battles break out at the local T.G.I. Friday’s and kidnapping crews roam middle-class neighborhoods, snatching teenage girls.

Voters here have their lives on the line in today’s presidential election, in a city a few hours’ drive south of Texas where the municipal police were so hopelessly corrupt that they had their weapons taken away, their duties transferred to convoys of masked soldiers deployed to stem outright panic after two former mayors were abducted.

The vote, many residents say, is the worst kind of choice, between candidates and parties they don’t especially like or trust.

In the most violent quarter of Mexico, it is a vote based less on hope and more on fear.

“We can’t survive like this forever,” said Jose Luis Sanchez, a businessman who has had to lay off two-thirds of his workforce in the past 18 months and worries constantly about the safety of his children. “We have to have laws.”

On the ‘wrong track’ In today’s Mexico, stability and lawlessness coexist. While some cities remain safe, including heavily guarded tourist zones such as Cancun and Los Cabos, Mexico’s northern border towns and other drugtrafficking hubs rank among the most murderous places in the world.

Mexicans seem just as split by the state of their country. A survey this month by the independent polling firm Buendia & Laredo found that a majority think Mexico is “on the wrong track.” But many members of the country’s expanding middle class remain upbeat about their personal prospects, with 59 percent saying their lives had improved or remained the same since Felipe Calderón became president in 2006.

Calderón and his predecessor, Vicente Fox, from the conservative, pro-business National Action Party, or PAN, have given Mexico nearly 12 years of economic stability and slow but steady growth.

The financial shocks and wild peso devaluations of the 1990s and early 2000s were replaced by low inflation, booming trade, aerospace and automobile manufacturing, and the kind of balanced budgets the U.S. Congress can only dream of.

But Tampico is one of the places where the dark, scary Mexico is devouring the other one. In the nearly six years since Calderón declared war on the country’s drug mafias, the surrounding northern border state of Tamaulipas has become a cartel battlefield and a horror show, the scene of beheadings, mass graves

Foreclosure Continued from A1 “It’s going to help resolve homeowner complaints about not getting an answer about whether they are going through foreclosure or not — complaints we hear over and over again,” Dubanevich said.

Ideally, it will also put an end to the proverbial runaround, he said.

A centralized database with the homeowner’s information will be kept so every person he or she comes in contact with should be able to locate it.

Karen McCarthy, of Madras, testified during the past legislative session that these changes would be “game changers.” The hay farm she lives on, owned by her partner, Dave Kaiser, has been caught in foreclosure proceedings for three years. The couple moved to Central Oregon from Nevada in 2006 so Kaiser could buy the farm.

“It was his dream to own his own farm,” McCarthy said.

“He wasn’t looking for a McMansion on 80 acres. This was a way to farm on his own. …

Mexico’s election from a U.S. perspective Opinion polls give Enrique Peña Nieto, candidate of the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) a double-digit lead over his closest rival, leftist Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador. Josefina Vazquez Mota, candidate of President Felipe Calderon’s conservative National Action Party, trails a distant third. Whoever wins will contend with murderous gang warfare and lackluster economic growth that has kept nearly half of Mexicans in poverty.

Here are five things to look for as a new leader takes over for a six-year term. will the election mean for the United States? Peña’s 1andWhat economic and security policies largely mirror those of Calderón his immediate predecessor, Vicente Fox, who also hails from the conservative and pro-business National Action Party.

All three leading candidates have vowed to improve upon Calderon’s campaign against organized crime and drug trafficking. But they each have said they would keep the military in the streets until civilian police are capable of providing security.

Peña has said he wants a partial privatization of Mexico’s petroleum and electricity industry — which would be good news for Houston-based energy companies. But sweeping energy reforms will depend on the ability of the winner to manage Congress, which has opposed efforts to open up the energy sector to American investment.

Will violence decrease along the U.S.-Mexican border? In 2 the short run, probably not. But all three contenders have said they will tinker with Calderon’s military-led strategy against the

and naked corpses left dangling from bridges. The port of Tampico and the highways and border crossings of Tamaulipas represent billion-dollar drug-smuggling routes to the United States.

Which is one reason voters here appear ready to break with the current order and turn away from the ruling PAN party and its standard-bearer, Josefina Vazquez Mota, the country’s first viable female candidate but who is running third in a field of three major candidates.

PRI, the old guard Holding a double-digit lead in most voter surveys is Enrique Peña Nieto, the fresh face of the old political dynasty called the Institutional Revolutionary Party, or PRI, which ran Mexico from 1929 until 2000 with a firm authoritarian blend of cronyism and corruption that writer and Nobel laureate Mario Vargas Llosa called “the perfect dictatorship.”

The reality of the PRI is as well known here as anywhere in Mexico. The state of Tamaulipas has been run by an unbroken chain of PRI governors for 83 years. Its past three governors have faced accusations of corruption and links to drug traffickers.

Tomas Yarrington, governor from 1999 to 2005, was named last month in U.S. court documents as an alleged money launderer for the fearsome Zetas cartel.

The current governor, Egidio Torre Cantu, was elected only after his brother was assassinated in a highway ambush in the last weeks of the 2010 campaign.

Yet the polls show the PRI’s Peña headed toward a landslide here. Why? “People are not stupid. They perceive things the way they are,” said Guadalupe Correa-Cabrera, a professor at the University of Texas in the border city of Brownsville and an expert on Tamaulipas politics and organized crime.

“They know that state and

We thought it would be reasonable, something not overpriced and a good place to start.”

McCarthy said they are still working with lenders to stave off foreclosure. The new law, Senate Bill 1552, will not help McCarthy and Kaiser, but she felt it important to testify anyway. The law will only affect those who have a foreclosure notice on or after July 11.

Homeowners facing foreclosure after that date should receive a notice from the lender giving them information and a date by which they can decide whether to enter into mediation.

Those who haven’t entered foreclosure proceedings yet but feel they might be at risk have the option to see a housing counselor and enter into mediation. The homeowner

local authorities from the PRI have been linked to organized crime. Tamaulipas has always been a kind of narco state. But the situation was calm. The narcos didn’t mess with us. But when Calderón declared war?

Things became really bad, and this is what the people know,” Correa-Cabrera said.

U.S. praise The U.S. government, from President Barack Obama to the Republican leadership in Congress, never miss an opportunity to praise Calderón for taking on the cartels, which earn billions running dope across the border to the world’s biggest drug market.

But here in Tamaulipas, voters see few benefits to the crackdown and say they are paying the price for a reckless, poorly planned strategy of military confrontation, undermined by corrupt or incompetent police, courts and judges.

Said one rancher who lives in Tampico but feared giving his name: “We know what’s going on. With the PRI, you have lots of dishonesty, lots of stealing, okay? But when I was driving to my ranch under the PRI, I didn’t see bodies without heads. Now I do.

How many restaurants have closed? Stores, warehouses, businesses gone? The people in Tampico with any money have left or are leaving.”

Sanchez, the struggling local businessman, remains a fierce critic of the PRI but conceded that Peña ’s party is organized and disciplined — “like a cult” — and capable of wielding the kind of authority that may be the only hope for bringing Mexico’s criminal mafias to heel.

“I don’t know what would be possible if the PRI used its power to achieve good,” Sanchez said. “But when you plant a mango tree, you can’t expect to get apples.”

He said that the PRI “has corruption in its DNA” and that bringing the party back in power would be a Faustian bargain for Mexico. “It’s the

Selef Spragg, the housing center manager at NeighborImpact in Bend, is gearing up for an increase in homeowners looking for help from housing counselors. Spragg is anticipating a possible 50 percent increase in the number of homeowners seeking help. Currently, his office sees about 70 to 100 cases each month.

At NeighborImpact, counselors walk homeowners through their options and educate them on the necessary terminology, such as the differences between refinancing and loan modification.

Counselors can review homeowners’ credit, budgets and debts and offer them financial analyses and suggested action plans. Workshops are offered.

Many times, Spragg said, he has worked to help modify a home loan and been close to helping the homeowner keep the loan only to find out it was too late — the bank had already foreclosed. “There were a lot of sad situations,” he said.

easy path, but in the long run, it’ll be more torturous. Like going back to zero,” he said.

Only zero may be better than what Tampico has now.

The city of 300,000 has become an abysmal place to do business. In the past year, Sanchez’s industrial safety equipment supply company has withered from 36 employees to 12 because his most important customers, oil workers, are too scared to drive out to the rural areas — Zeta country — where the wells are.

Few people answer calls from phone numbers they don’t recognize. Fewer still were willing to speak with foreign journalists. “On the surface, things look normal, but they are not,” said Carlos Heredia, a scholar at Mexico City’s Center for Economic Research and Teaching who is from Tampico. “It’s a small city. Everybody in politics and business knows each other, and I can tell you people are scared.”

Heredia said voters in Tampico are responding to Peña ’s promise to focus on the crimes that hurt ordinary Mexicans the most — kidnapping, extortion, robbery — rather than trying to stop the global narcotics trade. But Heredia and others ask: How can you confront these types of crimes without going after the large mafias that sponsor and profit from it?

gangsters. Perhaps those adjustments will work.

Both Peña and Lopez Obrador tend to emphasize more social spending to wean youths from the gangs. Vazquez, like Calderón, supports such spending as well, but goes stronger on rooting out official corruption and keeping military pressure on the gangs.

With Ciudad Juarez’s violence in substantial decline, any borderland strategy is likely to focus on Monterrey and the cities bordering South Texas — no matter who wins.

How close will the vote be? Opinion polls published last 3 week give Peña as much as a 16-point lead over Lopez Obrador, aided by a sweep of all northern Mexico. “It’s a wipeout,” independent analyst Federico Estevez said of Sunday’s balloting and Peña’s advantage. “The question really is sort of between whether it’s humongous or so-so.”

Would a Peña win mean he could make serious policy 4 changes? That will depend on Peña’s final vote tally and the coattails he provides in congressional and state races. The PRI and allied splinter parties are likely to win a majority of congress.

But they’ll need to make deals with opponents to win the twothirds support of Congress and Mexico’s 32 states for constitutional changes.

If Peña wins less than 40 percent of the vote, something many analysts consider possible, his political maneuverability will prove more limited. Calderón won the presidency six years ago with only 36 percent, which sharply curtailed his ability to get his policy proposals through Congress.

Will a Peña win mean a return to the often autocratic way 5 the PRI ruled for 71 years until 2000? Opponents claim and fear that it will. But Peña has strongly praised Mexico’s democracy in his speeches. And many analysts argue that the country now has adequate checks and balances to prevent that from happening.

Though the PRI continues to dominate Mexican politics, voters have shown a willingness to throw its politicians — as well as those from other parties — out of office if they don’t measure up.

A rising force in the global meth trade

6 months on, fears coming true in Iraq

By Sebastian Abbot

By Lara Jakes and Kay Johnson

The Associated Press

The Associated Press

ISLAMABAD — Iran, Pakistan and other South Asian countries are a fast-rising force in the global methamphetamine market, with drug cartels thriving off the weak governance and law enforcement that have long fueled the region’s heroin trade.

This environment has allowed criminals to tap into the countries’ relatively advanced pharmaceutical industries to get their hands on meth’s two main ingredients: ephedrine and pseudoephedrine. The drug is more valuable than heroin, and some say, more Shah Khalid / The Associated Press addictive.

BAGHDAD — A half-year after the U.S. military left Iraq, dire predictions seem to be coming true: The country is mired in violence and the government is on the verge of collapsing. With no relief in sight, there’s growing talk of Iraq as a failed state as al-Qaida’s local wing staged near daily attacks that killed at least 234 people in June.

Iraq no longer suffers widespread retaliatory killings between Sunni and Shiite extremists that brought the country to the brink of civil war. But the spike in violence heightens fears that Iraq could limp along for years as an unstable and dangerous country.

June was the second-deadliest month since U.S. troops withdrew from Iraq in midDecember as insurgents exploited the political struggles between the country’s ethnic and sectarian factions. More significant than the numbers was the fact that insurgents appeared able to sustain the level of violence over a longer period than usual. There was a major deadly bombing or shooting rampage almost every three days, many targeting Shiite pilgrims.

The violence has brought the weakness of Iraq’s security apparatus into sharp focus even as deepening political divisions dim the prospects that the country will emerge as a stable democracy after decades of war and dictatorship.

“The state is almost paralyzed and dysfunctional due to political feuds. In such circumstances, the security forces also will be paralyzed and the insurgents groups are making use of this chaos,” Haider al-Saadi, the Shiite owner of internet cafe in eastern Baghdad, said Saturday. “I do not think that alQaida is getting any stronger — it is the state that is getting weaker.”

The situation deteriorated

MIDEAST AND SOUTH ASIA

Where Buyers And Sellers Meet

shortly after American troops left Iraq on Dec. 18, following failed negotiations to stay beyond a year-end withdrawal deadline that was cemented in a 2008 security agreement.

The next day Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki’s government issued terror charges against Vice President Tariq al-Hashemi, one of Iraq’s highest-ranking Sunnis, who fled Baghdad and remains on the lam. Sunni lawmakers briefly boycotted parliament and al-Maliki’s cabinet in protest. By spring, leaders of the self-ruled Kurdish northern region joined the Sunni-dominated Iraqiya political coalition against alMaliki, whom they accused of refusing to share power.

And in the first major defection by an influential Shiite leader, anti-American cleric Muqtada al-Sadr says he would direct his followers to join efforts to oust al-Maliki if a power-sharing agreement is not reached.

Some analysts believe Iraq is turning into a failed state.

But despite the continued bombings and other attacks, Iraqis have not returned to the sectarian warfare that killed tens of thousands of people as violence peaked in 2006-07. Shiite militias have shown restraint even as a spate of bombings targeted Shiite pilgrims, shrines and government leaders.

Still, many Iraqis lament the withdrawal of U.S. forces, saying it was premature.

“The U.S. pullout was a mistake because the country is still in need for their intelligence and military capabilities,” said Mohammed Salam, a Sunni government employee in Baghdad. “The Iraqi government should have kept some several thousands of U.S. troops in order to help Iraq forces maintain a reasonable level of security. …

“I think Iraq will see worse days in the future if the politicians continue their destructive feuds and keep following their personal ambitions.”

Lightning cuts power in Bend

Bend taps new brewpub

Lightning was the likely cause of a power outage that affected 10,790 customers in Bend on Saturday evening, officials say.

Jan Mitchell, a spokeswoman for Pacific Power, said the outage began at 4:47 p.m. Equipment had stopped working at some substations. Pacific Power employees were able to restore power to 2,073 customers within 10 minutes.

Pacific Power employees continued to patrol the power lines, and had restored power to all but 450 customers by 5:45 p.m., Mitchell said. Power was restored to all customers shortly after 7 p.m. “They believe it was lightning-caused,�

Mitchell said.

Boy collapses near Newberry Sheriff’s deputies, fire medics and state troopers rescued a young boy Friday night when the 10-year-old collapsed after swimming near Newberry National Volcanic Monument.

The boy’s family was at a swimming hole on Paulina Creek below McKay Crossing Falls when the boy got out of the creek and told his father he did not feel well, according to a press release issued by Deschutes County Sheriff’s Deputy Mike Biondi.

The boy collapsed and his sister called 911 at 5:20 p.m. to report that he was unconscious and pale.

Sheriff’s deputies, Search and Rescue, Oregon State Police, U.S. Forest Service and La Pine Fire Department responded.

Deputies and fire medics arrived first and waded across the creek.

They placed the boy on a litter and took him back across the creek to an ambulance, which took him to St. Charles Bend.

Biondi described the boy’s injuries as nonlife-threatening. The Sheriff’s Office did not release any names. — Bulletin staff reports

Sure, it’s early, but he wants to give a taste to some friends.

And while he may be eager to get the beer on the market, Sidor — the former brewmaster at Deschutes Brewery — is all smiles as well over 100 people pack his new pub in its first hour of business. “I absolutely cannot tell you how huge this is,� Sidor said. “I’m 62 and starting a new

business. I guess let’s just roll those dice.�

Crux is Central Oregon’s newest brewery, and the first that doesn’t use “brew,� “brewing� or “brewery� in its name. Sidor said the naming was a calculated choice intended to let him act as a bit of a scientist and tinker with the beverages he crafts. In fact, his fermentation projects are likely to go beyond libations.

or a few seconds, Zeus the Rottweiler couldn’t find the bad guy. The suspect’s scent seemed to be coming from one plywood box in the center of the field, but Zeus quickly realized the wind was carrying the scent from another box.

Zeus led his handler, Deschutes County Sheriff’s Deputy Brad Wright, to the box labeled B and the search was over. Zeus and Wright were competing in the Central Oregon Police K-9 Trials on Saturday afternoon at Bend High School.

And the bad guys? They were police and sheriff’s deputies volunteering to be bitten and, in some cases, thrown to the ground by police dogs demonstrating how they help their human partners.

In addition to the area search Zeus and Wright competed in, the officers and their canine partners participated in trials of agility, suspect apprehension, speed and handler protection.

The well-trained dogs intervened when their handlers appeared to be under attack by officers playing the part of suspects, and ideally they barked when they located a hidden suspect by his or her scent, said Deputy Kyle Joye of the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office.

Redmond and Bend police dogs competed in the trials, along with Deschutes County sheriff’s deputies and police from Springfield and Milwaukie.

Tea party PAC funds conservative efforts in the region

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Redmond Police Department Officer Aaron Blackledge assists his K-9, Ruke, over an obstacle while competing in the Central Oregon Police K-9 Trials held Saturday at Bend High School.

The Bend Tea Party has its own political action committee and, for more than a year, the group has quietly been raising money to support its efforts.

Since March 2011, the Central Oregon Tea Party Political Action Committee raised more than $6,400 and spent more than $6,000, according to an analysis of state campaign finance records. The committee will focus in upcoming months on electing Republican Mitt Romney as president, said John Carrigg, communications director for the Bend Tea Party. “People are losing their freedoms every day, in every way, since the Obama administration started,� Carrigg said. “There’s just a million different ways the economy’s being hampered.�

The PAC has been active for more than a year. Its activities range from creating bumper stickers and T-shirts — with slogans such as “Evict Obama 2012� — to a forum for candidates for Deschutes County commissioner.

Members of the Bend Tea Party decided to form a PAC to advocate for conservative causes, including a smaller government, Carrigg said. For example, he believes the Environmental Protection Agency should be dissolved.

The PAC’s stated purpose is to “support conservative candidates and ballot measures,� according to state campaign finance records.

Paisley man kills newspaper editor after finding him with wife in 1912 Compiled by Don Hoiness from archived copies of The Bulletin at the Des Chutes Historical Museum.

Railroad men make 600 mile trip through interior The railroad party which left here last Monday to tour the interior returned Thursday after completing a 600-mile swing that included visits to La Pine, Silver Lake, Brookings and Burns. The travelers came from Burns Thursday, took supper here at the Pilot Butte Inn, and then

hurried on to Prineville to see the intervening country by daylight.

On the cross-country journey from Burns they went out of their way to do a little amateur detective work, picking up G.A. Johnson, a homesteader, from whom had been stolen two horses the previous night. However, though they followed some likely clues, the autoist Sherlock Holmes fell down on sagebrush sleuthing, and were forced to abandon the chase.

The party included W.P. Davidson, president of the Oregon and Western Colonization Co., E.C. Leedy, general immigration agent of the Great Northern. Six of them were

carried in Wenandy cars.

The purpose of the trip was to give the Eastern immigration agents first hand knowledge of the country.

Officers who continue to care for their retired dogs will use some funds to help pay for treatment of ailments the dogs can acquire during their years of service, according to the Bend Police Department.

Bend Police Officer Leo Lotito has trained dogs and their handlers for eight years. Lotito said handlers typically begin working with the dogs when they are 2 to 4 years old, and the dogs’ careers can last seven to nine years.

Watts and Skinner have struggled to the top of the American rock climbing community, and they soon will be shoulder-to-shoulder with the best climbers in the world.

They will take part in an international competition in Arco, Italy, in September, climbing before 20,000 spectators.

But all that seemed far away during recent interviews with the pair at Smith Rock. There is no crowd of spectators here.

Three people have been killed in recent climbing accidents. A fourth man barely escaped death this week when a safety rope was pulled tight just as he hit the ground after plunging 40 feet.

Smith Rock is a dry and dusty place. For out of shape intruders to this spot where top climbers gather from around the world, its a steep lung busting walk just to get from the parking lot to the base of the rock.

The climbers — lean, wiry men and women — wear brilliantly colored climbing tights.

Everyone else looks, and feels out of place.

Watts and Skinner are among the kings of this desert mountain.

Watts who recently moved to Bend after graduating from The University of Oregon, has made thousands of climbs at Smith Rock.

Skinner is a Wyoming native and self-described “full time climber.” He spent a month climbing at Smith Rock this spring.

Each man agreed to make a few short climbs for a photographer, foregoing ropes or other safety equipment as they scampered up, and then back down the sheer rock walls.

The two world-class climbers seemed relaxed, almost casual as they climbed to heights of 40 feet or more — where a fall would mean certain serious injury.

But Watts bristles at the suggestion that rock climbers are “thrill-seekers” who go into the sport simply because they are attracted by the danger involved.

“The danger scares me”, he says. “I do everything I can to take the danger out of it. The good climbers feel fear, just like anybody else, but they make sure they don’t get into a situation where they will get hurt.”

50 YEARS AGO For the week ending June 30, 1962

Borate use on fires requires skill Borate bombing is becoming more of a science since Deschutes foresters first dropped slurry on the rapidly-spreading Aspen Flat fire in 1959.

This was indicated in the attack on the Cinder Cone fire just south of Bend earlier in the week.

In 1959, borate as a fire retardant was just coming into use. In some forests, fire crews were using the solution, dropped from low flying planes, as an extinguishing substance, not as a retardant, until ground crews could move in and establish fire lines.

But in some parts of the country, especially in California, borate is still being used in an attempt to douse the heart of fires, not slow down the flames at their edges.

The result has been high costs, and a loud cry from congressional delegations. The future of borate for use on fires in federal forests is at stake.

On the Deschutes National Forest, the policy is to strike at fires when they are small, or lay off.

Bombers struck at the Cinder Cone fire Monday evening when it was small. More than 10,000 pounds of slurry was dumped on the eastern perimeter of the wind-swept blaze.

The fire was held. No black scar covered with spectral trees mars the scenery adjacent to U.S. Highway 97 just south of Bend.

Borate, carefully applied and supported by well-coordinated ground crews, did the trick.

Mercury drops to 28.7 here, coldest in U.S. A chill that dropped the temperature in Bend to 28.7 degrees was recorded in Bend this morning, as the upper Deschutes area once more won the unenvied honor of being the coolest reporting in the nation.

A ROCKY VISIT Wendy Rightmire, of La Pine, snapped this photo of Crack in the Ground near Fort Rock using a Fuji FinePix T on the auto setting. “We were entertaining out-of-town guests from the valley,” Rightmire wrote. “We drove to see Hole in the Ground and Crack in the Ground, which we had not seen before.”

Crux Continued from B1 “The whole brewery name can be very limiting,” Sidor said. “We want to do everything with fermenting. We’ll do pickles, sauerkraut — maybe beets. Most people think of brewing as those big copper kettles.

We’re going further.”

Even the word “crux” is specific in its intentions as it marks the company’s central location in Bend.

“We aren’t on the east or west side, or the north or south side,” said Paul Evers, co-founder and lead marketer for the company.

“We’re right at the intersection of the center of town.

This is the crux.”

The brewpub sits just south of Colorado Avenue and west of U.S. Highway 97 on Southwest Division Street, in a part of town somewhat forgotten since Bend’s mill industry declined. At one point, the building supplied mill parts for local businesses. Most recently it was a car parts shop. Now, it’s preparing to serve up drinks and beckon folks into the somewhat bleak neighborhood nestled between downtown and the Old Mill District.

“You go from downtown, which is vibrant, to the Old Mill, also vibrant, and there used to be nothing in between,” said Wesley Ladd, owner of The Horned Hand music venue that opened for business on Colorado Avenue about one year ago. “Now that is changing.”

“The whole brewery name can be very limiting. We want to do everything with fermenting. We’ll do pickles, sauerkraut — maybe beets.

Most people think of brewing as those big copper kettles. We’re going further.”

— Larry Sidor, brewmaster, Crux Fermentation Project

Ladd said he’s seen a few businesses spring up in the area in the past year, replacing empty lots and vacant buildings with shops and eateries.

He views the opening of Crux as another improvement in repairing this forgotten part of Bend.

“It’s part of a revival,” he said. “In today’s economy, you want stuff just like this.”

Crux hopes to build a sense of community in the area. Courses in “Beer 101” will be offered and meetings with brewmasters will be arranged. At Saturday’s opening, the owners asked visitors to bring a unique item to add to a type of time capsule that will be welded to the brewery equipment.

Evers said the goal is to give people a sense of involvement in the company. But the first part was to get people to show up and take interest.

“This is one of the scariest things you can do,” said Dave Wilson, the co-founder in charge of sales. “You do all this work preparing, you let everyone know ... then you buy a bunch of beer and hope people show up. Today I go to roll up here and see this huge line of people, all smiling and waiting for a beer. This is just awesome. That’s the best feeling in the world.”

Occupy evicted fromPortland home Budget cuts to spring kids from lockup LANE COUNTY CORRECTIONS

The Associated Press PORTLAND — Portland police evicted nearly a dozen squatters who had been living in a vacated home they mistakenly thought was owned

by Bank of America.

The squatters, members of Occupy Portland, had been in the two-story home since September before they were forced to leave Friday. The protesters had started receiving mail at the North Portland address and signed up for Internet service. One of them even put the water bill in his name.

But property records show the home actually belongs to Gloria Canson, a 66-year-old

schoolteacher. She discovered the squatters when she went to the home in March. Her real estate agent contacted Portland police, and they obtained a warrant forcing the occupiers to leave.

As Portland police ushered the squatters out Friday, Canson got to meet the people who left her home trashed. The occupiers said they were protesting Bank of America, which they thought owned the house.

“Don’t take advantage of the people you’re supposed to be helping,” Canson told the protesters, according to The Oregonian newspaper. “And don’t hide behind the premise that it

is ethically and morally wrong for the banks to throw you out.

Because what you’re doing is equally as reprehensible.”

Canson had left the home in August, fearing she was going to be thrown out because she was behind on her mortgage payments.

Bank of America officials said they did talk to Canson last August about her account, but they never sent her an eviction notice.

“Property owners should be aware that an eviction notice is not sent unless a foreclosure has been completed first,” the bank said in a statement.

When Canson later learned

that she still owned the home, she decided to put it up for sale.

That’s when she discovered the squatters, who had changed all the locks and told her they were legally renting the place.

Police said they found anarchist materials inside, including the addresses of vacant homes as well as information on how to pick locks.

Canson now lives in a northeast Portland townhouse. Though the house on North Mississippi holds many memories, she said she won’t come back.

“After looking in this house, I don’t want to be in this house,” she said.

SPRINGFIELD

Aspiring physicist nets full ride from Gates

By Diane Dietz The Register-Guard (Eugene)

EUGENE — A University of Oregon summer college prep program for underprivileged middle schoolers ally-ooped a Springfield teenager into the loving arms of Bill and Melinda Gates — who will pay for her college education from freshman year to doctoral degree.

And that’s a good thing, too, because the girl — Springfield High School senior Hayley Pratt-Stibich — is aiming for the higher reaches of science.

She’s not into merely plain physics.

“Particle physics,” she said.

“What I really want to do is go to Switzerland to work with the Large Hadron Collider, smashing particles together at speeds nearing the speed of light in attempts to re-create the big bang.”

Pratt-Stibich is a lifelong Springfield girl. She was born at the McKenzie-Willamette Medical Center, the second child of Terri and Tom PrattStibich. She attended Centennial Elementary, Springfield Middle School and Springfield High School, where the graduation rate is 59 percent.

Her mother, Terri Pratt-Stibich, supports the family with earnings from her wholesale bakery, My Mom’s Kitchen, where there wasn’t a lot of spare income to save for the future, Hayley Pratt-Stibich said.

But from the time Hayley was a kid, her mother told her, “If you work hard enough, people will pay you to go to college,” Hayley remembers.

Hayley Pratt-Stibich realized she had a knack for math in the third grade, when her teacher provided ice cream sundaes with the number of ingredients built on each student’s knowledge of multiplication tables — and hers was elaborate.

She thrived with teacher Tresa Lively through the fourth and fifth grades. “She made sure you were challenged up to your abilities,” Hayley Pratt-Stibich said.

By the time she arrived as a sixth-grader at Springfield Middle School, she was ready for eighth-grade math. “By eighth grade, I was going to high school for honors geometry,” she said.

She was following her mother’s directive to work hard. But she couldn’t see how college would pan out — until “Bill and Bruce” turned up at one of her middle school math classes.

The visitors were UO economics professors Bill Harbaugh and Bruce Blonigen, who were playing out their plan to boost diversity at the university by focusing on helping students solely based on low socioeconomic status.

The Summer Academy In 2006, the pair created the Summer Academy to Inspire Learning, a free, weeklong summer camp for bright eighthgraders from low-income families who were identified by their math teachers as promising.

Students repeat the camp each summer through high school graduation, studying at the university in the fields of economics, physics and human physiology, creativity and persuasion skills. Students also get practical information on finding their way into the pool of

students in high school who are seen as college-bound, as well as how to set themselves up for college scholarships.

The program gets disadvantaged students to college campuses early in their lives to allow them to see themselves belonging there. They get a sense of possibility and a confidence in their ability to go.

“It’s huge,” said Carla Gary, assistant vice president at the UO Office of Institutional Equity and Diversity. “Otherwise, it’s that dream — that unscalable mountain. If college is not something that is spoken or mentioned, or to which you have familiarity, you are not likely to see yourself as college material.”

Hayley Pratt-Stibich learned how to negotiate the system, for instance, doing well enough in middle school so teachers would sign the note to get her into honors classes.

This year, 125 students will attend the UO summer camp, which is now being replicated at Portland State University.

Last year, the first full class of summer program students graduated from high school, Fernandez said. Out of 19 students, 17 went onto college.

Eight chose the UO. Through middle and high school, Pratt-Stibich maneuvered past all the turns that sometimes sidetrack girls.

She kept her passion for mathematics.

She avoided losing herself in the shadow of a boyfriend.

In fact, she doesn’t have one. “I would, but not with the selection that’s presented to me. It’s true girls mature at a different rate than boys. It seems pretty evident at this rate,” said PrattStibich, who turns 18 next month.

She achieved.

“In high school I always worked hard. I have the 4.0 thing. I did Advanced Placement classes. I did honors classes. I did everything I could to work toward scholarships because that’s how I was going to pay for college.”

Observers said there was little doubt she’d get there.

“She’s one of those kids that everybody knows is on track,” Fernandez said.

Her high school physics teacher, Art Liddle, said he isn’t surprised by her success.

“She’s very inquisitive, which is the important part,” he said.

At the UO, physics associate professor Raghuveer Parthasarathy noticed the same thing. Parthasarathy is one of

80 UO profs who do volunteer teaching at the summer camp.

“She really liked to ask questions, and she gets engaged in activities. That’s, like, really crucial for success in physics.

“If they’re getting absorbed enough to ask, ‘What do I know and what do I not know?’, that’s a really good sign. She’s enthusiastic and thoughtful about asking questions.”

When Pratt-Stibich went into her final year of high school last fall, it was time to test her mother’s theory about people being willing to pay.

Millennium Scholars Among the scholarships she applied for was the Gates Millennium Scholars program.

The program was launched a dozen years ago by the Microsoft founder to develop a diversified cadre of future leaders who could help the United States remain competitive in the global economy, according to the Gates Foundation.

Bill and Melinda Gates kicked in $1.6 billion to sponsor 1,000 new scholars each

year for 20 years. The scholarship pays for whatever a student can’t get other grants or scholarships to cover, including books, fees, travel and living expenses.

This year, 23,000 students applied for the award. PrattStibich was among 1,000 who were chosen. She met the scholarship criteria by being demonstrably bright, by being from a low-income family, and, because her paternal grandmother was Salvadoran, she qualifies as a Hispanic.

The Gates scholarship is doing its part to help diversify the UO campus. So far, 31 award winners have studied there.

With 17.6 percent minority students, the UO is as diverse as Oregon, which has 16.4 percent minority residents.

“The numbers in the state are an indicator,” the UO’s Gary said, “but that’s not going to be a limitation because we’re preparing young people for the world and Oregon is not representative of the world. We’re moving forward.

That’s important.”

Hayley Pratt-Stibich could use the Gates scholarship to attend any U.S. university, but she applied only to go to the UO, which she had long ago set her mind on. Given the UO’s tuition and fees, the scholarship over time could be worth as much as $118,000 to her, depending on the outside grants she’s able to get and what subject she pursues for her doctorate.

“It’s a research university,” she said. “It has incredible opportunities for people in science. But at the same time, it’s not like one of the bigger schools where everybody who goes there is going for science.

I wanted to get my start some place where I could get into the lab, where there were amazing people, but it wasn’t so cutthroat and (sharp) elbows.”

The Associated Press EUGENE — Lane County is releasing criminals both young and old because of budget cuts.

Earlier this week, the county released 100 adult inmates from its jail in Eugene. And now, The Register-Guard in Eugene reported, the county is set to free half the teenagers in its youth detention facility before their scheduled release dates.

Sixteen county employees worked their last day at the Juvenile Justice Center on Friday. They are the latest to lose their jobs in budget reductions that will cut the number of beds available to juvenile offenders from 16 to eight on July 31.

“We’re down to the absolute bare bones that could be considered minimally safe,” said Al Levine, who manages Lane County Youth Services. “We’re doing the best with what’s left.”

The youth services budget for the coming year is $10.7 million, down $3.5 million from this year.

Program cuts Besides regular detention, the county has been cutting its residential program for medium-and high-risk repeat offenders.

The program, known as Phoenix, serves youth who have committed a range of crimes, from the possession and sale of illegal drugs to sexual abuse, assault and weapons crimes.

Lane County funding has been declining slowly since the mid-1990s, when a change in federal forest policy reduced the amount of timber cut on federal lands. The federal government owns 54 percent of Lane County — forests managed by the National Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management — and once returned significant portions of the logging revenue to the county.

When those funds dried up, Congress stepped in with replacement funds. But that money has diminished.

In 1996, Lane County voters approved a $39 million bond to pay for the construction of the Juvenile Justice Center, which houses juvenile court and detention and treatment facilities. Voters, however, later declined to support property tax levies that would have paid to fully staff the building.

The result: • The 96 detention beds that voter money paid for? Never full, for lack of staffing.

• The residential treatment center for drug- and alcoholaddicted teens? Closed this year for lack of funds.

• The Phoenix program?

It was on the chopping block until eight of 16 beds were saved.

• Straight detention: Starting July 31, its 16 beds also will be cut to eight.

Vocational programs The staff cuts also mean vocational programs will be eliminated or reduced.

A vegetable garden that provided food for the youth and a place to learn organic gardening and marketing skills is now weed-choked and fallow because there are not enough workers to safely supervise the offenders, said Viriam Khalsa, management analyst for youth services.

The detention kitchen, which doubles as a catering program, will lose a full-time employee, reducing the number of teens who can work there from two or three daily to one or two per week.

Khalsa said studies suggest the price of not reforming juvenile delinquents is substantial, in terms of future jail, court and treatment costs.

“Kids want a way out,” he said. “An investment in them is one of the best investments.”

Three area residents are in jail after allegedly trying to hold a woman for ransom at gunpoint in a hotel room Thursday evening, police said.

A 22-year-old Portland woman let Edward Lamar Ray, 59, whom she didn’t know, into her room at the Ramada Inn in Medford around 5 p.m.

Ray allegedly pointed a gun at the woman and demanded she call her boyfriend, ordering he bring an undisclosed amount of cash if he wanted her released unhurt, Medford police said in a news release.

Police would not comment on why the woman let Ray into her hotel room in the first place.

The woman called her 31-year-old boyfriend, also from Portland. The man then called police.

Medford police said Ray held the woman captive for several minutes before fleeing without any money. The woman was not hurt.

Police said the suspected kidnapper ran to a silver van with tinfoil in the windows, where Ronnie Lee Kyles, 34, and Melissa Beth Cranmer, 26, waited. All three suspects fled in the van, which a witness described to police

when they arrived.

Police stopped the van at Bullock Road a few minutes later and arrested all three suspects. Police also recovered the gun, which they determined was a fake.

Police said Cranmer knew the 22-year-old’s boyfriend and thought he had money, which led to the attempted ransom.

All three suspects were arrested on charges of firstand second-degree kidnapping and attempted seconddegree robbery. All are Measure 11 crimes.

All three suspects were being held in the Jackson County jail in lieu of $500,000 bail each, reduced from the original $1 million amount following their arrests. They were arraigned Friday and have a preliminary hearing scheduled for Tuesday.

Neither Ray — who previously lived in Grants Pass but doesn’t have a currently listed address — nor Cranmer, whom police identified as a Medford transient, appear to have any significant criminal history, court records show. Records show Kyles, who lives in the 300 block of North Columbus Avenue in Medford, has been convicted of sexual assault, third-degree assault and assaulting a police officer.

T N Governors unite to remove derelict vessels from Columbia

By Rachel La Corte The Associated Press

OLYMPIA, Wash. — Govs.

Chris Gregoire of Washington and John Kitzhaber of Oregon on Friday called for federal help to remove derelict vessels from their states’ waterways.

The governors joined the Coast Guard on a helicopter flyover of the Columbia River, where officials have identified 33 boats that have been abandoned or are in serious disrepair. Officials are concerned that they could leak or sink, spilling oil or other hazardous materials into the river.

Gregoire and Kitzhaber say they want a joint federal-state initiative to address the issue.

They say they want more accountability requirements, including for vessel owners to maintain proper registration and to remove any pollution risks from their vessels when they dispose of them or sell them. They also want owners to show proof that they can

afford to maintain or properly dispose the vessels they have purchased.

“We would never allow someone to simply abandon their broken-down car on their front lawn, and expect the public to pay to clean it up,” Gregoire said in a written statement.

Gregoire said the state needs tougher legislation to prevent neglected boats, and authority to hold boat owners “to a higher degree of accountability.”

Seeking federal aid The governors are also asking the federal government to take a lead role on derelict vessels, and to increase financial resources for their removal.

Gregoire said that in addition to posing environmental hazards, abandoned boats can run adrift and create navigational problems.

After Friday’s flyover, Gregoire told The Associated Press it was “a huge problem

with no real rules, regulations, laws, accountability or resources that we would just never accept on land, and somehow we’ve allowed to be accepted on water.”

Earlier this month, crews raised a derelict fishing vessel that sank in Penn Cove in Puget Sound. Its leaked oil had been threatening Whidbey Island’s famous Penn Cove mussel beds.

Gregoire and Kitzhaber pledged to work with the Coast Guard, the state Legislature and the maritime industry, among others, to quickly remove derelict vessels.

Gregoire said she would be looking at potential legislation with Oregon, as well as in Congress.

“Oregon and Washington’s shared waterways are too important environmentally, economically and socially to have people using them for backyard salvage operations,” Kitzhaber said in a written statement.

CIVIL WAR RE-ENACTMENT

BLM program puts vets to work fighting wildfires

By Paul Fattig The Mail Tribune (Medford)

Armed with a fire hose attached to a pump that’s pulling water from a fold-atank, firefighter Jeff Darner kept a fire-drowning spray on the tree in front of him.

Behind him, fellow firefighters Charles Dusenberry and Michael Tucker worked to keep the engine running and the water flowing.

The men are veterans whose experience in the military will be counted on as members of Team 10, a U.S. Bureau of Land Management squad of wildland firefighters that includes 10 young military veterans on the 20-person team.

Based at the BLM’s Medford District, the team has grown out of a nationwide program by Uncle Sam to put young veterans to work and on a career path.

It is one of three teams being organized in Oregon and Washington, including one in Klamath Falls and another in Spokane. Several other teams of young veterans are being mustered in California and Nevada.

There was no fire consuming the tree Darner was hosing down. The firefighters were participating in a field readiness review on Thursday at the U.S. Forest Service’s J. Herbert Stone Nursery in Central Point.

They have completed their firefighting training and are now ready to do battle on the front lines.

They expected to be shipped out to a fire in either Colorado or Wyoming this weekend.

Bringing history back to life

By Joce DeWitt Corvallis Gazette-Times

FORT HOSKINS — Think people can’t feel relaxed after three days in the bloodiest war in American history?

John Baker, a Salem real estate broker and sergeant of the 116th Pennsylvania volunteer infantry, said a weekend of his unique hobby — Civil War reenacting — is refreshing.

Baker and members of his regiment set up an encampment on a Friday night and ran military drills throughout the day Saturday at Fort Hoskins Historic Park.

It’s a chance, said Capt. Kevin Burton, for civilians to gain the “soldier’s experience.”

“It’s an opportunity for anyone to put on a uniform and get their feet wet,” Burton said.

And he meant it literally.

The diary pages of soldiers who slept on the ground of Fort Hoskins, a military post built for monitoring Confederate activity in the Willamette Valley, indicate rain was a recurring theme.

Pointing to the ground under his leather boots, Baker said, “This is where enlisted men’s quarters were. They were writing diary entries here in 1864 ... We’re actually on the ground where they were drilling.”

Re-enactors, who are history buffs by nature, access weather patterns in old journals in part to deepen their appreciation of soldiers’ emotional and physical suffering.

The ability to bring to life one of the country’s defining events is why Baker has been re-enacting for 14 years.

“We’re linked here,” Baker said. “I’ve had flashes where there’s nothing modern in my ‘viewscape.’ ” He described an instance in which his view of the rebel army was obscured by smoke from fired muskets, and when the smoke cleared to reveal the enemy lines, “the hair stood up

Sgt. Cole Cochrane of the 116th Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry Civil War re-enactors holds up one of the paper cartridges they use in their Civil War-era guns during an encampment at Fort Hoskins Historic Park in rural Benton County on June 23.

“I never understood the Civil War until I started re-enacting. It brings it alive for the kids.”

on the back of my neck.”

For Cole Cochrane of Pedee, a re-enactor since age 12 and now a sergeant for the 116th Pennsylvania, such moments influenced his decision to join the Oregon National Guard.

Almost all re-enactors in the 116th Pennsylvania have served in some sort of military unit. Though they aim to follow the same procedures and regulations as soldiers of the Civil War, the atmosphere, Cochrane joked, is slightly more laid-back than the National Guard.

“Though I have been made to do pushups,” he said.

The 116th Pennsylvania was happy Saturday to welcome its newest member, 13-year-old Colton Evers from St. Paul.

Evers, whose interest in the Civil War period was piqued by

movies and his grandfather’s war stories, was led through military commands and procedures so he is prepared for the larger-scale re-enactments the unit participates in throughout the summer.

Among those procedures is the art of dying in front of an audience. According to Baker, there are many creative dying methods, and some soldiers use those methods several times in a single battle.

“You recycle,” he said.

“Soldiers can die numerous times.”

It takes a certain type of person to dress in four layers of period garb and avoid all things modern for a weekend.

“I never understood the Civil War until I started re-enacting,” said Cpl. Mark Stevens of Dallas, who has taken his love and understanding for the war into schools. “It brings it alive for the kids.”

Study of the war and the period, Stevens added, blurs the line between simply pretending and reliving history.

“Through reading, you find a way to weave it into history,” Baker said. “I’ve been killed a couple times and lived to tell the tale.”

Like many military veterans, Darner, 35, of Grants Pass, who served in the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division from 1997 to 2001, has firefighting experience. The former corporal worked as a wildlands firefighter for Grayback Forestry during the 2011 season.

In between jumping out of a perfectly good aircraft for the Army and last year’s season of fighting fire, he had worked in Hawaii for a mountain-bike firm.

But he and the others will tell you that what they learned in the military is always there, ready to step forward when called.

“Veterans bring a lot of camaraderie,” Darner said. “We have each other’s backs at all times. And we

“Veterans bring a lot of camaraderie. We have each other’s backs at all times.

And we know the mission is always first — get the job done.”

— Jeff Darner, firefighter, U.S. Bureau of Land Management Team 10

know the mission is always first — get the job done.”

Never mind that the job will likely include long, dusty hikes with a heavy pack to a fire where they’ll dig fire lines for up to 16 hours a day for 14 days straight.

“The veterans fit in great with the rest of the firefighters,” observed Nolan Yocum, 29, a firefighter for 10 years who is the team leader.

“Their maturity level is there,” he added. “They are willing to take charge and take on responsibilities.”

Similar structures In fact, the command structure of a firefighting unit is very similar to that of the military, Yocum said.

“They are all hard workers,” he said. “I’m very pleased with everyone we got. They will put a lot of people to shame.”

Team 10 contains 10 military veterans, with Forest Service and BLM firefighters rounding out the 20-person crew, Yocum said. The veterans represent the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force and National Guard.

Team 10 will perform well, predicted Kevin Donham, fire staff officer for the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest, who was helping with the readiness review.

“It’s been a long time coming,” he said of recruiting military veterans. “We’ve always had veterans in our crews. But to single out those who have served their country in the military and give them an employment opportunity to help take care of the natural resources ... I couldn’t be happier. It’s what we need to do.”

He expects the U.S. Forest Service to follow suit.

“That discipline they bring from the military side just ties with what we are doing on the firefighting side,” he said. “It’s the right fit. And we need the help. We can never have too many firefighters.”

Central Point resident Mallory Conroy, 23, a nursing student at Southern Oregon University in Ashland, who

has been a member of the BLM’s Crew 7 in Klamath Falls for the past two fire seasons, was also participating in the readiness review on Thursday.

“They are going to pick up this job really quickly,” she said of the veterans. “They already understand how things run — communications, teamwork. They already have that down.”

The squad will be a Type 2 hand crew, meaning members will have the training and expertise to be deployed to most fires. A Type 1 team like a Hotshot crew is sent to the most dangerous blazes.

The Medford District has long used firefighters from the Oregon Department of Forestry for its first line of defense against wildfires. However, BLM officials say the new team locally will augment ODF firefighters who also cover private, state and county lands.

‘Awesome opportunity’ Former Army Spec. 4 Dusenberry, 25, was deployed to Iraq in 2007, spending 16 months in country where he was part of a security detachment. However, the Crater High School graduate, who was discharged in 2010, served as a wildlands firefighter with Wolf Creek Hot Shots before joining the Army.

“This is an awesome opportunity,” he said. “With other military veterans, you have someone you can relate to, someone who knows and shares the same outlook in life. It’s nice to be working with people who understand and know what you’ve been through.

“And we’ve got a great group of people,” he added.

“I’m looking forward to this season.”

So is Tucker, 27, a former senior airman in the Air Force who served in Qatar. He was with Rural/Metro Fire Department in Grants Pass for the past year.

“This will be my first season with wildland fires,” he said. “But there is a correlation between firefighters and (military) veterans. There is definitely that camaraderie of working together with a tightknit group.”

There may be a small hitch.

Literally.

The firefighter is getting married July 14 in the Applegate Valley.

“If they go out this weekend, I won’t be able to go — I’ll have to hang back for a bit,” he said. “I can’t really ask someone to stand in for me at the wedding.”

A $120 billion transportation package Congress approved Friday, which President Barack Obama said he would sign, is good news for paving contractors and other infrastructure firms.

The legislation renews the formula by which the federal government contributes to spending for roads, bridges and other infrastructure projects until October 2014.

Police Chief Jason Edmiston told the East Oregonian in Pendleton that 28-year-old Richard Correa was arrested Friday following a tip from a local motel.

Police say Correa was involved in the theft of a van last Sunday. He eluded police again late Wednesday after a high-speed chase in a stolen pickup.

The pickup was recovered after Correa drove about 500 yards on railroad tracks before getting stuck and fleeing on foot with a homeless woman.

Correa was booked into the Umatilla County jail on

SUPER GUPPY OVER SEATTLE

ELGIN — The Union County Board of Commissioners approved a law enforcement contract between the Union County Sheriff’s Office and the city of Elgin.

Elgin’s police department disintegrated after an officerinvolved shooting last August.

Though a grand jury ruled the shooting justified, public outrage over the incident and a host of other law enforcementrelated issues continued.

The Observer in La Grande reported that the City Council and a hiring committee conducted a months-long search for a new chief but could not find a suitable candidate.

The Elgin council voted last month to enter into a contract with the county rather than rebuild the local department.

Central Point woman leads police force MEDFORD — Kris Allison is the new chief of the Central Point Police Department — the first woman to hold that position.

Allison, 39, was sworn in Thursday in front of a packed house at Central Point City Hall.

Allison started as a patrol officer and worked her way through the ranks to become police chief in the city in which she was born and raised.

She says one of her main challenges will be making sure the department can respond to a growing population.

— From wire reports

dustry supports the bill,” said Knife River’s Southern Oregon President Mike Crennen.

“It provides certainty with funding through fiscal year 2014, which is way better than continuing extensions. However, funding levels are flat, which means no new jobs, but it will certainly save jobs.”

Congressional leaders reached tentative agreement earlier this week, agreeing to maintain current federal transportation levels for 27 months, after Republicans agreed to drop approval of the Keystone XL oil pipeline.

Crennen said Knife River’s major efforts this summer are a $10 million project for the Medford airport, a $3 million paving project on Highway 39 in the Klamath Basin, and a $3 million paving project on Interstate 5 on Canyon Mountain.

Road, bridge and other transportation projects have been relatively sparse in the region in recent years. However, Southern Oregon and Northern California got a boost earlier this month when a $7.09 million federal grant toward a $9.49 million railroad improvement project was approved.

The Bulletin

John C. Driscoll, author of a new book about the history of Gilchrist, was in his freshman year of college at the University of Oregon in 1974 when he read “Light in August” by William Faulkner.

“There’s a description of a mill town in there, and it just clicked,” says Driscoll, 56, a graduate of Gilchrist High School.

His senior year at Oregon, he’d write a paper about Gilchrist. Some 10 years after Driscoll first read “Light in August,” the paper would evolve into an article for the Oregon Historical Quarterly published in the summer of 1984.

Finally, this year, Driscoll self-published a 182-page history of the town titled “Gilchrist, Oregon: The Model Company Town.”

“The book grew out of the article, which grew out of the inspiration I had in Hendricks Park all those years ago,” he said, referring to the Eugene park where he’d been reading Faulkner. Today, Driscoll, 56, lives east of Bend and works in human resources for the U.S. Army out of the Clackamas Armory.

In 1900, company towns and camps — so called because they were built and owned by companies in order to house and serve their employees — were home to 6 percent of the U.S. population, he writes in the book.

Gilchrist was established as a company town by the Gilchrist Timber Co. in 1938, and was run so well that, Driscoll says, “it’s kind of a lesson about how to develop a town and how to manage a company.”

Making good use of materials housed in Klamath County Museum’s collection of Gilchrist Timber Co. papers, Driscoll’s book includes historic black and white photos and excerpts from newspaper articles and letters, along with interviews of longtime residents.

From the beginning Driscoll doesn’t just look at the 20th century in the book. He writes of how, in 1730, the Gilchrist family arrived in New Hampshire from Scotland. Among the descendents of that branch was Frank W. Gilchrist, whose business interests included timber. In 1901, he would dispatch to Oregon an employee who began buying up timberland, “where 36 years later his employer’s grandson … would establish Gilchrist, Oregon,” writes Driscoll.

Old-growth conifers rise above the muddy trail to Sol Duc Falls in Olympic National Park. This and other rain forest photos were taken with an Olympus TG-20 waterproof camera, minimizing the effect of a heavy downpour.

“Gilchrist, Oregon: The Model Company Town,” by John C. Driscoll, is available in Bend at the High Desert Museum and Des Chutes Historical Museum, in Prineville at the A.R. Bowman Memorial Museum, and at Gilchrist Grocery.

SUNDAY, JULY 1, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

A & A

Well-mannered Southerner ill at ease in East Coast homes Dear Abby: What is considered good manners when you enter the home of a 20something Northerner? I’m a graduate student who recently moved from the South to the East Coast. When I visit the homes of my Northern friends, I feel they are being rude for not inviting me to come in and sit down.

When visitors come to my place, I ask if I can take their coats, ask them to please sit and make themselves comfortable and offer something to drink. It feels strange to enter someone’s living space and not hear these pleasantries. It also makes me feel as if I’m imposing.

If others arrive around the same time, I try to follow their cues, but I still find it uncomfortable to just plop down and make myself at home. Should I just get over it? — Fish Out of Water Dear Fish Out Of Water: If you have been invited to someone’s home, then you ARE welcome. That your visit doesn’t begin with the customary rituals you’re used to does not mean that your host is rude. Yes, you should “get over it.� Just go with the flow — in time you will adjust.

Dear Abby: I don’t have a car.

I can’t afford one at this time.

For the last two years a friend has been doing me a favor by taking me grocery shopping every week. I can (and do) take the bus to the local grocery store, but it makes it easier to buy things in bulk with a car.

We have dinner, go to an occasional movie and generally have a good time hanging out.

I buy her dinner sometimes as a thank-you for her great help.

Recently, I got to meet a group of her friends. She introduced me to every single person by going over the whole history of my not having a car, and how she has taken me grocery shopping every week. All her friends began praising her for her kindness. I was upset and embarrassed that rather than introduce me as a friend

she instead portrayed me as an object of her charity.

I always thought she enjoyed our get-togethers. She used to rebuff any attempts on my part to make our shopping trips less frequent. Do I suck it up for the sake of our friendship, or do I discontinue or curtail our meetings? — Embarrassed in Michigan Dear Embarrassed: What your “benefactor� did was extremely insensitive. True acts of charity are done anonymously. For now, my advice is to suck it up not for the sake of the friendship, but to do so for the sake of the transportation unless you can find an alternative.

Dear Abby: When I was 15, my mother put away a large sum of money for me as a college fund. A few years later, she quit her job and began drinking and smoking heavily.

I have now graduated from high school and have discovered that when she quit her job she used my college fund to pay for her alcohol and cigarettes.

Yes, it was her money. But it was intended for my education. Am I wrong to be upset? — Disappointed Son in Fort Gratiot, Mich.

Dear Disappointed Son: Of course you’re not wrong to be upset. You wouldn’t be human if you weren’t. However, now that you know the money you were promised won’t be there, you need to start researching ways to finance completing your education. A place to begin would be your nearest library — or online. Also, many schools allow students to work part-time on campus to help with the cost of classes, so look into that, too. — Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscope: Happy Birthday for Sunday, July 1, 2012

By Jacqueline Bigar This year is preparing you and clearing the way to an even more dynamic time in your life from 2013 to 2014. What no longer functions in your life, and that which cannot be tinkered into working, needs to be let go. You are preparing for a new life cycle. If you are single, you might want to be cautious around a new unknown person. This person might not be all that he or she projects him- or herself to be. Time is your ally here. If you are attached, the two of you relate with greater intensity, for better or for worse.

Accept each other and refrain from passing judgment. SAGITTARIUS can be instrumental on a day-to-day basis.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You are often referred to as the sign of the pioneer. You will be off visiting yonder lands and/or developing the skills of an armchair traveler. Attempt to keep an exchange of different opinions lively yet not argumentative. Tonight: Tap into your imagination.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH You enjoy a partner, dear loved one or friend to the utmost.

You make plans that both of you find interesting. You will connect on a deep level, yet still keep it light with this mutual pastime. Tonight: Go for a one-on-one conversation.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH The type of demand and intensity that might be headed your way could overwhelm many people, but not you. If you act too quickly, you could miss out on the full impact of this experience. Tonight: Listen to offers first.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH Pace yourself. You seem to be carrying more than your share of responsibilities. Lighten up and enjoy bringing others together as only you can. Tonight: Relax as much as you can.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Your version of how to “live it up� delights others, as they toss their hats into the circle to join in the fun. Let the kid in you emerge more — that behavior is authentic, endearing and contagious. Tonight: As if there is no tomorrow.

TODAY DEAR A B B Y

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHH You might become overly tense when dealing with other people. You make certain assumptions and judgments about a situation that cause you to stress out. Make sure those judgments are right. Listen to what someone else shares. Tonight: At your pad.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Be aware of the many calls you must return, but also remain sensitive to that one person who needs your attention most. A neighbor or sibling has an important message. Tonight: Hang out.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Your words make an impact, but your actions are even more memorable. Conversations seem to take on a quality of control and/or dominance. You do not want to be involved in this type of interaction. Just don’t play along.

Tonight: Make an important call first.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH You are like a horse coming out of the gate in full gallop.

You are off and ready to do what you want. Curb a tendency to go overboard as you often do. Impose your own limits, and others will respect them. Tonight: Whatever you can dream up.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Listen to news with a grain salt. You might want to understand exactly what is happening here.

The unexpected occurs no matter which way you turn. You might not like what you hear, but you need to integrate this information. Tonight: Take care of yourself.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Where your friends get together could be a fun place to hang out. Let stress leave as laughter enters. You might have such a good time that there will be a repeat in the near future. Tonight: Don’t worry about tomorrow. Live now.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHH Invite others to join you and a loved one for a late lunch.

Everyone has a great time while also getting to meet some new people.

Ultimately you’ll relax — just a little later than everyone else. Tonight: A must happening. Š 2011 by King Features Syndicate

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, JULY 1, 2012

Olympic Continued from C1 Then it spills with ferocity — not all at once, but sideways, like mortar from a mason’s trowel — into a deep trough before boiling out an additional 10 feet beneath a wooden footbridge.

Above the falls, a primitive wooden shelter, built in the 1930s by the Civilian Conservation Corps, provided an enticing if temporary respite from the ceaseless shower. I paused there to exchange stories with hikers from Texas and Maryland before continuing on my way, thinking of the dry clothes that awaited me in my car, parked at the trailhead.

Extending more than 70 miles from west to east and around 40 miles from north to south, Olympic National Park is a 1,442-square-mile wilderness whose natural charms range from alpine glaciers to dense rain forests, from evergreen-shrouded hot springs to rocky seascapes. Four historic lodges in various corners of the park offer windows into this diversity as well as the gracious hospitality of a past era, even before U.S. Highway 101 was completed (in 1926) to circle the perimeter of what would become the park in 1938.

Retired ranger Roger Blain, now the activities and interpretation director at Lake Quinault Lodge, has lived in the Quinault rain forest since 1993. The forest averages 150 inches of annual rainfall, the highest level in the continental United States.

Colorful kayaks await paddlers at Lake Quinault, a five-mile-long lake in the southwestern corner of Olympic National Park. Shrouded by rain forest, operated as a fishery by the Quinault Indian tribe, the lake is the hub of a 31-mile scenic loop road.

Pacific rain forests “Think of this park as an old-fashioned wagon wheel,” suggested Roger Blain, the activities and interpretation director at Lake Quinault Lodge.

“Mount Olympus is its hub and the forests extend outward from there, like spokes.”

The boundaries aren’t quite that cut and dried. The “spokes” are far more prominent on the western flank of the park, where the Quinault, Queets, Hoh, Bogachiel and Sol Duc rivers flow toward the Pacific surrounded by dense forests of spruce, cedar, hemlock and maple.

The most prominent of the rainforests are the Quinault and the Hoh. Here, Spanish moss drapes from the long arms of big-leaf maple trees like pink cotton candy from a carnival’s spinning machine — except that this forest “candy” is 100 shades of green: sage green, olive green, murky green.

Sword ferns, many of which would stand waist-high to LeBron James, surround lacy vine maples wearing intricate garlands of raindrop-frosted spider webs. Huge trees uprooted by gigantic storms (including a 120-mph typhoon in late 2007) nurse new growth that finds nutrition in rotting bark and wood. Roosevelt elk and black-tailed deer forage the undergrowth, opening the floor of this thick canopy for a wide variety of wildflowers.

Quinault is the rainiest spot in the lower 48 states, with an average annual rainfall of 150 inches. Blain, a retired national park ranger who has lived in the forest with his wife since 1993, said he recalled one particularly wet year when 220 inches fell. “It doesn’t always rain,” he said, almost lamentingly. “But it does rain frequently, especially from late October through June. And it pours when it does.”

The Hoh is the park’s bestknown rain forest, and the only one with a dedicated visitor center. It is reached by an 18-mile, one-way detour off Highway 101, 13 miles southeast of the “Twilight” town of Forks and 54 miles northwest of Lake Quinault. Several short trails, one of them dubbed the Hall of Mosses, wind through this primeval woodland, enticing visitors to leave their cars, don boots and rain gear, and explore the fairyland-like forest

Knobby burls cluster on a spruce tree near Beach 1, in a coastal section of Olympic National Park. Hundreds of trees in this grove are blistered with the wart-like growths, which botanists say pose no threat to the trees’ health.

environment.

Quinault, on the other hand, may be explored on a 31-mile loop road that starts and ends at the Lake Quinault Lodge, two miles off Highway 101 and 40 miles north of Hoquiam, the nearest Washington city. Partly paved, partly gravel, this route circles lovely Lake Quinault.

The North Shore road is contained within the national park; the South Shore road, where the lodge is sited, is within Olympic National Forest. The lake itself is the property of the adjacent Quinault Indian Reservation, which maintains a thriving fishery.

Blain is so enamored by the surrounding forest that he chooses to make it his permanent home. He has seen black bears and even cougars in these woods, but far more frequently he enjoys the sight of rustbrown elk browsing in meadows, and occasionally bedding down beside the Quinault River. Merriman Falls is one of his favorite destinations, and he loves to show visitors some

nearby world-record trees, including an incomparable Sitka spruce (191 feet tall, 55 feet around) and Western red cedar (174 feet tall, 63 feet around).

Coastal foray Blain’s offices are at the Lake Quinault Lodge, a fixture on the shore of its namesake, cobalt-blue lake since 1926.

Black-and-white photos on the wall of the spacious lobby illustrate how it was built in 53 days by Robert Reamer, better known as the architect of the Old Faithful Lodge and other Yellowstone National Park hotels. It was actually preceded by a lodge that was built in 1894; when it burned to the ground in the early 1920s, along with its floating dance pavilion, no time was wasted in erecting a replacement.

Today, the Lake Quinault Lodge frames a broad grassy lawn that slopes gently downhill to the lakeshore. Five additional buildings extend to the east and west, bringing the number of guest rooms to 95.

The view from the dining room (I enjoyed the cedar-planked salmon) extends to a boatrental area beside a swimming beach; the lodge also has an indoor pool.

Another of Olympic’s quartet of classic inns is the Kalaloch Lodge, whose beach cabins overlook a rocky Pacific shoreline in the national park’s thin coastal strip. Fifty miles long but never as wide as five miles, this territory surrounds or abuts five Indian reservations (the Quinault, Hoh, Quileute, Ozette and Makah), dozens of beaches and innumerable picturesque sea stacks rising above the ocean surf.

Blain urged me to visit Beach 1, a mile and a half south of Kalaloch — not for its wavewashed strand, but for its “burl forest.” Although I never saw this feature indicated in park literature, I consider it a don’tmiss attraction. On a bluff above the Pacific, scores of spruce trees rise from a virtual garden of false lilies-of-the-valley. That might not be unusual in itself, but every tree in this grove, apparently without exception, is blistered with large wartlike growths. Multiple deformities appear on almost every tree.

According to an interpretive sign, the reason for these burls is unknown. Botanists suspect they grew around particles borne in the salt breezes. But they are said to pose no threat to the trees’ health. And they are truly a curiosity. At every turn of the short trail through the grove, I expected to see trolls popping out from behind the burls.

Beach 4, four miles north of Kalaloch, is known for having the best tidepools in the park. I didn’t stop, as I traveled through at high tide, but Kalaloch Lodge is glad to share tide tables enabling you to schedule a low-tide visit.

‘Twilight’ time Ruby Beach, eight miles north of Kalaloch, is arguably the most picturesque of the Olympic beaches. A trail from a cozy parking area winds downhill 200 yards, through tall salmonberry bushes, to the driftwood-littered outlet of Cedar Creek. Abbey Island and other imposing sea stacks tower above the sandy shore. I am told this beach is especially spectacular at sunset.

But the same might be said about Rialto Beach. It stretches north from the mouth of the Quillayute River, 20 miles

Olympia

north of Ruby Beach. On the south side of the river is the community of La Push, home of the Quileute tribe featured in Stephenie Meyers’ popular “Twilight” books. Tribal legend says the gods created this tribe by transforming wolves into men, so it’s not a stretch to imagine why Meyers allowed the Quileutes to shape-shift into wolves when vampires were in the area.

Both La Push and Rialto Beach are 12 miles west of the town of Forks, whose slumping, logging-dependent economy was largely redeemed by the success of the “Twilight” saga. Since the first book was published in 2005, and especially since the release of the first movie in 2008, fans have thronged to this town of 3,200 people to see the home of Bella Swan, the saga’s heroine, and to buy all manner of series souvenirs. The Forks Visitor Center can help diehards with a guided tour itinerary.

With another day or two, I would have continued to the park’s northernmost extreme, near Lake Ozette. Here, archaeologists have unearthed a native village buried during an earthquake centuries before white men ever visited the Northwest. The finest collection of artifacts from the village is displayed at the Makah Museum Cultural and Research Center in Neah Bay, the northwesternmost town in the continental United States.

For a traveler with an extra day, it is a worthwhile destination — 50 miles north from Forks or 70 miles west from Port Angeles, the largest town on the Olympic Peninsula.

Lake and springs On the second night of my

Olympic visit, I stayed at the park’s Lake Crescent Lodge, 123 miles from Lake Quinault and 20 miles west of Port Angeles.

Shaped like a resident Crescenti trout flipping its tail on a westbound swim, deep Lake Crescent occupies a glacial trough on the park’s northern edge. Clear, cold, sapphirehued water fills the 12-milelong basin beneath Mount Storm King. It has a surface elevation of 580 feet but a lake depth of 624 feet — 44 feet below the level of the nearby Strait of Juan de Fuca.

The lodge nestles midway on Lake Crescent’s south shore, where Barnes Creek, its principal tributary, flows from Aurora Ridge. Once served by steamboats from the lake’s northeastern shore, it was built in 1916 as a vacation getaway. Today the inn accommodates guests in six different styles of rooms and cottages.

Adirondack chairs that stand on a covered deck, beside the lakeside dining room, provide a certain flavor of yesteryear.

Ninety-foot Marymere Falls, a popular hike for lodge guests, is less than a mile upstream through a forest of firs and ferns. Naturalist Rachel Mills and her staff lead guided walks on this and other trails, as well as kayaking tours along the shore of Lake Crescent. And campfire programs are presented three times a week in summer.

It’s just 20 miles from here — eight miles west on Highway 101, then 12 miles southeast on a paved park road — to the Sol Duc Hot Springs Resort.

The springs, whose silica-rich, 104-degree waters have been captured in a series of three pools, have drawn visitors

since 1912, which is why the resort is celebrating its 100th anniversary this summer.

In addition to its springs, guest cabins and day-hiking trails — the rainy path to Sol Duc Falls is among my favorites in the park — the Sol Duc resort is a popular base for backpacking. Trails climb from here through the Seven Lakes Basin to the foot of lofty Mount Olympus, the park’s highest summit at 7,980 feet.

The park’s Wilderness Information Center (360-565-3100) has complete information for backcountry travelers and aspiring mountain climbers.

Ridge and port Park rangers will tell travelers that there is no better place to get a clear look at Mount Olympus than from Hurricane Ridge. I can’t confirm that with any degree of certainty.

A winding 12-mile road from the Heart O’ the Hills Visitor Center, 17 miles from downtown Port Angeles, elevates visitors to this mile-high (5,242 feet) observation post overlooking the valley of the Elwha River.

My most recent drive to the ridge, so named for the strong, chilly winds that gust across its treeless meadows, was not much different than previous visits. There was snow. There was fog. But when the clouds parted, there were glimpses of Olympus and its glaciers rising behind the Bailey Range — which meant, if anything, the weather was better than I’ve experienced here in the past.

Exhibits in a small visitor center identified each nearby mountain, with panoramic photos taken when the skies were actually blue. Other displays presented images of the wildlife that frequents the alpine meadows. On this day, only deer and marmots made their presence known.

I found Hurricane Ridge to be a perfect counterpoint to the rainforests that occupied much of my visit to Olympic National Park. The diversity of this grand park can only be appreciated by those who experience its extremes. And here, that means everything from mountaintops to seashores, plus the rain that falls between.

The couple were married June 27, 1987, in Estes Park, Colo. They have two children,

Mr. Neubauer works as an aircraft mechanic for Life Flight. Mrs. Neubauer works in the Adult Basic Skills Department at Central Oregon Community College. They both enjoy outdoor activities.

They have lived in Central Oregon for 23 years.

One of just a few men in the audience at a women’s health seminar, Dr. Ian K. Smith was listening when an attendee lobbed a question about relationships. “One of the panelists was trying to interpret the behaviors of guys and she could not be more far off,�

Smith said.

Already a best-selling author of diet and fitness books and a medical contributor on “The Rachael Ray Show,�

Smith decided then and there to write what became

“The Truth About Men: The Secret Side of the Opposite Sex� (St. Martin’s Press). “This is not a book about whether men are right or wrong. It’s a book about the reasons men do what they do,� said Smith, who is married with two sons.

What’s the biggest of the five ultimatums never to make? “Marry me or else.�

You just don’t want to go into a marriage that way.

A lot of guys will acquiesce.

But down the road he will be thinking he was forced into a situation.�

Q : A:

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — For the 50th reunion of the Sacramento High School Class of 1962, organizer Tricia Brown had big plans: cocktail hour followed by a buffet in a Woodlake Hotel Sacramento ballroom decorated in purple and white, the school colors — a glittery and festive occasion. “I see the reunion as a walk down memory lane,� said Brown, 67, a retired elementary teacher who lives in east Sacramento. “It’s fun to see people who knew you then.�

She has a Facebook account, which she uses mainly to keep up with relatives out of state — but she can’t imagine why anyone would prefer seeing classmates online instead of in person at a reunion. Frankly, the idea bewilders her. “You wouldn’t go to the reunion because of that?� she said.

That’s exactly the fear of people planning high school reunions: In an age of soaring social media use, when people can reconnect with long-lost and perhaps faraway classmates through Facebook and other sites, has the time-honored tradition of the reunion seen better days?

Experts say that attendance at the 10-year high school reunion has dropped in recent years. In general, a good reunion attendance is 25 percent of the graduating class, said National Association of Reunion Managers President Cyndi Clamp. Now, in her own St. Louis-based business, Varsity Reunions, the average number of attendees has dropped below 20 percent.

Even for people in the reunion business, it’s hard to figure out why this is happening, and whether Facebook or the economy is to blame. Yet reunion planners say young alumni simply don’t seem to feel the urgency of catching up in person when they’ve already caught up plenty online.

There is no question that Facebook’s influence continues to grow. The site reaches 72 percent of all Americans on the Internet, according to the blog Digitalbuzz. At the end of

March, it had 526 million active daily users around the globe, double the number two years earlier.

While almost half of the people on Facebook are in the 18to-34 age group, 30 percent are 35 and older. They include people who use the site as a way to keep up with their kids and grandkids, as well as people who sign on to reconnect with high school and college classmates from decades earlier.

In some ways, Facebook has created more buzz about reunions. Alumni form online groups for the purpose of planning and communicating ahead of time, and also keep in touch afterward. Whether this planning actually causes more people to show up is an open question. “If you don’t have a real community of people who feel connected anyhow, the best social media won’t channel them to the reunion,� said Andrew Shaindlin, assistant vice president for alumni relations at Carnegie Mellon University and author of the AlumniFutures blog.

Shari Sigl, 43, said she’s seen evidence of the Facebook effect among her classmates.

Sigl is helping organize the Foothill High School Class of 1987 reunion in August. “Because of Facebook, I see people interested in the reunion now who haven’t been before,� Sigl said. “I’m not sure that makes them want to come to the reunion,� she added. “People are already in touch. Why pay money for it?�

That’s the crux of the issue, not to mention the source of debate among event planners.

Some, like Clamp, think that introverts, party poopers and people with unhappy memories of high school are using Facebook as an excuse to avoid attending their reunions. “My perception is, most of these people were never going to attend the reunion anyway,� she said. “They just say it’s because of Facebook.�

On the other hand, Christian Brothers alumni relations director Nancy Smith-Fagan said: “I find that social media is really good at raising awareness, but it doesn’t necessarily move people to act.�

Gilchrist Continued from C1 Driscoll says the Gilchrist family perfected its model of company camps in Mississippi before moving to Oregon.

“The Gilchrist family took great care of their employees,” says Driscoll, whose father worked for the company.

“There are a couple of reasons for that: One, it’s just good business. If you take care of your employees, you’re going to have a stable workforce, and there are a lot of benefits that come out of that. The other thing was, they’re fundamentally decent people. If you were square with them, they were square with you.”

Establishing a company town also meant that the men could bring their wives and families with them. The working fathers and husbands “stayed sober and had better work habits,” he says.

“So the trick was to build something that the women

“The Gilchrist family took great care of their employees.… They’re fundamentally decent people. If you were square with them, they were square with you.”

— John C. Driscoll, author, “Gilchrist, Oregon: The Model Company Town”

would be willing to come and live in.”

Even early Gilchrist company camps of Mississippi in the 1920s and ’30s had electricity and plumbing. With each camp improving upon its predecessor, “when they get to Gilchrist, they take all those experiences they’ve drawn on and used them when they built the town,” Driscoll says.

“Gilchrist, Oregon” sells for $27.95 and is available in Bend at the High Desert Museum and Des Chutes Historical Museum, in Prineville at the A.R. Bowman Memorial Museum, and at Gilchrist Grocery.

Driscoll has been “pleas-

antly surprised” by the extent of interest in his book outside of Gilchrist, which Gilchrist Timber Co. operated until 1991, when it was purchased

by Crown Pacific. Later purchased by Interfor of Canada, the Gilchrist Mill is still functioning.

Yet the outside interest “makes sense,” he adds, “because there’s town-planning involved, the timber industry, Western history, the town itself and the Gilchrist family.

It’s an interesting story. The town itself was just singularly successful.”

harlie Rice made winning look so effortless.

Seemingly calm and cool during his entire final round, the Bend golfer dominated the field of nearly 150 amateur golfers at last weekend’s Mirror Pond Invitational.

Rice won by 10 strokes, and his 36hole score of 5 under par at Bend Golf and Country Club was the best at the annual tournament since 1960.

But it wasn’t always so easy for Rice, who at 47 is playing the best golf of his life.

ZACK HALL A recovering alcoholic who says he has been sober for more than two years, the married father of two teenagers says he is happier now than he has ever been.

And golf is playing no small part.

“That Sunday at the Mirror Pond is the feeling that (alcoholics) are searching for,” says Rice, who has lived in Central Oregon for more than 30 years.

“It’s that adrenaline high.

“I used to chase it through artificial means.”

CYCLING Tour de France at a glance LIEGE, Belgium — A brief look at Saturday’s prologue of the 99th Tour de France: Stage: The opening-day individual time trial took the 198 riders down the starter’s ramp one-by-one along a highly technical 4-mile course in the Belgian city of Liege.

Winner: Fabian Cancellara of Switzerland.

Yellow Jersey: Cancellara became the Tour’s first leader. Bradley Wiggins of Britain was second, 7 seconds back, and defending champion Cadel Evans was another 10 seconds slower, in 13th place.

Horner watch: Bend’s Chris Horner finished in 113th place for RadioShack Nissan.

Stat of the Day: 5 — the number of Tour prologues that the 31year-old Cancellara has won.

Next stage: Today’s first stage is a mostly flat, 123-mile loop from Liege to the nearby town of Seraing.

Having a blast

EUGENE — Minutes after Ashton Eaton set a world record in the decathlon at the Olympic track and field trials last weekend, he paid homage to the sellout crowd at Hayward Field, the storied track facility at the University of Oregon where the 10-day meet is being held.

“The Hayward magic does exist,” Eaton said.

Eugene, a city of 155,000 that also hosted the trials in 2008 and may do so again in 2016, calls itself Track Town USA and has perhaps the most avid track fans in the nation. Thousands pay $50 or more a day, often sitting for hours in the rain; thousands more pack the festival area behind the stands. Residents open their homes to the athletes, their families and the 1,800 volunteers who travel from every state.

Most important, Eugene has Nike, a corporate partner that not only underwrites many of the athletes, and the sport more broadly, but was born here nearly half a century ago when the famed Oregon coach, Bill Bowerman, used his wife’s waffle iron to create the prototype for the company’s first running shoe.

“This is Woodstock, a lovefest, not a convention,” said Greg Erwin, the co-chairman of Track Town USA, Eugene’s host committee and a distance runner at Oregon in the 1980s. “It’s about civic pride that we’re Track Town.”

Although the meet, which concludes today, has drawn record crowds, the city has its limitations. Even in June, there is plenty of rain and the pollen count is high, a problem for athletes with allergies. The city’s hotels are a mixed bag, and the airport is so small that many visitors fly to Portland and drive two hours to Eugene.

And despite the city’s rich heritage, deep-pocketed sponsor and made-for-TV venue, some track watchers argue that the trials could become too closely associated with Eugene and Nike.

SWIMMING: U.S. OLYMPIC TRIALS

Bend’s Madson fails to qualify

By Erin Golden The Bulletin

OMAHA, Neb. — With one last race at the U.S. Olympic Team Trials, Bend swimmer Logan Madson says he is ready to end his career — or at least he’s thinking about it.

The 25-year-old, who races with the Bend Swim Club, on Saturday morning failed in his bid to qualify for the Summer Games in Lon- Madson don in his second of two events at Omaha’s CenturyLink Center.

In the preliminaries of the men’s 100-meter butterfly, the race in which he made it to the semifinals at the 2008 Olympic trials, Madson placed 81st, with a time of 55.10 seconds.

Madson had been seeded 59th heading into the race.

“I felt good for the first 50 (meters), but I had a slow turn and that didn’t set it up very well for the last 50,” he said.

S B Soccer • Timbers shut out by Rapids: Jaime Castrillon and Conor Casey scored four minutes apart in the first half and the Colorado Rapids defeated the Portland Timbers 3-0 Saturday in Commerce, Colo. It was Casey’s first goal of the year. Colorado (7-8-1) snapped a two-game losing streak with the win. Jamie Smith scored in the 89th minute to cap the scoring. Portland (4-7-4) was shut out for the sixth time this year.

• Rodriguez lifts U.S. women to 2-1 win over Canada: Amy Rodriguez scored the winning goal in the 85th minute in Sandy, Utah, to lift the United States past Canada 2-1 in its final tune-up before the London Olympics. Rodriguez tapped Megan Rapinoe’s cross to Abby Wambach, who overran it just outside the 6-yard box. Wambach turned away from the net, recovered and then back-heeled the ball toward the goal where it deflected off diving Canadian goalie Erin McLeod.

The rebound popped to Rodriguez just a few feet in front of an empty net.

Gymnastics • Two gymnists picked for Olympic team: Danell Leyva completed an incredible journey Saturday in San Jose, Calif., earning a spot on the U.S. Olympic gymnastics team almost 20 years after he and his family arrived from Cuba. Leyva edged U.S. champion John Orozco by almost a point, finishing with 368.35 points. But the two finished in the top three in at least three events, automatically qualifying them for the Olympic team. The remaining three members will be chosen by a selection committee, and the team will be announced today.

• Wins his third race of the year in backup car

By Rusty Miller The Associated Press

SPARTA, Ky. — On his very first practice lap at Kentucky Speedway on Friday, Brad Keselowski wrecked his best car.

What could have been a devastating blow, ended up being a curious blessing.

Driving his backup, Keselowski raced to his series-leading third victory of the year Saturday night, grabbing the lead with 55 laps remaining and holding off all challengers in the NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Kentucky Speedway.

“It wasn’t the newest car we got, but it runs,” Keselowski said.

The 28-year-old from Rochester Hills, Mich., picked up his seventh win in his five years on the circuit.

He won earlier this year at Bristol and Talladega. He gave all the credit for the latest victory to his team.

“They put together a backup car from last year in 100-degree heat in one hour’s time to get me back on the track,” he marveled.

Kasey Kahne rode a late surge to second place, 4.399 seconds back of the winner.

So well was Keselowski running that Kahne, despite his fast finish, knew he needed help to catch him.

“I just hoped he’d run out of gas,” Kahne said, grinning. “No way I was catching him. We had stopped (for a fill-up) and I was hoping he’d shut down.”

Keselowski had just enough fuel to finish.

Brad Keselowski celebrates in Victory Lane after winning the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race on Saturday in Sparta, Ky.

Crew chief Paul Wolfe called the quick turnaround in cars “probably the toughest weekend our team has ever had up to this point.”

“I’m just really proud of everybody on this team, to pull out a backup car after having that crash on the first lap on the track just says a lot about all these guys,” he said. “To be able to have a backup car that is capable of winning a race says a lot.”

While registering his 16th career top-five finish in the 267-lap race, Keselowski, who led for 68 total laps, ended a lull over the past four starts where he had failed to crack the top 10.

He was driving his backup car after slamming the right side of his top car into the wall in the wake of a collision with Juan Pablo Montoya during practice Friday.

He admitted that he felt he had

The world’s greatest swimmers produced their most stirring duel yet at the U.S. Olympic trials Saturday night, going stroke for stroke in the 200-meter individual medley, never more than a few inches apart.

Their arms whirled in unison on the butterfly, then again when they flipped over for the backstroke. Their heads popped out of water as though this was synchronized swimming when they switched to the breaststroke. And, finally, they both gave it everything they had coming to the wall on the freestyle.

Phelps got there first, touching nine-hundredths of a second ahead of Lochte with the fastest time in the world this year.

The scoreboard from Omaha now reads: Phelps 2, Lochte 1.

“We were probably playing the catand-mouse game again,” said Phelps, who won with a time of 1 minute, 54.84 seconds. “Then, of course, the last 50 we went crazy.”

For Phelps, it was an emphatic message on his 27th birthday that he intends to turn his last Olympics into another major medal haul. For Lochte, it was a gutsy performance coming just a half-hour after he won the grueling 200 backstroke.

“The best thing about swimming is racing and stepping up against the world’s best,” Lochte said, sounding amazingly chipper before he returned for his third race of the night, the semifinals of the 100 butterfly.

Lochte finished third in his heat and set up one last race with Phelps today.

“Tonight was probably the most pain I’ve endured in a swimming competition,” Lochte conceded.

Phelps, the two-time defending Olympic champion in the 100 fly, advanced to the final with another fastest time of 2012, powering away to win his heat in 51.35. Lochte tied for the sixth-fastest time in the semi-

finals (52.47), but this isn’t one of his specialties. He’d need to pull a big upset to earn another Olympic event.

But, said his coach, Gregg Troy, “Ryan thrives on challenges.”

Lochte seemed to have Phelps’ number when he beat him twice at last year’s world championships, then kept the dominance going with a convincing win on the first night of the trials in the 400 individual medley.

But Phelps edged Lochte in the 200 freestyle, and now he has two wins in a row against the only swimmer who seems capable of preventing him from making another serious run at eight gold medals in London.

The two slapped hands while hanging on the lane ropes, then headed for the edge of the pool, fully aware the races that really matter are still to come.

“It feels good to be back on that side, but I’m sure that’s not going to be the end of us going back and forth,” Phelps said. “I’m sure there’s going to be some more races like that over the next few weeks.”

After he received his medals, the sellout crowd of more than 13,000 serenaded Phelps with a rendition of “Happy Birthday.” Then he trotted around the deck to hug his mom and sister.

In other events on the sixth night of the trials, Jessica Hardy made up for the disappointment of missing out on the Beijing Games because of a failed drug test, winning the 100 freestyle. Seventeen-year-old Missy Franklin moved a step closer to having a seven-event program in London, finishing second behind Hardy in 54.15, while 11-time Olympic medalist Natalie Coughlin missed out on her last realistic chance at an individual Olympic race.

“That was all my heart in that race right there,” said Hardy, who won with a time of 53.96.

Coughlin finished sixth, the last spot that can earn a possible berth on the 400 freestyle relay. But, at best, she would probably only get a morning swim at these games, a far cry from the six medals she won in China.

Motor sports • Schumacher takes No. 1 spot: Local favorite Tony Schumacher raced to the No. 1 qualifying position in Top Fuel on Saturday night in the Route 66 NHRA Nationals. The Chicago resident had a run of 3.763 seconds at 324.83 mph for his second top qualifying position of the season and 69th of his career. He has seven No. 1 qualifying positions on the track and three event victories.

been “pushed around” by Montoya on the practice lap and reacted angrily. He hinted that maybe he channeled that anger into the big race.

Denny Hamlin was third, Dale Earnhardt Jr. fourth and Jeff Gordon fifth. Hamlin announced a new agreement with Joe Gibbs Racing on his Twitter account just before the start.

“It’s a great day,” he said. “When you know you’re locked in where you’re going to race for a really long time, it’s a good feeling. Those guys (at JGR) have given me a championship-caliber racing team.”

A year after severe traffic congestion resulted in thousands of angry fans, there were few glitches after the track and government officials widened ramps and roads and added 20,000 parking spaces.

Defending champion Kyle Busch dominated for most of the first half of the race before he bumped into the wall and a broken shock absorber dropped him off the pace.

“We salvaged a heck of a finish for what all we had to go through,” said Busch, who ended up 10th.

With an uncharacteristic white paint job on his Chevrolet, polesitter and five-time Cup champ Jimmie Johnson led at the 200-lap mark but fell back all the way to 11th due to a flat tire. He rebounded to sixth.

“Up front in clean air that thing was blistering fast,” he said of his car. “I got back in traffic and just couldn’t go anywhere.”

Matt Kenseth, in action for the first time since announcing that he was leaving Roush Fenway Racing after the season, surged late to place seventh.

LOS ANGELES — Smokers and pro football players have something in common: They engage in risky behavior that can be potentially harmful to their health over time.

And to hear some lawyers tell it, the National Football League is the equivalent of Big Tobacco.

The recent wave of lawsuits filed on behalf of retired players uses similar arguments to those made by attorneys representing smokers who sued tobacco companies more than 15 years ago — in this case, that the National Football League knew repeated concussions could lead to brain damage and yet hid the information.

More than 2,400 retired players are now plaintiffs, looking for the kind of success smokers had against the tobacco companies. The result then was a landmark, $206-billion settlement shared among 46 states.

But the ex-players face a huge challenge as they take on a multibillion dollar industry that is the most popular sport in the United States.

“I don’t think it’s the same good versus evil you saw in the tobacco litigation, but there are some potential similarities,” said Gabriel Feldman, director of the sports law program at Tulane University. “It’s a lot grayer on both sides. That could change if some smoking guns are found during discovery if the case gets that far.”

At issue is whether the NFL knew if there were links between football-related head trauma and permanent brain injuries and failed to take appropriate action. Attorneys for former players such as Jim McMahon and Art Monk accuse the NFL of negligence and intentional misconduct in its response to the headaches, dizziness and dementia that their clients have reported, even after forming the Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Committee to study the issue in 1994. The league has consistently and strongly denied the claims.

“The NFL took a page right out of the tobacco industry playbook and engaged in a campaign of fraud and deception, ignoring the risks of traumatic brain injuries in football and deliberately spreading false information to its players,” said Sol Weiss, co-lead counsel for the plaintiffs.

The NFL has said it has spent

more than a billion dollars on pension and disability benefits for retired players in a partnership with the NFL Players Association. League officials argue player safety has long been a priority, and it makes health programs available to current and former players, including neurological evaluations.

“Any allegation that the NFL intentionally sought to mislead players or otherwise conceal information from players concerning the risks, treatment or management of concussions is entirely without merit,” the league said in a statement.

According to an Associated Press review of 95 lawsuits filed through last Monday, 2,425 players are now plaintiffs in concussion-related complaints against the NFL. The total number of plaintiffs in those cases is 3,762, which includes players, spouses and other relatives or representatives. Some of the plaintiffs are named in more than one complaint, but the AP count does not include duplicated names in the total.

Many of the suits were recently consolidated before a federal judge in Philadelphia, and seek medical care.

League officials have heard the tobacco-concussion comparisons before.

Three years ago, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell appeared before Congress regarding concussions and didn’t acknowledge a connection between head injuries suffered on the field and later brain injuries.

Several members of Congress were frustrated with Goodell’s testimony, including Rep. Linda Sanchez, D-Calif., who said the NFL’s response to the issue reminded her of tobacco companies saying there weren’t ill health effects due to smoking but later had to admit there was.

These lawsuits “could have been avoided if the NFL had taken proactive steps to address the issue — pardon the pun — head on rather than obscuring it,” Sanchez recently told the AP. “Common decency dictates that the league has a responsibility to these players.”

Yet some legal observers said the similarities between the tobacco and concussion lawsuits are superficial at best. Not only does the league have team trainers on the sidelines during games to gauge a player’s health but it’s difficult to determine what effect a concussion will have, especially if someone has suffered others in the past.

With the Red Sox’s infield playing in and expecting a possible squeeze bunt from Figgins, Seattle manager Eric Wedge let his little-used utility player hit.

• Atlanta 7, Braves 5: ATLANTA — Mike Minor won for just the second time in 12 starts and Atlanta overcame 104-degree heat to beat Stephen Strasburg and Washington. Strasburg (9-3) left after just three innings because of weather-related issues. He didn’t return to begin the fourth, tying for the shortest outing of his 33-start career.

• Mets 5, Dodgers 0: LOS ANGELES — Johan Santana scattered three hits over eight innings, Ike Davis hit a three-run homer, and New York handed Los Angeles its season-worst seventh straight loss.

• Padres 8, Rockies 4: DENVER — Yasmani Grandal and Alexi Amarista each homered twice, leading Edinson Volquez and San Diego over Colorado.

• Pirates 7, Cardinals 3: ST. LOUIS — Pedro Alvarez hit a grand slam in the first inning off suddenly scuffling 10-game winner Lance Lynn and Andrew McCutchen had two hits before leaving with a sore left wrist, helping Pittsburgh beat St. Louis.

• Cubs 3, Astros 2: CHICAGO — Anthony Rizzo hit his first homer with the Cubs, a two-run go-ahead shot in the fifth inning, and Chicago beat Houston for its fourth win in five games.

• Reds 2, Giants 1: SAN FRANCISCO — Giants nemesis Mat Latos pitched a two-hitter to win his career-best seventh straight decision, beating San Francisco for the second time in as many outings this season.

• Marlins 3, Phillies 2: MIAMI — Giancarlo Stanton homered and drove in two runs, Mark Buehrle pitched seven strong innings and Miami beat Philadelphia.

• Brewers 10, Diamondbacks 2: MILWAUKEE — Ryan Braun homered twice and Cody Ransom added a three-run homer to lead Milwaukee over Arizona.

SUNDAY, JULY 1, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

Track Continued from D1 “While no one’s complained about inadequacy in Eugene, there’s a risk that it might become too familiar,” said James Dunaway, who has written about every Olympic trials since 1964.

“No one wants to get Nike upset because they effectively fund USA Track & Field, so they’ve painted themselves into a corner.”

Rotating locations would allow USA Track & Field, the sport’s governing body, to rekindle interest in the sport elsewhere and potentially start a bidding war for the rights to host the trials.

“We don’t have Nike in our backyard, but we have a really engaged community,” said Sandy Hatfield Clubb, the director of athletics at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa, which hosts the Drake Relays, one of the country’s largest outdoor meets. “We have athletes who commit to the Relays because of the climate, the atmosphere and the bigger city.”

Des Moines and Drake, which will host the U.S. track and field championships next year, have shown interest in hosting the trials in 2016 and appear to be Eugene’s leading rival. Sacramento, Calif., which hosted the trials in 2000 and 2004, may bid again. The city has a top venue at Sacramento State University, excellent and predictable weather, a central location for athletes, many of whom train in California, and an ample supply of high-end hotel rooms, which Eugene lacks.

“They’ll have Eugene as long as Eugene will have them,” said John McCasey, executive director of the Sacramento Sports Commission, referring to officials from USA Track & Field.

“But it limits the growth of the sport to be confined to such a small part of the country.”

USA Track & Field is expected to formally open bidding for the 2016 trials in the fall, and the board could pick a winner as early as its annual meeting in December 2013. Max Siegel,

who became the federation’s chief executive this spring, said he hopes there are more cities in the running to host the event, not fewer.

“My hope would be for this trial and beyond that you’d have a lot of people excited about the property,” he said.

The challenge for Siegel, though, is finding another city that can drum up as much money as Eugene, which is so tightly aligned with Nike, sports business experts said. McCasey said organizers in Sacramento paid a $250,000 rights fee in 2004, twice as much as in 2000. Erwin declined to say what Eugene paid in 2008 or this year.

What is clear, though, is that Nike spends millions of dollars promoting the trials in Eugene. The company, which declined to make an executive available to discuss its sponsorship, is the only gold level sponsor of the trials. The Nike swoosh is everywhere, from the fan festival at Hayward Field to the buses ferrying athletes around town.

The budget for the 10-day event is nearly $10 million, Erwin said. Ticket sales cover more than half of those costs, and the rest comes from private donors and sponsors like Nike, but also BP, Safeway and Asics, a rival shoe company. NBC Sports Network, which is televising the meet, does not pay a rights fee.

Nike is also using the trials as a corporate bonding experience, bringing in bus loads of employees from its main campus near Portland to see where the company began. It is hard to imagine that the company would spend as much money on the trials if they were held in Iowa or California, sports business experts said.

“It’s more than a track and field event; it’s important to their corporate culture,” said Paul Swangard, who teaches the business of sports at the University of Oregon. “They can use the trials for their internal value that could never be replicated elsewhere. Eugene is sacred ground to the company.”

TRACK & FIELD: U.S. OLYMPIC TRIALS

Bend resident Charlie Rice chose golf over drinking and now practices his craft at least two hours a night.

Alex McDougall / The Bulletin

Course Continued from D1 If Central Oregon golf aficionados are not familiar with Rice, it would not be a surprise.

He won the 1988 Mirror Pond Invitational and attended Oregon State University with the goal of playing for the Beaver golf team. But until two years ago he had largely stayed away from competitive golf.

Originally, his reasons for cutting back on the game were like those of so many other young competitive golfers. The obligations of being an adult — a husband, father and business owner (he has owned Two Guys Painting in Bend since 1991) — trumped playing the sport at such a serious level.

Later, he says, alcohol and marijuana overwhelmed those obligations.

But now he’s back.

“I’m just really happy where I am right now,” Rice says. “I want to stay on this level where I am at. I am just glad every day.”

Allyson Felix celebrates her first-place finish in the women’s 200 meters at the U.S. Olympic track and field trials Saturday in Eugene.

Felix, Merritt make noise

By Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press

EUGENE — Allyson Felix might be grabbing all the attention at the U.S. Olympic trials.

She isn’t the only one peaking there, however.

Moments before Felix won the 200-meter sprint in a personal-best 21.69 seconds Saturday night, Aries Merritt also notched his lowest mark, winning the 110 hurdles in a worldbest 12.93 seconds to earn his spot in London.

Wearing bright yellow socks that blurred with each stride, Felix finished well ahead of Carmelita Jeter in 22.11 and Sanya Richards-Ross in 22.22.

In the 110 hurdles, Jason Richardson, the reigning world champion, was second in 12.98 and Jeffrey Porter finished third in 13.08 to round out the U.S. team.

The seventh day of the Olympic trials at Hayward Field started with Trevor Barron’s American record of 1 hour, 23 minutes in the 20,000-meter race walk.

But still hanging over the event was last weekend’s thirdplace tie in the women’s 100 meters, and it put all the attention on the 200.

Felix and training partner Jeneba Tarmoh finished the 100 in a dead heat that caught

Madson Continued from D1 The top 16 finishers, led by U.S. Olympic swimming legend Michael Phelps at 51.80 seconds, moved on to Saturday night’s semifinals.

Earlier in the week, Madson placed 61st in the preliminaries of the 200-meter butterfly, a race that was ultimately won by Phelps in the finals on Thursday night.

Though he was disappoint-

U.S. track officials off-guard with no policy in place to resolve it.

USA track and field announced a tiebreaking procedure the next day, but Bobby Kersee, coach of both women, said he wanted to wait until after Saturday’s 200 to decide how to break the tie, either by a runoff, coin flip, or if one athlete concedes.

A decision is expected this morning, the final day of the trials.

Because the top three finishers in each event make the Olympic team, USATF wanted the issue resolved tonight. But the U.S. Olympic Committee has a Tuesday deadline for naming the team.

Tarmoh finished fifth in the 200, the day’s final competition, and didn’t earn a spot.

“I guess it was all about fighting to make the team,” Felix said. “It’s emotional to try and make the team after putting in all the hours and work on the track. I wanted to leave it all out on the track today.”

Dancing in the pit after each clearance, Chaunte Lowe earned her fifth national outdoor title in the high jump. She won at 6 feet, 7 inches.

Brigetta Barrett finished second after successfully clearing 6-7, a personal best,

and veteran Amy Acuff was third at 6-4 3⁄4 for the other two spots on the team for the London Games. It will be Acuff’s fifth Olympics.

Acuff said she was burned out after Beijing in 2008. But after he daughter was born two years ago, the 37-year-old decided to try to make one more team.

“Deep down I felt like I had unfinished business. That’s ultimately what motivates me to come back,” she said. “I was fourth place in Athens. You always want another shot at it.”

Lowe broke the meet record of 6-6 1⁄2 set by Louise Ritter in 1988.

Hyleas Fountain won her fifth national title in the heptathlon, finishing with 6,419 points. Sharon Day was second with 6,343 points and Chante McMillan finished third with 6,188.

Fountain won the silver medal in Beijing, becoming only the second American woman to earn an Olympic medal in the event after Jackie Joyner-Kersee.

“I didn’t really have any pressure out here. I knew that if I didn’t do anything too crazy, I could go out there and make the team,” Fountain said.

Reigning world champion Christian Taylor won the triple jump with a leap of 57-10 1⁄4.

ed with his time in the 100 butterfly, Madson said he was still happy that he was able to make it to Omaha and enjoyed the hard work that got him to the trials.

Now, he said, he is looking toward stepping out of the sport — though he made no guarantees: “In 2009 when I retired, I thought I was done,” he recalled. “Now, in 2012, maybe I’m retiring … or maybe not.”

But Madson said he has

plenty of other things to fill his time, including a growing interest in photography, which he said he loves as much as swimming.

“It’s been 20 years of swimming, and at 25, I’m pretty content with my career,” he said.

The other Central Oregon swimmer who competed at the trials, 15-year-old Tommy Brewer, also of Bend, finished 117th in the preliminaries of the 200-meter breaststroke earlier this week.

Rice’s issues with alcohol began as a freshman at OSU. And quickly, school and golf gave way to partying.

His grades were abysmal, he says, and on the golf course he was “a little bit of a hothead.”

“I hadn’t really matured that much,” adds Rice, who never lettered for the golf team while at Oregon State but did meet the woman who would become his wife, Libby, there before he dropped out as a sophomore.

“For me it was the first taste of freedom and I was not really ready for it,” Rice recalls. “For that reason, responsibility kind of went out the window.”

Rice was fun-loving and impulsive. Once, in 1989, he took a job at a golf course in Hawaii on the spot while there for a family reunion.

He then coaxed Libby, his onand-off girlfriend at the time, to move there with him after she graduated from OSU; the two lived in Hawaii for more than two years.

“I just loved being around him, and I knew it would be an adventure, for sure,” says Libby Rice, who is now a Bend schoolteacher.

The couple returned to Oregon in 1991, got married and went back to school.

This time, Charlie took school seriously, and he graduated from Oregon State with a degree in business management. (Libby earned a master’s in education, also from OSU.) And he started a

business in Corvallis — Two Guys Painting — to help make ends meet. When the couple relocated to Bend, the business moved, too.

The booze?

“It was a constant,” Rice says. “I was an everyday beer drinker for sure.”

Even as his business grew and he became a father — first to Madeline, in 1996, then to Robert, in 1998 — he drank.

A beer was always in hand after work, he recounts, and the drinking typically would escalate through the night, ending with a giant glass of orange juice and vodka.

Still a golfer, he would order three tall boys before teeing off just to get through the front side.

“I would never really see it as a problem,” Rice reflects.

“It was just part of who I was.”

A problem The drinking was certainly becoming an issue, says Libby Rice, who notes that she often drank with him.

“It was accumulating, and I just knew how much better he’d be without it,” she adds.

“It was really the monkey on his back. It was getting progressively more prevalent. It was just there, always.”

The problem became clear to Rice on a March 2010 golf trip to Palm Springs, Calif., where after a day of heavy drinking — alone — he passed out in a chair.

“I remember waking up in the morning and I still had a drink in my lap,” Rice says. “I just said, ‘I can’t do this anymore.’ ” He returned home without having a drink that day and threw his marijuana pipe in an airport garbage can.

He tried to tell Libby that he was done with the drinking and the pot for good, but she didn’t want to hear it.

“She just said, ‘We’ll talk about it tomorrow,’ ” he recalls.

Before Rice made that trip to Palm Springs, his wife had already planned an intervention with family and friends.

Libby gave him two choices: Continue drinking and get divorced, or stay with the family and get some help.

Within an hour, he was on his way to a treatment facility in Eugene.

“It wasn’t one of those TV interventions, where I went crazy,” he says. “I didn’t want to be the guy in the apartment with no furniture sitting in a chaise lounge with a bottle and a TV.”

Sobriety and golf Golf is never far from Rice’s mind these days.

An artificial putting green greets guests in the front room of his southwest Bend home. The lawn of the colorful, manicured backyard doubles as a practice chipping area that includes a flag.

“When I quit drinking,” he says, “I was able to tell Libby that I wanted the golf course to be my new addiction.”

He was not using hyperbole. A member at Bend Golf and Country Club since 2010, Rice practices every evening for at least two hours. He also plays two or three rounds of golf a week.

His children are both golfers, too.

“I used to try to find ways to escape the family so that I could drink,” Rice says. “And now, last night, I was shutting down the (practice) putting green with my boy. That’s what I want to do.”

Libby, Charlie’s supportive wife of 21 years, wants to be around her husband more.

“I wish I could say that I was fully happy with it,” she says. But overall, she says, Rice is a better father, a much better husband, and an even better businessman.

“I think about him having golf and not having golf,” Libby says. “I like him having golf. It just feeds his soul. It’s just this happy man. And I don’t want to think about the alternative.”

He is also a better golfer than ever before, at least after he learned “how to play without alcohol,” he says.

Rice has won two club championships, made the cut at last month’s Oregon Open, and advanced to the round of 32 less than two weeks ago at the 2012 Oregon Amateur Championship.

Now his goals for his game go far beyond those of an ordinary amateur golfer: they include making a run at the Champions Tour.

Pro golf’s over-50 circuit is not entirely unrealistic, says Brandon Kearney, an assistant pro at Bend G&CC and a former Canadian Tour player who has played golf often with Rice.

“The best thing Charlie does is work really hard on his golf game,” Kearney says.

For Rice, like every alcoholic, the immediate challenge is staying sober each day.

His biggest regret? Not recognizing the problem earlier.

Still, he is remarkably positive about his future.

“Literally, I am as happy as I have been in my entire life,” he says.

That happiness is plain to see on the golf course.

And now there is no telling what the future will bring.

CYCLING: TOUR DE FRANCE

GOLF ROUNDUP

De Jonge takes 1-shot lead over Woods, 2 others

Christophe Ena / The Associated Press

Fabian Cancellara of Switzerland corners a roundabout on his way to win the prologue of the Tour de France, an individual time trial over 6.4 kilometers (4 miles) with start and finish in Liege, Belgium, Saturday.

Cancellara wins prologue

By Jamey Keaten The Associated Press

LIEGE, Belgium — Fabian Cancellara gave some joy to his troubled RadioShack Nissan team as the 99th Tour de France began on Saturday, winning his fifth opening-day prologue at cycling’s premier race in the same Belgian city where he edged Lance Armstrong eight years ago.

The 31-year-old Swiss rider proved he’s positively dominant in time trials over the 4mile race against the clock in Liege. This time, Cancellara outclassed another Tour title favorite: Bradley Wiggins, aiming to become the first Briton to win the Tour, was 7 seconds behind in second.

Cadel Evans embarked on his title defense in solid form, finishing 13th — but importantly, 10 seconds back of Wiggins, who many see as the main threat to the Australian’s hopes of a repeat. Cancellara is unquestionably the world’s best time-trial rider, but isn’t considered a Tour contender because he often struggles in the mountains.

“What a great opening — again!” Cancellara said. “I did the most I could. It’s not always easy. I always do the maximum ... It’s a great feeling and this certainly takes some of the pressure off.”

Bend’s Chris Horner finished 113th for RadioShack Nissan.

The Tour start offered a welcome return to racing — three weeks and 2,168 miles criss-crossing France, nosing into Switzerland, and scaling climbs in the Alps and Pyrenees before the July 22 finish on Paris’ Champs-Elysees.

Two other individual time-trials await.

RadioShack, built on the remains of teams that Armstrong led to a record seven Tour victories, has faced a rough patch.

Its current leader, Andy Schleck, is staying home to nurse a spinal injury he sustained in a crash in the Criterium du Dauphine this month; team manager Johan Bruyneel — Armstrong’s longtime mentor — is staying away to avoid being a distraction to the team and the race over a U.S. anti-doping case targeting him, Armstrong and four others.

In a further embarrassment, Enrico Carpani, a spokesman for cycling governing body UCI, said it received information from several RadioShack riders that they’d faced delays in receiving some salary payments. Team spokesman Philippe Maertens said he believed they had been paid, “and if not, there is a reason for it.”

He called it a “private issue.”

Brushing aside the team’s issues, Cancellara said he was focusing “on what I have to do — and that’s riding my bike.”

He said the victory, which he dedicated to his pregnant wife, was doubly rewarding because he broke his collarbone in the Tour of Flanders in April and wasn’t sure he’d be at his best for the Tour prologue.

Cancellara has now earned the leader’s yellow jersey for 22 days in his career, equaling the marks of other Tour greats, including two-time winner Laurent Fignon of France, American triple champion Greg Lemond and

Dutchman Joop Zoetemelk.

All of Cancellara’s prologue victories have been outside France: He beat Armstrong by two seconds in Liege in 2004, and also won in London in 2007, Monaco in 2009, and Rotterdam in 2010.

Wiggins, a three-time Olympic champion, said he believed going into the prologue that “there was a man who could beat me: There is always Fabian, he is the best in the world” when it comes to time trials.

“I finished second, so that’s a good thing,” added Wiggins.

“Physically I felt fantastic. I didn’t take any major risk because there were a lot of tricky sections.”

Evans, too, said he’d expected to be outclassed in the prologue, and put his ride into a broader perspective.

“Not good, but not bad,” the Australian said. “Of course I’d rather concede less seconds, you never want to lose time ...

I’ve got one (general classification) rider ahead of me, but I was kind of half-expecting that.

Wiggins, what his background is, is these short efforts.”

“For me the real racing starts tomorrow,” Evans added. “I’m just happy to get it going, and looking forward to some good racing. ... It’s like 6 kilometers out of 3,500 or so, so in that regard it’s a small comparison.”

His American team, BMC, had some bright spots.

In addition to the Australian’s solid performance, Tejay van Garderen, a 23-year-old American, placed fourth — 10 seconds behind Cancellara — and earned the white jersey for the best young Tour rider.

TENNIS: WIMBLEDON

Williams’ next opponent wins perfect set in third-round match • Kazakhstan’s Shvedova is only woman to win ‘golden set’

By Howard Fendrich The Associated Press

WIMBLEDON, England — Absolutely perfect — 24 points played, 24 points won.

Can’t be any better than wild-card entry Yaroslava Shvedova of Kazakhstan was at the beginning of her third-round match at Wimbledon on Saturday, winning every single point in the 15-minute first set of what became a 6-0, 6-4 victory over French Open runner-up Sara Errani of Italy. It’s the only “golden set” for a woman in the 44 years of professional tennis.

Of all the ways a point can be lost — a double-fault, for example, or an opponent’s ace; one ball that floats a half-inch wide or long or catches the tape of the net, say, or even a lucky shot off the other player’s racket that somehow finds a line, etc., etc. — none happened during Shvedova’s 15 minutes of fame.

“Apparently, it’s the biggest news of the day: I lost a set without winning a point. Unbelievable,” the 10th-seeded Errani said. “She was impossible to play against. I don’t even feel like I played terribly. She just was hitting winners from every part of the court.”

The 65th-ranked Shvedova didn’t even realize what was happening. Not until she was in the gym afterward, cooling down, when her coach pointed out the accomplishment.

“I had no idea. I was just playing every point and every game,” said Shvedova, a 24-yearold who won two Grand Slam doubles titles in 2010 with Vania King of the U.S.

Sang Tan / The Associated Press

Yaroslava Shvedova of Kazakhstan returns a shot to Sara Errani of Italy during a third-round women’s singles match at the All England Lawn Tennis Championships at Wimbledon, England, Saturday.

Shvedova did notice the way spectators at Court 3 applauded and yelled after Errani stopped the streak by taking the opening point of the second set.

“I was, like, ‘What’s going on?’ ” Shvedova said.

Now things figure to get a tad tougher. In the fourth round Monday, she’ll face Serena Williams, whose 13 Grand Slam titles include four at the All England Club.

“Hopefully I’ll be able to win a point in the set,” Williams said, somehow keeping a straight face. “That will be my first goal, and then I’ll go from there.”

The Associated Press BETHESDA, Md. — Tiger Woods played before the largest crowd of the day, even though it never topped 100. Brendon de Jonge had as many birdies — three — as people in his gallery on a strange, silent Saturday at the AT&T National.

A violent wind storm overnight that toppled dozens of trees and littered the course with limbs forced tournament officials to keep spectators and all but the essential volunteers away from Congressional for the third round. Considering the amount of debris, it was amazing they even played.

De Jonge was steady in the steamy heat for a third straight round in the 60s, this one a 2-under 69 that gave him a one-shot lead over Woods, Bo Van Pelt and S.Y. Noh headed into a final round that figures to be a lot more noisy.

Woods and Van Pelt shot 67, and Noh had a 69.

De Jonge, a South African going for his first PGA Tour win, made his final birdie on the 12th hole with a wedge out of the rough that climbed over a ridge and settled about 12 feet behind the cup. It was worthy of applause, but there was only one person in the gallery to see it — Kandi Mahan, the wife of Hunter Mahan.

Indeed, this was a day like few others on the PGA Tour.

A few volunteers, tournament staff and club members tagged along after Woods, and provided about the only noise of the round.

They watched him and Van Pelt get off to a quick start, and then match pars on the back nine to get close to the lead.

“I told Tiger that was a Bo Van Pelt crowd, so I was used to that,” Van Pelt said.

“I was very comfortable with 10 or 15 people watching me play golf. No, it was just nice to get it in. I think we’re all fortunate that nobody got hurt out here last night. It’s a credit to the grounds staff that they got this golf course ready. I’m sure if you saw pictures of what it looked like at midnight, the fact that we played golf today is a minor miracle.”

De Jonge was at 7-under 206 and will play in the final group with Van Pelt and Woods, who is going for his third win of the year. Woods won the AT&T National the last time it was held at Congressional in 2009.

Tiger Woods hits out of a bunker onto the 14th green during the third round of the AT&T National golf tournament at Congressional Country Club in Bethesda, Md., Saturday.

veteran who grew up in the area, had a 66 and was two shots back, along with Mahan, who stumbled to a 73.

Today might be a return to normal, at least with the noise, especially with Woods in the final group.

The final round will be threesomes going off both sides, giving the grounds crew even more time to clean up the course. For Saturday, it did well to put chain saws to the toppled trees and collects the hundreds of branches scattered across the fairways and pile them up outside the ropes.

It was the debris, along with some loose limbs, that led officials to turn back spectators for the third round. The Saturday tickets will be honored today, which could make Congressional even more raucous.

The third round was anything but that.

“It was like being on the Nationwide Tour again,” Kevin Chappell said after a 72 that left him 4 over.

The last time Jim Furyk played on a Saturday, he had thousands of people lining the fairways of Olympic Club in the U.S. Open. What a contrast to Congressional.

“It was peaceful, but just odd,” Furyk said. “It’s fun to get fan interaction, and hear cheers when you hit a good shot. We had more people on the Nike Tour than now.”

No one was complaining.

They were playing. And it didn’t take long for them to realize why no one was there.

Just walking up the first fairway, there were piles of branches off to the side.

Behind the second tee, an enormous tree — or what was left of it — was split in half. On the 14th hole, a 75foot tree had crashed across

the fairway. When the round was under way, only a 15foot section of the trunk remained on its side.

De Jonge made the adjustment quickly.

He hit a 3-iron into 2 feet on the par-3 second hole, the toughest of the day at Congressional, and kept it simple after that. He added a two-putt birdie on the par5 sixth, made his last birdie on the 12th and dropped one shot coming in on the 14th.

Also on Saturday: Rookie Felibert remains atop LPGA leaderboard ROGERS, Ark. — Veronica Felibert shot a 5-under 66 to stretch her lead to four strokes in the LPGA’s NW Arkansas Classic. The rookie from Venezuela continued her surprising run at Pinnacle Country Club, where she made the field as the second alternate. After missing the cuts in her previous three tournaments, she opened with a 65 on Friday to take a one-stroke lead.

Calcavecchia, Daley lead Senior Players PITTSBURGH — Mark Calcavecchia shot a 6-under 64 for a share of the thirdround lead with Joe Daley in the Senior Players Championship. Calcavecchia, the Montreal Championship winner last week, matched Daley at 12-under 198 at Fox Chapel. Daley had a 68. Second-round leader Fred Couples and Tom Lehman were a stroke back.

Donaldson leads heading into Irish Open finale PORTRUSH, Northern Ireland — Jamie Donaldson shot a 3-under 69 to take a one-stroke lead into the final round of the Irish Open.

Donaldson moved to 12 under despite a mixed round that featured an eagle, four birdies and three bogeys.

DAVID BROOKS

Roberts showed restraint W

ashington is full of arrogant people who grab power whenever they get the chance. But there is at least one modest minimalist in town, and that’s John Roberts Jr. In his remarkable health care opinion Thursday, the chief justice of the Supreme Court restrained the power of his own institution. He decided not to use judicial power to overrule the democratic process. He decided not to provoke a potential institutional crisis. Granted, he had to imagine a law slightly different than the one that was passed in order to get the result he wanted, but Roberts’ decision still represents a moment of Burkean minimalism and self-control.

Roberts and six colleagues also restrained the power of the federal government to sanction the states.

And, perhaps most important, he restrained future congressional power.

Over the years, the commerce clause in the Constitution has been distorted beyond recognition, giving Congress power to regulate all manner of activity (or inactivity). Roberts redefined the commerce clause in a way that limits the power of Washington. Congress will now have to be very careful when it tries to use the tax code and other measures to delve into areas beyond its domain.

There’s been a lot of overwrought liberal commentary on the supposed ideological activism of this court. In fact, with a couple obvious exceptions, this court has been remarkably modest. According to a 2010 analysis

by The Times, the Warren, Burger and Rehnquist courts overturned an average of nine laws a term, while the Roberts court has overturned an average of three laws a term.

And here’s the biggest gift Roberts gave to the nation: By restraining the power of the court to shape health care policy, he opened up space for the rest of us to shape that policy through the political process.

I spoke to some conservatives Thursday. They were disappointed by the ruling, but they were delighted with the language on the commerce clause. Most of all, they were excited about the coming political debate.

They remain sure that Obamacare is a fatally unpopular and flawed Rube Goldberg device and were energized to work harder for its repeal.

I spoke to some liberals Thursday, too. It was striking how quickly their comments moved from the past to the future — to the need to ramp up the exchanges, modernize delivery systems and build on the bundling experiments.

People in both camps seem to agree: We’ve had a big argument about health care over the past several years, yet we haven’t tackled the big issues. Crucially, we haven’t addressed the structural perversities that are driving the health care system to bankruptcy.

Liberals tend to argue that major structural changes can be made within the framework of Obamacare.

Republicans tend to believe that the perverse incentives can be corrected only if we repeal Obamacare and move to a defined-benefit plan — if we get rid of the employer tax credit and give people subsidies to select their own plans within regulated markets.

Personally, I think the Republicans’ defined-contribution approach is compelling. It’s a potentially effective way to expand coverage while aligning incentives so that people make costconscious, responsible decisions. But the truth is neither I nor anybody else really knows what works. We’re going to have to go through a process of discovery. We’re going to have to ride the period of rapid innovation that is now under way.

Hospitals are changing rapidly.

Federal policy will change rapidly, too. The policy changes over the next decade will overshadow Obamacare.

Roberts has made a period of innovation and change more likely. He did it by taking the court off center stage and by letting the political process play out. Self-restraint. It’s a good thing. More people should try it.

A model for

privatized government

P eter and Maria Hoey / New York Times News Service

By David Segal • New York Times News Service

SANDY SPRINGS, Ga. —

I

f your image of a city hall involves a venerable building, some Roman pillars and lots of public employees, the version offered by this Atlanta suburb of 99,000 residents is a bit of shocker.

The entire operation is housed in a generic, one-story industrial park, along with a restaurant and a gym. And though the place has a large staff, none are on the public payroll. OK, six are, including the city manager.

But unless you chance into one of them, the people you meet here work for private companies through a variety of contracts.

Applying for a business license? Speak to a woman with Severn Trent, a multinational company based in Coventry, England.

Want to build a new deck on your house?

Chat with an employee of Collaborative Consulting, based in Burlington, Mass.

Need a word with people who oversee trash collection? That would be the URS Corp., based in San Francisco.

Even the city’s court, which is in session on this May afternoon, next to the revenue division, is handled by a private company, the Jacobs Engineering Group of Pasadena, Calif. The company’s staff is in charge of all administrative work, though the judge,

Lawrence Young, is essentially a legal temp, paid a flat rate of $100 an hour.

“I think of it as being a baby judge,” says Young, who spends most of his time drafting trusts as a lawyer in a private practice, “because we don’t have to deal with the terrible things that you find in Superior Court.”

With public employee unions under attack in states like Wisconsin, and with cities across the country looking to trim budgets, behold a town built almost entirely on a series of public-private partnerships — a system that leaders around here refer to, simply, as “the model.”

Cities have dabbled for years with privatization, but few have taken the idea as far as Sandy Springs. Since the day it incorporated, Dec. 1, 2005, it has handed off to private enterprise just about every service that can be evaluated through metrics and inked into a contract.

To grasp how unusual this is, consider

what Sandy Springs does not have. It does not have a fleet of vehicles for road repair, or a yard where the fleet is parked. It does not have long-term debt. It has no pension obligations. It does not have a city hall, for that matter, if your idea of a city hall is a building owned by the city. Sandy Springs rents.

The town does have a conventional police force and fire department, in part because the insurance premiums for a private company providing those services were deemed prohibitively high. But its 911 dispatch center is operated by a private company, iXP, with headquarters in Cranbury, N.J. “When it comes to public safety, outsourcing has always been viewed with a kind of suspicion,” says Joseph Estey, who manages the Sandy Springs 911 service in a hushed gray room a few miles from city hall. “What I think really tipped the balance here is that they were outsourcing just about everything else.”

Park district should put bond on ballot

T

he Bend Park & Recreation District board is likely to put a $29 million bond on the November ballot. It should. The package of projects is the right proposal

at the right time.

Let’s get straight to the price tag.

In this economy, any new bill for taxpayers must be questioned.

For property assessed at $200,000, the cost will be about $4 per month or $48 a year.

What does Bend get for that $4 a month?

The biggest new building would be a 20,000-25,000-square-foot covered open area where the old Mt. Bachelor parking lot is now. During four colder months of the year, the plan is to have a full-size skating rink. That’d be a great new winter asset. During the warmer months, the structure could be used for multiple purposes — a farmer’s market, courts for basketball or pickleball and more.

The bond also has plans for the Deschutes River. It’s going to improve safety at the Colorado Avenue bridge and add a new area that could drive tourists to Bend.

The plan is to replace the pedestrian bridge, which now creates danger for floaters. Three new routes would be created — safe passage, a natural area and a whitewater play area.

Some of the bond money would purchase property to extend Bend’s excellent river trail system. Walkers, runners and bikers would be able to amble along the

Deschutes almost from Tumalo State Park to Sunriver.

It’d be hard to find another city in the country that could compete with that.

There’s another plus for the bond: It would help Oregon State University-Cascades Campus develop into a four-year institution. Some of the bond money — more than $1 million — would pay for a new roundabout at Simpson Avenue and Columbia Street and make other road improvements in that area. That’s necessary because of the district’s plans for the old Mt. Bachelor parking lot. OSU-Cascades benefits because it hopes to site new campus buildings there. The park district doing those improvements gives the hopes another push and one less bill to pay.

There are also plans to further develop Pine Nursery and more that we didn’t highlight here.

We know some homeowners would acutely feel even an extra $4 a month. Think about the benefits of investing now, though. It would be hard to find a better time for the park district to get deals on land prices, interest rates and lower construction costs. Investing now would pay off for generations of Bend residents. The bond is worth it.

Don’t require gloves for food preparers

W

ould you be safer from food poisoning if restaurant workers wear gloves every time they touch food?

There’s conflicting evidence, according to a report in The Oregonian, with some studies showing gloves can actually have the opposite effect.

Restaurant owners are citing that conflicting data as they resist the Oregon Health Authority’s move to adopt a no-bare-hand-contact rule. It would require food preparers to wear gloves every time they handle so-called ready-to-eat food; that’s food that doesn’t need any more cooking before you eat it.

The state’s move is part of a larger effort to bring state regulations into line with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s 2009 code. State rules are now based on the FDA’s 1999 document.

Critics say gloves don’t improve on effective hand washing, and in fact, use of gloves leads to less hand washing while creating a warm, moist place for bacteria to grow.

While regulators agree gloves aren’t perfect, they say hand washing alone is ineffective because too many food workers just don’t do it.

Opponents of the rule also say required glove use would add expense and waste, ironic in a town like Portland that has just banned plastic bags. And some told The Oregonian it’s tough to cook well with gloves; for example, gloves make it difficult to judge the softness of rice.

We’re in no position to judge the quality of various conflicting studies on the effectiveness of gloves to make food safer, but we do think it’s a mistake to add a new layer of regulation if the real problem is that people aren’t following the existing one to wash their hands.

How about an education and enforcement program instead of a load of gloves, which ironically still require lots of hand washing?

Yes, it’s important to keep our food safe; it’s also important to avoid ineffective mandates that are expensive, cumbersome and create more waste.

My Nickel’s Worth Don’t govern by religion Recently you published letters from people opposed to gay marriage who cited the Bible to support their view. These people think that their version(s) of Christianity should be the basis of our laws.

But there are dozens of Protestant denominations in this country, and many people are Catholics, Jews, Muslims or Deists. Which of these religions should be the “official American church�?

Of course, the answer is none.

The Constitution forbids the establishment of any one religion. It also permits the free exercise thereof — unless those activities are in conflict with secular law. Some recent examples before the courts: Can a member of the Mormon church have several wives?

Can a Sikh wear a turban instead of a hard hat in a construction zone?

Can a Muslim kill his teenage daughter because her behavior shamed him?

Can Adventist parents withhold life-saving medical treatment from their child?

These people are following their religious beliefs.

We are a diverse society. Most Americans say they believe in God, but there are many interpretations of what that means. The Bible is the answer to some, but it — or the Quran or the Book of Mormon — should not be the basis for our laws. Our secular laws already restrict many behaviors such as theft, assault or reckless driving. But we don’t execute heretics or witches anymore, and divorce and abortion are now legal. Without citing religion, what

is the argument against gay marriage? No group should impose their religious beliefs on others.

John Flynn Bend

Release documents I read the June 20 announcement that President Obama has used executive privilege to keep requested Fast and Furious documents from being sent to Congress. And I also read that this action is being justified because “other presidents have used the privilege as well.�

Well, fine. But is the entire Fast and Furious process and who created or authorized it, not now even more suspicious? If there is nothing to hide, why not turn the documents over? “Where there is smoke there is fire� seems, at least to me, to apply here. And frankly I resent the notion that we, the people of United States, are being expected to swallow this decision as if we are naive to the maximum degree.

Perhaps there is nothing to hide.

And perhaps if I were an Obama supporter I would believe that he has done the right thing. But I’m not and I don’t. People are dead because of the guns involved here.

We deserve to know the details of this project, and we deserve to be treated with respect.

At this point we are getting neither.

Why all the complaining?

I’d like to respond to the letter “Too much hyperbole.� I have been seeing several negative letters ad-

dressing The Bulletin’s editorial decisions to run letters from its readers, when they apparently “offend� someone. Just goes to show you, some people are just too intolerant of other people’s views. “Hyperbole� is an adjective just as “pathetically diminutive, hypocrisy, folly, knavery,� etc. are.

So why all the complaining?

It does seem though that this type of complaining is coming from a certain political spectrum, and I think the complainers should come out from behind the curtain, state their political agenda, then be done with it.

This complaining is not going to coerce The Bulletin to stop publishing the “emotional� letters from its readership of any political stripe.

God help us, however, if these intolerant people ever gain foothold in our newspapers and our government. They would surely establish a “Ministry of Truth� replete with a “czar.�

Cherish your freedom of speech and protect it. Now, did I use any “too big� words for ya?

PERS funding is the reason behind Bend police cutbacks

By Daniel C. Re June 17 Bulletin news story

by Hillary Borrud reported on possible drastic cutbacks in Bend police services. Whether those projected cutbacks actually occur will depend on how much money is available after expenses have been paid, and while it is impossible to know how much money IN MY will be available, one fact is certain. The cost of providing services will increase. Unless revenues increase at least as much as costs, services must be cut back. A major cost for the city of Bend and for most other Oregon public employers is PERS funding.

A review of Bend’s budget for the 2011-13 biennium shows the consequences of the PERS funding burden.

For 2011-13, the personal services budget which pays employee salary

A

and benefits was increased by $4.2 million. But that increase in funding did not allow city services to be maintained. Bend still had to eliminate 12 employee positions for 2011-13, including two patrol officers. This happened because Bend’s PERS assessment for 2011-13 increased by $4.6 million. Because the PERS increase VIEW exceeded the funding increase, city services had to be reduced.

Neither the Bend Police Department nor the city of Bend is responsible for this problem. The problem is the result of actions taken by Oregon legislators after they were first allowed to join PERS in 1971. From the start of PERS, in 1945, through 1970 legislators could not join PERS and PERS retirement benefits remained constant at 50 percent of final average salary after a full career and each

PERS employee was required to contribute to his or her retirement benefits. By 1981, just 10 years later, PERS legislators had doubled the retirement benefits, allowed public employers to require the people of Oregon to pay the PERS employee contributions for the employees and made the people guarantee that every PERS member’s employee account would never earn less than a minimum rate each year and they let PERS members decide what that minimum rate would be.

By 1983, 84 of the 90 legislators had joined PERS and to protect the PERS increase they had made from 1971 to 1981, they required Oregon judges join PERS. That stacked the deck 100 percent in favor of PERS since every PERS lawsuit would be decided by PERS judges whose own retirement benefits would depend on the outcome of the case. Prior to the 1983

change, Oregon judges had their own independent retirement plan and their retirement benefits were not affected by the decisions they made in PERS cases. In 1994, the people of Oregon passed Ballot Measure 8 which eliminated certain PERS benefits made by the PERS legislators. But in 1996, at the request of PERS members, PERS judges declared Ballot Measure 8 unconstitutional. As a result, the reductions in PERS benefits made by the people of Oregon were invalidated and the increases in PERS benefits made by the PERS legislators were restored.

Today we are paying the price for the actions of the PERS legislators. On July 1, 2013, new PERS employer rates go into effect. According to a June 18, 2012 Oregonian article, by Ted Sickinger, PERS estimates that the PERS employer rates will increase by anoth-

er $1 billion for the 2013-15 biennium.

That is the same amount the employer rates increased for the 2011-13 biennium. Unless government revenues for 2013-15 increase by at least $1 billion dollars, the new PERS employer rates will result in more service cutbacks in addition to the cutbacks made during 2011-13.

PERS legislators deliberately made PERS funding Oregon’s highest financial priority. They made sure that public services cannot be provided until PERS has been funded. As a result, the Bend Police Department’s projection of drastic service cutbacks may be very close to reality unless there is a huge increase in government revenue. Today, most legislators are still PERS members. The first opportunity to change that situation occurs Nov. 6. — Daniel C. Re lives in Bend.

It’s legal illegal immigration P

resident Obama recently issued an edict exempting an estimated 800,000 to 1 million illegal aliens from the consequences of federal immigration law. Ostensibly that blanket amnesty applies to those who arrived before the age of 16 and are younger than 30; who are in, or graduated from, high school or have served in the military; and who have not been convicted of a felony or multiple misdemeanors.

And while most Americans sympathize with helping those who were brought into the United States as toddlers, raised as de facto Americans and followed the rules, the policy of exempting hundreds of thousands en masse in the long run may create far more problems than it solves.

First was the cynical timing. In 2009 and 2010, Democrats had a supermajority in the Senate and a majority in the House and could easily have enacted such a law over all opposition. So why was the edict handed down in a tough campaign year?

Then there is a problem of constitutionality, an especially serious issue for former constitutional law lecturer Barack Obama, who ran on the premise that he would restore respect for the separation of powers. But as seen in the reversal of the order of the Chrysler creditors, the attempt to shut down a non-union Boeing plant in South Carolina, the

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON decision not to enforce the Defense of Marriage Act, and the recent use of executive privilege not to hand over Fast and Furious documents, this administration sometimes just bypasses a now-difficult Congress to rule by fiat.

The move contradicts Obama’s earlier claim that a de facto amnesty “would not conform with my appropriate role as president.” He later reiterated that “some people want me to bypass Congress and change the laws on my own,” but “that’s not how our system works.”

In theory, the federal government currently treats illegal aliens on a case-by-case basis, as it allots limited resources to determine who most urgently should be deported and who need not be. The president has added some vague qualifiers to his blanket proclamation concerning schooling and criminal activity.

But given that in a state like California, Hispanic males are dropping out of high school at a rate of nearly 40 percent, will the new policy result in summary deportations? That is, once we have chosen those who will not be deported, do we then go after thousands who dropped out, went

on state assistance or have been convicted of crimes? And how do we authenticate age and length of residency?

Not long ago, the president, in explaining his personal desire for some sort of amnesty, lamented to Hispanic leaders that they needed to “punish our enemies” at the polls.

But is illegal immigration always the single most important issue for Hispanics? Some polls show the Latino community divided almost evenly over open borders. That is understandable, given that the presence of 11 million to 15 million illegal aliens masks the national profile of Latino success.

In terms of the rates of assimilation, integration, intermarriage and economic ascendency, Latino Americans who legally immigrated to the United States are mirroring past experiences of successful southern European immigrants.

In Southwestern states, American citizens of Hispanic ancestry share in the increased costs associated with spiraling incarceration rates, plummeting test scores and overtaxed social services, which at least in part reflect the difficult efforts to accommodate those who arrived illegally from the poorest regions of Latin America. A cynic might argue that employers and identity-politics elites jointly welcomed in illegal aliens, the former wanting cheaper

labor, the latter wanting more constituents. But driving down wages in hard times and increasing government costs is not always beneficial for small businesses and entry-level American workers — increasing numbers of them Hispanics.

Finally, is it wise to tie our immigration policy so intimately to race and ethnicity, rather than individual merit and circumstances? Presently we equate massive influxes with Latin America and particularly Mexico.

But we forget that Asians now comprise the largest group of new immigrants. Almost all come legally, and many arrive with capital, college educations and specialized skills. Following the president’s election-year example, are we to expect the Asian community, in the fashion of Latino lobbyists, to demand even more visas for kindred groups? Should we now waive the immigration rules for economic refugees from the collapsing European Union?

The president’s decision is politically tainted, constitutionally suspect, cynically timed and poorly thought out. But it did result in one unintended consequence: We are reminded once again that there are millions of foreign nationals dying to reach the United States — and to stay at any cost after they get here.

involved. They wonder if the leaks have been directed, encouraged or authorized, and by whom. One way to get at that is the classic legal question: Who benefits?

That is not a mystery. In all these stories, it is the president and his campaign that benefit. The common theme in the leaks is how strong and steely Obama is. He’s tough but fair, bold yet judicious, surprisingly willing to do what needs to be done. He hears everyone out, asks piercing questions, doesn’t flinch.

He is Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Slayer.

And he is up for re-election and fighting the constant perception that he’s weak, a one-man apology tour whose foreign policy is unclear, unsure, and lacking in strategic depth.

There’s something in the leaks that is a hallmark of the Obama White House. They always misunderstand the country they seek to spin, and they always think less of it than it deserves. Why do the president’s appointees think the picture of him with a kill list in his hand makes him look good? He sits and personally decides who to kill? Americans don’t think of their presidents like that. And they don’t want to.

National security doesn’t exist to help presidents win elections. It’s not a plaything or a tool to advance one’s prospects.

After the killing of bin Laden, members of the administration, in a spirit of triumphalism, began giving briefings and interviews in which they said too much.

One of the adults in the administration, then-Defense Secretary Robert Gates, reportedly went to Donilon’s office. “I have a new strategic communications approach to recommend,” he said. What? asked Donilon.

“Shut the [blank] up,” Gates said.

Still excellent advice, and at this point more urgently needed.

Revealing secrets More from the Sanger book: During the search for Osama bin Laden, American intelligence experts had a brilliant idea. Bin Laden liked to make videotapes to rouse his troops and threaten the West. Why not flood part of Pakistan with new digital cameras, each with a “unique signature” that would allow its signals to be tracked? The signal could function as a beacon for a drone.

Why is this happening?

In part because at our highest level in politics, government and journalism, Americans continue to act as if we are talking only to ourselves. There is something narcissistic in this: Only our dialogue counts, no one else is listening, and what can they do about it if they are? ... But we are talking to the world.

Agents got the new cameras into the distribution chain of Peshawar shops. The plan didn’t catch Osama, because he wasn’t in that area. But “traceable digital cameras are still relied on by the CIA … and remain highly classified.”

Well, they were.

There was a Pakistani doctor named Shakil Afridi who was sympathetic to America. He became involved in a scheme to try and get the DNA of Osama’s family.

He “and a team of nurses” were hired by the U.S. to administer hepatitis B vaccinations throughout Abbottabad. The vaccinations were real. Afridi got inside Osama’s compound but never got to vaccinate any bin Ladens.

In the days after bin Laden was killed, the doctor was picked up by Pakistani agents and accused of cooperating with the Americans. He was likely tortured. He’s in prison now, convicted of conspiring against the state.

No word yet on the nurses, but stand by.

Sanger writes that President Obama “will go down in history as

the man who dramatically expanded” the use of drones. They are cheaper than boots on the ground, more efficient. But some of those who operate the unmanned bombers are getting upset. They track victims for days.

They watch them play with their children. “It freaks you out,” a former drone operator told Sanger. “You feel less like a pilot than a sniper.”

During the Arab Spring, King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia was insistent that Obama needed to stick with Egypt’s Hosni Mubarak, even, Sanger reports, “if he started shooting protestors in the streets.”

King Abdullah must be glad he called. Maybe he’ll call less in the future.

All of this constitutes part of what California Sen. Dianne Feinstein calls an “avalanche of leaks.” After she read the Stuxnet story in the Times, she was quoted as saying “my heart stopped” as she considered possible repercussions.

What is the reason?

Why is this happening? In part because at our highest level in politics, government and journalism, Americans continue to act as if we are talking only to ourselves. There is something narcissistic in this: Only our dialogue counts, no one else is listening, and what can they do about it if they are? There is something childish in it: Knowing secrets is cool, and telling them is cooler. But we are talking to the world.

Should it know how, when and with whose assistance we gather intelligence? Should it know our methods? Will this make us safer?

Liberally quoted in the Sanger book is the White House national security adviser, Thomas Donilon.

When I was a child, there was a doll called Chatty Cathy. You pulled a string in her back, and she babbled inanely. Tom Donilon appears to be the Chatty Cathy of the American intelligence community.

It is good Congress has become

The fear factor I

f there is one thought that summarizes the strength and weakness of the Arab awakenings, it’s the one offered by Daniel Brumberg, a co-director of the democracy and governance studies program at Georgetown University, who observed that the Arab awakenings happened because the Arab peoples stopped fearing their leaders — but they stalled because the Arab peoples have not stopped fearing each other.

This dichotomy is no surprise.

That culture of fear was exactly what the dictators fed off of and nurtured.

Most of them ran their countries like Mafia dons operating “protection rackets.” They wanted their people to fear each other more than the leader, so each dictator or monarch could sit atop the whole society, doling out patronage and protection, while ruling with an iron fist. But it will take more than just decapitating these regimes to overcome that legacy. It will take a culture of pluralism and citizenship.

Until then, tribes will still fear tribes in Libya and Yemen, sects will still fear sects in Syria and Bahrain, the secular and the Christians will still fear the Islamists in Egypt and Tunisia and the philosophy of “rule or die” will remain a potent competitor to “one man, one vote.”

You would have to be very naive to think that transitioning from these primordial identities to “citizens” would be easy, or even likely. It took two centuries of struggle and compromise for America to get to a point where it could elect a black man with the middle name Hussein as president and then consider replacing him with a Mormon. And that is in a country of immigrants.

But you would also have to be blind and deaf to the deeply authentic voices and aspirations that triggered these Arab awakenings not to realize that, in all these countries, there is a longing — particularly among young Arabs — for real citizenship and accountable and participatory government.

Precisely because Egypt is the opposite of Las Vegas — what happens there never stays there — the way in which the newly elected president, Mohammed Morsi, the candidate of the Muslim Brotherhood, ultimately learns to work with the secular, liberal, Salafist and Christian elements of Egyptian society will have a huge impact on all the other Arab awakenings. If Egyptians can forge a workable social contract to govern themselves, it will set an example for the whole region. America midwifed that social contract-writing in Iraq, but Egypt will need a Nelson Mandela.

Can Morsi play that Mandela role?

Does he have any surprise in him?

The early indications are mixed at best. “As Mohammed Morsi prepares to become Egypt’s first democratically elected president,” Brumberg wrote on www.foreignpolicy.com, “he will have to decide who he really is: a political unifier who wants one ‘Egypt for all Egyptians’ as he said shortly after he was declared president, or an Islamist partisan devoted to the very proposition that he repeated during the first round of the election campaign, namely that ‘the Quran is our constitution.’

“This is not so much an intellectual choice as it is a political and practical one,” he added.

It is incumbent on the Muslim Brotherhood to now authentically reach out to the other 50 percent of Egypt — the secular, liberal, Salafist and Christian elements — and assure them that not only will they not be harmed, but that their views and aspirations will be balanced alongside the Brotherhood’s. That is going to require, over time, a revolution in thinking by the Muslim Brotherhood leadership and rank-and-file to actually embrace religious and political pluralism as they move from opposition to governance.

The United States’ support will be conditioned on certain principles.

What principles? Our principles?

No. The principles identified by the 2002 U.N. Arab Human Development Report, which was written by and for Arabs. It said that for the Arab world to thrive it needs to overcome its deficit of freedom, its deficit of knowledge and its deficit of women’s empowerment. And, I would add, its deficit of religious and political pluralism. We should help any country whose government is working on that agenda — including an Egypt led by a Muslim Brotherhood President — and we should withhold our support from any that is not.

Who has benefited from all the leaks? hat is happening with all these breaches of our national security? Why are intelligence professionals talking so much — divulging secret and sensitive information for all the world to see, and for our adversaries to contemplate?

In the past few months we have read that the U.S. penetrated al Qaida in Yemen and foiled a terror plot; that the Stuxnet cyberworm, which caused chaos in the Iranian nuclear program, was a joint Israeli-American operation; and that President Obama personally approves every name on an expanding “kill list” of those targeted and removed from life by unmanned drones. According to The New York Times, Obama pores over “suspects’ biographies” in “what one official calls ‘the macabre ‘baseball cards’ of an unconventional war.”

From David Sanger’s new book, “Confront and Conceal: Obama’s Secret Wars and Surprising Use of American Power,” we learn that Stuxnet was “the most sophisticated, complex cyberattack the United States had ever launched.” Its secret name was “Olympic Games.” America and Israel developed the “malicious software” together, the U.S. at Fort Meade, Md., where it keeps “computer warriors,” Israel at a military intelligence agency it “barely acknowledges exists.”

The Pentagon has built a replica of Iran’s Natanz enrichment plant. The National Security Agency “routinely taps the ISI’s cellphones” — that’s the Pakistani intelligence agency. A “secret” U.S. program helps Pakistan protect its nuclear facilities; it involves fences and electronic padlocks. Still, insurgents bent on creating a dirty bomb, if they have a friend inside, can slip out “a few grams of nuclear material at a time” and outwit security systems targeted at major theft.

In any case, there’s a stockpile of highly enriched uranium sitting “near an aging research reactor in Pakistan.” It could be used for several dirty bombs.

It’s a good thing our enemies can’t read. Wait, they can! They can download all this onto their iPads at a cafe in Islamabad.

It’s all out there now. Mr. Sanger’s sources are, apparently, high administration officials, whose diarrhetic volubility marks a real breakthrough in the history of indiscretion.

What are they thinking? That in the age of Wikileaks the White House itself should be one big Wikileak?

Lisa Unger tackles choices about love “Heartbroken”

by Lisa Unger (Crown, 384 pgs., $24)

By Oline H. Cogdill Sun Sentinel (Florida)

Who we love, how we love and why we love says as much about each of us as it does the objects of our affections. And while people can debate until the end of time, if we have a choice about who we love, we certainly can choose what we do about that love.

Best-selling author Lisa Unger tackles those choices about love as well as questions of identity in her suspenseful stand-alone novel “Heartbroken.” Unger posits three women, each reaching a crisis in their lives and unsure what to do about it in her 12th novel. “Heartbroken” works well as an intense psychological thriller that explores a family with a complexity of relationships, destructive secrets and uneasy legacies. This is familiar territory for the author, but Unger brings fresh and original storytelling.

Heart Island, located in the middle of a lake in the Adirondacks, sounds so restful and charming, but it has been anything but for Birdie, the wealthy matriarch of the Burke family. The overbearing Birdie loves the island and the family mansion, probably more than she does her husband and her children. So the mandatory annual family gettogether always explodes with emotional landmines.

Birdie’s son flat out refuses to come but her daughter Kate is coming, although she believes the visit will be even more unpleasant.

Unger gracefully explores the impact of the intersection of these three lives and the power that each has to decide her future.

Unger keeps the tension high in the riveting “Heartbroken” as she delves deep into each woman’s psyche as she shows how smallest decision can have far-reaching consequences.

A 4-year project displays stress, joy of U.S. families one because we don’t know how to recoup that value.

Maybe we think we’ll sell it on eBay or have a garage sale.

So it goes into the garage and there it stays because we so busy, we’re hyper-busy.

By Penelope Green New York Times News Service

From 2001 to 2005, a team of social scientists studied 32 middle-class families in Los Angeles, a project documenting every wiggle of life at home. The study was generated by the UCLA Center on the Everyday Lives of Families to understand how people handled what anthropologists call material culture — what we call stuff. These were dualearner households in a range of ethnic groups, neighborhoods, incomes and occupations, with at least two children between the ages of 7 and 12 — in other words, households smack in the weeds of family life.

What the researchers gleaned was an unflinching view of the American family, with all its stresses and joys on display. They have organized their findings into a book, scheduled to be available next week, called “Life at Home in the 21st Century.”

It’s full of intriguing data points about the number of possessions the families owned (literally, thousands), much of it children’s toys.

Women’s stress-hormone levels spiked when confronted with family clutter; the men’s, not so much. Finally, there was a direct relationship between the amount of magnets on refrigerators and the amount of stuff in a household.

One of the authors, Anthony Graesch, 38, an assistant professor of anthropology at Connecticut College, was a newly married, childless graduate student when the study was conducted (his co-authors are Jeanne E. Arnold, Enzo Ragazzini and Elinor Ochs). What Graesch witnessed as a lead researcher deeply imprinted his behavior as a husband and father, he said, in a recent interview.

By Lezlie Patterson McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Johanna Lindsey, one of the best writers of historical romance, has once again created a lighthearted story that will enchant and delight.

“Let Love Find You” is an ex-

quisitely written story offering readers engaging characters with a blend of humor, passion and charm mixed with a dab of suspense.

Devin is an intriguing hero.

He lives life unapologetically in the middle of societies. He is the illegitimate, unclaimed son of a peer, raised by his aunt and uncle and works as a horse breeder and trainer. He’s also a

hunk. And a matchmaker.

Devin stumbles upon a unique way to find romantic matches for couples, and his reputation dubs him the nickname of Cupid. It amuses him.

Amanda, on the other hand, isn’t amused — by anything about Devin. Watching Devin and Amanda fight their attraction is fun; watching them succumb to it is even more fun.

Take a peek into upper-crust societyin ‘Seating’ Book reveals “Seating Arrangements”

by Maggie Shipstead (Knopf, 299 pgs., $25.95)

By Amanda St. Amand St. Louis Post-Dispatch

If you are deeply entrenched in the upper-crust of society, complete with summer houses, college clubs and country clubs, “Seating Arrangements” might hit a bit too close to home.

Then again, even those readers likely will find Maggie Shipstead’s sharp debut novel

Private Continued from F1 Does the Sandy Springs approach work? It does for Sandy Springs, says the city manager, John McDonough, who points not only to the town’s healthy balance sheet but also to high marks from residents on surveys about quality of life and quality of government services.

But that doesn’t mean “the model” can be easily exported — Sandy Springs has the built-in advantage that comes from wealth — or that its widespread adoption would enhance the commonwealth.

Critics contend that the town is a white-flight suburb that has essentially seceded from Fulton County, a 70-mile-long stretch that includes many poor and largely AfricanAmerican areas, most of them in Atlanta and points south.

The prospect of more Sandy Springs-style incorporations concerns people like Evan McKenzie, author of “Privatopia: Homeowner Associations and the Rise of Residential Private Government.” He worries that rich enclaves may decide to become gated communities writ large, walling themselves off from areas that are economically distressed.

“You could get into a ‘two Americas’ scenario here,” he says. “If we allow the more affluent to institutionally isolate themselves, then the poor are supposed to do — what?

They’re supposed to have all the poverty and all the social problems and deal with them?”

The champions of Sandy Springs counter that they still send plenty of tax dollars to the county and that race had nothing to do with the decision to incorporate. (The town’s minority population is now 30 percent and growing, they note.) Leaders here say they had simply grown tired of the municipal service offered by Fulton County.

“We make no apologies for being more affluent than other parts of the metro area,” says Eva Galambos, the mayor of Sandy Springs. And what does she make of the attitude of the town’s detractors? “Pure envy,” she says.

Nothing about Sandy Springs hints that it is one of the country’s purest examples of a contract city. Even those city hall employees betray no sign that they work for a jumble of corporations. Drive around and you’ll see a nondescript upscale suburb, where the most notable features are traffic lights that seem to take five minutes to turn green.

There is no downtown, or at least anything that looks like a main street. Instead, there are strip malls with plenty of usual-suspect franchises — although one strip mall, oddly enough, includes a small museum that tells the story of Anne Frank.

The town is home to offices of United Parcel Service, Hardee’s and other corporations, and it also serves as a bedroom community for Atlanta. Residents include Herman Cain, members of the Atlanta Braves and the Atlanta Falcons, and executives at Delta Air Lines, CNN and other companies. This is also home to the rapper and producer Akon, whose house was featured in an episode of “Cribs” on MTV. “A few years ago, I got a call from his head of security,” says Kenneth DeSimone, the deputy chief of police, who is giving a tour of the town one May afternoon. It turned out that somebody had stolen a pistol and a laptop from Akon’s home.

“He seemed really focused on the laptop and I was looking around this guy’s house thinking, ‘What is the big deal with this laptop? He can afford

a witty and spot-on satire that looks at the world of Winn and Biddy Van Meter and their uptight New England existence.

“Seating Arrangements” covers just three days in the family’s life as they prepare for pregnant daughter Daphne’s wedding at their summer home to an affable and equally well-off groom named Greyson.

But nothing is simple, and

Shipstead does a fine job of introducing the many complications: Winn’s longstanding crush on one of the bridesmaids, and the other daughter’s recent abortion and heartbreak over being jilted. Mix in a variety of smaller dramas — the groom’s manwhore brother, Winn’s longing for an invitation to an exclusive club and a hard-drinking aunt — and readers get a feel for the long-

held resentments and dramas that make up a family.

Winn and other daughter, Livia, are the most fully developed characters. Winn long has followed the proper script for a proper life. How proper?

Shipstead takes Winn to the edge, but she doesn’t push him.

That will be a relief to readers who will grow to at least understand him even if they don’t particularly like what he represents.

For a first novel, Shipstead delivers a delight.

another one.’ Turns out, there was a bunch of new Lady Gaga demos on it. Worth millions.”

That crime was solved when an informant helped lead the police to some young people who, DeSimone said, had no idea whose home they had entered and what was stored on the computer.

The car driven by DeSimone says “Sandy Springs” on the side, which is one reason that this town can’t claim to be the most outsourced city in the United States. That distinction probably belongs to Maywood, Calif., eight miles southeast of Los Angeles, which in 2010 fired all but one employee, its city manager. Maywood is now operated, from top to bottom, through contracts. The police officers are members of the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, paid a combined $3.5 million a year to patrol the streets, according to Felipe Aguirre, a council member.

But Maywood was pushed to extreme measures after it flirted with bankruptcy and lost insurance coverage for its public workforce. Sandy Springs went the public-private partnership route by choice, and it evangelizes about its success.

rating a city is dull. Superduper dull. The book is composed mostly of the codicils, requests for proposals and definitions of duties that were required to jolt Sandy Springs to life.

Without a love of minutiae and a very long attention span, this is a work that could induce deep sleep. But this is intended as a blueprint, not a gripping narrative. Porter regards the success of Sandy Springs as a way out of the financial morass that has engulfed so many cities in the aftermath of the Great Recession.

“Many are on the verge of bankruptcy,” Porter says.

“They have significant unfunded liabilities, like pensions and other benefits. It’s almost like a poison that a lot of people are unaware of, and this model could be an answer.”

can. They’re not our people to control any more.”

McDonough, the Sandy Springs city manager, says the town has sidestepped such problems. The key, he explains, lay in the fine art of drafting contracts.

Initially, and for the first five years of its life, Sandy Springs used just one company, CH2M Hill, based in Englewood, Colo., to handle every service it delivered. McDonough says that CH2M saved the town millions compared with the cost of hiring a conventional public workforce, but last year Sandy Springs sliced the work into different pieces and solicited competitive bids.

When the competition was over, the town had spread duties to a handful of corporations and total annual outlays dropped by $7 million. (Representatives of CH2M, which still has a call-center contract, said at the time that they were “deeply disappointed” by the results, but wished the city well, according to a local news report.)

To dissuade companies from raising prices or reducing the quality of service, the town awarded contracts to a couple of losing bidders for every winner it hired. The contracts do not come with any pay or any work — unless the winning bidder that prevailed fails to deliver. It’s a bit like the Miss America pageant anointing the runner-up as the one who will fulfill the winner’s duties if, for some reason, Miss America cannot.

“In most cases, Miss America serves her whole term,” McDonough says, warming to the analogy. “But every once in a while something happens and they don’t have to run a whole new competition.”

The privatized approach saves money, he continues, because corporations hire superior workers and give them better training than that found in the public sector. Work handled by 15 public employees can be done by 12 privately employed workers, he says: “It’s all about the caliber of employee and the customer focus that comes out of the private sector.”

Chief architect Few have more zeal than Oliver Porter, a founding father and architect in chief.

With his gray beard and thick gray hair, Porter is a beatnik version of John Updike with a Southern drawl and a pipe. He is sitting one morning in a tiny room in his basement, which has a small desk, a chair and a psychiatrist’s couch. A parachute is spread out along the ceiling, like a canopy, and a mural of an ancient Roman landscape — Porter’s handiwork — adorns one wall.

This unassuming nook is where every element of Sandy Springs was conceived and designed. With the title of interim city manager, Porter drafted requests for proposals and fielded calls here, often from people who imagined him in charge of a small battalion of employees.

“One day a lady called and said: ‘Oh, Mr. Porter, I didn’t mean to interrupt you. May I speak to your staff?’” he recalls. Reliving the moment, he picks up the phone, puts it to one ear and then switches to the other.

“Staff speaking,” he told the caller, in a slightly deeper voice.

Porter, a retired AT&T engineer, was an advocate of the town when it was a hopeless cause, during the many years when Democrats blocked efforts to let a largely Republican and white suburb cleave itself from Fulton County. One Democratic legislator vowed that Sandy Springs would incorporate “when pigs fly,” a phrase that Galambos has since adopted as the name of her blog.

After an election in 2004, both houses of Georgia’s legislature were controlled by Republicans for the first time since Reconstruction.

“It was like a dog that’s been chasing a train for years and finally catches it,” Porter says.

“The question was, What do I do with it now?”

As a fan of Ronald Reagan and the economist Friedrich Hayek, Porter came naturally to the notion that Sandy Springs could push “the model” to its nth degree. His philosophical inclinations were formed by a life spent in private enterprise, and cemented by a visit to Weston, Fla., a town that had begun as a series of gated communities.

Porter tells this and other stories in “Creating the New City of Sandy Springs,” a book that will leave readers with one indelible lesson: incorpo-

Failures and successes Hovering around the debate about privatization is a basic question: What is local government for? For years, one answer, at least implicitly, was “to provide steady jobs with good wages.” But that answer is losing its political tenability, says John Donahue of the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard. “A lot of jobs in government are middleclass jobs that in the private sector are not middle-class jobs,” he says. “People aren’t willing to support conditions for public workers that they themselves no longer enjoy.”

In a way, what Sandy Springs and other newly incorporated towns have done harks back to a 19th-century notion of taxation, which was much less about cross-subsidies and much more about fee for service.

“It was normal from around 1830 through the end of the Civil War for cities to be run like businesses,” says McKenzie, the “Privatopia” author.

“When people paid property taxes, it was to get something that benefited them directly — like butchers wanting a certain area cleaned up.”

Sandy Springs residents still send roughly $190 million a year to Fulton County through property taxes, about half of which goes to schools, including those in Sandy Springs.

But by incorporating, the town gets to keep $90 million in taxes a year to spend as it pleases.

Has this financially hurt the rest of Fulton County? It has, says the county manager, Zachary Williams, though he and his staff were unable to put a dollar figure on how much the incorporation of Sandy Springs and other nearby towns had lopped off the county’s budget. Williams described the figure as “significant,” especially given the strains imposed by the economic downturn.

Many cities that have dipped a toe or two into the privatization pool, and others that have plunged in, have had awful results. Recently, the company that has a contract to manage Chicago’s parking meters sent the city a series of bills, totaling nearly $50 million, to make up for revenue lost from people with disability parking placards and from street closings.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel has refused to pay.

New York City’s comptroller released a report in late May that said that Hewlett-Packard, a major contractor in the city’s emergency dispatch service, was paid $113 million for work considered subpar.

In Maywood, Calif., going private has driven up the cost of running the town, says Aguirre, the council member, and the quality of municipal service has gone down.

“Let’s say a tree falls on a car,” Aguirre says. “Previously, we had an employee who would deal with it. Now, you have to make an appointment and they’ll come out when they

flip side of the fairy-tale world “Between the Lines”

by Jodi Picoult and Samantha van Leer (Emily Bestler Books, 368 pgs., $19.99)

By Susan Carpenter Los Angeles Times

Jodi Picoult is best known for weaving controversial issues of the day into compelling narratives. It’s a formula that’s propelled “Lone Wolf,” “Nineteen Minutes” and several other of her 19 novels to the top of the New York Times bestseller list. In her newest, however, Picoult is taking a different tack with the comedic love story, “Between the Lines” — her first young-adult novel. The fact that Picoult’s co-author is her teen daughter only makes her children’s debut more interesting, particularly because it’s so good.

“Between the Lines” begins with a note from Picoult, gushing about her now-16year-old daughter’s creativity and the difficulties of harnessing it after Samantha van Leer first approached her mother with the basic idea that became “Between the Lines”: What if a fairy tale’s characters lived entirely different lives after the book’s cover was closed? What if happily ever after wasn’t real but an act that was becoming so intolerable that one of the book’s characters wants to escape the story entirely, and plots to do so with the help of a reader who’s fallen in love with him?

It’s an exceedingly clever concept that would be challenging to pull off, if not for the deep understanding of character, plot and pacing provided by Picoult, whose author’s note serves a dual purpose.

Without an explanation, readers might not get beyond the first chapter, which reads like a well-written, if generic, fairy tale about a prince who’s tricked into saving a beautiful damsel in distress. It’s only when readers get to Chapter 2 that the story takes off.

Prince Oliver, it turns out, in the first of several chapters written from his perspective, resents being trapped in a story that has him saying “I do” to the young beauty he only loves on the page but can’t stand when the book is closed.

Once upon a time, he laments, is really hundreds of times for the characters who are forced to reenact the story whenever someone from the so-called otherworld wants to read it.

But the fairy tale and its dashing prince protagonist are exactly why a 15-yearold loner named Delilah has

read and re-read the book so many times that she notices the words “help me” scrawled across Page 43.

Delilah isn’t so lucky. When her mother hears her talking to the book, she confiscates it and drags Delilah to a psychiatrist. So begins the love story, and the battle for Oliver and Delilah to be together, however improbable it seems.

“Between the Lines” alternates between three narratives: The fairy tale, Prince Oliver’s perspective of being stuck on the page and Delilah’s point of view as the fairy tale’s most avid fan. The layout helps readers move between the novel’s three story lines. While the fairy-tale sections are written in black text and illustrated like a traditional Brothers Grimm, whenever the story switches to Oliver’s or Delilah’s perspective, so does the color of the text to blue or green.

Picoult and van Leer do a wonderful job tackling the logistical problems such a complex story presents. When the book is closed, the characters are free to wander around and do what they want, which is oftentimes distinctly at odds with the roles they play for readers.

Conceptually, “Between the Lines” is reminiscent of the “Toy Story” movies, which show the lives toys lead when their owners aren’t watching.

Picoult’s and Van Leer’s novel is executed just as artfully.

“Between the Lines” stands the fairy-tale trope on its head, pointing out the fallacies of once-upon-a-times and happily-ever-afters and reversing the prince’s role to the dude in distress. And it toys with other bookish ideas, as well, such as the notion that characters speak to their author-creators and readers. An exploration of the nature of escapism that asks whether reality is any more real than make-believe, “Between the Lines” will delight readers of all ages whose imaginations willfully blur that distinction.

On this day in March, the bids climb much higher, past the county record set just a month earlier. After a few tense minutes, Schmiesing wins out with an offer of $8,375 an acre.

He looks a bit stunned — he just spent $670,000.

Is the land worth it? “I have no idea,” he says. “I’ll tell you in five years.”

Across Minnesota and the Midwest, concerns are rising that farm values are climbing too high. Farmers, bankers and investors have put huge sums of money on the line, in the hope that boom times for agriculture will last.

Land prices have reached levels not seen in a century.

E-tailer customization: Convenient or creepy?

• Online retailers turn to software firms to help analyze customer data

By Natasha Singer New York Times News Service

Dmitri Siegel, until last year was a marketing executive at Urban Outfitters, thought he had hit on a novel idea to personalize the company’s website for frequent customers. He would make it easier for female shoppers to peruse women’s apparel and for men to concentrate on men’s clothing by altering the site’s product displays to match a user’s gender.

It seemed like a no-brainer.

“If you could just stop marketing dresses to men, it would be amazing,” Siegel said last week about his thought process at the time.

With the help of a website

testing and optimization company called Monetate, Siegel experimented with gender personalization on the site.

But it roundly backfired. It turned out that many female Urban Outfitters customers regularly bought men’s items and they took offense at being subjected to gender-based marketing.

“We saw customer frustration at being targeted outweigh any benefit,” said Siegel, now the vice president of global e-commerce at Patagonia. “If you got it wrong once, it outweighed getting it right 10 times.”

Amazon may have introduced product recommendations tailored to individual customers years ago, but greater personalization is now fine-tuning the face of e-commerce with bespoke shopping experiences.

MINNEAPOLIS — The record farmland prices that are shaking up rural America offer a potential bonanza for sellers.

Money from recent farmland sales is helping families pay off debt, buy second homes or make other investments, auctioneers say. Some finance education for their families.

“To call it just a seller’s

market is almost downplaying it,” said Chuck Wingert of Wingert Realty & Land Services, an active farm auction company in Mankato, Minn. “We’ve never been here before. It’s a windfall at the moment.”

For Jack and Betty Thomas, the family farm they sold is financing a retirement dream in northern Minnesota: opening an animal shelter called Paws and Claws.

Rubbermaid refreshes its branding

By Arielle Kass Atlanta Journal-Constitution

ATLANTA — Rubbermaid made its name on durable plastic containers. It now wants to be known for more.

From bathroom cleaning supplies to decorative living room organizers to lunchsized travel kits, the company that sold utilitarian trash cans and garage storage bins has moved away from an all-plastic portfolio. It’s added color.

It’s no longer trying to sell everything to everyone. And it’s finally defined its customer. “What people really want is to organize their living space,� said Steve Pawl, vice president of marketing for Rubbermaid. “We’re trying to evolve to be much more of a home solutions brand.�

So Rubbermaid, which is part of Sandy Springs, Ga.based Newell Rubbermaid, conducted research and toured customers’ homes, studying as they put away their leftovers and cleaned their bathrooms.

What they learned is that everyone finds their own solutions, so Rubbermaid’s new products had to be flexible, to fit established habits.

That means a scrub brush with interchangeable pads, so people can clean with bristles or a sponge. It means small containers for packing a lunch, sized for a sandwich or carrot sticks instead of just leftover lasagna. It means decorative boxes that have flexible dividers, so they can be customized based on content. “If it’s too prescriptive, it’s not going to work the way we need it to,� Pawl said.

Rubbermaid is reaching out to influential bloggers and professional organizers to inform them about the changes in the company, which is nearly 100 years old. Bill Chappell, an analyst with SunTrust Robinson Humphrey, said while it is still early in the shift, Rubbermaid seems to be getting more shelf space in stores. Like all of Newell Rubbermaid, Chappell said, the Rubbermaid brand is trying to become more upscale and sell items at high price points. “They’re doing what they should,� he said. “It takes time.�

In the past several months, Newell Rubbermaid has updated its strategy, investing in some of its businesses for international expansion, while also focusing other businesses on countries where they already have a presence. Rubbermaid falls into the latter category, though it had been experimenting with expansion into China and Brazil.

Newell Rubbermaid chief marketing officer Ted Woehrle said the change in focus — both in customers and in geographies — will help Rubbermaid re-brand its products as items that can help shoppers get their lives organized.

For its new lunch containers, Rubbermaid is offering coupons for tuna fish or bread in its packaging. It’s also getting more items into stores where Rubbermaid had not been found in the past.

The company will continue to offer more products, Pawl said, both in the areas it is already operating and in new lines. Rubbermaid intends to move further into laundry room organization. It has already added several recyclingspecific containers that can be used differently, depending on how goods are collected, and a plunger that is coated in a wax-like substance that lets water bead up, so the plunger doesn’t drip. The brand also offers products to organize closets.

To get customers to look at Rubbermaid as more than just plastic containers, Pawl said the company is repeating its new messaging again and again, hoping its mantra about Rubbermaid helping them get their lives in order will resonate with shoppers. “We’re not necessarily walking away from durability,� Pawl said. “It’s just not the thing we’re hanging our hat on anymore.�

‘Breastaurant’ boom • Business is looking up at Hooters-style restaurants despite the economic downturn

By Candice Choi The Associated Press

NEW YORK — The waitresses at Twin Peaks wear skimpy plaid tops that accentuate their chests. In case you didn’t catch the joke, the chain’s logo is an image of two pointy, snowcapped mountains. And the sports bar doesn’t stop there: It promises “scenic views.�

Twin Peaks owner Randy DeWitt downplays all of that and insists that the appeal of the restaurant goes beyond the obvious.

Hearty meals and a focus on making customers feel special, he says, are what really keeps them coming back. “We believe in feeding the ego before feeding the stomach,� he said. Or as the website of the mountain lodge-themed restaurant states, “Twin Peaks is about you, ’cause you’re the man!�

Twin Peaks is part of a booming niche in the beleaguered restaurant industry known as “breastaurants,� or sports bars that feature scantily clad waitresses.

These small chains operate in the tradition of Hooters, which pioneered the concept in the 1980s but has struggled in recent years to stay fresh.

Instead of relying on lust alone, the new crop of restaurants is growing by offering new themes (think: rustic lodges and Celtic pubs) and varied menus (think: pot roast and shepherd’s pie instead of just burgers and wings). In other words, they’re hoping maybe people really are coming in for the food.

The nation’s top three “breastaurant� chains behind Hooters each had sales growth of 30 percent or more last year, according to Technomic, a food industry research firm. They still represent less than 1 percent of the nation’s top restaurants, but the upstart chains are benefitting as other midpriced options like Applebee’s and Bennigan’s have experienced declines during the economic downturn. “The younger crowds want to go to a newer place, not where mom and dad took them,� said Darren Tristano, an analyst at Technomic.

Tovan Adams says he frequents Tilted Kilt Pub & Eatery in Tempe, Ariz., where waitresses wear matching tartan miniskirts and bras that fit in with the restaurant’s Celtic theme. He even brings his daughters, ages 6 and 9, with him for lunch. “If you come in the evening, you’ll see a lot of kids here,� said Adams, an electric engineer who likes the menu’s variety. “Everyone’s still got their clothes on. If you go to the beach, it’s a lot worse than being here.�

Lynette Marmolejo, a college admissions worker, dropped in at the Tilted Kilt for the first time recently.

She likes that the restaurant is dominated by the “corporate crowd� rather than the “college crowd.�

And she says the halfdressed waitresses don’t bother her. “Prices and the food — if those are good, I don’t care what anybody’s wearing,�

Marmolejo said.

Tilted Kilt, which serves dishes such as shepherd’s pie and “Irish nachos� (potato chips instead of corn tortillas), had annual sales of $124 million last year, reflecting growth of 33 percent, according to Technomic. And by the end of this year, the company expects to have 95 locations, up from 57 at the end of last year.

That growth is one reason Tilted Kilt CEO Ron Lynch, bristles at the “breastaurant� moniker.

He says the word implies that the company’s suc-

cess is based purely on sex appeal. To the contrary, he says his customers — about threequarters of whom are men and of the average age of 36 — consistently say the experience is about far more.

Rose Dimov, a 22-year-old waitress at Tilted Kilt, says her job is no different from any other waitressing gig; make guests feel special and ensure they have a good time. As an aspiring ballroom dancer, she also says she’s not fazed by the revealing outfit that comes with the job. “Going to a restaurant should be an experience,� Dimov said. “We’re entertainers.�

Although the name might suggest otherwise, the owner of Mugs N Jugs in Clearwater, Fla., says his place also is like any ordinary restaurant with entertainment. Sam Ahmed says his game room, pool table and karaoke are why 40 percent of his customers are families.

Sales at the restaurant grew to $3 million in 2008, from $700,000 in 1998, Ahmed says, but have since declined because of the recession. After selling a second location to a franchisee last year, Ahmed is looking to find others who want to open franchise locations under the Mugs N Jugs banner.

As for the tank tops and shorts the waitresses wear, Ahmed says they don’t reveal too much. And those photos on the Mugs N Jugs website showing waitresses leaning over a pool table? Ahmed explains they are purely for mar-

keting purposes. “They’re at an angle because they’re at a pool table,� he says. “When you’re in the restaurant, you won’t see that.

She’ll be standing.�

Taking a cue from its much smaller rivals, Hooters is also making changes.

The company opened its first location in 1983 in Clearwater, Fla., with waitresses sporting the now famous tiny orange shorts and tight white tank tops. The chain grew rapidly at first but has struggled in recent years. Sales have fallen steadily since peaking in 2007 at $960 million, as the menu and decor grew stale.

Last year, a group of private investors bought the chain of 365 restaurants and decided to try to revive the business.

In February, Hooters opened a renovated location in Atlanta to showcase its new look with upgraded TVs, an outdoor bar and a covered patio. Remodeling is slated for another six to eight restaurants this year.

In April, Hooters also beefed up its menu with items that in-

clude a Baja burger, buffalo chicken sliders and a spinach and shrimp salad. The idea is to offer dishes that draw new customers, says David Henninger, Hooters’ chief marketing officer. Currently, more than three quarters of Hooters customers are male, with an average age of 45.

As part of the effort to improve its image, Henninger says Hooters is looking to showcase the life stories of its servers, many of whom are studying to go on to professional careers. “The public can be misinformed about what we do,� said Henninger, who was hired this year. “They jump to their own conclusions.�

Without explaining how, he says the “curious� name of the restaurant could easily be misinterpreted. He says that the name is “part of the fun� and is about being “in on the joke.�

No matter how hard they try to open their doors to a broader audience, Hooters and its rivals remain the subject of criticism. “If it’s an adult entertainment business, that’s fine,� said Mona Lisa Wallace, president of the San Francisco chapter of the National Organization for Women. “Where they’re crossing the line is when they expose young children to the objectification of women.�

Not every chain is defensive about the reputation of breastaurants.

At Twin Peaks, based in Addison, Texas, sales last year grew 35 percent to $44 million from the previous year, according to Technomic. Owner DeWitt touts the 22-restaurant chain’s amenities but is under no illusions about the main attraction.

Waitresses, for instance, vary their costumes for special occasions. Around the holidays, servers dress up like Santa’s little helpers. Around Easter, they dress up like bunnies.

The owner of Tilted Kilt is just as frank. “We hire only spectacular talent,� Lynch said. “They have to fit into that costume.�

Farmland Continued from G1 Even adjusted for inflation, mainly because historically high prices for commodities such as corn and soybeans have enabled farmers to generate strong profits. Good times are spurring farmers to expand their holdings and newcomers to buy in.

But economists and analysts wonder whether farmland will continue to provide the kind of payoff that justifies the highdollar purchases. Or whether farm prices are vulnerable to the kind of momentum shifts that hit dot-com stocks and then housing.

“If (prices) keep going up at the rates at which they have been going up, they will not be justifiable,” said Brent Gloy, director of Purdue University’s Center for Commercial Agriculture.

Farming’s last golden era also started with high commodity prices and a big runup in land values — only to collapse into what became the 1980s farm crisis. Legions of farmers went bankrupt, and land values plummeted, devastating rural economies.

Many observers say farmers are at less risk this time because they aren’t carrying as much debt as they were in the ’80s. But signs of overinflated land prices have people on guard that the market may be peaking.

“As a conservative banker, I’m concerned every day,” said Michael Bahl, principal agriculture industry specialist at Wells Fargo Bank in Owatonna, Minn. He thinks Minnesota farmland that has reached $8,000 to $10,000 an acre is “too high.”

Purdue’s Gloy watches the “value-to-cash rent multiple” of farmland, which indicates how much buyers are paying for each dollar of rent they could collect for the land. A high number suggests that buyers may be overpaying.

The ratio hit a high in Minnesota in 2007 and remains at levels not seen in 45 years, according to a Star Tribune analysis of U.S. Department of Agriculture data. It’s at similar highs in Iowa, Illinois and Indiana and hasn’t fallen back in those states, according to Gloy’s analysis.

“We’re in uncharted territory,” Gloy said.

Farming is the ultimate hard-luck profession, forever at the mercy of weather and faceless commodity markets.

In recent years, though, the rewards for many crop farmers have been bountiful.

Sitting in his home office in southwest Minnesota overlooking two large shiny new steel corn bins, Gene Stoel sums up the past couple of years: “It’s been very easy to make money,” said Stoel, 57, a veteran corn and soybean farmer near Lake Wilson, Minn. “This has been a very good age for farming.”

Keep growing Minnesota crop farmers had two of their most profitable years on record in 2010 and 2011, posting an annual median net income of over $145,000 after farm expenses, according to data from the University of Minnesota and

Looking to expand his farm in southern Minnesota. Gene Stoel stands on the property he purchased last fall for $6,800 per acre. “This has been a very good age for farming.” Stoel said.

the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities. Surging income has helped put farmers in a financial position to expand.

Last fall, Stoel bought 160 acres, increasing the size of his farm by about a quarter.

“You’ve got to keep growing, or you’ll be left behind,” Stoel said.

He paid $6,300 an acre.

Three years ago, he bought an 80-acre parcel. It’s a little less fertile than his recent purchase, but it cost only $3,200 per acre.

Tom Haag, a 60-year-old corn and soybean farmer near Eden Valley, Minn., expanded last year, too. He bought 200 acres that almost doubled the size of his farm as part of an effort to bring his son into the family business.

Haag paid just less than $4,000 an acre for land that probably would have cost 30 percent less three or four years ago.

“I was not feeling good for three or four days,” Haag said.

“I’ve never spent that much money in my life. I want a couple of good years because I don’t want to go backwards.”

Last year, the average price for an acre of cropland jumped 9 percent nationally, according to the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

One factor that adds to the pressure on prices is that there just isn’t much land for sale.

Only 1 percent of Minnesota’s farmland generally comes up for sale in a given year.

And despite hot demand, the number of farm real estate sales has actually been falling, hitting its lowest point in decades, said University of Minnesota economist Steven Taff, who tracks farm real estate sales across the state. For a farmer, land coming up for sale next door can be a oncein-a-lifetime opportunity.

Taff said he suspects sellers, optimistic about high prices, are taking land off the market if they don’t get the whopper offers they anticipate.

He said most of the buyers are farmers looking to expand near their own farms — “neighbors cannibalizing the neighbor’s farm.” The instinct is always to add more land.

“There’s a lot of manly man stuff,” Taff said. “You want to

Black Keys sues P izza Hut, Home Depot over song use

By Anthony McCartney The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — The Black Keys are not shilling power tools or pizza, the band said in copyright infringement lawsuits against The Home Depot and Pizza Hut. The “Lonely Boy” band filed the federal lawsuits Thursday, claiming Home Depot did not have permission to use elements of the hit song in an ad promoting power tools and that Pizza Hut misused “Gold on the Ceiling” in a recent ad.

Both songs appeared on the rock group’s seventh album, “El Camino,” which was released last year and has sold nearly 840,000 copies. The Black Keys are comprised of Dan Auerbach and Patrick Carney. Musicianproducer Brian Burton, who is known as Danger Mouse, is also suing the companies.

“The experts confirmed that this was copyright infringement,” band spokeswoman Mary Moyer said in a statement.

The cases seek unspecified damages of more than $75,000 apiece and an order preventing the continued use of the songs in the commercials.

“We haven’t seen the complaint yet, but respect for intellectual property rights is a matter we take very seriously,” said Home Depot spokesman Stephen Holmes.

Pizza Hut spokesman Christopher Fuller said the company also hasn’t seen the case, but fully respects artists’ rights. He directed inquiries to the ad’s creators, The Martin Agency and The Interpublic Group of Companies.

A Martin Agency spokesman said the company doesn’t respond to pending lawsuits, and a spokesman for the Interpublic Group of Companies was not immediately available.

Neither company received permission to use musical elements from the songs. The ads do not include any vocals.

own more land because that’s the way we do things.”

Farmers can thank much of their current good fortune to the combination of historically high commodity prices and historically low interest rates.

High prices for corn and other grains, of course, boost farm income. Low rates make borrowing cheaper and intrinsically raise the value of a farm.

Farmers entered a new price era about five years ago. Until about 2007, the long-term average price for corn — going back at least 30 years — was around $2.50 per bushel. Then prices for corn and other commodities began climbing in what experts see as a structural change driven by global food and fuel demand.

The thirst for corn-based ethanol has risen sharply. Plus, the swell of people entering the middle class in countries such as China and India has buoyed demand for meat, and thus for soybeans and corn for animal feed.

‘Corn is land’ Growing world demand for food has come at the same time that global grain supplies have been tight. With subpar weather, U.S. corn yields have been below long-term trends in recent years.

The result: corn above $5 and soybeans around $13 — both off yearly highs but handily above historical benchmarks.

Said Stoel: “I never thought it would get this good.”

There are so many risks that Bahl, the Wells Fargo banker, joked he can’t list them all.

“Any one thing could cause that disaster,” he said.

Interest rates will inevitably rise at some point, although the Federal Reserve has made clear that it intends to hold rate targets low until at least 2014.

Ethanol demand has slowed, and farm economists say that without federal policy changes, the days of go-go growth for the corn-based fuel are gone.

“Corn is land, and land is corn,” said Michael Swanson, an agricultural economist with Wells Fargo in Minne-

apolis. “If we have $6 corn prices going forward, these land prices are fine. We really need to have a couple of monster crops to see how low these prices might go.”

Producers themselves, and the age-old specter of such “monster crops” pose their own threat. Farmers worldwide, not surprisingly, react to higher prices by planting more, which in turn can lead to bumper crops that inevitably lead to price declines. U.S. corn farmers were expected to plant more acres in corn this year than any time since 1937.

“In the past, farmers have tended to produce themselves out of prosperity,” said Jason Henderson, an economist at the Federal Reserve Bank of Kansas City.

Then there’s rising costs for farm essentials like fertilizer and seed. Indeed, despite Minnesota crop farmers’ banner year in 2011, profits were still down almost 10 percent from 2010 due to higher costs.

Bankers are busy charting the shrinking profit margins.

A sudden spike in oil prices, for instance, could alter the farm equation.

Stoel, like many farmland watchers, is bullish on world demand driving higher prices.

As chairman of the Minnesota Soybean Research and Promotion Council, he’s been to Asia and seen the success story firsthand: “As they increase income, the first thing they want is a better diet.” Demand for more meat spells demand for more animal feed.

Still, he cites a slowdown in emerging nations as his biggest worry.

Gloy, the Purdue economist, said he’s concerned that global growth “is taken on faith.”

A farming bubble?

The inevitable comparison for farm prices is the housing bubble.

But home values surged well beyond people’s incomes, a warning sign for trouble. On the farm, commodity prices and incomes have soared at similar rates to land prices.

And economists are quick to point out that farmers are far less leveraged today than

in the 1980s, when high debt levels greatly amplified fallout from the agricultural downturn. Debt levels, while rising over the past decade, are a bit less than half of what they were during that crisis.

That could change, of course, if historically low interest rates inspire more borrowing. Will farmers and bankers go on a credit spree?

“That’s the key question,” Henderson said.

Farmers and bankers alike say lenders are more conservative than during the previous boom. Back in the late 1970s and early ’80s, Haag said you could ask a bank for $50,000, only to hear, “How about $100,000?” And they’d let borrowers put considerably less of their own cash into a deal.

Haag made it through the ’80s farm bust intact but saw collapsing farm values firsthand. That experience still guides him, he said.

“My group that went through it — the ’80s — we are being very careful. You saw guys who were very good farmers overextend themselves and lose it.”

Some of the state’s largest farm lenders, such as Wells Fargo, AgStar, Rabo Agrifinance and Bremer Bank, said they generally lend up to 60 to 65 percent of the land’s value — although that limit is coming down, some said.

The farmer has to provide the rest with cash, or with a combination of cash and mortgaging land the farmer already owns outright. In some cases, pledging already-owned land as collateral enables farmers to buy land with zero cash down, bankers said, although that’s not common.

Bahl, at Wells Fargo, said the bank likes to have 10 to 20 percent in cash.

“We’re not going to let the farmer overleverage themselves,” Bahl said. “Bubbles are created when people overleverage themselves and put themselves in a bad position.

Conservative lending practices are not allowing that to happen.”

Paul DeBriyn, CEO of AgStar Financial Services Inc. in Mankato, said farmers are better managers now, with better technology available to them. Prices will come down, DeBriyn said, but “it’s hard to imagine we’d have anything close to the ’80s.”

The risks aren’t lost on farmers. Schmiesing, who just bought the 80 acres in Blue Earth County to grow more corn, said he’s perfectly aware of them. He just doesn’t think corn prices will fall “for a while.”

He and his brother, who run a hog operation, had to mortgage some of the 1,500 acres they farm with their father to pay for the new land. He said he probably wouldn’t have bought if it hadn’t been right next door.

“It’s just like going to Morton, you know,” said Schmiesing, referring to the Jackpot Junction Casino in Morton, Minn.

“That’s what farming is, it’s a gamble every day.”

“It’s good right now. I don’t know how long it will last.”

Sellers Continued from G1 For years the Thomases have rented out the 80-acre farm that Betty grew up on near Worthington, Minn., but started eyeing the market in recent years for a good time to sell. In November, they made their move.

Expecting about $6,000 an acre, the Thomases sold the land at a public auction for $8,150. The market “fit right into our plans just perfectly,” Jack Thomas said.

The couple, who don’t have children, said they’re lifelong animal lovers and want to donate the money to build a state-of-the-art animal shelter for Cass County, which they said doesn’t have one.

“Life’s been pretty good to us,” said Jack, 75. “This was a way for us to give back.”

“The people at the auction were happy for us. But at the same time, it went for too much. I was shocked.”

— Kelvin Bonnema, whose 154-acre family farm in Minnesota sold for $8,112 per acre

Glen Fladeboe, whose Willmar, Minn.-based Fladeboe Auctions sold the farm for the Thomases, said he sees a lot of families enjoying the upside to the boom.

But not everyone who owns farmland is fully aware of the opportunity, he said, explaining that he routinely meets with people a generation or two removed from the family farm who harvest paychecks in the Twin Cities now but still own the farm.

“They’re unaware of the really huge growth in farmland values,” Fladeboe said. “Nobody’s sending them a monthly statement in the mail with what their farmland has gone up, like with their stock returns.”

There was no surprise for Kelvin Bonnema. The 66year-old retired Medtronic senior scientist in Brooklyn Park, Minn., said he’d been reading farm newsletters.

Plus, farmers had been contacting him, asking about the land he and his brothers and sisters still owned near Willmar.

None of the children farm, and Bonnema said that after their parents passed away, they finally decided it was time to sell.

In November, Fladeboe Auctions sold the family’s 154-acre farm in Kandiyohi County for $8,112 per acre — still the county record.

“The people at the auction were happy for us. But at the same time, it went for too much,” Bonnema said.

“I was shocked.”

Bachelor Continued from G1 “The bill supports our current Deschutes Forest plan guidance to encourage yearround recreation activities and summer facilities that are compatible with, or enhance natural resources on Mt. Bachelor,” Tinderholt wrote.

“Locally, we feel that Bachelor would be offering recreation opportunities that are not available on the Forest.”

According to its proposal, Mt. Bachelor wants to add hiking trails, a mountain bike park and trail system, the zipline course that descends in three segments to West Village Lodge and a rock climbing structure at the top of Pine Marten Express.

The proposed activities will use existing lift, trail and lodge infrastructure, according to a draft environmental impact statement on the Mt. Bachelor expansion project.

Dave Byrd, director of risk and regulatory affairs for the National Ski Areas Association, said the more ski resorts can use their properties yearround, the more revenue they’ll generate.

Byrd said the association is compiling data on the number of ski resorts with summer recreation and what activities

manages campgrounds in both Oregon and Washington’s national forests.

“We really encourage people to go camping, fishing and hiking and use the entire forest,” he said. “Instead of building infrastructure on the mountain, we’ve built infrastructure in the area of the Deschutes National Forest.”

Doug Grayson, marketing and promotions director at Bryce Resort in Virginia, said the zipline is the “bread and butter” of summer recreation that helps bring in revenue. Ziplining is one of several activities proposed in the Mt. Bachelor expansion plan.

they offer.

Ski resorts on private land have no restrictions, Byrd said. But, even with the new legislation, he said, ski resorts on forest land aren’t allowed to have additions that could undermine the natural element of the forest, such as a water park.

Resorts on Forest Service land are limited to activities

Liquor companies try to woo women

By Michelle Locke For The Associated Press

Maybe it’s the ad’s strikingly handsome spokesman dressed in fireman’s gear.

Maybe it’s the fact that his shirt has a winsome habit of disappearing, revealing sculpted pecs. Maybe it’s the beret-wearing kitten he chats with. In French.

Whatever the reason, you don’t have to watch Sauza Blue Tequila’s latest YouTube video long before realizing this is not exactly your father’s liquor ad. Or your boyfriend’s.

With millions of views, the “Make it with a Fireman” video launched this year has caused quite a stir. Brand officials say social media mentions of Sauza are up and the adorable blue-eyed kitten co-star has built a fan base of its own.

On a broader scale, the ad reflects a slight shift in spirits marketing as some producers look beyond traditional maleoriented campaigns.

“Companies are realizing that women comprise a very heavy percentage of the cocktail-drinking community and I believe they are starting to speak more directly to women without the fear that they’re going to alienate the male base,” said Allison Evanow, one of the relatively few female executives in the spirits industry as founder and CEO of Square One Organic Spirits in San Francisco. “There’s more advertising that is either targeted to women or at least is not quite as male-dominated.”

For Sauza, the decision to engage female consumers was prompted by data showing that a good chunk of tequila sold is being consumed in margaritas.

And those margaritas are being consumed by women. “So you just look at that and you go, ‘Wow! We should really be talking to this demographic,’” said Kevin George, chief marketing officer for Beam Inc., which owns Sauza.

Sauza’s all-digital campaign started with suggested recipes for ladies nights in or out, and this year they looked at ways to deliver that message in a new context, hence the fireman ad created by Euro RSCG Chicago.

Striking the same tonguein-cheek note as the Old Spice TV spots featuring Isaiah Mustafa, “The Man Your Man Could Smell Like,” the Sauza YouTube video is a mash-up of female appeal — Firemen!

Kittens! — and aims to be just over-the-top enough to let women know they’re in on the joke. Also reaching out is Campari America, formerly known as SKYY Spirits, and home to a number of brands, including Yamazaki Japanese Single Malt Whisky and Wild Turkey. The company has created a “Women & Whiskies,” campaign, a group and event series intended to give women a forum to enjoy and learn more about whiskies and cocktails.

On the consumer side, women have shown their interest in the spirits world, forming groups such as Ladies United for the Preservation of Endangered Cocktails, which has chapters in several major cities.

Kiki Braverman, co-founder of the San Francisco chapter of LUPEC, has seen the Sauza ad and liked its humor and originality. “I LOVE that a guy is the sex object,” she said.

like mountain biking, ziplines and rope courses that allow visitors to experience the forest without requiring a significant amount of additional infrastructure, he said.

“The Forest Service is concerned about ski areas getting turned into amusement parks,” he said. “They want to maintain the outdoor, natural environment.”

Custom Continued from G1 Retailers look at customers’ locations, past purchases and current online activities to customize content to individuals in real time in an effort to increase sales.

The customization is often covert. Many people are unaware that sites may show them material or offer deals — like discounts or free shipping — that are different from what their neighbors see. Yet the phenomenon is growing. Half of the largest online retailers in the United States used some personalization techniques last year, compared with about 33 percent the year before, according to Internet Retailer’s Top 500 Guide. E-tailers are turning to a handful of specialty software companies like PredictiveIntent, RichRelevance, MyBuys and Monetate to help them analyze customer data and segment their audiences for special treatment.

Tailoring sites to users can spur online sales, repeated site visits and in-store sales, says Kurt Heinemann, chief marketing officer of Monetate.

“That helps our clients increase revenue and creates more relevant experiences for customers,” he said. Users don’t have to click 10 times to find products they like, he added, because “the site is bringing things to them.”

Taking stock without stalking But when personalization gets too personal, as Urban Outfitters’ executives learned, it can come too close for many consumers’ comfort. It turns out that hyper-customization

Nurturing with nature At Hoodoo Mountain Resort, the emphasis is not on promoting recreation on the mountain at the top of Santiam Pass during the summer months, but throughout the forest, said Marketing Director Leif Williams.

During the summer, Williams said, Hoodoo’s ski area is closed. Instead, Hoodoo

may produce reactions similar to the “uncanny valley” effect in robotics in which people find themselves repulsed by humanoids that too closely resemble human beings.

If e-tailers become too familiar with users, they risk alienating them, says Mahender Nathan, vice president for e-commerce and digital marketing at Godiva, another Monetate client. Personalization, he believes, should adhere to the conventions of inperson conversations.

“In conversation, if you think it’s odd that you know something about someone that they didn’t share with you, don’t use it,” Nathan said.

“What we’re trying to shoot for is friendly, cordial and helpful as opposed to crossing the line and being creepy.”

Godiva, for example, is using the Monetate system to test a promotion tailored to users in warm-weather regions.

The promotion guarantees that the chocolatier’s products will arrive in perfect condition no matter the climate.

Monetate, based in Conshohocken, Pa., has designed technology that marketing executives can use to modify or run experiments on their websites using natural language, not computer code. With the company’s dashboard, a marketer can instantly customize a site to appeal to, say, customers from Los Angeles, people who are interested in watches, big spenders — or high-end Los Angeles watch collectors — offering those particular audiences $50 off a purchase of $500 or more. The system can compare the actions of shoppers who receive tailored offers to those of people who did not. The dashboard charts the results, displaying the impact of site changes on new customer acquisition, average purchase amount per customer, overall sales and

Take, for example, Revolve Clothing, which sells 400 brands of designer jeans and other fashion items.

Two years ago, the site introduced a feature, called “My Revolve,” by which customers could select the designers they preferred, creating their own mini-boutiques with their brand choices, says Kobie Fuller, the company’s chief marketing officer. That allows Revolve to send tailored emails promoting customers’ preferred brands. But, he says, it is too limiting for the site to simply depend on people to divulge their fashion preferences because only a small percentage of visitors voluntarily share their tastes.

“The next steps really revolve around not actively asking visitors for their likes,” Fuller said, “but taking the data

that Monetate is tracking — on what people are viewing and buying — and showing them images or brands they like.”

Revolve already tailors its offerings based on whether a customer comes to the site after using a search engine or after clicking on a promotional email. It also offers free shipping to users from certain countries. Those kinds of tweaks have resulted in seven-figure increases in annual gross revenue for Revolve, Fuller says.

Certainly, many people welcome such tailor-made conveniences. As personalization becomes more pervasive, however, it has the potential to invisibly channel consumers who might mistakenly think they are browsing freely, limiting their experience to the views algorithms have predetermined they might like and act upon. Retailers say they are grappling with the question of how to make customization helpful without being invasive or constrictive.

One way to do that, says Siegel, of Patagonia, is to personalize features that add value for consumers. Right now, for example, Patagonia is experimenting with climate and geographic customization, showing waterproof gear to customers in Seattle during rainstorms and surfer boardshorts to users in Southern California. Knowing a customer’s location, he says, enables Patagonia to be more precise about delivery times.

“There’s a lot of hype around personalization. I am deeply skeptical,” Siegel said.

“The big question right now is: ‘Is it right for my business, is it right for my customer?’”

“We just had an 86-year-old on the zipline last Sunday.”

Whether it’s winter helping summer, or summer helping winter, he said the crosspromotion opportunities are immense.

Alana Hughson, president and CEO of the Central Oregon Visitors Association, agreed that expanded summer offerings at Mt. Bachelor would help position Central Oregon as a premier yearround destination.

“COVA is delighted to see Mt. Bachelor as a leader in the national trend of ski area’s to grow on-mountain products and experiences for summer travelers, as well as winter enthusiasts,” she wrote in an email.

“Expanded summer activities on-mountain enhances COVA’s ability to cross-promote the seasonal offerings in the area to both grow visitation and average length of stay.”

Hughson said the proposed summer activities are an ideal fit for the type of visitor enjoying a Central Oregon vacation, and would complement Mt. Bachelor’s winter activities.

Heinemann, of Monetate, says personalization is just the latest incarnation of old-fashioned customer service.

“It’s like a 1950s retailer, where people knew their customers and could steer them to things they knew they would like,” he said. “You perform better by tailoring the experience.”

Founded in 2008, Monetate has a client list including Aeropostale, Best Buy, Patagonia, Petco, QVC, Revolve Clothing and Urban Outfitters. Those companies tend to frequently tweak their sites, he says, running dozens of tests at a time to gauge the impact of seemingly small changes like font size or free shipping on customer behavior and revenue.

At Bryce Resort in northwestern Virginia, summer activities have increased revenue and allowed the ski resort to stay afloat in years with challenging winter seasons, said Doug Grayson, marketing and promotions director.

“Us in the ski industry, all together, are going to have to expand our offerings in the summer or we’re not going to be able to exist,” he said. “We have to provide four seasons of opportunity to our customers in order to maintain our presence.”

The resort, located on private land, features ziplining, summer tubing — waterless tubing on special gliding mats — and grass skiing.

Grayson said the zipline by far, is the “bread and butter” of summer recreation. It’s where the most money and the opportunity is for profitability, he said.

Honda’s Ridgeline sport utility truck, introduced in early 2005, is similar in concept to the Ford Explorer Sport Trac and Chevrolet Avalanche, in that it has a cargo bed integrated with the SUVstyle cab.

That makes it look more like a sport utilR E VIEW ity with an open cargo area than a conventional pickup truck. It’s essentially the same vehicle as the Honda Pilot crossover, but with the cargo area cut open to create the small pickup bed.

The Ridgeline has room to seat up to five people comfortably — two up front and three in the rear.

For 2012, Honda added another Ridgeline trim, the Sport, which brought some special exterior touches to the RT line, such as 18-inch black alloy wheels with planed aluminum face and all-season tires; black honeycomb grille with black surround; black headlight and taillight housings; leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio and cruise controls; auxiliary audio input jack; rear privacy glass; black all-weather heavy-duty floor mats; and fog lights.

There are now five trim levels, with 2012 prices ranging from $29,350 to $37,280.

There are several options available. My tester was a striking Crystal Black Pearl four-wheel-drive Sport with black-textured cloth seats.

Under the hood is a 250horsepower, 3.5-liter V-6, connected to a five-speed automatic transmission with grade logic control, which holds the transmission in lower gears when on hills.

Also included are heavyduty transmission and power-steering coolers, a heavyduty radiator with two 160watt fans, an immobilizer theft-deterrent system, and a VTM-4 four-wheel drive system, which allows the driver to manually lock the rear differential for starting in lowtraction conditions, such as mud, snow and loose gravel.

The Ridgeline is EPA rated at 15 mpg in the city and 21 on the highway. According to the onboard trip com-

The 2012 Honda Ridgeline sport utility truck has a cargo bed integrated with the SUV-style cab.

2012 Honda Ridgeline Base price: $29,350 As tested: $29,995 Type: Sport utility truck with room for five people Engine: 250-horsepower, 3.5-liter V-6 Mileage: 15 mpg city, 21 mpg highway

puter, I averaged 19.7 mpg overall during my week in the vehicle. Much of that was freeway driving on my daily commute.

As usual with Honda products, the Ridgeline comes with lots of storage. The steel-reinforced composite

cargo bed, with one-half-ton capacity, needs no liner; it comes with a non-skid surface for impact, corrosion and scratch resistance.

Steel cross-members underneath add strength and integrity. The dual-action tailgate swings open to the side or flips down for easy loading of large items, such as plywood or drywall, and will support 300 pounds — think four-wheeler, motorcycle or lawn tractor.

There is also a locking inbed trunk for smaller items that might otherwise roll and slide around the bed — or get stolen.

The cargo bed has numerous tie-downs and hooks for securing an assortment of oddly shaped or bulky items.

Manyfactors must be weighed in analyzing poor fuel economy

By Brad Bergholdt McClatchy-Tribune News Service

I have 2007 Ford Escape Q : with 90,000 miles. I have been noticing I am getting very poor mileage per gallon and air conditioning is also very poor. I have asked my trusted mechanic, and he does not have any good suggestions. Can you please suggest what could be causing this?

Gas mileage has to be A: one of the most difficult topics to get a handle on, as there are so many variables.

Depending on the Escape’s engine — 3.0 liter V-6 or 2.3 liter four-cylinder — transmission type, and trim level, the EPA’s fuel economy ratings range from 17 city, 21 highway to 21 city, 27 highway miles per gallon. And everyone knows these are tough to match, especially the city number.

An even weightier variable is how the vehicle is driven.

Cold weather, frequent cold starts and short trips, and stop and go traffic could easily cut the city number in half.

Driving techniques are also a big factor, as well as tire choice, proper tire inflation and minimizing unneeded cargo. Each time the brakes are applied, hard-earned kinetic energy is burned off as heat.

Coasting, rather than braking, into traffic slowdowns can make a noticeable difference in fuel economy. With the manual transmission, lugging the engine slightly rather than

Each time the brakes are applied, hardearned kinetic energy is burned off as heat.

Coasting, rather than braking, into traffic slowdowns can make a noticeable difference in fuel economy. allowing it to rev improves efficiency; the further open the throttle is, the less pumping losses occur. Tall, thin, hard tires roll more easily than wide, sticky performance-oriented tires, and running them at or slightly above the door sticker number provides the best fuel performance.

You didn’t mention if the fuel economy had recently dropped or has been continually disappointing. With the Escape’s engine diagnostics, it’s unlikely a significant problem could be occurring that would affect fuel economy yet not illuminate the check engine light. There are certainly things that can go wrong with an engine, such as valve or cylinder sealing problems, air-fuel ratio or ignition timing faults, an exhaust restriction, or even transmission issues that result in incorrect shifting or an inoperative torque converter clutch. In just about every case, the sensors or

actuators involved, or the inferred readings they provide, would indicate a fault that raises emissions or cuts into engine efficiency, and result in a glowing indicator.

Could your mileage have dropped due to the installation of a new set of tires or a change in driving routines?

Your technician has surely checked the air filter, scanned for codes and the like.

Poor air conditioning performance could be due to insufficient refrigeration or improper blending or delivery.

I’ll assume the discharge air exits the correct registers at the proper volume and simply isn’t cold enough. A check of evaporator temperature and system pressures would verify proper compressor function, orifice tube operation and pressure cycling switch values. Proper cooling of the condenser in front of the radiator is really important — it must be free of debris and enjoy proper fan operation. Your Escape uses an old-school cable-operated temperature blend door. A check might be made to ensure it is properly adjusted, so heat isn’t accidentally blended in with your cold air. The recirculation door can also be checked for proper function; it’s used during Max A/C mode to recycle alreadycooled inside air, rather than bringing in hot outside air.

cargo bed with auto-off timer and a power-sliding rear window with privacy glass.

A cargo bed cover and a net are available options. The Ridgeline would be perfect for a drive-in movie, a picnic on the beach, or camping under the stars.

Storage in the cab includes space under the rear benchstyle seat, which also folds up manually in a 6 0/40 split against the back of the cab to open up the rear floor area for cargo. Folding was a little difficult for me, because of the strength required, but bigger and stronger folks should have no problem.

There was a fold-down center armrest in the rear with two cupholders and a small storage bin. There were map pockets and bottle holders

on the door panels. The rear of the front console had bag hooks, a floor light, a power outlet and air vents.

The rear seat was comfortable, with lots of legroom (36.4 inches), headroom (39.1 inches) and good visibility.

The seat cushion was just right, and the floor was flat — almost like sitting in a comfortable chair at home.

A multifunctional center console in the front with sliding armrest was amazing. It had multiple levels — some felt-lined, some rubber-lined — and dividers, removable trays, CD storage, two cupholders, a “phone/fry” tray, and a sliding/expanding area with a sliding cover. With the console closed, there was a rubber tray on the floor between the front foot wells.

Front occupants had 40.7 inches of headroom and 40.8 inches of legroom, and the sport bucket seats were very comfortable. The driver’s seat height could be adjusted for better visibility.

The Ridgeline received a “Good” safety rating from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, with dual-stage, multiple-threshold front air bags, front side air bags with passenger-side occupant-position detection, side-curtain air bags with rollover sensor for both rows, head restraints and three-point seat belts in all five seating positions, and side-impact door beams protecting occupants.

The tester didn’t include navigation or satellite radio, although both are available as options.

A: Canadian actress

Carly Foulkes has traded in her sundresses for a leather bodysuit and motorcycle (complete with pink accents, of course!) in the new ad campaign. In real life, the 23-year-old, who has been the T-Mobile spokeswoman since 2010, can relate to her edgy alter ego. “My personal style is very eclectic,” she says. “I’m also working on getting my motorcycle license!”

STAR SPANGLED

Girl America’s pop princess Katy Perry celebrates the Fourth of July with a new concert film and a new outlook on life

By Brooke Hauser

Cover and Opening Photographs by Matt Jones

So, are you going to ask her about Russell Brand?” says a silverhaired navy lieutenant in dress whites and stiff cap. It is the first day of Fleet Week, when vessels from around the world dock in New York City, and on this cool evening in late May, Katy Perry is performing an outdoor concert for the visiting servicemen and women. The lieutenant may not seem like the typical Perry fan, but he is surprisingly up to date on her personal life, even filling in another officer on her split with the British comedian: “They broke up around Christmas. Didn’t you know that?” he says, and sighs. “Oh, well. They didn’t make much sense anyway.”

There’s being a household name, and then there’s being so famous that even sailors on a tour of duty know your business. In recent years, Perry’s ascent to megastardom has been so dramatic she decided to make a movie about it. The result is the 3-D concert film Katy Perry: Part of Me, in theaters July 5. Shot during her nine-month, 124-city California Dreams Tour, the documentary chronicles Perry’s life onstage and off, through all her ups and downs—including her split from Brand after 14 months of marriage.

Despite being addressed in the film, the breakup is understandably a sensitive subject for Perry. Minutes into our interview the day after her concert, one of her handlers asks to sit in, presumably to screen questions, but Perry July 1, 2012 • 7

no puppeteer telling Katy what to do or how to be,” she says. “She has a hand in every moment of her career: every costume, every video, every word, every melody.”

P

erry is proud of the fact that she’s “a bit weirder than the average pop star,” as she puts it. Her parents, Keith and Mary Hudson, are born-again Christian ministers, and she and her two siblings were raised in Santa Barbara, Calif., in a strict household. Perry, who changed her name professionally from Katheryn Hudson because of potential confusion with the actress Kate Hudson, was prohibited from listening to what her mother called “secular music” growing up. Instead, the same woman who would later don a cupcake bra in her video for “California Gurls” sang gospel classics like “Oh, Happy Day.” Now 27, she has come a long way from home, but Perry is still close with I’VE REALIZED her family, fondly THAT IT’S TIME recalling many FOR ME TO SHOW MY AUDIENCE THAT July Fourths spent YOU DON’T HAVE “smuggling fireTO BE PERFECT works either from TO ACHIEVE YOUR DREAMS. BECAUSE the South or from NOBODY RELATES Mexico” with her TO BEING PERFECT.” father. “He loves a firework exit,” she says of the truck stops where they got their goods. “As a kid I was totally like, ‘Yeah!’ Now I realize there are repercussions. I’m like, ‘You’re ggoingg to load the car with fireworks? That thing is going to pop off!’ ” It It’s no wonder Perry, who will perfor form on Macy’s 4th of July Fireworks S Spectacular (NBC, 9 p.m. ET), loves the holiday: She’s full of spark, just like the explosions referenced in her hit “Firework.”

But her success hasn’t come as easily as one might think. Prior to earning her status as a pop princess, Perry was an unknown singer-songwriter on the Christia music circuit. Before she became tian Pe Perry and then-husband Russell Br Brand in April 2011, at the European pr premiere of his film Arthur.

the first woman in Billboard history to claim five No. 1 singles from one album, 2010’s Teenage Dream, she was dropped by several labels.

It’s all part of the story chronicled in the concert documentary.

“There are certain themes you see in the movie: coming out of a constricting, sheltered atmosphere,” Perry says, tucking a lock of purple hair behind her ear. “Not changing when every record label told me that I should be like this other artist who was successful. Overcoming obstacles in so many different ways.”

T

he marines know all about overcoming obstacles, and thanks to a few days spent at California’s Camp Pendleton filming the video for her single “Part of Me,” Perry now knows something about the marines. In the video, shot in February of this year (not long after Brand filed for divorce), she plays a woman who enlists upon discovering her boyfriend has cheated. “Nine times out of ten, I have a matching visual when I write the song. For this one, I wanted to tell the story of a girl whose heart was broken.

She joins the marines, and not only does she get physically strong, but she finds that inner strength again,” says Perry, who got into character by sporting fatigues, going through drills, and dining on MREs, or Meals, Ready to Eat. (“I had the vegetarian barbecue chicken or something,” she recalls. “It’s actually really good. It tasted like a McRib.”) She admits she “didn’t know a lot about people in the service, but it was so intriguing to be at Camp Pendleton listening to everybody’s unique story. They train extremely hard; they’re all, like, Hulks. I have so much respect for them.”

Many in the audience at Perry’s Fleet Week concert were impressed in return. “I thought the video was cool because I’ve done the boot camp and officer training,” said a female lieutenant who first heard the song while stationed in Japan. “Most of us recognize it as ‘the Marine Corps video.’ ” After the show, several servicemen and women made their way backstage to meet Perry. “As soon as the week’s over, I’m buying a new cap,” said one sailor, after the star autographed the inside of his. “I’m framing this one!”

demurs. “I’m a grown woman. I can handle all questions that come at me. As long as there is a level of respect understood, then we’re cool,” says the star, wearing a tight black minidress and sitting on the floor of an office in Paramount Pictures’ New York headquarters. And should the conversation go off the rails? “I’ll just use some key word,” she jokes, widening her blue eyes. “ ‘Help! Help!’ ” In fact, Perry needs no help sidestepping questions about the divorce. She refers to it only as “the situation”—as in, “I’m very aware that it’s inappropriate to give too much away, and that really the situation is just between two people.”

When it’s noted that she and Brand have been respectful of each other in the media, she responds cryptically, “The universe will have its way.” Still, the breakup needed to be acknowledged in her film, she says. “I think if people walked out of the theater and that was completely avoided, they would be like, ‘Well, there’s an elephant in the room that’s still there.’ ” The singer rubs her feet, freed from sky-high Christian Louboutins. “I like to go out there looking like a strong woman, because I am strong. But I am also a woman who goes through all kinds of problems and highs and lows. I wanted to show the complete spectrum.

“There are a lot of things that are personally uncomfortable to show, especially me without makeup and completely bloated or crying,” she adds. “But I’ve realized that it’s time for me to show my audience that you don’t have to be perfect to achieve your dreams. Because nobody relates to being perfect.” She takes another bite p g myy of her bunless burger. “I’m okayy with picking ving bad dance nose. I’m okay with having aving horrible moves. I’m okay with having at makes me lower teeth. That’s what me, and for some reason it’s worked out all right.”

“She’s very blunt and ate honest, and people relate me to her,” says her longtime k. stylist, Johnny Wujek.

Singer-songwriter Bon-nie McKee, who hass collaborated with Perryy on a number of her hits, including “Teenage Dream” and “California Gurls,” agrees. “There’ss 8 • July 1, 2012

says. “It wasn’t just another show. It’s such a tradition, and it felt very vintagey,” she explains. “In the back of my mind, I was like, ‘Marilyn Monroe did this. Of course I want to be a part of that.’ ” Skilled as she is at working a crowd, she did her homework as well. “I Wikipediaed ‘Fleet Week’ because I wanted to know the history. I don’t want With Kitty Purry, a character based on her cat, in the film Katy Perry: Part of Me. to look like a complete idiot.”

Far from it—the star, who in order to pursue her career dropped out of high school and got her GED, is something of an autodidact. “I like to learn,” she says. “If I could go back [to school], I would study language and the origins of words.” While on tour, she and her team made it a priority to experience the culture of each country they visited, taking in Mexican temples and Argentine tango shows. “Everywhere we went, we tried to do something authentic,” she says. They also bonded by getting tattoos of little peppermint faces and playing pranks on each other, including one called Ding-Dong Ditching, where they’d knock on someone’s hotel door and then run away. “Quite silly,” she admits, and laughs.

Through all the globe-trotting, Perry has come to realize how fortunate she is to call the United States home. “Not to sound overly cheesy,” she says, “but I really appreciate the freedom we have in America—especially as a female.” Asked how she reacted to President Obama’s support of same-sex marriage, she says, “I was really happy; I probably went down to West Hollywood and had a shot. I came from a different mind-set growing up, and my mind has changed. My viewpoint on all these things— equality for women, the choice to love anyone you want—hopefully, we will look back at this moment and think like we do now concerning [other] civil rights issues. We’ll just shake our heads in disbelief, saying, ‘Thank God we’ve evolved.’ That would be my prayer for the future.”

As for her own future, Perry says she’ll one day step back from performing to have a family or be out of the limelight; for anything more introspective, you’ll have to listen to her songs. In “Wide Awake,” she sings, “I picked up every piece /And landed on my feet … /I’m wide awake / Yeah—I am born again.” McKee recalls working on the song with Perry in February. “Katy and I sat down, opened a bottle of wine, and I just said, ‘What are you feeling? Let’s get raw about it,’ ” she says. “When we wrote ‘Teenage Dream,’ it was really about your first love and how magical that is. I think Russell made her feel that way again, and she felt she had found the person she was going to spend the rest of her life with. And when that didn’t turn out to be what she’d hoped, it kind of made sense to talk about waking up.”

Manner Up! Modern etiquette made easy

Q: My sister and I take our kids on a road trip every summer. We use my car and I do all the driving, which I don’t mind. What I do mind: She never offers to chip in for gas.

How do I ask her to without sounding cheap?

—Name withheld, Toledo, Ohio

A: Be up front and give your sister a choice, but one in which either option results in your desired outcome. As you’re planning the trip, ask her, “So, how do you want to handle the expenses? Should we just take turns paying for the gas, food, and motels, or do you want to add everything up and split it down the middle?” And by all means, don’t worry about sounding cheap; gas is expensive now, so you’re not out of line in asking her to share the cost. After all, if the two of you were traveling by bus or plane or train, would you be paying for all the tickets? I didn’t think so. —Judith Newman EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

SWEAT. SCORE. AS YOU GET OLDER, REALLY GREAT. BUT DON’T FORGET TO VACCINATE. Now’s the time to help prevent Shingles with ZOSTAVAX® (Zoster Vaccine Live).

ZOSTAVAX is a vaccine that helps prevent Shingles in adults 50 years of age or older. Shingles is caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox. The virus stays in your body and can resurface at any time as Shingles—a painful, blistering rash. And no matter how healthy you feel, your risk increases as you get older.

The sooner you get vaccinated with ZOSTAVAX, the better your chances of protecting yourself from Shingles. In fact, the ACIP* of the CDC (Centers for Disease Control and Prevention) recommends that appropriate adults 60 years of age and older get vaccinated to help prevent Shingles.

Talk to your health care professional to see if ZOSTAVAX is right for you.

ZOSTAVAX is given as a single shot. ZOSTAVAX cannot be used to treat Shingles, or the nerve pain that may follow Shingles, once you have it. For more information, visit ZOSTAVAX.com or call 1-877-9 SHINGLES.

ABOUT ZOSTAVAX ZOSTAVAX is a vaccine that is used for adults 50 years of age or older to prevent Shingles (also known as zoster).

Important Safety Information 𰁴 ZOSTAVAX does not protect everyone, so some people who get the vaccine may still get Shingles. 𰁴 You should not get ZOSTAVAX if you are allergic to any of its ingredients, including gelatin or neomycin, have a weakened immune system, take high doses of steroids, or are pregnant or plan to become pregnant.

You should not get ZOSTAVAX to prevent chickenpox. 𰁴 Talk to your health care professional if you plan to get ZOSTAVAX at the same time as PNEUMOVAX®23 (Pneumococcal Vaccine Polyvalent) because it may be better to get these vaccines at least 4 weeks apart. 𰁴 Possible side effects include redness, pain, itching, swelling, hard lump, warmth, or bruising at the injection site, as well as headache. 𰁴 ZOSTAVAX contains a weakened chickenpox virus. Tell your health care professional if you will be in close contact with newborn infants, someone who may be pregnant and has not had chickenpox or been vaccinated against chickenpox, or someone who has problems with their immune system. Your health care professional can tell you what situations you may need to avoid.

You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088.

Please read the Patient Information on the adjacent page for more detailed information. *ACIP=Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices

Before you get Shingles, get vaccinated.

What is ZOSTAVAX and how does it work?

ZOSTAVAX is a vaccine that is used for adults 50 years of age or older to prevent shingles (also known as zoster).

You should not get ZOSTAVAX to prevent chickenpox.

ZOSTAVAX contains a weakened chickenpox virus (varicella-zoster virus).

ZOSTAVAX works by helping your immune system protect you from getting shingles.

If you do get shingles even though you have been vaccinated, ZOSTAVAX may help prevent the nerve pain that can follow shingles in some people. ZOSTAVAX does not protect everyone, so some people who get the vaccine may still get shingles.

ZOSTAVAX cannot be used to treat shingles, or the nerve pain that may follow shingles, once you have it.

Children should not get ZOSTAVAX. How is ZOSTAVAX given?

ZOSTAVAX is given as a single dose by injection under the skin.

What should I tell my health care p rovider before I get ZOSTAVAX? You should tell your health care provider if you: 𰁴𰀁 𰀁𰁉𰁂𰁗𰁆𰀁𰁐𰁓𰀁𰁉𰁂𰁗𰁆𰀁𰁉𰁂𰁅𰀁𰁂𰁏𰁚𰀁𰁎𰁆𰁅𰁊𰁄𰁂𰁍𰀁 problems. 𰁴𰀁 𰀁𰁕𰁂𰁌𰁆𰀁𰁂𰁏𰁚𰀁𰁎𰁆𰁅𰁊𰁄𰁊𰁏𰁆𰁔𰀍𰀁𰁊𰁏𰁄𰁍𰁖𰁅𰁊𰁏𰁈𰀁𰁏𰁐𰁏𰀎 prescription medicines, and dietary supplements. 𰁴𰀁 𰀁𰁉𰁂𰁗𰁆𰀁𰁂𰁏𰁚𰀁𰁂𰁍𰁍𰁆𰁓𰁈𰁊𰁆𰁔𰀍𰀁𰁊𰁏𰁄𰁍𰁖𰁅𰁊𰁏𰁈𰀁 allergies to neomycin or gelatin. 𰁴𰀁 𰀁𰁉𰁂𰁅𰀁𰁂𰁏𰀁𰁂𰁍𰁍𰁆𰁓𰁈𰁊𰁄𰀁𰁓𰁆𰁂𰁄𰁕𰁊𰁐𰁏𰀁𰁕𰁐𰀁𰁂𰁏𰁐𰁕𰁉𰁆𰁓𰀁 vaccine. 𰁴𰀁 𰀁𰁂𰁓𰁆𰀁𰁑𰁓𰁆𰁈𰁏𰁂𰁏𰁕𰀁𰁐𰁓𰀁𰁑𰁍𰁂𰁏𰀁𰁕𰁐𰀁𰁃𰁆𰁄𰁐𰁎𰁆𰀁 pregnant. 𰁴𰀁 𰀁𰁂𰁓𰁆𰀁𰁃𰁓𰁆𰁂𰁔𰁕𰀎𰁇𰁆𰁆𰁅𰁊𰁏𰁈𰀏

SCREEN YOURSELF FOR SKIN CANCER With swimsuit season upon us, now’s a good time for a full-body scan, says Robert Anolik, M.D.

To see what’s normal—and what’s not— go to Parade .com/skin

1

First, learn the ABC’s of mole inspection. A is for asymmetry and B is for border; pay attention to moles with irregular edges.

C stands for color; multicolored moles—ones with black, brown, and white tones, for example—are more suspicious. D stands for diameter; any mole greater than the size of an eraser head should be checked. E is for evolving; if a mole changes, seek medical attention.

2

Stand in front of a fulllength mirror and examine yourself from all angles.

Use a hand mirror for the back of your torso, the backs of your upper arms, and other hard-to-see areas.

3

Sit on the floor and inspect your feet. Be sure to look between your toes, where cancer can also appear.

4

Scan your face under a bright light for pink, pearly patches, which could indicate basal cell cancer.

The exact date of the claim filing deadline will be posted on the website. It is highly recommended that Medical Class Members complete and submit their claim forms promptly.

Class members’ payments will not be reduced if the Court approves the payment of Class Counsel fees, costs, and expenses because BP will separately pay these attorney fees, costs, and expenses.

few years after

Mom died, Dad showed up for lunch wearing the soft smile that took over his face whenever he was thinking about her.

“Found these,” he said, handing me a lumpy plastic bag. “She would have wanted you to have them.”

When I started to peek into the bag, he cleared his throat and said, “Later, okay?” Off we went, to a burger joint down the street.

That evening, I opened the bag to find dozens of clamshells, each one ssue wrapped in white tissue paper and bearing Mom’s on: Stone handwritten inscription: Harbor, N.J.—8-98.

The shells were bleached dirty white and streaked with tiny threads of gray and brown. Pretty plain, but to Mom, they were evidence of her endlessly magical life.

She was 61 when she collected these shells, and already showing signs of the lung disease that would kill her the next year. We didn’t know that then. We just knew something was wrong and Mom needed an adventure. She suggested dinner and a movie. Two friends and I had bigger plans.

Our working-class mother never took beach vacations, unless you counted the hundreds of bike rides to Lake Erie’s shore. Mom had been to the ocean only twice, on trips to the East Coast with Dad after I went to college. She loved the seashore. Her kitchen, decorated with souvenirs from those two trips, looked like a shrimp boat.

saw a backseat full of confusion.

“Mom,” I said. “You mean Dead Poets Society.”

“That’s it!” Mom yelled. Laughter filled the car. We went on to discuss The Unmasked Man (Man in the Iron Mask), Wanting Ned (Waking Ned Devine), and my own favorite, Texas Jigsaw Massacre.

“No, Janey,” my friend Fleka told Mom. “You mean Texas Chainsaw Massacre. The Jigsaw Massacre was the sequel, when they tried to piece back together all the body parts.”

Once we got to Stone Harbor, Mom acted like the town mayor, greeting everyone as if they were loyal constituents. She giggled herself pink when a stranger flirted with her, read tabloids when she thought I wasn’t looking, and spent hours collecting shells on the beach. The morning we left, I found her photographing every inch of her bedroom. “I don’t ever I treasure the shells Mom found on a 1998 want to forget this,” she said. beach trip.

Ask Marilyn

By Marilyn vos Savant If a person did not smile at all, would he or she develop the same wrinkles around the mouth as people who do smile?

—Marissa Tautunk, Agoura Hills, Calif.

No. Smiling (and frowning) does cause many of the permanent facial creases that develop as skin ages. Some people are so attentive to this that they stay as expressionless as possible. Most people, of course, think that’s too high a price to pay for a somewhat smoother face. Besides, other factors are at work: sun exposure; a loss of facial fat, collagen, and elastin over time; and more. There’s no solution, but one thing you can do is stop “making faces.” Some people routinely use facial muscles to amplify their remarks, get attention, and communicate nonverbally, the way new parents do with a baby. This habit repeatedly stretches your facial skin—and worse, it makes you look like a lightweight! ®

Who doesn’t love fried chicken? I grew up eating it cold, since my mom would make it to take on car trips. It tastes so good that way.

Six years ago, I was in Memphis shooting a movie and someone brought fried chicken from Gus’s. I got really obsessed.

It started me on my fried chicken path, and I’ve been tweaking my recipe ever since. Theirs had something spicy in it, so I started adding hot sauce to mine; I like a little kick. And I only use legs and thighs—they’re smaller and they cook more evenly.

The onions are special, too; they add a nice sweetness. Some people run cold water over onions before cutting them up, but I always forget and end up weeping. If an onion gets stuck to a piece of chicken, don’t separate them. Whoever gets that piece is lucky!

MY MOM WOULD TAKE COLD FRIED CHICKEN ON CAR TRIPS. IT TASTES SO GOOD THAT WAY.”

P “B “Be sure to have a fire extinguisher nearby when frying!”

P “Onion rings cook faster than chicken and burn easily, so watch them carefully.”

Fried Chicken and Onions 10 chicken legs and thighs 1 large yellow onion, sliced into rings 4 cups buttermilk Onion powder Garlic powder Cayenne pepper 4 shakes hot sauce (like Valentina) Salt 2 cups flour 1 tsp black pepper Vegetable oil 1 Tbsp chopped parsley

1. In a large bowl, combine chicken, onion, buttermilk,

½ tsp onion powder, ½ tsp garlic powder, ½ tsp cayenne, hot sauce, and salt to taste.

2. Cover and set aside for at least 30 minutes.

3. In a paper grocery bag, combine flour, black pepper, and a dash each of onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne, and salt.

4. In a large, heavy skillet, heat oil over medium-high until very hot. It should be deep enough to cover chicken halfway.

5. Drain chicken and onion rings. Shake them in grocery bag until coated

with flour mixture.

6. Transfer chicken and onion rings to skillet. Be careful not to overcrowd.

7. Fry, turning occasionally, for 10 to 14 minutes per side or until golden brown and fully cooked.

Remove onion rings earlier to avoid overbrowning.

8. Drain chicken and onion rings on a wire rack.

Sprinkle with parsley.
