Deschutes County air ambulance coverage areas

ST. LOUIS — Genetics researchers at Washington University, one of the world’s leading centers for work on the human genome, were devastated.

Dr. Lukas Wartman, a young, talented and beloved colleague, had the very cancer he had devoted his career to studying. He was deteriorating fast. No known treatment could save him. And no one, to their knowledge, had ever investigated the complete genetic makeup of a cancer like his.

So one day last July, Dr. Timothy Ley, associate director of the university’s genome institute, summoned his team. Why not throw everything they had at seeing if they could find a rogue gene spurring Wartman’s cancer, adult acute lymphoblastic leukemia? “It’s now or never,” he recalled telling them. “We will only get one shot.”

ompetition between two air ambulance companies in Central Oregon appears to be driving up the cost of coverage.

Patients can be charged up to $30,000 if they have to be transported by air ambulance, and a membership is the only way to avoid the hefty bill. The two companies — AirLink and Life Flight Network — and some first responders are now advising people to purchase memberships in both. Each charges $60 a year for a family membership.

Until recently, AirLink was the only air ambulance based in Central Oregon,

and even if AirLink members were transported by a different company in Oregon, those companies often had agreements to honor each others’ memberships.

That changed earlier this year. In February, Aurora-based Life Flight expanded into Central Oregon, with a base in Redmond. In April, St. Charles Health System sold AirLink to the for-profit company Metro Aviation, based in Shreveport, La. AirLink and Life Flight previously had a reciprocity agreement, but that ended after Metro Aviation acquired AirLink.

Fire Chief Matt Smith with Crook County Fire & Rescue said he wants to stay out of

“It’s definitely a difficult issue for us, so we’re always advising people to buy both memberships, because you never know which helicopter is going to show up,” Smith said.

The prospect of paying for two memberships upsets some Central Oregonians.

Farmer Gary Harris, 66, lives north of Madras and is one of the AirLink members who must now decide whether to purchase memberships in both companies. “The ambulance deal is a real sorry situation,” he said during his lunch break Thursday.

With funding for a new K-8 school at stake, leaders of the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs are encouraging their members to get out and vote Tuesday.

The tribes are holding a second vote after a $10.7 million school referendum received overwhelming support from tribal members who voted in May but failed to draw the required one-third of eligible voters to the polls.

In the same election, Jefferson County School District voters approved a $26.7 million bond measure that included $10.7 million for the new school in Warm Springs contingent on matching funds from the tribes’ referendum.

The fact that bond funding for the new school is now on the table could encourage more members to vote, said Urbana Ross, chief operations officer for the tribes. Many people said they didn’t vote in May because they thought the bond measure would fail anyway, she said.

In May, 77 percent of voters supported the referendum, but it fell about 370 votes short of the 1,022 required.

Ley’s team members tried a type of analysis they had never done before. They fully sequenced the genes of both his cancer cells and healthy cells for comparison, and analyzed his RNA, a close chemical cousin to DNA, for clues to what his genes were doing.

This novel method, known as whole genome sequencing, focuses on genes that drive a cancer, not the tissues or organ where it originates. And it could revolutionize tailormade treatments.

The researchers on the project put other work aside for weeks, running one of the university’s 26 sequencing machines and supercomputer around the clock.

5 myths about the ‘veepstakes’

By Scott Farris Special to The Washington Post

Every presidential election cycle, once a party’s nominee becomes clear, we focus on the veepstakes.

Whom will Mitt Romney choose? Will he play it safe with a traditional pick, such as Walter Mondale in 1976 or Jack Kemp in 1996? Or take a chance, as John McCain did with Sarah Palin in 2008?

Either way, there is no evidence that a running mate plays a great part in voters’ decisions.

But that can’t stop us from considering these five misconceptions about the office:

1.

Being the vice presidential nominee is a steppingstone to the presidency.

This is true, if your ticket wins. Fourteen vice presidents have become president. Five were elected in their own right; eight ascended to the office when the president died of natural causes or assassination; and one moved up when the president resigned. The odds of a vice president becoming president are about 1 in 3.

But the odds are far worse for the vice presidential nominee on a losing ticket. Only one, Franklin Roosevelt, who was James Cox’s vice presidential choice in 1920, went on to be elected president — and that wasn’t until 12 years later.

In fact, only one other losing vice presidential nominee later won his party’s presidential nod: Bob Dole, Gerald Ford’s running mate in 1976. And Dole did not become the GOP presidential nominee until his third try, when he lost to President Bill Clinton in 1996.

Being the losing VP candidate can end a promising political career, though not all have such a comedown (if you want to take the negative view of her post-2008 career) as Palin, who later resigned as governor, or John Edwards, who’s been tarnished by a high-profile affair and a criminal trial. Still, the prospects for a losing VP pick are glum enough that potential nominees might heed Daniel Webster, who declined the offer to run for vice president several times, saying: “I do not propose to be buried until I am dead.”

A VP nominee’s most im2. portant role is to balance the ticket.

This is true sometimes, as

An example of when the vice president, ahem, “mattered”: In 1981, President Ronald Reagan was seriously wounded in an assassination attempt, but he remained officially in charge. His officials were criticized for not transferring power to the vice president, George H.W. Bush. Four years later, when Reagan underwent surgery, Bush served as acting president for eight hours. Bush later became commander in chief in his own right — but even that isn’t guaranteed, as history shows.

his chances with an exciting VP choice. That was part of Mondale’s thinking in 1984 when he selected Geraldine Ferraro, a New York congresswoman, to be the first female vice presidential nominee for a major party. But this was after the National Organization for Women demanded that Mondale select a woman, muting the impact of his choice. He lost 49 states to Ronald Reagan.

Polls show that the 2012 race should be close, but Romney is running far behind among Hispanic voters, the nation’s fastest-growing demographic. He could turn to Florida Sen. Marco Rubio or Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval to try to change that, but obvious pandering is poor politics, and Sandoval especially is, arguably, inexperienced on the national stage.

A nominee’s selection of a 5. running mate reveals how he would govern.

Actually, it’s more about politics than governance. As recently as 1920, when convention delegates ignored Warren Harding’s choice of a running mate and selected Calvin Coolidge instead, presidential nominees had very little to say about who their running mates would be.

But in recent decades, presidential nominees have become increasingly engaged in the vetting and selection process because none of them want a repeat of the debacle of 1972, when George McGovern had to drop Thomas Eagleton from the ticket after revelations that Eagleton had undergone electroshock therapy.

Even if not prophetic, the choice says something about the presidential nominee. The Palin pick underscored McCain’s impulsive streak, while Biden suggests Obama was aware of his inexperience.

Romney’s choice will reveal something about his nature, too, though, if history is any guide, it will say more about what he thinks he needs to do to win the election than how he would govern the nation.

Despite all the vetting, the key question — will the running mate be up to the rigors and scrutiny of a national campaign? — can’t be answered until after the selection.

— Jan Georges, Roswell, Ga. The Federal Communications Commission will require commercials to have the same average volume as the programs they accompany

by Dec. 13, 2012, according to the Commercial Advertisement Loudness Mitigation Act. The FCC adopted this rule at the end of 2011, and gave broadcast stations and pay TV providers one year to become compliant.

The FCC is encouraging viewers to report commercials that seem louder than the programming before the new rule takes effect. Reporting commercials to the FCC will help it identify possible problem areas and evaluate the efficiency of the rule.

about how the money was disbursed.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said that the lives of ordinary Afghans must improve. “That must include fighting corruption, improving governance, strengthening the rule of law, increasing accessibility to economic opportunity for all Afghans, specifically for women,” she said at the conference.

Clinton said the $16 billion was “more than enough” to meet the needs of Afghanistan

over the next four years as assessed by the World Bank.

The Obama administration will ask Congress to sustain U.S. assistance for Afghanistan near the average amount it has been over the last decade through 2017 as part of the international effort to stabilize the country even as most international forces pull out over the next two years. Clinton made that pledge while in Tokyo.

Annual U.S. civilian assistance since 2001 has ranged from $1 billion to this year’s high of $2.3 billion. Clinton said the aid request to Congress would be to maintain funding at or near the average level, without specifying.

TRIPOLI, Libya — Jubilant Libyans chose a new parliament Saturday in their first nationwide vote in decades, but violence and protests in the restive east underscored the challenges ahead as the oil-rich North African nation struggles to restore stability after last year’s ouster of longtime dictator Moammar Gadhafi.

Women ululated, while men distributed sweets and the elderly with canes or wheelchairs struggled to get to polling centers in a show of joy over the most visible step toward democracy since the eccentric ruler was killed by rebel forces in late October after months of bitter civil war.

“Look at the lines. Everyone came of his and her own free will. I knew this day would come and Gadhafi would not be there forever,” said Riyadh al-Alagy, a 50-year-old civil servant in Tripoli. “He left us a nation with a distorted mind, a police state with no institutions.

We want to start from zero.”

But attacks on polling centers in the east — where anger over perceived domination by rivals in the west is fueling a drive for autonomy — laid bare the rifts threatening to tear the nation apart.

Still the election for a 200seat parliament, which will be tasked with forming a new government, was the latest milestone in a revolution stemming from the Arab Spring revolts that led to the successful ouster of authoritarian leaders in Tunisia, Egypt and later Yemen.

Nearly 2.9 million Libyans, or 80 percent of Libyans eligible to vote, have registered for the election and more than 3,000 candidates have plastered the country with posters and billboards. Electoral officials said turnout was 60 percent and counting of the ballots had begun.

A Libyan man kisses his ink-marked finger, which shows that he voted, as he drives in Tripoli. Saturday’s voting was far from immaculate: Regional rivalries spilled out in armed assaults on polling places that forced the closing of several in the eastern coastal region. But given the prevailing lawlessness in the nine months since the killing of Moammar Gadhafi, the relatively orderly election reported in most of the country surprised most.

rise to power in Libya where they were long repressed under Gadhafi’s secular rule.

That would leave conservative religious parties with influence over a large and uninterrupted chunk of territory that stretches from Israel’s southern border in Egypt to Tunisia.

One of the main contenders in the race was the Muslim Brotherhood’s Justice and Construction party, which has led one of the best organized and most visible campaigns. Three other parties also expected to perform well were former prime minister Mahmoud Jibril’s secular Alliance of National Forces; former jihadist and rebel commander AbdelHakim Belhaj’s Al-Watan; and the National Front, one of Libya’s oldest political groups.

U.S. Sen. John McCain, RAriz., gave the election a clean bill of health during a visit to Tripoli. “Turnout is very high, polls crowded and people are obviously enthusiastic. Overall it is a successful operation,” he told reporters.

The triumphant mood capped a rocky transition as interim leaders have largely failed to rein in armed militias and provide security while

deepening regional and tribal disputes erupted into bloodshed with alarming frequency.

The new parliament is itself temporary, tasked with forming a new government that will take over until a new constitution is drafted so new elections can be held next year.

Saturday’s violence — one person was killed and two wounded in the country’s east — reflected fears that the country was descending into lawlessness and could face years of instability.

The last parliamentary election in Libya was in 1964, five years before Gadhafi’s military coup that toppled the monarchy.

Vote counting began Saturday night; election officials said they would announce the tally Wednesday. The outcome could give an indication whether Libya will become a united nation keen on rebuilding and moving away from its dark past or fracture along regional, tribal and ethnic lines.

“This election will tell us whether Libya will turn into another Lebanon,” said political analyst Fathy Bin Essa, referring to the Arab nation wracked by a 1975-90 civil war.

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina — Hector Jairo Saldarriaga, alias the Dagger, changed his address here three times in the weeks before his killer finally caught up with him in April in front of a family-run cafe in the middle-class neighborhood of Barrio Norte.

While investigating his death, the police discovered that he had three Argentine passports under false names but was really a Colombian who had once worked as an assassin for a prominent Colombian drug trafficker.

As the trafficking of illegal drugs picks up in Argentina, residents are growing accustomed to front-page news of drug raids, shootouts and the grim reality that the country is no longer simply a transit point for the world’s most-wanted drug traffickers from places like Mexico and Colombia. For many of these outlaws, Argentina has become home base, a comfortable refuge where many of them lie low while keeping a hand in the industry.

Saldarriaga, 39, who was

residing in an unassuming area of Buenos Aires, had been among the most feared assassins working for Daniel Barrera Barrera, a secondgeneration Colombian drug lord nicknamed the Crazy One, the authorities here said.

A former fighter for the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia, or FARC, Saldarriaga was believed to have coordinated the assassination of two former members of the United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia — a right-wing paramilitary group that acts as security for traffickers — in the parking garage of a Buenos Aires shopping mall in June 2008, the Argentine authorities said.

But then, the police said, Saldarriaga may have betrayed his boss by losing or stealing half a ton of cocaine.

Another theory is that Saldarriaga had tried to branch out as a trafficker in his own right in an area controlled by Mexico’s Sinaloa drug gang and was punished for trespassing.

With drug gangs looking to expand their operations, Argentina, which was a transit point in the 1990s, has turned

into a profitable marketplace.

There is a huge local demand for drugs. And unlike governments in some other countries in the region that are engaged in aggressive drug wars, the government here has not yet aimed the full might of its military on traffickers.

“They haven’t come up against any problems with the courts — there is no war on narcos in Argentina,” said Claudio Izaguirre, president of the Antidrug Association of the Argentine Republic.

Argentina’s Security Ministry, in an effort to show its resolve in taking on traffickers, makes near daily announcements of its latest cocaine or marijuana raid, or discovery of a synthetic-drug laboratory.

In recent weeks, the authorities found seven tons of marijuana in a house in Posadas, just across the Parana River from Paraguay; arrested a corporal of Argentina’s paramilitary police for carrying about 243 pounds of cocaine in his car; and apprehended a government ambulance, its sirens blaring and a patient in the back, with about 55 pounds of cocaine.

Youth group behind Egypt revolt disbands CAIRO — Egypt’s Revolutionary Youth Coalition, which drew thousands to Cairo’s Tahrir Square last year until former President Hosni Mubarak stepped down, officially announced its dissolution Saturday, raising questions over whether hopes of revolutionary change here are over.

The coalition included different groups from across the political spectrum, from secular liberals to conservative Islamists. But disagreements led to its splintering.

103 dead after floods in southern Russia MOSCOW — Intense flooding in the Black Sea region of southern Russia killed 103 people after torrential rains dropped nearly a foot of water, forcing many to scramble out of their beds for refuge in trees and on roofs, officials

said Saturday.

Many people were asleep when the flooding hit overnight in the Krasnodar region, and the water rushed into the area around the hard-hit town of Krimsk with such speed and volume that rumors emerged that local officials had opened a nearby water reservoir. Muddy water coursed through streets and homes, in some cases high enough to flow over the hoods of cars and even as high as rooftops, according to witnesses.

Mexicans march against vote result MEXICO CITY — Tens of thousands of people marched in Mexico’s capital on Saturday to protest Enrique Peña Nieto’s apparent win in the country’s presidential election, accusing his long-ruling party of buying votes.

The protesters were angered by allegations that Peña Nieto’s Institutional Revolutionary Party gave out bags of gro-

ceries, prepaid gift cards and other goods to voters ahead of July 1 national elections. The students, unionists and leftists in the march carried signs reading, “Peña, how much did it cost to become president?”

Mexico City officials put the size of the crowd at 50,000.

Israeli reservists rally over draft exemption JERUSALEM — Thousands of Israeli reservists and their supporters are rallying in Tel Aviv to protest draft exemptions for ultra-Orthodox Jews.

Many of the protesters marching Saturday carried placards reading “everybody serves.”

Tens of thousands of ultraOrthodox Jews are exempt from compulsory military service. Israel’s Supreme Court recently ruled the current exemption system illegal, and the government is scrambling to come up with an alternative

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, JULY 8, 2012

Science Continued from A1 President Barack Obama has made science education a priority, launching a White House science fair to get young people interested in the field.

But it’s questionable whether those youths will be able to find work when they get their doctorates. Although jobs in some high-tech areas, especially computer and petroleum engineering, seem to be booming, the market is much tighter for lab-bound scientists — those seeking new discoveries in biology, chemistry and medicine.

“There have been many predictions of (science) labor shortages and … robust job growth,” said Jim Austin, editor of the online magazine ScienceCareers. “And yet, it seems awfully hard for people to find a job. Anyone who goes into science expecting employers to clamor for their services will be deeply disappointed.”

One big driver of that trend: Traditional academic jobs are scarcer than ever.

Once a primary career path, only 14 percent of those with a Ph.D. in biology and the life sciences now land a coveted academic position within five years, according to a 2009 NSF survey. That figure has been steadily declining since the 1970s, said Paula Stephan, an economist at Georgia State University who studies the scientific workforce. The reason: The supply of scientists has grown far faster than the number of academic positions.

description. In 2009, he was laid off from Albany Molecular Research, a contractor for pharmaceutical companies, after 20 years in the business.

As he applied for 400 chemistry jobs, he worked as a low-wage office temp — and so was not included in the unemployment figures.

“It was quite scary,” said Darey, who this year finally landed another chemist position, at DuPont in Belle, W.Va. “I was watching my bank balance dwindle away, wondering when I’d have to sell the house.”

Where the jobs are

Two groups seem to be doing better than other scientists: physicists and physicians. The unemployment rate among those two groups hovers around 1 to 2 percent, according to surveys from NSF and other groups. Physicists end up working in many technical fields — and some go to Wall Street — while the demand for doctors continues to climb as the U.S. population grows and ages.

But for the much larger pool of biologists and chemists, “It’s a particularly difficult time right now,” Stephan said.

One reason: A glut of new biomedical scientists that entered the field when the economy was healthier. From 1998 to 2003, the budget of the National Institutes of Health doubled to $30 billion per year. That boost — much of which flows to universities — drew in new, young scientists. The number of new Ph.D.s in the medical and life sciences boomed, nearly doubling from 2003 to 2007, Pharmaceutical industry according to the NSF.

Rechanneling the rivalry with China

By Jane Perlez New York Times News Service

TOKYO — At a gathering of business executives in Cambodia this week, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton plans to urge the expansion of U.S. trade and investment across Asia, particularly in Southeast Asian nations on the periphery of China.

It has become more common these days for the nation’s chief diplomat to play a role as a business booster. But the extra attention devoted to economics is intended to send a message that Washington recognizes it initially overemphasized the military comANALYSIS ponent of its new focus on Asia, setting up more of a confrontation with China than some countries felt comfortable with.

“There’s a nervousness that the two of them shouldn’t get into a fight,” said a senior Southeast Asian diplomat, who spoke on the condition of anonymity according to protocol. “No one wants to choose sides” between China and the U.S., he said.

Indeed, both sides have an interest in channeling their rivalry into trade more than weaponry, even as it is clear that China sees itself as increasingly having the upper hand in the region.

“China is the biggest trading partner of ASEAN, Japan, Korea, India and Australia,” Cui Tiankai, a Chinese vice foreign minister, said in a speech in Hong Kong at the Asia Society on Thursday, “and the biggest source of investment for many countries in the region.”

ASEAN is the acronym for the 10-country Association of Southeast Asian Nations.

Clinton arrived in Tokyo today for a meeting of multinational donors to raise billions of dollars for Afghanistan’s post-2014 civilian government.

But much of the rest of her trip in Asia this week will focus on building economic ties to the fast-growing nations of Southeast Asia that are becoming increasingly bound by trade with China. She plans to

Brendan Smialowski / The Associated Press

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton met with Afghan President Hamid Karzai on Saturday in Kabul to formally declare Afghanistan the United States’ newest “major non-NATO ally,” an action designed to maintain a close military relationship after U.S. troops withdraw from the country in 2014. Clinton now travels east to seek aid for Afghanistan’s post-2014 government, and to foster economic relations with Asia’s fast-growing nations themselves — all with an eye on China.

visit Vietnam for an American Chamber of Commerce event, Cambodia to participate in meetings of the ASEAN foreign ministers, and Laos, which has not received a U.S. secretary of state since 1955, when John Foster Dulles visited the newly independent country.

That was another era. Dulles’ mission — his plane landed on a World War II steel mat runway only after buffalo were chased away — was to coax Laos into the anti-Communist camp in the Cold War. Clinton’s purpose, though unstated, will be to encourage Laos, now largely supported by Beijing, to see the U.S. as much of a friend as it does China.

Clinton is popular in Asia, in part because she shows up.

In China and Singapore, she is seen as a powerful presidential contender in 2016.

Wherever she goes, she tries to repair the impression that the Obama administration, in turning its attention to shoring up U.S. military prowess with new weaponry and expanded agreements with Asian allies, is devoting itself to a strategy of containing the growing Chinese military at the expense of integrating Beijing into the

global economic order.

The decision by the U.S. Pacific Command not to invite China to a major U.S. naval exercise off Hawaii last month that included Russia and India, China’s regional rivals, stung even some pro-American policymakers in China who saw it as further evidence of a deliberate containment policy.

Another chore for Clinton will be to allay anxieties about whether Washington, given mounting budget constraints, can follow through on its promises. “The 2013 question that we hear a lot more of is: Can the United States sustain a higher level of commitment as we go forward in the AsianPacific region?” Kurt Campbell, assistant secretary of state for East Asian and Pacific Affairs, said at a conference at the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington last week.

Administration officials acknowledge that more ground in Asia has been ceded to China during Obama’s term, a decline that began as the Bush administration became preoccupied with the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

President Barack Obama, fearful that the U.S. risked

being shunted aside in Asia, embraced an initiative last fall that aims to create a new free trade group among some Asian countries, several Latin American nations and the United States. Canada and Mexico were invited to join the talks at the recent G-20 summit meeting in Mexico. But by not inviting China to participate, Washington again raised suspicions among Chinese economists about its intentions.

“It’s much ado about nothing,” said Fred Hu, chairman of the financial advisory firm Primavera Capital Group, and former chairman of Goldman Sachs in greater China. “How can you have a credible trade organization if you exclude the biggest trading nation?”

Clinton’s Asia tour is seen in the region as being prompted in part by China’s success in turning itself into the engine of Asia’s economic powerhouse.

And Washington is worried about being left on the outside looking in.

“Asian integration without the United States is the real competition,” said Liu Xuecheng, one of China’s leading experts on America. That, he said, is “the real challenge to the United States.”

Talks with the Taliban — but which Taliban?

• The U.S. effort to bring peace by 2014 is actually splintering the militant group

By Kathy Gannon The Associated Press

ISLAMABAD — As the United States and its allies try to negotiate a peace settlement with the Taliban before all combat troops leave Afghanistan in 2014, a new obstacle has arisen: Insurgent splinter groups opposed to the deal are emerging, complicating U.S. hopes of leaving behind a stable country.

These splinter groups have demonstrated their strength recently, with two brazen killings — one of a high-ranking Taliban leader and the other of a senior member of the Afghan government’s High Peace Council.

That new violence has added to the difficulty of striking a deal with the Taliban as the clock continues to wind down with only 21⁄2 years to go before the planned withdrawal. Failure to figure out all these new players in Afghanistan’s varied ethnic and political groups threatens to plunge the country into more civil strife.

“I am very pessimistic,” said Moeed Yusuf of the U.S. Institute of Peace in Washington.

He warns that Afghanistan seems poised to repeat the devastation of the early 1990s after the Soviet withdrawal. At that time, rival rebel factions previously united against the Soviets turned their guns on each other, killing tens of thousands of civilians and paving the way for the Taliban takeover.

As more decision-makers emerge on the scene, it is becoming more difficult to secure a peace deal that can withstand the test of time, Yusuf said. “Whatever peace you come up with, I believe it is not sustainable.”

The U.S. began the clandestine talks with the Taliban last year, aided by Germany and secretly held in Qatar. The Taliban broke off talks earlier this year, saying the U.S. reneged

on a promise to release Afghan prisoners from Guantánamo Bay. To get the Taliban back to the table, the U.S. last weekend said it was mulling a proposal to transfer some Guantánamo inmates to a prison in Afghanistan. But Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahed said the group wants the prisoners freed unconditionally.

In the past six months, the Taliban has had increasingly violent clashes with a militant Islamist group called Hezb-eIslami, led by warlord Gulbuddin Hekmatyar. That fighting escalated to all-out war in some parts of Afghanistan.

Hekmatyar is a former U.S. ally who is now on Washington’s wanted list. The Taliban worry that Hekmatyar’s group, which is close to the government of President Hamid Karzai and has held parallel talks with the Americans, will make its own peace deal.

The fissures in the Taliban movement have been further widened by the emergence of the splinter groups opposed to the peace talks.

Simbal Khan, Afghanistan and Central Asia director at the Institute of Strategic

Studies in Islamabad, said the emergence of the splinter groups has not only raised the stakes for the Taliban central command as they approach a deal with the U.S., but also has increased the political costs if the peace process fails.

The U.S. strategy to encourage members of the Taliban to give up the fight and join the government may have backfired, Khan said, driving the disaffected members instead into the arms of the hard-liners rather than to Karzai.

“The latest reports suggest that the new splintered groups do not seek reintegration with the Afghan state, and instead seek to oppose the Mullah Omar-led putative peace process in Qatar,” she said.

Seth Jones of the U.S.-based Rand Corp. has monitored fighting between the Taliban and Hezb-e-Islami, led by the warlord Hekmatyar, since 2009. He anticipated more

fighting ahead of 2014, calling it “eerily reminiscent of Afghanistan in the early 1990s.”

“In short, a precipitous U.S. drawdown from Afghanistan could increase the probability of a civil war among Afghan factions,” Jones said.

Hekmatyar’s brother-in-law, Ghairat Baheer, said the fighting would stop if troops left.

Khan said battle fatigue may be the only thing to save the peace process. “Once a peace process is truly under way, marginal groups within the Taliban and without will find themselves isolated and more manageable. There is war fatigue in all Afghans, Afghanistan’s neighbors and the Taliban.”

SUNDAY, JULY 8, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

Health care brawl moves to exchanges New York Times News Service Critics of the new health care law, having lost one battle in the Supreme Court, are mounting a challenge to President Barack Obama’s interpretation of another important provision, under which the federal government will subsidize health insurance for millions of low- and middle-income people.

Starting in 2014, the law requires most Americans to have health insurance. It also offers subsidies to help people pay for insurance bought through markets known as exchanges.

At issue is whether the subsidies will be available in exchanges set up and run by the federal government in states that fail or refuse to establish their own exchanges. Critics say the law allows subsidies only for people who obtain coverage through staterun exchanges. The White House says the law can be read to allow subsidies for people who get coverage in federal exchanges as well.

The law says that “each state shall” establish an exchange. But Washington could be running the exchanges in one-third to half of states. The dispute has huge practical implications.

The Congressional Budget Office predicts that 23 million uninsured people will gain coverage through exchanges and that all but 5 million of them will qualify for subsidies.

Workers Continued from A1 They’re doing it to sell products portrayed as minor luxuries.

The jobs report released Friday — showing only 80,000 jobs created in June — reinforced a bleak outlook for the nation’s unemployed. For those lucky enough to have work, the conventional wisdom has been “Keep your head down, don’t make waves.”

But marketers are urging workers to commit small acts of so-called rebellion — like taking a vacation, or going on a lunch break.

That’s the message the Vegas ad — echoing a pivotal sequence in the 1979 film “Norma Rae,” in a wider campaign called “Take Back Your Summer” — is sending. The same for McDonald’s, which launched a campaign called “It’s your lunch. Take it” this spring. Meant to promote the Premium Chicken Sandwich and the Angus Third Pounder Deluxe burger, it included taglines like “A lunch revolution has begun,” “It’s time to overthrow the working lunch” and “A sesame seed of revolt has been planted.”

Ambulance Continued from A1 Harris paid the annual AirLink membership fees for roughly 15 years because he wanted to be covered in case he was injured on the job.

“If I’m out here on my tractor and I get run over or hurt and I need (air transport), they call the nearest provider and that could be Life Flight out of Redmond,” Harris said. “So now I’m required to have two memberships.”

Soon after Life Flight announced it was expanding to Central Oregon, fire officials produced a matrix to determine whether to call AirLink or Life Flight, based on which is closer, said Assistant Chief Tom Jaca with Jefferson County Fire District No. 1.

But the decision is often more complicated.

If the closest air ambulance is already busy handling another patient, dispatchers will call in the next closest company. First responders try to determine whether a patient is a member of one of the companies, but in some cases, the patient is unconscious or cannot respond.

AirLink and Life Flight also transfer critically ill pa-

For Scientologists, divorce isn’t easy

ogy, married in 1995, and she joined the church, too. Five years later the marriage was falling apart, she said.

Before deciding to divorce, the couple agreed to pay for a form of counseling that Llywelyn said entails sitting in a room answering questions while hooked up to a device known as an E-meter, which Scientologists believe can detect unexpressed thoughts.

She said a chaplain, also known as an auditor, questioned them for hours.

“You do it until the needle is flat, until the sign on the machine doesn’t read any more thoughts,” she said. “They think that once you unload all these bad things, you’re going to fall madly back in love with each other.”

And when they didn’t, Llywelyn said, she was assigned an in-house lawyer.

“Scientologists aren’t allowed to sue each other,” she said, because of a policy to contain any public disputes.

Pearce confirmed that the church offers counseling but declined to provide details, saying only, for further information, consult the website.

Similarly, Karin Pouw, a spokeswoman for the Church of Scientology International, offered only emailed links to the church’s official website, which provides little information about divorce but offers

this on its counseling program: “Scientology Marriage Counseling is an exact procedure for alleviating marital problems.”

It also says that “chaplains have successfully salvaged thousands of marriages.”

The organization’s approach to divorce can be gleaned from the writings and life of L. Ron Hubbard, the church’s founder, who was married three times.

In “Introduction to Scientology Ethics,” he wrote, “Man has been frantic about the high divorce rate, about the high job turnover in plants, about labor unrest and many other items all stemming from the same source — sudden departures or gradual departures.”

A close reading of the book suggests that Hubbard was less concerned about the breakup of marriages than about having people break away from Scientology. Sometimes students leave and never come back.

“And that gives us more trouble than most other things all combined,” he wrote.

Yet sometimes, according to Claire Headley, another former member, the church encourages divorce. Headley said she was told that she must divorce her husband of 12 years, Marc Headley, or be kicked out of the Religious Technology Center, a Scientology compound near Hemet, Calif., that is known as Gold Base. Claire Headley said that she had grown up in the church and it was all she knew but that she and her husband began having trouble after expressing doubts about church authorities.

“At the last minute I was wavering on whether I should just divorce Marc,” said Headley, who, like her husband, has since filed suit against the church. Instead, she left Gold

Base in 2004, three weeks after he did, and together they moved to Colorado.

Being asked to divorce was not unusual at Gold Base, Headley said.

Steve Hall, who lives in Dallas, said he blamed the church for the dissolution of his 16year marriage to Sue Turton, after he decided to leave the church and Gold Base in 2004.

“With tears streaming down both our faces, we hugged each other and then she was taken away,” Hall wrote in an email.

He noted that he was later labeled “declared,” which he and other former members say means that none of his former friends and associates in the church are allowed to talk to him.

A lawyer and spokesman for the church, Gary Soter, denied this account. “The church is aware that a handful of disaffected and excommunicated members have made false and/or misleading statements about the church and their experiences within the church,” Soter wrote in an email. “Mr. Hall’s allegations are false.”

Soter also wrote that he had spoken with Turton, “who categorically denies Mr. Hall’s claim” and that she asked him to respond on her behalf.

Soter’s comments came in response to a reporter’s request to interview Turton.

“Ms. Turton and Mr. Hall mutually decided to divorce upon his departure from the Scientology religious order,” Soter wrote.

“She is in the Church because it provides her with spiritual fulfillment and because she is doing her part to help mankind,” he wrote, adding, “she loves her work and ‘loves what she is doing.’”

it to promote its product,” said Harry Katz, dean of the Cornell University School of Industrial and Labor Relations.

“They are using it in a somewhat manipulative way.”

Nevertheless, the appeals to downtrodden workers keep coming. If a mere lunch break or a weeklong vacation is not enough of a respite, workers can enter a contest called “Take the Year Off,” sponsored

by Gold Peak Tea. The tea brand, owned by Coca-Cola, will pay $100,000 to the winner to take a year off work to do whatever he or she pleases. Contestants have to describe how they would use their time. Gold Peak will narrow the entries to five finalists, and fans of the brand on Facebook will vote for the winner.

Images from the Facebook page show office workers under various states of duress. In one photo, a man in a suit rests his head in his hands as paperwork piles up around him.

In another, a woman is seen kneeling against a file cabinet, her mouth open in a scream of desperation.

A mock classified ad on the Facebook page calls for a “selfstarter who performs well under zero stress.”

Chris Johnston, who heads

U.S. tea brands at Coca-Cola North America, said the images were meant to have some fun and offer relief to workers.

“We know people are stressed out right now, and we like to think of Gold Peak Tea as the perfect antidote,” Johnston said.

Indeed, the tone for many of the advertisements is light and funny — a more effective advertising technique than focusing solely on price or promotional offers, according to research by Nielsen.

“You can make a connection when you laugh; you can make a connection when they tug at your heartstrings,” said James Russo, the vice president for global consumer insights at Nielsen. “That is the single most important dynamic.”

Ads that focus on overall value to the consumer — showing that a product is both healthy and affordable, for example — also do well in tough economic times, Russo said.

“The McDonald’s ads work because they focus on the value of the meal and the value of a person’s time,” he said.

Sentimentality is also effective in a recession, according to Nielsen.

An ad campaign for Huffy plays on both sentimental-

ity and rebellion, encouraging adults to reclaim the joys of adulthood from the demands of everyday life.

“Adulthood is the bully who stole your bike. Take it back,” reads one ad featuring a woman on a bicycle in a park. Behind her, in the distance, are towering piles of dirty dishes.

“What advertising isn’t about escaping these days?” said Scott Morgan, the president of Brunner, the agency that worked on the campaign for Huffy.

The core target for the campaign is women 30 to 49 years old. “At 4 mph it can outrun anything,” reads another ad showing a woman leaning on her bicycle in the middle of a field of baskets full of laundry.

A third ad reads, “Put yourself on your to-do list.”

“It’s just a great way to escape that day-to-day, nose-tothe-grindstone experience,” said Ray Thomson, the executive vice president for marketing and product development at the Huffy Corp. “People feel a great need to kind of take a breath and say, ‘Hey look, I need to focus on my family and look for economical ways to have fun with my family.’ ”

When Scientologists marry, the words conveyed in the church’s wedding service typically contain plenty of warnings that couples are expected to uphold their commitments even when romance and good fortune wane: “Know that life is stark and often somewhat grim, and tiredness and fret and pain and sickness do beget a state of mind where spring romance is far away and dead.”

Couples like Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise who are looking to end their marriages are expected to find — through the Scientology organization — ways of working things out. So divorce for Scientologists can often be a long and difficult process, according several former members of the church.

As in other religions, the ultimate dissolution of a marriage is “something that’s taken up in a legal court,” said the Rev. Ann Pearce, a spokeswoman for the Church of Scientology of Washington state.

“That’s between two individuals, just like anybody of any religion getting divorced,” she said, adding, “There’s no ceremony recognizing divorce in the Church of Scientology.”

But along the way, former church members say, couples face unusual marital counseling sessions and are sometimes pressured to use inhouse divorce lawyers.

One former church member who underwent this type of marital counseling is Carmen Llywelyn, 37, an actress and photographer who was once married to Jason Lee, best known for his starring role in NBC’s “My Name Is Earl.”

Llywelyn and Lee, a member of the Church of Scientol-

ment, a woman gets up from her desk and announces, “I’m going to lunch.” Her co-workers try to dissuade her, telling her that the days of taking lunch are long gone.

In a scene reminiscent of “Jerry Maguire,” an inspired colleague stands up and says, “I’m going with her.” The music swells, he tears off the lanyard around his neck and adds, “I don’t want to be chicken, I want to eat it.”

Geoff McCartney, vice president and creative director at DDB Chicago, the agency that worked on the campaign, said the ads were based on a simple precept: “That busy people should take some time for a decent lunch.”

“Work-life balance is really at a tipping point,” he said.

“People don’t have a break for lunch, and they feel like they can’t take one for whatever reason.” Marketers are adopting the theme of workers’ rights at a time when unions themselves are confronting declines in membership and influence. In effect, some labor experts say, they are turning a pro-worker theme on its head to serve the corporate interest.

“It’s an effort by management to co-opt the Occupy Wall Street spirit and redirect

tients between hospitals. St. Charles has an agreement with AirLink to treat the company as its preferred transport provider.

In addition to hospitals in Bend and Redmond, St. Charles Health System operates Pioneer Memorial Hospital in Prineville. Mountain View Hospital in Madras operates independently, although St. Charles provides management services.

In April, after Metro Aviation purchased AirLink, Life Flight CEO Michael Griffiths said it was unclear whether reciprocity could continue because most past agreements were between nonprofit companies. Griffiths’ statement was echoed last week by many Central Oregon first responders who had heard the air ambulances could no longer honor each others’ memberships because of AirLink’s for-profit status.

However, Life Flight marketing director Erick Borland said Thursday that AirLink and Life Flight could legally agree to honor memberships in both companies. Borland said AirLink’s for-profit business model actually is not an impediment to reciprocity, and Life Flight already has such

an agreement with a for-profit company in Idaho. Borland did not know whether Life Flight executives had attempted to reach a new reciprocity agreement with AirLink, and a spokeswoman for AirLink could not be reached Friday.

Smith, the fire chief with Crook County Fire & Rescue, said air ambulance coverage in Central Oregon has improved since a second company came to the area. It is unclear whether the number of medical transports by helicopter and airplane has increased now that two companies operate here.

St. Charles spokeswoman Lisa Goodman said the number of daily flights by AirLink had decreased over the past seven years, from four per day to 1.3 before the service was purchased by Metro Aviation.

According to an AirLink document provided by the new owners, the company averages two to three transports per day.

Life Flight would not release information on how often it transports patients in Central Oregon. “We really consider that proprietary,” Borland said.

Tribes Continued from A1 “It’s just a matter of making sure people can get (to the polls),” said Yvonne Iverson, a tribal member whose daughter attends Jefferson County Middle School in Madras.

Closer to home For parents like Iverson, passing the referendum would be a critical step toward providing more local education in Warm Springs.

There is no middle or high school on the reservation.

A new K-8 school would replace the aging Warm Springs Elementary and allow middle school students to attend closer to home.

Iverson’s daughter gets on the bus at 7 a.m. to attend school more than 20 miles down the highway.

Some students who live farther away are picked up even earlier to get to class before the 8:30 a.m. bell, she said.

While her daughter will move on to high school before the K-8 would open, Iverson said the building would serve as community center and a source of pride among tribal members.

Ross said she hopes having a local middle school would help keep kids in class and increase parent participation.

“There is a comfort level with sending kids to a local school,” she said.

Ross added that the school district has open enrollment, so parents on the reservation could still choose to send their children to school in Madras.

Could open in 2014 If the referendum passes, the 80,000-square-foot school could open with room for about 740 students as early as fall 2014.

Moving forward, the tribes could push to build a high school and possibly form a school district of their own, Ross said.

The tribes have two options to secure a bank loan to provide their share of the school’s costs. They could pursue a 90 percent loan guarantee from the U.S. Department of Agriculture or use the success of the recently opened Indian Head Casino to assure the repayment of the loan, Ross said.

Jefferson County School District officials have said they will hold off on issuing bonds for the Warm Springs school until, and if, the referendum passes.

The remainder of the bond measure will fund a new stadium, track, tennis courts and a performing arts center for the district.

COMPARE Wartman’s DNA sequences showed some genetic mutations possibly related to his leukemia, but none seemed treatable. But RNA sequencing revealed that a normal gene, FLT3, was overactive in his leukemia cells.

TARGET The FLT3 gene helps create new white blood cells in the marrow. The cells in Wartman’s marrow were covered with an extremely high number of FLT3 receptors, which appeared to be driving the growth of his leukemia.

Leukemia Continued from A1 And they found a culprit — a normal gene that was in overdrive, churning out huge amounts of a protein that appeared to be spurring the cancer’s growth.

Even better, there was a promising new drug that might shut down the malfunctioning gene — a drug that had been tested and approved only for advanced kidney cancer. Wartman became the first person ever to take it for leukemia.

And now, against all odds, his cancer is in remission and has been since last fall. While no one can say that Wartman is cured, after facing certain death last fall, he is alive and doing well.

Wartman is a pioneer in a new approach to stopping cancer. What is important, medical researchers say, is the genes that drive a cancer, not the tissue or organ — liver or brain, bone marrow, blood or colon — where the cancer originates.

One woman’s breast cancer may have different genetic drivers from another woman’s and, in fact, may have more in common with prostate cancer in a man or another patient’s lung cancer.

Under this new approach, researchers expect that treatment will be tailored to an individual tumor’s mutations, with drugs, eventually, that hit several key aberrant genes at once. The cocktails of medicines would be analogous to HIV treatment, which uses several different drugs at once to strike the virus in a number of critical areas.

Researchers differ about how soon whole genome sequencing will be generally available and paid for by insurance — estimates range from a few years to a decade or so. But they believe that it has enormous promise, though it has not yet cured anyone.

With a steep drop in the costs of sequencing and an explosion of research on genes, medical experts expect that genetic analyses of cancers will become routine. Just as pathologists do blood cultures to decide which antibiotics will stop a patient’s bacterial infection, so will genome sequencing determine which drugs might stop a cancer. “Until you know what is driving a patient’s cancer, you really don’t have any chance of getting it right,� Ley said. “For the past 40 years, we have been sending generals into battle without a map of the battlefield. What we are doing now is building the map.�

Large drug companies and small biotechs are jumping in, starting to test drugs that attack a gene rather than a tumor type. Leading cancer researchers are starting companies to find genes that might be causing an individual’s cancer to grow, to analyze genetic data and to find and test new drugs directed against these genetic targets. Leading venture capital firms are involved.

For now, whole genome sequencing is in its infancy and dauntingly complex. The gene sequences are only the start — they come in billions of small pieces, like a huge jigsaw puzzle. The arduous job is to figure out which mutations are important, a task that requires skill, experience and instincts.

So far, most who have chosen this path are wealthy and well-connected. When Steve Jobs had exhausted other options to combat pancreatic cancer, he consulted doctors who coordinated his genetic sequencing and analysis. It

cost him $100,000, according to his biographer. The writer Christopher Hitchens went to the head of the National Institutes of Health, Dr. Francis Collins, who advised him on where to get a genetic analysis of his esophageal cancer.

Ethicists ask whether those with money and connections should have options far out of reach for most patients before such treatments become a normal part of medicine. And will people of more limited means be tempted to bankrupt their families in pursuit of a cure at the far edges? “If we say we need research because this is a new idea, then why is it that rich people can even access it?� asked Wylie Burke, professor and chairwoman of the department of bioethics at the University of Washington. The saving grace, she said, is that the method will become available to all if it works.

A life in medicine It was pure happenstance that landed Wartman in a university at the forefront of cancer research. He grew up in small-town Indiana, aspiring to be a veterinarian like his grandfather. But in college, he worked summers in hospitals and became fascinated by cancer. He enrolled in medical school at Washington University in St. Louis, where he was drawn to research on genetic changes that occur in cancers of the blood. Wartman knew then what he wanted to do — become a physician researcher.

Those plans fell apart in the winter of 2002, his last year of medical school, when he went to California to be interviewed for a residency program at Stanford. On the morning of his visit, he was nearly paralyzed by an overwhelming fatigue. “I could not get out of bed for an interview that was the most important of my life,� Wartman recalled. Somehow, he forced himself to drive to Palo Alto in a drenching rain. He rallied enough to get through the day.

When he returned to St. Louis, he gave up running, too exhausted for the sport he loved. He started having night sweats. “I thought it might be mono,� he said. “And I thought I would ride it out.� But then the long bones in his legs began to hurt. He was having fevers.

He was so young then — only 25 — and had always been so healthy that his only doctor was a pediatrician. So he went to an urgent care center in February 2003. The doctor there thought his symptoms might come from depression, but noticed that his red and white blood cell counts were low. And Lukas Wartman, who had been fascinated by the biology of leukemia, began to suspect he had it. “I was definitely scared,� he said. “It was so unreal.�

The next day, Wartman, who was about to graduate from Washington University’s medical school, went back there for more tests. A doctor slid a long needle into his hip bone and drew out marrow for analysis. “We looked at the slide together,� Wartman said, recalling that terrible time. “It was packed with leukemia cells. I was in a state of shock.�

Wartman remained at the university for his residency and treatment: nine months of intensive chemotherapy, followed by 15 months of maintenance chemotherapy. Five years passed when the cancer seemed to be gone. But then it came back. Next came the most risky remedy — intensive chemotherapy to put the

cancer into remission followed by a bone-marrow transplant from his younger brother.

Seven months after the transplant, feeling much stronger, he went to a major cancer meeting and sat in on a session on his type of leukemia. The speaker, a renowned researcher, reported that only 4 or 5 percent of those who relapsed survived. “My stomach turned,� Wartman said. “I will never forget the shock of hearing that number.�

But his personal gauge of recovery — how far he could run — was encouraging.

By last spring, three years after his transplant, Wartman was running six to seven miles every other day and feeling good. “I thought maybe I would run a half marathon in the fall.�

Then the cancer came back.

He remembered that number, 4 or 5 percent, for patients with one relapse. He had relapsed a second time.

This time, he said, “There is no number.�

His doctors put him on a clinical trial to try to beat the cancer with chemotherapy and hormones. It did not work.

They infused him with his brother’s healthy marrow cells, to no avail.

A clue in RNA Wartman’s doctors realized then that their last best hope for saving him was to use all the genetic know-how and technology at their disposal.

After their month of frantic work to beat cancer’s relentless clock, the group, led by Richard Wilson and Elaine Mardis, directors of the university’s genome institute, had the data. It was Aug. 31.

The cancer’s DNA had, as expected, many mutations, but there was nothing to be done about them. There were no drugs to attack them.

But the other analysis, of the cancer’s RNA, was different.

There was something there, something unexpected.

The RNA sequencing showed that a normal gene, FLT3, was wildly active in the leukemia cells. Its normal role is to make cells grow and proliferate. An overactive FLT3 gene might be making Wartman’s cancer cells multiply so quickly. Even better, there was a drug, sunitinib or Sutent, approved for treating advanced kidney cancer, that inhibits FLT3.

But it costs $330 a day, and Wartman’s insurance company would not pay for it. He appealed twice to his insurer and lost both times.

He also pleaded with the drug’s maker, Pfizer, to give him the drug under its compassionate use program, ex-

plaining that his entire salary was only enough to pay for 71â „2 months of Sutent. But Pfizer turned him down too.

As September went by, Wartman was getting panicky. “Every day is a roller coaster,� he said at the time, “and everything is up in the air.�

Desperate to try the drug, he scraped up the money to buy a week’s worth and began taking it on Sept. 16. Within days, his blood counts were looking more normal.

But over dinner at a trendy St. Louis restaurant, he picked at his chicken and said he was afraid to hope. “Obviously it’s exciting,� he said. “But Sutent could have unanticipated effects on my bone marrow.�

Maybe his rising red blood cell counts were just a side effect of the drug. Or maybe they were just a coincidence. “It’s hard to say if I feel any different,� Wartman said.

And the cost of the drug nagged at him. If it worked, how long could he afford to keep taking it?

The next day, a nurse at the hospital pharmacy called with what seemed miraculous news: A month’s supply of Sutent was waiting for Wartman. He did not know it at the time, but the doctors in his division had pitched in to buy the drug.

Two weeks later, his bone marrow, which had been full of leukemia cells, was clean, a biopsy showed.

Still, he was nervous. The test involved taking out just a small amount of marrow.

Cancer cells could be lurking unseen.

The next test was flow cytometry, which used antibodies to label cancer cells. Again, there were no cancer cells.

But even flow cytometry could be misleading, Wartman told himself.

Finally, a yet more sensitive test, called FISH, was done.

It labels cancer cells with fluorescent pieces of DNA to identify leukemia cells. Once again, there were none. “I can’t believe it,� his awestruck physician, Dr. John DiPersio, told him.

Wartman, alone in his apartment, waited for his partner, Damon Berardi, to come home from work. That evening, Berardi, a 31-year-old store manager, opened the door with no idea of Wartman’s momentous news. To his surprise, Wartman was home early, waiting in the kitchen with champagne and two flutes he had given Berardi for Christmas. He told Berardi he should sit down. “My leukemia is in remission,� he said.

The men embraced exultantly, and Wartman popped open the champagne. “I felt an overwhelming

Dr. John DiPersio examines his patient, Dr. Lukas Wartman, in St. Louis early this year. Genetics researchers at Washington University used a novel method known as whole genome sequencing that focuses on the genes that drive a cancer, not the tissues or organ, to develop a treatment. Now, Wartman’s cancer is in remission.

sense of relief and a renewed vision of our future together,�

Berardi said. “There were no tears at that moment. We had both cried plenty. This was a moment of hope.�

Hunches and decisions Wartman and his doctors had fateful decisions to make, with nothing but hunches to guide them. Should he keep taking Sutent or have another bone-marrow transplant now that he was in remission again?

In the end, DiPersio decided Wartman should have the transplant because without it the cancer might mutate and escape the Sutent.

Meanwhile, Pfizer had decided to give him the drug.

Wartman has no idea why.

Perhaps the company was swayed by an impassioned plea from his nurse practitioner, Stephanie Bauer.

Wartman’s cancer is still gone, for now, but he has struggled with a common complication of bone-marrow transplants, in which the white blood cells of the transplanted marrow attack his cells as though they were foreign. He

has had rashes and felt ill. But these complications are gradually lessening, and he is back at work in Ley’s lab.

His colleagues want to look for the same mutation in the cancer cells of other patients with his cancer. And they would like to start a clinical trial testing Sutent to discover whether the drug can help others with leukemia, or whether the solution they found was unique to Lukas Wartman.

Wartman himself is left with nagging uncertainties.

He knows how lucky he is, but what does the future hold? Can he plan a life? Is he cured? “It’s a hard feeling to describe,� he said. “I am in uncharted waters.�

CAMPAIGN 2012

Groups shield businesses’ political gifts

By Mike McIntire and Nicholas Confessore New York Times News Service

Two years after the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision opened the door for corporate spending on elections, relatively little money has actually flowed from company treasuries into super PACs, which can accept unlimited contributions but must also disclose their donors.

Instead, there is evidence that large corporations are trying to influence campaigns through another route: donating money to tax-exempt organizations that can spend millions without being subject to disclosure requirements that apply to candidates, parties and PACs. The giant insurer Aetna directed more than $3 million last year to the American Action Network, a Republican-

leaning nonprofit organization that has spent millions of dollars attacking lawmakers who voted for President Barack Obama’s health care bill — even as Aetna’s president publicly voiced support for the legislation. Other major corporations, including Prudential Financial, Dow Chemical and the drugmaker Merck, have poured millions of dollars more into the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, a tax-exempt trade organization that has pledged to spend at least $50 million on political advertising this election cycle. The secrecy shrouding these groups makes a full accounting of corporate influence on the electoral process impossible. But glimpses of their donors emerged in a New York Times review of corporate governance reports, tax returns filed by nonprofit organi-

zations and regulatory filings by insurers and labor unions.

(See the full review online at http://tinyurl.com/cwekrae.)

The review found that corporate donations — many of them previously unreported — went to groups large and small, dedicated to shaping public policy on both the state and national levels.

‘Social welfare’ groups Some of the biggest recipients of corporate money are organized under Section 501(c)(4) of the tax code, the federal designation for “social welfare” groups dedicated to advancing broad community interests.

Because they are not technically political organizations, they do not have to register with or disclose their donors to the Federal Election Commission, potentially shielding corporate

contributors from shareholders or others unhappy with their political positions.

Labor unions — themselves among the beneficiaries of Citizens United — have also donated millions to national super PACs and state-level nonprofits involved in battles over government spending, collective bargaining and health care.

Efforts in Congress to force more disclosure for politically active nonprofit organizations have been repeatedly stymied

by Republicans, who have described the push as an assault on free speech.

“Companies want to be able to quietly push for their political agendas without being held accountable for it by their customers,” said Melanie Sloan, the executive director of Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington,

which has filed complaints against several issue groups.

“I think the 501(c)(4)s are likely to outweigh super PAC spending, because so many donors want to remain anonymous.”

During the 2010 midterm elections, tax-exempt groups outspent super PACs by a 3to-2 margin. Because social welfare groups are prohibited from devoting themselves primarily to political activity, many spend the bulk of their money on issue advertisements that purport to be educational, not political, in nature. But the Internal Revenue Service has no clear test for determining what constitutes excessive political activity by a social welfare group. And tax-exempt groups are permitted to begin raising and spending money even before the IRS formally recognizes them.

Romney appears to be an affectionate father, seen easily putting his arm around one of his sons as his family relaxed on the lawn behind their lake house. He seems to relish his role as a grandfather: During his vacation, he took some of them around Lake Winnipesaukee on his boat and was spotted on his lawn mower with two grandchildren on his lap.

By Kasie Hunt The Associated Press

WOLFEBORO, N.H. — Mitt Romney’s large family is at the center of his life and his presidential campaign.

His five sons, five daughtersin-law and 18 grandchildren — “a bevy of Romneys,” he’s called them — were right in front of the cameras last week as the Romneys paraded down Main Street in this resort town where the family vacations.

“My family’s so big it takes two risers!” Romney said after he reached the end of the Fourth of July parade route and held a campaign event in a field overlooking Lake Winnipesaukee. As he spoke, he was flanked on two raised platforms by his sons and many grandchildren.

While a few family members sometimes accompany Romney on the trail, the annual family vacation provided a rare opportunity for him to showcase all the members of the group he invokes so often.

They number 30 in all, and his wife, Ann, laments that’s it tough to get them in one place at the same time.

At a time when nontraditional families have become more common, and when even the Romneys watch “Modern Family,” a popular sitcom that centers on unconventional family arrangements, the Romney brood stands out. Mitt and Ann Romney have been married for more than 40 years.

It’s an embodiment of the family values message that resonates with Republicans and Democrats, and it offers a

chance for Romney to portray himself as caring and authentic. That’s a handy perception for him to cultivate in the face of Democratic attempts to paint him as an out-of-touch multimillionaire.

The Romney sons Romney’s two presidential campaigns — he fell short of winning the nomination in 2008 — haven’t been easy on everyone, though.

“The process is tough,” said Tagg Romney, the eldest son.

“The issues that the media focuses on don’t tend to be the largest, most important issues.

The little things that trip you up tend to be little gaffes or slips of the tongue that end up defining the race, and life’s too short for that.”

There are five Romney sons: Tagg, Matt, Josh, Ben and Craig, all tall and photogenic, ages 31 to 42. Three work in real estate, one in private equity; the fifth is finishing his medical residency.

To hear them tell it, Mitt Romney was a consistently engaged father, regularly talking to his boys about career choices. The sons acknowledge that Tagg probably felt the most pressure to follow in his father’s footsteps — and he has, attending Harvard Business School and founding a private equity firm.

Even so, Tagg says his father encouraged each son to choose his own career path, pushing them hard to get good grades and continue their educations beyond college. All five boys

attended the prestigious allboys Belmont Hill School outside Boston, where they were required to play three sports.

The private school was so academically rigorous, one son said, that it made college easy.

All five went to Brigham Young University, the Mormon college in Utah where three met their wives. The three oldest went on to Harvard Business School. Ben went to Tufts Medical School, and Craig has a graduate degree from Columbia.

They all married in their 20s and have 18 children total. The grandkids range in age from just a few weeks — Tagg and his wife, Jen, just had twins that were born via a surrogate — to 16 years. All five Romney daughters-in-law are stay-at-

But his family plays a political role, too, as is tradition in the Romney clan.

Mitt Romney was close to his father, George, who was governor of Michigan and ran for president in 1968. George Romney was very involved in his son’s first political campaign against Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., in 1994. Mitt Romney’s three oldest sons were in college by then, so their childhoods weren’t shaped by his political career, but several have since become close political advisers to their father.

Tagg and Josh are the most involved, while Matt and Craig tend to hang back. Ben is rarely seen on the campaign trail, busy with his medical residency and less interested in politics than the others.

Tagg is the only brother who gets the emails that campaign aides send out to staffers, but both he and Josh follow the campaign’s traveling press corps on Twitter.

Next summer, the lakefront estate could be the Wolfeboro White House. Surrounded by his family on Wednesday, Romney said he and his wife woke up that morning and marveled. “We looked at each other and said, ‘Oh, gosh, our love really started something, didn’t it?’ ”

On the tricky terrain of class, Obama and Romney offer contrasts

By Richard W. Stevenson New York Times News Service

The complex and fraught politics of wealth and class, undercurrents all along in the race between President Barack Obama and Mitt Romney, are surfacing in increasingly visible ways in the campaign, presenting big risks and opportunities to both sides.

The contrasting images of last week could hardly have been more evocative.

There was Obama on Thursday at a carefully scouted location, the Kozy Corners diner in Oak Harbor, Ohio, downing a burger and fries and chatting with a group of working-class voters about pinochle and trips to Disney World. The next day, he reminisced about a Greyhound-and-train trip he took around the country with his grandmother when he was 11.

And there was Mitt Romney on Thursday, roaring across Lake Winnipesaukee on a powerboat large enough to hold two dozen members of his family who had gathered for a weeklong vacation at his estate-size compound in New Hampshire. Today, Romney will raise money among wealthy Republicans in the Hamptons, with his final stop a $75,000-per-couple dinner at

the home of David Koch, the billionaire industrialist, who with his brother Charles has been among the leading financial patrons of the conservative movement.

It was a vivid manifestation of calculations made by both camps. Obama and his allies are testing the proposition that they can avoid tripping over the line into a full-tilt attack on the wealthy and still make an aggressive case that Romney’s success came at the expense of American workers and that the GOP is doing the bidding of its wealthy benefactors.

Romney’s bet is that with the economy failing to gain steam and Americans deeply concerned that the nation is on the wrong track, voters will not really care if he jets across a lake on a water scooter during his vacation and once had a Swiss bank account — as long as he can credibly promise to spur job creation and economic growth. Implicit and explicit efforts by the president and his inner circle to advance the argument that Romney is a rapacious capitalist, in the Romney team’s view, will be seen by voters as a transparent and hypocritical attempt by a group of Democrats, millionaires themselves, to divert attention from

Obama’s failure to preside over more job creation.

“I don’t think what they’re talking about is relevant to people’s lives,” said Stuart Stevens, the chief strategist for Romney’s campaign. “This race is about the economy and Barack Obama’s responsibility for the economy.”

Values voters Presidential campaigns are never just about policies or even personalities. They tend to turn as much as anything on values, and the values in this case go to central questions about the psyche of the U.S. electorate in 2012.

In an era of populist backlashes against the “1 percent” and increased concern about the economic and social ramifications of income inequality, will the long-held assumption that the United States is an aspirational society that admires rather than resents success hold true? At a time when individual billionaires and moneyed interests can play an outsize and often-shadowy role in shaping politics and policy, do political leaders have less incentive to put the needs of the poor and the middle class ahead of the agendas of their benefactors?

Those questions provide

a particular opportunity for Obama, who is eager to raise the stakes in the election and make it something more than a march through four more months of unemployment and job creation reports.

Without explicitly invoking Romney’s wealth as a reason to oppose him, Democrats have sought to portray him as the embodiment of a kind of capitalism that works only for the megarich.

Polling suggests that the Bain Capital-based attacks on Romney are resonating with voters in swing states. But wealth, class and politics are a combustible mix that can blow up in unpredictable ways, and Obama is not without his vulnerabilities on that score.

Like Romney, he has spent a good part of the campaign prospecting for donations among the 1 percent, rubbing shoulders with George Clooney and exhorting his wealthiest backers to give more.

Although he canceled plans to spend time on Martha’s Vineyard this summer and is emphasizing his real-guy side on the campaign trail, he has had troubles connecting with the white working-class voters likely to decide the election.

The question of how hard

to press the wealth-and-class argument has created splits within the Democratic Party; Newark Mayor Cory Booker said the Bain attacks were as “nauseating” as attacks on Obama for his association with the Rev. Jeremiah Wright.

Romney even invoked the aspiration defense when asked about his vacation Friday. “I hope that more Americans are able to take vacations,” he told reporters after criticizing Obama’s record on job creation. “And if I’m president of the United States, I’m going to work very hard to make sure we have good jobs for all Americans who want good jobs.”

But Romney faces the challenge of appealing to the middle class as head of a party that is increasingly reliant on wealthy interests that are powering super PACs and other outside groups advertising heavily on behalf of Republicans.

For the most part, Romney has tried to refocus attention on the economy and avoid tussles that detract from his central message that Obama has failed. Some Republicans say his strategy amounts to a low-risk, run-out-the-clock approach that could, in fact, give Democrats more room to define him on their terms.

Frank Moralez sells cold drinks to motorists on a busy roadway in Philadelphia on Saturday. The heat wave gripping much of the country is continuing its hold, with temperatures of 100 degrees or higher spreading to Northeastern cities including Philadelphia and New York. Temperatures are expected to drop tonight, but the Midwest and Eastern Seaboard are bracing for thunderstorms.

30 dead as heat wave enters the record books Bulletin wire reports Americans dipped into the water, went to the movies and rode the subway just to be in air conditioning Saturday for relief from unrelenting heat that has killed 30 people across half the country.

The heat sent temperatures soaring in more than 20 states, many in the triple digits: 105 in Washington, 106 in St. Louis and 104 in Indianapolis, to name a few. More than 200 record highs were broken Friday throughout the Midwest and along the East Coast, including D.C. On Saturday, it appeared that more records were falling.

If people ventured outside to do anything, they did it early.

But even then, the heat was stifling.

“It was baking on the 18th green,” said golfer Zeb Rogerson, who teed off at 6 a.m. at an Alexandria, Va., golf course but was sweltering by the end of his round.

At least 30 deaths were blamed on the heat, including 10 in Chicago, mostly among the elderly. Heat was also cited as a factor in deaths in Maryland, Ohio, Wisconsin, Tennessee and Pennsylvania.

Officials said the heat caused highways to buckle in Illinois and Wisconsin. In Maryland, investigators said heat likely caused rails to kink and led a green line Metro train to partially derail in Prince George’s County on Friday afternoon.

No one was injured, and 55 passengers were safely evacuated.

“This is becoming a black swan of heat waves, in the sense that it’s such a long heat wave, such a severe heat wave and encompassing such a large area.”

Thousands of mid-Atlantic residents remained without power more than a week after deadly summer storms and extreme heat struck the area, including 120,000 in West Virginia and some 8,000 in the suburbs around Baltimore and Washington, D.C. In the Washington area, Pepco asked customers to conserve power, saying the heat was stressing the system.

“This is becoming a black swan of heat waves, in the sense that it’s such a long heat wave, such a severe heat wave and encompassing such a large area,” said Chris Vaccaro, spokesman for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

The prolonged heat has been the result of a high pressure system that has set up over the central and Eastern parts of the country, said Katie Garrett, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service. The system has been so strong that it has kept storm systems from

moving in and has prevented cold fronts that usually provide relief from sweeping through.

At the same time, moisture and heat from the Gulf of Mexico have been blowing into the Upper Midwest, Garrett said.

In the Midwest, some residents were drawing comparisons between the current heat wave and the severe heat and drought of the 1930s. More than 420 deaths were recorded during a 1936 heat wave in St. Louis, which also saw 153 heat-related fatalities during a 14-day period in 1980.

Around the region, corn and soybean crops shriveled from the heat and the lack of rain. In the hardest-hit and hottest areas, some farmers said they had already given up on their cornfields for the season. Others say much is riding on whether the heat subsides and rain arrives in the next few days, a crucial period for corn pollination.

Even as relief is expected to come by tonight in the form of lower temperatures, forecasters said there was still cause for concern. Severe thunderstorms are expected to blow through the Midwest and along the Eastern Seaboard today and into the early part of the week. This is a particularly unsettling proposition for the Washington area, which was hit by severe storms last weekend that left millions without power and where more fragile, temporary power systems are in place.

Progress in battling acid rain

By Marissa Weiss ScienceNOW

The story of acid rain from the 1970s is preserved in newspaper headlines, textbooks and, it turns out, the soils of the Northeastern United States.

Forty years after humans first began tackling the problem, the impact of acid rain still lingers in New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine, according to a new study. But the research also shows the first signs of recovery.

At the height of the acid rain problem, sulfur dioxide from burning coal drifted into the atmosphere and lowered the pH of rainwater. When this acidic rain fell to the ground, it leached calcium from the soil, depriving plants of a key nutrient. Acid rain also dissolved aluminum-rich minerals, freeing the metal to further poison plants.

To combat the problem, Congress imposed strict emissions regulations on industry in 1970 through the Clean Air Act, which was strengthened in 1990. By 2003, sulfur dioxide raining down on the Northeastern United States had decreased by as much as 40 percent. But were soils improving, too?

To find out, Gregory Lawrence, a biogeochemist at the U.S. Geological Survey in Troy, N.Y., and colleagues tested soils in six spruce forests.

The sites included Adirondack Park in New York, White Mountain National Forest in New Hampshire, Groton State Park in Vermont and two research reserves in Maine. Bur-

ied below the forest floor, soil mixes with rocks that, as they weather, slowly leak calcium.

The researchers reasoned that if they dug beneath the surface, they might find one early indicator of recovery: rising calcium concentrations in soil.

They had first tested the soils in the region in 1992 and 1993.

Eleven years later, they went back and tested again.

There were modest signs of improvement, the team reports in the Soil Science Society of America Journal. Calcium levels in the soil were still low, but aluminum in surface soils had begun to disappear — at least in Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine; New York soils still sported high levels of the metal.

“The way the soils were recovering was not really the way we expected,” Lawrence said.

Lawrence suggests a twostep explanation. First, less acid rain means less aluminum dissolving from minerals and circulating in the soil. Second, surface soils are being replenished by decaying plant matter, which has low levels of aluminum and is essentially diluting the concentration of the metal in soil. “This is a response to the declining acid rain levels,” Lawrence said.

“It’s just being driven more by the plants than it is the geology.”

Calcium is not rebounding in the soil because the rocks at these sites, which are typical of the region, are not rich in the nutrient and weather very slowly, said Lawrence. That’s

one reason the soils take so long to recover. In fact, calcium can buffer soils against some of the worst consequences of acid rain, but now — because there is so little calcium left to stand in the way of harmful chemical reactions such as the ones that mobilize aluminum — these soils “are actually more sensitive to acid rain today than they were 25 years ago,” he said. On their way to recovery these soils are hanging by a precarious thread.

The study “is the first to hint that the deterioration of northeastern U.S. soils from acidic deposition has finally bottomed out,” said Brenden McNeil, a biogeochemist at West Virginia University, who was not involved in the work.

He points out, however, that the impacts of acid rain extend beyond northeastern spruce forests to areas where the extent of the damage and the status of the recovery remain unknown.

A 2012 global acidification assessment reports, for example, that in Canada and Western Europe, sulfur dioxide emissions have declined at about the same rate as in the United States, but in places like China, sulfur dioxide emissions are now reaching levels that haven’t been seen in the U.S. since 1970. Even in the region studied, McNeil said, the subtle improvements in soil are “not near as dramatic as the reductions in emissions” — a sign that clearing the air of sulfur dioxide is just the first milestone on a long road to recovery.

Deschutes names new county forester WASHINGTON WEEK WASHINGTON — On Friday, President Barack Obama signed into law a bundle of legislation passed by Congress in a flurry of activity before a weeklong July Fourth break.

The Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act, known as MAP 21, incorporated a two-year transportation bill, a five-year extension of the National Flood Insurance Program and a bill that will keep the interest rate on certain federal student loans at current levels for another year.

The House last passed a 90-day extension of the transportation bill in April, marking the ninth time a 2009 law had been extended. The new legislation, which lasts through 2014, provides more than $100 billion for transportation projects, keeping an estimated 2.8 million construction workers employed.

MAP 21 also keeps the interest rate on Stafford loans at 3.4 percent. Had Congress failed to take action, the interest rate would have doubled to 6.8 percent.

In signing the bill, Obama said he appreciated congressional Democrats and Republicans working together to reach a compromise.

“My hope is that this bipartisan spirit spills over into the next phase, that we can start putting more construction workers back to work — not just those that were already on existing projects who were threatened to be laid off, but also getting some new projects done that are vitally important to communities all across the nation and that will improve our economy,” Obama said after signing the bill. “(We also need to make) sure that now that we’ve prevented a doubling of student loan rates, we actually start doing more to reduce the debt burden that our young people are experiencing.”

• Ed Keith to focus on coordinating fire prevention efforts

By Erik Hidle The Bulletin

Deschutes County has named Ed Keith as its new county forester.

Keith, 39, of Sweet Home, replaces Joe Stutler, who retired last week after eight years on the job.

The county forester serves as a liaison between federal, state and local agencies to both manage forests and prevent fires.

His role focused on man- Keith agement of operations for a 450,000-acre area.

Before that, Keith worked as a forester for the state in Prineville and Tillamook. He is from Nevada and has a bachelor’s degree in forest management from Utah State University.

“You are trying to work with communities to make them fire-safe and fireresistant. There is a big component to it that is working with individuals, and also with working with different agencies. The goal is to coordinate what we have as shared goals. Fire sure doesn’t care about boundaries, so the forester’s role is to work across the boundaries as well.”

the dry type of forests,” Keith said. “So Central Oregon is kind of right up my alley. A big part of the draw for me is being in an area with a fire adaptivetype forest.”

County Commissioner Tammy Baney said the forester role is a critical position because it reduces the threat of fire and protects outdoor amenities.

“Like it or not, we have an economy based on recreation,” Baney said. “It’s tough to enjoy golfing or fly fishing when the air quality is low and the freeways are closed down due to a fire.”

Purse for the Fourth reaches $928 Thanks to the hard work done by Clyde McKay and John Elkins, of the finance committee, and the generosity of the Bend people who want to see the town have a fine celebration, $928 has been subscribed for the Fourth of July funds, and practically all of this has been collected.

Besides their cash contribution, The Bend Company is giving free electric current and contributes the labor at cost for the erection and installation of the lighting.

or the past 38 summers, the Central Oregon Saturday Market has

drawn visitors to downtown Bend with handmade candles and more.

Beyond their largely locally made wares, several of the vendors have interesting stories to tell of how they learned their craft, and how they came to spend their summers at the Saturday Market.

• Astoria

Steve Dahm, the self-titled “LowBudget Luthier,” sat in the shade Saturday picking out a tune on a stubby

guitar he built from a cigar box.

A retired artist and engineer as well as a longtime musician, Dahm started building guitars of his own about five years ago.

“They’re a traditional instrument that found popularity during the Depression,” Dahm said. “Some of your blues greats — Howling Wolf, B.B.

King — learned to play on simple, homemade instruments.”

Small wooden boxes were an innovation in cigar packaging during the Depression, Dahm said, and somebody soon figured out that the boxes could produce a clean, resonating sound.

Yesterday at noon occurred the wedding of Miss Maude Vandevert and Chester Catlow, at the W.P. Vandevert home on Little River, some 25 miles south of Bend.

Rev. H.O. Perry of the Methodist church performed the ceremony. Millie Vandevert, oldest sister of the bride, was maid of honor, while Misses Ione and Viola Fisher, Iva West and Grace Vandevert acted as bridesmaids.

The maid of honor wore pink and the bridesmaids blue.

Will Vandevert was best man. Before the ceremony, Miss Marion Wiest sang, accompanied by Miss Eva Graves, who also played the wedding march, that from “Midsummer Night’s Dream.”

Market Continued from B1 By adding necks made of broom handles or scrap wood and strings often pilfered from screen doors, the first cigar box guitars were born.

While Dahm’s guitars feature factory-made guitar strings and an internal electric pickup, they’re not far off from their Depression-era cousins, with just three strings and a fretless neck, and a length of rope for a strap.

Typically played with a glass or metal slide, the guitars are easier to learn than a conventional guitar, Dahm said, but he’s made more complicated instruments by request — one local doctor is the proud owner of a six-string model, custom-built around a metal bedpan complete with an outhouse-shaped case.

A young entrepreneur Amanda Woods is the only vendor at the Saturday Market who had a market booth before she could legally hold a job. An incoming freshman at Summit High School, 14-year-old Amanda is in her second year selling hair pins decorated with handmade silk flowers at the market.

A few years back, she spotted some similar hair pins at a local store and concluded she could make her own at a better price. Classmates saw her wearing her creations at school, and she was soon filling custom orders for her friends. Last summer, she secured her own booth at the Saturday Market.

“It really hasn’t been that much (work),” she said. “I really just enjoy making them.”

Grandmother Judy Clark, staffing the booth with Amanda on Saturday, said she’s continually impressed with her granddaughter’s ambition. Beyond running her business, Amanda is a talented flutist and maintains

Working with rocks A rockhound since childhood, “Wild Bill” Irvin taught himself flintnapping as a way of finding something to do with his multi-ton collection of obsidian, opals and other stones that had began crowding out the backyard of his Terrebonne home.

Irvin soon began chipping arrowheads, spear points and knives, fitting them into handcrafted bone or wood handles. A fixture at the market in recent years, he’s since expanded into jewelry, and is learning silversmithing to turn small slabs of polished stone into pendants.

At a knife show in April, Irvin cracked open a door to a new outlet for his craft. A movie producer approached him about making props for an upcoming film, and while Irvin is still thin on details — Gene Hackman is involved somehow, it’s a Western of some kind, and it could be two to three years before it’s seen in theaters — he’s committed to doing the work and eager to get started.

“It’s gonna be neat to see the movie and see my name way down there in the credits,” he said. “‘Here it comes, get ready to pause it!’”

Miss Earhart’s plane down in South Seas The calm radio voices of Amelia Earhart and Fred Noonan, reported heard in Los Angeles calling from their lost plane in the south Pacific, spurred hope today that they were safe and gave impetus to a far-flung search by sea and air.

Two United States warships were speeding to Howland.

Eleven additional Navy planes were standing by at Pearl Harbor ready to depart at a moment’s notice.

Miss Earhart’s husband, George Putnam, maintaining a ceaseless vigil at Oakland airport, was not convinced, however, that the voices were those of either Miss Earhart or Noonan, her navigator.

He also was not certain that the plane has actually sent out earlier dot and dash signals reportedly picked up by Coast Guard stations, by the British warship Achilles and the freighter New Zealand.

“I would be tremendously cheered if these reports were true,” he said, “but the plane is obviously down somewhere, and being down, I am afraid its radio would be out of commission.”

Putnam said, however, it was possible the plane had landed on an island with fuel left and that Miss Earhart and Noonan were running one of its two motors at stated intervals to operate the radio and send out signals.

Kenneth Bartell, radio amateur of Huntington Park, near Los Angeles, said he got signals from KHAQQ, the call letters of Miss Earhart’s plane, at 8:55 a.m. PST. The signals came in a man’s voice, Bartell said, leading him to believe

it was the voice of Captain Noonan.

Water pageant to be presented on Monday Bend’s annual water pageant, to be presented this year on a more impressive and costly scale than ever before attempted, will start Monday evening at deep dusk, as the first of 18 gaily decorated floats, a number of them symbolic of Independence Day, emerges from the huge Mirror Lake arch. Illumination this year will play a very important part in the river fete, the committee reports. Not only will the floats be individually lighted, through a trolley contact, but the great arch will be illuminated and subdued lights will be reflected in the calm river.

5 0 YEARS AGO For the week ending July 7, 1962

Sullivan never dreamed of park status for “Rock” Young Yank Sullivan, riding north on a spring day in the ’70s of the past century, saw outlined against the low foothills a strange formation.

To the young stockman, who came to Lake County in 1873, it looked like a giant corral, with its gate wide open.

As Sullivan drew closer, he noted that the rocky amphitheater, with a rim 300 feet high in places, looked more like a fort than a corral. So he called the formation Fort Rock, and rode out over the plain that was once the bottom of a huge lake.

Sullivan apparently was impressed by Fort Rock, and he told his friends about the landmark. Others visiting the basin noticed the similarity of the rock to a fort. In time, a legend of a fierce battle between Indians and Whites at Fort Rock was passed on from ranch to ranch, and was heard by visitors.

Because of that legend, Fort Rock became a landmark that was of interest to many. But a far more intriguing story, based on scientific study, not on legend, was to attach itself to Fort Rock. Now, as a result, Fort Rock is one of the most in-

teresting geologic formations in the northern Great Basin.

Earth savants say that long ago, possibly while the basin still cradled a big lake, the Fort Rock site was the scene of a violent volcanic eruption, Tuff hurled from a central vent built up a ring around the spouting crater.

This ring remains as Fort Rock.

Recently, the volcanic tuff ring, which once loomed over an isle-dotted lake like a giant floating horseshoe, was designated as Fort Rock State Park.

This was made possible by the gift to the state of a 160 acre tract by Mr. and Mrs. Reuben A. Long.

Already the State Parks Division has started development of the basic park facilities just south of the formation.

Grading of a parking area will be completed this summer. A well is to be drilled to bring water to the park. Planting in the area will follow.

William “Yank” Sullivan, riding north to the timbered foothills of the Paulinas, never dreamed of such a development.

Pet parade set for July 28th Scores of Bend children appear to be downright put out: Apparently some have been preparing for a pet parade, similar to those held through the years here, generally in connection with the Fourth of July Mirror Pond Pageant.

But there will be no parade tomorrow.

This year’s parade of pets will be held on Saturday, July 28, in connection with the pageant, being held on a new date this year.

2 5 YEARS AGO For the week ending July 7, 1987

This is my country John D. Eberhard stepped off a train in Portland with 95 cents in his pocket and speak-

ing no English. His first job in America paid $60 a month, five times what he was making in his native Switzerland.

Today, Eberhard and his sons run Eberhard’s Dairy Products in Redmond and employ 36 people.

Independence Day means something special to Eberhard. He’s sure he wouldn’t have prospered as he has if he’d stayed in Switzerland. It is the land of unlimited opportunity, he said.

The Fourth of July — it’s the celebration of the signing of a more than 200-year-old document that gave birth to the country. Today for most Americans, its chief significance is a day off work and a fireworks display.

But the Fourth of July means much more for people who remember a different reality.

Eberhard is proud of his opportunities in America. He erects a flag on one of the milk silos at his plant every Fourth of July. He also writes patriotic poetry.

“The reason I put that flag up is I want everyone to know I’m proud to be an American,” said Eberhard. “Sure I’m proud of my Swiss heritage, but I’m even more proud of my American citizenship.”

After a monthlong journey on a boat coming from Europe, Eberhard remembers passing the Statue of Liberty in New York harbor.

“I’ll tell you right now when we saw the statue, all those people on that huge ship, we saw that and there wasn’t a dry eye on the ship.”

Eberhard also remembers the day he received his American citizenship in 1941.

He remembers the name of the Wasco County judge who administered the citizenship ceremony, and what the judge said.

“Be good to your adopted country and your country will be good to you,” recalled Eberhard.

The flags and poems are part of his thank you.

Forester Continued from B1 The forester heads education programs and assists local landowners in keeping their properties fire-resistant.

“That’s a big deal,” Baney said. “And the forester isn’t just for outreach and education, but also to bring in millions in grant money to help us do that work. You won’t find many counties in Oregon, or the United States, that have a forester on staff, but we have found it is very valuable to utilize the position and education that comes with it.”

Keith said a secondary concern in the Central Oregon region is management of insects and diseases that affect thriving forests.

While the move back to the High Desert from the Valley is likely to come with a learning curve, Keith said he hopes his years in Prineville will help him acclimate quickly.

“I feel like I haven’t been gone all that long, so hopefully I can get right back in the loop,” he said.

Keith’s first official day as county forester is July 16.

O N Astoria takes control of mysterious mansion • ‘We always wondered what was behind that door’: Historic home has a colorful history The Associated Press ASTORIA — The city of Astoria has taken control of a 111-year-old mansion whose history traces the rise of a family prominent in the city’s maritime and banking enterprises and the family’s eventual decline.

The last occupant known to be alive, Mary Louise Flavel, hasn’t been heard from recently, say city officials. They don’t know whether she’s alive, although they say they can’t find evidence that she has died.

A week ago, after invoking a derelict building ordinance passed a year ago, city officials toured the house, the Daily Astorian reported.

They found it crammed from top to bottom with newspapers and magazines from the last century in layers three feet thick, among other items that included a 1950s-era woman’s swimsuit hanging in an all-pink bathroom, an IRS notice about unpaid taxes for 1979, and what appeared to be the remains of a dog in a refrigerator.

It was the community’s first hard information about a local landmark that has long been a source of mystery.

“I grew up in the neighborhood, and Harry was kind of like our Boo Radley from ‘To Kill A Mockingbird,’” said City Council member Karen Mellin.

“We always wondered what was behind that door.”

“Harry” was Harry S. Flavel, last in a line of prominent Astorians whose history and escapades gained national attention when Calvin Trillin wrote an article about the family for the New Yorker in 1993.

The home was built in 1901

by Capt. George Flavel, son of the first bar pilot of the Columbia River. Bar pilots perform the risky work of guiding oceangoing vessels over the mouth of the Columbia River, long known as a graveyard for ships.

George Flavel’s son, Harry M. Flavel, inherited the mansion and took over his father’s position as president of the bank. Harry M. Flavel’s second wife was a school teacher named Florence Sherman. The couple had a son and a daughter, Harry Sherman Flavel and Mary Louise Flavel. Harry M. Flavel died in 1951.

Harry S. Flavel was sometimes known as “Hatchet Harry” for a fit of teenage rage in which he was said to have “chopped the banister to bits with a hatchet,” according to Astoria Fire and Rescue Lt. Bob Johnson. Johnson said his father was a doctor who sometimes made house calls to the Flavel home.

Alex Pajunas / The Daily Astorian

The brother and sister never wed or had children. They lived in the home with their mother, Florence, until they fled in 1990.

That was a result of an incident in 1983, when Harry Flavel was accused of attacking a man. He hit the man’s car with a dog chain, saying it was going too fast. The driver tracked Flavel to a dark walkway and demanded to know his name.

Flavel stabbed him.

Police and the district attorney at the time, Steven Gerttula, stood on the front porch of the Flavel home while the Flavels talked to the city manager on the telephone. They never let police in. But a few days later, Harry S. Flavel surrendered to the police. He pleaded not guilty and was found guilty of assault but acquitted of attempted murder.

The assault charge could have carried a 20-year sentence.

He was given probation and launched appeals, which were exhausted in 1990 — which would have meant jail time for a man in his 60s.

Mellin, the council member, said her mother lived across the street from the mansion and watched the family leave: “She saw them pile into the car — Mary, Harry and their 90year-old mother, and a couple of dogs.”

In October 1990, Harry was arrested in Pennsylvania for stealing hotel towels but fled.

In 1991, a maintenance man

told the FBI the Flavels had a temporary residence in Massachusetts, and Flavel was sent to jail in Astoria. He served more than a year, was released and disappeared.

Local historian John Goodenberger wrote that he returned to Massachusetts.

The mother died soon after his release from jail, after a two-year stint on life support.

The siblings returned to Oregon, Goodenberger wrote, and no one knew it. Harry S. Flavel died in 2010.

As for Mary Louise Flavel, city officials say they’re at a loss.

Since the derelict building law went into effect, the city has issued several citations to her and her last known attorney, who told the city he no longer represents her and doesn’t know if she’s alive.

So, the city says, it will now wait for her or an attorney for her to make a claim on the building.

The house itself can be salvaged, city officials said after the tour. It needs a lot of work, but it’s structurally sound.

Workers will cover the roof with tarp and the windows with boards. Vegetation outside that creates a fire hazard is being cleared.

The city will file a lien on the home and preserve the contents for whoever steps forward to take control of the home, even if that someone is Mary Louise Flavel.

OHSU seeks deal with workers to reduce PERS contributions The Associated Press PORTLAND — Oregon Health & Science University is seeking to stop paying a 6 percent retirement contribution it makes for more than 5,000 employees.

The proposal was part of an offer the Portland hospital and public university made this week in collective bargaining with unions, The Oregonian newspaper reported.

Roughly 70 percent of Public Employees Retirement System members statewide have their required contribution paid by their employer. The “pickup,” as it’s commonly known, was substituted for pay raises in the past, and has become standard in collective bargaining agreements.

But the cost of funding worker retirement benefits is

Pendleton blaze burns apartments

Mistreatment of cat leads to rape arrest

PENDLETON — A brush fire destroyed two Pendleton apartment buildings Saturday afternoon, leaving dozens of people homeless.

Apartment manager Terry Prock said 48 apartments were destroyed or heavily damaged, but all the tenants escaped unharmed.

The American Red Cross set up shelter at the Pendleton Convention Center and planned to provide displaced residents with food, lodging, clothing, comfort kits, and health and mental health services.

The blaze started just after 3 p.m., apparently in a field behind the two apartment buildings. Crews had the blaze extinguished before 6 p.m. Pendleton firefighters were joined by those from Pilot Rock, Stanfield, Hermiston and the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation.

ASHLAND — Ashland police looking to arrest a rape suspect found their man when people called to complain about his bizarre behavior at the city’s Fourth of July parade.

The Ashland Daily Tidings reports that police had a warrant for the arrest of 47year-old Wesley Hoseclaw.

They located the homeless man Wednesday after getting calls about a man swinging a cat that was trapped in a net above his head.

The rape charges stem from an incident that occurred in June, when a woman says she was attacked after allowing Hoseclaw to stay the night.

Hoseclaw pleaded not guilty to rape and numerous other charges. He remains lodged in the Jackson County Jail on more than $1 million bail.

Police say the cat was not injured.

Woman dies on I-84 in wrong-way crash Medford man pleads not guilty in thefts PORTLAND — Oregon

Astoria community development director Brett Estes, front, carefully makes his way down the decaying front steps of the Flavel family home ahead of Police Chief Peter Curzon, left, and building inspector Jack Applegate. The city of Astoria has taken over the derelict mansion.

reaching crisis levels for many public employers in Oregon, and OHSU President Joe Robertson said it’s important for the university to take this step to control expenses. Eliminating the pickup in 2013 would save $20 million and hold the university’s annual PERS costs constant at about $50 million.

“Being good stewards of our resources means figuring out a way to address the unsustainability of PERS,” Robertson told employees in a newsletter this week.

He said the proposal is only one element of a compensation and retirement package that would remain better than average.

Frank Vehafric, a representative for OHSU members of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal

Employees, said the PERS cost problem is cyclical in nature, and costs will eventually be reduced via better investment returns or the retirement of older employees.

Dropping the pickup would be a “very serious financial blow to our members,” Vehafric said. “It was part of the deal a long time ago to swap pay increases for the pickup. There’s no part of this offer to make employees whole for that trade.”

PERS finished 2011 with $54.7 billion in assets. That amount covers 73 percent of its liabilities, down from 78 percent at the end of the previous year due to poor investment returns. Employer contributions doubled last July, taking $1.1 billion from public budgets already punctured by the recession.

State Police are investigating a fatal crash on Interstate 84 east of Corbett that involved a motorist driving the wrong way.

Lt. Gregg Hastings says a 2007 Kia Rio was traveling westbound in the eastbound lanes late Friday when it collided with a pickup driven by 53-year-old James Schneider, of White Salmon, Wash.

The woman driving the Kia died at the scene. She has been identified as 36-yearold Erika Myers, of Portland.

Schneider was taken to a Portland hospital with serious injuries.

Hastings says at least one driver complained about a wrong-way vehicle just before the crash.

MEDFORD — A Medford man has pleaded not guilty to charges he transported stolen property to a neighboring county, where it was sold on the black market.

Jeremy Crandall is accused of aggravated theft, burglary, unlawful use of a motor vehicle and drug charges.

Medford police Lt. Mike Budreau told the Mail Tribune newspaper that investigators recently raided the Wolf Creek home of 34-year-old Sky Shipman and found expensive items that had been stolen from cities throughout southern Oregon.

The investigation revealed that Crandall was Shipman’s

partner, working out of Jackson County to move stolen items to Josephine County.

Budreau said the pair believed they were safe from police because budget problems led to big cuts at the Josephine County Sheriff’s Department.

Rents rise, vacancies fall in Portland PORTLAND — Finding an apartment in Portland is no easy task. Real estate data firm Reis Inc. reports that the metro-area vacancy rate fell to 2.2 percent from April to June, allowing Portland to retain its rank as the second-tightest apartment market in the country behind New York.

Meanwhile, the Census Bureau put Portland’s rental vacancy rate at 4.2 percent in the first quarter of 2012, still the second-tightest market surveyed.

Reis reported a 5 percent increase in Portland-area rental rates over the past year, reaching an average of $831 a month. Only San Francisco had a greater percentage increase.

The Oregonian reports that some help is on the way.

Aware of the demand, developers have received permits for 2,514 apartments in more than 100 buildings.

Dr. Gabriel Nahas, left, with first lady Nancy Reagan in the early 1980s. Nahas, a leading opponent of marijuana use since 1969, died June 28 at age 92.

Medical researcher Nahas was an anti-marijuana crusader

By Douglas Martin New York Times News Service

Dr. Gabriel Nahas, a controversial medical researcher who became a prominent crusader against marijuana after being shocked to hear, at a PTA meeting in 1969, about the drug’s widespread use, died June 28 in Manhattan. He was 92.

The cause was a respiratory infection, his family said.

Nahas did research to find the physiological effects of smoking marijuana, wrote 10 books on the drug and became a leader of anti-drug organizations. He was a visible ally of Nancy Reagan in her “just say no� to drugs campaign as the first lady in the 1980s.

Nahas saw his anti-drug campaign as nothing less than a continuation of the fight against totalitarianism, which for him began during World War II as a decorated leader of the French Resistance; like totalitarianism, he believed, drugs enslaved the mind. He was awarded the Legion of Honor by France, the Presidential Medal of Freedom by the U.S. and the Order of the British Empire for his wartime heroism.

His research, which he did as a professor at Columbia University and reported in more than 700 articles in scientific journals, suggested that marijuana contributed to cancers of the head and neck, leukemia, infertility, brain damage and a weakening of the immune sys-

Reverend Dr. John Edward Maybury September 10, 1922 - June 25, 2012 Reverend Dr. John Edward Maybury, born September 10, 1922 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, passed away on Monday June 25, 2012 peacefully surrounded by his loving family. He is survived by his four blessed children: Patricia Gail Eckhardt, Suzanne Carol Lee, Stephen John Maybury, and Kim Ann Marie Nicholson -- who greatly loved him and will miss him.

He was grandfather to twelve delightful grandchildren and one great-grandchild. They all loved him for his laughter, special stories and the prayers and encouragement he offered to help bless and grow their lives.

Rev. Dr. Maybury had a wide range of experiences in and out of the church and ministered for almost 60 years in various pastoral and lay settings. For 30+ years, he served as a pastor in the Church of the Nazarene across the U.S. He had been a chaplain in hospitals and the Civil Air Patrol and served as President and Director of the International Institute in Orange County, California where he helped thousands of refugees from Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laotian Hmong resettle in the United States.

He taught at the California Christian Institute in the field of psychology and provided counseling services in a private practice.

Rev. Dr. Maybury authored a number of magazine articles and books, including “Knowing and Living the Fruit of the Spirit�, “The Celibate Priest and His Secretary�, “Silver Years Among the Gold� and a booklet entitled “Burnout and The Bible�. He also authored several books that featured his original poetry. He held four degrees in Bible and Theology and Church History and a M.A. and PhD. in Psychology with special training through APCE as a hospital Chaplain. He was married for 65 years to his beloved wife, Thelma Cody Maybury, who faithfully ministered with him, and who passed away July 29, 2011.

Rev. Dr. and Mrs. Maybury resided in Bend for 23 years and greatly enjoyed their friendships and love of the area. Both will be deeply missed by all who knew them.

A memorial service is scheduled at the Culver, Oregon Church of the Nazarene, 600 W. 3rd and E Street on Sunday July 22, 2012 at 2:30pm to honor his memory. For those who wish, the family has suggested a donation to the Nazarene Missions either through their local Nazarene Church or c/o Pastor Martin Heesacker, P.O. Box 57, Culver, OR 97734-0057.

FEATURED OBITUARY tem. He also wrote two books on cocaine, which he contended could cause irreversible brain damage.

Nahas became known as much for his advocacy as for his science. He was the chairman of the scientific advisory committee of the National Federation of Parents for DrugFree Youth, now the National Family Partnership. He was a consultant to the U.N. Commission on Narcotics in the 1980s and ’90s. In 1985, he appeared at an anti-drug rally with Reagan and the actor William Shatner, who was in costume as his best-known character, Captain Kirk of “Star Trek.�

Nahas testified frequently at

government hearings.

His critics in the scientific community sometimes assailed his methodology, questioning the large judgments he made often based on small samples. Organizations promoting the decriminalization or legalization of marijuana painted him as a villain. The New England Journal of Medicine once described his work as “psychopharmacological McCarthyism that compels him to use half-truths, innuendo and unverifiable assertions.�

But Robert DuPont, drug czar in the Nixon and Ford administrations, called Nahas “the Paul Revere of drug abuse,� saying, “He alone lit the beacon warning of the threat of the modern drug abuse epidemic.�

Doris Allen Jeans

JANUARY 30, 1920 - JUNE 29, 2012 Doris Allen Jeans, a retired registered nurse, and beloved mother, grandmother and greatgrandmother, died in Lewiston, Idaho, on Friday, June 29, 2012. She was 92.

She was born January 30, 1920, at St. Charles Hospital in Bend, Oregon, to Wilbur and Elsie Price Allen. It was reported that Bend was covered with six feet of snow the winter of 1920; and it was so cold that the Sister took Doris and another newborn to bed with her to keep them warm. Upon discharge from the hospital, the Allen family returned to a three bedroom house on Columbia Street where Elsie kept Doris warm by a potbellied stove in the living room, or a wood range in the kitchen. Light was provided by kerosene lanterns; and both drinking and bathing water was obtained from the river.

Doris and a younger brother grew and thrived in Bend. When not attending school they enjoyed ice skating, and skiing on homemade skis. Summer provided hiking, swimming and other family outings in the family Model T Ford. She was also instructed in music. However, Doris and the family dog both suffered through violin lessons until allowed to trade the violin for a bugle. She marched in the Rose Bowl Parade with her high school Drum and Bugle Corp. She graduated from Bend High School in 1938; and graduated from the Deaconess School of Nursing in Spokane, Washington as a registered nurse in 1941.

She met Earl C. Jeans at a dance. She saw him across the floor wearing a black letterman sweater with a big orange T for Thurston; and she thought he was the most handsome man alive. They were married during a 3 hour pass in Aberdeen, Washington, February 13, 1942. Earl was deployed to fight in the South Pacific during WWII when their only child, Susan was born. After Earl was discharged in 1946, Doris, Earl and their daughter eventually settled in Springfield, Oregon. Earl was self-employed as a fishing guide on the McKenzie, Rogue, Middle Fork of the Salmon in Idaho, and rivers of the Olympic Peninsula in Washington. He also skippered a charter boat out of La Push, Washington. Doris pursued her career in nursing.

Doris began nursing when antibiotics were not available for hospitals and blood was not typed. She started as a hospital nurse, spent some time as a school nurse, and spent most of her career as an industrial nurse. Places of employment during her career included: Salem Deaconess Hospital, St. Charles Hospital in Bend, Oregon, Oregon College of Education, in Monmouth, Weyerhaeuser Plant in Springfield, Oregon where she worked as an Industrial Nurse for 20 years. She also worked as an industrial nurse at Shell Oil Refinery in Anacortes, Washington for 5 years before moving back to Springfield.

In addition to nursing, she enjoyed painting, and was a member of the McKenzie Artists Guild. Other activities included reading, travel and supporting the U of O Ducks. She particularly enjoyed the good neighbors on 49th Loop in Springfield, and the nieces and nephews who were always there for them.

Earl’s declining health prompted a move in 2006 to join her daughter and Dennis Diaz in Lewiston, Idaho. Doris was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Earl Jeans in 2007, shortly after their 65th wedding anniversary.

She is survived by: her daughter, Susan Jeans Church and Dennis Diaz; grandson, Jay Church and his wife, Rachael, and children, John Allen and Chelsea Church of Boise, Idaho; grandson, Dan Church of Boulder, Colorado; brother and sister-in-law, Don and Bonnie Allen of Eugene, Oregon; and many nieces and nephews who were a special part of her family.

The memorial service will be conducted Friday, July 13, 2012, at 10:00 a.m., at Springfield Memorial Garden in Oregon.

‘Rodeo was always his buddy’ • A boy and his dog forge a bond that lasts for 15 years, with a little help along the way

By Jayson Jacoby The Baker City Herald

T

he boy wanted a friend.

It would perhaps not be overstating things to say that this boy, at this moment, needed a friend.

And it was then that he met the dog.

This boy and this dog were best friends for the next 15 years.

When you hear the story of how their friendship came to be, you could maybe believe that it was fate, or else something so close as to not matter.

But whether you concede the concept of destiny, or you ascribe such things to plain dumb chance, you’ll see that this pair, the boy and the dog, were made for each other as much as separate beings can be.

This bond, as it inevitably does in such cases, ended long before the boy was ready.

Boys, of course, grow into men.

But dogs, well, dogs just grow old.

This boy, Kit Haberman, was at the time 11.

It is an awkward age anyway, skirting as it does the precipice of adolescence.

That’s a crumbly piece of ground — treacherous, really, and capable of bringing down even the sure-footed in a painful fall.

But Kit struggled more than most of his peers to make, and more important to keep, friends.

“I didn’t have many,” he said in a telephone interview this week, now a man of 27.

And so Rodeo could hardly have come along at a better time.

He didn’t come with the name. Or with any pedigree, for that matter.

In fact, the way in which the boy and the dog found each other seems more the realm of fiction than of reality.

A fateful Fourth It happened on Independence Day. The year was 1996 and Kit and his mother, Gayle Laird, who then, as now, lived in Portland, were visiting relatives at Rock Creek in Baker Valley.

They went to the Haines Stampede rodeo.

The festivities that year included what Gayle describes as an “animal scramble” — an event in which kids were allowed to go out into the arena and try to catch a dog or a chicken or a rabbit or whatever else was careening around the dusty ground.

What the kids caught, they kept.

Kit, unbeknownst to his mom, rushed into the melee.

Gayle and her husband, who died of heart disease when Kit was 3, had adopted him as a newborn.

He suffered from fetal alcohol syndrome and attention deficit disorder.

“He was very spontaneous, and still is,” Gayle said of her son. “As a kid, whatever came into his head, he’d do it.”

The animal scramble organizers had strung a rope across the arena entrance as a height guide — kids who could walk beneath the rope without doing the limbo were allowed in.

Although Kit, at 11, was likely older than most of the kids who participated, he was, his mom said, always small for his age.

The way he remembers it, “I was one of the last kids in there — I barely fit under the rope.”

When Kit walked into this menagerie, about the first thing that happened was he stepped in a couple of cow pies.

But then he saw the little white dog with dark spots.

After that he saw nothing else.

“It took me probably a minute and a half to catch him,” Kit said.

A few minutes later he ran up to his mom, clutching the frightened puppy.

“My mom said something like, ‘Where did you get that?’ ’’ Kit remembers. “I think I said something to the effect of ‘Can I keep him?’ But what kid doesn’t say that?”

Gayle, though she had not even considered adding a pet

to her family, recognized in her son’s eyes a level of desire that she simply couldn’t deny.

Besides which, she said, “I love animals.”

The dog was of no particular breed. Gayle pegged him for a cross between a Dalmatian and an Australian shepherd.

Kit didn’t care about breeds.

He had his buddy.

“Love at first sight,” Gayle wrote in a column published in The Oregonian in 1996.

Of course they named him Rodeo right then and there.

The boy and his dog went back to their home in Portland.

Medical problems ...

About a month later, Gayle noticed that Rodeo walked with a limp.

A veterinarian told her that Rodeo had suffered an injury to his right front leg, probably soon after birth. The growth plate was damaged.

The options, the vet said, were amputation, an expensive surgery or euthanasia.

Gayle, a single mother who worked at the Portland school her son attended, didn’t know what to do.

The last of the three options wasn’t conceivable, certainly.

She remembered too well that look in her son’s eye back at the rodeo grounds.

But she couldn’t afford surgery.

One day in early November 1996, Kit was sick and had to stay home from school.

Gayle, wanting to stay with her son, first had to drive to the school to leave a lesson plan for her substitute.

She brought along Rodeo.

“The kids gathered around the dog and had a ton of questions about his leg and why he limped,” Gayle wrote in a recent letter to the Baker City Herald. “I mentioned that he needed a surgery that we couldn’t afford, but we were looking into possibly having the leg amputated when it got too bad.”

Gayle drove home and took care of her son.

And Rodeo.

... are solved Later that week, with Kit feeling better and back at school, Gayle noticed signs at the school that read “Come to the bake sale and help a friend.”

Then Kit came home and asked her if she could bake cookies for the sale.

It was for some Christmas project, he told her.

Not long after, the school’s principal told Gayle what was really going on.

Kit’s classmates planned the bake sale. They wanted to help pay for Rodeo’s surgery, to save his leg and, maybe, his life.

Gayle didn’t know what to say.

Except “yes.” And “thank you.”

She spoke with a veterinarian from Baker City (she doesn’t recall his name) who helped her arrange to have Rodeo’s surgery performed at the Veterinary School at Washington State University in Pullman.

The cost was half the earlier estimate — $2,000.

Still too much, really.

But Gayle decided to put the bill on her credit card and never mind the interest.

Rodeo’s operation was scheduled for December 1996, the week before Christmas break. Gayle needed to pay half the bill before the surgery.

On a Friday, the day they left for Pullman, Gayle picked up Kit at school. His class had had three bake sales. One of the students handed Gayle a check. The amount was slightly more than $1,000.

“I was astounded,” she wrote in her letter to the Herald.

Kit remembers that day, too.

“I had helped out with the bake sales — I just didn’t know what they were for,” he said.

A week later, after the 17hour ordeal of driving through a Columbia Gorge ice storm, Gayle, Kit and Rodeo returned to Portland.

When school resumed in January, Kit’s class presented her with a second check. Now she had only to pay the balance on the $2,000 surgery.

Courtesy Gayle Laird

Kit Haberman, left, with his mom, Gayle Laird, and Rodeo the dog in early 1997, just after Rodeo underwent surgery to stabilize his right front leg.

It came to what, by then, seemed the paltry sum of $88.12.

Gayle told her brother the story of Rodeo and the bake sales.

He wrote her a check for $88.12.

“It was an incredible outpouring of love for a young, emotionally struggling young boy and his mom,” Gayle wrote in her letter to the Herald.

“I have thanked the people of his school over and over for their generosity.”

‘He was there for me’ And so the boy and his dog were together.

Every year they came back to Baker Valley, usually for the Fourth of July and Thanksgiving.

They stayed with Kit’s aunt and uncle, Arlene and Joe Dethloff (Joe died on Oct. 18, 2002).

Although the surgery had left Rodeo’s leg straight as a ramrod, so that he sort of skipped when he ran, whenever they returned to Baker, Gayle wrote, “Rodeo would romp around with the other dogs, forgetting he had hardware in his elbow. He loved going home.”

Where home actually was, Gayle never learned.

Arlene had her suspicions about which family had brought the mongrel puppy to the Haines Stampede arena on that Fourth of July, but nothing concrete.

It didn’t matter anyway.

Certainly it didn’t matter to Kit. For him, Rodeo’s friendship, so rare and thus so precious,

was the true thing.

It’s not that Kit was a sullen child, Gayle said.

He loved babies. He was intelligent and well-spoken.

His fault, if that is even the proper word, is that he was perhaps more self-centered than most of his peers, Gayle said. Not selfish, exactly. But immature.

Whatever the reason, Kit never fit in with his classmates in quite the way almost all children yearn to do.

Yet the emptiness that Kit’s social struggles created was filled, with unerring canine constancy, by Rodeo.

“He was there for me when I was basically all by my lonesome in the friends department,” Kit said. “He was there whenever I needed him.

“We did everything together.

We went for walks — lopsided runs in his case. Sometimes he got out and got into mischief.

What dog doesn’t?”

The way Gayle remembers it, Rodeo was the one friend — besides his mother, but that’s an altogether different relationship — that Kit never had to wonder about.

“It’s that unconditional love that a dog can give,” Gayle said. “Dogs just have a way.

Rodeo was always his buddy.”

Saying goodbye Last fall Gayle noticed that Rodeo, who lived with Kit in his Portland apartment, looked a trifle thin.

He was never a big dog, to be sure — maybe 50 pounds in his prime, including the steel hardware the vets put in to stabilize his leg.

That long-ago surgery at

Pullman saved Rodeo’s leg, but no vet could completely heal whatever had happened to the pup.

He suffered increasingly from arthritis. Not an uncommon affliction in elderly dogs, of course, but Gayle figures Rodeo’s case was exacerbated because he had to compensate for his damaged leg by putting extra stress on his three other limbs.

She and Kit switched Rodeo’s food.

But he continued to shed weight.

One day he was down to 19 pounds.

Mother and son had a decision to make.

Compared to Gayle’s decision about Rodeo’s surgery in 1996, this one was both easier, and immeasurably more difficult.

They went together to the vet’s office, the mom and the dog and the boy, only now he was a man.

“That was hard,” Kit said. “I would have loved to be able to afford to spend thousands of dollars trying to find out what was wrong with him. He might have lived to be 20.

“But I knew eventually, that in some way or another I’d see him again. And I’ll always have wonderful memories of him.”

“They let us be in a room alone with Rodeo,” Gayle said.

“He kind of died in both our arms.”

Coming home And now Rodeo is coming home.

For the last time.

It was Kit’s idea, Gayle said, both to have Rodeo cremated and then to bring his ashes back to Baker Valley.

She was most pleased by this, saw it, in fact, as evidence of how much her son has matured over the past 16 years.

“I felt it was kind of a fitting closure for a canine life well-lived and well-loved,” Gayle wrote in her letter to the Herald.

She intended the letter to serve as a public thank you.

“There are a lot of difficult kids out there who need love, and because we received some unexpected love from Baker County when my son needed it, we wanted to pass it forward,” Gayle wrote.

Kit expects to arrive in Baker County, by bus, early Tuesday.

He plans to distribute Rodeo’s ashes in three places: his aunt’s place at Rock Creek, a lake in the Elkhorns, and, naturally, at the rodeo grounds.

Rodeo, quite literally, will rejoin his native soil.

And so a drift of ash will briefly mark the end of a story that began, in a distant summer, inside what must have been a similar spray of gritty dust, where a boy’s fingers first felt the soft flanks of his best friend.

Timber companies join state to defend logging The Associated Press EUGENE — A federal judge has granted a request by several logging industry firms to join Gov. John Kitzhaber and other state officials in defending Oregon’s plan to allow more logging in Coast Range forests.

The lawsuit filed by three environmental groups — Cascadia Wildlands, the Center for Biological Diversity and the Audubon Society of Portland — claims the state’s logging goals in the coastal Elliott, Tillamook and Clatsop state forests illegally harm the habitat of the threatened marbled murrelet, which is protected under the Endangered Species Act. The seabird lays its eggs on the large, mossy branches of mature and oldgrowth trees.

State officials have said they have a forest management plan to protect the seabird. However, they have voluntarily suspended logging on 10 timber sales until District Judge Ann Aiken rules on the environmentalists’ motion for an injunction.

The state protection plan includes designated buffer zones of protected forest where murrelet activity is detected and curtailed logging schedules during the April-to-September nesting period.

The industry groups expected to help defend the state’s forest policy include the Oregon Forest Industries Council, Douglas Timber Operators, Scott Timber Co. Inc. of Coquille, Hampton Tree Farms Inc. of Salem and Seneca Sawmill Co. of Eugene, The Register-Guard newspaper reported.

The council represents more than 50 logging and wood products companies, including Seneca and Scott.

Seneca legal affairs director Dale Riddle told the newspaper on Friday that the company is joining the suit because it bought one of the contracts that has been halted, the Millicoma Lookout timber sale, from the Elliott State Forest in Coos County.

The logging industry firms have an interest in the case because they rely on timber sales from state and federal agencies and because the public lands case could set a precedent restricting their “use and management” of private lands for timber production, attorney Dominic Carollo wrote in their motion to join the suit.

CORVALLIS

At this festival, it’s good that things are still up in the air • Event draws new and veteran jugglers — and busts myths about the activity

By Joce Dewitt Corvallis Gazette-Times

CORVALLIS — Serious jugglers often find themselves correcting a slew of misconceptions: that the activity is only meant for coordinated people with the utmost mental focus and discipline; that becoming a decent juggler means hours upon hours of practice; that all good jugglers fall into the demographic of middle-aged men.

Fourteen-year-old Rachel Leshikar, of Kennewick, Wash., spends most of her time shattering that last notion.

As a professional juggler for about five years, Leshikar has gotten good enough to perform next to jugglers who have been involved in the hobby for more than 50 years, and it all started at the Juggling and Unicycling Festival in Corvallis.

The festival, directed by Corvallis resident David Sallee, recently brought jugglers from all over the region to McAlexander Fieldhouse on the Oregon State campus for a weekend of workshops and performances.

The event is one of many held by the Pacific Northwest Juggling Convention.

“I was 9 years old at the first festival,” Leshikar said.

She came with no experience but quickly learned basic tricks and was immediately “bit by the juggling bug,” Sallee said.

It doesn’t take much longer than 30 minutes for an inexperienced juggler to learn with three balls, he said. In fact, many hours throughout the three-day event are dedicated to introductory and how-to sessions for jugglers of all experience levels to learn from their peers.

Bill Barr, Leshikar’s professional juggling partner and a 53-year veteran of the pastime, said that is one of the best parts.

Amanda Cowan / Corvallis Gazette-Times

Jugglers Bill Barr, right, and Greg Leshikar, both of Washington, get into the spirit of the Juggling and Unicycling Festival at Oregon State University in Corvallis.

“It’s not gender-separated or generationally separated,” Barr said. “We’re disciplined but we look at it as having fun.”

The festival attracts individuals and families for many reasons, but one reason in particular makes it possible for them to come back: the price.

“The goal is to make the festival free to everyone,” said Sallee, who has been juggling for 28 years. “The community is incredibly giving and willing to share.”

The Corvallis Juggling and Unicycle Club sponsors the event, but does not have the funds to hold it every year. Each festival costs about $8,000 to put on.

“The way we do it is we raise money and, depending on how long it takes to get enough, that’s when we hold the festival,” Sallee said. The last Corvallis festival was in 2009.

Tiny town stands tall after erecting 70-foot flagpole

By Jessie Higgins The World (Coos Bay)

POWERS — The tiny town of Powers realized a two-year dream this Independence Day by building a 70-foot flagpole in the heart of town.

The flag represents years of effort and decades of history for the little community.

“It is more than a flag,” said Patty Adamek, one of the many residents who helped raise money for the project. “It awakened a lot of spirit in the community,” she said.

The project was Powers Lions Club member Jay Allred’s brainchild. In 2010, he read an article that highlighted Dorris, Calif., for having the tallest flagpole west of the Mississippi, standing at 200 feet. Allred thought it’d be nice if Powers had a flagpole that stood 201 feet.

He quickly determined that the Powers Lions Club couldn’t afford such a massive project. But by then Powers had rallied.

That year, the Lions Club was able to volunteer with Cycle Oregon, a ride that annually takes cyclists through different Oregon towns. The event raised about $5,200,

Adamek said. With that money, the town could erect a 30to 50-foot flagpole, but several community members decided bigger was better and donated more money. Other people got on board to seek even more donations.

By 2012, the Lions Club had brought in about $10,000, countless volunteer hours and donated services.

On Independence Day, about 200 Powers residents descended on Bicentennial Park at noon to officially welcome the flag.

“We’re a very patriotic community,” said Tish Mowe, a Powers resident since 1978. “I think everybody needs a flagpole like this.”

A family studies the weekend breakfast menu at the Pambiche Cuban restaurant. For more than a decade, the Maribona family has blended Spanish and Africa styles with Caribbean ingredients, in a variety of unusual entrees priced at $18 and under.

A server wheels a cart of chicken dishes and other small plates through Wong’s King Seafood, Oregon’s best bet for true Chinese dim sum.

More than 100 varieties of fresh dumplings and other bitesize dishes are served daily between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m.

Recent studies have found that in the wake of the recession, just half the country’s population has enough money in the bank to survive a financial crisis, such as losing a job for a few months, and less than one-fifth of the population is financially ready to retire.

These are some of the reasons why community groups like NeighborImpact, a Redmond-based nonprofit working with the region’s low-income population, and private financial institutions are offering classes, incentive programs and one-on-one sessions aimed at stressing the importance of saving and getting people in the habit of putting away a little bit of money each month no matter what their age or financial situation (see “Building a habit,” Page C7).

“The idea is to get people to save,” said Yolanda Vanderpool, a housing counselor with NeighborImpact.

“You have to tell them seven times before it sinks in, and they have to do it 20 times before it becomes a habit.”

Vanderpool said people placed less importance on saving in the past because they operated in a world where credit was always available, most often in the form of loans taken against the value of their homes, and real estate prices always increased.

“It was a rude awakening,” she said, adding that the economic downturn shattered both of these myths. “People developed a false sense of security (about their financial future), and now that sense of security has been taken away.... Now, we have to have a back-up plan.”

Grim statistics A June phone survey conducted by BankRate. com, a personal finance company and content provider, shed light on the new financial reality when it found that 51 percent of the country’s population had saved enough money to cover expenses for three months.

Bankrate’s survey found only 28 percent of the country has enough money to get by for six months and 26 percent of the population had no emergency savings at all. Last year, only 54 percent of the population had enough money saved to cover three months of expenses and 24 percent of the population had no savings at all.

A separate survey conducted by Employee Benefit Research Institute, a nonprofit research group that studies employee benefits and pay, paints a much bleaker picture for retirement planning. This survey, which was released in March, found only 14 percent of American workers feel comfortable with their retirement finances and just 40 percent have amassed more than $25,000 in investments and savings accounts to pay for their retirement.

Financial planners estimate retired people typically spend 65 to 85 percent of what they earned while they were working each year.

SUNDAY, JULY 8, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

A & A

Dinner guest grows weary of catering to her hostess Dear Abby: Some friends of ours entertain often, and ask certain guests to bring dishes for as many as 15 to 18 people. This has evolved to the point that I am often left a message telling me to come up with a specific dish. Because I am a good cook, the dishes they request can be quite elaborate.

Last week, two of the eight couples invited were asked to bring a dish for dinner.

As I was unwrapping mine, the hostess told me to mix it together with the other one, which had been bought at the supermarket!

She seemed put out with me when I replied that I had spent many hours preparing my dish and would rather not combine them.

Abby, four years of this is enough for me. In the future when I’m invited, I’ll accept and say that I’ll contribute some wine. Period.

Please don’t advise that we refuse invitations from this family — they are my husband’s oldest friends, and our husbands do business together. By the way, this couple is very wealthy. They could afford to cater all of these gatherings. — Not the Hired Help Dear Not the Hired Help: Take wine and offer no apologies. If it was good enough for the Last Supper, it should be good enough for your friends.

Dear Abby: My girlfriend, “Connie,� and I have been together for 13 months. I have been divorced a year and a half. Connie’s divorce became final six months ago, but she and her husband were separated for more than a year.

Connie’s daughter, “Libby,� is being married later this year. She’s a wonderful girl, and I wish she were my daughter. I wish her the best.

My problem is, I will not be

DEAR ABBY attending the rehearsal dinner, the wedding or the reception. Connie says that if I were to show up, her ex would make a scene and ruin the day for Libby. He hasn’t gotten on with his life, and Connie wants Libby’s day to be special.

I understand that, but I have mixed emotions. I love Libby very much and would never do anything to hurt her, but I truly want to be a part of Connie’s and Libby’s lives.

It’s going to be hard for me to sit home while everyone else is enjoying the celebration. Please give me your view. — Left Out in Little Rock Dear Left Out: The last thing you should do is sit home and brood. Make plans with friends for those two days and keep yourself occupied.

You are neither “Cinderfella� nor an outcast, and I’m sure Connie feels as bad as you that you’ll be absent from the festivities.

Connie is sacrificing her personal preference to ensure that her daughter’s wedding goes as smoothly as possible.

She knows what kind of a scene her ex-husband is capable of. Please support her and do not take this personally.

Dear Abby: Please settle a long-standing family dispute.

Is the spider that climbed up the waterspout itsy-bitsy or eensy-weensy? — Webbed in Columbia, Md. Dear Webbed: If the dispute is long-standing, then it is not eensy-weensy. However, the spider that climbed up the waterspout was itsy-bitsy; at least that’s the way I learned it. — Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscope: Happy Birthday for Sunday, July 8, 2012

By Jacqueline Bigar This year you focus on your feelings and emotions, especially come fall. You will notice that you have a tendency to land on your feet — like a cat with nine lives. You also will feel the need to let go of a situation that no longer works. You are clearing the way for a very special new beginning next year. If you are single, you know what works for you. Do not settle. You easily could be surprised by a choice you make late spring 2013. If you are attached, the two of you relate to each other with new energy and warmth.

PISCES encourages you to spend more time around water.

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) HHH Finally, you find time to be mellow and maybe even recuperate from recent socializing. How you handle a personal matter could change radically as you get some distance from the situation at hand.

Tonight: Make it an early bedtime.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH You finally have time to hang out with friends. Put your feet up, jump in the pool or participate in some fun activity you all will enjoy. Tonight: Make the most of the last few minutes of the weekend.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHH Remain sensitive with an older friend or relative. Go off and make plans together, yet leave some time for yourself. Finally, you seem to be able to communicate the depth of your feelings. Tonight: Get a head start on tomorrow.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH You really do not care what others seem to want or where they are coming from. Listen to your instincts with someone at a distance. Express your feelings in a way that someone understands.

Think about a trip in the near future.

Tonight: Put on a favorite piece of music.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH You could be in tune with a partner to an unusual level. When you are this much in sync, mutual decisions emerge. You feel good about this person and with what is happening. You finally radiate your caring side. Tonight: Have a good time.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

HHHH People seem to keep coming toward you. For you, this could be overwhelming. Accept that, and enjoy the change. You could be witnessing the beginning of a lifestyle change. Tonight: Choose which person and which set of plans you would like to go along with.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHH Use today to settle in. A trip to the gym and/or some walking might be necessary to make you feel as good as possible. Take time to visit with someone who often plays a role in your daily life who you have not seen for several days.

Tonight: Get some extra R and R. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHHH You have such an adventuresome nature. Follow your instincts and do what you have wanted to do for a while. Those involved might be delighted, and you could be, too. Stop holding back so much. Tonight: Maximize every moment.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Mellow out at home with a friend or loved one. Much has gone on, and you might need a respite. Reminisce about a recent event together. Once you start talking, this person reveals much more than you dreamed possible.

Tonight: Dinner for two.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHH Whether you are ready or not, others open up and spill the beans. Some of what you hear could stun you, while other information might delight you.

Someone is allowing you into the inner workings of his or her mind. Tonight: Go with someone’s suggestion.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Your impression of someone could change radically as he or she starts to open up. You might be surprised by what you hear. Determine what you want to get from this bond, then act accordingly. Tonight: Treat others to a favorite dessert.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH You are in your element, and no matter what you share or choose to do, things seem perfect.

Consider this moment golden.

Romance plays into your plans.

Allow your imagination to come forth. Tonight: If you can dream it up, it probably can happen. Š 2011 by King Features Syndicate

THE BULLETIN • SUNDAY, JULY 8, 2012

A bartender pours specialty cocktails at Ping, located beneath the historic “Hung Far Low” sign in Chinatown. The casual bar and grill serves Southeast Asian-style street food, including meat and vegetable skewers and a Malay curry soup called laksa.

A bowl of Vietnamese pho — beefnoodle soup topped with bean sprouts, mint leaves and jalapeno peppers — adorns a tabletop at Pho DaLat.

Biwa servers and patrons focus on the food at hand in this downstairs room in an east Portland industrial zone. Influenced more by Korean than Japanese flavors, the izakaya serves a dinner and late-night menu that ranges from meat skewers to deep-frid kimchi.

Ethnic Continued from C1 • Ping was the brainchild of Andy Ricker, the James Beard Award-winning founder of Pok Pok who has since established two other Portland restaurants and, earlier this year, Pok Pok NY in Brooklyn.

Though its location beneath the historic “Hung Far Low” sign in Chinatown is not technically an izakaya, it does serve outstanding street food — more in the style of Thailand, Vietnam and Malaysia than of northeastern Asia. I love the spicy skewers of baby octopus ($3.50) and shishito peppers ($3), and its version of laksa nyonya ($14), a coconut-curry soup with seafood, is as close as I’ve found to the original since I lived in Singapore.

102 N.W. Fourth Ave.; 503229-7464, www.pingpdx.com.

Lunch and dinner Tuesday to Saturday. Moderate.

• Shigezo Sushi Izakaya is the first American foothold of a Tokyo restaurant group that began more than 20 years ago specializing in okonomiyaki (savory omelets, here $6).

This spacious downtown bar

and grill combines a sushi bar with an izakaya that serves a variety of hot and cold, tapasstyle small plates. I especially like the mackerel ($8.50 to $10) off the robata grill and the yakiniku steak ($14).

910 S.W. Salmon St.; 503688-5202, www.shigezo-pdx. com. Lunch and dinner every day. Budget and moderate.

• Not far east of the Willamette River in an industrial zone, Biwa occupies a basement room that includes a gallery exhibit of Japanese textile art through July. Influenced more by Korean than Japanese flavors, it serves a dinner and late-night menu that ranges from skewers of lamb and pork belly ($4) to breaded and deep-fried kimchi ($7). I like the manila clams steamed in sake and ginger ($10).

Budget and moderate.

• Located in east Portland’s Mount Tabor neighborhood, Tanuki may be an adults-only dive, but it’s a great dive.

Behind a single, easily overlooked door, off-color Japanese manga and anime videos

play on a corner TV as chefowner Janis “Nuki” Martin goes crazy in the kitchen. On my last afternoon visit, I refueled on ojingohchae (sweetand-spicy squid jerky) and lap cheong (cured sausage with spicy mustard) and spent only $10 — including two Sapporo beers!

Dinner Tuesday to Saturday.

Budget.

Other East Asian • In the same general neighborhood as Tanuki is Wong’s King Seafood, Oregon’s best bet for true Chinese dim sum.

Just like in Hong Kong, servers wheel carts piled high with steamer baskets of handmade dim sum (typically one-bite dumplings) through a cavernous room of round tables filled with local Chinese families.

More than 100 varieties of fresh dim sum are served daily from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. (earlier on weekends). It’s easy to fill up for little more than $10.

Later in the day, seafood taken straight from live tanks is the specialty; it may be prepared in a variety of styles, mainly Cantonese.

8733 S.E. Division St.; 503788-8883, www.wongsking. com. Three meals every day.

Budget and moderate.

• The east Portland neighborhoods near Interstate 205 and 82nd Avenue have a high concentration of first- and second-generation Asian immigrants, and one of the largest Asian shopping centers in the metropolis, the Fubonn Mall, is located here. After browsing the exotic foods in the supermarket, I sometimes drop into the Sokongdong Korean Restaurant for a meal of spicy pork or chicken bulgogi ($15.95).

Specialties of this cafe are tofu and barbecue.

2850 S.E. 82nd Ave., 503808-9990. Lunch and dinner every day. Moderate.

• Every sushi lover, it seems, has a favorite raw-fish restaurant in Portland. Mine is Bamboo Sushi. Why? For one, it has a sleek, contemporary look and a hip staff of young, good-looking men and women. Secondly, it emphasizes sustainable seafood; you will not find endangered species on the sushi menu. And, of course, I love the fish (a plate of assorted sushi runs $15). The original location in the east side’s Kerns neighborhood has recently been complemented by a second location in northwest Portland.

310 S.E. 28th Ave., 503-2325255, and 836 N.W. 23rd Ave., 971-229-1925, www.bamboosushi.com. Dinner every day. Moderate.

Southeast Asian • It’s hard to beat a big bowl of Vietnamese beef-noodle soup when you’re feeling under the weather, or perhaps a little hung over from the night before. My go-to place in Portland is Pho DaLat, with locations near the Portland airport and in the Hawthorne district.

Food is tasty and cheap, and you’ll see as many Asian faces

Japanese anime cartoons play on a television above the bar during happy hour at Tanuki, a neighborhood izakaya in east Portland’s Mount Tabor district. A couple of beers and two filling Korean-Okinawan snacks can cost less than $10 in the late afternoon.

as European ones, which is always a good sign. Pho is priced at $6.50 for a small bowl, $7.50 for a large.

• The aforementioned Pok Pok is the casual, open-sided southeast Portland cafe that made chef Andy Ricker a national phenomenon. The Thai food here is often not what you’ve come to expect from other American Thai restaurants — yes, there are curries, noodles and green papaya salads, but you may also be tempted by stewed duck leg ($14) and catfish salad ($12).

My recent lunch favorite has been khao man som tan

($9.50), a pork-and-papaya salad combination.

3226 S.E. Division St.; 503232-1387, www.pokpokpdx. com. Lunch and dinner every day. Budget to moderate.

• American Thai traditionalists may prefer Red Onion, which serves modestly priced Thai food in northwest Portland’s often-pricey Nob Hill neighborhood. A friend and I recently shared a generous lunch of stuffed angel wings ($7), chicken green curry ($7.50) and three-flavor halibut ($10), and came away with leftovers for dinner.

Sidewalk seating outside Habibi, a Lebanese-Syrian restaurant on Morrison Street, makes it a popular place for lunch on sunny summer days. Owner Mazen Khoury gives credit to his mother, father and other relatives for such recipes as lentil soups and artichoke-heart casseroles.

Diners at Andina, an upscale Peruvian restaurant in the Pearl District, enjoy a mix of tapas in the eatery’s inner courtyard area. While entrees are priced as high as $35, tapas cost $10 to $19 per small plate.

From previous page • When well-known local restaurateur Bruce Carey partnered with chef Chris Israel in Saucebox back in 1995, the hip pan-Asian fusion restaurant was a novelty in downtown Portland. It’s not “genuine” Asian food, perhaps, but the recipes devised by Israel and a succession of other outstanding chefs come directly from onsite research in Southeast Asia.

My favorites include sweet-potato spring rolls ($8) and Javanese lamb rendang ($25).

214 S.W. Broadway, 503241-3393, www.saucebox.com.

Dinner every day. Moderate to expensive.

South Asian I confess that my favorite Portland-area Indian restaurant, Chennai Masala, is 30 miles away in Hillsboro, which I am not including in this listing. But there are some excellent options in the city.

• In downtown Portland, the East India Co. Grill & Bar is a classy restaurant specializing in tandoori-oven cuisine and other hearty dishes from north India. It’s not exactly colonial, but the décor and lighting are reflective of the former era of the British Raj. Full lunches are priced $8.95 to $15.95; dinners top out at $25, and there are numerous vegan entrees.

821 S.W. 11th Ave., 503-2278815, www.eastindiacopdx. com. Lunch and dinner Monday to Saturday. Moderate to expensive.

• Vindalho Spice Route Cuisine is as trendy as the Clinton neighborhood in which it is located, but you can still get mouth-watering happy-hour dishes — Goan-style mussels, honey-cumin chicken wings — for as little as $5. The restaurant takes a farm-fresh ap-

proach to classic dishes of the Indian subcontinent, pairing them with classic cocktails and local beers.

2038 S.E. Clinton St., 503467-4550, www.vindalho.com.

Dinner Tuesday to Sunday.

Moderate.

• More traditional Namaste, not far from the airport in northeast Portland, may be best known for its extensive lunch ($9.95) and dinner ($12.95) buffets. The spacious restaurant also offers a regular dinner menu, topping out at $22 for a tandoori mixed grill, but priced at no more than $14 for full south Indian vegetarian meals.

8303 N.E. Sandy Blvd., 503257-5059, www.namasteindiancuisine.com<cq>. Lunch and dinner every day. Moderate.

Middle Eastern • I’m not privy to some of the specific nuances of Middle Eastern and Arabic cuisines, but I know that I love what two Iraqi families are doing at Dar Salam. This small Alberta Street cafe serves shwarma sandwiches, kabobs, mezza platters and dolmas (stuffed vegetables) along with Iraqi marga (chickpea or eggplant stews for $8) and sinfully sweet date pastries ($2 to $4).

2921 N.E. Alberta St., 503206-6148. Lunch Saturday and Sunday, dinner Wednesday to Sunday. Budget to moderate.

• The first Portland Lebanese restaurant that I got to know was Nicholas, and it remains my favorite. I know nowhere else in this city where you can get a five-course mezza plates for only $13.50 (or $12.50 without meat). And each meal comes with a round of pita twice the size of your plate.

It’s been a Portland institution for more than 25 years.

318 S.E. Grand Ave., 503235-5123, and 3223 N.E. Broadway, 503-445-4700, www.nicholasrestaurant.com. Lunch and dinner every day. Budget.

• Not only does Habibi add a Syrian edge to Lebanese cuisine; there may be no Portland restaurateur who gives more credit to family back home than Mazen Khoury. The artichoke-heart and majadra casseroles, for example, come from his “loving mother”; the soups are his father’s; the pizzas and pastas come from sisters and nieces. Happy-hour plates are kept under $5.

1012 S.W. Morrison St., 503274-0628, 221 S.W. Pine St., 503-459-4441, www.habibirestaurantpdx.com. Lunch and dinner every day. Budget to moderate.

• Iran, home of the Persian people, is in the same part of the world as Lebanon and Syria; in Portland, the Persian House is in the same block as Habibi’s midtown location. This 20-year-old restaurant offers a modest lunch buffet, but if you want to be a little adventurous, try the lamb with sautéed spinach, prunes and orange juice on saffron rice ($15.99).

1026 S.W. Morrison St., 971-285-3138, www.persianhousepdx.com. Lunch and dinner Monday to Saturday.

Moderate.

African • I think the best of Portland’s several east African restaurants is Bete-Lukas. Located on the second floor of a nondescript building near the Laurelhurst neighborhood, this Ethiopian restaurant serves up beef, lamb, chicken and vegetarian dishes on spongy, pancake-like bread called injera. Spicy seasonings are imported directly from the homeland. Best of all,

1314 N.W. Glisan St., 503-2289535, www.andinarestaurant. com. Lunch and dinner every day. Moderate to expensive.

• Just down the block, in the glitzy dining room and bar at Oba!, chef Scott Neuman has been turning out Caribbeanstyle renditions of seafood and meats for 15 years. I’ve been a fan for nearly that long.

Among my favorite entrees are pan-seared, macadamia nutcrusted swordfish ($31) and butternut-squash enchiladas with quinoa salad ($19).

555 N.W. 12th Ave., 503-2286161, www.obarestaurant.com.

Dinner every day. Moderate to expensive.

• Miami’s Little Havana has nothing on Pambiche, a colorful Cuban restaurant in northeast Portland. For more than a decade, the Maribona family has blended Spanish and African styles with Caribbean ingredients, in a variety of entrees priced at $18 and under — pork tongue, ox tail and the ajiaco pepper-pot stew. And weekend breakfasts are excellent; I like the cua-cua ($9.50) of beef hash with eggs, avocado and ripe plantain.

2811 N.E. Glisan St., 503233-0511, www.pambiche.com.

Lunch and dinner every day, breakfast Saturday and Sunday. Moderate.

Portland’s best tapas

Khao man som tam — green papaya salad served with coconut rice and sweet, shredded pork with fried shallots and cilantro — is a tempting Thai-style lunch at Pok Pok.

the prices are kept low: Full vegetarian combination dinners are $11, meat combos $14.

Dinner Tuesday to Sunday.

Budget to moderate.

• For a special occasion, northwest Portland’s long-established Moroccan restaurant, Marrakesh, offers everything from a romantic casbah atmosphere, with cushioned seating at low tables, to belly dancers who float across the tentlike dining rooms. Most diners choose a five-course dinner for as little as $18.50; a choice of 15 entrees ranges from tagine of braised hare to vegetarian couscous.

1201 N.W. 21st Ave., 503-7664981, www.marrakeshportland.com. Dinner every day.

Moderate to expensive.

Latin American I won’t include Mexican restaurants in this category, focusing on nationalities just a little further south of the Rio Grande … or the Florida Keys.

• Peruvian cuisine is widely regarded as the best in Latin America; in Europe, culinary doyens go so far as to call it the best in all of the Americas. And no one in Oregon does it better than Andina, in the heart of the Pearl District. Entrees ($19 to $35) are as gourmet as the prices might indicate, but I’m usually pleased with a couple of tapas ($10 to $19), such as empanadas or ceviche, along with a signature pisco sour cocktail.

• Toro Bravo is exceptional.

John Gorham’s restaurant is a short walk north of the Rose Garden. An ever-changing list of tapas options (my menu listed 56, not counting desserts) places its emphasis on Moorish Andalusia, and includes both Spanish and Moroccan plates.

If you’re hungry, as a friend and I recently were, go for the $30-per-person chef’s choice

Our nine courses varied from octopus a la plancha ($8), fava beans with pork and manchego cheese ($7), glazed carrots with red peppers and capers ($8), duck-liver mousse terrine ($8), and seared scallops with romesco ($17).

Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s go fly a kite â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and make it a family vacation

By Lynn Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Rourke Hayes The Dallas Morning News

For low-cost and high-flying fun, set the sky ablaze with the colors and shapes of your choice when you go fly a kite.

Here are five places where you and your family can go: 1 . Kitty Hawk, N.C. Follow in the footsteps of Orville and Wilbur Wright, the famous bicycle makers turned flight phenoms from Dayton, Ohio. The brothers made annual trips to the Outer Banks, where they found steady winds, wide beaches and friendly people who helped the pair pursue their passion to fly. The Wrights first used kites to help solve the mystery of flight. Create your own challenges as you and your family launch bright colors into the sky along this scenic swath of Atlantic coastline.

Contact: 1-877-359-8447; www.kittyhawk.com; www .outerbanks.org 2. Long Beach, Wash. Visit this scenic spot on the coast to gain inspiration from pros.

Visit the World Kite Museum & Hall of Fame, home to more than 1,500 kites and the only American museum dedicated to the science and satisfaction of kite flying.

During the third week of August, the Washington Kite Festival fills the sky with a colorful array of sky-riders hoisted by famous flyers from around the world. Enjoy your own high-flying adventures on the wide beaches.

Contact: 360-642-4020; www.worldkitemuseum.com; www.kitefestival.com 3. Westwood Park, Los Angeles. Claim a picnic table

as home base and then set off to enjoy this urban green space where youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll vie for the highest-flying kite with local UCLA students and faculty who retreat to this park. Kids can enjoy the swing sets and climbing structures that provide contrast to the nearby skyscrapers that line Wilshire Boulevard.

Contact: 323-644-6661; www.laparks.org 4. Corpus Christi beaches.

With the deep-blue water as your backdrop, sea breezes provide a year-round opportunity to fly your favorite kites while enjoying the beaches along the Texas Gulf Coast.

Camp for a long weekend or spend the day at Mustang Island State Park, a 5-mile stretch of beach just south of Port Aransas.

Take a break from kite-flying with your clan to enjoy shelling, fishing, bonfires, sand-castle building and swimming.

Contact: 1-800-766-2322; www.visitcorpuschristitx.org 5. Wildwood, N.J. Plan your trip to coincide with the annual Memorial Day Kite Festival or visit anytime for salt air-fueled kite flying and good times in a carnival-style beach town that has lured family travelers for decades.

Stroll the boardwalk, go fishing or crabbing, and play miniature golf. Hop aboard the childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rides or strap into one of six scream-provoking roller coasters for a thrill session. Swim in the Atlantic surf or check out a beachfront water park.

Dudepins is like Pinterest but, you know, for dudes The Washington Post

After a spring spent dissecting Pinterest with a thousand gingham-patterned scalpels (It’s feminist! It’s anti-feminist! It perpetuates princess culture! IT NEEDS MORE GINGHAM!), purveyors of aspirational, kittens-in-mittens social-networking sites can turn their attention to a new site: Dudepins.com.

Social networking with a side of Jim Beam and rugby tackles and bacon tacos. Pinterest for Dudes.

Two young tech-type Vancouver, B.C., dudes were having a drink back in February, lamenting the lack of dude-

Saving Continued from C1 “It’s completely different for everybody,” said Bob Mullins, a certified financial planner with the nonprofit Money Management International’s office in Bend. “You have certain expenses that are always going to be there and other expenses that are going to be much lower.”

Mullins said one way people can reduce their post-retirement expenses is to pay down as many debts — credit cards, loans, mortgages, etc. — as possible so they don’t have to make these payments in the future. Once they’ve paid these off, they should avoid taking on any more debt, he said.

But while paying down debts should be a priority, Mullins said it should not take the place of saving for retirement.

In fact, he claims retirement savings should be near the top of everybody’s financial to-do list. People should get in the habit of saving, he said, even if all they can spare is $5 a month or whatever money they save by eating out less, waiting to rent a movie rather than watch it at the theater or buying a used vehicle rather than a new one.

While you can get a loan to buy a house, go to college or handle other major expenses, “nobody gives you a loan for retirement,” Mullins said. The only thing that should take precedence over retirement savings is building an emergency fund to draw upon in case someone loses their job, he added.

Mullins said that while it’s also easy to tell people they need to save, it can be very hard for people to get in the habit of doing so, especially in today’s economy where people lucky enough to have a job may be in a situation where their hours have been cut or they haven’t

oriented materials on Pinterest. “We thought Pinterest was great,” says Colin Brown, one of the dudes. “But I just didn’t feel like I was connecting with people who had similar taste.

Weddings and fashion design — that’s not really what I’m interested in.”

So they created an online bro space. With a slogan: “Man up. Sign up. Pin up.”

In May, Dudepins opened in Beta to invited users.

It could just as easily be read as surrealist parody — dudism by dada. The main page of Dudepins frequently reads like a pre-“Mad Men” rule book of masculinity: Dudes want to peruse The Ultimate

Steak Manual. Dudes would appreciate a poster reading “I have a mustache, therefore I am.” Brown admits that Dudepin’s definition of dudedom is tailored to his and Szybalski’s tastes; the two retain veto power over all posts.

That last caveat has gained the site more attention than typical of a new site. Media writer Mallary Tenore rebuked the site for reinforcing limited views of manhood.

Others have speculated that Dudepins — along with similar new sites like Gentlemint and Manteresting — heralds the victory of masculinity in the feminized social networking space.

FREDERICKSBURG, TEXAS

A little slice of Germany in the Lone Star State • From wildflowers to a presidential ranch, Fredericksburg has it all

By Luaine Lee McClatchy-Tribune News Service

FREDERICKSBURG, Texas — Who would have thought that deep in the heart of Texas sits a little slice of Germany?

The town of Fredericksburg was settled in the 1840s by German immigrants and you can still find people with names like Wolfgang and Fritz and Brunhilde. (Well, OK, maybe not Brunhilde .)

There are German biergartens, quaint gastehauses, homemade sauerkraut, sausages as fat as Texas hogs, and a klatch of artists who discovered this little haven before anyone else.

Just 63 miles north of San Antonio, Fredericksburg sits in the Texas hill country, circled by rolling topography and the exposed volcanic dome, Enchanted Rock, a favorite hiking trek.

Sprinkled throughout the town are unique one-room “Sunday” houses, built by the early farmers who’d come to town Saturday, overnight in their tiny cottages, and head off to church on Sunday.

Many of these have been preserved, and you can even rent one for your stay. Arrangements for any lodging may be made at Gastehaus Schmidt on Main Street, or try the replicated Sunday houses at the Fredericksburg Herb Farm with its state-of-the-art spa and bistro.

A good place to start is the Visitor Center at the corner of Austin and Lincoln streets, then a quick jaunt to the historic area, including the Marktplatz with its Vereins Kirche Society Church) Museum, which was the town’s first public building. The Pioneer Museum Complex, down the street, with its 10 historic buildings, recalls the early days of the struggling colony.

Through September the Marktplatz is the location of the local Farmers Market featuring tree-ripened produce.

Peaches are their specialty; you can even pick your own if you want the exercise.

There are 150 quaint shops along Fredericksburg’s Main Street (once the route of the Butterfield Stage), where you can find everything from ranch supplies to a chocolatier.

Another juxtaposition here is the National Museum of the Pacific War. Miles from the Pacific Ocean, Fredericksburg was the birthplace of Adm. Chester Nimitz, commander of the Pacific Fleet during World War II. While military museums can be less than fascinating to those who haven’t served, this is one of the most compelling in the country. The museum is divided into three zones. The George H.W. Bush Gallery uses multimedia and interactive displays as you witness each battle of the Pacific, complete with recorded eyewitness accounts, actual relics — including a tank that was destroyed and the three-barreled gun that did the firing.

On display is one of the two-man Japanese subs that prowled Pearl Harbor, a crashed fighter plane discovered in the jungle and the real skin of “Fat Man” — one of the atomic bombs that ended the war.

There are nine wineries around Fredericksburg, with 14 varieties of grapes. Especially tasty are the cabernet, vernage, chardonnays and fume blancs. Pedernales Cellars and Messina Hof Hill Country are two examples.

East of town lies Becker Winery, which offers six tastings for $10 and a rollicking winestomp (a la “I Love Lucy”) in August and September.

Nearby is the Lyndon B. Johnson State and National Historical Park — LBJ’s birthplace, the one-room school he attended and the ranch where he and Lady Bird lived out their lives.

The surprisingly modest home has been kept in pristine condition. It’s as though the Johnsons had just stepped out for a Texas barbeque — a favorite event for the 36th president. Clothes still hang in the closet, the office still sports

Blazers president Miller resigns Prineville Larry Miller

The Associated Press PORTLAND — Larry Miller has resigned as president of the Portland Trail Blazers.

The team announced Miller’s surprising departure Saturday. The team says he is leaving to take a po-

sition with another Portland-area business.

Miller was president of the Blazers the past five years. He helped oversee the team’s hiring of Neil Olshey as general manager early last month. During Miller’s tenure,

the Blazers returned to the postseason for the first time in six seasons, making three straight trips to the playoffs from 2009-2011. Portland was 28-38 last season and missed the playoffs.

TENNIS No. 5 for Serena Serena Williams wins the women’s final at Wimbledon, D5

tourney on the upswing ZACK HALL PRINEVILLE — arge Pierce is scrambling.

The volunteer clubhouse manager at Prineville Golf & Country Club has loads to do for the Prineville Invitational — a pro-am being played this weekend that, at 57 years old, counts as the second-oldest golf tournament in Central Oregon.

In the old course’s modest clubhouse, Pierce is managing a small army of volunteers, all of whom are helping to make the 125 golfers at the tournament feel at home.

“We are mainly volunteers who are keeping this thing going,” says Pierce, a longtime member at Prineville G&CC. She then abruptly ends the conversation.

“I have to go. I have about six people in there volunteering right now cooking and …” she says as she turns and makes her way back to the clubhouse.

It was not long ago that there was not nearly as much to do.

In 2008, the Prineville Invitational had just 16 five-golfer teams and an iffy future.

Thanks to the work of its volunteers and the contributions of a pair of professionals with deep Prineville roots, the Prineville Invitational is once again thriving. A full field of 125 golfers is playing in the 2012 tournament, which concludes with today’s final round.

And the future of the event is now looking better than it has in years.

“They’ve done a great job resurrecting the spirit and the energy there at the club,” says Brian Whitcomb, a Prineville native who is the owner of Lost Tracks Golf Club in Bend and is also a former president of the PGA of America.

“This is a great weekend. …

It’s a great opportunity there and a celebration of a lot of good things.”

It certainly helps that the tournament has so many who care for it.

PLANCHES DES BELLES FILLES, France — A brief look at Saturday’s seventh stage of the 99th Tour de France: Stage: The Tour’s first day in the mountains took riders 123 miles across the Vosges range to the first of three summit finishes, at La Planche des Belles Filles, a 1,035-meter high ski station.

Winner: Christopher Froome of Britain won the stage by pulling ahead of Sky teammate Bradley Wiggins and defending champ Cadel Evans in the final meters of a punishingly steep category-1 climb that ended with a stretch of road hitting a 14 percent gradient.

Yellow Jersey: Bradley Wiggins of Britain’s Team Sky captured the race leader’s jersey from Swiss rider Fabian Cancellara, who had worn the yellow jersey since Stage 1. Wiggins became the first Briton in 12 years to take the Tour lead and he maintained his gap over Australia’s Evans, who is 10 seconds back. Italy’s Vincenzo Nibali is third, 16 seconds back.

Horner Watch: Bend’s Chris Horner finished the stage in 30th place, 2 minutes, 19 seconds behind the winner. In the overall standings he is 24th, 3:39 behind Wiggins.

Today’s eighth stage: A 98-mile hilly ride from Belfort to Porrentruy, Switzerland.

For blind triathletes, New Sox working out for Youkilis • The former Boston star is now helping partners are there the division-leading Chicago White Sox to show the way

By Rick Gano

The Associated Press

By Zach Schonbrun New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — The toughest of the three legs of an Olympic triathlon, for a blind athlete, is generally the swim.

A plunge into cold water can drown one’s alternate sensory perception. Sudden, seizing panic attacks can follow, like waves of paralyzing disorientation. Shivering fits. It is at these rare nadirs when the blind may seek an encouraging tug.

Six completely blind athletes will swim the 0.93 mile, bike the 24.8 miles and run the 6.2 miles of the New York City Triathlon’s course through the West Side of Manhattan today.

Making every step, spin and stroke along with them will be six volunteer guides, tethered to them.

“It’s a teamwork, a partnership, no question,” said Caroline Gaynor, who will be making her fifth guiding appearance.

Kevin Youkilis was recently traded from the Boston Red Sox to the Chicago White Sox. Nam Y. Huh / The Associated Press

CHICAGO — Kevin Youkilis changed Sox last month, from Red to White, and made the move from Boston to Chicago, where he is again an everyday player.

And through the first week and a half with his new team, the change has been good for both him and the AL Central leaders.

Taking over at third base and batting second, Youkilis had 11 RBIs and two homers in his first 11 games.

In his first homestand at U.S. Cellular Field, Youkilis has been hearing the familiar “Youk”

cries that used to come down from Fenway Park during his successful run with the Red Sox. He had seven RBIs, two homers and a game-winning single in the 10th inning in his first four home games.

“Excited to be in first place.

I think that’s the coolest thing about coming over here,” Youkilis said.

“In this game you have to prove yourself until the day you retire. Every year there’s expectations to fulfill and sometimes you fall short of them and sometimes you exceed them so it’s part of the game. ... I haven’t played up to my capabilities yet this year and hopefully in the second half I can.”

Silva has successfully defended his title 10 times and had a 15-match winning streak. In the second round, Sonnen fell to the canvas and up against the fence after missing with a wild spinning backfist and Silva capitalized, landing a knee to the chest and then a number of solid strikes, forcing the referee to stop the fight. The fight was a rematch of the 2010 fight of the year, where Sonnen dominated Silva for 4 1⁄2 rounds before losing by submission.

• Ibaka: Spain’s talent matches Olympic favorites U.S.: Serge Ibaka believes Spain’s Olympic basketball team has the talent to match the U.S. squad. He’s confident the 2008 silver medalists can compete with the 2012 gold medal favorites and world champions during the games. “They are just like us, they also have players with a lot of talent,” the Oklahoma City power forward said Saturday in his first full day of training with the Spanish team. “They are a

different team to 2008, but their players are still very good.”

Boxing • Klitschko retains world heavyweight belts: Wladimir Klitschko stopped Tony Thompson in the sixth round to keep a comfortable hold on his WBA, IBF and WBO heavyweight titles in Bern, Switzerland. The 36year-old champion Klitschko, 58-3 with 51 knockouts, floored Thompson with a big right hand near the end of the fifth round at Stade de Suisse, and the 40year-old American never recovered. The Ukrainian champion dropped Thompson again in the sixth, and referee Sam Williams gave the challenger a standing count before stopping the fight at 2:56.

Baseball • N.H. team president apologizes for racial slur: The Manchester Fisher Cats issued a statement reiterating “zerotolerance” for abusive language after Boston Red Sox outfielder Carl Crawford says a fan yelled a racial slur at him. Crawford was on a rehab assignment with the Portland Sea Dogs, which were playing at the Fisher Cats’ stadium in Manchester, N.H., when the incident occurred. Fisher Cats President Rick Brenner apologized to Crawford and said the club will ensure that its policy forbidding “foul, abusive or discriminatory language” is enforced.

• Nats’ Harper, Braves’ Bourn added to NL roster: Bryce Harper and Michael Bourn are headed to the All-Star game after all. Harper and Bourn were added to the NL roster for Tuesday’s game in Kansas City after two players dropped out due to injuries. Both outfielders had lost to David Freese in online voting for one of the final spots.

The 19-year-old Harper, a budding star with the Washington Nationals, becomes the youngest position player in the history of the game and third youngest All-Star ever.

Football • Vikings RB Peterson arrested in Houston: Minnesota Vikings star running back Adrian Peterson was arrested on a charge of resisting arrest after an early morning incident where police say it took three officers to subdue him. Houston Police Department spokesman Kese Smith said Peterson was at a downtown nightclub early Saturday morning when an off-duty Houston police officer working security asked Peterson and a group of people he was with to leave because it was closed. The man, who Smith said identified himself as a police officer, left to tell other patrons to leave the club before returning to Peterson’s group to again tell them to leave. Smith said Peterson turned around and told the officer that he heard him the first time and pushed him in the shoulder, causing him to stumble.

— From staff and wire reports

Tony Stewart, front, heads to the finish line for the victory as a multi-car crash takes place behind him during the NASCAR Sprint Cup Series race at Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Fla., Saturday.

Stewart prevails at Daytona The Associated Press DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. — There was no fire or rain. Still, another frantic finish at Daytona International Speedway.

Tony Stewart emerged the winner, charging past Daytona 500 winner Matt Kenseth on the last lap and holding on as the challengers stacked up behind him Saturday night in one of Daytona’s trademark wrecks.

“I don’t even remember what happened that last lap,” said Stewart.

Stewart has 18 victories at Daytona, second only to the late Dale Earnhardt. None of his wins are in the Daytona 500, though. Stewart is zerofor-14 in NASCAR’s biggest race of the year and was a non-factor in February, when the race was delayed a day by rain and then stopped more than two hours for a massive jet dryer fire.

But he’s always strong in the summer race at Daytona, and this visit was no different.

Stewart qualified second but dropped back to 42nd at the start of the race because his time was thrown out by NASCAR after his Chevrolet failed inspection. He quietly rode around — which is his style at restrictor-plate races — and let Roush Fenway Racing teammates Kenseth and Greg Biffle control the front.

“We were going to try to

win the thing and be there at the end,” Biffle said. “We were right there.”

The Roush drivers thought they had the field covered — Kenseth led a race-high 89 laps and Biffle led 35 — and they probably still liked their chances on the final greenwhite-checkered restart.

Kenseth was the leader with Biffle on his bumper, as second-place Stewart was lined up with Kasey Kahne.

Kenseth and Biffle pulled away for a lap, but Stewart came quick on the outside, moved to the front, then crossed down the track in front of Kenseth for the lead.

Seconds later, Biffle seemed to wiggle in traffic and cars began wrecking all over the track in what was tallied to be a 15-car accident.

“I’m not really sure what happened, they just started wrecking behind us,” said Kenseth, who started from the pole in his bid to become the first driver since 1982 to sweep the two Daytona races in the same season.

“It seems like we always end these things in greenwhite-checkers, and whenever you do, really anybody that’s in the front few tandems has a shot to win the thing. It’s so unpredictable. You do things those last two laps that you’d never do the rest of the race.

It’s really hard to figure. You sit out there and ride around and be leading the whole race and come down to one of the green-white-checkers and have no idea where you’re going to finish.”

The final results showed Jeff Burton came from nowhere to finish second in a Richard Childress Racing Chevrolet, followed by Kenseth in a Ford and Joey Logano in a Toyota.

Stewart teammate Ryan Newman, who was involved in a pit road incident with Kahne and Jeff Gordon, finished fifth.

Roush driver Carl Edwards was sixth and was followed

by Kahne, Brad Keselowski in a Dodge and Michael Waltrip.

Bobby Labonte rounded out the top 10.

Denny Hamlin, who battled a bad back all weekend, raced for the win late but was involved in an accident that dropped him to 25th.

Also on Saturday: Vincent Nobile wins K&N Horsepower Challenge NORWALK, Ohio — Vincent Nobile became the youngest driver to win the K&N Horsepower Challenge, the special Pro Stock racewithin-a-race bonus event at the Summit Racing Equipment NHRA Nationals. The 21-year-old Nobile drove his Dodge Avenger to a 6.750-

second run at 205.94 mph in the final round to hold off Jason Line for the $50,000 prize.

Johnny Gray, Steve Torrence, Allen Johnson, and Andrew Hines also raced to the No. 1 qualifying spots in the NHRA Full Throttle Drag Racing Series event.

Franchitti claims pole at Toronto Indy race TORONTO — Defending champion Dario Franchitti won the pole for IndyCar’s race at Toronto. Franchitti won the qualifying session among the fastest six with a time of 59.351 seconds. That was 0.24 seconds ahead of IndyCar points leader Will Power, who will join him on the front for the race today. Franchitti has now won three straight poles, but is looking for a better finish come race day.

Alonso fastest in rain-hit British GP qualifying SILVERSTONE, England — Formula One leader Fernando Alonso put Ferrari on pole for the first time in 31 races after mastering the rainsoaked track in a disrupted qualifying session for the British Grand Prix. The reigning Silverstone champion was just 0.047 seconds faster than Red Bull driver Mark Webber, who will start today’s race alongside him on the front row and is his closest competitor in the championship.

Britain’s Wiggins takes Tour de France lead

By Jamey Keaten The Associated Press

LA PLANCHE DES BELLES FILLES SKI STATION, France — With two weeks left in the Tour de France, the two-man showdown that many predicted is taking shape, with Britain’s Bradley Wiggins already in the yellow jersey — and driver’s seat — while Cadel Evans isn’t.

The 31-year-old Briton and his Team Sky dominated the race’s first summit finish Saturday, with Christopher Froome winning Stage 7 ahead of Evans and Wiggins close on the Australian defending champion’s back wheel.

In the 123-mile trek from Tomblaine to La Planche des Belles Filles, Wiggins took the overall lead from Switzerland’s Fabian Cancellara and gave Britain its first yellow jersey in 12 years — and the first for Sky. “It’s a great day for the team, we won the stage and took the yellow jersey,” Wiggins said in French. “This is my first time in the yellow jersey. It’s incredible — it’s been a dream of mine since I was a kid.”

As the pack disintegrated on the final climb, Evans tried an attack just before the super-steep patch in the last halfmile, but Froome beat him and made it look easy, leading Evans to wonder what he might be in for later.

Cancellara, a time-trial and one-day classics specialist who

New overall leader Bradley Wiggins of Britain, right, grimaces in the last climb toward La Planche des Belles Filles, as he rides with Cadel Evans of Australia, left, during the seventh stage of the Tour de France over 199 kilometers (123.6 miles) with start in Tomblaine and finish in La Planche des Belles Filles, France, Saturday.

had worn yellow since winning the prologue a week ago, was 1 minute, 52 seconds behind Froome — but more importantly 1:50 back of Wiggins.

The Sky leader, who began the day 7 seconds behind Cancellara in second place, leads Evans by 10 seconds. Vincenzo Nibali of Italy was fourth to climb to third overall, 16 seconds behind.

Wiggins, a three-time Olympic track gold medalist looking to become Britain’s first Tour champion, became the prerace favorite after winning the Paris-Nice, Tour de Romandie and Criterium du Dauphine stage races this year.

Wiggins has more breath-

ing room than Cancellara when he was leader. Only five riders are within a minute of Wiggins, including Denis Menchov of Russia, who won the 2009 Giro d’Italia and the Spanish Vuelta — twice. The Swiss rider, by contrast, had had 22 riders within 48 seconds of his lead as Saturday’s stage began.

With two time trials and more climbing days in the Alps and Pyrenees still to come, Wiggins played down speculation that he might have taken the lead too early with the finish in Paris on July 22.

“You can’t get too cocky in this race and choose when you take the yellow jersey.

I’d much rather be in yellow than in hospital — like half the peloton,” he said, referring to injuries from crashes in recent days.

Race organizers also tallied Saturday the full fallout of two bunch crashes a day earlier, including a high-speed one as riders were jockeying for position in a final sprint. A total of 13 riders dropped out due to injuries in the spills, bringing the number of withdrawals through seven stages to 17 — the highest number at this point since 1998.

One of them was Garmin-Sharp leader and Giro champion Ryder Hesjedal of Canada.

Wiggins crashed out of the 2011 Tour with a broken collarbone and said he felt “lucky” he has been trouble-free this year.

Uncertainties remain and two weeks is a long time. But all signs read green for Wiggins: Sky is one of the strongest teams; it has launched a methodical approach to winning; the route this year is heavily weighted on timetrials which are his specialty.

And with two-time Tour champion Alberto Contador out serving a doping ban, and 2010 winner Andy Schleck out injured, that’s two fewer would-be challengers.

Evans sensed he’s in for a challenge from Sky. “With Wiggins on a team like that, it’s going to be difficult,” the 35-year-old BMC team leader said in French.

Serena wins fifth Wimbledon • Williams ends her drought in majors with 14th career title

By Howard Fendrich The Associated Press

WIMBLEDON, England — For Serena Williams, the low point came in early 2011, when she spent hours lying around her home, overwhelmed by a depressing series of health scares that sent her to the hospital repeatedly and kept her away from tennis for 10 months.

The high point came Saturday on Centre Court at Wimbledon, when Williams dropped down to the grass, hands covering her face. She was all the way back, a Grand Slam champion yet again.

Her serve as good as there is, her grit as good as ever, Williams was dominant at the start and finish, beating Agnieszka Radwanska of Poland 6-1, 5-7, 6-2 to win a fifth championship at the All England Club and 14th major title overall, ending a two-year drought.

“I just remember, I was on the couch and I didn’t leave the whole day, for two days. I was just over it. I was praying, like, ‘I can’t take any more. I’ve endured enough. Let me be able to get through this,’” recalled Williams, a former No. 1 whose ranking slid to 175th after a fourth-round loss at the All England Club last year, her second tournament back.

“Coming here and winning today is amazing,” she said.

“It’s been an unbelievable journey for me.”

Certainly has.

That’s why tears flowed during the on-court trophy ceremony. And why Williams squeezed tight during postvictory hugs with her parents and older sister Venus, who has five Wimbledon titles of her own — meaning that one pair of siblings who learned to play tennis on public courts in Compton, Calif., now accounts for 10 of the past 13 singles trophies. They added their fifth Wimbledon doubles championship Saturday night, teaming to beat Andrea Hlavackova and Lucie Hradecka of the Czech Republic 7-5, 6-4.

A few days after winning Wimbledon in 2010, Serena Williams cut both feet on broken glass while leaving a restaurant in Germany. She needed two operations on her right foot. Then she got blood clots in her lungs, for which she

Serena Williams reacts after defeating Agnieszka Radwanska to win the women’s final at the All England Lawn Tennis Championships at Wimbledon, England, on Saturday.

Murray tries for British breakthrough in men’s final against Federer WIMBLEDON, England — The Brits know how to stage a coronation, and they’ll do so today for either regal Roger Federer or one of their own, Andy Murray.

Queen Elizabeth II has another commitment, but the former Kate Middleton and the British prime minister will be on hand to see who reigns at Wimbledon.

Plenty of history will be written in the men’s final at tennis’ most tradition-rich tournament. Federer can add to his record 16 Grand Slam championships, and he would tie a record by winning Wimbledon for a seventh time. He also would claim the ATP’s top ranking for the first time since June 2010, and match Pete Sampras’ record of 286 weeks at No. 1.

“There’s a lot on the line for me,” Federer said.

Murray, meanwhile, is merely trying to become the first British man to win a Grand Slam title since Fred Perry took Wimbledon and the U.S. Championships in 1936.

“It has been a great tournament so far,” Murray said. “I’ve just got to try to keep it together for the final.”

Britain’s abuzz. Even without the queen, the Royal Box is certain to be packed, along with the rest of Centre Court. Tickets are going for more than 2,600 pounds ($4,000).

needed to inject herself with a blood thinner. Those shots led to a pool of blood gathering under her stomach’s skin, requiring another procedure.

“That made her realize where her life was, really, and where she really belonged and that she really loved the game,” said Williams’ mother, Oracene Price. “You never appreciate anything until you almost lose it.”

Against Radwanska, who was trying to be the first Polish Grand Slam singles champion, Williams was streaky at times, but also superb. She won the first five games and the last five. She compiled a

58-13 landslide of winners.

She swatted 17 aces, including four at 114 mph, 107 mph, 115 mph, 111 mph in one marvelous game to pull even at 2-all in the third set. That was part of a momentum-swinging run when Williams claimed 15 of 18 points, and that quartet of aces raised her total for the fortnight to a tournamentrecord 102, surpassing her own mark of 89 in 2010; it’s also more than the top number for any man this year at Wimbledon.

“So many aces,” said Radwanska, whose two-week total was 16, “and I couldn’t do much about it.”

Blind Continued from D1 “I don’t necessarily like it when people say, ‘Oh, it’s so great you do that.’ I get as much out of it as they do.”

During the swim and the run, the pairs are connected by bungeelike cords, typically wrapped around each other’s waist (occasionally, they are attached by the wrist).

For the bike portion, they ride a tandem — a specially modeled dual-seat cycle, sighted guide in front, legs pedaling in synchrony.

When guiding, the minutest of details must be tended to. The night before the race, shoelaces need tying, goggles need taping, tethers need adjusting to a manageable length. Too short, and rhythm can be disrupted. Too long, and the blind swimmer cannot feel the guide’s directional tugs.

The number of steps from the river to the road might be counted. Succinct communication calls, like a coach’s playbook, are crucial for the swimming and cycling portions, when hearing can be difficult.

When guide Sameh Mikhail met his athlete, Terry Gardner, for the first time in 2010, it took them nearly two hours of practice just to be able to balance on the tandem bike.

The runs involve near-continual dialogue: alerts about the next turn, dip, hill, curb and grate, along with the occasional pep talk. Mikhail said Gardner even liked him to keep a running count of every person they passed.

Understandably, the guides need to be in top triathlon shape to be able to race with

the athlete and also adapt to conflicts that almost always arise.

The first time Steve Zink ever guided, their tandem bike’s rear derailleur broke halfway down the West Side Highway. Unable to fix it and unwilling to give up, Zink and his partner decided to run the rest of the way, carrying the bike a good 10 miles, in just their socks.

“He’s behind me holding onto the bike and I’m guiding him and guiding the bike,” Zink said. “We were coasting down hills. We developed a system on the spot to sort of skateboard along when it’s flat.

“It was improvisational,” he added. “A lot of these people are totally capable; they just need your help.”

Gaynor, 28, said she had raced in more than 50 triathlons individually since high school but preferred only guiding now. Her partners vary.

In May, Gaynor noticed a Facebook group for blind triathletes and posted a message inquiring if any needed

a guide for the New York City Triathlon. Jan Ditchfield — the founder of an Ontario-based organization called Won With One, the only self-financed program for blind and visually impaired triathletes in Canada — responded.

Ditchfield connected Gaynor with Leona Emberson, whom she had never met before Friday, when Emberson arrived and the two practiced a bit in Central Park.

The crash-course training, Gaynor said, is part of the challenge.

“I think of myself as equipment,” Gaynor said. “These are competent, capable people, and they don’t want to have their hands held unless they need to. They wouldn’t be racing with me unless they needed to have a guide. So I want to respect the amount of independence that they want, but also give as much as help as they need.”

A few organizations, including Won With One, work with volunteer guides and pair them with athletes based on size, age and ability (most rac-

There had been a moment, ever so brief, when it appeared Williams might let Saturday’s match slip away. After she breezed through the first set on a day when the wind whipped and the temperature was in the mid-50s, rain arrived, causing a delay of about 20 minutes between sets.

Radwanska, who has been fighting a respiratory illness and blew her nose at a changeover, quickly fell behind 3-1 in the second set. Right there is where she made a stand.

Williams was playing in her 18th major final; Radwanska in her first. Actually, she’d never won a match beyond the fourth round at a Grand Slam tournament until this week. So she acknowledged being “a little bit nervous in the beginning.”

But the interruption let her “cool down a little bit,” explained Radwanska, who would have risen to No. 1 in the rankings by beating Williams but instead will be No. 2, behind Victoria Azarenka.

“When I was going on the court the second time, I just felt like a normal match. Didn’t seem like a final anymore, so there was not that much pressure.”

Radwanska played her usual steady game, and Williams began making more and more errors. A string of mistakes — swinging volley into the net, double-fault, backhand long, backhand into the net — let Radwanska break to even the match at one set apiece. What appeared to be a rather drab final, bereft of any drama, suddenly became interesting.

es enforce same-gender pairings). The athlete establishes the pace.

John Korff, the race’s owner, said the New York City Triathlon had averaged four to eight blind athletes each year since 2002. On Korff’s desk in his office is a framed photograph of Gaynor finishing in 2008 with Kim Borowicz, who has tears streaming down her cheeks.

“The guide is giving that person the gift of the triathlon,” Korff said. “This is their sport, but they can’t do it alone.”

For 11 months of the year, Mikhail, 33, trains and races individually. But, after meeting Gardner, Mikhail said as long as Gardner still wanted to do it, he would never run the New York City Triathlon alone again.

“It’s Terry’s,” Mikhail said.

“I feel like that’s his focus of the year. I would never be able to be selfish enough to be like, ‘OK, it’s about me now.’ There’s so much more to this now that running it by myself would feel essentially empty.”

If all goes well, six blind athletes will finish today, and their “eyes” will detach and walk away. The guides are not technically registered, nor are they recorded as finishers. The blind athletes receive most of the hugs and the handshakes.

The guides, those who steer, steady, tug, coach and motivate, only share in the internal reward.

“It’s their race,” Gaynor said.

“If I can just help a person have their best possible race, so that they can cross the finish line feeling like they accomplished something, like the way I have felt when I’ve finished races, then that’s awesome.”

Continued from D1 The 33-year-old Youkilis homered and had four RBIs in his home-field debut. He hit a game-winning, 10thinning single in his second home game, smacked a goahead homer to lead a sweep of the Texas Rangers the next day and then had another RBI single and stellar defensive play Friday night as Chicago won its fourth straight by beating Toronto.

Since Youkilis joined the White Sox in a trade for Brent Lillibridge, Zach Stewart and cash considerations last month, Chicago has gone 8-3 in his first 11 games before Saturday.

Youkilis helped the Red Sox win World Series championships in 2004 and 2007, but he started slowly this season and spent much of May on the disabled list with a sore back.

Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine questioned Youkilis’ commitment to the game during a television interview early in the season and later apologized to him a day later.

Youkilis batted just .233 with four homers and 14 RBIs in 146 at-bats for the Red Sox in 2012 and the emergence of Will Middlebrooks made him expendable.

The Boston experience — which featured an emotional standing ovation on his final day with the Red Sox — is over, Youkilis likes to say.

He’s already given the White Sox a much needed lift with both his bat and his glove at third base, where projected starter Brent Morel has been sidelined a good portion of the season by back problems. Veteran Orlando Hudson was acquired but couldn’t get comfortable at the position after years as a second baseman.

Youkilis has already made several sparkling plays at third, coming in barehanded or backing up and making a nice stop.

“Those plays he’s making at third, there’s none of those that he hasn’t made,” said Chicago manager Robin Ventura, who should know a thing or two about the position since he won six Gold Gloves there.

Youkilis, a Gold Glove winner himself at first base in 2007, gives the White Sox versatility in the field and a No. 2 hitter who can both get on base, has power, can drive in runs and is known

Blazers Continued from D1 Additionally, the Blazers have led the Western Conference in average home attendance for the past four seasons.

“We have an excellent general manager in place in Neil Olshey, so I feel the team is on solid ground and headed in the right direction,” Miller said in a statement released by the team. “Off the court, business is great. The Rose Garden is packed every night and the passion of Trail Blazers fans has never been better.”

On Twitter, Blazers owner

for grinding out at-bats.

“He has an energy he brings. The competitiveness he has. It’s infectious and it’s a good thing for our guys to see and a guy who has been a winner,” Ventura said.

“He doesn’t stand around and tell everybody about it.

He leads by example.”

Blue Jays manager John Farrell had plenty of time to see Youkilis in the AL East and said the change has obviously been beneficial. At least at the outset.

“A very tough at-bat every time he comes to the plate.

That’s a guy that’s never going to give an at-bat away. A strong competitor, and when he’s right offensively, he’s got extra-base power and the ability to hit good pitching,” Farrell said.

“The reports that we have since the trade, he’s played with a lot of energy.

A change of scenery, in this case, has injected him with some life.”

The White Sox were a season-best nine games over .500 entering Saturday.

Youkilis has been inserted into a lineup that already had All-Stars in Adam Dunn and Paul Konerko batting third and fourth and two other players having strong seasons in Alex Rios and A.J. Pierzynski.

“He’s just doing what he’s always done, just doing it in a different uniform,” Konerko said of Youkilis.

Rangers manager Ron Washington sees the same thing.

“Number one, that lineup was already tough. ... They were already dangerous.

What he brings is a winning piece,” Washington said.

“He’s a tough cookie, man. ... This guy has always won.

He can play.”

Coming to a new team after eight years-plus in a baseball-crazy city such as Boston has not been a difficult transition. Youkilis already knew Dunn and pitcher Jake Peavy from playing in the World Baseball Classic.

Making it all the more comfortable is that Youkilis doesn’t have to check and see if his name will be in the lineup when he comes to the park.

“I’ve been an everyday player my whole life, so I don’t think it’s any different to me. It’s a great thing. ...

Robin’s been great in talking to me about where I’m going to play and where I’m going to hit and all that stuff. It’s been an awesome experience so far.”

Paul Allen said it was “sad to see Larry Miller leave” for another job and that a search for his replacement is under way.

Miller came to the Blazers from Nike’s Jordan Brand, and The Oregonian reported Saturday morning that he is leaving the Blazers to return to the company.

Miller had two years left on his contract with the Blazers.

The Blazers said Olshey will handle basketball operations in Miller’s absence and Sarah Mensah, the team’s chief operating officer, will be in charge of business operations.

G O LF R O U N D U P

Korean takes big lead with one round to go at U.S. Women’s Open • Na Yeon Choi holds a six-shot advantage after shooting a 65 Th e Associated Press KOHLER, Wis. — Na Yeon Choi was just a kid when Se Ri Pak won the U.S. Women’s Open at Blackwolf Run in 1998.

Today, Choi is living proof that Pak’s landmark victory 14 years ago really did have the power to inspire girls in South Korea to try to make it in professional golf.

And after posting one of the best rounds in Open history, Choi is poised to repeat Pak’s feat in the same event at the same course.

Choi shot a 7-under 65 on Saturday in the third round at Blackwolf Run, taking control of the tournament.

“I couldn’t believe how I got eight birdies today,” Choi said.

“But I did. And I’m very happy, and I’m very satisfied and I’m very excited.”

The fifth-ranked South Korean star’s remarkable round put her at 8 under for the tournament, giving her a six-stroke lead over fellow South Korean Amy Yang. Only four players ever have posted a lower round in the Open, and the 65 tied the lowest third-round score in the event’s history.

As Choi surged despite windy conditions, Michelle Wie faded, shooting a 6-over 78 to fall to 2 over. Wie shot a 66 in the second round and came into the day a stroke behind second-round leader Suzann Pettersen.

“It was a lot of fun being in contention,” Wie said. “I’m still not out of it. Don’t count me out just yet.”

Pettersen also shot 78 on Saturday and slid to 1 over, but still hoped to get back into contention.

“You know what, there’s birdies out there,” she said. “I think the wind is going to be a little bit less tomorrow from what I’ve seen. So if you get off to a hot start, hopefully put a number down early in the clubhouse.

Who knows?”

Yang had a 69. Choi and Yang were the only players to break 70 in the round.

“I’m just going to keep being patient tomorrow, try to do my best,” Yang said.

Lexi Thompson, Mika Miyazato and Sandra Gal were tied for third at 1 under. The 17-yearold Thompson had a 72, Miyazato shot 73, and Gal had a 74.

Julie Jacobson / The Associated Press

Na Yeon Choi tees off on the seventh hole during the third round of the U.S. Women’s Open golf tournament on Saturday in Kohler, Wis.

“Seven under at an Open is pretty good, I would say,” Thompson said about Choi’s round. “So she’s leading by a good amount, but I’m still going to go for it.”

Top-ranked Yani Tseng struggled, shooting a 78 and fading to 8 over.

Tseng said she had trouble feeling comfortable with her club selection at times as she tried to deal with the wind and tough pin placements.

And Tseng said she didn’t see too many opportunities for low scores out there, adding, “Except Na Yeon.”

Choi has five career LPGA Tour victories. She tied for second in the 2010 U.S. Women’s Open.

And she credits Pak for helping to inspire those accomplishments.

Choi recalls watching the 1998 Open on television. At the time, she said she already was thinking about trying to make it as a golfer in South Korea — but when Pak won, her conceptions of what might be possible changed dramatically.

“I changed my goal: ‘I have to go to the LPGA Tour and I want to win on the LPGA Tour,’” Choi said.

And given the source of her inspiration, winning at Blackwolf

Run would be extra special.

Choi came into Saturday at 1 under for the tournament and started posting low numbers right away.

She had only 26 putts, and is optimistic she’ll be able to continue putting well.

“I have a good feeling about my putting speed and putting strokes,” Choi said. “So I hope to get good results tomorrow.”

Choi had four birdies on the front nine, including back-toback birdies to start the round.

She made a 20-foot putt to birdie No. 7.

Then Choi birdied the first three holes on the back nine, draining a birdie putt on the 12th hole to go to 7 under on the day.

Choi’s only slip-up of the day was a three-putt on the 13th, her only bogey of the day. Choi then made a 15-foot putt to birdie the par-3 17th, going back to 7 under for the day and 8 under for the tournament.

Also on Saturday: Webb Simpson grabs lead WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. — U.S. Open champion Webb Simpson shot a 5-under 65 to take a two-stroke lead into the final round of the PGA Tour’s Greenbrier Classic. Simpson had his second straight bogeyfree round to reach 14 under on The Greenbrier Resort’s Old

White TPC course. Last year in the event, he briefly led entering the final nine holes, but faded to a tie for ninth. Troy Kelly was second after a 62. He had hip-replacement surgery in September 2010 after being diagnosed with arthritis. Rookie Charlie Beljan, J.B. Holmes and Ken Duke were 11 under. Beljan had a 67, Holmes a 66 and Duke a 65.

Kite, Bryant tied at First Tee Open PEBBLE BEACH, Calif.

— Tom Kite shot a 3-under 69 at Pebble Beach for a share of the lead with Brad Bryant after the second round of the Champions Tour’s First Tee Open. Bryant, winless since the 2007 U.S. Senior Open, had a 67 at Del Monte to match Kite at 8 under. Bobby Clampett, Peter Senior and Mark McNulty were tied for third at 5 under. Clampett had a 67, Senior shot a 70 and McNulty a 71 — all at Pebble Beach.

Englishman leads French Open SAINT-QUENTIN-EN-YVELINES, France — England’s David Howell shot a 4-under 67 for a share of the lead with Anders Hansen of Denmark after the third round of the European Tour’s French Open. Hansen had a 69 to match Howell at 6 under on Le Golf National’s Albatross Course. South Africa’s George Coetzee was a stroke back after a 70.

Continued from D1 Whitcomb, who grew up playing Prineville G&CC and still owns land adjacent to the course, has been instrumental in luring more professionals (now 25, and there are more on a waiting list) to the tournament. Gary Davis, the head pro at Shadow Hills Country Club near Eugene, comes back to his hometown of Prineville each year to run the tournament. Prineville retiree Tom MacDonald, a longtime member of PG&CC, organizes the event and wrangles up sponsorships.

And all that volunteer help does not hurt either.

It all began to come together in 2008, when those who loved the tournament decided that it had withered enough.

“Between Tom MacDonald, myself and Brian Whitcomb, we just really wanted to bring it back to (a respectable) level,” says Davis. “The fact that the members do all the work here, it’s just unbelievable. They’ve just taken pride in it.”

Stepping on the picturesque strip of foothills that has been the site of the course since 1949 is like stepping back in time. The club membership is friendly and homespun, and it operates on a nearly all-volunteer staff.

Still, the layout makes for a quality round, with wicked tabletop greens that often confound even the best golfers in the region.

“This place is pretty special for all of us,” says Davis, who got his start in golf as a teenager working at Prineville G&CC. The Prineville Invitational started in 1955 as the Hudspeth Invitational, named after the tournament’s main benefactor, Prineville lumber magnate Fred Hudspeth (who died in 1992).

It grew steadily. Each year, professionals and amateurs alike would travel from around the Northwest for what turned out to be a party on a large scale. At the tournament’s peak, the winner would earn about $9,000 (the winner today will make about $2,000), says 86-year-old Bill Mulflur, a retired Oregon golf writer who has been involved with the tournament as either a journalist or a participant since the 1960s.

Mulflur, 86, considers the Prineville Invitational among his favorite tournaments and still returns each year as a volunteer and competitor.

“It was HUGE,” says Mulflur, adding that a $50,000 Calcutta (a kind of pool in which golfers and bettors alike can make big money) drew golfers from all corners of the Northwest. “A guy could make a lot of money.”

The tournament is not quite as popular today as it was in those days, when it was a two-day event that would run from dawn to dusk each day using a triple shotgun format.

Competition on the Northwest’s tournament schedule and today’s demands on the time of would-be participants — not to mention a less-favorable betting culture — makes it nearly impossible to capture the tournament’s heyday again, Whitcomb says.

“The ambience that was just a magical thing for a lot of years is trying to be replicated, but on a different playing field than it was 40 years ago,” Whitcomb says.

Still, the atmosphere of today’s Prineville Invitational resembles Hudspeth’s tournament more than it has in years.

“Uncle Fred did everything to make this one of the premier pro-ams in the Pacific Northwest.

Everybody came,” says Davis, who is Hudspeth’s nephew. “We just kind of brought back the spirit of the Hudspeth Invitational.”

The Prineville Invitational might never become a truly elite event in the Northwest ever again. But it doesn’t need to be to be successful.

The tournament is once again a labor of love for Prineville Golf & Country Club’s membership, and even for those for whom the event has made a lasting imprint on their memories.

And that is probably enough.

Higher education is important

W

ho among us does not count in the ranks of our treasured friends those who have an abiding appreciation for the cinematic wisdom of “Animal House”?

And in that renaissance work, who does not comprehend the most meaningful scene?

We all have our favorites, of course, but the scene with true-life value catches the motto of Emil Faber, the founder of Faber College.

“Knowledge is Good” is pure inspiration.

What gives that line such longevity and poignancy is that it is the quintessential comedic counterpoint of the movie, while being the indisputable reality of life.

How often do you hear others — or yourself — saying, if it weren’t so true, it would be funny? Far from being funny, knowledge — or education — is good. In fact, it is very good.

And people and places that support it are better than good.

They are inspired and, given the long arc of education, not for any immediate or personal benefit.

They are dedicated to future generations — one of the most selfless and noble instincts. Yet, there are people who have questions about the expansion of higher education here.

They were asked more than a decade ago when the extension of higher education in Central Oregon in some form was being debated. And today, with a Cascades branch of Oregon State University firmly established in Bend and on the verge of substantial expansion, they are, surprisingly, still being whispered by some.

A letter came across my desk a week or so ago that touched on one of the criticisms heard a decade ago.

The writer was aghast that The Bulletin would encourage the expansion of an institution that could bring thousands of students to Bend.

This is an echo, however faint, of the growth accusation leveled years ago. Those of us, the accusation goes, who have been so supportive of higher education simply are growth proponents who would trash what once was a quaint small town.

We do this either out of profit or because we are delusional.

In fact, with or without a university, Bend has been growing for a long time. The question is not growth, or no growth. It is what kind of growth.

Will an expanded university and thousands of students be disruptive to the old order?

Of course it will be, and it is to be welcomed, just as the changing nature of recreation, the development of new retail centers, the expansion of major health care facilities and a diversified work environment have been.

There are many cities and regions around Oregon and the nation that have stood pat, clinging to a reverie.

How are they faring these days?

Another concern raised at the conception of the branch that has a few lingering stalwarts is that the expansion of Oregon State University will be detrimental to Central Oregon Community College.

This was a concern to be respected, given all that institution meant to Central Oregon long before expanded higher education was on the horizon.

The love and loyalty of local citizens was not — nor is it today — something to be toyed with. Nor has it been.

Perhaps it is just coincidence, but COCC and the OSU branch are flourishing today, individually and together. Citizens not too long ago gave COCC the ultimate vote of confidence: a substantial bond to construct new and advanced facilities in Central Oregon.

Similarly, the state Legislature in 2011 authorized capital construction bonds for new facilities, while private donors recently exceeded a fundraising campaign by 50 percent.

And students are showing up in droves at the doors of both institutions. How all of this could be a drawback to Central Oregon’s future is hard to fathom.

Certainly, higher education brings its own challenges. What endeavor doesn’t?

But for all its challenges, Emil Faber had it right: “Knowledge is Good.”

‘YOU ARE NOT SPECIAL’ • Sure, parents want their kids to be exceptional — but what does that mean, and what’s wrong with being ordinary?

By Alina Tugend New York Times News Service

I

’ve been thinking a lot about the ordinary and extraordinary lately. All year, my sons’ school

newsletters were filled with stories about students winning prizes for university-level scientific research, stellar musical accomplishments and statewide athletic laurels. I wonder if there is any room for the ordinary any more … … for the child or teenager — or adult — who enjoys a pickup basketball game but is far from Olympic material, who will be a good citizen but won’t set the world on fire.

We hold so dearly onto the idea that we should all aspire to being remarkable that when David McCullough Jr., an English teacher, told graduatCOMMENTARY ing seniors at Wellesley High School in Massachusetts recently, “You are not special. You are not exceptional,” the speech went viral.

“In our unspoken but not so subtle Darwinian competition with one another — which springs, I think, from our fear of our own insignificance, a subset of our dread of mortality — we have of late, we Americans, to our detriment, come to love accolades more than genuine achievement,” he told the students and parents. “We have come to see them as the point — and we’re happy to compromise standards, or ignore reality, if we suspect that’s the quickest way, or only way, to have something to put on the mantelpiece, something to pose with, crow about, something with which to leverage ourselves into a better spot on the social totem pole.”

I understand that McCullough, son of the Pulitzer Prize-winning historian, is telling these high school seniors that the world might not embrace them as unconditionally as their parents have. That just because they’ve been told they’re amazing doesn’t mean that they are. That they have to do something to prove themselves, not just accept compliments and trophies.

So where did this intense need to be exceptional come from?

Madeline Levine, a psychologist, said that for baby boomers, “the notion of being special is in our blood.” She added: “How could our children be anything but? And future generations kept building on that.”

More recently, parents seem to be increasingly anxious that there just isn’t going to be enough — enough room at good colleges or graduate schools or the top companies — for even the straight-A, piano-playing quarterback.

Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s teacher evaluations skimp on student progress

S

tudent progress will account for only one-third of teacher evaluations in Oregon this year, and student test scores donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to be included.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re reminded of the K-12 achievement compacts, in which only two academic measures â&#x20AC;&#x201D; third-grade reading and math â&#x20AC;&#x201D; were included among dozens of categories.

It seems Oregon likes to talk about excellence, but educators are loath to use concrete measures of academic achievement to evaluate it.

The state Board of Education adopted guidelines last week for teacher and administrator evaluations, according to the Associated Press, although local districts will have some flexibility within the guidelines.

Rather than focus primarily on student progress, the state decided to identify three areas for evaluation, the AP reported: â&#x20AC;˘ Professional Practice will look at planning and delivery of lessons through classroom observation, lesson plans and curriculum. â&#x20AC;˘ Professional Responsibility will examine relations with parents and with the school community, plus efforts at professional development. â&#x20AC;˘ Student Learning and Growth will include at least two ways to measure student performance.

Test scores could be included here, but the state doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t require it.

That means test scores can be at

most one-half of the student progress section, which is itself only one-third of the full evaluation.

That makes test scores no more than one-sixth of the basis for judging a teacherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s effectiveness.

The state is seeking a waiver from federal No Child Left Behind requirements, and that means it must establish a teacher evaluation system that considers student progress.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been a controversial issue across the country, with some states giving student test scores a prominent place. Teacher unions have resisted, arguing the scores donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fully reflect a teacherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s effectiveness.

Several Central Oregon school districts are working with the nonprofit Chalkboard Project to devise a so-called value-added model that adjusts for factors beyond the teacherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s control. Many also argue that standardized tests donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t properly reflect student progress.

We have no argument with the notion behind Chalkboardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s efforts, but it canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t become an excuse to avoid a focus on student achievement in evaluating teachers. Onesixth isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t enough attention for the primary purpose of education. As for the tests, if they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do the job, then we need new ones. Achievement is measurable.

Jail space rental a good short-term solution

D

eschutes County residents made their feelings clear in May 2010. A new $45-million county jail was not to be.

The county has been able to make do with the space it has in the intervening two years, but now it must find additional room if it is to avoid freeing criminals weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d all rather have off the street.

While Sheriff Larry Blanton has been renting jail space from Jefferson County on an as-needed basis, the county commission entered into a more formal agreement with Jefferson County earlier this week. For about $63 per bed per day, it will rent 10 beds from Jefferson County for the next year.

On one level, the agreement is a bargain. The going rate for jail space has been about $76 per bed per day, and the county will save money on the longer-term arrangement.

But simply paying for a bed and meals does not end Deschutes Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expense, no matter where prisoners are housed. Blanton says that such things as medical care and transportation help drive the

cost up to an average of $100 per inmate per day, or nearly $40 more than the cost of room and board.

The county must continue to pay those bills no matter where its prisoners live.

The rental agreement will give the county time to begin working on a solution to its space problem.

A request to nearly double the size of the current jail, which is what the county hoped to do in 2010, is unlikely, Blanton says. Rather, he and other officials will work together to find a more affordable solution to the space problem.

Meanwhile, Jefferson Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s jail beds will fill the bill. Blanton tries to house prisoners in Madras who are serving sentences because they need to be moved from jail to court and back less often, and he will continue to do so. He has money set aside for rent, so there should be no need for additional money on that account.

Renting jail space is a stop-gap measure, to be sure. Still, it is better than turning prisoners loose simply to free up space in the county jail.

My Nickelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Worth Health reform is good As a family physician, I have struggled to help my patients get necessary health services. But with the Supreme Court ruling upholding the health care reform law, my patients and millions of Americans have improved access to health care.

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act provides insurance security for everyone. No longer will health care access be determined by how much you earn, where you live or what you look like.

Under the law, insurance companies are required to use more of your premium on insurance benefits instead of salaries and administrative costs. Insurers must cover everyone, regardless of pre-existing conditions, and are no longer able to impose yearly or lifetime caps for needed services. Adult children can stay on parentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; insurance plans until they turn 26. Preventive care is available to all Americans without co-pay, allowing health care providers to detect illnesses before significant harm is done. The law expands access to Medicaid for our nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s poorest citizens and strengthens Medicare to protect seniors.

With the Supreme Courtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ruling, now we can put patients ahead of politics and Americans can realize all the benefits of health care reform.

Taxed for doing nothing Chief Justice John Roberts casts the approving single vote for the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obamacareâ&#x20AC;? mandate. So now this chief justice states that our Congress can tax the citizens for doing â&#x20AC;&#x201D; nothing! This may open the taxa-

tion floodgates, such as comments made like, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Next weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be taxed for not eating broccoli.â&#x20AC;? Isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t this why we booted out the British 230 years ago?

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t allow platform We just spent the last couple of days bank fishing below the John Day dam on the Columbia River.

This letter is not to complain about the ridiculous number of Indian gill nets in the river, nor is it to complain about the wanton waste of non-targeted fish (sturgeon, catfish, etc.) caught, killed and thrown back into the river from said nets. It is also not to complain about the excessive number of fishing platforms that have been and are being built all along the riverbank, thereby leaving virtually no place for the sportsman to access the riverbank to fish.

No, this letter is to complain about the fishing platform the Indians were allowed to build above the â&#x20AC;&#x153;no fishing above this pointâ&#x20AC;? deadline below the dam, right where the fish enter the fish ladder. Sportsmen are not allowed to fish above the deadline, yet the Indians not only net from, but also fish with rod and reel from the platform.

I am not debating the tribal treaty issue â&#x20AC;&#x201D; that is another toothache of its own â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but the placement and use of this platform right next to the fish ladder should never have been allowed. It should be illegal, it is definitely unethical and they should be required to cease using it and remove it. I doubt that will ever happen.

Health law helps many One way the effectiveness of government can be evaluated is based on how well it serves its youngest and oldest citizens. Therefore, a look at President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, often referred to as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obamacare,â&#x20AC;? is in order.

In evaluating the pros and cons of the act, we must notice how our lives are affected by these reforms.

Our family has experienced positive impacts. One example is the help provided for our diabetic 19-yearold grandson, living on his own, working his way through college with a minimum-wage job. Under â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obamacare,â&#x20AC;? he is now covered by his dadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s insurance until he reaches the age of 26.

There is also the family member stricken with cancer in her mid-30s.

She faced being denied insurance coverage if she changed from her stressful job due to a pre-existing medical condition. Under the law, this unfortunate situation is now addressed and prevented.

On the other end of the spectrum, we experienced the value of phasing out the â&#x20AC;&#x153;doughnut hole,â&#x20AC;? a gap in Medicare prescription benefits, that cost our elderly loved one much money unnecessarily. Fortunately her spouse will not have to face the same issue if this portion of the health care reform program is implemented. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Obamacareâ&#x20AC;? is not a perfect plan, but it opens a dialogue that needs to happen as escalating health and insurance costs surpass what most people can afford. Maybe it would be wise not to throw the baby (or grandma) out with the bath water just yet.

Taking one for the country with health care ruling I

n my mind, there are two lessons from the Supreme Courtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 5-4 decision to support President Barack Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s health care plan: 1) how starved the country is for leadership that puts the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interest before partisan politics, which is exactly what Chief Justice John Roberts did; and 2) the virtue of audacity in politics and thinking big. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s look at both.

It was not surprising to hear liberals extolling the legal creativity and courage of Roberts in finding a way to greenlight Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. But there is something deeper reflected in that praise, and it even touched some conservatives. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the feeling that it has been so long since a national leader ripped up the polls and not only acted out of political character but did so truly for the good of the country â&#x20AC;&#x201D; as Roberts seemingly did.

I know that this was a complex legal decision. But I think it was inspired by a simple noble leadership impulse at

a critical juncture in our history â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to preserve the legitimacy and integrity of the Supreme Court as being above politics. We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always describe this kind of leadership, but we know it when we see it and so many Americans appreciate it.

Why do we all jump up and applaud at NBA or NFL games when they introduce wounded Iraq or Afghan war veterans in the stands? Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s because the U.S. military embodies everything we find missing today in our hyperpartisan public life. The military has become, as the Harvard philosopher Michael Sandel once put it, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the last repository of civic idealism and sacrifice for the sake of the common good.â&#x20AC;?

Indeed, I found myself applauding for Roberts the same way I did for Al Gore when he gracefully bowed to the will of the Supreme Court in the 2000 election and the same way I do for those wounded warriors â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and for the same reason: They each, in their own way, took one for the country.

THOMAS FRIEDMAN

To put it another way, Roberts undertook an act of statesmanship for the national good by being willing to anger his own â&#x20AC;&#x153;constituency.â&#x20AC;? But he also did what judges should do: leave the big political questions to the politicians. The equivalent act of statesmanship on the part of our politicians now would be doing what Roberts deferred to them as their responsibility: Decide the big, hard questions, with compromises, for the national good. Otherwise, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doomed to a tug of war on the deck of the Titanic.

I see no sign of Mitt Romney being ready for such a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Roberts moment.â&#x20AC;?

I still have hope for Obama. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s entitled to a victory lap for daring to go big â&#x20AC;&#x201D; ignoring his advisers â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to bring

health care to the whole country. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a huge achievement.

But he needs to go just as big on the economy if he wants the law to be something we can actually afford.

That requires economic growth. Yet Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s campaign has been all smallball wedge issues, trying to satisfy enough micro-constituencies to get 50.1 percent of the vote.

People are hungry for a big plan from the president to fix the economy, one that will bite and challenge both parties at the scale we need, fairly share the burdens and wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just be about â&#x20AC;&#x153;balancing the budget,â&#x20AC;? but about making America great again.

The opportunity for such a plan is hiding in plain sight.

Our newfound natural gas bounty can give us long-term access to cheap, cleaner energy and, combined with advances in robotics and software, is already bringing blue-collar manufacturing back to America. Web-enabled cellphones and tablets are creating

vast new possibilities to bring highquality, low-cost education to every community college and public school.

Cloud computing is giving anyone with a creative spark cheap, powerful tools to start a company with very little money. And dramatically low interest rates mean we can borrow to build new infrastructure.

If we can just get a few big things right today â&#x20AC;&#x201D; a Simpson-Bowles-like grand bargain on spending and tax reform that unleashes entrepreneurship, a deal on immigration that allows the most energetic and smartest immigrants to enrich our country and a plan on energy that allows us to tap all these new sources in environmentally safe ways â&#x20AC;&#x201D; no one could touch us as a country. Connect the dots for people, Mr. President â&#x20AC;&#x201D; be the guy taking the risk to offer that big plan for American renewal, and Romney will never be able to touch you. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Thomas Friedman is a columnist for The New York Times.

Bad start for health care plan U

ntil last week, Chief Justice John Roberts was vilified as the leader of a conservative judicial cabal poised to destroy the Obama presidency by overturning the federal takeover of health care.

But with his unexpected affirmation, Roberts suddenly was lauded as the new Earl Warren — an “evolving” conservative who at last saw the logic of liberal big government.

Among our elites — journalists, pundits and academics — liberal Supreme Court justices are always deemed “open-minded,” even as they are expected to vote in absolute lockstep liberal fashion. In contrast, a conservative justice is written off as reactionary or blatantly partisan when he likewise predictably follows his own orthodoxy — pressures that may well have affected Roberts if reports of an 11th-hour switch in his vote are true.

No surprise, then, that a surreal discussion followed the recent ruling of the high court. Our legal establishment expected that the four liberal judges would not deviate one iota in their affirmation of the health-care law, even as it hoped that a conservative or two would show judicial character by joining the liberals.

Democrats like activist federal courts to overturn — in matters of gay marriage, abortion, affirmative action and illegal immigration — ballot propositions and major-

VICTOR DAVIS HANSON ity votes of legislatures fostered by supposedly illiberal and unsophisticated voters. But on health care, liberals — led by the president — made the argument that a wrongly activist Supreme Court should not dare to tamper with what an elected Congress had wrought.

President Barack Obama was incoherent in his commentary on the Supreme Court. Before the Roberts ruling, when most were betting that the president’s health care plan would be overturned — especially given the poor performance of Solicitor General Donald Verrilli in arguing the government’s case before the court — Obama was angry at the thought of such judicial activism. In a manner that did not reflect much knowledge of either the Constitution or the history of the republic, he thundered, “Ultimately, I’m confident that the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress.”

Of course, the Supreme Court’s overturning of a law is not extraor-

dinary or unprecedented. And the president’s bill did not pass by a “strong majority,” but barely squeaked through the House by seven votes. What was “unprecedented” was a presidential shot across the bow of the Supreme Court on the eve of a critical decision — especially given the fact that Obama would soon welcome the court’s activism in overturning most of a duly-passed Arizona immigration law that sought to enforce federal statutes.

To get the health care bill passed in the first place, the Obama administration swore that it was a mandate and not a tax raise, which would have contradicted his campaign pledge not to hike taxes on the middle class.

Yet Verrilli worried that a mandate would be declared unconstitutional, so he argued in the chambers of the court that it was a tax — and a majority of justices agreed.

But then the Obama administration flipped again at the thought of raising taxes on the middle class and is now calling the mandate/tax a “penalty” — thanking the court for its wisdom while rebuking the means by which it came to it.

Conservatives have come to distrust federal courts that overturn legislative majorities. But this time, conservatives hoped that the Roberts Supreme Court would overturn “Obamacare” rather than the less likely scenario of a Republican

president and a congressional majority in both houses doing it sometime in the future. In short, there is no consistent thing such as judicial activism or restraint — only court rulings that support a favored political agenda and then are scorned as activist or lauded as enlightened by the particular involved parties.

A big reason for all the hypocrisies and paradoxes is that the 2,409page health care act is a mess. Even its creators cannot agree whether it involves a mandate, tax or penalty.

The public doesn’t like or want it — at least the parts it must soon pay for. It was passed only on a strictly partisan vote and under shady means (remember the “Cornhusker Kickback”). Hundreds of friends of influential Democratic politicians have already had their companies exempted from what was sold as a wonderful change. The country is nearly insolvent and $16 trillion in debt, and yet poised to take on the largest social-entitlement program in a half-century.

This mess is only the beginning, since we won’t even feel the full effect (or cost) of the law for another two years. But we should assume that what starts out this badly will end even more badly.

lessness about what we put online.

The trick, and I won’t pretend it’s always easy, is to distinguish the reasonable and constructive from the invasive and excessive. We want the sales clerk at the Gap to know our credit card is good, but not to have access to our whole credit history. We want our doctors to share our health histories with one another, but probably not with our employers. We may or may not want retailers to know what kind of books we read, what kind of car we drive, where we are thinking of traveling.

So imagine that you wanted to design an ID that would effectively control illegal hiring without stirring fears of Big Brother.

It would be a single-purpose document, containing only the information that establishes you are eligible to work here. As passports are required for traveling abroad, as library cards are required for checking out books, the ID would be required for starting a job. I’d apply it to future hires only, to avoid forcing employers to be part of a national witch hunt.

You might start with the Social Security card. You would issue a plastic version, and in it you would embed a chip containing biometric information: a fingerprint, an eye scan or a digital photo. The employer would swipe the card and match it to the real you. Unlike your present Social Security card, the new version would be useless to a thief because it would contain your unique identifier. The information would not need to go into a database.

The Government Printing Office al-

H

ready embeds biometric information in passports — 75 million of them so far — and a slew of other documents, such as border-crossing smart cards for Americans who commute to Mexico or Canada, and security passes for the FBI. This is not exotic technology.

I just stayed in a hotel in Barcelona that uses a fingerprint reader in place of a room key.

There would be a significant cost to set up and maintain the system, though it’s reasonable to assume that some of that money could be recouped through modest fees and fines on violators.

This will not satisfy those who fear that any such mandate is potentially “a tool for social control,” as Chris Calabrese of the ACLU put it. But the only way to completely eliminate the risks of a connected world is to burn your documents, throw away your cellphone, cancel your Internet service and live off the grid.

As it happens, the proposal I described is already on the table. Sens.

Charles Schumer and Lindsey Graham included it in their menu for comprehensive immigration reform in 2010. For obvious reasons, they didn’t call it a national ID. They called it an “enhanced Social Security card.”

Like just about everything else, immigration reform is stuck in the mangle of election-year partisanship. And if Congress ever does revert to the business of solving problems, there should be many parts to a humane, sensible immigration bill — including expanded legal immigration and a path to citizenship for many of those already here. But a fraud-proof, limited-use national identification card is an essential part of the package.

Then the Arizona police can go back to doing their real jobs.

ferent problem. Illegal immigrants don’t stop driving; they just drive unlicensed, untested and uninsured.

I understand that the idea of a national ID comes with some chilling history, which is why it has been opposed by activists on the right and left — by the libertarian Cato Institute and the ACLU, by People for the American Way and the American Conser vative Union. Opponents associate national identification cards with the Nazi roundups, the racial sorting of apartheid South Africa, the evils of the Soviet empire. Civil rights groups see in a national ID — especially one that might be required for admission to the voting booth — a shadow of the poll taxes and literacy tests used to deter black voters in the Jim Crow South. More recently, accounts of flawed watch-list databases and rampant identity theft feed fears for our privacy. The most potent argument against an ID is that the government — or some hacker — might access your information and use it to mess with your life.

“The one thing we know with certainty about databases is that they grow,” said Marc Rotenberg, executive director of the Electronic Privacy Information Center, which includes national ID cards on its list of threats.

The official urge to amass and use information, he told me, “takes on a life of its own.”

But on the subject of privacy, we are an ambivalent nation. Americans — especially younger Americans, who swim in a sea of shared information — are casual to the point of reck-

Focus on alternative health plan ostility toward the Supreme Court has risen sharply since Chief Justice John Roberts upheld the Obama health care law. People are apparently angry that the court didn’t rid them of a law they detest.

But if Americans want to replace this thing, they should do it themselves.

The case against “Obamacare” is pretty straightforward. In the first place, the law centralizes power. Rep. Tom Price, R-Ga., counted 159 new federal offices, boards and councils, though nonpartisan researchers have had trouble reaching an exact tally.

In the first six months after passage alone, federal officials churned out an awesome 4,103 pages of regulations.

The law also creates the sort of complex structures that inevitably produce unintended consequences.

The most commonly discussed perverse result is that millions of American will lose their current health insurance.

A report by the House Ways and Means Committee found that 71 of the Fortune 100 companies have an incentive to drop coverage. But nobody really knows. A Congressional Budget Office study this year estimated that 20 million could lose coverage under the law or perhaps 3 million could gain employer coverage.

There are other possible perverse effects. According to a report from the Department of Health and Human Services, over the next 75 years Medicare payment rates for inpatient hospital services would steadily fall from around 67 percent of private insurance payment rates to an implausibly low 39 percent. Doctors would either flee the program in droves or Congress would override the law, exploding the costs.

The law threatens to do all this without even fixing the underlying structures that make the American health care system so inefficient. It fails to fix the fee-for-service system that rewards people for the volume of services provided. It fails to fix the employer tax exemption that hides costs and encourages overspending.

Critics of the bill shouldn’t be hating on Roberts. If they can’t make this case to the voters, they really shouldn’t be in public life. Moreover, there are alternatives. Despite what you’ve read, there is a coherent Republican plan. The best encapsulation of that approach is found in the National Affairs essay, “How to Replace Obamacare,” by James Capretta and Robert Moffit.

Capretta and Moffit lay out the basic Republican principles: First, patients should have skin in the game. If they are going to request endless tests or elaborate procedures, they should bear a real share of the cost. Instead of relying on the current tax exemption that hides costs, the Republican plans would offer people a tax credit for use to purchase the insurance plan that suits their needs. The tax credit could phase out for the wealthy. Employees of small business who aren’t covered now would see an immediate benefit.

Second, Americans should be strongly encouraged to buy continuous coverage over their adulthood.

Then insurance companies would not be permitted to jack up their premiums if a member of their family develops a costly condition.

Third, the Republican approach would encourage experimentation in the states instead of restricting state flexibility.

Fourth, instead of locking Medicaid recipients into a substandard system, the Republicans would welcome them into the same private insurance health markets as their fellow citizens.

This would give them greater access to care, while reducing the incentives that encourage them to remain eligible for the program.

Fifth, this approach would replace Medicare’s open-ended cost burden with a defined contribution structure.

Beneficiaries could choose from a menu of approved plans. If they wanted a more expensive plan, they could pay for it on top of the fixed premium.

Finally, under this approach, any new spending would be offset with cuts so that health care costs do not continue to devour more and more of the federal budget.

Republicans say they trust the people. If that’s true, then they won’t waste another futile breath bashing the court for upholding “Obamacare.”

They’ll explicitly tell the country how they would replace it. Democracy is a contest between alternatives, not a deus ex machina stroke from the lords in black robes.

National ID card is a viable option he Arizona law requiring police to check the immigration status of anyone they suspect of being in the country illegally — a statute tentatively blessed last week by the Supreme Court — is an invitation to abuse. It is all too likely to be used, as the court itself seemed to fear, to intimidate and demean people with the wrong accent or skin tone, thus delivering a get-out-the-humiliated-Hispanic-vote bonus to President Barack Obama. The less likely alternative is that it will be applied more like the random TSA searches at airports, thus infuriating Arizonans across the board.

While we wait for this to play out, let’s turn our attention to another aspect of the so-called “show me your papers” law: Show me WHAT papers? What documents are you supposed to have always on hand to convince police that you are legit?

Welcome to a United States paradox. This country, unlike many other developed democracies, does not require a national identification card, because the same electorate that is so afraid the United States is being overrun by illegal aliens also fears that we are one short step away from becoming a police state.

I’ve suggested before that, as part of any comprehensive reform of our senseless immigration laws, Americans should master their anxieties about a national identification card.

The Arizona controversy reinforces my conviction.

This is not a peripheral issue. The reason Arizona and other states have deputized police as amateur immigration agents — and contemplated making enforcers out of school principals, emergency-room nurses and other civil servants — is that we have failed so utterly to fortify the most obvious line of defense. No, not the Mexican border. Employers. Jobs are, after all, the main magnet for illegal immigration. If we had a reliable way for employers to check the legal status of prospective workers, and held them strictly accountable for doing so, we would not feel the need for all these secondary checkpoints.

What we have now is a laughably ineffective program called E-Verify, in which employers send information supplied by job applicants to be matched against databases in the Social Security Administration or the Department of Homeland Security.

The most extensive study of this program, published in 2009, found it to be so easy to fool the system with stolen or fraudulent documents that more than half of the unauthorized job applicants got a green light.

In the absence of a credible federal system, frustrated states are improvising their own controls. For example, in many states you now have to prove U.S. citizenship or legal residency to get a driver’s license. This is presumably what most Arizonans will show police if they are challenged under the “show me” law. But by transforming a driver’s license into a kind of internal passport, Arizona and states with similar laws have created a dif-

Dark plot touched with shades of the supernatural “Beneath the Shadows”

by Sara Foster (Minotaur, $24.99)

By Oline H. Cogdill Sun Sentinel (Fort Lauderdale)

Australian author Sara Foster uncovers a rich vein of atmosphere in the North Yorkshire moors for her intense psychological thriller about a woman trying to rebuild her life after her husband disappears.

A touch of the supernatural and family ghost tales add to the already spooky landscape that blankets Foster’s debut. But her dabbling in the occult doesn’t subtract from the realistic fears and down-to-earth problems explored in “Beneath the Shadows.”

Grace and Adam Lockwood have just moved from London with Millie, their 10-week-old daughter, to the remote village of Roseby where he has an inherited a cottage from his grandparents. One week after the move, Adam takes Millie for a walk while Grace continues to unpack. A few hours later, Grace finds Millie in her stroller, unharmed, at their doorstep, but Adam has disappeared.

A year later, Grace finally finds the strength to return to Roseby. She needs to settle matters about the cottage and also to try to find out what happened to Adam, who has never been found. Family secrets and tales of ghosts haunt her attempts to find out what happened to her husband.

Foster skillfully uses the village’s isolation and the moors where “the raw, untouched vistas had the power to stop your mind” as a metaphor for Grace’s isolation.

The absorbing plot of “Beneath the Shadows” shows that a quiet, non-violent mystery can pack a lot of punch.

Struggle for gay rights in America is examined “Victory”

by Linda Hirshman (Harper, 443 pgs., $27.99)

By Craig Seligman Bloomberg News

Linda Hirshman’s “Victory: The Triumphant Gay Revolution” is harder-headed than its giddy title suggests.

Most Americans over 40 have experienced the forward march of gay rights as the product of a gradual change in the social air. Hirshman, a retired professor and labor lawyer with a Ph.D. in philosophy, is more interested in the movement’s legislative and judicial ups and downs, and she’s got an opinion about every one of them.

She flays the obvious villains (Lewis Powell, Sam Nunn) and a few surprising ones (Tom Hayden). She goes after some of the heroes, too, for making strategic decisions she considers inept.

Nor does she get misty about the otherwise courageous men who laid the foundations of the movement in the frightening days before Stonewall but were tone-deaf to feminism and, in some cases, just plain didn’t like women.

Her style is breezy (sometimes gratingly so), but her research is very solid; most of her best material comes from the more than 100 interviews she conducted. Her analysis of what makes social movements succeed is always thoughtful and sometimes profound.

Hirshman, who is straight, doesn’t insult the reader by “defending” homosexuality or making an argument for equal rights; the day for that kind of pleading, her approach implies, is over. Anyway, she doesn’t have time.

She’s writing for a general audience, not an academic one, and she refuses to plod, covering a century of

(Linda Hirshman’s) book demonstrates that the reversal in social attitudes toward gay men and lesbians, despite various (but always temporary) political and judicial setbacks, is itself irreversible. struggle in fewer than 350 pages of text. The result is always entertaining and frequently exhilarating.

As a lawyer, Hirshman is especially lucid on the Supreme Court — more lucid, sometimes, than the court itself. In the notorious 1986 Bowers v. Hardwick, it upheld Georgia’s right to criminalize sodomy, dismissing gay claims to equal protection as “facetious.”

The decision had the paradoxical but predictable effect of electrifying a movement dispirited at that point by thousands of AIDS deaths and the Reagan Administration’s indifference to them. A year later, the furiously inventive AIDS protest group ACT UP initiated a new phase in

the fight for rights.

The antigay forces eventually went too far. In the 1996 Romer v. Evans, the court overturned an outrageous initiative that Colorado voters had passed depriving homosexuals of a whole gamut of legal protections that, it held, were “taken for granted by most people ... in a free society.”

That decision led the way to the 2003 Lawrence v. Texas, in which the court finally (if belatedly) overturned the repulsive Bowers v. Hardwick.

Hirshman chronicles the gloomy origins of “don’t ask, don’t tell” early in the Clinton administration and the tortuous path to its abolition last year.

She shows how the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), restricting marriage to oppositesex partners, “sailed through Congress” in 1996 and was signed into law by a cowardly Bill Clinton during “full campaign season.”

After considerable squirming, the Obama administration backed away from the law; at the end of May, a federal appeals court ruled it unconstitutional.

Although Hirshman acknowledges that “Victory” is a title open to misinterpretation, her rationale for using it is clear. Her book demonstrates that the reversal in social attitudes toward gay men and lesbians, despite various (but always temporary) political and judicial setbacks, is itself irreversible.

When the question of marriage lands before the Supreme Court, it could disgrace itself with a repeat of Bowers v. Hardwick. But Hirshman very skillfully shows that, even if it does, down the road a court drawn from a less bigoted generation will inevitably send such a warped decision into the dustbin of history.

Morbid curiosity. Rubbernecking. Schadenfreude.

From our national obsession with celebrity crackups to the popularity of gore fests such as “The Passion of the Christ” and “Texas Chainsaw Massacre,” Americans lead the world in the urge to wallow in everything grotesque, blood-spattered and shocking — as long as it’s happening to somebody else.

What in the world is wrong with us? Or, if Eric G. Wilson is to be believed, right? In his last book (“Against Happiness,” 2008), Wilson talked about why the world needs melancholy — a connection to sadness, grief, even despair — and examined the overemphasis on cheer, arguing that a permanently, exclusively happy individual would be a kind of monster.

Now, he asks if looking away — or being unable to — from horror and misery is just as inhuman.

“Everyone Loves a Good Train Wreck: Why We Can’t Look Away” examines our collective “addiction to the grim” in 50 brief but erudite essays. Perhaps, Wilson suggests, the urge to slow down at a horrific car wreck, gawk at a two-headed baby in a jar or even observe the artifacts of annihilation at the 9/11 Museum in New York conceals a deeper need, “a hunger to penetrate the most profound mysteries of existence.”

Gruesome diversions A professor of English at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, N.C., Wilson freely acknowledges his preoccupation “with the gothic” and his passion for romantic, gloomy, death-haunted poets such as Coleridge, Poe, Dickinson and Keats. He has battled “devastating depression” and been treated for bipolar disorder, a chapter about which, toward the end of the book, movingly reveals how “the morbid nadir carries traces of the apex.”

In an attempt to make sense of his own dark obsessions — “my terra incognita,” as he calls it — Wilson delves into as many gruesome diversions as he can find, alternating his personal experiences with illuminating testimony from philosophers, filmmakers, writers,

biologists, theologians, sociologists and other experts in the field.

Every rock he pries up reveals a wonder of perversity, whether it’s a gore-hound’s collection of “murderabilia” — self-portraits, used toothbrushes and other “relics” of murderers and serial killers — the grisly “reality” of a modern evangelical Passion play, or the erotic hanging of a woman in a black silk dress that forever influenced writer Thomas Hardy.

Nothing is too morally repugnant: Wilson considers the appeal of fight clubs, torture porn and “dark tourism” — the habit of visiting disaster areas such as hurricane-battered New Orleans, Civil War battlefields or the Genocide Museum in Cambodia, site of the Khmer Rouge’s worst atrocities.

‘Horror makes us human’ Part of our lust for the morbid kicked in, Wilson says, when hospitals and funeral homes took over the management of death in the 1950s. Before then, “people usually suffered and died in their own homes,” he writes, and we were well-acquainted with dying; even children knew “its sounds and its smells, the agony of it, and its peace.”

Death may have disappeared behind closed doors, but deep down, we know “our brief time on Earth” will end, and may be vicariously slumming, through the medium of car wrecks or slasher flicks, for a closer look. In that sense, the appeal of darkness, Wilson says, is also the appeal of the sacred, the sublime.

We look for a catharsis; “horror makes us human,” he quotes Mexican horror film director Guillermo del Toro, “because it reminds us of our imperfection.”

Which brings us to the popular (and bloodless) American sport of schadenfreude, German for “harmjoy,” translated as the pleasure we take in other people’s misfortune.

Often reserved for tracking which celebrity has fallen farthest into the abyss (think Charlie Sheen), it’s the happiness we feel when “luxuriating in the warm glow of imaginary imperviousness that other people’s life-destroying stupidities invariably provide.”

“We are enamored of ruin,” Wilson says of us.

“The deeper the darkness is, the more dazzling. Our secret and ecstatic wish: Let it all fall down.”

Book puts a political spin on the middle class

By Justin Moyer The Washington Post

James “Ragin’ Cajun” Carville and less-ragin’ pollster Stan Greenberg helped Bill Clinton become president and still make a living helping their party sell its ideas to voters. For “It’s the Middle Class, Stupid!,” they interviewed middle-class Americans and found that if Democrats want to win in 2012, they must reframe their message to directly appeal to this demographic. Highlights:

On the 2010 elections: Carville and Greenberg aren’t above using salty language and hip-hop slang to describe the thumping Democrats received two years after President Barack Obama took office. “So they told us to go (expletive) ourselves in

2010,” Carville writes. “We got smashed.” Greenberg is more circumspect. “It is a little more complex than that, but, yes, they dissed us,” he writes.

On the middle class: Carville and Greenberg say the question “How does this protect America’s middle class?” is the “filter through which everything must pass.” “There are some who want to be ‘quiet’ about the impolite topic of the fate of the middle class,” they write. But “the predicament of the middle class is the only thing we’re going to talk about.

Basically the biggest change we can bring to the issue of the future of the middle class is to

be (expletive) about it. We are not going away.”

On President Obama: Carville endorses Obama in the book, but it’s hard to forget that he was a vocal backer of Hillary Rodham Clinton during the 2008 primary race. “I remember shouting, ‘What’s the story? What chapter are we in? Where are we going?’” he writes. “My biggest complaint with this president is that there’s a narrative in front of him and he refuses to drive it.”

On ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’: From a Republican family, Carville says Harper Lee converted him. “When I was sixteen

I borrowed a copy of ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’ from the mobile library,” he writes. “Democrats and Republicans were standing for very different principles, and I could see which side was going to represent me.”

On necking in the White House: A college volunteer with the Young Democrats, Greenberg “wound up going to the Democratic National Convention and dating the best friend of Lucy (Baines) Johnson, which got me into the family quarters of the White House,” he writes.

“I later told President Clinton about making out in the solarium where we were meeting.”

On class warfare: Greenberg, citing his experience with Al Gore’s campaign,

says class-warfare politics can attract independent voters. “In the campaign’s polls, we led from Labor Day to the first debate - the period that the Gore campaign waged so-called class warfare,” he writes of the 2000 election. “His lead was wiped out by Gore’s disastrous performances in the debates, but that’s another story.”

On health care: Even before the decision on the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, Greenberg called for further reform. “We cannot afford to wait for the day when the country is so fed up that it turns to a Canadianstyle single-payer system,” he writes. “The stakes for people are too high and too immediate not to double down on the new health care reform law.”

Writers muse on New York’s village green in ‘Central Park’ “Central Park: An Anthology” edited by Andrew Blauner (Bloomsbury, 224 pgs., $16)

“(Central Park represents) the original terra firma of the city, which had somehow been given exterior walls, like a fort, around which the city grew.”

By Michiko Kakutani New York Times News Service

NEW YORK — It’s where Harry and Sally went for a walk under the autumn leaves.

Where Alvy Singer romanced Annie Hall. Where Kermit and Miss Piggy took a ride in a horse-drawn carriage.

Where George and Gwen in “The Out-of-Towners” spent a terrible night sleeping under a tree. Where Oliver went to mourn the death of his beloved Jenny in “Love Story.”

And the place the animals in “Madagascar” once called home.

The historian Kenneth T. Jackson has called Central Park “the most important public space in the United States.”

The park’s biographer, Sara Cedar Miller, called it “one of America’s most important and enduring works of art.” And Christo, who used the park for his dazzling 2005 work of art, “The Gates,” described it as “the most unusual and surrealistic place in New York City.”

In a sprightly new collection, “Central Park: An Anthology,” edited by Andrew Blauner, the park is celebrated by a bevy of talented writers.

Some entries are excerpts from books: There’s a chapter, for instance, from “The Falconer of Central Park,” the naturalist Donald Knowler’s 1984 book about the park’s wildlife, and one from Colson Whitehead’s 2003 ode to the city, “The Colossus of New York.”

Old and new Some are newly commissioned pieces, and some are well-known riffs by wellknown writers, like Marie Winn’s 1994 Wall Street Journal column answering the question Holden Caulfield asked in “The Catcher in the Rye” about where the Central Park ducks go in the winter: They go, she says, to a secret place on the west side of the park, near 77th Street, under the Balcony Bridge, where a natural spring keeps the water from freezing.

The one thing missing from this volume is a detailed historical essay reminding the reader of how Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux won a design competition for the space in 1858, and how their team of 4,000 or so gardeners, engineers, stone masons, artisans and construction workers transformed an inhospitable rectangle of polluted swamps and rocky outcroppings into a verdant, almost entirely man-made landscape that was part Hudson River School painting, part European garden, complete with meadows, lakes, bridges, woodlands, winding

A man sits in the shade under a tree in New York’s Central Park on Tuesday.

paths, fountains and statues.

Tons of earth were moved; underground drainage systems were built; and by one estimate 300,000 trees and shrubs were planted.

For this sort of historical background there are books like Miller’s 2003 study, “Central Park: An American Masterpiece,” and Witold Rybczynski’s “Clearing in the Distance: Frederick Law Olmsted and America in the 19th Century.”

Several contributors to the anthology ratify Christo’s observation that there is something slightly surreal about the park.

Perhaps this has to do with the illusion that Olmsted and Vaux created, using artifice to make an exhilarating work of art that is at once a marvel of nature and the most cherished public space in New York City.

Perhaps it has something to do with the electric green of the park, set against the concrete gray of the city streets, or the landscape’s organic asymmetries, so rigidly contained by its geometric frame.

Perhaps it is simply the tranquility and repose offered by this pastoral haven of quiet, deep in the heart of the noisy metropolis.

A few writers here serve up phantasmagorical or dreamlike stories. In Brooks Hansen’s “Beastie,” the park’s Alice in Wonderland statue comes alive. In an excerpt from Paul Auster’s picaresque novel “Moon Palace,” a former Columbia student does a Rob-

inson Crusoe-like survival stint in the park, subsisting on snacks scavenged from trash bins.

And in Jonathan Safran Foer’s “Sixth Borough,” the park itself is salvaged from an island that has begun to float away from the city, “pulled, by the people of New York, like a rug across a floor, from the Sixth Borough into Manhattan,” where it has remained ever since.

Memories Many of this book’s nonfiction pieces focus on childhood memories of the park.

Susan Sheehan recalls going to the park with her mother in the 1940s, a time when there were pony rides at the zoo, and she used to clamp roller skates onto her saddle shoes on the way home.

Susan Cheever, for her part, remembers how upset she was when her family left Manhattan for the suburbs.

Central Park was all the “little bit of country” she needed, she writes, “my weekend house, my family skating rink, my tennis court, my picnic spot, my dog run and my gym.”

Other writers recall the 1960s, ’70s and early ’80s, when the park — and the city — had fallen on dark times. In his introduction to the book,

Adrian Benepe, New York City’s parks commissioner, remembers when the park was home to a lot of “characters” like the Poet O, a composer of spontaneous works, who made the case for the park’s value as “a large, outdoor sanitarium.” (Benepe will leave his post after Labor Day.) The Great Lawn was known then as the Great Dust Bowl, says Douglas Blonsky, president of the Central Park Conservancy; “Turtle Pond was filled not only with garbage but also with many dead fish”; and Belvedere Castle was boarded up and covered with graffiti.

Thanks to prodigious work

by New York City and the conservancy — $600 million in public and private funds have been raised and invested in restoration — Central Park is now a dazzling reincarnation of the Edenic landscape Olmsted and Vaux envisioned more than a century and a half ago.

No matter how much the park has changed, for good or ill, it radiates for many of the writers here a sense of timelessness and constancy: It remains a kind of memory portal to the past, a Proustian time machine.

The novelist Nathaniel

Rich writes about an annual ritual of playing football with old high school friends on Thanksgiving weekend in a field near the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The Turkey-Lurkey Bowl tradition began after they had all scattered to colleges around the country, and was meant, somehow, “to prove that nothing had changed.”

The bowl, he writes, “is still a form of regression, an expression of the emotions that tie us to each other.”

As for Ben Dolnick, he recalls the summer job he once had at the Central Park Zoo, where he helped care for Newman, a white Nubian goat.

Newman would become a character in his first novel, “Zoology,” and, as the years passed, a symbol of continuity.

Dolnick says he “took great and strange comfort in knowing, as I passed the zoo on a walk across the park or even as I looked down on the city from a landing plane” that Newman’s “life was carrying on more or less unchanged.

While I got married and moved apartments and wrote another book, he stayed in his pen, his coat growing shaggier in winter and thinner in summer. During Hurricane Katrina, the Red Sox winning the pennant, the death of Michael Jackson, the financial crisis, the election of Barack Obama, and the invention of the iPad, he slept in his shed’s warmest corner, ate food pellets when they were offered to anyone in his vicinity and looked calmly at or past the

Even when glimpsed from a window, the park exerts its strange magic: The photographer Ruth Orkin did two stunning books of photographs (“A World Through My Window,” “More Pictures From My Window”) all shot from her apartment overlooking Sheep Meadow, a vantage point from which, she once wrote, “it turned out, you can see everything.”

Mark Helprin recalls looking out the window of his family’s Central Park West apartment and thinking that the immense line of buildings on the other side of the park, on Fifth Avenue, “shadowed in morning, rose-colored in the setting sun, and sparkling in the dark, was Europe, where my father spent half the year at work.”

And Thomas Beller remembers staring down at the park and thinking that it represented “the original terra firma of the city, which had somehow been given exterior walls, like a fort, around which the city grew.”

In Buzz Bissinger’s case, the view from his childhood apartment on Central Park West provided a window on a changing New York City.

Just as he loved the boyhood ritual of going to the park with his parents on Sundays, so he later loved the ritual of sitting with his dad in front of the living room window overlooking the park.

Bissinger’s father died in 2001, his mother four months later, and when the rent zoomed from $2,700 a month to $7,000 to $10,000, he and his sister were forced to let go of their treasured home. Looking back now, he says he realized he never felt closer to his family than when they were sitting in the living room, looking out the picture window at the panorama of those 843 acres below.

“I thought we would last forever,” he writes. “In a way I cannot quite explain, I felt a sense of immortality because Central Park was immortal, that everything would always stay the same.”

BOOKS FOR KIDS

Some cool ways to help fight ‘summer setback’

By Claire Abraham McClatchy Newspapers

Summertime is a great time to catch up on reading for fun.

It’s important for young people to read for pleasure during the summer months because recreational reading helps prevent “summer setback,” or a decline in reading skills.

Whether they flip the pages of traditional books or swipe the pages on Mom and Dad’s e-reader, kids can curl up with a good book any time and any place during summer break.

First grade: “Old Hat, New Hat” by Stan and Jan Berenstein (Random House, $8.99).

This whimsical book provides proof that a funny and satisfying story can be told with only a handful of words.

A little bear with a beaten up old hat visits the local hat store to get a new hat. However, there seems to be something wrong with every one of them:

This one is too big, that one is too small, too flat, too tall. The staff becomes more and more annoyed as the picky little bear rejects hat after hat, until he finds the perfect one.

Second grade: “Ramona the Pest” by Beverly Cleary (Perfection Learning, $15.25) Ramona Quimby doesn’t mean to be a pest, but sometimes she just can’t help it. The first in the series of wild adventures about Ramona shows her entering kindergarten.

Belly laughs ensue as she tries to make sense of many new, confusing experiences. Her teacher asks her to sit here “for the present.” Why doesn’t she get a present? What is a dawnzer lee light? Hilarity turns to pathos when Ramona gets in trouble and declares herself a kindergarten dropout. Will she come back?

Third grade: “Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark” by Alvin

Schwartz (HarperCollins, $5.99) These spooky stories from classic folklore are lots of fun to read or tell aloud, and they come in several different styles. Some are “jump tales,” in which the reader is scared by a sudden surprise at the end. There are ghost tales, and tales that end up making you laugh. All are spine-tingling enough to make for fun reading but mild enough that parents needn’t fear that they will cause nightmares.

Fourth grade: “Charlotte’s Web” by E. B. White (HarperCollins, $8.99) Wilbur the Pig is very frightened when he learns that he is being fattened up for slaughter, but his best friend, Charlotte the spider, has a clever plan to save his life. This charming classic was a Newbery Honor book in 1953, the year after its initial publication. Since

then, it has been the subject of two movie adaptations and a movie sequel. This timeless tale of friendship and sacrifice has been a family favorite for generations.

Fifth grade: “Because of Winn-Dixie” by Kate DiCamillo (Candlewick, $6.99) Kate DiCamillo’s debut novel tells the story of India Opal Buloni, who feels out of place when she moves to the small town of Naomi, Fla. Then she meets a lovable mutt at the supermarket, and her life begins to change. With the help of her dog, whom she names WinnDixie, she begins to meet some of the eccentric people who live in the small town. Children love this heartwarming story about a girl looking to find her place in the world. It won the 2002 Texas Bluebonnet Award, voted by schoolchildren of Texas, and was made into a hit movie in 2009.

Sixth grade: “The Skin I’m In” by Sharon Flake (Hyperion, $7.99) Thirteen-year-old Maleeka feels awkward and self-conscious at school. She is very tall for her age, and her skin is quite dark. Other kids in her class tease her. Then she gets a new English teacher, Miss Saunders, who exudes confidence despite the large birthmark on her face. Miss Saunders tries to help Maleeka express herself in writing, but Maleeka seeks acceptance and validation in other ways as well. Her friendship with the school bully, Charlese, creates more problems than it solves and a flirtation with a boy named Caleb is cut short. In the end, Maleeka learns how to stand up for herself and she also wins the school poetry contest. Sharon Flake won a Coretta Scott King award for this coming-of-age story that

encourages young people to accept themselves for who they are.

Seventh and eighth grades: “The Hobbit,” or “There and Back Again,” by J.R.R. Tolkien (Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, $25) This classic novel, first published in 1937, was a landmark book in fantasy for children and remains one of the most famous children’s books of all time. Bilbo Baggins is a hobbit, living peacefully in his home in the Shire until he is hired

by Gandalf the Wizard and a band of dwarves to go on a great adventure to win back treasure that was stolen by a dragon named Smaug. Along the way, he meets up with goblins, orcs and a twisted creature named Gollum from whom he steals a terrible prize of epic importance. The movie version of “The Hobbit” will be in theaters later this year.

‘Gone Girl’ a triumph of intricate plotting “Gone Girl”

by Gillian Flynn (Crown, $25)

By Joy Tipping The Dallas Morning News

In more than 20 years of reviewing books, I’ve never found one harder to write about than Gillian Flynn’s new suspense novel, “Gone Girl.” So marvelously, intricately plotted is Flynn’s novel that I can’t tell you much about it without giving something away.

The story, full of midnight-black wit and gorgeous writing, revolves around the deteriorating marriage of Nick and Amy Dunne, who’ve come back to Nick’s hometown of North Carthage, Mo., from New York City after he loses his longtime magazine job and their finances fall apart.

Nick tells the tale, and readers will get the notion early on that he’s the textbook definition of “unreliable narrator” — he’s so glib, good at half-truths and weak of character, it’s easy to understand why he’s the chief suspect when Amy goes missing on their fifth wedding anniversary.

But was she kidnapped or did she leave voluntarily?

And does “glib” equal “murderer”?

About halfway through the book, something happens that will change everything you think you’ve decided based on what you’ve read to that point.

That’s the moment you should check the clock and firmly put the book down if you have to rise early the next day. Because trust me, if you keep reading, you will not stop till you finish it.

Ordinary Continued from F1 We end up convinced that being average will doom our children to a life that will fall far short of what we want for them.

As Brene Brown, a research professor at the University of Houston Graduate School of Social Work and author of the book “The Gifts of Imperfection” (Hazelden, 2010) said, “In this world, an ordinary life has become synonymous with a meaningless life.”

And that’s a problem. Because “extraordinary is often what the general public views as success,” said Jeff Snipes, cofounder of PDI Ninth House, a corporate leadership consulting firm. “You make a lot of money or have athletic success. That’s a very, very narrow definition.

What about being compassionate or living a life of integrity?”

Ordinary and normal smack too much of average. It seems that we all want to live in Garrison Keillor’s mythical Lake Wobegon, where all children are above average.

Levine said she was once scheduled to give a talk on parenting the average child at a school in Marin County, Calif.

Although she usually packs in the audiences, not one person showed up. “Apparently no one in the county has an average child,” said Levine, the author of the forthcoming book “Teach Your Children Well: Parenting for Authentic Success.”

While there are some extraordinary children out there, the myth is that all children in high school will be like that, she said. And that, Levine said, is putting enormous stress on students.

Most people, she said, have talent in some areas, are average performers in many areas and are subpar in some areas.

The problem is that we have such a limited view of what we consider an accomplished life that we devalue many qualities that are critically important.

“We would do kids a great service if we opened the tent a little more,” Levine said.

The Toronto Star did that in March when it printed a column about Shelagh Gordon, who recently died of a brain aneurysm, with the headline, “Shelagh was here — an ordi-

‘Alif the Unseen’ explores the power of narrative “Alif the Unseen”

by G. Willow Wilson (Grove, $25)

By David L. Ulin Los Angeles Times

What is the power of stories? That’s the question at the heart of G. Willow Wilson’s first novel, “Alif the Unseen,” which takes place in an unnamed Middle Eastern emirate at a time very much like the present, as a repressive security state finds itself challenged by a flowering of freedom in its streets. It would be tempting to call this a reaction to the Arab Spring, except the book was completed in early 2011, just before the protests began in Cairo’s Tahrir Square.

But no matter, for this is Wilson’s point throughout the novel, that stories channel something deeper, that narrative is the DNA, or the computer code, by which we dream reality (or the future) into being. “So the stories aren’t just stories, is what you’re saying.

They’re really secret knowledge disguised as stories,” the novel’s protagonist, a dissident hacker who calls himself Alif, says to an outsider named Vikram the Vampire, who may or may not be a djinn or genie. Vikram’s response? “One could say that of all stories, younger brother.”

A many-layered story Vikram’s right, of course, although it’s also the case that we use different stories for different reasons: to console or challenge us, to support our worldviews or uproot the status quo. Wilson appears to have all of this in mind with “Alif the Unseen,” which aspires to operate on many levels, both visible and invisible, at the same time. It is a layered work, in which Alif, on the run from state security for digital insurrection, ends up in possession of a legendary book,

“Extraordinary is often what the general public views as success. You make a lot of money or have athletic success. That’s a very, very narrow definition. What about being compassionate or living a life of integrity?”

nary, magical life.” At the same time, The Star ran online interviews with more than 100 people whose life had been touched by the 55-year-old Gordon.

“We had come up with the idea of grooming the obituaries and re-creating a life from the people at the funeral,” said Catherine Porter, who wrote the column about Gordon. “We thought it might be a fun journey.” Gordon’s obituary stood out, Porter said, because “a lot of obits read like a resume — an accumulation of concrete action. Her legacy was in her relationships to people.”

She didn’t have a great job, she wasn’t married and never had children, so she wasn’t successful in either the traditional male or female sense, Porter said. But people would keep telling stories about her kindness. “She had a lot of magic in her life, and that’s reassuring,” Porter said. “That you can live a full, interesting, ordinary life.”

How do we go back to the idea that ordinary can be extraordinary? How do we teach our children — and remind ourselves — that life doesn’t have to be all about public recognition and prizes, but can be more about our relationships and special moments?

“It’s a value I have to choose again and again, as is true with all of us,” said Katrina Kenison, author of “The Gift of an Ordinary Day” (Grand Central Publishing, 2009). “My job as a mother is not to get my son in the top college, but to enjoy ordinary life. To swim in a pond on a hot day or walk with a friend or make dinner from

the “Alf Yeom,” or “The Thousand and One Days.” As Vikram explains: “That title is no accident — this is the inverse, the overturning of the ‘Nights.’

In it is contained all the parallel knowledge of my people, preserved for future generations. This is not the work of human beings. This book was narrated by the jinn.”

The hidden world Whether you’re willing to believe that will determine much of what you think about “Alif the Unseen.”

It is a novel in which the supernatural merges with the natural, in which myths and legends — genies, magic, the idea of an unseen world not exactly beneath the surface but at cross angles to this one — are taken at face value, woven into a larger adventure in which unwittingly, even at times unwillingly, Alif must take on the security apparatus of the state, as embodied by its chief enforcer, a man known only as the Hand of God. This suggests one facet of the novel, the way it equates cyberspace, where people hide behind virtual names and identities, with the subtleties and ambiguities of the ancient parables. Alif, after all, is the first letter in the Arabic alphabet, not just a screen name but also the symbol of a new beginning, just as the Hand of God stands for all the repressive power of religion, the way faith is used to break us rather than to make us free.

Yet Wilson is after more than liberation theology or politics, although both wend their way through the pages of her book. Instead, she wants

scratch.”

As Kenison said, one of the most important conversations we can have with our children is what we mean by success.

“Ordinary has a bad rap, and so does settling — there is the idea is that we should always want more,” she said. “But there’s a beauty in cultivating an appreciation for what we already have.”

And that’s not easy, she acknowledged, especially in affluent areas where success — or the perception of success — is like a drug that we can never get enough of.

“I know I began writing in an attempt to heal the disconnect between what I observed around me — the pressure to excel, to be special, to succeed — and what I felt were the real values I wanted to pass on to my children: kindness, service, compassion, gratitude for life as it is,” she said.

People are hungry for such reassurance. Kenison’s book trailer has received 1.6 million views, which is far from ordinary.

Some people may fear that embracing the ordinary means that they are letting themselves and their children off easy. If it’s all right to be average, why try to excel? But the message isn’t to settle for a life on the couch playing Xbox (though, yes, playing Xbox is OK sometimes), but rather to make sure you aspire to goals because they are important to you, not because you want to impress your parents, your community or your friends.

As McCullough said in his graduation speech: “Climb the mountain not to plant your flag, but to embrace the challenge, enjoy the air and behold the view. Climb it so you can see the world, not so the world can see you.”

When I told a friend that I was writing this column, she reminded me of the last paragraph of George Eliot’s great novel “Middlemarch” and its celebration of the ordinary: “For the growing good of the world is partly dependent on unhistoric acts; and that things are not so ill with you and me as they might have been, is half owing to the number who lived faithfully a hidden life, and rest in unvisited tombs.”

us to recognize the extent to which the world, both internal and external, remains beyond us, not just out of sight but literally unable to be seen. “Superstition is thriving,” a character tells Alif late in the novel.

“Pedantry is thriving. Sectarianism is thriving. Belief is dying out. … Find me someone to whom the hidden folk are simply real, as described in the Books. You’ll be searching a long time. Wonder and awe have gone out of your religions. You are prepared to accept the irrational, but not the transcendent.

And that, cousin, is why I can’t help you.”

Secular and spiritual Wilson is at her best when addressing such issues, placing the secular within a spiritual frame.

“In the end, I am not even myself,” she writes. “I am a string of bones speaking the word God.” That’s a beautiful line, and it speaks to the depth of her own belief; American born, she converted to Islam as an adult, an experience she recounts in her 2010 memoir, “The Butterfly Mosque.”

Indeed, the two most fulfilled — and fulfilling — characters here are the most observant: an aged sheikh who refuses to miss prayers even amid a full-out assault on the mosque where he has sheltered Alif (“Conscience is the ultimate measure of a man,” he explains) and a teenage girl, Dina, Alif’s neighbor, who wears the veil by choice and becomes in many ways the moral center of the book for her flinty courage, her ability to see and respond to events as they are. That’s a rare talent in a novel where, more often

than not, people are fooled by what they cannot see, and it’s refreshing also for a young girl to be portrayed as forceful and astute.

Narrative issues Still, as compelling as this is, “Alif the Unseen” has its problems, mostly involving the mechanisms of its own storytelling, which at times become melodramatic and contrived. In one particularly heavy-handed bit, the Hand of God turns out to be not just Alif’s digital rival but also his romantic rival; he is betrothed to a woman Alif thought he loved.

For Wilson, this is clearly meant to set up another layer, another play on “The Thousand and One Nights”: “He asked about my thesis,” the woman explains, “and told me how happy he was to have an educated wife. He cares about my mind. None of the other men my father has suggested have given a damn what I think, or whether I think at all.” The whole thing, however, seems too easy, too schematic, a problem compounded in the second half of the novel by two clunky and unbelievable deus ex machinas. If we read novels — and I think, in part, we do — to watch people wrestle their way out of situations, then to see a character rescued repeatedly by what amounts to divine intervention is to defuse the tension of the narrative. It would have been more effective, in these cases, to let Alif work out his problems for himself.

And yet, in the end, this may be the point also: that we cannot exist entirely for ourselves. We need others, seen or unseen, human or otherwise, belief systems, stories, narratives. Without them, the universe is too chaotic, and we fall prey to illusion and false faith.

Literary trips to the Middle East G. Willow Wilson frames “Alif the Unseen” as part of a storytelling tradition. Below are some works of Middle Eastern literature that operate in a similar vein.

• “Tales From 1,001 Nights” (Penguin Classics, 502 pgs., $18 paper) We all know the saga of Scheherazade, but in this new translation by Malcolm C. Lyons and Ursula Lyons, we discover the best known of her narratives anew. Ali Baba, Sinbad the Sailor, Aladdin and the Magic Lamp — they’re all here, rendered in an English that evokes both the classical and the modern.

• “The Complete Persepolis” by Marjane Satrapi (Pantheon, 342 pgs., $24.95 paper) This masterpiece in graphic novel form looks at Iran’s Islamic Revolution through the filter of the author’s childhood in the Tehran of the Ayatollah and later her experience of exile from, and re-engagement with, her past. Satrapi interweaves history to contextualize her narrative.

But the real story is her honesty, which affirms her faith in stories as a saving grace.

• “The House of Jasmine”

by Ibrahim Abdel Meguid (Interlink, 156 pgs., $15 paper) Just published for the first time in the U.S., this book begins on June 13, 1974, the day President Richard Nixon drove through Cairo in a motorcade with Egyptian President Anwar Sadat. The tension between the promises of politicians and the real lives of men and women is the substance of the novel, which makes a subtle comparison between inequities in Sadat’s Egypt and the conditions that led to the uprising in Tahrir Square.

anufacturing comes up often in conversations people have with Rick Fredland, the Bend inventor of the Silipint silicone pint cup and other products.

People ask if his cups and silicone tazlab dog bowls are made in the United States.

No, he says.

The products are made in China, where labor and raw materials cost less, but shipping costs add up. “‘Would you pay $35 for this dog bowl?’ And they say no. I’m, like, ‘Exactly,’” Fredland said.

But Fredland would like to find a way to keep the price at or near $15, where it is now, while also manufacturing in the United States.

“I’m trying desperately to find a way to make it cost-effective to come back here,” Fredland said, adding that an Idaho manufacturing company would like to make the goods for him.

If Fredland succeeds, he could join other businesses in the U.S. and in Oregon that maintain manufacturing operations here or have brought them back from other countries.

Google caught attention about two weeks ago for committing to build its new Nexus Q media players in the United States. In 2010, Keen Footwear, based in Portland, started a manufacturing facility along the Willamette River on the city’s north side to make some boots, in addition to its operations in China and Vietnam.

Last year, Ford Motor Co. and the United Auto Workers signed a deal to bring 12,000 new hourly jobs to the U.S. by 2015, including some from China, Japan and Mexico.

LOS ANGELES — Wouldn’t it be nice to forget your wallet — permanently?

That day is coming sooner than you think. In the walletless future there will be no credit cards to lose, no cash to carry and no concert tickets to leave at home. Already, with a few taps on the screen of your smartphone, you can order a meal at a restaurant, loan your friend 20 bucks or even unlock the door to your house — so you can lose the keys, too.

Nearly half of U.S. consumers own smartphones, and as they have gained popularity the devices have grown to resemble pocket mini-malls, with rows of virtual storefronts where consumers can buy video games, music, books and TV shows.

In mid-2008, as the nation’s economy melted down, the total amount of national home mortgage debt decreased, according to Federal Reserve figures.

It was the first time in 15 years the amount had dropped from one quarter to the next. And it has continued to drop every quarter since.

The change reflects the mortgage lending cut off by banks and their continued efforts to strictly scrutinize who they are lending to. Fewer borrowers are qualifying for loans as a result.

In 2007, more than 6.5 million new mortgages were written nationwide, according to data from the Federal Financial Institu-

Apps put New airline seating policies wallets in draw criticism from families phones, not our pockets

By David Sarno

The Bulletin

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. — If you want to sit next to family or friends the next time you fly, better not leave it up to chance at the airport.

With some airlines no longer allowing families with young children to pre-board, and others putting a premium price on more of their seats in economy, it’s getting harder to score seats together without paying extra.

Some fliers say the latest changes in air travel are family unfriendly, as they force travelers on a budget to sit aisles apart if they can’t afford to fork out extra for advance seat assignments.

As Americans prepare to travel during the peak summer travel period, some could be in for a surprise if they haven’t flown in a while.

Major airlines, including American and Delta, have added more legroom to certain seats and are charging extra to passengers who want to reserve them early.

Many times these are the

only seats available when purchasing a ticket close to your travel dates as airlines have already blocked seats for elite-status and higher-paying customers.

The seat selection process also has become less transparent, experts say. Seat fees can range from $4 to $200 one-way, depending on airline, benefits and destination.

“The airlines are trying to

get people to buy the premium seats,” said George Hobica of Airfarewatchdog.com said.

“They’re selling scarcity and position.”

Hobica said airlines are looking at other industries such as sports and entertainment that are making money from seat revenue management, and are adopting similar strategies.

The Internet is a rabbit hole of distraction. It’s easy to wind up knee-deep in paparazzi photos of Beyoncé’s new baby when you intended only to answer a few emails.

But last week, I had a different experience.

Stressed out, on a deadline, I was frustrated to the point of uselessness and began to post a handful of items to Twitter and Tumblr. For a while, my mind and fingers wandered aimlessly around the Web. When I grew tired of this, I turned back to my assignment, completed it and

turned it in. The entire detour took less than 10 minutes, and it seemed to make me more efficient.

Of course, the standard party line is that our focus and attention span are being whittled away by the neverending barrage of services flooding our screens and feeds — and that this is a debilitating trend.

John Herrman, an editor at FWD, a tech site on BuzzFeed, says he’s developed a kind of tech neurosis from the frenetic race to keep up with emails, mobile emails, Twitter, Facebook, instant messaging, phone calls and text messages throughout the day.

Detour Continued from G1 â&#x20AC;&#x153;I, like so many people I know who work on computers, seem very inefficient,â&#x20AC;? he wrote in a recent post. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even if my output is high, my input is astronomically higher. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m never not looking sideways at what Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m doing, never not pulled to look at something else, never not reacting to whatever Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve paused on.â&#x20AC;?

Most days, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my experience, too â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but not always. In fact, sometimes Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve found that losing myself in the Web can be invigorating. Instead of needing to turn off the noise of the Web, I often use it to calm my nerves so I can finish my work.

It seems that instead of fracturing my focus and splintering my attention span, digital distractions have become a part of my work flow, part of the process, along with organizing notes and creating an outline for each article I write. Perhaps itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible to master the demands on my attention by figuring out a way to juggle the multitude of apps and services that beg to be looked at, clicked on and answered.

Brain on the superhighway If my brain is learning how to cope with distractions, is it possible that others are, too?

Of course, the consensus among scientists and researchers is that trying to juggle many tasks fractures our thinking and degrades the quality of each action. But understanding the plasticity of the brain, or its ability to adapt and reorganize its pathways, is still in its early stages.

Adam Gazzaley, a neuroscientist at the University of California, San Francisco, who studies the impact of interruption on performance and memory, says itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible that our brains are adapting to handle the many inputs of digital stimulation. He and his research team are using interactive video games to observe how the brain adapts to multiple tasks that increase in difficulty over time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We can train ourselves to get better,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re studying the plasticity of the brain so we can understand how abilities can improve.â&#x20AC;?

It may be that the brain â&#x20AC;&#x201D; or some brains â&#x20AC;&#x201D; can handle certain levels of multitasking and not others, he said. Surfing the Web and talking on the phone may not place the same demand on available cognitive resources as, say, cruising down the highway and sending a text message. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an area of research that scientists and psychologists are just starting to explore, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pushing the brain to master switching between tasks,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But if abilities can actually improve, the question is, by how much?â&#x20AC;?

Attention as currency A budding industry is geared toward helping people manage their attention and the various sites and services that hope to command it. But some of the makers of the biggest offenders of distracting technology are adding features that give users more control over their availability and accessibility to the rest of the world.

Apple plans to introduce a new feature called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do Not Disturbâ&#x20AC;? into an update of its next generation of mobile software, iOS. The feature will mute notifications and phone calls.

Susan Etlinger, a consultant at the Altimeter Group who advises companies on how best to use technology, said that phones and services that offered greater controls to manage interruptions could become an important selling point for buyers and tech users. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is becoming increasingly clear that attention is the new currency,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Consider social networks and the businesses we interact with every day. They are all competing for a sliver of our time and attention. So maintaining our attention becomes a competitive advantage.â&#x20AC;?

But she offered a glimmer of hope. Even if our brains canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t adjust to the waves of information and services demanding our time, perhaps technology will someday emerge to do that for us.

By the grace of Gouda

DEEDS

â&#x20AC;˘ Virginiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cheese-making nuns keep their gouda prayerful, profitable

D es chutes County

By Martha Miller Special to The Washington Post

It is 10:05 a.m., and Sister Barbara Smickel is shoulder-deep in curds and whey. She is in the cheese barn at Our Lady of the Angels Monastery in Crozet, Va., located about 14 miles west of Charlottesville and down a winding gravel lane.

The monastery is a plain yet well-kept brick building perched atop a grassy hillside. The red-and-white cheese barn sits just down the hill; rolling pastures of farmland visible from its small windows.

Amid the roar of a highpressure hose, which is in use by another sister to clean a piece of equipment nearby, Sistera Barbaraâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s movements are quiet and self-contained. It is a ritualistic habit born from more than two decades of experience and 619 (and counting) batches of Gouda, a cowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s-milk cheese made by cooking cultured milk until the whey separates from the curd. After cooking, the curds are â&#x20AC;&#x153;washedâ&#x20AC;? by draining off some of the whey, then cut, pressed into wheels to expel moisture, and floated in a salty water bath overnight. This process is what defines Gouda, with its characteristic creamy texture and mild, sweet flavor.

Sister Barbara, 75, wears a blue hairnet, a smock printed with sunflowers and knee-high rubber boots. Her feet slosh quietly along the wet concrete floor and alongside a large stainless steel vat holding 725 gallons of curds and whey. She runs her hands through the warm and milky cottage cheeselike mixture. This moment, she tells me, when her sinewy arms search by feel alone for large clumps of curd to break apart, has become her favorite part of making cheese. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is very prayerful,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Like a communion with the Lord and what is becoming cheese under my fingers.â&#x20AC;?

Turning a profit In 1991, the monastery produced the first wheels of Monastery Country Cheese. As one of six sisters sent by Mount Saint Maryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Abbey in Massachusetts (the â&#x20AC;&#x153;motherhouseâ&#x20AC;?) to open Our Lady of the Angels Monastery in 1987, Sister Barbara says cheesemaking was part of their plan for self-support from the outset. It was, in fact, the reason they purchased the property, which had already been set up to make Gouda by the previous owner. However, good intentions rarely guarantee success in the often fickle world of food.

Twenty years later, I stand in a darkened walkin refrigerator with Sister Barbara and nearly five tons of two-pound Gouda wheels that are coated in a brilliant red wax. From now until the end of August, the sisters will produce and stockpile an additional 650 pounds per week in preparation for the Christmas rush. In 1991, the monastery sold about 10,500 pounds, but Sister Barbara expects they will nearly double that amount this year, close to 19,000 pounds. The nuns still eat it three or four times a week, Sister Barbara says, and she expects they will sell out by early December.

Needless to say, word of the Virginia nuns making Gouda cheese has spread.

has followed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It sells like crazy,â&#x20AC;? says Eric Gertner, owner of Feast, a local market and cheese shop in Charlottesville. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We go out to the monastery and buy 30 or 40 wheels at a time.â&#x20AC;? Gertner and his wife, Kate Collier, have sold the monasteryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gouda since 2009 and go through 150 to 200 wheels per year.

Gertner describes the cheese as â&#x20AC;&#x153;a nice, young and buttery Gouda that is very similar to a Dutch Gouda.â&#x20AC;?

As for why the cheese is so popular, Gertner says its mild flavor makes it a versatile cheese that will please any palate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We suggest adding it to omelets or a quiche,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We also like to pair it with other local ingredients in our baskets, like Edwards Surryano Ham and Virginia peanuts.â&#x20AC;?

Feast is the monasteryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only wholesale customer, by choice. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We do not try to get bigger each year,â&#x20AC;? Sister Barbara says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We produce only what we need to support ourselves so that we can remain focused on our life of worship.â&#x20AC;?

The sisters have taken steps to keep demand manageable by focusing mainly on retail and choosing not to set up an online ordering system. Purchases are completed via mail order or with a neighborly knock on the monasteryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s front door. Local families and a handful of corporate clients are among their most frequent customers, but Sister Barbara says they ship to cheese lovers across the United States.

The price, $25 for a two-pound wheel, has remained consistent. The sisters donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t plan on raising it anytime soon. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just too hard out there for people right now,â&#x20AC;? Sister Barbara says.

Aside from an increase in the number of cheesemaking sisters, now 12 (up from the original six), an expansion to the cheese barn in 2007 and the purchase of a pre-press vat from Finland to reduce some of the heavy lifting, Sister Barbara says little about the process has changed over the years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have the equipment to make cheddar,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But if itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not broke, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fix it.â&#x20AC;?

Sister Barbara says she is

Where Buyers And Sellers Meet 1000â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Of Ads Every Day

thankful for the Gouda blessings, including not once producing a bad batch, a perfect record that she says is very rare in the cheese business.

She has learned a lot along the way, including how to blend milk from different breeds of cow to yield the most cheese (a mix of Holstein-Friesian, Swedish Red and Brown Swiss from Green Hills Farm in nearby Rockingham County) and how to improve efficiency through technology while preserving a hands-on approach, an aspect of the monasteryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cheesemaking she is most proud of.

With 20 years of experience and well into that time of life when most people retire, Sister Barbara still oversees the production process. But she also is focused on training the next generation of Gouda cooks. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m 75 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but a very vigorous 75, thanks be to God,â&#x20AC;? she says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t retire in the sense of going off to Florida or sitting around knitting all day.â&#x20AC;?

Manufacture

Continued from G1 The trend is called on-shoring, re-shoring or in-sourcing.

Whatever people call it, President Barack Obama favors it.

At a meeting with business leaders in January, he said his administration would propose tax incentives for companies that in-source and cut tax breaks for companies that outsource.

Meanwhile, several companies in Central Oregon continue to manufacture here.

In May, more than 5,200 employees held manufacturing jobs in Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties, according to data from the Oregon Employment Department.

Reasons vary — companies want to maintain high quality, support local people or say their products are made in the USA. And others would like to see more manufacturing happen here and less of it overseas.

Roger Lee, executive director of Economic Development for Central Oregon, said he and his colleagues try to find out where Central Oregon companies get their raw materials and encourage them to consider local suppliers if they’re available.

“I think it’s always a point (we ask about), but we also don’t drive the business, for anybody,” Lee said. “Our role is to kind of suggest and ask questions and so forth and see if there’s opportunities there.”

In addition, EDCO seeks to help businesses start exporting and adding markets, which can add revenues and discourage the urge to outsource manufacturing, said the nonprofit’s marketing manager, Ruth Lindley.

But some companies aren’t eager to outsource, anyway.

At Newhouse Manufacturing Inc. in Redmond, farmers comprise the core customer base. They appreciate the company conducting almost all of its service and manufacturing work in Redmond, and

Continued from G1 He advises travelers to bring a few Starbucks Coffee gift cards along to bribe fellow fliers into switching seats, or offer to buy them a drink, so that family members can sit together.

Earlier this year, United Airlines ended a six-month trial that allowed families with children to board flights before the general boarding process, spokesman Charles Hobart said Monday.

That move slowed boarding, so United ended the experiment. Families with children now board in their respective ticket groups, he said.

“We found that’s the most efficient way to get all of our customers, including families with children, on board in a timely manner,” Hobart said.

Last month Kaja Meade, a New York mother of a 9-monthold, rallied nearly 39,000 supporters to protest United’s decision on Change.org.

“This is another airline policy that’s bad for travelers, and I’m concerned that others may follow United’s lead,” Meade said.

“Like many other parents, I rely on pre-boarding as part of my travel plan. It’s not an amenity; it’s a necessary service.”

Industry watchers also have asked airlines to reconsider policies and fees that unfairly burden and stress travelers with young children.

“Families traveling with infants and toddlers often can’t avoid checking extra bags filled with everything from the many clothes changes needed for small children to diapers, toys, special blankets and baby bottles,” Charlie Leocha, director of the Consumer Travel Alliance, said recently.

In spite of pre-boarding changes, United does encourage travelers with special needs to identify themselves to airport staff so they can try to accommodate their needs,” Hobart said.

Families traveling on American Airlines with small children will be at the mercy of check-in and gate agents at the airport if seat assignments aren’t secured in advance.

“We do not have a hard-andfast rule about calling families to board,” spokesman Ed Martelle said. “We give the gate agents leeway to use their discretion given circumstances at the gate.”

Some airlines do extend pre-boarding courtesies to families.

Southwest allows family with children younger than 5 to board for free after the Aboarding group, spokeswoman Michelle Agnew said.

JetBlue offers early boarding for families traveling with children younger than the age of 2, spokeswoman Allison Steinberg said.

“We’re in the business of flying people, not just planes,” Steinberg said. “JetBlue’s mission to bring humanity back to air travel, and that means we work to make the travel experience as comfortable and easy as possible for our customers.”

“Do your homework first then go to a travel agent,” said Giuliano Lorenzani, owner and president of Boca Raton (Fla.) Travel & Cruises.

Travis Huff prepares a guitar body to be buffed at the Breedlove Guitar Co. manufacturing facility in Bend.

Re-shoring event slated Tom Wright-Hay, a board member of the Portland-based nonprofit organization Oregon Manufacturing Extension Partnership Inc., will speak Tuesday in Bend about mistakes to avoid when outsourcing and opportunities for suppliers to capture business from American companies bringing manufacturing back to the United States.

The event begins at 7 a.m. in the Boyle Education Center’s Christiansen Boardroom at Central Oregon Community College. Admission and breakfast cost $20.

none of it abroad, said Dan Winton, the company’s general manager.

And even if customers wouldn’t mind, making Newhouse’s heavy tubs for cooking mint and other agricultural products abroad and shipping them back to the United States might not be a good economic move. The company produces a small number of its machines at any given time.

“Outsourcing a lot of times just doesn’t make sense because our runs aren’t high enough to save us a significant amount of money,” Winton said.

For other companies, outsourcing is a key part of operations.

Two Old Hippies, an Iowa maker and seller of guitars and clothing, manufacture some of its guitars in Korea and others at the Breedlove Guitar Co. shop in Bend.

Two Old Hippies bought Breedlove in 2010 precisely because Breedlove makes instruments in the U.S., said Ryan

Bouslaugh, Two Old Hippies’ marketing director.

“U.S. manufacturing was at the top of (the owners’) wish lists,” Bouslaugh said. “(Co-owner) Tom Bedell, … was actually running an import company and wanted a U.S. manufacturer. …

There’s good craftsmen.

There’s a lot of pride in the work here.”

The Bend employees continue to make the Breedlove instruments. They also finish guitars Two Old Hippies manufactures in Korea before shipping them to customers, Bouslaugh said.

“We actually sell a lot more numbers of (guitars made in Korea) just because they’re more inexpensive guitars,” he said. “Obviously, our pride and joy is the American-made stuff.”

Structus Building Technologies, a Bend maker of drywallcorner finishing products, has

never made any of its products outside of Oregon, CEO Bill Scannell said.

That’s because the company wants to give back by employing local people and sticking with employees who have knowledge that’s hard to duplicate or transfer, Scannell said.

“So, keeping it here suits our business purposes as well as our philanthropic purposes,” he said.

Central Oregon might not be the most ideal place to run a manufacturing operation, but it is a fun, beautiful place to live, with nice people, Scannell said.

“As a manufacturer, those are great reasons to be here,” he said. “Even though it may not be the cheapest way to do business, it’s a good place to have happy employees.”

Microsoft helps startups create business connecting with Kinect

By Janet I. Tu The Seattle Times

SEATTLE — In a conference center room on Microsoft’s Redmond campus last week, a slim, bespectacled CEO clad in a white lab coat was waving his arms wildly.

Behind him, on a flat screen, a cartoon blackbird flapped its wings.

And that is the simple charm behind CEO Kyle Kesterson’s create-your-own-animation project for Microsoft’s Accelerator for Kinect program.

The Seattle startup Kesterson founded, Freak’n Genius, is one of 11 companies chosen for the inaugural class of Accelerator for Kinect, a three-month incubation program for startups run by Microsoft and startup accelerator TechStars. The program provides seed money, mentoring, technical support and networking opportunities for startups with ideas for commercial applications using Microsoft Kinect’s motion- and voice-sensing technologies.

Those companies recently gathered for Demo Day, which was intended to show off the fruits of their labors to venture capitalists and potential investors in hopes they can secure funding to continue to grow their companies.

In one section of the room, Kesterson and his team were throwing in a few “Thriller” dance moves as they demonstrated their project, which uses Kinect for Xbox 360 to create and share short animated videos.

It works like this: You choose from an array of animated characters and backgrounds, stand in front of the Kinect sensor in your home, then make some 2-D movements such as raising your arms or doing a dance move that animates the character on screen. The animation is recorded on video, which can then be shared instantly to, say, YouTube or Facebook.

Users can send an animated Hershey’s Kiss on Valentine’s Day, for instance, or post a video of an animated gingerbread man during the winter holidays.

The company had already gotten off the ground, but the Accelerator program put booster rockets on it.

“The connections we made both within the startup com-

Some of the other companies demonstrating their projects • IKKOS, another Seattle startup, which is incorporating Kinect into its movementtraining program. IKKOS works with athletes, training them to perform better. It’s also teaming up with the Department of Veterans Affairs on a pilot project using its methods, and Kinect, to teach stroke patients how to regain movement.

• GestSure Technologies, which allows surgeons to navigate MRI and CT scans in the operating room with simple arm gestures, preserving the

munity and within Microsoft were invaluable,” said Clayton Weller, chief marketing officer of Freak’n Genius.

The Accelerator for Kinect program is the first of several Accelerator programs for startups that Microsoft is hosting. Later this year, it will offer an Accelerator for Windows Azure program aimed at cloud-based startups.

The Kinect program capitalizes on something Microsoft observed after the launch of the device in November 2010.

People developed unexpected uses for the Kinect, which was sold as an accessory for the Xbox 360 gaming console.

Microsoft dubbed that the “Kinect Effect,” and launched a program for established businesses, as well as startups, to develop commercial Kinect applications.

Microsoft managers expected to get maybe 200 applications for the Accelerator for Kinect program. They ended up with 500 from 60 countries.

“It validated something we suspected but now really saw: That people wanted to build business applications or consumer experiences on this platform,” said Michael Mott, general manager of Microsoft Studios.

The 11 companies chosen — from the U.S., Argentina, France, Germany and Canada — each received an investment of $20,000, an Xbox development kit, the Windows Kinect software development kit, resources from BizSpark (Microsoft’s program to aid startups), technical training and support, and mentorship

• Kimetric, which allows retail stores to use Kinect sensors to track data about their shoppers, including gender, height and emotions.

• Jintronix, which uses Kinect to track patients’ physical rehabilitation movements and relay the information to the health-care provider.

• NConnex, which allows people with Kinect for Windows to scan rooms and then digitally put

from entrepreneurs, investors and Microsoft executives.

They also worked in a shared space in a Microsoft’s offices in Seattle, ending up collaborating sometimes with

furniture into the rooms. Retailers would send images and data on their furniture to NConnex, allowing consumers to scan, say, their living room, then put the furniture in the rooms to get a 3-D look at their space before buying.

• Styku, which allows consumers to scan their body using Kinect, then try on a number of recommended clothing items from retailers.

• Ubi Interactive, which uses Kinect for Windows to turn any surface into a multitouch screen.

founders of some companies serving as volunteer customers for other companies.

Microsoft got some things out of it, too, that it didn’t expect, Mott said.

The mentors from the company “got to soak up some of that entrepreneurial energy and bring it to Redmond,” he said. And, “The team working on the Kinect for Windows platform got to see their technology used in real time by the companies trying to build applications and experiences on it. It sped their insight into what was needed for the platform to be successful for us. That was an ‘aha’ for us.”

According to the program rules, in exchange for the training and seed funding, TechStars will receive 6 percent equity in each of the companies, in the form of common stock. Microsoft does not retain equity in or intellectual property from the participating companies.

SUNDAY, JULY 8, 2012 • THE BULLETIN

Rules Continued from G1 In 2012, mixed signals cloud the mortgage market. The rate of borrowers falling behind on payments is at its lowest level since the first quarter of 2008, according to a June report from the comptroller’s office.

That’s due in part to a slew of refinancing and government-backed programs, like the Making Home Affordable Program, aimed at helping distressed homeowners avoid foreclosure.

But the total value of mortgages is still declining.

In Central Oregon, the biggest change for would-be homebuyers is the stricter underwriting standards today, probing questions and thorough financial background checks, several local mortgage officials said.

“I like to tell clients today that the process can feel forensic,” Liebman said. “People actually have to prove what they say now.”

Several Central Oregon

Apps

loan officers said they are writing a similar amount, or slightly more, loans this year than in 2011.

Still, the days when a job and a 580 credit score could secure a home loan appear over.

At Bank of the Cascades, the number of mortgage loans declined 13.1 percent between the end of 2008 and the end of 2011, Securities and Exchange Commission documents show.

That came after a nearly 70 percent increase from 2005 to 2008.

Mortgage loans at the bank were up slightly in 2011 over 2010, Lance VanSooy, vice president of the bank’s home loan center, pointed out. According to SEC documents, Cascade Bancorp supplied about $83.6 million in mortgages in 2011, versus $82.6 million in 2010.

In February, bank CEO Terry Zink pledged $1 billion in new bank loans through 2014.

Statements in the company’s 2011 year-end financial report, filed with the SEC, highlight the bank’s commitment to

the mortgage market, despite the effects of the real estate crash. The bank was ordered by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. in 2009 to raise capital, after regulators grew concerned over the bank’s level of nonperforming loans.

Hundreds of financial institutions were hit by the mortgage meltdown, so Bank of the Cascades wasn’t alone.

“The Bank has experienced several years of negative loan growth due to the severe economic contraction,” Cascade Bancorp officials noted in the 2011 annual report.

“The Bank is in the process of striving to grow its loan portfolio by refocusing its lenders toward new loan origination opportunities, rebuilding its residential mortgage production capacity, and by expanding customer awareness of its desire to revitalize consumer and small business lending in the communities it serves.”

In the aftermath of the financial market crash, borrower income is under the

spotlight in a way it hasn’t been before, said Rob Moore, president of Arbor Mortgage Group in Bend.

“If you have deposits in a bank account, we have to verify pretty much any amount over $500,” Moore said. “In the past, that wasn’t as big a deal. That’s not to suggest it wasn’t being done. But we’re very heavily scrutinizing everything now. We truly check everything. We need to know the source for people’s down payments.”

And while Liebman, VanSooy and Moore each said they’re writing the same number or more loans today than a year ago, Liebman noted that the increase could be a reflection of fewer mortgage officers employed in Deschutes County today than the number of loans being written.

“There are a lot less of us in the business compared to 2006,” Liebman said, “so those of us that are left are probably busier.”

Digital payment options

Continued from G1 It’s becoming such big business that the largest banks and credit card firms are partnering with wireless carriers, handset makers and eager software developers to push the smartphone further into the center of global commerce.

The plan is to turn your phone into a digital wallet that will let you pay for just about anything, whether you’re online or at the register. By 2016, mobile payments are expected to reach $617 billion worldwide, a nearly sixfold increase from last year’s $105 billion, according to research firm Gartner Inc. By then smartphones are expected to account for close to two-thirds of all U.S. mobile phones.

There are big advantages to electronic money. It’s easier and quicker to process than cash or plastic, and without the need to fish around for credit cards or wait for receipts to print, long lines may become a thing of the past.

What that all tallies up to is that the way we buy and pay for things is in for the biggest change in decades — certainly since the rise of plastic cards in the 1950s, and perhaps since the emergence of personal checks a century earlier.

“We’re going into a world where the consumer is going to be given lots and lots of different choices about how they pay, each with its own perks,” said Carol Coye Benson, a partner at payment consulting firm Glenbrook Partners.

“Cash and credit are the primary methods that everyone uses now, but it won’t look like that in five years.”

Although still embryonic, the world of smartphone payments is developing fast.

Since launching its mobile application last year, Starbucks has processed more than 45 million digital payments in 9,000 locations, and a recent visit to a store in Los Angeles showed why.

The growing crop of digital wallet offerings is making it easy to pay for a variety of everyday things with just a few phone taps. Smartphone applications usually email you an electronic receipt, so no more crumpled wads at the bottom of your purse or pocket. But watch out — once you start paying with your phone, it may be hard to go back to pen, paper and plastic.

• STORES AND RESTAURANTS

• BANKING

Retail stores, coffeehouses and restaurants are increasingly getting wired to accept mobile phone payments. At Starbucks, customers can pay by tapping a downloaded app on the smartphone and then showing the device with the bar code that appears on the screen to the cashier.

The Square app lets users pay for meals at restaurants where it is accepted. When it’s time to check out, tap on the Square icon, tag the eatery and the clerk will see a photo of you pop up on the register’s screen — the equivalent of asking for a photo ID. Once the bill appears on the smartphone, you just have to fill in how much tip you want to leave and tap to complete the transaction.

With PayDragon, you can order and pay for a burger or a sloppy Joe from a local food truck without even being there — when it’s ready, you just walk to the pickup window and grab it.

More stores may soon accept so-called NFC technology to allow a customer to pay by waving his or her phone in front of a credit card terminal, although industry officials agree that it may take another year before many phones and stores are equipped with the technology to do this.

Many online banks have smartphone apps that will let you check your balance and purchase history, as well as transfer funds between accounts. Apps from banks such as Chase and ING also allow customers to deposit funds by using a phone’s camera to snap a picture of a personal check.

Morning coffee customers stood in line, nearly all of them tapping away at their smartphones, sending text messages, reading email or, in one case, playing a poker video game.

When Andy Deer’s turn came to buy a pound of coffee beans, he opened his iPhone’s Starbucks app and tapped “Touch to Pay.” The phone flashed up a bar code, and the cashier scanned it. That was it — $12 disappeared from Deer’s Starbucks account, a receipt arrived in his email inbox and a cartoon star dropped into a cup on the phone’s screen; two more and he would earn a free beverage.

“It’s just a lot easier than carrying another card around,” said Deer, a 37-year-old landscaper from Los Angeles.

Anytime the Starbucks app’s balance falls below $12,

• TICKETS More movie theaters, sporting events and public transit systems are letting users buy and use tickets directly from their smartphones. The StubHub app lets you search for, buy and download sports tickets. Some teams, like the San Francisco Giants, allow fans to enter the stadium by flashing a bar code on their phones, to be scanned like regular tickets. Various subway systems around the U.S. have experimented with letting riders walk through turnstiles by waving their phones.

• COUPONS AND OFFERS Many of the newer digital wallet apps incorporate special coupons and offers. The Starbucks app keeps track of how many drinks you buy, and might offer you a free beverage after your 15th purchase.

Google’s Wallet app allows users to automatically redeem offer coupons — say, half off a $200 helicopter ride in Santa Ana, Calif., — if that store’s register accepts mobile phone payments.

it automatically refills to $25 by pulling from his credit card account. Deer’s iPhone also has an app from Fandango that lets him buy movie tickets, and another from Amazon.com allows him to scan bar codes at a store such as Toys R Us — if Amazon sells the teddy bear for less, he can instantly order it through the Internet retailer.

“I’d be so hip to just having my fingerprint work for everything so I wouldn’t have to carry anything else,” he said.

The increasingly crowded field of companies looking to profit from digital payments also includes giants in the technology, payment and telecommunications industries.

Google Inc. last year introduced its Google Wallet smartphone app, which enables users to load their Visa

or MasterCard number into their phone. The next version of Apple’s iPhone will have a Passbook that will store customer loyalty cards and movie tickets, and Microsoft Corp.’s new phones will do the same.

PayPal is working to let customers at stores such as Home Depot and Foot Locker check out with only a phone number. And Isis, a consortium of Verizon Wireless, AT&T Inc. and T-Mobile, is working with Discover Financial Services to offer a mobile wallet to more than 200 million smartphone users.

“You can think of a zillion ideas about what we can do next,” said Tam Hulusi, a vice president at Orange County’s HID Global Corp., which along with payment services designs digital ID technology that allows people to enter buildings.

Consumer bureau plans to makeover mortgage market Watching other loans

By Edward Wyatt New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — Over the next six months, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, a newly formed regulator vilified by the right, intends to overhaul the home mortgage market as a first step toward improving its fairness and clarity.

The goal is to remake the process of getting a mortgage, making it easier for borrowers to understand the kind of loan they are getting and its cost.

Such an achievement by the bureau — a lightning rod for criticism of the Dodd-Frank regulatory law passed by Congress in 2010 — would help to establish its legitimacy and quietits criticsas it approaches its first birthday this month.

Richard Cordray, a former Ohio attorney general who is the director of the bureau, said he wanted to show that the bureau could help consumers without drowning banks in red tape.

“We have an overarching goal here,” Cordray said, “which is to restore trust in the consumer financial marketplace. I don’t think we are just a regulatory body or just an enforcement body.”

The mortgage market is at the top of the agenda because “it’s the market where consumers have the most at risk and they have the most at stake,” Cordray said. “I expect that the mortgage market in the fairly near term will look different in the sense that, first of all, it will be a clearer and more straightforward place for consumers, and second, it will be a more reliable market.”

This summer, the consumer bureau plans to propose rules that will address the biggest stumbling blocks buyers face. When shopping for a loan, consumers will get a more complete and understandable “good faith estimate” of the costs.

Before closing a sale, consumers will receive a single, revamped disclosure form of the terms — the interest rate that they will pay, how it could change over the course of the loan and how much cash is needed at closing.

And mortgage servicers, the companies that collect the payments, will be required to provide clearer information, better service and options for a borrower facing foreclosure.

Heading toward July 21, its anniversary, the consumer bureau has other goals, like defining which nonbank financial companies will fall under the “larger participant” designation that will make them subject to the bureau’s oversight.

It is scheduled to complete a study of the private student loan market. Last month, Congress approved a one-year extension of subsidized student loan interest rates, which means the issue will probably be the subject of political jockeying next summer.

The bureau also recently released an early version of a database of consumer complaints against credit card companies that will be expanded to include other financial service providers.

“It was an important step, although an imperfect one,” said Bartlett Naylor, a financial policy analyst for the consumer group Public Citizen, who said he hoped that the database would make it easier for consumers to learn from others’ experiences.

Cordray said that the consumer bureau’s activities would soon also reflect another part of its mandate — enforcement of consumer protection laws.

“There will be enforcement action this year, and we have quite a bit of activity going on,” he said, though he declined to offer specifics.

Jess Sharp, executive director of the Chamber of Commerce’s Center for Capital Markets Competitiveness, said the bureau needed to be clearer about how it would enforce its rules — beginning with, for example, defining “abusive,” a term included in the Dodd-Frank law but which is new in consumer protection law.

On Capitol Hill, the agency will probably face resistance from Republicans who dislike the creation of a government agency that they say lacks accountability. They want to change the bureau to a five-person commission, subjecting it to greater congressional control.

“After six months, the only definitive conclusion one can reach about the CFPB is that it’s a rapidly expanding bureaucracy that is increasing costs on small businesses and remains completely unaccountable to the American people,” said Sen. Richard Shelby of Alabama, the ranking Republican on the Senate banking committee.

The State National Bank of Big Spring, Texas, has filed a lawsuit in federal court in Washington challenging the constitutionality of the consumer bureau and other aspects of the Dodd-Frank law.

Don’t let A/C cause A great SUV thwarted by high tech friction in marriage 2013 FORD ESCAPE

By David Undercoffler Los Angeles Times

By Paul Brand

Ralph Waldo Emerson once said, “To be simple is to be great.” Memo to the minds behind Ford’s 2013 Escape: Read more Emerson.

At its core, this completely redesigned compact sport-utility vehicle is a great vehicle.

It is comfortable, capable and not bad to look at.

Yet the $36,025 Escape Titanium four-wheel drive I tested piled on REVIEW too many layers of unreliable technology. The effect was more instances of teeth-grinding, fist-clenching, guttural wails of undiluted anger than my blood pressure cares to admit.

The foot-activated power tailgate worked when it wanted to, the detection system for backing up was hyperactive, and the navigation system literally couldn’t find itself.

This, in an age when GPS devices are so ubiquitous that I’m pretty sure there’s one on my washing machine telling me how to get to the dryer.

So if you like the Escape as an alternative to the Honda CRV, Toyota RAV4 or Chevy Equinox, do yourself a favor and avoid the technological woes of the high-end models. There are plenty of simple tasks that the Escape is good at.

Like driving. Around town or on the freeway, my preproduction model (the Escape is on sale now) was always well-mannered and a pleasure to pilot. It’s sporty when you want to have some fun, thanks largely to the fancy-pants four-wheel-drive option that uses torque vectoring to push power to the outside wheels to maximize traction (frontwheel drive is standard).

Meanwhile, in everyday driving the suspension always impresses you with its comfort.

The engine on my tester was practically hedonistic for this segment. Rather than offering the Escape with an optional V-6 as it has in the past, Ford wisely dropped into the top engine spot a more fuel-efficient 2.0-liter turbocharged four-cylinder from a family of engines dubbed EcoBoost.

This one makes 240 horsepower and 270 pound-feet of torque; that’s plenty for a vehicle of this size and it will propel the Escape from zero to 60 in 6.8 seconds, according to Truck Trend.

A key benefit of an engine this powerful in a small SUV like this is towing capacity. The model I tested can tow 3,500 pounds; this compares with a few competitors that offer only one engine, which maxes out at about 1,500 pounds.

This power is a plus for buyers who don’t want to jump up to a vehicle the size of a small principality just because they have a boat to move.

This engine is standard on the top-end Titanium model

Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

Is it possible for an air-conditioning comQ: pressor to go bad so quickly?

Ford / McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Ford loaded the redesigned 2013 Escape with high-tech features and futuristic styling to appeal to customers in Europe, China and every part of America.

2013 Ford Escape Base price: $23,295 As tested: $36,025 (Escape Titanium 4WD) Type: four-door compact sport-utility vehicle Engine: 2.0-liter, DOHC incline four-cylinder turbocharged engine with direct injection; six-speed automatic transmission with sport mode and manual shifting; permanent four-wheel drive Mileage: 21 mpg city, 28 mpg highway

and optional on the SE and SEL models. If you’re not towing or would just rather save money and lose some power, Ford offers a smaller 1.6-liter turbocharged engine that makes 178 horsepower and 184 pound-feet of torque. It’s this engine that probably will be the volume seller of the Escape lineup and is found on models starting at $25,895.

Safety features standard on all Escapes include seven air bags, traction control with roll stability control, ABS with brake assist and a tire-pressure monitoring system.

Also standard across the board is a six-speed automatic transmission. Although occasionally slow to respond, the gearbox generally stays out of your way and does its job without fuss. Drop the transmission into Sport mode, and you can shift it manually via buttons on the shift knob.

Yet perhaps the best feature of all these mechanicals is how quietly they work together. Indeed, the entire experience of riding in an Escape is one of silent comfort; the taut exterior (think a Ford Focus in a high chair) slips through the wind quietly.

Thus, outside noise is all but banished from the cabin, even at highway speeds. The heated,

leather front seats in my tester elevate the satisfaction quotient, which is only slightly offset by stiff, flat rear seats that feel like you’re sitting on a Sears catalog.

Buyers comparing interior space should note that the Escape trails most of its competitors in passenger and cargo volume. Yet the cabin never feels small, and there’s plenty of headroom and legroom for charges of all shapes and sizes.

The rear seats also fold completely flat for those proverbial sheets of plywood we buy every weekend.

But here’s hoping you have plenty of time to navigate to that lumber yard — the GPS system might not be much help.

Because the model I tested was the grand poohbah Titanium edition, it included an optional navigation system. The nav is integrated into MyFord Touch, an eight-inch touch screen on the dashboard that comes standard on the Titanium and SEL. This touch screen works with the voice-activated Sync system to control the stereo, phone and climate.

We got off to a rough start when Sync wouldn’t connect with my phone, a first since I’ve owned it. Then I needed directions, and our relationship got really ugly. Twice the input screen froze for almost a minute. Once, halfway through a trip, the entire MyFord Touch system crashed and wouldn’t reboot until I pulled over and restarted the vehicle.

But the most common problem was the nav’s wanderlust.

After entering a destination, the vehicle icon would float around the map for as long as 20 minutes while the system tried to figure out where the Escape actually was. This happened throughout my week with the vehicle, whether I was moving or parked, and in locations all across the Los Angeles area.

Problems with Ford’s Sync system aren’t limited to pre-

Refrigerant leak can be hard to find

By Brad Bergholdt McClatchy-Tribune News Service

a mechanic. What are your thoughts on how to proceed?

— Tom Jones Tom, It sounds like the Deville has a small refrigerant leak that may have gotten worse, or the technician that recently serviced the car is a bit fussier than the previous one regarding what’s considered tolerable leakage.

An air conditioning compressor may require replacement due to internal mechanical problems or refrigerant leakage from its shaft seal or housing. Since your A/C works OK at road speed, I’m guessing the compressor is OK mechanically but may have a leaking seal or housing o-ring.

The condenser is a large, flat aluminum heat exchanger that’s mounted in front of the radiator. These can develop refrigerant leakage due to mechanical injury or vibration-induced cracking of tubes, fittings or mounting tab attachments.

It’s a shame the dealer’s

I have a 1998 Cadillac Q: Deville with Northstar engine at 130,000 miles. Last A: summer, I noticed the A/C was blowing warm air, so I took it to the dealer. They charged the system and it worked great all last summer. This summer, the same thing happened, but they told me I needed a new compressor or condenser at a cost of $675. But I noticed that at highway speeds of 55 to 60 mph, it blows relatively cool air. But at low speeds and at idle such as at stop signs or red lights, it blows very warm air.

If the compressor or condenser is bad, how does it blow cool air at highway speeds?

This has been a great car, with all the regular recommended maintenance. Great gas mileage for a full size car and with front wheel drive and traction engagement, it is great for our Pennsylvania winters.

We have had a few 90-degree days that are brutal. I am not

service adviser didn’t communicate a little more clearly as to exactly which part or parts needed replacement and why.

The price you were quoted sounds about right for one of these parts to be renewed, but too low for both. Diagnosing small leaks can be tricky. Any detectable leakage from an injured component justifies immediate repair, but a tiny amount of leakage from the compressor shaft seal or a fitting o-ring may be considered tolerable.

The reason the Deville cools somewhat at road speed but not at idle is likely due to higher compressor RPM and increased airflow across the condenser. This indicates also that the system has leaked perhaps only about half of its 32 ounces of refrigerant.

I’d check back with the dealer for clarification on why the repairs were recommended.

production test vehicles and aren’t new. The car-buying public has noticed too. Last year, Ford’s rankings plunged in consumer surveys by J.D. Power & Associates and Consumer Reports, with an oftcited reason being difficulties with Sync. Ford responded by sending customers flash drives with an update but clearly there is more work to be done.

The other technologies had their problems, too. The handsfree power liftgate claims to open with a subtle kick beneath the rear bumper, but in reality needed all sorts of foot gestures, jabs and wiggles to get the hatch to open. The cross-path detection, designed to alert you specifically to objects moving into your path as you back up, seemed to think parked cars and the large oak outside my apartment posed a threat. At least the self-park feature worked as advertised.

If you’re justifiably interested in buying a 2013 Escape, take not only the vehicle for a test-drive, but also any tech options too. Get it away from the dealer’s lot, pull over, and ask it to do real-life chores such as navigating to your house or detecting errant children. If these features seem like systems you can live with, consider taking it home.

Our daughter bought a 2007 Nissan Altima with 72,000 miles last August from a dealership, and now the A/C doesn’t work. She was told the compressor is dead.

She’ll get a second opinion, but I’m also wondering what your opinion might be.

Secondly, my husband drives a 2000 Jeep with 180,000 miles on it. A mechanic told him that to “save the life of his A/C” he should use the recirculate button. He said the A/C unit won’t work as hard or cycle as much, and that’ll keep him from having to deal with a similar problem that my daughter has. But I find it irritating because recirculated air gets stale and doesn’t cool as efficiently in his car. I use the recirculate button only when we’re following a stinky bus or truck. I can’t seem to influence him on this, and if the A/C does die, he’ll blame it on not using the recirculate button, so it’s a no-win situation. What’s the real story?

A marriage issue, perhaps? The Jeep is his vehicle, so why not let him operate it as he chooses? The recirculate button, by closing off outside air intake to the system, allows the system to cool more quickly and efficiently, particularly in high temperature-high humidity conditions. I’m not sure this would be a significant factor in compressor life, but it certainly won’t damage anything.

The problem with your daughter’s Nissan may not be the compressor itself. It may be the compressor clutch, engine management system or HVAC control module not signaling the compressor to engage.

A:

I own a 1994 Ford Q: Thunderbird with a V-8 engine with automatic transmission and 146,000 miles.

When the weather is hot, my car downshifts randomly either one or two gears momentarily and then upshifts back to overdrive. I can go months without a problem and then

it can occur multiple times in the same day. There are no slippage problems with the transmission. Would you suspect an electronic problem?

Ask yourself this question: What operational parameters would mandate a downshift? Factors would include a higher throttle setting, lower manifold vacuum, change in vehicle speed or a transmission in “limp mode.”

Check the sensors and electronics that communicate these parameters: throttle position sensor for a dead spot, manifold absolute pressure sensor for connections, contamination or intake air leaks, vehicle speed sensor for intermittent or inconsistent signal.

If no electronic problems are identified, worn valve body or clutch components inside the transmission are a possibility.

A:

I drive a four-cylinder Q: 2008 Chevy Malibu with 31,000 miles on it. The car has a slow-speed miss. It does it when you are between 10 and 30 miles per hour. It does not do it above 30 mph.

I’ve had it to the dealer twice for repair, but they cannot find the trouble.

With the sophisticated engine and transmission management systems on modern vehicles, I’m surprised the dealer did not find any diagnostic fault codes.

Any consistent misfire should trigger and store a code.

My Alldata automotive database pulled up service bulletin 03-06-04-030G, dated April 2009, dealing with injector deposits and describing GM’s fuel injector cleaning and testing procedure in detail.

Here’s an idea. Find a shop with a chassis dynamometer and run the car in gear while it’s connected to an electronic engine analyzer. If they can duplicate the scenario and experience the misfire, the analyzer should pinpoint which cylinder and the probable cause.

Ask Marilyn

By Marilyn vos Savant Your answer to the puzzle about a tourist and a $100 round-robin payment is incorrect. [Readers may view the puzzle at Parade.com/tourist.]

You said everyone stayed the same, but they didn’t. The party planner paid her $100 debt to the hotel, but as the tourist recovered his $100 bill, the hotel is out $100 for the use of the party room. Or am I missing something? —Roberta

ILLUSTRATION: GRAFILU

McDougall, Blaine, Wash.

You’re missing something! But you have plenty of company.

Many readers wrote to say that my answer was wrong. Some said I was showing a liberal bias; others stated I had a conservative bias; and still others declared something worse— that my answer was illogical!

Think of it another way. The tourist laid his $100 bill on the counter, decided against the room, and then took it back.

So his situation stayed even.

Now consider: (1) the hotel; (2) the butcher; (3) the wholesaler; (4) the farmer; and (5) the party planner. Before the tourist arrived, the hotel owed $100 to the butcher, who owed $100 to the wholesaler, who owed $100 to the farmer, who owed $100 to the party planner, who owed $100 to the hotel. Everyone owed someone else $100. Also, everyone was due $100 from someone else.

Afterward, no one owed anything, and no one was due anything. So they’re even, too.

What’s Going On

INSIDE YOUR PET’S HEAD?

BY CATHERINE PRICE

©฀PARADE฀Publications฀2012.฀All฀rights฀reserved.

ou love them, you feed them, you welcome them into your homes and even your beds. But no matter how much you share with your dog, he can’t tell you why he just spent 20 minutes settling on a place to pee. And your cat is never going to attach a note to the dead mouse she just left on your doorstep. That’s why PARADE rounded up some experts (human ones!) to help clear up pet owners’ top head-scratchers.

Y

1

Why do dogs drool (and why do some dogs drool more than others)?

If your pup’s friendly welcome leaves your clothes looking like they’ve been attacked by a giant slug, you can probably thank his genes: Certain breeds’ lips just leak more than others.

Notorious droolers like Newfoundlands, bloodhounds, and basset hounds have loose jowls and lots of skin around their mouths where saliva can accumulate, making it far too easy for them to share their slobber.

As for the reasons for drooling, dogs are like humans: Their mouths release saliva in the presence of food, or when they’re anxious or excited. This behavior is perfectly normal, but if your dog begins to slobber more than usual, or if the saliva smells bad, you may want to swing by the vet: A wound in the mouth (from, say, a splinter), a dental infection, or even poisoning might be behind it.

2

Why do cats chase balls of string?

Your cat’s obsession with yarn is not unlike a lion’s interest in a gazelle: Stalking string is a predatory behavior, a very watered-down and domesticated version of a hunt. “This type of play is good

for cats; it helps discharge their prey-chasing instinct, and it also keeps them physically active and alleviates boredom,” says veterinarian Michael W. Fox, syndicated pet columnist and author of Cat Body, Cat Mind. But since string can damage a cat’s digestive system if swallowed, try substituting a laser pointer—many cats love to chase its light.

3

Why do dogs chase their tails?

“Sometimes, it’s just a sign that the dog is craving interaction and playtime,” says Warren Eckstein, an animal behaviorist and therapist and host of the syndicated radio program The Pet Show. If that’s the case, you might put a stop to it by distracting your dog with another activity, like fetching a ball or tugging a rope. But if g—or biting— tail-chasing—or becomes a ritual (say, before de or getting going outside fed), or if itt becomes excessive (the dog works itselff zy), into a frenzy), nal it could signal ean obsessivecompulsive disorder es help that requires imal from an animal behaviorist or a vet.

4

Why do cats present their owners with “kills”?

Experts agree that if your cat leaves a mouse on your doorstep, you should take it as a complimen compliment. “It’s actually a very warm friendly thing for a warm, cat to do,” says Patricia Mc McConnell, certified anim animal behaviorist and auth of The Other End author of the Leash. “It’s kind of like br bringing flowers.” If the mouse is dead, it’s probably just a gift, g similar to the kill a lion brings back to its p id But if the animal is pr pride. sst til breathing, your cat still m may also be mimicking

a behavior she displays with her kittens: bringing half-dead animals home to teach her babies (or, in this case, you) how to finish the job.

5

Is it true that dogs are color-blind?

Dogs do see color but, much like color-blind humans, they have difficulty distinguishing between certain hues. Humans have three types of cones (the cells in the eye that recognize color); dogs have only two. As a result, they see fewer colors than we do, and these colors are less rich. (Cats also have only two types of cones, and they see colors even less vividly than dogs.)

“The common form of color blindness in people is red-green color blindness, and that’s really what dogs have, too,” says Jay Neitz, Ph.D., a professor of ophthalmology and a color vision researcher at the University of Washington in Seattle.

For dogs, the rainbow is reduced to two colors, “blue at one end and yellow at the other, with colorless bands where pure red and pure green would be.” But don’t feel too sorry for your pup: What dogs lack in colorperceiving cones they make up for in an abundance of rods, the cells in the eye that aid night vision. They are also exceptionally good at spotting movement, which is why your dog is aware of every squirrel in your yard even when he’s got all four paws inside.

Why do cats hate getting wet?

They don’t. Well, at least not all of them—some breeds of cats, like Turkish Vans, will actively seek out water. What they do hate are unplanned soakings: slipping into a pool or

being squirted with a garden hose or disciplined with a spray bottle.

If you have a kitten and want to teach him not to fear a bath, Eckstein recommends the following technique: Place the kitten in a dry sink on a nonskid mat for several minutes with some treats.

Repeat this for a few days. Then slowly add a bit of water to the sink each day. “Eventually, your cat will come to associate water and bath time with rewards, rather than punishment,” says Eckstein.

into the past and into the future,” says Bill Roberts, Ph.D., professor emeritus of psychology at Western University in Ontario. For years, experts assumed that animals were stuck in the here and now, but Roberts, who studies animal cognition, says that recent research shows that pets may possess at least a limited mental timeline.

In one of the most famous studies, researchers from the University of Cambridge and UC Davis allowed scrub jays to hide wax worms and peanuts in different locations and then permitted the birds to retrieve the treats either four hours or five days later. The birds prefer worms, so it was no surprise that after the four-hour delay, the jays sought them out before the peanuts.

But worms don’t last as long as peanuts, and so after five days—at which point the worms were well past their expiration date—the jays sought out the peanuts before the worms. This suggested that the jays had a sense of when the food had been cached.

8

Do pets have any sense of time?

Animals, like humans, have internal body clocks that are sensitive to the time of day. They also can accurately measure intervals between events; if a rat receives a reward for sticking its head in a feeder one minute after hearing a tone, it will start poking its head in more frequently as the 60-second mark approaches. “The more controversial question is whether they have a sense of time that extends well

9

Why do dogs pant? (And what about cats?)

Panting is a way for dogs to cool off. (It can also be a sign of excitement.) Both cats and dogs have sweat glands on the pads of their paws, but these aren’t enough to effectively cool their entire bodies. Panting, which brings quick gusts of air over dogs’ moist tongues, is much more effective. Overheated cats will pant, too—they’re just less likely to spend a scorching afternoon chasing squirrels.

10

Are onions and chocolate really poisonous to pets?

Yes—but for different reasons, and to varying degrees, says veterinarian Ahna Brutlag, assistant director of veterinary services at the Pet Poison Helpline.

Why do dogs sniff around so much before deciding where to pee?

“Before there was Facebook, there were telephone poles,” jokes Stephen Zawistowski, Ph.D., science adviser for the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. Canines’ highly acute sense of smell enables them to gather all sorts of information from the scents of other dogs’ urine, including which dogs passed by, how long ago they visited, even whether they were male or female. “It’s like a news feed; your dog is just taking his time to read everything that happened before he got there,” Zawistowski explains.

Chocolate contains a chemical called theobromine, related to caffeine, that dogs and cats can’t metabolize as well as humans can.

If they ingest too much of the chemical, the result is similar to what might happen if you took a handful of caffeine pills: agitation, pacing, and panting. In worst-case scenarios, it can lead to cardiac arrhythmias, seizures, or even death. The darker the chocolate, the more theobromine it contains and the more poisonous it will be—just two to three ounces of baking chocolate can be toxic to a 50-pound dog. Theobromine is also toxic to cats, but for some reason—maybe because they lack taste receptors for sweetness—they tend to have less of an appetite for chocolate than dogs do.

Onions, along with garlic, leeks, and chives, contain chemicals called propyl disulfides and thiosulfates, which damage pets’ red blood cells. It doesn’t matter whether the vegetables are fresh, frozen, cooked, or freeze-dried: In high enough doses, they can cause the walls of the red blood cells to weaken and break down; in the most serious cases, a blood transfusion is needed. Cats are more vulnerable to these chemicals than dogs; a little more than a tablespoon of raw onions will poison a 10-pound cat. The most telltale symptom is intense lethargy, which can begin anywhere from a day to three days after ingestion.

Mood-Boosting Superfoods “Just as premium gasoline makes for a smoother-running car, brain-friendly foods can make for a smoother mood,” says Oregon-based dietitian Elizabeth Somer, author of Eat Your Way to Happiness.

That’s because food is the No. 1 source of the chemical building blocks that regulate emotions and increase well-being. Want to brighten your outlook? Add these six ingredients to your diet.

Tomatoes The molecules that give this fruit its characteristic red, orange, or yellow hue are carotenoids, antioxidants that counteract the damage wrought by free radicals, which destroy mood-protecting fats in the brain. A 2011 study from the National Institute on Aging found that older people who filled up on carotenoid-rich foods were 28 percent less likely to be depressed. And “people with high blood levels of carotenoids have lower rates of memory loss and dementia,” says Drew Ramsey, M.D., a Columbia University psychiatrist specializing in nutrition and coauthor of The Happiness Diet.

Happiness-boosting Rx: One serving (about a cup) of tomatoes a day—either fresh or in tomato-based sauces or lowsugar ketchup or salsa.

Whole Grains Noshing on carbs promotes the release of insulin, a hormone

that stimulates serotonin production, Somer says. (To avoid a blood sugar spike, choose whole grains over the processed variety.) Avoid eating carbs and proteins together; doing so can block the effects of serotonin, says Somer.

Happiness-boosting Rx: Two cups of air-popped popcorn or whole-grain graham crackers.

Fatty Fish More than half of the human brain is composed of fat, and two types seem to be crucial to mood: the omega-3 fats DHA and EPA, found in fish such as salmon and mackerel. Last year, scientists analyzed the blood of U.S. veterans who had committed suicide and found far lower levels of DHA than were found in veterans who reported no suicidal feelings.

And in December 2011, a research review by the New York State Psychiatric Institute concluded that EPA can significantly reduce the symptoms of depression.

Happiness-boosting Rx: At least two servings of seafood, especially fatty fish, each week.

Dark Chocolate Chocolate—particularly the dark kind, which by definition consists of at least 60 percent cocoa—is thought to increase the brain’s serotonin levels.

Chocolate may also increase mental alertness: In a 2010 study, British researchers asked 30 people to drink cocoa

drinks or similar-tasting cocoa-free drinks and then gave them a series of cognitive tasks, like solving arithmetic problems. Those who drank the cocoa performed significantly better and felt less mentally drained afterward.

Happiness-boosting Rx: One ounce of dark chocolate a day.

Spinach These leafy greens are loaded with folate, a B vitamin the brain uses to make several mood-regulating chemicals, including serotonin, dopamine, and norepinephrine. (Other folate-packed foods include lentils and asparagus.) “Up to 50 percent of people with depression are folate-deficient,” says Ramsey. A 2010 report from the American Psychiatric Association even noted that folate may be effective in treating depression.

Happiness-boosting Rx: One to two cups of spinach, or another folate-rich food, each day.

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.

Red Meat We know, we know—red meat has its detractors. But it’s an incredibly good source of iron, which the brain needs to make mood-regulating chemicals like dopamine; in fact, people who are irondeficient may be 50 percent more likely to become depressed than those with higher iron levels. Ramsey recommends meat from grass-fed cows; it contains more happiness-promoting omega-3 fats than beef from conventionally raised cows.

Stick to lean, unprocessed cuts—more roast beef, fewer hot dogs. (Vegetarian? Though it’s harder to absorb iron from non-meat sources, the best bets are beans, dried fruits, and whole grains.)

Happiness-boosting Rx: Two small servings of red meat each week—a total of 8 to 12 ounces.

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.

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?

aren’t triggered by fur, as is commonly believed, but by dander— a general term for protein materials, present in animals’ skin, urine, and saliva, that cause immune responses in people who are sensitive to them. A low-shed breed like the Obamas’ Portuguese water dog may leave less dander-covered fur lying around, but—no offense to Bo—it’s allergenic all the same.

Still, some simple steps can reduce dander in your home.

The most important one: Keep your pet out of your bedroom.

“The animal should have its own sleeping space, with a mat that is washable,” says Angel Waldron, spokesperson for the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America. She also suggests covering any ventilation grates in the pet’s room with a piece of cheese cloth or gauze.

“Dander is so light that once it gets airborne, it can travel easily from room to room through your ventilation system.”

Next, clean rugs and carpets weekly using an asthma- and allergy-friendly vacuum cleaner with a HEPA filter, and dust hard surfaces with special dander-trapping wipes or a damp cloth. Wash linens frequently in hot water (over 130 degrees) and avoid heavy curtains, which are magnets for allergens. “You’ll never entirely rid your house of dander,” says Waldron. “But at least you can minimize your exposure.”

Do you rub sticks together to make fire?

No, we just rub dollars together to get kerosene.

My most romantic job: I was a manager at Baskin-Robbins.

Did you get sick of ice cream?

That’s one thing I’m never sick of. But when you’re 18, you can eat five scoops every day.

dinner—my wife makes a great roast beef.

Does Finnigan know you’re famous?

He understood fame before he understood why, because you don’t show Will & Grace to a 5-year-old. He came to the play [McCormack is ending a Broadway run in The Best Man], and he liked watching me yell at people.

Why do so many actors and comedians—yourself, Michael J. Fox, Jim Carrey, and Mike Myers, to name just a few—hail from Canada?

I think there’s a certain objectivity that comes from being Canadian. You’re partly British and partly American; you have a good bird’s-eye view of both countries. So much of the comedy that comes out of Canada is impersonation—it’s less “look at me” than it is “look at me playing other people.”

It seems like every actor from Canada also plays hockey.

No hockey for me! It was encouraged, but it didn’t take. I used to joke that there’d be much less violence if you just gave every player a puck; then they wouldn’t have to fight over it.

10-year-old son, Finnigan, is just catching up with Will & Grace, the show that made his dad a star, though “he doesn’t understand all the jokes,” McCormack says. Perhaps one day he’ll understand why Vice President Biden has said that the series, which ran from 1998 to 2006, “probably did more to educate the American public [about gay rights] than almost anything anybody’s ever done so far.”

McCormack, 49, loved the shout-out. “We never set out to be political or educational,” he says, “but there’s no doubt in my mind that Will & Grace has been an agent for good.”

The actor’s new character, the brilliant, schizophrenic college professor Daniel Pierce on Perception (TNT, Mondays, 10 p.m. ET), is also an agent for good—but this time for the FBI, which enlists his help in solving crimes. “The fun of the show,” McCormack tells Roger Friedman, “is the hallucination stuff—who’s real and who isn’t.”

What To Look For in a Walk-In Tub: Five major considerations to help make an informed decision before buying a Walk-In Tub: ➻ Quality - A walk-in tub is a major investment. You want to find a quality tub that will last for decades. Look for one that’s 100% leakproof, mold-resistant, full metal frame construction and one that’s American made. ➻ Warranty - Ask for a lifetime “no leak guarantee.” The best tubs offer a lifetime warranty on both the tub and the operating system. ➻ Pain Relieving Therapy - Find a tub that has both water and air jet therapy to soak away your aches and pains preferably with a perfectly balanced water to air mix. ➻ Comfort - Insist on ergonomic design, easy-to-reach controls. ➻ Endorsements - Only consider tubs that are ETL or UL listed.

Also look for a tub tested to IAPMO (International Association of Plumbing and Mechanical Officials) standards and that’s USPC (Universal Spa Plumbing Code) Certified.
