• The House passed the bill by a vote of 257-167 as both sides look to what's next Bulletin wire reports WASHINGTON — Ending a climactic fiscal showdown in the final hours of the 112th Congress, the House late Tuesday passed and sent to President Barack Obama legislation to avert big income tax increases on most Americans andprevent large cuts in spending for the Pentagon and other government programs.

The measure, brought to the House floor less than 24 hours after its passage in the Senate, passed 257-167, with 85 Republicans joining 172 Democrats in voting to allow income taxes to rise for the first time in two decades, in this case for the highest-earning Americans. Voting no were 151 Republicans and 16 Democrats.

First passed by the Senate early Tuesday, the deal will head off the most severe effects of the "fiscal cliff" by averting a dangerous dose of austerity but still leaves the economy vulnerable to both immediate and more distant threats.

The agreement fails to defusethe prospect ofa catastrophic national default two

months from now. The deal does not raise the debt ceiling, leaving the Treasury to use what it calls "extraordinary measures" as long as it can to pay the government's bills.

And already Tuesday, both sideswere maneuvering for the next round in a seemingly ceaseless struggle about taxes and spending.

Bulletin staff report The number of flu cases in and around Bend is on the rise, a not-so-subtle reminder to get your flushot beforethe season really peaks in February, local health experts said Monday.

Lisa Goodman, spokeswoman for St. Charles Health System, said the number of tests administered at hospitals in Bend, Redmond and Prineville has doubled over the last month. An increase in tests means doctors and clinicians are seeing more cases they suspect could be influenza.

"It's a good pulse of what's going on, and that's about all you can do with the flu, unless we see a novel strain," said Patty Thomas, communicable disease supervisor for Deschutes County Health Services. "And we're not seeing that this year."

The actual number of flu cases, particularly influenza A, rose appreciably in Bend in December. Two patients tested positive for influenza B and none tested positive for the A strain in November, out of 78 tests administered, according to recordsprovided by the health care system. But in December, three patients tested positive for the B strain and 35 tested positive for A, out of 167 tested.

physical edge.

The drinks are now under scrutiny by the Food and Drug Administration after reports of deaths and serious injuries that may be linked to their high caffeine levels. But however that review ends, one thing is clear, interviews with researchers and a review of scientific studies show: the energy drink industry is based on a brew of ingredients that, apart from caffeine, have little, if any benefit for consumers.

"If you had a cup of coffee you are going to affect metabolism in the same way," said Robert Pettitt, an associate professor at Minnesota State University in Mankato, who has studied the drinks.

Energy drink companies have promoted their products not as caffeine-fueled concoctions but as specially engineered blends that provide something more.

Nearly two months after winning voter approval for a $29 million bond, the Bend Park 8 Recreation District is figuring out how to tackle a long list of promised land acquisitions and park improvements.

A few are purple. After the November election, New Hampshire turned pink.

Women won the state's two congressionalseats.Women already held the state's two Senate seats. When they are all sworn into office on Thursday, New Hampshire will become the first state in the nation's history to send an all-female delegation to Washington.

Clinton on blood thinnersfor clot The Associated Press WASHINGTON — S ecretary of State Hillary Clinton continuesto recover in a New York hospital where she's being treated for a blood clot in her head.

Her doctors say blood thinners arebeing used to dissolve the clot and they are confident she will make a full recovery.

Clinton didn't suffer a stroke or neurological damage from the clot that formed after she suffered a concussion during a fainting spell at her home in earlyDecember, doctors said in a statement Monday.

Clinton, 65, was admitted to N e w Yo r k -Presbyterian Hospital on Sunday when the clot turned up on a follow-up exam on the concussion, Clinton spokesman Phillipe Reines said. The clot is located in the vein in the space between the brain and the skull behind the right ear. She will be released once the medication dose for the bloodthinners has been established, the doctors said.

In their statement, Dr. Lisa Bardack of the Mount Kisco Medical Group and Dr. Gigi ElBayoumi of George Washington University said Clinton was making excellent progress and was in good spirits.

Clinton's complication "certainly isn't the most common thing to happen after a concussion" and is one of the few types of blood clots in the skull or head that are treated with blood thinners, said Dr. Larry Goldstein, a neurologist who is director of Duke University's stroke center. He is not involved

in Clinton's care.

The area where Clinton's clot developed is "a drainage channel, the equivalent of a big vein inside the skull. It's how the blood gets back to the heart," Goldstein said.

Blood thinners usually are enough to treat the clot and it should have no long-term consequences if her doctors are saying she has suffered no neurological damage from it, Goldstein said.

Clinton returned to the U.S. from a trip to Europe, then fell ill with a stomach virus in early December that left her severely dehydrated and forced her to cancel a trip to North Africa and the Middle East. Until then, she had canceled only two scheduled overseas trips, one to Europe after breaking her elbow in June 2009 and one to Asia after the February 2010 earthquake in Haiti.

Her c o ndition w o r sened when she fainted, fell and suffered a concussion while at home alone in mid-December as sherecovered from thevirus.

This isn't the first time Clinton has suffered a blood clot.

In 1998, midway through her husband's second term as president, Clinton was in New York fundraising for the midterm elections when a swollen right foot led her doctor to diagnose a clot in her knee requiring immediate treatment.

Clinton had planned to step down as secretary of state at the beginning of President Barack Obama's second term. Whether she will return to work before she resignsremains a question.

Democrats are privately if not publicly speculating: How might her illness affect a decision about running for president in 2016'?

Afterdecades inpolitics, Clinton saysshe plans to spend the next year resting. She has long insisted she had no intention of mounting a second campaign for the White House four years from now. But the door is not entirely closed, and she would almost certainly emerge as the Democrat to beat if she decided to give in to calls by Democratic fans and run again.

Her age — andtherebyhealth — would probably be a factor under consideration, given that Clinton would be 69 when sworn in, if she were elected in 2016. That might become even more of an issue in the early jockeying for 2016 if what started as a bad stomach bug becomes a prolonged, public bout with more serious infirmity.

Not that Democrats are willing to talk openly about the political implications of a long illness, choosing to keep any discussions about her condition behind closed doors. Publicly, Democrats reject the notion that a blood clot could hinder her political prospects.

"Some of t hose concerns could be b orderline sexist," said Basil Smikle, a Democratic strategist who worked for Clinton when she was a senator. "Dick Cheney had significant heart problems when he was vicepresident,and people joked about it. He took the time he needed to get better, and it wasn't a problem."

IlllllOIS pellSIOIIS —As lllinois lawmakers head back to work this week, Gov. Pat Quinn is seeking to use the practical advantages of

watched it grow andgrow, nowreaching, by some estimates, $96 billion. Quinn, a Democrat, has come to describe the situation as the state's "rendezvous with reality" and lllinois' own "fiscal cliff."

rose on some and government spending was untouched. A party that once disputed that there was any real "cost" of tax cuts encountered sticker shock when the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimated that enactingthem in place of the "fiscal diff' provisions would cost $4 trillion over 10 years.

"I personally hate it," Rep. John Campbell, R-Calif., said of the bill. "The speaker the day after the election said we would give on taxes, and we have, but we wanted spending cuts. This bill has spending increases. Are you kidding me?"

The bill's heft was confirmed on Tuesday by the Congressional Budget Office, which said it would add an estimated $4 trillion to the federal deficit compared with where the government would be if Congress did nothing to halt the automatic tax increases and spending cuts.

• The measurewould raise taxes by about $600 billion over policies that were due to expire at midnight Monday. It would

also delay for two months across-the-board cuts to the budgets of the Pentagon and

numerousdomesti cagencies.

Other points include:

•Incometaxrates:Extends decade-old tax cuts on incomes up to $400,000 for individuals, $450,000 for

couples. Earnings abovethose amounts would be taxed at a

rate of 39.6 percent, up from the current 35 percent.

• Estate tax:The biggest estates would be taxed at a top rate of 40 percent, up from 35

percent.

• Alternative minimum tax: Permanentlyaddresses the alternative minimum tax and indexes it for inflation to prevent

nearly 30 million middle- and upper-middle incometaxpayers

from being hit with higher tax bills averaging almost $3,000.

The tax wasoriginally designed to ensure that the wealthy did

not avoid owing taxes byusing loopholes.

• Other tax changes:Extends

for five years Obama-sought expansions of the child tax credit, the earned income tax credit, and an up-to-$2,500 tax credit for college tuition.

• Unemploymentbenefits: Extends jobless benefits for

the long-term unemployed for one year.

• Social Security payroll tax cut:Allows a 2-percentagepoint cut in the payroll tax

first enacted two years ago to lapse, which restores the payroll tax to 6.2 percent.

• Across-the-board cuts: Delays for two months $109 billion worth of across-the-

year, according to th e T ax Policy Center, a nonpartisan

research group in Washington. The increases will apply almost exclusively to households making at least half a million dollars, the center estimated in an analysis published Tuesday.

But lawmakers' decision not to reverse a scheduled increase in the payroll tax that finances Social Security, while widely expected, still means that about 77 percent of households will pay a larger share of income to the federal government this year,according to the center's analysis.

The tax this year will increase by t w o p e r centage points, to 6.2 percent from 4.2 percent,on all earned income up to $113,700.

On the left, complaints that Obamaagain gave awaytoo much

By Peter Baker New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — For President Barack Obama, the fiscal deal passed by Congress on Tuesday finally ends four years of debate with R epublicans about raising tax rates on the wealthy. But it seemed to reopen a debate within his party about the nature of his leadership and his skills as a negotiator.

While Obama got most of what he sought in the agreement, he found himself under withering criticism from some in his liberal base who accused him of caving in to Republicans by not taxing therichmore. Justas House Speaker John Boehner has been under pressure from his right, Obama faces a virtual tea party of the left that sees his compromise as capitulation.

The main difference is that in the Obama era, the Democratic establishment has beenlessinfluenced, or intimidated, by the left than the Republican establishment has been by the right.

Liberals have not mounted sustained primary c h allenges to take out wayward incumbents the way conservatives have. All but three D emocrats voting in t h e Senate and 16 in the House supported the compromise on Tuesday, even as most House Republicans balked, giving Obama more room to operate than Boehner.

But the wave of grievance from liberal activists, labor leaders and economists suggested that the uneasy truce between Obama and his base that held through the campaign season had expired now that there was no longer a threat of a Mitt Romney victory. It also offered a harbinger of the president's next four years.

The criticism has irritated the White House, which argued that Obama held true to principle by forcing Republicans to r aise i ncome tax rates on t h e wealthy andextend unemployment benefits and targeted tax credits. Obama also quashed Republican demands to trim the growth of e n titlement b e nefits.

Aides dismissed armchair criticism from those who have never had to negotiate with intractable opposition.

"There's some frustration that over time you would think everybody would have a better understanding of the parameters of this," said Robert Gibbs, a longtime adviser to Obama who once called such critics "the professional left." "But he understands nowprobably better than at any other point in his presidency what it means to be a leader, what it means to have to do things that are good not just for one party but good for the country."

The criticism from the left mirrors past complaints when Obama included tax cuts in his stimulus package, gave up on a government-run option in health care negotiations and temporarily extended Bushera tax cuts for the wealthy two years ago. Liberals said Obama should have capitalized on his re-election victory and the expiration on New Year's Day of all of the Bush tax cuts to force Republicans to accept his terms.

"The president remains cluelessabout how to use leverage in a negotiation," said Adam Green, a co-founder of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, a liberal advocacy "Republicans organization. publicly admitted they lost the tax debate and would be forced to cave, yet the president just kept giving stuff away."

Robert Reich, the former labor secretary, said that Obama "has stiffened his tactical resolve" but that "he's still the same President Obama who wants a deal above all else and seems willing to compromise on even the most basic principle."

Richard Trumka, the president of the AFL-CIO, said in a Twitter message on Monday that the agreement was "not a good fiscal cliff deal if it gives more tax cuts to 2 percent."

Sen. Tom H arkin, D -Iowa, said on the floor on Monday that "this looks like a very bad deal."

TODAY'S READ: POACHING IN AFRICA

By Jeffrey GettlemaneNew Yorlz Times News Service KRUGER NATIONAL PARK, South Africa-

They definitely did not look like ordinary big-game hunters, the stream of slender young Thai women who showed up on the veld wearing tight blue jeans and sneakers.

But the rhinoceros carcasses kept piling up around them, and it was only after dozens of these hulking, relatively rare animals were dead and their precious horns sawed off that an extravagant scheme came to light.

The Thai women, it ends up, were not hunters at all. Many never even squeezed off a shot. Instead, they were prostitutes hired by a criminal syndicatebased 6,000 miles away in Laos to exploit loopholes in big game hunting rules and get its hands on as many rhino horns as possible — horns that are now literally worth more than gold.

"These girls had no i dea what they were doing," said Paul O'Sullivan, a private investigator i n J o h annesburg who helped crack the case.

"They thought they were go-

Driven by a common belief in Asia that ground-up rhino horns can cure cancer and other ills, the trade has also been embraced by criminal syndicates that normally traffic in drugs and guns. They have branched into the underground animal parts business because it is seen as "low risk, high profit," U.S. officials say.

than crack cocaine, and conservationists worry that this "ridiculous price," as one wildlife manager put it, could drive rhinos into extinction.

Here in South Africa, home to the majority of the world's last surviving 28,000 or so rhinos, the government is throwing in just about everything it has to stop the slaughterthousands of rangers, the national army, a new spy plane, even drones — but it is losing.

Some contend that the only way to reduce rhino poaching, which has become a worldwide criminal enterprise, is by allowing the horns, which can regenerate, to be removed and sold legally. than raise it."

Kruger National Park, an enormous wildlife refuge in South Africa's northeast, is where many rhinos are being poached. The park lies on the border of M ozambique, a much poorer country still scarred from years of c ivil war. Park rangers say Mozambican gunmen are pouring through Kruger's chain link fences, downing rhinos left and right.

Some sophisticated poaching rings use helicopters to spot the a nimals and v eterinarians to dart them with t ranquilizers. O t h er s d o n women's shoes, to leave misleading tracks.

BRIEFING

Few Dijll arrests in Central Oregon Oregon State Police troopers in Central

Oregon arrested three people on suspicion of driving under the influ-

ence of intoxicants over the last two days, according to a police news release. Meanwhile, the

Bend Police Department arrested two people on suspicion of DUII on New Year's Eve. State troopers made 39 DUII arrests across

the state from Monday through 6 a.m.Tuesday, according to police. A majority of the arrests — 26 — occurred between midnightand 6

Morecol will elightwintersportslovers Bulletin staff report Cold and more cold is the order of the day — in fact, of the coming week, according to the National Weather Service.

But that can mean an absolute boom in Bend, where people love cold-weather sports.

Just ask Valerie Collins, retail salesassociate atThe Powder House, a ski and snow sports store on Century Drive.

"It's been so busy the past week, we ran out of crosscountry (skis) and snowshoes, oh, yeah," she said Tuesday.

"Once the snow starts really flying and sticking in town, and (it starts) getting super cold, people really freak out and they really love it."

A full moon on the weekend before New Year's Day brought snowshoers and cross-countryskiers out for nighttime excursions, despite the chill, she said.

Cold, clear and dry conditions should prevail through the weekend, with temperatures slightly below normal, said weather service meteorologist Robert Cramp, of Pendleton. Snow on the

ground and a low-hanging sun arepartly responsible for the chilly temperatures.

"Clear skies at night, particularly with snow on the ground, doesn't allow it to get real warm," he said. "We're essentially looking at a dry fore-

cast down there for several days — no warm south winds to mix things up, nothing to give us an air mass change.

"The air gets cold and stays cold for a while," he said.

A high-pressure system is

keeping skies clear, Cramp said. No strong system appears lined up behind it, he said. The only change might be low clouds making their way over Bend from the Columbia River valley. Expect "some low clouds and fog," he said.

"We could be talking into the first part of next week," Cramp said Tuesday. "We're not seeing any substantial system until early next week."

Sgt. Dan Ritchie of the Bend Police Depart-

publicity around increased police patrols aimed at deterring

people from driving under the influence during the holidays.

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

It was shortly after 9 a.m. on New Year's Day at Hoodoo Ski Area, and the temperature was around 20 degrees, under a cloudless sky.

Stephen Shunk came to a stop on his cross-countryskis and the two people with him, C hristine Elder and Jake Schas, also stopped and grew silent.

Shunk whistled low and short, the call of a Northern pygmy owl, in an attempt to attract other birds. The owls eat different species of birds, Shunk said, so the sound of an owl often attracts flocks of small birds that will harass the owl in an attempt to force it to leave.

"If we don't hear anything, sometimes

we whistle (like a) pygmy owl," Shunk sa>d.

Shunk repeated the callfor a few minutes, and the group scanned the landscape, hoping to see birds or hear a response. Nothing. The only sounds were the wind and the faraway whine of snowmobiles.

Undeterred, the b i r ders continued along the Hoodoo trails, stopping several more times to make the owl call. The group did not spot any birds along this particular trail, although they did find a gray jay in the parking lot. However, by the end of the day, multiple groups of birders had identified 29 species in the Santiam Pass area and a total of approximately 200 birds, Shunk wrote in an email.

Shunk, Elder and Schas are members of the East Cascades Audubon Society, and the Santiam Pass bird count was the last local event in the National Audubon Society's Christmas Bird Count.

Events in other areas of Oregon continue through Saturday.

Several species that the group spotted or heard on Tuesday had only been identified during a few previous counts in the area. These included the Northern pygmy owl, the Williamson's sapsucker, the red-breasted sapsucker, the downy woodpecker and the American robin.

The National Audubon Society organized the first Christmas Bird Count in 1900, in response to hunting competitions that were, at that time, a Christmas tradition. Scientists and other observers were worried about declining bird populations, according to the Audubon Society website.

Bend High School ski team captain Mitchell Cutter, seen here Monday after practice, has earned a 4.3 GPA and is a national merit semifinalist.

He begins his ski racing season Saturday in the giant slalom.

Mitchell Cutter believes you don't have to be smart to get a 4.3 GPA, do well in a rigorous academic program or be a national merit semifinalist.

No, all you need to be a good student, the Bend High School senior said, are some decent balancing abilities and, above all, a good attitude.

"If you're going to do

something, do it," said Mitchell, 17. "Don't just slog through it and do it halfway. Get everything you can out of it. That's a good motto my dad's always saying to me."

Over the past four years, Mitchell has gotten a lot of chances to test his

philosophy. He plays football, lacrosse, and serves as captain of Bend High's alpine skiing team while maintaining his GPA in

the school's International Baccalaureate program.

Alpine skiing is one of Mitchell's biggest

passions.

H e's been captain of the varsity ski team since his sophomore year. Despite never having won a race, Mitchell continues to work hard to win one. This winterbreak, he's spent most of his vacation training at Mt. Bachelor.

These groups met later in the day at The Lodge at Suttle Lake to share their data. This was the 17th annual count at Santiam Pass, Shunk said.

Elder said sound plays an important role in identifying birds. "The main way they identify them is by song," she sard.

Birders also use color, size, shape and behavior to identify species. In order to minimize the chance that birds are counted more than once, participants note the direction in which a rare bird or a large flock is flying, in case another group spots the same birds, Elder said.

Crash survivors prepare to go home

By Jonathan J. Cooper The Associated Press

PENDLETON — Some of the survivors of a fatal bus crash on a rural Oregon highway retrieved their passports and other belongings Tuesday so they can finish their journey to Canada.

At least 14 survivors remained hospitalized in three states after t h e w e e kend crash that killed nine people and injured 38. State police escorted other survivors one by one to collect their property, which was strewn across a hillside as the tour bus careened 200feetfrom a partly icy roadway Sunday.

The bus was returning to Vancouver, British Columbia, on the final leg of a nine-day tour of the Western United States. The trip w a s o rganized by a British Columbia travel agency to carry tourists traveling in small groups.

Most of the passengers were Korean.

The Red Cross said some of the survivors were too terrified to get on another bus, so a nearby Ford dealer offered to drive them in smaller passenger vehicles. Some were expected to begin the trip on today.

State police and National Transportation Safety Board investigators were expected to finish an inspection of the

Workmen move the bus Monday that plummeted 200 feet down an embankment in rural Eastern Oregon on Sunday, killing nine people and sending others to hospitals. On Tuesday, survivors were preparing to continue their journey to Canada today. bus Tuesday.

Oregon State Police identified one of the nine victims as a 57-year-old Washington man. Authorities said Dale William Osborn, o f S p anaway, was killed in the Sunday crash and his wife, Sue Osborn, remained hospitalized in Pendleton.

H is dau g hter , Jen n i fer Sherman, o f C o l orado Springs, said she was told her father was hit in the head by a rock, while her mother was thrown into a riverbed. She last spoke to her father two

weeks ago.

"He was very happy," Sherman said. "He's a very good man."

Authorities have not yet releasedthe names of the other eight people who died, but police said the four men and four women were of A sian descent and one female victim may be a juvenile.

Two families are expected to arrive from South Korea l ater this w eek, said V i ce Consul Chul Ho Choi, who came to Pendleton from Seattle to help authorities translate, identify victims and notify relatives. Relatives of all

victims have now been notified, he said.

Chris Huxoll, sales mana ger at Legacy Ford in L a Grande, said the dealership will probably use new sportu tility v e hicles w it h f o u r wheel drive to be sure survivors cansafely make the 420mile trip to Vancouver.

"We are extremely sensitive to the fact that these kids and adults don't want to get on a bus," said Casey WhiteZollman, a volunteer spokeswoman for the Red Cross.

Police said Monday they still weren't sure how fast the bus was travelling before the crash.

It could take a month or more to determine whether the driver, a 54-year-old man from Vancouver, was at fault and whetherhe'llface charges, Oregon State Police Lt. Gregg Hastings said.

The bus was traveling west in the left lane of Interstate 84 when it hit a concrete barrier, veered across both westbound lanes an d p l u nged t hrough the g uardrail a n d 200 feet down the embankm ent, Hastings s aid. T h e NTSB said the bus rolled at least once.

matilla County officials fear the governor's propos-

~55IVS

als to save money on prisons could cost counties more for probation and related services.

It's a concern legislators need to consider as they study the proposals resulting from Gov. John Kitzhaber's Commission on Public Safety. If reforms send more work to the counties, additional funds for counties must be provided.

Kitzhaber's budget does include increases in funding for community corrections, according to The Associated Press, and his public safety commission has proposed grant programs that would funnel more funds to counties. But Umatilla is concerned it won't be enough, especially for rural counties.

Oregon's prison population has been forecast to grow by 2,300 beds in 10 years, at an additional cost of $600 million. But the governor asked an expanded safety commission to recommend ways to stem the cost, and the 20D Legislature is expected to consider a variety of proposals. The goal is to save money on prisons while investing more in programs that prevent crime and reform criminals.

Not all members of the commission agreed with its proposalssome of which would require voter approval — so they were reported to the governor without a recommendation that they be enacted.

They include:

• Giving judges discretion in some cases that now have mandatory sentences under Measure ll and Measure 57.

• Relaxing requirements related to marijuana and driving with a suspended license.

• Letting prisoners' and probationers' behavior cut their sentences and supervision time.

• Cutting the cost per inmate by reducing costs of running the prisons.

• Sending additional funds to counties that send fewer convicts to prison.

Many of the proposals are sensible, not just to save money, but also to improve public safety, but they are also controversial. Clackamas County District Attorney John Foote, for example, believes the focus should be primarily on the costs of prison administration and labor,not on the number of prisoners.

Umatilla's question is narrower, however, and could easily get lost in the heated debate sure to take place in the Legislature. As they consider proposed changes, legislators need to be sure there's no shift in costs to counties without funds to cover them.

Disclose who isspending the moneyon campaigns embers of Congress are not puppets controlled by their campaign donors.

But decisions can be colored by the knowledge that an organization with a multimillion dollar war chest is poised to launch anonymous attack ads if a senator or representative votes the "wrong" way.

U.S. Sens. Ron Wyden, D-Ore., and Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, are crafting legislation that they hope will, at least, make it clearer who is spending money. They w rote about it recently in T he Washington Post.

Federal law requires only quarterly finance reports. So, it can be months after an election before the public learns who dumped millions into television ads before the election.

The senators' proposal is to require that credit and debit card donations be reported within 48 hours of receipt. Donations by check would be reported before the check is deposited, in no case later than 10 days after receipt.

The proposal doesn't stop there.

It increases the triggering level for disclosurefrom a $200 contribution to a $500 contribution. That's to focus attention on more significant expenditures.

T he proposal also aims t o

M

capture the financial activity for corporations and other business entities, labor unions, 501(c) taxexempt entities and unincorporated associations. If they spend in excess of $500 on "election-related activity," they must report it.

Republicans in the Senate filibustered a similar bill in 2012, the DISCLOSE Act. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., gave aseriesofspeeches defending political giving as free speech. He said groups such as the NAACP, Sierra Club and the Chamber of Commerce wouldbe forced to subject their members to public intimidation and harassment because of the reporting requirements of the DISCLOSE Act. Wyden and Murkowski proposed some protection in their new concept. Members of organizations that are supported by dues would be able to dedicate up to $500 per member to election activity without a requirement to disclose the identity of the individual members.

The idea of increasing transparency in campaign contributions in this proposal helps.

It's not going to stop all the sleaze and shenanigans. But people may know better where it's coming from.

Rep. Dennis Richardson, R-Central Point, that we should arm schoolteachers or someone in schools is appalling. There is a place for people who want to shoot automatic weapons, and it is in the military or the police, not in our schools.

We are not at the apocalypse, but the pro-gun lobby would like to get us there. I pray that reason and respect for human decency will prevail.

To be effective, added mental health resourcesshould be devoted primarily to crisis and suicide intervention.

The hope is that early intervention will assist the potential shooter in finding another way of resolving his emotional issues.

Then there is the matter of lethality. If you are trying to help a family, for example, with a seriously suicidal family member, you insist that they make the likely means of committing suicide unavailable to the troubled person. Remove guns and knives and potent drugs from easy access.

Make sure trips in the family car are accompanied by other adults. You get the idea. Inflicting pain on self or others with a baseball bat may cause

In monitoring access to lethal means, individual privacy, of course, should be honored, but the person's daily moods and actions should also be observed.

Psychologists will readily admit that identifying a specific individual as a potential mass shooter — picking him out among all the troubled people in our nation — is nearly impossible. Instead, here is what we, as a nation, can do:

1. Limit access to weapons whose only function is to fire deadly ammunition in rapid fire bursts in limited time (so-called "assault weapons") — this reduces lethality.

2. Increase the likelihood that potentially suicidal mass killers will have the opportunity to come in contact with an experienced helper who can help them solve their problems beforethey create a tragedy.

California scientists, grappling with an explosion of marijuana growing on the North Coast, recently studied aerial imagery of a small tributary of the Eel River, spawning grounds for endangered coho salmon and other threatened fish.

In theremote, 37-squaremile patch of forest, they counted 281 outdoor pot farms and 286 greenhouses, containing an estimated 20,000 plants - mostly fed by water diverted from creeks or a fork of the Eel. The scientists determined the farms were siphoning roughly 18 million gallons from the watershed every y ear, largely at th e t i me when the salmon most need it.

"That is just one small w atershed," s a i d Sc o t t Bauer, the state scientist in 8k charge of the coho recovery on the North Coast for the Department of Fish and Game.

OREGON CITIES

The Associated Press

SEATTLE — The number of illegal immigrants in the Pacific Northwest removed from the country has fallen dramatically over the past couple of years, according to new numbers from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

They show that 6,733 immigrants were removed in fiscal year 2012 from Washington, Oregon and Alaska, compared with a recent high of more than 10,800 immigrants expelled in 2010.

The 2012 numbers also show that for the first time in five years, the number of illegal immigrants with criminal records declined. The data show that 4,557 ofsuch immigrants were removed in 2012, compared with 5,272 the previous year.

A fiscal year runs from September to October. These removals also include voluntary departures, which is when an illegal immigrant chooses to leave the country on his own.

In recent years, ICE has made removing illegal immigrants with criminal records one of its top priorities. Nationally, the total number of removals stood at nearly 410,000, with nearly 70 percent of those with criminal records.

The decline of removals from the Pacific Northwest can be attributed to fewer people being transferredfrom out of state to the Tacoma Detention Center, where some i m migrants are processed and held

"I don't view this as a big victory in the total scheme of things; those numbers appear to havejust been moved to otherjurisdictions."

Meanwhile, on the day removal numberswere released, ICE director John Morton announced a new policy on when agents should hold in custody immigrants suspected of being in the country illegally. The policy reinforces ICE's priority of going after people with criminal records and brings its detainment policy in line with prosecutorial guidelines released in 2010.

"The new detainer policy further illustrates the Obama administration's refusal to enforce immigration law as written by Congress, opting only to enforce the law against aliens deemed a 'priority,'" argued the Federal for Immigration Reform, a group that pushes for stricter immigration rules.

Stolz said the new detainment policy is positive step.

"Hopefully, it'll have an impact on the overall numbers of deportations in the future, such as folks pulled over for a broken taillight," he said. "However, the change does not address the f u ndamental p r oblems created by enlisting local law enforcement in federal immigration enforcement activities, including concerns over racial profiling, undermining trust in law enforcement."

— Rich Stolz, Seattle-based immigrant advocate before removal, the agency said in a statement.

The agency also said another factor contributing to the drop innumbers isthe increase in immigration cases of people who are not detained at Tacoma. Ingeneral,those cases tend to take longer, even years, to work through the immigration court system.

For Rich Stolz, executive directorof OneAmerica, a Seattle-based immigrant advocacy group, the drop in local numbers is nothing to cheer about.

"I don't view this as a big victory in the total scheme of things; those numbers appear to have just been moved to 0ther jurisdictions," he said, adding that the more than 225,000 immigrants removed without a criminal record nationally nreflects hundreds of thousands of families being torn apart."

Stolz said immigrant advocates continue to be troubled

by ICE's definition of crimes counted toward its tally of illegal immigrants with criminal records removed. He said people who c ommit t r affic violations can be caught in the dragnet of programs ICE employs with local jurisdictions, such as one c alled Secure Communities.

KAPALUA, Hawaii — Even without the top four players in the world around to kick off the season, every new year in golf is shrouded in mystery like clouds over Molokai across the channel from Kapalua.

Among the m ost p ressing questions: What will Bubba Watson serve for dinner at the Masters'?

"When you show up for dinner on Tuesday night, that's when you'll find out," Watson said.

One problem. The press is not invited.

"That's what I mean," Watson said.

With a wink and a smile, he walked over to the first tee and smashed the first of what figures to be several400-yard tee shots.

There were 67 tee shots that went at least 400 yardslastyear on the PGA Tour, and 41 of them were on the Plantation Course at Kapalua.

The biggest news in Abu D habi later this month will not necessarily be the first showdown between Rory McIlroy and Tiger Woods.

Kelly has been a n i n t r iguing candidate for NFL teams for a few years.

The 49-year-old coach is known as an offensive innovator and his fast-paced, high-scoring offense has led to the most successful stretch in

Oregon's history.

The fourth-ranked Ducks have gone to four straight BCS bowl games, a run that includes a trip to the 2011 national championship game, Oregon's first Rose Bowl win in 95 years last season, and Thursday night's Fiesta Bowl against No. 5 Kansas State at University of Phoenix Stadium.

The speculation over the past few years has been that Kelly has his eye on an NFL job and he even talked to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers last year before saying he had unfinished business in Eugene.

The Atlanta Falcons and the Denver Broncos, led by quarterback Peyton Manning, left, finished the regular season with the NFL's best records at 13-3.

Super Bowl titles usually owned by the underdogs

By Arnie Stapleton The Associated Press

DENVER — The Denver Broncos and Atlanta Falcons, who tied for the league's best record at 13-3, are well aware of one of the NFL's biggest truisms: More often than not, the regular season is for suckers.

Over the past decade, just two of the 13 teams that had the best regular-season record — or tied for the best mark — went on to win the Super Bowl: the 2002 Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the 2003 New England Patriots.

The last eight teams to enter the playoffs with the best record bowed out before they could put their fingerprints on the Lombardi Trophy and revel in a rain of confetti.

Both theBroncos and Falcons are promising to practice like champions this week and not allow rest and relaxation to turn into rust and ruin.

NHL makescounteroffer to players' union at short meeting

By Ira Podell The Associated Press

NEW YORK — The proposals are flying back and forth between the NHL and the players' association.

Whether significant progress is being made in the process still isn't all that clear.

The league made a counteroffer on Tuesday night in response to one it received from the players on Monday and now the NHL is waiting for another answer.

A full day of smaller group meet-

ings wrapped up with a full bargaining session that lasted about 30 minutes Tuesday night. The union took the league's latest offer back to its headquarters to begin reviewing it.

"They didmake a comprehensive response to what we gave them yesterday," executive director Donald Fehr said. "We asked a couple of questions, and now what we have to do is go through the document, try to make some sense out of it, compare it and see what the appropriate thing is to do next."

Fehr said he will get back in touch with the NHL early today, and add-

ed he anticipates the sides will get back together during the day.

"I am reasonably certain of it," Fehr said.

NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman declined to provide details of the league's latest offer, but said it addressed specificareas the union requested.

"There were certain things that the players' association asked for that we agreedto,there were some things that we moved in their direction, and there were other things that we said no," he said. "That's part of the process."

But it's a process that has limited time to be completed. Bettman said Monday the NHL has told the union a deal needs to be in place by Jan.

11 so a 48-game season can begin eight days later.

It is unclear how many issues still need to be resolved and how far apartthe sides are in key areas.

"Nobody is counting," Bettman said. "We're not trying to keep score, we're trying to get an agreement."

B oth sides agreed that i t i s a positive sign they are getting into

for informational purposes.

"Those were more technical," Bettman said. "There were a variety a rhythm of talking and meeting of issueswhere there weren't what and exchanging ideas on a regular I would call negotiations.

When the s ides met M o nday, for the first time since Dec. 13, the union brought a condensed counterproposal in response to the NHL's 288-page contractoffer.There were some discussionsbetween the negotiators and some time spent apart in internal meetings.

It is still p ossible this dispute eventually could be settled in the courts if the sides can't reach a deal on their own.

The NHL filed a class-action suit this month in U.S. District Court in New York in an effort to show its lockout is legal. In a separate move, the league filed an unfair labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board, contending badfaith bargaining by the union.

Those moves were made because the players' association took steps toward potentially declaring a "disclaimer of interest," which would dissolve the union and make it a trade association. That would allow players to file antitrust lawsuits against the NHL.

The Associated Press NEW YORK — A m are Stoudemire stood up from the bench and the fans rose with him, a booming ovation filling Madison Square Garden as Stoudemire walked to the scorer's table to enter a game for the first time this season.

The cheers turned to boos just a few minutes later when the Knicks couldn't stop the Portland Trail Blazers.

The Trail Blazers overcame Carmelo Anthony's season high-tying 45 points and spoiled Stoudemire's season debut, beating New York 105-100 on Tuesday

night.

Stoudemire finished with six points on three-of-eight shooting and one rebound in 17 minutes off the bench in his return from knee surgery. He said he nearly shed a tear with the loud appreciation the fans showed him when he checkedin,but he couldn't give them anything to keep the cheers going in the first half.

"I felt good," Stoudemire said. "The game felt like it was going 100 mph that

first half. Had a couple of easy-looking shots, open shots, just a little bit rusty, wasn't able to knock those down. But the second half was better than my first half.

Hopefully my second game will be better than my first game."

Nicolas Batum scored 26 points, rookie Damian Lillard had 21 points, six assists and five rebounds, and LaMarcus Aldridge had 19 points and 14 rebounds for Portland, which avenged a 121-79 loss here last March 14.

"When we came last year, that was the biggest loss of my career. Down 42, that was real embarrassing," Batum said.

"The only thing on my mind when I came in was just put (down) the stat sheet from last year. That was my motivation for tonight."

Anthony shot 14 of 24 and nearly led the Knicks back from 19 points down after missing two games with a knee injury, but the Trail Blazers had too many options.

J.J. Hickson scored all of his 18 points in the first half as Portland won for the third time in four games.

"This was big time for us. I think we're gaining confidence every day," Lillard said. "Every day that we see ourselves on film, we see the improvements that we've been making and we're getting better.

We're starting to trust each other more and we're jelling a lot better than we were

NBA ROUNDUP and it's showing."

Anthony had missed the previous two games with a hyperextended leftknee.

The Knicks are still without point guard Raymond Felton because of a broken pinky finger and struggled to get their offense going until too late, losing for the third time in four games.

J.R. Smith had 28 points and 11 rebounds for the Knicks, but Jason Kidd was scoreless and missed all five shots in 33 minutes.

Stoudemire had surgery on Oct. 31 to clean up tissue in his left knee and de-

cided to play after going through a couple of practices this week, though adding he wasn't yet 100 percent. The former All-Star who has battled injuries in recent yearswas clearly rusty but showed he can still finish at the rim when set up

properly.

Coach Mike Woodson wouldn't say how long Stoudemire would remain a reserve.Stoudemire and Anthony have struggled to play together and the Knicks have a losing record when both play, but Woodson has said the Knicks need both of them on the floor to have a shot at a

championship.

"We got him some easy shots tonight. A little rusty but that was expected, he expected that tonight," Anthony said. "Then once he settled down, we got him in the right situations, got him in the right positions, he made some shots. That's going to take some time for him just rebuilding that confidence being back out there on the basketball court, but for the most part the ball's going to find him."

Stoudemire was already done for the night when the Knicks made a late run, cutting an 11-point deficit with 3:16 remaining to 100-97 on Anthony's 3-pointer with 57 seconds left. Lillard answered with a 3-pointer, but the Knicks got it right back down tothree again when Anthony converted a three-point play with 29 seconds to go.

The Knicks forced a jump ball and Smith won it, but Anthony missed a 3pointer. Wesley Matthews, back after missing four straight games with an injured left hip, made two free throws with 13 seconds left to close the scoring.

Stoudemire checked in with 3:31 remaining in the first quarter to the ovation

he saidwas unlike he'd ever experienced in his career. The Knicks went right to him in the post, but he stepped on the baseline while making his move.

The cheers turned to boos, not heard often this season during the Knicks' 12-2 start at home, just a few minutes later.

Kelly

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Continued from C1 The rumors began to pick up this season and followed him to the desert, where he has been asked about the NFL every day he has been here and has given a different version of the same answer every time.

"My heart is to win today and that's it," Kelly said. "I know everybody wants to hear a di fferent answer.

And I know that at times when I don't give you guys the answer that you guys want, then I'm being evasive. I'm not being evasive."

One reason that Kelly's stock is so h igh i s t h at NFL teams are starting to embrace the hurry-all-thetime offense he has nearly perfected in Eugene.

No. 13 FloridaStategets Orange Bowl victory over No. 16 Northern Illinois The Associated Press MIAMI — Anxious to avoid an Orange Bowl shocker, the Florida State Seminoles kept getting tricked.

An onside kick fooled them, as did afake punt, and a pooch punt by Northern Illinois' star quarterback.

But the final score was no surprise.

Florida State had too much speed and depth for the Huskies andpulled away for a 31-10 victory Tuesday night.

Senior fullback Lonnie Pryor, voted the game's outstanding player, ran for a career-high 134 yards and two scores in only five carries. Senior E.J. Manuel threw for 291 yards, while the Seminoles stuffed Huskies' QB and all-purpose threat Jordan Lynch for most of the night.

"We came out hereand did what we had to do," Pryor said.

The victory wa s a c o nsolation prize for the No. 13 Seminoles (12-2), who began the season with national championship hopes. They've won five consecutive bowl games, but the victory was their first in a BCS bowl since 2000, when they beat Virginia Tech for the national championship.

the country employing a version of it.

NFL teams have always seemed to be reluctant to borrow from th e college ranks, sticking to smashmouth football for y ears even while college offenses had unprecedented success with the spread.

The mi n d se t has changed, at l east some, over the past few years as teams have looked for ways to get ahead of the defenses. Several NFL teams have gone the high-octane route on offense, including New England, Seattle, Washington an d G r e en Bay, to a certain extent.

Kelly has been the standard-bearer for the redline approach in college. His Ducks have ranked no lower than sixth in the country in rushing yards since he became offensive coordinator in 2007 and have been in the top 10 in scoring and total offense every year but one.

With success like that, it is no wonder he has become a popular target for NFL teams.

can every single day," Kelly said. "If that's good enough that other people look at me sometimes, I don't really care about that. I think too many people live in the future. We live in the moment."

The key this week will be keeping the Ducks in the moment as the rumors swirl.

Kelly is reported to be the top candidate to replace Pat Shurmur with the Cleveland Browns and w ould be a popular choice for the Philadelphia Eagles now that Andy Reid is gone.

Arizona, Buffalo, Chicago, San Diego and Kansas City also are without coaches and could come calling on Kelly as well.

W hatever K ell y d o e s behind the scenes, he has tried to make sure it does not become a distraction for his team as it prepares to play another team that had n a t i onal-championship hopes that lasted deep into the season.

"I never said a word to our guys about it," Kelly said. "They u n derstand what the task is at hand. I don't think about it. They don't think about it, so ... " So far, it seems to be working.

ROSE BOWL

The Associated Press

PASADENA, Calif. — Although Stanford didn't score many style points in the 99th Rose Bowl, the Cardinal could celebrate because they didn't let Wisconsin score any points at all after halftime.

Stepfan Taylor rushed for 89 yards and an early touchdown, Kevin Hogan passed for 123 yards, and No. 8 Stanford won its first Rose Bowl since 1972, beating the Badgers 20-14 on Tuesday night.

Usua Amanam made the decisive interception near midfield with 2:30 to play as the Pac-12 champion Cardinal (12-2) ended their four-decade drought in the Granddaddy of Them All with arguably the biggest bowl win yet dur-

ing the long-struggling program's recent renaissance.

"We knew this was going to be a battle, and we wouldn't expect it any other way," Stanford coach David Shaw said.

"We know it's going to be tight, it's going to be close, and we're going to find a way to win. That's the way it's been all year."

Stanford clamped down on the Big

Ten champion Badgers (8-6), who lost the Rose Bowl in heartbreaking fashion for the third consecutive season.

Montee Ball rushed for 100 yards and his FBS-record 83rd touchdown, but Wisconsin managed only 82 yards in that scoreless second half.

With impressive defense of its own, Wisconsin still stayed in position for an upset in the one-game return of Hall of Fame coach Barry Alvarez, who was back on the Badgers' sideline in his red sweater-vestseven years afterhanging up his whistle.

"This group of kids has been through a lot, and they competed extremely hard against a very high-quality team," Alvarezsaid."We've played three very

good football games (at the Rose Bowl).

These guys played hard. In fact, most people would like to get here once. But we just didn't get it done."

Kelsey Young rushed for a score on

Klein Continued from C1 When Klein came to Kansas State, he had the size, toughness and leadership skills necessary to guide the Wildcats to big wins. But he was hardly a finished product.

His throwing motion needed work, he had to learn how to read college defenses, and he had to figure out when to take chances downfield and when to tuck the ball and fight for yards on the ground.

Still, Miller saw a future star.

"When I first started with Collin I told him, 'Collin, you have the ability

Stanford's opening possession, and Taylor scored on the second. Wisconsin kept the Cardinal out of the end zone for the final 51 minutes, holding them to three points in the second half, but Stanford's defense didn't need any more help in the Cardinal's eighth straight victory.

"We knew coming in, it was going to

be a physical game," Taylor said. "We knew they know how to play against power as well as us. They did a great job. It was our defense keeping us in the game that enabled us to get this win."

After winning the Orange Bowl two years ago and losing the Fiesta Bowl last season, Stanford earned its first conference title and its first Rose Bowl berth in 13 years. The Cardinal finished with 12 victories for just the second time in school history — and the second time in the past three years.

The Cardinal ousted top-ranked Oregon on the way to the biggest season yet in the improbable surge of success started by Jim Harbaugh and Andrew Luck. Many Pac-12 observers expected a sharp decline at Stanford this season — but Shaw and Hogan, who took over as the starting quarterback in November, have accomplished something even Harbaugh and L uck c ouldn't manage.

"I think it served as some motivation for us throughout the year," Amanam said. "I think it's just a testament to our program and how we train and prepare every season."

When Bret Bielema abruptly left Wisconsin for Arkansas after winning the Big Ten title game, Alvarez agreed to coach his fourth Rose Bowl before handing off his program to new coach Gary Andersen, who met with Alvarez on the field before the game.

But the Badgers' third straight Rose Bowl appearance ended in much the same way as the past two: With the offense failing to get the late score the Badgers desperately needed.

to be every bit as good as Tim Tebow.

You maybe don't know that right now, but you can be,' " Miller said. "I believe that he has done that."

What did he need to reach such a high level?

Three things: a tweak to the angle of his release, which added velocity to his throws, encouragement and time.

"There were a few mechanics we had to work on," Miller said. "But the great thing with Collin is he is almost the perfect player to work with. When you give him something to work on, he will work on it and then some. At that time he was doing some mirror throws to change his throwing mo-

tion a little bit. He did that every day on a regular basis."

Miller watched, offering advice when he could and repeating his favorite phrase: "Play fast, play with confidence."

Klein always listened.

"Coach Miller cares so much," Klein said. "He really does have a heart for each one of his players and

is very demanding like Coach (Bill) Snyder. He has helped me so much in my knowledge of the game of football, top to bottom."

C o-offensive coordinator D a n a Dimel has watched Klein and Miller build a relationship during their time

first time, the defeat snapped a 12game winning streak. The Huskies came in as two-touchdown underdogs and fell to 5-28 against top 25 teams.

"We knew that they was going to play us tough," Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher said. "But our kids, it's another step in which we handled the big platform, and I'm very proud of them."

Pryor scored the first touchdown on a career-long 60-yard run, then ran 37 yards for a clinching touchdown with 10 minutes left. They were the two longest rushes allowed by Northern Illinois all season.

"I'm glad I'm a 'Nole, and I'm glad the seniors went out with a bang," Pryor said. "I always wanted to be MVP of a bowl, and I told myself that every time I get the ball, to try to

make a big play."

Manuel went 26 for 38, threw for one score and ran for another.

"We just kept playing," he said.

"Now we're going to enjoy ourselves."

"He is very professional with his players and he is very detailed with them," Dimel said of Miller. "He has

been around so many programs and experienced success. He has brought that with him here. He is very detailed, has great understanding for what the quarterback needs to know in the run game and the pass game. ... He and Collin have a really personable relationship. They respect each other a lot and work well together."

Miller is ready. Helping quarterbacks like Klein reach his full potential is not only his job, it is his passion.

"That's what has kept me in coaching all these years," Miller said. "I enjoy watching young men develop, not just from a quarterback standpoint but also as young men. That is very

Players changing equipment companies is nothing new. It is different when that player is No. I in the world. Nike is not likely to announce its deal with McIlroy until he starts his season in Abu Dhabi, and that is when the scrutiny begins.

Mcllroy gives Nike another world-class athlete in its stable. But whatever recognition his clubs receive might be akin to an offensive lineman who gets his name called only when he has been flagged for a penalty. Remember, McIlroy is known to have a bad patch or two. Even last year, when he won five times and swept all the major awards, he missed four cuts in five starts in the summer.

The PGA Tour season might feel more like a sprint than a marathon this year. The season, in effect, ends with the Wyndham Championship on Aug. 18, the cutoff for qualifying for the FedEx Cup playoffs. And once the playoffs end at the Tour Championship, the 2013-14 season starts in October.

That might mean more players competing more often, which could put the squeeze on Q-school and Web.com Tour graduates by limiting the number of tournaments they can play to try to qualify for the playoffs. The motto always has been, "Play better." A tweak might be in order this year. "Play better, now."

4. Anchors away

By Tim Booth

The Associated Press

RENTON, Wash. — Pete Carroll w as thrilled to be in the postseason but knew it was a mirage.

Two seasons ago, in his first venture back in the NFL from the college game, Carroll guided the Seattle Seahawks into the postseason with the dubious distinction of being the only team in NFL history to win a division title with a losing record. Seattle at least showed itself worthy of the playoffs by upsetting New Orleans but was quickly dispatched at Chicago in the second round.

He knew the Seahawks needed to be younger, faster, more athletic and deeper. A makeover was needed.

"We'rejustso much deeper now and we've raised these guys in the program and I just think there's a common feel that we're on the same page," Carroll said this week.

When the Seahawks (11-5) face Washington on Sunday in their playoff opener, they will do so with 33 new faces on the 53-man roster from just two seasons ago. The moves were drastic in some areas and subtle in others.

No matter what the changes were, they have made Seattle a far better and more deserving team for this postseason trip. Carroll said he believes the type of success the Seahawks found in reaching at least 11 wins for just the third time in franchise history should have come sooner.

Ultimately, it was the decision to draft quarterback Russell Wilson from Wisconsin in the third round of the 2012 draft that final-

Underdogs Continued from C1 In the past seven seasons, three No. 6 seeds and a No. 4 seed ended up winning it all, giving hope to the likes of the Ravens, Redskins, Bengals and Vikings in this year's playoff pool.

A year ago, the Green Bay Packers rested their regulars in the season finale and lost their edge, becoming the f irst 15-1 team to lose its first playoff game — to a New York Giants team that was 7-7 in mid-December and went on to win it all.

"That's kind of what it was for us when I was in Indy," Broncos wide receiver Brandon Stokley said of the 2005 Colts, who went 14-2 but lost to Pittsburgh in the divisional round. "We kind of rested the last week, then we had a bye. It's too much. So, I like just grinding every week, just playing football."

That is exactly what Peyton Manning's new team did, securing the AFC's top seed Sunday with its 11th straight win.

Along with the Falcons, Patriots and 49ers,the Broncos get a break this week, one that can prove a pitfall as much as a profit.

"We've just got to practice like we'replaying thisweek," Denver receiver Eric Decker said.

While the Broncos stormed into the playoffs, the Falcons, who already had the NFC's top seed secured, gained no momentum Sunday, losing to Tampa Bay. "Before this game was played, we were the No. I seed in the playoffs, at the end of the game, nothing has changed," Falcons tight end Tony Gonzalez reasoned. "We're a very good team; we'll just use this as a wake-up call."

Says another Atlanta veteran, cornerback A s a nt e S a m uel: "We're going to p r actice like champs. And we're going to play like champs from now on."

ly made them a legitimate contender.

"I feel like I wish so much that we had got it done last year," Carroll said. "We didn't capture it quickly enough. It just didn't come around like we wanted it to. But we'll take it.

We'll take it where we are. It's been three terrific years for us in retooling the program and the roster and the staff and getting everything right. We really feel the momentum in the youth and the hopefulness for the future is there."

When that 2010 playoff appearance came the Seahawks' way, they were a flawed team, fortunate to play in what at that time was the worst division in football. Carroll's defensive philosophies were still being implemented and the offense was a jumbled mess. There was little continuity on the offensive line.

Marshawn Lynch had arrived in a trade from Buffalo, but Seattle had yet to figure out the best ways to use its new bruising back. Most important, the quarterback position was unsettled, with Matt Hasselbeck the entrenched veteran and Charlie Whitehurst the upstart.

They were rarely competitive, falling by an average margin of 21 points in their nine losses. Only one of their seven regular-season wins came against a team that finished with a winning record.

While still having some flaws, this Seattle team is far more complete. The defense finishedthe season as the No. 1 scoring defense in the NFL, giving up just 15.3 points per game. They wereNo. 4 in the league overall, the highest year-end ranking for Seattle in team history.

So will the Broncos. Coach John Fox is using the bye week to stay sharp, calling for short, crisp practices today, Thursday and Friday and a mandatory weightlifting session Saturday, mainly to keep the team "focused, not concerned with flights to other states and those type of things, especially close states."

Like Nevada, where oddsmakers have made the Broncos the favorite to win the Super Bowl.

Of course, the Packers were in this position last year.

It's not just in the NFL where the season's best team usually falters in the playoffs.

In the past 10 seasons, only two teams in each of the other major pro sports leagues parlayed the best regular-season record into a championship, according to STATS, LLC. They were: the 2007 Boston Red Sox and the 2009 New York Yankees in baseball, the 2002-03 San Antonio Spurs and the 2007-08 Boston Celtics in the NBA, and the Detroit Red Wings in the NHL in 2001-02 and 2007-08.

Since the first Super Bowl, the team with the best regular-season record has won just 21 of 46 championships, or 46 percent, which is more than in the NHL

(42 percent), NBA (41 percent) and MLB (28 percent), according to STATS. "Everyone wants to have the best record, win the division and play at home for the playoffs, but in my opinion, the team that is playing the best has the best opportunity," said NFL N etwork analyst Kurt Warner, a former MVP and Super Bowl champion. "This game is always about confidence and momentum. If you have it, you're tough to beat, nobody wants to play you and it gives you a distinct advantage. It starts in the regular season and you want to be playing well down the stretch."

With that in mind, here is how the dozen playoff teams rank from hottest to coolest:

Offensively, the Seahawks have morphed offensive coordinator Darrell Bevell's system around what Wilson does best, using his athleticism and quickness as a threat to complement Lynch's violent running. Lynch's success is largely because of the zone-blocking schemes putin place by assistant head coach Tom Cable and finding linemen who fit what Seattle wants to do.

From the playoff win over New Orleans in 2010 to now, the Seahawks will have 15 different starters on the field against the Redskins.

"We're young and we're fast and we're tough and we've created a physical nature about us that we're really proud of. It goes from offense todefense to special teams," Carroll said. "We're just going to try to keep getting better. We've got a long ways to go."

Wilson tied Peyton Manning's rookie record with 26 touchdown passes on a thirdquarter scoring pass in Sunday's win over St. Louis. He had a chance to hold the record himself but instead ran for a I-yard touchdown with 1:39 left to give Seattle a 20-13 victory.

Wilson finished the season with a 100.0 passer rating, the highest in franchise history.

He passed for 3,118 yards, added another 489 yards rushing, had 30 combined touchdowns running and passing, and became the first rookie quarterback in NFL history to go 8-0 at home.

"Did Peyton go to the playoffs his first year? No," Seattle fullback Michael Robinson said after Sunday's win. "OK. Then you know who I think is better."

The R8 A and USGA announced late last year that anchored strokes used for the belly putter and long putter will be banned starting in 2016. The question is whether the PGA Tour, which has the right to set its own rules, will enact the new rule much sooner.

There already is evidence of a stigma attached to those who anchor their putters — Keegan Bradley said a fan called him a cheater at the World Challenge last month — and it might be in the best interest of the tour to make the change quickly. But when? At the end of the FedEx Cup, meaning a player can use a belly putter in September but not October? At the start of 2013, meaning the rule would change in the middle of a season'?

5. Masters invitations For the past six years, the Masters has been awarding invitations to winners of PGA Tour events that offer full FedEx Cup points. The Fall Series did not count, nor did the events opposite a major or World Golf Championship.

One problem. Starting later this year, there is no Fall Series. When the tour goes to the wraparound season, there will be an additional six tournaments that under the previous policy would award the winner a spot in the Masters.

The concern for Augusta National is keeping a small field — it has not had more than 100 players since 1966. The question is whether the tour's change will mean an end to tournament winners driving down Magnolia Lane.

6. All-male clubs Just because Augusta National now has two women in green jackets does not mean the debate over all-male clubs is going away. If anything, it might be more intense than ever when the British Open returns to Muirfield. There are no female members in the "Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers," no rare there any female members of the Royal & Ancient Golf Club.

That received cursory criticism over the years, though most of the scrutiny was on the Masters. Now that the British Open is the only major played in which the host club has no women on its membership rolls, R8r.A chief executive Peter Dawson might have some explaining to do — if he's not too busy talking about changes to the Old Course.

7. Distance debate Those concerned that distance is ruining the

game and making golf courses obsolete might appreciate a prediction in Golf Illustrated magazine that if the "carrying power of golf balls is to be still further increased all our golf courses will be irretrievably ruined as a test of the game."

That was in 1910, and the game has been evolv-

ing since.

The R8 A and USGA have leaned on their "Joint Statement of Principles" in 2002 when it comes to distance. Even so, R8 A's Dawson sounded an ominous tone while announcing the ban on anchored strokes.

"We haven't shelved distance. It's very much on the radar," Dawson said. "Anchored strokes are separate.Just because we're doing one doesn't m ean we have taken our eye offthe other."

Stay tuned.

8. Minors vs. majors With the PGA Tour starting a new season in October, the only way to earn a card will be through a series of four tournaments called "The Finals" that will include the top 75 players from the Web.com Tour and the next 75 players from the PGA Tour who fail to qualify for the FedEx Cup playoffs.

Privately, the brass at PGA Tour headquarters is curious to see how the Web.com Tour players will fare against the second-tier PGA Tour players who faced stiffer competition and tougher golf courses all year.

9. Tiger Woods and Jack Nicklaus were talking about rivalries a decade ago when Nicklaus told him it was important to always be part of the conversation. That has never been a problem for Woods.

Even with McIlroy assuming the role of golf's No. I player, Woods is part of every conversation in golf.

The only difference is the context.

Can he end a four-year drought in the majors?

Can he get back to No. I? Will he ever dominate as he once did?

The new season should provide some answers.

By Elon Glucklich The Bulletin

Developers of Bend's NorthWest Crossing neighborhood have started planning to push home construction west of Mt. Washington Drive for the first time.

The development group filed a land use application with the city of Bend in December outlining plans to add between 200 and 250 home lots on 98 acres north of Summit High School. The plans also call for a new park, called Discovery Park, on the land.

Actual construction is still at least a year away, said David Ford, general manager of West Bend Property Co., which has been developing NorthWest Crossing.

Ford said developers would likely start readying the land to develop home lots in late 2013.

"We've got quite a bit of earth work to do out there," Ford said.

The land used to be a pum-

ice mining site, he said, so crews will need to dig up and then repackthe land to ensure it is stable enough to build homes on. The Bend-La Pine school district paid $7 million to fix Summit High School's

athletic fields after a 2006 storm created large sinkholes.

Developers also need a green light from the city to incorporate the area into NorthWest Crossing's current zoning plan, which would allow home-

building. The 98-acre parcel is currently zoned as forestland.

But Ford said the zoning change should be routine, putting developers on track to lay out a plan for new roads at the site next spring. The development group has owned the parcel since 1999, according to Deschutes County property records.

"We should be submitting a more detailed tentative plan around March," Ford said.

The blueprints filed in December show a plan for at least 10 new roadwayswestward extensions of High Lakes Loop, Colter Avenue, Lemhi Pass Drive and Shields Drive, as well as the creation of new, unnamed streets.

Several rows of new homes would start at Mt. Washington Drive andstretch west before giving way to the planned Discovery Park. Part of the land, just north of Summit High School, could be zoned for multifamily housing, like

apartments, according to the planning documents.

If all goes well with the zoning process, Ford said, developers could break ground in early 2014, and possibly complete homes in late 2014.

The new development would complete the 483-acre NorthWest Crossing plan first drawn up by developers in 2000.

Across the neighborhood, about 700 homes have been built, as well as retail and commercial areas and Compass Park.

Ford said about 200 lots in the existing NorthWest Crossing area are still undeveloped.

He expects that number to be much smaller by the time the final section of the neighborhood comes onto the market.

"When we're all said and done, we anticipate that we'll probably have about 1,100 homes," Ford said.

JAY PEAK, Vt. — At this remote outpost by the Canadian border, Bill Stenger is overseeing what he says is the biggest economic development project Vermont has ever seen.

He is expanding Jay Peak ski resort, which he coowns, but he is also building a biomedical research firm and a window manufacturing plant, extending the runway at the airport and rehabilitating much of the nearby town of Newport, where he lives. There, he is developing the waterfront, adding the town's first hotel and a conference center and rebuilding an entire downtown block. He is also creating what he says is the largest indoor mountain bike park in the world and a state-ofthe art tennis center.

The price tag for the entire project, which Stenger says will create 10,000 direct and indirect jobs over several years, is $865 million.

But even more unusual than the size of the undertaking is the method by which Stenger and his business partner, Ariel Quiros, are financing it. They have tapped into a federal program that

gives green cards, or permanent residency, to foreigners who invest at least $500,000 in an American business — the reward for the investment is a chance at U.S.

Workers are busy on the roof of a new building at Jay Peak Resort in Jay, Vt., on Dec. 5. Developers with big plans for Jay Peak and nearby Newport have secured millions in financing through a program that gives foreigners a green card in exchange for an investment of at least $500,000. citizenship.

Stenger has attracted 550 foreign investors from 60 countries to put up $275 million for the first phase: a hotel at the Jay Peak ski complex, an indoor water park the size of a football field, an ice hockey arena, condominiums, restaurants and stores.

The second and third phases, now under way, require 1,000 additional foreign investors to put up $500 million to overhaul Newport and to develop the nearby Burke

Mountain ski area.

Stenger and Quiros are

putting up $90 million themselves. But even at $785 million, this is one of the single biggest projects in the country financed under the investor program.

But the sweeping overhaul has created concerns.

Some worry that Newport will become gentrified and too expensive, especially for olderresidents.They expect traffic jams. And some say that however beneficial the

project may be in creating short-term jobs, it will never attract enough business to sustain itself because the region is so remote.

"There's a level of nervousness — watching Bill spend money is like watching my grandson spend Monopoly money," said Chris Braithwaite, publisher of the local newspaper, The Barton Chronicle. "But Bill has been here a long time and has a real commitment to this community."

WASHINGTON — It's not too much of an exaggeration to say the U.S. economy was powered by car sales in 2012.

Auto companies are now expected to have sold 14.5 million new vehicles in 2012, according to Kelley Blue Book.

That's a 13 percent rise over last year and the highest number of sales since the financial crisis hit.

If cars hadn't been flying out of dealerships, the year would have looked considerably bleaker. Vehicle purchases by consumers alone accounted for roughly 30 percent of all economic growth in the first half of the year, according to Credit Suisse.

And what made this carbuying frenzy so striking is that 2012 also happened to be a terrible year for car recalls.

As auto analyst Jim Gorzelany reports, automakers had to recall some 14.3 million vehicles over the past year.

But that didn't slow down car sales one bit. Indeed, as Gorzelany explains, Toyota and Honda had to issue the greatest number of recalls in 2012 — Toyota with 5 million, Honda with nearly 3.4 million.

Yet bothcompanies increased their market share this year: Toyota's sales were up some 17.3 percent over last year, while Honda's were up nearly 25 percent.

AIG's message to America: Thanksfor the bailout!

By Neil Irwin The Washington Post

The giant insurance company that became the recipient of one of the biggest — and least popular — bailouts in historyhas a message for the American taxpayer: Hey, thanks a lot!

Just weeks after the Treasury sold off its final stake in AIG and closed out one of the

ugliest chapters of the 2008 financial crisis, the recipient of $180 billion in capital injections and loans is launching a new public relations offensive to try to rebuild a, shall we say, strained relationship with the average consumer.

The advertising campaign is titled "Thank You America," the company said in a news release Monday, and it debuted

New Year's Day. It spotlights the insurers' employees "telling AIG's story and sharing their pride in the company," and showing how the company has helped America rebuild after devastation — such as in Joplin, Mo., after a devastating tornado and in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. Look for the ads in college football bowl

games, NFL playoff games

and news shows including "The Today Show," "Good Morning America"and "60 Minutes."

Now that taxpayers have sold off their stake in the company — and made a tidy $22 billion profit in the process — it is perhaps not surprising that AIG wants to recast its image. It is reminiscent of the memorable Clint East-

wood Chrysler commercial in last year's Super Bowl that managed tomake buying a car from another bailed-out

company (and one now run

by Italians) feel like a patriotic duty. "This country can't be knocked out with one punch," Eastwood growled. "We get right back up again, and when we do the world is going to hear the roar of our engines."

While the sheer verticality of the route might turn off many runners and even hikers, Dan Howitt believes the unique nature of the trail should lure more endurance athletes to the Gorge.

Howitt, who lives part time in Bend and part time in Portland, holds what he believes is the fastest ascent time of Mount Defiance (I hour, 38 minutes) and the fastest round-trip time up and down the mountain (2:55).

But he says those times could easily be broken by others.

Located near Starvation Creek State Park just west of Hood River in the Columbia River Gorge, about a threehour drive north from Bend, Mount Defiance is the Gorge's tallest point at 4,960 feet in elevation.

LOS ANGELES — Where is the John Muir of the San Gabriel Mountains? The Ansel Adams of the San Bernardinos? The Donner Party of the San Jacintos?

All right, maybe one Donner Party was enough. But Muir, Adams and company are among the reasons the inland mountains of Southern California have never quite matched the attention won by their taller northern neighbors, the Sierra Nevada.

Still, hikers, board-riders, skiers and snowball-tossers in Southern California find no shortage of peace and exhilaration. Peaks and forests, lakes and trails, cabins and creeks. And m ost w i n ters, there's a fair amount of snow.

Here's a quick introduction to Big Bear, Lake Arrowhead

and Idyllwild.

Don't omit the overlook One of the best things about a local mountain trip is getting there. Yes, driving those twolane roads takes your full attention, but there are views to cherish asyou creep into the San Bernardino Mountains on State Route 330 (or, depending on traffic and your destination, State Route 18 or State

Route 38).

If you're on the 330, notice all those turnouts on the way?

Use them, not only to let tailgaters pass, but also to savor the views of the constantly rearranging clouds and ridges bristling with pines. At sunset, even basin smog can look heavenly from here.

In about 15 miles, most of your climbing will be done.

To celebrate, pause for a snack at Rocky's Roadhouse (32150 Hilltop, R u nning S p r ings).

From here, if there's enough

snow, you can go skiing or snowboarding at Snow Valley (35100 State Route 18, Run-

ning Springs).

Or if you're on a group retreat, perhaps you'll find yourself brandishing a bow and arrow at the Pali Mountain Retreat & Conference Center (30778 State Route 18, Run-

Idaho moose hunting permits have always been a coveted draw with the longest of odds.

But it's getting even more difficult to land one of the desirable tags. In response to declining moose numbers, the Idaho Department of Fish and Game is proposing to reduce the number of moose tags in many of the Clearwater Region's hunting units.

If approved by the Idaho Fish and Game Commission, it will be a continuation of a trend that has seen the number o f C l e arwater R egion moose permits plummet over the last decade.

"All I want to do," he said, "is see a bird at this point."

More than two hours into this pheasant hunt, the colorful rooster that one of Wilson's hunting partners had s h ot that morning was now a distant memory. Only one other pheasant had graced the skies since, and it was too far off to even try a shot.

The pheasant, once king of Iowa's nearly half-billiond ollar hunting i n dustry, i s vanishing from the state. Surveys show that the population in 2012 was the second lowest on record, 81 percent below the averageover the past four decades.

The loss, pheasant hunters say, is both economic and cultural. It stems from severalyears of excessively damp weather and animal predators.

But the factor inciting the most emotion is the loss of wildlife habitat as landowners increasingly chop down their brushy fields to plant crops to take advantage of rising commodity prices and farmland values.

Over the last two decades, Iowa has lost more than 1.6 million acres of habitat suitable for pheasants and other small game, the equivalent of a 9mile-wide strip of land stretching practically the width of the state. And these declines have been occurring nationwide.

"It's been a fairly precipitous drop and it's been fairly steady over the last 10 years or so," said Dave Koehler, a wildlife biologist with the department at Lewiston.

The agency doesn't have hard data on moose numbers.

Instead it relies on the success of hunters and anecdotal field sightings to gauge the health of the moose herd. By those measures, moose are strugg ling, particularly i n u n i t s south of the Lochsa River.

Koehler said th e d epartment prefersto have moose hunt success rates at or above 75 percent. After falling short of that goal, the department started cutting the n umber of tags offered in many of its hunt areas. " You would expect — i f things worked the way you want them to when you cut permits — you would see a jump in hunter success," he said. "Hunter success has pretty much been stable over time and therehave justbeen fewer permits."

The decline isn't confined to Idaho. Moose numbers have been falling across the West and in th e upper Midwest.

Wolves are an obvious culprit.

But Koehler said while predators are part of the problem, they may not be the most important factor. Scientists say habitat c h anges, p a rasites and warmer temperaturesrelated to climate changes are believed to be major drivers of the decline.

It's not all bad news for moose and moose hunters in the region. The department is proposing to increase permits in Units 8 and 8A. Hunter success rates in the two units have been at or near 100 percent for more than a decade.

The department will hold an open house meeting from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Jan. 3 at the Clearwater regional office to take comments on its moose proposal. Those who attend will be able to visit with department personnel about the proposed changes and provide their written comments.

Those unable t o a t t end the open house can c o mment at h t t p://fishandgame. idaho.gov/, or by calling the Clearwater regional office at 208-799-5010. Comments can also be submitted via email to idfginfo@idfg.idaho.gov, or by mail to Moose, Goat, Sheep Comments, c/o Idaho Fish and Game, P.O. Box 25, Boise ID 83707. Comments are due by Jan. 14.

The proposed changes will be submitted to the Idaho Fish and Game Commission for consideration and action during its annual meeting Jan. 1618 in Boise.

The Dallas Morning News

As you plan travel for the new year, consider these three Western destinations where history, character and adventure combine for family fun.

1. Telluride, Colo.: This National H i storic L a n dmark district, tucked within a box canyon and protected by towering, 14,000-foot peaks, provides a breathtaking setting for a family getaway any time of year.

Top-ranked alpine skiing gives way t o f l y -fishing,

parental nagging and slow hunt for snow pants, gloves, hats and coats, we made it out the door shortly before 10.

Right before w e r eached Century Drive, I noticed the van needed gas. We headed to a fuel purveyor. One attendant on duty. A two-minute transaction stretched to five, six, tick, tick, tick. Strange that we the people aren't allowed to pump our own gas, but we are ailowed to drive around in large vehicles full of the stuff.

Finally, we made itonto Century Drive and found our way into the long line of westbound cars. The car infront of us turned into Virginia Meissner Sno-park, popular with crosscountry skiers. A mile later, we reached more egalitari an Wanoga.

Here, snowshoers, crosscountry skiers recreating with their dogs, snowmobilers and sieddersalike manage tocoexist, just as the bumper stickers you see on some people's cars instruct.

We slow-crawled past a line of idling rigs lined up to get into the already-stuffed snowmobile iot, and made our way to Wanoga Snopiay Area. The lot nearest theiong, wide sledding hill was already peppered with vehicles, but we managed to find a spot. I grabbed the toboggan and left behind the plastic sled and snowboard that my kids have really outgrown but that I keep wishing they'd try.

W e made our way up the icy, snowy road to a less crowded patch of hill. Up w e h iked, a longside the n atural r u n s that develop from repeated usage. Other people's footsteps/ postholes made natural steps we could take. The snow was dense and well-packed — not too fluffy, not too frozen.

Just about perfect, in other words, for flying down. About three-quarters of the way up, I plopped the toboggan down.

"OK, who's goin'?" I asked.

The two hopped right on, my indoorsy, bookish daughters

"What could go wrong?" I thought, not rhetorically, as I watched other people zipping down the hill on either side of us. I wouldn't know the answer till I iet go, so I did.

And there it was: that sound like no other, a whoosh of gravity and friction that only sleds sliding on snow seem to make.

I watched them go, thankful for the toboggan. For a couple of years afterwe moved to Bend from Florida, my mom sent us gifts ordered from the L.L. Bean catalog. The toboggan even has a little tag with our kids' names on it. Unlike the snowshoes she once sent ail of us, it's held up through multiple winters. Of course, the fact that the last time the girls used it was four years ago has probably added to its lifespan.

Now, they're older and big-

ger, and far better suited to hiking up the hill unassisted — which they did in a hurry, after they popped off the toboggan at the bottom, and turned toward me bearing large, identicai grins.

I feltmy cranky, grinchyheart thaw a little. That snowboard stuck inside the van (well, maybea newer, larger one) might get used somedayafteraii.

In the meantime, it's the toboggan. While it la cked the zip and air time of other sleds we saw, its fine, lovingly handcrafted pine hull — or whatever overwritten language the L.L. Bean catalog writer used to entice my mom — makes for safer, more stable going, more so than the zippy, petroleumbased discs and other aerodynamic-looking things that looked like they were designed by formerBoeing engineers.

I saw one tyke on a purple

disc rotate backward, then get pitched, his head snapping back onto the snow, whereas our 5-foot-long, heavyweight

toboggan clung just enough to the hill, flexing over both natural dips. We didn't test it on any of the ramps that wannabe Knieveis made in direct defiance of Deschutes National Forest's rule against them.

In ail, we probably made a total of 10 or 12 runs. The girls took turns riding solo, then again in pairs. Eventually, we had to share our run with a group of young adults who pretty much took over the one we'd picked.

Ah, well. We were almost done anyway. When the girls said they'd had enough fun, I

jogged back up and enjoyed one last ride, a moment's respite from parenting, although, as I slid down, I looked for them as they played around in a little snow fort someone had dug at the foot of the hill.

As I waited for some hot chocoiates at the concession

trailer in the parking lot, I saw

a boy go off a jump, flip off a sled that had raised legs and land upside down. He iay there crumpled.

"Dad," as the concessionaire calls himself, heard my sympathetic "Oof!" or something to that effect. He asked how bad the spill was; he just knew somehow what had transpired.

Of course he knew somehow.

He's probably seen it ail from his little window.

We started talking about the ramps people build in the hillside, how the Forest Service doesn't like people making them. Dad said the Forest Service knocks them down, only for new ones to pop up like weeds.

M eanwhile, the k i d w a s still sitting there. Two adults walked over to check on him.

Eventually, he s a t u p r ight.

From a distance, he looked pretty dazed.

I was grateful for our successful sled outing: all fun, no lacerations,fractures, concussions or contusions.

Back in the van, Lucy sipped her hot chocolate,then piped up, "That was fun. I'm glad we went."

"Yeah, that was really fun," Lilly agreed.

We even managed to misplace cranky dad for a f ew hours. He was missed by no one during his absence.

Low, clear and dropping Steelhead are more active when the water temperature climbs to 42 degrees and above.

In January, February and March, anglers fishing the Sandy, Clackamas and coastal rivers should be ready to tap fish holding in deeper water. These fish are likely to be suspended higher in the water column.

Jeff Perin, who owns the Fly Fisher's Place in Sisters, likes to go prepared with a floating line and a sinking poly leader. "I don't want to get too deep, so I like Speyt ype flies with little or n o weight."

The clear water requires a stealthy approach, which means lengthening the leader and tippet.

"Fish a fly that gets their attention but doesn't spook them," Perin said. "Generally speaking, go with black and blue patterns."

One of Perin's favorites right now is Johnson's Lady Gaga Intruder, a Travis Johnson pattern from Montana Fly Company. "Blue is particularly good for winter fish."

Here is the weekly fishing report for selected areas in and around Central Oregon, provided by fisheries biologists for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife:

FLY-TYING CORNER

CENTRAL ZONE ANTELOPEFLATRESERVOIR: Fishing has been fair. The changing weather may make travel difficult, so be prepared for muddy or snowy road conditions. Anglers should be very careful when venturing onto the ice and follow safety procedures.

BEND PINENURSERYPOND:The most recent stocking was in late September with a number of onepound rainbow released.

CRESCENTLAKE:Opportunities for rainbow and brown trout are good.

CROOKED RIVERBELOW BOWMAN DAM:Fishing for trout has been good. Water levels have been consistent and fish are feeding on small mayfly and midge nymphs.

It appears the whitefish spawn is tapering off. The use of bait is prohibited until May. DESCHUTESRIVER (MOUTH TO THE PELTONREGULATING DAM): Summer steelhead fishing on the lower Deschutes is fair, as water clarity has improved significantly.

Fish are now well dispersed throughout the river, with good numbers of fish found by anglers from the mouth upstream to the Warm Springs Area. Trout fishing remains good for trout downstream from the Warm Springs Reservation Boundary. Best trout fishing typically occurs around midday, as the best light reaches the canyon floor. Fly anglers will find best success with nymphs along with egg patterns for trout and whitefish. Anglers are reminded trout angling is closed upstream from the Warm Springs Reservation Boundary.

FALL RIVER: Fishing is good. The river below the falls closed on Sept.

30. The river above the falls is open all year. Fishing is restricted to flyfishing with barbless hooks.

HOOD RIVER:The bulk of the summersteelhead run haspassed the fishery in the Hood River, although a few late fish may be present. Anglers may encounter a few stray, fin-clipped coho in

Defiance Continued from 01 Because Mount D efiance stays snow-free in the summer months, s o m e mountaineers climb it to train for climbing Mount Hood.

The Defiance Trail gains nearly 5,000 feet of elevation over its 5-mile length, with an average elevation grade of about 20percent. By comparison, the trail to the summit of South Sister in the Cascade Range just west of Bend gains about 5,600 feet in elevation over 6.25 miles.

Max King and Ryan Bak, elite distance runners from B end, claim they ow n t h e f astest known t im e t o t h e top of South Sister (I:26:18), which they achieved in October 2011. They needed 2:41 for the round trip.

"That was the first time I ever tried to ascend something as fast as I could," Bak says of the South Sister experience. "It was fun and new to me. There's definitely a whole crew of people who are very into that. It's very different than just going out for a run in the mountains. The way it fatigues your muscle groups is different when you're using the same muscle groups for two to three hours during an ascent."

Howitt says h e b e lieves Bak could easily break his Defiance Trail r ecord. But Howitt is not so much interested in keeping his record as he is in getting the word out about Mount Defiance to the trail-running community around the Northwest.

"There's so many incredible trail runners in Bend," Howitt says. "Seems like it would be a great personal challenge to see what they could do. It's such a rare thing to have this amount of elevation gain on a trail that's not technical.

"(Bak) would be much fast-

er than me. It would be embarrassing if he was shockingly faster, but I think that might be the case."

Bak, 31, says he had never even heard of M ount Defia nce until h e s p ok e w i t h Howitt about it this year. He hopes to make a trip there this spring.

"I'm definitely intrigued by it," Bak says, adding that he believes the Defiance Trail can be run and not just hiked. " Coming f ro m a r un n i n g background, that's the stuff I look for in a challenge like

By Luaine Lee McClatchy-Tribune News Service

BEVERLY HILLS, Calif.

You could never tell by looking at this dapper Englishman who plays the stalwart Earl of Grantham on "Downton Abbey," but when he was 7 years old Hugh Bonneville hurled a sledgehammer through the family's kitchen window.

It was no t i n d icative of things to c ome, Bonneville insists.

"I'm not prone to temper tantrums. I used to be a bad sulker. We're not a s h outy family, and nowadays I can forgive but I don't forget," he says. "I'm a Scorpio. If you have a go at a Scorpio they can get you back sometime," he laughs, easing into a wingchair in a hotel meeting room here.

The occasion of the sledgehammer was prompted by his older sister's teasing.

"She was annoying me. So I chased her through the garden, and she went back inside, shut the k i tchen door a n d went, 'Nah, nah' through the kitchen window. And I saw a sledgehammer and popped it through the window. Cut to my dad chasing me round the garden andIgotabig smacked bottom. That changed my life.

That was a big lesson."

Bonneville has been acting for 26 years, but it took the mysterious alchemy of an -

As Lord Grantham, Hugh Bonneville (at center right) leads an ensemblecaston "Downton Abbey." absorbing script, astute producers and a dream cast of "Downton Abbey" to elevate him to star status.

That doesn't really m atter because, like every actor, Bonneville says he still worries where the next job is coming from. " 'Downton A bbey' i s a

He didn't always want to be an actor. At one point Bonneville desperately longed to be a lawyer.

ior lawyer — he said, 'Look, you haven't even gone to university yet, just calm down and come back and see me in four years time and I'll bet you won't want to be a lawyer.'

"I said, 'No, I will. I WILL.' He said, 'Just go and have some fun, and do your plays.'

That was the best advice, because I realized that really what I was enjoying was the theatricality of the courtroom.

"I would've been a terrible advocate thinking on my feet.

I can improvise in a rehearsal situation, but when someone's liberty is at stake or a point of law — I saved the legal profession from a lot of headaches."

The phenomenal success o f "Downton A b bey" s u r prised everyone and fans are hotly awaiting the premiere of Season 3 on PBS stations on Sunday.

"I've not been in a show that's had the impact 'Downton Abbey' has had around the world," says Bonneville, 49.

"But the work is the same discipline, and I have the same approach to the work as I do with any other project. For the show to have it hit in a way we all find overwhelming, in a lovely way, is quite humbling, really. Because most of the time it doesn't happen."

He says it has changed his life in a peculiar way. "Getting through customs is h a rder now. They think, 'Oh, you think y ou're so-and-so,' so they give me a bit of a hard

"Just coming here yesterday at Heathrow they had to empty everything out of my bag. It's great because I found a pen I've been missing. It's a privilege to be so thoroughly searched," he grins.

While he's no d a redevil, B onneville admits t hat h e loves the challenge of performing a role to which he feels inadequate.

"But that's thrilling when you're sent a script or invited to audition for a project and you think, 'I CAN'T do this.

It's outside my r a nge, my compass.' And when they say, 'Well, you're going to play the part,' you get terribly nervous.

And then you raise your game.

"A couple o f p r o jects I thought, 'No one is going to cast me in t h is.' 'Daniel Deronda,' Tom Hooper, who directed 'The King's Speech' directed that and cast me. I loved it because it wasn't the sort of part I played before.

Sweden wins the gold

By FRANK STEWART Tribune Media Services

Sweden won the Open Teams at the 2012 World Championships in L ille, France. England took t h e Women's title. Hungary won the Seniors event, beating the United States in the final.

In the Open, Sweden ousted the U.S. in a quarterfinal match in which the U.S.chucked away many points.

In today's deal, East for the U.S. opened one heart, and Sweden's South doubled, ignoring his skimpy values and the adverse vulnerabilty.

He was made sorry when West redoubled.

After two passes,South rescued himself to one spade, but the mission failed: West doubled. South managed four tricks, minus 800.

o pens one h eart, y o u b i d t w o diamonds, he rebids two hearts and you try three clubs. Partner next bids three diamonds. What do you say?

ANSWER: I wouldn't be eager to rush into 3NT: If partner has a hand such as 3 2, K Q J 5 4, A 4 3, Q J 4, t hat contract w o ul d h a v e l i t t l e chance. Still, game prospects are too good to pass. Your best call is three spades, showing something in the suit but doubt about notrump.

That looked like a U.S. gain, but at the other table East for S weden opened two hearts, 10 to 15 points ... and South for the U.S. doubled!

W hy players at t hi s l e vel o f competition won't exercise a little discretion in obvious situations is a mystery. This time South ended at two spades doubled, minus 1,100.

And Sweden gained seven IMPs in a match the U.S. eventually lost by four.
