Governor wants higher ed umbrella agency

By Ben Botkln The Bulletin

Gov. John Kitzhaber wants more organization in the effort to fund and support Oregon's postsecondaryeducation system.

Kitzhaber, in his budget for the 20132015 biennium, proposed a Department of Post-Secondary Education that would guide the state's work in higher education, including community colleges and universities. The idea is to put different parts of state involvement in postsecondaryeducation under one umbrella, said Kitzhaber's education policy advisor Ben Cannon.

The proposed department isn't intended to replace or eliminate the local governance of community college boards, he said.

"Our commitment is to ensure that community colleges remain governed by strong and independent local boards," Cannon said.

LEGAL NOTICES AND THE LAW

A private mortgage database set up by the country's biggest lenders drove the home-financing industry to record profits over the last decade.

But cracks in the Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems business model has h omeowners, attorneys, counties a n d states crying foul. They are pushing back against MERS, whose virtual cache of 27 million mortgages lets lenders sell them to investors and other lenders, allegedly without publicly recording each transfer

ELECTION 2012

Local precincts voted red with pockets ofblue If the vote for the presidency came down to Central Oregon, Mitt Romney would have won handily. Of the 100,305 votes cast for the presidency in Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties (not counting ballots left blank or that had more than one bubble filled in), 53,895, or just under 54 percent, were for the Republican candidate. In county-certified results it appears that Republican support enjoys a large geographic advantage, though not all precincts contain the same number of voters. Most are concentrated in Central Oregon's cities, which in some cases means more Democratic support.

dollar amount could be. But Commissioner Tammy Baney said the possibility of lost fees is a real concern.

The Multnomah County Commission voted 5-0 last month to file a lawsuit against MERS. The commissioners said MERS' practice of selling mortgages without recording transfers in the county clerk's office deprived the county of $3 million to $24 million in recording fees, a portion of which could have been used to fund other programs.

Multnomah County's lawsuit is expected to be formally filed in the coming weeks.

in the county in which the property is located.

County clerks collect fees when legal documents are filed, with the proceeds typically financing clerk's office operations and supporting county general funds. So the failure to file property records would reduce revenues and preventthe public from knowing who owns or has an interest in their homes.

Deschutes County may have been shortchanged millions of dollars in recording fees since MERS was founded in 1995.

Oregon Lottery results

If the president wants to avoid an economic calamity next year, he could always show up at a news conference bearing two shiny platinum coins, each worth ... $1 trillion.

This sounds utterly insane.

But some economists and legal scholarshave suggested that the "platinum coin solution" is one way to defuse a crisis if Congress cannot or will not lift the debt ceiling soon. At least in theory.

The U.S. government is, after all, facing a real problem. The Treasury Department will hit its $16.4 trillion borrowing limit

by February at the latest. Unless Congress reaches an agreement to lift the debt ceiling, the government will no longer be able to borrow enough money to pay all its bills.

Last year, Republicans in Congress r e sisted r a i sing the debt ceiling until the last minute — and then only in exchange for spending cuts. Panic ensued. So what happens if there is another showdown this year?

Enter the platinum coins.

Under current law, the Treasury is technically allowed to mint as many coins made of platinum as it wants and can assign them whatever value it pleases.

Under this scenario, the U.S. Mint would make a pair of trillion-dollar platinum coins. The president orders the coins to be deposited at the Federal Reserve. The Fed moves this money into Treasury's accounts.

And just like that, Treasury suddenly has an extra $2 trillion to pay off its obligations for the next two years — without needing to issue new debt. The

would have to start shutting down parts of t h e g overnment so it does not default on its debt. That, in theory, would prod Congress to act.

"All those other ideas (such as the platinum coin option) are very uncertain, and they could lead to complicated litigation," Balkin said. "A government shutdown is much more straightforward."

The platinum coin is only one of many out-of-the-box ideas that have been proposed to avoid a debt-ceiling crisis. Some

ceiling is no longer an issue.

"I like it," said Joseph Gagnon of the Peterson Institute for International Economics.

"There's nothing that's obviously economically problematic about it."

In theory, this is much like having the central bank print money. But, Gagnon said, the U.S. government would simply be using the money to keep spending at existing levels, so it would not create any extra inflation. And if it did cause problems, the Fed could always counteract the effects by winding down some of its other programs to inject money into the economy.

Is the platinum coin option really legal? Apparently so.

It was raised during the 2011 debt-ceiling crisis by Jack Balkin, a law professor at Yale Law SchooL Under law, he noted, there's a limit to how much paper money the United States can circulate at any one time, and there are rules that limit how many gold, silver and copper coins the Treasury can mint.

But there's no such limit when it comes to platinum coins. It's right there in the U.S. legal code: "The Secretary may mint and issueplatinumbullion coins and proof platinum coins in accordancewith such specifications, designs, varieties,

TOP T ORIES IN BRIEF Syrian rebel leaders begin coordinating B EIRUT — R e bel c o m manders from across Syria have joined forces under a united command they hope will increase coordination between diverse fighting groups and streamline the pathway for arms essential to t h eir struggle a gainst P r esident Bashar Assad.

While many of the brigades involved in the fighting are decidedly Islamist in outlook and some have boasted about executing captured soldiers, two of the most extreme groups fighting in Syria were not invited to the rebel meeting in Turkey or included in the new council — a move that could encourage Western support.

Disorganization has bedeviled Syria's rebel movement since its birth late last year, when some protesters gave up on peaceful means to bring down Assad's regime and took up arms, forming the base of what became theFree Syrian Army.

But the movement has never actually been an army. Scores of rebelgroups battle Assad's forces across th e c o untry, m any coordinating with n o one outside of their own area.

Nelson Mandela hospitalized for tests JOHANNESBURG — South Africa's former President Nelson Mandela was admitted to a military hospital Saturday for medical tests, though the nation's president told the public therewas "no cause for alarm" over the 9 4-year-old icon's health.

ThestatementissuedbyPresident Jacob Zuma's spokesman said that Mandela was doing well and was receiving medical care "which is consistent for his age." The statement offered no other details.

Mandela, who spent 27 years in prison for f ighting racist white rule, became South Africa's first black president in 1994 and servedone five-year term.

Big donors get access at inauguration WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama's finance team is offering corporations and other institutions that contribute $1 million exclusive access to an array of inaugural festivities, includingtickets to a"benefactors reception," a children's concert, a candlelight celebration at the National Building Museum, two reserved parade bleacher seats and four tickets to the president's official inaugural ball.

The o ff erings a r e de tailed in an online inaugural fundraising solicitation provided by an Obama fundraiser; the document describesfour packages that Obama's finance team can sell, with differinglevels ofaccess depending on the level of contribution. Individuals who contribute $250,000 will receive the same package as million-dollar "institutional donors," which could include corporations, philanthropies, foundations and unions.

The f i n ancing a r r a ngements are a departure from Obama's policy in 2009, when he refused corporate donations altogether.

HANUKKAH BEGINS

Morsi rescinds order granting him new powers The Washington Post CAIRO — Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi early today annulled most of an extraordinary Nov. 22 decree that gave him near-absolute power and has plunged this nation into a deeply divisive political crisis.

The decree, which Morsi had said was necessary to move Egypt's d emocratic t ransition forward, will be replaced by a modified version of the original declaration. But the most controversial article, which placed all of Morsi's actions beyond judicial review, is gone, said Mohammad Salim al-Awa, spokesman for a n a t ional p olitical di a l ogu e he l d Saturday.

That satisfies a key demand of opposition leaders, though the article has already served its purpose for Morsi. He had used it to protect an Islamist-dominated constitution-writing p a nel from dissolution by Egypt's highest court, enabling the panel to pass a controvers ial draft charter. And a Dec. 15 referendum that opposition forces had wanted canceled will go ahead as planned, Awa said.

All but a handful of opposition figures had boycotted the national dialogue, saying that if the referendum was going ahead, there was nothing to talk about.

It remains unclear wheth-

er the compromise will be enough to calm a political crisis that has split the revolutionary allies who ousted strongman Hosni Mubarak nearly two years ago. In recent days, the crisis has degenerated into violent scenes of division, with Morsi's Islamist backers and his secular, liberal and non-Islamist opponents beating each other bloody with rocks, sticks and clubs.

Further details of the new constitutional decree were unclear. But as the national dialogue got underway Saturday, Morsi appeared to be preparing to grant the military broad powers to arrest civilians and keep public order until a new constitution is approved and parliamentary elections are held, according to a report Saturday in the state-run newspaper al-Ahram.

The move was approved b y M o r si's c a binet, t h e newspaper said, and would require him to issue a new decree for it to take effect, which Morsi had not done by late Saturday, U.S. time.

The nation's armed forces followed that report with a broadcast statement Saturday afternoon clearly supp orting Morsi's call for a dialogue to end the crisis, saying that anything else would lead the nation into a "dark tunnel that will result in catastrophe."

Hamas' leadersaysIsrael will becomePalestine New York Times NewsService GAZA CITY, Gaza StripKhaled Meshal, the political leader of Hamas, gave a defiant speech on Saturday, vowing to build an Islamic Palestinian state on all the land of Israel, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.

Speaking before tens of thousands o f su p p orters t o celebrate the 25th a n niversary of t h e f o unding of Hamas, Meshal said the Jewish state would be wiped away through "resistance," or military action. "The state will come from resistance, not negotiation," he said. "Liberation first, then statehood."

His voice rising to a shout, Meshal said: "Palestine is ours from the river to the sea and from the south to the north.

There will be no concession on any inch of the land." He vowed that all Palestinian refugees and their descendants would one day return to their homes in what is now Israel.

"We will never recognize the legitimacy of the Israeli occupation, an d t h erefore there is no legitimacy for Israel, no matter how long it will take," he said. "We will free Jerusalem inch by inch,stone by stone. Israel has no right to

Banks facenewwave of lawsuits New York Times News Service The nation's largest banks are facing afresh torrent of lawsuits asserting that they sold shoddy mortgage securities that imploded during the financial crisis, potentially a dding significantly to t h e tens of billions of dollars the banks have already paid to settle other cases.

Regulators, p r o secutors, investors and insurers have filed dozens of new claims against Bank o f A m e rica, JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Citigroup and others, related to more than $1 trillion worth of securities backed by residential mortgages.

Estimates of potential costs from thesecases vary widely, but some in the banking industry fear they could reach $300 billion if the institutions

lose all of the litigation. Dethe costscould depress profits and hamper the economic recovery by weakening the banks' ability to lend just as the housing market is show-

He promised Palestinian unity, but only on the basis of Hamas' principles, which would mean a subordinate role for Fatah, the main Palestinian faction in the West Bank. He called the United Nations General Assembly's vote g r a nting Palestinians enhanced status as a nonmember observer state — engineered by President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority, which governs the West Bank — "a small step but a good one."

nance Agency, which oversees the housing twins Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, filed against 17 banks last year, claiming that they duped the mortgage finance giants into buying shaky securities. Last month, lawyers for some of the nation's largest banks descended on a federal appeals court in Manhattan to make their case that the agency had waited too long to sue.

A favorable ruling could overturn a decision by Judge Denise Cote, who is presiding over the litigation and has so far rejected virtually every defense raised by the banks, and would be cheered in bank boardrooms. It could also allow the banks to avoid federal housing regulators' claims.

Loophole Continued from A1 He certainly never made the 192-mile drive from his Albany practiceto Buckhead to see patients or review medical records.

Federal officials probably should have grown suspicious two years ago when someone using the name Olga Teplukhina incorporated the fictitious medical practice, applied for a National Provider Identification number and claimed a UPS mailbox as the practice location.

Then again, the box is the largest size UPS offers.

"So have they been billing stuff'?" Dr. Harry Dorsey asked when the Atlanta Journal-Constitution told him the suspicious provider number was still active. "That's identity fraud, and that really ticks me off."

For years, officials at the agency that administers Medicare have known that fraudsters sign up as health care providers using UP S Store mailboxes and other post office box like addresses as their location. But the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services says it lacks the technology to identify these locations because they look like legitimate street addresses, not like the easily identified post office box addresses.

CMS doesn't even stop providersfrom using post office boxes, though. They k n ow they should and they know it's simple, but the agency still has in its system nearly 300 providers nationwide using post office boxes as their location, according to an AJC analysis of theCMS provider registry.

So when will CMS be able to flag the providers using UPS Store addresses and boot any scammers? The agency says it has no timeline.

CMS officials insist they don't need to hurry because

"If one company is defrauding the Medicare trust fund, that's one too m any," said Kelly McCoy, assistant special agent in charge of the watchdog agency in Atlanta. "This

Huarte opened 29 clinics in Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, North Carolina an d S outh Carolina, many in abandoned store fronts and others in UPS Store mailboxes. He paid straw owners up to $200,000 to incorporate the clinics and then flee the country if law enforcement found them.

In Atlanta, Huarte's Elusive Quality, located at a UPS Store on P eachtree Street, billed Medicare for $3.5 million. Another clinic, Strong Hope Company, located ata UPS Store mailbox on Roswell Road, billed Medicare for $2 million. Both still have active CMS provider numbers.

He used stolen insurance numbers from Medicare-eligible patients, obtaining them from employeesof a callcenter that signed people up for Medicare services.

The criminal organization either bribed doctors for their billing information or, if that didn't work, they stole it. Huarte and his associates hired doctorsto serve as a medical director for clinics. If a doctor became suspicious and left, Huarte kept using their billing information.

Even when law enforcement officials uncovered one of his phony c o mpanies, H u arte could easily abandon it and incorporate a new clinic at another UPS Store mailbox.

process should — probably, hopefully — snag anyone using a UPS Store as a practice location because it involves a more stringent review.

Don't tell that to Ryan Stumphauzer,a former federalprosecutor in the Southern District of Florida who specialized in health care fraud.

"They've got a f ake NPI, they've got a fake address, but they're not concerned yet'?" he asked.

"That's like seeing a man pacing back and forth in front of a bank with a mask on and he has something tucked under his shirt, but you don't do anything because he hasn't gone into the bank yet," Stumphauzer said. "Not addressing these problems up front is what costs the system $60 billion each year."

Even if the phony health care provider doesn't bill Medicare directly, the government is left vulnerable to other fraud schemes, said Malcolm Sparrow, a professor of public management at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government.

Using a sham provider number and a UPS Store address, a scam artist can provide what looks like a real physician's approval for unnecessary or nonexistent medical services and equipment for a company that is registered to bill Medicare.

Should CMS ask the doctor if the services or equipment were necessary, the agency's inquiry goes to the UPS Store mailbox. The fraudster then assures the agency of the need.

While CMS o ff icials say they can't find these fake medical providers, identifying them is not hard.

The AJC used an inexpensive software program and a list of UPS Store addresses found on the Internet. That turned up 131 CMS-registered medical p r o v iders a c r oss metro Atlanta claiming a UPS Store as their practice location.

Most likely filled out their paperwork incorrectly and are not committing fraud. Some were alreadyunder investigation, while others have been identified as fronts for fraud schemes and theperpetrators prosecuted and convicted.

But several physicians said they were stunned when the AJC told them a provider number was created using their name.

And two dozen of the 131 identified by the AJC are now under review by a f e d eral contractorafter the newspaper brought its findings to the attention of the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services Office of the Inspector General.

Taxmat s owsraisin to rate isn't enou

By Jackie Cafmes New York Times News Service

DeWASHINGTON spite hints in recent days that President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner might compromise on the tax rate to be paid by top earners, a host of other knotty tax questions could still derail a deal to avert a fiscal crisis in January.

The math shows why. Even if Republicans were to agree to Obama's core demand — that the top marginal income rates return to the Clinton-era levels of 36 percent and 39.6 percent after Dec. 31, rather than stay at the Bush-era rates of 33 percent and 35 percent — the additional revenue would be only about a quarter of the $1.6 trillion that Obama wants to collect over 10 years. That w ould be about half of t h e $800 billion that Republicans have said they would be willing to raise.

That calculation alone suggeststhe scope ofthe other major tax issues to be negotiated beyond tax rates. And that is why many people in both parties remain unsure that a deal will come together before Jan. 1. Without agreement, more than $500 billion in automatic tax increases on all Americans and cuts in domestic and military programs will take hold, which could cause a recession if left in place for months, economists say.

"The question is m a king sure that we hit a revenue target that's required for a truly balanced def i c it-reduction plan," said Rep. Chris Van Hollen of Maryland, the senior Democrat on the House Budget Committee. "And when the president and all of us say this is a question of math, we mean it. It's very hard to make the numbers work without the top rates going back to the full Clinton-era levels."

The top tax rates are taking centerstage right now because Obama believes he won a mandate after campaigning relentlessly on the idea of extending George W. Bush's tax cuts only for households with annual income below $250,000. But the two parties also have ideological differences on taxes affecting savings, investment and inheritance, which have flared in battles going back to the Reagan years. To get a deal in the coming weeks, those differencesmust be addressed at least in broad terms, even if the details are left to a battle over revamping the tax code next year.

The argument over rates is far from settled. Although the two sidesseem close enough on the percentages for easy c ompromise, principle a n d politics loom large: Republicans oppose raising rates as a matter of ideology, saying that it kills jobs, and the president insists that he will not keep the Bush-era rates on income above roughly $250,000 after two campaigns in which he vowed to return them to the levels of the Clinton years.

"Just to be clear, I'm not go-

PresidentBarack Obama, accompanied by House Speaker John Boehner of Ohio,speaks to reporters in the Roosevelt Room of the White House in Washington. As the two sides head toward the "fiscal ciff," a range of tax issues need to be negotiated, leaving many in both parties unsure a deal will come together by the Jan. 1 deadline. ing to sign any package that s omehow prevents the t o p rate from going up for folks at the top 2 percent," he said Thursday.

In recent days,comments from some Republicans, including Boehner, their chief negotiator, have hinted that the party — recognizing its weak hand — might be moving toward a concession on tax rates. Seldom mentioned is that Obama's revenue total also reflects four other changes from Bush-era tax cuts: higher tax rates on investment income from capital gains and dividends, and the restoration of two other Clinton-era provisions limiting deductions and tax exemptions for affluent individuals.

Together t h ose c h anges would raise $407.4 billion over a decade — nearly as much as the president's proposal on higher rates, which would raise $441.6 billion by 2023, for a total of $849 billion. Another $119 billion would come from higher estatetaxes, opposed b y Republicans and s o me Democrats.

And both the president and Republicans are committed to raising hundreds of billions of dollars by overhauling the tax code to further limit or end the tax breaks that high-income taxpayers can claim, though they differ on how to do that.

Republicans want to raise all $800 billion from overhauling the tax code, erasing tax breaks for high-income households and using the new revenues both to reduce deficits and to lower everyone's tax rates. But they have not proposed how to do that, and the president insists it cannot be done without hitting middleincome taxpayers.

Obama has p r oposed to keep existing tax breaks but to limit the rate of those breaks for people in higher tax brackets to 28 percent, which would raise $584 billion in a decade.

He has proposed variations of that proposal for four years, only tobe ignored by both parties because of opposition from

charitable groups, the housing industry,insurers and others to curbing deductions for char-

itable giving, mortgage insur-

ance and other purposes.

Roughly splitting the difference on the top rates — settling at 35 percent and 37 percent — would collect nearly $200 billion over 10 years, under half the amount that would be raised if the rates reverted to Clinton-era levels, according to data from Citizens for Tax Justice and the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy, research groups that advocate for a progressive tax code.

In the years of debate over the Bush tax cuts, which predates Obama's first election, $ 800 billion ha s b een t h e rough estimate for how much revenue couldbe raised in the first decade by ending them for the highest-income 2 percent of taxpayers. But most attention focused on the top rates, which account for half of the revenue equation.

The remainder would come fromthe other four tax changes for Americans with the highest income, two raising taxes on investment income from capital gains and dividends and two restoring restrictions on the itemized deductions and exemptions claimed by high earners.

Under Obama's plan, the tax rates for long-term capital gains and dividends, now 15 percent, would revert to 20 percent for capital gains and to 39.6 percent for dividends, the same as for ordinary income. Republicans oppose the increases, and Senate Democrats oppose the proposed tax on dividends; their bill would tax both dividends and capital gains at 20 percent.

People in both parties say that the four tax issues can be readily worked out. Obama is widely expected to give ground on the main sticking point, the dividends tax. Yet that would

mean roughly $100 billion less in additional revenue over 10 years than his current proposal for the higher dividend tax.

Another dispute is over estate and gift taxes. Here again Democrats are divided within as well as against Republicans, and big money is at stake — $118.8 billion through 2022 under Obama's plan, or $143.3 billion counting assorted other adjustments.

MORTGAGES AND MERS

FORECLOSURES AND THELEGISLATURE

Two waystotrade mortgages Because of the complex process of securitization, a homeowner's mortgage may be sold to other lenders numerous times over the life of the loan. Mortgage investors purchase bundles of mortgages pooled together under the securitization process. Counties take in revenueQS from recording fees when mortgages are filed, sold and paid in full. Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, created in the1990s

by the country's biggest mortgage lenders, allegedly enabled banks to transfer mortgages numerous times without paying county fees required when loans aresold. Thescenarios are shown below, with Deschutes Countyastheexample.

Continued from A1 County leaders across the state are watching that case closely, including officials in Deschutes County.

"I have asked our interim county administrator to put together a work session discussion soon so that we could discuss any next steps for Deschutes County," Baney wrote in an email to The Bulletin.

Bend's single-family housing market was one of the hottest in the country from 200207, as more than 11,000 home sales caused median home prices to nearly double, according to Oregon Association of Realtors data.

The MERS name was rubber-stamped on thousands of mortgage documents filedover that time, listing themselves as the beneficiary of loans being transferred from one title company to another, Deschutes County deeds records show.

Help with foreclosure For information about

foreclosure prevention programs administered by the state of Oregon, visit

http://oregonhomeowner support.gov

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

SALEM — A battle waging across the nation — pitting homeowners against bankswill also likely be fought again in the Oregon Legislature's

upcoming session.

State lawmakers tackled the foreclosure crisis last session, creating a new law, Senate Bill 1552, that allows homeowners in nonjudicial foreclosures to get their lenders into the same room with a mediator to discuss ways to avoid foreclosure.

But that law, combined with an Oregon Court of Appeals ruling that prevents lenders from foreclosingthrough a nonjudicial process unless they can show mortgage records were properly recorded, has had a chilling effect on the system.

Lenders virtually ignored the mediation r equirement; the law had no provision to enforce it. They've also nearly abandoned th e n o njudicial foreclosure process and instead have taken their cases to state courts. Senate Bill 1552 does not require mediation in judicial foreclosures.

The move to the courts has added work to a judicial system already stretched thin by reduced state funding and employee furloughs. It's also slowed the movement of foreclosed properties through the system, which, in turn, slows recovery in t h e r eal estate market.

For the upcoming session, both lenders and consumer advocates are gearing up to push legislation they believe will improve the situation.

Democratic law m a kers, w ho have control o f b o t h chambers of the Legislature, are advocating for an expansion of t h e m e diation law and favor adding an enforcement mechanism to ensure banks are at the table with homeowners.

Two waystoaforeclosure inOregon When homeowners stop making payments and their loans go into default, lenders generally have two ways in Oregon to fore-

close on the property: judicial and nonjudicial.

In thejudicial process, the lender files a legal action in the state circuit court to authorize a sheriff's sale of the house. Then a

judge decides if the lender maysell the property.

Thenonjudicial process,also known as foreclosure by advertisement and sale, occurs in cases in which the document securing the loan is adeedof trust. Parties in a deedof trust are the beneficiary, the lender; the trustee, a neutral third party that holds title to the house in trust until the loan is paid off; and the grantor,

or borrower.

If the homeowner stops making payments, the lender tells the trustee to accelerate the loan and file anotice of default in the

county where the house is located. Thenotice, filed with county clerks, makes theforeclosure public and means the homecan be sold or transferred in about120 to 180 days.

However, the law requires that anyassignments of the trust deed by the trustee or beneficiary must be recorded in the county where the property is located.

From previous page So far, out of the thousands of homeowners each month who were eligible for the program, only four cases have been mediated under the new legislation.

"I think we're all surprised by the reaction of the lenders not willing to participate," she said. "I think the banks have chosen to go the judicial route not because of our (mediation) program but because of the ruling on MERS." The Appeals Court r uled t hat lenders must b e a b l e to document a clear trail of transactions in county clerks' offices before foreclosing nonjudicially.

K evin C h r i stiansen, t h e government affairs director with the Oregon Bankers Association, said it is the combination, the mediation law and court ruling, that have added so much uncertainty for lenders.

Po ice:Boy,7,shot to death at gunstore in apparent accident The Associated Press MERCER, Pa. — A man's handgun went off while he was holding it as he got into his truck in the parking lot of a western Pennsylvania gun store Saturday, and the shot killed his 7-year-old son, authorities said.

Joseph V. Loughrey, 44, of Sharpsville, was getting into the truck when the 9 mm handgun discharged, wounding Craig Allen Loughrey in the chest, according to state police.

The boy died at the scene at Twigs Reloading Den in East Lackawannock Township, 60

quicker, he said.

He's in the process of working with lenders on drafting legislation that he hopes lawmakers will adopt. It would likely allow lenders to foreclose without having every loan sale documented in public records.

"There is arguably a cloud over 70 to80 percent of the houses beingforeclosed on in the state, because of the lack of clarity," he said. "We would say this i s s omething that needs to be fixed."

However, the more onerous the system, he said, the longer it will take the housing market to recover.

"There are strong disincentives (right now) to enter this particular realm of lending," he said.

Last session, Rep. Gene Whisnant, R-Sunriver, initially pushed to allow lenders and MERS to f oreclose without every transaction being documented in a county clerk's office. This session, he said, he's not sure if he would support something similar. He wants h omeowners to k no w w h o owns their loans, and said MERS should be addressed.

"The big picture is, we need to get the foreclosures off the books so the system can move forward," he said.

But, he pointed out, Republicans will be in the minority.

"We're n ot carrying t h e ball; we'll be watching the ball game," he said. "But I'm willing to support something that helps homeowners and alleviates the system without the judicial overload."

Lenders maintain it's in the best interest of the Legislature to take another look at the issue. States with a higher rate of judicial foreclosures, potentially slow down the housing r ecovery, according to T h e Wall Street Journal.

"Judicial review may give troubled homeowners more time to work out problems, but critics of the system say the delays are postponing states' housing recoveries," according to the Nov. 15 article.

Senate M ajority L e a der Diane Rosenbaum, D-Portland, said she won't support a "MERS bailout."

Instead, she will push to r equire mediation i n b o t h judicial and nonjudicial foreclosures. The legislation to expand SB 1 552 i s b e i ng drafted.

"Clearly we need something with teeth that will bring people to the table, and that's the principle of the mediation program," she said.

What the mechanism would be, she wasn't sure.

Sen. Lee Beyer, D-Springfield, who co-sponsored the original Senate bill, said he's working with Sen. Brian Boquist, R-Dallas, and with the state's top judge, to ensure mediation would be required no matter the route lenders took to foreclose.

David Heynderickx, an attorney with the Office of Legislative Counsel, said the Legislature can impose mediation under current statute on the courts and has done so in the past.

The problem, the state senators said, is that lenders aren't participating.

Opponents of a roundabout at the intersection of Reed Market Road and Southeast 15th Street are circulating a petition in the hope of persuading the city to rethink its plans.

Tom Healy, owner of the Expressway gas station and convenience store at the intersection's northwest corner, said he began col-

lecting signatures opposing the roundabout about three weeks ago. He said around 500 have signed on, though the total could be higher as some peoplehave taken blank copies of his petition and gone door-to-door in the neighborhood to gather signatures.

Healy maintains the roundabout will do nothing to address the bigger problem that snarls traffic on Reed Market Road, the railroad crossing located about a quarter mile west of the intersection with 15th. Multiple times a day, Healy said, trains will block traffic for up to 20 minutes as they slowly move from track to track in the switching yard south of Reed Market Road.

The proximity of the rail crossing makes the intersection of Reed Market Road and 15th Street different than other locations where the city has installed roundabouts, Healy said. He suspects vehicles will clog the roundabout whenever a train is parked across Reed

Market Road, backing up traffic in all directions and giving drivers no opportunity to choose an alternate route around the train.

"I'm all for roundabouts, I really like them," Healy said.

"This just happens to be the wrong place to put one."

$30 million bond With a total bill estimated at $18.3 million, the Reed Market Road improvements are the largest project funded under a $30 million bond approved by Bend voters in May 2011. Beyond the roundabout, the project includes realignment of the American Lane bridge over the canal, a signaled intersection where American Lane meets Reed

Market Road and widening of Reed Market Road to three lanes between Third and 27th streets, including sidewalks and bike lanes along its entire length.

Construction east of the intersection of Reed Market Road and 15th Street is set to start next spring, with work on the bridge beginning late next year and construction of the western portion — including the proposed roundabout — in early 2014.

Nick Arnis, the city transportation engineering manager,said Healy raises some good points, as no traffic studies look specifically at how a roundabout performs when located near a rail crossing.

By the time Heather Davenport and Katie Slough realized what had happened, it was too late.

Under the gaze of hundreds in the Mountain view High School gym Saturday, the girls watched their Lego robot scoot across a pooltable sized platform before abruptly veering off course.

Their puzzlement turned to horror as the robot plowed through the course, scattering tiny plastic bricks in its wake and bumping into the walL Still, minutes later, Heather and Katie and the rest of their team, "Girls on Fire," were laughing at their misfortune Roughly 160 kids from 9 to 14 years old participated in this year's Lego Robotics Tournament, which drew 21 teams from around Central

d IZ

Heather Davenport, left, and Katle Slough reactwhen they realize their robot has gone off course.

Oregon.Tournament director Lance Kansari said six of the teams will be selected to move on to the next level, a statewide tournament in Portland early next year.

Kansari said the teams had been practicing since

September, when the governing body that oversees Lego robotics events unveiled the course for this year's competitions.

With a theme of "Senior Solutions," the course was designed to approximate tasks

that can be difficult for senior citizens with limited mobility.

The Lego robots, built and programmed by the kids, navigate on wheels around obstaclesand use mechanical arms to push and lift items in simulated missions like "turn stove burners off" or "fix a chair."

At the heart of each Lego robotisa computer processor, slightly larger than a mobile phone. With the robot connected to a laptop computer, the team members load instructions onto the processor, telling the robot where to go and what to do.

The unscheduled rampage by the Girls on Fire robot was determined to be human error, the result of sending the robot out to perform the "gardening" mission when it should have been set to "move a quilt."

Deschutes County

bond sale a success Bulletin staff report The sale of $12.6 million in general obligation bonds

by Deschutes County on Thursday came off better than anticipated, thanks to eager buyers and low interest rates.

Twelve banks or investment firms bid on the bond issue. Low bidder Morgan Stanley & Co. was awarded the sale, said Kieu-Oanh Nguyen, of Western Financial Group, the county investment advisor. Morgan Stanley bid.567 percent interest, 33 points lower than the highest bidder, U.S. Bancorp Investments Inc. The bidding was accomplished online, said county Finance Director and Treasurer Marty Wynne.

The county figured on selling this issue at 1.18 percent interest, that is, it counted on paying 1.18 percent interest on money it borrowed by selling bonds, which it pays back with taxes it collects from property owners.

But, the true interest cost — the rate paid Morgan Stanley plus other fees and costs, such as printing, bound counsel and rating feesand state fees— comes to.82 percent, still lower than estimated.

That means the county saves $1.09 million in costs to service its debt on a 2002 bond issue. The sale Thursday represents a refinancing of that debt at a lower interest rate. Wynne said he originally expected a savings of $990,000.

While taxpayers save overall, individuals won't see much of a dent in their tax bills, he said. The actual amount will change each year of the bond life, he said.

"Not a huge amount," he said.

The bond sale is actually a second refinancing of bond measures approved

by Deschutes County voters in the 1990s, Wynne said. One, at $25.434 million, paid for construction of the Deschutes County Fairgrounds in Redmond.

These general obligation bonds are considered very secure — the county en-

joys a high, Aa2 rating by Moody's — and in high demand, even in an economy in which local and state governments are reducing services and cutting costs.

"These bonds are not affected," Wynne said.

"When voters approved these ballot measures a few years back, they agreed to

pay.

In other words, the bonds are backed by county government's power to collect property taxes.

Deschutes, Nguyen said, also enjoys a high credit rating because it's fairly well managed.

The first payment comes due in six months; the bonds mature in four years.

Miller and A.O. Hunter go East to Chicago Kempster B. Miller, general manager ofthe Bend Water,

Light & Power Co. and A.O. Hunter left this morning for

Chicago.

Mr. Hunter, who came in with Mr. Miller last week, expects to be in Ohio for several months. To him is due the credit of interesting Mr. Miller and his associates in their recent purchase of the local power, water and lighting plants and appurtenant power properties, he having spent the last six months working

YESTERDAY on the proposition. While he has nothing to say just now, it is understood that the purpose of his eastern visit concerns another deal of importance to the town.

"I am glad to say this, however," stated Mr. Hunter, in discussing general conditions, "Bend never looked better to me. The outlook all over the country is excellent. Prosper-

ity is sure. Locally, affairs are in splendid shape. Another very important group of men has been added to the already powerful backing of the town, and all interests are pulling together splendidly. It is my firm belief that the next ten months will see some remarkable developments in Bend."

Before leaving, Mr. Miller stated that the machinery has been ordered for the larger power plant that is to be in-

stalled in the new building as soon as it is completed.

As stated last week, the initial cost of the poser plant unit that is to be installed immediately is $40,000, this in addition to the plant already operating.

During the week a boom has been placed at the lower end of the pond above the dam to keep floating ice from getting into the flume and damaging the water wheels.

Roundabout Continued from B1 The city has recently set up some cameras to learn how traffic behaves when a train is stopped across the road with the existing traffic light, he said, and is considering a twolane roundabout that would provide drivers better opportunities to exit the roundabout when a train is crossing, as well as electronic signs that would notify drivers of crossing trains as they approach the roundabout.

Outside of peak traffic periods orother rare circumstances — such as a train across the road — roundabouts are more efficient a t m o v in g t r a f fic through an intersection, Arnis said, while reducing the risk of a severe injury crash by 80 to 90 percent.

Arnis said that while the railroad crossing is a major problem along the Reed Market Road corridor, solutions

are prohibitively expensive.

An overpass or an underpass would cost $13 m i llion-$15 m illion, he said, nearly as much as the city is preparing to spend on the entire twomile length of Reed Market Road.

Moving the switching yard out of town, another suggestion of Healy and other opponents, is also challenging, he sald.

"What (Burlington Northern Santa Fe has) told us is, 'That's fine, you find us a new place and you pay for it and we'll think about it," Arnis said.

Public process Peggy Barnett, the original owner of the Expressway and the owner of undevelopedproperty on the northeast side of the intersection, said she's concerned the roundabout could hurt the gas station's ability to stay in business.

Barnett said realigning the road, altering the station driveways and new medians on the approach to the roundabout could make it difficult for fuel trucks to supply the station. Additionally, the station's underground fuel tanks are located on theproperty corner closest

to the proposed roundabout; Barnett said traffic vibrations could create a leak.

"People can't get close to those and start driving, they'll shake them loose and who knows what will happen'?" she said.

Healy and Barnett both plan on bringing their concerns and the signatures they've collected to the City Council, but have not decided when they will do so.

Healy said he's had some discussions about the project with Councilor Mark Capell, talks which both men say have been productive.

"I think the public process has been fairly open — and, quite a bit of it — to give people an opportunity to make comments," Capell said. "I think Tom had some good concerns, and staff is now looking at options to see that those concerns aren't going to be a problem once the project is completed."

Continued from B1 Wednesday, the Senate failed to ratify a United Nations treaty that would ban discrimination against people with disabilities.

Needing a majority to be ratified, the matter failed, 61-38, with eight Republicans voting with

No fire risk in Bend timber Three timber fires in all of Crook County last season, with a total loss of about $75, is the remarkablerecord for the district, says Clyde McKay, deputy state fire warden.

"There you have the big reason why the Deschutes pine belt offers the safest timber investment in America," said Mr. McKay. "There is absolutely no danger of fire loss, incidentally, one can get anywhere in the timber quickly, by auto or rig, in case small fires start."

Mr. McKay, who is also vice president of The Bend Company, and local representative of the Mueller timber interests, is very optimistic concerning the local timber and lumber outlook.

75 YEARS AGO For the week ending Dec. 8, 1937

Bandits find Westerners too tough for train robbing Two bold young men from the east who outfitted themselves with six shooters, ten gallon hats and cowboy boots and tried to revive the obsolete business of robbing a train, were held today for a taste of western justice.

They p r obably w i l l be charged with homicidal robbery because they killed a railroad man in the scuffle after they had gone through one coach relieving 20 passengers of watches, rings and wallets.

Trainmen and passengers were ontop ofhim in an instant.

The other robber turned to see what caused the noise, and he was grabbed. His gun went off and the bullet killed W.L. Smith, who was en route west to see his sick wife. Smith was a Rock Island railway man but he had a trainman's aversion for robbers on any line, and he was one of the first men to go after the robber who turned his head.

PORTLAND — Now that marijuana is legal in neighboring W a s hington s t a te, Portland police are offering some helpful advice to Oregon pot users. Sure, you can go over to Washington state to "smoke some weed," a police advisory states, but you might get arrestedfor driving under the influence if you're pulled over coming home, even if you're on a bike.

If the federal government doesn't attempt to intervene in the new law, and if Washington state sets up a supply system whose mechanics are yet to be defined, Washington may well become a greater source of pot for users in Oregon and Idaho.

"It would be like a place

We're not talking about medical marijuana. We're talking about people who just want to get high," said Josh Marquis, district attorney for Oregon's Clatsop County.

The Associated Press PORTLAND — J a ilers near Portland say defendants in two of Oregon's highest-profile recent crime sprees carried on a clandestine relationship behind bars, devising a complex communication strategy fit for a spy novel.

Columbia County jail officials uncovered the relationship last month when they found a love note written by Andrew Barnett, accused of perpetrating a recent anthrax hoax that targeted a number of Portland law enforcement and commercial centers. The object of his affection was Holly Grigsby, charged in a three-state kill-

out of state. There has also been pressure on dispensaries that have sprung up in Oregon that provide medical marijuana fora fee to cover costs of operation. Law officials in some counties have raided such operations, saying they are selling pot for profit.

If Washington state sets up a pot supply system, it is likely some Oregon holders of medi-

ing spree.

Barnett's note was found hidden in a law book on a library shelf. Most of the fourpage letter was vulgar and sexually explicit, and it included a racist rant against the African American judge presiding over both their cases, Lt. Tony Weaver, a j ail supervisor, told T h e Oregonian.

Barnett devised a complex way to communicate that involved book bindings marked with stars and other symbols, dog-eared pages and a numeric code so Grigsby could find the book where he hid his letters, Weaver said. At least two other inmates also were using books in the library as dead-drops for secret communications. " They called i t th e i r 'email' system," W eaver sard.

Grigsby is awaiting trial on federal racketeering charges alleging that she and an accomplice, David "Joey" Pederson, killed four people last fall as part of a campaign to "purify" and "preserve" the white race.

Both have pleaded not guilty.

Barnett has a long history of challenging authorities from behind bars. He's accused of mailing a parcel in December 2011 with a mysterious white powder toa federalprosecutor, which the government alleges was an attempt to convey that it was anthrax and that a biological attack was occurring. After the first letter sent to the prosecutor, a slew of similar parcels showed up at six other Portland buildings, including the Port of Portland's office at the airport.

The letters were all determined to b e n ontoxic. He's pleaded not guilty.

Barnett got permission to use thelibrary so he could prepare to defend himself against his federal charges. Inside the library, he found a ventilation shaft that connected to the women's housing unit in the next room.

FEATURED OBITUARY

Weege was creator of TV's 'Night Court'

By Rebecca Trouuson Los Angeles Times

Reinhold Weege, who created the popular Emmy-winning sitcom "Night Court" about a n ofte n -anarchic, after-hours New York courtroom and its cast of memorably loony characters, has died.

He was 62.

Weege, who also wrote and co-produced the television series "Barney Miller," died Dec. I of natural causes at his home in La Jolla, Calif., said Bonnie Covelli, his former assistant.

"Night Court," which aired on NBC from 1984 to 1992, starred a boyish Harry An derson as th e u n orthodox, fun-loving judge Harry Stone and John Larroquette as lecherous prosecuting attorney Dan Fielding.

Beneath the carnival-like atmosphere of Stone's courtroom, the show pushed the envelope for network television at the time, with occasionally edgy story lines and characters seemingly drawn f r om the streets of New York City.

Weege said the show was grounded in r e ality, insisting that he had seen actual courtrooms that were more bizarre.

But "Night Court" was bestknown for its humor and assortment of lovable oddballs, including its j eans-wearing, Mel Torme-obsessed judge; its towering, dimwitted bailiff; and a character known as "Phil th e d erelict," who became t h e p ro s ecutor's personal lackey. Pimps and prostitutes also made regular appearances, and Weege later disclosed that he had named most of them after his friends.

The series, which began as a midseason replacement, was among the most popular television shows of its era, part of a powerhouse Thursday-night lineup for NBC that included "The Cosby Show," "Family Ties" and "Cheers." It won seven Emmys, including an unprecedented four consecutive supporting comedy actor awards for Larroquette.

"We do great jokes," Larroquette said of "Night Court" in a 1988 Los Angeles Times interview. "The show may not be in any way intellectual and we don't make any pretense of dealing with issues that are impossible to address or solve in the sitcom format ... But if you just want to forget it all for a minute and laugh at pies in the face and pants around the ankles, that's what we do very well."

W eege r e c eived t hr e e Emmy nominations for "Night Court" and one for "Barney Miller," the long-running ABC sitcom starring Hal Linden.

SmugglingrisesonWest Coast Senator seeks 15 million asroutesonlan are locke for tsunami debris deanup

By Becky Bohrer New York Times News Service

L OS ANGELES — T h e small, open-hull fishing boats head north from Baja Mexico, traveling at night, their navigation lights off. It is an

old smuggling route, popular with tequila runners during Prohibition in the 1920s and then little used for nearly a century.

But as a result of a security crackdown along the border with Mexico, the waters off S outhern C a l i fornia h a v e a gain been t e eming w i t h s mugglers in t h e l a s t f e w years, as drug cartels seek new avenues to move illicit cargo into the United States.

As the government devot-

ed more resources to curbing smuggling, however, the Sinaloa drug cartel, which officials say controls smuggling corridors on both land and sea, has adapted.

Coast Guard surveillance aircraft have detected smuggling vessels up to 100 miles offshore, Schultz said, and in the last two years, smugglers have been arrested along remote stretches of beach on California's Central C o ast, more than 300 miles north of the border.

To make these longer journeys, smugglers have moved from cheap 20-foot fishing vessels to boats that are often twice that size and sometimes equipped with multiple

engines.

H elicopters a n d pl a n e s watch from the air — it was a Coast Guard aircraft that spotted the smugglers before the deadly e ncounter l a st Sunday — while ships pursue smugglers farther and farther offshore. And the authorities have convened a series of task forces, bringing together local, state and federal agencies to fight maritime smug-

which were recovered earlier this month in Hawaii.

The Japanese government estimated that 1. 5 m i l lion tons of debris were floating in the ocean in the immediate aftermath of the tsunami, but it's not clear how much is still floating nearly two years on or just what will reach U.S. shores, when.

NOAA estimates the bulk of what is coming either has arrived or will in the next year or so — but that's a rough guess.

The Japanese government last month predicted the most buoyant debris, such as buoys that littered some A l aska beaches earlier this year, has already arrived. Lumber from houses and boats is expected to begin reaching the West Coast around this month, and mostly submerged debris, like driftwood or waterlogged lumber, is expected around June next year.

In Oregon, after a fairly normal year for debris — save for the massive dock that washed ashore from Japan — a recent storm brought foam and other rubbish onto isolated sections of shoreline, said Chris Havel, spokesman for the state's Department of Parks and Recreation. State response teams were also recently activated to dispose of a gas can that washed up.

Havel shares Pallister's concerns about the environmental impact of debris as it breaks up. Unlike in Alaska, where beachesare often remote and treacherous during the fall and winter,beaches in Oregon are

largelyaccessible year-round, and Havel was placing orders earlier this week for another 10,000 bags that will be used in cleanup. He placed his last order in July, but anticipates needing more as the winter wears on.

Reduced snowfall from warming harms winter sports industry

By Peter FImrlte San Francisco Chronicle

Snow and ski industry dollars have been vanishing at an alarming pace around the country as winter temperatures have risen, but California's Sierra Nevada has yet to feel the full effect of what researchers said this week is an impending global disaster.

The ski and snow sports industries in 38 states have lost 27,000 jobs and as much as $1 billion in revenue over the past decade aloneas a result of reduced snowfall and shorter winters, according to a study commissioned by the environmental advocacy groups Protect Our Winters and the NaturalResources Defense Council.

"We need to protect one of America's greatest assets — a

stable climate," the report, titled "Climate Impacts on the Winter Tourism Economy in the United States," concluded. "Without it, a vibrant winter sports industry, the economies of mountain communities everywhere, and the valued lifestyle of winter will be gone, not just for us, bttt for our children."

But while the rate of warming has tripled in the rest of the United States since 1970, California has partly sidestepped Mother Nature'stemperature tantrum, the report and previous scientific studies revealed.

The study's temperature charts show that the mountainous regions of California, including the Lake Tahoe region, were the only places in the country where wintertime temperatures remained stable

Well-known wolf slain outside ofYellowstone New York Times News Service Yellowstone National Park's best-known w o l f , b e l oved by many tourists and valued by scientists who tracked its movements, was killed Thursday outside the park's boundaries, Wyoming wildlife officials reported.

The wolf, known as 832F to researchers, was the alpha female of the park's highly visible Lamar Canyon pack and had become so well known that some w i l d life w a tchers referred to her as a "rock star." The animal had been a tourist favorite for most of the past six years.

The wolf was fitted with a $4,000 collar with GPS track-

ing technology, which is being returned, said Daniel Stahler, a project director for Yellowstone's wolf program. Based on data from the wolf's collar, researchers knew that her pack rarelyventured outside the park, and then only for brief periods, Stahler said.

This year's hunting season in the northern Rockies has been especially controversial because of the high numbers

of popular wolves and wolves fitted with r esearch collars that have been k i l led j u st outside Yellowstone in Idaho, Montana and Wyoming.

Wolf hunts, sanctioned by recent federal and state rules applying t o t h e no r t h ern Rockies, have been fiercely debated in the r egion. The wolf p o p ulation h a s r ebounded since they were reintroduced in the mid-1990s to counter their extirpation a few years earlier.

Many ranchers and hunters say the wolf hunts are a reasonable way to reduce attacks on livestock and protect big game populations.

This fall, the first wolf hunts in decades were authorized in Wyoming. The wolf killed last week was the eighth collared by researchers that was shot this year after leaving the park's boundary.

The deaths have dismayed scientists who track wolves to study their habits, population spread and threats to their survival. Still, some found 832F's death to be particularly disheartening.

The winter tourism study, conducted by two University of New Hampshire researchers, went a step further, projecting that winter temperatures will

be 4 to 10 degrees higher by the end of the century, causing SnOW depthS tO deCline n25 to 100 percent in the Western United States."

As a result, thousands of jobs could be lost at ski resorts, which would impact local businesses, including restaurants, hotels, grocery stores, gas stations, winter snowmobile and sports equipment rental, and retail outlets. That could mean billions of dollars in lost revenue and tax dollars.

age temperatureof58.5 degrees to 59.5 degrees since 1895, he said. Consequently, the snowpack in the northern part of the Sierra has been shrinking. So too has the amount of annual snow overthree-quarters ofthe Western United States, an area that includes Montana, Wyoming and New Mexico, he said.

"In general across the U.S. we see m or e p r ecipitation across the northern tier states and less precipitation in the southwestover the past 50 or 100 years," Field said, nbut the warming trend year round is clear across the whole U.S. over that time."

What that means, he said, is that the Sierra snowpack is likely to shrink over the next 30 years, largely as a result of climate change. Projections have

Springsteen biographer to speak inBend—possibly with special guest Ifyou go What:"Bruce" author Peter Ames Carlin

(Come Out Tonight)"?

Let's play a game.

When "Bruce" — as in B r uce Springsteen — biographer Peter Ames Carlin visits Bend on Thursday as part o f D eschutes Public Library's "Know Heroes" series, he may (note: may) have with him one of the real-life inspirations behind a Springsteen song.

Is it A) the Johnny of "Johnny 99," B) the Sherry from "Sherry Darling"

Carlin revealed the answer toward the end of a fascinating phone interview about Springsteen last week. Through his earnest reporting, Carlin, a Portland-based writer who'd already written biographies on Brian Wilson and Paul McCartney, earned himselfunprecedented access to Springsteen.

When he set out to begin work on the book in the fall of 2009, Carlin

had no connection to Springsteen or his camp.

Fellow music writer Dave Marsh advised him to "put in your request with his spokesperson, and they're going to say 'No,' but when they do, just go ahead and write the book you want to write. Eventually, they'll deal with you or they won't, but you'll still end up with the book that you wanted to write," Carlin recalls Marsh

saying.

"The Amazing Race" 8 tonight, CBS All that panting and gasp-

"All About Christmas Eve" 9 tonight, Lifetime Call off the search party.

"American Idol" finalists (and

real-life couple) Ace Young and Diana DeGarmo have been located.

They make cameo appearances as themselves in the new film "All A bout Christmas Eve."

"American Country Awards"

t i m e for the vet-

Chris Christie, "Fifty Shades of Grey" author E L James, Olympic gymnast Gabby Douglas, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, actorproducer-director Ben Affleck, "Family Guy" mastermind S eth MacFarlane, and t h e wildly popular boy band One Direction.

ADVICE & ASTROLOGY

Womanreadyto sayyes to a 4-year-oldproposal Dear Abby: I'm a 24-yearold woman and have been in a committed relationship with "Max" for six years. He

4'-

DEP,R ABBY

proposedfour years ago and I told him I wanted to marry him, except I wasn't ready at that time.

The years have gone by, and we have flourished as a couple. Most people would swear that we're already married.

However, I have been worrying lately that I m i ght have blown my chance for another proposal. Max doesn't mention marriage anymore except if I initiate conversation with a related topic. Some of our mutual friends are now engaged and Max has made no comment on the future of OUR relationship. He seems content in our current state.

I feel silly for wanting to be proposed to again, but it is important to me. I don't want to be pushy and force Max into it.

Should Italk to him about it or wait it out and see?

— Hopeful Future Bride in Nevada

Dear Hopeful: Max is n o t a mind reader. The squeaky wheel gets the grease, so if you want a second proposal, squeak up and tell him s o .

Because you put him off before, he may think you are still no t r e a dy f o r f u r t h er commitment.

Dear Abby: I can't believe I'm actually writing to you, but I need an answer to this question. What is the time limit

I went into a total meltdown.

Life just st o pped f o r m e .

Would it b e a p propriate to "come clean" and tell everyone that I was grossly overwhelmed (an understatement) with my grieving, or should I just send a short acknowledgment, thanking them for the time they took to attend my mother's memorial?

— Wondering in West Virginia

Dear Wonderlng:Grief is an individual process. N o t w o people grieve exactly alike, and most of us u nderstand that. It is never too late to say thank you, and if you include an explanation with your ack nowledgment, it w ould b e appreciated.

Dear Abby:I am sending out our annual Christmas cards.

I do not want to include my husband's name on them this year. We haven't spoken to each other in two years. We still occupy the same house — but thank God it's large so we don't have to seeeach other often. We have a son away at college. Please tell me it is OK. — Married and Not, Albany, N.Y.

Dear Married and Not:If you follow your impulse and omit your husband's name from the cards, it will be like announcing that he is dead or that you for acknowledging someone's have separated. While I symattendance at a me m o rial pathize with you, do not omit service? his name unless you are preMy mother passed away pared toanswer the questions nine months ago.

Continued from C1 But the unqualified highlight is Rainforests. Temperature- and humidity-controlled to emulate tropical climates of Borneo, Madagascar, Costa Rica and the Amazon jungle, it is home to 250 free-flying birds and butterflies, nearly 1 00 reptiles and amphibians, and hundreds of flowering plants, including 30 species of orchids and other bromeliads.

An elevator raises visitors to the top of the dome, from where a spiraling ramp leads them downward through the various levels of rainforest canopy.

And at the foot of the dome, an acrylic tunnel passes through a 100,000-gallon "Flooded Forest" tank inhabited by tropical freshwater fish — and exits into the aquarium.

They had reached a p oint in their lives where some of those voiceswere beginning to disappear."

Voices l ik e a c c ordionist Danny Federici, who died in 2008 and saxophonist Clarence Clemons, who died this year. Carlin believes he was the last person to do a major interview with Clemons, in March.

He and Springsteen would become familiar enough to text one another, but what one has to know is this: What is Springsteen like in person?

"He's very warm. He's very conscious of who he is, and conscious of how that could rattle people. So he goes out of his way t o e xtend himself and to be, really, a good guy,n he says. "He's very conscientious."

No subjects were off limits, though occasionally Springsteen would attempt to steer the conversation, and journalist Carlin would attempt to steer back: "We'd have one of those writer-subject duels,"

he says.

But by that point, Carlin says, he had enough information he could tell Springsteen, "'Well, look, that's not what your mom told me,'and he'd be like, 'Whut'? My mom'?'"

'Rosalita,' come out Thursday night Carlin does an ace Springsteen impersonation, for the r ecord. That's all w ell a n d good, you're thinking, but please tell me who the heck Carlin may have with him on Thursday.

"Believe it or not, Rosalita might actually show up,n says Carlin. «I'm not even kidding about that. Put t hat t h ere: The rea/ Rosalita may well be there. She lives in Bend."

Wait. The Rosalita?

"That's not quite her name," he says.

Bonato and I sipped coffee amid the gardens blooming with f r angipanis, gardenias and lime t rees behind t he couple's Valladolid perfumery.

Their various projects on the Yucatan began, she said, when Malleville fell in love with Tulum and bought his "little piece of sand"there in 2002,the year before the couple met. Around that time, he began researching perfume formulas developed by Franciscan monks who colonized the Yucatan in the 16th century; he attempted to blend those formulas with ingredients prized in ancient Mayan medicine, the fruits of which led to the founding of Coqui Coqui perfumes.

In 2005, Hurricane Katrina destroyed much of their property at Tulum (which has since been restored) and the couple moved to Valladolid, where they turned a run-down old colonial house on the Calzada

S omewhere between t h e grilled watermelon with panela cheese and my second taco de cochinita — a Yucatecan taco stuffed with pork, black beans and pickled onions — I put down my fork. I couldn't eat another bite.

"Maybe you didn't notice how heavy the food is here?" said my friend Guillaume Guevara. We were sitting in the Taberna de los Frailes in Valladolid, a colonial city of Spanish arcades and 16th-century spires on the Yucatan Peninsula. Guillaume was right: The food was filling. The two days I spent there in March were punctuated with rich, sleep-inducing meals: deep-fried tortillas, cream-based soups and enough beans, pork and nopal cactus to keep me teetering on the edge of a constant food coma.

A few days earlier, we had celebrated Guillaume's wedding in the eco-chic beach resort town of Tulum, an hour's drive to the southeast; several of us in the wedding party had come to Valladolid to recover from 72 hours of tireless partying. The city, often overlooked by travelers making a beeline to the Yucatan's flashier hot spots, provided just the right antidote to the f ashion-conscious whirlwind i n T u lum.

Francesca Bonato, seated center,owner of leather-goods store Hacienda Montaecristo, is among those attracting friends and well-heeled creative types to Valladolid.

Founded by invading Spaniards in 1543, Valladolid has an Iberian feel with its colonnades, pastel stucco and paving-stone streets. The central cathedral, a fortress of ascetic Franciscan architecture, is standing room only on Sunday evenings. As in Spain, shops are often shuttered each afternoon for siesta.

"This is a nice place because you can have everything without all the noise," said Alejandra Rivero Flores, who works at her family's business, Tequileria Poncho Villa, a little liquor store that I s tumbled upon on bustling Calle 41 (No. 216), drawn in by the life-size, colorfully dressed skeleton doll propped out front.

It's possible to spend the equivalent of a few dollars for a filling meal, as I discovered at the coveredmarket on the centralsquare's northeast corner.

I loved the panuchos — deepfried b ean-stuffed t o rtillas.

And if you're hankering for pizza, try the Casa Italia, a pizzeria on the Parque de La Candelaria, a park anchored by the Iglesia de Candelaria, with its high arches in the Moorish style and bright, salmon-colored stucco.

The architecture, the quiet evenings spent strolling down narrow streets, and the endless rounds of feasting are among the charms that led my friend Guillaume and his wife, Olivia Villanti, who live in Brooklyn, to bring their wedding party to Valladolid after Tulum. "In Valladolid, you're in the middle of the city and you can take a walk down the street and you'll end up somewhere beautiful," Olivia said.

de los Frailes into the gorgeous new perfumery, showroom, spa and guest suite. Bonato also is an owner of Hacienda Montaecristo, a line of accessories featuring hand-stitched leather wares made locally and sold in a rustic showroom a few doors down.

For fine Yucatecan food in the peaceful garden setting of a hacienda courtyard, there's nowhere better than Taberna de los Frailes, across the street from the monastery. Try the pook chuuk — grilled pork fillets marinated in Mayan white spices and sour orange, or the tikin xic, snapper grilled in annatto sauce. At Las Campanas on the square, I was treated to traditional songs accompanied by two marimbas as I feasted on queso relleno, a chunk of hard aged cheese stuffed with pork, swimming in a w h i te cream-based soup.After that meal, my ambitions for the next few hours were thwarted.

In an unusually top-heavy and familiar season — it is possible that only two of the 12 playoff teams will be different from last season — you have plenty of company. Three divisions have been settled and two more could be this weekend, but the playoff picture is still spectacularly scintillating. Colts-Broncos in the Peyton Bowl? Sign

NEW YORK — Johnny Football just got himself a way cooler nickname: Johnny Heisman.

Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manzielbecame the first freshman to win the Heisman Trophy, taking college football's top individual prize Saturday night after a recordbreaking debut.

Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o finished a distant second and Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein was third in the voting. In a Heisman race with two nontraditional candidates, Manziel broke through the class barrier and kept Te'o from becoming the first purely defensive player to win the award.

Manziel drew 474 first-place votes and 2,029 points from the panel of media members and former winners.

"I have been dreaming about this since I was a kid, running around the backyard pretending I was Doug Flutie, throwing Hail Marys to my dad," he said after hugging his parents and kid sister.

sive style of play from Cascade, an i n-your-face tactic that " t ook t h e wind out of our sails," according to Redmond coach Angela Capps.

The Cougars' h i gh-octane approach was especially effective in the second quarter as 4A Cascade outscored the 5A Panthers 22-7 in that period en route to a 71-42 nonconference girls basketball win on Saturday afternoon.

"Going in, we knew they were going to be a really good team, and they were going to be in our face," said Capps, whose team dropped to 2-2 overall. "That second quarter was huge for us. If we hit some of those shots, the game wouldn't have gotten away from us like it did."

Senior Kendall Current finished with eight points and six rebounds to lead the Panthers. Brittny Benson added eight points and four rebounds, but that second quarter put Redmond in a 19-point halftime deficit, one the

Panthers could not overcome.

Redmond, which played its third game in four days on Saturday, shot 14 of 30 from the field and one of seven from three-point range, but Capps said that "it felt like it was worse than that."

"You can think of a ton of excuses," Capps said. "You're tired, you're flat, but the reality is, if you want to be a state-tournament team, you have to win three or four in a row. It's just taking it one day at a time."

Cascade (3-0), which won the 4A state title two seasons ago, saw four

players scorein doublefigures,paced

by Alejandra Marquez's 13 points.

Austyn Lowder recorded 11 points, and Ali x B i d dington an d S a die Trump posted 10 points apiece for the Cougars from Turner. " Our girls u nderstand that w e have 100 percent faith in them," said Capps, whose team visits Ridgeview High on Wednesday. "We're going to figure it out and put everything together. It's just a matter of getting on the same page."

Bulletin staff report LAS VEGAS — Redmond's Steven Peebles and Terrebonne's Russell Cardoza led the Central Oregon contingent at the National Finals Rodeo by placing in the money on Saturday night at Thomas 8t Mack Center.

Peebles took sixth in the third go-round of bareback riding with a ride of 81 points, earning him $2,944.71. It was Peebles' first check of the 10night NFR.

NBA ROUNDUP

azers a a The Associated Press PORTLAND — The Sacramento Kings jumped over two hurdles in their win at Portland on Saturday night.

DeMarcus Cousins had 19 points and 12 rebounds, John Salmons added 1 9 p o i n ts and 11 assists, and the Kings earned their first road w i n and first three-game winning streak ofthe season by beating the Trail Blazers 99-80.

"It feels good," Salmons said. "Especially coming off two home wins, to go on the road and get that third win.

Hopefully, we can continue doing that."

Aaron Brooks had 14 points for the Kings, who had lost their first six away from Sleep Train Arena. Francisco Garcia and Jason Thompson added 12 each. All five starters finished in double figures as the Kings overcame a dismal second quarter and steadily pulled away, outscoring Portland by 19 points in the second half.

LaMarcus Aldridge had 17 points and 10 rebounds and J.J. Hickson added 14 points and 15 rebounds for the Trail Blazers. Wesley M a t thews scored 14points, but suffered

a hip injury.

Matthews went to the locker room in the third quarter with what was called a left hip contusion. He returned but fell to the floor in the fourth and left the game limping. He said after the game he heard his hip flexor muscle pop when he went down and was in significant pain.

Nicolas Batum played for Portland despite dealing with a back strain, but he appeared to be in pain while scoring five points in 17 largely ineffective minutes.

Those injuries may leave the Blazers short-handed as they play the remainder of a fivegame homestand. Portland may be forced to recall guard Will Barton and forward Victor Claver from the D-League's Idaho Stampede, where they had been sent on Friday.

Portland was back after a seven-game road trip against Eastern Conference teams.

The Blazers went 2-5 on the trip, winning at Charlotte and Cleveland, both in ovettime.

They lost 99-92 at Indiana on Wednesday.

"This was definitely a tough night for us," said Aldridge, who was five of 14 from the floor. "We started off kind of

sluggish, especially myself. I just felt like it was one of those nights where I couldn't find

my legs."

The Kings were playing on a back-to-back after a 91-82 win Friday over Orlando and were kicking off a four-game road

Portland Trail Blazers forward LaMarcus Aldridge, left, points to other players as Sacramento Kings forward Jason Thompson defends during Saturday night's game in Portland. trip. The 0-6 start to the season was Sacramento's worst road start since going 0-9 on the road to begin the 2007-08 season.

Sacramento dominated despite missing Tyreke Evans, itssecond-leading scorer and leader in assists, for the fourth time in five games with a sore knee. Salmons was three for four on 3-pointers and helped l ead Sacramento's ru n b y making two of the Kings' four 3s to start the second half. Four minutes into the third quarter the Kings were up 10 and Portland never challenged as Batum and Matthews left the

game for good.

"They came in an d t h ey were ready to play," said Portland guard Damian Lillard, who had 12 points. "We didn't have a lot of energy and they just outplayed us and beat us.n The Kings led by 12 in the first quarter as Portland committed nine t urnovers. The tables turned in the second quarter. The Kings scored just 13 points and went through a stretch where they missed 14 of 15 field-goal attempts, allowing the Blazers to pull to 39-38. Thompson's layup broke thedry spellfor Sacramento, which led 43-41 at the break.

Former Blazer Travis Outlaw had 11 points for the Kings, all in the second half. Outlaw was averaging just 3.8 points entering the game, but was a key contributor as coach Keith Smart looked down his bench seeking a spark at halftime.

"I was just excited for the o pportunity," O u tlaw s a i d .

"To get to go out there, showcase, do what I can and hope-

fully I can buy myself more minutes."

Lost in New York

The Associated Press

Look at Sanchez and Vick. Both have regressed the past two years.

Sanchez led the Jets to consecutive AFC championship games in his first two seasons. But he struggled down the stretch last year and the Jets flirted with Peyton Manning in the offseason.

Fans in New York have been calling for Sanchez to be benched ever since the Jets acquired Tim Tebow from Denver.

Sanchez finally got pulled last week in a 7-6 win over Arizona, but it was for Greg McElroy with Tebow injured. Still, Jets coach Rex Ryan is going back to Sanchez this week.

"I believe Mark has a skillset that is pretty impressive," Ryan said. "He can make all the throws. The thing that Mark needs to do a better job of is protecting the ball and know when it's OK to take chances and know when you shouldn't.

I think that Mark is going to do a better job at that."

Sanchez gota three-year contract extension for $40.5 million in March. That deal calls for $20.5 million fully guaranteed, meaning the Jets are going to give him every opportunity to earn it as a starter this year and likely next.

"It's my job to play the way I know how," Sanchez said. "These last couple of weeks, and certain stretches of this season, I haven't. It kind of culminated there on Sunday and hopefully that's the end of it. I think it is. That's the way I'll approach this next one."

EAST LANSING, Mich.Gary Harrisscored 20 points

Michael Vick, Matt Cassel and Kevin Kolb signed contracts totaling $225 million. They have zero playoff wins to show for all those dollars, and no assurances they'll be starters in 2013.

Finding a franchise quarterback is a tough call in the NFL. The Eagles, Chiefs and Cardinals are just a few of the teams facing this problem. The Jetsaren't sure about Mark Sanchez, who was benched last week only to get another chance to play this

Jed Conklin/The Associated Press

Illinois' D.J. Richardson tries to break free of Gonzaga's Mike Hart (30) and David Stockton (11) in the first half of Saturdaynight's game in Spokane, Wash.

Carson Palmer's p r olific n u mbers haven't translated into wins in Oakland.

The Jaguars could be undecided about Blaine Gabbert, especially if Chad Henne plays well down the stretch.

It's no surprise these six teams are

struggling. The Eagles (3-9), Chiefs (210), Cardinals (4-8), Jets (5-7), Raiders (3-9) and Jaguars (2-10) are a combined 19-53 this season.

But the bottom clubs aren't the only ones with questions at quarterback. The NFC West-leading San Francisco 49ers (8-3-1) benched Alex Smith for Colin Kaepernick. Th e M i n nesota V i k ings (6-6) are concerned about Christian Ponder'srecent struggles. Even the Baltimore Ravens (9-3) might have to make a difficult decision about Joe Flacco because his contract expires after this season.

Of course, if the Ravens somehow let Flacco walk, there will be plenty of teams eager to land a legitimate No. I starter.

Trouble in K.C. In Kansas City, the Chiefs are in disarray at quarterback. Cassel has been benched despite his $63 million, six-year contract, and Brady Quinn is on his third team since being chosen by Cleveland in the first round in 2007. The only other quarterback on the roster is Ricky Stanzi, a fifth-round draft pick last year who has never thrown a pass in the league.

Cassel is due to earn $16.5 million over the next two years, so it's unlikely the Chiefs will pay him that much to hold a clipboard. Unless Quinn really impresses in the final month, they'll be looking in the draft or free agency for a long-term solution.

"I think anytime you have an opportunity to play more and get more experience, you're going to continue to grow and improve as a player," Quinn said.

Not always the case.

A Philly fumble The Eagles rewarded Vick with a $100 million contract in A ugust 2011 after his incredible comeback season in 2010.

However, only $35.5 million of that deal is guaranteed money and nearly all off it will be paid by the end of this year. Vick is due to make $15.5 million in 2013, but the Eagles can release him without taking a major salary-cap hit.

V ick's latest i njury, a concussion, forced him to miss the last three games, and gave rookieNick Foles an opportunity to play. The third-round pick struggled in his first two starts before a strong performance last week against Dallas in Philadelphia's eighth straight loss. Coach Andy Reid made him the starter for the rest of the season, so the Eagles will be trying to figure out if he's their No. I guy

going forward.

"He's a smart kid. He works hard.

He spends a lot of time in his job. He's done well up to this point," Reid said.

"You've got to keep going. As teams have an opportunity to study you and your strengths and weaknesses and present you with different looks according to what they see, you may be able to answer that. Again, it's a matter of just getting reps under his belt."

Whatever Foles lacks in physical skills, he makes up for in poise. Foles has the makeup for the job. Now he has to show it on the field.

"There are only 32 jobs, but you don't make it too big," he said. "You take it one day at a time. I just think of it that we have great guys in this locker room and it's a great team to be a part of with all the coaches and everyone who works here. We're all in it together. It's great to be a quarterback here ina great place like this."

Cardinal sins The situation in Arizona is tricky. The Cardinals traded a second-round pick and cornerback Dominique RodgersCromartie to the Eagles for Kolb. Then they gave him a $63.5 million, six-year contract. He's started just 14 games in two seasons, going 6-8. He also lost his starting job in the preseason to John Skelton, only to regain it because of injury and then get hurt again.

Kolb helped the Cardinals to a 4-0 start, lost two games and then went down. If he doesn't return this season, that won't help his chances going into next year. The Cardinals pursued Manning last offseason and certainly will keep their options open.

49ercontroversy Jim Harbaugh hasthe same approach, but in a winning environment.

The 49ers coach prefers sticking with the hot hand under center. That's why Kaepernick, a second-year pro and second-round draft pick in 2011, will make his fourth straight start today against Miami. Smith was near-perfect in his last full game before sustaining a concussion. He completed 18 of 19 passes for 232 yards and three touchdowns without an interception.

But he stayed on the bench after being medicallycleared, though Harbaugh has said he is willing to go back to him.

"We've got faith and trust in Colin in the way he's played," Harbaugh said.

"Therefore, another start this week."

At least the 49ers have that luxury.

Other teams wish they had one clear-cut

guy.

Alexis Pinturault of France produced a brilliant second run under floodlights to improve from sixth and win a World Cup slalom

By Graham Dunbar The Associated Press

ST. MORITZ, Switzerland — Lindsey Vonn's rivalry with World Cup leader Tina Maze heated up and threatened to boil over Saturday, when the Slovenian's coaches accused the A m e r ican de f ending champion of hurling an insulting expletive after winning a super-G. Vonn edged Maze toremain perfect in four speed races this season, then was shocked to find herself in a fight she hadn't intended and didn't want.

In venting her emotions on crossing the line, and realizing she had taken the lead from main challenger Maze, Vonn acknowledged she used a curse word as an expression of relief.

Still, the Slovenian team — which targeted a three-race weekend sweep for Maze after her win in Friday's supercombined — surprised most observers by alleging Vonn deliberately aimed an insult, and filed an official protest for "unsportsmanlike behavior."

"They think I s aid something very bad about her when I came to the finish and that is absolutely not true," a clearly stunned Vonn said minutes after being told of the allegation.

"It definitely hurts. I w ould never say anything bad about another athlete at the finish."

NFL Continued from D1 Luck: His numbers do not look great: a 55.5 completion percentage, 17 touchdowns, 16 interceptions. But last Sunday, Luck led his fifth gamewinning drive in the fourth quarter,the second of two touchdown drives in the final three minutes as the Indianapolis Colts came back from a 12-point deficit. With eight victories and ranking fourth in yards passing, Luck is doing more with less (the 18th-

ranked running game and 2 1st-ranked d efense) t h a n Griffin or Wilson.

Griffin: Th e W a shington Redskins q u a r terback i s completing 67.1 percent of his passes, with 17 touchdowns and four interceptions, and has run — quickly — for 714

yards. He is giving everyone a tutorial in the pistol offense and is already the most daz-

zling player in the game.

Wilson: The most unlikely success of all, having not been drafted until the third round.

With the help of one of the league's best defenses, Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks have been a revelation. He is completing 63.4 percent of his passes, for 19 touchdowns and eight interceptions. He also has 298 yards rushing.

The few races to watch There are not as many as usual, but the most intriguing will be the race in the NFC East, in which the New York Giants could be in a dogfight until the final weekend with the Redskins and the Dallas Cowboys; the NFC North, in which the Green Bay Packers and the Chicago Bears are tied, with a date in Chicago n ext Sunday; and th e t w o AFC wild cards, which the Colts, the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Cincinnati Bengals will fight for.

Pertinent tidbits: • Drew Brees, who faces t he Giants today, is 4-0 i n his career against them. After playing the New Orleans Saints, the Giants face the Atlanta Falcons and the Balt imore Ravens, who ar e a combined 11-1 at home this season.

• The Colts play the Houston Texans twice in the last four weeks.

• The Steelers and the Bengals meet Dec. 23.

At the top of the heap They are probably going to be the playoffs' top seeds. Can Atlanta and Houston earn a little respect, too? Houston plays the New England Patriots on Monday night, and then has the upstart Colts twice in

LindseyVonn, right,hugs teammate Laurenne Ross, of Bend, as she celebrates after winning a women's World Cup super-G in St. Moritz, Switzerland, Saturday.

Vonn accepted that she had sworn — "and I shouldn't have done that" — but insisted it was a reaction to skiing poorly and failing to finish Friday, knowing she is still short of full fitness after a recent illness.

"I'm struggling with my strength," the four-time World Cup champion said, insisting she was at her limits on Satur-

uled meeting of national team coaches.

Skaardal criticized the Slovenia team's actions in originally demanding to see broadcasters' film, though without naming Andrea Massi, Maze's trainer and boyfriend.

"We had officials going into the television buses which is, of course, a very critical beday. "I came down (the slope) havior and in no way acceptwith everything I have." a ble," Skaardal said at t h e Vonn's version was soon meeting, which Massi did not backed by World Cup womattend.

ceremony in the town center, where Vonn and Maze hugged on the podium with no trace of tension.

Vonn won in 1 minute, 2.71 seconds, 0.37 seconds faster than Maze and 1.01 ahead of Julia Mancuso of the U.S. in t h ird. B end's L aurenne Ross, finished in 17th place in 1:04.74.

Vonn's 57th career World Cup win, the second most in history, was her 20th in super-G. She is the four-time d efending champion in t h e discipline.

Vonn and Maze have combined to win seven of the nine World Cup events. Maze has a 163-point lead overall over 2011 champion Maria HoeflR iesch o f G e r m any, w h o placed fifth on Saturday. Vonn was third overall.

draft holds no Andrew Luck or Robert Griffin III, and can any team count on striking mid-round gold the way Seattle did with Russell Wilson'?

The free-agent pool is going to be thin, too. The race will be on for Alex Smith and Michael Vick, assuming both are released. To the loser go the spoils.

The Associated Press NAPLES, Fla. — Kenny Perry and Sean O'Hair took a two-stroke lead i n t h e Franklin Templeton Shootout on Saturday, birdieing the final six holes in betterball play for an 11-under 61.

"We got pretty hot," O'Hair said. "Kenny did a great job when I wasn't in the hole ... then I did a pretty good job when Kenny wasn't in the hole."

Perry and O'Hair were 19 under overall, two strokes ahead of first-round leaders Davis Love III and Brandt Snedeker at Tiburon Golf Club. Love and Snedeker had a 65.

The round was delayed by heavy rain and wind for 1 hour, 50 minutes.

O'Hair chipped in for birdie on No. 13 just ahead of the downpour. But the two didn't let the delay affect them.

Perry birdied Nos. 14 and 15, O'Hair birdied Nos. 16 and 17, and Perry made one on the last hole.

"It was a m azing," said Perry, who won the event in 2005 and 2008. "We come back right out of the hopper and birdie the last five holes."

"You have to keep your momentum," O'Hair said.

Love a nd Sne d e ker couldn't. A f t e r bi r d i eing three straight holes on the back and making a par, the two made two b i rdies in the last five holes after play resumed.

"Finally started making some birdies and we had to stop," Love said. "We had a rough par 5 when we came b ack and d i dn't m ak e a birdie."

History is on the side of O'Hair and Perry. The second-round leaders have gone on to win six out of the past 11, and four of the past five.

The 12 two-man teams will play a scramble today.

tenders. Keep an eye on the road games: at Washington, which has the 23rd-ranked scoring defense, and on the final day of t h e season at C incinnati, w hich h a s t h e 14th-ranked defense in points allowed.

Also on Saturday: Feng wins Dubai D UBAI, U n i te d A r a b Emirates — China's Shanshan Feng won the Dubai Ladies Masters by five strokes, closing with a 3-under 69 for her second Ladies European Tour title. The sixth-ranked Feng finished at 21-under 267 at Emirates Golf Club.

She won the LPGA Championship in June for her first major title. The Netherlands' Dewi Claire Schreefel was second after a 69.

Senden in front in Sydney SYDNEY — A u stralian John Senden took a threestroke lead in the Australian Open, making an eagle and two birdies in a f o ur-hole stretch on the back nine en route to a 2-under 70. Senden, the 2006 champion, had a three-round total of 7-under 209 in tough, windy conditions at The Lakes. Englishman Justin Rose was second after a 70.

Schwartzel leads in Thailand CHON BURI, T h ailand South A f r ica's C harl Schwartzel shot a 4-under 68 to extend his lead to five strokes after the third round of the Asian Tour's Thailand Gol f C h a mpionship.

Schwartzel had an 18-under 198 total at Amata Spring.

Sweden's Daniel C h opra was second after a 69. Masters champion Bubba Watson was tied for seventh at 7 under after a 71.

South African event starts DURBAN, South A f rica — South Africa's Tim Clark a nd D e n mark's M o r t en Orum Madsen shot 5-under 60 to share the first-round lead in the rain-delayed Nelson Mandela Championship.

Because of the wet conditions, the R oyal D u r ban course was cut from a par of 70 to 65. The tournament, the European Tour's seasonopening event, has been reduced to 36 holes.

Excellence by the sack This is the most competitive race for defensive player of the year in a w h ile, and it portends many more. All three contenders — J.J. Watt, Von Miller and Aldon Smith — are in their second seasons.

Bill Belichick called Watt the most disruptive player in the league and said he looked like t he defensive player of t h e year to him.

The Kaepernick experiment Any coach who has made a cameo on "Saved By the Bell" receives a lot of leeway, and Jim Harbaugh may need it if Colin Kaepernick's play slides, as it di d l ast week.

Would Harbaugh go back to Alex Smith, benched after suffering a c oncussion, despite completing 70 percent of his passes and going 6-2-1 as a starter? Kaepernick is the quarterback of San Francisco's future and Smith will be gone, but only the outcome of this season will determine if Harbaugh was correct to make the change when he dld.

A lack at quarterback

NAME:

A fter l as t S u n day, o n e would think there could be no debate about which team has the w orst quarterback situation. By a point, the Arizona Cardinals lost (won?) the race to the bottom, losing to the New York Jets, 7-6, in as abominable a quarterback showdown a s i s p o s sible while still throwing the ball forward. But hey, there are still four more weeks to consider. After that, there will not be many great options available to th e C a rdinals, the Jets and anybody else desperate to improve at the game's most important position. (We are looking at you,

JOHN COSTA

Changes at The Bulletin s I wrote a few weeks ago, the twin realities of a continuingly weak economy and an instantaneous end to a key advertising componentare forcing Western Communications to reduce costs.

It is a process that has been going on at all of the company's newspapers for well over a year.

With Tuesday's newspaper, we will unveil a Bulletin redesigned to save newsprint while maintaining key elements of the news report.

The most noticeable change will come with the newspaper of Monday, Dec. 17.

We are reducingthe number of sections from four to two, but each section, focused on news and sports, will be larger than the sections now published on Mondays.

Historically, Mondays have been the weakest publication days for news.

A

. er /

w v

Cv

n r t

Many newspapers have dropped Monday editions altogether, but we are committed to a seven-daya-week publication for readers and advertisers alike.

The changes over the rest of the week are more modest.

There are some eliminations, but there are also new features, the reduction of duplicated items, and the repositioning of some of our offerings.

The daily prime-time TV grid, which is duplicated in Saturday's TV magazine, will be eliminated, but we will revive Best Bets, Cover Story, Q&A and add other television features in the daily Bulletin.

The Business section will consist of two pages daily, starting on the back ofthe Sports section.The stock report will be reduced slightly but redesigned with new focus and points of analysis.

We now publish two feature sections on Tuesday and Thursday. In the new design, we will publish one each day and daily comics will move to the Classified section.

The Sunday newspaper will remain as it is today.

And, as I have written before, we are creatinga new Outdoors section, which will appear on Wednesday, and All Ages section on Friday, adding boomer-oriented news to the existing family coverage.

Those are the broad strokes, which cover hundreds of details.

Starting with the Tuesday newspaper, we will publish indexes explain-

ing the changes each day.

W e understand and regretthe disruption that this may create for you.

But there was no alternative.

These changes save 30-plus pages, which may seem a small number out of the 270-plus we routinely publish each week,but with processing costs, the savings add up to hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.

The alternative was to lay off more employees, which would diminish The Bulletin to a far greater extent now and in the future.

At the end of the day, The Bulletin will still publish hundreds of pages a week and have a news operation second to none in Central Oregon in size and scope.

Some of you will observe that we have reduced pages in the newspaper at the same time we have increased the price.

That is true.

But it comes aftera decade of embellishing The Bulletin's news while not increasing subscription prices, with the exception of adding online delivery for 50 cents a month 4/t

Gina Raimnond, left, Rhode Island's general treasurer,listens to Ernest Gibbons, a retired employee of the University of Rhode Island, after a meeting on pension reform last year in Newport, R.l. Rhode Island was the site of a sweeping pension overhaul in 2011.

• A state judge's impartiality is called into question in a Rhode Island public pension case Editors note:Several of the issues in this article have come up in Oregon when judges ruleon state pension reforms.

By Mary Williams Walsh New York Times News Service

an a judge rule impartially on pension cuts when her mother, her son, her uncle and even she herself all have a stake in preserving the status quo?

Rhode Island, the site of a sweeping pension overhaul last year, has brought in a prominent New York lawyer to litigate the question: David Boies,perhaps best known for representing Al Gore in the fight over the 2000 presidential election and for waging an antitrust battle against Microsoft on behalf of the government in the 1990s. Rhode Island's dispute may not reach quite those dramatic heights, but it is being closely watched as a first major test of whether, and how, financially strained states and cities can cut the benefits of their

workers and retirees.

Several public employee unions have sued Gov. Lincoln Chafee and other Rhode Island officials, accusing them of acting illegally when they pushed through a package of money-saving pension cuts last year, including suspending annual cost-of-livingincreases for most retirees.

The unions want the richer benefits restored.

Their five pension lawsuits were assigned to Judge Sarah Taft-Carterof the state Superior Court, who has handled public pension cases before and handed a big victory to the unions in onerecent case.Boies,who at $50 an hour is working for a small fraction of his ordinary fee, is seeking a less conflicted judge, and could even ask to move the case into federal court.

The case has raised questions and strong feelings about the overhaul in Rhode Island, a state so small that it seems as if nearly everybody has friends or family in the pension system. Could the judge see beyond the harsh effects on her own family?

When the subject came up in a hearing in

October in Rhode Island, Taft-Carter acknowledged thather son, a state trooper,was earning a pension, and her mother, the widow of a mayor, was already receiving one. (The uncle's pension came to light only later) She said she had researched the matter, sought advice from a judicial ethics board and concluded that her relatives' interests "will not reasonably impact my ability to be impartial."

Her son joined the state patrol just three years ago, she said, so calculating his pension "requiresa large degree of speculation and assumption." Her mother's pension was too small to be a factor, she said. (Court papers put it at

about $22,000 a year) And while the overhaul means the judge's pension will be smaller despite having to contribute more, she said that was true of all judges in the state: "If my financial interest should require disqualification, then all other state judges would be similarly required to recuse themselves."

A FIGHT ABOUT CUTBACKS

The approach we reluctantly took was made necessary by the ongoing mess that the banks and the Legislature have made of the mortgage foreclosure process — a mess that this year created a multimillion-dollar loss in revenue for The Bulletin.

To absorb this loss in costs alone would have created a newspaper that few readers would purchase at any subscription price.

Compared with that approach, we believe sustaining a very good newspaper, even at a higher price, is preferable forour readers,advertisers and, frankly, us.

Lincoln Chaffee, left, governor of Rhode Island,is working with the lawyer David Boies to push for pension cuts for public workers and retirees in the state. Those same cutbacks forced Denise Lamoureux, above, acting director of the Central Falls Free Library, to close the library's doors. Lawsuits stemming from the pension cuts have been assigned to a state Superior Court judge who receives those same pensions. The conflict of interest has Boies considering a move to federal court.

from the state's Education Services Districts.

There's no plan yet, though, for how $120 million can be wrung from the ESDs without damaging the critical work they do providing local school districts with services in technology, legal matters and special education, among others.

Ben Cannon, the governor's education policy adviser, said the state is committed to investing in the preparation and development of Oregon teachers, and wants to form four to six regional centers to guide teachers in the development of their craft. No decisions have been made about where the centers would be located, he said, but the intent is to train a corps of teachers who would then take the instruction back to their schools and districts. The centers would also provide a forum for the most successful schools to share their methods.

So far, so good. Having welltrained teachers is clearly a worthwhile goal with the potential to benefit students and raise achievement.

But where's the money? Why turn to the ESDs? Cannon said ESDs vary across

PEC'PLE,'p

the state, partly influenced by the different needs of rural versus urban school districts. Some function better and accomplish more than others, he said.

Deputy Superintendent of Public Instruction Rob Saxton has a work group meeting to discuss ways to cut ESD budgets, said Cannon, and they expect to have a better-defined proposal by February. The answers might not be the same across the state, according to Cannon.

It's good public policy to re-examine how government spends money and how it might do so more effectively. In fact, the common failure to do so allows government to get bloated and wasteful.

What's troubling here is the state's commitment to something new before it knows the savings in ESD budgets are realistic. For the High Desert ESD that serves Deschutes and Crook counties, for example, the cut could be as much as 29 percent of its general fund. If that proves too severe a loss, it will be hard for the state to step back from so public a declaration of intent.

M Nickel's Worth It's a Christmas tree

Good comesfrom an unfortunate beginning huck Arnold, who runs the Downtown Bend Association, isn't your average guy, we suspect. That's clear in his response to being assaulted while working in late September.

It was early in the morning of Sept. 23 when Arnold, busy cleaning up after an Oktoberfest celebration, was allegedly assaulted by Jeffrey Andrew Sherman, a young veteran who did two stints in Iraq during a five-year tour in the U.S. Army.

Sherman shoved Arnold, who had tried to break up a dispute between him and a woman. Arnold suffered a gash to the head that required nine staples as a result of that shove. Sherman apologized when he saw the damage he had done.

Arnold didn't simply file a police report and bow out of the situation, however. Rather, he argued to the district attorney that misdemeanor assault charges against Sherman should be dropped. A plea hearing on the matter has been set forMonday, and Sherman likely will be allowed to take part in a diversion program that will allow charges to be dropped if he completes it successfully.

C

It should be noted here that there's nothing automatic about Sherman's diversion, no matter what he and Arnold want. As District Attorney Patrick Flaherty told reporter Sheila Miller, his office represents the state, not the victim, in criminal cases. The decision to pursue the matter in court depends upon what his office feels is best for the state.

Meanwhile, Arnold and Sherman agreeabout one thing.American veterans returning from duty in places like Iraq and Afghanistan can have real problems adjusting to life back home, and they may have problems connecting to the services that could make the transition easier. The two are working to spread the word about those services.

It's clear from all this that Arnold is a man of compassion who is able to see the good in someone who has harmed him. It's a toorarecharacteristicthese days,and under the circumstances Sherman is lucky to have met him. In the end, their unfortunate encounter is likely to turn out well — not only for Sherman, but for other newly home vets in the area.

OMMENTARY

e in e are still borrowing more than $1 t r i llion a y e a r.

Barack Obama has added more than $5 trillion to the national debt in just his first term alone. Such massive borrowing is unsustainable.

Someone somehow at some time has to pay it back.

Obama would agree. He once alleged that George W. Bush's much smaller deficits were "irresponsible" and "unpatriotic." Obama himself vowed to cut the budget deficit in half by the end of his first term. Instead, Obama's annual deficits have never gone below $1 trillion.

Three ways to establish a longterm trajectory toward a balanced budget were under discussion. One was to adopt the proposals of the nonpartisan Simpson-Bowles Commission appointed by Obama. The commission offered a balanced mix of taxreform and greater revenues, along with cuts in federal spending.

But the president was not interested.

The commission's findings n ow seem stale just two years after they were issued.

Another way would have been to adopt the Bill Clinton-Newt Gingrich compromise formula of the 1990s that balanced the budget through a seriesof across-the-board tax hikes and spending cuts. But while the administration talked grandly of a return to higher "Clinton-era tax rates," it never mentioned the necessary second half of the old equation — "Clinton-era spending cuts." That

All the old criteria that decide in a free-market economy how much we are able to make — education levels, hard work, p ersonal responsibility, particular tastes and values, skill sets, self-discipline, or even sheer luck, accidents, relative health or inheritance — now matter far less.

Instead, Obama's all-knowing, all-powerful f ederal g overnment, through higher taxes, more spending and greater deficits, will set right what the unfair marketplace has so skewed. At last, we learn what Obama really meant when, in unguarded moments, he sermonized about "redistributive change," the need to "spread the wealth," knowing the proper time not to profit, and at some point making too much money.

Do we need any longer to heed the ancient advice — scrimp to leave something behind for y our k i ds; try to get a promotion; make sure your savings account is larger than what you owe — if some inequality results'?

There is now only one commandment in the new Kingdom of Fairness: Make less than $250,000, and the government will ensure that you, the deserving,get your fair share.

Make more than that, and the government will demand that you, the undeserving, pay your fair share.

That is all ye need to know.

A good deal will raise taxes, fix entitlements

By Peter Orszag Bloomberg News

lthough it isn't yet time to panic about the fiscal cliff, negotiations so far aren't exactly going well. The Republicans are committing themselves to an unsustainable principle of no marginal tax-rate increases whatsoever.

And the Democrats are failing to seize the moment to make progressivereforms to Medicare and Social Security.

There's still time to come to an agreement to prevent the more than $600 billion in federal spending cuts and taxincreases scheduled to take effect in January while also raising the debt limit, but both sides will need to get out of the boxes they have put themselves in.

Let's start with the Republicans.

Their adamant opposition to an increasein marginal tax rates for anyone, anywhere, has two problems.

First, raising huge amounts of revenue by reducing tax expenditures gets harder to do as the details become clear. The only practical way to hit a reasonable revenue target is to have some increase in marginal rates.

The second problem is that hardand-fast principles can look increasingly ridiculous when taken, by opponents, to their logical extremes.

Imagine some clever but Machiavellian Democrat (Sen. Charles Schumer of New York comes to mind) proposing that the top marginal tax rate be increased to35.5 percent, from 35 percent, for people with income above $5 million. Would the Republicans really blow up a deal over an almost undetectable increase on a tiny

A

number of extremely high-income taxpayers? That would be political suicide. On the other hand, if the Republicans accept this increase, then they don't have a principle anymore.

On this issue, Republicans are losing the support of even leading chief executives and K Street lobbyists. Randall Stephenson, the CEO of ATRT, for one, recently stated that a deal "will require a compromise involving an increase in both tax rates and revenue in return for real and significant steps to reform entitlements and rein in federal spending."

Note that Stephenson's statement s pecifically mentions higher t ax rates.

On the other hand, it also reminds us that the negotiations are about more than taxes. There is also the debt limit, which, according to the best guesses of both the Congressional Budget Office and the Bipartisan Policy Center, will be reached in the first quarter of 2013.

So the question for the Democrats is: Even if you win higher marginal tax rates, how do you plan to get the debt limit increased? The Republicans, after all, could cave on raising taxes but still be unwilling to include a debt-limit increase in the agreement, absent any changes to entitlements. In this case, the fiscal-cliff victory would be Pyrrhic, with another crisis arriving in February or March.

In any case, Democrats should affirmatively want entitlement reform that is progressive and puts the crucial programs on a sounder footing.

On Social Security, the Democrats, while they still control the White House and the Senate, should want to lock in the victory they have already

levels as a share ofthe economy.

The administration claims that it is committed to reforming Social Security — just not right now. But why w ould reform be easier in,say,2014, when nothing is forcing action, than it is today? (And if the problem is that Republicans are reluctant to vote for additional revenue as part of Social Securityreform, how exactly does that change overthe next year or

two?)

What is the Fed's debt-debate role?

By Charles Lane The Washington Post

udging by the latest signs and portents, President Obama and congressional Republicans appear to be at an impasse over taxes and spending, and t h e c o untry might indeed be headed over the "fiscal cliff." Next year's economic sluggishness and partisan recriminations could make today's look like a picnic.

The two parties and their allied pundits blame each other; each side has its points. But while everyone's pointing fingers, let me at least wave in the direction of the Federal Reserve and its chairman, Ben Bernanke. There'sa case to be made that Bernanke's low interest-rate policies are part of the problem, too.

How so? What could the politically independent central bank's pursuit of its mission possibly have to do with Congress' handling of its tax-and-spend business'?

The answer is: nothing directly or intentionally, but everything indirectly and unintentionally.

With the U.S. economy still reeling from the Great Recession, the

J

Fed has been trying to stimulate economic growth by holding down interest rates, and it has pledged to keep doing so through mid-2015. It

does this in large part by buying up government debt. Partly as a result, the United States was able to issue $4 trillion in new debt from 2009 through 2011, while keeping net interest costs at or below 1.5 percent of grossdomesticproduct.

It's perfectly consistent with the Fed's mandate. And it sounds like a great deal for the government, too. According to more than a few economists, pundits and politicians, Congress shouldseize the opportunity to borrow and spend on growthe nhancing i nvestments such a s infrastructure.

However, in a properly function-

ing economy, rising government borrowing costs can play a useful role: Specifically, they are the market's way of warning government that its debts are unsustainable.

Muffle that signal, as the Fed's policy is doing now, and politicians are less able to guess right about how much time they really have to fix fiscal policy.

According to the 2012 annual report of the global "central bank for central banks," the Bank for International Settlements (BIS), "near zero policy interest rates, combined with abundant and nearly unconditional liquidity support, weaken incentives for ... fiscal authorities to limit their borrowing requirements."

In short, the Fed is making it easier for Congress not to do its job.

The Fed alone is not responsible for today's low rates. To some extent, they reflect investors' flight to safe government bonds due to the lack of high-yielding alternatives in the sluggish private markets. Also, the central banks of China and Ja-

pan are doing their part by holding $1.1 trillion of Treasury debt each to offset their cumulative trade surpluses with us.

Bernanke has specifically and firmly denied responsibility for the politicians' fiscal dithering. In an Oct. 1 speech, he rejected the notion that the Fed should use monetary policy "to try to influence the political debate on the budget."

Bernanke was correct. But he was also pummeling a straw man. No

one is saying that he is enabling the fiscal impasse on purpose — at least I'm not. Nor is anyone suggesting that heshould reverse course on interestrates for the express purpose of disciplining the politicians.

The real point, as the BIS put it, is that "central banks are being cornered into prolonging monetary stimulus as governments drag their feet and adjustment is delayed."

Bernanke can't raise rates without blowing up the economic recovery.The recovery, in turn,buys time for Congress and the White House to address fiscal issues under benign conditions. Yet without the spur of higher rates, politicians are more likely to waste that time — and, consequently, blow up th e economic recovery.

It's anyone's guess how much longer this game can go on, before markets finally do deliver an interest rate shock so powerful that even the Fed can't counteract it. But I am pretty sure that whenever that shock comes, it will be sooner than we'd like.

Iron fists, iron domes TEL AVIV, Israelwent to synagogue Saturday not far from the Syrian border in Antakya, Turkey. It's been on my mind ever since.

Antakya is home to a tiny Jewish community, which still gathers for holidays at the little Sephardic synagogue. It is also famous for its mosaic of mosques and Orthodox, Catholic, Armenian and Protestant churches.

How could it be that I could go to

t

synagogue in Turkey on Saturday while on Friday, just across the Orontes River in Syria, I had visited with Sunni Free Syrian Army rebels embroiled in a civil war in which Syrian Alawites and Sunnis are killing each other on the basis of their ID cards, Kurds arecreating theirown enclave, Christians are hiding and the Jews

are long gone?

For me, it raises the question of whether there are just three governing options in the Middle East today: Iron Empires, Iron Fists or Iron Domes?

The reason that majorities and minorities co-existed relatively harmoniously for some 400 years when the Arab world was ruled by the Turkish Ottomans from Istanbul was because the Sunni Ottomans, with their Iron Empire, monopolized politics.

While there were exceptions, generally speaking the Ottomans and their local representatives were in charge in cities like Damascus, Antakya and Baghdad. Minorities, like Alawites, Shiites, Christians and Jews, though second-class citizens, did not have to worry that they'd be harmed if they did not rule. The Ottomans had a live-and-let-live mentality toward their subjects.

When Britain and France carved up the Ottoman Empire in the Arab East,theyforgedthevariousOttoman provinces into states — with names like Iraq, Jordan and Syria — that did not correspond to the ethnographic map. So Sunnis, Shiites, Alawites, Christians, Druze, Turkmen, Kurds and Jews found themselves trapped together inside national boundaries that were drawn to suit the interests of the British and French. Those colonial powers kept everyone in check.

But once they withdrew, and these countries became independent, the contests for power began, and minorities were exposed. Finally, in the late 1960s and 1970s, we saw the emergence ofa class ofA rab dictators and monarchs who perfectedIron Fists

(and multiple intelligence agencies) to decisively seize power for their sect or tribe.

In Syria, under the Assad family's iron fist, the Alawite minority came to rule over a Sunni majority, and in Iraq, under Saddam's iron fist, a Sunni minority came to rule over a Shiite majority. But these countries never tried to build real "citizens" who could share and peacefully rotate in power. So what you are seeing today in the Arab awakening countries — Syria, Iraq, Tunisia, Libya, Egypt and Yemen — is what happens when there is no Iron Empire and the people rise up against the iron fists.

Israelis have responded to the collapse of Arab iron fists around them — including the rise of militias with missiles in Lebanon and Gaza — with a third model. It is the wall Israel built around itself to seal off the West Bank coupled with its I ron Dome antimissile system. The wall plus the dome are enabling Israel's leaders to abdicate their responsibility for thinking creatively about a resolution of their own majority-minority problem with the Palestinians.

I am stunned at what I see here politically. On the right, in the Likud Party, the old leadership that was at least connected with the world is being swept aside in the latest primary by a rising group of far-right settleractivists who are convinced that Palestinians are no threat anymore and that no one can roll back the 350,000 Jews living in the West Bank. The farright group running Israel today is so arrogant, and so indifferent to U.S. concerns, that it announced plans to build a huge block of settlements in the heart of the West Bank — in retaliation for the U.N. vote giving Palestinians observer status — even though the U.S. did everything possible to block that vote and the settlements would sever any possibility of a contiguous Palestinian state.

I am glad that the wall and the Iron Dome are sheltering Israelis from enemies who wish to do them ill, but I fear the wall and the Iron Dome are also blinding them from truths they still badly need to face.

This is a great Christmas romance.

Fans who haven't spent time in RaeAnne Thayne's Cold Creek during Christmas will definitely want to take the trip this year — and chances are extremely good that once you go, you'll be looking to find earlier books in this addicting series.

Thayne is one of those authors who lures a reader to investin her characters and settings. She does a masterful job of blending romance and Christmas, offering holiday spirit and the sweet satisfaction of a t ouching love story.

Fans of the series are familiar with the tragedy that struck the Bowman family m ore than a decade earlier.

Previous books allowed police chief Trace and fire chief Taft to heal some of the emotional wounds when they found (or re-found, in Taft's case) their true loves.

A bonus in "A Cold Creek Noel" is visiting the twin brothers and their family.

This time, though, the focus is on Caidy, the youngest sibling, the only sister and the only one with their beloved parents when they were murdered.

Since the Bowman parents were murdered during the holiday season, Christmas isn't Caidy's favorite time of year. But the sunnyn atured, nurturing a u nt makes the season festive for her adored niece, who she has helped raise with her brother Ridge.

Despite a negative first impression, the soft-hearted Caidy offers the new vet in town use of a cabin on her ranch for him and his children. Ben is a widower who has moved his two children to Cold Creek to get them away fromhis nasty in-laws.

He doesn't want to start a new relationship.

Of course, he does.

Oliver Burkeman's book "The Antidote" begins with thousands of people trying to think p ositive thoughts together.

A British journalist, Burkeman attends a "Get Motivated!" session in a Texas baseball stadium. In exchange for a pricey admission fee, he getstohear President George W. Bush deliver a talk on the power of optimism. And he listens as Robert H. Schuller, the self-help guru and founder of the Crystal Cathedral, confidently reveals the secret of success.

"Here's the word that will change your life," Schuller tells his audience. After a dramatic pause he yells out, "Cut! ... Cut the word 'impossible' from your life.... Cut it out forever!"

A few months later Schuller, the ringmaster of this failure-is-not-an-option lovefest, declares his Crystal Cathedral bankrupt.

This d e liciously i r o n ic opening is one of several amusing and instructive passages in "The Antidote: Happiness for People Who Can't Stand Positive T h inking," which takes every self-help book you've ever read and turns it inside out.

Burkeman, a c o l umnist for th e G u ardian, begins with a skillful and entirely persuasive dissection of the arguments that have sent millions of books about success and happiness flying off the shelves. Examine those books closely and you'll find nothing more t han b anal messages, Burkeman writes.

Scientific research shows that they rarely help anyone.

Having established that the ideas in self-help books are superficial and often selfdefeating, Burkeman heads off in search of what he calls a "negative path to happiness" where a " backwards law" prevails.

Accept the idea that you will inevitably die. Learn to celebrate your failures. See the wisdom in your pessimistic thoughts. Burkeman writes that "the effort to try and feel happy is often precisely the thing that makes us miserable." He argues that "it is our constant efforts to eliminate the negative — insecurity, uncertainty, failure, or Self Referrals Welcome

sadness — that is what causes us tofeelso insecure,anxious, uncertain, or unhappy."

In search of the "negative path" to happiness, Burkeman's book takes us to a slum in Kenya, to a Massachusetts meditation retreat, and to the deathbed ofa man who dedicated his life to writing eloquently about death.

Some of th e people he meets — like the modern-day stoics of Britain — are kooky individualists who've found their own, unique paths to happiness by latching on to some old ideas. They're not the kind of people you'd want to emulate, but their insights into modern definitions of happiness are instructive.

More persuasive are the findings of th e a cademics who have conducted scientific studies of the self-help movement, and Burkeman's own insights into the motivational stories that are supposed to teach us how to be successful. Using the example of the disasters that have befallen many who have tried to climb Mt. Everest — the ultimate t ype-A p e r sonality g o a l — Burkeman shows persuasively that "goal setting" as a path to success is a fallacy.

Instead of thinking about success so much, Burkeman writes, consider the nirvana one reaches in failure. In failure our ambitions are stripped away, and we see who we really are. We learn that failing miserably usually isn't the disaster we imagine it to be.

"I was set free, because my greatest fear had been realized, and I was still alive," J.K. Rowling says of the moment she hit bottom, as a divorced single mom. Failure, Rowling says, gave her "an inner security" that remains as valuable to her as any success.

history rom its Germanroots "Inventing the Christmas Tree" tion is Germanic."

by Bernd Brunner, translated

by Benjamin A. Smith (Yale University Press,$18)

The book's many p eriod illustrations include a 19thcentury engraving of Martin Luther and his family sitting by a Christmas tree, proof of the power of images to make myth. Luther died in 1546; the first confirmed Christmas tree in his hometown, Wittenberg, didn't appear until the 18th century, and family celebrations around a tree didn't become common until the end of that century. But Luther had e ncouraged the celebration o f Christmas; for a long time, Christmas trees i n Ger m any, sometimes called Lutherbaum, were considered a Protestant thing.

"The attraction of all things green, colorful, and glittering in the cold season is elemental," Bernd writes. While some people have used deciduous trees, coniferswon outbecause of their year-round greenery.

Fir trees, Bernd notes, "have traditionally b ee n c r e dited with extraordinary strength and perseverance."

While some church leaders initially saw the trees as hedonistic symbols, their embrace

If you've just returned from a tree lot and plan to pull out boxes of decorations this afternoon, you may find it hard to imagine that Christmas trees took well into the 19th century to be widely accepted in the United States.

"In a s e nse," w rites scho l a r Bernd Brunner in his compact cultural history of the holiday icon, "the Americanization of the 'German' Christmas tree runs parallel to the Americanization of German immigrants."

Brunner unpacks the history of the Christmas tree as calmly and carefully as someone might unwrap keepsake ornaments. While there are many conjectures about the origin of Christmas trees, the firsttree Brunner can document was in the Strasbourg Cathedral in 1539. Summing up the roots of this holiday icon, he quotes German historian Alexander Demandt: "The meaning is Christian, the origins are ancient, and the form of the Christmas celebra-

provided a convenient place for Christmas trees.

T ree d e c orations h a v e evolved over the centuries, too.

Until the 19th century, nuts, sweets, baked goods and other edibleswere the chief decor.

Christian symbols became increasingly common in the 19th century. Tinsel, he contends, was inspired by the silver- and gold-plated copper wire left over from metal work. Some trees sported Dresdens, threedimensional paper ornaments named after the city. Glass ornaments grew out of the glassblowing craft of G ermany's central region.

The tradition of placing an angel or another fancy object on the top of the three also grew in the 19th century, when fewer trees were hung from rafters or joists.

C andles wer e t h e f i r s t Christmas tree lights. They could be dangerous, and people and houses were burned. Striving for safer illumination, one inventor made a gaslit cast-iron Christmas tree in the 1870s.

That didn't catch on in this universe, but electric lights did.

Brunner even addresses the history of the humble but necessary Christmas tree stand, without dwelling on the fingers that get caught in them.

In times of adversity, he said, people were known to cut a rutabaga in half, and drill a hole in it to hold the tree.

"The Particle at the End of the Universe: How the Hunt for the Edge of a New World"

by Sean Carroll

(Dutton, $27.95)

By David L Ulin Los Angeles Times

On July 4, 2012, at the CERN laboratory in Geneva — home to the massive part icle accelerator known as the Large Hadron Collider, or LHC — two groups of physicists announced the discovery of a new elementary particle, the Higgs boson. Widely known as "the God particle," the Higgs is important, on the most basic level, for givingother subatomic particles mass.

"The Higgs particle arises

from a field pervading space, known as the Higgs field," explains Caltech physicist Sean Carroll in "The Particle at the End of the Universe: How the Hunt for the Higgs Boson Leads Us to the Edge of a New World." "Everything in the known universe, as it travels through space, moves through the Higgs field; it's always there lurking invisibly in the background."

As to why t his matters, Carroll points out that "without the Higgs, electrons and quarks would be massless, just like photons, the particles of light. They would move at the speed of light themselves, and it would be impossible to form atoms and molecules much less life as we know it. ... Without it, the world would be an utterly different place."

"The Particle at the End of the Universe" is a scientific detective story, the saga of the searchforthe Higgs. Like all such stories, it's driven by a fundamental, yet elusive, mystery: What is the nature of the universe? That, Carroll believes, is both a matter of philosophy and curiosity, going back to Aristotle on the one hand, and on the other, to our ongoing fascination with how reality works.

"Passion for science," he writes late in the book, "derives from an aesthetic sensibility, not a practical one. We discoversomethingnewabout the world, and that lets us better appreciate its beauty."

This is a key idea, for it suggests a way of thinking about theoretical physics — even for the non-scientifically minded — as the search for "an elegant mechanism ... like being able to read poetry in the original language, instead of being stuck with mediocre translation."

To elaborate, Carroll gives a lot of context: facts and figures, yes, but also passion, c haracters, history. He i n troduces physicists such as

curately, the Higgs field) represents a subatomic spark.

For Carroll, that's important because it brings us closer to understanding the universe in which we live.

A f ine C h ristmas gift would be one that beckons you to incorporate the gentler holiday spirit into the rest of the year. Christian McEwen's remarkable "World Enough 8c Time: On Creativity and Slowing Down" demands to be read slowly, savored and then allowed to simmer quietly in the soul.

Having acquired a small army of loyalists, both in the United States and abroad, it has just gone into its third printing. The w onder of this book lies not in its new truths, but rather in its eclectic and quirky re-invention of timeless truths.

While McEwen ties her central focus — "hurry sickness" — to texting, email, the Internet and other digitaldiseases of our age, her book shows that creative men and women have been rebelling against h y peraccelerated lives for centuries.

The most concise summary of "World Enough" comes from Socrates,the ancient philosopher who McEwen notes approvingly warned his fellow Greeks: "Beware the barrenness of a

busy life."

L auding n a t ur e a n d "childhood's golden hours," McEwen often echoes the anti-technological notes of American transcendentalists Ralph Waldo Emerson and Henry David Thoreau.

But what elevates her book, beyond its rich thought and lush writing, is her emphasis that you don't need to become a hermit fleeing to a cabin on a pond in order to find a more meaningful life.

With her gift for making connections over time across literary, religious and cultural traditions, McEwen insists that pursuing seemingly impractical interests such as reading or walking, daydreaming or gazing, can produce important practical gains.

"Wordsworth was read

by Thoreau who was read

by John Muir who in turn was readby Theodore Roosevelt, leading him to write the bills that inaugurated the National Park system," she writes.

Peter Higgs, from whom the Higgs boson gets its name, as well as Franqois Englert, Robert Brout, Carl Richard Hagen, Gerald Guralnik and Tom Kibble, all of whom did groundbreaking work in the early 1960s positing the existence of such a particle — postulations that took nearly half a century to bear out The book alsotracesthe politics and the economics of the LHC, built with international money an d pa r t icipation.

"Over and over again," Carroll writes, "physicists I talked to while writing this book spoke ... about how CERN could serveas amodel forlarge-scale international c o llaboration."

One tells him, "What's amazing to me is that we have people from 70 countries around the world working — together.

Palestinians and Israelis working side-by-side, Iranians and Iraqi scientists work together — such collaboration in the pursuit ofbig science shouldn't be overlooked."

At the same time, Carroll grounds "The Particle at the End of the Universe" in the personal, using his childhood interest in dinosaurs to frame what he calls "the quest for awesome — that literal awe that you feel when you understand something profound for the first time."

For Carroll, the point is to make his material accessible, to open subatomic physics to an audience that might be daunted otherwise. In that sense, I may be his ideal reader, interested in the concepts but intimidated by the calculations and the math.

And yet, it's Carroll's status as a physicist — an insider, as it were — that gives "The Particle at the End of the Universe" its necessary heft. Were he a journalist or a science writer, he might tend toward the metaphorical in explaining the Higgs project. But even though he's not averse to framing comparisons, he doesn't want to oversimplify.

Without the Higgs, there'd be no friction, no essential tension, nothing for t h ose quarks, neutrinos and electrons to push against. In that sense, perhaps, it maybe most accurate to call the Higgs boson an animating force, one that disrupts, or breaks, certain symmetries between particles and helps create a differentiated world.

Now I'm the one oversimplifying. But the idea is that the Higgs boson (or more ac-

Reading "Martin Amis: 11, for example, he declares: The Biography" is like watch- "Not since Orwell has a litering a moose try to describe a ary writermade his presence

felt so forcefully in the adjacent realms of politics, history and serious journalism." I scribbled in the margins: "Naipaul? Vidal? Didion? Mailer?" Even the photo selection in "Martin Amis: The Biography" is drab.

Bradford is correct, however, to identify Amis and his friends — Christopher Hitchens, James Fenton, Ian McEwan, Salman Rushdie, Clive James and Julian Barnes among them — as "the most fashionable literary set since the war." They, and Amis himself, are rarely dull to read about. This fact shores this book's ruins.

T he particulars of A m i s' childhood, i n a lite r a rybohemian household busy with (thanks to his father, the novelist Kingsley Amis) parties and extracurricular sexual activity,

have been hashed over countless times. Amis himself, as a teenager,is described by a relative as "sanguine beyond his years"and "tired ofeverything before he knew anything."

The detail that sticks with you about Amis as a young man is that, until he was 18, he showed little interest in reading or high culture. He crammed to get into Exeter College, Oxford, and, once there, never slowed down.

"It is astonishing that within four years of his having first properly encountered literature per se," the author writes, "Martin would be writing pieces for The TLS, The New Statesman and Observer that caused great trepidation among the most established writers with books out for review."

Once he left Oxford, we are told, Amis gave himself a year to write a novel. If that didn't pan out, he thought, he might go intoacademia. The novel he produced, "The Rachel Papers" (1973), put him on the map. His early novels did not make him wealthy, though, and he worked at places like The Times Literary Supplement and The New Statesman, where he became literary editor.

Still, no one thought he had it rough. In a game to come up with the most unlikely book title, the winner around this period was said to be: "Martin

Amis: My Struggle."

Amis' charm, talent, lineage and good looks attracted women, tabloid gossip columnists and vindictive envy in almost equal proportion. Brad-

ford neatly chronicles Amis' multiple (and sometimes over-

lapping) girlfriends, many of whom are described with comments like "the most captivating female of her generation."

Even here Bradford's prose seems canned, like the voiceover in a 1950s-era industrial film. This is his introduction to Amis' legendary wild years: Amis' personal magnetism is best described by others.

One friend nailed him this way: "He'd stand there on the lawn, croquet mallet swung over his shoulder, rolled fag in mouth and very large drink in hand.

He was small and ridiculously handsome. The rest of us would be keeling over with laughter at everything he said. God, he held court and everyone relished it."

James Meunier, a retired Central Falls police officer,speaks at a meeting where retired police officers and firefighters were asked to accept large pension reductions last year in Central Falls, R.l.

Pension Continued from F1 Boies is expected to appear in court on Friday and cite the state's judicial code of conduct, which requires judges to recusethemselves when their spouses, parents or children have an economic stake in the litigation before them.

The state'sSupreme Court justices, who have been asked for a review, are also members of the state pension system.

In an interview, Boies said that challenging Taft-Carter's impartiality was just "the first step,"and the bigger issue was whether any judges in Rhode Island could handle the case, given their personal stakes.

C ompanies r outinely h a v e their pension disputes decided by federal courts, which grant more leeway in changing pension plans.

"The plaintiffs brought this case the way they did to try to avoid federal jurisdiction," Boies said.

Whatever the outcome of the hearing, Boies said he would continue torepresent Rhode Island until all of the lawsuits and appeals were decided.

Boies, whose standard fee is $1,250 an hour, said $50 an hour was "the same fee that I charged the United States when I represented the Department of Justice in the Microsoft case."

Boies b ecame i n v olved, he said, because he was convinced that R hode Island's pension troubles were just the tip of a $5 trillion iceberg of unsecured retirement promises to the nation's millions of public workers.

"This is something that can cripple state and m unicipal governments at a time when the federalgovernment is,m ore and more, cutting back on the services it provides," he said.

Public employee unions, in Rhode Island and elsewhere, argue that people like Boies are exaggerating the size of America's total public pension shortfall.

The fundamental question in the l awsuits is w h ether Rhode Island can renege on promises to public workers.

The unions say it cannot, citing language in the state constitution forbidding the abrogation of contracts.

The state argues that its pension system was created by statute, not by c ontract, and statutes can lawfully be amended. In a previous suit,

"There's no contract.

Even if there was a contract, the state, pursuing the public interest, has the right to modify contracts."

— David Boies, lawyer for Rhode lsland

Taft-Carter agreed with the unions that the pension system was an implied contract b etween the state an d i t s workers.

Boies disagrees.

"There's no contract," he said. "Even if there was a contract, the state, pursuing the public interest, has the right to modify contracts."

Cities, states and their lawyers around the country are following the case avidly, said Amy Monahan, a law professor at the University of Minnesota who has written extensively on legal aspects of employee benefits. Many are wondering whether their own pension systems are sustainable, she said, and if not, how to make them so.

Rhode Island enacted its pension overhaul at the urging of its state treasurer, Gina Raimondo, a Democrat. She and Chafee, a Republican turned independent, persuaded lawmakers to approve a package that included increases in the official retirement age, a sharp decrease in the "defined benefit" portion of the plan, and the suspension of the typical 3 percent cost-of-living allowances for retirees.

Taft-Carter's mother's situation shows what's at stake. Her retirement benefit consists of a $900-a-month base pension, plus an extra $984.39 a month, from the compounded 3 percent annual adjustments.

The pension overhaul does not roll back the clock to the $900-a-month benefit; rather, it f r eezes each retiree's pension at the current level — $1,884.39 in this case — for a recovery periodthat could take as long as 20 years.

Rhode Island's effort is "the clearest example of f u ndamental pension reform that we have right now," Raimondo said. "Even though whatever Rhode Island decides doesn't serve as actual precedent for other states, other states and cities still want to know if it can work."

• More bars, restaurants, convenience stores in Central Oregonfill the 64-ounce containers

As short-sale tax breakexpires, pressuremounts on homeowners

By Rachael Rees

By Kimberly Miller

The Bulletin

Palm Beach Post

tanding at the counter inside the Shell gas station on Bend's east side, Jim Mathiesen contemplated the nearly 30 beers available on tap, trying to decide which one should fill his 64ounce growler.

Mathiesen, 49, said he's been filling up his growler at The Growler Guys since the beer started flowing. And

The race is on to finalize short sales and seal the deal on mortgage reductions as the Dec. 31 expiration of a massive tax break for struggling homeowners looms.

Since 2007, homeowners whose banks have forgiven unpaid mortgage debt after a short sale, principal reduction or foreclosure have not been required to count that money as income on their tax returns.

But the sunset of the federal Mortgage Forgiveness Debt Relief Act means borrowers, who have been spared tens of thousands of dollars depending on the amount forgiven and their tax bracket, may be faced with whopping IRS bills after losing their home.

Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi is leading a group of attorneys general from around the country in lobbying for an extension of the act. In a Nov. 20 letter to lawmakers, Bondi and Connecticut Attorney General George Jepsen said allowing the tax break to expire would dilute the $25 billion mortgage settlement made with the nation's five largest banks in March.

now, filling his growler between two and five times a week has become a ritual.

It's a cost-effective way to enjoy a variety of craft beers,he said, as he sampled one of the brews.

Mathiesen isn't the only one.

On average, The Growler Guys fill nearly 900 growlers per week.

Add in those filled by the 15 breweries that provide the service in Central Oregon, and you get nearly 2,700 growlers filled each week.

From an increasing number of growler fills and businesses offering the to-go bottles, to an emerging retail sector for growler accessories, the growler craze is bubbling up in Central

To meet the growing growler demand, The Growler Guys owners, Kizer and Kent Couch, plan to branch out beyond the Shell station/convenience store at Northeast 27th Street and U.S. Highway 20 and open a second location on the north side of Bend by February.

The expansion won't stop there, they said.

PUYALLUP, Wash. — A sevenfoot evergreen willbear 350,000 needles, more or less. And if Gary Chastagner has his way this holiday season, precious few of them will end up on the parlor floor.

As a plant pathologist at Washington State University, Chastagner, 64, heads one of the nation's halfdozen Christmastreeresearch labs.

Recent months have found Chastagner frittering away his time on a multistate, $1.3 million RNAsequencing trial. By sampling trees hehas tested for needle . lb.~ s retention, Chastagner and his colleagues hope to discover the genes associated with shedding.

Tax Continued from G1 "Unless Congress acts, all of the remaining debt relief to be provided in 2013 under the National Mortgage Settlement will likely be considered taxable income," the letter said.

Settlement monitor Joseph Smith, who ov e rsees bank Shaio innBrink tell:ucgrg @ !3 compliance with th e agreem ent, is staying out of t h e fray. He said the extension is "under the purview of elected officials."

At the same time, the Congressional Budget Office estimates extending the relief could cost $1.3 billion in lost revenue tothe federal government during a period when it is "desperate for money," said Anthony Sanders, a George Richard Graulich /Palm Beach Post Mason University real estate Realtor Shannon Brink stands infront of a short-sale home in West Palm Beach, Fla.

"Peopleare already suffer-

OYt $

ing enough who go through default and foreclosure, and to suddenly give them a tax bill is incredibly cold-hearted," Sanders said. "The government was a major contributor to the housing bubble and burst, so it's only fair that it extend the act to help households that have b een ab s olutely crushed by the market."

In August, language that would extend the mortgage debt relief act was rolled into the Family and Business Tax Cut Certainty Ac t o f 2 0 12

(S.3521). The act i ncludes about 50 t ax-cutting provisions and was approved by the Senate Finance Committee in August.

An aide to finance committee Chairman Max Baucus, DMont., said the act is awaiting a vote by the full Senate but has not been given a calendar date.

While m any e c onomists, Realtors and accountants believe the mortgage debt relief will be extended, they can't say how or when.

Sanders said it's caught up in party politics and a debate that now includes whether to amend th e m o r tgage-interest deduction tax break, a decades-old law that annually costs the government about $100 billion. Even if an extension to the debt relief act isn't approved by Dec. 31, it could be voted on in 2013 and made retroactive, Sanders said.

Accountant Karyi Neal of the firm Moore, Ellrich & Neal La Palm Beach Gardens,Fla., said settling mortgage debt relief is important but may be lessof a priority for lawmakers than averting the fiscal cliff.

If they don't, they face an estimated $340,000 in forgiven debt on which they will have to pay taxes, said Shannon Brink, their Realtor.

"We're scrambling like maniacs to get it closed," Brink said. "I have some anxiety, but I've pulled off m i r acles before."

Jeff Shingledecker l isted his Palm Beach Gardens, Fla., home as a short sale in April.

He considered a loan modification that would increase the term of his mortgage to 40 years but decided to do a short sale after learning about the debt relief act.

After several offers, he said he was "fortunate enough" to close the deal in October and expects to have about $108,000 of debt forgiven.

Considering S h ingiedecker's tax bracket, he would have owed about $27,000 in taxes.

Growler Continued from G1 Kizer Couch, Kent's son, said he hopes to have six, total, in Central Oregon and would like to see The Growler Guys also expand into other parts of the state and even into Boise, Idaho, through franchise and licensing agreements.

In March, The Growler Guys opened a 12-tap growler-fill station within a small portion of the Stop and Go Mini Mart to test out the market, Kizer Couch said. Four months and $65,000 later, The G rowler Guys have a 30-tap — soon to be 34 — fill station, an assortment of different sizes and styles of bottles, growler accessorieslike koozies and carriers, as well as other Growler Guys and brewery swag such as T-shirts and hats.

"There was a definite demand for fresh craft to-go," he said. "Craft beer is really

The Growler Guys, located on Northeast 27th Street and U.S. Highway 20 in Bend, is a one-stop shop for growlers with more than 30 taps to choose from, and other swag like growler bottles and carriers.

About half the taps feature local breweries, such as Silver Moon Brewing, Boneyard Beer and GoodLife Brewing Co., Kizer Couch said. There's other beverages besides beer, including hard cider, sangria from Volcano Vineyards, and six additional taps dedicated to kombucha tea.

Sara Wiener, owner of Sara Bella Upcycfed, is tapping into the growing popularity of growlers, creating local brewery-branded growler tote bags. On Dec. 1 she dropped off her first order of personalized totes to Crux Fermentation Project in Bend.

The growler trend goes beyond Central Oregon, according to Paul Gatza, director for the Boulder-based Brewers Association.

"It feels like the tip of an iceberg to me," he wrote in an email. "It is popping up, but will b ecome a g r eater trend, now that non-brewery companies are setting up fill stations."

Sunoco, a Ph i l adelphiabased oil company, tested a growler-fill program in a retail store in the East and plans to expand, he said.

In Central Oregon, bars, restaurants and convenience stores have either started filling growlers or plan to in the near future.

On Friday, Empire Car Wash on Bend's north side opened a 29-tap growler fill station, said co-owner Rick Lane.

Andy Polancheck, co-owner of the Broken Top Bottle Shop in Bend, said he hopes to have a three-tap growler-fill station open this week.

"Everyone is doing it," he said. "We are having a bunch of people that are coming in wanting it."

He turns away three or four people each day who w ant growler fills, he said. " We weren't going to d o growlers atfirst because we have our bottle shop and we like to have people buy bottles instead of growlers to go. But, the demand forgrowlers is so large, we decided to give it a try."

Jared Smith,bar manager at Crows Feet Commons, said the new downtown Bend cycling shop located next to Riverfront Plaza opened with the ability to fill growlers.

People hip to the idea of growlers expect to be able to fill, he said, and those who aren't aware need to know about the option.

"I think being able to experience, and bring home a draft beer isa different experience than it is out of a bottle or can," Smith said.

Players Bar 8r Grill and Cascade West Grub & Alehouse, both on Bend's west side, started offering growler fills in the last month. Raganelli's Pizza in Tumalo also began selling growlers and offering fills two months ago.

Beer isn't the only popular beverage getting poured into growlers.

Jamie Danek, co-founder of Bendtea maker Kombucha Mama said 23 locations in Central Oregon fill about 700 growlers per week with Kombucha Mama.

"The amount of g r owlers this town goes through is astounding,"she said,referring t o Kombucha M am a f i l l s.

"Bend's a beer town, and that's the vehicle of choice to put your stuff in."

Sara Wiener, owner of Sara Bella Upcycled, has tapped into the craze, making growler tote bags out of sustainable material. This h oliday season, she said, people are telling Wiener they plan to give growlers in a tote bag as gifts instead of giving wine in a gift

bag.

People aren't into growlers just for taste of the beer, she said, it's also because they're reusable.

Wiener currently sells generic growler bags, along with brand-specific totes for Crux F ermentation P r oject, a n d she's working on prototypes for Boneyard Beer and Kombucha Mama.

"I feel like we're on the cutting edge," she said. "What better place to be than Bend, Oregon, to be on the cutting edge of growler accessories."

Trees

Tips:shoppingfor afir

Continued from G1 Partly as a result of t h i s calendar shift, a third of this year's Christmas tree p urchases will come from a species called "artificial," according to market research from the American Christmas Tree Association.

The corresponding riddle for Christmas tree farmers is how to cultivate a tree that will last from Thanksgiving until after New Year's.

This is where Chastagner's latest research comes in. "It's probably the largest singlefunded Christmas tree project in U.S. history," he said, sitting in his cluttered office. "Some people in the public would ask, 'Why would we spend money on this?' Well, the Christmas tree industry is a $1 billion industry."

The tree trade group estimates that some 15,000 farms and plantations will sell more than 20 million trees this year.

Perhaps a quarter of t hese will come from 10- or 15-acre farms that use basic management techniques and primitive equipment, said Dennis Tompkins, an arborist who edited the American Christmas Tree Journal for almost two decades. The largest and most sophisticated operations will harvest almost a million trees a year from a n 8 , 500-acre plantation and remove them by helicopter.

For 32 years, Chastagner h as conducted much of t h e most important research into Christmas-tree cultivation. He has examined Phytophthora root rot and the Swiss needle cast — both pernicious conifer scourges. And he has carefully analyzed the optimal shape and volume of a C h ristmas tree stand.

The locus ofthese important efforts, it turns out, is a concrete-block o u t b uilding, half-bunkered into a hillock.

Chastagner calls it the Dungeon. "We're standing in an old cistern that was not being used," he said. "One of us talked about putting a racquetball court in here."

Inside the Dungeon stood tables stacked with wire-andwood racks. Each rackheld hundreds of cutconiferbranchesperhaps 5,000 in all — sticking up from their cells like quills in a dry inkwell. The whole open chamber was redolent with the stench of Christmas (or the fra-

grance, if you prefer).

This week's samples of Fraser fir had arrived by express mail from John Frampton, a forestry geneticist at N orth Carolina State University. The broader project involved evaluating the mother trees for growth rate and habit, date of bud break, disease resistance and consumer preference.

Today's experiment, however, was so particular as to seem monomaniacal. A solitary technician, Kathy Riley, was counting the needles that fell offeach and every branch in the giant room.

Riley plucked an 8 - inchlong sample from the r ack and rubbed her bare fingers up and down the stems from the last two years' worth of growth. Her palms were coated in resin.

Then, like a bingo caller, she intoned a pair of n umbers: a percentage estimate of the needles that had ended up on the floor, based on a scale from one to seven. A data entry assistant plugged these numbers into a spreadsheet that appeared awesome in its size and breathtaking in it s tedium.

Chastagner pointed to a few

The managed Christmas tree plantations of the 1950s and '60s weren't necessarily raising showpieces, either. A 1964 Cornell University survey found that more than half the plantation-grown t r ees were unsalable.

Many trees and seed cones were leftovers from t i mber stands. There, lumber compa-

"Also some w i nners, some with almost no needle loss."

Both t y pe s o f sa m p les were useful. What the RNA detectives hoped to find was the single nucleotide polymorphism, or the variation, that controlled needle drop.

One plant would have it and another wouldn't. Scientists could employ this information to develop a genomic field test.

Then cone collectors in wild forests or m a naged stands might quickly screen a tree before harvestingseed stock to sell to Christmas tree growers.

Ultimately, breeders could try to nurture a whole seed orchard o f s u p erior t r ees.

But those maturing p lants wouldn't form cones and set seed for 30 years, Chastagner said. As if the run-up to Christmas weren't l on g e n ough already.

Leftovers turned tradition Until the 1970s, the Christmas tree found its way into the American household in a haphazard fashion, Tompkins said. "Wild culture," he added, was the rule. Enterprising loggers would trek into the forests and haul to market whatever they found. On the Olympic Peninsula i n Wa s h ington, this usually meant a roughand-ready Douglas fir. T he Catskills or Nova Scotia might yield spruce or balsam fir.

Yet the newly cleared woods did not grow back the same way. In the Pacific Northwest, Chastagner said, previously shaded u n derstory p l a n ts like salal an d h u ckleberry celebrated their C h r i stmas

good fortune by "going crazy," and evergreens that made it through the tangle developed

trunks with few of the lateral branches that produce knots in boards. Where to hang all the Christmas balls remained a mystery beyond the scope of science.

A fine place to witness how the Christmas tree has evolved is Ken and JoAnn Scholz's Snowshoe Evergreen. The 350acre operation is just down the road from Chastagner'soffice, and he drove over in a university-issue Chevy Blazer.

When the couple started in the business 40 years ago, Ken Scholz, 67, said: "You bought seed from whoever the hell would sell it to you. It was all in wild collections."

The couple continues to operate a choose-and-cut lot and sells other trees to retailers.

But Scholz does most of his volume as a contract seedling grower.

Nowadays, Christmas tree farmers typically choose seed from a specialist, who ships it directly to a forestry corporation like Weyerhaeuser. Here, the conifers will germinate into inch-tall plants called plugs.

Scholz and his team of 18 workers then transplant the finger-high conifers on their farm. A few years later, Snowshoe will deliver them to a distant plantation, where they will reach maturity. The whole rotation, from seed to Christmas tree stand, may take eight to 12 years.

The volume is incredible.

"Each of these beds has 17,000 or 18,000 plants," Scholz said — nothing special, he insisted. He pointed to the fields he stocked a month ago, in rows that stretch a q u arter-mile.

"Let's put it this way: we just put in 1.7 million."

Up close, the grid of little green twigs had the immaculatelyordered appearance of needlepoint. One advanced North Carolina grower ("I'd rather not tell you who," Scholz

said) had supplied him with a special selection of Fraser fir.

Check out the tops, he said, and you'll see a whorl of five buds instead of the typicalthree or four. In a year, he might lift the entire planting, bed by bed, sort and gradethe seedlings, and re-transplant them with a more generous spacing.

Before then, he'll fumigate the ground with a mix of meth-

2013 DODGE DART

Compact ma es impressive return be from door faults

Dodge Dart.

For those over 40 y ears old, the name is a f amiliar one. From 1960 through 1976, Dodge sold more than 3 million Darts, from bare-bones commuter cars and convertibles to the fire-breathing Dart S winger, w i t h

i t s powerful V-8 engine.

The name returns for 2013 on a new compact sedan, Dodge's first since the Neon's demise seven years ago — and its importance can't be overstated.

The compact car segment is the largest one in the United States, with 15 percent of new car registrations in 2011. Their sales jumped 16 percent that year in an industry that was up 11 percent.

More importantly, the 2013 Dodge Dart is the first vehicle collaboration between Chrysler and Fiat — w h ich now owns 58 percent of Chrysler and has assumed management control.

If the Dart is any indication of what's to come, then this is one merger that will work out well indeed. Quite simply, the 2013 is a compelling compact sedan and among the top in a field of interesting compacts.

It starts w it h t h e D a r t 's genetics. The car rides a platform adapted from the Alfa Romeo Giulietta. For the Dart, engineers tailored the car by letting out the seams a few inchesforcorn-fed Americans.

They lengthened the platform by 12 inches and widened it almost two inches, which makes the Dart one of the larger compacts in its class, with bountiful interior space front and rear, along with a commodious trunk.

The extra size doesn't hurt the styling either, which is a conservative take on the nor-

mally aggressive Dodge look.

The front end is as adventurous as it gets, with the rest of the car seeming to be a modest update of the Neon. Out back, an optional full-width tail lamp with 152 LEDs dist inctively accents the d u al exhausts mounted in the rear fascia. With the lighting option, there's no mistaking this car for anything other than the Charger's kid brother.

But the good news continues inside. The interior has satisfyingly soft materials in most places you're likely to touch.

The test car, dressed in Limited trim, featured soft leather trim on the seats, which were not only s urprisingly comfortable and supportive, but featured seat h eaters. Leg room was morethan sufficient throughout the cabin.

Thoughtful touches abound.

The glove box is large enough to hold an iPad. The center console features auxiliary jacks for

help.

Normally, when the engine is shut off and the key removed, the radio and other accessories willturn off when the door is opened. Now, when I open the driver's door from the inside, the accessories will not turn off. It has gotten progressively worse in the past few months. The passenger door always turns things off. Could the remote locking and the accessories issues be related? Is there a switch or connector inside the driver side door that could be causing the issue?

• I'm glad you included • the fact that the passenger door "always turns things off." That's a key piece of information. The VSM (vehicle security module) located in the passenger footwell individually controls the driver and passenger door lock/unlock relay. This module or its connections may be at fault.

The other possible source of trouble is the driver door switch and/or the driver door ajar switch, both l o cated inside the driver's door. I'd suggest an initial scan test looking for possible B-series

The 2013 Dodge Dart is based on the Alfa Romeo Giulietta, which Chrysler-owner Fiat sells outside the United States.

How's that for choice?

The base engine is rated But th e m os t i m p ortant by the EPA at 25 mpg city, choice is w hat l ies behind 36 highway with the manual Dodge's signature cross-hair transmission. That drops to grille. SE, SXT, Rallye and 24 and 34 with the six-speed Limited models have a new automatic. Opt for the turbo 160-horsepower 2.0-1iter engine. A 160-horsepower turbocharged an d i n t ercooled 1.4-liter MultiAir Turbo fourcylinder engine is a $ 1,300 option on SXT, Rallye and L imited models. While t h e two engines sharethe same horsepower rating, they differ intorque. The base four has 145 foot-pounds of torque, while the optional turbo has 184 foot-pounds.

Come summer 2013, Dodge will offer an R/T model, with a new 184 horsepower 2.4-liter four-cylinderengine.

These engines canbe paired with one of three transmissions: a s i x-speed manual, a six-speed automatic o r , when the 1.4-liter turbo is ordered, asix-speed dual-clutch transmission.

It was made better by the sexy-sounding exhaust note.

It will easily seduce you, as will its appealing price.

If you're looking for a compact, be it in the price range or severalthousand dollars more, you owe it to yourself to test drive the Dart before deciding on something else.

Why? Because when itcomes to building an impressive compact car, Dodge has scored a bulls-eye with the Dart.

It's that good.

(body control module) fault codes.

I have a 1996 CadilQ•• lac Deville with 81,200 miles on it. I have a constant problem with the theft deterrent system disabling the

starting of the car. Failure to start after the "three minute program" is common, and it can be several hours or even several days before the car will start. I have been left stalled in a parking lot and I had to have the vehicle towed once — only to have it start almost immediately after being towed to my driveway. I have contactedseveral dealers and their suggestions range from replacing the key cylinder, replacing the key — I seriously doubt the chip is the problem — and even installing a new vehicle computer.

My question: Is there a code toresetthe computer so that the vehicle will start after being disabled by the theft deterrent system'? Is there a code to delete the theft deterrent system from the vehicle?

Is there some other way to correct this system?

There's no reset code • and no way to delete the anti-theft system from the vehicle. But there is a very strong possibility of a DTC fault code stored in the vehicle's powertrain control mod-

ule (PCM) or body control module (BCM). If you haven't had the dealer perform a scan of these modules, that should be your first step. A 2700-series instrument panel DTC fault code could point to the specific problem — which may well be a faulty chip on the ignition key. Do you have a spare?
