DA hires 2 prosecutors, from the one of whom he’d fired start

Crime ring suspected as credit card fraud hits Bend

Deschutes County District Attorney Patrick Flaherty announced Monday he was appointing two new prosecutors to his office, including one he fired just over six months ago.

In a news release, Flaherty said he was hiring former deputy district attorney Mary Anderson and Bend-based attorney Lillah McBride, both of whom are expected to begin in August.

Presumably, the hires are at least part of a plan to fill the void left by attorneys Traci Anderson and Pat Hor-

Jacoby Ellsbury as a Little Leaguer

The Bend Police Department is investigating fraudulent credit card charges made in targeted cities around the nation that are using Oregonians’ information.

“We’ve noticed an increase of credit and debit card theft,” Bend Police Sgt. Dan Richie said.

“Within the last two weeks we’ve seen dozens.”

Officials are looking for similarities among the cases.

“We’re investigating to see how these numbers are being compromised,” Richie said.

“It’s possible that it’s occurring electronically.”

He said it appears a crime ring is involved.

Advancements in technology create sophisticated crooks, making law enforcement investigations more challenging. “We’re in ‘cyberworld’ now,” Richie said.

“A lot of these criminals are doing their work at home behind the keyboard. People can hide behind technology.”

Criminals can breach the data through skimming devices attached to gas pumps, ATMs or store registers at the point of sale.

Information can also be tapped via online purchases. Once the information is obtained, it is transferred onto a new card that is used for fraudulent purchases.

Britney Sheehan, media relations manager for Bank of America, recommends customers be vigilant about monitoring their account activity and quickly report fraudulent charges.

Linda Navarro, president and CEO of the Oregon Bankers Association, said there are billions of dollars a year in losses associated with debit and credit card fraud. “A large percentage of this cost is picked up by banks.”

ton, Flaherty’s top two deputies who unexpectedly resigned last month after less than six months on the job.

Flaherty’s announcement comes less than a week after three other deputy district attorneys he fired asked for their jobs back. In exchange for that, they were offering to reduce the amount of money they were seeking in a $22.5 million lawsuit against Flaherty and the county.

It’s unclear how the new hires will affect this proposal. The attorneys representing the three former prosecutors were unavailable for

comment after Flaherty’s afternoon announcement.

But in interviews earlier Monday, both attorneys noted that even if their clients were reinstated, the lawsuit would not be dismissed.

“If they were hired back, their damages would go away, at least a large part of their damages,” said Portlandbased attorney Jody Schneider, who represents one of the three former prosecutors. “It would be a fabulous solution, but we haven’t heard anything yet.”

Curb ramp push: 200 this year Bend’s 2014 deadline looms, and with money tight, meeting it is looking more unlikely Bend’s curb ramps 2001 • Four Bend residents file a complaint with the U.S. Department of Justice that Bend isn’t compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act.

2004 • A settlement caps a DOJ investigation, giving Bend 10 years to fix buildings, sidewalks and curb ramps.

2007 • City engineers find that many curb ramps don’t meet ADA requirements. Layoffs put some of the survey work on hold, and cut short the city’s outreach and education programs.

2009 • February: Facing a tight budget, Bend considers renegotiating its settlement with the DOJ in hopes of getting an extension.

City of Bend employee Ty Combs uses a smoothing tool to cut the outline of a foot pad while working with a crew to build a curb at the roundabout at Mt. Washington and Century drives in Bend on Monday.

By Sheila G. Miller The Bulletin

The summer construction season is in full swing, but in Bend much of the action is beside the road, not in it. The city hopes to rebuild as many as 200 sidewalk curb ramps before the year is out, part of a push to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Bend is under a federal order to bring all curb ramps into ADA compliance. The U.S. Department of Justice made that rul-

ing in 2004, ordering the curb ramp redo to be completed by 2014. The ruling stemmed from a 2001 compliant by four Bend residents, who said the city’s buildings, curb ramps and sidewalks did not meet ADA standards.

The city has completed work on the buildings. But with 6,000 curb ramps in Bend, there’s still a lot of work to be done.

Bend Street Division Manager Hardy Hanson said most of the curb ramps cur-

rently being redone are between 6 and 8 years old.

Since the start of construction season, the city has fixed between 80 and 90 curb ramps. Hanson anticipates construction will be completed on 200 of them before winter.

“We’ve done a lot of sidewalk work,” he said. “They’ve been bigger projects. One ramp is not exactly like another ramp.

We’ve poured a lot more cement than last year.”

See Ramps / A5

• March: The DOJ denies the city’s alternate plan, citing issues with the 2011 deadline and the fact that city officials didn’t know how many ramps need to be upgraded.

• September: City officials complete an inventory of noncompliant curb ramps, finding nearly 90 percent not in compliance.

2014 • The city’s current deadline to fix all of its buildings, sidewalks, parking spaces and curb ramps.

Severe drought spreads its pain across 14 states

By Kim Severson and Kirk Johnson New York Times News Service

COLQUITT, Ga. — The heat and the drought are so bad in this southwest corner of Georgia that hogs can

barely eat. Corn, a lucrative crop with a notorious thirst, is burning up in fields. Cotton plants are too weak to punch through soil so dry it might as well be pavement.

Today’s savings app After debit-fee hubbub, what about credit cards? grew out of an ’80s mini-computer

By David Lazarus Los Angeles Times

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Talk about savings.

Back in 1987, when cellphones were the size and heft of a solid brick, a Sacramento software designer created the MoneyDiary. It was a pocket-sized, hand-held computer device for tracking your spending. Sold in local electronics stores, it cost $199.

Today, the same MoneyDiary is an iPhone app downloaded from the palm of your hand.

Cost? 99 cents.

Trinidad Esquivel, who created both versions, says his first MoneyDiary was “ahead of its time in the ’80s. People didn’t realize a computer could be that small.” Especially when the cellphone they were holding was so big.

Fast-forward about 25 years.

Esquivel, 58, spent about three months writing the computer code for his iPhone app.

Launched on iTunes in April, it lets you track your spending by any category you choose: credit cards, groceries, mortgage payments, pets, health expenses, you name it. From your phone, you can tally and track your spending, and transmit it to a spreadsheet if you want.

As such, it’s one of thousands of budget-minded websites and online tools aimed at helping folks track their spending.

And with more than 425,000 iPhone apps competing for downloads, it’s not likely that MoneyDiary will become a hot seller. In the iPhone “Managing Money” category alone, it’s got plenty of competitors. Some are pricier, such as PocketMoney ($4.99) or PageOnce ($12.99).

Others are more comprehensive (and free), such as Mint.com’s Personal Finance app.

Personal finance experts say tracking your spending is the first step to financial stability.

“I don’t care if it’s a Big Chief paper tablet or a fancy software program. Whatever works for the individual and will be consistently used will do the trick,” said Gail Cunningham, spokeswoman for the National Foundation for Credit Counseling.

As for the MoneyDiary, “I’d say it’s 99 cents well spent.”

That’s what Esquivel is hoping, too. But it’s not likely his MoneyDiary app will make him rich. For every 99-cent download, he gets about 70 cents.

Esquivel, who’s also created a “RealQuote” loan calculator and the MoneyDiary for Palm users, says he got the idea back in the ’80s when he was traveling the country as a mainframe computer consultant.

He tallied all his business expenses: hotel rooms, meals, car rentals on paper, then would

“I don’t care if it’s a Big Chief paper tablet or a fancy software program. Whatever works for the individual and will be consistently used will do the trick.”

— Gail Cunningham, National Foundation for Credit Counseling deliver the lists to his CPA each year for tax expenses. “One year I told her, ‘I’m gonna have that on a computer one day.’”

Eventually, he did. He spent “tens of thousands” to design the first “MoneyDiary” hardware/software package for a Tandy PC-6, one of the early hand-held computers. Encased in a tiny black binder with its own user manual, the Tandy package sold for about $200, mostly in local World Electronics stores.

As the MoneyDiary’s inventor, Esquivel said he’s “never used any other accounting software in 25 years,” and likes it because he can create unlimited categories, from car repair bills to rental property expenses to hobbies. Some parents, he says, even create children’s categories to track what they’re spending on their kids’ allowances or college costs.

“It’s a tool so you can see where your money is going. You don’t have to know accounting terminology; just create categories that (fit) your life. … It makes it real simple.”

Consumers soon to get free credit score after loan denial

By Becky Yerak Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO — Consumers who are denied credit or whose existing loan terms become less favorable soon will be able to get free credit scores under new rules from the Federal Reserve Board and Federal Trade Commission.

On Wednesday, as part of the recently enacted Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform & Consumer Protection Act, the two regulators issued final rules related to new credit-score disclosures.

Effective July 21, if a credit score is used to set certain credit terms, or to deny or revoke credit or change existing terms, then banks and others will be required to disclose credit scores and related information to consumers.

Besides the consumer’s credit score, the lender also must disclose the range of possible scores under the model used to generate the score; the date on which the

score was created; the name of the consumer reporting agency or entity that provided the score; and up to four key factors that hurt the credit score, or up to five factors if the number of inquiries made into that consumer’s credit report is a key factor. Numerous inquiries into a consumer’s credit report can suggest that the consumer has been out shopping for credit and might be financially stressed.

Credit scores are often used by lenders to set or adjust loan terms, such as interest rates charged, and can change over time to reflect changes in a borrower’s financial history.

The Fed has estimated that it would take lenders, on average, two business days to update their systems to comply with the new requirements, although some businesses affected said it could take weeks or longer.

The public comment period to the proposed rule changes closed on April 14.

Are high credit card fees pricing plastic out of the market?

Some businesses are putting the kibosh on credit cards to avoid paying processing fees that run about 2 percent of the transaction amount. In other words, every time you buy something for $100 with plastic, it costs the merchant nearly $2 in processing fees.

Multiply that by hundreds or even thousands of daily transactions, and that can add up to some serious coin. Typically, those costs are passed along to customers in the form of higher prices.

The financial services giant John Hancock is the latest to slam the door on credit cards, telling customers it will no longer accept payments via plastic for long-term-care insurance premiums.

“The decision to discontinue this option is due to the high fees associated with this billing method,” the company said in a recent letter to ratepayers. Customers were advised to make payments either by check or by automatic deductions from their checking accounts.

Susan Shershow, 68, of West Los Angeles, said that although she’s been happy making credit card payments for her John Hancock premiums, it won’t be a problem to switch to paying by check.

“I worry more about all the people who need to charge it and then pay it out over time,” she said. “I know a lot of people like that, and it’s going to be much harder for them.”

The processing fees in question are known as interchange fees, and they’re a major money spinner for card issuers. Merchants and consumer groups have long criticized the fees for

Paying with plastic could get tougher as some businesses aren’t taking credit cards to avoid paying processing fees that run about 2 percent of the transaction amount. being unreasonable and out of proportion with the actual cost of handling transactions.

Banks counter that they need such fees to maintain the integrity of their computer networks as well as to fund anti-fraud efforts.

Most of the attention in recent months has been focused on fees for processing debit cards.

Last month, the Federal Reserve capped the base fee that can be charged at 21 cents per transaction, on average — well below the current average of 44 cents but higher than an originally proposed 12-cent cap.

The Fed determined that a 21-cent fee (plus a little extra for fraud protection) is a “reasonable and proportional” price for moving money in the digital age. The new limit takes effect Oct. 21.

Credit card fees, meanwhile, have largely gotten a pass from federal authorities, although financial reforms signed into law in 2009 required that the Government Accountability Office look into how these fees affect consumers.

A subsequent report concluded that “consumers who do not use credit cards may be paying higher prices for goods and service, as merchants pass on their increasing card acceptance costs to all of their customers.”

It also found that the benefits to merchants of accepting credit cards — convenience, increased sales — can be offset by higher costs.

“Authorities in more than 30 countries have taken or are considering taking actions to address such fees and other card network practices,” the report noted.

David Robertson is publisher of the Nilson Report, an influential trade journal covering the credit- and debit-card industry.

He said it’s not surprising that some businesses, especially those that rely on recurring payments from customers, would want to turn away from credit cards.

“This allows them to cut costs and improve their bottom line,” Robertson said.

T S Murdoch papers under even more fire Downing Street, royal family were among targets, fresh reports say

By Cassandra Vinograd and Raphael G. Satter The Associated Press

LONDON — Rupert Murdoch’s media empire was besieged Monday by accusations that two more of his British newspapers engaged in hacking, deception and privacy violations that included accessing former Prime Minister Gordon Brown’s bank account information and stealing the medical records of his seriously ill baby son.

His reporters were also accused of paying Queen Elizabeth II’s bodyguards for secret information about the monarch, potentially jeopardizing her safety.

If proven, the charges by rival newspapers would dramatically increase the pressure on top Murdoch executives so far largely insulated from the scandal.

The public outrage began a week ago over wrongdoing at the Murdoch-owned best-selling tabloid News of the World. It has since disrupted the media titan’s plans to take over highly profitable satellite broadcaster British Sky Broadcasting and slashed billions off the value of his global conglomerate News Corp.

In Britain, the scandal has cast a harsh light on the unparalleled political influence of Murdoch’s collection of newspapers and is taking an increasing toll on Prime Minister David Cameron.

The conservative leader’s former communications chief, Andy Coulson, was arrested last week in connection with alleged payoffs to police when he was editor of News of the World.

Protesters storm U.S. Embassy in Syria

By Liz Sly and Joby Warrick The Washington Post

DAMASCUS, Syria — Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Syrian President Bashar alAssad has lost the legitimacy to rule after pro-government demonstrators stormed the U.S. Embassy in Damascus on Monday in what U.S. officials described as an orchestrated attack.

Regime supporters hurled rocks, smashed windows and tore down the American flag at the embassy, triggering the strongest U.S. condemnation yet of the Syrian government.

Clinton suggested that the United States is contemplating the prospect of a post-Assad future in Syria nearly four months into a brutal government crackdown on pro-democracy activists inspired by the revolts in Egypt and Tunisia.

“From our perspective, he has lost legitimacy,” she said, marking the first time the United States has called into question the validity of the Syrian president.

Syrian officials would be mistaken, she said, in concluding that repeated U.S. calls for democratic reforms in Syria signaled a desire to see Assad continue his rule — a conclusion many Syrians have reached.

“President Assad is not indispensable, and we have absolutely nothing invested in him remaining in power,” she told reporters at the State Department.

But although no one was injured, the embassy attack highlighted the vulnerability of American diplomats in the Syrian capital as well as the limits of U.S. statecraft at a time when tensions are soaring between the two countries over Syria’s treatment of protesters pressing for regime change.

ing, a final decision on the $12 billion BSkyB takeover was delayed after Murdoch withdrew a promise to spin off news channel Sky News. It was seen as a tactical move that forced the British government to refer the bid to authorities charged with enforcing anti-monopoly laws, delaying any decision for months.

Analysts said Murdoch’s move amounts to a favor for Cameron, sparing the prime minister the possibility of an embarrassing defeat in the House of Commons.

The takeover will be spared scrutiny during a period of onceunimaginable public criticism of Murdoch’s British operation, News International, fueled by a relentless stream of new allegations of wrongdoing at its properties.

London’s Evening Standard newspaper reported that corrupt royal protection officers sold personal details about Queen Elizabeth II — including phone numbers and tips about her movements and staff — to journalists working for the Murdoch tabloid News of the World, raising questions over a breach in national security.

The scandal spread beyond the now-defunct tabloid, with British media reporting Monday that Brown was one of thousands whose privacy was breached by News International papers, saying that his personal details — including his bank account and his son’s medical records — had been stolen by people working for the Sun and the Sunday Times. None of the media cited sources.

Frustrated Panetta says Iraq needs to decide on U.S. troops

By Elisabeth Bumiller New York Times News Service

BAGHDAD — Defense Secretary Leon Panetta pressed Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki of Iraq on Monday to tell the United States whether he wanted some U.S. troops to remain in Iraq into 2012. He said that time was running out and that the U.S. military needed to know.

“Do they want us to stay, don’t they want us to stay?”

Panetta told a gathering of U.S. troops, expressing exasperation with the Iraqi government and pushing alMaliki to name defense and interior ministers, two key government appointments.

“Damn it, make a decision,” Panetta concluded.

Making his first visit to Iraq as defense secretary, Panetta met with al-Maliki and the Iraqi president, Jalal Talabani. According to Douglas Wilson, a Pentagon spokesman, Panetta told them that any request for an extended U.S. troop presence in Iraq “needs to be made sooner rather than later.”

In the same meetings, he pressed them to name an Iraqi defense minister and an interior minister — crucial posts that have been vacant for more than a year — as a way to accelerate a decision on U.S. troops.

A statement released by al-Maliki’s office said that the Iraqi military had “growing capabilities” and was ready to take on “any target that created a threat to the country’s security and stability.”

President Barack Obama, leaving a news conference Monday, declared he would not sign a “stopgap” measure to avert a federal default, and he challenged Republicans to “eat your peas” by supporting a large deficit-reduction deal.

Budget talks take on testy air

By Mark Landler and Carl Hulse New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — Even before they gathered around a long table in the Cabinet Room for another round of budget negotiations on Monday, President Barack Obama and Republican leaders began taking shots at each other.

Obama declared at a news conference that he would not sign a “stopgap” measure to avert a federal default, and he challenged Republicans to “eat your peas” by supporting a large deficit-reduction deal.

Speaker John Boehner countered that Republicans would not back a package with any tax revenues, and said that even agreeing to an increase in the debt limit was a big concession.

Once the private meeting actually started, the fireworks

Obama seeks centrist banner WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama made no apparent headway Monday in his effort to forge a crisis-averting budget deal, but he put on full display his effort to position himself as a pragmatic centrist willing to confront both parties and address intractable problems.

At a news conference preceding the latest round of talks with Republican and Democratic congressional leaders, Obama said he would not accept a temporary agreement to kick the problem down the road a few weeks or months. He said he was willing to take the heat from his own party to move beyond entrenched ideological positions and that Republicans should do the same. And he continued to insist on “the biggest deal possible,” saying that now is the best opportunity for the nation to address its longterm fiscal challenges.

Republicans dismissed his performance as political theater. But Obama’s remarks appeared to be aimed at independent voters as well as at congressional leaders, and stood in contrast to the Republican focus on the party’s conservative base, both in the budget showdown and in presidential politics.

Obama’s remarks were

subsided, Democratic and Republican officials briefed on the talks said, though if anything, the debate over specific policy choices served only to reinforce the chasm between the two sides. The officials described a cordial, though intense, debate in which Obama and the eight leaders from both parties delved deeply into the nitty-gritty.

Obama, after restating his pitch for a far-reaching deal that could produce savings of $4 trillion or so over a decade, turned the floor over to the House majority leader, Rep. Eric Cantor of Virginia. Cantor, Democratic officials said, presented a Republican proposal for a more modest agreement that drew heavily on earlier negotiations steered by Vice President Joe Biden.

Those talks had led to proposals for nearly $1.2 trillion among the clearest expressions yet of a repositioning effort that has been under way since November’s elections, when Republicans captured the House and made inroads in the Senate.

Seeking to shed the image of big-government liberal that Republicans used effectively against him last year, he has made or offered policy compromises on an array of issues and cast himself in the role of the adult referee for both parties’ gamesmanship, or the parent of stubborn children.

“If we think it’s hard now, imagine how these guys are going to be thinking six months from now in the middle of election season where they’re all up,” he said. “It’s not going to get easier. It’s going to get harder. So we might as well do it now — pull off the Band-Aid, eat our peas.”

He added, “We keep on talking about this stuff and we have these high-minded pronouncements about how we’ve got to get control of the deficit and how we owe it to our children and our grandchildren. Well, let’s step up. Let’s do it. I’m prepared to do it. I’m prepared to take on significant heat from my party to get something done. And I expect the other side should be willing to do the same thing.”

in federal agency cuts, with another $300 billion coming from programs like agriculture subsidies and federal pension programs. More than $350 billion would also come from the federal Medicare and Medicaid health programs.

Much of that would come from Medicare, where Republicans proposed to squeeze $246 billion in savings by reductions in payments for home health care, as well as increasing copayments for laboratory services. Democrats at the session rejected the Medicare proposal, saying they would not back reductions in benefits to obtain merely a midrange budget agreement.

Based on the most aggressive estimates of cuts that might find bipartisan support, a senior Democratic official said, this Republican plan would produce savings of somewhat more than $1.5 trillion, well short of the $2.4 trillion that Republicans say is needed to justify an increase in the debt ceiling until February 2013.

And lacking any tax-related measures, Rep. Steny Hoyer of Maryland, the House minority whip, told the group he was not certain he could corral a single Democratic vote for the plan, officials said.

Hoyer’s pessimism was telling, Democratic officials said, be-

cause he had played a key role in rounding up Democratic support for previous budget deals. It suggested that Democrats, too, were retrenching on their willingness to compromise on entitlements to produce a big agreement.

The president, officials said, argued that the Republican proposal did not add up arithmetically or politically. He told the leaders of both parties to return to their members and see if they could revive support for a larger deal, where the sacrifices would be even harder but the payoff, he contended, would be a historic remedy to the nation’s perilous finances.

As these talks head into a critical phase, Obama has steadily ratcheted up the pressure on Congress, saying that Republicans and Democrats must both accept painful compromises to get a deal done. At his news conference, he said, “If the basic proposition is ‘It’s my way or the highway,’ we’re probably not going to get something done because we’ve got divided government.”

Two-year-old Aden Salaad looks up toward his mother as he bathes in a tub Monday at a Doctors Without Borders hospital outside Dadaab, Kenya. U.N. refugee chief Antonio Guterres said Sunday that drought-ridden Somalia is the “worst humanitarian disaster” in the world, after meeting with refugees who endured unspeakable hardship to reach the camp.

No accord on Mideast talks The Associated Press WASHINGTON — The United States and its partners in the international diplomatic “quartet” on the Middle East failed on Monday to reach agreement on how to restart Israeli-Palestinian peace talks, dealing a blow to urgent efforts to avert a looming confrontation at the United Nations over recognizing Palestine as an independent nation.

A senior U.S. official said a Monday night meeting between Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, E.U. foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton and Rus-

sian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov was unable to produce a unified statement on how to proceed. Such a statement had been a modest goal of the meeting.

The official said that significant gaps are still impeding progress among both the mediators and the parties themselves and that “much more work” needs to be done before the quartet can issue a call to re-launch negotiations that stalled last September.

The official spoke on condition of anonymity to discuss the private working dinner among the quartet principals at the State Department.

Buster Haddock, a Randolph County agriculture and natural resources extension agent, stands in an underdeveloped cotton field that has been parched by a drought near Cuthbert, Ga. A huge swath of the nation is suffering under a prolonged drought that has ravaged crops and carved out a new and troublesome economic landscape.

Drought Continued from A1 “There is no description for what we’ve been through since we started planting corn in March.”

The pain has spread across 14 states, from Florida, where severe water restrictions are in place, to Arizona, where ranchers could be forced to sell off entire herds of cattle because they simply can’t feed them.

In Texas, where the drought is the worst, virtually no part of the state has been untouched. City dwellers and ranchers have been tormented by excessive heat and high winds. As they have been in the Southwest, wildfires are chewing through millions of acres.

Last month, the U.S. Department of Agriculture designated all 254 counties in Texas natural-disaster areas.

More than 30 percent of the state’s wheat fields might be lost, adding pressure to a crop in short supply globally.

Even if weather patterns shift and relief-giving rain comes, losses will surely head past $3 billion in that state alone, Texas agricultural officials said.

Super drought Most troubling is that the drought, which could go down as one of the nation’s worst, has come on extra hot and extra early.

It has its roots in 2010 and continued through the winter. The five months from this February to June, for example, were so dry that they shattered a Texas record set in 1917, said Don Conlee, the acting state climatologist.

Oklahoma has had only 28 percent of its normal summer rainfall and the heat has blasted past 90 degrees for a month.

“We’ve had a two- or threeweek start on what is likely to be a disastrous summer,” said Kevin Kloesel, director of the Oklahoma Climatological Survey.

The question, of course, becomes why. In a spring and summer in which weather news has been dominated by epic floods and tornadoes, it is hard to imagine that nearly a third of the country is facing an equally daunting but very different kind of natural disaster.

From a meteorological standpoint, the answer is fairly simple. “A strong La Niña shut off the southern pipeline of moisture,” said David Miskus, who monitors drought for the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration.

The weather pattern called La Niña is an abnormal cooling of Pacific waters. It usually follows El Niño, which is an abnormal warming of those same waters.

Although a newly released forecast from the National Weather Service’s Climate Prediction Center suggests this dangerous weather pattern could revive in the fall, many in the parched regions find themselves in the unlikely position of hoping for a season of heavy tropical storms in the Southeast and drenching monsoons in the Southwest.

Climatologists say the great

Haddock holds an inadequately pollinated ear of dent corn in Georgia. One Georgia farmer, Mike Newberry, says, “There is no description for what we’ve been through since we started planting corn in March.” drought of 2011 is starting to look a lot like the one that hit the nation in the early to mid-1950s.

That, too, dried a broad swath of the southern tier of states into leather and remains a record breaker.

But this time things are different in the drought belt.

With states and municipalities strapped for cash and unemployment still high, the stress on the land and the people who rely on it for a living is being amplified by political and economic forces, state and local officials say.

As a result, this drought is likely to have the cultural impact of the great 1930s drought, which hammered an already weakened nation.

“In the ’30s, you had the Depression and everything that happened with that, and drought on top,” said Donald Wilhite, director of the school of natural resources at the University of Nebraska in Lincoln and former director of the National Drought Mitigation Center. “The combination of those two things was devastating.”

Although today’s economy is not as bad, many Americans ground down by prolonged economic insecurity have little wiggle room to handle the effects of a prolonged drought. Government agencies are in the same boat.

“Because we overspent, the Legislature overspent, we’ve been cut back and then the drought comes along and we don’t have the resources and federal government doesn’t, and so we just tighten our belt and go on,” said Donald Butler, the director of the Arizona Depart-

ment of Agriculture.

The drought is having some odd effects, economically and otherwise.

“One of the biggest impacts of the drought is going to be the shrinking of the cattle herd in the United States,” said Bruce Babcock, an agricultural economist at Iowa State University in Ames. And that will have a paradoxical but profound impact on the price of a steak.

Ranchers whose grass was killed by drought cannot afford to sustain cattle with hay or other feed, which is also climbing in price. Their response will most likely be to get rid of animals.

That glut of beef would lower prices temporarily.

But America’s cattle supply will ultimately be lower at a time when the global supply is already low, resulting potentially in much higher prices in the future.

Other worries In this corner of Georgia, where temperatures have been over 100 and rainfall has been off by more than half, fish and wildlife officials are worried over the health of the shinyrayed pocketbook and the oval pigtoe mussels, both freshwater species on the endangered species list.

The mussels live in Spring Creek, which is dangerously low and borders Terry Pickle’s 2,000acre farm here. He pulls his irrigation from wells, which tie into the water system of which Spring Creek is a part.

Whether nature or agriculture is to blame remains a debate in a state that for 20 years has been embroiled in a water war with Alabama and Florida. Meanwhile, the city of Colquitt has allowed the state to drill a special well to pump water back into the creek to save the mussels from extinction.

Most farmers here are much more worried about the crops than the mussels. With cotton and corn prices high, they had high hopes for the season.

But many have had to replant

fields several times to get even one crop to survive. Others, like Pickle, have relied on irrigation so expensive that it threatens to eat into any profits.

The water is free, but the system used to pull it from the ground runs on diesel fuel. His bill for May and June was an unheard of $88,442. Thousands of small stories like that will all contribute to the ultimate financial impact of the drought, which will not be known until it is over.

And no one knows when that will be.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Farm Service Agency has already provided more than $75 million in assistance to ranchers nationwide, with most of it going to Texas, New Mexico and Florida. An additional $62 million in crop insurance indemnities have already been provided to help other producers.

Economists say that adding up the effects of drought is far more complicated than, say those of a hurricane or tornado, which destroys structures that have a set value.

With drought, a shattered wheat or corn crop is a loss to one farmer, and it has a specific price tag. But all those individual losses punch a hole in the food supply and drive prices up. That is good news for a farmer who manages to get a crop in. The final net costs down the line are thus dispersed, and mostly passed along.

“The biggest losers are consumers,” said Michael Roberts, an associate professor of agricultural and resource economics Carolina State University in Raleigh, N.C. “We could all pay pennies more for bread or meat.”

Vaccination ruse used by CIA The race to construct in pursuit of Osama bin Laden a robot more like us

By Mark Mazzetti New York Times News Service

WASHINGTON — In the months before Osama bin Laden was killed, the Central Intelligence Agency ran a phony vaccination program in Abbottabad, Pakistan, as a ruse to obtain DNA evidence from members of bin Laden’s family thought to be holed up in an expansive compound there, according to a U.S. official.

The vaccination program was set up as the CIA was struggling to learn whether bin Laden was hiding in the compound and adds a new twist to the months of spy games that preceded the nighttime raid in early May that killed the al-Qaida chief.

It has also aggravated already strained tensions between the U.S. and Pakistan. The operation was run by a Pakistan doctor, Shakil Afridi, whom Pakistani spies have since arrested for his

suspected collaboration with the Americans. Afridi remains in Pakistani custody, the official said.

Getting DNA evidence from the people hiding in the Abbottabad compound would have been a significant coup, because it would have allowed the CIA to match the samples with DNA from other members of the bin Laden family that are on file at the CIA — providing the first hard evidence in years of his whereabouts.

The U.S. official said that the doctor managed to temporarily gain access to the compound, but that he never saw bin Laden and was not successful in getting DNA samples from any bin Laden family members. Obama administration officials have said publicly they were not sure whether bin Laden was in Abbottabad when dozens of Navy SEALs stormed

the house in May. The existence of the vaccination program was first reported by a British newspaper, The Guardian. A CIA spokesman declined to comment.

It is unclear how the CIA first recruited Afridi to work for the U.S. The Guardian reported that he used a team of nurses and other health workers to administer Hepatitis B vaccinations throughout Abbottabad, even starting the program on poor fringes of the town to maintain a low profile.

U.S. officials said that they have seen no hard evidence that Pakistani officials knew that bin Laden was hiding in Abbottabad. However, U.S. intelligence officials said that bin Laden appeared to have been supported for years by militant groups with longstanding ties to Pakistan’s military spy agency.

Front, from left: City of Bend employees Ty Combs, Eric Rockenbach, Jim Hall and Rick Volkman spread concrete poured by Mike’s Mobile Mix Concrete driver Scott Rowney (behind, operating the truck) while building a curb ramp at the Mt. Washington Drive and Century Drive roundabout in Bend on Monday.

Ramps Continued from A1 ADA requirements are very specific. The running slope of the ramp can’t be more than 5 percent, while the horizontal, crossslope of the ramp and landing can’t be more than 2 percent.

If the curb ramp fails to meet those requirements, even by a small amount, it is noncompliant and must be reworked to bring it up to snuff.

“It’s got to be almost flat,” Hanson said. “As you’re walking down the sidewalk, if one side is more than 2 percent higher than the other, it’s out of compliance.

We’re talking about an inch.”

Hanson’s office doesn’t keep exact records of just how off curb ramps are. However, he said, “it’s not like they’re horrifically off.”

For example, one of the curb ramps being replaced at the corner of Southeast 27th Street and Northeast Twin Knolls Drive had a slope that was 3⁄4 of an inch too steep.

“We’ve done 600 or 800 so far and we’ve had to redo a couple, three or four,” Hanson said. “The ones we had to redo, there were myriad issues. Some were mistakes, but some were differences of opinion in how you interpret things.”

The city’s accessibility manager, Susan Duncan, said the city is in its final phase of using $3.2 million in funding set aside for ADA improvements.

That final phase will fix 90 curb ramps scattered around the area that are adjacent to government facilities like parks, gov-

Prosecutors Continued from A1 Jody Vaughn, Brentley Foster and Phil Duong were three of five prosecutors fired by Flaherty after he took over for former District Attorney Mike Dugan.

In their lawsuit against Flaherty, which also names current and former county commissioners, the former prosecutors allege discrimination and unfair labor practices because they claim they were terminated for being part of a union.

Deschutes County has since asked a federal judge to remove

ernment buildings and schools.

According to the 2011-13 city budget, the accessibility construction program will have a budget of about $2.8 million over the coming two years.

That’s not enough to pay for all the needed improvements, though, so Duncan’s been applying for myriad grants.

Thus far, the city’s been awarded about $1 million in grants to continue the work around town.

One of the grants, for about $300,000, paid for engineering work on a stretch of Third Street from Northeast Franklin Avenue to Southeast Murphy Road. The actual construction will cost $2.6 million, and Duncan said she’ll apply for another ODOT grant in hopes of securing that money as well.

Other grants will pay for improvements along Northeast Third Street and new curb ramps and sidewalk near the U.S. Post Office on Northeast Fourth Street.

Duncan said it’s unlikely the work will be completed by 2014.

“It’s hard to say. It depends what funding comes in,” she said. “I don’t know how we can achieve compliance (with current funding issues).”

Barring full compliance by 2014, Duncan said she is working on a transition plan with the DOJ that would allow the city to complete an additional number of curb ramps each year.

For now, though, the city’s working on a variety of the curb ramps this summer.

Each reconstructed ramp costs about $2,000. Some have more issues and require more work, and

the county and its officials from portions of the lawsuit.

Flaherty’s attorneys have also asked the judge to dismiss parts of the case against him.

Mary Anderson and thenChief Deputy District Attorney Darryl Nakahira were the other two prosecutors fired by Flaherty. Neither participated in the legal action against the current district attorney.

Anderson is running a private practice in Bend and performing civil and criminal law. She has spent 13 years working as a prosecutor, mostly in Deschutes County.

Though she did not return a phone call seeking comment

others are straightforward and come in well below that amount.

Among the curb ramps currently being redone are those surrounding the roundabout at Southwest Reed Market Road and Southwest Century Drive.

The original curb ramps have different issues. Some have steep slopes, others have no landings, and still others have steep crossslopes. The original construction was completed by Hap Taylor & Sons, and Hanson said they were likely constructed at least six years ago.

“Years ago, it was an accepted thing,” he said. “Our inspectors inspected basic things like, were they built on 4 inches of gravel? … The intricacies of ADA ramps were not quite there yet.”

Meanwhile, at the corner of Twin Knolls and 27th Street, curb ramps completed by Hooker Creek Construction at least six years ago are being redone.

One has too steep a slope, another has a landing that isn’t flat.

And on Northwest Portland Avenue and Awbrey Road, the curb ramps are so old that Hanson’s not sure who did the original construction. In fact, they’re so old they were built before the Americans with Disabilities Act required curb ramps to meet certain standards.

“Some are more egregious than others,” Hanson said. “I think people tried to do a good job; I think they tried to do it right, but the tolerances were not laid out like they are now.”

Sheila G. Miller can be reached at 541-617-7831 or at smiller@bendbulletin.com.

Monday, she said in a statement she is looking forward to once again working in the Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office and for Flaherty.

“I applied for the position after speaking with Patrick and discussing his vision for the office and his goals for the future,” Anderson said. “Executing his vision and implementing the goals he has set will benefit my community, and I am delighted to have this opportunity.”

Flaherty did not return phone calls for comment Monday.

MENLO PARK, Calif. — The robotics pioneer Rodney Brooks often begins speeches by reaching into his pocket, fiddling with some loose change, finding a quarter, pulling it out and twirling it in his fingers.

The task requires hardly any thought. But as Brooks points out, training a robot to do it is a vastly harder problem for artificial intelligence researchers than IBM’s celebrated victory on “Jeopardy!” this year with a robot named Watson.

Though robots have made great strides in manufacturing, where tasks are repetitive, they are still no match for humans, who can grasp things and move about effortlessly in the physical world.

Designing a robot to mimic the basic capabilities of motion and perception would be revolutionary, researchers say, with applications stretching from care for the elderly to returning overseas manufacturing operations to the U.S. (albeit with fewer workers).

Yet the challenges remain immense, far higher than artificial intelligence hurdles like speaking and hearing.

“All these problems where you want to duplicate something biology does, such as perception, touch, planning or grasping, turn out to be hard in fundamental ways,” said Gary Bradski, a vision specialist at Willow Garage, a robot development company based here in Silicon Valley.

“It’s always surprising, because humans can do so much effortlessly.”

Now the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, or DARPA, the Pentagon office that helped jump-start the first generation of artificial intelligence research in the 1960s, is underwriting three competing efforts to develop robotic arms and hands one-tenth as expensive as today’s systems, which often cost $100,000 or more.

Last month President Barack Obama traveled to Carnegie

“All these problems where you want to duplicate something biology does, such as perception, touch, planning or grasping, turn out to be hard in fundamental ways.”

— Gary Bradski, a vision specialist at Willow Garage, a robot development company

Mellon University in Pittsburgh to unveil a $500 million effort to create advanced robotic technologies needed to help bring manufacturing back to the U.S. But lower-cost computer-controlled mechanical arms and hands are only the first step.

There is still significant debate about how even to begin to design a machine that might be flexible enough to do many of the things humans do: fold laundry, cook or wash dishes.

That will require a breakthrough in software that mimics perception.

‘Brittle’ skills Today’s robots can often do one of these tasks in limited circumstances, but researchers describe their skills as “brittle.”

They fail if the tiniest change is introduced. Moreover, they must be reprogrammed in a cumbersome fashion to do something else.

Many robotics researchers are pursuing a bottom-up approach, hoping that by training robots on one task at a time, they can build a library of tasks that will ultimately make it possible for robots to begin to mimic humans.

Others are skeptical, saying that truly useful machines await an artificial intelligence breakthrough that yields vastly more flexible perception.

The limits of today’s most sophisticated robots can be seen in a towel-folding demonstration that a group of students at the University of California, Berkeley, posted on the Internet last year: In spooky, anthropomorphic fashion, a robot

deftly folds a series of towels, eyeing the corners, smoothing out wrinkles and neatly stacking them in a pile.

It is only when the viewer learns that the video is shown at 50 times normal speed that the meager extent of the robot’s capabilities becomes apparent.

(The students acknowledged this spring that they were only now beginning to tackle the further challenges of folding shirts and socks.)

Even the most ambitious and expensive robot arm research has not yet yielded impressive results.

Recently at an SRI International laboratory here, two Stanford University graduate students, John Ulmen and Dan Aukes, put the finishing touches on a significant step toward human capabilities: a four-finger hand that will grasp with a human’s precise sense of touch.

Each three-jointed finger is made in a single manufacturing step by a three-dimensional printer and is then covered with “skin” derived from the same material used to make the touch-sensitive displays on smartphones.

“Part of what we’re riding on is there has been a very strong push for tactile displays because of smartphones,” said Pablo Garcia, an SRI robot designer who is leading the design of the project, along with Robert Bolles, an artificial intelligence researcher.

“We’ve taken advantage of these technologies,” Garcia went on, “and we’re banking on the fact they will continue to evolve and be made even cheaper.”

Bulger’s companion is the focus of a court hearing

By Andrew Blankstein Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — The FBI said in Boston court Monday that Whitey Bulger’s longtime companion was a willing participant in their 16-year bid to avoid arrest.

The hearing focused on whether Catherine Greig should be released from jail, something her attorney has sought.

Greig and Bulger lived for years hiding in plain sight in a Santa Monica, Calif., apartment. Bulger had fled from Boston, wanted in connection with 19 homicides and other charges.

In court, FBI agent Michael Carasza said Greig had used fake IDs card regularly, including to purchase medications for herself and Bulger. According to the Boston Globe, the FBI showed videotape of Greig getting prescriptions at a Santa Monica drugstore.

Authorities are trying to figure out how Bulger — one of the FBI’s 10 most wanted fugitives — was able to live fairly openly in Santa Monica. One key question is whether he got financial help. The FBI found more than $800,000 in cash inside the walls of the apartment.

In an interview with the FBI on a flight from Los Angeles to Boston, Bulger admitted that he “previously stashed money with people he trusted.” But he did not say whether anyone is hiding assets for him now, according to court records.

Cellphones could help explain how Bulger was able to communicate with his associates without his true identity being discovered by those he saw every day.

Bulger also told federal agents he had traveled — sometimes armed and disguised — not only to his hometown but also to Las Vegas, San Diego and Tijuana, Mexico, court papers said.

Minnesota shutdown stirs debate over pay

By Patrick Condon The Associated Press

ST. PAUL, Minn. — While thousands of Minnesota employees go without paychecks because the state government is shut down, many lawmakers are still being paid. And the list of workers whose services are deemed “essential” includes the governor’s housekeeper and his personal chef.

As the shutdown entered its second full week Monday, with no end in sight, politicians and public employees traded accusations over who’s getting paid, who isn’t and why.

“None of them should be getting paid,” said Mike Lindholt, a Department of Transportation maintenance worker idled by the shutdown. “If you don’t do your job, you don’t get paid. That’s how it is for most people.”

The political leaders whose budget dispute caused the shutdown are still entitled to collect their pay, and more than half of them are. Democratic Gov. Mark Dayton and the Republican Senate majority leader have both declined their checks, as have some rank-and-file lawmakers of both parties. But many others are still collecting checks, including the Republican House speaker.

“I would like to be treated just like every other state employee,” said Republican Carla Nelson of Rochester, one of 14 state senators who is refusing her salary until the impasse is resolved. “I thought it was the right thing to do for myself and my constituents.”

State lawmakers earn $31,140 a year, which is paid in monthly installments. Because the Legislature is part-time, some members have other jobs. For others, it’s their only source of income.

The shutdown began its 11th day Monday, keeping 22,000 state employees at home without pay. The impasse has halted 100 road projects, closed 66 state parks, barricaded numerous highway rest stops and cut off many services. In that time, Dayton and GOP leaders have met just twice to discuss their differences.

W B Russian boat listed before fatal sinking

Cyprus navy chief dies in explosion

KAZAN, Russia — An aging cruise ship was severely overcrowded, had a malfunctioning engine and listed to one side before it sank in heavy wind and rain on a river east of Moscow, killing as many as 129 people, Russian officials said Monday.

River cruise boats are highly popular among Russian holidaymakers and the Bulgaria was carrying 208 people, including a large group of children, when it set off in stormy weather Sunday, officials said. It was only licensed to carry 120.

The ship was listing when the voyage began, possibly because of unemptied sewage tanks, and the port engine was malfunctioning, local investigators told state news agency RIA Novosti.

Survivors reported the ship leaned to starboard as it made a turn and a wave washed over the deck. It sank within about eight minutes, Igor Panishin, an official with the regional Emergencies Ministry, told RIA Novosti.

ATHENS, Greece — The leader of the Cyprus navy died in a large blast that leveled a munitions storage facility and prompted two of the country’s highest military leaders to resign from their posts, the defense ministry said. At least 11 others — including the commander of the naval base — also died, and dozens more were wounded.

The explosion occurred in a base where the Cyprus authorities were keeping confiscated arms from an Iranian ship intercepted in 2009 off the island’s coast, according to a statement issued by a government spokesman, Stefanos Stefanou. Cyprus said the vessel had been on its way to Syria in violation of U.N. sanctions.

The blast occurred in the early hours of Monday morning and left a scene of destruction around the base, located on the Mediterranean island’s southern coast, including heavy damage to a nearby power station, television images showed.

Shortly after the blast, Defense Minister Costas Papacostas and Brig. Gen. Petros Tsalikides, the country’s top military official, resigned their posts.

Aid snub dims U.S. sway, Pakistanis say

Brian Peterson / The (Minneapolis) Star Tribune

Minnesota Gov. Mark Dayton stands on the capitol steps Monday in St. Paul, Minn., pleading for a compromise from the Republican leadership.

As of midday Monday, no further budget negotiations were scheduled. Minnesota is the only state in the nation that has not approved a new budget this year.

The shutdown started July 1 after Dayton and lawmakers failed to enact a new budget by the start of the state’s two-year spending cycle. Dayton wants to eliminate a projected $5 billion budget deficit with a mix of spending cuts and new revenue from taxes or other sources.

Republicans insist on fixing the problem with spending cuts alone.

Rep. King Banaian, a St. Cloud Republican, decided to keep taking his paycheck and blamed Dayton for the shutdown.

“We’re still working, just as other essential employees are. I guess we’re kind of essential to getting things done,” he said. “I feel we’re ceding too much authority to the governor if we link whether we get paid to whether or not he accepts our budget.”

ISLAMABAD — The decision to suspend more than onethird of American military aid to Pakistan could end up hurting Washington more than Islamabad as the U.S. seeks to navigate an end to the Afghan war and defeat al-Qaida, former Pakistani officials and analysts warned Monday.

Holding back the $800 million in aid is unlikely to pressure Pakistan to increase cooperation with the U.S. and could strengthen those in the government who argue that Washington is a fickle ally who can’t be trusted, they said.

“If you still need the relationship, which clearly the United States does, then it really doesn’t make sense to take action at this time because it leaves the United States with less, not more, influence with the Pakistani military,” said Maleeha Lodhi, a former Pakistani ambassador to the U.S. “Cooperation cannot be coerced by punitive actions.”

Ramadan’s approach worries Libyan rebels ZINTAN, Libya — Rebels battling Moammar Gadhafi’s forces in Libya’s western mountains fear that supply shortages and other hurdles could prevent them from making major headway before fighting is likely to slow for Ramadan next month.

Rebel leaders say that limited fuel, water and food could take a toll on the fighting force as temperatures soar in the arid mountain ridge where the rebels have been slowly but steadily gaining ground on troops loyal to Gadhafi.

“It will be more difficult for us,” Col. Juma Ibrahim, a senior rebel commander, said of the period of religious observance during which many Muslims fast from dawn to dusk. Ramadan begins toward the start of August.

MINNEAPOLIS — The war of the e-book readers heated up Monday when Target Corp. said it will be the exclusive U.S. retailer for the first device that accesses the Google e-book library via Wi-Fi. Target will have a six-month exclusive on the Story HD, which will compete head-on with the Barnes & Noble Nook, Amazon Kindle, Sony Reader and more than 70 lesser-known e-book readers.

The Target e-reader, from the California company iriver, costs $139.99 and will be available in stores beginning Sunday.

Target didn’t return a phone call about the e-reader, but Google and iriver were eager to talk about it. Executives from those companies said the Story HD offers Wi-Fi connectivity to Google’s online bookstore, along with a sharper screen image and quicker page changes than competitors.

Target gets exclusive on Google e-reader

By Tim Doran The Bulletin

A Gresham company working on a way to turn brush and woody forest waste into fuel that could replace coal in power plants wants to build a commercial production plant in Prineville, possibly within two years.

HM3 Energy has received federal-government and nonprofit grants to conduct research and build a demonstration plant

in Troutdale, according to the company’s website. If that research proves out, the company plans to build a plant in Prineville that will “produce the thousands of tons … biomass briquettes necessary for large-scale test burns at coal-fired power plants,” according to the website.

Officials with the company and the city of Prineville could not be reached Monday.

But documents, including a letter written to three Oregon state representatives by a

businessman whose firm would help provide the raw materials for the large wood pellets, revealed that the commercial plant, estimated to cost about $9 million, could generate around 40 jobs.

The letter, from Randall Jones of natural resource consulting company Central Oregon Geographic, also noted that providing the brush and slash from forestland would create another 12 to 15 jobs. The letter was in support of Oregon legislation to provide tax credits for biomass transportation. The bill died in committee.

Tech companies lead office rent rebound The U.S. office market gained 3.7 million square feet of net occupied space in the three months through June, the third straight quarterly increase, Reis Inc. said last week. Vacancies fell or were unchanged in nine of the 10 largest office markets, and declined in more than half of the 79 metropolitan areas surveyed, the New York-based property-research firm said.

Demand for space from technology companies is leading a rebound in U.S. office rents. Groupon, the Chicagobased coupon-website operator, in June signed a lease for a 40,000-square-foot building in Palo Alto, Calif., to house its growing Silicon Valley product and engineering staff. The building, at 3101 Park Blvd., is more than triple the size of Groupon’s current space in the city, said Julie Mossler, a spokeswoman for the company.

The company said Monday that Peabody Energy and ArcelorMittal had offered to take a controlling stake in Macarthur for 15.50 Australian dollars a share, valuing it at AU$4.7 billion, or $5.1 billion.

The company, based in Brisbane, was hit by floods that devastated Queensland last year. The natural disaster cost the company tons of production, although that was mostly offset by a rise in coal prices on fears it would become scarce.

Shop is 1 of 2 in U.S. that will convert engines in Toyota trucks, SUVs

By Tim Doran The Bulletin

Hawk Greenway traveled about 1,000 miles, from western Colorado to Bend, to pick up his modified 1999 Toyota 4Runner on Monday at Import Performance.

The northeast Bend shop is one of the only places in the U.S. where Greenway could get the vehicle he wanted — a Toyota SUV powered by a diesel engine.

The Japanese automaker does not sell diesel-equipped vehicles in this country, according to its website, although it offers them in other countries.

So U.S. consumers who want a diesel-powered truck or SUV must swap engines, or find a shop that can convert gasoline engines to use diesel.

“It’s hard to find competent guys to do diesel-engine conversions,” said Greenway, who lives near Aspen. “It’s

Proposed BofA deal means more could lose homes

By Nelson D. Schwartz New York Times News Service

Tens of thousands of Bank of America’s most distressed borrowers could be evicted and lose their homes more quickly as a result of a proposed settlement between the bank, which is the country’s largest mortgage servicer, and investors in its troubled mortgage securities.

For struggling borrowers in better financial shape, the outcome could be more positive: The deal would include incentives for mortgage servicers to help homeowners who have fallen behind on their payments and whose homes are worth less than what they borrowed.

“The goal is to reinstate as many borrowers in a modification that performs well,” said Tony Meola, a servicing executive with Bank of America. “It also is likely to lead to faster resolution in those unfortunate situations where foreclosure is inevitable. While not a desirable outcome, the recovery of the housing markets depends on moving through the foreclosure process as quickly and fairly as possible.”

While powerful investors stand to benefit from the $8.5 billion settlement over the bank’s bundling of shoddy mortgages as securities, the fallout for the nearly 275,000 borrowers who took out those loans depends greatly on how deep they are in the foreclosure process and whether they earn enough money to dig themselves out.

Import Performance, located off Northeast Empire Avenue between the Bend Parkway and Boyd Acres Road, is one of two shops in the country that will drop used diesel engines into Toyota trucks and SUVs, said owner Gabe

Christian. He’s also had customers from Baja, Mexico, Texas, Washington state and Wyoming.

Christian, 36, opened Import Performance 9½ years ago, specializing in high-performance import cars, similar to those made popular in the “The Fast and the Furious” movies.

The work sometimes included engine conversions, he said, so swapping gasoline engines for diesels on trucks and SUVs wasn’t a big leap for the company.

Christian began the diesel swaps about a year ago. The first he put together for himself, believing a market existed for the conversions. He was right.

“Someone found out I had it, bought it, and I shipped it off to Georgia,” he said.

Financial contagion spreads to Italy

By Liz Alderman and Rachel Donadio New York Times News Service

Throughout Europe’s debt crisis, Italy has largely managed to steer clear of the troubles that have engulfed its profligate Mediterranean neighbors.

But the contagion that started in the euro zone’s smaller countries is suddenly moving to some of its largest. As Greece teeters on the brink of a default, the game has changed: Investors are taking aim at any country suffering from a toxic combination of high debt, slow growth, and political dysfunction — and Italy has it all, in spades.

In recent days, Italy has become Europe’s next weak link after Greece, Ireland and Portugal and Spain, harmed in particular by a power struggle between Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi and his finance minister, Giulio Tremonti. The dispute threatens to turn the euro zone’s third-largest economy, after Germany and France, into one of its biggest liabilities.

On Monday, the Italian government struggled to rein in the tensions, as fears rose that political paralysis could make it harder for Italy to embrace the austerity demanded by outsiders to reduce one of the highest debt levels in the world. European policymakers also sought to figure out how they would put out a bigger fire if Italy were to succumb.

At Old Navy, one fake woman helps reinterpret company’s brand Old Navy president Tom Wyatt revamped store design and layout to help boost sales after years of decline.

The company based its new approach on the fictional “Jenny,” a typical Old Navy customer who is a 25- to 35-yearold mother who earns $50,000 and is pressed for time.

David Paul Morris Bloomberg News

By Ryan Flinn Bloomberg News

SAN MATEO, Calif. — Tom Wyatt, president of Gap Inc.’s Old Navy chain, says the best part of shopping at his stores comes when it’s time to leave.

As part of a remodeling of the shops, Old Navy revamped its “cash wrap” — the area where customers wait to pay for clothes. It used to be a plain old checkout lane. Now Old Navy has added freeze-dried astronaut ice cream and specialty sodas from Jones Soda Co., as well as superhero lunch boxes, glitter- covered piggy banks and Mad Libs books.

They’re meant to stir nostalgia for the chain’s target customers, who grew up in the 1980s. Even buttoned-down bankers are susceptible, Wyatt said. During an Old Navy tour with analysts, one bought four packets of the astronaut ice cream, Wyatt said. “He hadn’t seen them in years.”

Customers shopping at the updated stores typically spend $1 to $2 more a trip than they did

Italy Continued from B1 Those jitters hit stock markets Monday not just in Italy, where the major index fell nearly 4 percent, but across much of Europe as well, with the markets in France and Germany off more than 2 percent each. The United States was affected, too, with the Standard & Poor’s 500-stock index down about 1.8 percent on European debt fears and worries about the showdown in Washington over raising the United States debt limit.

“Italy is too big to fail,” said Moises Naim, a senior associate in the international economics program at the Carnegie Endowment in Washington. “If Italy really gets hit by contagion because of political mismanagement, it would be a threat not only to the euro zone, but to the global economy.”

Political soap operas in Italy — especially those featuring Berlusconi — are nothing new. Nor did they usually matter much to financial markets, even after the debt crisis hit Europe. The widespread problems in Italy’s economy, which has been sluggish for the better part of a decade, also rang few alarm bells.

What’s more, Italy’s banks are sound; they never speculated in a housing bubble. The current annual budget deficit is low, at about 4.6 percent of its gross domestic product. And while Italy issues the largest amount of bonds of any euro zone country, Italians

before, Wyatt said. Those results spurred Gap to greenlight an expansion from two test stores in 2008 to almost a third of its more than 1,020 locations by the end of this month. About 100 locations will get the revamped look this year at Old Navy, which is Gap Inc.’s biggest source of revenue in North America.

Wyatt, 56, has led a comeback at Old Navy since he took charge in 2008. At the time, the brand was reeling from five years of declining same-store sales and its locations hadn’t been modernized since the apparel chain debuted in 1994. Worse: Wyatt realized that no one seemed to know who Old Navy was designing its clothes for, he said.

“I had a holy heck moment,” he said while strolling through racks of clothing at an Old Navy store in San Mateo. “So we spent a lot of time re-engaging who our current customer is.”

The result was “Jenny,” Old Navy’s typical customer: a fictional 25- to 35-year-old mother who earns $50,000 and is pressed for

time. Deciding on one personality helped the company focus its clothing styles, marketing campaigns and store designs.

The change has helped increase same-store sales every year since Wyatt took over, even during the worst recession since the Great Depression. Old Navy sales, which overtook those of Gap-branded stores in 2005, ticked up 2 percent in the fiscal year ended Jan. 29. That compared with a 1 percent drop for Gap’s North American stores.

“We have 45,000 associates that literally talk about Jenny,” Wyatt said. “What that did for us was normalized what the interpretation of what the product should be.”

Old Navy still faces challenges, including soaring costs of cotton and other materials. In May, San Francisco-based Gap cut its fullyear profit forecast by 22 percent as costs to make clothes rose faster than expected. The stock suffered its biggest one-day drop in almost 10 years.

Old Navy also has had some

marketing misfires under Wyatt.

After years of advertising with talking mannequins, the company switched back to people this year. That campaign has taken time to resonate with shoppers, contributing to a 2 percent sales decline in the first quarter, Wyatt said.

“It wasn’t really that fun,” he said.

Old Navy also faces mounting competition from Hennes & Mauritz and other low-cost, fashion-oriented rivals, as well as Wal-Mart Stores and Target.

H&M plans to add more than 150 stores in the second half, and the United States is one of the biggest growth markets for the Stockholm-based company.

The new cash-wrap area is a small part of helping reinvigorate growth, though it’s spurring sales of products besides clothes, Wyatt said. The old setup was a “miserable way to end your shopping experience at Old Navy,” he said. “Mad Libs is a significant business for us, and didn’t exist a year ago.”

own about half the debt, making it less vulnerable to the follies of financial markets.

But with interest rates rising, Italy’s economy is not growing fast enough to cover an accumulated debt load of 120 percent of gross domestic product, the secondhighest in Europe, after Greece.

The International Monetary Fund expects growth to pick up only slightly, to 1.3 percent in 2012.

In a sign of how quickly things have turned against the country, the stock market regulator imposed emergency rules Monday against speculation after shares in Italian banks slumped for a fifth consecutive session. The cost of insuring Italy’s sovereign debt against default surged to an all-time high, and the interest on its 10-year bond leaped to a record 5.67 percent.

While that is still well below what Greece pays, analysts say Italy will have serious problems if its borrowing costs rise above 6 percent.

“Italy is a banana republic that didn’t depend so much on foreign capital in the past, but now it does, and markets are less forgiving,” said Daniel Gros, the director of the Center for European Policy Studies in Brussels. “Italy is in the danger zone; that is quite clear now.” Italy tends to function best in crisis-management mode, analysts say, and Berlusconi has begun to acknowledge the seriousness of the dangers facing the country after a phone conversation with the German chancellor,

Angela Merkel, on Sunday.

Today, Berlusconi “understands the risks objectively because the situation is dramatic,” said Stefano Folli, the chief political columnist for the financial daily Il Sole 24 Ore. Folli and other analysts predicted that the Italian Parliament would rally and pass a 40 billion euro ($56 billion) austerity package that Tremonti had championed — even if it turns out to be one of the last significant acts of a government running out of political capital.

made public, Tremonti had been staying in an apartment owned

by Milanese. He moved out soon after they surfaced.

Even if Parliament approves the austerity measures in the coming weeks, the scandal around Tremonti could grow.

“I don’t think he can withstand this scandal — it’s becoming unsustainable,” said Massimo Giannini, the business editor and deputy editor of La Repubblica.

“He has too many enemies inside the government.”

In Brussels on Monday, Merkel said: “I have firm confidence in the Italian government to approve exactly such a budget — I spoke on the telephone with the Italian prime minister yesterday on precisely this issue — and to signal that Italy feels a duty to consolidation and fighting debt.”

“The euro itself is stable,” she added, “but we have a problem in some countries.”

For Italy, the biggest worry right now is that its fate may rest as much in Athens, Brussels and Berlin as it does in Rome. Only a week ago, it looked like Greece might be turning a corner on its problems, after the government managed to push through an austerity package, and French and German banks worked on ways to help Greece avoid default.

But the plan by banks unraveled over the weekend, and policymakers are at an impasse on how to require contributions from private creditors as part of a second Greek bailout.

Political turmoil Last week, Berlusconi sparked a sell-off in Italian bonds by suggesting that Tremonti, a longtime political rival and the sole guardian of fiscal prudence in Italy, could be elbowed out of government, imperiling the austerity package, whose details still remain shrouded in confusion.

“He thinks he’s a genius and everyone else is stupid,” Berlusconi said of Tremonti in an interview published Friday in La Repubblica, the center-left daily. “He is the only minister who is not a team player,” he added.

At the same time, Tremonti has other problems. Naples prosecutors are seeking the arrest of one of his close advisers, Marco Milanese, a member of Parliament who has been accused of accepting jewelry, cars and other luxury items from an Italian businessman.

GM to sell diesel version of popular Chevrolet Cruze

By Tom Krisher The Associated Press

DETROIT — The Chevrolet Cruze, the most popular car in the U.S. last month, will come in a diesel version that could boost gas mileage to around 50 mpg, two people briefed on General Motors Co. product plans said Monday.

A diesel Cruze would help GM meet more stringent government gas mileage requirements. It also would rival the efficiency of the popular Toyota Prius gas-electric hybrid, which gets 51 mpg in the city and 48 on the highway, according to estimates from the Environmental Protection Agency.

The diesel Cruze won’t hit showrooms until at least 2013, according to one of the people, both of whom asked not to be identified because the company hasn’t made a formal announcement.

The people didn’t know the price of the Cruze. Cars with diesel engines generally cost more than those with gasoline engines because they are more expensive to produce.

The base version of the Cruze now starts at $16,525. The diesel Cruze would be built ALWAYS STIRRING UP SOMETHING GOOD Serving Central Oregon Since 1975

Founded in 2008, HM3 first researched ways to produce ethanol, according to company materials. But in 2009, its efforts shifted to a process that heats brush and woody forest debris to high temperatures, removing the moisture and other elements, and leaving solid material.

HM3 won a first-round research grant last year for $90,000 from the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and in late June the company learned its second-

round application for an additional $500,000 has been accepted.

The company has designed equipment and started construction of demonstration plant, according to marketing brochure posted on the city of Gresham’s website.

In that brochure, HM3 also has discussed financing the Prineville plant, at least in part, through a U.S. immigration program that grants green-card status to foreign investors who invest between $500,000 and $1 million in U.S. companies that create jobs, according to the brochure.

The company has been in negotiations with American United Development Group, which will operate a regional center in Portland for the immigration program, known as the EB-5 Immigrant Investor Program, said David Luo, project manager with American United.

“We are interested in it,” he said. “And we are negotiating with that development. I believe this is a very interesting project.”

GM spokesman Tom Wilkinson would not comment on the diesel engine.

GM sold about 25,000 Cruzes last month, vaulting the model past perennial leaders such as the Toyota Camry and Honda Accord to become the best-selling car in the U.S. Both Toyota and Honda had fewer models to sell because of parts shortages caused by the March 11 earthquake and tsunami in Japan.

GM has several diesel-powered cars in other parts of the world, including a 2.0-liter, four-cylinder turbocharged diesel Cruze that’s selling well in Australia.

GM and other U.S.-based automakers have been reluctant to bring diesel engines to the U.S. for fear that people wouldn’t pay extra for them. Only 2.7 percent of cars and light trucks sold in the U.S. came equipped with diesels in the 2010 model year, according to Ward’s AutoInfoBank.

Explosion of companies clamoring for piece of $34B industry

By Bridget Carey McClatchy-Tribune News Service

MIAMI — For the companies that hang their profits on savvy cases for smartphones and tablets, staying ahead of the competition means betting millions of dollars on which mobile devices will be hot — and which will flop.

Makers of accessories for mobile gadgets are in a fight for a piece of an industry that’s expected to rake in $34 billion this year.

Some products, like cases, have a low barrier to entry: Come up with a design, have someone in China build it, and sell it at a street fair. The difficulty lies in standing out enough to make the investment worthwhile — and knowing which phones are worth accessorizing.

“There are so many people flooding in here,” said Michael Morgan, senior analyst of mobile devices at ABI Research. “The case market has exploded.”

Among those angling for a share of the market is Sunrise, Fla.-based A. G. Findings and Manufacturing, or AGF, which makes protective cases for phones and tablets. Through partnerships with carriers, its office houses dozens of smartphone models that have yet to be released — something most tech rumor bloggers would love to get their hands on. When today’s big seller is outdated tomorrow, the team is in an eternal race to get product in stores before every major smartphone launch. Being late by just a few weeks can mean losing 70 percent of sales

to a competitor.

A company like AGF has to find a niche, and it has: by throwing phones off buildings — and having them land in one piece.

Its Ballistic brand, a bulky, multi-layered shock-resistant case, is what put AGF at an annual revenue today of $15 million — a figure that represents doubled revenues each year for the past three years, it says. Its primary competition is OtterBox — another maker of cases that can protect a phone from fatal drops, and which has a more recognized brand in more stores. Both have a price tag around $50, but AGF is selling it for less to retailers to scoop up more shelf space.

“We’re willing to make less profit than they are,” said Fernando Tages, AGF’s chief operating officer. “Now that we’ve entered, I’m sure that they’ll need to be competitive with us, and they’ll need to drop their prices as well.”

Tages said the Ballistic brand is currently in AT&T stores and should be in others such as Best Buy, RadioShack and Walmart by the end of the year.

Taking risks Since its start in 1993, AGF’s produce line has morphed with technology. Originally it made holsters and belt clips for beepers — remember those? — as well as generic leather sewn cases that fit multiple phone models. But today’s flat, large-screen smartphones require far more engineering to get a perfect, snug fit.

Making a case takes eight

to 12 weeks, and getting it out the same day as launch is a challenge when a company like Apple keeps phone details a secret until the last moment.

When AGF was given the shape of the rumored iPhone 4 from an unknown source, executives had to make a quick decision. Did Apple really make a boxy iPhone 4? Or could it be a decoy to fool the media? If they were to launch a case in time, they would need to trust the information.

“We said, ‘We have to do it.’

It could be a complete waste of money and time, and it probably would have sunk the company,” Tages said — but it turned out the measurements were valid.

“That was a gut-wrenching three months for our company.”

Not every gamble has worked.

The flop of the Google Nexus line cost the firm a couple of million dollars in unwanted inventory.

More than $5 billion likely will be spent on smartphone cases this year, Morgan said — a 53 percent increase from last year.

Consumers will spend an estimated $820 million on tablet cases — most of that for Apple’s iPad. With the top-market smartphones priced around $200 and tablets starting at around $400, consumers see a bigger need to protect their large-screen investments from accidental drops — and they can now do it in style.

“Before the iPhone, cases were made, big deal, so what,” Morgan said. “After the iPhone, cases were pretty and everyone wants one.”

Groupon changes its privacy policy to collect, share more personal info

By Julie Wernau Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO — Groupon is changing its privacy policies to allow it to collect more information as it offers more deals targeted to users based on their locations.

The Chicago-based deal site announced the changes in an e-mail to its 83 million subscribers Sunday, saying that the new policies are part of an effort to provide greater transparency about the way it handles private information about users.

The announcements come as the company seeks to go public and on the heels of its launch of Groupon Now, a mobile service that provides instant deals based on a user’s location.

“In short, if you use a Groupon mobile app and you allow sharing through your device, Groupon may collect geo-location information from the device and use it for marketing deals to you,” the company said.

The company broadened its definition of “personal information” to include “interests and habits” and said a partnership

that provides travel deals with Expedia means that personal information can be shared with the travel site if users subscribe to receive travel deals.

Groupon said other information it collects and shares with Expedia and for use on Groupon Now could include relationship information, transaction information, financial account information and mobile location information.

The deal company said customers can control what is shared and collected by Groupon.

Consumers can manage their e-mail preferences and subscriptions through their account setting, how cookies are handled through their browsers and can opt out of being targeted by certain third-party advertising companies by clicking links provided in the Groupon’s privacy policy.

Users who wish to opt out of receiving offers from Groupon’s business partners can follow opt-out instructions that come in e-mails those companies send out. Users can also stop their

mobile devices from sharing location information with Groupon by adjusting the privacy settings on their phones.

Jeffrey Johnson, a partner specializing in digital media with New York law firm Pryor Cashman, said Groupon’s decision to e-mail consumers about the changes and explain them in plain English is an attempt to ward off potential controversy.

Past privacy changes on Facebook, for instance, led some consumers to leave the site after the changes took them by surprise.

“I think this is driven as much, if not more, by public relations as much as anything else,” he said.

Darren Cahr, a partner at DrinkerBiddle in Chicago, said the policy is a good indication about the direction Groupon is headed.

“Geo-location is becoming increasingly important in general,” he said. “But I think that to Groupon in particular, this is evidence that it will be an important part of its business model in the years to come.”

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Halfway through what is expected to be the biggest hiring year in Google’s history, the Internet giant is discovering that a touchstone of its culture — employee groups — is becoming an ever more important way to navigate the fast-growing company.

Just ask Camille James. When she moved from Tokyo to take a job at Google three years ago, she had never lived in California, had never worked for a big company, and knew not a soul at the Mountain View, Calif., firm.

Fortunately, she knew how to bowl.

Hoping to make a connection, James organized a team in Google’s bowling league among the “Nooglers” — as new employees are called at Google — who started the same Monday she did. “It’s clearly a very big company, and I didn’t come from that background,” said James, a human resources employee. “But then you dig in and follow your own interests, and you find your own little micro community.”

Groups have always been an integral aspect of life at Google, but as the company approaches 30,000 employees, they have become an ever more critical mooring for new and veteran employees at a company trying to assimilate “Nooglers” at a pace of more than 100 a week. Many Silicon Valley companies have groups for employee minority or cultural groups, but Google goes further, actively encouraging, and sometimes even providing financial support, for employees to organize special-interest

“It makes us more inclusive and it breaks down the walls and the disconnects that could happen in such a big organization.”

— Camille James, Google employee groups ranging from economic theory to photography.

Google has 19 “Employee Resource Groups” or ERGs, employee-initiated entities that receive financial support from the company and represent social, cultural or minority groups, including the Gayglers (for lesbian and gay employees), the Greyglers (for older employees), the Hispanic Googler Network, Google Women Engineers, VetNet for military veterans and the Black Googlers Network, or BGN. But there are literally tens of thousands of special interest groups that can range in size from two to more than 1,000 members and cover topics from wine to hiking to quilting to Dungeons & Dragons. There are the Gleeglers (who sing a cappella); the Dooglers, who bring their dogs to work; the Snowglers (skiers); and the Skeptics (who question everything). There are groups for pilots, expectant moms and photographers, and a group for Googlers who like flea markets. There’s even a group for former startup employees whose companies were bought

by Google and who may struggle to navigate a company where

they must be both entrepreneurs and employees.

Any employee can start a group — in fact, employees are encouraged to, said Stacy Sullivan, Google’s chief culture officer, a title bestowed by the founders. Most groups have an e-mail “alias” on Google’s vast intranet system, such as “bowlinggoogle .com.” Google has more than 100,000 group aliases in its Intranet system, although not all groups are active.

For employees, the groups “have been kind of anchors and havens and think tanks — to actually be able to build their own community, just for their own support and interactions, within the mass of all Google,” Sullivan said.

Most employees belong to several groups. James, for example, belongs to the bowlers, the BGN, a salsa dancing group and a quilting group.

“It makes us more inclusive and it breaks down the walls and the disconnects that could happen in such a big organization,” James said. Though she joined Google’s bowling league to find friends, it has been a big part of building her own professional network within the company. To tackle a work project once, she connected with people on the finance side she’d met through bowling.

The very idea of taking it upon yourself to launch a group is an example of a basic tenet at Google: Ideas are supposed to bubble up from the grass roots.

Managers are supposed to be enablers, not dictate from the top down.

“That’s our whole culture,” Sullivan said.

about three weeks to complete.

While Christian did not want to give specifics, he said the engine swaps have improved his business. To keep up with the work, he hired a new technician about five weeks ago, freeing up another to concentrate on conversions. All Import Performance technicians are certified by the National Institute for Automotive Service Excellence.

“You’ve got to be sharp,” Christian said, referring to the skill required to perform the conversions. “You’ve got to know wiring extremely well and have the theory.”

Christian agreed to answer a few additional questions about Import Performance and its engine conversions.

Continued from B1 Toyota diesel enthusiasts have started Internet forums and blogs devoted to their interest, with one even suggesting supporters write Toyota and request the automaker sell diesel-powered vehicles in the U.S. Diesel aficionados like the engines because they get better fuel mileage and last longer than gasoline engines.

When Christian posts a Toyota diesel sale on his own website or Craigslist, he said, people call from across the country.

Import Performance buys used trucks and SUVs in Japan, has the vehicles cut in half and ships the front sections to Bend — minus the seats, dashboards and doors. His technicians essentially need the drivetrain, engine, transmission and wiring to install in another vehicle, either one supplied by a customer or owned by the shop.

Price varies based on the vehicle and engine models, Christian said, but the conversion starts around $6,000 and can climb to more than $15,000 for newer Toyota Tacoma pickups and 4Runners. The conversions take

Q: A:

How did you get started swapping engines?

I’ve been doing performance stuff since I opened the shop, Honda cars and Nissan cars. In those engine swaps, you do the same things. It kind of just changed into (Toyota trucks and SUVs.) I’ve always been into Toyotas. I worked at (the) Toyota (dealership) here in town.

Q:

Foreclosure

What problems do you encounter?

vicers over the last four years.”

Matthew Weidner, a Florida lawyer who represents borrowers facing foreclosure, said he was skeptical of promises by the deal’s architects that lower monthly payments would be easier to obtain.

“It’s like giving aspirin to someone with cancer,” he said of the proposed assistance. “You had all the big players at the top of the pyramid negotiating but nobody was speaking for the homeowners who have far more at stake at the ground level.”

Still, for some of the homeowners now facing foreclosure who took out loans with Countrywide, the subprime specialist bought

by Bank of America in 2008, the deal could bring a few quick improvements.

Under the terms of the agreement, Bank of America must now start the process of transferring these borrowers to 10 smaller outside servicers, even without the deal being approved in court, which is not expected before November. The architects of the settlement say these subservicers will be far more efficient than Bank of America’s giant payment processing operation.

For example, an analysis of data by RBS prepared as part of the settlement found that Bank of America provided fewer modifi-

Continued from B1 While no exact income qualification has been set as part of the agreement, which was announced last month, many servicers use a formula in which borrowers can qualify for a modification as long as the new monthly payment does not exceed 31 percent of a borrower’s monthly gross income. For borrowers who are unemployed or lack the income to cover even reduced mortgage payments, foreclosure and eviction could be much more immediate.

With 1.3 million borrowers at risk of foreclosure, Bank of America has been overwhelmed by the surge in defaults, and the accord has raised hopes that this logjam will finally begin to ease.

But skeptics say that previous arrangements, like another multibillion-dollar settlement by Bank of America in 2008, have barely made a dent in the problem.

“The mortgage servicers have repeatedly promised to do things and then not done them,” said Michael Barr, a former assistant Treasury secretary who now teaches law at the University of Michigan. “I think it’s positive in general, but I don’t expect it to be transformative of what we’ve witnessed from the mortgage ser-

What is the appeal of Toyota trucks and SUVs with diesel engines?

It’s a Toyota motor, which lasts a long time, and diesels, of course, which last a lot longer than gas engines. It’s completely feasible to get 400,000 or 500,000 miles out of it.

Delores Gosha, who has a Bank of America home loan, sits on the front porch of her house in Maple Heights, Ohio. She hasn’t made a mortgage payment in more than a year, increasing the chances that her home will end up in foreclosure. cations as a percentage of unpaid principal than JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo, Litton and other servicers. In addition, borrowers defaulted again within six months in nearly one in five cases when modifications were made by Bank of America, a higher rate than other servicers that were studied.

Officials at Bank of America contend the company has made nearly 875,000 modifications since 2008, more than any other servicer.

Under the new proposal, subservicers will have to provide an answer to homeowner modification requests within 60 days of receiving paperwork, and will get up to 1.5 percent of the unpaid principal balance as an incentive fee for each successful permanent modification.

The first homeowners should be transferred out of Bank of America by early fall, with each of the 10 subservicers taking up to 30,000 cases. Borrowers with

things that make my laptop all that much better than my phone,” Reyes said.

Of those who solely rely on smartphones to surf the Web, most are minorities, are younger than 30 and have low incomes.

They’ve found mobile devices as a suitable replacement for buying expensive computers and paying DSL or cable modem bills every month, Smith said.

Cable and DSL remain faster, but that difference may not be big enough to justify their high costs for some consumers.

Currently, 63 percent of all Web traffic is generated by computers, but that number will decline to 46 percent by 2015, according to Cisco, the maker of Internet network equipment.

“Speeds are improving, Wi-Fi is getting faster and devices are proliferating,” said Mary Brown, Cisco vice president of policy.

By 2015, the number of mobile Internet users around the globe will increase 56-fold, to 788 million users, Cisco said.

Boosting their numbers will be fourth-generation high-speed Internet networks, transmitted over new cell towers, with speeds that compare to some DSL connections, experts say.

That means users will be able

mortgages 60 days past due who have been delinquent more than once in the last 12 months will receive priority in the switch, followed by homeowners who are 90 days past due but not in foreclosure.

Homeowners already in foreclosure or who have been declared bankrupt will go to the back of the line, although they will also eventually be transferred, Patrick said. More than 75 percent of the nearly 275,000 delinquent homeowners have not made a payment in more than 120 days or are already in foreclosure.

One unintended consequence of the problems at Bank of America and other large servicers is that many borrowers have managed to remain in their homes despite being in default, and without the income to qualify for a modification. At the time of foreclosure, the typical Bank of America borrower has not made a payment in 18 months.

What is more, according to the analysis of RBS data, it takes 30 months on average for a subprime borrower’s property to move from foreclosure to a final sale with Bank of America, nearly a year longer than Wells Fargo, and 10 months longer than SPS, a smaller subservicer likely to be among the 10 selected to take over the former Countrywide loans.

to watch high-definition streaming video on smartphones with few interruptions.

Yet smartphones have limitations.

Filling out a medical form or a job application and creating presentations for class or work is difficult because of the way the content is formatted on devices.

And recent changes by wireless carriers on the way users are billed may discourage smartphone users from cutting the cord to their cable or DSL provider.

Verizon, for instance, is charging new customers for every bit of data they consume, rather than offering all-you-can-eat monthly plans.

Some public interest groups say those plans are designed to keep users in bundled packages for multiple services. AT&T and Verizon, for instance, offer wireless, broadband home Internet and television services.

“In many cases these wireless carriers also have wire-line and television services and what they want is to encourage users to keep using all three services, not to replace one for the other,” said Benjamin Lennett, a senior technology policy analyst at the New America Foundation.

“Countrywide made a lot of bad loans and borrowers with no money can’t afford a modification,” said Peter Swire, a former special assistant for housing policy in the Obama administration who helped oversee earlier federal efforts to promote modifications.

He is now a professor at Ohio State University. “One discouraging problem is that only a small fraction of Countrywide borrowers will likely qualify,” Swire said.

Delores Gosha hopes she will be one of the lucky ones.

It’s been more than a year since she last made a mortgage payment to Bank of America, raising the risk that her bungalow in the Cleveland suburbs will end up in foreclosure. The bank, she says, has given varying answers as to whether she qualifies for a modification, telling her she did not at one point last week only to reverse course days later and say it was still under consideration. Gosha said she had had to deal with a multitude of representatives and submit the same documents over and over.

While a new servicer might not give her the answer she has been praying for, she said, at least she will get an answer.

“I’ve been up and down,” said Gosha, who is a clerk at a Cleveland hospital. “Can’t somebody tell me something?”

Nestle to buy control of a top Chinese confectioner

By Bettina Wassener New York Times News Service

HONG KONG — Nestle, the Swiss food company, said Monday that it had agreed to pay $1.7 billion for a 60 percent stake in a big Chinese confectioner.

The deal is one of the biggest ever by a foreign company in China.

Best known for its instant coffee brands, bottled drinks and baby foods, Nestle is teaming with Hsu Fu Chi International, a maker of chocolate, candies and pastries popular in China, to create a joint venture that Nestle said would “greatly reinforce” its presence in China.

Under the terms of the deal, Nestle will pay 4.35 Singaporean dollars, or $3.56, a share for a 43.5 percent stake in Hsu Fu Chi, which is based in the southern Chinese city of Dongguan but is listed on the Singapore stock exchange.

MADRAS

IN BRIEF Warm Springs fire ruled man-made Warm Springs Fire Management officials confirmed the 1,300-acre fire that burned northwest of the city of Warm Springs last week was manmade.

“Right now the fire is still under investigation and we expect the results of that investigation next week,” said William Wilson, assistant fire management officer.

Wilson did not say what specifically caused the fire, nor did he say if its ignition was intentional.

The fire, fueled by dry grass and sagebrush and fanned by 40-mph winds, began Thursday afternoon and quickly spread across fields in the Upper Dry Creek area of the reservation. It consumed two houses.

The fire was contained by the weekend.

“Going With the Flow” “Calm Above Dillon Falls”

By Erik Hidle The Bulletin

Somebody has been putting boulders on the railroad tracks in Madras, and authorities believe a person driving a red dune buggy may be involved.

In the past few months, two rocks weighing about 300 pounds have been set on the tracks just north of the trestle spanning Willow Creek Canyon on the northwest side of town.

The first boulder was placed on the tracks in May. A train hit that rock and was lifted off the tracks momentarily before setting safely back on the rails.

The train sustained between $2,000 and $3,000 in damage, but no crew members were injured. Railroad officials didn’t report the incident at the time, thinking the obstruction was unintentional.

On July 3, a train crew spied another boulder blocking the tracks and managed to stop the train before hitting it.

Transient charged in rape near high school

By Erik Hidle The Bulletin

A report of two people having sex in public Sunday night near Marshall High School resulted in a homeless man being charged with rape, sexual abuse and strangulation.

Leon Joshua Hopper, 37 and identified as a transient by Bend Police, was arraigned on the charges Monday afternoon in Deschutes County Court.

Hopper was arrested when an officer found him lying on top of a 54-year-old woman whom police also identified as a transient.

“When the officer came up on them, he felt the victim was incapacitated beyond consent,” said Bend Police Sgt. Dan Ritchie.

Police reports said the officer found the woman to be “unresponsive and physically helpless.”

The woman was hospitalized at St. Charles Medical Center for treatment of non-life-threatening injuries.

Hopper was taken into custody on investigation of rape, sexual abuse, assault and strangulation.

The state changed the charges on Monday and arraigned Hopper on two counts of rape, two counts of sexual abuse and one count of strangulation.

The rape charge is a class A felony. Bail was set at $100,000.

The case is still under investigation and police are asking for anyone with information on the incident to contact them at 541-693-6911.

Erik Hidle can be reached at 541-617-7837 or at ehidle@bendbulletin.com.

Boulders Continued from C1 This time, railroad officials decided to phone authorities. “We still haven’t talked to anybody linked to this, but we are looking for a red dune buggy we believe is involved,� said Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office Detective Starla Green. “If someone is doing this as a joke, they need to stop it because if a train falls off the trestle it’s bad,� Green said. “If it’s being done with criminal intent — right now we don’t know that — but if it is then it’s going to be a crime.�

Gus Melonas, spokesman for Burlington Northern Santa Fe Railway, said his company

has begun a full investigation into the matter. “It’s quite obvious the rock was placed there intentionally,�

Melonas said. “This is something we don’t take lightly.�

Melonas said the trains involved in both instances were carrying “general freight,� including grain and lumber.

He also said both boulders were discovered during evening hours while it was dark.

Investigators are asking anyone with knowledge of the incident or with information about a red dune buggy in the area to call them at 541-475-2201.

O Tribe opens Interstate 5 rest stop as state closes nearby sites

ROMNEY RAISES FUNDS IN PORTLAND

Suspect dies after running from police The Associated Press PORTLAND — Police say a man who died after running from officers in Portland apparently suffered a heart attack.

The man was a passenger in a car that was pulled over early Sunday because a tail light wasn’t working. He was wanted on a parole violation in a drug case.

Police say the man gave an officer false information and took off, jumping over three fences.

He gave up when he was cornered behind a house and arrested without a struggle.

He stopped breathing in a police car and was taken to the Portland Adventist Medical Center, where he died about two hours later. Police say hospital tests indicated he had used marijuana and methamphetamine.

The Associated Press CANYONVILLE — A Southern Oregon tribe has opened a freeway rest stop just off Interstate 5.

The Roseburg News-Review says the Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians hopes to entice some of the travelers who stop there to go to its casino, hotels and other tourist businesses.

The Jordan Creek stop is on a ridge overlooking the Seven Feathers Truck and Travel Center just off the freeway.

It’s called a “rest stop,” rather than a “rest area,” to distinguish it from state-operated stations.

Tribal officers will patrol it.

The rest stop has a covered pavilion, picnic tables, vending machines, a fenced yard for dogs and views of mountains for the travelers.

“Once they stop, they’ll come back,” predicted Tonya TheissSkrip, the tribe’s special projects officer. “I think it’s good for the community at large, the state and the tribe.”

The state estimates it will avoid spending $2 million for water and sewer repairs and save more than $250,000 a year by closing two nearby rest areas that have served 1,400 motorists a day.

The South Umpqua rest area at milepost 112 between Canyonville and Myrtle Creek has been converted to a weigh station. The Cow Creek rest area at milepost 82 just north of Glendale is slated to close after Labor Day. No other privately owned rest areas are planned in the state.

“There’s not a lot of opportunities for other groups to take on this kind of project,” said Darren Neavoll, an ODOT maintenance manager. “Everything was in the right location to make the Jordan Creek project work.”

Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney arrives for a private fundraiser in Portland on Monday.

The former Massachusetts governor running for president held a $1,000-a-plate fundraiser at a home in Portland’s West Hills. The event was not open to the public or the press.

Romney has so far outraised his GOP primary opponents, taking in $18 million during the three-month period that ended on June 30.

Oregon’s primary election comes relatively late in the process — May 20 next year — and is usually too late to influence the national outcome.

An invitation lists 30 individuals or couples as hosts, including state Rep. Sean Lindsay of Hillsboro and Rep. Kevin Cameron, the state House Republican leader. Former congressional candidates Rob Cornilles and Scott Bruun also are listed.

O B Police: Pair posed as marshals in robbery SALEM — Salem police say two men posed as U.S. marshals to stage a home invasion robbery at a northeast Salem home.

Lt. Steve Birr said two men in black dress clothes showed badges and handguns and claimed to be U.S. marshals serving a search warrant for drugs early Sunday. They tied up two men in the home with zip ties and left with an undisclosed amount of jewelry.

The Salem Statesman Journal says neither the tiedup men nor two women at the home were injured.

Barge runs aground on Columbia River ASTORIA — The Coast Guard and Corps of Engineers are assessing a derelict barge that broke away from a mooring Sunday near The Dalles Dam and went aground in the Columbia River east of the Hood River Bridge near Lyle, Wash.

The Coast Guard said the barge was inspected and is free of hazardous material.

There is no pollution threat.

Contractors secured the barge just before midnight Sunday. The Coast Guard plans to have the barge towed away from the navigation channel.

Vibrations send Intel jet back to airport PORTLAND — The pilot of a jet owned by chipmaker Intel Corp. reported engine vibrations Monday and took the plane back to the airport in Hillsboro.

A company spokesman said there were about 40 people aboard. The jet landed safely and passengers were unharmed. The Oregonian

newspaper said there was no information immediately available about the cause of the vibrations.

Pit bull threatens robbery victims PORTLAND — Portland police say a father and son gave up their backpacks to a robber who threatened them with a pit bull.

Officers said the robber pulled on the dog’s leash Sunday afternoon as if he were trying to hold back the animal, so the two gave up the packs.

The pair had been walking their bicycles along the Vera Katz Eastbank Esplanade flanking the Willamette River. Officers said 41-year-old Rodney Graves threw his bicycle at the robber, who continued to make threats.

Officers said they arrested 29-year-old Jan Leith Haga Jr. beneath a nearby bridge. One of the packs was recovered, and the white and gray dog was turned over to the county animal control unit.

Kulongoski picked for sentencing commission SALEM — Gov. John Kitzhaber plans to name his predecessor, Ted Kulongoski, to a commission reviewing Oregon’s criminal-sentencing laws.

The Salem Statesman Journal reported that the commission was part of a package of proposals to revamp state government that Kulongoski made a month before he left office.

The commission will be led

by Chief Justice Paul De Muniz and have members from all

three branches of government.

Hillsboro man pinned beneath bulldozer HILLSBORO — An 81-yearold Hillsboro man was pinned under the bulldozer he was operating Sunday afternoon when it rolled off a 15-foot embankment.

Hillsboro Fire and Rescue said firefighters dug beneath the bulldozer to rescue the man.

He was taken to a hospital and is expected to recover.

Fire at View Point Inn ruled an accident CORBETT — The Multnomah County Rural Fire Protection District says the fire Sunday that damaged the historic View Point Inn at Corbett was accidental.

Chief Tom Layton says it was started on the roof by sparks from the chimney.

The fire damaged the roof, attic and third floor. The first and second floors have smoke and water damage.

No one was injured.

The inn overlooking the Columbia River Gorge is a frequent wedding site and was featured in the movie “Twilight.”

Mayor does not need an election

T

he notion that Bend needs an elected mayor apparently is one of those ideas that pops up from time to time, and, fortunately, is pushed to the side with almost equal speed.

That rejection will happen again next week, if the City Council takes the advice of a committee it created to look into the matter.

Bend’s mayors are currently the first equal among seven equals, chosen by their fellow council members to serve two years on the job. Though the mayor runs council meetings and has a hand in setting agendas for those meetings, the post is largely ceremonial.

The arguments of those who favor a change aren’t much different than they were when the idea was last considered in 2008. Bend would have more visibility if its mayor were elected, though why that is so is unclear.

Bend is the biggest city in Oregon without an elected mayor — again, there’s not much evidence that those other cities run any better or worse than this one does.

In fact, there are stronger arguments for keeping the system unchanged. Bend has what’s known as a weak mayor, strong city manager form of government. Under that system, the City Council hires a professional to run the city, a man or wom-

an versed in everything from employment law to budgeting. City councilors, meanwhile, and with them, the appointed mayors, hold their jobs because they’re good politicians. And while being a good politician is a skill in its own right, it has little to do with the nitty-gritty details of running a city closing in on 100,000.

There’s another problem, as well.

The city manager must do a council’s bidding. If he errs too much, he must explain himself and face the possibility of losing his job in relatively short order. Just as important, the city manager is likely to serve as a mellowing agent for an elected council, keeping the city from wide swings in policy on everything from housing on down.

That’s good: The middle of the road, or near it, is a fine place for a city to be most of the time.

There’s no sound reason to change Bend’s system of government. Short of a sound reason, the council should abandon the idea.

Logic deficit to the wilderness deficit O

ne argument for more federally designated wilderness in Oregon has a logic deficit.

Oregon Wild and the Oregon Natural Desert Association say Oregon has a wilderness deficit compared to neighboring states.

Oregon has about 4 percent of its land designated as wilderness. California has about 15 percent, Washington 11, Idaho 8 and Nevada has about 5 percent.

“We are simply trying to point out that neighboring states have done a much better job at providing protection for their wildest lands,” ONDA Executive Director Brent Fenty told us in an e-mail.

He wrote that Oregon’s Congressional delegation has not taken the necessary steps to finalize deserving areas in Oregon.

We’d stack Oregon’s beauty up against any state.

It’s not that simple.

Arguing that Oregon has a wilderness deficit implies there are definite areas in Oregon that should become wilderness areas. In fact, Oregon Wild argues it would like to add about 5 million additional acres to what is about 2.5 million existing acres of wilderness in Oregon. But wilderness areas must be designated on merit and after debate.

It’s important to remember that Oregon’s federal lands are protected. It’s not exactly easy to do even a thinning

operation for forest health or to reduce fire danger.

What the wilderness designation does is add more protection and strict restrictions. It makes it more difficult for Oregonians to get into an area or to profit from its public lands.

In wilderness, vehicles are forbidden, except in some emergencies.

Horses are allowed. Bicycles are banned.

Hiking, hunting, fishing and camping are all allowed in wilderness areas.

Wildfires are usually allowed to burn.

No new roads can be built.

Logging and mining are generally prohibited.

Designating an area as wilderness, then, has profound implications for a state’s future.

The Wilderness Act of 1964 defines wilderness as “an area where the earth and its community of life are untrammeled by man, where man himself is a visitor who does not remain ... Federal land retaining its primeval character and influence, without permanent improvements or human habitation.”

That does not mean that every acre that fits the federal definition should get the federal designation. Any argument for more wilderness in Oregon should be founded on the land’s merits and a debate over the trade-offs of more restrictions. The percentage of land designated in Oregon does not matter.

How to build South Sudan JUBA, South Sudan — ollowing the hot, happy chaos of its flag-raising ceremony and the departure of 70 planes worth of VIPs from its capital, a newly independent South Sudan now faces a lonelier task. It must construct a nation out of flawed materials — a weak economy, a strong military and fractious tribes.

The difficulties were illustrated to me at dinner with a prominent political figure from the ruling party, the Sudan People’s Liberation Movement (SPLM).

He had been a fighter in the bush for more than 15 years, with several gunshot scars to prove it. His bravery is unquestioned. Yet his military achievements lead him to be openly dismissive of anyone — politicians, intellectuals or exiles — who lack a war record.

The former commander told me the parable of a hunter whose sends his dog to kill his prey, but then leaves only bones for the dog. The implication was clear: The military, having done the hardest work, will not be content with the bones.

This is a difficulty in most post-revolutionary countries. Can a guerrilla army transform itself into an effective governing class? Will the warriors welcome or resent non-military talent and technical expertise?

Western development experts often talk vaguely of corruption, as though it always means the filling of Swiss bank accounts. Doubtlessly there is some of that in South Sudan. But those carrying the shrapnel of the civil war are also practicing a kind of patronage.

They have binding ties to their family and tribe. So they put large numbers on the payroll — the old Chicago form of development. It is not a recipe for economic growth or political pluralism.

But it does have a useful side effect:

F

MICHAEL GERSON keeping people with guns — and just about everyone in South Sudan has guns — employed and relatively happy.

The fact that South Sudan is a major oil producer only lubricates the patronage machine. As in many other places, resource wealth has the effect of strengthening elites, who have more benefits to distribute.

But the system has a major flaw.

There is a direct relationship between corrupt patronage and instability.

If government positions are a major source of spoils, those excluded are tempted to take positions by force. Two South Sudanese generals are currently in armed rebellion against the government. There are no ideological issues at stake. These military leaders feel cut out of the power arrangement. Killing becomes a form of negotiation — an attempt to gain attention and a rightful share.

This is particularly dangerous in a society with a whirl of centrifugal forces — the existence of 150 tribes, a long history of SPLM infighting, and a tendency for North Sudan to fund and encourage internal conflict within the South.

In a new and fragile state, a great deal depends on the governing style of its first leader. Either a Mandela or a Mugabe may emerge, which places South Sudan in a unique position. The founder of the independence movement, John Garang, died in a plane crash in 2005. Garang was a charis-

matic, educated, Marxist-turned-Christian, rebel leader — a man who viewed tribalism as historical dead wood and wanted to lead southern Sudan into the modern world.

South Sudan’s first president, Salva Kiir, provides a vivid contrast in leadership. Kiir models himself on the chiefs of his tribe, the Dinka. It is an aristocratic, gentlemanly tradition, in which power is exercised through layers of leadership. While Garang could be abrasive, Kiir is more oriented toward consensus.

Other tribes within South Sudan sometimes resent the aristocratic airs of the Dinka. But so far, Kiir’s approach has served him well. After Garang’s death, the SPLM broadly accepted the legitimacy of Kiir’s succession. He has successfully reintegrated many powerful adversaries from the time of the war back into the party.

But Kiir has a challenge. Large-scale corruption has its own internal logic.

It will not, however, result in development. And while Kiir himself is not seen as corrupt, he is broadly criticized for tolerating corruption around him.

In his fine inaugural speech, Kiir was both gracious to enemies — offering rebels full amnesty — and tough on official corruption. But fighting corruption — high-profile prosecutions and the recovery of diverted funds — requires the making of enemies. And Kiir’s efforts may be undermined by the consensus he has cultivated.

The independence of South Sudan is a large, unlikely achievement. But now it faces among the hardest of historical tasks: The liberators of a nation must become the founders of a nation.

The method to the Republicans’ debt-ceiling madness T ROSS

he Republican Party’s strategy in the debt-ceiling negotiations has baffled centrists and vindicated liberals. For months, the party’s leaders have repeatedly turned down deals that would cut spending significantly because their members won’t compromise on taxes. To moderates, this intransigence is inexplicable: Are they crazy?

To the left, it’s all too predictable: See, we told you they were crazy!

But there is a method to the Republicans’ madness, and it rests on four things they know (or at least sense) about the deficit debate that the rest of the political class often ignores.

President Barack Obama wants a right-leaning deficit deal.

For months, liberals have expressed frustration with the president’s deficit strategy. The White House made no effort to tie a debt ceiling vote to the extension of the Bush tax cuts in December.

It pre-emptively conceded that any increase in the ceiling should be accompa-

nied by spending cuts. And every time Republicans dug in their heels, the administration gave ground.

The not-so-secret secret is that the White House has given ground on purpose. Just as Republicans want to use the debt ceiling to make the president live with bigger spending cuts than he would otherwise support, Obama’s political team wants to use the leverage provided by those cra-a-a-zy tea partyers to make Democrats live with bigger spending cuts than they normally would support.

Why? Because the more conservative-seeming the final deal, the better for the president’s re-election effort. In that environment, Republicans have every incentive to push and keep pushing. Since any deal they cut will be used as an election-year prop in 2012, they need to make sure the president actually earns his budget-cutting bona fides.

Tax increases are lurking just over the horizon.

DOUTHAT

The White House hasn’t made spending concessions just because the president wants to campaign as a deficit cutter next year. It has made concessions because it knows that taxes are already scheduled to go up when the Bush-era tax rates expire at the end of 2012.

If Obama gains a second term, congressional Republicans will have to choose between a deal that lets the top rate go back to 39 percent (a $700 billion tax increase over 10 years) or no deal at all (a $3.8 trillion tax increase). Obviously, this dilemma won’t exist if President Mitt Romney occupies 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue. But Obama’s re-election is the more likely scenario, meaning that

any deal struck this summer comes with a very large asterisk attached: Includes tax increases to be named later.

Bipartisan budget deals usually deliver fewer spending cuts than they promise.

The grand bargains of the past haven’t been as bad for conservatives as right-wing mythology sometimes makes them out to be. As a share of GDP, federal spending fell faster in the decade after George H.W. Bush broke his “read my lips, no new taxes” pledge and cut a deficit deal with congressional Democrats than it did during the Reagan era.

But in absolute terms, no bipartisan bargain in the last three decades has delivered anywhere near the spending reductions it promised. Bipartisan tax increases, by contrast, always seem to happen as scheduled.

The long-term deck is stacked in favor of tax increases.

For decades, the tug-of-war between left and right has kept government’s

share of the economy nearly constant, around 19 percent of GDP. But in what you might call the revenge of Lyndon Johnson, the ballooning cost of Medicare is poised to tilt the debate decisively toward liberalism.

Past experience, present politics and future trends all suggest that conservatives should be aiming for the nearly perfect in the current negotiation, rather than the merely good.

But this logic also cuts both ways. Precisely because conservatives have a window of opportunity that they may not have again, there’s also a strong case to be made for striking the biggest possible deal — even if that deal requires concessions that a smaller deal does not.

At the moment, Republicans seem to be moving toward a smaller, purer bargain. Depending on what’s being offered, that may be the right course.

Jaroslav Jirik, 1st Czech in the NHL, dies at 71 The Associated Press PRAGUE — Jaroslav Jirik, the first Czech allowed to play in the NHL during the country’s communist era, died Monday in a plane crash. He was 71.

Jirik died in the city of Brno, about 125 miles from Prague. His ultralight oneseater crashed shortly after takeoff from the Brno Medlanky airport and caught fire, police said.

Jan Brskovsky, president of the Light Aircraft Association of the Czech Republic, said Jirik was an experienced pilot and the exact cause of the accident is not immediately known.

Jirik was cleared to play in the NHL by Czech authorities. He was a right wing who played only three games for the St. Louis Blues in the 1969-70 season. He spent most of the season in the minors with the Kansas City Blues.

Jirik scored 83 goals in his 134 international games for Czechoslovakia, winning the silver medal at the 1968 Winter Olympics in Grenoble and bronze at the 1964 Innsbruck Olympics. In 450 games in the Czech league, he scored 300 goals.

After his playing career, Jirik coached several Czechoslovak clubs and ran the Swiss national team from 1977-80.

‘Dick Van Dyke Show’ writer dies

By Keith Thursby Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Sam Denoff, an Emmy-winning writer on the classic sitcom “The Dick Van Dyke Show” who helped create the Marlo Thomas comedy “That Girl,” has died. He was 83.

Denoff, who had Alzheimer’s disease, died Friday at his home in Los Angeles’ Brentwood section, said his son, Douglas.

Denoff and his longtime writing partner, Bill Persky, had written for Steve Allen and Andy Williams television shows and such series as “McHale’s Navy” when in 1963 they sold a script for “The Dick Van Dyke Show,” which ran on CBS from 1961 to 1966.

Persky and Denoff went on to share two Emmys for the series (one with series creator Carl Reiner) and work not only as writers but as story editors and producers. “When they came upon the scene, they saved my life,” Reiner told the Los Ange-

les Times on Sunday. “These two guys made my life possible after that.”

“Bill kind of understood the love story between Mary and my character,” Van Dyke said.

“Sam wrote more for the office. He liked the one-line jokes, loved to write the insults.”

‘Cutting’ humor Persky said Denoff “had a skewed way of looking at things. Most of his humor was kind of cutting. ... He always knew where the punch line was going to be. Sammy always knew where he was heading and backed up to get there.”

Samuel Denoff was born July 1, 1928, in Brooklyn, the second of two sons of Esther and Harry Denoff. He started studying piano at 5 or 6 and “got to like it,” Denoff told the Archive of American Television. He left Adelphi College in New York before graduating and tried to become a

songwriter.

In 1954, after working as a page at NBC, he was hired at radio station WNEW, where he met Persky. They wrote jingles and other material for disc jockey William B. Williams.

Persky and Denoff moved to California in 1961 to start working in television.

Marlo Thomas wanted Persky and Denoff to write a series for her. “That Girl,” which ran on ABC from 1966 to 1971, starred Thomas as Ann Marie, an aspiring actress in New York. Persky and Denoff wrote the pilot and were executive producers. Denoff even wrote the lyrics to the show’s opening theme.

Persky and Denoff shared an Emmy in 1967 with Reiner, Mel Brooks and Mel Tolkin for writing a special starring Sid Caesar, Imogene Coca, Reiner and Howard Morris, and another as producers with Bill Hobin of a 1968 Bill Cosby special.

Jimmy Roselli, Hoboken’s Infamous impostor Bremen dies at 64 other crooner, dies at 85

By Paul Vitello

New York Times News Service

By Margalit Fox New York Times News Service

He was a skinny ItalianAmerican kid from Hoboken, N.J., who could croon like an angel. Before long, his singing made women swoon and grown men cry. For decades, he sang standards to adoring crowds worldwide, including, notably, “My Way.” He had brown eyes.

Jimmy Roselli, a pop singer widely known as the other crooner from Hoboken, spent his life in the long, slim shadow of Francis Albert Sinatra. But in many traditional Italian-American communities in the eastern United States he was as fiercely venerated as Sinatra, if not more so.

Roselli, who continued performing until he was nearly 80, died June 30, at 85. The cause of his death, at his home in Clearwater, Fla., was complications of a longtime heart ailment, his agent, Alan Salomon, said.

Almost entirely self-taught, Roselli had a lush, quasi-operatic tenor and impeccable diction.

He belonged to the generation of Italian-American pop singers that, besides Sinatra, included Perry Como, Dean Martin and Tony Bennett.

Though he sang in storied nightclubs like the Copacabana in New York, appeared on television and made dozens of recordings, Roselli was far less well known than they.

This obscurity, he long maintained, was brought about through the combined efforts of Sinatra, with whom he had an enduring feud, and local underworld figures, who, when they weren’t weeping along to his sentimental Italian hits, were, he often said, threatening him with a hit of another kind.

But in the end, the single greatest impediment to Roselli’s career appears to have been Roselli himself. Through a combination of constitutional abrasiveness, Old World suspicion of the entertainment business and a deep-seated fear of success, people who knew him have said, he managed to torpedo nearly every opportunity that came his way.

Barry Bremen, a noveltygoods salesman who achieved a kind of flash celebrity in the 1980s as a ubiquitous impostor who slipped past security to shag fly balls in the major leagues, shoot baskets in the NBA and accept somebody else’s Emmy Award on national television, died June 30 in Phoenix. He was 64.

The cause was esophageal cancer, his family said.

Bremen’s career as a selfdescribed “professional impostor,” which anticipated the appetite for faux celebrity later tapped by reality television, got him yelled at a few times and arrested once. But his stunts were generally tolerated at a time when security was far less intense than it would become in a post-Sept. 11 world.

He became friendly with baseball stars, golf pros and the sports broadcaster Dick Schaap, whose son, the author Jeremy Schaap, said at a memorial service that the secret of Bremen’s appeal — and his ability to keep himself out of jail — was his infectious, childlike exuberance.

“Ultimately, ironically, the Great Impostor was the most genuine of men,” Schaap said, using the title coined in news accounts of Bremen’s pranks. “His heart made him special.”

By most accounts, Bremen’s exploits began in 1979, when he managed to sneak onto the floor during warm-ups before the NBA All-Star Game in Detroit, wearing a pilfered team uniform.

Bremen, an athletic 6-foot-4, took several shots before being recognized as an intruder and ejected.

The same year, he slipped onto the sidelines during a football game between the Dallas Cowboys and the Washington Redskins dressed in a custom-made Cowboys cheerleader outfit and a blond wig. (He had dieted and shaved his legs for this one.) The Cowboys kicked him out and sued him but later let the matter go.

In his more conventional life, he represented toy and novelty manufacturers in their dealings with retail stores while living in the Detroit suburbs with his wife and three children.

The only stunt Bremen expressed some regrets about was his 1985 visit to the Emmy

Awards, when he almost walked off with the best supporting actress statue awarded to Betty Thomas, who played Officer Lucille Bates on the police drama “Hill Street Blues.”

Thomas, who had been nominated several times but had never won, was striding down the aisle awash in the applause of her peers when Bremen, with his $300 ticket and rented tuxedo, reached the lectern and whispered to the presenter, the actor Peter Graves, that he would be accepting the statue on her behalf.

“When I got to the stage there

was some strange man accepting,” Thomas told reporters later.

“It’s the nightmare we are all afraid of.”

Bremen was arrested and later fined $175. According to The Los Angeles Times, he apologized to Thomas and told her he had really thought she was not there.

Marissa McGrath, center, leads customers on a tour of old brothel locations around downtown Bellinghham, Wash. The “Sin and Gin Tour” is a weekly walk that explores the history of prostitution and gambling in early and not-so-early Bellingham. Participants also learn about the bootlegging business during Prohibition. During the tour, McGrath dresses in period clothing worn by women in the sex trade.

Washington becomes first state to eliminate its tourism office SEATTLE — An alluring billboard beckoned to motorists on a busy industrial corridor here this spring. It displayed just one image, a panoramic view of a valley and mountains and sunshine, and one word, “Montana.”

“They’ve done a great job, and they’re incredibly visible,” said Tom Norwalk, the president and chief executive of Seattle’s Convention and Visitors Bureau.

“We’re not doing that. We’re going to be fortunate in the next six months to be able to maintain a website.”

Washington State has plenty of beauty of its own, of course, but it will not be paying for billboards featuring Puget Sound or the Space Needle any time soon.

This month, as a result of wide-ranging budget cuts passed this year by the Legislature, Washington became the only state in the nation with no statewide tourism office and no

state money to promote itself to travelers.

The cut has been blamed purely on having to make tough choices between financing programs like public education and paying for glossy marketing campaigns. But at a time when some struggling states are aggressively branding and rebranding themselves to expand tourism, many tourism experts across the country believe Washington will soon regret what it is saving in the short term.

“Our lesson to Washington is that it’s been 18 years since we went dark in 1993, and we still haven’t gotten back to the national market share we had,” said Al White, head of the Colorado Tourism Office, which lost all financing in 1993 and did not regain a steady revenue stream until 2000. “It’s really difficult to affect market share positively, but it’s really easy to affect it negatively if you’re not out there.”

The Washington State Tourism Office employed six people in its office in Olympia and had

a budget of $1.8 million before it closed on June 30. The budget had been $7 million the previous year and more than $10 million several years before that.

Tourism is the fourth-largest industry in Washington, and it has been on an upswing. Last year saw a 7.4 percent increase in visitor spending over 2009, accounting for the second-best year on record, according to tourism experts. The number of international visitors increased more than 30 percent, one of the fastest rates in the country.

In Washington, a range of tourism businesses quickly created the Washington Tourism Alliance in an effort to compensate for losing the state office.

The nonprofit group includes big agencies like Seattle’s Convention and Visitors Bureau and smaller operations like Indianowned casinos and ski resorts.

Next year, it is to take control of the state tourism website, and its leaders say they hope to create a revenue stream for the group similar to California’s.

His lawyers say the 49-yearold Haugen is delusional and not competent.

Haugen was convicted in 1981 of killing a former girlfriend’s mother and in 2003 for killing another inmate.

Three Central Oregonians in top 12 at Northwest Am

Then ... and now

Bend’s Andrew Vijarro is among the leaders after the first day of match play in the Pacific Northwest Men’s Amateur Championship.

Vijarro, a 21-year-old University of Oregon golfer, shot a 1-under-par 71 Monday at Tetherow Golf Club in Bend and is in a tie for fifth place.

He trails leader Chris Williams, of Moscow, Idaho, by three strokes heading into today’s final round of stroke play.

The Northwest Amateur, which has 12 Central Oregon golfers in the 152-player field, starts with two rounds of stroke play to pare the field to 64. Match play begins Wednesday in a single-elimination format.

Bend’s Jesse Heinly and Redmond’s Alex Fitch also fared well Monday, landing in a seven-way tie for 12th place after each fired a 1over-par 73. Bend golfer Taylor Garbutt (+5) is also in the top 64.

Bend golfers Cole Pickavance (+8), Nick Schaan (+10), Jim Tebbs (+11) Roger Eichorn (+13), Cory Schmidt (+18), Ryan Roskowski (+21), Cory Benner (+26) and Redmond’s Andy Rodby (+10) all placed outside the top 64 after the first 18 holes.

The lowest scorers from stroke play earn the top seeds in match play.

The final round of stroke play begins today at 7 a.m.

Admission is free for spectators.

Horse racing returns to Prineville for four nights Bulletin staff report PRINEVILLE — The ponies are back in Prineville.

The Crooked River Roundup horse races start Wednesday night at the Crook County Fairgrounds. The annual event offers four nights of pari-mutuel betting as the races run through Saturday evening.

“When you look at this year’s meet, it won’t be a whole lot different than last year,” said CRR race chair Doug Smith. “We’ve got a pretty successful little event.”

The CRR, now in its 45th year, is one of only five summer horserace series sanctioned by the Oregon Racing Commission each year.

“It’s really a very unique opportunity to see the heart and soul of racing,” Smith said about Oregon’s summer race circuit, which includes events in Union, Grants Pass, Tillamook and Burns in addition to Prineville.

“It’s how racing got started, at these bush meets.”

Approximately $110,000 will be up for grabs during the four nights of racing in Prineville.

Nine races will be run Wednesday and Thursday nights; 10 races will be staged both Friday and Saturday on Prineville’s half-mile track.

“On these half-mile tracks, the action is a lot closer than on big-

LONGVIEW, Wash.

— Cowlitz left fielder Spencer O’Neil singled home Kyle Garlick from second base in the bottom of the ninth inning for a 4-3 win against the Bend Elks in Monday’s West Coast League baseball game.

The Black Bears (16-14) entered the fourth inning ahead 1-0 before Bend took the lead as Ryan Dunn’s sacrifice fly plated Bo Walter, and Michael Tevlin brought home Tyler Christian with an RBI single.

Cowlitz regained the lead in the bottom half of the fourth when Garlick launched a two-run home run off Elks starter Kurt Jahnke. Bend (17-13) added a fifth-inning run off a Black Bears throwing error before succumbing in the final frame.

Justin Maffei hit two for four for the Elks, while Derek Blankenship belted a double.

Both teams will begin a three-game series at Vince Genna Stadium tonight at 6:35 p.m.

ger tracks,” Smith noted. “Even in a 5-furlong race, the horses will cross the grandstands twice. … It’s a lot more exciting than some of the bigger racetracks with empty grandstands that are just there to put the simulcast out.”

The Crooked River Roundup horse race meet is always a popular event, assuring that the Crook County Fairgrounds will be anything but empty this week.

“That’s one of the best things about the races (in Prineville),” Smith said. “You can be sitting in the stands next to one of the horses’ owners or trainers.”

SUMMER SPORTS SERIES

2011 Crooked River Roundup horse races

At the Women’s World Cup, drama without dramatics

By Jere Longman New York Times News Service

COLOGNE, Germany — There often seems to be more diving in soccer than in the Summer Olympics.

Phantom contact, or the slightest collision, can lead to theatrical belly flops and exaggerated somersaults by players deceptively trying to draw fouls on their opponents, kill time or catch a breather when tired. A player writhes on the ground, seemingly unable to continue, and gets whisked away on a

stretcher only to return moments later, miraculously healed.

At least that’s the routine in the men’s game. Viewers of the Women’s World Cup semifinals on Wednesday may notice that, by comparison, the fake collapses are scarce — a curious distinction between the two games that raises tricky questions: Do female players compete with more integrity? Or has the women’s game simply not caught up with the men yet?

S B Football • ESPN files public-records suit against Ohio State: ESPN has sued Ohio State University, alleging the school violated state public records law by denying requests for items related to an NCAA investigation that has led to the loss of football coach Jim Tressel and star quarterback Terrelle Pryor. The lawsuit filed Monday in the Ohio Supreme Court asks justices to order the university to release the records and pay attorney fees and court costs.

Among records sought are correspondences referring to Ted Sarniak, reportedly a mentor of Pryor in his hometown Jeannette, Pa. Tressel forwarded e-mails to Sarniak regarding accusations that players had sold game memorabilia in violation of NCAA rules. Among its arguments, ESPN says the university cited an inapplicable federal student-records privacy law in denying records. Ohio State spokesman Jim Lynch says the university believes it has followed applicable law. He says ESPN has received a “voluminous amount” of information.

• Ex-NFL Bengal killed by California deputy in scuffle: A California deputy shot and killed a former running back for the Cincinnati Bengals in front of a convenience store after he allegedly hit an officer with a bag holding two cans of beer. David Lee “Deacon” Turner, 56, played with the Bengals from 1978 to 1980. Deputies who were investigating reports of teenagers asking adults to buy alcohol and cigarettes approached Turner on Sunday as he left the convenience store with his 19-year-old son and a 16year-old juvenile. The deputies detained Turner while they investigated. The sheriff’s office said Turner initially complied but then decided to leave, and the scuffle occurred when deputies tried to stop the former NFL player. Deputy Aaron Nadal was hit on the back of the head with a bag holding two, 24-ounce cans of beer before Deputy Wesley Kraft drew his handgun and fired twice at Turner, authorities said. Friends and family told the The Bakersfield Californian they have trouble believing authorities’ account of the story. Kraft is on administrative leave while sheriff’s detectives investigate the shooting.

• Lawyers in NFL labor dispute meet: Less than two weeks before some training camps are scheduled to open, the NFL remains in labor limbo, with only the lawyers for both sides meeting. Attorneys met Monday in New York to clarify language from previous discussions, and will do so again today. Originally, owners and players were to get together for more negotiations today, but now won’t do so before Wednesday. Several issues are close to resolution, the most significant being the split of total revenues between owners and players. Should negotiations last beyond July 19 — or the owners’ meeting two days later — that could lead to even deeper cuts in the preseason.

• Police say Steelers’ Ward failed field sobriety test: Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Hines Ward had glassy, bloodshot eyes and failed field sobriety tests during a traffic stop in Atlanta that landed him a drunken driving charge, according to a police report released Monday. A transit police officer pulled Ward over just before 2:30 a.m.

Saturday after he left his lane and at one point hit a curb in his gray Aston Martin, the report says. The transit police officer called a DeKalb County police officer, who wrote in the report that the former Super Bowl MVP and reigning “Dancing With the Stars” champ smelled strongly of alcohol. The officer asked Ward to get out of the car and administered a series of field sobriety tests, including a hand-held breath test that registered positive for alcohol, the report said. Ward could not keep his balance and mixed up and omitted letters in the alphabet, the report says. Atlanta lawyer Andrew Ree on Saturday released a statement saying the 35-year-old Ward was not impaired by alcohol while driving and cooperated fully with police.

Auto Racing • Kentucky Speedway offers ticket exchange to fans: Kentucky Speedway on Monday offered a ticket exchange to fans who were stuck in traffic and missed this weekend’s inaugural Sprint Cup Series race. Speedway Motorsports Inc. president Marcus Smith said fans can swap their unused Kentucky tickets for entry into events at any 2011 race at an SMI track. The tickets can also be swapped for entry into the 2012 race at Kentucky. Fans were stuck in traffic for hours as they tried to get into Saturday night’s race at the track in Sparta, Ky. Many fans said once they did get to the gate, they were turned away by police because the track had no more parking spaces.

The track announced a week before the race that it had sold out all of its 107,000 seats for a Cup race the region had been hoping to host for at least a decade. SMI spent millions on capital improvement and updating the infrastructure to the speedway, which was acquired in 2008.

CYCLING: TOUR DE FRANCE

Contador, Schleck waiting for Pyrenees

By Jerome Pugmire The Associated Press

THIEZAC, France — Defending champion Alberto Contador and main rival Andy Schleck have yet to properly test each other in this year’s Tour de France — they have been too busy avoiding serious injury in nine days of manic racing, which came to a temporary halt with Monday’s rest day.

Although Contador has already crashed twice, the Spaniard was somewhat lucky to escape with just a bruised right knee, given that several other riders had to drop out with more serious injuries. They include Kazakh star Alexandre Vinokourov (broken thighbone) and Britain’s Bradley Wiggins (broken collarbone).

Also, Alexandr Kolobnev of Russia became the first cyclist at this year’s Tour de France to fail a doping test, the International Cycling Union said. Kolobnev was in 69th place heading into today’s 10th stage, but his Katusha team issued a statement saying he is out of the Tour after deciding to “suspend himself according to UCI rules.”

The UCI said a urine sample collected from Kolobnev last Wednesday tested positive for a substance called hydrochlorothiazide, a diuretic that can also be used as a masking agent hiding the presence of other drugs. It came on the Tour’s fifth stage — a flat sprint from Carhaix to Cap Frehel.

Schleck, the Tour runner-up to Contador the past two years, is grateful to have enjoyed more luck than his rivals in avoiding injury.

Contador crashed early in Sunday’s ninth stage — in which Vinokourov was later hurt — and banged the same knee he hurt falling in Stage 5.

“It’s sad to see to what degree luck has influenced the course of the race,” Schleck said Monday.

“You can avoid crashes to a certain extent, by staying at the front of the bunch and being very aware of possible dangers.”

But no race strategy could account for the fact a Tour car knocked Spanish rider Juan Antonio Flecha into Dutchman Johnny Hoogerland on Sunday.

“I was bleeding everywhere,” Flecha said Monday.

Said Schleck: “It’s really out of your hands. We feel very fortunate that none of our team members was involved in a big crash.”

With Contador’s sore knee still bothering him, Schleck will gauge the three-time champion’s true fitness in the Pyrenees climbs starting Thursday. Schleck is in the driver’s seat as Contador needs to make up time, a role reversal from last year when Contador beat Schleck by 39 seconds to win his third Tour.

Andy Schleck, of Luxembourg, looks at the photographer during the ninth stage of the Tour de France cycling race starting in Issoire and finishing in Saint Flour, central France, Sunday. of it.

Like the toss of a coin, Schleck got the good call that day. He is 1 minute, 30 seconds ahead of Contador in the overall standings, and 11 seconds behind two-time Tour runner-up Cadel Evans of Australia, the other main contender.

“So far, so good. The team has been great, keeping me out of trouble, and if it could continue like this I would be very, very happy,” Evans said.

After Monday’s rest day, there are

two flat stages for sprinters before riders enter the Pyrenees in Stage 12, with its colossal climb up Col du Tourmalet — one of the Tour’s most famed and feared ascents.

That stage is so demanding it could decimate the field.

Frenchman Thomas Voeckler leads the race after taking the yellow jersey from Thor Hushovd, while Spaniard Luis Leon Sanchez, who won Stage 9, is second overall.

But neither is a Tour contender and both should soon wilt.

WASHINGTON — The attorney for Roger Clemens gave his strongest hint yet that the former baseball star may not testify in his trial on charges of lying to Congress about using performance-enhancing drugs as he pressed potential jurors not to hold Clemens’ silence against him.

Several members of the jury pool under selection in Washington federal court said they would weigh evidence from both sides before deciding on a verdict. The judge and Clemens’ attorney had to repeatedly explain the legal principle of innocent until proven guilty and that prosecutors alone bear the burden of proving his guilt.

It’s a common issue in criminal cases, but the comments from Clemens’ attorney Rusty Hardin show the defense team is at least considering not putting the ex-pitcher on the stand.

“Maybe you won’t get both sides,” Hardin told a government consultant who indicated she wanted to hear Clemens prove his innocence. She eventually said she understood she must start off by assuming he’s innocent until the government persuades her otherwise.

“Would you require him to testify to find him not guilty?” Hardin asked another panelist.

“I would like to hear from both sides,” she responded.

“That’s the point. Most people would,” Hardin said, and then explained she can’t hold it against him.

“You mean you aren’t going to say anything at all?” she asked.

“We may, we may not,” he said.

Under coaching from Hardin, she eventually said she would find him not guilty if she had a reasonable doubt even without hearing from him.

A retiree was dismissed after he said he said he would suspect Clemens was guilty if he chose not to testify. “I would kind of feel like what the government says might be true,” the man said. U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton responded, “You can’t do that.” But the man said he couldn’t be sure he wouldn’t hold it against Clemens.

Clemens watched without speaking during three days of intense questioning of 50 potential jurors that qualified 35 people for potential service.

Fifteen were turned away for reasons including medical issues, an inability to commit to a trial expected to last into August and biases against either Clemens or Congress for even investigating drugs in baseball.

Walton plans to have prosecutors and defense attorneys exercise their preemptory, or unexplained, challenges this afternoon to narrow those qualified to a panel of 12 jurors and up to four alternates and then have opening arguments Wednesday.

Clemens is charged with six felonies for telling Congress under oath that he never used performance-enhancing drugs. He stands by the denial, but prosecutors say they can prove that is a lie.

Reverend urges All-Stars to speak out against law

By Ronald Blum The Associated Press

PHOENIX — The Rev. Jesse Jackson is urging baseball’s AllStars to speak out against the Arizona immigration law, saying they should follow the example set by Jackie Robinson when he broke the game’s color barrier more than a half-century ago.

The sport’s national spotlight returned this week to the Sonoran Desert for the first time since Luis Gonzalez’s ninth-inning single off Mariano Rivera won Game 7 of the 2001 World Series for the Diamondbacks, landing the All-Stars — those who didn’t drop out — in the hot debate over the law known as SB 1070.

Baseball Commissioner Bud Selig ignored calls by some to move today’s game.

“It’s obviously too late for them to withdraw from the scene,” Jackson said Monday during a telephone interview with The Associated Press. “I think they should play, and they should speak out, which would be of value.”

As players got ready to gather on the air-conditioned diamond under the Chase Field roof, most of them declined to discuss the law. Enacted last year, it requires immigrants to obtain or carry registration papers and calls for police, while enforcing other laws, to question people’s immigration status if there is a reasonable suspicion they’re in the country illegally.

Major provisions were blocked last July by U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton, a decision upheld in April in a 2-1 vote by the 9th U.S. Circuit court of Appeals. Gov. Jan Brewer intends to ask the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the injunction.

Boston slugger David Ortiz was one of the few players willing to talk about the law.

“I’m an immigrant. I definitely would never agree with any treating of immigrants bad — the wrong way,” said Ortiz, who is from the Dominican Republic.

Still, he won’t get involved with protests.

“I’m not here for that,” Ortiz said.

Ortiz captained the AL team in Monday night’s Home Run Derby. Sharon Robinson, daughter of the late Jackie Robinson, was on the field before the event for a “Breaking Barriers” presentation.

More typical during player availabilities at the cactus-filled Arizona Biltmore grounds was the response from New York Mets outfielder Carlos Beltran, who will be the National League’s designated hitter.

“It’s something that doesn’t have to do anything with sport,” he said. “It’s something that affects a certain part of the population.”

Somos America, a Phoenix-based Hispanic civil rights group, asked fans, players and coaches to wear a white ribbon showing solidarity against the law.

“Baseball was on the cutting edge of changing the culture with the admission of Jackie Robinson to the game. It changed the American culture in fundamental ways beyond the baseball field,” Jackson said. “Some players or some players’ families could be disadvantaged or apprehended by that law in Arizona, so it’s very risky. I would hope now that they are there, they would at least speak out clearly that that law is in conflict with national law on immigration. States don’t set immigration policy.

“Baseball players cannot negotiate away their dignity. I’m glad Jackie Robinson spoke up for dignity beyond the baseball field, and I’d glad Ortiz has spoken up for dignity.”

Sixteen players picked as All-Stars dropped out: four are on the disabled list, Alex Rodriguez had knee surgery Monday, and Ryan Braun and Placido Polanco missed a half-dozen games or more heading into the break. Six pitchers were knocked off the ros-

Ellsbury Continued from D1 He’s an All-Star again this season, but this time in the big leagues: Tonight, at Chase Field in Phoenix, he will represent the Boston Red Sox as a reserve for the American League in the 2011 Midsummer Classic.

The All-Star designation is a first in the big leagues for the 27-year-old Ellsbury, who is in his fifth major league season.

But before he was a rising star with the Red Sox, before he helped lead Oregon State to its first College World Series appearance in more than 50 years in 2005, before batting .357 as an 18-year-old for the Bend Elks in summer 2002, and even before an all-state senior year at Madras High School, Ellsbury was taking his first steps toward stardom in Jefferson County Little League.

“He was always the best athlete,” remembers Dallas Stovall, who coached an 11-year-old Ellsbury who had made the Jefferson County All-Star team for the Oregon District 5 12-and-under tournament. “I had a lot of other good players. But he was always, physically, the top athlete.”

So Stovall made Ellsbury his catcher — even though Ellsbury is a left-hander and the catching position is typically occupied by a right-handed thrower.

“I think it’s too bad that Jeter in particular is not here, because of what he accomplished over the weekend,” said Philadelphia Phillies chairman Bill Giles, referring to Jeter’s 3,000th hit Saturday. “I think it is a bit of a problem and baseball should study it.”

Philadelphia’s Roy Halladay will start for the National League, following Vida Blue, Roger Clemens and Randy Johnson as the fourth pitcher to make an All-Star start for both leagues. Halladay, 11-3 with a 2.45 ERA, started the 2009 All-Star game while with the Toronto Blue Jays. The Los Angeles Angels’ Jered Weaver, 11-4 with a 1.86 ERA, starts for AL. While the temperature outside Chase Field has been as high as 118 this month, an 8,000-ton cooling system keeps it in the 70s inside the ballpark. It was 99 outside and 73 inside for the start of the Home Run Derby, where left-handed hitters hoped to make a splash — in the right-field swimming pool.

With the roof closed, as it’s been for all games since June 17, there’s no fear of haboobs. Those are the massive dust storms, such as the mile-high wall of brown that blew through Phoenix last week.

The AL won 12 straight All-Star games played to a decision before Brian McCann’s three-run double in the seventh off Matt Thornton boosted the NL to a 3-1 victory last year in Anaheim.

It was the first time the NL won since the All-Star game started determining home-field advantage for the World Series in 2003, and the San Francisco Giants went on to beat the Texas Rangers in five games for the title.

“Home field can be a very important component in winning the world championship,” Weaver said. “So I think it’s a great thing for the best players in the world to go out there and compete and work for that home-field advantage.”

“That was never going to be a permanent spot for him,” Stovall reflects. “But he was the best guy I had, and you’ve got to have a good catcher. That way he was in every play, and he’d see the ball more, and I think that made him a better hitter too.”

Stovall saw other qualities in young Ellsbury that hinted at a successful future in baseball.

“He never criticized a teammate,” Stovall recalls. “Jacoby was always enthusiastic. He was quiet, but he’d get vocal if he needed to.”

Stovall was an assistant coach for Moschetti with the Jefferson County Senior Little League All-Star squad in 1999. That team, with Ellsbury playing center field and batting leadoff, and with what the coaches remember as a strong supporting cast, won district and state

championships before losing in the finals of a six-state regional tournament.

“We just had a great bunch of kids who basically all grew up together,” says Moschetti. “And Jacoby … he was an extraordinary athlete.”

Like many Central Oregonians, Ellsbury’s former coaches have payed close attention to his ascent through high school and college, then through the minor leagues and to a World Series appearance in 2007 — his first season with the Red Sox. “Having coached him and being around him when he was younger, and then watching him in high school, I knew he’d be a great college player,” says Moschetti, who subscribes to NESN (New England Sports Network) so he can see virtually all of Ellsbury’s games with the Red Sox. “But to say I knew then that he’d be doing what he’s doing now … to be honest, I’m not gonna say I did.

“You just don’t think a kid out of a little town like Madras, Oregon … ” Stovall says he records many of Ellsbury’s televised games and, as a self-described “technique junkie,” breaks down his former player’s swing. He has not, however, been moved to offer advice.

“Oh no,” says Stovall. “He’s doing fine without me.”

D4 Tuesday, July 12, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

Drama Continued from D1 “I actually think women don’t like that side of the game,” said Julie Foudy, a former U.S. national team captain. “But my cynical side tells me that as women get more sophisticated and watch the game more and the stakes get higher, it will become more prevalent.”

The act of diving, as the fake falls are called, is either crafty or cynical, artful gamesmanship or outright cheating, depending on one’s view. While the use of the ruse was clearly evident on Sunday during the United States’ riveting World Cup quarterfinal victory over Brazil, the relative lack of this tactic in women’s soccer was captured in a study conducted at Wake Forest University. Researchers determined that women are much less likely than men to dive and fake injuries, an act also known as simulation.

The study reviewed video of 47 matches from the 2003 and 2007 Women’s World Cups and compared injury rates with men’s matches in regional tournaments. Apparent injuries were divided into two categories. They were considered “definite” if a player was replaced within five minutes or experienced visible bleeding. Otherwise, the injuries were considered “questionable.”

Researchers found that an average of 11.26 apparent injuries occurred in men’s matches, compared with 5.74 in women’s matches.

Those considered “definite” involved 13.7 percent of injuries for women and 7.2 percent for men.

“We can say that men writhe on the ground looking like they’re injured more than women, almost twice as often,” said Dr. Daryl Rosenbaum, the lead author of the study, which was published in the July issue of the journal Research in Sports Medicine. “And when players are apparently injured, the percentage when it was authentic by our criteria was twice as high with women. You could trust more that they were injured.”

Still, the study did find evidence of diving in women’s soccer, and it played a key role in the outcome of Sunday’s match.

Late in overtime, the Brazilian defender Erika dropped to the turf in front of her goal with no American player nearby. She was placed on a stretcher, only to climb off and soon return to the field. It was a clear act of feigning injury to kill time, as Brazil was trying to protect its 2-1 lead. Erika was given a yellow-card warning for stalling, which extended the game and allowed the Americans to tie the score. They won in a penalty-kick shootout.

“It’s frustrating to play against that,” said Christie Rampone, captain of the U.S. team, which will face France in the semifinals Wednesday.

At the same time, Rampone said before the match, “When you see the calls being made, you ask, ‘Why aren’t we doing it?’ You start questioning yourself.”

The Wake Forest researchers found six apparent injuries per match during the 2007 Women’s World Cup, while team physicians reported only 2.3 injuries per match. For the 2003 and 2007 World Cups, the rate of “definite” injuries was .78 per match, compared with 4.96 “questionable” injuries per match.

“It looks like there may be some simulation in the women’s game,” said Rosenbaum, a sports medicine physician at the Wake Forest School of Medicine who also serves as a team doctor for the U.S. Soccer Federation.

But with the rates so different between men and women, questions arise about whether simulation is due to the nature of soccer or reflects inherent differences among the participants.

Rosenbaum offers two theories. One is that the greater visibility and higher financial stakes in men’s soccer leads to more gamesmanship. “You could say the pressure and money are more immense, so they’ll resort to anything to avoid embarrassment to the country or to the team,” Rosenbaum said. “But women will argue that they care as much.”

Second, Rosenbaum said, the larger size and greater speed of men may lead to more frequent and forceful contact between players.

Brandi Chastain, who scored the winning penalty kick and famously launched a jerseywaving celebration for the U.S. in the 1999 Women’s World Cup, offered a third theory: women’s soccer has more integrity, at least for now.

She noted that men’s soccer had a head start, organizing its first World Cup in 1930, while women did not hold a world championship until 1991. Leaders of the pioneering U.S. teams of the 1990s steered away from gamesmanship, Chastain said.

“They didn’t like cheating,” she said. “They wanted to play straight up — you give your best, I give my best and the best effort will win.”

Foudy, the former U.S. captain who is now an analyst for ESPN, said she thought men had embraced a nuance of the game that women are still learning.

“Men have a tendency to draw the foul much better than women,” she said. “They know and understand pressure, when to go down even though they’re not hit hard. Some are brilliant at it. Women play far too honest sometimes.

They take the hit, ride the tackle and stay on their feet. I do think that will change.”

The Wake Forest study indicated that female players from South America tend to dive somewhat more often than other women, Rosenbaum said. This was no surprise to U.S. players who say that the Brazilians, in particular, are practiced in the clever art of simulation, perhaps because they grew up immersed in a soccer culture where it is commonplace.

Sunday, the Brazilians claimed that Abby Wambach, the top U.S. forward, was diving.

Candidly, Wambach said beforehand that she has used the tactic, but made a distinction between what she considered legitimate simulation and unsporting embellishment.

“If a player said they never dived, they’re lying,” Wambach said. “But no one wants to be known for that. If you don’t get touched and you go down just to get a penalty, that’s cheating. If you get hit not hard enough to be knocked down or knocked off the ball but physical enough that you might lose possession, I understand.”

GOLF

Ryu beats Seo in playoff to capture U.S. Women’s Open

By Eddie Pells The Associated Press

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — As she stood on the 18th green drenched in champagne, holding a trophy and wearing a mile-wide smile, there was no doubt about it: So Yeon Ryu is the brightest star on a South Korean golf roster that has more than its share of them.

The 21-year-old won the U.S. Women’s Open on Monday, first with a birdie on No. 18 that tied her Korean rival, Hee Kyung Seo, then with a shotmaking clinic over a three-hole playoff to beat Seo by three shots.

It was the latest — and most emphatic — statement about the pecking order of women’s golf in South Korea, where the sport’s stars turn into the country’s icons and Se Ri Pak is already a legend at age 33.

“When I was started golf, Se Ri Pak won the U.S. Women’s Open tournament, so this tournament is really special for me,” Ryu said.

Starting on the 16th hole, Ryu played the threehole playoff in 2-under par, all but sealing it when she hit three perfect shots to the green on the par-5 17th and made the putt for a birdie while Seo drove into a bunker and had to scramble for bogey.

For good measure, Ryu hit her approach on 18 to 4 feet for another birdie, which sparked a champagne-spraying celebration on the 18th green. Pak was among the South Korean contingent that ran out to douse Ryu in her glow-in-the-dark orange shirt and cap.

Great as the moment was, it was the birdie Ryu made on 18 about an hour earlier that was the defining moment of the tournament.

Trailing by one to an opponent who had closed out her round before darkness stopped play the previous night, Ryu stood behind her ball in the fairway, plumbed her 6-iron to her nose, then closed one eye to take dead aim at the 170-yard shot. She drew the shot uphill, over the lake and landed the ball 6 feet from the hole. Moments later, she slammed the putt home to pull into a tie. She ended up with two birdies in the span of an hour on a hole that yielded only 28 over five days.

Certainly nobody can ever say Ryu backed into this title, won on a 7,000-yard Broadmoor course that got hit by storms every day, turning it into a test of endurance and patience for some players and a sporadic series of starts and stops for others.

“It’s never over ’til it’s over, especially in these things,” Cristie Kerr said. “People really want it, and that was a gutsy putt.”

Kerr also had a chance. She came to the Broadmoor on Monday trailing by two with two holes to play, but couldn’t convert a 12-foot putt from the fringe on 17 to make things interesting. She finished third at 1-under par.

Angela Stanford birdied 16 to also give herself

Chris Carlson / The Associated Press

So Yeon Ryu kisses the championship trophy after a playoff win over Hee Kyung Seo at the Women’s U.S. Open golf tournament at the Broadmoor Golf Club on Monday in Colorado Springs, Colo. an outside shot. But she, too, made par on 17 and wound up even par and in fourth place.

That left it a match between the two South Koreans who have been doing their dance for the past few years, jostling for position on the tour back home, deciding whether a permanent move to America would benefit them most, taking turns in the headlines and on the winner’s podium.

Seo appeared to be ahead coming into this tournament, breaking through on the LPGA Tour last year with a victory that sent her over to America for good in 2011. She might have cemented her hold with a victory this week and she was poised for it Sunday night.

She played 36 holes over 14 hours Sunday and finished both rounds in 3-under 68 to end regulation at 3-under 281. But there was one hiccup: A short putt that rimmed out on No. 17 when she was rushing to finish — a ball hit while the wind was whipping, leaving her uneasy as she stood over it. It

left her at 3 under instead of 4 under and gave Ryu a glimmer of hope.

“I think one mistake yesterday on the 17th green, that’s the one,” Seo said.

Seo came to the course Monday knowing she might be able to collect the trophy without hitting a shot. She was warming up on the driving range when she heard a roar from the 18th grandstand. It was Ryu’s approach shot.

“So, at that time, I was thinking about, ‘Oh, the time is now.’ ” She had to go out for three more holes and is now 0-2 against Ryu in head-to-head playoffs. They also went three holes at the Chinese Ladies Open in 2009.

Seo was graceful in discussing the tournament and what it means for her country.

“I think they were cheering for both of us,” she said. “So, yeah, I feel very happy that a South Korean player won this great, big tournament.”

BEIJING — Yao Ming’s expected retirement could diminish the NBA’s once-burgeoning popularity in China, with many fans saying they would no longer watch games.

“What’s the point of watching NBA now?” asked an online user called Lubingxia on Sina Weibo, a Chinese Twitter-like site.

An online poll on Weibo by Monday lunchtime showed that 57 percent of respondents would stop watching the NBA after Yao’s retirement.

The 7-foot-6 center is expected to announce July 20 at a news conference that he’s retiring from the NBA after nine seasons because of leg and foot injuries.

He boosted the popularity of the basketball league in China and throughout Asia, spiking merchandise sales and TV ratings for games after the Houston Rockets made him the top overall pick in the 2002 draft.

The 30-year-old Yao has missed 250 regular-season games over the past six seasons.

“He is one of the most influential people in today’s society — especially to those born in the ’80s,” said Ren Bo, a 25-year-old sports trainer. “It’s probably going to be a while until we see another Yao Ming.”

Yahoo! Sports first reported that Yao is retiring.

A person with direct knowledge of his decision confirmed to The Associated Press that Yao decided the risk of another injury and subsequent rehabilitation was too great.

The news upset fans in China, where he has been praised as a role model for the past decade, and strengthened that image by carrying his country’s flag during the opening ceremony of the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

“It is Yao Ming who makes the kids in China like basketball and it’s also Yao Ming who makes the kids know how a real professional basketball player should be,” said Xu Jicheng, a longtime basketball commentator.

“I’m not thrilled about his retirement, but I will still support him. Millions of Chinese still idolize him,” said 24-year-old Guo Ju Fei, a small business owner.

Some online comments conveyed sadness that his retirement would mean the end of a great era and that they would not get to see him at the 2012 London Olympics. There also was some anger that his injuries kept him from reaching his peak.

“I still haven’t recovered from the fact that Yao is retiring. The feeling is worse than being dumped,” wrote one online user going by the name of Xie Chen.

Track and field • Central Oregonians excel at Hershey’s state meet: A number of Central Oregon participants fared well at the Hershey’s Track & Field Games state meet earlier this month. In all, more than three dozen kids attended the state meet, staged July 2 at Hayward Field in Eugene, and they took home victories in seven events. Central Oregon winners of individual events were Dawson Cockman (11-12 boys 100 meters), Tucker Flannery (11-12 boys softball throw), Piper Flannery (11-12 girls 200), Olivia Brooks (11-12 girls 800) and Bethany Bachmeier (13-14 girls softball throw). Two relays also captured 400 relay titles. Brooks, Anniston Ward, Megan Cornett and Meghan Day won the 11-12 girls relay. Molly Boyle, Bachmeier, Michaela Miller and

Sofia Ellington won the 13-14 girls relay.

The first-place marks from each event at the state meet will now be pooled with others in the region, which also consists of Washington, Idaho, Montana, Alaska, British Columbia and Yukon Territory.

The participant with the best mark in each event from that group will be selected to represent the region at the Hershey’s national meet, scheduled for Aug. 6 in Hershey, Pa. The regional team will be announced on Friday.

Triathlon • Thomas in REV3 event in Portland: Former Bend resident Jesse Thomas raced to fourth place in the professional men’s field in the inaugural REV3 triathlon staged at Blue Lake Park in Fairview on Sunday.

Golf Continued from D1 Not only is the weather practically perfect, but with 30 courses scattered throughout Central Oregon, you also have plenty of places to play your new sport.

If you have little or no experience with golf, lessons are probably the best way to start out.

“If you want to take up golf, learn from a professional instructor,” says Kenneth Johnson, swing educator at Missing Link Family Golf Center in Redmond. “Stay with them if you can.”

The cost of lessons can vary. For example, junior camps at Missing Link cost $50 for four hours of instruction, while a 40-minute private lesson at Eagle Crest Resort in Redmond costs $69 for adults, and weekly ladies clinics there are just $15.

Wherever you go — and pretty much every golf course in the region offers lessons — Johnson recommends looking for courses that offer good practice facilities such as driving ranges, putting greens and holes that lend themselves to working on your short game.

“That is very critical if you want to reduce your score,” Johnson notes. “If you want to become positive in your game, you’d like to learn from the green back.”

When you are checking out golf courses for lessons, also keep the courses themselves in mind, as you will eventually venture out on them.

(That is the point isn’t it?) Some courses, such as those with flatter profiles and/or less yardage tend to be more suitable for beginners than others. So do yourself a favor and begin playing on courses such as Missing Link, the Challenge Course at Eagle Crest Resort or Desert Peaks in Madras before you decide to tackle Pronghorn or Tetherow in Bend or Crosswater in Sunriver.

As far as equipment goes, Johnson advises starting out by renting some clubs. Work on mastering the fundamentals, start seeing improvement and decide you are committed to the game. When you reach that point, Johnson says, that is the time to get fitted for your own set of clubs.

From there, the world is your golf course, as you can spend years to come golfing in any number of locations trying to master the sport.

“Golf is for a lifetime,” Johnson says. “And you’re learning all the time.”

My turn Prior to a couple of weeks ago, my

Check out Zack Hall’s weekly column every Wednesday for all things golf in Central Oregon. The Bulletin’s helpful Central Oregon Golf Guide can also be found online at www.bendbulletin. com, in the lobby at The Bulletin and at many area golf courses. experience with golf was basically nonexistent: a few rounds of miniature golf over the years and one stop at the driving range about a decade ago. So I had few conceptions about what to expect when I showed up at Missing Link for a lesson with Johnson.

He started me out with some coaching on my golf swing and without having me hit any golf balls, and I spent much of the first part of the lesson trying to get my mechanics down. I have heard that swinging a golf club is a bit of an unnatural movement, and I agree with the observation, but I did work to get the basics down. I found myself growing interested in the complexities of the movement, and I was constantly working on one aspect of my swing, only to find that then I needed to correct something else.

Next, Johnson moved me to the putting green, where I transferred the movements I was learning to the short game. This part of the lesson went especially well, and I performed many of the drills my instructor put me through with relative accuracy.

For the final part of the lesson, Johnson took me to the driving range and allowed me to take full swings at the ball. I would like to tell you that I was immediately able to launch the ball 150 yards with a picturesque swing, but that wouldn’t be entirely accurate. I drove a few balls a fair distance in the air, but that was not the most common outcome of my swing. And, in all honesty, I even whiffed at a few, but I found that more amusing than frustrating.

Overall, though, for my first lesson, I think that I fared pretty well.

And though I have not been much interested in golf in the past, I can see now why so many spend so much time and effort — not to mention money — trying to master the game. As I could tell after just a couple hours, every golfer always has some aspect of the game to improve upon, whether a newbie or a major champion.

If you decide golf is for you, you will need to invest in some equipment. Foremost among what you need is a set of clubs, of course, as it probably is not ideal to borrow or rent clubs forever.

Nelson Von Stroh, general manager at Pro Golf of Bend, recommends beginners purchase a starter set of golf clubs.

That way, he points out, new golfers who are determining their commitment to the game can start off with a solid set of equipment that should last without spending a lot of money. You can always demo or borrow clubs down the road if you decide you need to add to your collection.

Von Stroh also notes that novices, who tend to not possess a repeating — or consistent — golf swing, should take care to buy properly fitting clubs. Features to pay attention to, he adds, include club length, flex and grip size.

A golf glove for your nondominant hand, though not mandatory, can be useful, Von Stroh says, to protect against blisters.

“Your right hand is just there for the ride,” Von Stroh explains of right-handed golfers. “Your left hand controls the golf swing, so that’s why you wear (a glove) on the left hand.”

While you are out on the course, make sure to mind your feet as you will

be walking around on them for several hours.

Von Stroh says today’s golf shoes are similar to running shoes and provide comfort and lateral support. The spikes on the bottom also protect against slippage and help golfers grip the ground when they are swinging the golf club.

As for golf balls, Von Stroh recommends using the same ball — or at least a similar type of ball — each time you play.

“The consistency of how the ball reacts to their game — not as important for a beginner as it is for an expert, but it is a factor,” Von Stroh explains.

Golf is supposed to be fun. After all, it is a game, right? Keep that in mind when you are out on the links, and do yourself a favor and relax.

“We’re out here to have some fun, and we’re out here just to enjoy the beauty of the surroundings,” Johnson notes. “And you can’t do it, in my own opinion … when you’re either under tension, stress, anxiety and, most of all, the fear of failure.”

3. Slow down your game.

Some of us may have the tendency to try to swing as

hard and as fast as we can at that tiny little golf ball.

While it may seem a bit counterintuitive, taking a bit of the edge off your swing might actually be more helpful.

“Our brain traps us, and we have a tough time slowing down … letting our core power muscles — which is the hips, the legs, the back, the shoulders — catch up with the fast proactive muscles — the arms and the hands,” Johnson says. “That’s the biggest tip I can give, is to slow down: Allow your core muscles to swing through the ball.”

— Amanda Miles

Golf quick tips: The essentials 1. Practice a little every day.

Being persistent in your game is one key to improvement.

“You want to pick that golf club up every day and swing,” recommends Kenneth Johnson, swing educator at Missing Link Family Golf Center in Redmond. “You don’t have to be at the golf course to swing it. You can swing at home for five minutes, 10 minutes, just to get the rhythm and finding where the bottom of your swing arc is.”

2. Maintain a proper perspective.

ack in 1991, the members of the brand-new High Desert Corvette Club took a memorable first trip together.

“During that first year, our first tour, we went through Sisters just after the (rodeo) parade, recalls cofounder Kemi Broadley, 47. “Our Corvette got hit by a tractor with a drunk driver on it,” she says. “It got mentioned by Paul Harvey News; you know, ‘a Corvette got overtaken by a tractor.’ That was kind of funny.”

She and husband Mike, 63, had decided to start the club in June of 1991 after spending a year driving across the hill to participate with a Portland club also dedicated to the car.

Today they are still active in the club and sharing a blue 2000 Roadster. The first meeting she recalls was held at the former Rolaine’s Cantina on Bend’s south side, with just seven or eight Chevrolet Corvette aficionados in attendance.

You may not be able to see the jet stream, but this week you can see a whole lot of Airstreams, those aluminum trailers resembling elongated metal toasters.

In fact, if you visit Paulina Lake in the Deschutes National Forest south of Bend later this week, you’re likely to see some of the Airstreams expected to attend this weekend’s Paulina Lake Rally. Mona Heath, cohost of the rally, said last week she expected 25 Airstreams to participate in the event, which runs Thursday through Sunday.

Open house may lead to open drawers, too

A doc team aims for the bleachers

By Mike Haleny

‘The Franchise’

New York Times News Service

Dear Abby: During this economic recession, may I offer a reminder to your readers who may have their homes on the market and available for showing? Someone entered my home during an open house and rummaged through my drawers. The thief made off with my cherished sapphire engagement ring, an emerald band and several other sentimental pieces.

I’m ashamed for having underestimated people’s dishonesty.

I never assumed anyone would coldheartedly dig through my clothes and belongings to find hidden valuables — especially with a Realtor onsite. I’m an emotional wreck over the loss of these precious sentimental keepsakes that I will never see again.

Please remind your readers whose homes are on the market to be smart and remove all valuables from the site before showings.

— Disillusioned in San Marcos, Calif.

Dear Disillusioned: I’m sorry you had to learn this lesson the hard way. It’s unfortunate, but there are individuals who use open houses to case homes and loot items from trusting homeowners. That’s why it’s important to not only remove personal financial information, jewelry and other items of value to a secure location where they can’t be pilfered, but also any prescription medications from bathrooms before a showing.

Any stranger entering the house should sign a registration sheet and show identification before being shown around, and even then no one should be out of the real estate agent’s line of sight at any time.

If your property has a “For Sale” sign in front and someone comes to the door, that person should be instructed to phone your agent for an appointment.

And by the way, for their own safety, many agents now have a second person on hand so

DEAR ABBY they’re not alone in a house with strangers.

Dear Abby: My grandson, “Tom,” who is in his mid-20s, has become caught up in a “love affair” with an unknown person on the Internet. He never dated during his teens, although his mother told me he once developed a crush on a girl who broke his heart when she rebuffed him.

Now Tom tells me he has found his “true love” online. He says she has told him she’s unhappy in her marriage and would divorce her husband if she could afford to do so. I asked him how he could know it was really a woman and not some guy playing a joke on him. He answered, “Grandma, no one could say the things she says to me if she didn’t really feel them in her heart.”

How can I convince him that this may be nothing more than a cruel scam?

— Worried Grandma In Illinois Dear Worried: Your grandson appears to be naive, inexperienced, and unaware of how many people don’t tell the whole truth about themselves online. Warn him that if “she” asks him for money to pay for her divorce that it could indeed be a scam. Remind him that even if it’s not one, she is cheating on her husband by carrying on an emotional affair with him. And he shouldn’t jump in with his whole heart until he knows with whom he’s having the pleasure. But you can’t safeguard him from being hurt regardless of how much you might wish to do so.

It is two hours before game time on a rainy May afternoon in New York, and things are peaceful in the visitors’ clubhouse at Citi Field. Pat Burrell, the San Francisco Giants’ left fielder, and Javier Lopez, a relief pitcher, play cards at a prime spot in the center of the room, exercising their veterans’ prerogative. A few younger teammates idly watch the television on the wall.

If you’re looking for creeping pregame tension, though, you don’t have to look any farther than the hallway outside. That’s where the producers and cameramen of the new Showtime series “The Franchise: A Season With the San Francisco Giants” are following their own game-day ritual: standing around and waiting, trying to stay out of the way and being ready for something — anything — to happen.

The lulling pace of a baseball game can be an all-day proposition for the baseball documentarian, who exists in a kind of perpetual seventhinning stretch.

“Eighty percent of our time is waiting to get access,” said Gary Waksman, the supervising producer, as he kept an eye on the comings and goings of players, coaches and team executives. “I get nervous when a cameraman has to go to the bathroom.”

Waksman and his crews from Major League Baseball Productions are in the middle of an eight-month stint filming and editing the on- and off-field lives of the Giants, the defending World Series champions. There have been other documentary TV series about professional team sports, including the football training-camp show “Hard Knocks” on HBO and the baseball shows “The Pen”

When: 10 p.m. Wednesday Where: Showtime

Richard Perry / New York Times News Service

Cinematographer Brian Shulz films the San Francisco Giants before their game against the New York Mets at Citi Field in New York on May 4. The Giants are the subject of a new documentary series on Showtime called “The Franchise,” which is set to debut Wednesday. (about the Philadelphia Phillies bullpen) and “The Club” (about the Chicago White Sox front office) on the MLB Network.

But “The Franchise,” which makes its debut Wednesday night, is on a different scale, following an entire team for nearly an entire season. (The last episode is scheduled for Aug. 31.) As they search for characters, story lines and serendipitous TV moments, the producers are keeping track of 25 active baseball players; other players on the disabled list and in the minor leagues; the manager, Bruce Bochy; and the general manager, Brian Sabean.

It’s an even bigger job than “19 Kids and Counting.”

And they’re doing it in an environment that, while not hostile, is not entirely friendly either.

Baseball players guard their privacy as jealously as any professional athletes and value their routines and refuges more than most. The makers of “The Franchise” may be part of the Major League Baseball family, but that doesn’t mean that the players are

much more than polite to them while striding by on their way to the trainer’s room or the batting cage.

As the evening’s game against the New York Mets approaches, the crew’s efforts to drum up some good television are meeting with mixed results. A plan to put a microphone on the pitcher Sergio Romo during a game, to eavesdrop on the Giants’ colorful relief corps, has been on “our wish list of what we call tasty sides,” said Michael Sullivan, a coordinating producer. Romo eventually said no. The producers’ disappointment is alleviated by news that they will be allowed to shoot B-roll footage during the game inside the bullpen, an area where cameras are usually not allowed.

The tensions between privacy and accommodation, and between baseball and celebrity entertainment, are embodied in the night’s biggest “get”: footage of Aubrey Huff, the Giants’ first baseman and leading hitter, as he sits in the clubhouse and watches Interior Design & Finishes by

himself on television. Huff and several of his teammates are analyzing his performance on an MLB Network talk show earlier in the day.

Huff endures the hall-of-mirrors spectacle for a while, as the boom mike hovers and the camera pans between his face and the television screen. But before his segment comes on, he retreats to the private sanctuary of the trainer’s room. A hasty negotiation results in a single crew member with a smaller camera being allowed in, a first-time concession that the producers will speak of in hushed tones.

A second visit with Waksman and Sullivan, this time at Major League Baseball’s labyrinthine production facility in Secaucus, N.J., on the last day of June, finds them huddled in an editing room with Josh Oshinsky, a producer-editor. The premiere is two weeks away, and their job is to pore through video from the first three months of the season and cut together the episodes, while managing the camera crews that will keep following the team.

The season has progressed well both for the Giants and for “The Franchise.” The team is in first place, which puts the players in a good mood, which in turn makes daily life much easier for the camera crews. And the success has come despite a remarkable series of injuries that has felled most of the team’s top hitters, a wave of adversity that provides honest drama for the show.

Roseanne proves she’s still ‘nuts’ on new reality show

By David Wiegand San Francisco Chronicle

SAN FRANCISCO — Only Roseanne Barr could come up with a title for her new reality show on Lifetime with double puns — plural — defiantly intended.

“Roseanne’s Nuts,” which premieres Wednesday night on Lifetime, finds the brash comedian running a 40-acre macadamia nut farm in Hawaii with her seemingly unflappable boyfriend of eight years, musician Johnny Argent. Tired of life in Los Angeles, she’s fled from the mainland to spend her days trying to protect 2,000 nut trees from voracious, snorting wild pigs and demonstrating unequivocally that there may be a streak or two of snow on the roof, but she’s as fiery and feisty as ever.

Because Lifetime only sent a single episode out to critics, it’s hard to judge whether you’ll want to stick with the show over the long run. Like every other reality show star, Roseanne plays to the camera, but without even pretending to be unaware of the phony fourth wall. In fact, at one point, after a Roseanne rant about how blissful it is to be thousands of miles away from everybody, Argent not only points out that she’s surrounded by a camera crew, but one of the cinematographers actually pulls back to prove the point.

The reality show format probably fits Barr better than, say, another sitcom, notwithstanding the quality of the Emmy-winning “Roseanne,” which aired from 1988-97, won a slew of awards and showed an average, blue-collar family tackling contemporary

life and issues. Barr was never much of an actress in the show, but we didn’t care. Where some stand-up comics — notably Ray Romano — proved themselves able actors, others, like Barr and Jerry Seinfeld, succeeded by transferring their stand-up techniques to the contrived situations of their respective TV shows.

That worked brilliantly for both comics.

In the years since “Roseanne” went off the air, TV in general has become increasingly shallow and nasty, and sitcoms seem to be populated with interchangeable 26-year-old pretty airheads of both genders who couldn’t deliver pizzas, much less actually funny lines. With notable exceptions (“Curb Your Enthusiasm,” “Big Bang Theory,” “Raising Hope,” among them), many sitcoms are larded with obvious and often sex-related one-liners.

All of this makes us tentatively welcome Roseanne’s return.

She’s foul-mouthed, abrasive and suffers absolutely nothing gladly. Yet, as always, her own foibles crack her up as much as they do her boyfriend or visiting eldest son. The fact that she’s completely unafraid to hold herself up to ridicule endears her to her audience.

The wild pigs might not want to stick around, but the rest of us should be willing to give “Roseanne’s Nuts” a shot for a few episodes, at least.

Animal right’s group calls Crow hypocrite

By Martin Griffith The Associated Press

RENO, Nev. — Sheryl Crow, hailed as a champion of wild horses that roam the range in the West, has been criticized by a national animal rights group that is calling her a hypocrite for performing at a Wyoming rodeo.

The “All I Wanna Do” singer planned Sheryl Crow to donate a portion of the proceeds from her July 22 concert at the Cheyenne Frontier Days to a wild-horse protection group that’s suing the government to try to halt a big mustang roundup in Nevada. Crow is the opening act for Kid Rock on a summer tour that includes the Wyoming gig.

But Showing Animals Respect and Kindness claimed that wild

horses are abused at that event in a special race just for them.

“How can an organization dedicated to helping wild horses take blood money that was based, in part, on abusing wild horses? We believe what Ms. Crow is doing is nothing but PR spin,” said Stuart Chaifetz, a spokesman for the Illinois-based group.

The group, also known as SHARK, called on the Cloud Foundation to reject the donation.

Ginger Kathrens, executive director of the Colorado-based group, said she and other activists consider Crow a true champion of wild horses. Crow has adopted a wild horse and contributed time and money to the cause of keeping them on public lands, she said.

SHARK’s criticism is unjustified because rodeos are prohibited under the 1971 federal Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act from using mustangs removed from the range by the government, Kathrens added.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Tuesday, July 12, 2011: This year you will work to get past an innate shyness or awkwardness. Sometimes you will experience anger rather than feel your vulnerability. Get past that uneasiness and learn to deal with your emotions. Once you do, you will feel empowered and much more capable. If you are single, you might want to establish a relationship. Yet what works today might not work later. Please keep that in mind. If you are attached, the two of you will transform many of your interactions for the better.

Be open to the process. You can count on SAGITTARIUS. The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH Keep reaching out for someone at a distance. You could be taken aback by a situation that, at best, feels awkward. Avoid a difficult conversation that you are nearly sure would cause an argument or problem. Make an adjustment that is long overdue.

Tonight: Break past the obvious.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH Build a better relationship between you and an important person in your life. Your first few gestures could feel awkward or strange. This will pass. Ask yourself what you do when you suppress your anger. Tonight: Clear out some errands.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH How you want to handle

a personal matter could change because of clearing out some very strong and possibly hurtful feelings. Push comes to shove over a money matter. You might have stronger opinions than you realize. Tonight: Say “yes” to living.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Your easy pace makes a distinct difference. Someone at work could demand more than you can give. Is this a boundary issue, or something else? Get feedback from someone in the know. Understand your limits.

Tonight: Just don’t make anything more difficult than need be.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Your creativity cannot be denied. Wherever you direct your attention, it streams out. A feeling of being a little out of kilter could affect you. Stay secure, knowing this is but a phase. Listen to a suggestion.

Tonight: Let your hair down.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Anchor in, knowing what you need to do. A domestic or personal matter keeps floating through. Know what works for you, but also try to understand where another person is coming from. A friend could be filtering information and distorting it. Tonight: Head home.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Don’t let someone color your impressions. You respect this person, but it doesn’t make him or her right. News from a distance could be irritating or force quick action. Keep communication open if you want a happy end result.

Tonight: Hang out with a friend.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHH Listen to forthcoming news from an associate or partner. Your ability to identify with others and sort through confusion emerges.

Others’ interpretations could be quite different from your own.

Reflect on other possibilities.

Tonight: Buy a friend a treat.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHHH You are energized and full of ideas. If someone is reactive, don’t be surprised. You have a lot to add to nearly any situation. This person could feel a little intimidated or insecure, but that isn’t your issue.

Tonight: Do only what you want.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH Step back and try not to get involved in the inevitable. Listen to feedback with care. You could be taken aback by others and their reactions. Try to move swiftly through work and/or your to-dos.

Tonight: Get some extra R and R. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH You could find yourself between a rock and a hard place. There could be a problem concerning a friendship and a loved one. You would like to avoid the confrontation, but you might not succeed. Remain positive.

Tonight: Fun and games.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Take charge and follow through. Others will follow your lead because they trust your judgment. Let your creativity open up. Allow more give-and-take between you and others. You don’t need to judge; just listen, for now.

Tonight: A force to be dealt with. © 2010 by King Features Syndicate

C OV ER S T OR I ES

Corvette Continued from E1 Today, the club is still going strong, much like the car that inspired it. Membership swelled to 90 members, with about 60 cars among them. Club members range in age from their mid 40s to late 70s. Some drive their cars year-round, others squirrel them away for the warm months.

The one common denominator: All own at least one Corvette, which Chevrolet began producing in 1953. According to the National Corvette Restorers Society, which has been around since 1974, clubs such as High Desert Corvette Club began popping up around the country in the ’50s. Today there’s a National Corvette Museum in Bowling Green, Ky. Warehousing some 70 models, the museum sports a Corvette Cafe and serves as home of the Corvette Hall of Fame, “to confer the highest honor and recognition upon the most influential individuals in the history of the Corvette.”

That the zippy car inspires such devotion doesn’t surprise members of the High Desert Corvette Club, which also goes by the shorter name High Desert Corvettes. Many of its members, the majority of whom are in their 60s, fell in love with the cars during their youth.

“Most of us are older and retired, and so sometimes it looks a little out of character to see these sports cars with these old guys running around them,” say John Burgess. His wife, Sande, is the club’s president.

Today, they have two Corvettes, a 1973 and a 2005. The 1973 “is very similar to the one we had when we got married in 1969,” says John Burgess. The 69-year-old says that for some car enthusiasts, “sometimes it’s a dream fulfilled” when they get their first Corvette.

Members pay annual dues of $30 for individuals or $40 per couple to be in the club, which has several single women and single men among its ranks.

Participating in the annual Sisters Rodeo Parade and touring in caravans to other towns and states remains a part of club life.

“We may have as many as 20 cars going in a string, and so we do get a lot of eyeballs. Even four or five of them; they’re kind of head-turners,” Burgess says.

There have been six generations of the car, according to the website www.corvettehistory. com. The C1, made from 195362; the C2 Sting Ray, 1963-67; the C3, 1968-82; the C4, 1984-96; the C5, 1997-2004; and the C6, 2005-present.

Kemi Broadley believe that people tend to fall in love with whatever generation of the car was being produced when they were in high school.

Redmond couple Ralph and Elaine Hakkila have been in the club for 18 years. Elaine believes the appeal of the Corvette is its sleek look.

“It’s kind of different than most cars,” she says. “They all have their own, unique style.”

Ralph adds that the appeal of Corvettes lies in the “beauty of ’em,” he says. “And it’s a true American muscle car.”

The 65-year-old adds that as a

Airstream Continued from E1 For the July Fourth weekend, the caravan visited Baker City, a special stop for the caravan given Baker City is the birthplace of Wally Byam, who was born in 1896 and went on to create the Airstream travel trailer. The Baker Heritage Museum is holding the exhibit “Caravanning and Collecting,” which tells the story of Byam, part of a summer filled with activities celebrating Airstreams.

According to the museum, Byam urged people to “stir the venturesome spirit that moves you to follow a rainbow to its end,” which seems to be the philosophy of the caravan as well. The group went on to visit Wallowa Lake and then Divide Wells, near Ukiah; Clyde Holliday State Recreation Site in Mt. Vernon, then on to Lava Lake and, finally, Paulina Lake for this concluding rally.

Heath, who lives in Hillsboro, says most of those driving along

Club members’ cars are on display in the 2010 Corvettes on the High Desert, a fundraiser for Crystal Peaks Youth Ranch. The club holds charitable events every other year, drawing in visitors from other parts of the Northwest. The next is scheduled for July 2012.

“In a lot of ways it’s like big-boy toys.

It’s a bunch of people acting like we’re still in high school, but having a lot of fun doing it.”

— Donna Johnson, High Desert Corvette Club member with her husband, Phil Johnson

young man growing up in Southern California, he’d always wanted a Corvette, “But I couldn’t afford them back then.”

The couple’s first Corvette purchase was a 1971 C3, which they bought used in 1993.

“We bought if from Mike Alvarez, and he belonged to the Corvette club,” explains Elaine, 57. “So he said, ‘Now that you bought my car, you gotta join the club. So that’s basically how we did it.”

She found the club more comfortable than the low-slung car, however.

“Then we went to an ’88 Roadster, and then my lovely wife let me buy this new C5 in 2000.

But it’ll probably be the last one.

We’ll see,” Ralph says with a chuckle.

He adds that among the misconceptions about Corvettes is their gas mileage. He’s gotten as much as 28 miles per gallon.

Says John Burgess, “They’re fun to drive. They’re quick-response kind of cars. It can go fast, but most of us aren’t interested in going fast anymore.”

With better gas mileage than the old cars, which might get 15 to 16 miles per gallon, the newer Corvettes can go farther, too.

Like other folks tied down by other responsibilities, Heath could not do the entire caravan, opting instead to do select stops a la carte.

“We met up with the caravan along with a total of 70 Airstreams in Baker City,” she said.

“And it was so much fun.”

Heath says husband Doug used to live in Bend, and the two decided to host the Paulina Lake Rally based on his recommendation. “He says it’s one of the most beautiful lakes anywhere,” she says.

That’s true. And maybe, in between fishing on the beautiful lake and socializing with their Airstream brethren, rally attendees will catch a glimpse of that rainbow Byam mentioned.

“To do that length of a trip in an older car, even a 1973, would have been intolerable,” he says.

Newer models “are very comfortable, good riding and quiet.

They’re not nearly as nice handling on the road, but they have the classic look of what people refer back to when they think of the old Corvettes.”

The club has been hosting regional Corvette events every other year since 1996 to raise money for charities such as Boys and Girls Clubs, Healing Reins, Kiwanis Food Bank and Crystal Peaks Youth Ranch. Last year, that figure was around $5,000.

Virtually all the members The Bulletin spoke to for this article

emphasized the club’s fun, social aspects much more so than wrenches and horsepower.

In fact, one couple that participates in the club hails from Spanaway, Wash. “They met us over on the coast one year and they just liked our club,” says Ralph Hakkila.

Member Phil Johnson has owned and restored some nine Corvettes over the years, although he and wife, Donna, now have just one, a red 2003 C5 Corvette. “And in the winter, says Donna, “our baby stays in.”

There may be one more common denominator besides owning a Corvette, says Elaine Hakkila. “Probably age is the most common one: We’re all gettin’ old.”

Adds Donna Johnson, “In a lot of ways it’s like big-boy toys. It’s a bunch of people acting like we’re still in high school, but having a lot of fun doing it.”

Kohlrabi ...?

Not a root, but still a hoot

Doing the work for you Painting the interior of your home? It used to be that you’d pick a room, choose a color — say, green — then browse a slew of shades, from dark and light to “olive” and “avocado.” Sound daunting? Today, paint stores often do most of the work for you, using fan decks and color brochures as your guides. Shown below are three cards from “Desert Spice” and “Pop Art,” two swatch collections from Bend’s Denfeld Paints. The idea is that you can pick a card with the color combo you like — and then paint your rooms as you please, using those complementary colors.

At the Market is a weekly look at produce available at local farmers markets.

By Heidi Hagemeier The Bulletin

It looks like a root and is sometimes even called a cabbage turnip. But kohlrabi is actually a stem — and a very edible one at that.

Both pale green and purple kohlrabi varieties are now available at area farmers markets. And they are quite versatile — the leaves can be steamed like other greens, and the baseball-size stems, once peeled, can be diced for salads or stirfried in a bit of butter.

Kohlrabi (pronounced kohl-RAHHeidi Hagemeier bee) is related to cabbage and brocThe Bulletin coli, according to the University of Illinois Extension. It is believed to have first been cultivated in Europe around 1500 and then imported to North America 300 years later.

The relatively thick outer layer of the vegetable’s ball-like stem must be peeled to eat the creamy bulb inside. There is little discernible difference between the green and purple versions, according to “The Science of Good Food,” by David Joachim and Andrew Schloss. Both have a whitish core.

Kohlrabi is best consumed when smaller and younger, in part because of the woody fibers that toughen in the outer stem as it grows larger. The flavor of kohlrabi is at its best like the sweetness of broccoli, according to the “Food Lover’s Companion,” an encyclopedia of cooking and food. The vegetable is also rich in potassium and vitamin C. To handle kohlrabi, separate the leaves and stem.

Store the leaves in plastic in the refrigerator for up to four days. The stem should last in the refrigerator for about 10 days.

P

aint is often touted as an easy and inexpensive way to freshen up the interior of a home. In reality, painting is a big, messy project.

It’s not necessarily a cheap fix when paint costs anywhere from $20 to $40 per gallon. Plus, picking colors that go well together may be the hardest part of all. If most of the walls in your home are white or beige, you probably have a touch of chromophobia or “fear of colors.” Paint store employees see this phobia every day and know how to help customers confidently pick colors that will give their homes attractive and cohesive looks.

“People don’t even know where to start sometimes when they try to choose colors,” said Norma Tucker, office manager at Bend’s Denfeld Paints, which has been in business since 1975.

Tucker said the big paint companies are all showing bolder color palettes this year, and Denfeld customers are going for it.

“People are definitely using more color. They generally don’t paint the whole inside a bright color, but they’ll do bright colors as accents, or accent walls,” Tucker said.

Taste Oregon’s culinary bounty

By Alison Highberger For The Bulletin

Oregon cooks up a lot of good stuff to eat and drink.

State residents often take pride in buying Oregonmade consumables in our grocery stores and farmers markets. Agriculture is a leading industry in the Beaver State, so it’s no wonder we’re famous for fruits and nuts, mushrooms and a bounty of berries.

We’re also big producers of grain.

We have thriving wine, beer and liquor producers, so there’s no need to ever step beyond the state line to have an adult beverage.

Salmon is our symbol, and our oysters are ambrosial (if you like that sort of thing). Oregon’s dairy industry is first-rate, with milk, cheese, yogurt, sour cream and ice cream. Whose day doesn’t improve when the grocery freezer case has Tillamook ice cream on sale?

Read on for four Oregon food and drink makers that shared information about their best-selling products. If it’s made in Oregon, chances are it’s delicious and worth bragging about.

Help choosing a scheme To help you decide on colors, paint stores have fan decks with color combinations that go together.

Denfeld Paints loans out its decks.

In addition, paint manufacturers have moved beyond single paint chips and now offer free cards and brochures with suggested color palettes that you’ll find in stores that sell paint.

I have an obtrusive object in my front yard that bothers me every time I pull into the driveway.

I am talking about the natural gas above-ground piping and the meter. We tried cam-

Oregon Growers & Shippers Hood River • www.oregongrowers.com

Continued from F1

David Gee, co-founder of Oregon Growers and Shippers, says the company is first and foremost a jam company right now, with marionberry as the top seller. His five-year-old Hood River company specializes in taking the best Oregon ingredients and making them into the highest quality fruit spreads, pâtés, butters and chutneys. He also has a line of hazelnuts, honeys and barbecue sauces.

Gee’s jam flavors include Oregon strawberry, raspberry, blueberry and peach, plus more exotic flavors like cherry zinfandel and strawberry pinot noir that can be using in cooking.

The labels say “fruit spreads” because, according to law, they can’t be called jam. They have less sugar than the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s definition of jam, according to Gee. “We don’t use that much sugar — it’d be too sweet.

Our jams are about a third less sugar, so that means we have one-third more fruit,” Gee said. “Just find the best fruit you can, and don’t mess it up. That’s my philosophy,” he said.

The jars of fruit pâtés from Oregon Growers & Shippers are extra thick, sliceable jams, designed to be served with artisan cheese.

“The only two things I have to buy from elsewhere are figs and quince. The whole idea for this company is see what we can make from products in our own backyard, and Hood River has a pretty abundant backyard,” Gee said.

Clear Creek Distillery Portland • www.clearcreekdistillery.com The signature product of Clear Creek Distillery is pear brandy with a whole pear that’s been grown inside the bottle. It takes 30 pounds of Bartlett pears from their orchards in Parkdale to make one 750-milliliter bottle.

“The pear brandy was the first product we put on the market 26 years ago. It’s still my personal favorite and still the bestseller,” said owner Steve McCarthy.

Cranberry liqueur made with whole, fresh, ripe cranberries from Port Orford is also popular, along with Clear Creek’s other clear fruit brandies: Apple, kirschwasser (cherry), blue plum, mirabelle plum, framboise (raspberry) and even one made from Douglas fir. The company makes grappa too, plus McCarthy’s Oregon Single Malt Scotch Whiskey.

“We’re really quite committed to the idea of taking Oregon stuff — berries, cherries, plums, apples, pears — and making it into products that can be sold worldwide. We’ve always been obsessed with everything being local,” McCarthy said.

Clear Creek’s website has a link to the Oregon Liquor Stores’ Product Search, so consumers can find out where to buy Clear Creek products.

Brigittine Monks’ Gourmet Confections Amity • www.brigittine.org Since 1983, a Roman Catholic community of nine contemplative monks in Amity has been making fudge and truffles to help support the community, and make the rest of us happy.

In 2010, the monks sold more than 40,000 1pound boxes of fudge and more than 10,000 boxes of truffles.

Their best-selling items are Chocolate Fudge Royale with Nuts (walnuts) and Chocolate Fudge Royale (without nuts). Their best-selling truffles are Assorted Chocolate Truffles Royale and Chocolate Truffles Royale. The monks, dedicated to a life of prayer and contemplation, make all of their confections at the monastery, but rarely eat them.

“Our confections are rarely on the menu, although the brothers may eat them once in a while.

Homemade ice cream is a more regular dessert item, and sometimes it is topped with a chocolate sauce made with the fudge,” said Luis Figueroa, who works at the monastery.

Turkey burgers, Texas-style

By Linda Gassenheimer McClatchy-Tribune News Service

So the big-meat weekend of the July Fourth holiday is gone.

But you can try something lighter while still getting your protein with these burgers. They get their bang from jalapeño peppers mixed with mayonnaise.

Barbecue sauce mixed in with the turkey gives a barbecue flavor to the burgers without having to heat up the grill. Mix corn kernels and black beans together for a colorful, tasty side dish.

Helpful hints: • Any type of barbecue sauce can be used.

• Place corn in a sieve and run hot water through to quick defrost the corn or place in a microwave oven for 2 minutes.

• Wine suggestion: Be adventurous and try a dry rose wine.

Chardonnay: If you can’t beat it, enjoy it

By Fred Tasker McClatchy-Tribune News Service

It’s California’s most popular wine by far, selling 53 million cases in 2010, nearly one-third that state’s total wine shipments to America. It grows on 95,000 acres, more than three times that of its closest white competitors,

sauvignon blanc and pinot grigio, combined, according to wine industry consultants. And for a decade now, it has withstood the aficionados who seek to combat its ubiquity by drinking “anything but chardonnay.”

The reason is chardonnay’s chameleon-like flexibility. Grow it in a

cool climate and it comes out crisp and lean, ready for raw seafood and simple chicken dishes. Grow it warm and it tastes like breakfast — both butter and toast.

So drink up — and for kicks, check out chardonnay’s food pairing ideas at the blog www.food andwinepairing.org.

In Taiwanese potato salad, the taters, ham, veggies — everything — is diced to be the same size, and apples add a bit of sweetness.

Potatoes are native to the Andes, and there are dozens of kinds in Peru. This salad is based on a layered Peruvian version called a causa.

Indian cooking has been adopted, and adapted, in America; this potato salad is in turn a twist on a traditional curry dish.

A world tour of potato salad From Taiwan to India to France, America’s traditional picnic dish knows no bounds

By Kathleen Purvis McClatchy-Tribune News Service

P

otato salad might be an American picnic tradition this time of year, but it traveled the world to get here.

There are German potato salads and French potato salads. And when we talked to four women who came to this country (all live in North Carolina) from all over the globe, we found even more. Taiwanese-style, with apple and ham. Peruvian, with layers of egg salad. Indian, with a punch of spices and yogurt.

We asked each to talk about how her country’s food shows up in America and how to make a potato salad that reflects her heritage.

That’s the real American way: We’re not a melting pot. We’re a salad.

‘Always changing’ Alice Chang’s family is from China, but her parents grew up in Taiwan. She was born in Little Rock, Ark., and raised in Raleigh, N.C., where her mother owns the store Grand Asia. Chang moved to Charlotte last year to open a Grand Asia Market.

In Taiwan, people love trends.

“They’re always coming up with new desserts, new snacks.

They’re always changing things.”

Chang loves America’s willingness to try things and make them our own. She thinks it’s great when customers use products in ways they wouldn’t be used in Asia. “There’s really no right or wrong in eating food.

As long as people like it, you’re getting it right.”

As for potato salad? “Who doesn’t love potatoes?” she says.

“We put potatoes in stews and in stir-fries.” In Taiwanese potato salad, everything is diced to be the same size, with a lot of colors, including apple. “It adds a crunchiness and a sweetness.”

‘Eclectic cuisine’ Though Sandra Gutierrez was born in Philadelphia, her family returned to Guatemala when she was a child, and she lived there until she was 18. The

“Who doesn’t love potatoes?”

— Alice Chang, of Chinese and Taiwanese ancestry Cary, N.C., culinary instructor has written her first book, “The New Southern-Latino Table,” which is being published in September. “I traveled a lot through Latin America. So I have a good perspective.”

Guatemalan food combines Mayan and continental influences from Spain, France and Germany. “It’s a very eclectic cuisine,” she says. “Everyone is familiar with Mexican, but the other 22 cuisines (of Latin America) have a lot to offer. Everyone thinks we eat the same things, but we don’t.”

Potatoes are native to the Andes, and there are dozens of kinds in Peru. Her potato salad is based on a layered Peruvian version called a causa. “It’s a beautiful salad. They press (the layers) together and serve it either individually, or they make huge salads in a dome shape they uncover, so you can see the layers.”

‘Like it, and crave it’ Jyotsna Jaigai, of Chapel Hill, N.C., was born in Colorado to parents from India. She’s a public health researcher for the Environmental Protection Agency, specializing in water issues. She also writes a blog, masalawala.wordpress.com, about her dining experiences.

“At home, we were Indian through and through,” she says.

In areas with a large Indian population, her family would have sought out friends from their own region. But in Colorado, they socialized with people from all over India, so she was exposed to a variety of customs.

America has adopted a lot of Indian food recently, including lentil soups and curries.

She sees tikka masalas and Indian breads like naan in delis.

“Those flavor combinations are more complex, and we’re growing to like it, and crave it. We’re just getting more diverse and knowledgeable.”

Her generation is adapting

CURRY POTATO SALAD Makes 6 to 8 servings.

2 lbs Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and cut in ½-inch dice Salt and pepper, to taste 2 C frozen peas, rinsed to thaw 3 TBS canola oil 1 TBS ground cumin 1 TBS ground coriander

1 tsp turmeric 1 tsp red chili powder 1 sm or ½ med red onion, minced (about 1 C) 2 C Greek-style plain yogurt 6 TBS lemon juice, or more for a thinner, tangier dressing 2 TBS cilantro (optional)

Place potatoes in a pot, cover with water and bring to boil.

Cook 10 to 15 minutes, until fork tender. Remove from heat and drain, leaving potatoes in the pot. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and leave in the pot until slightly cooled.

Place canola oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Add cumin, coriander, turmeric and chili powder and cook about 5 minutes. Add onion and continue cooking until onion is soft, about 10 minutes.

Stir together yogurt, lemon juice and onion mixture in a large serving bowl. Add potatoes, peas and cilantro and mix gently to combine. Refrigerate for 1 hour or up to 24 hours. Serve cold or at room temperature.

flavors, like her curried potato salad. “My Indian cooking is very different from my mother’s Indian cooking. When we go back to India now, it’s kind of confusing for my parents. India has changed so much.”

‘Very French’ A native of Paris, Virginie Stewart was living in Vietnam when she met her British husband. She’s now a real estate broker and French teacher in Charlotte.

“Things like quiche, like coq

au vin, those are things my American friends cook,” she says. They’ve become so familiar, she thinks Americans don’t always realize those started in France.

“What we really enjoy (in the U.S.) is actually meat,” she says.

“The beef is amazing. You eat a steak here, you eat it (in France), it’s two different things. People say it’s softer here, it’s like butter in your mouth.”

So what’s a French potato salad? “There’s something very simple we do, just with parsley, white wine and shallots.” Salade Nicoise is more elaborate, with potatoes, green beans, onions, tomatoes and black olives. Instead of tuna, it might have bacon, cold meat or no meat at all.

“It’s very French.”

VINAIGRETTE 2 TBS vinegar (such as red or white wine vinegar or sherry) 1 tsp Dijon mustard 4 TBS extra-virgin olive oil Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Prepare a bowl of ice water and set aside.

Place potatoes and eggs in the boiling water. Cook 12 minutes.

Remove eggs and rinse with cold water. Add the green beans to the boiling water and continue cooking about 8 minutes, until green beans are crisp-tender and potatoes can be pierced with a knife. Remove green beans with a slotted spoon and place in the ice water. Drain potatoes and let stand until cool enough to handle. Remove green beans from ice water and roll in paper towels to dry.

Make vinaigrette while potatoes are cooking: Whisk vinegar and mustard in a small bowl.

Slowly whisk in oil, starting with a few drops and working up to a small stream. Season with salt and pepper.

Slice potatoes while warm.

Toss potato slices and green beans with about half the vinaigrette. Arrange on a large platter.

Peel and slice the eggs. Arrange tomato wedges, egg slices and olives on the green beans and potato slices. Top with tuna. Drizzle with remaining vinaigrette.

Serve at room temperature.

H Paint Continued from F1 All of the paint websites offer tips for choosing color. Check out your favorite brand, or visit www.sherwin-williams.com, www.ppgpittsburghpaints.com and www.devinecolor.com for color inspiration.

Don’t go out empty-handed To find a color scheme you’ll love, Tucker suggests looking around your home to identify your favorite permanent decor items: Upholstery, carpeting, cabinets or artwork. Use those colors to pick a new color scheme for the walls. Take a carpet sample and sofa fabric swatch or pillow with you to the paint store.

After you choose a few paint chips that match well with whatever you brought, color expert and author Susan Sargent writes in her book “The Comfort of Color” that you should leave the store immediately. “It is perilous to linger long enough to let your eye wander, as paralysis might set in,” Sargent writes.

Making color choices Choose one base color to weave throughout your entire house and then pick two main accent colors, Tucker said.

“It’s the 60-30-10 rule in decorating — 60 percent is your dominant color, 30 percent another color, and 10 percent is a bolder color for accent. That 10 percent doesn’t have to be paint; it can be accessories like pillows, tablecloths, pictures or furniture,” Tucker said.

“Your dominant base color should be somewhat neutral but doesn’t have to be white. Consider tan, butter yellow, gray,” Tucker said.

Sample first Instead of taping paint chips to the wall and trying to make a

“Paint a large piece of poster board that you can pin on a wall and move around. Remember the color changes with the lighting. Look at it in the morning and different times of the day.

Corners that aren’t well-lit are going to look different, too,” Tucker said.

Room-to-room flow Sargent makes the point in “Susan Sargent’s The Comfort of Color” that every room in the house is a link in a chain. “As you walk from the living room to the kitchen to get a snack, the whole of your home can — and should — unfold before you: each space with its own personality, of course, yet splashed with integrated colors that are glimpsed through doorways and reach around corners in a sympathetic

Accent walls A different color accent wall adds interest to a room. The best way to pick an accent wall is to walk into a room and choose the wall that’s most dominant or that you want people to notice, Tucker said.

“If not, the room will feel off balance. The accent color will draw the eye to the wall, so it could be a wall that’s dominant or has a piece of art you want people to see,” she said.

Don’t fight the room The old adage is that small rooms should be painted light colors to make them feel bigger and vice versa.

Color can create illusions. For instance, painting a lighter color on a ceiling can make it appear higher. But Tucker said it’s all right to contract a small room with a dark color.

“A small room can feel cozy with a darker color. Keep a great room light-colored to feel big and great, and don’t fight the architecture of the room,” Tucker said.

The paint colors you choose make a huge difference in how your house looks and feels. Ask the experts at area paint stores all of your paint color questions and use online resources to explore color options.

Tucker said that the average homeowner paints the interior of his or her home only about every 10 years, so if you’re coming up on a decade of white or beige, take a deep breath, and embrace color for a change.

Book review: Green roofs, small scale “Small Green Roofs: Low-Tech Options for Greener Living”

by Nigel Dunnett, Dusty Gedge, John Little and Edmund C. Snodgrass (Timber Press, $24.95)

McClatchy-Tribune News Service The authors of “Small Green Roofs” argue that putting plants on a roof is as good for the occupants as it is for the environment.

A green roof, they say, connects us with nature while it

performs such beneficial functions as cooling buildings and slowing storm-water runoff.

That’s why the authors encourage readers to create green roofs on a small scale, on buildings such as houses, garages and sheds.

The book covers the process of creating a green roof and choosing plants. It also profiles a few dozen green roof projects, focusing on the design process, installation and success of each.

A safety stopper for the garbage disposal

By Mary Beth Breckenridge Akron (Ohio) Beacon Journal

A garbage disposal is for garbage. Not for fingers. And Dispose-it-Guard is designed to keep it that way.

The device is a sink stopper with a built-in tool for pushing food into the disposal. A twist of a handle opens holes to turn the stopper into a strainer, which

Vinegar + water = cleaner (for fruits as well)

By Kathleen Purvis McClatchy-Tribune News Service

With Europe’s recent outbreak of foodborne illness, many people are concerned with making sure fruits and vegetables are clean, especially those we consume without cooking.

The best advice used to be that simply washing fruits and vegetables was sufficient, with a scrub brush used on things with firm skins, such as cantaloupes and potatoes. However, there is some evidence that a combination of water and vinegar might be more effective.

Information from the University of Minnesota indicates that rinsing with water reduces the population of bacteria that might be present to 15 percent, while rinsing with some agitation or scrubbing motion can reduce it to 10 percent. But using a diluted vinegar solution can reduce bacteria to 1 to 2 percent.

Now, where to mix that vinegar solution?

Making it in the sink not only uses a lot of vinegar, it also could raise the problem of spreading contamination in the wash water if you don’t thoroughly clean the sink. The most practical idea is to make a solution of ½ cup vinegar to 1½ cups water in a spray bottle. Spray fruits and vegetables with it, let stand a minute or two and then rinse with running water.

However, Benjamin Chapman, the food safety specialist with North Carolina Cooperative Extension, points out that many pathogens associated with outbreaks, such as E. coli, salmonella and shigella, can attach tightly in crevices where wash solutions, including diluted vinegar, may not reach.

So while you can reduce risk, you can’t eliminate it. (Chapman and other food-safety experts emphasize that really reducing contamination has to happen at farm and in factory level.)

1,001 household uses for vinegar Six examples of cleaning tips from www.vinegartips.com, operated by the vinegar maker Mizkan Americas Inc.: • Shine chrome sink fixtures that have a lime buildup. Use a paste made of 2 tablespoons salt and 1 teaspoon white distilled vinegar.

• Make your own scouring cleanser by combining 1⁄4 cup baking soda with 1 tablespoon liquid detergent. Add just enough white distilled vinegar to give it a thick but creamy texture.

• Deodorize the garbage disposal by pouring in 1⁄2 cup baking soda and 1⁄2 cup hot white distilled vinegar. Let sit for 5 minutes then run hot water down the disposal.

• Prevent lint from clinging to clothes by adding 1⁄2 cup white distilled vinegar to the wash cycle.

• Stop ants from congregating by pouring white distilled vinegar on the area.

• Keep a dog from scratching its ears by wiping them out regularly with a soft cloth dipped in undiluted white distilled vinegar.

Dispose-it-Guard sink stopper

If in doubt ... don’t pour it out

By Al Heavens The Philadelphia Inquirer

Q:

I live in a 20-year-old townhouse and have municipal sewer and water, with PVC drain pipes.

Although the drain didn’t seem to be clogged, there was a sewer odor near the first-floor powder room, just off the kitchen, that began late in March.

The toilet is a 2-year-old lowflush Toto toilet with an unusual configuration in the bowl so a plunger will not work on it, so I used a drain cleaner containing sodium hypochlorite, sodium hydroxide, surfactant, and sodium silicate. The label stated that the product contained no phosphorus and was safe for PVC pipe.

I poured half the container into the toilet, let it sit 30 minutes, then flushed.

Later, I noticed an odor, burning in my eyes, nose, and throat, dizziness, and a feeling that I was losing consciousness. I have awakened at night with my eyes burning and my heart pounding.

I called the 800 number on the package and was told that their product did not cause this, and that I should use vinegar and baking soda in the drain, run a lot of water down the drain, which I did, and that the odor would eventually fade with time.

I still have this terrible odor and the health effects from it, which intensify when I use the water and drains in the powder room, the shower and bath on the second floor, the dishwasher on the first floor and the washing machine in the basement.

Sodium hypochlorite is bleach and sodium hydroxide is lye, and when you mix them, according to the New Jersey Department of Health, it can produce “deadly gases and cause burns, watery eyes, cough and other symptoms.”

Something is preventing that mess from proceeding through the plumbing system and into the sewer, so that’s why the effects linger.

Call Toto USA at 888-2958134 for advice about solving the problem. And never, never, never pour anything you aren’t sure of down a drain. Plumbers cost a lot less than funerals.

Q:

We’ve bought a 5-year-old house in Winter Haven, Fla. The driveway is all brick, but the brick is half an inch higher than the start of the garage-door floor. This works OK, except at the left corner of the garage door, where water pools and then flows into the garage, forming a large puddle.

Do you have any solutions for this? The seal seems OK on the rest of the double-car garage.

You have a problem that needs to be addressed, and that might involve lowering the bricks so that water will flow away from the garage and not into it. A Florida hurricane could turn a little water ponding in a corner into a much bigger issue.

Maybe the brick can be cut down a half-inch at the left corner so that water will drain away from the garage at that point — if it has a place in which to drain. That may be another issue you need to have addressed. Check with a driveway contractor to see if this can be done.

Q:

I have five glass block windows in my house, which was built in the late 1940s

or early ’50s. They are the source of very cold air that penetrates all through our main floor. I don’t want to replace the glass blocks, but aside from raising the thermostat — which would dry out the house and increase our energy bills — is there a way to stop the drafts?

What’s the mortar between the blocks look like? Most sources I’ve checked say the mortar tends to dry out or crack, allowing cold air to flow in and warm, out.

A white or clear silicone sealant is suggested. Wipe the excess away quickly.

One final tip: Washing out summer stains

Kimberly Nies, home economist for LG Electronics, offers these tips on how to treat all types of summer stains.

Quick stain removal: Pretreat the stain, then use a steam washer or dryer to finish the job. Steam particles are smaller, hotter, and provide a more intense cleaning than water particles. Plus, they are gentler on clothing.

Grease and oil: Soak in cold water and rub fabric against itself to dislodge the stain.

If stains are old, scrape off crusted material and add detergent to the cold-water soak. Launder in warm water with detergent.

Colorful liquids and sauces: For fresh stains, wash in the hottest water safe for the fabric with your favorite detergent. For older stains, use detergent with bleach or bleach alternative.

Waxy substances: Stains from candle wax, chewing gum, crayon and lipstick have two components: oil/wax and dye/pigment. Tackle these types of stains by removing the oily portion first and then the dye portion. Waxy stains should first be scraped and treated with a dry-cleaning solution, then rubbed with detergent and scrubbed under hot water. Other combo stains should first be rubbed with detergent, then washed in the hottest water possible with detergent with bleach or bleach alternative.

Dry clean only: Always check the care label first. If the item is dry clean only, blot the excess stain and take to the cleaners within 24 to 48 hours.

Next week How to turn that brown spot in the lawn back to green.

Hiding Continued from F1 The plan I should put in place is to remove the structure and plant a group of shrubs that are more pleasant to look at next to the pipes to nudge the view away from the pipes. The first thought would be to plant shrubs with seasonal interest; spring flowers, then greenery, ending with fall leaf color. Eventually we progress into winter with bare branches again making the standing pipes a visible eyesore.

The challenge now is to spend some time listing the pros and cons of all the possibilities and ending up with three plants that will grow well together and successfully accomplish the distraction that I want.

I won’t have any difficulty choosing a shrub. The puzzler will be a plant that will retain its leaves through the winter and then burst forth again in the spring. I immediately think of the Oregon grape or a variety of the ornamental grasses. I just need to do some sleuthing in our local nurseries and I am sure then the decision will be even harder to make.

According to Susan Morrison, author of “Garden Up! Smart Vertical Gardening for Small and Large Spaces,” “When trying to disguise something, it’s better to use a plant with fine textures.

From a distance, finely textured plants with small or narrow leaves appeal to the eye without demanding a lot of attention. When placed in front of or near an object, the plant’s delicate features help the object appear to gently recede into the background.”

I checked with Cascade Natural Gas on restrictions and I was told the most important thing to do is call 811, the Oregon Utility Notification Center. Individuals can find out where underground pipes are, so the planting or root growth won’t interfere with the piping system.

If you are trying to disguise a heat pump or an air-conditioning unit, a big consideration would be to make sure the plants weren’t placed directly in front of the unit. Select a variety that can withstand the hot air that will be blowing directly on them. Plants should be placed 2 to 3 feet away from the box, as good circulation is required for the unit to run efficiently. Avoid planting a single plant directly in front of the unit as that will draw the eye instead of distracting the eye.

Covering fences You’ll have to admit that although functional, most chainlink fences lack style and afford little privacy. With some thought and creativity you can soften the fence’s harsh line. If the fence is yours, the obvious choice would be a variety of flowering vines.

Vines that do well in our area include varieties of clematis ranging in color and size from the large purple jackmanii to the small yellow flowers of the lantern

Books that keep this country’s best gardeners growing

By Barbara Mahany Chicago Tribune

Every gardener has a tome to which he or she turns. It’s the most dog-eared, mudsmudged book on the shelf, the one that through the years has answered every garden puzzle, every curiosity, or perhaps provided the pick-me-up, the inspiration, that’s so essential on the days when the peonies go kerplop.

We asked some of the best horticultural minds at some of America’s finest botanic gardens to tell us which titles they pluck when the garden sends them scurrying to the bookshelf.

UTILITY BOX? WHAT UTILITY BOX?

According to Susan Morrison, author of “Garden Up!” — “When trying to disguise something, it’s better to use a plant with fine textures. From a distance, finely textured plants with small or narrow leaves appeal to the eye without demanding a lot of attention. When placed in front of or near an object, the plant’s delicate features help the object appear to gently recede into the background.” clematis which is more drought tolerant than the larger flowering clematis.

The silver lace vine produces large white flowers in late summer and has no known disease or insect problems. The vine is fast-growing, showing a growth between 8 to 12 inches per growing season.

Virginia creeper explodes with color in the fall rather than delight the eye with a showy flower in the summer. Birds can enjoy the purple berries in the fall.

Creativity will come into play if the fence is not yours. You will need some tall rebar posts available at building centers to act as the supports. You could also choose reed fencing that is avail-

able at garden centers or any other type of stake that would add stability to a trellis. If you like do-it-yourself projects, you could create a trellis from tree branches you have pruned or lathe strips you might have. An assembly of trellis panels would act as the distraction from the chain-link fencing. Paint the panels a neutral color if you want the fence to recede into the background or go bright to make the area a focal point.

Adding trees It is important to remember when planting new trees or shrubs to remove any burlap, rope or wire cages. Take time to loosen roots so they can easily adjust to

their new planting.

Make sure you consider the mature height and spread of your planting.

A common mistake is planting too deep and building a volcano after planting. Look for what is called the root flare on the trunk and plant so the flare is level with the grade. The volcano is when well meaning gardeners pile mulch high around a tree trunk or a shrub which can lead to rot.

With some thought and creativity we can minimize the eyesores in our landscape and perhaps give us something that will bring a smile and a feeling of satisfaction.

‘Rain, rain, go away ... wait, what?’ Assessing the help that H2O brings

By Nancy O’Donnell Albany (N.Y.) Times Union

Summer is pool season, boating season, baseball season and picnic season. Rain puts a damper on “our” seasons, but for a plant, it’s the ultimate growing season.

How much water does a plant need to thrive? Rainy days and sunny days, both in moderation, should get the balanced respect they deserve.

Once a plant is in “full foliage,” the leaf and stem surface area exposed to the environment is at its

greatest. The greater this surface area, the greater the amount of moisture lost through transpiration, a phenomenon where the leaf cools itself by releasing water vapor from its leaves, kind of like us sweating through our pores.

The amount of water lost by this process is tremendous; nearly 99 percent of all water absorbed by the plant is lost through transpiration. Although a plant is able to adjust transpiration during drought conditions, eventually that fine line is crossed; when the

plant has transpired more than it is able to absorb through its roots, wilt occurs. And continued wilt and repeat wilt will negatively affect flower and fruit production.

So how much water is enough?

The answer isn’t as straightforward as we’d like it to be. Variables such as plant type, plant requirements, soil conditions, environmental exposure, overall plant size and amount of competition with neighboring roots all must be taken into consideration when answering the “how much”

question.

Generally, the rule of thumb is an inch of rain per week. However, this is dependent on whether previous rainfalls have been weekly, heavy, light or completely absent.

What we truly want for our plants is a rain that will saturate the soil down to below the root zone so the roots in turn grow downward in search of refreshment, not upward toward the surface.

Roots that grow deep are more drought-tolerant, able to search out deeper pockets of moisture

“For the plant geek who really wants to know specifics on individual species and varieties. Great gardens start with putting the right plant in the right place.”

— From a review of “Manual of Woody Landscape Plants” not self-deprecating attitude regarding our sometimes feeble attempts to understand and manipulate the natural world for our own enjoyment, and his simple yet elegant writing style. … For the garden designer, one can’t overestimate the years of observation, trials, tribulations and triumphs expressed within.”

“Tropical Flowering Plants: A Guide to Identification and Cultivation”

by Kirsten Albrecht Llamas (Timber Press) Who: Mike McLaughlin, horticulturist, Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, Sarasota, Fla. Why: “One of our favorites as a reference for the species we deal with. The book is comprehensive, it’s packed with pertinent information and it’s accurate. Especially important, it has up-to-date nomenclature, and it is well illustrated. We use it mostly for identification purposes.”

by Paul Tukey (Storey Publishing) Who: Margie Radebaugh, director of horticulture and education, Phipps Conservatory and Botanical Gardens, Pittsburgh, Pa. Why: “This excellent book explains how to grow an organic, beautiful lawn. I referenced this book as Phipps transitioned its historic front green to organic practices, but it is also a practical guide for the homeowner.

(Tukey) provides a step-by-step guide for going organic, whether that means simply doing nothing but mowing, or aiming for the perfect lawn without the hazards. … (It) guides you systematically through the process of shifting to an organic lawn.”

10 feel-good things for July Watch your weight MARTHA STEWART 1. Grab the salad tongs People with diets rich in vegetable-oil-based salad dressing, tomatoes, leafy greens, fish, poultry and nuts — and low in red meat and dairy — may cut their risk of Alzheimer’s disease by almost 40 percent, a 2010 study at Columbia University shows.

2. Swap the gym for the garden Instead of weeding on your hands and knees only, shift now and then to a squat, says Bunny Guinness, co-author of “Garden Your Way to Health and Fitness.”

You’ll strengthen your legs.

3. Outwit sugar Here’s an easy guideline: Cut back on packaged foods and drinks that list sugar in the first four ingredients. Cereals, barbecue sauces and sports drinks are common culprits, says Tara Gidus, a registered dietitian who works with professional athletes. And be familiar with sugar’s aliases, including fructose, dextrose and corn syrup.

4. Fly the comfy skies Even if you’re stuck with the middle seat, a few in-flight stretches can stave off tightness, says Elisabeth Halfpapp, a yoga and fitness instructor and execu-

tive vice president of mind-body programming at Exhale spa in New York City.

• Press your right elbow on a fold-out tray for five seconds, with your elbow close to your chest and your right hand on your right shoulder. Repeat on left side.

• Interlace your fingers and reach overhead, palms up. Lean left and then right.

• Raise your right knee, flex and point foot, and then move it in a circle. Repeat with your left leg.

6. Fire up dessert Peaches, plums, mangoes and figs caramelize beautifully on the grill, says Jennifer Aaronson, food editor at Martha Stewart Living. They’re also naturally sweet, so you’ll be eating dessert while working more fruit into your diet.

7. Get on the beach Walking or running on the beach is more invigorating than a stint on the treadmill, and it

In addition to being rich in fiber, popcorn is a good source of antioxidants called polyphenols.

Keep the snack healthy by using an air popper and drizzling with olive oil instead of butter.

5. Cheer the blues Blueberries are at their peak (in fact, July is National Blueberry Month), so now is the perfect time to indulge in something good — for your taste buds and your brain.

In a recent study, participants who consumed 15 to 21 ounces of blueberry juice daily for 12 weeks showed significant improvement on learning and memory tests, says Robert Krikorian, associate professor of clinical psychiatry at the University of Cincinnati and the lead author of the study. He says eating a cup of berries three to five times a week would provide the same benefits.

The first step toward a great vacation is staying well. Michele Barry, a dean and the director of global health programs at Stanford University, suggests taking these items along with your sunscreen: • Insect repellent with 35 percent DEET. (The higher the percentage, the longer it stays on your skin.)

• 1 percent hydrocortisone cream to treat rashes, especially if you’ll be in contact with plants.

• Medicine for intestinal illness, such as over-the-counter loperamide. Many bacteria have become resistant to traditional drugs, Barry says. Azithromycin, a prescription antibiotic, might be in order if you’ll be far afield.

FLEMING’S MANGO SALSA Makes 10 (½-cup) servings.

McClatchy-Tribune News Service MIAMI — For mango lovers, this season is particularly sweet.

A cold December and record dry season were the perfect recipe for “one of the better years” for the golden beauties, said Louise King, president of the Tropical Fruit Growers of South Florida.

So if you can find mangoes from here (or not), grab them up.

Like other brightly colored tropical fruits, mangoes are a nutritional powerhouse, with 100 percent of the daily value of vitamin C, one-third of the vitamin A and 3 grams of fiber in a 100-calorie, 1 cup serving.

2 C diced mango 2 C diced fresh pineapple 1 C diced red bell pepper 4 TBS rice vinegar or white wine vinegar

2 TBS minced fresh cilantro 2 to 3 TBS sugar (to taste) ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes

Combine the ingredients in a glass bowl. Cover and set aside for 2 hours before using.

1 tsp grated lemon zest 1 19-oz can cannellini beans, rinsed and drained 1 red bell pepper, seeded and julienned 6 lg Kalamata olives, pitted and chopped

In a large saucepan, steam the green beans until crisp-tender, about 8 minutes. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the vinegars, oil, lemon zest and black pepper. Add both types of beans, the bell pepper and olives; toss to coat. Serve warm, or refrigerate, covered, until well chilled, at least 2 hours.

cookbook and thinks it may be the one.

The recipe originally is from Sheryl Knuth, of Omaha, Neb., who says in an accompanying note that it helps encourage good eating habits in her children.

“Its refreshing, light and lemony flavor is perfect for hot summer days,” she writes, “and in cooler weather, it’s perfect for rich pork dishes.”

Unless you’re a Fiber One fan, you might be aware only of the original product, a breakfast cereal of which a single ½ cup serving contains 57 percent of the daily value for fiber. Since then, more cereals and other items have been introduced, — and the Fiber One empire is now fairly vast.

Here’s a new one: Fiber One 90-calorie brownies, in two flavors, each providing 20 percent of the daily value for fiber.

Along with that are five flavors of Fiber One chewy bars (containing 140 calories each), five kinds of yogurt, three muffin mixes, 10 bread products and one lonely kind of Fiber One cottage cheese.

So check them out. (There is slight reassurance for those who fear that Fiber One will swallow the Earth: Fiber One Toaster Pastries have vanished, and Fiber One milkshakes have disappeared from the main Fiber One website.)

Appa Appa is a super sweet 2-month-old Shiba Inu that was brought to the shelter because sadly the owners family discovered they were allergic to the dog. He is very much a puppy and is looking for a forever home that can spend the time with training and socialization. If you have the time for this handsome boy then come to the shelter today and adopt him!

To adopt a pet, call 541-382-3537 • www.hsco.org 61170 SE 27th, Bend, OR 97702

Sox

Mango

Sox is a very sweet 1-year-old cat that is ready to find his forever home and leave the shelter behind. He was surrendered for adoption because the previous owners were moving and could not take him along. He has lived with cats, dogs, and kids and does well with all. If you are interested in adopting Sox, come down and meet him today!

Mango is a gorgeous 5-year-old Sun Conure surrendered to the shelter.

Conures eat a steady diet of grains, veggies and fruit and can live up to 30 years. If you are ready for the lifelong commitment of owning a Sun Conure, Mango could be the one for you! Come down to the shelter to adopt him today!

Viola

Wanda

Viola is a super sweet 2-year-old kitty searching for her forever home. She is a wonderful cat that would fit into almost any home since she gets along with dogs and kids of all ages but she has never lived with other cats. If you are looking for an young adult cat, Viola could be the one for you! Come down to the shelter to adopt her today!

Wanda is a very loving and beautiful 5-year-old tortoiseshell cat that was brought to the shelter as a stray and sadly never reclaimed. This great girl is both playful and energetic as well as lap loving and mellow. If you think Wanda is the one for your home then come by the shelter and adopt her today!

Alice

Alice and her two kittens arrived to the shelter after somebody found them. Her kittens were very young and Alice and her kittens were placed in one of our wonderful foster homes. She is about a year old and ready to find her forever home. She loves to snuggle and enjoys attention. If you have room in your heart and your home, come down and meet Alice today!

Sweet Pea

Sweet Pea is a beautiful 5-year-old cat looking for her purrfect match in life.

She was brought to the shelter after her owners could no longer afford to care for her. Sweet Pea has been here at HSCO for entirely too long. If you think Sweet Pea would be a good fit for your family then come by the shelter and adopt her today!

Mimi’s Trivia:

Manny

Manny is a loving guy looking for a home that will last a lifetime. He was brought to the shelter as a stray and sadly was never reclaimed. Manny is a 7-year-old Pointer/ Labrador mix that loves everyone he meets. Manny’s ideal home will be ready for plenty of exercise to help him lose a few pounds. If you think that Manny is the dog of your dreams, come down today and take him for a walk!

Buford

Buford is a very sweet 4-year-old Beagle mix that was brought to the shelter because his owner had to move and sadly was not able to take poor Buford with. He is shy and needs a home without children under 10 years. Buford loves to play and would make a great dog for an active family. If you think you have the perfect forever home for this wonderful little guy then come by the shelter and adopt him today!

Star

Star is a high energy gal looking for a high energy companion! She was brought to the shelter after her owner moved without her. Star is a 3-year-old Pit Bull mix. Star does well with other dogs as well as calm confident cats but does need a home with children over the age of 15 years. If you are a homeowner and think you are ready for this 5 star companion, come down today!

Carla

Carla is a sweet girl looking for a quiet place to call home. We estimate that she is around 9-years-old and a Chihuahua mix. Carla is sweet and gentle and loves attention. A home that can be patient with her while she adjusts to her new family and animal friends is a must! If you think this calm girl is the one you’ve been looking for, come down and adopt her today!

Reese

Reese is a very cute 1-year-old Chihuahua looking for his forever home.

Unfortunately, he came in to the shelter as a stray, so we don’t know anything about his previous history. Reese can be a little shy at first and will need a family that is willing to work with him on trusting people. If you think you have the time and energy for this fantastic little dog then come by the shelter and adopt him today!

Did you know that Missi, a Maine Coon from Finland, holds the world record for the longest whisker measuring in at 7.5 inches long?

LEGAL NOTICE TRUSTEE'S NOTICE OF SALE Pursuant to O.R.S. 86.705 et seq. and O.R.S. 79.5010, et seq.

Trustee's Sale No. 09-FMB-110332 NOTICE TO BORROWER: YOU SHOULD BE AWARE THAT THE UNDERSIGNED IS ATTEMPTING TO COLLECT A DEBT AND THAT ANY INFORMATION OBTAINED WILL BE USED FOR THAT PURPOSE.Reference is made to that certain Deed of Trust made by, GWEN E. HOGUE, as grantor, to FIRST AMERICAN TITLE INSURANCE COMPANY OF OREGON, as Trustee, in favor of MORTGAGE ELECTRONIC REGISTRATION SYSTEMS, INC. AS NOMINEE FOR SIERRA PACIFIC MORTGAGE COMPANY, INC., as beneficiary, dated 10/9/2003, recorded 10/14/2003, under Instrument No. 2003-70986, records of DESCHUTES County, OREGON. The beneficial interest under said Trust Deed and the obligations secured thereby are presently held by ONEWEST BANK, FSB. Said Trust Deed encumbers the following described real property situated in said county and state, to-wit: LOT 32 OF HOLLOW PINE ESTATES, PHASE II, DESCHUTES COUNTY, OREGON. The street address or other common designation, if any, of the real property described above is purported to be: 138 SOUTHEAST AIRPARK DRIVE BEND, OR 97702 The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the above street address or other common designation. Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell the said real property to satisfy the obligations secured by said trust deed and a notice of default has been recorded pursuant to Oregon Revised Statutes 86.735(3); the default for which the foreclosure is made is grantor's failure to pay when due, the following sums: Amount due as of June 15, 2011 Delinquent Payments from July 01, 2010 3 payments at $ 1,129.42 each $ 3,388.26 2 payments at $ 1,842.18 each $ 3,684.36 7 payments at $ 1,785.20 each $ 12,496.40 (07-01-10 through 06-15-11) Late Charges: $ 650.70 Beneficiary Advances: $ 2,794.50 Suspense Credit: $ 0.00 TOTAL: $ 23,014.22 ALSO, if you have failed to pay taxes on the property, provide insurance on the property or pay other senior liens or encumbrances as required in the note and deed of trust, the beneficiary may insist that you do so in order to reinstate your account in good standing. The beneficiary may require as a condition to reinstatement that you provide reliable written evidence that you have paid all senior liens or encumbrances, property taxes, and hazard insurance premiums. These requirements for reinstatement should be confirmed by contacting the undersigned Trustee. By reason of said default, the beneficiary has declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by said trust deed immediately due and payable, said sums being the following: UNPAID PRINCIPAL BALANCE OF $216,136.49, PLUS interest thereon at 3.5% per annum from 06/01/10 to 10/1/2010, 3.5% per annum from 10/01/10 to 12/01/10, 3% per annum from 12/01/10 to 10/01/11, 3% per annum from 10/1/2011, until paid, together with escrow advances, foreclosure costs, trustee fees, attorney fees, sums required for the protection of the property and additional sums secured by the Deed of Trust. WHEREFORE, notice hereby is given that the undersigned trustee, will on October 21, 2011, at the hour of 11:00 AM, in accord with the standard of time established by ORS 187.110, at FRONT ENTRANCE TO THE DESCHUTES COUNTY COURTHOUSE, 1164 NW BOND STREET, BEND, County of DESCHUTES, State of OREGON, sell at public auction to the highest bidder for cash, the interest in the said described property which the grantor had, or had the power to convey, at the time of the execution by him of the said trust deed, together with any interest which the grantor or his successors in interest acquired after the execution of said trust deed, to satisfy the foregoing obligations thereby secured and the costs and expenses of sale, including a reasonable charge by the trustee. Notice is further given that any person named in ORS 86.753 has the right, at any time prior to five days before the date last set for the sale, to have this foreclosure proceeding dismissed and the trust deed reinstated by payment to the beneficiary of the entire amount then due (other than such portion of the principal as would not then be due had no default occurred) and by curing any other default complained of herein that is capable of being cured by tendering the performance required under the obligation or trust deed, and in addition to paying said sums or tendering the performance necessary to cure the default, by paying all costs and expenses actually incurred in enforcing the obligation and trust deed, together with trustee's and attorney's fees not exceeding the amounts provided by said ORS 86.753. In construing this notice, the masculine gender includes the feminine and the neuter, the singular includes the plural, the word "grantor" includes any successor in interest to the grantor as well as any other person owing an obligation, the performance of which is secured by said trust deed, and the words "trustee" and "beneficiary" include their respective successors in interest, if any. Anyone having any objection to the sale on any grounds whatsoever will be afforded an opportunity to be heard as to those objections if they bring a lawsuit to restrain the same. NOTICE TO RESIDENTIAL TENANTS: The property in which you are living is in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale is scheduled for October 21, 2011. Unless the lender who is foreclosing on this property is paid, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. The following information applies to you only if you occupy and rent this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a residential tenant. If the foreclosure goes through, the business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale has the right to require you to move out. The buyer must first give you an eviction notice in writing that specifies the date by which you must move out. The buyer may not give you this notice until after the foreclosure sale happens. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the buyer can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES YOU TO BE NOTIFIED IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNDER A LEGITIMATE RENTAL AGREEMENT, FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE THE BUYER CAN REQUIRE YOU TO MOVE OUT. THE FEDERAL LAW THAT REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU THIS NOTICE IS EFFECTIVE UNTIL DECEMBER 31, 2012.

Under federal law, the buyer must give you at least 90 days notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If you are renting this property under a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), you may stay until the end of your lease term. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 90 days left. STATE LAW NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS: IF THE FEDERAL LAW DOES NOT APPLY, STATE LAW STILL REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING BEFORE REQUIRING YOU TO MOVE OUT IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THE PROPERTY AS A TENANT IN GOOD FAITH. EVEN IF THE FEDERAL LAW REQUIREMENT IS NO LONGER EFFECTIVE AFTER DECEMBER 31, 2012, THE REQUIREMENT UNDER STATE LAW STILL APPLIES TO YOUR SITUATION. Under state law, if you have a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), the buyer must give you at least 60 days notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 30 days left. If you are renting under a month-to-month or week-to-week rental agreement, the buyer must give you at least 30 days notice in writing before requiring you to move out. IMPORTANT: For the buyer to be required to give you notice under state law, you must prove to the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale that you are occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The name and address of the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale is shown on this notice under the heading "TRUSTEE". You must mail or deliver your proof not later than 9/21/2011 (30 days before the date first set for the foreclosure sale). Your proof must be in writing and should be a copy of your rental agreement or lease. If you do not have a written rental agreement or lease, you can provide other proof, such as receipts for rent you paid. ABOUT YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT Under state law, you may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from you rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe you current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR TENANCY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out. You should contact the buyer to discuss that possibility if you would like to stay. Under state law, if the buyer accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the buyer becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise, the buyer is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf and you must move out by the date the buyer specifies in a notice to you. YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD TO ANOTHER BUSINESS OR INDIVIDUAL OR UNTIL A COURT OR A LENDER TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. AS EXPLAINED ABOVE, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO APPLY A DEPOSIT YOU MADE OR PREPAID RENT YOU PAID AGAINST YOUR CURRENT RENT OBLIGATION. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE AND OF ANY NOTICE YOU GIVE OR RECEIVE CONCERNING THE APPLICATION OF YOUR DEPOSIT OR YOUR PREPAID RENT. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR HOME WITHOUT FIRST GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU MAY WISH TO CONSULT A LAWYER. If you believe you need legal assistance, contact the Oregon State Bar at 800-452-7636 and ask for lawyer referral service. Contact information for the Oregon State Bar is included with this notice. If you do not have enough money to pay a lawyer and are otherwise eligible, you may be able to receive legal assistance for free.

The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a residential tenant. If the foreclosure goes through, the business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale has the right to require you to move out. The buyer must first give you an eviction notice in writing that specifies the date by which you must move out. The buyer may not give you this notice until after the foreclosure sale happens. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the buyer can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES YOU TO BE NOTIFIED IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNDER A LEGITIMATE RENTAL AGREEMENT, FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE THE BUYER CAN REQUIRE YOU TO MOVE OUT. THE FEDERAL LAW THAT REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU THIS NOTICE IS EFFECTIVE UNTIL DECEMBER 31, 2012.

Under federal law, the buyer must give you at least 90 days notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If you are renting this property under a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), you may stay until the end of your lease term. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 90 days left. STATE LAW NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS: IF THE FEDERAL LAW DOES NOT APPLY, STATE LAW STILL REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING BEFORE REQUIRING YOU TO MOVE OUT IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THE PROPERTY AS A TENANT IN GOOD FAITH. EVEN IF THE FEDERAL LAW REQUIREMENT IS NO LONGER EFFECTIVE AFTER DECEMBER 31, 2012, THE REQUIREMENT UNDER STATE LAW STILL APPLIES TO YOUR SITUATION. Under state law, if you have a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), the buyer must give you at least 60 days notice in writing before requiring you to move out.

Anyone having any objection to the sale on any grounds whatsoever will be afforded an opportunity to be heard as to those objections if they bring a lawsuit to restrain the same. NOTICE TO RESIDENTIAL TENANTS: The property in which you are living is in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale is scheduled for October 14, 2011. Unless the lender who is foreclosing on this property is paid, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. The following information applies to you only if you occupy and rent this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a residential tenant. If the foreclosure goes through, the business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale has the right to require you to move out. The buyer must first give you an eviction notice in writing that specifies the date by which you must move out. The buyer may not give you this notice until after the foreclosure sale happens. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the buyer can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES YOU TO BE NOTIFIED IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING UNDER A LEGITIMATE RENTAL AGREEMENT, FEDERAL LAW REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING A CERTAIN NUMBER OF DAYS BEFORE THE BUYER CAN REQUIRE YOU TO MOVE OUT. THE FEDERAL LAW THAT REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU THIS NOTICE IS EFFECTIVE UNTIL DECEMBER 31, 2012.

Under federal law, the buyer must give you at least 90 days notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If you are renting this property under a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or one-year lease), you may stay until the end of your lease term. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 90 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 90 days left. STATE LAW NOTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS: IF THE FEDERAL LAW DOES NOT APPLY, STATE LAW STILL REQUIRES THE BUYER TO GIVE YOU NOTICE IN WRITING BEFORE REQUIRING YOU TO MOVE OUT IF YOU ARE OCCUPYING AND RENTING THE PROPERTY AS A TENANT IN GOOD FAITH. EVEN IF THE FEDERAL LAW REQUIREMENT IS NO LONGER EFFECTIVE AFTER DECEMBER 31, 2012, THE REQUIREMENT UNDER STATE LAW STILL APPLIES TO YOUR SITUATION. Under state law, if you have a fixed-term lease (for example, a six-month or oneyear lease), the buyer must give you at least 60 days notice in writing before requiring you to move out. If the buyer wants to move in and use this property as the buyer's primary residence, the buyer can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even if you have a fixed-term lease with more than 30 days left. If you are renting under a month-to-month or week-to-week rental agreement, the buyer must give you at least 30 days notice in writing before requiring you to move out. IMPORTANT: For the buyer to be required to give you notice under state law, you must prove to the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale that you are occupying and renting this property as a residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The name and address of the business or individual who is handling the foreclosure sale is shown on this notice under the heading "TRUSTEE". You must mail or deliver your proof not later than 9/14/2011 (30 days before the date first set for the foreclosure sale). Your proof must be in writing and should be a copy of your rental agreement or lease. If you do not have a written rental agreement or lease, you can provide other proof, such as receipts for rent you paid. ABOUT YOUR SECURITY DEPOSIT Under state law, you may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from you rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe you current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR TENANCY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out. You should contact the buyer to discuss that possibility if you would like to stay. Under state law, if the buyer accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the buyer becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property. Otherwise, the buyer is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf and you must move out by the date the buyer specifies in a notice to you. YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD TO ANOTHER BUSINESS OR INDIVIDUAL OR UNTIL A COURT OR A LENDER TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. AS EXPLAINED ABOVE, YOU MAY BE ABLE TO APPLY A DEPOSIT YOU MADE OR PREPAID RENT YOU PAID AGAINST YOUR CURRENT RENT OBLIGATION. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE AND OF ANY NOTICE YOU GIVE OR RECEIVE CONCERNING THE APPLICATION OF YOUR DEPOSIT OR YOUR PREPAID RENT. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR HOME WITHOUT FIRST GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU MAY WISH TO CONSULT A LAWYER. If you believe you need legal assistance, contact the Oregon State Bar at 800-452-7636 and ask for lawyer referral service.

Contact information for the Oregon State Bar is included with this notice. If you do not have enough money to pay a lawyer and are otherwise eligible, you may be able to receive legal assistance for free.
