Skyline Forest sale unresolved, but land trust isn’t worried

By Dylan J. Darling The Bulletin

While the wait to buy the Skyline Forest west of Bend continues for the Deschutes Land Trust, the group’s leader said he isn’t worried that a timber company might swoop in and buy the once-productive property.

“Frankly, there is no timber market for it out there today, and there aren’t other developers looking to buy it at this time,” said Brad Chalfant, executive director of the Bend-based land conservation group.

Fidelity National Timber Resources, a subsidiary of Jacksonville,

Fla.-based Fidelity National Financial, owns the 33,000-acre property between Bend and Sisters. The state passed legislation in 2009 that allows the company to sell most of the land while keeping a piece of it for residential development.

“The idea is that the land isn’t get-

ting locked away,” he said.

While trails would cross the forest and some timber would be harvested each year to repay loans, Chalfant said the land trust’s ownership of the forest would protect 30,000 acres from development.

County alters where resorts can go

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

Deschutes County commissioners voted on Monday to dramatically reduce the amount of land eligible for resort development, from more than 112,000 acres to 22,000.

The county also added 1,300 acres to the resort map, including a 400-acre parcel owned by Oregon’s Department of State Lands and three other parcels totaling 895 acres south of Sunriver, owned by Pine Forest DevelInside opment LLC, • Updated Belveron Real resort Estate Partners map, A4 LLC and Vandevert Road LLC. The Department of State Lands’ properties include parcels the agency leases to owners of the 1,980acre proposed Thornburgh Resort site.

The county has the most destination resorts of any county in the state. Much of the land removed from the resort eligibility map actually did not qualify for resort development because it did not meet requirements such as having 160 contiguous acres.

“We’ll cross our fingers there is no appeal,” said Deschutes County Principal Planner Peter Gutowsky. The commissioners’ approval started a 21-day appeal period, during which an opponent could appeal the map to Oregon’s Land Use Board of Appeals.

ter damage to the building.

“They did such a good repair job, you can’t even tell that anything happened,” Wyeth said of recent construction work.

The repair process was a massive undertaking. Because of the water damage, drywall circling the inside of the building had to be removed so construction crews could dry out the affected areas. In addition, the roof underwent major repairs, and many areas around the building needed to be repainted. Bookshelves and other smaller items were also destroyed in the flood.

Big-rig drivers try to steer clear of unhealthy habits

Separating you and me?

4.74 degrees

By John Markoff and Somini Sengupta New York Times News Service

The world is even smaller than you thought.

Adding a new chapter to the research behind the phrase “six degrees of separation” into the language, scientists at Facebook and the University of Milan reported Monday that the average number of acquaintances separating any two people was not six but 4.74.

The original “six degrees” finding, published in 1967 by the psychologist Stanley Milgram, was drawn from 296 volunteers who were asked to send a postcard, through friends and then friends of friends, to a specific person in a Boston suburb.

The new research used a slightly bigger cohort: 721 million Facebook users, more than one-tenth of the world’s population.

Panel admits defeat; now automatic cuts New York Times News Service WASHINGTON — Leaders of the congressional committee charged with finding at least $1.2 trillion in deficit reductions conceded Monday that panel members had failed, setting up what is likely to be a yearlong political fight over the automatic cuts to a broad range of military and domestic programs that would go into effect starting in 2013 as a result of their inability to reach a deal.

Speaking an hour after the committee’s failure was announced by its leaders in an email statement, President Barack Obama promised to veto any legislation that seeks to avoid the automatic cuts.

The president also pledged that “one way or another” the deficit would be trimmed by at least $2.2 trillion, the only question being whether it was with a “scalpel, not a hatchet.”

The president’s reference to $2.2 trillion includes $1 trillion in savings that both parties agreed to in August.

The panel’s demise followed more than 10 weeks of partisan division that seemed to seal the image of Congress, and all of Washington, as a place where nothing can be accomplished, even when the consequences of failure are clearly visible to the American people and abhorrent to both political parties.

In a statement, the panel’s leaders, Rep. Jeb Hensarling, RTexas, and Sen. Patty Murray, D-Wash., said, “After months of hard work and intense deliberations, we have come to the conclusion today that it will not be possible to make any bipartisan agreement available to the public before the committee’s deadline.”

The statement left open the possibility of a new stage of negotiations in the full Con-

Deficit panel’s failure cuts 2 ways WASHINGTON — The latest congressional failure to agree on a plan for balancing the government’s books could yield a surprising result: a sharp reduction in annual federal deficits, larger than anything contemplated by the special panel that reached its fruitless finale Monday.

But the absence of an agreement also threatens to significantly slow growth in an already ailing economy by raising taxes on almost everyone while reducing government spending on almost everything.

Tax cuts passed in the Bush administration will expire at the end of 2012. By law, the panel’s failure triggers new caps on spending, cutting $1.2 trillion from the military, education, health care and other priorities over 10 years beginning next fall.

The combined impact of higher tax rates and less spending would reverse the growth of annual deficits beginning in 2013, reducing by more than half the current $1.3 trillion gap between annual revenue and spending.

That has inverted the normal reality, in which federal spending rises inexorably unless Congress musters the political will to impose cuts. Now, although both parties say they are committed to more gradual approaches to deficit reduc-

gress, where lawmakers will try to reach an agreement on a tax overhaul, changes to entitlement programs and new revenues as a way to avoid automatic across-the-board cuts over 10 years.

Short-term matters, like the expiration at the end of this

tion, an agreement is required to avoid the fiscal equivalent of shock therapy.

“There could be a bit of a silver lining,” said Rosanne Altshuler, an economist at Rutgers University who served on President George W. Bush’s 2005 tax reform panel. “It forces us to come to terms with cuts in areas that have been difficult to touch — the military and Medicare. We may not like how the cuts are going to be done, but we better start dealing with the fact that cuts are going to have to be made.”

The latest committee, created in August as part of a deal to let the federal government borrow more money, was charged with identifying at least $1.2 trillion in spending cuts over the next decade. Its failure forces the same amount of spending cuts, with half the money coming from the military budget.

The immediate economic impact depends first on investors, who must decide whether they are now any more concerned about the nation’s financial condition. Any increase in the interest rates that the government must pay would widen the deficit, as would any decrease in economic growth.

But while stock market indexes fell sharply Monday, investors continue to pay for the opportunity to lend money to the United States.

Protesters carry a man wounded during clashes with Egyptian police Monday in Cairo’s Tahrir Square. Egypt’s government handed in its resignation Monday, trying to stem the crisis.

Egypt’s civilian Cabinet offers to resign as protests rage on The Associated Press CAIRO — Egypt’s civilian Cabinet offered to resign Monday after three days of violent clashes between demonstrators and security forces in Tahrir Square, but the action failed to satisfy protesters deeply frustrated with the new military rulers.

The Health Ministry and a

doctor at an improvised field hospital on the square said at least 26 people have been killed and 1,750 wounded in the latest violence as activists sought to fill the streets for a “second revolution” to force out the generals who have failed to stabilize the country, salvage the economy or bring democracy.

Throughout the day, young

protesters demanding the military hand over power to a civilian government fought with black-clad police, hurling stones and firebombs and throwing back the tear gas canisters being fired by police into the square, which was the epicenter of the movement that ousted authoritarian leader Hosni Mubarak.

OCCUPY PROTESTS

Incensed students dig in their heels New York Times News Service LOS ANGELES — It has become something of an annual tradition on California college campuses, in what is perhaps the most prestigious state university system in the country: The state makes large cuts in public universities, they in turn raise tuition, and students respond with angry protests.

But this year, propelled in

part by the fervor of the Occupy Wall Street movement and in part by the state of the economy and California’s mountainous budget woes, the battle is sharpening. Indeed, the Occupy movement — on campuses, at least — is transforming itself into a student-led crusade against increases in tuition.

A video that showed two University of California, Davis, po-

lice officers using pepper spray on seated protesters has gone viral, with hundreds of thousands watching what might have been a relatively small encampment compared with the larger protests across the country. On Monday Chancellor Linda P.B. Katehi said she was putting the campus police chief on administrative leave as a way to rebuild trust on campus.

U.S. uses health-care More details law to challenge insurer emerge in

By Noam N. Levey Los Angeles Times

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration Monday called on a health insurance company in Pennsylvania to reduce what it is charging small businesses, using a tool in the new health-care law for the first time to pressure insurers to restrain rising premiums.

Officials at the Department of Health and Human Services determined that Everence Insurance Co.’s plan to raise rates on about 5,000 people in Pennsylvania by nearly 12 percent next year is unreasonable.

That rate is not justified by what the insurer was expected to pay out in medical claims in the state, said Sec-

retary of Health and Human Services Kathleen Sebelius.

“We’re calling on the insurance company to immediately withdraw this rate and provide refunds or credits to any beneficiaries who have already paid the unreasonable amount,” Sebelius said, promising that the Everence review would be “the first of many” to come.

Indiana-based Everence stood by the rate increase and disputed the federal government’s analysis, asserting that its review of claims data justifies the premium hike.

“We have no plans to make any changes,” said spokeswoman Judy Martin Godshalk. The company would welcome a discussion with federal regulators, she said.

Ex-FBI director to head Penn State investigation Bloomberg News Pennsylvania State University has hired Louis Freeh, former director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, to conduct an independent probe of the child sex-abuse scandal that has rocked the school.

The investigation will examine all aspects of the allegations of child sexual molestation by a former Penn State football coach and the school’s response, said Ken Frazier, a member of the board of trustees who’s leading a special committee on the scandal.

He spoke Monday at a Philadelphia press conference.

The probe will show no favoritism to any parties at Penn State, including members of the board, said Freeh, FBI director from 1993 to 2001.

“Our mandate is clear,” Freeh said at the press conference. “We have been tasked to investigate the matter fully, fairly and completely.”

bomb plot

New York Times News Service NEW YORK — The suspect had little money to speak of, was unable to pay his cellphone bill and scrounged for money to buy the drill bits that court papers said he needed to make his pipe bombs. He apparently needed a place to build the devices, and initially had trouble drilling the small holes that needed to be made in the metal tubes.

The suspect, Jose Pimentel, according to several people briefed on the case, would seek help from a neighbor in Upper Manhattan as well as a confidential informer. That informer provided companionship and a staging area so Pimentel, a Muslim convert, could build three pipe bombs while the New York Police Department’s Intelligence Division built its case.

But it was the informer’s role, and that of his police handlers, that have now been cited as among the reasons why the FBI, which had its own parallel investigation of Pimentel, did not pursue the case.

White House shooting suspect in federal court New York Times News Service WASHINGTON — An Idaho man accused of firing a semi-automatic rifle at the White House in what prosecutors say was an attempt to assassinate President Barack Obama appeared Monday in federal court, where his lawyer asked that the charges against the man, Oscar Ramiro Ortega-Hernandez, be dismissed.

At a hearing lasting less than 20 minutes, Magistrate Judge Alan Kay ordered Ortega to be held and approved a psychiatric evaluation of his competence for trial before a hearing next Monday.

Ortega, 21, appeared in a long white T-shirt and maroon pants, his hands cuffed in front of him and affixed to chains around his waist. He responded to questions from Kay, saying he understood the proceedings and stating his name in a quiet but clear voice.

When asked whether he had any money to hire a lawyer, Ortega said, “No, I do not.” After sitting down, he quietly faced the judge, and at one point he impassively glanced back at the courtroom audience.

Resorts Continued from A1 Central Oregon Landwatch appealed the procedure the county used to make changes to the resort eligibility map.

The land use advocacy group objected to a controversial exemption the county commission issued to protect the resort plans of the Cyrus family, near Sisters. In March, the Land Use Board of Appeals upheld this section of the county’s remapping process.

“There are thousands of vacant lots out there in existing destination resorts,” Paul Dewey, an attorney for Central Oregon LandWatch, said on Monday. “Why on earth the county wants to expand mapping for more is just not understandable.”

Dewey said that by adding land to the resort map near Sunriver, the county is diluting home values in the Sunriver area and “really not taking into consideration the people who already live in these communities.”

The additional development could impact residents’ sewer systems and other public facilities, Dewey said.

County planners and officials have worked on the resort map changes since 2008.

Commissioner Tammy Baney said the subject of changes to the destination resort map was contentious, so she was impressed by the public process that planners carried out.

“It’s a testament to your ability to answer questions,” Baney said.

Commissioner Alan Unger said the changes will result in “a more realistic map.”

“As we’ve gone through the process, the opportunity for resorts has kind of changed with the economy,” Unger said. “I think it was a good process, and I appreciate that staff has been open to the public. We’ve respected people’s wishes.”

While resort development came to a halt during the real estate crash, Gutowsky said developers might have a larger window of time to decide what to do in the future. That

is because preliminary population estimates from Portland State University have lowered the projections for the future. State law currently prohibits resorts within 24 air miles of cities with populations of more than 100,000,

unless the resorts limit the number of single-family homes.

Planners previously estimated Bend’s population would reach 100,000 by 2017 or 2018.

“But with the downturn in

the economy, that projection I think is going to get pushed out even longer,” Gutowsky said. “What that means for destination resorts is more time.”

Skyline Continued from A1 The legislation gave the possible sale of the land a five-year window, which is now about half closed, Chalfant said. A $4 million federal grant for the purchase, channeled to the land trust through the Oregon Department of Forestry, also hinges on Fidelity making a deal to sell the land in the next couple of years.

“We hope to put together a deal soon …” Chalfant said, “but that’s all according to their timeline.”

The company is in negotiations with the land trust, said Nancy Craven, vice president of Fidelity National Timber Resources.

She said she couldn’t offer a timeline for the deal.

“It all takes time,” she said.

The company owns the land through Cascade Timberlands LLC, which has offices in Bend and Portland.

Craven said conversations between the company and the land trust are going well and appraisers are still evaluating the property.

As part of the Skyline Forest legislation, Fidelity National Timber Resources would keep 3,000 acres in the northwest corner of the forest, Chalfant said. Of that, 1,200 acres would likely be developed into about 280 home sites.

Craven said the residential development – which wouldn’t have a golf course, per the legislation – would have a road connecting to U.S. Highway 20.

While the talks continue, the forest is open to the public, although roads through it are closed from Dec. 1 to March 31 to avoid disturbing wintering deer.

The Bull Springs Creek Trail, a 4-mile loop, is already drawing hikers and the forest has “huge potential” for more trail development, Chalfant said.

While people might not recognize the Skyline Forest by name, he said they likely would by sight.

“It’s the green hills below the high Cascades (above Bend),” he said.

Degrees Continued from A1 The findings were posted on Facebook’s website Monday night.

The experiment took one month. The researchers used a set of algorithms developed at the University of Milan to calculate the average distance between any two people by computing a vast number of sample paths among Facebook users. They found that the average number of links from one arbitrarily selected person to another was 4.74. In the United States, where more than half of people over 13 are on Facebook, it was just 4.37.

“When considering even the most distant Facebook user in the Siberian tundra or the Peruvian rain forest,” the company wrote on its blog, “a friend of your friend probably knows a friend of their friend.” The caveat there is “Facebook user” — like the Milgram study, the cohort was a self-selected group, in this case people with online access who use a particular website.

Though the study was by far the largest of its kind, it raised questions about definitions of terms like “friend” on Facebook.

A Microsoft study in 2008, using a more conservative definition of friend, found an average chain of 6.6 people in a group of 240 million who exchanged chat messages.

Eric Horvitz, a Microsoft researcher who led the study in 2008, said that network was based on people who exchanged messages, rather than those who identified as “buddies.”

“There is an issue of how many friends you actually have,” he said. But, he said, the Internet might have altered the definition.

“My own notion of what a friend is has evolved,” he said.

Jon Kleinberg, a computer science professor at Cornell and a faculty adviser to an author of the new study, said some links

“We are close, in a sense, to people who don’t necessarily like us, sympathize with us or have anything in common with us. It’s the weak ties that make the world small.”

— Jon Kleinberg, computer science professor, Cornell University

might be more meaningful than others.

He offered the example of a man wanted for a crime. A random Facebook user might discover that she took a class with someone who rented an apartment from someone who grew up with the suspect. They may all be connected as Facebook “friends.”

“We are close, in a sense, to people who don’t necessarily like us, sympathize with us or have anything in common with us,” Kleinberg said. “It’s the weak ties that make the world small.”

Still, he noted that such ties were hardly meaningless.

“We should ask what things spread well on weak ties,” he said. “News spreads well on weak ties. Those people I met on vacation, if they send me some cool news, I might send that to my friends. If they send me something about a protest movement, I might not.”

Matthew O. Jackson, an economist at Stanford who studies social networks, raised questions about the bias built into a study based on random samples. He said the study confirmed Facebook’s success in being where millions of people communicate.

“It’s more evidence that they’ve been enormously successful at connecting a large number of people very well,” he said.

The research underscores the growing power of the emerging science of social networks, in which scientists

study the ways people interact by crunching gigantic sets of Internet data.

“These social network tools provide individuals with tremendous reach,” said Horvitz, the Microsoft researcher.

“People can share ideas with only a few jumps to a large portion of the world’s population and with even fewer steps to the entire population of a nation.”

In addition to social scientists, a new generation of Internet commerce is using social network research to market products, and Pentagon sleuths are using similar techniques to identify networks of insurgents.

The “six degrees” concept dates to a 1929 short story, “Chains,” in which Frigyes Karinthy, the Hungarian author, suggested that no one is more than a string of six friends away from any other person.

After Milgram published his famous paper “The Small World Problem,” in 1967, the playwright John Guare made “Six Degrees of Separation,” the title of a 1990 play that explored Milgram’s premise. And that gave rise to the parlor game Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon, in which disparate Hollywood personalities are linked to one another. (Elvis Presley was in “Change of Habit” with Edward Asner; Asner was in “JFK” with Kevin Bacon.)

The Facebook paper, titled “Four Degrees of Separation,” notes that Milgram posed

both an optimistic interpretation of his findings and a pessimistic one.

On one hand, it is a startling notion that reaching someone on the other side of the world takes only a small group of social connections.

On the other hand, Milgram said, the result could also be evidence of psychological distance: that we were actually, on average, five “worlds apart.”

“From this gloomier perspective,” the new paper says, “it is reassuring to see that our findings show that people are in fact only four worlds apart, and not five.”

Continued from A1 The entire cost of the damage is unknown at this point, Wyeth said. The Bend Park & Recreation District had estimated repairs would cost around $300,000. The park district owns the building and is paying for the costs, Wyeth said.

Other costs included moving items back and forth between buildings and increasing the number of staff present at the church location. These costs were taken on by the club, Wyeth said.

Recently, the club received an emergency grant for $30,000 from the Meyer Memorial Trust. In addition, it was able to raise $26,000 at a recent fundraiser.

The repairs to the building are almost complete.

The branch will close for a two-week period beginning Dec. 19 while the gym floor goes through one more round of restoration.

Wyeth, who was able to work in his office at the building during construction, said there was a sadness to the building without the club members there.

“For a lot of the kids in the program, this place is like a second home,” Wyeth said.

Over the last week, staff, volunteers and club members worked to move back into the repaired building.

This meant moving Foosball tables, furniture and play equipment from the church.

Work was still going on Monday even after the club officially reopened the Wall Street location’s doors. Teenagers painted their “Teen Zone” room on the top floor of the building, adding bright stripes of red and orange to the walls.

Meanwhile, staff members constructed bookshelves downstairs and unpacked boxes.

“It feels good being back home,” said club member Marissa Kuehne, 17. “It feels more comfortable here.”

Marissa has been with the Boys & Girls Club of Bend for almost nine years, and says there’s a real sense of belonging at the location.

Alley McCormick, the education director of the club, said despite all the work associated with the move she’s happy the building has reopened.

“Both the staff and the kids are excited to be back,” McCormick said. “The kids take a lot of pride in this building.”

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

“You hear Snickers are healthy because of the nuts, that they give you energy. But when you read the label you realize they’re surrounded by caramel.”

Truckers Continued from A1 Williams’ predicament is hardly unique. On the road for weeks on end, with the sorts of diets that make nutritionists apoplectic, the nation’s truckers are in pretty bad shape. Now, beset by rising insurance costs and desperate to ensure their drivers pass government health tests, trucking companies and industry groups are working hard to persuade road warriors to change their habits.

It’s a long haul, so to speak.

Eighty-six percent of the estimated 3.2 million truck drivers in the United States are overweight or obese, according to a 2007 study in The Journal of the American Dietetic Association.

“Obesity is a terrible problem in the trucking industry,” said Brett Blowers, director of marketing and development for the Healthy Trucking Association of America, an industry organization in Montgomery, Ala. A few years ago, Blowers’ group conducted a blood pressure screening of more than 2,000 drivers at an annual truck show. “We sent 21 directly to the emergency room, and one of them had a heart attack on the way there,” he recalled.

It’s a problem not just for truckers, but for anyone who shares the road with them. In 2010, heavy and tractor-trailer truck drivers accounted for 13 percent of all fatal occupational injuries, according to preliminary data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. A 2007 report from the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration found that 87 percent of crashes involving truckers stemmed to some degree from driver error.

Twelve percent of these cases were because the driver was asleep, had a heart attack, was in diabetic shock or had some other health problem.

“Of the accidents that are preventable, I’d say about 10 to 25 percent, if not higher, were from drivers who were tired, had sleep apnea or were not physically fit,” said Chad Hoppenjan, director of transportation safety services at Cottingham and Butler, an insurance broker in Dubuque, Iowa.

The U.S. Transportation Department requires truck drivers to pass a certifying medical exam every two years. Drivers are checked for severe heart conditions, high blood pressure and respiratory maladies, including sleep disorders.

While the statistics are bleak, they’re not especially surprising. Driving is a sedentary activity. Most truckers are paid by the mile, so they tend to squeeze out every last second of the 11 hours they’re allowed on the road in a 24-hour period.

“Some days I’ve driven 600 miles and didn’t even stop,” said Barb Waugh, 58, of Fairfax, S.D., one of an estimated 190,000 female truckers. In a typical week she logs 2,500 to 4,000 miles. “I feel like a marshmallow because I don’t get to exercise,” said Waugh, who weighs about 300 pounds.

Oran Clay, a truck driver, jumps rope during Driver Appreciation Day at the Texas Star Express, in Rockwall, Texas. Trucking companies and industry groups are working to persuade drivers to eat and act healthier. According to a 2007 study, 86 percent of the estimated 3.2 million truck drivers in the United States are overweight or obese.

holding health seminars, building on-site gyms, bringing in nutritionists and fitness trainers, and offering financial incentives to employees who stop smoking or lose weight.

Lindora Clinic, which operates weight-loss centers, last year unveiled “Lean for Life On-the-Road,” a nutrition and exercise program for the trucking community. The company has teamed up with the Truckload Carriers Association, which represents 400 carriers, for a “Trucker Weight Loss Showdown” to begin in January. For two and a half months, 10 fleets, each composed of six drivers and six office workers, will exercise and follow lowcarb, low-fat, moderate-protein diets.

This year, TravelCenters of America/Petro unrolled a program called StayFit, which includes fitness rooms, mapped walking trails and healthier foods at its stops. Snap Fitness, an international chain of gyms, has announced plans to open a workout facility at one, and perhaps many more, of the 550 Pilot Flying J Travel Centers across the country.

While concern for driver health is certainly a force behind the wellness initiatives, economics also plays a role.

The trucking industry is grappling with sky-high insurance rates and rising medical costs.

The 2010 Cottingham and Butler Trucking Compensation and Benefits Benchmark Survey, an annual report for the trucking industry, found that deductibles and out-of-pocket costs to truck drivers and their employers are 40 to 70 percent higher than in other industries.

“It just keeps going and going, and you don’t know how to control it,” said Sidney Brown, chief executive officer of NFI, a logistics company in Cherry Hill, N.J. To help cut costs, his company has started quarterly wellness newsletters, free smoking cessation workshops, discounts with WeightWatchers and Anytime Fitness, and a companywide “Biggest Loser” competition.

The industry also is struggling to retain veteran drivers while recruiting new ones.

According to Debbie Sparks, vice president of development for the Truckload Carriers As-

sociation, the industry is short about 150,000 drivers, and she expects that number to rise to 300,000 by next year. But nearly 40 percent of new drivers quit within their first 90 days.

“We’ve got to make ourselves more attractive to recruit a new generation of truck drivers,” said Sparks.

Some success Some of these programs have had modest success. Conway Freight, based in Ann Arbor, Mich., has hired 46 fulltime wellness coaches who rotate among 110 facilities. The company has seen a 32 percent reduction in workdays lost to injury, said Bob Petrancosta, its vice president of safety.

Several years ago, Trucks Inc., a regional carrier in Jackson, Ga., shifted to an annual Department of Transportation physical rather than bi-annual.

It has since saved more than $250,000 in medical insurance costs. And a sleep apnea treatment program at Schneider National, based in Green Bay, Wis., has saved the company $651 per driver per month in health care costs since its in-

ception in 2003.

Still, it’s likely to be a long time before truckers are clamoring for steamed tofu and doing Sun Salutations at rest stops. “Unless the driver is scared to death for their life, unless they’ve had a medical event, they’re probably not going to change,” said Michael Metzger, 37, whose website, Healthy Trucker Lifestyle, chronicles his weight-loss experience (70 pounds and counting) and offers recipes and exercise tips for drivers.

“You’ve got to go to them, and you’ve got to speak their language,” said Perry of Rolling Strong. “They truly don’t want to be told what to do — they have to feel that they’re making this decision on their own.”

When the Lindora Clinic started working with truck drivers, recalled Cynthia Stamper Graff, the company’s executive chairwoman, she often received beleaguered phone calls. “The drivers said: ‘I don’t think we can do this. This is too difficult,’” she recalled. “The challenges of life on the road — no structure, not being at home where you have a refrigerator, no proper food choices. And they weren’t exercising.”

But slowly, she said, drivers embraced the company’s 10week program, which includes weekly phone consultations with a “nurse coach” and costs $360 a person, often paid wholly or in part by the employer.

So far, the 75 drivers who have completed the program have shown an average loss of 8.4 percent from their starting weight.

Johnson signed up with Lindora this summer after hitting 226 pounds. Beforehand, his only exercise was “walking into the truck stop restaurant, eating a bit and going back to

Tough on healthy habits Routines that keep other Americans healthy — hitting the gym, cooking at home, scheduling a doctor’s appointment — are nearly impossible, since drivers are rarely in one place for more than a day or two. The only exercise for many is pressing the gas pedal; most don’t load and unload cargo.

When they do leave their vehicles, it’s usually at truck stops and fast-food restaurants where nearly every option is greasy or fatty or served up in calorie-rich buffets — which some truckers say stands for “Big Ugly Fat Fellows Eating Together.”

“Everything’s fried, fried, fried — chicken, hot dogs, hamburgers, chili, burritos, corn dogs,” said Bill Johnson, 50, of Lubbock, Texas, a 25-year industry veteran.

Jill Garcia, 50, a driver from San Antonio who is obese and has sleep apnea and hypertension, said: “I swear, the truck stops have a candy-a-holic at their corporate offices. You can get two king-size bars for $3. I got four packs of M&M’s for a buck.”

Until recently, few in the transportation industry cared to tackle its health issues. “When you tried to talk to someone to connect the dots, they looked at you like you had three heads,” said Bob Perry, founder of Rolling Strong, which offers health and wellness programs for truckers.

Now transportation carriers, industry organizations and even truck stops are unrolling initiatives to help truckers slim down, shape up and improve their health. Employers are

the truck,” he said.

Today he weighs about 208 pounds, and his truck doubles as a makeshift gym. He does sit-ups inside the trailer and pull-ups below. He fills a cooler with 60 pounds of ice and lifts it over his head 10 to 15 times.

He power-walks around truck stops, some of which cover 4 or 5 acres, though he balks at the idea of using the area around his truck as a running track (32 laps around a rig is a mile, drivers are sometimes reminded).

“That’s just goofy,” he said.

Some drivers have even turned to private trainers.

Kevin Melton, 39, a trucker in Black Mountain, N.C., used to snack on Snickers bars and three or four Little Debbie pies a day while driving. His weight shot to 260, his joints and back ached, and his cholesterol was “through the roof.”

Two years ago, he began working with Chadwick Slagle, a trainer. Together they devised a nutrition plan: Melton now eats five meals a day, drinks water instead of soft drinks, and snacks on fruits and nuts.

He wakes up at 4:30 a.m. to exercise, running on a treadmill or around a parking lot. He now weighs about 200 pounds and hopes to get down to 190.

He has had to rethink some of his beliefs. “You hear Snickers are healthy because of the nuts, that they give you energy,” he said. “But when you read the label you realize they’re surrounded by caramel.”

For Garcia, who recently joined WeightWatchers, a new lifestyle was an easy decision.

She takes medication for high blood pressure, and she worries that the day will come when she won’t pass her physical.

“I’m being stupid if I don’t lose the weight,” she said, “because I’ll lose my job.”

W B New Spanish premier faces tense situation MADRID — Mariano Rajoy, who has become Spain’s prime minister after an eightyear wait, will have to act quickly as borrowing costs approach euro-era records and the country risks becoming the next victim of the region’s debt crisis.

“Just as markets weren’t particularly heartened by the arrival last week of Mr. Monti on Italy’s political scene, it is unlikely there’ll be a Rajoy relief rally,” said Nicholas Spiro, managing director of Spiro Sovereign Strategy in London. “Investors are primarily concerned with the credibility of plans to shore up euro-zone sovereign debt.”

“Time is running out and by the time a new government comes in, it will have run out,” said Fernando Eguidazu, president of the economic policy committee of the pro- entrepreneur lobby Circulo de Empresarios. “The new government will have to implement measures extremely quickly because the markets will not give us any grace period.”

Syrian army defectors Latest poll gives raise stakes for uprising Gingrich slight edge

By Zeina Karam and Elizabeth A. Kennedy The Associated Press

BEIRUT — Attacks by army defectors are transforming the Syrian uprising into an armed insurgency that threatens to spiral into civil war. The Free Syrian Army holds no territory, appears largely disorganized and is up against a fiercely loyal and cohesive military that will stop at nothing to protect the regime.

Still, without foreign military intervention or significant cracks in President Bashar Assad’s iron rule, the rebel group has emerged as the best hope for a growing number of protesters who have all but given up on peaceful resistance.

By Michael A. Memoli

Turkey condemns violence The Turkish prime minister sharply criticized Syrian President Bashar Assad after an attack on buses carrying Turkish pilgrims in central Syria on Monday left two people wounded and brought a new low between the two countries.

“You can remain in power with tanks and cannons only up to a certain point. The day will come when you’ll also leave,” Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan said at a conference in Istanbul. Responding to Assad’s repeated condemnation of other countries’ interference in Syrian affairs, Erdogan asked, “Why don’t you handle your own problem within yourself, without opening the way for outside interference?”

— The Washington Post

There are concerns the presence of an organized armed rebel group has given authorities a pretext to crack down even harder on dissent, pushing the country toward civil war.

The sectarian divide in Syria, where members of Assad’s minority Alawite sect rule over a Sunni Muslim majority and others, means an insurgency could escalate quickly.

3 Khmer Rouge leaders begin trial PHNOM PENH, Cambodia — Opening statements in the most significant stage of a U.N.-backed trial of Khmer Rouge leaders began here Monday with a horrifying and detailed account of the atrocities of a regime that a prosecutor said was responsible for the deaths of one-fourth of the population during its four-year rule from 1975 to 1979.

The three defendants, former leaders of the Khmer Rouge, listened as one of two prosecutors, Chea Leang, accused them of turning the country into “a massive slave camp producing an entire nation of prisoners living under a system of brutality that defies belief.”

The defendants include Nuon Chea, 85, the party’s chief ideologue, who the prosecution said received reports and gave specific directions as to “who would be arrested and who would be killed.”

Pakistani Taliban in accord talks ISLAMABAD — Leaders of the Pakistani Taliban have begun preliminary talks with government intermediaries aimed at reaching a peace agreement in the tribal region of South Waziristan, the site of a large-scale military operation against the homegrown insurgency in 2009.

Sources close to the Pakistani Taliban confirmed that talks were under way, though they stressed that the discussions were at an early stage.

The intermediaries include tribal elders in South Waziristan, the militant group’s stronghold.

Previous peace agreements between the government and Taliban militants in Pakistan’s volatile tribal areas along the Afghan border have ended in failure. Militants seized upon the cease-fires as an opportunity to regroup and gather new recruits.

Actor’s testimony goes beyond hacking LONDON — The actor Hugh Grant said Monday that British tabloid newspapers had broken into his home, accessed medical records and menaced his family as part of a “cowardly, bullying and shocking” press culture whose targets were not just celebrities, politicians and the police, but also people left vulnerable by misfortune.

Through two hours of testimony before an official inquiry into press practices, Grant raised new accusations that broadened the debate to include all of the mass-circulation British tabloids, not just those owned by News Corp., Rupert Murdoch’s media empire. Grant displayed a barely contained animosity toward press intrusion that contrasted starkly with the boyish congeniality of his film roles.

The inquiry was prompted by accusations that News of the World, the weekly tabloid that News Corp. shut down in July, had intercepted the voice mail messages of nearly 6,000 people, including Grant and some of his former girlfriends.

WASHINGTON — Another national poll puts Newt Gingrich at the top of the GOP pack in the 2012 presidential race, bolstered by the support of more conservative voters.

That being said, the new Gallup survey finds the nomination up for grabs, with no candidate breaking from the pack to establish a clear lead.

According to the poll, the former House speaker is the favorite of 22 percent of Republican and Republicanleaning registered voters, just ahead of former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney at 21 percent.

Herman Cain is still part of the conversation, placing third at 16 percent. Texans Ron Paul (9 percent) and Rick Perry (8 percent) round out the top five.

U.S., Britain tighten pressure on Iran McClatchy-Tribune News Service WASHINGTON — The United States and its allies on Monday increased financial pressure on Iran with targeted sanctions on that nation’s energy sector and central bank as further punishment for pursuing nuclear weap-

ons technology.

Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton jointly announced the actions in a late afternoon news conference, just weeks after a tough report critical of Iran’s nuclear ambitions from a United

Nations watchdog agency and allegations of an Iranian plot to kill Saudi Arabia’s ambassador to the United States.

“The message is clear: If Iran’s intransigence continues, it will face increased isolation and pressure,” Clinton said.

WASHINGTON — Reviving an idea they floated last year with an op-ed urging President Obama not to seek a second term, pollsters Patrick Caddell and Douglas Schoen are out today with a new op-ed drafting Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to be the Democrats’ 2012 nominee.

Obama should “abandon his candidacy for re-election in favor of a clear alternative,” Caddell and Schoen wrote in Monday’s Wall Street Journal, because “the kind of campaign required for the president’s political survival would make it almost impossible for him to govern — not only during the campaign, but throughout a second term.”

“Never before has there been such an obvious potential successor — one who has been a loyal and effective member of the president’s administration, who has the stature to take on the office,

Among more conservative voters, Gingrich leads Romney 23 percent to 20 percent, with Cain at 18 percent. Romney leads among moderates and liberals with 20 percent support, followed

by Gingrich and Cain at 12 percent each.

Gallup’s Jeffrey M. Jones wrote that typically by this point, Republicans have “anointed a dominant frontrunner” who ends up winning the party’s nomination.

But just weeks before the Iowa caucuses, there is no clear favorite.

“The current contest stands to be the most competitive and perhaps most unpredictable for the Republican nomination since 1972,” he wrote.

The survey of 946 registered voters was conducted Nov. 13-17, and has a margin of error of 4 percentage points.

and who is the only leader capable of uniting the country around a bipartisan economic and foreign policy,” they wrote of Clinton.

The two pollsters have worked for a number of highprofile Democrats — Caddell for George McGovern, Jimmy Carter and Joe Biden, and Schoen for President Bill Clinton and for Hillary Clinton in 2008. But they are also known for taking positions that are at odds with the Democratic Party.

Most recently, Schoen has worked with a group called Americans Elect to put a third candidate on the ballot in all 50 states.

The group plans to hold a nominating convention next summer to select a candidate to challenge Obama and the Republican nominee. Participants will draft candidates by putting their names to a webbased vote. Hillary Clinton and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg — another of Schoen’s former clients — are often mentioned as potential nominees.

Trustee says $1.2B may be missing

By Michael J. de la Merced and Ben Protess New York Times News Service

The amount of customer money missing from the collapsed brokerage firm MF Global may be more than $1.2 billion — double previous estimates — the trustee dismantling the firm’s brokerage unit said on Monday.

But the surprise finding, which caught regulators off guard, may be overstated,

according to a person briefed on the investigation. Some regulators say they believe that the trustee double-counted $220 million that had been transferred between units of MF Global, this person said.

Still, the much higher number highlights the disarray of MF Global’s records and raises significantly the hurdle for tens of thousands of customers seeking to get their money back. The trustee’s estimate

represents about a fifth of customer funds held by MF Global.

Regulators suspect that as investors and customers fled MF Global in the last week of October, the firm used some of the customer money for its own needs — violating Wall Street rules that customers’ money be kept separate from the firm’s funds. Much of that money may never return.

China yields ground in solar case, but plans retaliation

By Keith Bradsher New York Times News Service

Region’s jobless rates hold steady Deschutes and Jefferson counties saw decreases of 0.1 and 0.3 percentage points, respectively, in their unemployment rates in October compared with the previous month, and Crook County’s remained exactly the same, the Oregon Employment Department announced Monday.

All three Central Oregon counties, showed decreases of at least 1 percentage point last month in their seasonally adjusted unemployment rates compared with October 2010, according to the data.

Deschutes and Crook counties each shaved 2.1 percentage points off their rates, while the rate in Jefferson County dropped 1.2 percentage points.

Still, Crook County continued to have the highest rate in the state, at 15.8 percent, last month compared with the state average of 9.5 percent. Jefferson County has the fifthhighest rate, at 13.3 percent. Deschutes County had a 12.6 percent unemployment rate.

Outdoor gear deals to stickers by mail

By Jordan Novet The Bulletin

Seven years ago, Mark Silliman started the website spadout.com to figure out where to find the lowest prices on outdoor gear for sale on the Internet.

It’s a “price-comparison tool along the lines of Travelocity, but if you want skis,� he said.

His efforts were not unlike those of other entrepreneurs who have turned a personal quest for information into a business, which he started in his Chicago-area home. He moved it to Bend last year.

Spadout is what’s known as an affiliate marketer, a business that directs Web traf-

The basics What: Spadout Inc. and We Mail Stickers LLC Where: 233 S.W. Wilson Ave., Suite 1, Bend Employees: 16 Phone: 800-764-9941 Website: www.spadout.com and www.wemailstickers.com

fic to online stores to grow sales. In return, the affiliate marketer takes a percentage of the added revenues.

Last year, Silliman became convinced the state of Illinois was about to start demanding that retailers that partner with affiliate marketers in Illinois charge state sales tax. The change could have caused retailers to stop doing business with companies such as Spadout, to avoid making their customers pay more.

Several states have moved to impose the tax, including Illinois, but not Oregon.

That’s why Silliman, 29, decided last year to move his business to the Beaver State.

He chose Central Oregon because he knew of the outdoor retailer Altrec.com, whose employees spoke highly of the region, he said.

HONG KONG — Solar panel makers in China plan to shift some of their production to South Korea, Taiwan and the United States in hopes of defusing a trade case pending against them in Washington, according to industry executives.

But at the same time, the Chinese industry is considering retaliating by filing a trade case of its own with China’s Commerce Ministry.

The most likely target would be U.S. exports to China of polysilicon — a prime ingredient in solar panels — Chinese industry executives and officials said Monday. U.S. manufacturers last year exported about $873 million of polysilicon to China last year, nearly as much in dollar terms as the value of the solar panels that China shipped to the United States.

The Chinese moves come after the United States Commerce Department opened a trade case against China’s solar panel makers earlier this month, at the request of SolarWorld Industries America and six other U.S. solar companies.

The Commerce Department said it was considering punitive tariffs of 50 percent to 250 percent on Chinese solar panels, based on preliminary evidence that China is “dumping� solar panels in the United States below the cost of making and marketing them.

The department is also investigating whether the government of China is breaking international trade rules by subsidizing the export of solar panels — a finding, if it happened, that could result in additional tariffs.

Having hired trade lawyers to advise them on the Commerce Department case, solar panel manufacturers in China are increasingly gloomy about their chances of winning it, said Ocean Yuan, the president of Grape Solar, a big importer of Chinese solar panels that is based in Eugene.

BRUSSELS — Sharply divided leaders in Europe faced mounting signs Monday that the debt crisis was striking at the heart of the eurozone.

A major credit agency warning of a cut in the topgrade rating of France was one factor in a slide of more than 3 percent in many of Europe’s major indexes.

Moody’s Investors Service said that rising borrowing costs and a deteriorating economic outlook were putting pressure on France’s creditworthiness. Moody’s has maintained France’s triple-A rating so far, but it warned in October that it could put the rating on review.

“This crisis is hitting the core of the eurozone,� Olli Rehn, the European commissioner for economic and monetary affairs, said Monday.

A loss of France’s triple-A rating would have implications beyond Paris. It would signal that the crisis had spread to core eurozone members and that its effects could no longer be contained to peripheral nations like Greece, Portugal and Ireland.

Spain and Italy have also seen borrowing costs rise significantly. The yields on Spanish 10-year bonds rose 0.20 percentage point, to 6.513 percent, Monday, while the yield on Italian 10-year bonds rose 0.16 percentage point to 6.64 percent.

Former AIG chief sues New York Fed, Treasury over bailout

By Gretchen Morgenson New York Times News Service

Maurice Greenberg, the former chief executive of the American International Group, sued the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York on Monday, contending that their takeover of the insurer in the fall of 2008 was improper and that the Fed breached its duty to AIG shareholders when it unwound the company’s disastrous bets on mortgage securities.

The two lawsuits were filed on behalf of Starr International, Greenberg’s company and a large AIG shareholder. The suit against the Treasury was filed in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims in Washington, while the case against the New York Fed, a private corporation, was brought in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York. “What these lawsuits say is that in our country, not

even the government is above the law,� said David Boies, the lawyer at Boies, Schiller & Flexner, who represents Greenberg and Starr. “When the government takes action, although it has enormous power, there are legal limits to what they can do. One of those limits is that they cannot take private property even for a good purpose if they do it in violation of legal protection or don’t give just compensation.�

The lawsuit against the Treasury contends that the takeover of AIG discriminated against the company and its shareholders by charging onerous interest rates on loans extended by the government — 14.5 percent initially — and by taking an 80 percent interest in the company over the objections of shareholders.

T F David Girouard, who runs Google’s Apps business, right, meets with Venkat Panchapakesan, vice president of engineering, at Google offices in Mountain View, Calif.

“Businesses are inherently about people and relationships,” Girouard says, touting the business software’s collaborative features.

Mixed results as Google enters Microsoft’s turf

By Quentin Hardy New York Times News Service

MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif. — Michael O’Brien, vice president for information technology at Journal Communications, would prefer not to have the employees of the Milwaukee media company use Microsoft’s Office software any more.

He has installed Google Apps for Businesses, which provides word processing, spreadsheets, email and calendar software, for 400 people and said he planned to “convert” 900 more.

Because Google Apps performs many of the same functions as Office, but through a Web browser instead of local software, it is cheaper to own and operate than Microsoft’s desktop software, he said. An additional 1,400 people will be giving up their Microsoft email, documents and spreadsheets for Google in December.

O’Brien said he was also seeing a difference in behavior.

Many people can look at and work on the same content together, and access their memos and calendars from lots of different Web-connected devices.

So people are starting to work together by sharing documents that are stored in the cloud.

Even at this early stage, he said, “it started to change us.”

What’s happening at Journal Communications is one small win for Google and its cloud computing challenge to Microsoft’s lucrative Office division, maker of Microsoft Word and PowerPoint. But more than four years after Google Apps for

Businesses made its debut, the question remains how much of a dent Google is making in Microsoft’s business.

Gaining inroads Microsoft says Google’s efforts are hardly noticeable.

But Google executives say that more and bigger companies are signing up for the cloud service.

Possibly more important to Google is the way that Apps helps Google build social networks inside business. If successful, it would be a threat to Microsoft’s biggest division and would create another inroad in its struggle with Facebook to dominate users’ online lives.

“Businesses are inherently about people and relationships,” said David Girouard, who runs Google’s Apps business. Predictable things, like figuring out the supplies needed for manufacture, were “not the minimum to play,” he said.

“You need to have a social system, where a guy can introduce an idea about a new supplier, and he gets input from a lot of people quickly.”

Though Girouard said that 5,000 businesses a day signed up with Google Apps, few big companies have done so, most likely because some people do not entirely trust a cloud-based service, they like Microsoft or do not want to force employees to learn a new system. So Google does the next best thing and is focusing primarily on smaller businesses. Google maximizes the appeal of docu-

ments, calendars and spreadsheets at a cost of $50 a person a year. Many companies say that is 50 percent to 80 percent cheaper than Office. Google has the deep pockets to go slow since its search-related businesses bring in over $30 billion.

But Microsoft has deep pockets too. Its Office division revenue alone is $5.6 billion.

‘Asymmetric warfare’ Most corporate software is sold through big consulting firms, like IBM or Accenture, but Google has yet to use a partner. “They have approached other companies, but others think it’s not in their best interest,” said David Smith, an analyst with Gartner. He estimates Google gets just $150 million a year from Apps, and that it is not enough to cover costs. Google says it does make a profit.

Instead, it uses the business in “asymmetric warfare” with Microsoft. “Google spends $1 to make Microsoft spend $10 defending itself, because Microsoft went after Google on search,” Smith said.

Microsoft is dismissive of the situation.

“We sell a copy of Office 2010 every second — over 100 million so far,” said Tom Rizzo, a senior director in the Office division.

Microsoft started its own online documents business in June, at a price of $2 to $27 a month for each employee using the service. Rizzo, a 10-year Microsoft employee, would not

say how sales were, but said “I think this has the potential to be the fastest-growing product I’ve ever been a part of.”

A future in the cloud Bradley Horowitz, vice president in charge of products at Google+, the company’s new social network, says the longterm reality of cloud computing will be the obliteration of any line between business and consumer. “Work and home meld into each other,” he said.

“People at home already have access to huge supercomputers through the Google grid; they will not abide having old tools at work.”

Google Apps is centered on Gmail, used at no cost by hundreds of millions of people. The free version comes with ads and fewer features. Paid Apps have no ads, and Google says it guarantees a sustained quality of service and provides features like a way to publish corporate videos.

Capgemini, a technology services consultancy, uses Apps in a Guatemala-based call center because employees were used to the free version.

That cut training time. Virgin America uses the Gmail system for its 2,100 employees, but lets people choose whether to use Microsoft Office. “When you have people on one tool, it takes them awhile to convince them it’s worth it to move,” said Dean Cookson, Virgin’s chief information officer. “It comes down to finding the killer thing the new one does.”

Retailers enliven catalog offerings through apps

By Claire Cain Miller New York Times News Service

When you browse Anthropologie’s stores, you feel as if you’re wandering through an artsy home, where there are sure to be closets full of eclectic outfits, bedrooms with bohemian quilts and kitchen tables with mismatched dishes. But when you visit its ecommerce site, you get none of that feel; you’re just scrolling through an unimaginative grid of clothes worn by wooden mannequins.

Anthropologie wants to change that, and thinks the tablet is the key. For the holiday season, it has commissioned a new iPad app, designed to give shoppers a flavor of its own store, but also to offer a new way to shop, by allowing people to browse, mix and match items, and view multimedia features in ways not possible in stores, print catalogs or online.

The company is not alone.

Many retailers, from Saks Fifth Avenue to Wal-Mart, are putting out new iPad apps in time for the holiday season.

These apps do away with scrolling through pages of items online, and aim to make shopping more entertaining.

“There’s always been a little bit of a disappointment with

Mar Hershenson is the founder and chief executive of Revel Touch, the company that designed an iPad shopping app for Anthropologie.

the online experience, because the website needs to be practical and doesn’t engage the customers as well as the store experience and the catalog,” said Chris Love, director of portfolio management at Anthropologie. “We’re thinking about the iPad as a new channel that needs to be treated differently.”

Just 8 percent of online shoppers own tablet devices, and retailers, on average, have spent an anemic $14,000 on tablet apps, according to Forrester Research. But 60 per-

cent of tablet owners use them to shop and many, especially young people, say they prefer shopping on tablets to smartphones and even computers.

Like magazine publishers, retailers greeted the iPad by putting their print catalogs or websites on the device. But now some companies — including Revel Touch, which designed Anthropologie’s app — are reimagining catalogs for the iPad by taking advantage of its touch screen to flip through or zoom in on items and adding video, moving im-

ages and connections to social networks.

“They’re ahead of the game in terms of thinking about interactivity and the best way to deploy it in this environment,” Van Baker, a research vice president at Gartner covering e-commerce, said about Revel Touch. Other companies with businesses that create catalog apps for retailers include Google, TheFind and Catalog Spree.

On Revel’s Anthropologie app, people can create collages by scrolling through blouses, trousers, dresses, jewelry and purses, and buy the items they choose. Shoppers can see thumbnail views of all dresses or jewelry and touch them to magnify items and make purchases.

“It’s impossible to do this on a desktop with a mouse,” said Mar Hershenson, founder and chief executive of Revel Touch.

“The transition of product search has gone from purely a matrix to trying to be more inspirational.”

At Anthropologie, before the app’s introduction, 6 percent of sales came from shoppers visiting the website on iPads, triple the portion a year ago, Love said. He expects the new iPad app to account for 20 percent of sales in a year.

HP’s quarterly profit plunges 91 percent

By Brandon Bailey San Jose (Calif.) Mercury News

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Hewlett-Packard reported Monday that its revenue fell 3 percent and profit plunged 91 percent in the last quarter, as the company incurred substantial costs for closing down its webOS software business, although the tech giant still managed to beat Wall Street expectations as it struggled to get its business back on track.

HP also issued a forecast that suggests lower profits for 2012 compared with 2011, warning that it faces economic uncertainty and other challenges, while vowing to focus on restoring financial discipline in the coming year.

“We recognize the fact that we did not meet expectations in 2011,” said Chief Financial Officer Cathie Lesjak in an interview with the San Jose Mercury News, “and we’re out to prove that we are back to being an execution machine in 2012.”

In its first quarter since new CEO Meg Whitman took the reins, HP reported profit of just $200 million on total sales of $32.1 billion for the quarter ending Oct. 31, down from profit of $2.5 billion on revenue of $33.3 billion in the same period a year earlier.

Most of the profit decline was due to a $3.3 billion charge for a decision by Whitman’s predecessor to stop selling tablets and phones based on the webOS software that HP acquired when it bought Palm last year.

Earnings amounted to 12 cents a share, or $1.17 a share after excluding one-time charges, chiefly related to the webOS move. Wall Street had expected HP to report earnings of 53 cents a share, or $1.13 a share excluding one-time charges, on revenue of $32 billion, according to the average forecast of analysts surveyed

by Thomson Reuters.

HP disappointed Wall Street repeatedly in the past year, as former CEO Leo Apotheker lowered the company’s earnings forecasts and embarked on a series of controversial moves to increase HP’s focus on commercial computing hardware and software. Analysts were watching closely to see if Whitman could deliver on her promise to improve the giant tech company’s performance, after the HP board fired Apotheker and named Whitman to replace him in September.

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

MF Global

Spadout

One is that MF Global used the money to meet trading partners’ demands for extra cash, which could come back. The other is that it was used to cover trading losses, which would mean that the money cannot be recovered.

MF Global’s management, however, has maintained that some of the money is still sitting at clearinghouses and banks, according to a person close to the company. Though they do not dispute that some of the money is gone, these executives think that other funds were trapped after the firm rapidly unwound more than half of its trading book as it was collapsing.

No one at MF Global, including its former chief executive, Corzine, has been accused of wrongdoing.

Representatives for MF Global, the CME and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission declined to comment.

Continued from B1 Now the challenge has grown for investigators trying to determine exactly what happened in those last frantic days. Just days ago, investigators believed that they were closing in on what they thought was about $600 million in missing customer funds, according to people briefed on the matter. Regulators were relying on estimates from the firm and the CME Group, the exchange where MF Global did most of its business.

But after weeks of reconstructing MF Global’s books, forensic accountants from Deloitte and Ernst & Young working for the trustee concluded that the account shortfall was much greater than originally estimated.

Regulators have yet to verify the new numbers. While they are expected to raise their estimate above $600 million, it is unlikely to reach the trustee’s $1.2 billion figure.

Kent Jarrell, a spokesman for the trustee’s office, stood by that figure, but he noted that it was preliminary.

It is unclear what was behind MF Global’s original lower estimates. Some authorities chalk up the inaccuracies to the firm’s sloppy bookkeeping, and only slowly discovered additional holes in customer funds over the last three weeks.

Continued from B1 Since then, he encountered a new challenge. Sending Spadout-brand promotional stickers was taking up precious employee time. The company sends a sticker to any person who reviews a product on the website.

So Spadout Inc. spawned a whole new business, called We Mail Stickers LLC. Now the two businesses coexist in one office space in Bend.

And in a couple of months, Silliman said, he plans to start yet another business, for speeding up the process of filling out waiver forms at climbing walls and other venues.

ers as a promotional item, … and that’s one of the ways that we got fans going.

Basically, we have a monthly sticker giveaway, so there’s a December sticker and a January sticker and so on. (It) sounded like a great idea — what could possibly go wrong?

— until you have thousands of sticker requests. And now you don’t have the equipment to do it. So basically you’re sending it through a small printer like anyone else does and doing printing labels and all, and now you’ve got one of your core four people spending all day doing this work.

year. And so I quit the job that I had at the time. … I was broke, absolutely broke. There’s about 400 outdoor stores right now online that sell virtually identical equipment. … For my own personal gratification, because I could write code, I wrote a scraper, which is a way that the Web goes out, kind of like what

The trustee, James Giddens, held a four-hour conference call on Sunday evening with staff members in New York City and Chicago to discuss the latest shortfall numbers, according to Jarrell.

Ultimately, Giddens — under pressure from customers demanding the return of their money — decided to provide his fullest update yet on the progress of his investigation.

“He felt duty-bound to say” that more money was missing, Jarrell said.

In Monday’s announcement, the trustee said that his office controlled about $1.6 billion in customer funds, but most of that was already earmarked to be paid out.

The trustee said he was close to exhausting those funds.

But the person briefed on the investigation said that the trustee would soon be able to tap more than $1 billion in customer money that is trapped in Harris Bank.

Beyond the shortfall in customer accounts, Giddens’ office said it did not have access to money that was held in foreign subsidiaries of MF Global, which are under the control of trustees in those countries.

The search for MF Global’s missing money has consumed a growing number of authorities, including the FBI and federal prosecutors in New York and Chicago.

These inquiries have increasingly homed in on the theory that much of the customer money had left the firm, the people briefed on the matter said.

Regulators currently suspect that MF Global — at the time run by Jon Corzine, the former Democratic governor of New Jersey — improperly used customer money for its own purposes in the days before filing for Chapter 11 protection on Oct. 31.

Investigators are considering two possible situations.

Google does, to go watch the prices for me on these different pages. It was a very simple version of it, because I wanted to get the best deals, so that I could know where (they were) personally.

Some of my friends saw this, and they wanted access to it, and the rest is kind of history.

And now it literally uses 200 servers to keep Spadout online (and attracts) about 20,000 unique shoppers a day. …

Solar

Beijing said Monday.

The most likely target would be U.S. exports of polysilicon, the main material used in making conventional solar panels, said Wang Shijiang, a manager at the China Photovoltaic Industry Alliance based in Beijing.

The manufacture of polysilicon requires enormous amounts of energy — so much electricity that it typically takes the first year of operation of the panel to generate as much power as was required to make the polysilicon in it. The process requires superheating large volumes of material in electric-arc furnaces, including the melting of quartzite rock at more than 3,600 degrees Fahrenheit.

The United States is one of the world’s largest producers of polysilicon, in states like Tennessee and Washington, because it has access to a lot

Continued from B1 Yuan said Grape Solar was already negotiating with several Chinese manufacturers, whom he declined to identify, to perform final assembly of solar modules in Oregon. That would be the last step in new supply chains the Chinese industry intends to set up that would start in China then run through South Korea and Taiwan in hopes of avoiding any new tariffs.

But because final assembly of solar panels is relatively low-tech manual labor, any Chinese expansion into Oregon would be unlikely to add many valuable U.S. jobs.

Meanwhile, the solar panel industry in China is seeking legal advice on filing its own anti-dumping and anti-subsidy trade case against the United States, industry executives in

So we looked (nationally) for literally three months for a company that could figure this out. And there’s lots of mail-fulfillment companies.

But they’re good at one thing.

They’re good at taking a standard-size piece of paper, printing stuff on it and then folding it (into) three (sections) and plopping it into an envelope. …

But if you want to put a uniquely sized shape into each envelope, they’re awful at it. They don’t want anything to do with you. And so we kept looking and looking. We couldn’t find anyone. And that’s why we decided that there are tons of companies — we’re talking tens of thousands of businesses — that have this exact same problem. So that was the start of We Mail Stickers. And that’s why we decided that we were going to take it upon ourselves. you use Spadout Q: OfDo yourself to buy stuff? course, yeah. I will A: admit I don’t use it as much as I used to. To give you an idea of how many freebies we get, I have a room in the house with at least 90 jackets in it right now. That does reduce the need to buy. But one of the downsides of freebies is you don’t get what you want.

of inexpensive hydroelectric power. And most of that polysilicon is exported.

China’s own polysilicon industry is controversial because it relies heavily on electricity generated by coal-fired power plants, and because weak environmental controls at Chinese polysilicon factories have resulted in toxic spills that have fouled streams and rivers.

Three U.S. solar companies that together represented onesixth of U.S. manufacturing capacity in the sector went bankrupt in August — including Solyndra, whose failure despite receiving more than $500 million in federal loan guarantees has fueled Republican criticism of the Obama administration’s green-energy policy. Four other U.S. solar companies have laid off workers and cut output since spring of last year.

B5

You get whatever they send you. And that’s not supposed to be as complainy-pants as it sounds. Obviously, I still have to buy — you know, I got the newest Katanas (skis).

Are there any perks or Q: downsides to doing business in Oregon compared with Illinois?

It’s just different. It’s taken some learning curve.

They’re both fine, but people here, they obviously want (to make) lifestyle decisions.

One of the very interesting discussions that seems to come up in every single (prospective employee job) interview around here is, ‘Can I take snow days?’

Obviously, we don’t get that same request in Illinois. So it’s been slowly adapting — company packages now include snow days. … There are some logistical issues, but really it’s not too bad. Some of the infrastructure’s not here, like the really super-redundant Internet systems and stuff like that. …

We have to buy two ISPs just to guarantee 100 percent up time. … It takes about 10 times longer to get through a bank here.

They like to chit-chat. …

Meanwhile, formerly brisk demand for solar panels in Europe has slowed, as financially pressed governments have reduced subsidies. And so far, the domestic market for solar power in China remains tiny. As a result, many manufacturers in China have a capacity glut, to which they have responded by shipping more panels to the United States, driving prices down.

United States Energy Secretary Steven Chu noted in congressional testimony last week that solar panel prices had fallen 70 percent in the past 2½ years. Chu was testifying as part of a Republican inquiry into Solyndra.

As Wall Street downsizes, young workers lose out

By Kevin Roose New York Times News Service

Casey Kelbaugh / New York Times News Service

Dr. Dre arrives at a Beats headphones event in New York, where his headphones were on display for shoppers to demo earlier this month.

Beats

“Hats off to them, I have to say,” Reichert said.

Continued from B1 Reviews are mixed, but many people love them. The headphones are sleekly Apple-esque, which is no surprise, since they were created by a former designer at Apple. Beats also offer a celebrity vibe and a lot of boom-achick-a-boom bass.

So much bass, in fact, that some audio experts say that Beats distort the sound of the music.

“In terms of sound performance, they are among the worst you can buy,” says Tyll Hertsens, editor-in-chief of InnerFidelity.com, a site for audiophiles. “They are absolutely, extraordinarily bad.”

Time was, manufacturers marketed high-priced audio equipment by emphasizing technical merits like frequency response, optimum impedance, ambient noise attenuation and so on. The audience was mostly a small cadre of audiophiles tuned to the finer points of sound quality.

But, three years ago, Beats

by Dr. Dre set out to change all that by appealing to more primal desires: good looks, celebrity and bone-rattling bass. Annual sales are approaching $500 million, and Beats have transformed headphones into a fashion accessory.

Trendsetter This unlikely success has touched off a scramble in the industry. The rappers Ludacris and 50 Cent have backed their own headphone brands.

Lawsuits are flying. Beats and its partner, Monster Cable, have sued some competitors, alleging patent infringement. The maker of Soul by Ludacris headphones, in turn, has sued Beats and Monster, contending that they are “attempting to use litigation threats to stifle legitimate competition.”

However the lawsuits play out, the entire industry is riding a wave. Sales of headphones in the U.S. nearly doubled in the year that ended in August, to $2 billion, according to the NPD Group’s Retail Tracking Service.

Stefanie Reichert, vice president of strategic marketing for Sennheiser USA, said Beats was the first to market headphones as a lifestyle choice, rather than as a piece of audio equipment.

An odd pair Jimmy Iovine, chairman of Interscope Geffen A&M Records, has had a long, profitable relationship with Young and teamed up with him on Beats.

The two make an odd pair. With a smooth baritone, Young spun tales about gangs, sex and crack in South Central Los Angeles into multimillion-selling rap albums. In person, Young, a burly 46-year-old, says little and chooses his words carefully.

Iovine, 58, made his name as a record producer for the likes of John Lennon and Bruce Springsteen. He is also credited with helping to discover Lady Gaga and Eminem, whose demo tape he gave to Young. A slight, wiry and hyperactive Brooklyn native in blue-tinted glasses and a baseball cap, Iovine talks so much more than Young that he jokes, “I’m his Charlie McCarthy, I really am.”

Beats was a result of a chance meeting on a California beach several years ago, Iovine said. Young lamented that his lawyer wanted to peddle Dr. Dre-branded sneakers. Iovine responded: Forget sneakers, sell speakers (though he used a different F-word).

‘Let’s make it look cool’ His interest in getting into the headphone business was prompted by what he calls a steady decline in the quality of audio equipment and of recordings, as they have been compressed into digital files. That process allows more songs to be loaded onto a mobile device, but doing so eliminates some of the music’s complexity.

At that time, Iovine said headphones had become a commodity, and “everything that came out kept making the sound worse, and worse and worse.”

He continued: “You wouldn’t watch ‘Avatar’ on a small screen with a blurry picture, and yet people were consuming music like that.

So we said: ‘You know, everything else out there looks like medical equipment right now.

Let’s make it look cool and have a good vibe about it. But yet make it powerful.’”

The duo signed a deal with

Monster Cable, which makes cables for audio and video components, and it spent several years perfecting a design, Iovine said. The first pair of Beats was released in fall 2008, about the time the slowing economy went into a tailspin. “Everyone told us it was impossible,” Iovine said.

“We just went for it.”

Redefining audio He dismissed those who criticize the sound quality of Beats. Competitors use fancy equipment to determine how headphones should sound, he said, whereas he and Young simply know how they should sound.

“The way we hear music is almost the opposite of the way these sound companies hear music,” he said.

Many rave about the sound.

Consumer Reports gave Beats’ Studio headphones among its highest rankings in a recent review.

Even the best headphones can’t improve a lousy recording.

Iovine acknowledged the challenge but said music still sounded better on Beats than on most other headphones.

He said his goals extended well beyond headphones, to improving the quality of audio in cars, as well as on personal computers and other consumer electronics, in much the same way that high definition improved the visual quality of television.

Cellphones will be crucial, since they are the primary music player for a growing number of people. In August, Beats announced that the HTC Corp., a mobile device maker based in Taiwan, had invested $300 million in the company, giving it a majority stake. Beats technology has already been incorporated into some HTC smartphones.

“We can’t be late to the phone like we were online,” Iovine says. “Remember, Napster was out of business for three years before our music became available legally on iTunes. That’s a disaster.”

He envisions offering music by subscription on cellphones — much as cable offers TV by subscription — with Beats providing the audio. The music industry, he said, has to make the transition to cellphones, and do it with style.

“It’s not sexy,” he said. “And it’s got to be sexy.”

IT’S ALL ABOUT OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS AT SMOLICH MOTORS. RIGHT NOW

NEW YORK — Steve Ferdman celebrated getting a job offer this fall from Credit Suisse in the usual Wall Street fashion. Over expensive oysters and dark rum cocktails at a trendy Manhattan restaurant with his parents, he toasted landing the full-time position after working six months as a consultant without benefits.

A week later, Ferdman, 28, sat alone at the same place and ordered a gin and tonic to lament getting laid off by the bank, for the second time since 2008. When he told the bartender about his misfortune, his next round was on the house.

“I did everything right. I came into work every day, I put in long hours, and I still got punched in the face,” Ferdman said. “People shouldn’t want to work in this industry anymore.”

Being young on Wall Street once meant having it all: style, smarts, and too much money to spend wisely. Now, 20-somethings in the finance industry are losing both cash and cachet.

Three years after the global financial crisis nearly brought Wall Street firms to the brink, the nation’s largest banks are again struggling. As profits wane, layoffs have claimed thousands of jobs and those still employed have seen their compensation shrink. These problems are set against the morale-crushing backdrop of the Occupy Wall Street movement, which has made a villain of a once-lionized industry.

Much of the burden of Wall Street’s latest retrenchment has fallen on young financiers.

The number of investment bank and brokerage employees between ages 20 and 34 fell 25 percent from the third quarter of 2008 to the same pe-

Ruth Fremson / New York Times News Service

Steve Ferdman, 28, has been laid off twice by Credit Suisse.

“I did everything right. … and I still got punched in the face,” Ferdman said.

riod of 2011, a loss of 110,000 jobs from layoffs, attrition and voluntary departures.

By comparison, industry headcount dropped 17 percent in the same period, according to an analysis by The New York Times of data for New York City provided by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. The number of staffers older than 55 decreased only 11 percent. Young financiers have experienced setbacks in the past. Bankers and traders who rushed wide-eyed to Wall Street in the halcyon days of the 1980s were waylaid by the stock market crash of Oct. 19, 1987, known as Black Monday. Then they got pummeled in 2000 by the dot-com collapse and the recession that followed.

But unlike previous downturns, experts say that today’s doldrums are here to stay.

“A lot of the positions that are being cut right now aren’t coming back,” said Leslie Hild, a vice president with the recruiting firm Right Management. “It’s an emotional roller coaster for almost everyone.”

Any sympathy for Wall Street’s aspiring rainmakers

— its huddled masses yearning to get rich — should be tempered by the fact that financial sector recessions often deal a soft blow. Laid-off financial workers typically receive large severance packages, which include the use of outplacement services. During their job hunt, many can draw on substantial savings built off past bonuses, on top of collecting unemployment.

But for those laid-off Wall Street workers whose golden tickets have vanished, the disillusionment is real.

Sam Meek, 27, who was laid off in September when his Connecticut hedge fund decided to downsize, used to spend $500 on charity dinners and lavish golf outings.

Now, it’s home-cooked meals and beer on the sofa. Recently, Meek and his roommate, another unemployed banker who spoke on the condition of anonymity because he did not want to jeopardize his job search, sat together in the kitchen filing for unemployment and drinking a bottle of champagne.

“I’m scraping by right now,” he said.

Drive replenishes food bank NeighborImpact’s food bank was replenished last week when the fourth annual Stuff the Bus food drive delivered 9,000 pounds of nonperishable food to its Redmond warehouse.

A joint campaign — sponsored by PremierWest Bank, Newport Avenue Market and Mt. Bachelor — the two-week project collected food at area locations and loaded it into three buses.

The donations will be distributed to Central Oregon residents during the winter via 40 partner agencies.

DMV closed for holiday, Friday The Oregon Driver and Motor Vehicle Services Division will be closed Thursday and Friday.

While all state offices will be closed Thursday for the Thanksgiving holiday, the Friday closure is the second of 10 statewide mandatory furlough days required

by Oregon’s 2011-13 budget.

The next furlough day is scheduled for March 23, 2012.

Steens Mountain sections close Due to winter weather conditions, the upper section of the Steens Mountain Loop Road has been closed for the season.

The gates just below Jackman Park Campground and Big Indian Overlook were closed, and the areas will not open until spring.

Despite the closure, all Steens Mountain area campgrounds — except Jackman Park — remain open.

Work almost done on trail loop

Photos by Ryan Brennecke

After spending a good portion of my afternoon waiting for the sun to get blocked by a cloud, I gave up and looked for a smaller detail I could shoot. Only a few feet from where I was photographing, I found this small waterfall with a yellow flower surrounded by lush green moss.

Our neighborhood waterfall

REDMOND — A 3-mile trail loop for hikers and bikers is nearing completion in the rocky lands just east of the High Desert Sports Complex outside Redmond. The loop is just the first stretch of trail in what will become up to 25 miles worth of foot, bike and horse paths.

Officially, it’s called the Northeast Redmond Trail Complex but those involved in the project have started calling it the “Radlands.”

“I don’t know where it came from, but the name just kind of stuck,” said Katie Hammer, executive director of Redmond Area Park and Recreation District.

The district oversees the 1,200 acres of land and the development taking place on it. Deschutes County officially owns the area but offered a license agreement to the district earlier this year.

• Just outside Bend, Tumalo Falls offers endless photographic opportunities

97 Hemlock Ave.

By Ryan Brennecke The Bulletin

Since I moved to Central Oregon, I have considered myself fortunate to live where it is beautiful and where there is a variety of fun things to photograph.

Tumalo Falls is one of the places I find myself visiting fairly often with family or friends.

The first time I attempted shooting photos of a waterfall, it was more than a decade ago, using my film SLR camera during a family trip through the Pacific Northwest.

During that trip, I learned the importance of bracketing my photos — taking a series of shots at different exposures. By bracketing my shots I was able to capture a variety of images with changes in the amount the water blurred and changes in the depth of field and exposure — and I could take them from exactly the same location. Bracketing allowed me to shoot several different frames with completely different looks to them, photos I could later edit, print and hang on my wall.

When you arrive at the waterfall, resist setting up your tripod at the first vantage-point you find. Instead, take your time, walk around the area and look through the viewfinder to explore different angles and compositions.

Oftentimes, shooting at an angle instead of directly in front of the waterfall gives the photograph more depth and scale.

If the lighting is not cooperating, try taking detailed photos of a small area instead of trying to capture the entire waterfall.

The best lighting condition in which to shoot Tumalo — in my opinion — is diffused lighting on an overcast day, because it creates even lighting that helps bring out details in the shadows and allows for longer shutter speeds that create the blurred effect.

I know the look of silky-smooth water flowing down from a cliff is the most common way to photograph a waterfall, but “freezing” the splashes of a raging waterfall can bring a whole new look to your shots. So don’t forget to try taking some shots with faster shutter speeds.

COCC Fall colors were beginning to show during my most recent visit to Tumalo Falls. I almost walked right past this photo opportunity because I was in such a hurry to photograph the waterfall shortly after sunset.

Former student suing for $1 million

By Patrick Cliff The Bulletin

This photo was taken during my first visit to Tumalo Falls during the winter. I really liked how dramatically the scene was changed by the fresh snow.

By walking up Tumalo Creek toward the falls, I was able to find a colorful section of bank and rocks to place the falls in the context of its surroundings.

Until my most recent visit to Tumalo Falls a few weeks ago, I had had tunnel vision and focused only on the waterfall.

Because of that, I had missed several opportunities to capture great photos of

the changing fall colors along the creek.

It was a great reminder for me not to become so fixated on one photo idea or scene and to allow myself to explore with an open mind.

When Randolph Solo was enrolled at Central Oregon Community College and living in the campus dorm, he found a bullet on the floor outside his room, according to a milliondollar suit the former student filed against the school.

COCC kicked Solo out of its residence — Juniper Hall — shortly after the bullet incident and he no longer attends the college. In a lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in Eugene, Solo alleges that people connected to COCC conspired to deprive him of his civil rights and deny him due process.

In October, COCC asked the court to either dismiss or make more definite Solo’s lawsuit, which also includes residence hall director Paul Amar and resident assistant Megan Bernard. COCC maintains it is immune from such a lawsuit and — in its motion — describes Solo’s claims as “so vague and ambiguous that defendants cannot reasonably prepare a response.”

Continued from C1 The agreement allows the development of trails in the area with the understanding that one day the county may want the land back.

“We can develop it as a trail system up to that point they want to turn it into something else,” Hammer said.

So when does “that point” take place?

“Like 30 years or more out,” Hammer said.

It’s a good thing the district has a few decades to develop and use the land as organizers believe it will take a couple of years to transform the area into the envisioned trail system.

A bridle path is planned along the canal on the east end of town. Shared spaces and dog areas are also planned.

Trails to be accessible most of the year The low elevation the system should allow usage well into the winter months. And the proximity to Redmond allows hikers to take a quick drive out to the area.

“We’re focusing mostly on hiking and mountain biking,” Dodson said. “But eventually we want a multi-use system for all abilities. Right now, we’re looking at 25 miles of trails. But there’s tons of land out there, so we’ll see.”

Dodson said anyone with an interest in getting involved can contact COTA at www .cotamtb.com.

Community-built trails “One of our big things we want is to get the people in Redmond excited about building the trails themselves,” said Chris Dodson, a board member of the Central Oregon Trails Alliance. “We want to see people involved creating what they want.”

The park and recreation district is working with COTA to develop the area.

Both groups say they have the same vision: more trails in Redmond.

Currently planned are multiple hiking and biking trails, meandering some 20 miles through the area.

Bellotti’s pension tops all others SALEM — Newly released documents from the Oregon Public Employees Retirement System show former University of Oregon football coach Mike Bellotti is the state’s top public pension beneficiary.

Bellotti collects nearly a half million dollars annually in pension checks — more than $41,000 per month.

The names of more than 100,000 retired public employees in Oregon and how much they receive in pensions are being made public as part of a court settlement between the state retirement system and two newspapers.

The Oregonian and The Salem Statesman Journal demanded the records last year to shine a light on state spending.

The Statesman Journal said PERS pays out $231 million a month to all beneficiaries combined.

Bellotti told The Oregonian he simply accepted the package he was offered when he signed on at the university in 1989.

OREGON’S CAPITOL GETS FESTIVE

PORTLAND — Portland Police Chief Mike Reese says he’s decided against a run for mayor.

In a statement Monday, Reese said he feels he can best serve the community and the Police Bureau by remaining as chief of police.

He also said he appreciates the support and encouragement he’s received recently as he mulled a possible race for mayor.

Mayor Sam Adams announced in late July that he wouldn’t seek re-election in 2012.

SOU campus wary after man found slain

Mother of missing man fears he’s dead PORTLAND — The mother of a Portland man who went missing last summer near Bagby Hot Springs fears the worst.

The mother, Carol Degagne, told The Oregonian she no longer believes Steven Moline is alive and wants to know what happened.

He was with four friends last June, driving toward the springs in the Mount Hood National Forest when they decided to turn around because they were low on gas.

They say Moline decided to get out and walk.

They called 911 and said he had wandered off in the forest.

Degagne says her 30-yearold son had epilepsy and other illnesses and wouldn’t have tried to walk that far.

The Clackamas County sheriff’s office says investigators have no reason to believe Moline is dead. It remains a missing person case.

Portland police chief won’t run for mayor

ASHLAND — Southern Oregon University police in Ashland have warned students to travel in pairs if they use a bike path where a 23year-old was found slain on Saturday.

Authorities believe David Grubbs was killed on the Central Ashland Bike Path 30 minutes before his body was found with wounds to the head and neck, the Medford Mail Tribune reports.

Police have declined to say what weapon they believe was used in the attack, except to say it was large and had a sharp edge.

The police have not identified a suspect or person of interest.

The university recommends students inform others before they use the bike path, carry a flashlight, whistle and carry a cell phone if traveling at night.

High court refusing to block murderer’s execution

A crew of inmates and staff from Santiam Correctional Institution in Salem hoist the grand fir in the Oregon State Capitol lobby. A tree-lighting ceremony is scheduled for Nov. 29.

SALEM — The Oregon Supreme Court said Monday it will not block next month’s execution of twice-convicted murderer Gary Haugen, spurning an attempt by death penalty opponents to halt the state’s first execution in 14 years.

The court’s decision is the last legal “The record hurdle in Haugen’s before us, months-long quest to waive his remain- however, ing appeals. A Mari- demonstrates on County judge has no legal error in ordered that Haugen be executed by lethal Judge (Joseph) Guimond’s injection on Dec. 6.

Haugen and Jason Van Brumwell were sentenced to death in 2007 for the killing four years earlier of David Polin, who was found with 84 stab wounds and a crushed skull in a prison band room.

Marion County Circuit Court Judge Joseph Guimond found him competent to fire his lawyers and ordered that the inmate be executed in August, but the execution was delayed.

“We share the dissenters’ premise that every death penalty case raises the most profound issues of morality and social justice,” Justice Thomas Balmer wrote for the majority.

“The record before us, however, demonstrates no legal error in Judge Guimond’s conduct of the proceedings to determine Haugen’s competence, nor any failure on his part to comply with the terms of our writ.”

BUDGET CUTS

400 state employees missed furlough days The Associated Press SALEM — About 400 state employees failed to take enough furlough days in the last budget period, according to Oregon Department of Administrative Services estimates.

The workers will not be penalized, but they will be warned of disciplinary action if they miss their next round of furlough requirements, legislative coordinator Marjorie Taylor said.

Taylor couldn’t provide an estimate for how much in savings was lost from the lack of compliance with the furlough requirement, as the department has no employee-specific data in that regard.

A union spokesman told the Salem Statesman Journal that 400 employees — a little more than 1 percent

“Moving into the 2011-13 biennium, agencies have more experience with furlough compliance, payroll system codes and associated issues. Individual agencies will continue to monitor their employee compliance and work to resolve discrepancies.”

— Marjorie Taylor, legislative coordinator

of the workforce — is probably a reasonable number considering the complexity of scheduling the furloughs.

Each day saves state $2M “We appreciate that DAS is not bringing the hammer down and is being reasonable in those situations,” said Don Loving of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees.

Another 10 furlough days are scheduled this budget pe-

Weekly Arts & Entertainment Every Friday In

riod. The next is Friday, the day after Thanksgiving. Each furlough day is estimated to save the state $2 million.

Agencies also have reported some mistakes made in the other direction, where workers took more furlough days than they should have, Taylor said. That further complicates efforts to estimate savings.

Employees who did not meet their furlough requirements will receive a “letter of expectation” for the com-

ing biennium, during which workers again must take off 10 to 14 unpaid days.

Taylor cited several reasons why employees may have missed furlough days. Some might have gotten a raise and not realized they entered an income bracket that required more unpaid days, or transferred between agencies.

“Moving into the 2011-13 biennium, agencies have more experience with furlough compliance, payroll system codes and associated issues,” Taylor wrote in an email. “Individual agencies will continue to monitor their employee compliance and work to resolve discrepancies.”

Don’t say ‘no’ to flavored milk in schools – yet

C

hocolate milk seems to have developed a split personality.

On the one hand, critics want it eliminated from

school lunches because of its high sugar content.

On the other, endurance athletes are now drinking it to boost endurance, and some dietitians say it belongs in school lunches because its nutritional value far outweighs the sugar.

Although the Bend-La Pine School district has received only a handful of comments, a local blog — www.bendmomsformoms.com — has seen an active debate recently, and the subject is coming up in school districts across the nation.

Those who want flavored milk removed from the schools say it has too much sugar, can distort kids’ expectations about food and drink, and makes school lunches less healthy.

Defenders say it is full of important nutrients and many kids won’t drink milk without the flavoring.

The amount of sugar — 25 grams per serving — is only one gram higher than the sugar in apple juice.

Districts from Los Angeles to Minneapolis to Washington, D.C., have cut or reduced chocolate milk in school programs — according to a report from National Public Radio — seeing it as a part of the fight against the nation’s childhood obesity epidemic.

Meanwhile, consumption of chocolate milk by elite athletes is becoming mainstream, following

With so much conflicting science and difference of opinion, eliminating flavored milk from school lunches doesn’t meet the test. reports that its protein speeds muscle recovery. And researchers at Penn State are studying compounds in cocoa that may help break down fat, according to the NPR story.

In Virginia, Fairfax County Schools got lots of parent complaints after eliminating chocolate milk, NPR reported, so it convinced its suppliers to cut sweeteners to produce a product that has only 30 calories more than regular 1 percent milk.

When a food fits clearly in the junk food category — such as potato chips and non-diet soda — banning it from schools is justified. But with so much conflicting science and difference of opinion, eliminating flavored milk from school lunches doesn’t meet the test.

Sisters must speak up for local roundabout

W

ednesday is the last day for Sisters residents to submit a survey that could influence the chances of a roundabout being built on the west end of town.

The roundabout is planned for the intersection of state Highway 126/U.S. Highway 20 and West Barclay Drive. It’s part of Sisters’ longterm traffic plan for an alternate route through town. The plan is at risk because the Oregon Department of Transportation decided in the spring to put a moratorium on roundabouts on state highways while it studies opposition from the freight industry.

Sisters City Manager Eileen Stein said ODOT has indicated a willingness to listen to the opinions of residents, and she has set out to collect as much reaction as possible in advance of a meeting with ODOT next week.

A recent public meeting brought in about 20 responses, Stein said, with about 18 expressing support for the roundabout.

Although a traffic signal was originally planned for the intersection, Stein said, plans changed after a study of the advantages

of roundabouts.

Rough cost estimates, which do not include right-of-way acquisition, are $2 million for a small roundabout, $2.6 million for a large roundabout, and $2.5 million for a signal.

Stein said this debate about the needs of the state highway system versus local preferences has been popping up around the state. She hopes the Sisters plan can be a pilot project with a goal to build a roundabout that meets the needs of the freight industry as well as the community.

To move in that direction, Sisters needs to be able to demonstrate significant local support, hence the survey effort.

At first glance, a roundabout seems suitable in a place where the speed limit is already reduced at the edge of town, but ODOT is right to pause and consider concerns of truckers.

If Sisters residents want a chance to advance their project, though, they need to speak up right now through the use of the city’s survey.

It can be found on the City of Sisters website, www.ci.sisters.or.us/.

My Nickel’s Worth Right to fire Paterno I don’t know whether Richard Henry has any kids. If he’d had a 10year-old boy who was raped in the shower by Jerry Sandusky after Joe Paterno had the opportunity — but failed — to stop his child-abusing buddy, I don’t think Henry would be defending Paterno now.

Paterno and his “superiors� did essentially nothing to stop Sandusky!

How many additional kids did they therefore subject to the most heinous crimes most of us can imagine?

What Henry is essentially saying is that as long as you’re successful in one field, you have absolutely no other responsibilities to the rest of society.

Michael Christopher Bend

Paterno was wrong Two Nov. 15 letters, “Discerning cartoon� and “Wrong on Paterno,� are emblematic of the problem: An institution — Penn State — and a person — Joe Paterno — are considered more important than the problem — child abuse. The idea that 99.9 percent of an organization are good people doesn’t warrant overlooking the 0.1 percent committing horrific acts.

With that logic, the Catholic church and Boy Scouts would still be covering up and abusing young boys.

Yes, Paterno did report the incident when he was informed. However, that was not good enough considering the administrators’ decisions for a cover up and allowing Sandusky to “retire.� Didn’t they learn anything from the church and Scouts? Paterno knew that Sandusky retired and saw him still using the facilities, yet Paterno did nothing! Where was his outrage?

Thinking that 61 years of accomplishments gives Paterno a free pass to neglect a moral obligation to do what’s right to the fullest ex-

tent possible is faulty logic and puts the person above the well-being of young boys.

Some may consider the editorial board pious, but it is not gutless and has not failed in its responsibilities.

Read the grand jury report, then question publishing the cartoon and thinking Paterno met his obligation.

Sport writer Rick Reilly said it very well (paraphrasing): The moment of silence before the Penn State-Nebraska game is not what is needed.

We have been silent too long. The vow of silence must end.

Dennis Peters Bend

Protecting football How can you defend a man who didn’t want to know that his assistant coach was seen molesting a young boy — who hoped if he swept it under the carpet and ignored it, it would all go away? All to “protect� a football program. So who was protecting these young boys?

No wonder this country is so sick.

When you have the mentality that football is the most important thing in the world, that it is all in the name of football that young boys are molested and no one did anything!

They should ban it from schools if that is what it teaches.

Support the pipeline On Friday, Nov. 11, on Page A3, there was a story about the pipeline between Canada and the U.S. being delayed by President Barack Obama.

This is one of the worst decisions that has been made. Remember the promise of new jobs? Well this will kill thousands of jobs and also destroy any chance of getting oil from a close neighbor — oil that will not be cut off by an embargo or shipping problems. This is a $7 billion

project. Also this pipeline would tie into some American fields making it possible to ship oil cheaper.

The pipeline was to come from Canada’s sand oil and go to the Gulf Coast. What was not included was the fact that Canada’s finance minister has remarked that they will probably not accept a delay, but will pursue contracts with China and Japan.

This can be verified on the Internet.

The delay was provoked by environmentalists. The unions are for it. So please write or call Washington, and put on pressure to get this changed.

Oppose sno-park plan The Kapka Butte Sno-park may not be dead even though the U.S. Forest Service received about 1,000 inputs to not build and about 60 inputs for the sno-park.

New spin is for a second snopark, across the road from the proposed Kapka sno-park. Given the overwhelming lack of support for the first sno-park, why does anyone think a second sno-park, across the road, makes the world any better!

Whatever your opinion on this sno-park issue, please remember — especially when you are writing your April 15 check to the IRS — now is not the time for spending money unless it is universally usable by everyone year round. Also, no one has yet explained how the longterm upkeep of any new sno-parks will be funded without impacting the existing parks.

The Forest Service seems to be able to locate sources of funding; maybe it should look at directing its efforts to locate funding that can be applied to the forest and produce new revenue sources that would flow into the local area economy.

Property taxes a poor, outdated source of revenue

By Howard Sp ector n the Tax Foundation of America’s latest survey, the property tax stands out as the tax people hate more than any other. It wins hands down as the most unfair of all taxes.

Historian John Steele Gordon believes it’s a relic of the colonial past and should be abolished. “Send it to the Smithsonian� he recommends, “and display it with other relics, like chamber pots and clay pipes.�

Back then, the property tax was more fair and progressive than today.

Back then, most property produced income. Today, property is a terrible measure of a family’s ability to pay taxes. Most property today is income-absorbing. At one time, families at least used to make money when they sold their homes.

I

Not today. Ask any homeowner.

Houses don’t produce income; they suck it dry.

Bill Gates’ house, opulent as it is, represents a tiny fraction of his wealth. For most families, the home is their largest single asset.

Property taxes flunk every test of fairness. They bear no relation to the taxpayer’s ability to pay. They are arbitrary, varying with the ability and fairness of the individual assessors.

Let’s consider in our county, for starters, all land that is not taxed — U.S. Forest Service land, churches, government buildings, schools and Central Oregon Community College.

It’s estimated that around 85 percent of land in Deschutes County is exempt.

Then there’s the matter of funding.

The largest items on our tax state-

IN MY VIEW ment are education bond measures.

While it’s a worthy idea for all of us to support our schools and colleges, on our cul-de-sac of eight homes — none of which include school-age children — we are collectively sustaining our schools to the tune of around $70,000 annually.

Typically, these bond measures pass with enthusiastic support from non-property owners. The theory is that monthly rents will subsequently take property tax increases into account, but that really doesn’t apply in today’s economy.

Meanwhile, according to the monthly Bratton Report, median home prices in Bend have fallen nearly 50 percent from their highs

about four years ago — from nearly $400,000 to around $200,000. Land prices and home prices in other Deschutes County communities have fallen further. In addition, roughly half of all current sales in Bend are “distressed� — foreclosures or short sales. Yet property taxes continue to rise, around 3 percent — more or less — each year.

Property taxes on our home have risen around 13 percent since 2007, while the value of our home has decreased 40 percent. In fact, our property is valued about the same as it was nine years ago, but our property taxes today are around 24 percent higher.

When voters passed Proposition 50 in 1997, the concept of small steady annual property tax increases based on an apparently low initial assessed

value appeared somewhat equitable, and a logical method of limiting annual tax increases. But the Great Recession and the resultant decline in property values has effectively torpedoed that concept.

With so many homeowners struggling to scrape together their monthly mortgage payments, the annual county property tax statement — due the month before Christmas — feels like another nail in the coffin.

Today’s housing downturn is likely to continue in the foreseeable future.

Annual increased property taxes, on top of steadily depressed property values, is the crowning — often lethal — blow to beleaguered homeowners.

There has got to be a better way to fund local government. Can we launch another ballot initiative? — Howard Spector lives in Bend.

Patricia Evans McCallen Nov. 17, 1934 - Nov. 16, 2011 Patricia Evans McCallen, 76, of McMinnville, passed away Wednesday, November 16, 2011.

A graveside service will be held on Tuesday, November 22, 2011, at 2:00 p.m., at Juniper Haven Cemetery. Officated by Pastor Dan Parks of Prineville Christian Church.

She was born November 17, 1934, in Baker, Oregon, to Maxine B. (Waymire) and Silas P. Taylor. Pat graduated from Crook County High School in 1952, in Prineville, Oregon, where she married Norman Harry Evans on August 27, 1956. They had four daughters, Beth, Norma, Susie, and Penny, and were happily married for 18 years before Norm was killed in a car accident.

After being employed for several years as a legal secretary, Pat became the first female Justice of the Peace for Crook County when she was appointed by the governor in 1972.

She was sworn in by her father, who was the current Justice of the Peace.

After her appointment, she ran for re-election and won.

In 1975, she married Edward McCallen. Together they operated a construction company in Alaska for many years before returning to Oregon, where they later divorced. She moved to McMinnville in November 1999.

Pat was a smart, funny, and sharp lady who enjoyed rowdy family games & pinochle, keeping up-to-date on worldwide

news via the internet, and gritty not-for-the-faint-ofheart crime dramas. During Pat’s time in McMinnville, she loved playing dominos and spending time with her many “Ladybug� friends. She was a unique, loving mother and grandmother, and she will be greatly missed by her friends and family.

Pat is survived by her brother and sister-in-law, Jim and Shirley Taylor of Bend, Oregon; her four daughters, Beth Conrad (Dr. Wayne Conrad) of Edgewood, Washington; Norma Evans (Dave Andrich) of Bend, Oregon; Susie Scutt (Don Scutt) of Cordova, Alaska; and Penny Evans of McMinnville, Oregon; and six grandchildren: Jamison Schuetz of Corvallis, Oregon; Shannon Evans of Salem, Oregon; Nicholas Schuetz (Rachael Schuetz) of Bend, Oregon; Katharine Conrad of Bellingham, Washington; Nathaniel Conrad (Hailey Poole) of Everett, Washington; and Will Scutt of Kansas City, Kansas.

She was preceded in death by her parents, two brothers, Ted and Tom; and her husband, Norm (1974).

Pat was a strong supporter of her local food bank. In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to your local food bank, YCAP of McMinnville, Oregon, St. Vincent DePaul in Prineville, or the Salvation Army.

Hanford cleanup project running late, over budget The Associated Press YAKIMA, Wash. — One of the federal government’s largest construction projects is unlikely to be completed under its currently $12.3 billion budget and some deadlines are in jeopardy of being missed, according to a new review the U.S. Department of Energy released Monday.

The findings mark the latest in a string of cost overruns and delays for a nuclear waste treatment plant at south-central Washington’s Hanford nuclear reservation.

The plant, which is 60 percent complete, is being built to convert highly radioactive

COCC suit Continued from C1 Alicia Moore, the dean of student and enrollment services, said the college and its legal team struggled to understand Solo’s lawsuit. “As we read (the suit), we couldn’t tell exactly what his claims were,� Moore said.

COCC’s response often acknowledges Solo’s points, if only for the sake of argument. “Taking all of plaintiff’s allegations in his complaint as true and viewed in the light most favorable to him, he has not alleged any facts that show that Bernhard [sic] and Amar played any affirmative part in depriving him of any constitutional right.�

Solo attempts to clarify his case in a second filing.

COCC, for instance, argues it was unclear what “protected class� Solo was a member of. In his response, Solo writes his civil rights were violated as a “student.�

The lawsuit is an unusual one for COCC and nothing similar has been filed

waste into a safe form for permanent disposal.

The Energy Department’s rating for the project, which is based on whether it will meet costs and schedules, is likely to be downgraded in the next few days, said Dave Huizenga, the DOE’s acting assistant secretary for environmental management.

Huizenga said the agency would be notifying the Justice Department and the states of Washington and Oregon that some deadlines may be in jeopardy. He did not specify which deadlines.

The plant is scheduled to begin operating in 2019 under

for at least 15 years, according to Moore. Solo declined via voicemail to comment on the case until the college’s motion to dismiss is decided later this month.

According to his self-written lawsuit, Solo’s trouble began after he complained about food in the COCC dining hall run by Sodexo — an international company. Solo claims that a company employee’s husband told him, “Sodexo is a big company. You should be careful that you don’t get fitted for some cement shoes and thrown into the Deschutes River.�

Sodexo is not a defendant in the case and declined to comment. Solo does not name the husband.

Two weeks later, around May 17, Solo found the .25-caliber bullet on the floor of the men’s restroom across from his room. Solo writes he reported the bullet to a resident assistant and Bernard allegedly warned him against telling any other students.

Bernard and Amar declined to comment.

The bullet, Solo alleges, had “the intended purpose of delivering a death threat to me, in an attempt to frighten me into silence.�

FEATUR ED OBITUARY

Munson served as the biased voice of Georgia football for 4 decades The Associated Press ATHENS, Ga. — Larry Munson, whose growling delivery as the voice of the Georgia Bulldogs for nearly 43 years made him as celebrated as the players and coaches he covered, died Sunday night.

He was 89.

A university statement said Munson died at his Athens home of complications from pneumonia, according to his son, Michael.

Munson’s broadcasting career covered more than 60 years and included a stint with the Atlanta Braves when they moved from Milwaukee in 1966. But he’ll always be remembered as the radio announcer at Georgia, endearing himself to generations of fans with his quirky calls and unabashed partisanship for the Bulldogs. “Hunker down!� he would implore when the team faced a crucial play.

Munson’s delivery was unique and often imitated.

There were so many imitators among Georgia fans that contests became common to determine the best impersonation.

University of Georgia play-by-play announcer Larry Munson, center, calls a game between the Bulldogs and Georgia Southern in August 2008 in Athens, Ga. Munson died Sunday at age 89.

He thrilled Georgia fans with calls such as “Run, Lindsay, run!� during Lindsay Scott’s 93-yard touchdown reception against Florida that kept the Bulldogs on course for the 1980 national championship.

After telling fans he broke through his steel chair during Scott’s run, Munson added that excited Georgia fans from Jacksonville to Jekyll Island, Ga., might follow his path. “Man, is there gonna be

some property destroyed tonight!� he exclaimed.

In 1994, Munson was inducted into the Georgia Association of Broadcasters Hall of Fame. In 2005, he claimed a spot in the Georgia Sports Hall of Fame. Two years ago, he was inducted into the National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association Hall of Fame.

a consent decree signed by a judge 13 months ago. Other milestones also are in place to ensure the project remains on pace to meet that deadline.

Washington Gov. Chris Gregoire said she was “extremely disappointed to hear about a possible delay in cleanup.� “The construction schedule, set by consent decree, established timelines for our highest priority projects,�

Gregoire added in a statement issued late Monday. “We are awaiting more information from the Department of Energy to determine why they are saying the timelines for clean-up are at serious risk.�

On May 19, COCC Student Housing Coordinator Paul Wheeler called Solo to a hearing because the student had “warned a few of my fellow students, as is my duty, that ‘someone may have a gun in the dorm,’� according to the lawsuit.

Wheeler emailed Juniper residents about the bullet on the same day.

In his lawsuit, Solo details the hearing that led to his eviction from Juniper. The lawsuit describes the eviction as “unjustified, without due process and quite illegal.�

Solo argues that the “conspirators� had worked for months to “find a way to throw me out of the dorm ...�

In his lawsuit, Solo asks for $1 million in damages “so that a clear message may be sent to other institutions of higher education that operate within the great State of Oregon, and throughout the land, everywhere within this wonderful country, the land of the truly free, in these United States of America ... to show that ... severe violations of student civil rights will always be punished severely and defended vehemently!� — Reporter: 541-633-2161, pcliff@bendbulletin.com

Mayor reflects on ‘brawl over port-a-potties,’ crime

By Kim Murphy Los Angeles Times

PORTLAND — Portland Mayor Sam Adams, the first openly gay man to lead a major American city, is no stranger to street protest — he’s been in the middle of more than he can count. He’s battled for bike lanes, railed against social services funding cuts and led the charge for green buildings.

Now, he’s the progressive mayor of one of the nation’s most progressive cities — and his police force recently stormed in riot gear through a camp full of true believers.

“It turned into a brawl over port-a-potties and crime,” Adams said glumly last week at City Hall, not far from where the abandoned parks of Occupy Portland stood empty and forlorn, surrounded with chain-link fences.

From New York to Oakland, Occupy camps have worn out their welcome, with crime, squalor and traffic blockades increasingly capturing more attention than proclamations about corporate dominion and inequitable wealth.

But the decision to close them has been heart-wrenching for mayors in many cities — particularly in Portland, Seattle and Vancouver, British Columbia — where bicycle-riding, carbon-hating politicians probably feel as much sympathy to

the people in the camps as to the downtown business executives yelling about threats to the holiday shopping season.

“I support a lot of what the movement stands for, as a political leader. But as a mayor, I have responsibilities that are different from that,” Adams said.

Elected in 2008 but damaged politically after a scandal involving a relationship with a young former aide, Adams was almost exuberant when the first of the Occupy Portland protesters planted themselves downtown at Lownsdale Square and adjacent Chapman Park.

‘A principled approach’ “My first email to the staff was, all right, let’s plan on how we can make this peaceful,” Adams said. “I wanted the city to respond from a principled approach. We were going to balance free speech while managing the impacts of that and keeping the city safe and moving. We were going to be patient, we were going to staff ourselves, and we were going to engage.”

But as time wore on, so did the city’s patience. Five weeks into Occupy Portland, half of Adams’ progressive supporters were in the camp; the other half were pleading with him to make it go away.

The warren of tents, tarps

and cookstoves, as with many camps across the country, had become a haven for teen runaways and the mentally ill homeless. Assaults were rising; there were drug overdoses, staph infections and reports of rats; the camp had to open “safe injection” and “sexual assault response” tents.

Adams managed to pull off possibly the cleanest Occupy eviction in the country so far — no pepper spray, no rubber bullets. He did it by giving the camp three days’ notice, allowing upward of 5,000 supporters to surge in for a last street party as the deadline slipped by, then sending officers with batons in to clear out the few entrenched campers who remained.

Occupy Portland leaders were nonetheless incensed, complaining of heavy-handed police.

Other erstwhile liberal allies said the mayor succeeded in managing the camp but botched the opportunity to use it to advance a progressive agenda.

“It was really a missed opportunity to really be a shining light that a lot of people on the progressive side hoped he could be and knew he could be. There’s a lot of parallels to (President Barack) Obama in that regard,” said Jonathan Maus, cycling advocate.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL Arizona hires Rich Rodriguez Rich Rodriguez turned West Virginia into a national championship contender before flaming out as Michigan coach Rodriguez under enormous expectations.

Those turbulent three seasons with the Wolverines didn’t stop Arizona from hiring Rodriguez to overhaul a program that has been mired in mediocrity for most of the past decade.

The 48-year-old Rodriguez will be introduced today during a news conference in Tucson at the McKale Center, home of the Arizona basketball teams.

Athletic Director Greg Byrne fired coach Mike Stoops last month after he went 41-50 in sevenplus seasons at the Pac12 school. Rodriguez was fired by Michigan after last season. He went 15-22 with the Wolverines and the program was cited for rules violations by the NCAA during his tenure.

BASEBALL M’s outfielder Halman killed THE HAGUE, Netherlands — Seattle Mariners outfielder Greg Halman was stabbed to death early Monday and his brother was arrested Halman as a suspect, Dutch police said.

Rotterdam Police spokeswoman Patricia Wessels said police were called to a home in the port city in the early hours of the morning and found the 24-yearold Dutch player bleeding from a stab wound.

The officers and ambulance paramedics were unable to resuscitate Halman.

Wessels said the officers arrested Halman’s 22-year-old brother. She declined to give his name, in line with Dutch privacy rules.

Halman hit .230 in 35 games and made starts at all three outfield positions for the Mariners in 2011 before being optioned to Triple-A Tacoma.

FootZone owner Teague Hatfield, left, and employee Dave Thomason insert sheet metal screws into the soles of running shoes to prepare them for winter running at FootZone in Bend earlier this month.

Gaining traction • Want to run safely outside through the winter in Central Oregon? Putting screws on your shoes could be the answer.

AMANDA MILES

T

he fact that it has already started snowing here in Central Oregon does not excite me.

I realize that such a sentiment might be considered sacrilege in these parts, given the abundance of fluffy-white-stuff enthusiasts. But, as my second winter in the region approaches, I still do not understand what the big deal is. In fact, I can

find the snow to be quite tiresome.

A lot of that has to do with how I spend my time outside. I am a die-hard outdoor exerciser, especially when it comes to running. Only the worst conditions — and by worst, I mean sheer layers of ice covering all surfaces so as to render running impossible — drive me inside. I have said more than once that I would rather shoot myself in the foot than trot along on a treadmill, that mind-numbingly boring belt to nowhere.

Bend High’s season-ending state football playoff defeat to West Albany on Friday provided plenty of drama.

The Lava Bears, who lost 2821 to the Bulldogs, rallied back after trailing by 21 points, only to give up a late touchdown before another Bend comeback attempt fell short with an incomplete pass in the end zone. The Lava Bears’ state quarterfinal game, though, was nothing compared to their bus trip home.

Traveling along the Santiam Pass from Albany, Bend High’s football team and staff were sidelined on U.S. Highway 20 for about five hours early Saturday morning after their bus slid into a snow embankment near Lost Lake, approximately 25 miles west of Sisters. The snow chains on the chartered bus Bend High had rented came loose around 11:30 p.m. and caught in the rear axel, according to Lava Bear assistant coach Scott Novelli.

ver at the Bowl Championship Series, the short answer to the question of when there will be a playoff in college football remains the same. Never.

But get back in touch with the BCS next week, or better yet, with their sponsors after the Jan. 9 championship game and ask the question then.

For years now, playoff advocates have been drawing up nightmare scenarios that would shame the BCS out of business, but this season it’s practically guaranteed that the title game will leave many fans unsatisfied.

MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL

Tigers’ Verlander is first pitcher to be named MVP since 1992 • Boston’s Jacoby Ellsbury — a Madras High and Oregon State product — takes second in the voting in the American League

By Tyler Kepner New York Times News Service

Early in the last decade, when he was still an unblemished legend, Roger Clemens invited me to Houston to interview him in the trophy room of his home. The centerpiece of the display was a stone wall with his Cy Young Awards encircling the most sacred and rarest prize for a pitcher: the most valuable player.

Until Monday, no starting pitcher had won that award since Clemens in 1986. Now, the American League award belongs to Justin Verlander of the Detroit Tigers, another righthanded power pitcher, who said he grew up

idolizing Clemens.

“I remember seeing that he won an MVP and thinking that may never happen again, and how impressive that was,” Verlander said Monday on a conference call with reporters.

“That means a lot to me, to be the successor to that.”

The idea that a pitcher could be his league’s most valuable player is nothing new. The first time the writers association selected the American League MVP, in 1931, they gave it to Lefty Grove, the ace of the Philadelphia Athletics.

S B Cross country • Oregon women finish fifth at NCAA Cross Country Championships: Jordan Hasay matched the best finish by a Duck in school history to lead Oregon to a fifth-place finish Monday at the 2011 NCAA Cross Country Championships in Terre Haute, Ind. Senior Luke Puskedra also earned his fourth straight All-America award for his sixth-place individual finish in the men’s race. Villanova senior Sheila Reid won the women’s race with a time of 19:41.2, while Hasay clocked in with a time of 19:41.8. Wisconsin won the men’s title with 97 points.

Portland finished eighth in men’s with 259 points. Georgetown took the women’s title with 162 points, beating out Washington (170), Villanova (181), Florida State (189) and Oregon (281).

• Doctors amputate frostbitten feet of Alaska runner: An All-American distance runner who spent more than two days in freezing winter temperatures without winter gear has had his legs amputated just above the ankles. Marko Cheseto, 28, is one of several Kenyan runners who competed for the University of Alaska Anchorage in crosscountry and track. Cheseto was seen at about 7 p.m. in a UAA building on Nov. 6, a Sunday night, as two snow storms started to blanket the city. His roommates reported him missing the next morning. Cheseto was found early the following Wednesday outside a hotel near the campus. He was suffering from hypothermia and severe frostbite on his feet and hands.

Football • U-Haul nixes truck malfunction claim in Yale death: A U-Haul official says comments by the attorney of a driver of a rented truck that struck and killed a woman at the Yale-Harvard football game were “reckless, inappropriate and disrespectful to the victims and their families.”

Attorney William Dow had called Saturday’s crash a “tragic accident that appears to be the result of a vehicle malfunction.” Dow represents Yale student Brendan Ross. U-Haul Co. of Connecticut President Pete Sciortino said Monday that Dow had no basis to claim that the vehicle malfunctioned. The company says the truck had been up-to-date on scheduled maintenance.

• Louisiana-Lafayette headed to New Orleans Bowl: Louisiana-Lafayette will make its first bowl appearance in 41 years in the 2011 New Orleans Bowl.

The Ragin’ Cajuns were officially invited to the bowl Monday and are scheduled to take on an as yet unnamed team from Conference USA. Louisiana-Lafayette’s last bowl appearance was in 1970. The postseason bowl game will be held Dec. 17 in the Superdome. Kickoff is at 5 p.m.

PST. Louisiana Lafayette is 8-3 overall and 6-2 in the Sun Belt Conference under first-year coach Mark Hudspeth.

• Washington State QB Halliday to miss Apple Cup: Washington State quarterback Connor Halliday will miss the Apple Cup against rival Washington this weekend because of a lacerated liver suffered in an overtime loss to Utah. Halliday was taken out of the intensive care unit but will remain at Pullman Regional Hospital, Bill Drake, assistant athletic director for training services, said Monday.

Baseball • Valentine goes after Boston manager job: Bobby Valentine has interviewed to become manager of the Boston Red Sox, the sixth person brought in for a talk with general manager Ben Cherington. Valentine, who is working as an analyst for ESPN, met with the Red Sox brain trust this month and talked with reporters Monday at Fenway Park.

Valentine managed in the major leagues with Texas (1985-92) and the Mets (1996-02), finishing up his two major league stints 45 games above .500. He also managed in Japan from 2004-09, winning the Japan Series in 2005 with the Chiba Lotte Marines.

Tennis • Djokovic recovers to beat Berdych at ATP finals: Novak Djokovic saved a match point in the third set against Tomas Berdych before winning 3-6, 6-3, 7-6 (3) Monday to avoid becoming the second upset of the day at the ATP World Tour Finals in London. No. 3-ranked Andy Murray earlier struggled through a 6-4, 7-5 loss to David Ferrer with a groin injury he fears could end his tournament. Murray said he would decide today whether he will pull out.

Basketball • NBA players move legal fight to Minnesota: After filing two separate antitrust lawsuits against the league in two different states, NBA players are consolidating their efforts and have turned to the courts in Minnesota as their chosen venue. A group of named plaintiffs including Carmelo Anthony, Steve Nash, Kevin Durant and Chauncey Billups filed an amended federal lawsuit against the league in Minnesota on Monday, hoping the courts there will be as favorable to them as they have been to NFL players in the past. The locked-out players filed classaction antitrust suits against the league last Tuesday in California and Minnesota. But the California complaint was withdrawn Monday. Players’ lawyer David Boies said he believes the combined case will move more quickly in Minnesota.

MOTOR SPORTS COMMENTARY

Patriots beat Chiefs, 34-3

By Howard Ulman The Associated Press

FOXBOROUGH, Mass.

— Rob Gronkowski somersaulted into the end zone, staggered to his feet and still managed to spike the ball.

“I was just fine,” the Patriots star tight end said. “I just got the wind knocked out of me a little bit.”

New England was more than fine after looking groggy on offense early in the game before finishing big with a 34-3 win over the Kansas City Chiefs on Monday night.

Tom Brady threw two touchdown passes to Gronkowski, who has five in his past three games. Julian Edelman returned a punt 72 yards for another score and Kyle Arrington had two of the Patriots three interceptions.

“We try to be a very opportunistic defense,” Arrington said, “and when plays like that present themselves, you’ve got to capitalize on them. And if I can get into the end zone one of these times, that would be good, too.”

The Patriots (7-3) didn’t need him to do that on Monday when they increased their AFC East lead to two games.

The Chiefs (4-6) weren’t expected to do much on offense behind untested quarterback Tyler Palko, who threw three interceptions in his first career start with Matt Cassel injured. And they didn’t, managing just a 26-yard field goal

by Ryan Succop with 1:30 left in the first quarter for their only lead.

“Three interceptions is inexcusable,” Palko said. “The

Edwards shows class, dignity in being NASCAR Sprint Cup bridesmaid

By Jenna Fryer The Associated Press

HOMESTEAD, Fla. — arl Edwards did everything right in his quest to win NASCAR’s championship.

He was strong and steady for 10 consecutive weeks, he salvaged solid finishes on the days his Roush Fenway Racing team struggled, and he stood steely in the path of Tony Stewart’s unyielding verbal assault.

In almost any other year — and all five in the Jimmie Johnson reign — he’d have woken up Monday a NASCAR champion.

Not this year, though. And there’s nothing he could have done differently to change the outcome.

Edwards went round-forround with Stewart in what might be the greatest fight for the title in NASCAR history and lost. The two finished tied in the final Sprint Cup Series points standings — a first in NASCAR history — and Stewart took the tiebreaker based on his five victories to Edwards’ one.

So despite winning the pole, leading the most laps in Sunday’s season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway and finishing second to Stewart, Edwards went home the bridesmaid in what many believe to be the most gripping championship-deciding race ever.

“We knew we could come into this thing and we knew that of all of the circumstances that could happen, this one was the least probable,” Edwards said. “I mean, for us to finish like that, tied, fighting for the win. That is the least probable outcome.”

If somebody had told Edwards a month ago that he’d close the season with three consecutive second-place finishes and that he’d close the 10-race Chase with a 4.9-average finish, he’d most certainly have bet the house on his odds to win the title.

But who could have known that a version of Stewart not seen in these parts for years would clog his path?

See, Smoke and his skills, his ability to do anything he wants in a race car, his fearlessness and reckless abandon, it’s almost legendary.

People talk of that Stewart with awe and revere and dole out the highest of compliments when they describe him, simply, as “a racer.”

And, yeah, the reputation precedes him. The reality, though, was Stewart hadn’t driven up to his reputation, at least not in NASCAR, for some time — and that was evident at the start of this season when he lost the Daytona 500 on the final restart.

He slogged through the season, flirting with wins early, only to lose out by silly mistakes. Then his Stewart-Haas Racing team lost direction, and Stewart all but abandoned any hope of being a major player in the championship race.

Something changed in the last six weeks, though, and when Stewart got his eyes set

New England Patriots’ Julian Edelman (11) returns a punt 72 yards for a touchdown against the Kansas City Chiefs during the third quarter of an NFL football game in Foxborough, Mass., Monday. Chasing are Chiefs’ Cameron Sheffield (55) and Jeremy Horne (11).

game is hard enough as it is without making mistakes.”

With Gronkowski collecting his ninth and 10th TD receptions of the season, the Patriots had their second straight dominant game after beating the New York Jets 37-16. The Chiefs lost their third straight.

The Patriots didn’t generate much of an attack during their first four series. There were three punts and a fumble by Brady that was recovered by Kansas City’s Allen Bailey on the first play of the second quarter. And on his next series, Brady was sacked twice.

“Obviously, the first half

we didn’t do anything,” Brady said. “I don’t think it could have gotten much worse.”

But the protection improved and Brady, who had thrown for just 19 yards in the first quarter, took advantage, leading three consecutive scoring drives.

He connected with Gronkowski for a 52-yard score when the tight end caught the ball over the middle and scampered the last 35 yards, barely managing to remain inbounds on the right side as he neared the end zone.

“When I get the ball, you

just don’t want to go down,” he said. “You’ve got to try and do something with the ball.

That’s why you get it.”

Arrington, who leads the NFL with seven interceptions, got his first of the game on Kansas City’s next series and Stephen Gostkowski made it 10-3 at halftime with a 21-yard field goal.

“We were still fighting and we knew it was a close game going into halftime,” Chiefs safety Kendrick Lewis said.

“They got a big play and a big score (Gronkowski’s second touchdown) in the second half and that started their rally.”

Status of injured NFL stars up in the air The Associated Press Bears quarterback Jay Cutler has a broken thumb, Titans QB Matt Hasselbeck is dealing with an injured right arm, and Vikings running back Adrian Peterson has a high left ankle sprain.

Those three stars were injured in games Sunday, placing their status in doubt not only for next weekend’s games, but for a longer term.

Raiders receiver Darrius HeywardBey was feeling better a day after being carted off the field with his neck stabilized after the scary collision with Minnesota linebacker E.J. Henderson.

Cutler will undergo surgery on his right hand, a major blow for a team contending for a playoff spot in the NFC. Coach Lovie Smith said Cutler will be out “for an extended time” but expects to get him back this season. He would not say when the surgery would take place, just “hopefully fairly quick” and provided few details about the specific nature of the injury.

“Is it a season-ending injury? No,” Smith said Monday. “From what I’ve been told right now, we can expect him back at the end of the regular season.”

Hasselbeck has no structural damage to his right forearm and elbow and likely will try to throw this week to see if he can play against Tampa Bay. He was hurt during the 23-17 loss in Atlanta when he hit his arm on a defender’s helmet. Coach Mike Munchak isn’t expecting the 13-year veteran to practice Wednesday.

On Monday, Kansas City placed its starting quarterback, Matt Cassel, on injured reserve with a broken right hand.

Peterson will be in a walking boot this week, leaving his availability for Sun-

day’s game at Atlanta in question. Peterson has a Grade 1 sprain, the least severe of the three categories, with “a little bit of” ligament damage, coach Leslie Frazier said. Peterson will wear the boot for a few days to protect the joint and won’t try to practice until Friday.

“The good news is there’s nothing more serious than that,” Frazier said, adding: “He’ll recover from it. It’s just the amount of time that he’ll miss. We’ll have a better indication toward the end of the week.”

Raiders coach Hue Jackson was encouraged by Heyward-Bey’s condition.

“I think we’re beyond the major part of it,” Jackson said. “Now I think it’s more of let’s see how fast he heals and see exactly where he is. He had the neck, back issue and a concussion so we need to get him past those things.”

Jackson also said he would not know the status of running back Darren McFadden and receiver Jacoby Ford until later in the week. Both players have been sidelined by a sprained foot.

Also hurt Sunday were Cardinals nose tackle Dan Williams, gone for the season with a broken left arm; Bills cornerback Terrence McGee (left knee), who also is likely done for 2011; and Buffalo running back Fred Jackson (right calf).

Sustaining concussions were Giants running back D.J. Ware, Cardinals tackle Brandon Keith, and Browns fullback Owen Marecic.

49ers coach Jim Harbaugh expects a quick recovery for fullback Bruce Miller, who sustained a concussion during Sunday’s win over Arizona. He didn’t play in the second half.

“He’s doing all right. He’s doing good,” Harbaugh said Monday. “I thought he was doing pretty darn good at halftime,

too, when I checked on him. It’s getting better. So, he’s clearing up and I think he’ll be fine.”

Bills receiver Donnie Jones aggravated an ankle problem, while Carolina DE Charles Johnson hurt his left shoulder.

Packers RB James Starks has a sprained knee and a sore ankle, and Green Bay isn’t sure if he can play in the Thanksgiving Day game at Detroit.

Starks hurt his knee late in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s victory over Tampa Bay. The Packers did not practice Monday, but Starks likely would not have been able to go if they did.

Redskins LT Trent Williams has a mild MCL sprain in his left knee, something coach Mike Shanahan calls a “good sign” and that “most people play” with that injury.

Giants backup CB Michael Coe hurt his shoulder and needs surgery, finishing his season.

Rams defensive back Marquis Johnson has an abdominal contusion and checked into a hospital for observation.

Linebacker Josh Hull aggravated a hamstring injury in the first half Sunday and coach Steve Spagnuolo said Hull would probably be out this week. Offensive tackle Mark Levoir (chest) will be out two to four weeks.

In Houston, Andre Johnson practiced Monday, and coach Gary Kubiak is optimistic he’ll play Sunday. Johnson has missed the past six games with a right hamstring injury that required surgery.

QB Matt Schaub is going to see a foot specialist to get a “definitive” diagnosis on his Lisfranc injury and decide if he’ll need season-ending surgery, Kubiak said. Schaub wore a protective boot on his right foot as he watched practice Monday.

Terry Renna / The Associated Press

Carl Edwards finished second to Tony Stewart in the NASCAR championship on Sunday.

on a third championship, nothing was getting in his way.

“When someone wants to win like that, they aren’t going to give up,” A.J. Foyt, Stewart’s childhood idol, told The Associated Press on Monday.

“Tony was not going to quit.

Period. Now, I knew Carl Edwards wasn’t going to lay down. But I’m pretty certain Carl Edwards didn’t know Tony’s will. Come hell or high water, Tony was winning the whole thing.”

So that’s how they got to late Sunday night, when a disappointed Edwards sat silently in Homestead’s media center watching Stewart’s championship celebration on a bank of televisions. He’d shaken Stewart’s hand, and he’d consoled crew chief Bob Osborne, who had to be devastated by the final outcome.

But Edwards himself? He didn’t pout. He didn’t scowl.

And if he had himself a good cry, he most certainly didn’t do it in public.

There are those who say Edwards is so very image-conscious that he must have been less than genuine. But his conduct in the hours after Sunday’s race showed just how to act with class and sportsmanship in the face of defeat.

“I told myself, I told my family, that the one thing I’m going to do is I’m going to walk back to that motorhome, win, lose or draw, and I’m going to be a good example for my kids and work hard and go be better next season,” Edwards said.

Edwards knows he can’t dwell on the Chase, and even if he did second-guess the past 10 weeks, he’d be hard-pressed to find a single thing he could have done differently. Edwards talked of taking his family to the beach on Monday, of helping Roush-Fenway celebrate Ricky Stenhouse Jr.’s Nationwide title, of getting back into the gym and starting the preparations for 2012, when he’ll try again to win his first Cup title.

“At least we know that we can compete with any of these people,” Edwards said. “We can compete with a three-time champion winning half of the Chase races. We can still score as many points as them.

That’s a big deal. And I know that there are a lot of tests in life and I think that the last three or four weeks have been a huge test for me and for my team mentally.

“For us to keep our confidence up, to keep our cool, and to go out and perform and do our jobs, I’m really proud and believe next year we’ll do even better.”

Crosby leads Penguins over Islanders The Associated Press PITTSBURGH — One flick of the wrist. One guttural scream.

One very simple message to the rest of an equal parts welcoming and wary NHL. Sidney Crosby is back.

The superstar center capped his return from concussion-like symptoms with two goals and two assists in his season debut as the Pittsburgh Penguins roared by the New York Islanders 5-0 on Monday night.

Unleashing more than 10 months of frustration in 16 energetic minutes, Crosby put to rest all the questions that had popped up during his lengthy comeback.

Can he still skate? Can he take a hit? Can he play at his nearly peerless level? Can he mix it up?

The answer — for the first night anyway — is an emphatic yes.

“I don’t really have good words for it,” coach Dan Bylsma said.

NHL ROUNDUP “That was special in a lot of ways.”

For no one more than Crosby, who celebrated his first goal in 328 days in decidedly un-Crosbylike fashion.

After a breathless sprint down the ice in which he weaved through the New York defense and beat rookie Anders Nilsson with a backhand, Crosby raised his arms in triumph and let out a roar punctuated by a hard-to-miss profanity.

He laughed while watching himself on replay and later apologized for his poor choice of words while admitting “I couldn’t hold that in.”

Crosby added assists on goals by Evgeni Malkin and Brooks Orpik and capped his comeback with a second tally, a backhand that fluttered by Nilsson early in the third period to provide the final margin.

Steve Sullivan also scored for

the Penguins while Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 29 shots to collect his 21st career shutout, one behind franchise leader Tom Barrasso.

Nilsson made 31 saves for New York.

BCS

MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL ROUNDUP

Continued from D1 Last week, four of the top seven teams in the BCS standings lost their footing and left an unprecedented three teams from the same division — the SEC West — holding down the top of the leaderboard.

Two of them, most likely current No. 1 LSU and No. 2 Alabama, figure to be on hand at the Superdome for the title game. But even if No. 3 Arkansas grabs one of those spots, the newly crowned BCS champion will seem more mythical than ever.

Remember, the BCS hijacked the postseason in 1998 with the promise of matching the No. 1 and No. 2 teams at the very end. And every time logic didn’t jibe with their rankings, the guys in charge “tweaked” the formula after the championship game and promised it wouldn’t happen again. You can argue over which school got jobbed the worst since then, but the two unofficial tweaks that matter here — a team must win its conference championship; the BCS finale shouldn’t be a rematch of a regular-season game — likely means it’s the fans who will feel cheated the most.

LSU, Alabama and Arkansas all will have played each other by the time next weekend rolls around and it’s possible that none of them will be the SEC champion when the game ends on Dec. 3.

Given the results of that little roundrobin tournament so far, only fans of tractor pulls will be rooting to see any two of those three reprise those games in January.

LSU slogged past Alabama 9-6 in overtime and the Crimson Tide pounded Arkansas 38-14.

In the past, the waiting period between the end of the regular season and the championship game has always worked in the BCS’ favor. Tempers cool as weeks pass. The outrageous lobbying and occasionally over-thetop remarks coaches make about the selection process recede into the background. Among fans, a kind of fatigue sets in. Arguing over whether either or both teams are deserving gives way to acceptance. It’s like walking around with a rock in your shoe.

What makes this season even more aggravating is that the rankings are just about right. Arkansas ventures into Baton Rouge on Friday and if the Razorbacks pull off an upset and go on to beat SEC East entrant Georgia in the conference championship, they will have earned the trip to New Orleans.

There are 14 one-loss teams in the mix at the moment, but few would deny that LSU — even if the Tigers lose to Arkansas — and Alabama would be the most deserving of the lot. The problem is that all three would have flaws we might be willing to overlook if they had to clear a path to that championship game on the field — it’s called a playoff — instead of relying on computer operators and best guesses to deposit them there. Now, there’s virtually no chance the winner gets the benefit of the doubt from the majority of fans.

All we know for certain is that the guys in charge at the BCS don’t mind seeing their brand being kicked around like a rusty can everywhere from the Oval Office down to the corner tavern.

It hardly matters to them if the tweaks require additional tweaking, or if they throw out a stinker in the showcase game now and then. We keep hearing how resilient college football is, but it’s hard to remember a worse couple of years for the game.

Southern California isn’t bowl eligible because of the excesses of the Reggie Bush era and Miami didn’t even wait for an invitation to turn down because of the ongoing investigation into a rogue booster’s largesse. Ohio State, on the other hand, isn’t likely to say no, despite standing on the threshold of NCAA double-secret probation, and probably neither will Penn State, embroiled in a child sex-abuse scandal that makes the usual transgressions in the sport barely worth mentioning.

What all those scandals have in common is, at the very least, the whiff of corruption, not to mention what the NCAA terms a lack of institutional control. So how fitting is it that the BCS, which has twisted itself into a pretzel countless times to hang onto the postseason franchise and been just transparent enough to stay ahead of lawsuits and the Congress, could finally get called out by the fans for doing exactly what it was created to do?

It’s shaping up to be a bowl season that will be memorable for all the wrong reasons. Can’t wait to see how the BCS tries to tweak its way out of this one.

Bend Continued from D1 “Most people were asleep, but I can’t sleep on buses,” Novelli said Monday, recalling Friday’s bus mishap. “It wasn’t catastrophic like some huge wreck. It was like slow motion. You heard a ‘thunk, thunk, thunk,’ and the next thing you know we’re losing traction on the back.”

No one was hurt in the accident — Novelli estimated about 40 people were on the bus — but the vehicle was stopped perpendicular to

Oregon State falls to No. 18 Vanderbilt Th e Associated Press EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Craig Robinson really likes his Oregon State squad. The coach likes it enough that he would have loved to have been a teammate.

“For the first time in 17 years I want to be on a team and not just coach them,” the former Princeton player said after the Beavers lost 6462 to No. 18 Vanderbilt on Monday night in the championship game of the TicketCity Legends Classic. “They are so unselfish and so much fun to watch.”

Oregon State surprised Texas in the semifinals on Saturday night with a 100-95 overtime victory.

The Beavers just couldn’t pull off the tournament double at the Izod Center.

This is the fourth season at Oregon State for Robinson, the brother-in-law of President Barack Obama, and the best of them has been a .500 record. Last season ended with an 11-20 mark.

Ahmad Starks, who finished with 16 points and five assists, was asked what the difference was between this team and others under Robinson at Oregon State.

“The big difference is team camaraderie, how we all bond playing for each other,” he said. “During the comeback we were all talking. We know the game isn’t over. That’s the biggest thing.”

Robinson quickly spoke up.

“I agree with him,” he said.

Brad Tinsley hit a 15-foot jumper with 4.5 seconds left for Vanderbilt, which received a stellar defensive effort from Jeffrey Taylor against Oregon State’s Jared Cunningham, who had 35 and 37 points, respectively, in his previous two games.

“He did a great job on Cunningham all game.

Jeff left it all out there,” Vanderbilt coach Kevin Stallings said. “It was a solid outing defending their best player. Jeff has grown up and matured to handle that responsibility. We made some big adjustments to keep him off the foul line. He had 23 foul shots the other night and we kept him down (to five) tonight. I’ll take that. It was a big emphasis for the entire team to guard him. When he had the ball, they all had to guard him.”

Cunningham finished with nine points on three-for-nine shooting.

“Jared’s a marked man now,” Robinson said.

“We expect Jared to understand that and help others get involved, even though he was being covered so tightly. He had seven steals. He affects the game even when he’s not scoring 35 points a game.”

John Jenkins, Vanderbilt’s top scorer at 23 points per game and the tournament MVP, finished with 14 points for the Commodores (4-1), who led by eight with 10:10 to play. Taylor added 13 points and Tinsley had nine.

“Day in and day out, John Jenkins has proven to be one of the best shooters in the country,” Tinsley said. “John is such a great weapon that it was only natural that they would flood to him.

“Coach is a genius in drawing up last-second plays,” Tinsley added. “Jeffery is also a good scorer. When it came to me, I was glad to get the chance to take the shot.”

In other games on Monday:

the road, prompting Novelli to take immediate action.

“I grabbed the bus driver’s Maglite (flash light) and ran about a mile up the hill (on the road),” said Novelli, who made sure oncoming vehicles had plenty of warning that an accident was ahead. “There were seven coaches on the bus, some of us went high and some went low (on the highway) making sure we were covered both ways.”

While Novelli and the other coaches waved down traffic — Bend High head coach Craig Walker was not on the bus as he

stayed in the Willamette Valley to watch Oregon State play Washington on Saturday — Lava Bear athletic department secretary Genelle Standiford went into action from her home in Bend, coordinating a bus and a driver from Bend-La Pine Schools to pick up the stranded team. Novelli and the rest of the coaches and players eventually rolled into Bend around 7:15 a.m. on Saturday.

“Genelle is the MVP of this thing,” Novelli said. “She got a hold of everyone who needed to be contacted and stayed up with us all

night.”

The ordeal was a test in patience as the Bend-La Pine Schools bus was not able to take off from Bend until 4 a.m., leaving everyone on the stranded charter bus with little to do but wait.

“It was a long night that I never want to do again,” Novelli said.

“But on the other hand, it was kind of cool how everybody banded together. … It was an unfortunate deal, but everyone did the right thing.”

MVP Continued from D1 Pitchers have won 20 times since then; the most recent before Verlander was a reliever, Oakland’s Dennis Eckersley, in 1992. Verlander said he hoped to revive the trend.

“I think this set a precedent,” Verlander said, adding later, “I’m happy the voters acknowledged that we do have a major impact in this game, and we can be extremely valuable to our team and its success.”

Verlander, who won the AL Cy Young Award unanimously last week, led the league in victories, earned run average and strikeouts. He is the only AL pitcher to reach 24 wins and 250 strikeouts, with an ERA of 2.40 or lower, since the advent of the designated hitter in 1973.

The last pitchers to receive MVP votes were the Angels’ Francisco Rodriguez and the Phillies’ Brad Lidge in 2008. The last pitcher to come close to winning was Boston’s Pedro Martinez, who was second in 1999 after going 23-4 with a 2.07 ERA and 313 strikeouts.

Martinez had the most first-place votes that year but was left off two ballots, which stretch to 10th place. Verlander appeared on 27 of 28 ballots this year; only Jim Ingraham of The News-Herald, near Cleveland, omitted him.

Ingraham told SiriusXM Radio on Monday that while he did not want to detract from Verlander’s success, “philosophically, I’m not comfortable voting for a player that plays in such a low percentage of his team’s games.”

Detroit played 128 games without Verlander, but his durability helped keep the bullpen fresh. Verlander also faced 969 hitters; Boston outfielder Jacoby Ellsbury, the runner-up, had 729 plate appearances.

Verlander collected 13 first-place votes; Ellsbury had four. Toronto’s Jose Bautista finished third (but had five first-place votes), followed by the Yankees’ Curtis Granderson (three first-place votes) and the Tigers’ Miguel Cabrera (two). The Yankees’ Robinson Cano finished sixth, just ahead of Boston’s Adrian Gonzalez. The Texas Rangers’ Michael Young, who finished eighth, had the other first-place vote.

This was the first time since 2003 that at least six players received a first-place vote for MVP. That season 10 players got first-place votes for the AL honor, which went to Alex Rodriguez of last-place Texas. In a similarly splintered field this year, Joe Stiglich of the Bay Area News Group voted for Bautista, even though Toronto did not contend.

“He led the league in OPS, and I just thought he had very little help in that lineup,” Stiglich said. “He was just a strong overall candidate across the board. I don’t like going with a guy who doesn’t help his team contend seriously for the postseason, but it was kind of a process of elimination, settling on him and feeling best about going with him. I really wrestled with it.”

Advanced statistics were cloudy in this debate. The metric Wins Above Replacement, which attempts to quantify each player’s overall contribution, placed Ellsbury as the league leader — but only when calculated by FanGraphs.com. By the calculations of Baseball-Reference.com, Verlander and Bautista tied for the league lead.

This much was clear: Ellsbury — who played at Madras High School and Oregon State — led the AL in total bases while batting .321 with 32 homers, 119 runs scored and 39 steals. Had Boston reached the playoffs, he very well could have won. But the Red Sox’s 7-20 record in September, even as Ellsbury hit .358 for the month, likely sank his chances.

“I thought about Ellsbury; he had great numbers,” Stiglich said. “I just had a tough time going with a Boston player after the way they collapsed.”

Stiglich put Ellsbury second, as did Joe Christensen of The Minneapolis Star Tribune, who put Verlander first. Christensen emphasized Verlander’s impact on the Tigers during the majority of their season.

Before May 7, when Verlander threw a nohitter, Detroit was 15-18. Over the next 90 games, the Tigers went 17-3 when he pitched and 33-37 when he did not. That brought them to Aug. 17 with a perilous two-game division lead, before a season-ending 30-9 sprint to run away with the division.

“I feel like it has to be a special year for a pitcher to win, and he has to really separate himself,” Christensen said. “To me, Verlander did that. I feel like he kind of put the Tigers on his shoulders. When they were treading water, it was like his start — and then four other days.”

Verlander said he did not think about winning the MVP until midseason, when the buzz grew louder. At that point, he said, “I wanted it badly.”

As for the future, Verlander said, pitchers will probably be more seriously considered now that he has won. But a consensus on their value is unlikely.

“That’s what I love about this game, the debate part of it,” Verlander said. “There’s plenty of it to be had.”

Cy Young-MVP Winners Pitchers who have won the Cy Young and MVP Awards in the same season. (The MVP Award was instituted in 1931, the Cy Young Award in 1956. The Cy Young Award was presented to only one pitcher from 1956 to 1966, since then a pitcher in each league has been named): 2011—Justin Verlander, Detroit 1992—Dennis Eckersley, Oakland 1986—Roger Clemens, Boston 1984—Willie Hernandez, Detroit 1981—Rollie Fingers, Milwaukee 1971—Vida Blue, Oakland 1968—Bob Gibson, St. Louis 1968—Denny McLain, Detroit 1963—Sandy Koufax, Los Angeles 1956—Don Newcombe, Brooklyn

COM M U N I T Y SP ORTS

Screws Continued from D1 So that is why snow bugs me: It falls and it stays and it melts and it freezes, interrupting my life and offering me the daily workout choice of either an ice-skating session or the opportunity to play the live version of the video game Frogger — with real vehicles on those roads that are clear.

But perhaps this year will be different. I cannot stop the snow from falling, but I hope to feel a bit more secure when I’m running in it this winter thanks to a set of a dozen sheet metal screws now drilled into the soles of my running shoes.

I had the studs added a week ago during FootZone’s “Screw Your Shoes” workshop. If you missed it, don’t fret: The downtown Bend running shoe store will stage another workshop on Dec. 13, and owner Teague Hatfield said the shop usually provides the service throughout the winter.

“So many people get in the same rut where they struggle getting outside in the wintertime,” said Hatfield, who personally put the screws to my shoes. “And understandably — it’s challenging. It’s challenging to get the motivation to get out, and it’s challenging, then, if you do get the motivation to go out, to be skating around and feel like you’re not safe just on a simple run or walk.”

Using a power drill, Hatfield tacked on six screws around the outside of each of my shoe soles: two on the heel, two on the midfoot just above the arch, and two on the forefoot.

The screws, three-quarterinch #6 hex head sheet metal screws, are not a foolproof method of keeping exercisers upright on wintertime runs, but they do help — much as studded tires do for cars.

“What I find for the most part is, most fresh-snow-type conditions, you don’t really need them,” explained Hatfield, who runs in studded shoes himself and was first introduced to the system by a customer some 15 years ago.

“If you’ve got snow your foot is going to leave a print in, for example, you’re pretty much fine. It’s freeze and thaw that tends to be the issue …

A sheet metal screw is inserted into the sole of a running shoe to prepare it for the snow and ice at FootZone in Bend.

(those) frozen-over, icy conditions. Quite honestly, without something metal on (the shoe), you’re not going to get a grip. So that’s when it’s really helpful.”

Adding screws to a pair of running shoes — I opted to use an older pair of shoes that still have some miles left in them — is an inexpensive way to gain some traction, but other devices that serve the same purpose do exist. For about $30 or less, outdoor exercisers can invest in a set of traction devices such as those made by Yaktrax or DueNorth. These devices usually consist of a rubber frame that is strapped around the shoe, and traction is provided in the form of coils or spikes.

“They all serve their purpose because they all honestly work to some extent,” Hatfield notes. “The disadvantage to the others is they can fall off if they don’t have a strap over the top of the foot. The disadvantage to (the screws) is that you’re putting a screw in the bottom of your shoe, and it’s obviously a little more permanent. It’s not like you’re just going to pull (the screws) off if … the snow melts off and you want to go for a run.”

However, if runners can tolerate a little clicking on pavement, they can run with the studs on a variety of surfaces: from packed snow to bare roads.

Jeff Browning, a Bend resident, converted to the screws method about six or seven years ago. He used to wear another type of traction device that he said worked well in hard-packed snow or mixed

conditions but would come off in deep snow or become clogged with snow.

After some experimenting, Browning, an ultramarathon runner, found he needed six or sometimes just four studs in his shoes because he does not heel strike. Advantages to using the screws, Browning found, are that they are lighter than other traction devices and they can be used in mixed conditions. He also noted that screws can wear down on pavement, and they can catch on the terrain features such as rocks and get pulled out.

“Check them every once in a while because you’re going to lose one, if you’re especially running on trails,” said Browning, who estimated that 90 percent of his winter running is done outdoors.

Also keep in mind that using screws — or any other traction device — is no guarantee of staying upright on snow and ice, so do not let them generate a false sense of security. When the slick stuff is underfoot, a little caution and common sense can go a long way.

“It’s just like driving in your car with studded tires,” Browning said. “You can still slide off the road. You can still crash into something.”

That is an experience I hope to avoid this winter. And because of some little bits of metal drilled to the bottom of my shoes, I just might. I have yet to give the screws a test run, but I doubt I will have to wait long. I’m sure it will snow again any day now.

The top three teams and first 20 individuals in each division qualified for the USATF Junior Olympic nationals, set for Dec. 10 in Myrtle Beach, S.C. While no other Central Oregon-based team advanced to nationals, a number of area runners did qualify as individuals, including CORK’s Jack Strang and Canon Settlemier, who took first and second in the sub-bantam boys division. Oliva Brooks (fourth), Ciara Jones (sixth) and Piper Flannery (ninth) finished in the top 10 in the midget girls division, as did CORK’s Allie Bowlin (fifth) and Tefna Mitchell-Hoegh (sixth) of Redmond Oregon Running Klub in the intermediate girls.

Duncan McGeary, 59, greets customers from behind the counter at Pegasus Books. The longtime bookstore owner and writer of the blog “Best Minimum Wage Job a Middle Aged Guy Ever Had” has recently returned to fiction writing. At top, McGeary holds his fantasy novels, all published in the 1980s, before he turned his focus to marriage, family and owning his own business.

f all goes right, early next week, Duncan McGeary should hit the fifth anniversary of his first blog post. At least once per day since 2006, the 59-year-old longtime owner of Pegasus Books in downtown Bend has posted to his blog, “Best Minimum

Wage Job a Middle Aged Guy Ever Had.” That’s 365 days a year for five years, which sort of makes him the Cal Ripken Jr. of local bloggers.

McGeary, who published three fantasy novels — “Star Axe,” “Snowcastles” and “Ice Towers” — in the early 1980s, says that blogging is among the reasons he’s been able to recover from 25 years of writer’s block.

After the publication of “Ice Towers” in 1982, McGeary wrote or started writing several more novels, but none was published. In 1983, McGeary got married, and much of his energy went into his family, consisting of wife Linda and two stepsons.

He also began pouring his creativity into his bookstore, which he bought from Dark Horse Comics founder Mike Richardson in 1984.

“He has a tendency to see the necessary thing and just go with it,” says wife Linda. “I don’t think he was feeling like a frustrated writer so much as he just said, ‘This is not the time for that. I have to make a living.’”

Now, McGeary is nearing completion of the first draft of his new novel, his first in decades. Its working title: “I’m Only Human.”

“I took a break, never thinking it would last this long,” he says.

Bend childhood McGeary was 3 when his family moved from Portland to Bend in the 1950s. His deceased mother, Eliza-

beth, was the “Libby” behind Libby’s Garden, a small flower garden next to Mirror Pond Gallery, and his retired father, George D. McGeary, worked at St. Charles Bend as the town’s first full-time pathologist, raising a bright brood that included Duncan, his brother, Michael, and three sisters, Betsy, Susan and Mary Catherine, who is deceased.

Always an avid reader, Duncan McGeary discovered J.R.R. Tolkien’s “The Lord of the Rings” books at age 12. According to wife Linda, “That’s really where his writing desire comes from. His desire to tell a story that would entertain people.”

Hair color bias has ‘gingers’ seeing red

By Kristin Tillotson (Minneapolis) Star Tribune

MINNEAPOLIS — Patti Stanger, host of “The Millionaire Matchmaker,” is making carrot-tops see red.

Stanger, who has often criticized redheads on the Bravo reality show that sets up rich men with comely women, is the target of a new Facebook protest campaign cheekily called “We’re the 2 percent.”

“Redhead discrimination is overlooked, laughed at, and swept under the rug,” writes campaign instigator Erin Roche. It’s an “accepted form of racism.”

That’s not the only example of dissing those blessed with strawberry blond, auburn or flaming orange tresses: In September, the world’s largest sperm bank (Cryos of Denmark) began rejecting redheaded donors, claiming a lack of demand. Television shows including “South Park” and “Glee” have aired episodes poking fun at “gingers.”

Inside It’s even hit the animal kingdom, • Some of history’s as photos of a renowned pitiful-looking redheads, seal pup with abE6 errant russet fur being ostracized by his colony made the rounds online.

Stories of bias against redheads may flare up now and again, but for those who are part of the 2 to 4 percent of the world’s population who have red hair, a pattern seems to hold true — when they’re kids, they’re not always wild about being different. But when they grow up, they wouldn’t trade it for the world.

At the Robertson household in New Brighton, redheads make up 100 percent of the population. Dad Tim is auburn, mom Beth strawberry blonde, and their four children each sport their own hues, ranging from flaming to subtle. To them, the only unusual thing about red hair is the extra amount of sunscreen they go through.

It can get tiresome when they’re all together in public and strangers can’t seem to see past the hair, said 11-yearold Katie, “because we’ll be at a restaurant and people will say, ‘Oh, look, how adorable.’”

The only negative remark directed at her hair she could recall was someone at school saying “it could be a bad omen, but that’s just sad.”

While teasing is common, actual bullying of redheads is much rarer in the United States than it is in England, as well as Down Under, where they are called “rangas” — short for orangutans. Still, all reds have to deal with more than their share of stereotypes — the sexy siren, the goofball clown, the devilish prankster, the bullied weakling.

“Red hair is something you must live up to,” said Marion Roach, author of “The Roots of Desire,” a book on redheads.

An early Christmas presence on TV

By Diane Werts Newsday

Forty-five days before the big holiday, Christmas is all over TV already. Hallmark Channel premiered two holiday movies last weekend, and is starting its round-the-clock “Countdown to Christmas� this weekend, while debuting two more new films.

Bet we’ve never had a TV Christmas so early before.

Um, take that bet. Turns out Hallmark started its nonstop “Countdown� the same time last year. And had a “Holiday Open House� festival of yule movies the weekend before that. The network starts early to make room for an upcoming 1,300 hours of holiday TV. “It’s starting early because the audience is asking for it,� says Hallmark TV program chief Michelle Vicary (who admits it’s also the time the parent company does its big Christmas kickoff in Hallmark stores).

This means Christmas festivity now starts less than a week after Halloween. Commercial pressures? Not only. “I go to the social networks to gauge if we’re doing things right,� says Vicary. “We’ve heard nothing but positive reaction, because they couldn’t wait to see the movies and be in the Christmas spirit.�

Must be true of the households watching ABC Family, too. That channel’s December event “25 Days of Christmas� is now traditionally preceded

by November’s “Countdown to 25 Days of Christmas,� which started Sunday.

You probably can guess why the yule now seems to air endlessly. “From mid-November through December,� says

A & A

Father’s ‘playful touching’ could easily become abuse Dear Abby: A number of things in the letter from “Uneasy in Indiana� (Oct. 21) can be red flags for sex abuse. I have worked in child welfare for 35 years. Abusers often start with “playful touching,� comment about “cute� body parts, continue after being asked to stop, and make power statements that they can touch the child if they want.

If the incident was innocent, why didn’t he recognize that it made his daughter uneasy and immediately stop when asked? “Uneasy� already fears he may accuse her of being a paranoid former victim. Abusers, when confronted, often accuse the other parent of “misunderstanding� or “being crazy.�

They may also accuse the child of misunderstanding the touches or being provocative.

That “Uneasy� and her husband don’t have sex is also of concern — it can mean her husband finds children, not adult women, sexually desirable.

Even if “Uneasy� isn’t sure, she should stop leaving the child alone with him. Take her with her to class, leave her with a friend’s parents or a safe relative. Let the husband know the touching and comments stop NOW — no excuses — and if there’s anything else of this nature she will report it to the authorities.

The time to protect a child is BEFORE something happens.

Children often tell only one time.

If no action is taken, the child won’t tell again! — Seen It All in Texas Dear Seen It All: My thanks to you and the others who wrote to support my advice to “Uneasy in Indiana.� My readers comment: Dear Abby: I’m a clinical social worker who works with sex offenders in a prison. I’m distressed that the husband “truly believed it was OK and didn’t mean ...� Yes, he DID mean to touch his daughter inappropriately. He has begun to groom her for his own sick pleasure.

The key statement in that letter is the girl asked him to stop

DEAR ABBY and he negated her feelings by telling her she “belonged� to him. HUGE red flag! So many offenders I see are infatuated with preteens. “Uneasy� needs to get him to counseling ASAP and never leave her daughter alone with Dad. — Uneasy Therapist in Illinois Dear Abby: That husband is playing with fire. I know.

After my wife died I playfully spanked and patted my daughter’s cute little butt. Her school counselor found out, called child protective services, who called the police, and I was arrested. I wound up serving 2½ years in prison. I’m now on parole and will be on the federal Sex Offender Registry for the next 20 years. That man needs to rethink his actions and get professional help before it’s too late for him or his daughter. — C.R.H. in Kentucky Dear Abby: “Uneasy’sâ€? letter made me sick to my stomach, having endured the same treatment from my father. If it’s not stopped immediately, it will most likely escalate into incest.

The issue is boundaries. Every girl needs them in order to maintain her self-worth, control over her own body and her ability to say “no� without being afraid of offending some guy who wants to treat her like a sex object.

It took years of therapy and work to repair the damage my father caused. This father’s problem should be addressed immediately by a professional therapist. “Uneasy� needs to put her foot down and let him know his behavior will not be tolerated. The daughter needs her mother’s full support. She has a right to feel safe in her own home. — Disturbed in Oregon — Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Horoscope: Happy birthday for Tuesday, Nov. 22, 2011

By Jacqueline Bigar Just when you believe you’ve got it together, surprise! You keep adjusting, growing and changing.

Therein lies stability. Count on change this year. If you are single, the person you meet today you might abhor in a few months.

Don’t commit. If you are attached, understand how very changeable you are and how your feelings will change, too. Don’t judge your relationship; appreciate your sweetie for swinging with the ups and downs.

SCORPIO understands you too well!

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH You can keep a secret, and you will. Be wary of any sharing on your part. Somehow the information is not complete, with a strong indication of more information coming in. Someone who cares enormously, perhaps as a friend, touches base with you. Tonight: Let your imagination decide.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH Others dominate. You would like to do more of what you want.

You can, but at what cost? You might keep pushing people away. Prioritize, and at that point you’ll have answers.

Try not to buck the trends. Tonight: Work as a duo.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH You must bend. You have a lot to do and get through, and you will succeed. Someone you deal with could be overly serious and more open. Keep special news to yourself.

Know that you can respond without letting others know. Tonight: All smiles.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Tap into your creativity, yet honor the fact that you have had enough. How to juggle your needs with others’ remains an issue. Let go of insecurity. You might have a chance to do something you haven’t done in a while. Tonight: Let the fun begin.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Keep conversations open.

Share more of your feelings once you get past a moment of negativity. Your creativity emerges when sharing with others. Opportunities arrive out of the blue, perhaps within a partnership. Tonight: Head home.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22)

HHH You might need to pull back and understand. Sometimes new beginnings happen after a difficult situation. Increase your knowledge and bounce back with a stronger sense of well-being. Late today, your willingness to share emerges.

Tonight: Out and about.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHH Use the daytime to the max.

Do note that you take situations more seriously than necessary. Loosen up a little, and you’ll draw a stronger response. Let your imagination lead.

Look at what comes up. Tonight: Buy yourself a treat.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HH You don’t want to buy into negativity. You could be overwhelmed and feel powerless. Not so; it is simply a mood, which can change in several hours. Postpone important decisions until later today.

Act then, too. Tonight: As you like.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH The Sun moves into your sign today and energizes you. You feel like you can tackle any problems that you recently mulled over. A friend involved with a key project or goal proves to be disappointing. Let go and take some of the pressure off.

Tonight: Be with a favorite person.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHH You are in the limelight and on top of your game. Others seem to go along with an idea you like. The sense of having an impact and agreement makes you very happy. Timing is working with you. Start putting out other ideas. You finally find support late today. Tonight: A discussion could lead to dinner.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHH Keep reaching out for someone at a distance who seems to close you off more often. Try not to take this person’s behavior personally, and listen to what is being shared. Wonder what is happening with this person. Later today, good news follows you. Tonight: Celebrate at home.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Read Aquarius before coming to a decision. There is a lot going on behind the scenes and within a partnership. Let go of judgment, and empathize. Walk in this person’s shoes. You’ll gain understanding when you least expect it. Tonight: Try a movie. Š 2011 by King Features Syndicate

Andy Tullis / The Bulletin

Christopher Rushing, 18, left, and Chad Lucero, 19, both of Bend, are helped with their comic book purchase by Duncan McGeary at Pegasus Books in downtown Bend.

McGeary Continued from E1 His oldest friend, Wes Hare, is now the city manager of Albany. According to McGeary, “Back when I wanted to write, out of high school, in college, he was the one guy that was really, really encouraging to me. He would always say to me, ‘Duncan, you can do it.’”

“He was living in a quad over by the University of Oregon, and decided that he was basically going to lock himself up and write, because he decided he really wanted to write a book, and (he) did that,” says Hare, downplaying the role he may have played. “We were good friends, and I would drop by and see him … and I guess that was support.”

Earlier, at Bend High, he and McGeary, whom Hare calls “Dunc,” may have been, for want of a better term, nerds.

But that depends which one of them you’re talking to.

“He and I don’t necessarily view the past in exactly the same way,” Hare said by phone last week from his Albany office. “In fact, we had this argument not too long ago. He was saying, ‘Oh yeah, we were nerds in high school.’

“I said, ‘What are you talking about? We were both pretty good athletes.’ I was a runner, and he was a skier,” a champion grand slalom skier, Hare adds.

The two had met in a speech class in ninth grade, and became debate partners at Bend High, a partnership that continued at Central Oregon Community College.

“We even debated at Harvard,” says Hare, referring to a competition. “We did OK (there). I think we were, like, three in five. We were up against Ivy League talent, but we beat some of the big schools too, so we did OK.” “Dunc and I, certainly one of the reasons we were friends is that we both liked to read and we talked about books and things. He was a huge fan of Tolkien. He’s the one who got me to read Tolkien,” Hare says.

Writing away depression McGeary says that he graduated from Bend High in 1971 with “major depression,” a nearly 10-year ordeal he’s reluctant to talk about. Nevertheless, after graduating from University of Oregon, he aspired to be a novelist, so he holed up in his student ghetto place and wrote.

“I graduated from college, quit smoking, lost a bunch of weight, wrote the book. So my ego, self-esteem, it all came back,” he says with a chuckle.

“But it was a tough 10 years.”

Writing “Star Axe,” was self-validating and “helped me trust my judgment again,” he said.

After that first book, McGeary moved back to Bend, where he attended the first meeting of the Farewell Bend Writers Roundtable, a critique group.

It was at an early meeting of the group that he met Linda, whose first impression of him was that he was “a good writer and a nice person.”

“I was a big part of it for years,” McGeary says. “And then when I stopped writing, I quit going to the writers group a lot too.”

Much like his marriage, the writing group remains strong

“Writing fiction is much, much harder (than blogging). But once you start writing it, words just come out in all kinds of ways.”

— Duncan McGeary, author, blogger and bookstore owner

after 30 years.

“It’s one of the reasons I’m writing, frankly,” he says. “I started attending writers group more often again, and listening to other people and critiquing other people makes you want to see if you can do it.”

Over the years, McGeary spent a lot of his time perfecting his shop, “which became all-consuming,” he says, That endeavor had a certain amount of creativity to it, and unlike writing genre novels, provided the newly married McGeary with a way to earn a living.

At one point, he’d expanded into other locations, then pared back to focus on the Bend shop, which has expanded well beyond comic books and graphic novels. Pegasus is loaded with action figures, Japanese manga, games, toys and new books, something of an oasis of hipness and geek culture in the middle of the High Desert.

McGeary says it’s probably accurate to call Pegasus a pop-culture store these days.

Judging from the Wednesday afternoon parade of people who look a bit like the kinds of people he and Hare may have hung out with in high school, there are still plenty of comics to be had there as well.

‘Best Minimum Wage Job’ In between a steady flow of regular customers last Wednesday, McGeary, wearing a black T-shirt that reads “Tim Burton’s Oyster Boy,” said he was inspired to begin blogging when he learned of blogs addressing the real estate bubble.

“I was browsing the Internet and I sort of caught a reference to bubble blogs in about the middle of 2006,” he said. “And I thought, ‘Wow, that’s what I think it is. It’s a big housing bubble.’”

He next Googled local blogs and discovered there were bloggers in Bend also addressing the bubble.

“We talked back and forth, and then I said, ‘I’m going to go start my own blog, and I’m going to call it the ‘Best Minimum Wage Job a Middle Aged Guy Ever Had.’” “I was joking,” he said, but once he learned how easy the software would make the process, he went for it. “Not knowing any better, I didn’t do it anonymously.”

McGeary wanted to keep it simple, posting no photos or hotlinks, and he never stuck solely to real estate posts.

“I want to talk about a lot of subjects, so the idea of having a focused blog, where you just write about one subject in order to attract a certain type of reader? I never wanted to do that.”

Topics he writes about on “Best Minimum Wage Job a Middle Aged Guy Ever Had” since 2006 include his thoughts on books, movies and other staples of pop culture; the comings and goings of downtown businesses; the frequent closures of downtown streets for special events; and the art of getting his own business just right.

Since working out the initial

technological kinks — his first post was Nov. 26, 2006, but he couldn’t post again for two days after that — he’s blogged every day, 365 days a year, for five years.

“That’s probably the equivalent of five books, in wordage,” he says, “if you figure every day was one page. But it’s different. Writing fiction is much, much harder. But once you start writing it, words just come out in all kinds of ways.”

McGeary says that another reason he began writing fiction again is that the store is on solid footing. As if to illustrate this point, he rings up a purchase for a father and son, then tells them about the shelves that are available for regulars, where he’ll store for later purchase the titles they collect.

Coming back to the conversation, he says that he’s taken a more systematic approach to writing inspired by the work process of blogging daily. He also feels that, over the last 30 years, the publishing game changed considerably. There are new electronic options for publishing and promoting books.

“When I used to send a manuscript off, I called it ‘sending it into the void,’ because it would take six months or a year or two years to get any kind of an answer” from a publisher.

“And that’s frustrating beyond belief.”

‘I’m Only Human’ McGeary says that about a year ago, Jared Folkins, a friend and tech-savvy Pegasus customer, showed up to the writers group having written a sci-fi story with a drunkard of a starship captain whom Folkins had dubbed Duncan McGeary.

“I said, ‘No, no, change the name and write that story.’ The story was really good. I (said), ‘Jared, (finish) this, and when you get published, introduce me to your agent.’”

But Folkins had other thoughts on the way to go about it, seeking promotion piecemeal online to build headway. With a young family, Folkins, 30, has other priorities — much as McGeary did 28 years ago.

But he’s willing to help McGeary cook up a self-publishing scheme for his book.

“Looking at online books and where that medium is going, I think there’s a wonderful opportunity for people … to capitalize on that. And so the goal would be just to gain momentum for Duncan, just using those online resources,” Folkins said.

These plans include releasing a chapter a month via McGeary’s blog for a period, he explains. “Ultimately, content is king. If you’re releasing your content, and you’re gaining traction — people are forwarding it to others — the goal is just to get your name out there.”

Together, they drummed up this “elevator pitch” for “I’m Only Human”: “Cobb, a not-soordinary P.I. in Bend Oregon, is asked by his old friend Senator Hasting to investigate the murder of a local real estate developer. He stumbles upon

a diabolical plot brought on by an ancient evil. And will have to ask all his human and not so human friends to help him try and defeat it. He doesn’t know what worries him more. The fact that he is the only one who can even hope to stop it, or the fact that the evil is older than he is. For few things are.”

Folkins has read McGeary’s first book, “Star Axe,” and four chapters of the new manuscript. He says McGeary’s voice is considerably more seasoned now.

“There are times when I’ve actually laughed out loud, because of the protagonist,” Folkins says. “I think it’s a really good sign, that you’re developing a good voice for your character.”

Pegasus employee Cameron Saunders, 20, says the novel, which is set in Bend, could have a particular appeal to locals. And he likes that the book, despite its fantasy elements, has a human story and a hero at its core.

“I read for escapism,” he says. “If I’m reading to believe that I can accomplish something, then tell me that I can.

Even though the book features a lot of fantastical concepts, it really makes being a human being seem like one of the most important things in the universe, and that’s something everyone, everyone can relate to.”

Over the years that he focused just on selling books, not writing them, McGeary told himself, “The world doesn’t need any more books,” he says.

“But I’ve decided that’s not the point, for me. The point is, I always look back at those first books, and it wasn’t the money I made, which didn’t amount to a whole lot. It was the fact that I met my wife at writers group; I started coming into this store because I was just getting published at the time. So in a way, both my business career and my family life has come from writing.

“It’s the other things you get from writing that matter more.

Not that I wouldn’t like to make some money.”

Continued from E1 “Society expects it. We would never dream of talking about skin color the way we do hair color.”

Angie Heitz, manager of Clubhouse Jager, is comfortable with her nearly glowing locks, shimmering in the late-afternoon light inside the Minneapolis bar — so comfortable, she’s amped up her natural hue with a little dye.

Heitz describes herself as the “typical hot-tempered redhead,” acknowledging that trait could be a self-fulfilling prophecy, but “in my case, it’s genetic.” She also sees a practical bonus to her hair: “My husband can always find me in a crowd.”

Some red-haired men, despite having to deal with less flattering stereotypes than women, still manage to work it to their advantage.

Ric Fohrman, a 51-year-old Plymouth, Minn., auto broker whose orange locks are receding, says it’s made his life more interesting.

“You get teased as a kid, but after that it’s a big plus, because people remember you more readily,” Fohrman said.

Then again, he added, “you can never be anonymous, even when you want to.”

Stereotypes about redheads have their roots in ancient history. They were once not only teased, but also vilified, Roach said. “It was easy to point at a rare thing and say, ‘That’s bad,’” she said.

Judas was frequently portrayed as a redhead. In the first production of “The Merchant of Venice,” the villain Shylock wore a red wig. In a large triptych at St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, Eve is portrayed as blonde in the first two panels, but a redhead in the third, after her disgrace.

Loki, the shape shifter and troublemaker of the Norse gods, also had red hair.

Despite naysayers like Stanger, having red hair is

Redheads of renown Redheads have harnessed their ginger power to make it big in many walks of life, getting recognized for more than their hair.

LUCILLE BALL “Once in his life, every man is entitled to fall madly in love with a gorgeous redhead,” she said. They did, with her.

PRINCE HARRY The Brits pick on gingers — except for royalty’s charming, most eligible bachelor. Who says male reds aren’t sexy?

generally seen as a positive trait these days.

The biggest cross most American redheads have to bear is not having a day go by without someone mentioning the color of their hair.

“It irritated me at age 8, but not at 50,” Fohrman said.

“What cracks me up the most is when they ask if it’s my natural color. But it’s always been such a part of my identity, and it’s falling out. What now?”

GARDEN

The gifts gardeners would give themselves

By Liz Douville For The Bulletin

Are you old enough to know the term “window shopping”? As a child, weeks before Christmas, I would walk downtown with my mother, and we would stop at all the shop windows and ooh and aah over all the items that could go on a Christmas wish list. Those were the days before discount stores. F.W. Woolworth’s 5 & 10 Cent Store and S.S. Kresges held more treasures than you could ever hope to find under the tree, at least in the mind of a 6-year-old. The day would end with a special treat of a rich chocolate malted milk at the deli counter.

I was reminded of those days while observing a woman and a young girl in a local bookstore doing a modern-day version of window shopping. The point of concentration when I spotted them was the calendar section. By the time they finished, I am sure several made it to the wish list as that seemed to be the focus of their conversation.

I checked with some of the graduates of the 2011 Oregon State University Master Gardener class as to what might be on their wish lists.

Although a 2011 graduate, Ken Mallalieu isn’t new to the gardening world. In fact, he was on the OSU 2011 Garden Tour. Mallalieu probably has all the tools he needs to care for his beautiful garden, but as with all gardeners, he is always up for a new design of an old tool or an addition of any tool that will make jobs easier.

The following are some of his suggestions.

One of the items that makes a long day in the garden easier is a kneeler seat. You can sit in comfort on a padded cushion supported by a heavy duty steel frame while doing chores. Turn it upside down and you have a padded kneeler with handles to grab when you are ready to stand.

Tools with ergonomic handles look a little weird, as the kids say, but the shape of the handle is designed to minimize hand and wrist stress.

FOOD

A little something

before you

gorge

By Alison Highberger For The Bulletin

Have you ever thought about why big, multi-course, calorie-laden dinners have hors d’oeuvres before them? Are there any good alternatives to platters of cheese and sourcreamy dips and chips that risk filling people up before they tuck into the main event?

We called National Public Radio’s Lynne Rossetto Kasper for the answer.

She’s an acclaimed cookbook author and the host of The Splendid Table radio program that airs in Central Oregon on Sunday evenings from 6 to 7 p.m. on 91.3 FM. Kasper knows just about everything there is to know about food and dining.

“The idea behind the hors d’oeuvre is to keep your guests busy,” said Kasper, whose latest cookbook is “The Splendid Table’s How to Eat Weekends,” a fun and

fascinating read.

“You’re probably going to serve some alcohol before dinner, and you want to serve something with it so you don’t get into trouble! And, of course, it’s nice to have a little taste of something. You want to pique appetites, get the palate primed, but you don’t want to overwhelm it,” said Kasper.

Simple, light and do-ahead are good words to keep in mind when crafting holiday appetizers.

“I don’t want to spend a lot of time on an hors d’oeuvre when I’m cooking a big meal.

I don’t serve more than three. It can be as simple as bowls of nice olives and interesting nuts. Almonds tossed with a little bit of olive oil, fresh thyme, grated orange rind, coarse salt and black pepper, warmed up in the oven,” she said.

Simple steps you can take to winterize your house

By Leon Pantenburg For The Bulletin

Well, you just can’t put it off any longer: Cold weather is already here, and, if you haven’t done so already, it is time to winterize your house.

We’re not talking about

major renovations at this point, but, rather, some of the things that need to be done to keep your dwelling warm and in good shape throughout the winter.

Winterizing questions get asked every year about this

time, says Toby Bryan, assistant manager of ACE Hardware and Paint in Bend, and there are many small things that can be done that will have a large impact on your comfort and heating bills.

Winterizing starts by elim-

inating drafts and moving air. Most modern windows, Bryan said, are already insulated, and there isn’t much that can be done to improve their performance.

Installing weather stripping around windows or

doors will help reduce some air movement. But if there is a crack, hole or opening around the frame of an older window, Bryan recommends using a non-permanent caulking.

F Make these apps in a snap Whether you’re pressed for time or simply don’t like to spend too much of it preparing for holiday parties, quick and easy appetizers can make entertaining a breeze. Here are six ideas, as easy to customize as they are to prepare.

• Endive and snow peas: Cook the peas in boiling water for about 30 seconds, then plunge into ice water. Drain them and cut them lengthwise into thin strips, then coat them lightly with your favorite dressing. Arrange the slivers atop individual endive leaves. If you’d like, sprinkle with grated Parmesan.

• Stuffed dates: Squeeze pitted dates to open up the cavity where the pit was. Pipe in mascarpone cheese, peanut butter, Nutella or another slightly sweet, creamy filling.

Top with crushed nuts.

• Oven-fried potato chips: Peel potatoes and cut into paper-thin slices. (If you have one, use a mandoline or V-slicer.) Arrange in a single layer on an oiled baking sheet; sprinkle with salt to taste. Bake in a preheated 425-degree oven. Check after 5 minutes and every minute thereafter for signs of browning, then flip each chip and bake for another 5 to 7 minutes or until golden brown in spots.

• Shrimp-stuffed Peppadew peppers: Piquant red Peppadews are sold in jars and from supermarket olive bars.

To make the stuffing, chop cooked shrimp medium fine, then mix with small amounts of finely chopped green onions and minced parsley. Stir in some of the liquid from the peppers or a light, sweet salad dressing.

• Meatballs: Place cooked small meatballs (homemade or frozen) in a slow cooker or in a Dutch oven over low heat.

Cover with an equal mixture of chili sauce and grape jelly; or four parts sour cream to one part prepared horseradish; or your favorite store-bought pasta sauce, barbecue sauce or salsa. Cook over low heat until heated through.

• Zucchini roll-ups: Slice zucchini very thinly lengthwise (a mandoline or V-slicer helps with this step). Cut trimmed fennel into matchstick-size sticks, then drizzle with olive oil and grated cheese. Roll the zucchini around the fennel, securing with toothpicks.

Next week: Tempting mini desserts

Appetizers Continued from F1 In “How to Eat Weekends,” Kasper and her co-author and Splendid Table managing producer, Sally Swift, suggest a variety of meals and ethnic foods that would be fun to cook with family and friends on weekends and holidays.

The book includes food history, stories, shopping guides and the promise of memorable culinary adventures.

In the chapter, “A Vegan Thanksgiving,” a simple hors d’oeuvre of dried figs, apricots and pistachios is on the menu.

“It’s the easiest thing in the world, and they look beautiful.

A bowl of shelled pistachios, plus any kind of dried fruit, is good: apricots, apples, pears, peaches. Add a really nice cheddar, with a little shaved or chopped off. With the pistachios, that combination will knock you dead. I cut up the dried fruit and toss it around so the hint is there — take a nibble. It would look gorgeous.

Just let people nibble,” Kasper said.

Jicama & Mango Sticks in Chile & Lime is another Splendid Table appetizer recipe (see recipe) that would suit a big holiday meal. The veggie and fruit sticks are sprinkled with lime juice and dusted in ground chilies.

“What’s coming with a holiday meal is usually big, rich flavors. Jicama and mango — what a great way to freshen things up. I’d do the exact same thing with radishes: something with a bit of a kick.

If you’re using mangoes, you want them a little under-ripe.

You want that crunch. The chili doesn’t have to be searingly hot. Add some coarse salt, and you’re home free,” she said.

An easy do-ahead cheese hors d’oeuvre is Kasper’s Jumble Cheese (see recipe), inspired by an interview with master chef Jacques Pepin.

“Jumble Cheese is so ridiculously simple. It’s the French version of the cheese ball. Take odds and ends and bits and pieces of cheese, and the French can never leave that alone: Mix in a little bit of decent wine, port or Madeira. Use any combination of cheese,” Kasper said. Mix it up in a food processor with a little fresh garlic and freshly ground pepper. Voila! You have a delicious, simple and frugal appetizer.

in the hour or so before everyone sits down at the table.

“Serve starters that really spark the palate,” said Kasper.

“That’s the goal of an hors d’oeuvre, to set you up and pique your appetite. You can overdo it with a cheese tray.

It’s better to end the meal with cheese. I don’t want to fill up with cheese before I sit down.”

Holiday hors d’oeuvres from two local chefs Ariana Fernandez, chef and owner of Ariana Restaurant in Bend, told us that a classic chilled shrimp with cocktail sauce is always served at home on important holidays.

“Shrimp cocktail is a really great appetizer before a big meal for a few reasons: It’s easy to prepare ahead, you can set out a big bowl on ice and let everyone slowly pick at it, and it wakes the palate without being too filling,” Fernandez said.

“As far as appetizers at

Definition Hors d’oeuvre means a small appetizer that is served before a meal.

The term is used for both the singular and plural forms because it translates literally as (dishes) “outside the work (meal)” and no matter how many dishes there are, there is only one “work.”

Ariana Restaurant, my all time favorite is the carpaccio. It’s seared and thinly sliced peppercrusted beef tenderloin with truffle oil, horseradish crème fraîche, Parmigiano Reggiano and scallions,” she said.

Kristin Yurdin, chef and owner of Terrebonne Depot, told us she likes to serve her recipes for Baked Pears Stuffed with Gorgonzola and Pecans and Grilled Figs with Crater Lake Blue Cheese and Orange Honey before holiday meals because a lot of the work can be done ahead, and “they have a lot of flavor without overfilling the guests.”

These appetizers are special

because of their appearance, too. “They’re pretty and festive.

I’ve had people say, ‘These pears are really fun.’ They get excited about the food, but aren’t overindulging, because they know they will be overindulging,” said Yurdin.

The appetizers at Terrebonne Depot are substantial. “They’re meant for sharing, and could almost be a meal,” Yurdin said.

Her current favorite appetizer at her restaurant is Pork Belly Lettuce Wrap: local house cured pork belly served with butter leaf lettuce, hoisin sauce, cashews, jalapeños, lime, cilantro and cucumbers. “We slow cook our pork belly, and it just melts

Jicama & Mango Sticks in Chile & Lime Makes 4 to 6 servings.

These are best cut no more than 6 hours ahead and refrigerated (put the jicama in water to keep it from browning.) Season shortly before serving.

1 med jicama (about 1 lb), peeled and cut into ½-inch by 3-inch sticks 2 med firm ripe mangoes (about 1½ lbs), peeled, cut into ½-inch by 3-inch sticks

Juice of 1 med lime Generous pinch of salt About 1 tsp ground pure chili, medium to hot, depending on your taste

Spread out the jicama and mango sticks and sprinkle with the lime juice. Then dust them with a little salt and the ground chili, turning the pieces so each side gets a bit of seasoning.

Serve them clustered in paper cones or small glasses.

My Dad’s Cocktail Sauce for Shrimp Makes 6 servings.

This recipe is from Ariana Fernandez’s dad, Glenn Asti.

1 lg onion, finely minced 3-4 ribs celery, finely minced 1½ C ketchup 1 TBS Worcestershire sauce 3 TBS lemon juice

4 TBS horseradish (more if you like it extra spicy) 1 tsp garlic powder Salt and pepper to taste 1 lb shrimp (see note below)

Mix ingredients in a bowl and serve with chilled cooked shrimp.

Note: You have some options with the shrimp. You can choose from a few sizes and can buy either fresh or frozen shrimp or pre-cooked as well.

If you want to cook your own shrimp, I recommend buying raw 16-20s (which refers to the number of shrimp per pound). Devein each shrimp by running a paring knife lightly down the back and pulling out the vein. Drop the deveined shrimp into heavily salted boiling water for about 5 minutes or until the shrimp are opaque throughout. Don’t overcook or they will become rubbery. Then drain the shrimp and place in an ice water bath to rapidly chill. Strain and keep the shrimp in the fridge until ready to serve.

Grilled Figs with Crater Lake Blue Cheese and Orange Honey Makes 6 to 8 servings.

12 figs (Mission figs or Brown Turkey figs) Extra-virgin olive oil Rosemary skewers (approximately 5 inches long) 1 C honey Zest and juice from one navel orange 1 C Crater Lake Blue Cheese, crumbled Mixed greens or mache Preheat barbecue to 475 degrees. Brush whole figs with olive oil. Grill figs on all sides (about 2 minutes per side). Cool completely. This can be done the day before.

Keep grilled figs in the refrigerator.

Whisk honey, orange zest and juice in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and remove from the heat. Cool completely and set aside. Do not refrigerate.

Preheat oven to 475. Carefully cut grilled figs in half. Using one rosemary skewer per fig, thread each half on a skewer. Arrange skewers on a sheet pan. Place in oven for 5 minutes.

Arrange mixed greens on a serving platter or individual plates. Place fig skewers over greens. Scatter blue cheese crumbles over the figs and drizzle honey over the top.

Jumble Cheese Makes about 1 cup.

This simple and distinctive recipe, born of wartime thrift and ecology, came to us via an interview with master chef Jacques Pepin. Here you use those typically disdained ends and bits of leftover cheeses. Worked into a blend of crushed garlic, black pepper, and, of course, having a French heritage, a little wine, the cheese becomes an astonishingly fine spread. Stored in the fridge for as long as it lasts, it ripens as the days go by.

— Lynne Rossetto Kasper and Sally Swift

Makes 6 to 8 servings.

6 to 8 sm red D’Anjou pears (approximately 2½ to 3 inches tall) ½ C pecan halves 1 C Gorgonzola cheese (I prefer Oregonzola from Rogue Valley Creamery)

2 C wild arugula ¼ C balsamic vinegar ½ C extra-virgin olive oil Salt and pepper Crackers (I prefer La Panzanella flatbread crackers)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Using a small paring knife, carefully cut the base of the core out of each pear. Keep the base. You should end up with a half-inch hole in the bottom of each pear. Use a ½-inch or smaller melon baller and scoop out the remaining core of the pear as well as part of the pear flesh. There should be a cavity of approximately 2 inches long by 1 inch wide on the inside of each pear. Try to keep the opening at the base of the pear a half-inch.

Place pecans in a food processor and coarsely chop. Add the gorgonzola cheese and process until the nuts and cheese are well mixed. Take the cheese-nut mixture and carefully pack it into each pear, making sure not to have any air pockets. Place the bases of the pears back over the holes. The base should be pressing into the bottom of the cheese mixture. Clean off any cheese mixture on the outside of the pear.

Stand the pears on their bases on a baking sheet. Place in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. While the pears are baking, make the vinaigrette.

Slowly whisk the olive oil into the balsamic vinegar. Add salt and pepper to taste. Lightly toss the arugula with the vinaigrette. Arrange bed of arugula on a serving platter.

Remove the pears from the oven and snuggle them into the arugula bed. Serve with crackers.

Do-ahead tip: Pack the pears with cheese-nut mixture the day before and keep in refrigerator.

— From Kristin Yurdin, chef and owner of Terrebonne Depot, (www .terrebonnedepot.com, 400 N.W. Smith Rock Way, Terrebonne, 541-548-3030)

2 garlic cloves ½ lb mixed cheeses, rinds removed and cut into 1½- to 2-inch chunks ¼ to ½ C dry wine (see note) Freshly ground black pepper With the food processor running, drop in the garlic to mince.

After a few seconds, turn off the machine and scrape down the sides of the bowl. Then add the cheeses, wine and pepper to taste. Process for 30 seconds, or until the mixture is creamy, but not too soft.

Pack the spread into small jars or crocks, cover, and refrigerate.

Bring to room temperature before serving.

Note: Remember, this is a recipe of remainders, so a few spoonfuls of brandy, port, or other flavorful alcohol could easily stand in for the wine or be added with it. Nearly any cheese combination flies in Jumble Cheese, but for starters, think about balancing the sharp, pungent and deliciously funky with the mild, creamy, and fresh.

ON THE SIDE

A cure for the vegetable blahs

By David Tanis New York Times News Service

We think of the Thanksgiving menu as something all Americans have in common, but there are so many variables it’s impossible to say with certainty what constitutes the average menu.

Regional tastes can be an influence, but so can family traditions. For many, the holiday just wouldn’t be complete without their favorites.

Nostalgia being what it is, there does seem to be a lingering craving for marsh-

mallow-topped sweet potatoes and gluey green bean casseroles topped with something crunchy. And maybe that’s OK. But these days, I would like some side dishes that add interest to the otherwise relatively bland (and unrelentingly rich) Thanksgiving table. I want vegetables so flavorful they could nearly double as condiments.

Here are a couple of dishes that fall into that category, made from common, humble vegetables.

Roasted Squash with Pancetta and Sage Makes 8 to 10 servings.

Thanksgiving turkey takes center stage on the table.

24 to 48 hours to go?

Time to brine (then dry) The San Francisco Chronicle Several years ago, we roasted nearly 40 turkeys in our test kitchen and found a brined turkey to be the best. In retesting the recipe the last two years, we found it works best when paired

with an air-chilled method.

Air chilling may take up some space in the refrigerator, and adds an extra day, but it results in concentrated flavor and juicy meat.

3 lbs peeled butternut, kabocha or Hubbard squash Salt and pepper 3 TBS olive oil

4 oz thinly sliced pancetta, cut crosswise in small strips 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped 12 sage leaves, roughly chopped

Heat oven to 375 degrees. Cut the squash into 1⁄2-inch cubes and put them in a large bowl. Season generously with salt and pepper, then drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and toss to coat.

Spread the squash on a baking sheet in one layer and roast for about 20 minutes or until lightly browned and cooked through. (You may need to turn the pan several times for even browning.) Remove, and cool to room temperature on the baking sheet.

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the pancetta and cook until barely crisp, about 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in the garlic and sage. Spoon the pancetta, garlic and sage evenly over the squash.

With a spatula, carefully pile the squash into an oven-proof serving dish. If not serving immediately, keep at room temperature for 2 to 3 hours; or cover and refrigerate, then bring to room temperature, before reheating in a 400-degree oven for 10 minutes.

Best-Way Brined Air-Chilled Turkey Cauliflower with Curry Butter

Makes 6-8 servings, with leftovers.

Makes 8 to 10 servings.

21⁄2 gallons cold water 2 bay leaves, torn into pieces 1 bunch fresh thyme 1 head garlic, cloves separated, smashed and peeled

1 turkey, about 12 lbs FOR THE BRINE: 1 C sugar 11⁄2 to 13⁄4 C kosher salt

Remove giblet bag and neck from turkey, along with any extra internal fat and pin feathers. Rinse well under cold tap water. Combine sugar, salt and water in a stockpot. Stir until sugar and salt dissolve. Add remaining brine ingredients.

Ice-chest and bag method: Double-bag two heavy-duty, unscented trash bags (not made of recycled materials) or use a purchased heavyduty brining bag. Put them in an ice chest that is large enough to hold the turkey. Place the turkey in the bag, and pour in the brine to completely cover the bird. You may not need all the brine. Press out the air; if using two bags, close each separately. Keep turkey cold by piling bags of ice over and around the closed bags, which will also help keep the turkey submerged. Brine for 12 to 24 hours.

Refrigerator method: Place the turkey and enough brine to cover in a large pot. Refrigerate for 12-24 hours. If turkey floats to top, weight it down with a plate and cans to keep it submerged in brine.

To air-dry: After brining, rinse the turkey and pat dry with paper towels.

Place the turkey in a roasting pan or rimmed baking sheet. Refrigerate, uncovered, 12 to 24 hours. Turn the bird over halfway through drying time.

Quick air-dry method: Rinse the brined turkey and pat dry, inside and

butter for basting 11⁄2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper 1 ⁄2 C chicken stock plus more as needed

out. Vertically place tail side down on a rack set inside a roasting pan.

Place turkey in front of a small fan set to medium for about 20-30 minutes; turn the turkey to dry the opposite side. Finally, place turkey on the rack, breast side up (positioned for roasting). Continue to dry with the fan, turning the turkey around once to dry the opposite end. The turkey can be roasted immediately.

Roasting: Preheat oven to 400. Spread 2 tablespoons softened butter over skin. Sprinkle pepper over skin and in cavity. Tuck wing tips under, loosely truss legs and place turkey on a V-shaped rack in a roasting pan.

Tent breast with foil.

Put the turkey in the oven. To ensure that the bird cooks evenly, rotate roasting pan 180 degrees every 30 minutes. Roast for about 1 hour, remove foil and baste turkey with 1⁄2 cup stock. Return to oven and roast, basting with pan drippings every 20 minutes, using more stock as needed.

Start checking internal temperature after about 1 hour by inserting an instant-read thermometer in the inner meatiest part of the thigh, not touching the bone. If legs or breast begin to get too brown, cover loosely with foil. Roast until internal thigh temperature reaches 165. Total roasting time should be about 2 to 23⁄4 hours. Let bird rest for at least 20-30 minutes before carving.

3 lbs cauliflower Salt 4 TBS butter 1 ⁄2 tsp turmeric 1 ⁄8 tsp cayenne 1 ⁄4 tsp black pepper 1 ⁄8 tsp nutmeg

⁄8 tsp cloves 2 tsp grated fresh ginger, or 1 ⁄2 tsp dry ginger 2 TBS snipped chives 1 TBS fresh lime juice, or to taste

With a paring knife, cut the cauliflower into tiny florets, as small as possible. You should have about 8 cups.

Meanwhile, bring a large pot of well-salted water to a boil. Working in batches, cook the florets for 1 to 2 minutes, until just cooked but still firm. Drain well and blot on kitchen towels, then cool.

Melt the butter in a small saucepan and stir in the turmeric, cayenne, black pepper, nutmeg, cloves and ginger. Put the cooled cauliflower in a large bowl and season lightly with salt. Drizzle the butter over it, toss gently and transfer to an oven-proof serving dish.

The cauliflower can be kept at room temperature for 2 to 3 hours until serving time, or covered and refrigerated then brought to room temperature. To serve, heat in a 400-degree oven for 10 minutes.

Sprinkle with chives and lime juice.

Sprouts for a crowd Detroit Free Press Brussels sprouts are either loved or loathed, but at Thanksgiving they show up on many suggested menus.

1 dough, 5 shapes of dinner rolls (Minneapolis) Star Tribune Using some oil along with the butter makes your rolls especially plush, while still preserving their butteriness.

As for instant potato flakes, added to dough recipes, they provide another level of flavor, and also make an especially tender bread.

To make various shapes Cloverleafs Divide the dough into 16 pieces. Divide each piece into thirds. Roll each piece into a small ball, then place 3 balls in each cup of lightly oiled muffin pans. (Pour water into any empty cups before baking.)

Fan tans Divide dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll one half into a 10inch square. With a sharp knife or pizza cutter, cut dough into 4 equal strips. Brush each strip with butter, then stack them. With a sharp knife, cut stack into 8 equal pieces, then place each piece on edge in each cup of lightly oiled muffin pans. Repeat with remaining dough.

Crescents Divide dough in half. On a lightly floured surface, roll one half into a 10-inch circle. Cut into 8 wedges. Starting at the widest end, roll up each piece, taking care to tuck the “tail” under when placing it on a baking sheet lightly oiled or covered with parchment paper.

Knots Divide dough into 16 pieces. Roll each piece into a 10-inch strand.

Make a loop halfway up the strand, bringing the “tail” up through the hole. Bring the other end over the loop and tuck it inside the knot.

Place on baking sheet lightly oiled or covered with parchment paper.

Snails Divide dough into 16 pieces. Roll each piece into a 10-inch strand.

Wind up the strand to form a spiral, tucking under the outside end.

Place on baking sheet lightly oiled or covered with parchment paper.

Dinner Rolls Makes 16.

1 C milk (not skim) 2 TBS butter, cut in small pieces 2 TBS oil 3 C all-purpose flour 2 tsp instant yeast (see note) 1¼ tsp salt

3 TBS light brown sugar, packed 1 ⁄3 C instant potato flakes 1 TBS butter, melted, if making fan tans 1 egg Sesame seeds, poppy seeds or coarse salt, if desired

Heat the milk in a small saucepan over low heat until you can just comfortably swirl your fingertip in the milk. Remove from heat and add butter and oil. Set aside.

In a mixing bowl, combine flour (fluff it up before spooning into a measuring cup, then level with a knife), yeast, salt, brown sugar and potato flakes. Using a mixer or by hand, stir in the milk mixture, beating until the dough comes together and “cleans” the sides of the bowl.

Scrape dough onto a very lightly floured countertop and knead by stretching half the ball of dough away from you, then folding it back upon itself. Give the dough a quarter-turn and repeat, stretching, folding and turning until the dough becomes smooth and springy, about 4 to 5 minutes. Try not to add any additional flour as that will make your rolls tough.

If necessary, dust only your hands with flour. Place dough in a bowl sprayed with cooking spray, cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for an hour; the dough will look puffy.

Shape rolls as directed below, cover with a light cloth and let rise about 45 minutes until puffy.

For a glossy crust, brush with 1 egg beaten with a teaspoon of water.

Sprinkle with sesame or poppy seeds, or a few grains of coarse salt, if desired. Bake on the middle rack of a preheated 350-degree oven for 18 to 20 minutes, or until golden. Cool on wire rack.

Note: Instant yeast may be called rapid-rise or bread machine yeast.

and Rosemary is a good recipe for those who typically shy away from the tiny cabbage-like vegetable.

You can prep and assemble the dish several hours in advance.

Pan-Roasted Brussels Sprout Gratin with Shallots and Rosemary Makes 8 servings.

1½ lbs Brussels sprouts, trimmed 4 TBS unsalted butter 2 lg shallots, halved 1¼ tsp kosher salt, divided ½ tsp fresh ground pepper 1¼ C heavy whipping cream 1¼ C (about 3 oz) finely grated Gruyere

¼ tsp freshly grated nutmeg 1 ⁄8 tsp cayenne, or less to taste ¾ C panko bread crumbs ½ C finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano or Parmesan cheese 2 tsp finely chopped fresh rosemary

Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat the oven to 375 degrees. In a food processor fitted with the slicing blade, slice the Brussels sprouts and shallots.

In a 12-inch oven-safe skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Continue to cook the butter until it begins to brown and smell nutty. Set aside 1 tablespoon of the browned butter in a medium Regina H. Boone / Detroit Free Press bowl.

Add the Brussels sprouts, shallots, 1 teaspoon salt and the pepper to the pan and toss to combine. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the Brussels sprouts and shallots begin to soften and brown in spots, about 6 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat.

Meanwhile, in a 2-quart saucepan over medium heat, combine the cream, Gruyere, nutmeg, cayenne and remaining ¼ teaspoon salt. Heat until the cheese is melted, whisking occasionally, about 4 minutes. Do not boil. Add the sauce to the Brussels sprouts, carefully stirring to combine.

Add the panko, Parmigiano, rosemary and a pinch of salt to the reserved butter and mix thoroughly. Top the sprouts with the panko mixture.

Bake until the crumbs are browned and the Brussels sprouts are tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Let cool for about 5 minutes before serving.

For a more formal presentation, transfer the Brussels sprout mixture to a 12-inch-wide, 1½-inch-deep ceramic baking dish before topping with the panko and baking.

Smokehouses, bomb shelters and outhouses

How to safely clean your gutters Whether you’re cleaning your gutters or inspecting your roof, ladder safety must come first.

Gutter

• Oddball spaces are still around

By Kathleen Lynn

Do not carry tools in hand; use a tool belt.

The (Hackensack N.J.) Record

HACKENSACK, N.J. — There are certain spaces that home buyers crave, like giant kitchens and expansive walkin closets.

And then there are the spaces that turn up unexpectedly, especially in some older homes — spots like bomb shelters, smokehouses and outhouses.

These can open a window into history, giving a fresh sense of how people once lived. The bomb shelter recalls a time when Americans feared nuclear attacks from the Soviet Union, and imagined how to survive in a scorched landscape. The smokehouse tells of a time when Americans didn’t buy their meat at the supermarket, but butchered it and smoked it to preserve it.

And the outhouse tells about life before indoor plumbing, when … well, you know.

Quite often, homeowners find new uses for oddball spaces.

Tom Johnson of Liberty 100 Realty in Waldwick, N.J., recalls selling a house where a secret staircase connected a closet on the first floor with a closet on the second. The owner lined up her shoes on the steps.

A Ridgewood, N.J., Tudor listed by Beth Freed of Prominent Properties Sotheby’s International Realty includes an elevator, which the owners use as a linen closet.

Bomb shelters Old bomb shelters are sometimes converted to wine cellars. Ruby and Bobby Kaplan, of Teaneck, N.J., store old clothes, toys and household items in theirs. In Bobby Kaplan’s words, it’s “a nice, cool place for junk.”

The shelter is a surprise in the Kaplans’ large stucco house, which has been so extensively renovated it looks nearly new. (The seven-bedroom home is on the market for just under $1.5 million because the Kaplans’ three children have grown. Ruby Kaplan, a real estate agent with Vera & Nechama Realty in Teaneck, is listing the home.)

metal tunnel, which leads beneath the lawn to the outside.

Bobby Kaplan recalls that when the couple first moved into the house, he was in the yard with the dog when the dog suddenly vanished. He had fallen into the bomb shelter tunnel, which the family later closed up.

Bomb shelters were built in the 1950s and 1960s as places to escape nuclear fallout. A photo from the National Archives shows a cozy model, with a table covered by a checked cloth, two neatly made bunk beds, and shelves stacked with canned food.

Magazines are piled on the table, to help pass the time underground.

And in 1960, Popular Mechanics magazine offered readers advice on how to build a shelter, saying: “An underground shelter having at least three feet of earth or sand over it, plus adequate door and air filter, will give you almost complete protection.”

Nickie Lisella’s Allendale, N.J., house came with a bomb shelter.

“I thought it was cool when we first saw it,” says Lisella, a manager with Terrie O’Connor Realtors in Allendale. “I figured if anyone dropped a bomb, we could save our family.”

Extra space Buyers often are drawn to extra spaces, especially if they’re big enough for a variety of uses. Ann Matri, a Coldwell Banker agent in Saddle River, N.J., recently listed an 1890 two-bedroom house in Midland Park that sold almost immediately, and over asking price, largely because it included a small backyard stone building with a potbellied stove. It was originally used as a summer kitchen, when it was too hot to cook indoors. The buyer plans to use the space, roughly 12 feet by 14 feet, as an art studio.

“I advertised it for hobbyists, artists, musicians,” Matri says. “I can’t tell you how many people came. A lot of

people like to have some sort of studio or a little privacy.”

Wanda and Larry Finch’s 200-year-old, six-bedroom Dutch colonial in Maywood, N.J., has several unusual spaces, including a walk-in hearth in the kitchen.

The hearth was once a traditional fireplace, but when people began cooking with wood-burning stoves instead of open fires, the homeowners removed the top of the fireplace to fit in a stove, says Larry Finch, an engineer who has studied the home’s construction.

The house, known as the Romaine-Oldis-Brinkerhoff house for three early families who lived there, also is decorated with tiles left by a 20th-century owner, Ernest Bilhuber, who founded the Maywood Tile Works.

One series of tiles, on a mantelpiece, shows scenes from Shakespeare plays.

Outside, there’s a stone smokehouse, now used as a garden shed. Smokehouses were used to preserve pork after pigs were slaughtered, typically in December, according to an article by Michael Olmert in the Colonial Williamsburg Journal. First, the fresh meat was packed in salt to remove most of the moisture; then the meat was hung above a fire that smoldered in the smokehouse for a week or two.

“The result is dried, longlasting, smoke-flavored meat that will age in the same smokehouse for two years before it’s eaten,” wrote Olmert, an expert on colonial outbuildings, and author of a book called “Kitchens, Smokehouses and Privies.”

The old A.A. Terhune house, a 1815 Federal-style building in Mahwah, N.J., includes a two-seater outhouse.

The tiny building is now painted white, with cheery yellow trim and is hung with birdhouses and used to store garbage cans.

The outhouse is just one of many historic details at the home, including wide plank floors and original ceiling beams.

Winterize Continued from F1 “The best idea might be to caulk a window shut during the winter,” Bryan said. “In the spring, you can remove the caulking, and it won’t have hurt anything.”

While houses in Central Oregon vary widely, he added, there are a few tasks that anyone can do to improve their home’s heating efficiency.

• Put foam plugs in the foundation vents: The air circulates underneath your house through vents in the concrete, Bryan said, and during the hot months, that flow keeps the house cool and discourages mold from forming. In the winter, that air flow must be stopped.

“The cold air will come up through your floor, and make your whole house colder,” Bryan said. “It can also cause the pipes underneath your house to freeze.”

• Insulate the pipes: Insulate every water pipe under the house, even if it is a hot water line, Bryan says, because a cold snap will cause an uninsulated pipe to freeze, break and spray water all over everything.

On Bend’s west side, he added, many of the homes are older, and the pipes are copper. Copper cools rapidly in the breeze, he said, and will freeze faster than some PVC or other pipe materials.

“The interior damage caused by broken pipes can be huge,” Bryan said. “You’ll end up having to fix or replace things damaged by water, replace the broken pipes, and insulate them. It’s best to just insulate the water pipes and not worry about them.”

• Put insulated covers on the outside faucets: Even if you have frost-free faucets that shouldn’t freeze, Bryan says, the covers will prevent more cold from being absorbed into the house. While you’re at it, make sure to take the hose off the outside faucets, he added, because the hose can hold water, which will freeze and could cause the faucet to freeze.

• Put weather stripping around doors and windows:

Be sure to clean your gutters. Gutters with leaves and debris will slow down water flow and could cause water to freeze, possibly damaging the gutters and the roof.

Sealing drafts will help keep the house warm and lower heating bills. Another good idea, Bryan said, is to use “door socks,” which are long rolls of an insulated material that are placed in front of doors or windows to stop air flow.

“Check under your sink to see if there is a large hole where the pipes come in,” he added. “In some houses, that hole will bring in cold from outside. Insulate it and stop the draft.”

• Make sure your garage door is cleaned and lubricated before it gets cold: A non-lubricated garage door can freeze in place, or maybe worse, wide open. Lubricating the chain and hinges with a garage door lubricant will keep the door from attracting moisture into the moving parts and

freezing.

• Clean the gutters: Gutters with leaves and debris will slow down water flow and could cause water to freeze.

This can cause damage to the gutters and roof. Clean the gutters now, so snowmelt will drain off the roof quickly.

• Have your furnace inspected and change the filter: In Central Oregon, Bryan said, furnace filters should be changed about every three months. Failure to do so, he said, could cause the furnace to quit operating.

• Reverse the ceiling fan: By reversing its direction from the summer operation, the fan will push warm air downward and force it to recirculate, keeping you more comfortable.

Where is the odor coming from?

By Alan J. Heavens The Philadelphia Inquirer

The local plumber has no idea where it is coming from.

If the plumber cannot determine the source, I don’t know what to tell you.

Odd that it happens at those times and hours.

In my experience, sewer gas can emanate from fixtures with a dry trap or a broken seal, and a dozen other things.

Sometimes what we think is a sewer-gas smell is overtreatment of municipal drinking water supplies.

Call another plumber.

I live in a double-wide Q: mobile home. I’m get- A: ting a sewer-gas odor in the bedroom and family room, which are directly across from each other. There is nothing anywhere else in the house.

I notice this in the early morning and late evening, around midnight. I have checked the vent pipes on the roof — no problem. I’ve checked under the trailer, and there is no leakage.

Stucco advice from reader Rick Couche “The best method I have found to paint stucco is to mix white Portland cement and lime, one to one, then add water to produce a heavy, soupy mixture. Apply it with a whitewash brush, adding bluing if you desire a really white look.

“I’ve never attempted to tint the mixture to create a color, but if you are after a great white look this is the best.”

It’s not often you hear of someone who has enjoyed the warmth of the day and the heady scents of Hawaiian blooms say that she loves gardening in Central Oregon.

Mona Shores is that person.

Because of work-related schedules in Hawaii, Shores

took the 10-week OSU Master Gardener course online and is a 2011 graduate.

Shore’s big-ticket item and highest on the list are raised garden beds, which she realizes may take more than one wish list. In the meantime, a long-handled cultivator would help ease the stress of back problems, along with a ratchet pruner to make that chore easier.

Sara Nolte is the owner of Jane of All Trades and with the range of all she does, the items on her list border on the industrial-strength quality.

The first item on her list is a six-tine pitchfork. That shouldn’t be too hard to fulfill. Next is a new pruner, but I would think she would like two — a long-handled ratchet

What it is: “Weeds: In Defense of Nature’s Most Unloved Plants” is a literary and historic spin through a fat bouquet of 12 such botanic vagabonds, so defined because they’ve dared to “obstruct our plans, or our tidy maps of the world,” as author Richard Mabey puts it. You’ll be charmed by what you read, with delights along the alphabetical journey (lovein-idleness, or wild pansy, is one, and we learn that Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” is perchance the only play in the English language whose plot hinges on the potency of a weed).

What makes it armchairworthy: It’s not every day one would be inclined to curl up with pages upon pages on the dreary sub-

ject of weeds, but “Weeds” is the rare exception to the rule. Mabey isn’t hailed as Britain’s “greatest living nature writer” for no reason.

He writes, as he says of the weeds, with “feral beauty.”

And, along the way, stocks our bare cupboard of weed knowledge with a groaning board of little known stories.

In the chapter about burdock, for instance, we listen in on that great English gardener William Robinson’s tirades against the “intolerable regimentation” of Victorian carpet bedding, and then, poof, a few paragraphs later we are reading about the abundance of the prickly weed in so many 17th-century Dutch paintings, discovering that burdock spotting, as sport, is as prevalent as picking out the goldfinches in Italian Renaissance paintings.

New technique boosts some blooms

By Kathy Van Mullekom (Newport News, Va.) Daily Press

NEWPORT NEWS, Va. — New fragrances in flowers add pleasing scents to homes and yards nationwide, thanks to research inspired by horticulturists at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, Va. Lilies, daylilies, azaleas, Hellebores and poppies growing faster and better, thanks to a cutting-edge technique called micropropagation. The method enables scientists at the commercial Dan River Propagation Center in Danville, Va., to clone bio-renewable plants rapidly and reliably so one shoot turns into 10 shoots by the second month, a 1,000 shoots by the third month and 1 million shoots by the sixth month.

One superstar species is a daylily called VT Spirit in the university’s colors of maroon and orange. A limited number of these daylilies in the pre-blooming developmental stages will be available to open house visitors for their gardens, according to a news release.

The center is also propagating a new Icelandic Temptress poppy that would be otherwise extinct. The plant propagation company works with Wollam Gardens — wollamgardens.com — near Culpeper, Va., on the poppy.

“They’re helping me out, otherwise I’d have nowhere to turn,” says owner Bob Wollam. He supplies cut flowers to florists and farmers’ markets in the metro Washington, D.C., and northern Virginia areas, and serves as president of the Association of Specialty Cut Flower Growers.

Temptress seeds were showing weak viability, less than 30 percent, so the flower was dying out.

“We’re saving a flower that wouldn’t exist after this,” he says.

The center is also propagating several species of Hellebores, often called Lenten

rose, for Pine Knot Farms, near Clarksville, Va., where owners Judith and Richard Tyler grow and sell these winter and early-spring bloomers. Learn more about these easy-grow ground covers at pineknotfarms.com. The Virginia Nursery and Landscape Association is also a partner in the propagation process — vnla.org.

The business is the first commercial enterprise spun off from the Institute for Advanced Learning and Research’s Institute for Sustainable and Renewable Resources, which is a collaborative

effort between the Virginia Tech Department of Horticulture and researchers in Danville. The propagation center focuses on culture plant tissue for valuable ornamentals and bio-energy plants that can be converted into fuels, chemicals and plastics.

The bio-renewable plant is a grass called miscanthus, which is a green, renewable raw material for processing into biofuels and bioplastics, according to the institute’s website at ialr.org. It already grows on farmland in southern Virginia and central North Carolina.

Something to drink with your turkey?

By Eric Asimov New York Times News Service

Every year you answer Q : the same questions about which wines to drink with the Thanksgiving feast.

Well, I don’t want to drink wine. What else can I serve with the meal?

Water?

No, I’m joking. While I personally would always choose to drink wine at Thanksgiving, you also have a universe of wonderful alternatives. Let’s start with that emblem of fall, the apple.

Is there anything more direct and pure than the fresh, sweet-tart flavor of apple cider, the nonalcoholic variety?

I don’t mean the clear, pallid mass-market juice that passes for cider in supermarkets, but the dark, cloudy, unfiltered cider that tastes as if you’ve just pulled the best, juiciest, most bracing apple off a tree and crunched into it. It’s great before, during and after, especially if you heat it up. With a half-gallon of cider, toss in a couple of cinnamon sticks and some citrus zest. Add rum and you have a hot toddy.

Personally, I would prefer not to wait until the after-dinner drink for something a little stronger. Hard ciders come in an almost bewildering array of styles, but most are about 5 percent to 8 percent alcohol, around the strength of lager beers.

Pumpkin kept in a can Relishing cranberries Newsday

It is hard to resist the wagonloads of pumpkins on display at farm stands and supermarkets at this time of year.

My front stoop is a testament to their appeal. But bring them into the kitchen? I don’t think so. When it comes to baking a pumpkin pie or pumpkin bread, I choose canned pumpkin puree over fresh any day.

Shelf life It’s true that fresh pumpkins can be stored at room temperature for up to three months. But canned pumpkin, unopened, will hold onto all of

Fish House Punch Makes 15 to 20 servings.

4 C lime juice (about 32 limes), chilled 2 C lemon juice (about 12 lemons), chilled 1 C dark brown sugar 1 C dark rum, chilled 2 C light rum, chilled 1 C brandy, chilled Pour the lemon and lime juices into a large punch bowl. Add the brown sugar and gently stir until dissolved. Slowly add the rums and the brandy, stirring constantly.

Slip in a large block of ice and chill for at least an hour, stirring occasionally. Add ice if necessary.

its nutrients for two years, and is safe to eat within five years of its processing date.

Ease of use If you’ve ever carved a jacko’-lantern, you know how difficult and even dangerous it is to slice into a hard-shell pumpkin. Once you manage to cut around and remove the stem, you have to remove the seeds, slice away the skin, and scrape the pulp from the usable flesh.

Consistency Canned pumpkin is reliably the same in taste and texture, can to can, year after year.

In a small saucepan, sprinkle gelatin over the cold water, and let soften 5 minutes. Cook softened gelatin over medium heat, swirling pan, just until gelatin is dissolved; do not let boil. Let cool completely.

Place pumpkin puree in a large bowl. Stir in softened gelatin, then add egg yolks, maple syrup, nutmeg, vanilla, ginger, allspice, salt, white pepper and rum. Whisk until fully blended.

With an electric mixer on medium speed, whisk egg whites and the sugar to soft peaks. Gently fold egg-white mixture into pumpkin mixture to combine.

Whip heavy cream on medium high to stiff peaks, then gently but thoroughly fold into pumpkin mixture.

Divide mousse among 8 to 10 glasses; refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours, or up to 1 day, covered with plastic wrap. If desired, top each with a dollop of sweetened whipped cream and a pastry leaf before serving.

Cranberry Relish Mold Makes 8 to 10 servings.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Adjust oven rack to bottom third of oven. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil, making sure that foil is tucked into all the corners and that there is at least 1 inch overhanging top of pan on all sides. Spray foil with nonstick cooking spray.

Make brownies: Combine butter and chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on high until almost melted. Whisk until smooth and set aside to cool.

Combine flour, baking powder and salt in a small mixing bowl.

Whisk together sugar and eggs in a large mixing bowl. With a wooden spoon, stir in chocolate mixture and vanilla. Stir in flour mixture until just incorporated. Spread in an even layer into prepared pan.

Make the cheesecake: Combine cream cheese and sugar in a medium mixing bowl. With an electric mixer on medium-high speed, beat mixture until very smooth. Add pumpkin, egg and vanilla and beat again until smooth. Stir in salt, cinnamon, ginger and flour. Scrape cream cheese mixture over brownie batter and smooth with a spatula to create an even layer.

Bake brownies in bottom third of the oven until they are set around the edges but still a little wobbly in center, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool completely in pan on a wire rack.

Cover with plastic wrap, taking care that plastic doesn’t touch surface of brownies. Refrigerate until completely chilled, at least 6 hours. Grasping overhanging foil on either side of pan, lift out brownies and place them on a cutting board. Cut into 16 squares. Pumpkin Cheesecake Brownies will keep in refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 5 days.

Feast’s unsung heroes The Denver Post Don’t forget the under-theradar components of Thanksgiving. They have the power to transform your feast.

• Butter: Butter shows up throughout the meal, from bisque to pie. Don’t just “use up” the stuff at the back of your fridge. Invest a couple of bucks in high-quality butter.

It’s worth it.

• Citrus: Lemon — juice and rind — adds a bright note of

acidity to every dish you add it to. Stuff your bird with halved lemons, add finely grated rind to your gravy, squeeze wedges of lemons over your sweet potatoes, add lemon juice to your apple or pumpkin pie.

• Herbs: Chopped parsley, in ample qualities, belongs on almost every dish: stuffing, mashed potatoes, even over the turkey. Load your stuffing with thyme. Stuff the turkey with sage.
