UO PRESIDENT FIRED

Lariviere out in 30 days

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

PORTLAND — Boos and hisses greeted the news Monday that University of Oregon President Richard Lariviere has only 30 days left on the job.

The state Board of Higher Education voted unanimously Monday afternoon to terminate Lariviere’s contract without cause. The 12-member board, which is charged with overseeing the state’s seven public universities, made the official decision in a room packed with Lariviere supporters, many of whom sported yellow and green shirts reading “We love our prez.”

Students, professors and community members urged the board passionately, and at times rowdily, to reconsider its decision to oust the president.

But board members defended the move, saying Lariviere created a dysfunctional dynamic between himself and the board, continued to push for UO independence despite the board’s insistence that he stop and threatened the well-being of the state’s other universities.

The governor has supported the board’s position, arguing in a statement released last weekend that the decision to fire Lariviere would be “fully justified.”

During the portion of yesterday’s meeting reserved for public testimony, Robert Kyr, the University of Oregon’s Senate president, pointed to Lariviere’s successes in his short tenure.

“He came here ... with a vision that has inspired us all, and he has asked us to dream and develop ourselves beyond what we thought possible,” Kyr said.

The Oregon State Police are investigating the Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office for its handling of a grand jury investigation earlier this year and for the layoff of an investigator this fall.

The Oregon Department of Justice requested the investigation three weeks ago, District Attorney Patrick Flaherty announced in a news release emailed to The Bulletin on Monday afternoon. The police told Flaherty on Monday that they were investigating “a complaint of possible criminal wrongdoing within the Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office,” Flaherty wrote.

Flaherty initiated a criminal investigation of Deschutes County’s top civil attorney, Mark Pilliod, in late February after Pilliod released job applications from recently hired deputy district attorneys to The Bulletin in response to a public records request. Flaherty laid off investigator Sharon Sweet on Oct. 7, citing unspecified concerns about the job and cost increases for information technology.

Flaherty did not return a call for comment, and a spokesman for the Department of Justice was unable to comment on Flaherty’s announcement. The Oregon State Police also did not respond to a request for comment on Monday night. Pilliod said on Monday that he has not been contacted by the police.

The Oregon State Bar is also investigating Flaherty’s actions with the grand jury, based upon an anonymous complaint the bar received in March. Two more anonymous complaints filed with the state bar earlier this month allege that deputy district attorneys who worked for Flaherty also engaged in misconduct related to the grand jury. The bar released the complaints on Monday.

Flaherty wrote in the news release that his office “would cooperate fully with (the police) investigation and that, so long as that investigation was conducted in an unbiased and fair manner, no criminal conduct whatsoever would be found to have occurred within the office in either of these instances.”

King of Pop’s problematic comeback

By Victoria Kim Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — In the film “This Is It,” Michael Jackson is shown as agile and energetic as ever, on the cusp of possibly the greatest comeback in music history.

“We’re all here because of him,” director Kenny Ortega said in the documentary, between images of Jackson lithely floating across the stage and giving commands about how the show is to be run. “May that continue, with him leading the way.”

But a starkly different portrait of Jackson emerged in the six-week criminal trial that ended this month, showing a national audience glimpses of a troubled artist beset by insomnia and anxiety, a series of missed rehearsals and a director mulling the possibility of “pulling the plug.”

The courtroom drama, the final note of which will be sounded with Dr. Conrad Murray’s sentencing today, cast a new light on a question that will be a key part of how Jackson’s last chapter is written.

The Oregon University System blocked a University of Oregon faculty member, who is also a blogger, from attending a state Board of Higher Education executive session Monday.

The executive session, which preceded Monday’s open board meeting, was held to discuss the dismissal of UO President Richard Lariviere.

Oregon law allows journalists to attend executive sessions, which typically are held to shield discussions about sensitive issues such as personnel actions, pending lawsuits and real estate negotiations.

Journalists are prohibited from reporting directly from executive sessions, though state law provides no penalties for doing so.

But who is a journalist? The struggle to define that role has become more pronounced with the rise of new media technology, according to Tim Gleason, dean of the UO School of Journalism and Communication.

A rare isotope helps track an ancient water source

By Felicity Barringer

Mediterranean Sea

New York Times News Service

The Nubian Sandstone Aquifer System, the font of fabled oases in Egypt and Libya, stretches languidly across 770,000 square miles of northern Africa, a pointillist collection of underground pools of water migrating, ever so slowly, through rock and sand toward the Mediterranean Sea. The aquifer is one of the world’s oldest. But its workings — how it flows and how quickly surface water replenishes it — have been hard to understand, in part because the tools available to study it have provided, at best, a blurry image.

Now, to solve some of the puzzles, physicists at the Department of Energy’s Argonne National Laboratory in Illinois have turned to one of the rarest particles on Earth: an elusive radioactive isotope.

Their first success was in distilling these isotopes, krypton 81, from the water in the huge Nubian Aquifer. Their second was in holding these isotopes still and measuring how much they had decayed since they last saw sunlight.

Knowing how long water has been underground helps researchers understand how fast aquifers are recharged by surface water and how fast they move, leading to more accurate geological models. Groundwater is becoming an increasingly crucial component of the world’s available fresh water, and the findings could significantly increase understanding of how it behaves.

Pradeep Aggarwal, who runs the isotope hydrology section of the International Atomic Energy Agency’s water resources program, said that success in tracking older bodies of water had long been elusive.

For years, scientists had relied on carbon 14 dating, which indicated the aquifer was just 40,000 years old. They knew that krypton 81, an isotope present in the open air but not underground, would be a bet-

ter marker for tracking the underground water’s movement.

When water loses contact with air, the radioactive clock starts; the isotope decays by a factor of two every 230,000 years, and the decay is measurable as far back as 2 million years.

But the krypton 81 isotopes were difficult to isolate and even more difficult to catch.

Zheng-Tian Lu, a physicist at the Argonne laboratory, and his colleagues have spent 14 years mastering and extending techniques to slow down atoms.

When Lu realized the potential benefit of isolating krypton 81 isotopes, “I got hooked on the

problem,” he said. “I tried to use the trapping method I’d already learned to try and solve the radio-krypton dating problem.”

The process begins when water is extracted from the aquifer without any contact with air.

Krypton is bled from the water into a vacuum system. Once identified and slowed, the krypton 81 isotopes are trapped by six laser beams focusing on them from the four cardinal points of the compass and from above and below. Then their decay can be measured.

“From this aging information, you are looking at how the water flowed in the long past,”

Cox News Service What would be the consequences if an asteroid the size of an aircraft carrier hit the Earth, either in the ocean or on land?

— Tom Brayton, Sharpsburg, Ga. An asteroid the size of 2005 YU55, which passed within 202,000 miles of Earth earlier this month, would destroy a city the size of Chicago, creating a crater 4 miles wide and 1,700 feet deep, according to scientists at Purdue University.

The collision would be equivalent to a 4,000-megaton blast and a magnitude 7.0 earthquake if it hit land, according to Jay Melosh, an expert in impact cratering and a professor of earth and atmospheric sciences, physics and aerospace engineering at Purdue, said in an article on the university’s website.

The “heat from the fireball would cause extensive firstdegree burns, the seismic shaking would knock down chimneys and the blast wave would shatter glass windows” at least 60 miles from the impact, the article stated. If the asteroid hit the ocean, it would cause a 70-foot-high tsunami within 60 miles of the crash.

Discoveries, breakthroughs, trends, names in the news — things you need to know to start your day.

Lu said. “But it does have implications about how to manage waters today.”

That is where Neil Sturchio, a geologist at the University of Illinois at Chicago, comes in.

He works with the most accepted model of how water flows through the Nubian Aquifer.

“The reason this model was done,” he said, “is that there is an international agreement among the countries that share this water” — Egypt, Libya, Chad and Sudan. “The issue is if Libya is starting to pump on their water seriously and Egypt is doing the same thing in their oasis areas,” what happens to the rest of the aquifer?

The Nubian Aquifer is not exactly running dry; the groundwater in the Egyptian portion alone is estimated to exceed 10,000 cubic miles. Nonetheless, Aggarwal pointed out: “As a result of the drawdown we have dried up the oases in a couple of places. In Libya they have dried up Kufra Lake.” And though the aquifer is huge, its recharge rate, at best, “is measured in millimeters per year,” he said.

In addition, Sturchio said, there remains the question of how best to extract water: “where you put wells, how deep, how close to each other.”

“If you design it the right way, you can get a lot more water without problems,” he went on. “But if you put all the wells in one spot, you could be causing yourself a lot of trouble.”

T S Egyptians wait patiently Occupy Los Angeles Frank to elect their parliament protesters defy eviction says

By Hamza Hendawi and Maggie Michael

An Egyptian voter passes between the hands of soldiers at a polling center Monday in Cairo.

Long lines prompted authorities to extend voting by two hours.

The Associated Press

CAIRO — They waited in long lines for hours to vote, despite a new wave of unrest, fears about a sharply divided society and uncertainty over the nation’s future.

For the millions of Egyptians who cast ballots Monday, the first parliamentary elections since they ousted Hosni Mubarak were a turning point in history — if for no other reason than they were finally getting a chance to be heard after decades of rigged voting.

The outcome will indicate whether one of America’s most important Middle East allies will remain secular or move down a more Islamic path, as have other countries swept up in the Arab Spring.

Since the uprising that forced out Mubarak nearly 10 months ago, Egyptians had looked forward to this day as a celebration of freedom after years of stifling dictatorship. Instead, there has been deep disappointment with the military rulers

who replaced the old regime, and a new wave of protests and clashes that began 10 days before the vote.

The biggest complaint Monday was the long wait, with polling stations opening late or running out of ballots. There also was campaigning outside polling centers in violation of the law.

Even before polls opened at 8 a.m., Cairo voters stood in lines stretching several hundred yards, suggesting a respectable

turnout. Under heavy security from police and soldiers, the segregated lines of men and women snaked around blocks and prompted authorities to extend voting by two hours.

The election will be held over multiple stages, with different provinces taking turns to vote with each round. Voting for the 498-seat People’s Assembly, parliament’s lower chamber, will last until January, then elections for the 390-member upper house will drag on until March.

Supporters of opposition candidate Etienne Tshisekedi display what they claim are badly printed, fraudulent photocopies of election ballots they say they found Monday in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo. Tshisekedi has already declared himself president, and his supporters say they are ready to flood the streets and risk their lives should he lose.

Congo votes amid chaos

By Jeffrey Gettleman New York Times News Service

KINSHASA, Democratic Republic of Congo — Ballot boxes on fire, rebel fighters gunning down poll workers and outbursts of mob violence marred Congo’s national elections Monday, only the second time this vast and troubled country has held anything resembling a democratic vote.

Few here predicted these elections would be easy. President Joseph Kabila, who has been in power for 10 years, is reviled in many parts of the country, and his security forces have already killed many opposition supporters and used a mix of repression and bribery to squeeze out votes.

At the same time, opposition leaders are dangerously stirring up their camps, saying that the elections have been rigged and calling on people to reject the

results. The leading presidential challenger, Etienne Tshisekedi, 78, has already declared himself president, and countless young people who voted for him said they were ready to flood the streets and risk their lives should Tshisekedi lose.

A quilt of thick, dark clouds hung over Kinshasa, the capital, at dawn Monday as election officials stumbled to open polling places on time. Many polling places were missing ballots, countless people vented that they could not find their names on the voting lists and loose ballots were inexplicably lying around deserted offices.

Rumors flew and tempers flared. At the St. George’s School in the center of town, someone shouted out that an election worker was trying to steal votes for Kabila. A mob of young men surrounded him within seconds. They tore off

his blue election commission vest and started slugging him in the face, the cracks of fist on bone ringing out across the schoolyard.

Women screamed, and the election worker was knocked to the ground, where he curled up, absorbing kick after kick. A lone policeman tried to come to the rescue, but the mob quickly swallowed him too, and it was not clear if the election worker survived.

Natalie Noella, a 23-year-old student, said as she left the polls: “What do I fear? I fear death.

No one knows what’s going to happen.”

The worst violence broke out far from the capital. According to election observers, masked rebel fighters attacked a polling place in Lubumbashi, in the southeast. At least five people were killed in the ensuing 45minute gunfight with police.

Woman claims 13-year affair with Cain, who denies it

By Susan Saulny New York Times News Service

An Atlanta woman came forward in an interview broadcast Monday night with details about what she called a 13-year affair with Herman Cain, the Republican presidential contender whose campaign was already struggling to overcome damage from allegations of sexual harassment.

The woman, Ginger White, made the disclosure in an interview with Fox 5 News in Atlanta, becoming the fifth person to accuse Cain of improper behavior. White is not,

however, claiming that harassment took place. Rather, she described what amounted, in her words, to a romance.

“It was pretty simple,” White said. “It wasn’t complicated. I was aware that he was married. And I was also aware I was involved in a very inappropriate situation, relationship.”

White showed the news station some of her cellphone bills that included 61 phone calls or text messages to or from a number she said was for Cain’s private cellphone.

The contacts were made during four months — as early

as 4:26 a.m. and as late as 7:52 p.m. The most recent were in September.

The television station said that it had texted the number White gave them and that Cain had returned the call.

In the call, Cain said that he “knew Ginger White” and that she had his number because he was “trying to help her financially.”

Cain, speaking Monday afternoon to Wolf Blitzer on CNN, acknowledged knowing White, whom he called an acquaintance, but denied having a sexual relationship with her.

efforts, go to court

LOS ANGELES — For now, Wall Street protesters camped out on the Los Angeles City Hall lawn still have their tent city after defying a deadline to pack up and clear out. “Still occupied,” read the sign of a protester up in a tree.

Hours after emerging from a possible confrontation with police largely unscathed Monday, demonstrators turned to the federal courts to keep officers away.

They are arguing that the City Council had passed a resolution in support of Occupy Los Angeles and that the city’s mayor and police did not have the authority to evict them.

The chances that protesters will get an injunction appear slim, constitutional experts say.

Until there is a decision, the tent city’s inhabitants are left to wonder if and when police will push them out — and if there will be the kind of violence that has engulfed evictions in other cities when they do.

City officials said they will only move in on the camp when conditions are safest not just for protesters and officers but also the roughly 100 homeless people who had joined the encampment.

“There is no concrete deadline,” LAPD Chief Charlie Beck said after hundreds of officers withdrew without moving in on the nearly 2-month-old camp.

The effort should come “with as little drama as possible,” Beck told reporters.

Police and protesters have clashed elsewhere in recent weeks, most notably in Oakland, Calif., as officers cleared away camps that officials say have grown more dangerous for public health and safety.

Marine Corps veteran Scott Olsen, whose skull was fractured during an Oct. 25 clash between police and Occupy Oakland protesters, said in his first interview since being injured that he still has trouble speaking but expects to recover completely.

“I am doing much better than when I look at myself a month ago, which was two days after the attack,” Olsen said in a video interview posted Monday on Indybay.org. “I was not doing good. But now I’m doing a lot better.”

In Olympia, Wash., three people were shocked with Tasers and at least three others were arrested Monday as police tried to empty the state Capitol after a day of protests. Earlier, a group shouted down lawmakers on the first day of a special session over $2 billion in budget cuts with chants favoring taxes for the wealthy.

Nine people were arrested in Maine after protesters at an encampment took down their tents and packed their camping gear after being told to get a permit or move their shelters.

Love him or hate him — and there are few who fall anywhere in between — Rep. Barney Frank has spent the past three decades crafting one of Cong re s s’s Frank most pugnacious political personalities.

Frank, whose name as well as fingerprints are on last year’s sweeping bill regulating Wall Street, announced plans Monday to retire at the end of this term, his 16th in Congress.

On the left, the Massachusetts Democrat has been a hero for his effort to rein in the nation’s largest banks and for his role in promoting gay rights, having been the most prominent openly gay member of Congress.

On the right, Frank became a stand-in, alongside Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and the late Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., for attack lines designed to gin up conservative activists.

Frank is the 17th Democrat to announce he will not seek re-election in 2012, when Democrats face an uphill battle to gain the 25 seats they need to win a majority.

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

Casanova Continued from A1 The story of how more than 3,700 pages of Casanova’s papers ended up in one of France’s most prestigious and proper institutions is one that Casanova himself would have loved.

He wrote the memoirs in the last years of his life. Just before his death at 73 in Bohemia in 1798, Casanova bequeathed his papers to his nephew. In 1821 Friedrich Arnold Brockhaus, one of Germany’s most prominent publishers, acquired them from the nephew’s descendants.

It was assumed in literary circles that the documents had been destroyed in the bombing of Dresden in World War II. But they were carried on a bike and hidden in a bank vault in Leipzig. A U.S. military truck drove them to safe-

ty in Wiesbaden.

A complete version was published for the first time in French in 1960, but except for a few scholars with access to the original manuscript, it was forgotten.

Then one day in 2007 the French ambassador in Berlin contacted Bruno Racine, director of the National Library, and told him a mysterious intermediary was prepared to talk about the sale of the memoirs. France was deemed the appropriate destination.

A secret meeting was arranged in a small room in the transit area of the Zurich airport. Thirteen large shallow boxes numbered in gold were laid out on two tables for Racine and his curators.

They contained the handwritten memoirs, as well as a text on a lottery, and a note to the emperor of Austria to end the system of usury and cor-

respondence. The script was often bold and undisciplined.

Words were scratched out and underlined; ink blotches stained some pages.

“I was completely ignorant of the existence of this manuscript,” Racine said in an interview. “It had never been put on display. But there was no doubt it was authentic. It was an unforgettable moment. It was almost as if we were in front of a religious relic.”

A French commission unanimously declared the manuscripts a “national treasure” that needed to be purchased.

But it took almost 2½ years of roller-coaster negotiations with a number of sources before an anonymous donor provided the finances to buy it.

The deal was hailed by the culture minister, Frederic Mitterrand, as the most spectacular acquisition ever made by a French library. At $9.6

million, it was also the most expensive.

The National Library plans to make all the documents available online, and the Gallimard publishing house will begin publishing a multi-volume series of the memoirs in 2013.

Despite his many adventures, Casanova was best known as a libertine. His first sexual encounter, he wrote, was at 11, when he was groped by the sister of his guardian.

During his lifetime he claimed to have seduced 122 women, including a nun.

“As for women, I have always found that the one I was in love with smelled good, and the more copious her sweat the sweeter I found it,” he wrote.

The French are presenting the text as a piece of their cultural heritage and focusing on Casanova as a gifted writer.

Mitterrand had his own brush

Executive Continued from A1 OUS spokeswoman Di Saunders said the system relies on the Oregon Department of Justice’s interpretation of executive session law. The department’s manual on public meeting law says media representatives include “news-gathering representatives of institutionalized news media that ordinarily report activities of the body.”

Saunders said the state board has never before had an instance when it needed to consider whether to allow a blogger into executive session. Still, she said, the board was confident in

Jacques Rousseau.

“Worthy or not,” he wrote, “my life is my subject, and my subject is my life.”

Casanova “always made a point of preserving his independence and never sacrificed it for a woman, a cause or a taste for possession,” the library said in a statement announcing the opening. “The exhibition celebrates sensuality and life, considered as an everlasting feast.”

Racine said that the French authorities did not consider Casanova’s personal morality in their decision to buy the works, adding that they must be placed in their historical context.

“The moral judgment never came up,” he said. “We neither approve nor condemn his behavior. Of course, behavior that was tolerated in the 18th century would be condemned today.”

Lariviere Continued from A1 “He asked the whole system to do this ... What other university president in this country has done something of this magnitude? What other president of a university in this country has led a university, in only 2.5 years, to the heights we are now ascending?”

Those heights include increases in fundraising and student enrollment and retention.

Lariviere said he was “humbled and grateful for the support” and warned the board that “clinging to old structures and ways of doing business will not deliver the outcomes we want.”

Lariviere said the outpouring of support in response to his termination is a sign that Oregonians are frustrated with the state’s system of higher education.

“These people who so love the university, who have such confidence in its potential, who know what it must do for future generations, had hoped that there was change in the air,” he said.

“They see today’s board move as a denial of that change.”

Gov. John Kitzhaber has taken issue with Lariviere’s characterization of the situation as an “ongoing difference of opinion over the future of the University of Oregon.”

Kitzhaber argued last weekend that Lariviere had eroded trust, pointing specifically to his decision to give raises to more than 1,000 administrators and faculty members despite specific direction not to.

Many of those who testified criticized the board for a lack of transparency and said its decision was already made before Monday’s public hearing.

Brian Obie, the former mayor of Eugene and one-time president of the UO Foundation, told the board its responsibility is to the people in the room, not to the chancellor of higher education.

“How many of your minds are made up? Whose comments were prepared beforehand?

This is about leadership,” Obie said. “This is about where we are going with this institution. … What you’re tinkering with here is a world-class organization. This is not an average deal.

You are going to screw it up if you follow this course.”

Laura Hinman, a UO junior, said she felt the board’s decision, arrived at over the holiday and during a dead week, made it hard for her to believe the board was interested in what students thought about the future of their school. More than 6,000 students signed a petition against Lariviere’s firing.

“I ask this board, please be transparent,” she said. “Because as a student, I don’t understand why this is happening.”

Board members, echoing the governor, took issue with those in the crowd who claimed that Lariviere was targeted for being a change agent.

with notoriety after he published a memoir that included explicit descriptions of his sexual activities with young male prostitutes in Morocco and Thailand. (He later said they had not been underage.)

“We are particularly proud of presenting, for the first time ever, this great masterpiece of French literature,” Racine said. “Casanova was a man who loved women, a charmer, not a predator who exploited them. He was always tender, never cruel. A feminist.”

The memoir is considered extraordinary because of its detailed and colorful descriptions of the rich cultural and social life of late-18th-century Europe, including Casanova’s own sexual encounters, duels, visits to royal courts, carriage chases, evasions of arrest and swindles. Along the way he drops the names of his acquaintances, like Jean-

New York Times News Service ISLAMABAD — Prime Minister Yousaf Raza Gilani angrily protested the NATO strikes that killed two dozen Pakistani soldiers over the weekend, even as early U.S. and Pakistani accounts of the events diverged sharply and it remained unclear exactly what precipitated that attack.

“Business as usual will not be there,” Gilani said of the already frayed relationship with the United States.

“We have to have some-

www.oregonfreshstart.com “This isn’t about bold creative leadership, nor bold visionary ideas,” said board member David Yaden. “Those are still on the table. … This is about whether one person, no matter how talented, no matter how popular, gets to set his or her own rules or agenda without regard for consequences for the larger whole.”

After listening to about two hours of testimony from the public, the board made a motion to vote. Before doing so, however, some board members attempted to respond to their critics, only to elicit more criticism.

Reading from a prepared statement, Jill Eiland said that “today’s vote should come as no surprise.” Many in the crowd took this as an acknowledgement that the board members’ minds were made up before they heard from the public.

“This is a sham,” one person said.

Another said, “You’ve already voted. Is there someone without a prepared statement?”

Paul Kelly, who was the board president when Lariviere was hired, told the crowd he would respond without a statement and directed his comments at Lariviere. He spoke of many conversations with Lariviere and said the two shared similar goals.

“During all those conversations we continued to pursue the idea of a common goal, and the methodology simply didn’t jive,” Kelly said. “And all I’m asking you to do is for the entire University of Oregon community, to acknowledge a shared responsibility for the breach of trust that has led us to the position today, that none of us, you nor us, want to be in.”

Lariviere will receive at least one year’s salary of $245,700.

Matt Donegan, the board’s president, summed up Lariviere’s tenure as “a long, deep divide, with a great number of steps of intervention.”

THE BULLETIN • TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 2011

Investigation Continued from A1 It was unclear on Monday what possible crime the police are investigating. However, attorneys hired by Deschutes County commissioners wrote in a letter to the Oregon State Bar in July that Flaherty may have committed the crime of official misconduct under state law. That is the same crime for which Flaherty investigated Pilliod, using the grand jury.

Official misconduct is also the misdemeanor crime with which the Department of Justice charged former Umatilla County District Attorney Dean Gushwa a year ago. In the highprofile case, the department alleged Gushwa used his office to intimidate female employees into having sex with him. The department ended up settling with Gushwa. State attorneys agreed to drop most of the charges and prosecute Gushwa on one count of misusing his position to get a $6 discount on a hotel room, The Oregonian reported. Gushwa agreed to resign. He was found guilty on the remaining count of official misconduct and sentenced to 3 years of probation.

The state bar’s disciplinary office is still investigating the complaint against Flaherty.

The attorney handling the case is currently out on leave, bar spokeswoman Kateri Walsh

Jackson Continued from A1 Would his comeback attempt have landed him squarely back in the spotlight after a decadelong absence from the stage and years marred by criminal allegations? Or would he have faltered, possibly losing every last asset to his name and failing to become relevant once more?

On the witness stand, Ortega was far less upbeat than he was in the documentary about the lead-up to the concerts. He testified that with less than a month to go before the first show, Jackson was missing from an entire week of rehearsals. It was at a stage when the highly technical production involving 3D technology and illusions was being pulled together, shortly before the crew moved into the final venue: London’s O2 Arena.

“It became this continued absence,” Ortega recalled.

When Jackson showed up, what Ortega saw worried him.

The singer was barely eating and appeared to be losing weight. Then there was the evening of June 18, 2009, when Jackson was shivering and rambling, leading Ortega to worry the star may be “unable to rise to the occasion due to real emotional stuff.”

“My friend wasn’t right, he wasn’t well. There was something going on that was troubling me,” the director said on the witness stand. “He was chilled and he appeared lost, a little incoherent.”

To industry observers, the revelations about the weeks leading up to the London concerts came as a surprise.

“What a train wreck,” said Jim Guerinot, manager of acts including No Doubt, Nine Inch Nails and the Offspring, who followed the trial. Back in 2009, Guerinot said he had high expectations for the concerts, knowing Jackson’s reputation for perfection.

“It sounded like it was going to be a phenomenal return,” Guerinot said. “Hearing what we hear now, I doubt they would’ve ever made it out the door had he not overdosed.”

Gary Bongiovanni, editor in chief of the live music trade publication Pollstar, said an artist’s attendance at rehearsal is crucial to an event of such magnitude.

“A show like that is keyed off his performance,” he said.

“There are 50, 100 people who are all taking the cues off of what Michael does onstage.”

Some of the portrayals of Jackson that emerged in trial were far from the confident, sure-footed artist shown in the documentary. A longtime doctor of Jackson’s, Allen Metzger, testified that the singer came to him desperate for a way to sleep because he was “fearful” about his upcoming shows.

“His fear was that this was a big obligation,” Metzger recalled, saying Jackson realized that the number of concerts, which were to be documented

by Guinness World Records, was a “huge ordeal.” “I think he believed he was up to the task but fearful about his nutritional state and being healthy,” the doctor testified.

wrote in an email Monday. The anonymous complaint alleges that Flaherty had a conflict of interest when he convened a grand jury for a case in which the potential victims were employees in his office.

One of the anonymous complaints filed on Nov. 14 alleges that former Chief Deputy District Attorney Traci Anderson participated in the grand jury investigation despite a conflict of interest. Anderson’s job application was among the records released by the county.

Anderson maintains that she did not participate in the grand jury investigation.

The second complaint filed this month states that Deputy

District Attorney Brigid Turner mishandled the grand jury investigation.

Anderson declined to comment, and Turner did not return a call for comment on Monday.

In June, both Anderson and Deputy District Attorney Pat Horton left the office. Anderson returned to the Multnomah County District Attorney’s Office and now works as a prosecutor in the sexual assault and felony assault unit.

One of the complaints filed this month alleges that Anderson participated in a presentation to the grand jury. It also cites a report prepared by attorneys hired by Deschutes County and submitted to the

state bar in July.

The report claims that “Mr. Flaherty … allowed at least one deputy district attorney, Mr. Flaherty’s Chief Deputy, Tracy (sic) Anderson, whose personal information was the subject of the disclosure under investigation, to advise the Grand Jury in its investigation and to participate in the potential criminal investigation.”

In an Aug. 3 letter to the county’s attorneys, however, Anderson wrote that she “did not advise the grand jury, attend grand jury proceedings or hear testimony in this matter.”

Horton, who worked with Anderson, said on Monday the allegation that Anderson pre-

sented information to the grand jury was “factually incorrect.”

“She did not present any evidence. She did not give any advice to the grand jury,” he said.

Horton declined to comment on whether he had concerns over how the grand jury investigation was handled.

The bar complaint filed this month also alleges that Anderson “used her supervisory position as Chief Deputy to intimidate and silence Deputy District Attorneys who voiced explicit warnings about the conflict of interest violations Mr. Flaherty was committing.”

The anonymous complaint against Turner alleges that she failed to seek advice on wheth-

er the District Attorney’s Office had a conflict of interest in convening the grand jury.

“Either through gross negligence or willful misconduct, Ms. Turner failed to conduct even the most basic conflict of interest analysis,” the complainant wrote. “She made no effort to seek outside advice for the matter, including submitting an anonymous or hypothetical inquiry to the Oregon State Bar.” The complaint also alleges that Turned was rewarded for her work on the grand jury with “choice case assignments,” although no details on the cases were provided.

Poll: Millennials don’t work hard The co-workers of 20somethings are less than amazed with the younger generation’s work ethic, according to a poll released Monday.

The poll of 637 working Americans was conducted on behalf of Workplace Options, a Raleigh, N.C.-based consulting firm. The results showed that 77 percent of workers believed the millennial generation have a different attitude towards workplace responsibility than other age groups. Millennials are primarily people born in the 1980s and early 1990s, who started coming of age around the new millennium.

Furthermore, 68 percent of respondents said they think millennial workers are less motivated to take on responsibility and produce quality work, and 46 percent said they think millennials are less engaged at work than others.

The state has started building a solar installation that will be outfitted with Oregon-made equipment on the former U.S. military radar site near Christmas Valley.

Funded by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, the $1 million project will be built on the rooftops of three existing warehouses at the nearly 2,300-acre site located north of Wagontire Road, about 15 miles northeast of Christmas Valley.

Construction began last month, said Stan Hutchison, chief of planning and program-

ming for the Oregon Military Department, and it’s expected to be finished by mid-January.

About 500 solar panels made in Hillsboro and three solar-electric inverters made by Advanced Energy Industries, formerly PV Powered, in Bend, will generate about 140 kilowatts of electricity, according to a news release from the Military Department issued Monday.

The amount would be equivalent to the power consumed annually by, roughly, a dozen homes, and the Military Department sees this project as the start of solar generation at the site.

Feds seize 150 websites LOS ANGELES — Federal authorities have seized 150 Web domain names they said were used to traffic counterfeit brand-name merchandise.

The website seizures targeted the illegal sales of counterfeit products, including professional sports jerseys, golf equipment, DVDs, shoes, handbags and sunglasses, authorities said Monday.

Visitors to the sites now find a banner that says the domain name has been seized by federal authorities and that copyright infringement is a federal crime.

The seizures were part of an ongoing investigation dubbed Operation in Our Sites, which targeted online counterfeiting and piracy. Since its launch in 2010, authorities have seized 350 domain names that were allegedly used to sell counterfeit goods.

Sales of electronics and their gear in airports have gone from little more than an afterthought a few years ago to a rapidly growing presence.

Electronics “fit the airport market really well,” said Bruce Boudreau, a director of LeighFisher, airport consultants in Burlingame, Calif.

“There are lots of business travelers, lots of tech-savvy people who are looking to try new things or replace things they already have. They might need batteries, want to replace their headphones, kill time or reward themselves for a good idea or a good business trip.”

One retailer, APW Brands, plans to open a new type of

store next year where employees will wear electronic nametags with multimedia displays to demonstrate equipment to customers. Next year,

too, OTG Management plans to rent iPads to travelers for their trips and sell downloadable content for the iPads.

The Paradies Shops, which

operates a variety of branded stores like Brooks Brothers and newsstands at airports, has joined forces with the video game company Electronic Arts on a new retail concept.

Mark Knight, president of Airmall USA, an airport retail developer owned by Prospect Capital, a private equity company, said sales volumes of electronics retailers at airports exceeded sales volumes of retailers specializing in items like clothing, jewelry, gifts or souvenirs. Electronics are “hot in their sales performance,” he said, “because they have such broad appeal and are constantly changing.

They’ve got natural, built-in momentum.”

WASHINGTON — Taking a broad swipe at the Securities and Exchange Commission’s practice of allowing companies to settle cases without admitting that they had done anything wrong, a federal judge Monday rejected a $285 million settlement between Citigroup and the agency.

The judge, Jed Rakoff of U.S. District Court in Manhattan, said that he could not determine whether the agency’s settlement with Citigroup was “fair, reasonable, adequate and in the public interest,” as required by law, because the agency had claimed, but had not proved, that Citigroup committed fraud.

As it has in recent cases involving Bank of America, JPMorgan Chase, UBS and others, the agency proposed to settle the case by levying a fine on Citigroup and allowing it to neither admit nor deny the agency’s findings. Such settlements require approval by a federal judge.

While other judges are not obligated to follow Rakoff’s opinion, the 15page ruling could severely undermine the agency’s enforcement efforts if it eventually blocks the agency from settling cases in which the defendant does not admit the charges.

Cyber Monday: from hype to reality

By Claire Cain Miller New York Times News Service

Cyber Monday might have started as a made-up occasion to give underdog e-commerce sites jealous of Black Friday a day of their own, but it has become an undeniably real thing — surprising even the people who invented it.

Last year, for the first time, the Monday after Thanksgiving was the biggest online shopping day of the year by sales, and the first day ever that online spending passed $1 billion, according to comScore, a research company that measures Web use.

This year, with a recordbreaking Black Friday — shoppers spent $816 million online, 26 percent more than last year, in addition to spending more offline — online retailers geared up for Monday to once again be their best of the season.

Seventy-eight percent offered promotions, according to Shop.org, an industry group. Almost half offered discounts, while 38 percent ran limited-time flash sales and a third had free shipping.

GM offers free loaner cars to Volt owners

By Tom Krisher The Associated Press

DETROIT — General Motors, concerned about the image of its Chevrolet Volt, is offering free loaner vehicles to owners who are worried about the electric cars catching fire.

The move comes after a government safety agency said on Friday that it is investigating fires involving the Volt’s lithium-ion battery packs following crash tests. Thus far, the Volt tests have not raised concerns about the safety of other electric cars, the agency has said.

GM said on Monday that the vehicle is safe. But it will contact owners of the more than 5,000 Volts sold in North America since December 2010 to reassure them. It will also offer loaner cars to ensure that owners are satisfied and confident in their purchase. GM has not put a time limit on how long customers can keep the loaners, but said the offer is not a response to demands from customers.

The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration said a Volt battery

pack that was being monitored caught fire on Thursday, a week after it was hit in a side-impact crash test. The agency said another battery that was crash-tested recently gave off smoke and sparks.

The latest fires are in addition to a battery fire at a test facility in Wisconsin back in June.

The Volt, which can travel about 35 miles on electric power before a small gasoline generator kicks in to run the car, has helped Chevrolet’s public image, and GM is eager to protect that goodwill.

The company has promoted the car extensively as a first step toward independence from foreign oil.

Mary Barra, GM’s senior vice president of product development, said both fires reported by NHTSA occurred seven days to three weeks after the crash tests, and could have been prevented if the battery charge had been drained as GM has called for in its post-crash procedures.

At Zynga, ambition may become liability

By Evelyn M. Rusli

“Zynga should be an example of entrepreneurship at its best. Instead it’s going to be a Harvard Business School case study on founder overreach — this will be a cautionary tale.”

New York Times News Service

Zynga’s chief executive, Mark Pincus, got an earful from employees last month.

In dozens of emails to a companywide list, frustrated workers complained about the long hours and stressful deadline periods. The quarterly staff survey solicited 1,600 responses, with plenty of criticism, including one person who said he planned to cash out and leave after the initial public offering.

Pincus took note, going through the comments and highlighting select excerpts. At a Zynga meeting several days later, he read some of the most acerbic words. Pincus said he was aware of the problems, but needed the staff’s guidance to fix them.

Few Internet startups have grown as swiftly as Zynga, creator of a sprawling network of virtual farms, cities and poker tables that is preparing to go public in one of the most highly anticipated offerings this year.

Led by the hard-charging Pincus, the company operates like a federation of city-states, with autonomous teams for each game like FarmVille and CityVille. At times, it can be a messy and ruthless war. Employees log long hours, managers relentlessly track progress, and the weak links are demoted or let go.

But that culture, which has been at the root of Zynga’s success, could become a serious liability, warn several former senior employees who agreed to speak on the condition of anonymity because of fear of reprisals.

As the discord increases, the situation may jeopardize the company’s ability to retain top talent at a time when Silicon Valley startups are fiercely jockeying for the best executives and engineers. It could

Zynga CEO Mark Pincus celebrates the opening of his company’s new headquarters in San Francisco last month. Pincus has been criticized for his hard-charging, data-driven leadership style.

also hamper dealmaking, a critical growth engine for Zynga, which has spent about $119 million on acquisitions in the last two years.

“Zynga should be an example of entrepreneurship at its best,” said Roger McNamee, a co-founder of the venture capital firm Elevation Partners. “Instead it’s going to be a Harvard Business School case study on founder overreach — this will be a cautionary tale.”

Warning signs Already, signs of trouble are emerging.

In July, Zynga lost a bid for PopCap, a mobile gaming company. Zynga offered $950 million in cash.

But PopCap’s founders worried about the company’s reputation after hearing rumors of the company’s rescinding share awards and fierce internal competition, said two

people with firsthand knowledge of the situation. Instead, PopCap agreed to a rival offer from Electronic Arts, worth $750 million in cash and stock and the potential of an additional $550 million if certain earnings goals were met.

Several startups have also rebuffed Zynga this year, including Rovio. This summer, Rovio, the maker of the popular mobile game Angry Birds, walked away from discussions of a deal worth roughly $2.25 billion in cash and stock, three people briefed on the situation said.

With the IPO fast approaching, competitors are preparing to poach disgruntled staff members. This month, one recruiting firm sent cookie baskets to some 150 Zynga employees.

Zynga declined to comment, citing the mandatory quiet period before its IPO.

By the numbers While from the outside Zynga may have the fun and whimsy of the Willy Wonka chocolate factory, the organization thrives on numbers, relentlessly aggregating performance data, from the upper ranks to the cafeteria staff.

General managers submit weekly reports, measuring factors like traffic and customer satisfaction. Every quarter, teams assess their priorities under an Intel-pioneered system called “objectives and key results.” And Pincus, a professed data obsessive, devours all the reports, using multiple spreadsheets, to carefully track the progress of Zynga’s games and its roughly 3,000 employees.

“It’s very similar to a New York investment bank,” said Lou Kerner, an analyst at the brokerage firm Liquidnet, who has followed Zynga for

years. “It’s data-driven, and it’s intense.”

The data pipeline allows Zynga to fine-tune its games to optimize engagement, helping the company attract some 270 million unique users each month, many through Facebook. The four-year-old Zynga, which has emerged as the Web’s largest social gaming company, recorded $828.9 million in revenue in the first nine months of 2011, more than double the same period a year ago. It is also the rare Internet startup that is profitable, earning $121 million since the start of 2010.

But the heavy focus on metrics, in this already competitive industry, has also fostered an uncompromising culture, one where employees are constantly measured and game designers are pushed to meet aggressive deadlines. While some staff members thrive in this environment, others find it crushing.

For the top performers, the rewards are handsome. Zynga dispenses lavish gifts like vacations and $100,000 in vested stock.

Those who do not perform can perish.

In March 2009, Zynga hired its chief people officer, Colleen McCreary, who formalized the hiring structure and started to trim weak performers, cutting about 30 employees by that summer. Pincus began drafting “MIA,” or missingin-action, lists to keep track of senior employees who were

not doing a good job or who needed to be placed on more ambitious projects.

Changing its ways Zynga has made efforts to change its ways. The company has added data centers and expanded teams to ease the burden on its engineers.

It is also encouraging managers to schedule a bigger buffer between project phases and to give teams the week off before a game’s debut. Zynga — which offers employee perks like acupuncture, Friday happy hours and a cafeteria brimming with organic food — is also spending millions of dollars on focus groups and other initiatives to strengthen its manager training programs.

Pincus is also trying to soften his managerial style. McCreary has spent significant time with the executive, coaching him on his tone and constructive criticism. In 2010, the company also hired an outside consultant to do a “360-degree review” of Pincus. The consultant interviewed employees and board members and produced a report filled with feedback.

Still, rivals say Zynga will have to do even more to bolster its image, or risk losing its appeal as an employer at a time when resources are scarce.

“We’ve learned that when companies treat talent as a commodity, the consequences are severe,” said Toledano of Electronic Arts. “It takes years to repair a reputation.”

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

Electronics Continued from B1 Knight also said that electronics retailing was a natural fit for airports because the merchandise, which is usually not large, could be sold in “small, efficient settings,” like carts and shops that are essentially cubbyholes. Although some electronics stores are outside of security checkpoints, most are near the gates, providing a diversion for travelers waiting for their flights.

Boudreau said prices charged for electronics at airports were typically equal to or within 10 percent of prices at retailers elsewhere.

The marketplace The largest retailer of electronics at airports is InMotion Entertainment, which started out renting DVD players in 1999 and now operates 68 stores at 33 airports in the United States. Their stores go under the names of InMotion Entertainment, which sells a wide variety of electronics and accessories; Soundbalance, which offers environmentally friendly products like solar-powered batteries; and BlackBerry Store from Wireless Giant, which sells BlackBerry merchandise.

APW Brands, based in Wellington, Fla., began in 1997 as a cart at Philadelphia International Airport,

Cyber Continued from B1 “It’s going to be up there again, no doubt,” said Gian Fulgoni, chairman of comScore and an e-commerce expert, about Cyber Monday sales.

“We were all surprised last year when we saw it turned out to be the biggest day of the season,” he said. “But more and more retailers have become a part of the Cyber Monday kickoff, more and more consumers are aware of it and know there are special deals coming — and you put that together and you’ve got an important day.”

The Monday after Thanksgiving was Amazon.com’s busiest day for the first time last year, when it sold 13.7 million items. Previously, the busiest day fell in mid-December on the last day Amazon offered free shipping in time

where the founder, Iris Goldschmidt, sold cellphones. The company now operates 15 TechShowcase and 20 Airport Wireless stores in about 20 airports in the U.S. The Airport Wireless stores offer a wider selection of equipment and accessories than TechShowcase. The company has a joint venture with InMotion Entertainment on Soundbalance stores, and also operates Tech in a Sec carts at several airports.

APW Brands’ newest retail concept, Tech Interaction, is scheduled to open at airports in Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and Baltimore early next year. Customers will be able to research their electronics needs on touch screens on store walls, examine merchandise and try out equipment like headphones.

Bluwire, which has been in business since 2007, has 12 outlets in eight airports.

Christopher Burden, Bluwire’s co-chief executive, said headphones were his company’s best-selling item.

“If you spend $700 on an iPad, you want to enjoy it with a suitable pair of headphones,” he said.

Another electronics retailer, Brookstone, has stores at 50 airports in the United States. Don Eames, Brookstone’s vice president of retail stores, said half the stores’ merchandise was electronics-related. He also said the category was the

“fastest-growing part” of Brookstone’s business, with items like iPhone cases and a roll-up keyboard among top sellers.

Zoom Systems, based in San Francisco, operates Best Buy Express vending machines in most of the 50 largest airports. The machines sell 60 to 70 items carried by the retailer, including the Apple iPod Touch and Nano.

Several companies also cater to the current demand for Apple’s iPad and similar devices. OTG Management will open OTG Media Bars at its Cibo Express Gourmet Markets in Delta’s Concourse G in Terminal 1 at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport next year.

Travelers will be able to rent an iPad or pay to download content for their own iPad; rentals, available for a minimum of one day, will start at $29.95.

Even airport newsstand specialists sell electronics and accessories. In September, the Paradies Shops opened an EA Sports Experience store at Charlotte Douglas International Airport in North Carolina where customers could play with and purchase Electronics Arts video games and other merchandise.

Duty-free stores at major airports worldwide outside the United States — run by companies like DFS Group, Dufry, Nuance Group and

Knight of Airmall said electronics retailing at airports was somewhat recession-proof because the income level of many travelers was higher than that of the general population, which “mitigates some of the impact of general economic conditions.”

But Kerry Moyer, senior director of retail membership for the Consumer Electronics Association, a trade group, cautioned that retailers had to be careful with what they offered.

“If it’s an impulse purchase that satisfies an immediate need, people won’t hesitate spending $50 or $100,” he said. “If you have something that’s priced too high, say over $200, then they might hesitate and think about it.”

for Christmas.

The day was also the biggest last year for LivingSocial, the daily deal site, and for PayPal, where online payment volume was up 19 percent over the year before.

Many retailers have such high hopes for the day that they are trying to expand it.

Toys R Us offered Cyber Monday deals Sunday night and will continue them through the week. West Elm began its promotion on Wednesday, and Target went so far as to offer Cyber Monday deals in September.

Still, there are naysayers who view the day as more hype than reality. At Blue Nile, the online jeweler, the last day for free shipping by Christmas remains the biggest sales day, said Mark Vadon, Blue Nile’s chairman.

“The majority of consumers are procrastinators and they’ll wait as long as they can,” he

said. “Cyber Monday is the start of the wave, not the top of the wave.”

The day is nevertheless important, Vadon said, because it is the first time online retailers get substantial data on which products are most popular, where they will need more inventory and where they should offer promotions during the crucial holiday shopping season. On Monday, Blue Nile was offering 20 percent discounts on its top 25 gifts under $100, and a $200 gift certificate for $100 on LivingSocial.

At Amazon, the deals for Cyber Monday included hundreds of discounted items, among them a $500 KitchenAid mixer for $260, a $599 Panasonic Camcorder for $299 and a $299 Microsoft Xbox 360 with games for $199.

LivingSocial has amassed 15 retailers, including Bluefly and Snapfish, to offer deals for the day. It had na-

tional television and radio ads through Monday to push the promotions.

The economic doldrums and high unemployment will drive Cyber Monday shopping this year, Davis said. “In a down economy, more people are willing to seek out and make time for good deals,” she said.

Mobile shopping was also expected to drive online sales Monday, because people returning to work after the holiday could conveniently shop on their lunch break or under the conference table in a meeting, said Claudia Lombana, shopping specialist at PayPal. “Just like Thanksgiving weekend shopping is a ritual in America, when people go with their families to look for deals, as soon as they go to the office on Monday they look online,” said Sucharita Mulpuru, an e-commerce analyst at Forrester Research. “It’s almost ceremonial.”

Continued from B1 The agency contends that it must settle most of the cases it brings because it does not have the money or the staff to battle deep-pocketed Wall Street firms in court. Wall Street firms will rarely admit wrongdoing, the agency says, because that can be used against them in investor lawsuits.

The agency in particular, Rakoff argued, “has a duty, inherent in its statutory mission, to see that the truth emerges.”

But it is difficult to tell what the agency is getting from this settlement “other than a quick headline.” Even a $285 million settlement, he said, “is pocket change to any entity as large as Citigroup” and often viewed by Wall Street firms “as a cost of doing business.”

According to the SEC, Citigroup stuffed a $1 billion mortgage fund that it sold to investors in 2007 with securities that it believed would fail so that it could bet against its customers and profit when values declined. The fraud, the agency said, was in Citigroup’s falsely telling investors that an independent party was choosing the portfolio’s investments. Citigroup made $160 million from the deal and investors lost $700 million.

Rakoff said the agency settlement policy — “hallowed by history, but not by reason”— creates substantial potential for abuse because “it asks the court to employ its power and assert its authority when it does not know the facts.” That undermines the constitutional separation of powers, he said, by asking the judiciary to rubberstamp the executive branch’s interpretation of the law.

The agency said that it disagreed with the judge’s ruling but did not say whether it would appeal, or try to refashion the settlement or prepare to begin a trial, as the judge directed, on July 16.

Robert Khuzami, the agency’s director of enforcement, said in a statement that the Citigroup settlement “reasonably reflects the scope of relief that would be obtained after a successful trial,” and that the decision “ignores decades of established practice throughout federal agencies and decisions of the federal courts.”

Citigroup said it also disagreed with Rakoff’s decision, adding that it would fight the charges if the case indeed went to trial.

“We believe the proposed settlement is a fair and reasonable

World Duty Free — also sell consumer electronics free of local taxes and import duties to departing international passengers. Boudreau said the decision to buy at these stores should be based on a comparison of prices at the airport and at the traveler’s place of residence, where local taxes could be imposed.

Savings can be considerable for travelers from high-tax countries like those in the European Union and Brazil, where local taxes can add as much as 40 percent or more to imported items like electronics, he said.

resolution to the SEC’s allegation of negligence, which relates to a five-year-old transaction,” Edward Skyler, a Citigroup spokesman, said in a statement.

“We also believe the settlement fully complies with long-established legal standards. In the event the case is tried, we would present substantial factual and legal defenses to the charges.”

Rakoff has been a frequent critic of the agency’s settlements. In 2009, he rejected a proposed $33 million settlement with Bank of America for a case in which the agency said the bank had misled shareholders over its acquisition of Merrill Lynch. He eventually approved a $150 million settlement after the agency presented further evidence of the bank’s wrongdoing.

The judge also noted the difference between the agency’s settlement with Citigroup and its settlement last year with Goldman Sachs in a similar mortgage-derivatives case.

Goldman was required to say that its marketing materials for the product “contained incomplete information.”

In the Citigroup case, no such facts were agreed on.

“An application of judicial power that does not rest on facts is worse than mindless, it is inherently dangerous,” Rakoff wrote. “In any case like this that touches on the transparency of financial markets whose gyrations have so depressed our economy and debilitated our lives, there is an overriding public interest in knowing the truth.”

Khuzami took issue with the judge’s characterization of the settlement.

“These are not ‘mere’ allegations,” he said, “but the reasoned conclusions of the federal agency responsible for the enforcement of the securities laws after a thorough and careful investigation of the facts.”

Barbara Black, a professor at the University of Cincinnati College of Law who edits the Securities Law Prof Blog, said that the decision was interesting because Rakoff treads the line between the deference that judges are supposed to show to regulatory agencies while also ensuring that the court does not simply rubber-stamp decisions.

In a legal dispute between two private parties, they can agree to whatever settlement they desire, Black said. But in a case involving a public agency with consequences that affect the public interest, there has to be some kind of acknowledgement that certain things did occur, she added.

Economic mobility slows for Americans, report says

By Kirsten Valle Pittman McClatchy-Tribune News Service

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Economic mobility — a family’s ability to improve its financial situation — has slowed for America’s lowest-paid workers since 1980, meaning it’s getting harder to make “rags to riches” a reality, according to a recent report from Wells Fargo & Co. The paper, released this month by a team of economists at the San Franciscobased bank, said concerns about income inequality will likely be at the center of political debates before next year’s presidential election.

But it said economic mobility is a more important measure “from the perspective of keeping the American Dream alive” and that steps such as providing access to better education and promoting financial literacy, rather than sweeping economic policies, might be the best fix.

The report, called “Economic Mobility: Is ‘Rags to Riches’ Still Possible?” found a widening income gap between the ultrarich and everyone else since the late 1970s, though all income groups are doing better, on average, than in years past.

But increasing inequality isn’t necessarily a problem if workers are constantly moving in and out of the highest income brackets, meaning every worker has a chance, in theory, to reach higher pay, the paper said.

The Wells Fargo economists found on the high end of the income spectrum, mobility fell in the 1980s and 1990s from the decades before. But more recently, mobility in the middle and at the upper end has increased.

“It might be an overstatement to suggest that economic mobility is alive and well, but it is not dead either,” the paper said.

Night creams are part of the Youth in Bloom line of products made by Angelina Organic Skincare products.

Angelina Continued from B1 Products include body butters, masks, massage oils, sugar scrubs, face creams, the new Mojito Mint Pedicure line and the anti-aging line Youth in Bloom.

A need for a remedy prompted Swanson’s creation of skin-care products. When working as a rafting guide in Arizona, Swanson said, she suffered from cracked heels.

She tapped into her academic roots in botany and biology to make a treatment.

“Desperation leads to innovation,” she said. “I couldn’t find a product that worked.”

When Swanson, 37, moved to Bend 11 years ago, she worked as a massage therapist, using her own skin-care products when giving massages. As word spread about her products, she began getting requests from spas around town to make custom lotions and oils.

Swanson sold her first tin of Skin Doctor, the treatment for cracked heels and hands, about 10 years ago, she said, and started selling online and wholesale in 2003.

Over the past seven years, Swanson said, she has been working with Sage Spring Spa in Sunriver to develop various products. She makes all her products in her lab, consulting with cosmetic chemists and dermatologists.

Using one of her slogans, Swanson said her products are truly “the alchemy of beauty:” an art and a science, which involves natural ingredients.

“Trying to use all natural materials to create the same effect as synthetic materials is challenging,” she said. “You have to know your farmer. We work with farms all over Oregon and Washington.”

Tumalo Lavender, off Connarn Road, supplies Swanson’s lavender and sage, while Dancing Bee Acres, in Irrigon, supplies her beeswax and honey.

To be competitive in the international skin-care market, Swanson said, she makes it a priority to create products with organic, local and fairtrade ingredients, and to personalize the experience for her customers.

One way she gives her customers a little something extra, she said, is by offering free facials on Fridays. Each woman can get one free 20-minute facial, she said.

“It’s difficult for women to try a new product line. It can be expensive to switch over,” she said. “(The facials are) kind of a fun way to introduce

women in town to our product line ... The customer can make sure they are getting the right skin care for their skin type.”

With customers constantly demanding new products, Swanson said, she is always researching and formulating new treatments.

“Our customers are very discerning. They’re label readers and are conscious about what they’re putting on their skin,” Swanson said.

She said coming up with the perfect formula is no easy task. It can take years, but she said she enjoys the process of making something that not only smells good, but also is effective.

“Our local customers are really our biggest testing ground,” she said. “We have pretty harsh weather here, so if our products are nourishing and effective in Central Oregon, then they’re good to go on the market.”

Why do you feel usQ: ing local ingredients is important?

A huge part of our busiA: ness is connecting our customers with the source of their skin care. Making the connection with farmers brings more soul into the product we are selling. Our community has been struggling.

It’s really important for all of us at the lab to do as much of our business as we can locally because we’ve watched a lot of our friends lose their jobs.

Where do you see your Q: business going in five years?

Our sales have doubled A: in the past year in the local and wholesale market. We just built a new online store, which we launched Friday, so we can focus on online national sales.

How do you decide what Q: new products you are going to make?

Our customers beg us A: and then we spend years trying to develop something that works for them.

What is the specific Q: target of your skin products?

Our niche is working A: with people who have sensitivities, damaged skin or skin that is out of balance.

What is your favorite Q: The product that you sell?

Youth in Bloom firming night cream, A: because I’m not getting any younger.

EUROPEAN CRISIS

Dire warnings are mounting up

By Liz Alderman and Stephen Castle New York Times News Service

PARIS — European leaders faced mounting pressure Monday to overcome divisions and move ahead quickly with new plans to prevent the euro currency region from fracturing, as warnings multiplied that the crisis could endanger the global economy and cause credit to dry up in the banking system.

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development said Monday that

the euro crisis remained “a key risk to the world economy.” The research group, based in Paris, sharply cut its forecasts for wealthy Western countries and cautioned that growth in Europe could come to a standstill.

The warning came just hours after Moody’s Investors Service issued its own bleak report on Europe’s sovereign debt crisis. Moody’s, a leading credit rating agency, warned that the problems could lead multiple countries to default on their debts or exit the euro,

which would threaten the credit standing of all 17 European Union countries that use the euro.

Despite the gloomy predictions, stock indexes rose sharply in Europe and Asia as well as on Wall Street and the euro strengthened on hopes that European leaders would step up efforts to resolve the crisis.

Finance ministers from the eurozone were to meet today in Brussels to try to agree on how to increase the firepower of their bailout fund. They

also hope to sign off on an 8 billion euro ($10.7 billion) loan installment to prevent Greece from defaulting. A proposal for a Europe-wide solution to the crisis is expected before a meeting of European Union leaders on Dec. 9.

Already, though, the prime ministers of Finland and Luxembourg are voicing alarm over French-German plans to set strict budget rules for countries that use the euro — something Berlin considers a precondition of further steps to save the euro zone.

Solar Continued from B1 Built for the U.S. Air Force, the Over-the-Horizon-Back-Scatter Radar installation was developed to track and detect aircraft approaching the U.S. up to 1,800 nautical miles away, a distance where they would normally have been hidden by the curvature of the Earth. The site operated for less than a year before being mothballed in 1991, its mission replaced by satellite technology, according to Oregon Department of Environmental Quality documents.

The state recently bought the site from the federal government, primarily to train F-15 pilots, who would respond to mobile threat emitters located on the ground during training exercises, according to a September 2010 analysis by the Legislative Fiscal Office.

But the remaining electrical infrastructure installed

by Air Force could provide a channel for moving renewable energy onto the electrical grid. To power the radar installation, the Air Force built two 100-megawatt high-power transmission lines to the site, which also has three electrical substa-

tions. “What makes Christmas Valley so neat is its use as a radar site by the Air Force was really electricity intensive,” Hutchison said.

By 2020, the Oregon National Guard wants to achieve net zero status — generating the amount of power it uses in a year, 20 megawatts, through renewable sources, Hutchison

said. The effort involves all Military Department facilities around the state, but the former Christmas Valley radar site could house large-scale solar installations, which the federal government generally define as those producing less than 20 megawatts.

“In an ideal world, we’d like to see that 20 megawatts hap-

FATAL CRASH

LOCAL BRIEFING Nonprofit buys foreclosed homes Housing Works has acquired 19 foreclosed townhomes in Redmond with funding from a federal program.

The homes are located in the Fairhaven Vista subdivision at the corner of 25th and Elm streets.

They were bought with funding from the Neighborhood Stabilization Program, Network for Oregon Affordable Housing and Home Federal Bank as part of an effort to curb plummeting real estate values in once-booming neighborhoods.

Housing Works, along with the cities of Redmond and La Pine, have teamed up to distribute the funding.

The federal money, $1.5 million in total, also will provide down-payment assistance for qualified buyers of these properties.

A Bend High School senior killed last month on U.S. Highway 26 outside Madras had smoked marijuana earlier that day, according to an Oregon State Police investigator.

Olivia Mockus, 17, was driving a 1990 Geo Prizm at about 3:20 p.m. on Oct. 30 when her car drifted onto the south shoulder near Fir Lane. Mockus Mockus overcorrected and collided head-on with a westbound Chrysler van carrying 38-year-old Daleen McElhaney, of Portland, and her children, Sadie, 12, and Kelton, 8.

The first witnesses to arrive at the scene said that Mockus was conscious and spoke to them, according to Oregon State Police Senior Trooper Clint Prevett, the lead crash investigator. Mockus’ death — which occurred shortly after paramedics arrived — most likely resulted from internal injuries, Prevett said.

Prevett said that police found a “user amount” of marijuana in Mockus’ car, and investigators were told Mockus had smoked marijuana early that morning.

A man convicted in 2009 of shooting a horse in the head and abandoning it in the Deschutes National Forest near Suttle Lake was ordered Monday to serve an additional five days in jail for violating his probation.

Prosecutors argued Russell Daniel Willeford, 30, of Banks, violated his probation by deploying overseas with the Oregon National Guard, failing to get a court-ordered mental health evaluation and keeping a pet. During sentencing, his felony conviction was reduced to a misdemeanor and his probation terminated.

Willeford was arrested in October 2008 for shooting the horse, first named Trooper and renamed Hero. The horse belonged to Camp Tamarack, on Dark Lake, whose directors told Willeford — a former employee — to find it a new home. Instead, he shot the horse in the head with a 9 mm pistol. Hunters later found the horse, which had a leg injury and a left eye hanging out of its socket.

In May 2009, a jury found Willeford guilty on one count of first-degree animal abuse — a class A misdemeanor — and one count of first-degree criminal mischief, a class C felony.

The jury also acquitted him on one count of first-degree animal abuse and charges of theft and animal neglect.

Hero had an injured left leg at the time Willeford shot him.

As a condition of his probation, Willeford turned over the gun used in the shooting, was not to own any pets for five years, and was ordered to undergo a mental health evaluation. He was allowed to continue working with horses with a caveat: If his mental health evaluation turned up something troubling, the prosecution could ask that he be barred from such work.

But Willeford violated his probation after leaving jail, said Deschutes County Deputy District Attorney Kari Hathorn.

Hathorn said Willeford, an Oregon National Guardsman, met with his probation officer in September 2009 and was told to have the guard contact the probation office.

The felony conviction would have disqualified Willeford from further service with the

guard, but Willeford didn’t tell the guard he’d been convicted. Instead, he left the state and missed several probation appointments. Hathorn said Willeford eventually called the probation officer to tell him he was in Wisconsin and was being deployed overseas with the guard.

Willeford returned from deployment in 2011, but didn’t contact the probation office.

He also never got the courtordered mental health evaluation, Hathorn said, and this year has been working as a horse trainer.

For the violations, the court imposed a five-day jail term, but reduced his animal-abuse felony to a misdemeanor. His probation has also been terminated. Willeford’s attorney, Joel Wirtz, did not return a call for comment.

both she and her 17-year-old passenger, Bend High senior Lomeli “Karen� Ruiz, were wearing seat belts.

Ruiz was taken to Mountain View Hospital and released later that night. McElhaney also was taken to Mountain View Hospital, then transferred to St. Charles Bend, where she was listed in fair condi-

tion the night after the crash.

She has since been released.

Her children suffered minor injuries. “It’s a terrible, tragic death,� said Prevett about Mockus. “We try to educate people and relate that to kids we deal with.�

OR-11, a male pup from the Walla Walla pack, wakes up from anesthesia after being fitted with a radio tracking collar on Oct. 25 in northeastern Oregon. Another wolf, OR-7, from the Imnaha pack, has ditched his pack — near the Idaho border — in search of a mate, a search that has carried him 730 miles across Oregon.

Wolf’s search for love, independence has attracted public’s affection, scorn

By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press

GRANTS PASS — A young wolf from Oregon has become a media celebrity while looking for love, tracing a zigzag path that has carried him hundreds of miles nearly to California, while his alpha male sire and a sibling that stayed home near the Idaho border are under a death warrant for killing cattle.

Backcountry lodge owner Liz Parrish thinks she locked eyes with the wolf called OR-7 on the edge of the meadow in front of her Crystalwood Lodge, on the western shore of Upper Klamath Lake, and hopes someday she will hear his howls coming out of the tall timber.

“I was stunned — it was such a huge animal,” said Parrish, who has seen her share of wolves while racing dog sleds in Alaska and Minnesota.

“He just stopped and stared. I stopped and stared. We had a stare-down that seemed like a long time, but was probably just a few seconds.

“He just evaporated into the trees. I stayed there awhile, hoping he might come back.

He didn’t.”

Cattle rancher Nathan Jackson has not seen or heard the wolf, and hopes he never does.

“In this country, we worked really hard to exterminate wolves 50 years ago or so, and there was a reason,” said Jackson, who ranches on the other side of Upper Klamath Lake from Parrish’s lodge.

“A lot of people who don’t have a direct tie to the agricultural community tend to view wolves as majestic, beautiful creatures. They don’t seem so majestic and beautiful when they are ripping apart calves and colts.”

Last February, OR-7 was in a snowy canyon in northeastern Oregon, when a state biologist shot him with a tranquilizer dart from a helicopter, then fitted him with a tracking collar and blue ear tags. State biologists have been able to chart his journey from GPS positions transmitted from the collar. They show he has traveled 730 miles on his meandering route, getting as far as 320 miles from home. And each time he crosses a county line, OR-7 makes it into the newspapers and on TV news.

The conservation group Oregon Wild has begun a contest

“With all that’s going on right now with management of wolves in Oregon, this is kind of a different side that people across the state have taken a shine to.”

— Russ Morgan, wolf coordinator, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife

to give OR-7 a different name, hoping to make him too famous to be shot, either by a poacher, rancher or government hunter. One entry came from as far away as Finland.

The first came from a little girl in OR-7’s home territory of Wallowa County, who suggested “Whoseafraida.”

OR-7 set out on his trek on Sept. 10, just before state wildlife officials issued a death warrant for members of his Imnaha pack for killing cattle. The kill order specifically mentions OR-7’s father, the alpha male, and one younger wolf with no collar. Since OR-7 and two siblings took off, that would leave his mother and one pup.

The department reports a government hunter had a shot but missed, and did not get another before conservation groups won a stay of the kill order while their legal challenge is settled by the Oregon Court of Appeals.

Wolves started moving into Oregon from Idaho in the late 1990s, from packs introduced into the Northern Rockies as part of a federal endangered species restoration program.

From trail cameras, radio tracking collar data, and sightings, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife figures the state has at least 23 wolves. All four packs are in the northeastern corner of the state.

Two produced pups this year.

Federal protection for wolves was lifted in Eastern Oregon, but they remain under state protection. West of Interstate 97 they are back under federal protection.

When wolves reach about 2 years old, they typically strike out on their own, looking for a mate and an empty territory they can call their own. And that’s what OR-7 has done.

He’s trekked across mountains, deserts and major highways from his pack’s turf.

Once in the Cascade Range, OR-7 meandered through the Rogue-Umpqua Divide, where Oregon’s last known wolf was shot by a bounty hunter in 1946. He skirted Crater Lake National Park, and dropped down to the flatlands near Upper Klamath Lake, climbed back up in the Cascades, and crossed over the crest south of Mount McLaughlin, a snowcapped volcano visible from Interstate 5.

So far there have been no reports of cattle killing along his path.

Russ Morgan, the wolf coordinator for the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, has been surprised by the way the public has embraced the wandering wolf. Much of Morgan’s time is spent on a more difficult task, trying to build acceptance among ranchers.

“With all that’s going on right now with management of wolves in Oregon, this is kind of a different side that people across the state have taken a shine to,” Morgan said.

OR-7’s travels are not unusual, said Ed Bangs, the retired U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service wolf coordinator for the Northern Rockies. A female from Montana headed south through Wyoming, crossed southeastern Idaho, dropped down to Utah, crossed northern Colorado, and headed back up to Wyoming, where she ate poison and died.

“If you connect all the dots, she walked something like 3,000 miles,” said Bangs. “Wolves are amazing travelers.’”

And patient. One male hung out four years in Idaho, howling and leaving scent markers, before a female found him, Bangs said. They established a pack, and the male lived to the near-record age of 13 before lying down and dying next to a dead elk.

Bangs said most of the wanderers become biological dead ends, but even if OR-7 dies alone, the trail of scent posts he has left will be followed by others.

And OR-7 already may have company. Tracks and sightings from last winter indicated other wolves made it to the Cascades. Parrish spotted a track last May in a muddy area of her meadow.

Eugene council considers plastic bag ban

The Associated Press HAPPY VALLEY — When 13-year-old Alex Gonzales walked into algebra class with a late pass in hand, he found himself alone at a side table, but not as punishment. The Happy Valley Middle School classroom just didn’t have enough desks for 47 students.

Such stories are increasingly common in Oregon schools as school districts get squeezed by rising benefit and retirement costs and stagnant state funding, the Oregonian reported.

During the 2007-08 school year, Oregon had average elementary class sizes of 24 students and average secondary classes of 26, The National Center for Education Statistics said. In that year, the center’s data show, Oregon surpassed the national average.

Two years later, according to the center, the state’s averages were higher than those in every state except Utah, California and Arizona.

Among the impacts, say students and educators: noise and distractions, student questions that go unasked or unanswered, less feedback on assignments, and even more opportunities for cheating as students get crowded together.

“When you’re increasing class sizes, you’re creating a system in which we are preordaining that a certain percentage are going to fail,” said Leonie Haimson, executive director of the Class Size Matters. “For the high-need students who need that extra help and need adults in their life, you’ve got to give them

smaller classes.”

“We just learn better in smaller classes,” said Hannah Pasco, 13, an eighth-grader in the Happy Valley algebra class.

“We’d get a better education.”

Hard to keep students’ names straight The teacher in that first-period class, Carl Sander, teaches 243 students, more than the entire enrollment of the small alternative high school where he taught for several years and could develop a strong relationship with almost all his students.

Now, in the chaos of a 47-student algebra class, it’s hard even to keep the names straight.

After he tried to catch one eighth-grader’s attention as her back was turned by calling her “Ms. Jones,” the student shrugged.

“He does that sometimes,” said Julia Hodsdon, 13.

Julia said she schedules time outside of algebra class when she needs assistance. “I waited for help for a whole period once,” she said.

Her mother, Donna Hodsdon, said Julia has come home “overwhelmed” by the crowds.

“How can a student learn?” said Hodsdon, a former educator. “You can’t even ask a

question because there are so many people.”

Class-size statistics are often skewed by exceptions for special education or elective classes, and class sizes vary, even within individual schools.

Most administrators try to keep core classes such as English or math considerably smaller than physical education or health classes. But this year, even those core classes are growing.

The 17,300-student North Clackamas School District shed about 14 percent of its teaching staff last year.

Currently, 130 elementary classes — more than half — have more than 30 students.

Happy Valley Principal Chris Boyd finds the numbers daunting.

“We can’t push more students into the classrooms than we have now,” he said. “The question we have to ask right now, simply from a parental standpoint, is ‘How big is too big?’”

The Associated Press EUGENE — Eugene is expected to join the Oregon cities considering restrictions on plastic bags at retail stores.

After the Legislature failed to act on a ban this year, Portland prohibited plastic bags at checkout stands in supermarkets and big retailers. The Eugene Register-Guard reports that the Eugene City Council

hasn’t set a date yet, but is getting ready to study a bag ban.

The paper said bans are being contemplated in other Oregon cities, such as Corvallis, Newport and Ashland.

Oregonians use about 1.7 billion plastic bags a year, and many pollute the ocean and kill marine life, said Dave Mathews of Environment Oregon, one of the groups that asked the Eu-

gene council to consider a ban.

“There is no reason a product we use for a few minutes should float in our oceans for a few hundred years,” Mathews said.

A ban would eliminate consumer’s choices as well as a “highly convenient, 100 percent recyclable product,” said Anna Richter Taylor, a Portland spokeswoman for a plastic bag manufacturing firm.

Gov. Kitzhaber’s death penalty opinion overdue

W

hen Gov. John Kitzhaber declared last week that no executions will take place in Oregon while he is governor, it was heartening news for death

penalty opponents.

His statement reflects back on the agonizing decisions he made during his previous terms as governor, in 1996 and 1997, when he allowed two executions to take place despite his own personal opposition.

Many will support the governor’s change of heart and recognize the difficulty of the decision he made.

But why go only halfway? He could have commuted the sentences of all on death row to life in prison, thus closing the book on all those cases.

In explaining why he didn’t, Kitzhaber references the will of the voters, who in 1984 voted to reinstate the death penalty. He describes the system as broken and says he does not believe the voters meant to create a system so flawed. The current system is not applied equally to all, he said, and the only people executed in 27 years were ones who volunteered by waiving their appeals. “I could have commuted Mr. Haugen’s sentence — and indeed the sentences of all those on death row — to life in prison without the possibility of parole,� says the

governor’s statement. “I did not do so because the policy of this state on capital punishment is not mine alone to decide. It is a matter for all Oregonians to decide. And it is my hope — indeed my intention — that my action today will bring about a long-overdue reevaluation of our current policy and our system of capital punishment.�

We agree with the governor’s concern for the will of the voters, and we wish he had given them a chance to discuss this during the election. It was no secret at that time that the next governor would likely face this question. The voters could have expressed themselves on their ballots if the candidate had made his views public.

We also agree that the system is severely flawed and support Kitzhaber’s call for the Legislature to consider reforms and for the citizens to engage in the “longoverdue debate that this important issue deserves.�

But we wish the governor had stood up to the whole issue, and earlier. First, during the campaign.

Second, long before the criminal justice system spent so much time and money preparing for an execution.

Consumer picks up cost of reduced fees

T

here’s an old saw about being careful what you ask for, because you just might get it.

American merchants and consumers are discovering how true that saying is, at least where debit card swipe fees are concerned.

Banks charge merchants fees for each debit card “swipe� made in a store. Merchants lobbied hard to have the fees reduced as part of the Dodd-Frank financial regulation bill approved by Congress.

Merchants got what they asked for, and the Federal Reserve — charged with putting many of the changes into practice — settled on swipe fees of between 21 and 24 cents per transaction. That’s down from a high of as much as 44 cents per swipe, but about double the 12 cents per swipe some merchants paid.

The changes went into effect last month, and they have triggered several actions that should have been predictable: The new 24-cent ceiling on swipe fees has become a floor, a shift that has been particularly hurtful to the country’s

smallest merchants.

Banks sought to recapture their lost revenues, estimated at $6.6 billion annually, by simply charging bank card holders a small monthly fee. We all know what happened to that — though some may not recognize other, smaller charges as the replacements for the card fees.

Finally, if merchants have reduced their prices because their fee costs have gone down, it’s news to us.

Now merchants want more, and they’re suing the Fed to get it.

Convenience stores, small retailers and grocers have been particularly hurt by the higher fees because so many of their sales are small. Now they want the Fed to push back at the banks again and reduce the fees still further. Given how unhappy many Americans are with banks, they may just get what they want.

We hope not. Banks no doubt will link lower fees for cards to higher fees for other services. Consumers are the folks who ultimately will pick up the tab, just as they have done this time.

My Nickel’s Worth Paterno screwed up You fondly call him — Joe Paterno — “JoPa.� What I want to know is how your JoPa could sleep every night since finding out about the situation at Penn State. You don’t just wash your hands of a situation like that. A real man goes above and beyond and would have fought to the ends of the Earth to rectify the situation and bring justice.

What is wrong with our society?

A football program is more important than a child? A 61-year career is applauded when who knows how many lives have been destroyed!

To the writer of “Wrong on Paterno,� I ask which of your children or grandchildren are you willing to send into the shower with Jerry Sandusky for some “playful time?�

Imagine what a career your JoPa would have had if he had exposed this when he found out about it and then went on to finish a 61-year career. He would have been a moral hero as well as a sports hero.

I know what is more important to me.

Let’s keep surface water Let’s keep our surface water resource.

I have read that clean, safe water is the new gold of the world, and becoming more expensive as time and population growth continue. Our surface water from Bridge Creek is pure and flows through pristine land — no logging, no mining, no industry — a rare resource in the 21st century.

It is important to keep both the underground and surface water sources, even though it will be expensive to upgrade. It was expensive to install the sewer system in Bend, and it was just awful, with the blasting and digging and torn-up streets.

I’m sure many upstanding citizens were not in favor, especially since our utility bills would increase. I’m grateful that city leaders made that decision and encourage them to persevere in the decision to preserve Bridge Creek water. I imagine the federal government would be happy to have that resource back, which could then be privatized — perhaps even selling our untested mountain water back to us in plastic bottles!

Safe, clean water will undoubtedly be expensive in the future.

Let’s keep and control our own resources.

Solar is farsighted In response to Jack Keeney’s Oct. 13 letter on solar panels at the Centennial Parking Plaza: First, the majority of the monies to fund the solar project are coming from ratepayers, not taxpayers.

While one can argue that this is an insignificant detail, Keeney’s imprecise semantics define a deeper political belief, with solar mistakenly lashed onto a public whipping post.

What should be flogged is the true “cost� of the coal-fired electricity and myopic vision many have of solar. Over 60 percent of Pacific Power’s power generation is from dirty coal. The true cost should factor in “externalities� such as deaths, asth-

ma, mercury and climate change. A recent article in the American Economic Review states that the true cost of burning coal is over twice as high as the market price.

We need to look ahead. Many opposed the construction of an electric grid as long ago as a “misuse of taxpayer money� as it was cheaper to read books by gas lantern. But it was the farsighted who won.

This nation needs to invest today in clean renewable energy of all types. It is the economic driver for this and the next generation. In fact, the U.S. solar power market grew a record 67 percent last year, the fastest-growing energy sector.

Simple payback methodologies are easy, but please apply the correct math, not fuzzy math, and don’t misuse semantics. The times truly are a-changin’ and the new one is not being powered by coal but by the sun.

Close shops on holiday I saw a sign on a local retail store announcing the store would be open on Thanksgiving Day from 4 until 10. How considerate of that employer.

Don’t the employees deserve to enjoy a Thanksgiving dinner with their friends and family like everyone else? I wonder how many customers would interrupt their Thanksgiving Day to run out to buy Christmas ornaments or silk flowers. I hope next year management reconsiders their selfish decision and keeps their doors closed until Black Friday.

Congressional term limits may be clear goal for protesters

By Phillip J. Osborne just came back from a family gettogether in New York where a topic of interest was, “Why can’t our Congress get together and get our country moving?� We discussed the Occupy Wall Street movement and I was asked what was happening in Oregon. My answer was, “No leader and no consensus yet, as elsewhere.� But there seem to be many folks mad as hell about our government being so beholden to special interests that nothing is getting done and they no longer can deliver reform!

Today, I read Thomas Friedman’s article, “India, U.S. are two peas in a pod,� about the protest over their corruption. Arvind Kejriwal, a top deputy of Hezare — the movement leader in India — quoted Mohandas Gandhi, saying, “whenever you do any protests, your demands should be very clear, and it should be very

I

clear who is the authority who can fulfill that demand, so your protests should be directed at that authority.�

The last couple of weeks, I have caught the CBS News with Scott Pelley, who has had eight outstanding American leaders in a forum in Independence Hall asking the lead question: “Why are we stalemated in our government and can’t get anything done?â€? • Mary Frances Berry, professor at University of Pennsylvania, said, “Invest now, and get things moving,â€? referring to the billions being held back by Corporate America. • Mick Cornell, Oklahoma City mayor, said, “Big business can produce the lasting jobs with medical benefits and lasting employment, but first we need a centrist executive branch that can bring those leaders together to do that.â€? • Arturo Vargas, director of the National Association of Latino Elect-

IN MY VIEW ed and Appointed Officials, said, “Some states have passed limited laws prohibiting their citizens, that qualify, to vote.â€? • Matthew Segal, co-founder of the Our Time organization, agreed with Vargas by saying, “Our voting system is so antiquated that we can use the computer for banking online, but not for voting.â€? But Segal’s main concern was that “things are completely controlled by special interest groups, that 95 percent of the money for re-elections for winning candidates comes from industry and financial groups for which the candidate is ‘loyal,’ but not to their constituencies!â€? • Washington educator and CEO of Students First Michelle Rhee’s main point was “Flourishing small businesses.â€?

• Eileen McDonnell, CEO of Penn.

Mutual Life Insurance Co., said, “Start small, one step at a time, and get the business section going.â€? She said that “there is such a cloud of smoke out there that holds us back.â€? • John Bogle from the Vanguard Group, when asked about the most positive thing out there, said, “Confidence in the upcoming generationâ€? — that his generation has fouled things up and he sees the young generation as a hopeful sign. • Dr. Joe Greer, M.D., Dean of Academic Affairs at Florida International University and Medal of Freedom winner, was also present. Either I missed his contribution or he was just a good listener.

I listened carefully and there was not an idea I didn’t agree with. For years, I have heard a movement to limit congressional terms. This idea was driven home by Segal, who said that winning congres-

sional candidates “every election� receive 95 percent of their funding via big business and financial institutions. No matter how good these ideas are, without term limits we are “whistling in the wind!� I have never bought into the saying that it takes two years for a representative to familiarize themselves with Congress before they can get anything done! That is because of money and the incumbent. How much time one spends there I leave to the experts, but we need a constitutional amendment or a referendum by the people!

How about that for an idea for the Occupy Wall Street, Bend, Portland, etc.? Think of what Gandhi said: Whenever you do any protests, your demands should be very “clear,� and it should be very “clear� who is the authority who can fulfill your demand, so your protests should be directed at that authority. — Phillip J.

Sitting in her home in Ashland, Jennifer Margulis shows off empty vials of vaccine that she saves in case one of her children has a bad reaction. An author of books on parenting who has written about childhood vaccines, Margulis is one of a growing number of parents questioning the government’s schedule of mandatory vaccinations for children.

Vaccine exemption rates climbing in U.S. schools

By Mike Stobbe The Associated Press

A rising number of parents in more than half of states are opting out of school shots for their kids.

And in eight states, more than 1 in 20 public school kindergartners do not get all the vaccines required for attendance, an Associated Press analysis found.

That has health officials worried about possible new outbreaks of diseases that were all but stamped out.

The AP analysis found most states have seen at least a slight rise in the rate of exemptions over the past five years. States with the highest exemption rates are in the West and Upper Midwest.

It’s “really gotten much worse,� said Mary Selecky, secretary of health for Washington state, where 6 percent of public school parents have opted out.

Rules for exemptions vary by state and can include medical, religious or — in some states — philosophical reasons.

Parents’ reasons for skipping the shots vary.

Some doubt that vaccines are essential. Others fear that vaccines carry their own risks. And some find it easier to check a box opting out than to get the shots and required paperwork.

Still others are ambivalent, believing in older vaccines but questioning newer shots against, say, chickenpox. “Many of the vaccines are unnecessary, and public health officials don’t honestly know� the effects of giving so many vaccines to such small children, said Jennifer Margulis, a mother of four and parenting book author in Ashland — a small liberal community that has unusually high vaccination exemption rates.

To be sure, childhood vaccination rates remain high overall, at 90 percent or better for several vaccines, including those for

polio, measles, hepatitis B and chickenpox. In many states, exemptions are filed for fewer than 1 percent of children entering school for the first time.

Health officials have not identified an exemption threshold that would likely lead to outbreaks. But they worry when some states have exemption rates climbing beyond 5 percent. The average state exemption rate has been estimated at less than half that.

Even more troubling are pockets in some states where exemption rates are much higher. In some rural counties in northeast Washington, for example, vaccination exemption rates in recent years have been above 20 percent and even as high as 50 percent. “Vaccine refusers tend to cluster,� said Saad Omer, an Emory University epidemiologist who has done extensive research on the issue.

Alaska tops exemption list; Mississippi at bottom For its review, the AP asked state health departments for kindergarten exemption rates for 2006-07 and 2010-11. The AP also looked at data states had previously reported to the federal government.

Alaska had the highest exemption rate in 2010-11, at nearly 9 percent. Colorado’s rate was 7 percent, Minnesota 6.5 percent, Vermont and Washington 6 percent, and Oregon, Michigan and Illinois were close behind.

Mississippi was lowest, at essentially 0 percent.

The AP found 10 states had exemption rate increases over the five years of about 1.5 percentage points or more, a range health officials say is troubling.

Those states, too, were in the West and Midwest — Alaska, Kansas, Hawaii, Illinois, Michigan, Montana, Oregon, Vermont, Washington and Wisconsin.

Exemption seekers are often middle-class, college-educated white people, but there are often a mix of views and philosophies. Exemption hot spots like Sedona, Ariz., and rural northeast Washington

have concentrations of parents who prefer alternative medicine, as well as libertarians who fear giving government too much authority.

A national survey of roughly 750 parents, published last month in the journal Pediatrics, found that more than 1 in 10 parents said they refused or delayed shots mainly because of safety concerns.

Many exemption-seeking parents conclude that the dangers posed by vaccinepreventable diseases are less important than the possible harm from vaccines. “We are being told this by every government official, teacher, doctor that we need vaccines to keep us safe from these diseases. I simply don’t believe that to be true. I believe all the diseases in question were up to 90 percent in decline before mass vaccines ever were given,� said Sabrina Paulick, of Ashland, a mother of a 4-year-old daughter. “I don’t think vaccines are what saved the world from disease,� she added. “I think effective sewer systems, nutrition and hand-washing� are the reasons.

Analyzing vaccination exemptions is difficult. States collect data differently. Some base their exemption rates on just a small sample of schools while others rely on more comprehensive numbers. So the AP worked with researchers at the CDC, which statistically adjusted some states’ 2010-11 data for a better comparison.

It’s also not clear when an exemption was invoked against all vaccines and when it was used to excuse just one or two shots. CDC officials think the second scenario is more common. “I wouldn’t be one to say I am absolutely certain these things are hurting our children,� said Michele Pereira, an Ashland mother of two young girls. While her daughters have had some vaccinations, they have not had the full recommended schedule. “I feel like there are enough questions out there that I don’t want to take the chance,� she said.

Stalin’s daughter wandered in obscurity after defecting from Soviet Union

By Douglas Martin New York Times News Service

Her three successive names were signposts on a twisted, bewildering road that took her from Stalin’s Kremlin, where she was the “little princess,� to the West in a celebrated defection, then back to the Soviet Union in a puzzling homecoming, and finally to decades of obscurity, wandering and poverty.

At her birth, on Feb. 28, 1926, she was named Svetlana Stalina, the only daughter and last surviving child of Soviet leader Josef Stalin.

After he died in 1953, she took her mother’s last name, Alliluyeva.

In 1970, after her defection and a U.S. marriage, she became and remained Lana Peters.

Peters died of colon cancer Nov. 22 in Richland County, Wis., the county’s corporation counsel said Monday. She was 85.

After he became once said, though “I do regret my ill and died, they only reluctantly mother didn’t marry a carpenter.� gave her permission, in early 1967, Peters’ story began with a loving to take his ashes home to India.

Once in India, Peters evaded Soviet agents in the KGB and showed up at the U.S. Embassy in New Delhi seeking political asylum.

In 1970, she married William Wesley Peters. Peters had been chief apprentice to the architect Frank Lloyd Wright and, for a time, the husband of Wright’s adopted daughter. It was her third marriage.

Within two years, they separated. Lana Peters was granted custody of their 8-month-old daughter, Olga. They divorced in 1973.

Peters had lived in Richland County for three years. In a 2010 interview, she was asked if her father had loved her. She thought he did, she said, because she had red hair and freckles, like his mother.

But he left a shadow from which she could never emerge. “Wherever I go,� she said, “here, or Switzerland, or India, or wherever. Australia. Some island. I will always be a political prisoner of my father’s name.�

Ducks on a roll; Bruins in turmoil

Pac-12 honor for UO freshman University of Oregon running back De’Anthony Thomas was named 2011 Pac12 Conference football co-offensive freshman of the year and was one of five Ducks to make the all-Pac-12 first team, conference officials announced Monday.

In voting by the league’s head coaches, Thomas, who leads all freshmen in the Football Bowl Subdivision this season with 16 touchdowns, was also named to the all-conference first team as a return specialist. He shared offensive freshman of the year honors with USC wide receiver Marqise Lee. Other Oregon players named to the first team were junior running back LaMichael James (for the second time), junior defensive lineman Dion Jordan, senior linebacker Josh Kaddu and senior defensive back Eddie Pleasant.

The highest honor for an Oregon State player went to junior defensive back Jordan Poyer, who was named to the second team. Oregon players selected to the second team were senior tight end David Paulson, junior defensive back John Boyett and junior punter Jackson Rice.

Senior quarterback Andrew Luck of Stanford was named Pac-12 offensive player of the year, and senior linebacker Mychal Kendricks of California was chosen as the Pat Tillman defensive player of the year. Southern California linebacker Dion Bailey was named freshman defensive player of the year.

Stanford’s first-year head coach, David Shaw, was named Pac12 coach of the year.

• Oregon is a huge favorite in the first-ever Pac-12 title game Friday, while UCLA coach Rick Neuheisel is fired

Oregon head coach Chip Kelly listens to running back LaMichael James during a timeout in Saturday’s Civil War against Oregon State in Eugene. The Ducks won the game to clinch a spot in Friday’s Pac-12 Championship Game.

• The Beavers look back on the season, D3 • Neuheisel done after title game, D3

Monday’s first-ever Pac-12 Championship Game head coaches’ conference call was not heavy on the x’s and o’s between Oregon and UCLA. Part of that might have been because the Ducks opened as 30-point favorites for Friday’s inaugural football title game in Eugene. But more than likely it was because UCLA head coach Rick Neuheisel had just been fired.

“It’s sad,” said Oregon head coach

Chip Kelly. “I like Rick. I think Rick’s a good football coach. It’s part of the game that we understand getting into it. It’s one of the things about being a college football coach, and it’s the reality we all face. Rick’s a good person, and Rick’s a good football coach.”

If the shoe fits • For locals who want to give snowshoeing a try, there are a variety of classes available to help you better enjoy winter in Central Oregon AMANDA MILES

T

he snow has arrived just in time for the start of this season’s lineup of snowshoeing classes.

Or maybe it is the other way around: Snowshoeing classes are starting just in time to take advantage of the snow.

Either way, anyone wanting to learn how to snowshoe or resume classes after a monthslong hiatus is in luck. Snowshoeing classes through a number of Central Oregon organizations are beginning this week — including one that starts today.

Snowshoeing is a relatively easy activity to pick up compared with other winter sports, but that is only one aspect of its appeal.

“It doesn’t cost a lot of money for snowshoeing, which is a great attraction,” says Jean Fisher, 56,

a Bend resident who started taking snowshoeing classes through the Bend Park & Recreation District in 2010. “Once you get your snowshoes and a good pair of … insulated, waterproof boots, warm clothes — you can go, and you can go anywhere.”

Some of the most extensive course offerings in the area are provided by the Bend park district and Central Oregon Community College, which both offer classes from beginning to advanced levels. The Redmond Area Park and Recreation District and the Crook County Parks and Recreation District also are providing some snowshoeing classes this winter. (See “If you go” on D6 for a sampling of area classes, most of which are starting in the next few days.)

Urban Meyer to coach Ohio State COLUMBUS, Ohio — If Ohio State did not come calling, Urban Meyer says he was planning to stay away from coaching for at least another year.

Meyer, the former Florida coach and native Buckeye, was officially hired Monday by Ohio State, a program with a glittering past that has suffered through a difficult year of NCAA violations.

“If not for the coaching position at Ohio State, I would not have coached this year,’ he said.

Meyer resigned as Gators coach after last season, citing health concerns and a desire to spend more time with his family.

“A year ago in my mind I was convinced I was done coaching,” he said.

He added that he is feeling great.

“I’ve been checked out and I’m ready to go,” he said. “I’ve been to a place and I don’t want to go back.”

Meyer will become one of the highest paid coaches in college football, along with Alabama’s Nick Saban and Oklahoma’s Bob Stoops, and Texas’ Mack Brown. The school says he will receive a six-year contract that pays $4 million annually.

NFL COMMENTARY

Packers chase perfection, while Colts try to avoid it Green Bay and QB Aaron Rodgers are unbeaten so far this season.

By Barry Wilner The Associated Press

T

here is perfection — what the Green Bay Packers are chasing. And then there is perfection — what the Indianapolis Colts are trying to avoid.

Neither team wants to broach the subject, although both are very aware it’s out there.

“I think we’re a long way from there,” Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers said. “If we’re fortunate

enough to be still undefeated after 14 or 15 games, maybe we can start talking about what you were talking about.”

What the rest of the nation is talking about: 16-0. And, in the Colts’ case, 0-16.

“I think all the losses are tough. At this point, we’re just trying find a way to get a win,” Colts safety Antoine Bethea said. “We’ve got five games left now, so we got to keep rallying and stick together.”

The Packers have been sticking it to everyone all season. They lead the

NFL in points (382, 34.7 per game), and are near or at the lead in many other offensive categories. Rodgers is having the lights-out sort of season that Tom Brady had in leading the Patriots to their perfect regular season in 2007.

Indeed, there are several similarities between these Packers and those Patriots, including a heavy concentration on passing, a nice mix of veterans and youngsters, and a well-established coaching staff with a strong ability to adapt during games.

S B Football • Decision on Wulff within 24 hours: Washington State athletic director Bill Moos will make a decision on football coach Paul Wulff’s future by today. Wulff is 9-40 in his four seasons at Washington State, including a 4-8 record this season that doubled the Cougars’ win total from 2010 but failed to quiet critics. Moos said on his weekly radio show Monday that he has to decide if “staying the course” is the right decision to energize the Cougars’ fan base.

• Arizona State fires Erickson: Arizona State has fired coach Dennis Erickson after a fourth straight season of failing to live up to expectations.

Athletic director Lisa Love made the announcement on Monday after meeting with the 64-yearold coach. Erickson will be allowed to coach the Sun Devils in their bowl game, which will be determined on Sunday. “We are grateful for the service Dennis and his staff provided for the past five years,” Love said in a statement. “Even during the most difficult times, he represented ASU with dignity.”

• Texans’ Leinart fractures collarbone, will need surgery: Matt Leinart’s return to the NFL lasted less than a half, and coach Gary Kubiak says the Houston Texans will sign another quarterback this week.

Perhaps even Brett Favre will be in the mix. Leinart will be placed on injured reserve after fracturing his left collarbone in the second quarter of Houston’s 20-13 win in Jacksonville on Sunday.

Kubiak says Houston will try out other quarterbacks this week and hinted the 42-year-old Favre, who retired in January after 20 seasons, could be considered. Despite losing one key player after another, Houston (8-3) has won a franchise-record five straight games. Rookie T.J. Yates, a fifth-round draft pick out of North Carolina, will start Sunday’s game against Atlanta (7-4). Oregon product Kellen Clemens, signed last week, will back him up.

Colleges • Pac-12 hires head of TV network: The Pac-12 has hired veteran television executive Lydia Murphy-Stephans to run the conference’s television network.

The conference announced the move Monday to make MurphyStephans executive vice president and general manager of the Pac-12 Networks. She will hire and manage a team to program and produce live events, as well as create studio shows and other original programming. Murphy-Stephans has more than 25 years of experience in network television, including leadership positions at ABC Sports. She is also a former Olympic speed skater who became the first woman in network sports television history to be named vice president in 1994 at ABC.

Hockey • Carolina fires coach: The last-place Carolina Hurricanes fired coach Paul Maurice for the second time in less than a decade Monday and replaced him

with former All-Star Kirk Muller.

Muller begins his first NHL head coaching job with a slumping team that has made one playoff appearance since 2006 and has lost 10 of 13 games. He was in his first season coaching the Nashville Predators’ AHL affiliate in Milwaukee after spending five seasons on the Montreal Canadiens’ staff.

• Caps axe coach: Tuned out by his players, coach Bruce Boudreau was fired by the Washington Capitals on Monday after winning 200 games faster than any coach in modern NHL history but stumbling regularly in the playoffs despite a talentladen lineup featuring two-time league MVP Alex Ovechkin.

Boudreau was replaced by former Capitals captain Dale Hunter.

Baseball • Rangers to build statue of fan who fell to death: The Rangers are erecting a statue of Shannon Stone, the Texas firefighter who died after falling over an outfield railing at a game in July. The 39-year-old Stone, a Brownwood Fire Department firefighter, had taken his 6-yearold son Cooper to the ballpark in hopes of catching a ball.

The Rangers said Monday the life-size statue will be created by sculptor Bruce Greene, who is based in Norse, Texas, and will be placed outside the home plate gate at Rangers Ballpark in Arlington.

• Astros fire GM, president: The Houston Astros fired general manager Ed Wade and team president Tal Smith late Sunday night in the first of the changes promised by new owner Jim Crane. The Astros posted a franchise-worst mark of 56-106 last season.

Skiing • Vonn, husband begin divorce proceedings: After four years of marriage, Lindsey Vonn is splitting with Thomas Vonn, who also serves as her chief adviser and assists as a coach.

The Olympic gold medalist skier confirmed Sunday night the couple has started divorce proceedings. “This is an extremely difficult time in my personal life and I hope the media and my fans can respect my need for privacy on this matter,” she said in a statement to The Associated Press. Thomas Vonn said in an email to the AP he filed for divorce last Monday.

Volleyball • Ducks return to NCAA tournament: The No. 13 University of Oregon volleyball team has received its fifth NCAA tournament invitation in the past six years and will open postseason play Thursday night against Colorado State in a first-round match at the Stan Sheriff Center in Honolulu. The Ducks (21-9, 14-8 Pac-12) and Rams (22-5, 12-2 Mountain West Conference) start at 7 p.m. PST. The winner will advance to play Friday night against the winner of another first-round match between Hawaii and Northern Colorado.

UCLA fires Neuheisel, who will still coach on Friday

Florida coach Donovan gets win No. 400

By Greg Beacham The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — UCLA fired coach Rick Neuheisel on Monday after four disappointing seasons in charge of his alma mater.

Neuheisel will be allowed to coach the Bruins (6-6, 5-4 Pac-12) in Friday’s PacNeuheisel 12 title game at Oregon, athletic director Dan Guerrero announced. Offensive coordinator Mike Johnson will be the Bruins’ interim coach if they receive a bowl berth.

Neuheisel is 21-28 since taking over the program in December 2007, never building the momentum he needed to reach his goal of challenging Southern California for city supremacy. Guerrero fired Neuheisel two days after UCLA’s 50-0 loss to No. 9 USC, the Bruins’ largest loss since 1930 in their crosstown rivalry game.

“I thanked Dan for the opportunity,” Neuheisel said on the Pac-12’s promotional teleconference for the title game, less than an hour after his firing was announced. “I don’t need reasons and all that kind of stuff. Certainly when you’re the UCLA coach, you’d like to play better against USC. I know that. We had our chances, but when you lose in the fashion we did, that’s a difficult pill to swallow.”

If UCLA loses to Oregon, the Pac-12 would have to petition the NCAA for bowl eligibility for a 6-7 team. The Bruins haven’t indicated whether they would pursue a waiver, although Johnson’s appointment as interim coach suggests they would.

UCLA made it to just one bowl game in Neuheisel’s first three seasons, winning the EagleBank Bowl in Washington, D.C., in 2009.

Neuheisel’s firing before the title game is an ugly end to the 50-year-old coach’s self-described dream job. He was a quarterback at UCLA, leading the Bruins to an unlikely victory in the Rose Bowl on Jan. 2, 1984.

“I’m just thankful for the opportunity,” Neuheisel said.

“This has always been a place that I wanted to have the chance to help bring it to a place that everybody would be proud. Obviously we’ve fallen short of that. There are lots of things that I’m very proud of that happened in my time here. They don’t always make it to the front pages of the newspaper, but I think there was a lot of effort and a lot of good work done in the time that I was here, and it won’t be a bitter memory at all.”

Oregon State quarterback Sean Mannion (4) lets a pass fly during the first half of Saturday’s loss to Oregon in Eugene. The Beavers ended the season with a record of 3-9.

Beavers wrap up disappointing season He was also averaging 18.33 yards on punt returns and 28.67 yards on kickoff returns.

He was granted a fifth year of eligibility because of the injury, but didn’t come back until the third game of the season this year — and he never really regained the explosiveness he once had.

The season opened with a resounding thud when Oregon State lost at home to lower-division Sacramento State. The Hornets made a two-point conversion after a touchdown in overtime to win it 29-28.

The only positive from the game was true freshman running back Malcolm Agnew, who rushed for 223 yards and three touchdowns.

His rushing yards were the thirdmost in a single game in Oregon State history.

There were hopes that Agnew was the heir apparent to Jacquizz Rodgers, but before he got a chance to prove it, he was sidelined by a right hamstring injury that kept him out of five games.

By Anne M. Peterson The Associated Press

CORVALLIS — A series of unfortunate events undid Oregon State this season.

From a fall camp besieged by injuries, to the season-opening loss to Sacramento State and the final 4921 defeat to in-state rival Oregon in the annual Civil War, 2011 was the Beavers’ worst season since 1997.

Oregon State ended 3-9 overall and 3-6 in the Pac-12 Conference, finishing out of the postseason for the second straight year.

“It’s not what we planned. We didn’t plan for the season to go like this, didn’t plan to be hurt, but that’s how it happens,” said senior safety Lance Mitchell. “I think everything will work out for the good. We’ll move on from here.”

While last year the Beavers could almost trace their woes to losing leader James Rodgers to a left knee injury midway through the season, this year’s issues were widespread.

It started before camp, when James Rodgers’ little brother, dynamic running back Jacquizz Rodgers, decided to skip his senior season and go to the NFL. Quizz, as he is known, now plays for the Atlanta Falcons.

Five Beavers were coming off offseason surgery, including Rodgers, starting quarterback Ryan Katz (right wrist), tight end Joe Halahuni (shoulder), tailback Jordan Jenkins (shoulder) and slotback Jordan Bishop (right ankle).

QB change After a 35-0 loss to No. 8 Wisconsin at Camp Randall Stadium, coach Mike Riley did something that is still being debated: He benched starting quarterback Ryan Katz in favor of redshirt freshman Sean Mannion.

Mannion had replaced Katz in the game against the Hornets, and then Katz was included on only a handful of plays against the Badgers. But the decision caught many off guard, including Katz himself.

Katz was granted his release from Oregon State on Sunday.

“I have considered Corvallis home for the past four years and it’s been filled with many experiences and life lessons,” Katz said in a statement. “I want to thank all my supporters and I look forward to writing the next chapter of my story.”

Mannion had growing pains in

It only got worse The injury bug snowballed, forcing coaches to constantly juggle lineups, and when the season was over, only six positions had the same starter through all 12 games.

When he got hurt last season at Arizona, James Rodgers was ranked sixth in the nation with an average of 176.75 all-purpose yards.

the job. While he finished with 3,332 yards passing (third most in school history) and 16 touchdowns, he also threw 18 interceptions.

In addition to the losses to Sacramento State and Wisconsin, the Beavers also fell to UCLA and Arizona State before defeating Arizona 3727 at Reser Stadium. Wildcats coach Mike Stoops was dismissed two days later. The only other two teams Oregon State beat were Washington State and Washington.

Perhaps the most glaring issue for the Beavers was their running game, which averaged a dismal 86.6 yards a game — surprising for a team that in the past boasted such runners as Ken Simonton, Steven Jackson, Yvenson Bernard and, of course, Quizz.

A bitter end The season ended on a low note with the Civil War loss. James Rodgers, who hurt his ankle in the victory over the Huskies the week before, was unable to play in his final game with the Beavers.

He finished as the school’s alltime leader in receptions with 222.

He also set the mark for career allpurpose yards with 6,377. After the Civil War loss he lingered outside Autzen Stadium for a while, signing autographs and shaking hands with fans.

Though some were calling for Riley’s dismissal in the aftermath of the season, that seemed unlikely.

The coach, who grew up in Corvallis and is the son of longtime assistant coach Bud Riley, is widely respected and is under contract through 2019.

“I’m really proud of the way our team never quit,” Mannion said.

“There were times where we didn’t play as well as we would have liked, but the approach our team took ... every practice and every game was phenomenal. I’m really proud of the way we worked this year.”

Brees and Saints blow out Giants, 49-24

By Brett Martel The Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS— Drew Brees and the surging New Orleans Saints made everything look easy against the slumping Giants.

Brees passed for 363 yards and four touchdowns and ran for another score as New Orleans rolled to a 49-24 victory Monday night, extending New York’s losing skid to three games.

“There’s that confidence that players around him have, and obviously we have in him,” Saints coach Sean Payton said of Brees.

“He made some fantastic throws tonight.”

Tight end Jimmy Graham had five catches for 84 yards, including touchdowns of 5 and 29 yards.

Brees’ two other scoring strikes went to Lance Moore, who had five catches for 54 yards.

“Can’t say enough about our team. Our coaches, offense, defense — it was a great team win tonight in every aspect,” Brees said.

This was a game New York was desperate to win after losing its

previous two to San Francisco and Philadelphia.

Instead, the Giants (6-5) dropped a game behind first-place Dallas in the NFC East and face the possi-

bility of a four-game losing streak when they host the unbeaten Green Bay Packers next weekend.

The Saints (8-3), meanwhile, maintained a one-game lead over

Atlanta in the NFC South.

They also padded their rushing stats with 205 yards on the ground, including touchdown runs of 12 yards by Pierre Thomas and 35 yards by rookie Mark Ingram.

“Our guys came out sharp,” Payton said. “We felt like this was going to be tough opponent coming in with two losses they had prior to our game. ... We had the balance we were looking for. I thought we ran it well tonight.”

Marques Colston had three catches for 78 yards, all on the Saints’ 34-second, 88-yard touchdown drive late in the second quarter that gave New Orleans a 21-3 halftime lead. Colston’s longest reception went for 50 yards when he caught a pass along the left sideline, slipped a tackle and raced up field.

The Giants took a beating on the scoreboard and on the field. Defensive end Osi Umenyiora went out with a sprained ankle and receiver Hakeem Nicks was rocked on a vicious hit by Saints rookie safety Isa Abdul-Quddus.

The Associated Press ORLANDO, Fla. — Florida’s Billy Donovan earned his 400th career coaching victory as the No. 10 Gators rode a 16-point halftime lead to a 96-70 win over Stetson on Monday night.

Bradley Beal had 22 points and 10 rebounds and Erving Walker added 21 to lead the Gators (5-1) in the neutral court matchup at Amway Center. The Hatters (3-3) were led by Chris Perez with 20 points.

Stetson stayed close early on before a 23-4 Gators’ run midway through the first half blew the game open. Florida relied on its outside shooting during the spurt, knocking down eight three-pointers in the half and 14 for the game.

Florida is off until Friday, when they travel to face No. 5 Syracuse.

D4

THE BULLETIN • TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 2011

Perfection Continued from D1 But there are many differences, starting with Rodgers’ corps of receivers, which is deeper than what Brady enjoyed. Sure, Brady had stars in Randy Moss and Wes Welker, but beyond that his targets usually were Donte’ Stallworth, Jabar Gaffney, tight end Benjamin Watson and running back Kevin Faulk. Moss had a record 23 TD receptions and Welker grabbed 112 passes.

While nobody on these Packers figures to produce such numbers, Rodgers throws to as many as 10 receivers in a game, and double-covering any of them tends to create mismatches elsewhere, particularly with TE Jermichael Finley, unlike Watson a deep threat, and the emerging Jordy Nelson.

New England also had a better offensive line than the Packers can put together, and its defense was stingier than Green Bay’s.

Perhaps most notable is how the Patriots blew out teams in the first eight weeks, then were tested severely in the second half of the 2007 schedule, with four victories by four points or less. Thus far, the Packers have only two lopsided wins.

That actually might help Green Bay, toughen it for the postseason grind. Remember that the Patriots did not win the NFL title that season, losing to the Giants in the Super Bowl — and being held to a season-low 14 points.

The reality is the Packers will be favored in their remaining five games, three at home. They visit the Giants on Sunday in what some think will be their toughest test. They also get the Raiders at home, visit the Chiefs, then finish with consecutive divisional games at Lambeau Field against the Bears and Lions.

It is not an easy path, and Green Bay fully will deserve

the 16-0 mark if it gets there.

Just as Indianapolis will deserve matching the ignominious 0-16 Detroit compiled in 2008. Yes, the Mannings, uh, Colts have a monstrous excuse for flopping: Peyton Manning’s neck surgery and subsequent sidelining, something they clearly were illprepared to deal with.

But 0-11? And with some losses against the dregs of the league: Cleveland, Tampa Bay, Kansas City, Jacksonville and, on Sunday, Carolina — perhaps their best opportunity to get off this schneid?

The old adage that others will step up for the team when a star goes down certainly has not applied in Indy.

Instead of stepping up, just about everyone from Reggie Wayne to Dallas Clark to Dwight Freeney have fallen down. And they haven’t been able to get up as the losses mount.

Indianapolis is near the bottom in scoring, various offensive and defensive statistics, turnover differential and, naturally, wins.

Curtis Painter was not ready to be a starting quarterback, bringing Kerry Collins out of a short retirement backfired, injuries have plagued the roster, and coach Jim Caldwell and his staff have been at, well, a loss on how to fix anything.

Not that the Colts are giving up, even with New England, Baltimore, Tennessee and Houston, a combined 30-14, on the schedule before they finish with at the Jaguars. Tight end Jacob Tamme is searching for silver-and-blue linings, hoping for a carry-over from a decent second half against Carolina.

As if decent will get it done with the imposing schedule that’s ahead.

“I think the attitude on the field and in the huddle was a positive thing, and something to grab ahold of and take going forward,” Tamme said.

Running

Ducks Continued from D1 Friday’s championship game will be Neuheisel’s last game as UCLA’s head coach, even if the Bruins (6-6) manage a stunning upset to earn a berth in the Rose Bowl.

Neuheisel, under fire with a 21-28 record in four seasons at his alma mater, said during Monday’s conference call with media that he did not consider stepping down before the Pac-12 title game.

He added that he hopes he is not a distraction as UCLA prepares for Oregon (10-2), winners of the Pac-12 North Division and No. 9 in the latest BCS standings.

“If it’s my last time with UCLA, then I want to make it special,” said Neuheisel, 50.

“I’ll have a chance to make sure this is not about me, it’s about us. We’ll move beyond this quickly.”

UCLA — winner of the Pac-12 South because 10-2 USC is banned from postseason play due to NCAA sanctions — is coming off an embarrassing 50-0 thrashing by the Trojans, while Oregon is fresh off a 49-21 victory over Oregon State in the Civil War. The Ducks reached the 10-win mark for the fourth straight season and seventh time overall. A win over UCLA would send Oregon to the Rose Bowl on Jan. 2 and would make Kelly a perfect three for three in leading the Ducks to BCS bowl games in his three seasons as their head coach.

Kelly said he was impressed with his team’s effort against Oregon State, as Oregon racked up 670 yards of offense and 38 first downs.

Running back LaMichael James rushed for 142 yards and became Oregon’s alltime scoring leader on a 1yard touchdown run.

Quarterback Darron Thomas threw for a seasonhigh 305 yards, completing 27 of 40 passes with four touchdowns and no interceptions. Thomas is 12th in the nation in passing efficiency.

“Darron’s done a great job,” Kelly said. “He’s only thrown five picks, and two were through receivers’ hands. He can throw the ball if we’re forced to. Darron’s really playing very, very well right now.”

The Oregon defense is also

on a roll. The Ducks lacked an adequate pass rush in their 38-35 loss to USC on Nov. 19 after defensive end Dion Jordan and linebacker Dewitt Stuckey left the game early with injuries. Both were back against OSU, and the Ducks sacked Beaver quarterback Sean Mannion six times; Jordan recorded two of those sacks.

Oregon will have to adjust to defending UCLA’s pistol offense, a style they saw in a 69-20 defeat of Nevada in Eugene on Sept. 10.

“We spent a lot of time in the office Saturday night watching UCLA,” Kelly said.

“It’s a different offense than we’ve faced. We did play Nevada this year, so we’ve got a little understanding of it. It’s unlike anything else we’ve seen in our league.”

Bruin running backs Johnathan Franklin and Derrick Coleman are the cornerstones of the UCLA pistol, in which quarterback Kevin Prince lines up in a short shotgun formation with a running back directly behind him.

“They’re real tough running backs,” Kelly said.

“There’s a lot of moving parts, and we have to make sure we stay disciplined and stay in our gaps.”

The Ducks apparently are not letting their status as heavy favorites or UCLA’s blowout loss to USC affect their preparation for the Pac-12 Championship Game.

“We respect every opponent we play,” Kelly said.

“We had (weight)lifting at 10:15 Sunday morning, and every kid was in there by 8:30.”

Neuheisel knows his team will have to score a lot of points to beat Oregon and also try to keep the ball away from the Ducks.

“It’s not unlike some of the opponents we’ve played this year, with respect to their prolific offense,” Neuheisel said. “You better go down and put points on. You better take time off the clock.

They’re not going to hold the ball. They’re gonna go down and score as fast as they can. You have to be mindful of assignments and mindful of pace, otherwise it becomes a track meet very quickly.”

Bachelor ski area (541-383-4055).

Thinkstock

Snowshoeing classes are being offered by recreation districts in Bend, Redmond and Prineville in upcoming days and weeks, with many of them geared toward beginners.

Snowshoe Continued from D1 Buzz Williams, 59 and of Bend, started taking snowshoeing classes through COCC a couple of years ago and is about to start another beginner-level course, which he plans to take with his wife, Linda.

The beginning courses, Williams says, are useful to acclimate to snowshoeing again. He also observes that the trips that are part of the beginning courses are a little easier and gentler.

Included in the beginning courses, both at COCC and at Bend parks and rec, is some basic snowshoeing instruction prior to the actual excursions. The beginning classes take place over multiple days — between two and four. And the early hours for each course are staged indoors.

Topics of conversation for both courses are the basics such as equipment, clothing, safety and trails.

As Fisher points out, taking an introductory snowshoeing class is just a starting point.

“Once you have beginning down, then it’s really a matter of just pushing the distance and pushing the terrain,” Fisher observes. “A lot of people take beginning and once you have that down, you can pretty much go on your own.”

Of course, snowshoers can graduate from beginning-level instruction and move on to take additional courses, as is Williams, who plans to move through the COCC snowshoeing sequence this winter. Snowshoers looking to augment their knowledge and expand their abilities can seek more challenging classes and even take part in group snowshoe hikes. Both the Bend and Crook County parks programs offer

On Natura & Nexgel Models purchased Nov. 21st, through Dec. 4th, 2011

multiweek courses for female snowshoers, for example. (The Crook County program does not begin until January.) And Olson says an overnight snowshoeing trip to Crater Lake is on the schedule for later in the season.

Depending on the program, snowshoes may not be provided, so prospective participants should inquire beforehand. At Bend parks and rec, for example, snowshoes are not provided, so students must take their own to class. Olson recommends that participants rent snowshoes for their first couple of times out. Some shops, she says, will credit rentals toward the purchase of a pair of snowshoes. Expect to pay about up to $25 for a one-time snowshoe rental and anywhere from $100 to $300 to purchase a pair.

Something else to keep in mind before beginning a snowshoeing class is that while students do not need to be in tip-top physical condition, they should be at least somewhat physically fit.

“It’s not really suitable for people who don’t have basic fitness,” says Olson, adding that potential snowshoers should be able to walk a couple of miles easily.

That is because trips start at lengths of a few miles and build up from there.

But the effort can be worth it. Fisher, for example, has stayed in touch with and taken additional classes with individuals she has met through her courses.

And snowshoeing classes are a great way to experience the loveliness of so much of Central Oregon in wintertime.

Observes Williams: “It’s so beautiful to be out there when it’s so peaceful and quiet.”

Ralphie’s

‘Story’ • Bend youth Erik McGinnis transforms into everyone’s favorite ‘pink nightmare’ and more in ‘A Christmas Story’

By Alandra Johnson The Bulletin

R

ight before showtime on opening night of “A Christmas Story,” Erik McGinnis remembers thinking, “This is all about me. If I mess up, it’s all messed up.”

It’s a lot of pressure for a 12-year-old.

“It’s pretty frightening,” said Erik.

Though the thought of screwing up terrified Erik, he also felt exhilarated by the challenge.

Erik plays Ralphie in Cascades Theatrical Company’s rendition of this classic Christmas tale, based on the 1983 movie of the same name (to jog your memory, think: leg lamp, bunny suit, tongue stuck to an icy pole).

The Bend seventh-grader is taking Erik McGinnis, of Bend, plays on, by far, the biggest role of his life.

“It’s a big load for a young man,” Ralphie in the stage version said director Dee Torrey.

But in many ways it makes perfect of “A Christmas sense that Erik landed the role of Ral- Story,” running phie. He looks the part, and, if you can through Dec. 11 believe it, he even owns a Red Ryder at Greenwood Playhouse.

BB gun.

Passion for performing Erik can’t remember exactly when he started performing, but says it feels like forever. He and his younger brother, Evan, sometimes act out movies in their backyard and invite neighbors to come watch the show. He’s also starred in several children’s productions around town, including roles in “Willy Wonka” and “High School Musical.” Erik and his older brother, Brian, also performed as the Blues Brothers at two talent shows.

“It’s just making people happy, that’s what it is,” said Erik about why he loves performing.

And Erik is always on the hunt for more opportunities.

“He’s always looking for plays,” said his mom, Jennifer McGinnis.

This fall, Erik was searching online for auditions when he came across a notice for auditions for CTC’s “A Christmas Story.” Having watched and loved the movie, Erik knew he needed to try out for the show. Within half an hour, he was at the tryouts.

Ralphie Erik was one of about 20 kids who auditioned for the part of Ralphie.

These women are all fired up • More females are using guns for fun and protection

By Cassandra Spratling Detroit Free Press

Eric Seals / Detroit Free Press

Debra Robinson, from left, Lisa Parlberg and Justine Bergeron examine various kinds of guns as part of a gun education class at Linwood-Bay Sportsman’s Club in Linwood, Michigan, on November 12.

DETROIT — One a recent Saturday morning, Debra Robinson, 52, of Macomb Township, Mich., drove two hours to spend the day learning about and practicing shooting guns.

The married mother of two adult children admits that it was a little intimidating to point and shoot a gun at first. “It’s a deadly weapon,” she said. “I didn’t grow up playing with guns. I’m a quilter.”

But Robinson wants to learn to shoot — for personal protection and for fun.

“Our home was burglarized once while we were at work. The kids are grown up and out of the house. So now I have the luxury of time and I want to

learn while I can.”

Robinson signed up for the six-hour class almost as soon as she saw a newspaper notice about it. It’s a good thing she signed up quickly, because the women-only class reached its maximum number of 25 students well before the deadline.

A forlorn note in Mumbai Jyoti Gupta, left, and Ashish Prajapti in the documentary “The Sound of Mumbai: A Musical.� Sarah McCarthy’s film follows Ashish and a choir of street children as they perform the “Sound of Music.�

TV SPOTLIGHT “The Sounds of Mumbai: A Musical�

On Demand, HBO

By Hank Stuever The Washington Post

With just a slight shift in context, Rodgers and Hammerstein’s beloved musical “The Sound of Music� — something almost everyone likes, except, famously, the late film critic Pauline Kael — can become a creepy exercise in enforced cheer.

Intended or otherwise, this seems to be the murky subtext of Sarah McCarthy’s “The Sound of Mumbai: A Musical,� a fascinating if unsatisfying documentary that profiles some Indian street children who are chosen to sing songs from “The Sound of Music� with an orchestra for a onenight performance at an elite Mumbai concert hall.

Why the children are asked (plucked, really) to do this is never quite clear, except that the well-off founder of the Bombay Chamber Orchestra feels it would be a splendid opportunity to expose some of the city’s poorest children to the magnificence of the arts. The orchestra flies in an actual Austrian, a music professor named Johannes Steinwender, to conduct the musicians and rehearse the young singers. Everyone seems predictably idealistic about this cross-cultural experience.

A precocious 11-year-old boy named Asish is over the moon about being chosen for the choir. Crammed with his family into a tiny, street-level tenement, Asish tells us that “the biggest thing� in his life is to become less “self-conscious.� He writes disciplinary lines over and over in a notebook, admonishing himself

HBO via The New York Times News Service

for his lack of confidence. He practices self-esteem exercises in front of a mirror, a sort of slum kid Stuart Smalley, with Alfalfa’s ear for musical tone — all energy and F-sharps. “The Sound of Mumbai� wallows beautifully in these contrasts but too easily retracts from necessary documentary conventions, such as theme or point of view. It’s one of those docs that cries out for a few sentences of interstitial text that might explain what we’re seeing and why.

Asish wanders the streets of his slums endlessly singing a string of Julie Andrews gaiety.

The hills aren’t alive (there are no hills). Nor are there yodeling goatherds. There is noise, filth, hunger. Yet the music fills him with a remote sense of joy and expectation.

Now we are fully in Indiaworld, a place that so powerfully attracts Western journalists and documentary-makers; a place that can often seem to viewers like another planet populated with hyper-competitive strivers who’ve received garbled transmissions from Western pop culture.

Indiaworld can be a baffling, even infuriating place.

It’s easy to feel conflicted about the possible happiness the street children derive from participating in the chamber orchestra’s concert — especial-

ly when the organizer merrily reminds the camera that the children will always remain poor but they will always treasure their memories of singing “The Sound of Music� for one night in a posh venue.

The concert itself becomes a melancholy experience for the viewer, with Asish croaking out his solo as properly as he can and hoping so hard for the world’s approval.

Asish’s hope of glory and fame instantly fades. The Austrian conductor leaves on a jet home. The smugness of the people who put on the concert — the way they congratulate themselves for their charitable act — is palpable, but McCarthy once more holds back, as if unsure whether what she has chronicled here is supposed to be a story of uplift or a story of oppression. “The Sound of Mumbai� briefly sorts through Asish’s broken delusions, faintly ending on a note that has haunted us all at one point or another: Rodgers and Hammerstein lied.

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

A & A

Wife’s mumbling causes failure to communicate Dear Abby: My wife of 25 years has an annoying habit that drives me crazy. When she starts a conversation with me, she’ll speak in a very low voice and mumble without looking at me. I truly cannot hear or understand what she’s saying and have to respond with, “Excuse me?� “Pardon me?� or “What?�

When I speak to her, I make sure I talk clearly and in a loud enough voice, but she always throws the same remarks back at me — “Excuse me?� etc. She doesn’t do this with anyone else. I have pointed out to her that what she is doing is annoying, disrespectful and rude, and asked her to please not do it, but she continues.

Why does she do this to me, and what can we do to change it? She’s always telling me to turn down the TV. — Married To a Mumbler in San Diego Dear Married To a Mumbler: Allow me to offer a suggestion: Have YOUR hearing checked. If you can’t hear your wife when she speaks softly and isn’t looking directly at you, and she “always� tells you to turn down the TV, it could indicate that you are suffering from a hearing loss.

Dear Abby: My mother, whom I love very much, is a terrible gift-giver. At Christmas and on birthdays she gives me ridiculous gifts — clothing that doesn’t fit, jewelry I would never wear, electronics I haven’t asked for and don’t need. Last year, she removed the tags from everything and didn’t include receipts so the items could be returned.

I have created online wish lists, offered Mom “suggestions� and even told her not to worry about gifts. She’ll take none of my suggestions. I try to be polite. But Mom’s feelings are always hurt when I’m not “thrilled� with the unwanted gifts, and it puts a damper on events that should be happy

You have an unusual amount of bounce this year. Even in difficult moments you come back strong.

Knowing what you want is very important. Your resilience is admirable. How you communicate your desires could make or break a situation. If you are single, you have quite a portfolio and revolving door of admirers. With so many potential suitors, you might be quite challenged by the process of choosing. Summer 2012 on could be instrumental for romance. If you are attached, the two of you enjoy your time together even more. AQUARIUS draws you out of your shell.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHHH Your interactions with others might make you want to do something differently. A financial opportunity might be costly at first, but ultimately will work out for you.

Be ready to discuss the long-term perspective. A meeting provides an excellent platform for debate.

Tonight: Go for a new experience.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHH Remain on top of your game, realizing what you can and cannot change within a partnership.

Taking charge could be against your nature right now, but ultimately could have implications. Understand what is needed to lock in a deal.

Tonight: As long as need be.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHH Understand what someone expects; you are likely to be able to deliver. Realize what is happening within your immediate circle. See how a situation changes radically if you relax and take some moments of solitude. Tonight: Moving through the moment.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHH Your ability to move through issues causes you to rethink a personal matter. Your happy style and upbeat manner win friends. Could an associate, partner or loved one be a bit jealous? Don’t let that type of thinking have any place in a key partnership. Tonight: A discussion could be more important than you realize.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Understand what is happening. Reach out for someone at a distance. New insights naturally come when you speak to this person.

TODAY DEAR ABBY ones. I hate her wasting money on things that will not be appreciated or used. How do I handle this? — Unfortunately Ungrateful Dear Ungrateful: Because you have tried being logical, helpful and frank, and nothing has worked, thank your mother for her gifts and then put them on eBay or donate them. That way SOMEONE can appreciate them, or you may get enough money back to buy yourself something you will enjoy.

Dear Abby: We have close friends and alternate having dinner at each other’s homes.

The wife has a couple of habits I find annoying.

She’ll run her fingers around the outside of a serving dish and then licks her finger. After dinner, I always have a dish of candy on the table for everyone’s enjoyment. But before this woman leaves, she’ll say she’s taking some of it home to eat later.

Am I being petty? — Willing to Share, But ...

Dear Willing: I can see how a dinner guest running her finger around a serving dish, then licking her finger could gross you out, and we both know that rather than telling you she’s taking some of your candy home with her, she should wait until you offer it.

However, you say you are close friends. Therefore I assume that on some level her positives outweigh her negatives, or you would have expressed how her behavior makes you feel — which would have solved your problem because you’d be seeing a lot less of her. — Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby.com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

Ralphie

Women

Continued from E1 Torrey says he knew when Erik came in he was the right actor for the job.

Erik had the right look and the right voice. “I was delighted when Erik came in to try out,” said Torrey.

“Erik was just the one.”

And he says Erik has been great to work with, saying the young actor responds and listens well and isn’t afraid to try new things. “He’s eager and talented and is always on time, if not the first one there.”

Erik recognizes he is playing an icon. “It’s hard to live up to,” he said.

But he is also having a blast playing Ralphie.

“He’s just hilarious,” said Erik.

His favorite scene might be the one with Santa, in which Ralphie asks for the Red Ryder BB gun and Santa ends up shoving Ralphie down the slide. Or maybe his favorite is the scene where Ralphie does end up shooting himself in the eye with the BB gun (just as everyone said he would).

But then there’s the scene where he has to don a giant pink bunny suit.

Torrey says he wasn’t sure how Erik would like having to wear the suit, but he needn’t have worried.

“I just love it! It’s the softest thing,” said Erik.

Plus, putting on the bunny suit — a gift gone awry from an aunt in the play — always draws a huge laugh. But the scene is also one of Erik’s most challenging. “It’s so hard not to laugh!”

Another challenging scene is when he has to pretend to beat up Farkus, who is played by one of Erik’s friends in real life. The words he has to say while throwing punches are pretty funny (they are supposed to sound like swear words). Here’s a sample: cotton dampers, summary bishop, domino bits, you dog mad clanky mince able basket!

Erik says he has also enjoyed getting to work with the adult actors in the show, especially the “other” Ralphie, Will Futterman, who plays the character as an adult and narrates the show, and Craig Dennis, the actor who plays Erik’s dad.

“They really helped me out a lot. They are the coolest guys ever.”

Continued from E1 There was a waiting list of women from all over Michigan who wanted to learn more about guns.

The class is among several offered through the Michigan Department of Natural Resources project, B O W (Becoming an Outdoors Woman), that encourages women to do just that. The response was so great that organizers Tonya Sies, a member of the Linwood-Bay Sportsman’s Club, and BOW coordinator Sue Tabor are already planning a second class in March.

The popularity of the class comes as no surprise to people working in the business who’ve seen growing interest in guns among women in recent years. Experts say women are taking more gun classes, buying and packing pistols and larger firearms, and they’re having fun with guns at target ranges and gun sporting events.

Good experience Participating in the play requires serious dedication. Rehearsals started in early October and can take from two to four hours a night, recently lasting until 10 p.m. Erik has a hard time figuring out how to fit in the show and school and sleep. But he thinks it is absolutely worth it.

This play came at just the right time for Erik.

His mom says it has been really good for him to have this bright spot — Erik’s father, Pat, died last year. The play has given Erik a positive outlet, she said.

“It’s like it brought him back to life,” said Jennifer McGinnis.

Erik agrees, saying, “it seems to make me happier … Most of the time I’m just looking for this type of thing.” When he isn’t performing, he says, “life gets darker for me.”

But “A Christmas Story” “make me not even remember times when I was depressed. It just wipes away all the bad stuff.”

McGinnis thinks her son thrives in this environment. When Erik starts talking about the feeling the pressure of playing Ralphie, she stops him and says, “You like it.” And he is quick to reply, “Yeah, I love it.”

Bethany VanWormer, left, and Erin Riley hold their targets as part of a gun education class at Linwood-Bay Sportsman’s Club in Linwood, Mich., on Nov. 12.

More want ‘to feel safe’ In Michigan, there are 60,153 women and 284,034 men with approved permits to carry concealed pistols, according to State Police.

State Police did not have trend data readily available, but national and local people confirm rising interest among women.

“Since 2001, more than 57,000 women have attended our (Women on Target) clinics across the country,” said Rachel Parsons, a spokeswoman for the National Rifle Association. “And we know anecdotally from our NRA-certified instructors that they’re seeing more and more women enrolling in their classes. Gun clubs are now having Ladies Night Out at the range. And shops are carrying more products tailored to women.”

When Michigan’s law went into effect in 2001 allowing most adults who are not felons to carry a concealed firearm if they have a concealed pistol license, or CPL, which requires taking a gun education class and other stipulations, the vast majority of those taking classes through the Wayne County Sheriff’s Office were men, said Sheriff Benny Napoleon.

“Now the typical class is 40 percent to 50 percent female,” he said.

Mark Cortis, owner of Wild West Academy in Royal Oak, Mich., said “There are still way more men coming in, but we have several women in almost every class now. It used to be husbands bringing their wives or guys are bringing their girlfriends. Now, we get quite a number of women coming in on their own.”

Several factors are driving women to the gun range, experts say.

“The first and foremost reason is women no longer want to feel vulnerable,” Parsons said.

“They want to feel responsible for their own personal safety and the safety of their families. Just by their physical size, the perpetrator is going to be bigger and stronger. A firearm is the great equalizer.”

Kathy Jackson, author of “The Cornered Cat” (White Feather Press, $20), a gun safety and information book for women, agrees.

“These days no one expects a knight in shining armor to swoop in and protect you. You have to protect yourself,” says Jackson of Chehalis, Wash., who specializes in teaching shooting and safety clinics for women.

Brenda Williams, 45, of Southfield, Mich., took a CPL class with her niece in October and plans to purchase a gun.

“You hear more and more about home invasions,” says Williams, a machine operator at a Livonia, Mich., tool and die shop. “And certain nights of the week, I come home alone with a young child. I’ve never been robbed ... but I want to be on the safe side.”

While safety may be the initial attraction, many women are finding they enjoy the challenge, power and immediate gratification that come from firing a weapon.

Lori Hardy, 47, of Chesterfield Township, Mich., got a

Justine Bergeron goes through the motions of holding a gun as part of a gun education class at Linwood-Bay Sportsman’s Club.

Know your guns • Educate yourself: Take classes. Gun safety classes are offered by many police departments. Also check gun stores and clubs.

Expect to pay at least $100 for the eight-hour CPL class that is required to get a license to carry a concealed pistol.

• Practice: Go to gun ranges and practice target shooting.

• Research: Many websites offer online information and direction, such as those of the Michigan Coalition for Responsible Gun Ownership at www .mcrgo.org and the National Rifle Association at nra.org.

• Read: Two books specifically for women are “The Cornered Cat: A Woman’s Guide to Concealed Carry” by Kathy Jackson (White Feather Press, $20) and “Personal Defense For Women “ by Gila Hayes (Gun Digest Books, $21.99).

concealed pistol license about three years ago. “It makes me feel safe,” said Hardy, a manager at MotorCity Casino. In addition to carrying a pistol for protection, she often plays sporting games at area ranges — something she wouldn’t have imagined doing three years ago.

“I fell in love with the sport,” said Hardy, who along with her boyfriend regularly joins other couples for gun sporting games.

“I never thought I would own a gun — ever, and my mom is still freaked out about it. But owning a gun is not necessarily about hurting someone; it’s an appreciation of the sport.”

Amy Denyer-Grey, 40, of Lansing, Mich., an events planner, spent a recent Sunday gun shopping with a friend.

She began learning to shoot more than a year ago. Recently, she took a CPL class and is now in the market for her own firearm.

“I was very anti-gun until about a year and a half ago,” she said, trying out pistols at Target Sports in Royal Oak. “I’d never held one until then.

Once I held it, I don’t know, there was something about the power of the gun in your hand.

And I did pretty well from the very first time. When I hit my first bulls-eye, it was incredible. It made me want to do it all over again. And it’s a great stress reliever.”

Sies, the organizer of the gun class in Linwood, Mich., is such a believer in the value of women learning to use a gun, she encouraged her mother, an aunt and two female cousins to attend.

Sies initially took a CPL class on a whim with her husband three years ago. “He was looking for someone to go with him and I said I’d go.”

Now they go to their local gun club about once a week.

They play different games, including her favorite — a game in which various scenarios are set up that require the players to take action to protect themselves. “You might be sitting in

Women are packing heat, and makers of guns and gun accessories are taking notice.

Now, more than ever, there is a wider variety of products aimed at women who carry guns. Think purses, jeans, jackets, thigh holsters, vests, boxers and maternity tops. There also are more websites offering gun products for women.

“The selection on the Secure Purse site is at least three times larger than it was three years ago when I began looking,” said Tonya Sies, a member of the Linwood-Bay Sportsman’s Club and organizer of a recent state-sponsored gun-education class for women in Linwood, just north of Bay City, Mich.

Sies also was pleased to recently discover chickholster.com, which makes thigh holsters. “I’m intrigued because it will allow me to wear dresses while carrying a concealed weapon.”

For 3 extra bucks, the company will add a flower to the $50 holster.

Here are a few websites to shop in addition to gun stores: www.NRAstore.com www.smith-wesson.com http://mygunpurses.com www.chickholsters.com www.guntotenmamas.com

She carries a concealed weapon every day now. Why? “For the sense of comfort and being able to care for yourself,” she said. “I think it’s important that every woman understand guns don’t need to be something to be afraid of.”

You don’t have mulch if you don’t insulate your plants

In remote Finland, an exterior and interior are one

By Leon Pantenburg

By Elisa Mala

For The Bulletin

New York Times News Service

Maybe you think the garden is ready for cold weather and snow. The house is winterized, the sprinkler system has been blown out and drained and the fall bulbs that will bloom in the spring have been planted. You’ve raked the leaves, fertilized the lawn and pruned damaged limbs off trees. Now, the only gardening task ahead is to look at seed catalogues and maybe think about taking some gardening classes.

But don’t forget to apply mulch around the bases of trees and shrubs, says Linda Stephenson, owner of L&S Gardens in La Pine.

Winter in the Central Oregon High Desert is cold and dry, Stephenson said, and bright, cold, sunny days, with some wind, can cause new or recently-planted trees, bulbs and shrubs to dehydrate rapidly.

“Water year-round,” Stephenson recommended.

“Just because it is winter, doesn’t mean you can quit watering. Around here, your plants can literally freeze-dry over the winter months, and they may not make it through to spring.”

But in addition to watering, Stephenson recommended applying mulch around the bases of trees and shrubs and over bulbs planted in the fall.

Mulch is nothing more than an insulating material, Stephenson said, which protects roots from temperature extremes and helps keep the plant from drying out. Mulch helps conserve moisture, and can cause a 10 to 25 percent reduction in soil moisture loss from evaporation.

Mulches help keep the soil well aerated by reducing soil compaction that results when raindrops hit the soil. They also reduce water runoff and soil erosion.

VASKIVESI, Finland — On a remote horseshoeshaped island here in a lake with water stained the color of root beer by minerals in the sediment, a small dark house peers out from behind a thicket of fir trees.

“You can imagine that you’ve traveled 3,000 years back,” said Dr. Petteri Knudsen, the owner. “And it was all the same.”

Knudsen, 48, lives and works about 150 miles south of here, in Helsinki, where he is the medical director of the Finnish branch of GlaxoSmithKline, the pharmaceutical company.

At his vacation home, however, his life is a study in austerity, almost as if he lives in a previous century.

The house is heated by two wood-burning stoves, and there is no running water.

There isn’t even a cellphone, Knudsen said.

Solar panels provide a small amount of power, but most appliances and electrical fixtures, like the lamps and the radio, are battery-powered. Knudsen bathes in the lake and has a small outhouse not far away.

The 800-square-foot house was completed in 2010 for 250,000 euros (then $340,000), on 5 acres Knudsen bought in 2007 for the equivalent of $60,000. It was designed by Ville Hara, Knudsen’s ex-boyfriend, and Anu Puustinen of Avanto, a Helsinki architecture firm, to withstand the cold winters.

• Tiny pies are fun, tasty and gosh-darn cute

By Alison Highberger For The Bulletin

’Tis the season for cookies, but after becoming acquainted with Seattle’s coffee and pie maven, Dani Cone, and her new cookbook, “Cutie Pies,” it feels as if adorable mini-pies should be a new holiday tradition.

Cone is the inventor of individual-sized pies called “cutie pies” that are made in muffin pans, along with even smaller “petit-5s” made in mini-muffin tins, plus “piejars” (baked in mason jars), “piepops” on lollipop sticks and “flipsides,” which are hand-held turnovers.

Sweet or savory, they’re all fun new twists on classic pie.

In an appearance on “The Martha Stewart Show” in October, Cone made her Peach Cutie Pies and Piepops with Martha, who gave them her seal of approval, saying, “They are so cute and lovely.”

Cone, 34, the owner of three Fuel Coffee shops in Seattle, along with the High 5 Pie shop (www .high5pie.com), always loved pie, thanks to her Grandma Molly’s baking talent, but she never actually baked pie herself until a few years ago.

“I’ve been a coffee person since things started to heat up in Seattle and have been in the coffee industry for about 18 years. I had a coffee shop and wanted some pie to go, something portable and small,” she told us in a phone call from Seattle.

IN BRIEF

Weatherization for mobile homes Residents of mobile homes may qualify for free winter home weatherization thanks to the Energy Trust of Oregon. Residents don’t need to own their mobile homes to qualify.

The free service, which is offered locally by Habitats Energy Services, includes pressure tests to measure leaks, replacing and repairing any damaged duct work, sealing of leaks, installing of new fluorescent lights and other items.

Regular homes may also qualify, but in those cases homeowners pay and then can receive a partial rebate.

Contact: 541-815-5710.

New cookbook has local flavor Several local institutions were tapped to provide recipes and information for a new cookbook, “Dishing up Oregon” by Ashley Gartland.

The restaurant 900 Wall in Bend provided recipes for Steak Salad with Grilled Onions, Fingerlings, Blue Cheese and Bacon Vinaigrette as well as a recipe for Warm Bacon Vinaigrette.

Deschutes Brewery & Public House provided a recipe for Black Butte Porter Mustard. Jen’s Garden in Sisters offered up recipes for Hazelnut-Crusted Rack of Lamb and LavenderHoney Creme Brulee. Juniper Grove Farm was also listed as a contributor and supplier for the book.

Next week: Stuffed peppers

Tiny pies Continued from F1 Inspired by Grandma Molly, Cone baked dozens of pies until she got the knack, and she started to sell pies and flipsides.

Now, when people walk into her coffee shops, they’re greeted by a plethora of pie.

“It’s overwhelmingly sweet looking. They look at the case, see all the whole pies, flipsides, smaller items on the top shelf, and they’re like, ‘Wow, this is all pie?’ Any size and shape you want, any time of day,” Cone said.

Pie and a cuppa Joe: It’s a great combination. “Much like coffee, I realize that people love to come together over pie,” Cone writes in her book.

The mini-pie idea started to take off when Cone noticed that the previous tenant in a kitchen space she rented had left behind a lot of standard size, 12-cup muffin tins. She thought they should do something with the pans, and cutie pies were born.

“A cutie pie with a scoop of ice cream on top is basically perfect. Just the right size for one person,” Cone said. Her cookbook contains recipes for apple, pear-cranberry-ginger (see recipe), black raspberry and other fruit cuties, in addition to “Three Cheese and Onion,” and “Mac ’n’ Cheese” cutie pies, among other savory flavors.

Cone includes four crust recipes in her book, for all-butter (see recipe), graham cracker, vegan and gluten-free varieties.

She knows that pie-making, especially the crust part, makes some home cooks anxious, but since she mastered pies only recently herself, she knows what novices need to be successful.

“People often get a little nervous about making pie, but take your time, and you want to make sure to keep all of your ingredients cold when mixing the crust. Ice cold water, pop butter in the freezer for 24 hours, keep the dough out for as little time as possible, and don’t over-handle it. Don’t squish it too much

Dani Cone’s pie creations Find them at her Fuel Coffee Shops and High 5 Pie shop in Seattle, or make them from her recipes in “Cutie Pies: 40 Sweet, Savory, and Adorable Recipes,” from Andrews McMeel Publishing, LLC, 2011.

Updates and new recipes can be found at www .high5pie.blogspot.com.

Cutie pies: Single-serving sweet or savory pies baked in a standard muffin pan.

Petit-5s: Even smaller pies baked in a mini-muffin pan.

Piejars: Mini pies baked in mason jars.

Flipsides: Handheld turnovers.

Piepops: Pie lollipops.

Crumb Top Makes enough crumb topping for 1 (9-inch) pie, 16 cutie pies, or 36 petit-5s.

I am crazy about crumb topping on a pie. Anytime, anyplace, any pie — I love it! Crumb Top is a nice way to finish off a fruit pie, especially when the fruit is a bit tart. As somewhat of a crumb aficionado, I am particularly happy to share our very own crowd-pleasing High 5 Pie Crumb Top recipe. But a word of caution: It is addictive!

— Dani Cone

½ C all-purpose flour ⁄3 C firmly packed brown sugar

1

3 TBS granulated sugar 1 tsp salt

½ C (1 stick) unsalted butter, cold, cut into ½-inch cubes

In a large bowl, combine the flour, brown sugar, granulated sugar, salt and cinnamon, and mix well.

Add the butter to the flour mixture, and mix thoroughly with a pastry blender, a fork or your fingers until the texture is like small peas.

1 TBS cinnamon ¼ C rolled oats

Add the rolled oats, and mix to create a crumbly consistency.

Sprinkle the crumb topping over a pie, cutie pies or petit-5s before baking.

or over-roll it. The less you work the dough, the lighter and flakier it’ll be,” Cone said.

If you want to start with fullsized pies, Cone has a chapter featuring her best-sellers, including pumpkin, peanut butter and jelly, banana cream, chocolate cream and, her second favorite pie of all time (after blackberry): “The Most Amazing Mile-High 5 Lemon Meringue Pie.” In “Cutie Pies,” Cone suggests that you pick a pie shape that suits your occasion, and then choose a flavor and crust that matches. Chapters dedicated to each shape give suggestions for mixing and matching shapes, flavors and crusts.

Cone makes it easy as pie.

“Pie is fun. It’s one of those things that everyone has a memory of, and it works for breakfast, lunch and dinner, sweet and savory. You can put anything in a pie, and it comes out good,” she said.

Dani Cone’s All-Butter Pie Crust Makes 1 double-crust 9-inch pie, 2 single-crust 9-inch pies, 16 cutie pies, 36 petit-5s, 8 piejars, 10 flipsides or 50 piepops.

This phenomenal crust is a perfect complement to sweet or savory recipes. It is flaky, yet substantial, and never disappoints once you get the hang of it. The All-Butter Pie Crust is your go-to crust; it works with all pie shapes and recipes.

4 C fresh or thawed frozen cranberries 1 C fresh squeezed orange juice ½ C firmly packed brown sugar ¼ C chopped walnuts, plus additional for garnish ¼ C chopped pecans, plus additional for garnish

3 TBS plus ½ C all-purpose flour ½ tsp cinnamon All-Butter Crust 1 egg ½ C granulated sugar ¼ tsp vanilla extract 1 ⁄3 C unsalted butter, melted

1 lb (about 2½ to 3 cups) fresh or thawed frozen tart pie cherries 1 scant tsp vanilla extract 1 scant tsp pure almond extract 1 ⁄3 C granulated sugar

3 TBS cornstarch 2 tsp cinnamon Pinch of ground allspice ¼ C slivered almonds All-Butter Crust 1 egg, lightly beaten 50 lollipop sticks

— Dani Cone

In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt and sugar, and mix well.

Add the butter to the flour mixture and mix gently with a pastry blender, a fork or your hands. The goal is to lightly incorporate the butter into the dry ingredients. The butter pieces should be well-coated with the dry mixture and somewhat flattened.

Gradually add the water to the flour mixture, 1 tablespoon at a time, and continue mixing the dough until it comes together and forms peasized or crouton-sized crumbs. The dough should look like coarse individual pieces, not smooth and beaten together like cookie dough.

With your hands, gather the dough crumbs together to form 2 patties, gently molding the crumb-like mixture into a patty shape and being careful not to over-handle the dough. Wrap each patty in plastic wrap.

Chill the dough for at least 1 hour or up to 3 days. The dough can also be frozen for up to 2 weeks.

When you’re ready to use the dough, let it sit at room temperature for at least 10 minutes to soften it and make it workable. On a lightly floured surface, roll out each of the 2 dough patties to about a ¼-inch thickness, lightly dusting it with flour, if needed, to prevent sticking and making sure to roll the dough evenly.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place a rack in the center of the oven.

Spray the cups of a muffin pan with nonstick pan spray.

To make the filling, in a large bowl, soak the cranberries in the orange juice for 30 minutes. Drain the cranberries, reserving 1 teaspoon of the juice.

Combine the cranberries, brown sugar, walnuts, pecans, 3 tablespoons of the flour and the cinnamon, and set aside.

To make the crust, follow the All-Butter Crust recipe, and roll out the dough per the instructions.

Cut 16 (5½-inch diameter) circles from the dough. Reroll the dough scraps to make all the circles, and avoid over-handling the dough.

Gently but firmly press each dough circle into a muffin cup. For the edges, fold and tuck the dough around the pie and use a fork and press the prongs all around the pie edge.

Spoon the filling evenly into the cutie pie shells, and set aside.

To make the cookie topping, in a medium bowl, beat the egg until thick.

Gradually add the granulated sugar and beat well.

Beat in the remaining ½ cup of flour, the vanilla, melted butter and the reserved orange juice. Beat well until the mixture is smooth.

Spoon an even amount of the cookie-top mixture over each cutie pie, spreading it around the top as best you can; it doesn’t need to be perfect.

Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until the crust is golden brown. To see whether the bottom is golden too, use a butter knife to pop a cutie pie out of a muffin cup. If the bottom is not brown, bake a few minutes longer. If the pie top is browning too quickly, cover with foil for the final few minutes.

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Place a rack in the center of the oven. Lightly spray the baking sheets with nonstick pan spray.

To make the filling, in a large bowl, combine the cherries, vanilla and almond extract.

In a small bowl, mix together the sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, allspice and almonds.

Pour the sugar mixture over the cherries, and toss to thoroughly coat. Drain the mixture slightly to avoid having too much liquid.

To make the crust, follow the All-Butter Crust recipe and roll out the dough per the instructions. Cut 100 2½-inch diameter circles from the dough. Reroll the dough to make all the circles, making sure to avoid over-handling the dough.

Lay half the circles on the prepared baking sheets. Brush the circles lightly with the beaten egg. Place a lollipop stick across the center of the circle, with the top about ½-inch from the edge. Press the stick gently into place.

Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the filling onto each of the dough circles. For each piepop, lay a circle of dough over the pop, and press firmly around the edge with the tip of your thumb, making a good seal.

Cut 3 (¼-inch) vent slits into the top of each piepop, and brush lightly with the remaining beaten egg.

Bake for 15 minutes, or until golden brown. Repeat with the remaining piepops.

2 sides to cider, both delicious

By Susan M. Selasky Detroit Free Press

A cup of apple cider is a tasty part of the fabric of fall and the holidays.

But don’t stop at sipping. Versatile apple cider can be used in recipes sweet and savory. And cider makers not only have the goods on making it but on cooking with it, too.

When customers buy apples for applesauce at Westview Orchards and Adventure Farm in Washington Township, Mich., Katrina Schumacher advises them to cook down the apples in cider instead of water.

“It’s a way to get more flavor into the applesauce and use less sugar,” she said.

Schumacher, a sixth generation co-owner of the farm, says cider also is great blended into smoothies with other fruits or used for slushes and popsicles.

But marinating is one of the most popular uses of cider other than drinking, the cider makers say.

Richard Koziski of Dexter Cider Mill says cider makes an excellent tenderizer in marinades.

“Cider will make any meat tender,” said Koziski. “It’s a great tenderizer for venison, as it really breaks down the gaminess of it.”

Nancy Steinhauer, Koziski’s daughter and owner of the mill, cooks ribs directly in cider, a recipe from her sister Julie Black.

“They just cook in the cider, which breaks them down nicely and tenderizes them,” Steinhauer said.

She also cooks steel-cut oatmeal in a slow-cooker with apple cider. “I like that you can make it ahead, love the apple flavor, and it’s easy,” she said.

You can also boil cider down to intensify the flavor and thick-

Chicken Thighs with Apples and Cider Sauce Makes 4 servings.

You also can use boneless, skinless chicken thighs in this recipe. They will take less time to cook.

BRINE: 8 chicken thighs, trimmed of excess fat 4 C apple cider 2 TBS kosher salt 1 tsp black pepper SAUCE: Favorite all-purpose seasoning

2 tsp canola oil 1 TBS unsalted butter 4 sm apples, peeled, cored and sliced ¼-inch thick 1 C apple cider ½ C half-and-half mixed with ½ teaspoon cornstarch Salt and pepper to taste

Place the chicken thighs in a plastic sealable bag. Mix together 4 cups apple cider and salt until it dissolves; add the pepper. Pour cider mixture over chicken thighs, making sure the cider covers the thighs. Seal bag and set in another dish. Refrigerate at least 3 hours.

When ready to cook, remove the chicken from the brine and pat dry.

Season thighs all over with all-purpose seasoning.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.

In a large skillet, heat the canola oil over medium heat. Working in batches if needed, place chicken thighs, skin side down, in the skillet and cook until browned, about 6-8 minutes. Remove and place, skin side up, on a rimmed baking sheet. Place in the oven for 30-35 minutes or until chicken is completely cooked.

Meanwhile, pour off the fat in the skillet or wipe it out. Add the butter and melt. Add the apple slices and saute until they just start to caramelize.

Remove apples to a plate. Add the apple cider to the skillet and bring to a boil, scraping up any browned bits on the bottom of the skillet. Reduce heat to low and slowly whisk in the half-and-half mixed with cornstarch.

Continue heating, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens just enough to coat the back of a spoon. Season sauce, if desired, with salt and pepper. Serve the two chicken pieces with apples and a few tablespoons of sauce.

ASK A COOK

Cloth or paper towels in the kitchen?

By Kathleen Purvis McClatchy-Tribune News Service

I use paper towels inQ: stead of dish towels for everything from drying dishes to blotting fried foods. Are paper towels sanitary, or am I exposing myself and my guests to chemicals by using them?

I couldn’t find information on the potential for chemical contamination. If there are chemicals or bleach present, you’d have to do something to cause the paper to re-

lease them, such as heating the towel or soaking it.

However, there is an environmental impact in disposing of so much paper. So I asked Benjamin Chapman, food safety specialist with North Carolina State University, what to use.

While some sources suggest it’s better to use disposable paper towels for kitchen spills, Chapman didn’t agree. When you wash your hands, he says, you really do three things: You loosen the bacteria with soap,

you rinse some of it away with water, and then you deposit the remaining bacteria on what you use to dry your hands. In that case, it’s better to dry with a paper towel you throw away, so another person doesn’t use it.

However, for wiping up spilled meat juice or wiping a counter you’ve cleaned and sanitized, there’s no reason you can’t use a dish towel and then toss it in the washing machine.

with 2 cups kosher salt. Brine chicken, turkey and pork. Use cider as a marinade ingredient in place of soy sauce, citrus juices and liquids other than oil.

Roasting meat and vegetables: Cook just about any vegetable in apple cider before roasting.

As for meat, Schumacher cooks and bastes a bone-in ham with cider. To make Julie Black’s ribs: Season 2 pounds of any kind of ribs with garlic salt and black pepper. Place in a baking dish and pour 2 cups apple cider over (enough to come halfway up in the pan). Cover and roast at 325 degrees for 2 to 2½ hours or until tender. Uncover, brush with barbecue sauce and roast another 15 minutes.

Vinaigrette for salads: Whisk together ½ cup canola oil, ½ cup apple cider, 2 tablespoons cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste.

Makes 8 servings.

2 C apple cider 4 lg carrots, peeled, cut into 1 ½-by-¼-inch sticks 3 lg parsnips, peeled, cut into 1 ½-by-¼-inch sticks 2 med onions, peeled and quartered; cut each quarter

in half across the center 1 TBS olive oil 2 TBS butter, cut into pieces Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves

Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place the cider in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Boil for 15 minutes or until reduced by about half.

Meanwhile, prepare all the vegetables and place them in a single layer on a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with the oil and toss to coat. Drizzle cider over vegetables. Scatter butter pieces over the top and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

Cover tightly with foil and bake until vegetables are almost crisp-tender, about 25 minutes. Remove foil and stir vegetables to coat with the pan juices. Bake uncovered about 15 minutes or until vegetables brown and some of the juices evaporate. Transfer mixture to a serving bowl along with accumulated juices. Sprinkle with thyme leaves and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Next week: DIY Christmas tree — cutting and decorating

Dr. Petteri Knudsen, left, stands outside his vacation home with Ville Hara, Knudsen’s ex-boyfriend and one of the architects who designed the house, in Vaskivesi, Finland. Knudsen’s house, which is built on a remote island in Finland, sports wood-burning stoves, an outhouse, and echoes of centuries past.

The home’s living area is furnished simply, with a custom-made sofa by the Finnish designer Harri Koskinen, a table made out of an old door, one of the home’s two stoves and a moosehide rug. The floor-to-ceiling windows are double-paned and made to be extra sturdy. The house itself sits 3 feet off the ground to reduce snow-related damage.

Finland Continued from F1 The house sits 3 feet off the ground, on concrete pillars, to reduce snow-related damage. The walls are insulated with linen stuffing, and the flat spruce roof is lined with a layer of recycled newspaper 11⁄2 feet thick. The floor-toceiling windows are doublepaned and made to be extra sturdy.

Inside, the house is sparsely but carefully furnished.

The angular gray sofa in the open living area was designed

by Harri Koskinen ($2,750), and the coffee table was made

by Hara out of a refurbished door. The moose-hide rug was a gift from Hara’s father, a hunter, as were the moose skull and antlers hanging by the entrance.

In the dining area, under the glow of the orb-like Louis Poulsen Satellite lamp ($715), is a birch table from the Finnish maker Nikari (a prototype Hara bought for $1,000) and wooden chairs that Knudsen said he “rescued from the garbage.”

Tucked into a corner to the right of the entrance are the only two rooms with doors: a closet and a modest bedroom outfitted with Ikea lamps, a secondhand bed from Hastens and a cream-colored butterfly chair, or “bat chair,” as it is called in Finland, Knudsen said.

The home’s most modern

Knudsen’s 800-square-foot house was completed in 2010 for 250,000 euros (or about $340,000). Its spruce exterior was given a black finish so it would blend into the trees from a distance. “We wanted to hide the house,” architect Ville Hara said, “so that it didn’t destroy the surroundings.”

feature is an homage to one of Finland’s oldest traditions: the sauna. A 258-square-foot spruce structure a stone’s

throw away contains a steam room and a guest room. (The building cost $65,000 to construct.) Even on the most frig-

id days, Knudsen’s ritual is to bask in the warm, moist air and then take a dip in the lake.

But his favorite aspect of the

home is the dense forest that surrounds it.

In all four directions, floorto-ceiling windows open to

small terraces, offering unobstructed views of the woods.

As Knudsen said, “The interior and exterior become one.”

Packing new ideas into small spaces

By Kenneth R. Gosselin The Hartford Courant

HARTFORD, Conn. — Most of the two- and threefamily houses lining Vernon Street in New Haven, Conn., were built in the early 1900s and look like those constructed during the same era in any other city in Connecticut: spacious front porches, flat or pitched roofs and walk-out bay windows.

So architecturally, the house now going up on a vacant lot at 56 Vernon will have plenty of curb appeal, blending perfectly into the neighborhood — with one notable exception: It is about as far as a builder can get from traditional wood-

frame construction.

The frame of the two-family house was fashioned by stacking and welding together six steel shipping containers — yes, those 45-footers that are hoisted onto sea-going vessels or loaded onto 18-wheeler flatbeds — three, side-by-side, for each floor. The interior walls of the containers are being carved out to make way for kitchens, living rooms, bathrooms and bedrooms.

Architect Christian Salvati is making no effort to hide his unconventional building material, either. While the facade will reflect a traditional, Second Empire-style design with mansard roof, the exterior side walls will leave exposed the ruffled, battleshipgray surface of the shipping containers.

“The sides being exposed embrace the concept of the container,” Salvati, a New

THE WHO’S TOMMY, A Rock Opera

York architect, said.

Some neighbors on the street don’t exactly know what to make of it because right now it looks like, well, stacked shipping containers.

“I’ve never seen a house like that,” said next-door neighbor Andres Marrero, who has lived on the street for nearly 30 years. “It doesn’t look like a house. But I’ll have to wait to see when it is finished.”

Salvati isn’t deterred by such reactions — in fact, he is used to them by now.

When he pitched his plan to city hall in New Haven — hoping to get help from the city in securing a building lot — he encountered a lot of puzzled looks.

“I had to convince them, ‘No, I’m not crazy,’” Salvati, 36, said. “I’ve had to educate people on what I’m doing.”

New Haven housing officials say they are supportive of Salvati’s house because it is a consummate green building project, starting with the reuse of the shipping containers, right down to energy-efficient heating systems.

“He’s totally in touch with the architectural movement

and the green movement,” Evan Trachten, acquisition and disposition coordinator for New Haven’s Liveable Cities Initiatives. “It’s modern, very creative and responsible.”

But the city also was wary of investing in such an unconventional approach to building right out of the, er, box.

“On some level, people who are involved in housing in New Haven weren’t comfortable with being involved with some beta test product,” Trachten said. “We encouraged him to do it on his own, and then we could talk about future opportunities. It has to not only be a superior product, but cost-effective.”

This isn’t the first time a builder has tried to use shipping containers as building blocks, but most of those efforts have been concentrated in Europe, particularly in The Netherlands.

In the United States, the projects have been far fewer, mostly on the West Coast, according to the Intermodal Steel Building Units Association, which tracks construction using shipping containers. The industry is still fledgling but growing- with perhaps 1,000 units on the drawing board in the next year in this country and Canada — and Salvati hopes to carve out a share in the market.

Salvati’s project is believed to be the first of its kind in Connecticut, although there have been instances of containers converted illegally, violating zoning regulations, often without electricity or running water.

“Some have said we are not

doing anything new,” Salvati said. “This is correct. However, the other companies, primarily in Europe, that have developed buildings using this technology are not sharing their knowledge. It is their competitive advantage.”

Adam Hopfner, of the Yale School of Architecture in New Haven, said the shipping containers represent an intriguing take on construction building blocks that challenge the building conventions of structural studs being positioned every 16 inches.

“Is it the silver bullet of building? No,” said Hopfner, who directs a program at the school which designs and

builds a new house every year on vacant lots in New Haven.

“Is it a clever use on retake?

Yes. It’s quite clever.”

Shipping containers are cheap, at $5,000 a piece, and have the potential to provide an incredibly strong frame for a building.

But won’t the steel be hot in the summer?

Not so, says Salvati. The exterior walls of the apartment units will be cushioned with five inches of special ecofriendly spray foam insulation manufactured in Westport, Conn.

“The building,” Salvati said, “won’t heat up any more than a traditional building.”

Next week: Winter watering

Mulching Continued from F1 Most importantly in Central Oregon, Stephenson said, is that mulches help maintain a more uniform soil temperature.

Central Oregon’s wildly fluctuating temperatures kill most plants, Stephenson said.

“We can have an 80-degree difference in day and night time temperatures within a 24-hour period,” Stephenson said. “Most plants can’t take that warm-cold, warm-cold cycle. The temperatures can also cause a problem called frost heave.”

Frost heave is when the warm-cold cycle causes a plant or bulb to work its way out of the soil. In some instances, Stephenson said, bulbs or newly-planted trees or shrubs may end up on the surface of the ground.

The Bulletin file photo

Using pine needles for mulching gives your landscaping a natural look, and the needles are widely available.

“Mulching around the plant bases, or over bulbs, can help keep this from happening,”

F5

Stephenson said. “Anything you can do to protect your plants from the warm-cold

cycles will help.”

Stephenson recommends using some organic material for mulch. The material should be applied between two and four inches thick around trees and shrubs and be readily available.

Some of the best organic materials in the Central Oregon area, Stephenson said, include compost, pine needles and straw. She doesn’t recommend using hay because of the potential for introducing weed seeds.

“Compost is a good choice for mulching because it enriches the soil,” Stephenson said. “In the spring, you can work it into the soil around the plant.”

Pine needles are widely available for mulching and give a natural look to the landscaping. The needles will also eventually increase soil acidity, making them ideal for use

around acid-loving plants.

This type of natural mulch works well for acid-loving shrubs, trees and plants, such as azaleas, camellias and rhododendron, and allows water to flow through easily.

Pine needles are a good option for mulching material, even if the plant they will be put around doesn’t require an acidic environment.

“Plants are dormant right now, so you don’t have to worry about the acid harming the roots,” Stephenson said.

“You’ll be removing the pine needles in the spring before it can start to break down.”

Straw is another natural mulch that is cheap, easy to find, and durable. The downside, Stephenson said, is that it can get blown around easily in a stiff wind.

There are not a lot of deciduous trees in the Central Oregon area, Stephenson said,

but if leaves are available, they make a good mulch. Stay away from aspen leaves, she added, since they can carry a mold that causes disease in aspens.

This is also a good time to put down decorative bark, Stephenson said, and it will help protect plant roots from the cold.

“Don’t put the bark down now, if there are going to be a lot of pine needles falling on it,” Stephenson advised. ‘It’s hard to rake the bark and keep it looking nice.”

Probably the best advice for helping your plants make it through the winter is “Water, Water, Water.”

“Water frequently throughout the winter, and make sure you use a good mulch,” Stephenson advised. “That will help your plants survive the winter.”

Green apples: pest control without pesticides

By Anne Raver New York Times News Service

GROVETON, N.H. — Michael Phillips has spent more than 20 years growing apples up here in the north country, 30 miles south of Quebec, and debunking the commonly held belief that his favorite fruit can’t survive without pesticides.

Not that he hasn’t taken some hits.

“I lost 50 apple trees getting my degree in borers,” said Phillips, 54, on a recent afternoon, standing by a Northern Spy tree, one of 240 apple trees on this hilly 58-acre farmstead called Heartsong Farm. He was speaking of the roundheaded apple-tree borer, in particular, which can kill a tree if undetected.

Most growers spray their trees with a pesticide, like Lorsban, to kill the borers. But Phillips uses neem oil, which comes from the neem tree, to interrupt the insect’s life cycle.

He also feeds his trees with composted wood chips, plants comfrey around the roots and sprays them with concoctions of horsetail and stinging nettles.

Phillips broke new ground with “The Apple Grower: A Guide for the Organic Orchardist,” a 1998 book that defied the common belief that apples cannot be grown without chemical pesticides. At the time, he allowed that fungicides, like copper and sulfur sprays, were sometimes necessary. (Both compounds may be used by certified organic growers.)

“I was learning to reduce all that, but I didn’t really shift the paradigm,” he said.

But the more he thought about how homegrown food and medicinal herbs bolstered his own health (his wife, Nancy, is an herbalist), the more he became convinced of the importance of feeding his trees with fungal-rich mulch and herbal sprays that boosted their immune systems.

In his latest book, he rejects even copper and sulfur sprays.

“The Holistic Orchard: Tree Fruits and Berries the Biological Way,” which will be published next month by Chelsea Green, explains how to grow fruit with nothing more lethal than neem oil and sprays made out of liquid fish fertilizer (which has fatty acids and enzymes lacking in pasteurized fish emulsion), homegrown horsetail and stinging nettles (both are high in silica and help leaves fend off fungal disease).

Deeper understanding More important, he writes, apple growers need to understand how their trees grow above and below ground and what kind of soil they need: the woodsy, fungal-dominated kind found at a forest’s edge, rather than nitrogen-rich garden soil.

He also talks about how to prune and how to mulch with ramial wood chips, the tender branches pruned in late winter that can be allowed to decompose wherever they fall.

And he suggests herbs to grow beneath the trees, like comfrey, which is rich in calcium and draws minerals from subsoil. Also, its flowers attract native bees, to pollinate the ap-

Michael Phillips grows 80 varieties of apples, including the ones above, at his Heartsong Farm in Groveton, N.H. Phillips, an apple grower, has debunked the common belief that apples can’t be grown without pesticides.

ple blossoms.

To encourage those bees to stay, Phillips makes nests out of pieces of septic pipe. Native mason bees and bumblebees, he said, are more efficient at pollinating than European bees, which are also scarce these days. “Honeybees are like bankers,” he said. “They work 9 to 5, and only when it’s 60 degrees. Bumblebees and mason bees work from first light until dark, and pollinate all the female parts of a flower, so all the seeds take.”

If it sounds complex, it is.

But don’t worry, Phillips said, smiling angelically. If you plant a tree, you will get apples in seven years or so. (Impatient gardeners need not apply.)

“But that’s good,” he said.

“As the tree is growing, you’re learning.” A beginner, he suggests, could plant three trees in a triangle, 20 feet apart. Dwarf trees need less space, but have weaker root systems and are more subject to disease.

So if you have a tiny backyard, consider collaborating with your neighbors. Or support a community orchard, he said, which is usually run by “the guy who gets so excited,

he says, ‘Honey, I’m going to plant 10 more trees.’”

Phillips’ love affair with apples began soon after he started his first job as a civil engineer, managing construction outside Washington, D.C. “I would watch the sun rise over four-lane bumper-to-bumper traffic, thinking, ‘There’s probably something out there that would make me happier,’” he said. “I retired from civil engineering at 23.”

Soon, he had signed on as a carpenter for a community in southern New Hampshire devoted to helping abused and abandoned children. There, he helped build post-and-beam solar houses and dug up old tennis courts (the property had once been a summer camp), turning them into gardens.

He also planted apple trees.

“And I realized, ‘I love this,’” he said.

In the fall, he took time off to pick apples in southern Vermont. Then one spring, he headed to New Zealand, where it was fall, to pick apples.

“I picked Cox’ Orange Pippins, looking out over the Tasman Sea,” he said. “They taste pretty good right off the tree.”

By the time he returned, he was determined to grow apples organically. He had fallen in love with a social worker, Nancy Spannenberg, at the children’s community, and the two moved north in the late 1980s, eventually settling here and raising a daughter, Grace, now 16, along with herbs, vegetables and, of course, apples.

Their farmstead, which harks back to the 1880s, had a remnant of an earlier orchard: a century-old tree that bears Duchess of Oldenburg apples, a chain embedded in its trunk to keep it from breaking apart.

“It’s one of four apple varieties brought to American shores in the 1830s from Russia,” Phillips said. “They were looking for apples that were very hardy to this climate, that a homestead family could depend on for a crop.”

Thriving varieties It’s also one of his favorite apples, a tart summer variety that makes a great pie and applesauce.

“It has a reddish blush on green, with some stripes, and then the green turns yellow,” he said, with a lover’s attention to detail.

But then, Phillips loves all his apples. And there are 80 varieties thriving here.

One wild apple tree was 20 years old when he got here, and he could tell it had a healthy root system. So he started grafting varieties to its branches. Now, 24 varieties ripen on its stems.

How is that possible?

When children ask that, Phillips answers like this: “I say, ‘Kayle, if I cut off your thumb and put it on Ben’s thumb over here, then everything growing out of Ben’s thumb would be Kayle.’”

Gruesome, but clear.

So is his description of his nemesis, the round-headed apple-tree borer.

“The female crawls down the trunk to the soil line and makes as many as seven slits in a little baby tree the size of

my thumb and lays an egg,” he said. “That grub stays in there for two years, eating the cambium and sap wood, then extends down to the roots. If just one survives, that tree’s dead.”

You could go after the larvae with a wire, but if there are seven, you’ll carve up the tree.

Instead, in July and August, when the females lay their eggs, Phillips sprays the trunk with a neem-oil solution that contains a compound called azadirachtin, which suppresses molting. If an insect can’t shed its skin as it grows, it dies.

Neem oil also deters insects from feeding and laying eggs.

Chemical companies have isolated the compound to manufacture patented products like Neemix or Ecozin. But those extractions “lose the other constituents of the plant,” Phillips said.

Though two inches of wet snow lay on the ground on that sunny afternoon, it was quickly melting, and a few trees were still laden with fruit. Phillips had been up on his ladder picking the last of Northern Spy, a tangy red apple that makes a great pie and stores well. It’s one of those late-season apples that used to get nipped by the cold 20 years ago, when October meant temperatures in the 20s.

“But now I can tree-ripen the fruit,” he said.

That’s the good side of climate change. The bad side is 80 degrees on April Fool’s Day, which brings out the apple blossoms, followed by a hard freeze. That happened last year.

This year it was hail the size of golf balls that knocked half the leaves off the trees, when the late varieties were in full bloom.

“I was afraid I would see all kinds of fire blight,” Phillips said, “because of all the wounds opening into the vascular system.”

But the bark healed. All those sprays full of microbes and fatty acids must have built up the trees’ immune systems.

That’s what Phillips means by holistic: healing from within.

Potatoes on the grill: easy, tasty, little to clean

By Julie Rothman The Baltimore Sun

Ellen Delson from West Palm Beach, Fla., was looking for a recipe she had many years ago but lost for making scalloped potatoes on the grill.

She doesn’t remember the exact ingredients or method, but she recalls that thinly sliced potatoes, onions and mayonnaise, in addition to some other ingredients, were combined, wrapped in aluRECIPE minum foil and FINDER cooked on the grill.

I did not receive any responses to her query, but I thought it sounded like a dish worth researching and testing.

I located a recipe on a website called TammysRecipes.com for grilled scalloped potatoes that sounded very close to what Delson had described.

I tweaked the recipe a bit, and it turns out grilling is a very simple way to prepare scalloped potatoes and surprisingly quick, as well. I cut into the foil packets after just 30 minutes on the grill to discover potatoes that were beautifully caramelized on the outside and soft and creamy on the inside.

A delicious side dish for pork, chicken, steak or just about anything else. And best of all: no dish to scrub.

Requests: Linda Leonhart from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, is looking for a cookie recipe that dates to the late 1950s. She said that best friend’s mother made them, and they had pieces of gumdrops in the batter.

Marie Racine from Huntley, Ill., is looking for a fruitcake recipe that is made with dried apricots and brazil nuts in a very light, yellow cake batter.

Names must accompany recipes for them to be published.

Grilled Scalloped Potatoes Makes 4 servings.

3 C very thinly sliced peeled potatoes 1 C thinly sliced onion ½ C mayonnaise 4 oz (1 C) shredded mozzarella cheese ½ C grated Parmesan cheese 1 TBS fresh parsley, minced ½ TBS fresh rosemary, minced 1 tsp salt ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper Preheat grill on high for 10 minutes. While grill is heating, combine the mayonnaise, cheeses, parsley, rosemary, salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl, stirring to mix well. Stir in the sliced potatoes and onions and mix to coat with the creamy mixture.

Cut two 20-inch-long pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil (or use double layer of regular foil).

Spray foil well with nonstick cooking spray or grease with butter.

Spoon half of the potato mixture into the center of the first piece of foil, then bring up the sides, folding to seal while leaving some air space in the foil if possible. Crimp ends and fold to seal packet well.

Repeat with remaining potatoes and second piece of foil.

Grill potato packets over medium heat on top shelf of grill for 15 minutes. Turn packets and grill for 15 minutes more, or until potatoes are tender.

I glued a broken cutQ: glass bowl back together, but the pieces dried slight-

won’t my popovers Q:Why pop over?

Unlike baked goods A: made with leavening agents such as yeast, popovers get their impressive height from steam. Give the requisite heat some help: Make the batter with roomtemperature ingredients, and then pour it into a preheated popover pan (most recipes call for 425 degrees to 475 degrees), which has deep, narrow cups — these channel the steam upward.

As tempted as you may be to take a peek at the popovers as they cook, don’t open the oven door. Use the oven light to see the action.

Popovers deflate as they cool, so serve them straight from the oven. If that’s not an option, slit the top of each one to keep it from becoming mushy; then remove it from the pan.

How should I store Q: mugs and glasses: rims up or down?

In most cases, the answer A: is right side up. “The rim is the weakest part of a glass,” says Jorge Perez, national spokesman for Waterford, Wedgwood, and Royal Doulton tableware. And that thin edge can chip if set against a hard surface. It’s also easier to reach for upright vessels

ly off. Is there a way to detach them and start over?

Many glues and epoxies dissolve in water if given enough time. Submerge the vessel in a bowl padded with a few folded dish towels (so that any pieces that might come loose will fall on a cushioned surface) and put it in an out-ofthe-way spot, such as the basement. Check on it every few days to make sure it is still immersed and to see if the pieces have loosened. This may take a month or two.

If a gentle nudge will release the pieces, carefully pull them apart; use a firm toothbrush to scrub away residue.

If the soak in water wasn’t successful, try acetone. This solvent is very flammable, so pour it carefully into a container with a lid, and keep it far away from heat sources where it won’t be disturbed, such as a garage. Even with acetone, several months may pass before the pieces come apart.

Once the adhesive gives way, have a professional make a clean repair. To find one in the U.S., contact the American Institute for Conservation of Historic and Artistic Works (conservation-us.org).

But there are some instances in which bottoms up might be your best bet. You may want to go this route if you have open shelving, where there’s more dust. And inverting pieces you don’t use often will keep them clean.

Thai fish cakes that you can make at home

By David Tanis New York Times News Service

A favorite offering in Thai restaurants, usually as an appetizer, is tod mun, little fried fish cakes scented with kaffir lime leaf. These spicy fish cakes are good any time of year and make a fine snack with drinks, served with a little dipping sauce.

But for a light, simple home-cooked meal with big flavors (my goal today), I’ll make a pot of steamed jasmine rice and a few of these savory morsels to go with it, along with a gingery slaw of cabbage, carrot and cucumber. No doubt I’ll also stir-fry some spinach or Chinese greens to round out the feast.

Though my version of tod mun is not completely authen-

tic, I think it is pretty faithful to the flavors of the original. Kaffir lime leaf is used in many dishes throughout Southeast Asia and Indonesia (the limes are also known as makruts, and in South Africa, “kaffir” is a racial insult).

It provides the unique floral, citrusy flavor. The lime leaf is not absolutely necessary in this recipe, but it’s a bit of a pity to leave it out.

Thankfully, the leaves are available, if not from your local Asian grocery, then online (try kaffirlimeleaves. com), or if you become a real die-hard, from the live tree you keep in a pot in a sunny window. (Failing that, you might try a mix of lime zest and minced lemon grass, although it’s not really a sub-

stitute for the fragrant leaf.)

Most recipes call for any white-fleshed fish, but I like to use sea scallops, which give the cakes a wonderful texture. You could also use half scallops and half fish, or add a little shrimp or crab meat to the base. Rather than using a

meat grinder, which is traditional but is usually followed by a lot of hand beating, I get out the food processor. A piece of equipment I normally avoid, it does the job admirably in this case.

The scallop or fish mixture can be made several hours

ahead, or even a day before.

The cooking takes a few minutes in a hot skillet. The fish cakes are typically deep-fried, but I cook them more like pancakes, with only a little oil, usually coconut oil, which adds a sweet complementary note.
