Chimps Inc. founder now says attacks have taken place

By Cindy Powers The Bulletin

The founder of Tumalo-based Chimps Inc. — who denied a history of primate attacks when an intern was mauled in August 2008 — now admits chimpanzees there have bitten off fingers and thumbs of staffers and harmed others at the compound.

In an ongoing lawsuit against the sanctuary, newly filed depositions of the s a n c t u a r y ’s president and Lesley Day, founder, Lesley in 2004 Day, include descriptions of five separate chimpanzee attacks on current and former employees as well as her husband.

Kristen Howard is a former intern who sued the facility for $828,000 after a 19-year-old primate named Kimie beat her and bit off her thumb after passing through two unlocked security gates.

At the time, Day told The Bulletin that primate escapes were rare at the facility, and the chimpanzees had not caused anyone harm.

“Chimpanzees are not out to hurt anyone,” Day said. “We have had a couple of escapes in the past; no one was ever hurt.”

But in a December 2009 deposition, Day described three attacks by primates in which the animals bit off parts of the fingers or thumbs of staffers working there. In a fourth attack, a chimpanzee violently grabbed a “caregiver’s” arm and pulled off the skin between the wrist and elbow, Day said.

Heart of $326M ad campaign:

Alleged dishonesty may get 911 chief fired

House of Representatives, which is why Oregon has five congressional districts and California has 53.

The census also determine’s how $400 billion in federal funding gets divvied up for road projects, job training, schools, emergency services and other programs, the bureau has said.

The agency has been criticized for spending more than $300 million on advertising, but Census Bureau Director Robert Groves said the money spent on advertising now saves money later.

Increasing the number of residents who return the forms by mail means paid census workers will spend less time knocking on doors to get the information.

Each percentage point increase in the rate of mail return saves $85 million, Groves wrote in his blog.

For anyone who watches television, the U.S. Census Bureau’s commercials have been hard to miss.

“We can’t move forward until you mail it back.”

In minority communities, the bureau’s message has been more pronounced.

The Census Bureau’s $326 million nationwide advertising campaign has a single goal: to get anyone who receives a census form — which began arriving in mailboxes this week — to fill it out and mail it back.

The U.S. Constitution requires the nation’s population to be counted every decade. The first census was conducted in 1790, according to the bureau.

A state’s population determines how many representatives it has in the U.S.

Deschutes County 911 officials say the district’s director lied about her relationship with an employee’s husband and could be fired for it.

At a public hearing Thursday, officials for the first time revealed why Director Becky McDonald has been on paid administrative leave for three months and could face disciplinary action or termination.

McDonald had a chance to make her case to keep her job and avoid discipline at the public pre-termination hearing.

The 911 district’s governing board, composed of local law enforcement officials, is considering Becky termination because of McDon- McDonald ald’s “lack of honesty” about her relationship with the employee’s husband, and because her ability to lead the district was compromised, said Bend Fire Chief Larry Huhn, chairman of the 911 Service District Executive Board.

The board voted Thursday to reconvene sometime after April 5 to decide whether to discipline or fire McDonald.

When Huhn and other members of the board asked McDonald last fall whether she was having an inappropriate relationship, she denied it, Huhn and others said at the hearing.

McDonald said she answered the board’s questions as well as she could.

“I answered the questions as I understood them,” McDonald said.

The latest estimate of what health care reform would mean for the government’s finances was such a hot document Thursday that at times the Congressional Budget Office’s Web site couldn’t handle the traffic.

But as much as the 25-page “score” of the legislation was treated as holy writ in Washington, the reality is considerably messier.

The task: Mailing out more than 120 million forms this week for the 2010 census is the largest single delivery ever undertaken by the U.S. Privacy: The Census Bureau does not ask any questions about legal status, and by law the information cannot be used against you by any other government agency or court.

Delivery: Ninety percent of the population will receive a census form in the mail. Forms will be hand delivered to 9 percent, and 1 percent will be counted in person.

82.0 CHOCOWINITY, N.C. — As school let out one day in January 2008, students from rival towns faced off. Two girls flailed away for several seconds, and clusters of boys pummeled each other until teachers pulled them apart.

The fistfights at Southside High School involved no weapons and no serious injuries, and in some ways seemed as oldfashioned as the country roads here in eastern North Carolina.

But the punishment was strictly up to date: Sheriffs’ deputies handcuffed and briefly arrested a dozen students.

The school suspended seven of them for a short period and six others from the melee, including the two girls, for the entire semester.

March Madness — the annual NCAA basketball playoff spectacle in which millions of us, firmly docked in front of the TV screen, consume 1,000 calories an hour while watching young athletes burn 12 calories a minute — begins in earnest this week. If you’re planning to participate in this national sit-in, you can drastically enhance the viewing experience by pondering the parabola.

It’s the elegant arched trajectory naturally formed by any projectile, from an artillery round to a tomato, moving in a gravitational field. Parabolas have been extensively studied since people started throwing stuff at each other, and they shape the outcome of many ballistic sports, such as baseball, golf, football, shot put and more. But they reach their apex in basketball, where field goals and free throws demand precision control of parabolas.

But not just any parabola. Success favors a fairly high arch.

The ball must pass through the hoop with a little room to spare, and that limits the possibilities.

The hoop is 18 inches in diameter, and the men’s ball is about 9.5 inches wide (women’s about 9.2).

So if the men’s ball were thrown straight down from above — that is, at an angle of 90 degrees to the horizontal hoop rim, as in the classic Michael Jordan airborne dunk — there would be 4.25 inches of free space all around, a comfy margin.

But as the angle decreases and approaches the horizontal, the free space for a “nothing but net” shot gets much smaller. At 55 degrees, it’s about 2.5 inches. At 45 degrees, it’s down to 1.5 inches.

And at 30 degrees, it’s basically impossible to get the ball straight into the basket, even with a full scholarship and more tattoos than a Hell’s Angels convention.

Not surprisingly, increasing the height at which the player launches the ball not only reduces the distance to the basket but raises the entry angle of the ball’s parabolic arch, allowing more free space. In a classic study in the 1980s, Peter Brancazio, then a physics professor at Brooklyn College, determined that adding 2 feet to the height at which a shot leaves the player’s fingers increases the success rate by a whopping 17 percent. No wonder you see so many jump shots.

But is there a launch angle that gives the maximum probability of a perfect telegenic swish?

Well, there are many different parabolas that will do the job, and the choice varies according to player height, personal preference and position on the court. But one way to decide, Brancazio wrote 25 years ago in Sport Science: Physical Laws and Optimum Performance, is to “consider the amount of force needed to launch the shot. It is to the shooter’s advantage to use as little force as possible,” he reasoned, because the less the force, “the more quickly and effortlessly (the ball) can be released.”

In China’s north, a host of mummies veiled in mystery

ably intermarried before entering the Tarim Basin some 4,000 years ago.

The Small River Cemetery was rediscovered in 1934 by the Swedish archaeologist Folke Bergman and then forgotten for 66 years until relocated through GPS navigation by a Chinese expedition. Archaeologists began excavating it from 2003 to 2005.

Their reports have been translated and summarized by Victor Mair, a professor of Chinese at the University of Pennsylvania and an expert in the prehistory of the Tarim Basin.

New York Times News Service

In the middle of a terrifying desert north of Tibet, Chinese archaeologists have excavated an extraordinary cemetery. Its inhabitants died almost 4,000 years ago, yet their bodies have been well preserved by the dry air.

The cemetery lies in what is now China’s northwest province of Xinjiang, yet the people have European features, with brown hair and long noses. Their remains, though lying in one of the world’s largest deserts, are buried in upside-down boats. And where tombstones might stand, declaring pious hope for some god’s mercy in the afterlife, their cemetery sports instead a vigorous forest of phallic symbols, signaling an intense interest in the pleasures or utility of procreation.

The long-vanished people have no name, because their origin and identity are still unknown.

But many clues are now emerging about their ancestry, their way of life and even the language they spoke.

Their graveyard, known as Small River Cemetery No. 5, lies near a dried-up riverbed in the Tarim Basin, a region encircled by forbidding mountain ranges.

Most of the basin is occupied by the Taklimakan Desert, a wilderness so inhospitable that later travelers along the Silk Road would edge along its northern or southern borders.

In modern times, the region has been occupied by Turkishspeaking Uighurs, joined in the last 50 years by Han settlers from China. Ethnic tensions have recently arisen between the two groups, with riots in Urumqi, the capital of Xinjiang. A large number of ancient mummies, really desiccated corpses, have emerged from the sands, only to become pawns between the Uighurs and the Han.

Out of place The 200 or so mummies have a distinctively Western appearance, and the Uighurs, even though they did not arrive in the region until the 10th century, have cited them to claim that the province was always theirs. Some of the mummies, including a wellpreserved woman known as the Beauty of Loulan, were analyzed

by Li Jin, a well-known geneticist at Fudan University, who said in 2007 that their DNA contained markers indicating an East Asian and even South Asian origin.

A 3,800-year-old mummy is one of 200 or so bodies found at a cemetery in Xinjiang Province, China. The well-preserved bodies have European features, with brown hair and long noses. Their remains, in the middle of one of the world’s largest deserts, are buried in upside-down boats. oldest discovered in the Tarim Basin. Carbon tests done at Beijing University show that the oldest part dates to 3,980 years ago.

A team of Chinese geneticists has analyzed the mummies’ DNA. Despite the political tensions over the mummies’ origin, the Chinese said in a report published last month in the journal BMC Biology that the people were of mixed ancestry, having both European and some Siberian genetic markers, and probably came from outside China. The team was led by Hui Zhou of Jilin

University in Changchun, with Jin as a co-author.

All the men who were analyzed had a Y chromosome that is now mostly found in Eastern Europe, Central Asia and Siberia, but rarely in China. The mitochondrial DNA, which passes down the female line, consisted of a lineage from Siberia and two that are common in Europe.

Since both the Y chromosome and the mitochondrial DNA lineages are ancient, Dr. Zhou and his team conclude the European and Siberian populations prob-

CHARMING AND SUNNY

As the Chinese archaeologists dug through the five layers of burials, Mair recounted, they came across almost 200 poles, each 13 feet tall. Many had flat blades, painted black and red, like the oars from some great galley that had foundered beneath the waves of sand.

At the foot of each pole, there were indeed boats, laid upside down and covered with cowhide.

The bodies inside the boats were still wearing the clothes they had been buried in. They had felt caps with feathers tucked in the brim, uncannily resembling Tyrolean mountain hats. They wore large woolen capes with tassels and leather boots. A Bronze Age salesclerk from Victoria’s Secret seems to have supplied the clothes beneath — barely adequate woolen loin cloths for the men, and skirts made of string strands for the women.

Arthur Wolf, an anthropologist at Stanford University and an expert on fertility in East Asia, said that the poles perhaps mark social status, a common theme of tombs and grave goods.

Mair said the Chinese archaeologists’ interpretation of the poles as phallic symbols was “a believable analysis.” The buried people’s evident veneration of procreation could mean they were interested in both the pleasure of sex and its utility, given that it is difficult to separate the two. But they seem to have had particular respect for fertility, Mair said, because several women were buried in double-layered coffins with special grave goods.

Several items in the Small River Cemetery burials resemble artifacts or customs familiar in Europe, Mair noted. Boat burials were common among the Vikings. String skirts and phallic symbols have been found in Bronze Age burials of Northern Europe.

House Democrats initiated a 72-hour final countdown Thursday on their effort to overhaul the health care system, unveiling a nearly final version of the legislation that promptly won additional support by promising to more than pay for itself in the next decade.

Armed with detailed legislative language and a report on the bill’s costs from the Congressional Budget Office, congressional leaders and White House officials kicked

HEALTH CARE REFORM off a new round of arm-twisting to line up the final votes they will need to pass the legislation when it comes to the House floor in the face of intense Republican opposition on Sunday afternoon.

With the fate of his top domestic priority still up in the air, President Barack Obama postponed a trip to Indonesia and Australia

that had been scheduled to start Sunday so he could be on hand for the final House vote and a subsequent round of voting that would begin in the Senate next week.

The legislation’s chances seemed to be improved by the budget office report, which estimated that it would reduce projected federal budget deficits by $138 billion over the next decade. Many of the House Democrats who have continued to waver over the bill had been concerned about costs. The bill would provide insurance coverage to most of the uninsured,

put new restrictions on insurers and seek to put downward pressure on rising health care costs.

The version of the legislation unveiled Thursday is based on the bill passed by the Senate in December, but it incorporates a package of changes that would address concerns raised by House Democrats. The scheduled House action on Sunday would in effect make the Senate bill the law of the land but would immediately alter it. The Senate would then have to agree by majority vote to the package of changes.

Alzheimer drug test result may be delayed

By Michelle Fay Cortez Bloomberg News

One of the most eagerly anticipated studies of a drug for Alzheimer’s disease may not yield results until 2012, two years later than had been forecast.

Johnson & Johnson took over development of the medicine, bapineuzumab, when it bought Elan Corp.’s Alzheimer’s program last year. Patients continue to enroll in the study, said Eric Yuen of Johnson & Johnson’s Janssen Alzheimer Immunotherapy unit.

Elan previously said recruitment for the first 18-month study of the drug was completed at the end of 2008, making results available as soon as this year. Pfizer is jointly developing the treatment and has its own studies under way.

The delay is because Johnson & Johnson is still adding patients.

Three other studies are also recruiting subjects. Each study will conclude independently when the last person enrolled has completed 18 months of treatment, said Yuen, of Janssen Alzheimer Immunotherapy.

“This is bad news,” said Guillaume van Renterghem, an analyst at UBS in London. The companies “were really hoping to get the data as quickly as possible.

When Elan started the trial in 2007, people were talking $13 billion in sales for the world. Maybe it’s much, much smaller.”

IED attacks soaring in Afghanistan

By Craig Whitlock The Washington Post

Taliban fighters more than doubled the number of homemade bombs they used against U.S. and NATO forces in Afghanistan last year, relying on explosives that are often far more primitive than the ones used in Iraq.

The embrace of a low-tech approach by Taliban-trained bomb-

makers — they are building improvised explosive devices, or IEDs, out of fertilizer and diesel fuel — has stymied a $17 billion U.S. counteroffensive against the devices in Iraq and Afghanistan, military officials say. Electronic scanners or jammers, which were commonly deployed in Iraq, can detect only bombs with metal parts or circuitry.

“Technology is not going to

solve this problem,” said Army Lt. Gen. Michael Oates, director of the military’s Joint IED Defeat Organization, or JIEDDO. “I don’t think you can defeat the IED as a weapon system. It is too easy to use.”

U.S. military officials said they expected the number of IED attacks to climb further this year as 40,000 U.S. and NATO reinforcements pour into Afghanistan.

ESSEN, Germany — The German archdiocese led by the future Pope Benedict XVI ignored repeated warnings in the early 1980s by a psychiatrist treating a priest accused of sexually abusing boys that he should not be allowed to work with children, the psychiatrist said Thursday.

“I said, ‘For God’s sake, he desperately has to be kept away from working with children,’” the psychiatrist, Dr. Werner Huth, said in a telephone interview from Munich. “I was very unhappy about the entire story.”

Huth said he was concerned enough that he set three conditions for treating the priest, the Rev. Peter Hullermann: that he stay away from young people and alcohol, and be supervised by another priest at all times.

Huth said he issued the explicit warnings — both written and oral — before the future pope, then Joseph Ratzinger, archbishop of Munich and Freising, left Germany for a position in the Vatican in 1982.

In 1980, after abuse complaints from parents in Essen that the priest did not deny, Ratzinger approved a decision to move the priest to Munich for therapy.

Despite the psychiatrist’s warnings, Hullermann was allowed to return to parish work almost immediately after his therapy began, interacting with children as well as adults. Less than five years later, he was accused of molesting other boys,

and in 1986 he was convicted of sexual abuse in Bavaria.

Benedict’s deputy at the time, then-Vicar-General Gerhard Gruber, said he was to blame for that personnel decision, referring to what he called “serious mistakes.”

The psychiatrist said in an interview that he did not have any direct communications with Ratzinger and did not know whether or not the archbishop knew about his warnings. Though he said he had spoken with several senior church officials, Huth’s main contact at the time was a bishop, Heinrich Graf von Soden-Fraunhofen, who died in 2000.

Even after his conviction in 1986, Hullermann, now 62, continued working with altar boys for many years. He was suspended Monday for ignoring a 2008 church order not to work with youths.

Hullermann was transferred in December 1977 to the St. Andreas Church in Essen, an industrial city in the Ruhr region not far from where he was born in Gelsenkirchen. The three sets of parents who complained to the church said Hullermann had had “sexual relations” with their children in February 1979, according to a statement this week by the diocese in Essen.

Clinton’s Moscow trip shows Iran rift MOSCOW — Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Russia’s foreign minister clashed publicly on Thursday over an announcement that Russia would complete a nuclear power plant in Iran this summer.

Clinton said the announcement, made during her visit, sends the wrong signal at a time when the West is trying to curb Tehran’s nuclear ambitions.

The foreign minister, Sergey Lavrov, countered that construction on the plant would go ahead.

The very public disagreement, at a news conference here, comes at a delicate moment for the administration, as it struggles to win support for tough new sanctions against Iran and to improve still tentative relations with Russia.

It also follows a major embarrassment to the adminis-

tration during last week’s visit to Israel by Vice President Joe Biden, when the Israeli government announced plans to build housing units in East Jerusalem. That incident has ignited one of the most serious rows in years between the United States and Israel.

A4 Friday, March 19, 2010 • THE BULLETIN

Health Continued from A1 Democrats eagerly flagged the report’s conclusion that the package they aim to pass this weekend would cut the deficit by $138 billion over the coming decade.

Budget experts generally have high praise for the work of CBO analysts, the non-ideological technocrats who crunch the numbers to estimate the fiscal impact of legislation. But their work is often more art than science, and although the forecasts that accompany legislation are always filled with uncertainty, this one contains more than most.

One major reason is the sheer complexity of the legislation. If Congress were considering, say, a 20-cent increase in the gasoline tax, the CBO could easily analyze how that would affect gas consumption and do some simple math to calculate how much money it would raise. The same goes for figuring out the cost of legislation that offers a new benefit, such as an expansion of food stamps.

But the proposal on the table contains sweeping changes that would touch almost all corners of the health care system, and the changes interrelate in hardto-predict ways. For example, the legislation contains subsidies for those who would not be able to afford health coverage on their own — but the cost of those sub-

sidies could vary a lot depending on how much other elements of the legislation change the price of health insurance, such as through provisions requiring minimum coverage levels.

Although some data can help budget analysts estimate the fiscal impact of those policies, such as when similar policies were enacted in Massachusetts, the range of possible outcomes is especially wide because of the complexity.

“The health care sector is incredibly complicated, with patients and doctors and insurers and hospitals and so on,” said William Gale, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. “There are a lot of layers and interacting agents, so it’s very difficult to predict the outcome of policy changes that affect everyone’s incentives.”

If the CBO did its job well, the errors in estimating the costs and revenues from various elements of the legislation will cancel each other out, and the fiscal impact will be roughly according to the forecast. But budget experts identify two scenarios that could cause the results to vary dramatically.

The bill contains numerous provisions meant to reduce the longrun growth in the cost of health care, such as by funding “comparative effectiveness research” to figure out what treatment strategies offer the most bang for the buck. Insurance companies would push their customers to pursue those treatments and thus

C OV ER S T OR I ES keep costs down.

But the CBO was cautious, predicting zero savings from that program and others meant to develop ways to make the health system more cost-effective over time.

Some health experts have argued that the agency was too conservative in its approach and that those programs could lead to vast savings in the cost of health care and make the legislation a boon for the federal budget.

But budget experts are more wary, concerned that the programs could just as easily produce few savings, or even cause higher costs.

“I think the CBO is quite right not putting an estimate on these things,” said Rudolph Penner, a fellow at the Urban Institute and former CBO director. “If you look at things like the spread of medical information, it seems to me you can’t even be certain that the research won’t tell you that people need more treatments than they get now. If they turn out to offer a lot more savings than I expect, that will be gravy.”

But perhaps the biggest risk that could cause the budget impact to diverge from the CBO estimates comes from Congress. The estimates assume that the legislation plays out as written over the coming decade, which would mean reining in the growth of payments to doctors and hospitals, and implementing a tax on high-cost health insurance plans.

Chimps Continued from A1 She also said that her husband was bitten on the back by a chimp named Patti when Day was taking the animal to her house for a visit.

Chimps Inc. houses eight chimpanzees — five female and three male — and two Siberian lynx and is one of nine chimpanzee refuges in the United States, according to its Web site.

Attorney Steve Vorhees represents Chimps Inc. and read a prepared statement Wednesday in response to a request for comment.

“Chimps Inc. regrets the injuries sustained by Kristen Howard and this unfortunate accident,” Vorhees said, adding that the company “disagrees with the facts, characterizations, and arguments raised by Ms. Howard’s attorneys.”

Howard did not respond to an e-mail requesting comment, and her Portland lawyer, Paul Berg, declined to comment on the case.

Howard’s lawyers have filed documents saying Kimie once escaped and bit a jogger. And in her December 2009 deposition, the sanctuary’s executive director, Paula Muellner, said Kimie bit her on the arm and broke the skin “a couple years ago.”

Howard alleges Day and others regularly ignored safety protocols and continued to take chimps on outings within the compound after attacks had occurred. Howard also says she was misled about security measures designed to protect workers from the primates.

Bev Clarno, a former state senator and Deschutes County commissioner, serves on the nonprofit’s board and said Wednesday that she and her fellow board members are confident in the safety measures at Chimps Inc. Clarno said the sanctuary follows nationally recognized security standards that apply to facilities housing non-domestic animals.

Lawyers for Chimps Inc. have filed a motion to dismiss How-

Census Continued from A1 For the 2000 census — the first to use advertising to increase participation — the agency spent about $100 million to get the message out and saved $305 million, realizing a return on investment of about $205 million, Groves wrote. It also increased a response rate that had been dropping for three decades, according to the agency.

“I’d like nothing more than to return money once again back to the taxpayers following this census because they mailed back the census forms at a record rate” Groves wrote in his blog.

“In the end, the American public’s willingness to participate in the 2010 census will determine its success and how much money we’re able to save and return back to Congress.”

Relatively little of the marketing money will likely be spent in Central Oregon, where about half of the census tracts in Crook, Jefferson and Deschutes

The release Howard signed says she understood the “risks and dangers” involved in being around the primates and that she agreed to forgo any claims for injuries or death “even though this liability may arise from negligence or carelessness on the part of the persons being released.”

“This was precisely the sort of attack (Howard) knew could happen, and her injuries were precisely the kind she is barred from recovering by the Release she admits she understood and signed,” Chimps Inc.’s motion to dismiss says.

Howard’s lawyers have argued that the release was invalid because Chimps Inc. assured her that she would have no contact with primates, and security gates would always be locked.

Documents filed by Howard’s lawyers say Chimps Inc.’s written policies prohibited anyone other than Day or Muellner from calling 911 for any reason and that authorities would be called only in a “life-threatening” situation. “(Chimps Inc.) has that policy to avoid scrutiny over safety concerns,” one document says.

“While there, they roam freely, raiding the refrigerator, engaging in scavenger hunts, making movies, playing with Day’s cat, brushing their teeth ... and wrestling with Day in her bedroom with the door closed,” Howard’s lawyers wrote.

The primates housed at the facility come from roadside zoos, the entertainment industry and the private sector, according to the Chimps Inc. Web site.

Kimie was used for exhibits and birthday parties when she was young and housed in a crate in a garage, the site reads.

One ad campaign urges residents to “take 10 minutes to fill out the 10 questions on the census form and mail it back,” which indicates a significant change for the 2010 census: no long forms.

For the first time since 1930, households will only receive a short form. In previous decades, the bureau sent out a long form that had many more questions about income, education, housing and other demographic information.

The Census Bureau still collects that information, but now it’s part of the ongoing American Community Survey, which began in 2005, and surveys households monthly. So instead of producing demographic information gathered once a decade, the American Community Survey data will provide annual data summarized for single or multiple years.

Suspension Continued from A1 As extra punishment, the girls were told they could not attend Beaufort County’s alternative school for troubled students and were denied aid to study at home.

Their punishment was typical of the get-tough, “zero tolerance” discipline policies that swept the nation over the last two decades, resulting in an increase in suspensions that are disproportionate among black students. School officials here say they acted to preserve a “safe and orderly environment.”

But whether banishing children from schools really makes them safer or serves the community well is increasingly questioned by social scientists and educators. And now the punishment is before the courts in what has become a stark legal test of the approach.

Lawyers for the girls — who are black — say that denying them a semester’s schooling was an unjustified violation of their constitutional right to an education.

The case will be argued on Monday in the North Carolina Supreme Court and has drawn the attention of civil rights, legal aid and education groups around the country.

At issue is the routine use of suspensions not just for weapons or drugs but also for profanity, defiant behavior, pushing matches and other acts that used to be handled with a visit to the principal’s office or detention. Such lesser violations now account for most of the 3.3 million annual suspensions of public school students. That total includes a sharp racial imbalance: poor black students are suspended at three times the rate of whites, a disparity not fully explained by differences in income or behavior.

On March 8, U.S. Education Secretary Arne Duncan lamented “schools that seem to suspend and discipline only young African-American boys” as he pledged stronger efforts to ensure racial equality in schooling.

A growing body of research, scholars say, suggests that heavy use of suspensions does less to pacify schools than to push already troubled students toward academic failure and

dropping out — and sometimes into what critics have called the “school-to-prison pipeline.”

Second thoughts A rising number of districts are already reversing course and trying new approaches, including behavioral counseling and mediation, to reduce conflict and create safer, quieter schools while ejecting only the worst offenders.

“These students were treated like criminals and abandoned by the school system for doing something that students have done forever — fighting in the schoolyard,” said Erwin Byrd, a lawyer with Legal Aid of North Carolina, which brought the suit with lawyers from the Duke University School of Law. The school district says it must retain discretion over punishments.

Some 15 percent of the nation’s black students in grades K-12 are suspended at least briefly each year, compared with 4.8 percent of white students, according to federal data from 2006, the latest available. Expulsions are meted out to one in 200 black students versus one in 1,000 white students.

Zero tolerance and the quick resort to suspensions have been politically popular, but education leaders are having second thoughts. “If our primary obligation is to educate kids, then to punish them by excluding them doesn’t make sense,” said Daniel Domenech, executive director of

the American Association of School Administrators.

Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, said strict punishment should not be the main tool for order. “Lots of schools don’t provide the panoply of services we think are important — prevention and intervention strategies, and alternative placements for disruptive students,” Weingarten said in an interview.

Studies have not found that zero tolerance has created safer schools or better learning environments, said Russell Skiba, professor of educational psychology at Indiana University. He was part of a 2006 task force of the American Psychological Association that called for more graduated punishments and programs attuned to adolescence.

Over the last several years, many cities, including Denver, Baltimore and Cleveland, have moved away from zero tolerance, said Jim Freeman, a lawyer with the Advancement Project, a civil rights group in Washington. Among the methods shown to help, Freeman said, are anti-bullying programs, positive-behavior feedback, and training of students and teachers in conflict resolution.

Toyota resisted ’07 safety findings, escaped major recall

By Peter Whoriskey

Toyota Priuses sit on a lot at a Toyota dealer earlier this month in El Cajon, Calif.

Investigators with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration told Toyota in 2007 that the design of Toyota pedals or floor pans could allow floor mats to entrap the accelerator.

The Washington Post

WASHINGTON — As congressional investigators learned last month, Toyota Motor lobbyists claimed last year to have saved the company $100 million by fending off a 2007 federal investigation into unintended acceleration.

Toyota and agency officials dismissed the claim as an idle boast.

But a closer look at the 2007 investigation, revealed in agency records and internal Toyota e-mails, shows that after federal investigators at the time diagnosed a number of potential dangers in Toyota cars and trucks, the automaker resisted the findings and in the end escaped a broad recall that could have cost millions of dollars.

Investigators with the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration told Toyota in 2007 that the design of Toyota pedals or floor pans could allow floor mats to entrap the accelerator. They saw a problem in Camrys, Priuses, Avalons and Lexus ES350s.

Moreover, they believed that any type of floor mat could pose a danger.

But the company, which had developed a “game plan” for handling the inquiry, ignored NHTSA’s broad findings and agreed only to a minor recall of a single type of floor mat.

The agency, which has the authority to order a recall, did not push for more.

With the recalls of millions of Toyotas in recent weeks, the agency has been faulted by critics for failing to wield its enforcement power and opting instead to cajole automakers to make cars safe.

Toyota unyielding, NHTSA says In the fall, after two years and 20 more deaths attributed to unintended acceleration, Toyota disclosed that, just as regulators had warned, accelerator pedals some floor pans in 12 different models would need to be fixed to prevent the floor mats from entrapping the accelerator. They told consumers to remove any driver’sside floor mat in the cars.

Toyota declined to answer questions this week about its lobbyists’ efforts in 2007 to limit the scope of the recall.

In a statement Thursday, NHTSA portrayed Toyota as unyielding during those discussions.

Moreover, the agency said, while its engineers had concluded that the Toyota pedal and floor pan design could pose a danger, that alone was not enough to force a recall.

“In order for NHTSA to push a company to recall a vehicle for a safety defect, we must have evidence that it presents an unreasonable risk to safety,” it said.

“The investigation was contentious,” the agency said. “After

911 Continued from A1 The 911 dispatcher and her husband, a county sheriff’s deputy, were longtime friends of McDonald and her husband, McDonald said. By the time McDonald became involved with the deputy, both had separated from their spouses, she said.

“This happened when I was separated from my husband and seeking a divorce,” McDonald said. “At no time did this relationship ever occur in the workplace.”

McDonald told the board she was still trying to understand how it was appropriate for them to ask her about intimate details of her private life.

“How is it appropriate for two men to come into my office and ask questions about a sexual relationship I’m having?” McDonald said.

Members of the 911 governing board also questioned why McDonald did not discipline the dispatcher, who was married to the sheriff’s deputy, for using equipment inappropriately for personal conversations with other employees about McDonald’s relationship with the dispatcher’s husband.

McDonald e-mailed the woman in August that the personal messages she was sending on a system used to communicate with public safety workers in the field were a violation of the district’s policy, said County Administrator Dave Kanner.

In the e-mail, McDonald indicated she would not discipline the woman, Kanner said. He asked McDonald whether this was a correct reading of the e-mail.

It was, McDonald said, but it

upgrading the investigation, and after many discussions and meetings with Toyota, the company remained resistant to recalling the floor mats.”

Toyota finally agreed to the limited floor mat recall, which the agency said it believed at the time to be “an effective remedy.”

It wasn’t until a San Diego accident claimed the life of a California Highway Patrol officer and three family members in August 2009 that NHTSA fully recognized the danger, it said.

The agency’s initial suspicions, however, date back much further.

NHTSA investigators opened the floor mat inquiry in March 2007 after five complaints concerning Toyota’s 2007 Lexus ES350. Three involved crashes.

Then, over the summer, it broadened. A 2007 Camry had gone speeding out of control in San Jose, killing the driver of another vehicle, a 39-year-old father of three. The floor mat appeared to have been involved. The investigators began to look at 2007 Camrys.

At the same time, other data available to NHTSA, including insurance statistics and consumer complaints, were similarly showing a rise in unintendedacceleration events in Toyotas, a phenomenon the agency had been opening and closing investigations into for years.

Some at the agency apparently did not seem to consider the floor mat inquiry a serious one, however.

“I ran into a lot of different investigators and ODI (Office of Defects Investigation) staff and when asked why I was there, when I told them the ES350 floormats, they either laughed or rolled their eyes in disbelief,” Chris Santucci, a Toyota lobbyist, wrote in an August 2007 e-mail.

In the course of the inquiry, NHTSA asked Toyota for any reports of unintended acceleration involving the ES350. In a departure from other investigations, however, it did not ask Toyota for any such reports regarding the Camry, or about the Avalon or Prius, the other cars involved

was not her place to discipline the dispatcher. The employee’s supervisors were aware of the problem and followed up with her, McDonald said.

Kanner asked, “As the administrator of the district, isn’t it your responsibility to make sure the policy is enforced?”

McDonald answered, “Yes.” The dispatcher filed a worker’s compensation claim that said the 911 center had become a hostile workplace because of McDonald’s relationship with the dispatcher’s husband, the 911 district’s attorney, Bruce Bischof, said Thursday. McDonald said the claim was filed Dec. 2, the day before McDonald was placed on administrative leave.

McDonald has spent more than two years as director, after 12 years of rising through the ranks at the emergency dispatch center that serves law enforcement agencies throughout the county.

“Now, despite my impeccable record, I’m being threatened with termination,” McDonald said.

A small group of people attended the hearing to support McDonald, including her parents and the parents of the sheriff’s deputy.

McDonald earns $98,137 a year, and the investigator hired by the district to conduct a personnel investigation charged $5,554, according to e-mails from retired Bend Police Chief and 911 Interim Director Andy Jordan.

The 911 district board hired Jordan in mid-December, with a monthly salary of $8,439 and no regular employee benefits.

in incidents NHTSA had been reviewing.

Nevertheless, the e-mails show that NHTSA investigators had already begun to diagnose some of the same problems that Toyota would not admit to for another two years.

NHTSA investigators “believe that something about the throttle pedal or floorpan design lends itself to easier jamming than other models produced in the past,” said one of the internal Toyota e-mails from Chris Tinto, vice president of regulatory affairs for

the company. “They also believe that the Prius, Camry and Avalon may also be prone to being overly sensitive to floormat jamming and claim to have some evidence of such; they claim that jamming can occur with Toyota mats or aftermarket mats.”

‘Serious issue’ Frustrated that Toyota was dismissing NHTSA’s analysis, one of the agency’s top regulators, Daniel Smith, called Tinto in August 2007 to warn that the agency considered the floor mat danger a “serious issue.”

The two Toyota lobbyists dealing with NHTSA knew their way around the safety agency.

Just a few years before, Santucci had been working for NHTSA. Tinto is also a former NHTSA employee.

One of Tinto’s first moves after the call was to buy some time, according to e-mails. A meeting between NHTSA’s engineers and lower-level Toyota staff members was arranged.

“I will not attend, to insure that NHTSA does not try to negotiate any next steps at this phase,” Tinto wrote in the e-mail, which was released to Congress.

One of the key arguments between the automaker and the regulators boiled down to this: Toyota said that there was no danger if consumers correctly installed the proper Toyota floor mats; therefore, there were no defects and no grounds for a recall. NHTSA officials worried that trouble could arise for a motorist who merely drove in a car with an inappropriate floor mat. The potential danger was too grave to ignore.

In the end, the automaker would agree to recall only one kind of floor mat, affecting fewer than 55,000 cars.

Importantly, the pedals and floor pans that were suspected of making pedals vulnerable to entrapment would not have to be fixed. It was this aspect of the arrangement that probably led to the boast the lobbyists made that they had saved the company $100 million.

Company pitches mini-reactor model

The Bulletin

William Lynch is Barnes & Noble’s new CEO.

A Russian company is promoting the idea that the next generation of nuclear reactors should have more in common with the small power plants on Russian submarines. But those marine reactors create a byproduct — used fuel — that no one knows how to handle.

In the model currently being touted by Russia’s Akme Engineering, the spent fuel ends up frozen along with the reactor and stored away. But while the technology caused a number of mechanical accidents inside Soviet subs, Akme’s director contends it can be made safe.

Lynch, 39, joined the bookseller in February 2009 as president of its Web site, Barnes & Noble.com. He succeeds Riggio, who had been chief executive of the company since 2002 and is the younger brother of Chairman Leonard Riggio.

The move comes at a difficult time for Barnes & Noble. The New York company has seen its store sales decline as customers migrate online, and analysts have openly cast doubts on the company’s direction as the book industry goes more digital.

Barnes & Noble has also weathered criticism about its management from Burkle, who has been aggressively buying the company’s stock since late last year.

In a reversal, Porsche takes top spot Germany says in dependability study Greece should turn to IMF J.D. POWER’S ANNUAL SURVEY

By Dan Strumpf

The Associated Press

NEW YORK — Porsche shot to the top of a closely watched study of long-term vehicle dependability, overtaking U.S. and Japanese rivals, J.D. Power and Associates said Thursday.

The German sports car brand took the No. 1 spot in the annual study, which gave it ninth place last year. Lincoln came in second, while Buick and Lexus tied for third. Mercury and Toyota rounded out the top five.

The annual study measures problems experienced by the original owners of vehicles after three years. In last year’s study, Buick and Jaguar tied for fewest problems, but both brands lost ground to rivals this year.

Changes to Oregon’s 529 college savings plan are touted

By Andrew Moore

Universal to test lower price on CDs Universal Music Group, the world’s largest music company, announced plans Thursday to broadly test whether lower prices — $10 or less — on new CDs will attract consumers who have cut back on buying CDs in recent years.

The trial, which is to start in the next few months, will include a random sample of the label’s new releases and involve most of the country’s major retailers, including Best Buy and Walmart, the company said.

Deluxe versions of albums, which have extras songs or features, will continue to sell at a higher price.

Officials highlight new fund manager, oversight

A new chapter for Barnes & Noble

t

A new fund manager for Oregon’s 529 college savings program will mean lower costs and more investment options, including a socially responsible fund, according to state officials.

Michael Parker, executive director of the Oregon 529 College Savings Network, said new fund manager, TIAA-CREF Tuition Financing Inc. of New York City, is an experienced manager and long-standing leader in the 529 industry. “We have enhanced the plan to provide some great new benefits to Oregon investors,” Parker said.

The state also has created a new layer of oversight for its 529 program after experiences with two previous fund managers.

TIAA-CREF replaces New York City-based OppenheimerFunds, which the state sued last April for $36 million after one of the company’s bond funds — meant to be a low-risk, conservative investment vehicle — lost nearly 36 percent of its value. The suit was settled in November for $20 million and the money distributed to roughly 45,000 Oregon 529 plan participants last week, Parker said.

OppenheimerFunds’ contract with the state expired at the end of 2009 and was not renewed. The company began managing funds for Oregon’s 529 program in 2004 after Strong Financial Corp. of Wisconsin was ousted due to a mutual fund trading scandal on Wall Street that brought the firm down, according to The Bulletin’s archives.

What’s a 529 plan?

A 529 plan is a federal investment tool designed to pay for education expenses.

Earnings and withdrawals are tax-free, as long as they are used for qualified college expenses such as books, tuition, and room and board.

Each state administers its own plan, though investors can invest in the 529 plan of any state. In Oregon, families who invest in Oregon’s 529 program can claim an annual state tax deduction of up to $4,170, based on contributions.

U.S. brands had a particularly strong showing this year, reflecting concerted efforts in Detroit to catch up to foreign rivals who have traditionally dominated the quality study, said David Sargent, J.D. Power’s vice president for vehicle research.

Top-five finishers Lincoln and Mercury are owned by Ford Motor Co., while Buick is owned by General Motors Co. The Cadillac DTS full-sized sedan, which is sold by GM, was named highest-quality car overall.

After weeks of backing a European rescue for financially troubled Greece, Germany shifted course on Thursday, signaling that help should come from the International Monetary Fund rather than Greece’s neighbors.

Turning to the IMF would represent a new and potentially humiliating twist in Greece’s financial drama, set off by doubts about Athens’s ability to borrow 53 billion euros this year to finance a yawning budget deficit and refinance waves of debt coming due.

Worries that investors would shun Greek bonds and force a default shook markets worldwide last month.

YouTube Continued from B1 The lawsuit accused YouTube of profiting from thousands of clips from Viacom movies and shows that were uploaded to the site without permission.

It was filed three years ago at the height of tensions between Google and media companies over copyrights — tensions that have since eased substantially. YouTube, which is by far the Web’s largest video site, has set up an automated system to detect infringing videos and signed revenue-sharing agreements with more than a thousand media companies.

As part of their motions for summary judgment in the case, both sides released hundreds of pages of documents and exhibits on Thursday, including internal documents obtained through the discovery process.

Among them were scores of e-mail messages from YouTube’s founders — Chad Hurley, Steve Chen and Jawed Karim — discussing what to do about clips uploaded to YouTube that clearly belonged to major studios or TV networks.

In a 2005 e-mail message to Roelof Botha, a partner at Sequoia Capital, YouTube’s major outside investor, Chen described a system that the company had put in place for users to flag copyrighted and pornographic content: “That way, the perception is that we are concerned about this type of material and we’re actively monitoring it.”

Chen goes on to acknowledge that much of the infringing material will remain on the site, but that users won’t be able to easily stumble upon it.

Google countered that the message was truncated and taken out of context, and that it merely suggested that YouTube was serious about policing its site for copyrighted content.

One e-mail message revealed that even as YouTube’s founders were discussing how to deal with copyrighted clips, one of them was uploading such material.

In July 2005, Chen wrote: “Jawed, please stop putting stolen videos on the site. We’re going to have a tough time defending the fact that we’re not liable for the copyrighted material on the site ... when one of the co-founders is blatantly stealing content from other sites and trying to get everyone to see it.” Google said that message referred to “viral videos,” not pirated media content.

Which vehicles are most dependable?

Continued from B1 Toyota, whose reputation has come under scrutiny in the face of massive recalls, fell two spots from its third-place standing last year.

While average vehicle quality across the industry improved from last year’s survey, Toyota’s quality score fell slightly.

However, the Japanese nameplate still swept four segment awards, more than any other brand, while its luxury Lexus brand took one segment award.

Japanese rival Honda took three awards, while Ford Motor Co.’s Lincoln brand took two.

The industry average was 155 problems per 100 vehicles, J.D. Power said, or less than two problems per vehicle. That’s a decline from 167 problems per 100 vehicles last year.

Land Rover owners reported the most problems among the 36 brands surveyed by J.D. Power.

J.D. Power’s 2010 dependability study surveyed more than 52,000 original owners of 2007 modelyear vehicles between October and December 2009.

The results are watched closely by automakers and are often used in advertising. Owners’ opinion of a car after three years can be a major influence on their opinion to buy that brand again.

Greece Continued from B1 Those fears eased recently after Germany and other members of the European Union signaled they would come to Greece’s aid if necessary. The Greek government, in turn, unveiled a longawaited package of budget cuts.

But prospects for both European aid and domestic spending cuts seemed to fade Thursday with Berlin’s about-face, as well as a warning from Greece’s prime minister that the promised budget cuts might not be enacted unless the country could borrow at lower interest rates.

“We will make it, provided that our country can borrow on reasonable terms,” Prime Minister George Papandreou said in a Cabinet meeting that was broadcast in Greece. “Based on those conditions, our country is not seeking and will not seek financial aid, either from our European partners or from the IMF, which would be our last resort.”

Despite Papandreou’s brave talk, it is likely that some form of aid will be needed to help Greece raise the 53 billion eu-

J.D. Power and Associates on Thursday released its annual survey of vehicle dependability based on questionnaires sent to owners of 2007 model-year vehicles. Porsche took the top spot in this year’s survey for overall customer satisfaction. Here’s a look at some of the top performers and runners-up in various categories.

ros, which includes 20 billion euros that is needed in April and May alone. And for Greece, as well as the EU, the maneuvers Thursday amount to fiscal brinksmanship.

Citing legal hurdles, a government official in Berlin said on Thursday that Germany believed that any external financial support to Athens would best be provided by the IMF. “In the case that the Greeks get into really serious problems, we would support an IMF solution,” said the official, who was not authorized to speak publicly on the matter.

Amid the uncertainty, the euro slipped against the dollar and was quoted at $1.3621 in afternoon trading in New York on Thursday, down from $1.3741 early in the session. European stocks also wilted, with the Athens Stock Exchange General Index ending 3.4 percent lower.

Germany’s new stance could worsen divisions in Europe, since President Nicolas Sarkozy of France and Jean-Claude Trichet, the president of the European Central Bank, both favor a European rescue effort rather than an IMF-orchestrated one.

Continued from B1 The investor recently slammed Barnes & Noble’s board of directors for rebuffing his attempts to raise his stake to as much as 37 percent, which would make him the company’s largest shareholder.

In an interview with the Los Angeles Times this month, Lynch said he was confident that Barnes & Noble’s wide reach — 719 bookstores in 50 states, plus college, online and publishing divisions — would allow it to succeed in the evolving book business.

He stressed that he still saw a place for brick-and-mortar stores, despite the rise of online sellers and digital e-readers such as Amazon.com Inc.’s Kindle and the company’s own Nook.

“In terms of where the business exists, physical books and bookstores will continue to be a very important part of this big industry,” he said.

Lynch reiterated that sentiment during a conference call Thursday with analysts and investors, but also called e-books and digital products “the key to our future.”

Continued from B1 Strong had been the state’s original manager for the primary Oregon 529 plan when it was launched in 2001.

A 529 plan is a federal investment tool designed to pay for education expenses. Earnings and withdrawals are tax-free, as long as they are used for qualified college expenses such as books, tuition, and room and board.

Each state administers its own plan, though investors can invest in the 529 plan of any state. In Oregon, families who invest in Oregon’s 529 program can claim an annual state tax deduction of up to $4,170, based on contributions.

Parker said TIAA-CREF agreed to a lower management fee for Oregon 529 investors and will have a number of new investment options, including the socially responsible fund and a principle preservation fund that guarantees interest income.

A socially responsible fund doesn’t purchase equities in certain industries, such as defense or tobacco.

Bill Valentine, an investment adviser and president of Valentine Ventures in Bend, said TIAA-CREF is a fine firm but will continue to direct clients to other state 529 funds until TIAA-CREF’s track record in Oregon is solid. “(The state) is 0-2 in choosing a manager,” Valentine said.

To address oversight issues, Parker said the state has hired an independent third party

to act as an investment adviser to the five-member board that manages Oregon’s 529 program.

Previously, the fund managers served as the board’s investment advisers, Parker said.

“We’ve made some significant improvements to oversight of the funds, and it’s a big change,” he said.

New state Treasurer Ted Wheeler, who sits on the Oregon 529 College Savings Network board, said improving the state’s 529 program is among his top priorities.

Wheeler took over as treasurer earlier this month, after the death of Ben Westlund. “In my tenure as state treasurer, it’s very important to do everything I can to be a good steward of the plan and improve the plan because from my perspective, it’s the best way to get more families to put money away for college,” Wheeler said.

FedEx quarterly profit more than doubles ATLANTA — FedEx Corp., the world’s largest cargo airline, said Thursday that quarterly profit more than doubled on increased shipments in Asia and Europe as the global economy improves.

Net income for the three months ended Feb. 28 climbed to $239 million, or 76 cents a share, from $97 million, or 31 cents, a year earlier, the Memphis, Tenn.based company said in a statement. Revenue rose 6.9 percent to $8.7 billion.

FedEx benefited from a jump in demand for international air packages as businesses in Asia and Europe began restocking inventory, and consumer spending rose. FedEx and United Parcel Service Inc. are bellwethers for the global economy because they deliver goods ranging from machine parts to clothing to electronics.

Sears, Kmart to post job openings on Twitter CHICAGO — Sears Holding Corp. said Wednesday that more than 7,000 job openings at Sears and Kmart will be posted on Twitter, a move experts say is a

way to advertise and market its brands to 18- to 34-year-olds, the mainstay of the social networking site.

Sears Holdings said the tweets will be posted by TweetMyJobs .com, which handles similar postings from McDonald’s and Motorola. Though Twitter is free, TweetMyJobs.com charges from $4,000 for 500 postings to $8,000 for unlimited postings, said Rich Trombetta, a company co-founder. It charges $1.99 for single posts.

Consumer price index steady in February WASHINGTON — The cost of living was unchanged in February, underscoring the Federal Reserve’s forecast that inflation will remain low as the economy recovers.

The consumer price index didn’t increase for the first time since a decrease in March 2009, and followed a 0.2 percent gain in January, Labor Department figures showed Thursday. Excluding food and energy costs, the so-called core index increased 0.1 percent, in line with forecasts, capping the smallest year-over-year gain since 2004. — From wire reports

MAN ARRESTED AFTER ALTERCATION

Bend UGB hearings begin State officials say there are still key growth issues to address

By Cindy Powers The Bulletin

Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

Oregon State Police troopers interview Roy Hill, 52, of Elkton, in a patrol car along the Powell Butte Highway on Thursday evening.

Preliminary information indicates Hill and his wife were traveling in separate vehicles near Burns, when during a stop, he fired a shotgun at her. Hill continued west, while his wife returned to her vehicle and headed east. Deschutes County deputies and OSP troopers located Hill’s vehicle and took him into custody at gunpoint around 5:30 p.m. He was lodged at the Deschutes County jail on suspicion of DUII, and additional charges are anticipated.

State growth managers and Bend officials continue to wrestle over the city’s proposed urban growth boundary expansion with the state warning that major issues are still unanswered.

At a daylong hearing Thursday on whether Bend staffers have made their case to expand the city’s UGB, Oregon Department of Land Conservation and Development Director Richard Whitman said there are still “key core issues” city planners will have to address before ex-

pansion can go forward.

The hearing was the first of two days of presentations on the proposed expansion by city representatives, DLCD staffers and a handful of “objectors” arguing both in favor of and against the expansion for myriad reasons.

At issue is the city’s appeal of a January DLCD report that concluded Bend officials had failed to adequately analyze the need for housing and employment lands in and around Bend in its proposal to bring about 9,000 more acres into the growth boundary. City staffers

have appealed that decision to the Land Conservation and Development Commission, which will likely send portions of the proposal back to the city for revision.

City representatives said in opening statements Thursday that they realize the proposal needs some additional work but said a 15,000-page record they’ve submitted shows the city did what Oregon’s unique land use planning rules require.

“It is important to note that, despite recent press coverage, we did not start this process

to create controversy with the (DLCD),” said Mel Oberst, the city’s community development director. “Our goal was to provide for the land needs, and we think we’ve done that.”

Oregon law requires cities with a population greater than 25,000 to plan for a 20-year supply of land for employment and housing, and show additional land is necessary for those purposes before UGBs can be expanded.

Oberst noted that Bend’s proposal was drafted to try to keep the city’s character while accommodating huge growth that has meant a quadrupling in population since 1990.

BAT to merge into regional transit system

By Diane S.W. Lee The Bulletin

Bend officials announced Thursday that they plan to merge Bend Area Transit with an existing transit system and begin operating a regionwide service by summer.

City Manager Eric King said city officials have been negotiating with the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council, which operates the Cascades East Transit system, to combine its services with BAT. City officials had discussed the idea of a single regional system last year, but Thursday was the first time they publicly announced a timeline.

“I think it’s the direction this community needs to go toward, a regional transit system under one singular governance structure,” King said to a crowd of about 100 people at the Bend Golf and Country Club during the city’s forecast breakfast.

“We’re making a lot of progress — excited to report some of that progress in the near future.”

The city’s goal is to come to an intergovernmental agreement with COIC by June.

“We hope to begin that process here within the next few months — to have one transit system under the organization of Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council,” King said.

The plan is for BAT and CET to operate under the COIC umbrella. Although operations may be transferred to COIC, the city still plans to fund the service for an undetermined amount of time, city spokesman Justin Finestone said in a telephone interview.

Kaitlin Brenneman looks out her second-story window at a Canada goose nesting in a planter box. Brenneman says the goose flew in about two weeks ago and proceeded to dig out tulip bulbs, and it now sits on four or five eggs. It’s not unusual for geese that are accustomed to people to nest on buildings, said Steven George, wildlife biologist with the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. The height isn’t an issue either — wild birds can nest on cliffs 50 to 60 feet off the ground. And when the goslings are ready to leave the nest, the fall doesn’t seem to hurt them, George said. “They’re so light and fluffy as it is ... they flutter pretty well,” he said.

2009 homeless count

Racketeering suspect asks for reduction in $500,000 bail

By Erin Golden The Bulletin

An attorney for a Bend contractor accused of stealing more than $1.5 million from dozens of customers told a judge Thursday that his client’s $500,000 bail is too high — and a violation of his constitutional rights.

Eric “Gabe” Wisehart, 39, was charged in September with 29 counts of felony theft, unlicensed construction work and racketeering, and was booked in the DesEric “Gabe” chutes County jail. Prosecutors Wisehart say Wisehart promised clients he’d install solar- and wind-power equipment and then took payments without finishing the job or came back to take equipment he’d already installed.

Because of the size and complexity of the case, the Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office has enlisted the help of analysts from the Oregon Department of Justice and the National White Collar Crime Center.

On Thursday, wearing a blue jail jumpsuit, Wisehart was in Deschutes County Circuit Court as attorneys argued over the motion to lower his bail.

Matt Murphy, one of Wisehart’s court-appointed attorneys, told Judge Alta Brady that he’d surveyed jail records and found that Wisehart had the highest bail amount, aside from inmates being held without bail and inmates charged with violent crimes.

He said Oregon’s constitution dictates that a defendant’s bail amount should be based on his or her likelihood to appear in court and added that Wisehart is a military veteran, husband and father, with no prior criminal history and no reason to skip out on his court dates.

“To me, it’s outrageous and not justifiable,” he said.

HOMELESS INDIVIDUALS*

Foreclosure Couldn’t afford rent Unemployed Domestic violence

Number of homeless is up by 7% in region

Greg Cross / The Bulletin

The number of homeless people in Jefferson County jumped by more than 250 percent over the last year, according to the results of a one-day survey released Thursday.

Last year, the annual count organized by the Homeless Leadership Coalition found 89 people in the county who were identified as homeless, while this year there were 318 people.

“Three to five times a week, I get heart-wrenching calls from people who say, ‘I can’t pay my rent, is there any rent assistance available?’” said Madras City Councilor Walt Chamberlain, who is also a pastor at Madras Christian Church.

The overall increase in homelessness across Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson counties was about 7 percent, with a total of 2,402 people included in the count, which was completed on Jan. 28.

On that day, volunteers talked with people in camps, motels and shelters, along with others who turned up at several designated count centers to participate in the event.

The numbers collected every year are used by agencies applying for grants that help pay for housing programs and other services used by homeless people.

More than 560 people reported that they were homeless because they were unemployed, an increase of more than 14 percent from a year earlier. Another 600 said they couldn’t afford their rent, and more than 200 said they’d been kicked out of their homes. The number of people who reported being homeless because of a foreclosure, however, dropped by about 66 percent, from 100 to 33.

At a press conference to announce the

results of the survey, several government officials and leaders of nonprofit organizations pointed to specific findings from this year’s count.

Pamela Norr, the executive director of the Central Oregon Council on Aging, said the recession has pushed more people of retirement age out of their homes and into difficult living situations. She said many senior citizens said they were homeless because they couldn’t afford to pay their rent.

“It’s scary to be that frail, that at risk and that in need,” she said.

Nearly 1,000 children were homeless in Central Oregon, up nearly 13 percent from 2009 and up nearly 29 percent from 2007, the first year the count was undertaken.

In Crook County, there was an 11 percent drop in the number of homeless people, from 275 to 244. County Judge Mike McCabe said he and other community leaders want to continue to make services for the homeless a priority — particularly getting a shelter up and running.

Deschutes County also saw a slight decrease, from 1,873 to 1,840 people.

County Commissioner Tammy Baney said that drop shouldn’t be considered a success because so many people are still in trouble. She said all three counties should work together to take on the issue of homelessness.

“The most important thing we can take out of it is that they are not ‘those people,’ or people from somewhere else,” she said. “They are our community members, who are struggling and need help.”

Mayor Bruce Garrett says the school district’s decision has no

bearing on Chris Gilman’s service in Jacksonville.

Gilman briefly recused himself from the council during a police investigation, but he returned after prosecutors decided not to file criminal charges.

Gilman is alleged to have touched fourth- and fifth-graders on the buttocks during class and twisted the skin on their arms.

District Attorney Mark Huddleston says there was no evidence the contact was sexual in nature or intended to physically harass students.

The Mail Tribune newspaper reports the Medford School Board rejected Gilman’s letter of resignation this week and dismissed him instead. — From wire reports

A deputy with the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office was injured Thursday during a training exercise when he was shot by another member of the Sheriff’s Office Special Operations Team.

The team, which is made up of corrections and patrol deputies from the Sheriff’s Office, was participating in a live fire training exercise at the Sheriff’s Office firearms range east of Redmond, according to a news release from Capt. Tim Edwards.

The deputy suffered a nonlife-threatening wound and was treated at the scene by medics on the team. He was transported to St. Charles Redmond, and was in good condition as of Thursday evening.

The shooting is being investigated by detectives from the Sheriff’s Office, the Oregon State Police and the Redmond Police Department.

The Sheriff’s Office was withholding the names of the deputies involved in the incident until their families had been notified.

Fire damages barn southeast of Bend A barn on Arnold Market Road southeast of Bend was damaged Wednesday afternoon in a fire triggered by a wood stove.

Crews from the Bend Fire Department responded to 60640 Arnold Market Road shortly after 2 p.m., where they found the property owner attempting to fight the fire.

Firefighters extinguished the fire with foam, hand tools and water.

The cause was traced to a wood stove, which ignited firewood stacked within 3 inches

In 1979, the U.S. House of Representatives began televising its day-to-day business.

In 1987, televangelist Jim Bakker resigned as chairman of his PTL ministry organization amid a sex and money scandal involving Jessica Hahn, a former church secretary.

In 2003, President George W. Bush ordered the start of war against Iraq. (Because of the time difference, it was early March 20th in Iraq.)

O Museum exhibit highlights dangerous Columbia River bar

By Katie Wilson The Daily Astorian

Jeff Barnard / The Associated Press

An irrigation ditch stands dry last week in the Klamath Irrigation District, part of the Klamath Reclamation Project near Klamath Falls. Farmers in the Klamath Basin found out Thursday that they will likely get 30 percent of normal irrigation due to a new plan for protecting threatened coho salmon.

Klamath irrigation is cut more than half to help fish

By Jeff Barnard The Associated Press

GRANTS PASS — Klamath Basin farmers will get some water for crops this year, but far less than they hoped for after protected fish get what they need to survive the drought.

U.S. Bureau of Reclamation Commissioner Mike Connor said Thursday it hopes to send at least 30 percent of normal irrigation to the 1,300 farms on the Klamath Reclamation Project starting in mid-May — six weeks later than usual. The project serves 200,000 acres straddling the OregonCalifornia border.

A new plan for protecting threatened coho salmon in the Klamath River made a little more water available for farms, but even this much depends on normal rainfall in coming weeks, Connor said.

He added that he hopes to get irrigation up to 50 percent of normal by spending $5 million to buy water from wells and pay some farmers to leave their fields dry. Farmers will also be eligible for $2 million in federal aid — $1 million on the Oregon side and $1 million on the California side.

Political tension The irrigation cutbacks are similar in magnitude to those in 2001, the first time that water needs for fish protected by the Endangered Species Act trumped farms on the Klamath project. But the political tensions this time are much more calm. In 2001, federal agents were called in to guard headgates controlling

irrigation waters after people forced them open.

Greg Addington, director of the Klamath Water Users Association, said no one believed the water would be shut off in 2001, but they were expecting it this year and appreciate the work that has gone into offering some water.

“People are not outwardly angry, but there is a lot of anxiousness in the air and frustration,” he said.

The bureau has a system to determine who gets water and who does not in dry years, but it remains to be seen just who will receive it this year, Addington said. The low level would likely be enough to keep some alfalfa and pasture alive, but would rule out planting high-value potatoes and onions unless a farmer has a well, he said.

A ‘balanced approach’ Though the Klamath Basin Restoration Agreement designed to end decades of fighting over water has yet to go into force, it was praised by federal and state authorities for helping to avoid past conflicts. The agreement was signed last month by farmers, Indian tribes, salmon fishermen, conservation groups and government agencies as part of a plan to remove dams from the Klamath River to help salmon.

“Today’s decision represents an appropriate and balanced approach protecting endangered fish species and economic livelihoods — as the basin faces what will be a challenging water year this growing season,”

said Gov. Ted Kulongoski, who signed a state drought declaration Wednesday. “It provides the certainty we need as the state begins to work one-on-one with farmers and ranchers on other sources of water.”

Interior Secretary Ken Salazar said in a statement, “The relationships developed through the Klamath Basin Restoration Agreements have made it possible for us to come together and find a way to get water to basin farmers while honoring our federal conservation requirements and tribal trust responsibilities.”

NOAA Fisheries biologists Irma Lagomarsino and Jim Simondet said the new biological opinion was based on peer-reviewed science laying out how much water is needed by coho in years ranging from wet to dry. Spring flows, when young salmon swim to the ocean, are a little lower than court-ordered flows in force the past four years, but flows are similar later in the year.

The plan improves on past efforts by more closely following natural fluctuations in flows triggered by rainfall, they said.

Steve Pedery, conservation director of Oregon Wild, which did not sign the restoration agreement, said government continues to fail to address the key issue in the Klamath Basin: reducing the overall demand for irrigation.

“The drought years of 2001 and 2002 showed us that if we keep the Klamath irrigation project at its current size, we’ll never be able to recover threatened salmon and wildlife,” he said.

ASTORIA — So … what exactly is the Columbia River bar?

When people were leaving the Columbia River Maritime Museum still asking that question, staff realized there was a problem.

The museum’s new exhibit, “Crossing the Bar — Perilous Passage” opens Saturday at the Maritime Museum in Astoria.

It’s an examination of the notorious Columbia River entrance, where the deep Pacific Ocean waters meet the shallow river waters, creating one of the most dangerous crossings on the planet.

Early 19th-century explorer Charles Wilkes called it “one of the most fearful sights that can possibly meet the eye of the sailor.”

It was an odd exhibit to assemble.

First, staff had to ask themselves what the bar is today and what it was historically. Then they had to figure out a way to show it.

“This exhibit was sort of unique for us,” said David Pearson, museum deputy director.

Usually when the staffers are constructing exhibits, they’re thinking about what artifacts they have available.

“We were faced with the fact that really we don’t have a lot of artifacts for the bar,” Pearson said. “But then it was, ‘Wait a minute. This whole museum is filled with artifacts

related to the bar.’”

The key words are “related to.” The question was how to explain the bar without rehashing what people have already seen in the other museum exhibits.

Curator Jeff Smith and the rest of the museum staffers decided to focus on the physical crossing.

“How can we capture that feeling? How can people experience that in some small way?”

Smith asked.

While many of the other exhibits are redolent in details, small and large, the new exhibit is stark.

The lights are low. The menacing thunder of crashing waves and the heavy thunk of massive cargo ships slapping against the water are the first sounds visitors will hear as they enter.

As visitors round the corner, they’ll be greeted by two 6-foot tall screens playing video footage of vessels crossing the bar.

Huge cargo ships toss in the waves like dolls. A pilot boat becomes airborne briefly.

If you watch long enough, the floor seems to ripple underneath your feet. The noise is almost deafening.

Back near the gallery entrance, to the left, a list of approximately 250 known ships — of a suspected 2,000 total — that have crashed on the bar is a sobering reminder of how dangerous this area is.

However, as Smith pointed out — gesturing to a less seasickness inducing part of the gallery

where information about the Native Americans’ long history on the river is displayed — for people who have the knowledge and the experience, the bar doesn’t have to be that dangerous.

The exhibit seeks to blend both historic and present-day experience of the bar using modern video footage (from as early as 1938 and as recent as 2002) and old photographs and etchings.

Even with the wealth of information, the exhibit is still spartan.

The story of the bar is told through videos, photos, several artifacts, a computer-generated map and a few simple lightboxes.

“This sort of setup allowed us to tell stories without being explicit,” Pearson said.

Instead the images and sounds wash over the viewer, painting a picture of the bar.

The staff’s next challenge was to connect this whole visceral experience with something the average visitor could really relate to.

They found seasickness.

“This is something anyone can identify with,” Smith said, “that feeling of uneasiness that comes with being out on the water.”

On a back wall of the exhibit, a sign provides visitors with some helpful tips about how to deal with seasickness.

One suggestion: Don’t go out on the water.

Furlough Friday for The Bulletin editorial page

D

on’t bother visiting a DMV office today. Don’t waste your time calling the state long-term care ombudsman. And don’t even think about contacting the Advocacy Com-

missions Office, whatever that is. Today is Furlough Friday, and these, like most state offices, are closed — though, strangely, the Department of Land Conservation and Development will remain open, its policy wonks hard at work figuring out how to make Bend look like Portland.

But we digress. Furlough Fridays are the state’s highest profile — and certainly most alliterative — response to its budget shortfall.

Most agencies will close a total of 10 days during the 2009-11 biennium, Today’s closure — the first of six this year — reportedly will save $2 million.

As we’ve pointed out in the past, the way the state schedules its unpaid days off speaks volumes. If the state were a business — or if it cared about customer service — it would keep offices open by spreading out furlough days. We happen to know because we take furlough days, too — far more, in fact, than state workers — yet The Bulletin continues to come out every day. Many businesses do the same thing.

We’re not going to cry into our keyboards about this. But — we admit — we may have been a little hard on state workers. Maybe it’s not so nice to point out the fact that most of them pay nothing — zip — for their generous health plans while they’re taking six unpaid days off a year.

And maybe, too, now’s not a good time to mention the crippling cost of Oregon’s pension program for public employees. As they say, don’t criticize somebody until you’ve walked a mile in their shoes.

So today, out of solidarity, we’re going to pretend we’re state workers. Not only are we going to take a furlough day, but we’re not going to produce an editorial. It’s Furlough Friday on the editorial page!

Yes, we know, you paid for this paper and expect us to produce something in return. But don’t get mad. Instead, read the following Draft Letter to Stakeholders (that’s you), which we’ve swiped from the state’s 15-page communication plan for furlough days. As pretend state workers, we think we’re entitled to use it.

“Dear : As you know, tough economic times have severely reduced state revenues, forcing legislatures throughout the nation to make deep cuts in state budgets. Nearly half the states have found that temporary closures and furloughs are efficient ways to save precious tax dollars while preserving the important functions and services of state government.

To address its own budget cuts, Oregon’s state government will close most agencies on ten Fridays that

Instead, read the following Draft Letter to Stakeholders (that’s you), which we’ve swiped from the state’s 15-page communication plan for furlough days. As pretend state workers, we think we’re entitled to use it. fall throughout the current two-year budget period... The Department of [insert name] is one of these agencies. The closures will require our employees to take mandatory unpaid furloughs on those days, saving Oregon’s taxpayers about $2 million a day.

The Governor’s executive team has worked with the unions who represent state workers to agree upon the dates of the closures, taking into account the need to minimize inconvenience to the public. We have thus avoided the costly and contentious legal battles that some other states have endured when public employees have contested the planned furloughs and closures.

Our first closure day is Friday, Oct. 16. The Department of [insert name] will close all its offices on that day [with the exception of , which will remain open to provide critical services]. We regret any inconvenience this closure may cause, and we look forward to reopening on Monday morning, Oct. 19.

Please be assured we will do everything possible to minimize disruption and hardship to those who rely on our services. We will work hard to address any backlogs that may occur, and we will strive to help anyone who has suffered inconvenience because of the closure.

We appreciate your understanding, and we eagerly await the return of normal economic times with a full resumption of our regular work schedule.”

My Nickel’s Worth Obama is scary David Brooks’ Feb. 28 column on health care reveals great admiration for Obama.

“He really knows how to lead a discussion.” The only leading Obama did was an attempt to make Republicans do as he wanted. “Moreover he was trying to get a result.” “Result” translated means Obama’s way. “Obama kept pressing them for agreement.” Of course, no starting over or inclusion of Republican ideas.

After deliberately shutting out the Republicans for a year, the Obama I watched stabbed and jabbed each and every Republican who spoke. He argued that Lamar Alexander needed to get his facts straight when it was Obama who hadn’t tended to his own homework. Obama reminded John McCain which of them was president.

After putting Republicans on notice that if there weren’t going to be agreements, the Democrats would go ahead on their own. Then, after saying he might give them six weeks, he announced the next day that they would begin to act next week.

Obama is scary as a leader. I don’t want him messing with my insurance or any other part of my life. Instead of giving insurance to those who had none and leaving the rest of us alone, he announced why. He intends to be remembered historically as the president who reformed the entire health care system totally.

Corporations win I listen to both sides of the aisle, and both sides have sided with big corporations. Sad. We do need health reform badly. I’m realistic that is part of the overall economy. When households

spend up to 50 percent of monthly expenditures on medical, that’s outrageous. Stop or slow down the runaway train!

Public education leadership (school boards and superintendents) will tread water until the public gets involved and demands adequacy.

Ronald Deady Bend

School leadership

5-day week

Can you imagine anything more ludicrous than announcing that “Oregon schools try ‘new approach’” — with a concept that students receive credit for demonstrating knowledge of key material? Would any parent have believed that students now pass classes without knowing key material? Such is the case (The Bulletin, Feb. 24) in our public schools.

Sadly, your kids’ futures ride on the competency of these schools. Social promotion spelled the demise of quality in our public school system, and now public educators announce many years later that “a new concept” has been created where kids “may” be asked to know material before they can pass a class!

To appease teachers’ unions, weak school boards do things like reduce school days by 20 percent in districts like Redmond. To appease teachers’ unions and teachers, the weakest of teachers are left on the payroll.

Now, we learn that kids have not been asked to know material to pass classes. The endless search for the bottom of the barrel continues around public education.

As a starter, now would be the time to insist that a single district be made of the three (Bend-La Pine, Sisters and Redmond) since two of the three are searching for “leadership” with the same qualities that led us to where we are. A single school board would vastly reduce costs, improve accountability and prompt much greater visibility of ongoing troubled processes.

As if the Redmond School District hasn’t had enough troubles this year, now I am embarrassed to read that our school board is discussing how to circumvent public records laws.

It seems to me that in a time when public sentiment is increasingly negative toward the school district, that the school board should be discussing how to create more transparency and involve the community in its discussions.

Apparently, the opposite seems to be happening.

As for the four-day school week, I sincerely hope the district reverts to a five-day school week and finds another place to make budget cuts. I do not believe the four-day school week is in the best interests of students or the community. It puts an unfair financial burden on working families trying to make ends meet, and the Choice Friday program does little to help the constituents who need it the most. I can’t believe many families or businesses will be looking at Redmond as a potential home as long as the four-day week is in effect, which is only going to hurt all of Redmond’s citizens in the long run.

As for the most important factor, student education, I think anyone would be hard pressed to make a case that the four-day school week is not going to have a negative effect, even with the efforts of a very fine teaching staff.

I understand times are tough, but this is not the way to a brighter future for Redmond.

Americans can move forward by creating dynamic dialogue

By Thiel Larson Bulletin guest columnist

I

have sat long enough scratching my head in dismay as I listen to very angry people scream about taking back the government; as I watch a woman’s face distorted in rage scream “go back home” to a group of MexicanAmericans who are attempting to talk to their congressman; as I have watched politicians rather than decry this type of communication, take advantage of this lack of civility and use it to capitalize on getting re-elected.

It’s time to step back, I believe, and take a broader view of where we are headed. What is the quality of the current style of discourse? There is still a mighty hunger that people feel for genuine conversation, yet we have constructed enormous structural barriers to having it. There is a built-in bias to-

ward debate and polarization that the party system provides and the news media encourages. I believe right now it is at an all-time high. Our legislators feel they can score points by encouraging this venomous interchange, leaving us with nothing being done, and a “proud of it” attitude.

It’s time, I believe, to rediscover the principles of dialogue. Dialogue is a discipline for developing shared meaning among disparate groups of people.

At its core, it can produce a deep shift in our understanding of the nature of power. Dialogue is a leveler. Dialogue in its fullest expression enables the emergence of genuine collective leadership whose highest aim is ultimately to make a contribution, to give, not to take. A conversation where people are essentially trying to extract something from others moves away from dialogue.

IN MY VIEW We must be led to rise out of differences to align with a larger vision. As William Isaacs states: “Power that respects no one but includes everyone, that calls for the best in people, and that evokes great creativity, is love. Dialogue can unleash the power of love” (“Dialogue and the Art of Thinking Together,” p. 395).

No matter what we think of President Obama, we must not give up the dream and vision of genuine change that elected him. We must bring this about and not depend on any politician to do it for us. If we lead, they will follow.

While we spend time, money and energy trying to make abortions illegal in our country, only about $1.20 per American per year is spent on ma-

ternal and child health care in USAID (United States Agency for International Development) programs. The equivalent of five jumbo jets worth die in labor each day in the world. Right now, the amount we Americans spend on maternal care is one-twentieth of 1 percent of the amount we spend on our military (Nicholas Kristof and Sheryl WuDunn, “Half The Sky”).

Insurance companies, according to the Center for American Progress, are raising their rates 15-20 percent in most states as we speak, because they can.

They have strong lobbies and little or no competition. Such important decisions await us while our legislators argue over the size and position of the table where a conversation on health care is to take place.

While we argue about whether or not climate change is man made, Ban-

gladesh is disappearing under water, and people are waging wars over the scarcity of water. Others get rich on the buying and selling of this precious commodity.

We have nothing to fear by creating a safe container where people feel free to give their ideas. Often we operate from memory, develop a partial understanding and see it as complete. Or we may hold rigidly to our views “noble certainties.” These interpretations blind us and limit our freedom to think.

And think we must! We are intimately tied to the needs and perspectives of others. We must not lock out of sight what we don’t want to accept as part of ourselves. We are capable of creating dynamic dialogue and dealing with the complex problems of our times.

Fess Parker, TV’s Davy Crockett, dies at 85

By Matt Schudel The Washington Post

Fess Parker, 85, who launched a nationwide craze of coonskin caps and toy rifles in the mid-1950s with his TV portrayal of rugged frontiersman Davy Crockett, and later starred as Daniel Boone in another TV buckskin drama, died March 18 at his home near Santa Barbara, Calif., where he had been Fess Parker a successful winemaker and real estate developer. The cause of death was not reported.

Parker had acted in a few westerns and TV shows when Walt Disney put the 6-foot-6 Texan in the title role of Davy Crockett for a series of three one-hour episodes that appeared in late 1954 and early 1955 on ABC’s “Disneyland” program. Parker and his sidekick, played by Buddy Ebsen, rafted down rivers, foraged in the woods, battled Indians and ended up in a fateful encounter at the Alamo.

The programs were an instant hit, prompting millions of children to buy coonskin caps, buckskin outfits, moccasins, guitars, lunch pails and “Old Betsy” rifles. On tour, Parker was besieged by thousands of fans.

“I will immodestly tell you,” Parker told the Los Angeles Times in 2002, “it was bigger than anything, ever, including the Beatles and Elvis.”

The show’s theme song, “The Ballad of Davy Crockett,” spent three months as the country’s No. 1 pop hit.

The show’s runaway success took everyone by surprise, including Disney.

“By the time the first show finally got on the air, we were already shooting the third one and calmly killing Davy off at the Alamo,” said Walt Disney, as quoted in Leonard Maltin’s “The Disney Films.”

“It became one of the biggest overnight hits in TV history, and there we were with just three films and a dead hero.”

After the Crockett phenomenon subsided, Parker starred in the 1957 Disney family drama “Old Yeller.”

Fess Parker portrayed Davy Crockett in Disney’s “Davy Crockett.” Parker died Thursday at his Santa Ynez, Calif., home near the Fess Parker Winery. He was 85.

Transit Continued from C1 Bend Area Transit struggled with faulty buses and funding problems when it began running in 2006. BAT is the only transit system run by one city in the region. Central Oregon’s regional transit system, Cascades East, connects cities between Bend, La Pine, Prineville, Madras, Redmond and Sisters.

The recession forced BAT to make budget cuts, said Heather

Ornelas, BAT transit division manager. BAT operates on federal and state grants, bus fares and money from the city’s general fund, according to Bulletin archives. The city spends about $1.1 million a year from its general fund to pay for transit operations — reduced from $1.5 million because of budget cuts and reductions in other areas. Combining BAT and CET services will help the city relieve pressure on its general fund.

“We spend about $1.1 million a year, so it’s probably something

close to that,” Finestone said. “So they would operate it, we would still give them the money to operate it for a period of time — we’re negotiating that right now, how long that would be, how many years we would continue to fund it with the agreement that they would eventually take over the funding.”

Finestone said it will allow people to travel seamlessly between Central Oregon cities and within the city of Bend. If the merger goes through, riders won’t notice any changes, Ornelas said.

Southern Oregon mills UGB hiring after Chile quake

By Mark Adams The (Roseburg) News-Review

ROSEBURG — Economic aftershocks from February’s devastating earthquake in Chile are now rippling across Douglas County following the destruction of many Chilean sawmills and plywood plants.

Roseburg Forest Products has hired dozens of full-time workers in recent weeks to fill a gap in the supply of sanded plywood panels previously produced in the South American country and shipped to the U.S., a company official said Wednesday.

While no one is rejoicing at the devastation created by the magnitude 8.8 earthquake that rocked Chile on Feb. 27, it has created an opportunity for 84 new permanent full-time workers in Douglas County and another 23 in Coos County.

“Our intention is to keep them,” Hank Snow, vice president of human resources for RFP, said of the new workers.

“No one really knows how long Chile will be out of the market — it could be six months, it could be the end of the year.”

By that time, the wood products industry is hoping the sluggish market for new homes, which is now showing signs of life, will continue recovering and increase the nation’s overall demand for lumber.

RFP started adding a few workers in February, and hiring began in earnest this month.

Snow said as of Monday, 65 full-time workers have been added at the Riddle plywood plant, 13 at the Dillard plant, six at the company sawmill and another 23 workers at the Coquille plywood plant in Coos County.

Continued from C1 But Whitman said his agency’s findings show the city has not planned for enough affordable housing or proposed an adequate amount of “infill,” which would increase housing density within the existing boundary.

Whitman said Bend’s lack of affordable housing has pushed lower wage earners into “having to live in outside communities and traveling to Bend to work or shop.”

Whitman also said the amount of land the city wants to bring in is excessive and goes beyond its need for both employment and housing.

Bend City Councilor Jodie Barram, who served on the city’s planning commission from 2005 to 2008, said she generally favors higher density planning

“They’re going to be able to rely on a level of service they have come to depend on, so they won’t have to worry about cuts to services as has been discussed in the past,” Ornelas said. “So they will be able to rely on the current level of services. They will still ride Bend Area Transit buses, they will still buy Bend Area Transit passes, so they’re not going to see visually any change at this point.”

COIC and the city have been negotiating and soliciting input from elected officials and busi-

ness leaders, she said. Ornelas wouldn’t give details, but she said “it’s looking very good” at the moment.

“We’re not there yet, there’s lots of moving parts with all this,” she said. “We’re working hard at making sure that both COIC and the city feel good, feel very confident about the structure of this deal before taking it out for public comment.”

but, in drafting the expansion proposal, officials felt the need to be “sensitive to the area we live in.”

Barram said that the expansion proposal places nearly twothirds of the projected 16,000 housing units the city will need within the existing growth boundary.

Toby Bayard lives north of the city, and her land is not included in the proposed expansion. Bayard objects to the city’s proposal for several reasons.

On Thursday, she spoke as an objector and showed a PowerPoint presentation that included lands within the existing growth boundaries that are open for development.

Bayard pointed to a former landfill off Mt. Washington Drive that she believes might be more appropriate for a proposed university than lands north of the city, where planners have

suggested placing a higher education facility some day.

She said properties in the area of American Lane and Brosterhous road are ripe for light-industrial development and suggested Wood River Village, near Farewell Bend Park, as a potential area for more affordable housing.

Bayard said her interests in the potential expansion were “just civic” and that she does not “have a dog in this fight.”

“I just want to see the public’s business done in the public eye,” Bayard said. “I want to see the law upheld in Bend. We aren’t different. We are different topologically, but affordable housing is needed everywhere.”

The commission has 90 days to decide on Bend’s appeal.

Wisehart Continued from C1 Senior Assistant Attorney General Andrew Campbell, who is prosecuting the case along with the Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office, said Wisehart’s is the largest fraud case prosecuted in Deschutes County. The nature of the alleged crimes, he said, should be a reason to keep the bail at a high amount.

“Racketeering brings to bear certain unique incentives to flee,” Campbell said.

Murphy told Brady that he isn’t asking for Wisehart to be released. He said he would be satisfied if the bail was set at $50,000 or at most, $210,000, the bail amount he said was ordered for another jail inmate charged with more than 40 felony counts related to drugs and sex crimes.

Brady said she would issue a written decision on the motion, possibly by today.

Among Wisehart’s alleged victims are Pronghorn, Aspen Lakes Golf Course and Jeld-Wen, the developer of Brasada Ranch.

Wisehart is scheduled to enter a plea on the charges April 20.

MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL: NCAA TOURNAMENT

In a day of upsets, Big East is the big loser Three higher seeds from the conference lose, including No. 3-seeded Georgetown, and No. 2 Villanova struggles Inside

By Dan Gelston The Associated Press

PROVIDENCE, R.I. — The Big East was a Big Bust on the first day of the NCAA tournament.

Third-seeded Georgetown? Gone. Six seeds Notre Dame and Marquette? Maybe next year.

The No. 2 seed Villanova Wildcats were the only Big East team to advance on Thursday and they needed overtime to get past mid-major Robert Morris.

Georgetown and Villanova put on a pair of uninspired showings in Providence, R.I. — the Big East’s headquarters.

The deepest — perhaps most talented — conference in basketball was smacked around by teams from the Mid-American Conference, Colonial Athletic Association, and the Pac-10.

• Roundup of the Thursday’s first-round NCAA tournament games, Page D3 “It doesn’t surprise me, it doesn’t,” Ohio coach John Groce said. “There’s just a lot of good teams out there, a lot of good players, a lot of good coaches.”

Groce led his 14th-seeded Bobcats to the biggest upset of the day when they handled the Hoyas from start-to-finish in a 97-83 win. They led by as many as 19 points against a maddening Georgetown team that had defeated two NCAA tournament No. 1 seeds this year in Syracuse and Duke.

L O C A L LY Bend skier places ninth in Paralympics WHISTLER, British Columbia — Carl Burnett, of Bend, finished ninth in the men’s sitski slalom Sunday at the 2010 Paralympic Winter Games in Vancouver.

Burnett was in 18th place after his first run and finished with a two-run time of 1 minute, 53.27 seconds. He was the top U.S. placer.

“I’m super stoked,” Burnett was quoted saying in a press release. “I knew if I could just put the hammer down and blast through those ruts and bumps and keep the ski aligned, it would be good enough to move up a few spots — I didn’t expect nine spots. I’m really happy.”

Martin Braxenthaler of Germany took the gold medal (1:41.63), Josh Dueck of Canada claimed silver (1:46.26) and Phillipp Bonadimann of Austria won bronze (1:46.34).

C YCLING Armstrong riled by Kornheiser’s rant WASHINGTON — Lance Armstrong says he’s going on Tony Kornheiser’s radio show to discuss their differences about cycling.

The seven-time Tour de France champion tweeted repeatedly Thursday about Kornheiser’s comments last week on ESPN980 that criticized people who ride bikes on streets, including the tongue-in-cheek line: “They dare you to run them down, and then when you do, they get angry.”

Armstrong posted on his Twitter feed: “Disgusting, ignorant, foolish. What a complete ... idiot.”

Bend’s Dani Hinkley, left, follows Scott Drumm, 44, of Portland, as the two approach the finish during a ski orienteering event at the Mt. Bachelor Nordic Center trail system Sunday morning.

Orienteering, at a glance Orienteering is a cross-country activity in which participants use a detailed map and a compass to navigate through a set course in surrounding terrain. Most events include a variety of courses ranging from short and easy (2 kilometers) to long and demanding (15K).

The object of an orienteering course is to use a map and compass to visit a series of marked control points. At each control point is a white and orange flag with a special punch tool. This punch makes a unique pattern in a card that participants carry. At the finish, competitors turn in the card to confirm that they visited all the control points on the course.

Summit starts defense of state title with victory over Redmond Bulletin staff report REDMOND — Defending Class 5A state champion Summit sent out a fleet of new players for its first boys tennis matchup of the season Thursday against host Redmond.

With so many unknowns, the Storm’s 7-1 victory over the Panthers was met with more than the usual fanfare by Summit.

“We had eight players playing their first matches for us today, and our top player is still hurt,” noted Storm coach Josh Cordell. “It’s too early to tell everything yet, but we have a very good team and I’m excited for the new group.”

According to Cordell, the No. 3 singles match, during which Dylan Lowes of Summit defeated Redmond’s Brent Massey (3-6, 7-6, 7-6), was one of the day’s highlights.

“It was a very close, very competitive and exciting match to watch,” Cordell said.

Marcus James and Carlo Gangan earned Redmond’s sole victory of the match in the No. 1 doubles contest.

So far this season, Redmond is 0-2 overall and 0-1 in the Central Valley League, losing matchups against defending Class 6A state champion Sprague and defending 5A state champion Summit.

“We still don’t have a really good feel for how well we’ll do this year,” said Redmond coach Jim Ferguson. “We were thrown to the dogs the first two meets.”

Summit’s next matches are at Hermiston and Pendleton on April 3. The Panthers are at North Salem today.

blur of orange flashed to my right and I came to a quick stop on my classicstyle cross-country skis.

There it was. I had nearly blown right past it.

I skied over to the orange flag and compared the number there with the one on my topographic map. They matched. I punched my card and continued on my way, skiing fast but constantly looking at my map to make sure I was headed the right direction.

Call it cross-country skiing with a twist. Or hiking, running, mountain biking or canoeing with a twist.

Orienteering — the sport of navigation with map and compass — can add a distinct challenge to many outdoor sports. The object is to run, walk, ski or mountain bike to a series of points displayed on a map, choosing routes to find all the points in correct order and reach the finish as quickly as possible.

“It’s that balance between how fast can you go and still navigate,” said Mike Poulsen, a member of the Columbia River Orienteering Club (CROC).

NCAA Continued from D1 The Hoyas said all the right things after the game about how every team in the tournament is a threat to win. Still, Georgetown had to be stunned it was heading home while a team they likely had no knowledge of on Selection Sunday was still playing. All the national TV appearances and recruiting perks of playing in the Big East were left meaningless.

“They just had all the answers,” Georgetown coach John Thompson III said.

There was disappointment all around the Big East.

• Quincy Pondexter drove for a tiebreaking bank shot with 1.7 seconds left to lift 11th-seeded Washington past Marquette.

• Old Dominion held on for a 51-50 victory over Notre Dame for its first NCAA tournament win since 1995.

The Wildcats survived a scare against Northeast Conference champion Robert Morris.

Karon Abraham scored 23 points for the Colonials, which appeared on the brink of becoming only the fifth No. 15 seed to beat a No. 2 and the first since 2001.

“I think sometimes if you get into a game like that and get embarrassed with a team like that or them outplaying you, that’s going to lose the game for you,” Villanova coach Jay Wright said.

“If you allow your ego to get involved in a game like that, you’re going to get beat.”

It’s not over yet for the conference that placed two teams (Villanova, Connecticut) in last year’s Final Four. No. 1 seed Syracuse, No. 2 seed West Virginia, No. 3 Pittsburgh and No. 9 Louisville can salvage a successful start today.

The Big East is still the only conference to place three teams in the Final Four.

Even President Barack Obama was let down by the power conference.

Through the first 12 games of the NCAA tournament Thursday, Obama has correctly predicted all but three results in his bracket. All three losses were by teams in the Big East: Georgetown, Notre Dame and Marquette.

Football • Agent: GM McCloughan still with 49ers: The agent for San Francisco 49ers general manager Scot McCloughan said Thursday night his client is still employed by the team — for now, anyway. Peter Schaffer, McCloughan’s representative, told The Associated Press in a phone interview that he has “not heard any different” regarding McCloughan’s job status amid speculation he’s on his way out. The 49ers have been mum on the situation. Several reports Thursday said the Niners are cutting ties with McCloughan because of personal issues. Schaffer would not discuss anything regarding McCloughan’s situation unrelated to his employment status.

• Chargers send little-used Whitehurst to Seattle: The Seattle Seahawks, attempting to bolster their quarterback position, traded Thursday for the San Diego Chargers’ Charlie Whitehurst, who has yet to throw a pass in the NFL. Seattle swapped its second-round pick in next month’s draft, allowing the Chargers to move up 20 spots to No. 40 overall, to take San Diego’s 60th choice.

Hockey Ducks’ Wisniewski suspended for 8 games: Anaheim Ducks defenseman James Wisniewski has been suspended for eight games without pay on Thursday for delivering a hit to the head area of Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Brent Seabrook. The incident occurred during Wednesday night’s 4-2 win by Anaheim. Wisniewski was assessed a minor penalty for charging. Seabrook suffered an injury on the play.

Wisniewski, who was suspended two games on Oct. 31, 2009, is considered a repeat offender under the terms of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. He will forfeit $268,292 in salary.

Baseball • Washington also used marijuana, amphetamines: A day after acknowledging he failed a drug test for cocaine last year, Texas Rangers manager Ron Washington says he used marijuana and amphetamines while he was a player.

Washington calls his past drug use a “youthful error.” He did not detail Thursday how often he used those drugs.

• WADA president calls on MLB to test for HGH: World Anti-Doping Agency president John Fahey called on Major League Baseball and its players’ union to start testing for human growth hormone. Fahey said that if they were serious about getting rid of cheats, MLB and the Major League Baseball Players Association should immediately start out-of-competition testing and the collection of blood samples.

Paralympics • Visually impaired skier wins more Paralympic gold: Brian McKeever of Canada won his second gold medal of the Paralympics, the 10kilometer classic cross-country race for the visually impaired. McKeever, with brother Robin his guide, won in 26 minutes, 1.6 seconds on Thursday in Vancouver, British Columbia. Norway’s Helge Flo was second, followed by Russia’s Nikolay Polukhim.

Mixed martial arts • UFC on cable sports network for first time: The Versus Network is airing its first live Ultimate Fighting Championship event on Sunday, a broadcast the sports cable network and the mixed martial arts circuit are both touting as a watershed for their partnership. Veteran Brandon Vera will take on rising star Jon Jones in the light heavyweight main event. The undercard, airing at 6 p.m. PST, includes Junior Dos Santos vs.

Gabriel Gonzaga, Cheick Kongo vs. Paul Buentello and Alessio Sakara vs. James Irvin. Although UFC events have been shown on Spike TV, this is the first time one of its fights has been broadcast on a national sports cable network.

Boxing • Mayweather, Mosley embrace Olympicstyle drug test: Floyd Mayweather Jr. and welterweight champion Shane Mosley will undergo Olympic-style drug testing for their May 1 fight in Las Vegas, which they hope will set a new standard for boxing. Representatives of the two fighters joined Travis Tygart of the U.S. Anti-Doping Agency on a conference call Thursday to discuss the program, which is more extensive than the testing that currently falls under the jurisdiction of state athletic commissions.

Figure skating • Portland named host city for 2010 Skate America: Portland has been named the host city for the 2010 Skate America competition, part of the international Grand Prix of Figure Skating series. The competition is scheduled for Nov. 11-14 at the Rose Garden, home of the Portland Trail Blazers. The venue also hosted the 2005 U.S. national championships. Skate America is an Olympic-style competition that features men’s, ladies, pairs and ice dancing.

Basketball • Losing Onuaku a major blow for Syracuse: One minute, Syracuse was sailing along as the No. 1 team in America, and the next, the Orange became the most suspect 28-4 team with a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament. Two straight losses and an injury to center Arinze Onuaku will do that. Onuaku, who suffered a right quadriceps injury in a Big East quarterfinal loss to Georgetown eight days ago, has been ruled out of tonight’s first-round game against 16th-seeded Vermont at Buffalo’s HSBC Center.

Tennis • Nadal reaches semifinals at Indian Wells: Defending champion Rafael Nadal defeated Tomas Berdych 6-4, 7-6 (4) Thursday night in Indian Wells, Calif., to reach the semifinals of the BNP Paribas Open in his first tournament since returning from a six-week injury layoff. Jelena Jankovic rallied from a 2-4 second-set deficit to beat Alisa Kleybanova 6-4, 6-4 and reach the women’s semifinals.

MEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL: NCAA TOURNAMENT

Ohio stuns Georgetown in tournament opener The Associated Press PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Who knew that all this time Ohio used the regular season as a warm-up act?

The Bobcats’ time to shine is March.

The MAC tournament champion Bobcats, who had a losing record in conference play, have found their way in the only month that matters and now boast an NCAA tournament win for the first time in 27 years.

Georgetown might want to skip the tourney next time it’s in Providence.

Armon Bassett scored 32 points to lead the 14th-seeded Bobcats to a convincing 97-83 win over the Hoyas in the Midwest Regional.

How about a standing O for Ohio!

“We may not be a better team, just got to be a better team on a given night,” Bassett said.

In early March, no one expected Ohio (22-14) to be in this position. The team had just finished a 7-9 season in Mid-American Conference play and entered the conference tournament as the ninth seed.

Four wins later, Ohio was in the 65-team field.

Forty minutes later, the Bobcats are in the second round.

Coach John Groce wouldn’t call it the biggest win in team history.

“I certainly think it’s one of them,” he said. “What it does more than anything is, I think it gives tremendous belief with our guys in what we’re doing, in our system.”

Ohio seized the lead early on its three-point shooting and never had a serious letdown the rest of the way. The Hoyas (2311) made a small run in the second half that cut a 19-point lead down to seven.

No worries. D.J. Cooper, who scored 23 points, made a three to the delight of all those greenclad fans who made the trip and cheered them on the whole way.

Twist

Sponsor’s exemption leads at PGA Tour tourney

Continued from D1 “Because the faster you go the stupider you get, and you make mistakes.”

A “ski-O” — an orienteering race on cross-country skis — staged this past Sunday at the Mt. Bachelor Nordic Center and hosted by CROC, attracted several local orienteering enthusiasts. Routes of 3 kilometers, 7K and 10K were offered.

I decided to try the 3K, figuring the short course was my best bet.

This was more than a mere cross-country ski. It was a treasure hunt of sorts, but a way for a participant to know his or her precise whereabouts at all times, a good skill for any outdoors enthusiast.

Each time I found an orange marker — numbered in order from 1 through 9 — I had a feeling of satisfaction, but then it was on to find the next. I made one big mistake and had to double back to find one marker tucked away off the groomed trail in powder snow.

By the time I reached the finish back at the nordic center, I was feeling good — until I saw my time. I needed 49 minutes and 55 seconds to go 3 kilometers. Pretty sad, considering the winning time for the 10K was just 13 minutes more.

But, hey, it was my first ski-O. Ski orienteering meets are different from hike or run orienteering events. In ski-Os, the markers are typically located along the groomed trails, and most of the navigation is a matter of figuring out where to go left or right without the need for a compass.

In foot orienteering, competitors must locate natural features such as a boulder, a tree or a hilltop, and the flag is often not visible.

“That can be very technical, where you have to have precise descriptions of what you’re looking for, because you’ll be in the middle of the woods, 1,000 meters from any trail, and you’ll be looking for a one-meter boulder,” Poulsen explained. “You’re looking for natural features. In ski,

The Associated Press PALM HARBOR, Fla. — Padraig Harrington didn’t have the best score at Innisbrook, just one of the biggest smiles.

He finished his opening round Thursday at the Transitions Championship by holing out a bunker shot for birdie on the 18th hole, then happily shared memories of his first trip to the White House and a St. Patrick’s Day celebration with President Barack Obama.

Garrett Willis, who only learned two weeks ago that he received an exemption to his hometown event, made five birdies on the back for a 6under 65 and a two-shot lead over defending champion Retief Goosen and five others.

Harrington had to settle for a 69 in his first trip to Innisbrook.

It was the day before — a whirlwind trip to Washington for his favorite holiday — that kept him so upbeat. He explored various rooms in the White House, then went to a gala hosted by Obama and Ireland’s prime minister.

The only regret? Not taking the opportunity to greet Obama.

“When it finished off, people obviously were going up to say ‘Hello,’ and I sort of stayed back,” Harrington said. “I missed the opportunity, but it will happen again. And the end of the day, it was just nice to be there. I was close enough, let’s say.”

It was not the first trip to Innisbrook for Willis, who knows this course well from living about 40 miles up the highway. His trouble was getting into the tournament. Willis figured that he would be a lock for this event, but the field is stronger than ever — 14 of the top 25 in the world — and he needed a late sponsor’s exemption to get a tee time.

His round turned after getting into trouble on the 10th, where he drove into the trees and then went over the green.

Instead of another bogey, he chipped in for birdie, the first of three in a row.

“Next thing you know, it was just birdie after birdie,” Willis said, who picked them up on the par 5s, and with a pair of 15-foot putts.

Jeff Maggert shot a 4-under 67 to join Goosen, Jim Furyk, Carl Pettersson, Jonathan Byrd and PGA Tour rookie Rickie Fowler.

Also on Thursday: Englishman leads in Morocco RABAT, Morocco — Nick Dougherty of England has taken the lead after the first round of the Trophee Hassan II golf tournament. Dougherty finished with a 7-under 66. Six players — Ireland’s Peter Lawrie, Scotland’s Stephen Gallacher, Italy’s Francesco Molinari, Shiv Shankar Prasad Chowrasia of India, Argentina’s Ricardo Gonzalez and Paraguay’s Fabrizio Zanotti — are one shot behind.

Course-setter Mike Poulsen, left, tells Dani Hinkley about map corrections in the course at the start-finish area of the ski orienteering event on the Mt. Bachelor Nordic Center trail system on Sunday morning. it’s just a circle on a map.”

The key in many orienteering events is to keep going the right direction. Speed is of little consequence if you’re going the wrong way.

“I like to tell runners in our clinics, if you’re running really, really fast in the wrong direction,” Poulsen said, “you’re just getting lost that much faster than everybody else.”

Bend’s Kerie Raymond, who organized Sunday’s ski-O, said she likes how the navigation aspect of orienteering can help level the playing field.

“It’s like the tortoise and the hare,” Raymond said. “When you have a really fast guy, he might be faster than a woman in a flatout running race. But the woman can beat him in orienteering because it’s not just running, it’s using your brain.”

A foot orienteering meet is typically staged at Dutchman Flat near Bachelor each summer.

In 2005, the U.S. Orienteering Championships were held there.

The Big Muddy Ranch Rogaine 5 is scheduled to take place May 29-30 near Antelope in northern Central Oregon. The Rogaine is a 24-hour event in which orienteering competitors choose their checkpoints and earn more points for locating the harder-

to-find flags. But they must be back to the finish in an allotted amount of time.

“The Rogaine Championships, that’s kind of the pinnacle of it all,” Raymond said.

For some competitors, orienteering can lead to adventure racing — a combination of running, mountain biking, climbing, paddling and navigation.

“Generally, if they come to an orienteering meet and work their way up to the intermediate level of orienteering, they’ll do great in an adventure race,” Poulsen said.

He added that orienteers often like to discuss their mistakes with other participants, learning the best way to negotiate a route.

For example: When is it better to go around or over a certain hill?

“Orienteers make mistakes all the time, even the elite ones,” Poulsen said. “Of course, they measure their mistakes in seconds: ‘I made a 10-second error there.’ The rest of us, ‘I made a 10-minute error there.’

“You can explain all your errors to each other — that’s how you learn. It’s always thinking.

It’s definitely a thinking game.”

Several Central Oregon firefighters raced to high finishes at the 2010 Firefighter Stair Climb Challenge, held March 7 in Seattle.

The event is a fundraiser for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society and draws firefighters from around the world to climb 69 floors of Seattle’s tallest building, the Columbia Center.

Participants performed the climb while wearing more than 60 pounds of protective gear — including air tank and mask — as they climbed 1,311 steps. At 788 feet, the Columbia Center is the second-tallest building in the United States west of the Mississippi River.

Central Oregon firefighters from Bend, Sisters-Camp Sherman, Sunriver, Black Butte Ranch and Crook County competed.

Bend Captain Scott Wyman, 38, posted the fastest time among the Central Oregon crew, racing to the top in 14 minutes, 20.5 seconds. He finished 29th overall out of the 1,294 firefighters who completed the climb. (For complete results of Central Oregon firefighters, at right).

The Bend Fire team placed 15th overall and as of this week has raised more than $13,000 for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, according to a Bend Firefighters Association press release. Sisters-Camp Sherman finished 67th, Sunriver was 86th, and Black Butte Ranch placed 97th.

Each of the Bend firefighters carried with him or her a photograph of Daniel Carreon, an 8-year-old boy from Bend who is currently battling lymphoblastic lymphoma.

F A M I LY IN BRIEF Kids recognize brands at even younger age Children ages 3-5 can recognize commercial brands, according to a recent study published in Psychology & Marketing magazine.

Young children were shown a brand logo and asked if they had seen it before. Then they were asked what types of things it made. The most commonly recognized brand was McDonald’s, with 92 percent of kids recognizing it. Other brands of fast food, soda and toys followed. Researchers found children were most likely to recognize brands that were marketed to them.

Co-author of the study Bettina Cornwell stated that before this study, research suggested brand symbolism didn’t develop until age 7 or 8. These results show it can happen much earlier.

Fun ideas for spring break

Write a note and send a picture to grandparents through the U.S. Postal Service.

But for the parents, the break brings a big question:

What to do?

Here are some ideas for parents staying home with kids, looking for ways to make their own fun.

Sure, families know about watching movies together. But parents could delve a little deeper during spring break and come up with something other than watching “Finding Nemo” or “Star Wars” for the 50th time. Common Sense Media (www.common sensemedia.org) offers basic information about content so parents can ensure a movie is appropriate, while also offering parent and kid reviews.

Parents can find recommendations for lesserknown films (“My Neighbor Totoro” anyone?) or get reminders about older movies (“Willow”). The site also reviews books, music and video games.

CLEAN UP FOR CASH

Encourage kids to go through their closets and purge items. Afterward, parents and youngsters can take them to a local consignment shop to see if they can get any new clothes or cash for their things, which may help motivate kids.

Try out a bunch of different methods and see which one works the best. A couple good Web sites are www.10paperairplanes.com, www.amazingpaperairplanes.com and www .paperairplanes.co.uk.

GET ONLINE There are tons of great Web sites for kids out there, but it’s hard to sift through all the junk to find the good stuff. The American Library Association has done some of the hard work: www.ala .org/greatsites.

hen I was little, I was always told, “You can be whatever you want to be.” Consistently and constantly I was informed that nothing is impossible, that I could become anything I wanted, from a mom to president of the United States. The only limit on what I could become was my imagination.

My dreams were constantly changing. I wanted to be a whale trainer at

ERIENNE McCRAY SeaWorld. I wanted to be a veterinarian. I wanted to be an actress. I wanted to get my letter from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and become a witch. And, with the possible exception of being a witch,

Ever since middle school, I’ve wanted to become a best-selling novelist. Not necessarily for the money, but more for the knowledge that people would actually be reading and enjoying my work.

I was encouraged in all my fantasy, dreams and delights.

Almost anyone who has ever stood on stage and played a character has wondered what it would be like to earn a living in an acting career. Nearly every-

body who has played a sport has fantasized about becoming an Olympic athlete or playing on a national team. Every kid who has ever lived has thought about what it would be like to be famous.

Family-owned business puts family first in tough times Dear Abby: I’m a career woman, working for a family-owned business. Last year was difficult because there have been a number of layoffs and no raises.

When I had my annual review, I received an outstanding evaluation but was again told no raise would be forthcoming because business is slow.

I could understand this because of the current economy if the owners of the company weren’t taking expensive vacations and buying new luxury cars.

I have a hard time accepting there’s no money for raises when they spend so extravagantly. I understand it’s not my business how they spend their money, but it’s difficult to swallow when I feel so taken advantage of. I’m not the only one here feeling the way I do, and it’s beginning to create a hostile environment.

Am I wrong to feel this way?

— Bitter in The Northeast Dear Bitter: If your employers are claiming poverty while indulging in conspicuous consumption, your feelings are understandable.

And as soon as the job market improves, I’m sure you will be only a part of the stampede of fellow employees seeking another job.

With your outstanding reviews it shouldn’t be too difficult to find one. Bide your time ...

Dear Abby: My daughter is being married in the fall and she has asked me to be her matron of honor. She has been through a lot, and I have supported her all the way. She says I am the only one who had faith in her, encouraged her and loved her no matter what.

Are moms supposed to be in their daughters’ weddings? She doesn’t want her dad in the wedding, so this makes it difficult. I am honored that she wants me to be her matron of honor. If her dad isn’t in the wedding, should I be in it? I don’t want any hard feelings from the other family members.

— Donna in South Carolina Dear Donna: If what your daughter said is true, and you Serving Central Oregon Since 1946

D E AR ABBY were the only one who had faith in her and loved her unconditionally, then you should accept her offer to stand with her at the altar.

And yes, it has been done before.

Dear Abby: I am a freelance writer who works from home. I have flexibility when it comes to my work hours, but I decide that on my own terms. I have lost count of the number of times friends and family have asked me to baby-sit, have lunch or go out shopping with them because, according to them, writing isn’t “real work” and working from home means having no fixed hours.

Last week my husband called me from his office and asked me to bring him some documents he had forgotten at home. When I realized it wasn’t urgent, I told him no and that he had interrupted my train of thought. He has been sulking for days. Was I wrong?

In this digital age, with more people working from home, it still means adhering to a schedule.

Oh, and one more thing — please remind your readers that writing is very much a REAL job.

— Freelance Writer in Tennessee Dear Freelance Writer: Consider it done. Writing requires concentration, and it IS a very real job. However, you may be bringing some of your problems on yourself by not informing your friends and family that you write between certain hours every day. And an effective way to isolate yourself and ensure you won’t be interrupted by annoying phone calls would be to turn your phone off during the hours that you’re writing.

Dear Abby is written by Abigail Van Buren, also known as Jeanne Phillips, and was founded by her mother, Pauline Phillips. Write Dear Abby at www.DearAbby .com or P.O. Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069.

‘Reaper’s’ Labine returns in ‘Sons of Tucson’

By Luaine Lee

Ron Snuffkin (Tyler Labine), second from left, becomes a dad-for-hire when three brothers, from left, Benjamin Stockham, Frank Dolce and Matthew Levy find themselves in need of a father in the new Fox comedy “Sons of Tucson.”

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

PASADENA, Calif. — When Tyler Labine was a kid actor he never played the Beaver Cleaver role, but was always Eddie Haskell.

“In school I was always the jerky guy. Early in my career that’s all I played. I was this sweet, round-faced kid, but I always played the bully.”

The trouble was that Labine, who’s best known as the goof-off pal from “Reaper,” had an older and a younger brother, who were also actors and working more than he did. When the family moved from their suburban home outside of Toronto to Vancouver, B.C., their mom (and part-time manager) found them an agent.

“And he wanted my two brothers but he didn’t want me,” said Labine, on a cloudy afternoon in a hotel lounge here. “‘I don’t want the chubby one, I want the other two.’

And my mom said, ‘No, it’s a package deal, you take all of them or you don’t get any of them.’ Because my little brother, Kyle, had become a bit of a child star and my brother, Cam, had done quite a bit more work than me, too, my mom made him take me.

Right away I did an ‘X Files’ and ‘Millennium’ and ‘First Wave’ and ‘Twilight Zone.’”

He was 13.

“When I hit 16, I grew five inches and started working a lot, but it was still guest-star roles. It wasn’t like I had a lead on a TV show or did a big part in a movie. I did bit parts — the ones they tend to give to Canadians in Vancouver.”

Labine’s in Los Angeles now and is starring in Fox’s new comedy, “Sons of Tucson.” He plays a ne’er-do-well again who is hired by three brothers to pose as their dad, their worst possible choice.

‘Sons of Tucson’ When: 8:30 p.m. Sundays Where: Fox

But Labine isn’t anything like the slumdogs and wastrels he plays. In real life, he’s an inveterate romantic. He remembers when he first came to L.A. and had to leave behind his girlfriend of a year.

“I just packed up everything and moved down here and lived with Ryan Gosling for a while.

She was still up there. We decided to do a long-distance relationship and it worked.

“I remember leaving the airport. My whole family was there and we were crying. I felt it was the end of that part of my life, and this was the new part.

When I landed in L.A. I’d never seen such a sprawling city in my life, from the window in the airplane. As soon as the wheels touched down I started to cry on the plane. I tried to look like I’m not crying. ‘What am I doing? I don’t want to do this. I want to go home.’

“I got to my friend’s house and looking up at the sky — L.A.’s sky at night is green and I was

like, ‘Those are all the broken dreams hanging over the city.’

They manifested themselves in this green veil over the city. I was traumatized to say the least, but then I went right to work.”

But one of those jobs almost ruined Labine’s life. “For the first time I was playing opposite of a female, who was my girlfriend on the show. And I got very confused. I’d been with my girlfriend for 4½ years at that point. I thought I was falling in love with my costar, sort of the magpie syndrome, that shiny thing I was like, ‘Whewww.’

And I got very confused and I broke up with my girlfriend, with Carrie, because I wanted to be with this girl.”

Carrie Ruscheinsky was living with Labine in L.A. at the time.

“She moved back to Vancouver and we spent a year apart and after a month I realized I’d made a mistake and wanted her back.

But she didn’t want me back; I’d broken some trust there. I had to work very, very hard and moved back to Vancouver after eight months and tried to woo her back. Those eight months were really hard out here in L.A. by myself. I was living with a roommate just ordering pizza and playing Tiger Woods Golf, eating

myself into a deep depression, crying myself to sleep. I knew I’d made a mistake, not that I was just missing what I’d become accustomed to. That was the one.

That was THE girl.”

He did eventually win Carrie back and married her. “People say the ring is a trinket, or it’s just a piece of paper. I feel like if you’re getting married, it should change you, it should change you for the better. I love deeper than I ever thought I could with my wife, and the prospect of having a family and just doing the things you do when you’re married, it’s different, even though we were together for a long time. It’s a joint endeavor. You’re on a path together irrevocably. You’re married, you’re not dating, you can’t break up. You’re going to stick it out, and I like that responsibility.

It brought out something good in me.”

Zachary Gordon, left, is the star of the PG-rated comedy “Diary of a Wimpy Kid.� See the full review in today’s GO! Magazine.

By Roger Moore The Orlando (Fla.) Sentinel

‘Diary of a Wimpy Kid’ Rating: PG for some rude humor and language.

What it’s about: A boy narrates his comically nightmarish misadventures from his first year in middle school.

The kid attractor factor: The best-selling books come to life, or at least the big screen.

Good lessons/bad lessons: “It’s our choices that make us who we are.�

Violence: Bullies threaten it.

Language: Trips to the toilet using the milder words one uses there.

Sex: Boys stumble toward that age when they notice girls.

Drugs: None.

Parents’ advisory: Funny, irreverent, pretty faithful to the tween-centered books, this is very family friendly, potty breaks notwithstanding.

‘The Bounty Hunter’ Rating: PG-13 for sexual content, including suggestive comments, language and some violence.

What it’s about: A bounty hunter tries to bring in his ex wife, who skipped bail and missed her court date.

The kid attractor factor: Gerard Butler, a once and future Spartan. And Jennifer Aniston.

Good lessons/bad lessons: If the couple is incompatible, handcuffs won’t help.

Violence: Quite a lot of it, actually — shootings and beatings.

Language: Lots of profanity, much of it from Jen Aniston Sex: Threatened, discussed.

Drugs: Alcohol is consumed.

Parents’ advisory: Too crass and violent for ages 12 and younger, PG-�13� seems right on the mark.

‘Valentine’s Day’ Rating: PG-13 for some sexual material and brief partial nudity.

What it’s about: Assorted couples and would-be couples try to pull it together in time for “the most romantic day of the year.�

The kid attractor factor: An all-star cast that includes Anne Hathaway, Jessica Biel, Jessica Alba, Bradley Cooper and Oscar winners Jamie Foxx, Kathy Bates and Julia Roberts.

Violence: None.

Language: Quite clean .

Sex: Teens plan it, with near nudity played for laughs.

Drugs: None.

Parents’ advisory: A bit risque for ’tweens, but teens might learn something about love.

‘Avatar’ Rating: PG-13 for intense epic battle sequences and warfare, sensuality and language.

What it’s about: A disabled Marine is given an alien body to go live among them to help convince them to leave their land, and comes to take their side against the developers who want to bulldoze their forest.

The kid attractor factor: Aliens, dazzling critter-covered alien world and the best motion-capture animation ever.

Good lessons/bad lessons: Developers and their mercenaries bad, indigenous people good.

Violence: Quite a bit, as there’s a war and a lot of hunting-killing that goes on before that war.

Language: A lot of profanity.

Sex: Alien mating, discrete toplessness, loincloths.

Drugs: Cigarettes.

Parents’ advisory: A dazzling spectacle with a plot any ’tween will recognize. Fairly mild PG-13.

OK for 10 and older.

‘Alice in Wonderland,’ again and again on DVD

By Jen Chaney The Washington Post

If images of mad hatters and white rabbits seem to be appearing at the turn of every corner, don’t worry. Odds are you’re not hallucinating.

Now that Tim Burton’s 3D adaptation of “Alice in Wonderland� in theaters, it seems everyone in the DVD business wants to capitalize on the hype.

Six rabbit-hole-related releases from different studios arrived on the scene recently.

Good, bad and the child-friendly At the top of the list is the BBC’s “Alice in Wonderland� ($15), the most sophisticated, dreamlike and vaguely disturbing version in this bunch. With its surreal black-and-white imagery, a sitar-driven soundtrack

by Ravi Shankar and performances by British stars like Peter Sellers (who plays the King

of Hearts) and Peter Cook (the Mad Hatter), this 1966 “Alice� borrows recognizable moments from Carroll’s narratives — the tea party, the Queen of Heart’s croquet tournament — but ambles along in its own, unique, stream-of-consciousness fashion. The whole thing feels, appropriately, like a hazy, occasionally shocking fever dream.

The production, directed by Jonathan Miller, also gives us perhaps the most transfixing Alice ever committed to film.

Whereas most screen versions portray the apron-skirted heroine as a plucky, confused and occasionally impudent young girl, Anne-Marie Mallik (sporting a mad, messy mane and noticeable bags under her eyes), plays Alice here as addled, occasionally belligerent and practically incapable of making eye contact, the way one might actually be after going through that whole “Eat Me, Drink Me� routine.

The BBC edition also comes

with more extras than any of the other “Wonderland� DVDs, including a featurette on Shankar; a 1965 film about the real Alice Liddell, upon whom Carroll’s stories were based; and a commentary from director Jonathan Miller.

One assumes Miller probably didn’t care much for the 1933 “Alice in Wonderland,� also recently released on DVD ($13), which emphasizes the childlike innocence in Lewis Carroll’s stories in a way that will feel more familiar (and perhaps comfortable) to most audiences.

The most entertaining moments in this more traditional iteration involve our glimpses of thenmassive stars in ridiculous, persona-masking costumes, from W.C. Fields in his HumptyDumpty outfit to, in what has to be the least suave performance of his career — Cary Grant in the role of the Mock Turtle.

Don’t expect any special features on “Alice,� either, the

miniseries that aired last December on the SyFy Channel, on DVD ($20) and Blu-ray ($30).

An intriguing but often draggy re-imagining of Wonderland as a place where the Queen of Hearts (Kathy Bates) controls people’s minds so they’ll gamble endlessly in her sparklingly mod casino, this one is best digested as the network intended: in small portions over multiple viewings, as opposed to a single three-hour-plus binge.

If none of these DVDs sounds like particularly appropriate fare for children, there is one more option: a re-release of “Abby in Wonderland� ($15) that places Sesame Street’s sprightly pink fairy, Abby Cadabby, in the role of Alice. It should be noted that this DVD is identical to the version that came out in 2008 (which is still available), proof that even Elmo and his friends are smart enough to take advantage of a cross-promotional opportunity when they see one.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, March 19, 2010: This year is a very special period in which you evolve to a new level and create much more of what you desire. You discover just how far-reaching your influence might be and who can and will make a difference. If you are single, you’ll discover how attractive others think you are. If you are attached, the two of you will connect on a level that you haven’t experienced in many years. TAURUS always brings logic to a situation.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH Your perspective is in demand. How you see finances or a business arrangement remains unique to you. Look for the right path for all those who are mutually concerned. Listen to someone who might have different expertise. Tonight: Indulge a little. It’s about time.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHHHH You might be on top of your game. Your way of handling a situation could change radically after a meeting or conversation with more than several people.

A decision made now could be sound and productive. Worry less. Tonight: Out on the town.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH Working to facilitate a situation could be difficult if others aren’t working with you.

Know when to walk away from a situation and call it futile.

Understanding what is going on could be more important than you realize. Consider yourself first. Tonight: Vanish if you can.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHHHH Look at the end result.

Listen to others in a meeting. The solution, though evident to many, might not be evident to others.

Realize when you have gone too far. Back off diplomatically.

Know when you no longer have control and what needs to happen.

Tonight: Say “yes” to an invitation.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Others look to you.

Your advice probably means much more than you realize.

Understanding evolves because you are willing to listen to an important partner. Your ability to understand someone emerges.

Tonight: Assume the lead.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH Your ability to grasp what has happened comes out. Reach out for others at a distance. If you want to take off early for the weekend, by all means do.

Lunch easily could become an event. Tonight: Don’t let a child or loved one mar a happening.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH Teamwork always brings results, be they negative or positive. As your efforts come with positive thoughts and good will, you will draw that type of results you desire. Know when you have had enough. Tonight: Togetherness is the theme.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH Others demand control.

It would be best to be unusually

creative when putting in your two cents. An approach other than the norm will most likely draw the desired results. A brainstorming session produces excellent results.

Tonight: Just don’t be alone.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHH An even attitude, with focus on getting a project done, could make all the difference in what occurs. You could be tired and wanting to complete the weekend early. Understand what is happening within a relationship.

Tonight: Feeling invigorated.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Keep asking questions, knowing full well you are on top of your game. Remember, your words don’t fall on deaf ears, and others will respond. Your tone can make or break a situation. Let humor evolve. Creativity flourishes in this atmosphere. Tonight: Hook up with some cohorts.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHH If you feel the need to pull back some and play the recluse, take off early or call in. Everyone needs a break, even you. Schedule some time for indulgence where you can and will enjoy yourself.

Know what works for you.

Tonight: In the thick of things.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHHHH You say the right words, and others respond. You might have had a problem for a while, but now you loosen up. Others want your views. Express the same type of excitement about others’ opinions. Build up more mutuality.

Tonight: Hanging out is fun to do. © 2009 by King Features Syndicate

Drastic tantrum times call for drastic time outs

By John Rosemond McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Q:

Our 34-month-old daughter is trying to control everyone else in he family, especially us. When things don’t go her way, the result is an instantaneous and fairly demonstrative meltdown. We either ignore it or tell her to sit on the steps until she’s finished. When do kids stop trying to control other people’s behavior? Should we have a stronger response to these outbursts?

When did you stop trying to control other people?

If the truth be known — unless you’re on track to become a saint that is — you are still trying to control other people. So am I. It’s called being manipulative, and as much as no one wants to admit it, there are times when even the most well-adjusted, likable, responsible adults attempt to manipulate, to get their way.

The only difference between adults and children in this regard is that most adults (1) have accepted that other people, because they too want things their way, will cooperate sometimes, but not all the time, and (2) have learned that you attract more flies with sugar than vinegar. In other words, most adults have learned the art of social diplomacy (there are exceptions, as we all know). These agreeable folks don’t throw tantrums when they don’t get their way. They just shrug their shoulders and move on.

Not toddlers. Oh no. The typical toddler — of which your daughter is one — has yet to even accept that the world does not exist for her pleasure, and hers alone. The translation of the incoherent rage of the toddler at not getting her way is “HOW DARE YOU PEONS DENY THE ALMIGHTY ME, RULER OF THE KNOWN UNIVERSE!!!” It takes more than 34 months for most children to accept that the Almighty Me and “me” are not one and the same. In fact, I’ve run into a fair number of adults who obviously still cling to that fantasy. I call them “terrible twodults.” Isn’t that clever?

Making your daughter sit on the stairs when she has one of

A:

her high-self-esteem seizures is fine and will contribute to the gradual acceptance that she isn’t the Almighty Me (also known as the Almighty I Am). If you want to hasten things along, however, and I sense you do, then up the ante a tad. After all, the earlier in her life she accepts that bit of bad news, the better for her and everyone else in her life.

That’s the ticket Give her two free tantrums a day. Indicate that by magnetizing two “tantrum tickets” (rectangles of colored construction paper) to the refrigerator.

When a tantrum occurs, sit her on the steps and tell her she can get up when she’s ready to join the civilized world. When she gets up, take her to the refrigerator and take one of the tickets down, making sure she understands that she only has one ticket, and therefore only one free tantrum, left. Do the same for the second tantrum, but this time make sure she knows that because she has no more tantrum tickets left, another tantrum (the third of the day) will require you to confine her to her room for the rest of the day and put her to bed at least one hour earlier than usual, maybe even right after supper. And yes, you should do this even if the third tantrum occurs at 10 o’clock in the morning.

And no, this will not cause permanent psychic injury to a child this age. She won’t like it, and that’s the point.

If you follow through with this methodically and matterof-factly, I’d venture to predict that your daughter will have her tantrums pretty well under control within a couple of weeks. At that point, reduce the number of daily tantrum tickets to one.

To eliminate her tantrums altogether, keep this up for at least six months, maybe as much as a year. After all, the Almighty Me is the hardest of all nuts to crack.

Spring fun Continued from E1

HANG ART Parents and kids can work together to go through the child’s creations to pick out the top handful. Then hang them up in a fun art gallery location in the house.

NATURAL WILDLIFE FEDERATION’S ‘BE OUT THERE’ CAMPAIGN The organization is promoting the idea that children should spend one hour of unstructured time outside each day. Its Web site (www.BeOut There.org) offers a wealth of resources, including these activities:

PLAY ‘SQUIRRELLY SEEK’ This game combines two activities children are nuts about: hide-and-seek and make-believe.

Supplies: •Handful of acorns or acorn shapes cut out of paper •A small container for each player •Egg timer (if more than one child plays the game) Directions: 1.Hide the acorns around your house.

2.Let your child pretend to be a squirrel by collecting the acorns in a small container.

For multiple players: Give each player a container and set a timer for one minute. The child who collects the most acorns before the timer rings, wins!

BAGEL BIRD FEEDER Supplies: •Bagel •Yarn •Peanut butter •Bird seed •Optional: Popcorn, sunflower seeds, etc.

Directions: 1. Cover the bagel with a layer of peanut butter.

2. Roll the covered bagel in bird seed, completely covering it. You may also use food items such as popcorn and sunflower seeds if you do not have bird seed.

3. String the yarn through the center hole of the bagel.

Tie the ends together.

4. Hang outside in view of a window where you and your child can watch the wild birds come to feast.

WATER SCOPE How would you like to get a closer look at the creatures in a pool, pond or stream near you?

Supplies: •Milk or juice jug •Plastic wrap •Scissors •Rubber band •Strong tape What you do: 1. Cut the bottom off of a milk or juice jug. To make viewing easier, you can also cut off some of the top to widen the opening.

Try not to cut the handle, so you can hold your scope.

2. Cover the bottom opening with plastic wrap and hold it in place with a rubber band. Trim off any extra wrap and tape around the band. You want the window to be tight, so the water won’t seep in.

3. Take your scope to a pond or shallow stream and put it into the water with the plastic-wrap end down. You should be able to see under the water clearly.

It’s best if you keep your scope in one place and don’t move around too much. That way, the animals won’t be afraid to come close, and you’ll get a good look at them.

MAKE YOUR OWN TRAIL Some nature trails have posted signs to tell you which way to go.

But you can make your own trail signs for a one-of-a-kind hike! Try it out in your backyard, a nearby park, or other familiar area.

TRAIL SIGNS Here are some common trailmarking signs you can make, using either sticks or rocks: •This Way (arrow of sticks or rocks, or a large rock with a smaller one on top) •Turn Right (arrow of sticks or rocks pointing right, or large rock with smaller rocks on top and to the right) •Turn Left (arrow of sticks or rocks pointing left, or large rock with smaller rocks on top and to the left) •Wrong Way (X of sticks or rocks)

The Bulletin file photo

Be sure to think about birds, like this American Robin, as you write your list for your nature scavenger hunt.

TRAIL GAMES Use stick or rock trail signs to explore outside with your friends. Here are some fun ideas to try: •Hide-and-Seek. Divide into two groups: Trailblazers and Trackers. The Trailblazers lay a trail and hide at the end of it.

About 15 minutes after the Trailblazers leave, the Trackers set off to follow their trail. When they find the Trailblazers, the groups switch roles.

• Treasure Hunt. Lay a trail and hide something special at the end for the Trackers to find.

•Trail Home. Mark your own trail when you go exploring.

Then use it to help you find your way back.

TRACKING TIPS 1. Take at least one grown-up along for each group.

2. Stay together with your group on marked trails.

3. Make sure each person is carrying a whistle.

4. If you do get separated, stay in one place and blow your whistle until someone comes to the rescue.

BACKYARD SCAVENGER HUNT Want to host your own backyard scavenger hunt? Just create a list of natural items appropriate for the season and location, and see how many your children can find.

NATURE SCAVENGER HUNT With your partner, try to find each of the items listed below. If the item has the word “collect” next to it, you may put the item into your bag. If the item has the words “describe and note location” next to it, write where you found the item, but do not remove it.

1. A blade of grass longer than your index finger (collect) 2. An acorn cap (collect) 3. A leaf on the ground (collect) 4. A pine cone (collect) 5. A few pine needles (collect) 6. A twig longer than your thumb (collect) 7. Moss on the side of a building (describe and note location) 8. Fungi (describe and note location) 9. Signs of a spider or a spider itself (describe and note location) 10. An ant hill (describe and note location) 11. Plants or insects in a sidewalk crack (describe and note location) 12. Signs of birds or birds themselves (describe and note location) 13. Signs of amphibians or reptiles or the animals themselves (describe and note location) 14. Signs of mice, squirrels or other small animals or the animals themselves (describe and note location) 15. Signs of larger mammals or the mammals themselves (describe and note location) 16. Two different kinds of seeds (collect) Continued next page Hospice Home Health Hospice House Transitions

G ETTIN G O UT When families grow tired of their own home and yard, there are plenty of fun options.

TO THE LIBRARY First there’s the obvious activity of looking through the stacks and finding fun books to take home (or movies). Here are a few other ideas:

• CHECK OUT A CD AND SING ALONG WITH YOUR CHILD This idea, from Deschutes Public Library Youth Services Coordinator Heather McNeil, is good for young children. It teaches children phonological awareness, which means knowing the smaller parts of words, which makes it easier to learn to read, according to McNeil.

• TEEN PROGRAMS The Sisters Public Library will host a special movie at 3:15 p.m., Tuesday. The La Pine Public Library will host a laptop lab with games at 3 p.m. Monday and a movie with snacks at 1 p.m. Tuesday. The Redmond Public Library is hosting a duct tape workshop at 3:15 p.m.

Thursday.

• MONDAY MOVIE MANIA Redmond library will host a free showing of “The Princess and the Frog” at 1 p.m. Monday for ages 611. Snacks will be provided.

• CHECK OUT A HIGH DESERT DISCOVERY PACK Each one contains books, a puppet and a card of recommended activities based on life in the High Desert. These are available at all Deschutes Public Library branches.

• GET CRAFTY Families can get plenty of craft ideas by wandering through section 745.5 in the children’s area, according to McNeil.

• CHECK OUT PUPPETS All Deschutes Public Library branches offer puppets for families to check out, which they can take home to put on a puppet show.

HIGH DESERT MUSEUM Visiting the museum is a great family outing. The museum will host special events including:

• KIDS DAY Students can learn about reptiles and get to watch them being fed plus do reptile-related crafts from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Wednesday.

Andy Tullis / The Bulletin file photo

Juniper Swim & Fitness Center is hosting special swim hours for kids on spring break.

• SNAKES ALIVE Kids can meet up to 20 live snakes visiting from a wildlife refuge, from small species to a giant Burmese python and can handle some in the outdoor pavilion. The event costs $7 plus admission and takes place at noon and 2 p.m. March 25-28.

SUNRIVER NATURE CENTER & OBSERVATORY

for $26 and $20. Contact: www .mtbachelor.com. The Hoodoo tubing area is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. during the week. A pass for 10 runs (or 15 if you walk up) costs $12, or full day costs $20 for ages 11 and younger or $25 for ages 12 and older.

Contact: 541-822-3799.

TOUR ADVENTURES

This local nature center offers interpretive exhibits, an observatory, educational programs, a botanical garden and a nature trail. The center is open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. from March 20-28, and costs $2 for adults and $1 for children. Contact: www.sunrivernaturecenter.org.

For a real splurge, consider Wanderlust Tours. The local tour group offers options including caving, snow-shoeing, GPS ecochallenge and canoe and kayak trips (weather permitting). Ages 12 and older costs $49, younger is $44. Contact: 541-389-8359 or www.wanderlusttours.com.

GEOCACHING

This may be the last hurrah for snow in Central Oregon (although who knows the whims of the weather?).

The best way to describe this activity is to call it a modern-day treasure hunt. Families use GPS devices to locate and track caches throughout the area. It’s a fun, interactive way to get outside.

Check out www.geocaching.com for more information.

• WANOGA SNO-PARK

URBAN TRAILS

The conditions at this park on the Cascade Lakes Highway are still pretty good for spring. The area starts off cold, icy and fast in the morning and ends up soft, mushy and slow by the late afternoon, according to Chris Sabo, trails specialist for Deschutes National Forest. There’s a $5 parking fee.

The Bend Park & Recreation District offers 61 miles of primary and connector trails. See a map featuring all of the local trails at www.bendparksandrec .org, click on parks and trails, then trail map (copies can also be found at park facilities). Director of Planning and Development Bruce Ronning suggested several of these urban trails would make good options for family bike rides or walks. The most wellknown pathways are popular for a reason. These include the First Street Rapids trail along the Deschutes River, the southern end of the river trail (which starts near Farewell Bend Park) and Shevlin Park. But beyond those wellknown trails are many others worth checking out.

On the east side of Bend, Ronning recommends: • Larkspur Trail, which runs along an old irrigation area for

SNOW PLAY

• TUBING PARKS There are two tubing options in the local area and, yes, they are more expensive than sledding on your own, but they could be a nice splurge. Both the Snowblast Tubing Park at Mt. Bachelor and Autobahn at Hoodoo are open for extended hours during spring break. The Mt. Bachelor tubing area will be open from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. during the week.

a mile and a half, connecting Larkspur Park with Pilot Butte State Park.

• Central Oregon Canal Trail is a path that follows the canal in the southeast section of town. The trail is accessible off of American Lane or can be picked up near Blakely Park.

• The Pilot Butte Canal Trail on the northeast section of town traverses the canal, then goes near Lava Ridges Natural Area.

From there, Ronning says families can take the sidewalk to Pine Nursery Park and check out new paths that cut through that new 147-acre park. Ronning says kids typically like the Lava Ridges area, which is 12 acres of rock outcrops. It’s a place kids can climb around in, which is wholly undeveloped and is a natural play area.

On the west side of town, Ronning recommends: • The Discovery Trail, which travels along Shevlin Park Road and connects with Shevlin Park.

• The West Bend Trail, which runs along Galveston Avenue, runs through a 6-acre parcel of open space and goes along the base of a rimrock.

SWIM OPTIONS Local swimming pools are offering special swim hours during spring break.

• JUNIPER SWIM & FITNESS CENTER Open from 1 to 4 p.m. March 20-28; 7 to 8:30 p.m. March 2225; 6:30 to 9 p.m. March 26. Cost in-district is $3.50 for ages 3-15, $4.50 for ages 16,18 and $3.50 for adults when accompanying a minor (prices for out-of-district are $1 more). Contact: 541-389-7665.

THE BULLETIN • Friday, March 19, 2010 E7

M cCray Continued from E1 There’s something powerfully attractive about fame.

Even shy people have thought about how amazing it would be to have their name in headlines, spotlights or on radio shows. Fame hovers on the edge of being so powerful we could never attain it, and something so whimsical it is easily within our grasp.

Many have found that they really don’t care for the pressures and prerequisites of being famous and have dismissed the notion altogether, but everyone at some point daydreams.

Then there are those of us who taste a bit of fame and find they really, really enjoy it. They’re the people who decide to make fame one of their life’s goals, in acting or sports or maybe even writing.

I’m one of those people, I’ll admit. Ever since middle school, I’ve wanted to become a best-selling novelist. Not necessarily for the money, but more for the knowledge that people would actually be reading and enjoying my work.

In fifth grade, when I decided to follow that course, I thought I would get the kind of support for my dreams I’d always gotten. And for a long while, I did. From every corner I kept hearing that anything was possible, and as long as I tried hard enough, I could become whatever I wanted.

But something changed when I became a high school student. Now, instead of hearing “Reach for the stars!” I hear, “Don’t get your hopes up.”

The odds began to stack against me. Several writ-

ing resources informed me that fewer than 5 percent of manuscripts are ever published, let alone become best-sellers. The numbers involved are so large they are almost inconceivable.

At some publishers, it is more likely you will win the lottery than have your manuscript become a book.

These kinds of crushing odds are found in every fame-oriented dream. According to a few online sources, only 2.5 percent of college football players go pro. Those statistics are even worse for high school players.

And it is regularly agreed that the odds against becoming a famous professional actor are astronomical.

And yet there still are famous actors, pro-athletes and writers.

Despite the odds against them, these few did manage to make it to the big leagues and to be famous, like J.K. Rowling, Brad Pitt, Brett Favre and Michael Jordan. The fact that they exist proves it can happen. It happened for them. It could happen for me.

It could happen for you.

OUT OF

THE ORDINARY

Courtesy Tarina Westlund

The Portland Cello Project is a collective of cello players, and the lineup for live shows ebbs and flows.

So some of these folks will play in Bend, and some won’t. And some folks who play in Bend aren’t pictured. At upper right is Douglas Jenkins.

The out-there repertoire of the Portland Cello Project

By Ben Salmon The Bulletin

A

s far as band names go, the Portland Cello Project’s isn’t exactly cryptic.

It’s a group of cellists, based in Portland, who’ve come together to play music. Pretty standard stuff.

Standard, that is, until founder Douglas Jenkins expresses his excitement about bringing the PCP to Central Oregon next week (see “If you go”), and blurts out the group’s newest venture.

“We’ll be unveiling a Rihanna song in Bend,” he said in a telephone interview last week.

Now, if you’re a fan of pop music, e.g. Rihanna, you might be confused. And if you’re a fan of classical music, i.e. the kind often played by cellists, you might be confused.

And that’s perfect, Jenkins said.

“If (audiences) leave with … a lot of confusion, I’m fine with (that),” he said. “Like, ‘Why did Arvo Pärt come after Britney?’”

Pärt is a contemporary, minimalist classical composer from Estonia. And, yes, “Britney” is Britney Spears, the pop tart-turnedtabloid star whose Grammy-winning 2004 hit “Toxic” is the mostrequested song in PCP’s repertoire.

It’s that mishmash of a repertoire, combined with PCP’s classically-trained chops, that has made the group an unlikely breakout star on Portland’s overflowing music scene. According to www. portlandcelloproject.com, PCP’s material includes everything from Britney Spears, Justin Timberlake and Outkast to Bach, Beethoven and Argentine tango composer Astor Piazzolla.

For Haiti ...

Bend musicians come together to support the earthquake-ravaged nation

By Ben Salmon • The Bulletin n Jan. 12, a magnitude 7 earthquake rocked Haiti, killing more than 200,000 people and injuring and displacing hundreds of thousands more.

Just over two months later, news stories about the quake appear less frequently on TV and in newspapers, but the need for help is as serious as ever.

Toward that end, a group of people have been working for weeks to put together a night of fun, food and music to benefit the people of Haiti, and their hard work pays off tonight with the Bend For Haiti concert at the Tower Theatre (see “If you go”), plus parties before and after.

Tonight’s festivities all happen within stumbling distance of each other. There’s a preparty planned at Astro Lounge (147 N.W. Minnesota Ave., Bend) from 4 to 6 p.m., where you will almost certainly be able to find a way to contribute to the cause, even if Oregon liquor law doesn’t allow organizers to announce specifics. That part is free.

The main event will happen across Wall Street at the Tower Theatre at 7 p.m., with doors opening at 6 p.m. Some of Oregon’s grooviest musicians will perform, including Bend-based songwriters Eric Tollefson and Reed Thomas Lawrence, as well as two Eugene-based acts: the reggae-flavored pop-rock band Rootdown and renowned roots-blues guitarist David Jacobs-Strain.

Throughout the concert and the venue, there will be ways to help Haiti. Photographs from the country will hang in the lobby, available for purchase, and organizers will raffle off gift bags with goodies like golf and spa packages, restaurant gift certificates, wine baskets, and more. Raffle tickets will cost $5 or five for $20.

From there, the event moves to

O

the Liberty Theater for an afterparty designed to look and feel like an evening in a “tent city” refugee camp after a disaster.

“The idea is to have a party but it really is also is to educate people on what people experience when they go through a disaster of this magnitude,” said party planner Victoria Tolonen, aka local dance instructor “Salsa Victoria,” who has worked in disaster relief efforts in farflung places such as Indonesia and Mongolia.

The afterparty will have a nohost bar and Haitian food made

by El Sancho, plus a DJ spinning music. Tolonen will give a free merengue dance lesson, no partner nor dance experience necessary.

Tolonen is just one member of a team of about eight people that put Bend For Haiti together over the past several weeks. The effort started with Lawrence, who said he got the idea while talking to his grandmother about the disaster.

“She was watching the news and saw something about musicians doing Haiti benefits, and she said, ‘Have they had anything in Bend?’” he said. “I was watching a lot of it, too, and you feel like you can’t do anything from so far away. But my grandmother said, ‘Well, why don’t you try?’

“I thought that was a great idea. It’s a chance to play music with some talented people in Bend and raise some money and do something,” he continued.

“So I just started putting it out there in the universe.”

Before long, Lawrence hooked up with Justin Lavik of Antioch Church in Bend, and Lavik pulled in World Relief NEXT, a humanitarian organization that runs out of Antioch, plus other folks who could help, including primary sponsor Horizon Broadcasting.

music

Portland Cello From Page 3 In between, there’s Michael Jackson and Led Zeppelin, Pantera and Pink Floyd, ABBA and A-ha, plus Bon Jovi, Guns N’ Roses and Metallica, theme songs from films (“Star Wars”), television shows (“Star Trek”) and video games (“Super Mario Bros.”), Portland-based indie faves like The Builders and The Butchers, Weinland and Laura Gibson, and original tunes, too.

On any given night, PCP’s setlist depends on the atmosphere in the room.

“If it feels like it’s a crazy, more wild bar, we’re going to pull out the louder, faster stuff,” Jenkins said. “If it’s more of a listening room, it’s going to be a little bit more of the mellow stuff.”

That said, the original goal of the Portland Cello Project was to take classical music — long trapped in theaters and concert halls — into unexpected venues, Jenkins said. The idea started with Tony Rogers, a cellist who knew many folks in Portland who played the same instrument in non-traditional ways and invited them to his house for an oldfashioned cello jam (as if there is such a thing).

“We did it and we had fun and we thought, well, wouldn’t it be funny to try to play a bunch of classical music at bars,” Jenkins said. “So we played a show at the Doug Fir (Lounge), and it was fun.”

That was in 2006. The group had so much fun, it did the same thing down the street at Holocene, and invited some local singer-songwriter friends, such as Gibson and Peter Broderick, to join in. Jenkins wrote cello arrangements for their songs, and

From previous page “Justin gathered the people,” Lawrence said. “I came in the next week for a meeting and they were all sitting there.”

Proceeds from tonight’s events will go to earthquake relief efforts through World Relief NEXT, and Tolonen noted the difference between the kind of need we see every day in Central Oregon and the kind of desperate need that’s rampant in Haiti right now.

“There’s a lot of need in the United States, and we have a lot of local need in Bend,” she said.

“What is going on in Haiti is an immediate need, and it is a matter of life and death. There are 200,000 people that literally don’t have a home and it’s … the rainy season, and they don’t have water

also began arranging “funny covers” of tunes like Spears’ “Toxic.”

Those first two shows were hits. The Holocene show was a sellout, powered almost entirely by word of mouth, Jenkins said.

“I don’t even know why it happened a second time,” he said, “but it did, and we’re lucky it did, I guess.”

Three years later, Jenkins has a group of 15 to 20 cellists who rotate in and out of the project for different gigs, depending on who’s available. Most PCP shows have eight cellists on stage, though six are coming to Bend because of the size of McMenamins Old St. Francis School’s stage. Last year, the group released its second album, “The Thao & Justin Power Sessions,” featuring collaborations with West Coast indie darlings Power and Thao Nguyen.

And last summer, SPIN Magazine named them a “Hot New Band,” whatever that means.

Jenkins credits PCP’s formation and rise, as well as the favorable response the band has received, to the familial atmosphere among Portland’s musicians.

Over the past decade, the town’s music scene has blossomed into one of the finest anywhere, and its segment of musicians playing gentle indie-folk — the kind particularly friendly to the cello — is richly talented.

“I think (PCP is possible) just because Portland has one of the most vibrant music scenes in the country,” he said, noting that almost all the group’s members play with rock bands as well. “We’re all transplants, and I think most of us did move here because of the music scene. We’re just drawn here because it’s such a vibrant scene, it’s an inexpensive place to live, and it’s a big enough city that there’s enough classical music gigs (for us to) pay our bills. I

think it’s just the perfect mixture of factors.”

He continued: “Not only is the music so good here, but everybody gets along really well.

There’s not a whole lot of competition because everybody’s kind of doing their own thing, and everybody goes to each others’ shows and is really supportive of each other. So I think that’s a lot of it; it’s a really open and tight and friendly and supportive community.”

For Bend, the PCP has prepared a three-hour-plus set, the vast majority of which is new arrangements, including collaborative work with guest artists David Shultz and Catherine Feeny, songwriters from Richmond, Va., and Portland, respectively. As for what, exactly, the band will play, that will be determined, at least in part, by the crowd.

And that’s the point of putting classical music in new places, Jenkins said. “(Often in classical music), you’re expecting your audience to come to you rather than reaching across the aisle to them, and I feel like that’s one of the things that’s a little bit alienating about the classical performance tradition,” he said. “It’s very much expecting people to come to you rather than reaching out. And I think music is such an act of communication, you have to reach out to your audience. It’s a two-way thing. They’re giving you energy back and you’re giving them something as well, and I feel like that’s sometimes lost in the classical tradition.

“I try to avoid that with this group whenever possible,” he said. “We try to connect.”

“So there’s an immediate need that we can address by doing something small here, and I’ve seen how even $10 here can make a difference for a person or a family in another country,” Tolonen said. “We live in a small world, and to me helping some-

one across the street is just as important as helping someone across an ocean.”

Ben d c h u r c h h o s t s Christian pop stars You may not be a fan of contemporary Christian pop music.

I get that.

But if you are, pay attention, because the Christian Life Center has one heck of a good deal tonight.

The east Bend church is hosting not one but two big stars in the world of Christian pop, and the price couldn’t be more right in a tough economy: free.

This is the only Oregon stop and the only free stop on the “Come Alive” tour, which features Mark Schultz and the three-gal group Point of Grace.

Schultz is a singer-songwriter from Nashville who does soaring, inspirational tunes in the same vein as Michael W. Smith.

His new album, after which the tour is named, explores “life’s greatest joys and toughest challenges while celebrating God’s presence in every moment,” according to his Web site.

Point of Grace has been a big name on Christian radio for years, but recently expanded their reach to country audiences with their hit “How You Live (Turn Up the Music).” That’s no big surprise; the trio’s harmonyheavy sound is akin to the Dixie Chicks, but with more pop influence and a more consistently positive outlook.

Together, the two acts have sold millions of records and racked up a boatload of Dove Awards, which is the Christian version of a Grammy. Did I mention this show is free? Yeah, that’s a bargain.

“Come Alive” tour, with Mark Schultz and Point of Grace; 7:30 tonight, doors open 6:30 p.m.; free, tickets available at contact info below or at the door while they last; Christian Life Center, 21720 E. U.S. Highway 20, Bend; 541-633-6804.

Keep St. Pat’s alive with The Irish Rovers Still hungry for some traditional Irish music? The Irish Rovers have you covered.

I know what you’re thinking: “Wait a minute, didn’t we just celebrate St. Patrick’s Day?” Indeed, you did. But Irish music is like corned beef and cabbage — both are satisfying any day of the year.

Take Saturday, for instance.

The Rovers will light up the Tower Theatre with their cheeky, charming Irish folk tunes, played with the skill of a band that’s been doing this for 45 years. It was the early ’60s when Irish immigrants George Millar and Jim Ferguson met in Toronto

Irish Rovers Submitted photo

and started the band, and the fun hasn’t stopped since, even as some of the faces have changed.

Fun is the name of the Rovers’ game. Hear for yourself at www .irishrovers.info and then see for yourself Saturday night.

The Irish Rovers; 7:30 p.m.

Saturday; $35 and $40, available at the contact info below; Tower Theatre, 835 N.W. Wall St., Bend; 541-317-0700 or www .towertheatre.org.

Find out where the locals are playing Lots of your fellow locals will be out playing live music this weekend. Go support them: • While the SXSW music festival churns down in Austin, Texas, Bo Reynolds and Deb Yager will bring a slice of the Lone Star State to Giuseppe’s (932 N.W. Bond St., Bend) Saturday night.

The former Austinites do plenty of solo gigs ’round here, but when they get together, they go by the name Little Fish and play dusty, sun-fried folk and Americana that calls for a plate of barbecue and a glass of sweet tea.

7:30-9:30 p.m. Free.

• What’s up with The Commercial Underground? Well, for one thing, the Bend-based quartet is now called Audiolized. (I like that better, guys.) Also, they’ve got a new EP out called “Take A Ride” that reflects their shift away from classic rock covers to high-energy original tunes.

• Dan Pantenburg and the Leikam twins — Vaughn and Evan — make up one of Bend’s finest young bands, The Autonomics.

The guys are a classic power trio, cranking out rough-hewn indie-rock that would rather stomp and skronk than stare at its shoes. They’re sort of a blend of The White Stripes and Wolf Parade, with bluesy swagger for days, and that’s the reason they keep getting invited back to JC’s (642 N.W. Franklin Ave., Bend), where they’ll play Saturday and March 27. 9 p.m. Free.

Catch live music under the Silver Moon The ol’ Silver Moon Brewing & Taproom (24 N.W. Greenwood Ave., Bend) is a comfortable place to hang out. There’s something about the bar — tasty grub, good people, shabby-chic decor — that just oozes charm.

The consistently strong lineup of live music helps, too. This week is no different.

On Saturday night, the Moon will welcome Nettle Honey, a convincingly old-time folkgrass band from Colorado that knows how to pick its way around a good time. They’ll play after Mäi from Moon Mountain Ramblers does an opening set that includes, presumably, songs from his upcoming album “Restless.”

Look for the show to start at 9 p.m., and cover is $5.

Sunday will see the return of John Cruz, a singing, songwriting Hawaiian star whose tropical, take-it-easy sound will whisk you away to the Big Island faster than you can say “300 days of sunshine.” He’ll play at 7 p.m., and tickets are $17 at the door or $15 in advance at www .bendticket.com.

On Wednesday night, the Moon will host a “Herstory” open mic to celebrate women’s history month and benefit the Human Dignity Coalition, both good things to do. Start time is 7 p.m., and $5 gets you in. And on Thursday, it’s the return of Montana’s 10 Foot Tall and 80 Proof, who play “dance your duff off roots-rock country.”

Cover is $5, and start time is 8 p.m.

music releases Was (Not Was) PICK OF THE LITTER 1980-2010 Micro Werks The pretend Was siblings (in actuality Detroit producers Don Fagenson and David Weiss) concocted music that seemed to have emanated from some evil lab in Dr. Funkenstein’s basement.

Their parodic pop was a cheesy yet oddly danceable pileup of jazz, funk, New Wave, and disco, punctuated with

rants and beatnik poetry.

Rogue Wave PERMALIGHT Brushfire Records Rogue Wave leader Zach Rogue has always flirted with the sort of cheeky, blatantly

commercial songwriting that makes people famous, but on “Permalight” he goes for the sugar-pop jugular.

Lead track “Solitary Gun,” despite its endearingly mealymouthed inflection, is his peppiest, most accessible song to date. And while the band may have come out of the gate six years ago sounding like a Shins/Elliott Smith/Simon & Garfunkel hybrid, “Permalight”

Peter Gabriel SCRATCH MY BACK Real World Records Covering other artists’ work is a familiar move for most musicians, but making an all-covers album is risky. We’ve all heard bad examples, but done well it also has the potential to reinvigorate — or at least remind people of — certain performers’ talents, and the appropriately titled “Scratch My Back” at least plays to Peter Gabriel’s strengths.

Much like ex-Talking Heads leader David Byrne, Gabriel has turned away from his more commercial, pop-oriented work of the 1970s and ’80s to focus

on world music and conceptual projects the past couple of decades. “Scratch” is no different, managing to make Paul Simon’s “Boy in the Bubble” and David Bowie’s “Heroes” sound complex

recording for less than half the cited span, this compilation showcases all their hallmarks: a grab bag of genres, out-ofleft-field instrumentation, and surreal guest vocalists, from Ozzy Osbourne to Mel Torme.

A Bizarro World variation on Steely Dan, Was (Not Was) was never an acquired taste.

You either embraced or dismissed them immediately. For the former, “Pick of the Litter” is a windfall.

rarely gazes that far back.

Since this is being released on Jack Johnson’s Brushfire Records, Rogue is unafraid to court the hacky-sack set with heavy-lidded acoustic ballads and spacy sentiments. But he also wraps his fingers around giant, Postal Service-shaped bars of electro-pop on “Good Morning” and the insipid “Stars and Stripes,” beating us to a mushy pulp in the process.

Not until Track 6 (the waveringly pleasant “Fear Itself”) does Rogue stretch out and start to sound more like his old self — which is to say satisfyingly melodic but not all that unique.

— John Wenzel, The Denver Post

and contemplative, backed only by strings and the occasional piano and horns.

But Gabriel’s distinctive voice wraps itself beautifully around melodies from Radiohead, Neil Young, Bon Iver and Regina Spektor, highlighting the quality of the originals and his own talent for reinterpretation. It’s nothing new, but good music doesn’t always have to be.

Quasi AMERICAN GONG Kill Rock Stars The Portland duo of pianist-guitarist-songwriter Sam Coomes and drummer Janet Weiss have been making twoperson garage rock together since the early 1990s, predating the White Stripes when it comes to former spouses who carry on professionally after their relationship goes under.

Weiss, who also has played with Sleater-Kinney and Stephen

Malkmus, is both a technically dazzling and a physically propulsive drummer, and previous Quasi albums have held together just fine by combining her rhythmic thrust with Coomes’ mordant lyrics and shambling melodies.

On “American Gong” they add bassist Joanne Bolme to become a bona fide power trio. Coomes is typically wry and witty in the service of a dark vision. The album’s one near-dirge ironically regards “the receding daylights of a teenage dream” on a song called “Laissez les Bon Temps Rouler.”

“American Gong” kicks up a refreshing, raucous storm on what has become a distressingly placid indie-rock sea.

— Dan DeLuca, The Philadelphia Inquirer

Ali Farka Toure and Toumani Diabate ALI & TOUMANI Nonesuch Records This is the third collaboration between guitarist Ali Farka Toure and kora player Toumani Diabate, both from Mali, ending a process that began with 2005’s Grammy-winning “In the Heart of the Moon.” It’s the final recording for both Toure, who died in 2006, and the great Cuban bass player Orlando “Cachaito” Lopez, who died last year.

Full of slow-paced grooves and subtle modal melodies, “Ali & Toumani” balances Toure’s deep, bluesy acoustic guitar with Diabate’s trebly, pointillistic harp on a set of traditional African melodies. It’s a quiet, moving, peerlessly beautiful album.

While many tracks include

Sewing & Vacuum Center

For all your vacuum & sewin needs g

bass, percussion and/or brief vocals, it comes across as an instrumental duo recording. Yet it’s so colorful and articulate that it never risks disappearing into background music: it’s as easy to get lost in telepathic interplay between Toure and Diabate as to let the songs wash over you in shimmering, transcendent waves.

Korin Covey takes an order from a customer while working the register Wednesday at Longboard Louie’s west-Bend restaurant.

Food at Longboard Louie’s is lackluster, but there’s plenty of it and at the right price

By John Gottberg Anderson For The Bulletin

I

sn’t it interesting how two people whose tastes are generally similar can have such different responses to the food of a particular restaurant?

I don’t dislike the two casual Longboard Louie’s cafes in Bend, but I consider their Mexican food (described on the menu as “Mayan Hawaiian style”) to be bland at best.

But the surf-themed restaurants’ strong local following indicates that they’re doing something right. Generous portions, speedily prepared and served at budget prices, go a long way toward pleasing crowds. And I’m a fan of Louie’s breakfast burritos when I am looking for a quick and filling morning pick-me-up.

My dining companion most decidedly does not like Longboard. She would be delighted if I never again suggest we drop by. Her late husband was Mexican American, and when she tells me that the “authentic Mexican dishes” to which the menu refers are anything but authentic, I believe her.

In fact, Jeff and Kathi Parshall — who bought Longboard Louie’s on Galveston Avenue in 2000 (it opened in 1996) and added a second store on Bend’s east side in 2007 — grew up in Eugene. They just like Mexican food. An avid surfer who learned to ride the waves on the Oregon coast, Jeff Parshall said he was “never classically trained as a cook or anything. I kind of make it up as I go.”

Sep a rate ownership The Parshalls are now exclusively at Longboard Louie’s eastside cafe, in a small strip mall at the corner of U.S. Highway 20 and Dean Swift Road. Jeff Parshall said that on March 1, they sold the Galveston Avenue store to his longtime former general manager, Kylah Elliott, and her partner, Zach Pike. Although the two stores will continue to carry the Longboard Louie’s name, he said, they are now independently owned and operated.

There isn’t a lot of difference between the two cafes, although the west-side shop has a “funkier” vibe than the east-side shop.

On Galveston, Longboard Louie’s has a small counter area where orders are placed, a modest but not especially wellbussed indoor seating area, and a substantial outdoor picnic patio. Winter-sports paraphernalia provides accents.

The east-side Louie’s is spacious and contemporary, seating about 50 people, and its colors are as bright as the west side’s are drab: yellow with blue and limegreen accents. Both restaurants are adorned with surfboards and other surfing memorabilia, including photographs and posters, but the display is much more impressive on the east side.

“The core menu will stay the same at both restaurants,” Jeff Parshall said. “That lends itself to more consistency. To me, that’s No. 1. People need to know what to expect.

“We make 85 to 90 percent of our food from scratch, and we try to keep it healthy. We’ve made the restaurant more vegetarian and vegan-friendly, and we rotate seafood specials in and out. A lot of it depends on what’s seasonally available, fits into the budget … and what I’m in the mood for personally.”

“All our oils are non-hydrogenated, no trans fats,” Parshall said. “The rice and beans are made without lard or chicken stock. We use sea salt. It’s as healthy as you want to make it.”

Breakfast burritos Perhaps it is the spaciousness and color of the east-side Louie’s that has convinced me I prefer its food over that of the older west-side location. Or perhaps it’s something as simple as the larger salsa bar (nine choices, as opposed to five on Galveston) or the open kitchen, where I can watch the staff preparing my food.

Until 10:30 every morning of the week, Longboard Louie’s offers breakfast burritos: $5 for a

RECENT REVIEWS

Ryan Brennecke / The Bulletin

One of the more popular burritos at Longboard Louie’s is the Hollenbeck, the recipe for which came from a street vendor in east Los Angeles. small one, $5.50 for a somewhat larger burrito. The eight varieties include bacon, steak, turkey sausage, chili relleno and fajita veggie. Every one of them is filled with scrambled eggs, hashbrown potatoes and pinto beans, along with salsa and sour cream, wrapped in a large flour tortilla.

On my most recent visit, I opted for a chorizo burrito. Chorizo is a spicy, smoky pork sausage. In my breakfast burrito, it was ground and thoroughly blended with the other ingredients. The meal filled me up, but the taste didn’t satisfy.

There wasn’t enough bite to the sausage, and even the “medium hot” sauces from the salsa bar (my favorite was the fire-roasted tomato) didn’t add a lot of heat.

West-side woes My friend and I visited the west-side shop with her teenage son.

She ordered a Hollenbeck burrito, described in the menu as “a delicious recipe from a street vendor in East Los Angeles.” It was served with no attempt to mix the ingredients. Spoonfuls of rice, refried pinto beans, braised pork (her choice of filling) and chopped tomatoes were ladled one at a time into an enormous flour tortilla and wrapped inside.

Scooped on top, on one side, was shredded lettuce; on the other, an uninspired tomato-based enchilada sauce; and in the center, dollops of sour cream and a watery guacamole sauce that lacked avocado flavor. It was served in a small paper container, so that as my friend ate, the ingredients kept spilling out of the basket.

She complained that while she couldn’t taste the braised pork, “everything I taste seems to have lots of lime.”

Everything, that is, except for the lime tomatillo salsa that she put on top. “It was yummy,” my friend said, “but that’s one thing

that didn’t have a lot of lime.”

Her son had a combination plate with rice, a gluey glob of beans and two soft seafood tacos: one shrimp, one halibut. The so-called “Spaz” taco featured shrimp in a heavy breading (not the light tempura batter suggested on the menu), served on a corn tortilla. The halibut taco had big chunks of white fish in a flour tortilla. Both came with cabbage and pico de gallo salsa, as well as a creamy white chipotle fish sauce which was made in-house, and which made the halibut taco, though tasty, very messy.

I had the “Big Kahuna,” a jumbo taco salad that I ordered with chicken. The shredded iceberg lettuce in this salad was crisp. I enjoyed the meat, black beans and chopped tomatoes in the mix, but I could find only a little bit of cheddar cheese, and no Monterey Jack at all. The crisp flourtortilla bowl in which the salad was served had been baked too long in the oven, and the smear of guacamole and sour cream on the shell didn’t add much flavor.

I gave my friend a taste. The lack of flavor was one thing we agreed upon.

everal of Ron Schultz’s preoccupations are apparent in his encaustic art. A selection of his works, along with encaustic paintings by two other Bend artists, will be on display in the front gallery of Tumalo Art Co. through the month.

In his working life, Schultz fell in love with books, working in publishing and as a vintage and antique bookseller.

caustic paintings that have an antique feel.

Though made of wax, and thus translucent rather than papery, their richly subdued gold, ochre and rust tones are evocative of aged paper.

Encaustic painting itself is an ancient practice, involving the use of pigments, resin and wax, fused together with heat — often from heat guns or blow torches — to make a product that usually has translucence and depth but also a hard surface with a long lifespan.

Schultz also has an interest in science, “systems and cycles — the order of nature,” as he put it.

That fascination may be related to his interest in architecture, drafting and design. In fact, when he began college in Chico, Calif., he studied architecture.

Over the years, his formal training in drafting helped him supplement his income by doing renderings for architects — side work he still does from time to time.

fine arts From previous page All these interests have culminated in a current series that looks at, as he said, “kind of fundamental systems.” He categorizes the systems under the heading “mechanomorphic.”

Mechanomorphic means “having the form or qualities of a machine,” or something “described in mechanical terms.” You can look at nearly anything in mechanomorphic terms, from traffic to God. Many of the encaustic pieces in Schultz’s mechanomorphic series feature circles with precise, repeating elements. Some suggest phases of the moon or tiny characters that look like an unfamiliar language.

“I want it to look like a measuring device or an astronomical device that perhaps its usage has been forgotten,” Schultz said.

“It’s more than a machine. It’s something spiritual,” he said.

It’s not so much a preoccupation with the technical but an interest in sublime order. “Like science often does, you take science to a certain point and it gets mystical.”

Schultz, who declined to give his age, is originally from California, where he raised his three, now-grown kids. For many years he lived in Berkeley, and later in Redding, Calif., where he was a

Bend artists Ron Schultz and Barbara Hudin collaborated on this piece, “Ferris 3,” for the March show at Tumalo Art Co. managing partner in a bookshop and cafe for nearly 20 years.

Ready to leave Northern California, he moved to Bend about four years ago with his girlfriend,

Denise Born, when she took a cardiology nursing job here.

Shortly after moving to Bend, Schultz, who is also a printmaker, met local artist Pat Clark.

With his help, Clark opened the printmaking studio and gallery Atelier 6000 in 2007.

“Pat told me about her idea to start up the studio, and I thought it was a great opportunity,” he said.

He’s now the studio manager and teaches a number of classes.

The collaborative work took the form of four pieces — one each created by Schultz and Hudin and two with half created by each artist.

“I’d never collaborated with anyone before. We never talked beforehand what we were thinking about,” Schultz said, but when he got a piece with an image of a Ferris wheel on it, he thought it was perfect.

in the economy has been freeing in a way.

“It’s fun to have the liberty to do whatever the heck you want,” he said. “The market for art is a little bit put upon, it can be kind of liberating. You’re … thinking (less) about the marketing. Making something sellable isn’t your highest priority.”

That freedom is also one reason he’s glad he never had to make his living with his art.

“I don’t like the idea that an artist is necessarily in an elevated position. They do something valuable — sometimes it’s not so valuable, just like everyone else.”

He shrugged and gave a small smile.

“I don’t mind appearing ordinary.”

out of town The following is a list of other events “Out of Town.”

Concerts

the stuff

dreams are made of

By Jenny Harada The Bulletin

T

he legendary role of Effie White won Jennifer Holliday a Tony Award and Jennifer Hudson an Oscar. Now, Moya Angela is tackling the soulful singer in a new touring production of “Dreamgirls.”

Featuring new costumes and innovative set designs, the award-winning musical will run April 13-18 at the Keller Auditorium in Portland.

The original production opened on Broadway on 1981. Loosely based on the life of The Supremes, “Dreamgirls” follows the rags-to-riches story of a 1960s motown girl group, according to the tour’s Web site.

As The Dreamettes, Effie White, Deena Jones and Lorrell Robinson dream of making it big. With the help of Curtis Taylor Jr., the girls go straight to the top. However, tensions rise when Deena is made the lead singer instead of the full-voiced Effie.

With music by Henry Krieger and book

by Tom Eyen, the musical reveals themes

of “family, friendship, race relations and the consequences of fame and success,” according to the Web site.

Hit songs include “And I Am Telling You I’m Not Going” and “One Night Only.”

In 2006, the musical was adapted into a motion picture starring Beyoncé Knowles, Jennifer Hudson, Jamie Foxx, Eddie Murphy and Anika Noni Rose.

Directed by Robert Longbottom, the new production uses moving panels, LED lights and minimal props. Along with Angela, Syesha Mercado stars as Deena Jones and Adrienne Warren stars as Lorrell Robinson. The show premiered at the Apollo Theater in New York on Nov. 22, 2009.

Tickets range from $20 to $75, depending on day of performance and seat location. To purchase tickets, contact 866-8664502 or visit www.ticketmaster.com For more information on “Dreamgirls,” visit www.dreamgirlsonstage.com.

Jenny Harada can be reached at 541383-0350 or at jharada@bendbulletin.com.

TOP 10 XBOX 360 The editors of Game Informer Magazine rank the top 10 Xbox 360 games for March: 1. “Battlefield: Bad Company,” Electronic Arts

‘Final Fantasy XIII’ is a great game, but not a savior

2. “Mass Effect 2,” Electronic Arts 3. “Final Fantasy XIII,” Square Enix 4. “Just Cause 2,” Square Enix 5. “The Misadventures of P.B. Winterbottom,” 2K Games

‘F

inal Fantasy XIII” has ascended to a nearly religious significance in the eyes of many gamers. A piece of heavy artillery in the constant console war, it was initially cited by many as the game to singlehandedly justify a PS3 purchase.

When it went multiplatform at E3 2008, the announcement was considered the biggest coup of the show, literally bringing some ardent fans to tears. With all of the emotions and expectations it carried before it was even a playable game, “Final Fantasy XIII” became more than just the next entry in this storied franchise. It became a symbol a promise for the future of gaming.

Once you begin playing, the fog of mythology surrounding the title quickly lifts, and you realize that “Final Fantasy XIII” is just a role-playing game. It doesn’t have any mystical powers or curative properties. It has systems, just like any mortal RPG battle systems, leveling systems, and upgrade systems are all here, and they are exceptional.

“FF XIII” is not the Game Whose Coming Was Foretold, but every aspect of the gameplay is precision-tuned to deliver the most technically impressive title in “Final Fantasy” history.

Since this series has long relied on a series of simple commands like attack, magic, and item to govern enemy encounters, I am surprised to report that combat is the greatest triumph

Gamers can choose how their character progresses in “Final Fantasy XIII.” of “FF XIII.” Square Enix has overhauled the concept of battle, focusing more on guiding the tactical flow of the fight rather than each character’s specific actions on a turn-by-turn basis.

The result is a kinetic, fast-paced system that stands out as my favorite in the series.

The mechanic revolves around the concept of paradigms, which are arrangements of characters with specific jobs and abilities.

You will only have direct control over the party leader, while the other two members behave according to their assigned roles.

A character in the sentinel role will soak up damage and attract enemy attention, allowing the other two to perform duties like debuffing or casting offensive spells. However, the tides turn often, and you’ll need to switch your paradigms mid-battle to adapt.

EW RE V I

New game releases The following titles were scheduled for release the week of March 14: • “Hall of Fame: Ultimate Hoops Challenge” (Wii) • “Perfect Dark” (X360) • “Resonance of Fate” (X360) • “God of War III” (PS3)

‘FINAL FANTASY XIII’ 9.25 (out of 10) PlayStation 3 (Xbox 360 version was not reviewed) Square Enix ESRB rating: T for Teen The idea seems simple at first, but the game gradually builds the complexity until you feel like a strategic powerhouse, creating and exploiting weaknesses by switching your paradigms every few seconds. It’s fun, easy to use, and a refreshing departure from the RPG norm. After just a couple hours, I abandoned my stubborn tendency to manually enter commands for my party leader; it slows down the frenetic pace, and the auto-battle command is more than adequate.

The battles aren’t the only reason you should play “FF XIII.”

• “Infinite Space” (DS) • “T.A.C. Heroes: Big Red One” (DS) • “Hidden Mysteries: Buckingham Palace” (DS) • “Family Gameshow” (Wii) • “Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon” (Wii) • “Resonance of Fate” (PS3) • “METRO 2033” (X360, PC)

The process of leveling up your characters, called the Crystarium, is a great hybrid of the sphere grid from “Final Fantasy X” and the job system from “Final Fantasy V.” You choose how each character progresses in his or her available roles.

The only key area where “FF XIII” betrays fans, and this is heartbreaking for me to admit, is the story. The narrative makes a number of small missteps, but they all tie back to one larger issue: the characters. The game is largely driven by the personalities of the six main party members, their goals, mindsets, and personal revelations. Unfortunately, these revelations feel extremely rushed and artificial.

A good story is of paramount importance in a role-playing game, but the fact that “FF XIII’s” other elements compensate for its disappointing narrative is a testament to the overall quality of the experience.

• “Dragon Age: Origins — Awakening” (X360, PS3) • “Sonny With a Chance” (DS) • “Rage of the Gladiator” (Wii) • “Triple Shot Sports” (Wii) • “Horrible Histories: Ruthless Romans” (Wii, DS, PC) • “50 Classic Games” (DS) — Gamespot.com

Weekly download ‘JUNGLE SWING’ For: iPhone/iPod Touch From: Category 5 Games iTunes Store Rating: 4+ Price: $1 A number of factors have come together to make the iPhone a surprisingly viable gaming platform, and the unassuming “Jungle Swing” pretty well illustrates all of them.

Conceptually, it couldn’t be simpler: The goal is to keep the monkey swinging, Spider-Man style, from tree to tree without falling into the water, and the further he travels, the better the score. Playing “Swing” is simple, too, but as is the case with the best low-concept games, mastering the timing and swing physics takes a lot more skill than the one-button control scheme initially implies. A handful of unlockable items and upgrades is on hand to reward players who sink a lot of time into the game — a simple feat, given how easy it is to knock out a game or two during the course of a spare moment — and OpenFeint support sweetens the deal with online leaderboards and unlockable achievements.

Finally, there’s that price tag.

“Swing,” like so many absurdlypriced iPhone games, costs as much as a bag of chips, and the price-per-pound value is incalculably small for players who really get into the game and all it has to offer.

The Associated Press

Zachary Gordon, third from right, and R o b e r t Capron, fourth from right, star in the comedy “Diary of a Wimpy Kid.”

Flashback to puberty ‘Wimpy Kid’ has right touch of humor, sweetness

I

t is so hard to do a movie like this well.

“Diary of a Wimpy Kid” is a PG-rated comedy about the hero’s first year of middle school, and it’s nimble, bright and funny. It doesn’t dumb down. It doesn’t patronize. It knows something about human nature.

It isn’t as good as “A Christmas Story,” as few movies are, but it deserves a place in the same sentence. Here is a family movie you don’t need a family to enjoy. You must, however, have been a wimpy kid. Most kids are wimpy in their secret hearts. Those that

never were grow up to be cage fighters.

Greg Heffley isn’t the shortest student in his class. That would be Chirag Gupta. Greg (Zachary Gordon) is only the second shortest. He’s at that crucial age when everybody else has started to grow. There’s a funny slide show illustrating how his class looked in sixth grade, and how they look now — some with mustaches. The girls, of course, are taller than the boys.

The onset of adolescence is an awkward age, made marginally easier for Greg because he still hasn’t developed an interest

in girls. Even his best friend, Rowley (Robert Capron), is flattered to be noticed by a girl, and Rowley is so out of it he thinks that at his age kids still “play,” when, as we all know, they “hang.”

The girl who notices Greg and Rowley is Angie (Chloe Moretz), who seems wise beyond her years. We first see her under the bleachers, reading “Howl” by Allen Ginsberg. Keep your eye on her in high school.

She looks way older than her two new friends, but I checked, and Moretz was only 12 when she made the movie.

In middle school we find cliques, cruelty and bullying.

Polanskishowstruegenius I

n Roman Polanski’s “The Ghost Writer,” a man without a past rattles around in the life of a man with too much of one. He begins by reading the work of an earlier ghost who mysteriously drowned, and finds it boring and conventional. Hired to pep it up to justify a $10 million advance, he discovers material to make it exciting, all right, and possibly deadly.

This movie is the work of a man who knows how to direct a thriller. Smooth, calm, confident, it builds suspense instead of depending on shock and action. The actors create characters who suggest intriguing secrets. The atmosphere — a rain-swept Martha’s Vineyard in winter — has an ominous, gray chill, and the main interior looks just as cold.

This is the beach house being used by Adam Lang (Pierce Brosnan), a former British Prime Minister so inspired by Tony Blair that he might as well be wearing a name tag. Lang has one of those households much beloved by British authors of country house mysteries, in which everyone is a potential suspect — of something, anyway. His wife, Ruth (Olivia Williams), smart and bitter, met Lang at Cambridge. His assistant, Amelia (Kim Cattrall), smart and devious, is having an affair with him. The wife knows and isn’t above referring to it before the Ghost (Ewan McGregor). Security men lurk about, and a serving couple look rather sinister.

Just as his ghost writer starts work, Lang is accused by his former foreign minister of sanctioning the kidnapping and torture of suspects. The World Court prepares an indictment. It would be unwise for him to return to Britain, and he flees to Washington, D.C., for a photo op with the U.S. administration, unnamed, although the secretary of state looks a whole lot like Condi Rice.

The story is based on a best-

seller by Robert Harris, who cowrote the screenplay with Polanski. He implies parallels between his story and the Blair and (both) Bush administrations, but uses a

light touch and sly footwork so that not every viewer will necessarily connect the dots. There is also a loud clanging alarm inviting comparison between Lang, an exile sought by a court, and Polanski himself. This is also the fourth thriller in recent months to make a villain of a corporation obviously modeled on Halliburton.

The Ghost is left to his own devices in a house haunted by the unsaid, and Polanski slips into a pure filmmaking mode. I won’t describe what the Ghost searches for, but I will tell you that Polanski evokes Hitchcock in a conversation with an elderly local (Eli Wallach) and some forbidding beach scenes. And that he is masterful in the way he shows the dead former ghost providing the new one with di-

rections, so to speak, leading to a possible source.

There is also a Hitchcock touch in visuals where an incriminating note is passed from hand to hand; the scene is so well-done that it distracts from the fact that the Ghost didn’t need the information in the note to arrive at the same inference.

There are a few other loose ends. The film seems to have a high incidence of black cars designed to be used as murder weapons. It’s far from clear what Ruth Lang’s emotional state is on one rainy night. The Ghost himself seems too much a lightweight to explain his daring sleuthing. But the performances are so convincing in detail that they distract us from our questions. McGregor’s character has

no family, little pride and much insouciance, but is very smart and doesn’t enjoy his intelligence being insulted. And Olivia Williams projects the air of a wife who is committed to her husband in more than expected ways.

“The Ghost Writer” is handsome, smooth and persuasive. It is a well-made film. Polanski at 76 provides a reminder of directors of the past who were raised on craft, not gimmicks, and depended on a deliberate rhythm of editing rather than mindless quick cutting. The film immerses you in its experience. It’s a reminder that you can lose yourself in a story because all a film really wants to do is tell it.

got rid of it by touching another kid. Then that kid had the Touch, until … and so on. The cheese nicely symbolizes the hunger kids have for an excuse, any excuse, to make other kids pariahs. Remember what happened to anyone who wore green on a Thursday?

Where do they find these actors? They come up on TV, I

guess. Chloe Moretz has been acting since she was 7. Zachary Gordon has the confidence and timing of an old pro; he plays wimpy as if it’s a desirable character trait. Robert Capron, as the pudgy Rowley, pulls off the tricky feat of being an inch or two taller than Greg and yet still childish; wait until you see his Halloween costume. Greg’s

parents (Rachael Harris and Steve Zahn) aren’t major characters because what happens in school consumes all of Greg’s psychic energy. His older brother, Rodrick (Devon Bostick), is, of course, a sadistic teaser who makes life miserable. But at that age, so it goes.

The movie is inspired by the books of Jeff Kinney, and the ti-

tles reproduce his hand-lettering and drawing style. The movie reproduces his charm. The director, Thor Freudenthal, made “Hotel for Dogs” (2009), received affectionately in some circles, but this time his touch is more sure and his humor more sunny.

There’s a lesson to be learned ‘White Ribbon’ is a tightly knit film that leaves you guessing

S

omething is wrong in the village. Some malevolent force, some rot in the foundation. This wrongness is first sensed in a series of incidental “accidents.” Then the murder of a child takes place. This forces the villagers, who all know one another, to look around more carefully. Is one of them guilty? How can that be? One person couldn’t be responsible for all of these disturbing events. Have many been seized in an evil contagion?

After the first screening of Michael Haneke’s “The White Ribbon” at Cannes, everybody had theories about who “did it.” Well, we’re trained to see such stories as whodunits. Haneke is never that simple. It all may have been “done,” but what if there seems to be no doer? What if bad things happen to good people who are not as good as they think they are? In Haneke’s “Cache” (2005), who shot the alarming videos spying on the family? Are you sure? Haneke’s feeling is that we can never be sure.

This great film is set in rural Germany in the years before World War I. All has been stable in this village for generations.

The baron owns the land. The farmer, the pastor, doctor, the schoolteacher, the servants, even the children, play their assigned roles. It is a patriarchal, authoritarian society — in other words, the sort of society that seemed ordinary at that time throughout the world.

We are told the story, by the schoolteacher (Ernst Jacobi), many years after it took place.

In the film, we see him young (Christian Friedel). The old man intends to narrate with objectivity and precision. He’ll draw no conclusions. He doesn’t have the answers. He’ll stick to the facts.

The first fact is this: While out riding one morning, the doctor was injured when his horse stumbled because of a trip-wire.

Someone put the wire there.

Could they have even known the doctor (Rainer Bock) would be their victim?

Other incidents occur. A barn is burned. A child is found mur-

The same person could not easily have done all of them. There is information about where various people were at various times. It’s like an invitation to play Sherlock Holmes and deduce the criminal. But in “The White Ribbon” there are no barking hounds. The clues don’t match. Who is to even say something is a clue? It may simply be a fact seen in the light of suspicion.

Life continues in an orderly fashion, as if a gyroscope tilts and then rights itself. The baron steadies his people. The doctor resumes his practice but is unaccountably cruel toward his mistress. The teacher teaches and the students study, and they sing in the choir. Church services are attended. The white ribbon is worn by children who have been bad but will now try to be good.

The crops are harvested. The teacher courts the comely village girl Eva (Leonie Benesch). And suspicion spreads.

I wonder if it’s mostly a Western feeling that misfortune is intolerable and, to every degree possible, death must be prevented. I don’t hear of such feelings from Asia or Africa. There is more resignation when terrible

R OGER EBERT

“The White Ribbon” 145 minutes R, for some disturbing content involving violence and sexuality things happen. Yes, a man must not harm another. He should be punished. But after he causes harm, they don’t think it possible to prevent any other man from ever doing the same thing.

In this German town there is a need to solve the puzzle. Random wicked acts create disorder and erode the people’s faith that life makes sense. The suspicion that the known facts cannot be made to add up is as disturbing as if the earth gave way beneath our feet.

Haneke has a way of making the puzzle more interesting than its solution. If you saw “Cache,” you’ll remember how, after a certain point, a simple shot by an

unmoving camera became disturbing even when nothing happened. It wasn’t about what we were seeing. It was about the fact that someone was looking, and we didn’t know why.

It’s too simple to say the film is about the origin of Nazism. If that were so, we would all be Nazis. It is possible to say that when the prevention of evil becomes more important than the preservation of freedom, authoritarianism grows. If we are to prevent evil, someone must be in charge.

The job naturally goes to those concerned with enforcing order.

Therefore, all disorder is evil and must be prevented, and that’s how the interests of the state become more important than the interests of the people.

I wonder if Haneke’s point is that we grow so disturbed by danger that we will surrender freedom — even demand to. Do we feel more secure in an orderly state? Many do. Then a tipping point arrives, and the Berlin Wall falls, or we see the Green Revolution in Iran. The problem, as philosophers have noted, is that revolutionaries grow obsessed with enforcing their revolution, and the whole process begins over.

Haneke’s genius is to embed these possibilities in films rooted

I wonder if (Michael) Haneke’s point is that we grow so disturbed by danger that we will surrender freedom — even demand to. in the daily lives of ordinary people. He denies us the simple solutions of most films, in which everything is settled by the violent victory of our side. His films are like parables, teaching that bad things sometimes happen simply because they … happen. The universe laughs at man’s laws and does what it will.

The film is visually masterful.

It’s in black-and-white, of course.

Color would be fatal to its power. Perhaps because b&w film is hard to find, Haneke filmed in color and drained it away. If a color version is ever released, you’ll see why it’s wrong. Just as it is, “The White Ribbon” tells a simple story in a small village about little people and suggests that we must find a balance between fear and security.

No bounty is worth seeing this I

’m on the brink of declaring a new entry for Ebert’s Little Movie Glossary: No comedy not titled “Caddyshack” has ever created a funny joke involving a golf cart. The only thing preventing me is that I can’t remember if “Caddyshack” had golf cart jokes.

In any event, if there is a golf cart, it will sooner or later drive into a water hazard. The funny angle here is that the filmmakers went to all that trouble because they trusted the audience to laugh.

I stared with glazed eyes at “The Bounty Hunter.” Here is a film with no need to exist. Among its sins is the misuse of Jennifer Aniston, who can be and has been very funny, but not in dreck like this. Lacking any degree of character development, it handcuffs her to a plot of exhausted action comedy cliches — and also to a car door and a bed.

The handcuffer is her former husband, Milo (Gerard Butler), a former cop who is now a bounty hunter and draws the assignment of tracking down his ex-wife, who has skipped bail. Have I lost touch here, or are bounty hunters routinely deployed to track down criminals accused of no more than a non-fatal traffic violation?

Never mind.

Let’s do a little mental exercise here, the same sort that the screenplay writer, Sarah Thorp, must have done. Remember the ground rules: The movie must contain only cliches. I used to test this exercise on my film class. I’d give them the genre and begin sentences ending with an ellipsis.

They’d compete to be first to shout out the answer.

1. The story involves a formerly married couple. He is a bounty hunter tracking her down for …

2. They dislike one another.

Therefore by the end of the movie …

“The Bounty Hunter” 110 minutes PG-13, for sexual content including suggestive comments, language and some violence 12. She wears clothes so we can …

Well, I already gave you No. 10. To the others, clever students would answer: (1) a non-serious crime, since this is a comedy; (2) they will fall back in love; (3) vintage convertible; (4) movies like them because older cars look like real cars, and with a convertible you can more easily light the characters and show the landscape at the same time; (5) gets damaged; (6) Las Vegas; (7) wins big or loses big, but either way; (8) gangsters; (9) chase scenes, CGI sequences, impossible action and lots of shots of her running in high heels; (10) you know; (11) in the crotch; (12) peek down her neckline.

Why, oh why, was this movie necessary? Could it have been redeemed by witty dialogue?

Perhaps, but neither character is allowed to speak more than efficient sentences serving to further the plot. Hollywood movies started to simplify the dialogue when half the gross started to roll in from overseas. Has anyone noticed the great majority of nations dub foreign movies, so that subtitles aren’t a problem?

Gerard Butler is a handsome hunk who can also act; he’s currently starring in Ralph Fiennes’ “Coriolanus.” Jennifer Aniston is a gifted comedienne. If you could pay their salaries, wouldn’t you try to put them in a better movie than this? I saw the poster and had a sinking feeling the title gave away the whole story.

Roger Ebert is a film critic for The Chicago Sun-Times.

Is ‘Repo Men’ a satire or just an action flick?

‘R

epo Men” makes sci-fi’s strongest possible case for universal health care. In a world of the near future, where they still drive current cars, a giant corporation named the Union will provide you with a human heart, kidney, liver or other organ. Let’s say a pancreas costs you, oh, say $312,000. No, it’s not covered by insurance, but the sales guy says, “You owe it to yourself and your family.” For a guy in need of a pancreas, this is an eloquent argument.

Interest rates are around 19 percent.

Now let’s say you can’t make the payments. If you fall behind more than three months, they send around a repo man who shoots you with a stun gun, slices open your body, reaches in and repossesses the organ. To be sure, he puts on latex gloves first.

Let’s say you were conscious during such a procedure. Would it hurt? You bet it would. At one point in the film, our heroes Remy and Beth (Jude Law and Alice Braga) decide the only way to outwit the company’s computer is to repossess themselves. He has a donor heart, and as for Beth, her heart is her own, but it is surrounded

RO G E R EBERT

“Repo Men” 111 minutes R, for strong bloody violence, grisly images, language and some sexuality/nudity by guest organs. They don’t actually carve themselves open and REMOVE the organs. No, that would be fatal. But they have to reach inside each other with a bar-code scanner and scan them in. As Remy carves into his chest with a big old knife, you oughta see the way his fist clenches and you see him grit his teeth. He’s thinking, I wish I had the public option.

Remy and Beth find themselves locked in a corridor with a dozen guys from the evil corporation who are well-armed. They dodge the bullets and wham some guys with karate, and then Remy pauses, strips off his shirt, reveals his bare (pre-repo) chest, and is wearing kinky leather pants with buckles. From scabbards in the back, he withdraws

two long knives that help explain why he wasn’t seated earlier in the scene. He slices some other guys. Then he shouts “hacksaw!” to Beth and she slides it to him on the floor, and he whirls around and DECAPITATES three guys, it looked like, although it happened real fast.

What are people supposed to think? Is this an action scene, or satire? Does it make any difference? I dunno. I know the actors play everything with deep, earnest seriousness. The head of the Union corporation is Frank (Liev Schreiber), who demands complete dedication from his repo men and is humorously not humorous. Maybe he’s not the head of the whole Union, but only their immediate boss.

There are enough props in this movie to clean out the organ department at Moo & Oink’s.

When I say they’re up to their elbows in blood, I mean it. This work takes its toll. Remy’s friend at work is a repo man named Jake, played by Forest Whitaker.

Like most Forest Whitaker characters and Whitaker himself, he is a warm, nice man. I noticed for the second time in a week (after “Our Family Wedding”) that Whitaker has lost a lot of weight and looks great. I hope the extra pounds weren’t repo-ed.

HEADS UP “Stompin’ Stu Thomsen” — A film about the legendary BMX racer Stuart Thomsen. Featuring race footage and interviews, the film follows Thomsen from his beginnings as a kid through his heyday as a powerhouse of the sport to his current life after BMX. Part of the WebCyclery Movie Night series, the film will screen at 9 p.m.

Tuesday at McMenamins Old. St. Francis School in Bend. Cost is $5.

Proceeds benefit the Central Oregon Trail Alliance. (no MPAA rating)

WHAT’S NEW “The Bounty Hunter” — An inconsequential formula comedy and a waste of the talents of Jennifer Aniston and Gerard Butler. He’s a bounty hunter, she’s skipped bail on a traffic charge, they were once married, and that’s the end of the movie’s original ideas. We’ve seen earlier versions of every single scene to the point of catatonia. Rating: One and a half stars. (PG-13) “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” — Nimble, bright and funny comedy about the hero’s first year of middle school. Zachary Gordon stars as the uncertain newcomer and Robert Capron is his pudgy best pal, who still acts like a kid. Chloe Moretz sparkles as the only student who’s nice to them, and the movie amusingly remembers the tortures of early adolescence. Based on the books by Jeff Kinney. Rating: Three and a half stars. (PG) “The Ghost Writer” — In Roman Polanski’s thriller, a man without a past rattles around in the life of a man with too much of one. Ewan McGregor plays a ghost writer hired by a former British prime minister (Pierce Brosnan), whose previous ghost has mysteriously

In a rain-swept house on Martha’s Vineyard, McGregor meets the PM’s wife (Olivia Williams) and his assistant/mistress (Kim Cattrall), as an international controversy swirls. A splendidly acted and crafted immersive story.

Rating: Four stars. (PG-13) “Repo Men” — A giant corporation will provide you with a human heart or other organ, at a high price. If you fall behind in payments, they send around a Repo Man who stuns you, slices open your body, reaches in and repossesses the organ. The hero (Jude Law) is a repo man who finds the corporation is after his heart. The props must have cleaned out the organ meats cooler at a meat market. Also with Alice Braga, Forest Whitaker and Liev Schreiber. Rating: Two stars. (R) “The White Ribbon” — In a rural German village on the eve of World War I, bad things begin to happen.

A murder, a barn fire, a cruel trick.

Suspicion turns this way and that, but the facts don’t seem to point to a single malefactor. The movie relates what happens but isn’t a whodunit, and its message is that evil cannot be completely prevented and sometimes it takes place without a rational reason. The film has been described as about the rise of German fascism, but I think that’s too simple. It’s about how the rise of fear leads to the loss of freedom. Top winner at Cannes 2009 and nominated for Best Foreign Film. Rating: Four stars. (R)

STILL SHOWING “Alice in Wonderland” — Tim Burton’s brilliant revisualization of Lewis Carroll’s fantasy, with Alice (Mia Wasikowska) now grown up, and the mordant denizens of Wonderland still basking in peculiarity. Beautifully drawn and told, except for the thirdact surrender to formula action. The 3-D adds nothing, drains color, is a distraction. Rating: Three stars. (PG) “Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakquel” — The film is a kids comedy that screams “Direct to DVD.” It doesn’t help that it screams that in high, squeaky, three-part harmony. Whatever slim charms there were in the nostalgic, musically cute and slapstick-friendly first film of chipmunk mania are squished right out of “The Squeakquel” like so much rodent roadkill. The cast is cut-rate and the script needed a serious visit from a serious gag writer. Rating: One star. (PG)S “Avatar” — James Cameron silences his doubters by delivering an extraordinary film. There’s still one man in Hollywood who knows how to spend $250 million wisely. The story involves a mission by U.S. Armed Forces to an Earth-sized moon,

Pandora, in orbit around a massive star. They encounter a graceful race of towering blue-skinned forest dwellers living in harmony with their environment. Sam Worthington plays the hero, who is befriended by a Na’vi woman (Zoe Saldana) and chugs his allegiance. Awesome special effects, good storytelling.

Rating: Four stars. (PG-13) “The Blind Side” — This redemption-minded sports flick serves its inspiration straightup with no twist. Writer-director John Lee Hancock wisely lets the true story of Michael Oher — the African-American teen who found a home and, eventually, football stardom, after being adopted by a wealthy Memphis family — speak for itself. That direct focus delivers a feel-good crowd-pleaser. The movie dutifully chronicles the transformation of Oher (newcomer Quinton Aaron) from blank slate to a fully formed young man, emphasizing the involvement of Leigh Anne Tuohy (Sandra Bullock). Rating: Two and a half stars. (PG-13) “Brooklyn’s Finest” — Three cops, three journeys to what looks like doom. They aren’t bad guys, precisely, but they occupy a world of such unremitting violence that they’re willing to do what it takes to survive. Well-crafted, good performances, but a screenplay that pulls strings a little too obviously. Richard Gere, Don Cheadle, Ethan Hawke, Wesley Snipes. Rating: Three stars. (R) “The Crazies” — People in friendly Ogden Marsh, Iowa, start lurching around and killing their loved ones, and it’s up to the sheriff (Timothy Olyphant) and his doctor wife (Radha Mitchell) to figure out why — and survive. Well-enough

made and acted, but zombies for me have worn out their interest.

They lurch at you, you kill them, and maybe they’re dead. Rating: Two and a half stars. (R) “Crazy Heart” — Jeff Bridges won Best Actor for his performance as Bad Blake, a broke-down, boozy country singer with a stubborn pride. Maggie Gyllenhaal finds all the right notes as a much younger reporter who comes for an interview and stays to be kissed. With Robert Duvall and Colin Farrell in key supporting roles. Written and directed by first-timer Scott Cooper. Rating: Four stars. (R) “It’s Complicated” — Meryl Streep is a millionaire bakery owner in Santa Barbara who begins a warm friendship with her architect (Steve Martin) just as her ex-husband (Alec Baldwin) comes back into her love life. This inspires close calls, confusion among their children, fascination from her girlfriends and some funny scenes, but too many that belong on the day-old shelf.

Rating: Two and a half stars. (R) “Green Zone” — Matt Damon and his two-time Bourne director Paul Greengrass team up for a firstrate thriller set early in the war in Iraq. Damon’s chief warrant officer finds that U.S. intelligence is worthless, and his complaints lead him to discover the secret conspiracy intended to justify the American invasion. Greg Kinnear is the deceptive U.S. intelligence puppet-master, Brendan Gleeson is a grizzled old CIA hand whose agency has always doubted the stories about Saddam’s WMD, and Amy Ryan plays a newspaper reporter who serves Kinnear as a pipeline. Rating: Four stars. (R)

movies NEW DVD & B L U - R AY RELEASES The following movies were released to DVD on March 16.

The Associated Press

America Ferrera, center l e f t, and Lance Gross star in “Our Family Wedding.”

From previous page “The Last Station” — On his country estate, in his last year, Leo Tolstoy (Christopher Plummer) rules over a household of intrigues. His wife, Sofya (Helen Mirren), is in fierce battle with his disciple Chertkov (Paul Giamatti), who thinks the count should leave his estate to the Russian people and not to Sofya and their 13 children. Chertkov hires young Valentin (James McAvoy) to act as Tolstoy’s private secretary and a spy. Rating: Three stars. (R) “Our Family Wedding” — A marriage between an African-American doctor (Lance Gross) and a MexicanAmerican law student (America Ferrera) runs into difficulties when they meet each other’s families, and predictable sitcom dilemmas emerge.

The trumped-up feud between their fathers (Forest Whitaker and Carlos Mencia) rings false in every scene, and there’s at least one too many fights involving wedding cake. But America Ferrara and Lance Gross make a sympathetic couple, and Regina King is winsome as Whitaker’s lawyer and secret admirer. Rating: Two stars. (PG-13) “Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief” — A teenage New Yorker (Logan Lerman) discovers he is a demigod: The son of the Greek god Poseidon (Kevin McKidd) and a human mother (Catherine Keener).

Accused by an angry Zeus (Sean Bean) of having stolen his lightning bolt, he finds himself in the middle of an Olympian feud also involving Hades (Steve Coogan), Medusa (Uma Thurman), Persephone (Rosario Dawson) and Pierce Brosnan as the centaur Chiron. Directed as goofy fun by Chris Columbus.

Rating: Three stars. (PG) “Remember Me” — Two 20ish kids, one a sullen rebel son, the other the sweet daughter of a grieving father, fall in love and begin the transformations of their families.

Robert Pattinson and Emilie de Ravin play the young lovers, Pierce Brosnan is his rich and distant father and Chris Cooper is her police detective father. The story has undeniable appeal, but unfortunately depends on a late coincidence in an attempt to import profound meaning from outside the terms of the story.

Rating: Three stars. (PG-13) “Sherlock Holmes” — Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.), who has survived so much, here survives

an onslaught of special effects orchestrated by Guy Ritchie, in a CGI London never more dark and gloomy.

He and Watson (Jude Law) are on the trail of the Satanist Lord Blackwood, seemingly hanged and buried, but now returned from the grave. With Rachel McAdams as Irene Adler, reportedly the only woman to ever touch Holmes’ heart. Rating: Three stars. (PG-13) “She’s Out of My League” — A feckless agent for TSA airport security (Jay Baruchel) meets a breathtaking blonde (Alice Eve) who improbably likes him, this despite his friends informing him that she’s a perfect 10 and he’s maybe a five. Despite unhelpful friends, obnoxious former romantic partners and his unbelievable parents (who welcome his ex-girlfriend’s new boyfriend into their home!), the two are essentially sweet and nice, and are rewarded for their goodness. Rating: Three stars. (R) “Shutter Island” — Leonardo DiCaprio and Mark Ruffalo are U.S. marshals called to a forbidding island in Boston bay, the home of an old Civil War fort now used as a prison for the criminally insane. A child murderer has escaped her cell. Martin Scorsese relentlessly blends music, visuals, special effects and all of film noir tradition into an elegant horror film as fragmented as a nightmare.

Rating: Three and a half stars. (R) “Tooth Fairy” — Dwayne (The Rock) Johnson stars as a pro hockey player nicknamed “The Tooth Fairy” because of the dental damage he wreaks. But when he nearly destroys a young girl’s faith in the Tooth Fairy, he’s sentenced to a term in Fairy Land, where he meets the head fairy (Julie Andrews), the armorer (Billy Crystal) and a social worker (Stephen Merchant), who towers over The Rock, and he ain’t short. With Ashley Judd as the hero’s g.f. Good cast, limp screenplay, direction by the numbers. Rating: Two stars. (PG) “Valentine’s Day” — A traffic jam of 21 stars leads to a gridlocked plot.

From dawn to midnight, a group of incredibly attractive people inhabit incredibly routine plots. No time to develop realistic characters as the movie juggles its stories. With Ashton Kutcher, Jennifer Garner, Jessica Biel, Julia Roberts, Jamie Foxx, Anne Hathaway and lots more. Rating: Two stars. (PG-13)

— From wire and online sources

“Astro Boy” — Metro City orbits above an Earth buried in garbage.

Its citizens are waited on hand and foot by robots, and things will get even better now that Toby’s dad (Nicolas Cage) has invented the unlimited Blue energy.

But the warmonger president (Donald Sutherland) snatches the dangerous Red energy, Toby dies in an accident, his memories are transferred by his dad into the little robot Astro Boy, and so on. Bright and peppy, with a nice moral and, best of all, no 3-D. DVD Extras: Animated sequences, featurettes and image gallery. Rating: Three stars. (PG) “Broken Embraces” — Pedro Almodovar’s passionate new film.

A blind man (Lluis Homar), once a director, now a writer, learns the producer of his final film has died. He still hates this man.

Flashbacks reveal the history of their relationship, and the woman (Penelope Cruz) between them.

In the present, the dead man’s son enlists him in a project to gain vengeance on his father, and old secrets are discovered.

A voluptuary of a film, drunk on primary colors, caressing Penelope Cruz, using the devices of a Hitchcock to distract us with surfaces while the sinister uncoils beneath. DVD Extras: A short film

by Almodovar, featurettes and deleted scenes. Rating: Four stars. (R) “Did You Hear About The Morgans?” — Feuding couple from Manhattan (Hugh Grant and Sarah Jessica Parker) are forced to flee town under the Witness Protection Program, find themselves Fish Out of Water in Strange New World, meet Colorful Characters, survive Slapstick Adventures, end up Together at The End. The only part of that formula that still works is The End. With supporting roles for Sam Elliott and Wilford Brimley, sporting the two most famous mustaches in the movies. DVD Extras: Featurettes, audio commentary, deleted scenes and outtakes. Rating: One and a half stars. (PG-13) “The Fourth Kind” — Nome, Alaska (pop. 9,261), has so many disappearances and/or alien abductions that the FBI has investigated there 20 times more than in Anchorage.

So it’s claimed by this pseudo-doc that goes to inane lengths to appear factual. Milla Jovovich is good as a psychologist whose clients complain that owls stare at them in the middle of the night. DVD Extras: Deleted scenes.

Rating: One and a half stars. (PG-13) “Paris” — Filmmaker Cedric Klapisch’s symphonic tribute to the city he loves, with each character a movement. Not a travelogue with beauty shots, however, but set in very specific places. It’s unusual for an episodic film to involve us deeply in individual lives; we’re genuinely curious about what will happen to these people next. Starring Juliette Binoche, Romain Duris, Fabrice Luchini, Albert Dupontel and Francois Cluzet — all familiar faces. DVD extras: Featurettes.

Rating: Three and a half stars. (R)

“The Princess and the Frog” — The Disney studios still shelter animators who know how to make classic animated stories in an age when too many animated films feel obligated to assault us with input overload. Tiana (Anika Noni Rose) is a hardworking New Orleans lass who dreams of opening her own restaurant. A visiting prince, turned into a frog, begs her to kiss him, but then they both become frogs, in a story involving voodoo, sorcery and song. Spritely and high-spirited.

Voices by Anika Noni Rose, Bruno Campos, Oprah Winfrey, Keith David, Terrence Howard and John Goodman.

DVD Extras: Deleted scenes, audio commentary, DVD game and music video. Rating: Three stars. (G) “The Twilight Saga: New Moon” — The film takes the tepid achievement of “Twilight” (2008), guts it and leaves it for undead. You know you’re in trouble with a sequel when the word of mouth advises you to see the first movie twice instead. Bella (Kristen Stewart) is still living at home with her divorced dad, and Edward (Robert Pattinson) is back in school, repeating the 12th grade for the 84th time. DVD Extras: Audio commentary, featurettes and music videos. Scheduled for release on Saturday. Rating: One star. (PG-13) ALSO OUT THIS WEEK: “Armored,” “Bandslam” and “Ninja Assassin.”

COMING UP: Movies scheduled for national release March 23 include “The Blind Side,” “Fantastic Mr. Fox ” and “The Men Who Stare at Goats.” Check with local video stores for availability.
