He said he hoped to be able to announce early today that a shutdown, which would idle hundreds of thousands of federal employees, had been averted.

He made his comments after his third meeting in 24 hours with Speaker John Boehner and Sen. Harry Reid, the Democratic majority leader, in an effort to resolve a spending fight that had shifted from budget cuts to disputes over policy issues like environmental regulations and abortion.

The congressional leaders issued their own joint statement, saying that they and their advisers would “continue to work through the night to attempt to resolve our remaining differences.”

Sentencing is anticipated in late May, said lead prosecutor Beth Bagley from the Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office. Middlekauff could face life in prison. Under Oregon law, only a jury can issue a death sentence.

Speaking to a packed courtroom for nearly 45 minutes, Tiktin laid out the evidence against Middlekauff.

Darrell Middlekauff, 48, touches his face as he listens to Judge Stephen Tiktin’s verdict Thursday in Deschutes County Circuit Court. Middlekauff was found guilty of murdering his wife.

Darrell Middlekauff was found guilty on two counts of aggravated murder, first-degree murder, attempted sex abuse, six counts of delivering drugs to a minor and seven counts of sex abuse of underage girls Thursday afternoon in Deschutes County Circuit Court.

The conviction of Middlekauff,

48, comes more than eight years after the disappearance of his wife, Brenda Middlekauff, and more than five years after her remains were discovered buried in a steel drum near the Middlekauffs’ home south of Sunriver.

Judge Stephen Tiktin heard nearly eight weeks of arguments in the trial, which was conducted without a jury by Middlekauff’s choice.

Due to a prevalence of sinkholes, puddles and broken glass, a baseball field at the Skyline Sports Complex on Bend’s west side will be closed to organized leagues for a year.

Taylor Field, one of the four diamonds at Skyline Sports Complex near Cascade Middle School, will be under construction for three weeks while crews regrade the outfield, improve drainage, excavate the infield, and pull up rocks and pebbles.

Crews will also put down new lining and new infield soil, and reseed the area.

“It had started to become a safety hazard,” said Mike Duarte, Bend Park & Recreation District landscape manager. “And it just got to the point where we had to take some action.”

Players were complaining about the sinkholes in the field, and they were

worried about injuries while running on the uneven surface.

Park staff said there also has been concern of broken glass percolating to the surface from an organic landfill underneath the field. Shifting and settling materials in that landfill are also blamed for the sinkholes.

Duarte compared the current conditions at Taylor Field — with the exception of the glass — to those Summit High School experienced several years ago when a storm caused sinkhole problems on the athletic fields. Bend-La Pine Schools spent $7 million to fix those issues.

Because of the renovations and reseeding efforts, Taylor Field will be taken out of this season’s Bend Park & Recreation organized sports rotation.

Duarte said it most likely will not be ready until next year’s season.

Wayne Smith, the park district’s di-

rector of sports recreation, doesn’t believe the loss of Taylor Field will cause problems because of the addition of four new diamonds at Pine Nursery Park.

He said there are now about 15 baseball and softball diamonds in the district.

“There’s no shortage or hardship taking that one field out,” Smith said. “Last year we added those four new fields to the mix so there’s more than enough fields to play on.”

Duarte said students from the local middle school and others in the community will still be able to use the field once construction is finished.

“We know that we can’t stop everyone from going on it,” he said.

Duarte said the fences that have gone in during construction will be removed once crews are finished.

“It’ll be in really great shape once the grass gets in there,” said Duarte.

“It won’t look like a prison or anything once it’s done.”

Page A3 A blunt assessment circulating among American officials says, “Current capabilities can only handle a few radiation injuries at any one time.”

That assessment, prepared by the Department of Homeland Security in 2010 and stamped “for official use only,” says, “There is no strategy for notifying the public in real time of recommendations on shelter or evacuation priorities.”

The Homeland Security report, plus several other reports and interviews with almost two dozen experts inside and outside the government, reveals gaps that may increase the risks posed by a nuclear accident or terrorist attack.

One example: The U.S. Strategic National Stockpile stopped purchasing the best-known agent to counter radioactive iodine-induced thyroid cancer in young people, potassium iodide, about two years ago and designated the remaining supply “excess,” according to information provided by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Despite this, the CDC website still lists potassium iodide as one of only four drugs in the stockpile specifically for use in radiation emergencies.

Potassium iodide is most effective when administered within hours of exposure. The decision to stop stockpiling it was made, in part, because distribution could take too long in a fast-moving emergency, an official said.

Do migratory birds ‘hear’ their way home?

By Lisa M. Krieger San Jose Mercury News

SAN JOSE, Calif. — Missing for months, colorful flocks of flycatchers, warblers, orioles and black-headed grosbeaks are once again abundant in the Bay Area. And they’ve navigated with such precision — despite lengthy

journeys with no maps — that they return to the same park, the same yard or even the same tree.

Did they hear their way home?

That’s the idea behind a new theory

by U.S. Geological Survey geophysicist Jon Hagstrum, whose research suggests that birds navigate by using

Earth’s low-frequency sound waves to identify the “address” of home.

“They are imprinting on the characteristic sound” of where they live, he told a crowd last week at a lecture at USGS headquarters in Menlo Park, Calif.

SpaceX is poised to make a giant leap

By W.J. Hennigan Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Work is quietly under way on a massive 22-story rocket whose power is rivaled in the U.S. only by the mighty Saturn V rocket, which took man to the moon, in a risky private venture that could herald a new era in space flight.

Dubbed Falcon Heavy, the 27engine booster is being assembled by rocket maker Space Exploration Technologies Corp., or SpaceX, at its sprawling complex in Hawthorne, Calif., where it has about 1,100 workers.

The rocket has twice the lifting capability of the next largest launcher built by a U.S. company.

“We’re embarking on something that’s unprecedented in the space industry,” Elon Musk, the company’s chief executive, told the Los Angeles Times. “This is territory that has only belonged to the U.S. government — with its tens of billions of dollars.”

Musk’s company is building the 227-foot-tall Falcon Heavy, even though there are no guarantees that the military or NASA will step forward to pay for the rocket to lift its payloads into space someday.

SpaceX hopes to launch it in a demonstration flight from Vandenberg Air Force Base, northwest of Santa Barbara, Calif., at the end of next year.

In December, SpaceX became the first private company to blast a spacecraft into Earth’s orbit and have it return intact.

The unmanned flight was intended to show NASA that SpaceX could handle the task of

An artist rendering provided by Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX), shows SpaceX’s new rocket Falcon Heavy.

On Tuesday, Elon Musk, CEO and chief rocket designer, unveiled plans to launch the world’s most powerful rocket since man went to the moon.

carrying cargo into space.

With federal money in short supply, the U.S. government is expected to turn to private industry to play a bigger role in building rockets, carrying cargo, running space missions and possibly carrying astronauts to the International Space Station.

SpaceX’s selling point is its low price per launch.

NASA has already invested $298 million in seed money to help SpaceX develop and build its smaller nine-engine Falcon 9 rocket and its Dragon space capsule. The space agency has awarded the company a $1.6 billion contract to have SpaceX’s

Dragon transport cargo to the space station — with trips possibly starting later this year.

SpaceX has also signed lucrative deals with commercial satellite makers to lift their precious hardware into space. The company’s backlog includes the largest commercial deal of its kind: a $492 million contract with telecommunications company Iridium Communications Inc. “SpaceX has established credibility in the commercial market and with NASA,” said Tim Farrar, president of consulting and research firm Telecom, Media & Finance Associates. “The Falcon Heavy is going to open

more markets.”

SpaceX does not have a contract with the Air Force, which handles communications and spy satellites launches, or the National Reconnaissance Office, the secretive federal umbrella agency that operates spy satellites.

“The Air Force has expressed interest,” he said. “I’m very confident that we will have a deal by the time of the Falcon Heavy demo flight.”

The Pentagon currently has only has one launch provider, United Launch Alliance, a joint venture of Lockheed Martin Corp. and Boeing Co. The company’s Delta IV Heavy is the vehicle

that lifts its $1 billion satellites into space. It is the nation’s largest unmanned rocket, capable of lifting a maximum payload of about 50,000 pounds into low earth orbit. Each rocket costs up to $275 million, the Federal Aviation Administration estimated.

The Falcon Heavy will give the Pentagon another option, Musk said, by being able to lift 117,000 pounds to low Earth orbit and sell for a fraction of the price, Musk said.

“There’s no point in matching the competition,” he said. “We want to steamroll them. We’re trying to make this a complete no-brainer.”

Plant disease raises questions on modified crops

By P.J. Huffstutter Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Bouncing down a dirt road a couple of summers ago, past a gentle patchwork of barnyards and soybean fields in central Iowa, farmer Kent Friedrichsen strained over the steering wheel of his van and stared through the windshield in dismay.

His soybean fields, where he’d used seeds developed by Monsanto Co. and sprayed with its popular glyphosate weed killer Roundup Ready, were littered with yellowed leaves and dead plants. Four days earlier, the plants had been waist high and emerald green.

Nearby, in fields where he had planted seeds that weren’t genetically engineered and didn’t use glyphosates, the soybean plants were still healthy and lush.

Farmers call this “sudden death syndrome,” a plant disease that has plagued the country’s heartland and the nation’s estimated $36.8 billion soybean industry. Scientists who first spotted the disease in Arkansas in 1971 blame damp weather and a fungus that rots the plant roots.

Friedrichsen said, “for years, I’ve wondered whether there wasn’t something else.”

Now, despite mountains of research to the contrary, one soil scientist is roiling the agricultural world with claims that there might be some truth to the farmer’s unease.

Don Huber, an emeritus professor at Purdue University who has done research for Monsanto on chemical herbicides, alleges that he has found a link between genetically modified crops and crop diseases: an “unknown organism” he and other researchers claim to have discovered last summer in Midwestern fields like Friedrichsen’s.

“This organism appears new to science!” Huber wrote in a letter in January to Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack about the matter. He claimed the unknown organism may also be linked to infertility in livestock.

He added, “I believe the threat we are facing from this pathogen is unique and of a high-risk status. In layman’s terms, it should be treated as an emergency.”

Huber, 76, asked in the letter for the U.S. Department of Agriculture to investigate.

A USDA spokesman said Huber’s letter was forwarded to its correspondence office on April 1.

“As part of normal protocol, Mr. Huber’s letter will receive a response,” the agency said in a

statement.

Though the science behind Huber’s claims is far from settled — and Huber has refused to make public any evidence of his claims — his letter has intensified the battle between those who believe technology is the only way to feed a ballooning global population and those who are increasingly fearful that biotechnology is resulting in food that is nutritionally lacking and environmentally dangerous.

This year, the Obama administration announced several decisions that have generated concern in the organic farming industry.

After conducting a court-ordered environmental impact review, Vilsack approved the planting of genetically modified alfalfa.

Alfalfa, like the soybean, is a legume and a key food source

“I believe the threat we are facing from this pathogen is unique and of a high-risk status.

In layman’s terms, it should be treated as an emergency.”

— Don Huber, emeritus professor, Purdue University

for livestock and dairy cattle. To the organic farming industry, the fear is one of possible contamination, in the form of seeds or pollen from genetically engineered crops being picked up by the wind, bees or birds and falling onto nearby organic fields. Such

contamination can be devastating to organic farmers, cheese makers and dairy producers, who say even the smallest presence of genetically engineered seed can result in domestic retailers and overseas buyers refusing to buy their products.

Huber’s letter was leaked onto the Internet in February and was posted on scores of websites, including the Huffington Post and gardening blogs. It also catapulted Huber into the spotlight.

In an interview, he called his finding “it.” Huber said this is all he knows: “It’s a life form.”

It could be innocuous, Huber said. It may have been around for a long time, even if scientists never knew it.

Huber declined to say publicly who his fellow researchers are, saying they are worried

about professional backlash by their academic employers who received research funding from the biotechnology industry. Peers wondered if it was a fraud.

The letter sparked a response from Monsanto. The company, contending that industry and academic research had disproved other allegations Huber has previously made about its products, posted a statement on its website challenging the letter’s claims.

The company said it wouldn’t ignore the letter because “we feel it is important for us to look into allegations involving our products.

Our statement and subsequent conversations focus on requests to see the data used in drafting the letter, as decades of farmer use and data from numerous sources show a very different reality.”

T S Afghan police complex hit by gunmen and car bomb New York Times News Service KANDAHAR, Afghanistan — Taliban insurgents carried out a deadly two-stage attack in this southern capital Thursday, using an ambulance packed with explosives to bomb a police and military training center that had just been assaulted by heavily armed insurgents wearing suicide vests.

Police officers and NATO and Afghan soldiers cordoned off the area after the initial attack but allowed the ambulance to enter the center, thinking it had arrived to pick up casualties, said Khan Mohammed Mujahid, the Kandahar provincial police chief.

Seconds later, the ambulance exploded.

The attacks killed six people — four members of the Afghan intelligence service, one police officer and one Afghan national army soldier. Twelve police officers were wounded in the explosion.

Qari Youssef Ahmadi, a Taliban spokesman for southern Afghanistan, said his group carried out the attacks.

In a visit to Kandahar on Thursday, Gen. David Petraeus attributed the violence over the weekend to “infiltrators” who had “hijacked” Afghans’ legitimate outrage over the burning of the Quran.

Libyan rebels say NATO hit their tanks

By C.J. Chivers and Kareem Fahim New York Times News Service

ZUEITINA, Libya — The commander of the rebel army said it was “likely” that NATO warplanes conducted an airstrike against a convoy of rebel tanks early Thursday, killing at least four people in the second case of friendly fire in less than a week.

The commander, Gen. Abdul Fattah Younes, said the tanks — deployed by the rebels on Thursday to the frontlines for the first time — came under “a fierce attack” around 10:30 a.m. “It is likely it is NATO by mistake,” he said, adding that the rebels had notified NATO well in advance that the tanks were headed to the battlefield.

Younes said he was still waiting for an apology from the organization. “It is not possible to make a mistake with 20 tanks advancing on a large patch of desert land,” he said. “We hope that such a mistake will not be repeated.”

He did not say how many tanks were destroyed, but a tank driver in the convoy said eight were damaged or destroyed.

NATO is investigating A NATO official in Brussels said the organization was looking into the rebels’ account but did not have enough information to comment as yet.

The strike, against 17 rebel tanks making their debut on the battlefield, was a particularly untimely setback for a campaign that had lost momentum in the last week and has withered before the Gadhafi forces’ overwhelming advantage in equipment and heavy weapons. On Thursday, Younes said trainers from

House votes to bar EPA from regulating industrial emissions WASHINGTON — The House voted 255 to 172 Thursday to halt the Obama administration’s program to regulate industrial air emissions linked to climate change, delivering a rebuke to a central tenet of the president’s energy and environmental policy.

Nineteen Democrats joined in approving a bill that, were it to become law, would bar the Environmental Protection Agency from acting to limit emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases that the agency has declared a threat to human health and the environment.

The measure would also nullify a 2007 Supreme Court ruling that gave the agency the authority to issue regulations to curb those emissions.

The bill stands little chance of becoming law because a similar measure voted on in the Senate on Wednesday came up 10 votes short of the 60 votes needed to avert a filibuster. President Barack Obama this week threatened to veto any measure that would hinder efforts to restrict emissions that some scientists say are leading to devastating changes in the global climate.

Aftershock complicates efforts at power plants

By Hiroko Tabuchi and Andrew Pollack New York Times News Service

National Transitional Council

A dust cloud is seen following the explosion of a missile, outside the strategic oil port of Brega, Libya, on Thursday. An apparent NATO airstrike slammed into a rebel combat convoy Thursday, killing at least five fighters and sharply boosting anger among anti-government forces after the second bungled mission in a week blamed on the military alliance.

“It is not possible to make ing a seesaw battle for weeks with the better equipped and trained a mistake with 20 tanks Gadhafi forces. advancing on a large patch of desert land.

Qatar were teaching rebel fighters how to use anti-tank weapons.

This would be the second time in less than a week that NATO warplanes struck a rebel target. On Saturday, Western warplanes killed 13 rebels in the same region of eastern Libya, where they have been fight-

off outrage among the troops, with some fighters shouting “Down with NATO” along the road from Brega to Ajdabiya, The Associated Press reported.

NATO has also been criticized by rebel leaders for what they say is its failure to keep up the pace of attacks on the loyalist forces that was established in the first two weeks of the conflict. NATO officials have rejected the criticism, saying that NATO was flying more missions every day.

Kidnapping suspect pleads not guilty PLACERVILLE, Calif. — In a surprise development, Philip Garrido, the convicted sex offender accused of kidnapping and holding Jaycee Dugard captive for 18 years, pleaded not guilty on Thursday as his lawyer challenged the composition of the grand jury that indicted him and his wife last fall.

Garrido had been widely expected to plead guilty to all counts after a lawyer for Garrido’s wife, Nancy, indicated that a plea deal had been reached.

Last month, Garrido’s lawyer, Stephen Tapson reported — accurately, apparently — that the Garridos had confessed to their crimes, which included raping and kidnapping Dugard, then 11 years old, in 1991. The Garridos then held Dugard captive for 18 years, during which time Garrido fathered her two children.

The judge, Douglas Phimister, accepted the not guilty pleas on Thursday from both Philip and Nancy Garrido and set a trial date for August.

JAPAN

TOKYO — The strongest aftershock to hit since the day of the March 11 earthquake and tsunami in Japan rocked a wide section of the country’s northeast on Thursday night, prompting a tsunami alert, raising fears of further damage to the crippled Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear plant and knocking out external power at three other nuclear facilities.

The public broadcaster, NHK, said there were local reports of injuries, fires and blackouts. The aftershock had a magnitude of 7.1, according to the U.S. Geological Survey. Last month’s quake, which devastated much of the northeastern coast, was measured at 9.0.

The tsunami alert, which warned of waves up to 3 feet and possibly higher in some areas, was lifted after about an hour and a half, and the Japan Meteorological Agency said no tsunami had been detected.

Workers at the Fukushima Dai-ichi plant were told to take cover until the tsunami warning was lifted, but Japanese officials said at a news conference that water was being automatically pumped into three damaged reactors in the crucial effort to keep their nuclear fuel cool.

Monitoring posts around the plant were not showing any increase in radiation levels, the company said.

Thursday’s aftershock was the strongest since March 11, according to the Geological Survey.

Hundreds of aftershocks have followed the initial quake.

The Washington Post

Had he been interested in real compromise, they say, he would have done what he did in December, when he quietly put together a deal to extend the Bush tax cuts. “Why wasn’t that the model?” House Majority Leader Eric Cantor, R-Va., said Thursday. “He could have brought us in in January, February, March and talked to us about this, prior to getting to the expiration point.

He didn’t. There wasn’t any interest in doing it.”

His critics on the left take the opposite view. They fret that the president is so committed to avoiding partisan mud fights that he has been unwilling to draw bright lines with the Republicans and take the case to the public.

“His instinct is to avoid conflict and to deliver on his promise of getting beyond ideological partisan debates,” said Thomas Mann, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution.

But Mann said that style of leadership may have run its course, given the wide gulf between the parties on budget priorities. “I think it’s come close to the end of the line for him,” he added. “And this is a really truly fateful moment in his presidency. ... It’s time for him to engage.”

What explains the president’s approach? Everything from personal temperament to lessons learned to political survival, according to other politicians and

Shutdown Continued from A1 When Reid later took to the Senate floor, he said the issues dividing the two sides were “extremely narrow,” but it was far from certain that they could be worked out in time. “I am not really confident, but I am very, very hopeful,” he said.

Given the uncertainty and the short time remaining, federal agencies prepared to furlough employees and cut off most services. Workers, contractors and consumers scrambled to understand how a shutdown would affect them, and Democrats warned of harm to the economy. The two parties also maneuvered to assign blame to each other in the event that no deal could be reached, and neither side was certain that it could predict the political repercussions of a shutdown.

The policy disputes involved a handful of provisions. One would greatly limit financing for Planned Parenthood and other family-planning providers — in the United States and overseas — and prevent the District of Columbia from using its own tax dollars to help poor women pay for abortions.

Also at issue were measures that would restrict the regulatory powers of the Environmental Protection Agency, a favorite

Nuclear Continued from A1 The interagency group that governs the stockpile decided that “other preparedness measures were more suitable to mitigate potential exposures to radioactive iodine that would result from a release at a nuclear reactor,” a CDC spokesperson said in an e-mail to ProPublica.

About $200 million in federal funding has been invested since 2008 to develop new diagnostics and treatments, but HHS officials say most are still years away from approval.

Japan’s ongoing nuclear crisis may prompt officials to revisit that conclusion. With radiation levels higher than expected outside the evacuation zones in some areas, the Japanese government recently asked the United States for potassium iodide. The federal government agreed to send some of its dwindling stockpile of the liquid version, which is due to reach its expiration date within about a year. The government is currently “finalizing the paperwork,” according to an official with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

Another example: While hospitals near nuclear power plants often practice handling radiological emergencies, few hospitals outside of those areas perform such drills. Most medical personnel are untrained and unfamiliar with the level of risk posed by radiation, whether it is released from a nuclear power plant, a “dirty” bomb laced with radioactive material or the explosion of an improvised nuclear weapon.

Although the risk of radiation exposure from treating contaminated patients outside the danger

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., steps away from the podium after a news conference on Capitol Hill on Thursday. target of Republicans since they took over the House this year, by preventing the agency from enforcing significant portions of the Clean Air Act and regulating carbon emissions.

The parties continued to spar over spending levels as well, although they were not that far apart in the context of a $3.5 trillion federal budget. According to congressional officials, Boehner had proposed $39 billion in cuts to the current year’s budget on Wednesday after his bid for $40 billion was rejected the day before. Democrats took the new

offer under review.

Top budget staff, after working through the night, returned Thursday morning with a proposed $34.5 billion in cuts, with $3 billion of that to come from the Pentagon. Democrats said they believed that plan put the two sides close to an agreement, with just a few billion dollars separating them.

Democrats said Boehner insisted that any deal also include some of so-called policy riders, which they argued injected conservative ideology into what should be a numbers battle.

zone is considered negligible when workers are properly trained and wear protective equipment, U.S. hospital workers have said in national surveys that they would be less willing to report to work for a radiological or nuclear incident than for other types of emergencies.

Without supportive care, about 50 percent of people exposed to 3.5 gray, a measure of radiation dose, would die.

Proper care would almost double the exposure level at which 50 percent would survive, but only a small fraction of American medical professionals have training and expertise in treating radiation injury.

Many states don’t have a basic radiation emergency plan for communicating with the public or responding to the health risks. Even something as fundamental as the importance of sheltering inside sturdy buildings to avoid exposure to radioactive fallout from a nuclear explosion isn’t well known by the public.

The radiation dose rate from fallout drops 90 percent every seven hours.

Recently White House and other federal officials concerned about deficiencies in public readiness met with experts to explore what might be done to make nuclear events more survivable.

“The bottom line is that the citizenry are not prepared at all,” said Michael McDonald, president of Global Health Initiatives, who participated in White House and Congressional briefings. “The common misperception is any nuclear blast means everybody’s vaporized. That’s just wrong.”

Murder Continued from A1 Tiktin described how, in conversations with his fellow inmates and in letters and phone calls from jail, Middlekauff had revealed extensive knowledge of the circumstances of his wife’s death, information he could not have known had he not been her killer.

Brenda Middlekauff’s remains were discovered in July 2005, when a woman who had recently bought a piece of property came across a steel barrel that had been partially buried on her land.

The body was found nude and wrapped in bedding and a tarp, with a plastic bag cinched over the head. She had been shot three times in the head with a .22 caliber gun.

At the time, Darrell Middlekauff was incarcerated on unrelated charges at Snake River Correctional Institution in Ontario. Deputies from the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office visited Middlekauff and told him his wife’s remains had been found, but revealed few details.

Within a month, Middlekauff penned two letters to a teenage girl he’d had a sexual relationship with in late 2004. In the letters, Middlekauff suggested the girl had been a partner in his wife’s murder, referencing a bag placed over Brenda Middlekauff’s head, a too-shallow burial and the teenage girl firing the first of multiple shots to Brenda Middlekauff’s head.

In a phone call placed from the Deschutes County jail, Middlekauff spoke with an acquaintance who told him investigators had asked him about a chrome pistol Middlekauff had owned prior to his arrest. In the record-

independent analysts.

“The public is used to presidents trying to bend history and shape events,” said conservative analyst Pete Wehner. “He seems to be something of a counterpuncher. He’s a person of liberal ambitions but a cautious temperament.”

Obama learned from his long battle to enact health care reform the political damage of becoming too closely identified with the messy process of passing legislation on Capitol Hill. That is probably one reason he kept his distant on this round of the budget fight.

The midterm election losses reminded the president’s advisers that his re-election will depend to a great degree on his ability to win back the votes of independents, who prefer compromise to confrontation and results to political point-scoring.

Obama came to Washington promising to change the tone and move beyond partisanship. Although the capital and the country remain deeply polarized, Obama has returned to those themes in the wake of the midterm elections in an effort to appeal to the middle of the electorate.

Republicans don’t fully buy that description. They see a president who can be arrogant, preachy and condescending, whether in his public comments or private meetings with congressional leaders.

Obama set his strategic priori-

ties months ago, once the Democrat-controlled Congress failed to pass a long-term funding bill during the lame-duck session last year, according to a senior White House official, who declined to be identified in order to share some of the administration’s thinking about the budget battle.

“We do not want a government shutdown,” the official said. “It would be bad for the economy. So the question was, how do we maximize our chances of avoiding that — though it may be unavoidable.

We worked back from that.”

The official said that led the president to refrain from any public flaying of the deep spending cuts approved by the House at the beginning of the year, despite pressure from the left to do so.

“You could score points on various cuts they made,” he said. “But to do that would lessen chances of getting a deal at the end.”

Obama might be motivated, as well, by the reality that there may be no clear winners from a shutdown. Sixteen years ago, President Bill Clinton was battling House Speaker Newt Gingrich, R-Ga., over the budget, a fight that eventually led to a shutdown that badly hurt the Republicans.

But Clinton had the upper hand, because Gingrich was unpopular.

Boehner has a different profile — “not nearly as threatening as Gingrich was,” said Andrew Kohut of the Pew Research Center.

“This is no longer about the budget deficit,” said Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois, the No. 2 Senate Democrat. “It’s about bumper stickers.”

Boehner rejected assertions by the top Democrats that the policy divide was all that was holding up a deal.

“There are a number of issues that are on the table, and any attempt to try to narrow this down to one or two just would not be accurate,” Boehner said.

He and others noted that attaching policy instructions to spending bills was a congressional tradition embraced by both parties. “It’s been a longtime practice of the House and the Senate to not only set spending levels but also dictate how that money is to be spent,” Boehner said.

Despite Obama’s threat to veto the measure, the House passed a Republican plan to keep federal agencies open another week, to cut $12 billion in spending and to provide the Pentagon with money through Sept. 30. Republicans hoped the legislation, which passed 247 to 181, would show that they had made a serious effort to avert a shutdown and leave Senate Democrats and the administration facing criticism for cutting off money to members of the military serving overseas.

“If you vote against this bill, you are voting against the troops who are engaged in three wars,”

said Rep. Harold Rogers, the Kentucky Republican who chairs the Appropriations Committee. Rep. Kevin McCarthy of California, the No. 3 House Republican, said the veto threat was “shameful.”

Jay Carney, the White House press secretary, dismissed the stopgap bill and said a bipartisan deal on funding the government for the rest of this fiscal year remained in reach.

“We have been negotiating in good faith, and we have closed the gap,” Carney said. “We do not need another short-term measure with $12 billion of additional spending cuts separate from these negotiations because we are now at a point where we can get the deal done. The people expect us to get the deal done.”

With the prospect that much of the government would cease to operate after midnight tonight, preparations for a shutdown began in earnest.

Federal agencies and congressional offices began telling workers who would be considered essential — and should come to work — and who should stay home. On Capitol Hill, staff members who were not deemed essential were warned that they could face sanctions if they tried to do any work. Lawmakers and top aides were briefed on the finer points of a shutdown, some shaking their heads in dismay as they left the meetings.

ed call, Middlekauff expressed surprise, Tiktin said, saying “but that one was a .38,” a hint that he knew a different kind of gun had been used to shoot his wife.

Tiktin read an excerpt from a letter Middlekauff sent to The Bulletin while he was in jail, in which he wrote he had been questioned about his wife’s disappearance, but was “not a Ward Weaver,” a reference to the Oregon City man who was arrested in 2002 and later convicted for killing two teenage girls. The letter, Tiktin said, corroborated statements from men who had been jailed with Middlekauff, who testified he had read them a poem he had written about various serial killers, including Weaver, which made references to burying somebody inside a drum.

During the defense phase of the trial, Middlekauff took the stand to dispute many of the statements attributed to him. He said the letters to the teenage girl had been intended as fictional, and were based on prison rumors he’d heard about his wife’s death with “disinformation” he had made up in an attempt to mislead investigators. Middlekauff read a poem he said was the one he’d read to his fellow inmates, a version that included no violent imagery, and, he said, had been written for his daughter’s mother while he was in prison in California in 1992.

Middlekauff told another man, his cellmate at the Deschutes County jail, that investigators were looking for his wife, but are “not going to find her,” Tiktin said.

Tiktin said Thursday Middlekauff’s communication about Brenda Middlekauff’s disappearance and death were essentially a confession of his involvement.

“Mr. Middlekauff made a variety of statements to a variety

of people,” Tiktin said. “He probably should know better than to talk to people in jail, but he didn’t.

He probably should know better than to write letters that would be intercepted and read. He wrote the letters anyway. He probably should know better than to talk on jail and prison telephones that are being monitored and recorded, but he didn’t.”

The charges of sex abuse and delivering drugs to a minor stem from Middlekauff’s relationships with the teenage girl he’d been involved with in 2004, and a second teenage girl he knew during the same period.

Middlekauff’s multiple murder convictions for a single killing resulted from the different aggravating factors prosecutors attached to the murder charges.

The two aggravated murder convictions come from the charge he had sexually abused Brenda Middlekauff before killing her, and that he killed her as a means of covering up the sexual abuse. He

A shutdown would create wide ripples

By Motoko Rich New York Times News Service

It’s not just an estimated 800,000 federal employees who would feel the financial pinch of a government shutdown.

Among the people anxiously waiting to hear if Congress can reach a budget deal are front desk clerks at the Ahwahnee Hotel in Yosemite National Park, manufacturing executives whose companies supply goods to federal agencies and bank loan officers who make mortgages guaranteed by the Federal Housing Administration.

The federal government is, after all, a very big business, and temporarily pulling the plug would disrupt many other businesses.

President Barack Obama has warned that the looming shutdown could stall the already fragile economic recovery by choking off muchneeded paychecks to workers and introducing another level of uncertainty in an already uncertain world.

Economists are divided as to how much the shutdown would rattle the economy. Of course, some of it depends on how long any stoppage lasts.

If Congress agrees to a budget quickly, it might be just a few national park visitors who are disappointed over the weekend. But if the hiatus stretches to a week — or to nearly three weeks as it did in 1995 — then the ripples could fan out.

The federal government is such a large customer that many companies, like Booz Allen or Verizon, could be forced to cut back on workers’ hours, although these two companies and many others declined to comment on their plans Thursday.

At the national parks, many of the hotels and restaurants are operated by private concerns that will most likely suspend some workers if the parks are closed.

In Yosemite, for example, Delaware North Companies Parks and Resorts operates four hotels with 972 rooms and 13 restaurants. A company spokeswoman, Lisa Cesaro, said that if the shutdown continued beyond the weekend, all lodging and food operations would close, and workers would be forced to take vacation time or unpaid leave.

Government contractors are worried not only about payments, but also about what to do with inventories they would normally ship to agencies that may be closed.

was found not guilty of aggravated murder as a result of torture.

Bagley said she was “pleased and relieved” to have secured convictions against Middlekauff.

She said assembling the case was the biggest challenge of her career, and compared it to putting together a “1,000-piece puzzle.”

“In terms of seriousness and complexity and duration, this has been a first,” Bagley said.

Sgt. Chad Davis, the lead investigator for the Sheriff’s Office, credited prosecutors with distilling thousands of pieces of information and evidence into a coherent case against Middlekauff.

It may get worse.

You may not need surgery to make it better.

Ask your doctor about XIAFLEX®, the only nonsurgical, FDA-approved treatment for adults with Dupuytren’s contracture when a cord can be felt.

Call 1-877-XIAFLEX or visit MYXIAFLEX.com to find a hand specialist near you.

XIAFLEX® is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with Dupuytren’s contracture when a “cord” can be felt.

Over time, the thickening of this cord in your hand can cause one or more fingers to bend toward your palm, so that you cannot straighten them.

XIAFLEX should be injected into the cord by a healthcare provider who is experienced in injection procedures of the hand and treating people with Dupuytren’s contracture. XIAFLEX helps to break down the cord that is causing the finger to be bent.

Before receiving XIAFLEX, tell your healthcare provider if you have had an allergic reaction to a previous XIAFLEX injection, or have a bleeding problem or any other medical conditions.

Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and non-prescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements. Be sure to tell them if you use blood thinners such as aspirin, clopidogrel (Plavix®), prasugrel hydrochloride (Effient®), or warfarin sodium (Coumadin®).

If you have Dupuytren’s contracture, the rope-like cord you feel in the palm of your hand will continue to cause your fingers to bend toward your palm, and may worsen over time.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION XIAFLEX can cause serious side effects, including: • Tendon or ligament damage.

Receiving an injection of XIAFLEX may cause damage to a tendon or ligament in your hand and cause it to break or weaken. This could require surgery to fix the damaged

tendon or ligament. Call your healthcare provider right away if you have trouble bending your injected finger (towards the wrist) after the swelling goes down or you have problems using your treated hand after your follow-up visit.

• Nerve injury or other serious injury of the hand. Call your healthcare provider if you get numbness, tingling, or increased pain in your treated finger or hand after your injection or after your follow-up visit.

• Allergic reactions. Allergic reactions can happen in people who have received an injection of XIAFLEX because it contains foreign proteins.

Call your healthcare provider right away if you have any of these symptoms of an allergic reaction after an injection of XIAFLEX: hives; swollen face; breathing trouble; or chest pain.

Please see Brief Summary of the Full Prescribing Information on adjacent page.

How birds may use sound to navigate Constant earth tremors, called microseisms, are created by waves in deep ocean waters.

The tremors are faint — measuring less than a micron — but emit low-frequency sound waves that radiate off steep-sided terrain, like hills.

Birds can detect these “infrasonic” waves, but can be easily confused by infrasonic waves from planes, rough seas and explosions.

They learn the characteristic sound of home, based on terrain and other key landmarks.

They fly from sonic landmark to landmark, with younger birds learning the route from their elders. When lost, they can circle until they hear it again.

Source: U.S. Geological Survey geophysicist Jon Hagstrum

Birds Continued from A1 “The terrain has characteristic frequencies. I think that is the sound they are listening to.”

Birds may even perceive the world as a vast sonic environment, hearing many frequencies bouncing off different landmarks, such as mountains and buildings, generated by the Earth’s movement.

It’s long been known that birds use celestial and magnetic compass senses to orient their flight.

But how do they determine their location so they can select the correct homeward bearing? That remains controversial.

Using a body of homingpigeon data, along with weather records and atmospheric-modeling software, Hagstrum found strong correlations between pigeon races gone haywire and disrupted “infrasonic” waves.

Humans can’t hear infrasound, but birds can. These very lowfrequency acoustic waves come from different natural sources, but particularly the subtle tremors of the Earth’s crust — so each part of the planet has its own distinct “sonic signature.” And these infrasonic sounds travel thousands of miles, far longer than ordinary sound waves.

The finely calibrated and seasonal pull of migration is a longstanding mystery, especially to those of us who manage to miss well-marked exit ramps on 101.

A creature weighing mere ounces can fly thousands of miles, through darkness and storm, then land at our modest feeder.

“Site specificity is fascinating,” said Bob Power, director of the Santa Clara County Audubon Society. “Birds return to the exact same backyard, or corner of the park, year after year. Anybody who has had a bird that disappeared for six months, and returned in the exact same spot, has to be puzzled. How do they do that?

“Many, many theories, from many different experts, have been put forth,” he said.

Birds wintering down in South America are unlikely to hear the sounds of their final Bay Area destination thousands of miles away, Hagstrum said. Rather, they break up their journey into sections — then fly from one distinctive set of sounds, or “wave points,” to another.

Because they fly in flocks, younger birds learn these distinctive wave points while traveling with their elders. And when they get lost, they circle, perhaps to reorient what they’re hearing, he said.

Hagstrum was intrigued by pigeon-racing disasters and, in his spare time, decided to investigate what went wrong.

The most infamous incident took place on June 29, 1997, at a celebration of Britain’s Royal Pigeon Racing Association’s 100th anniversary. More than 60,000 trained birds were released from southern France. Then, the crowd anxiously awaited their arrival home in southern England.

Just a few thousand of the birds were ever seen again.

What happened? Pigeon fanciers fear losing one or two birds, but tens of thousands?

Hagstrum noticed a curious coincidence. That same morning, the Concorde supersonic transport plane was flying across the English Channel en route to New York from Paris. But its departure time was 8:30 a.m. — far earlier than the birds’ 10 a.m. release time.

Phoning the Concorde office, he asked: “Was your plane late that day?” Their response: “Are you a magician? It was two and a half hours late!”

“It was probably the most exciting moment of my career,” he recalled. “I realized I was onto something.”

He’s analyzed three other botched races and also found sources of interrupted infrasonic sound waves.

11 kids killed in Brazil’s worst school shooting

By Juliana Barbassa The Associated Press

RIO DE JANEIRO — A gunman roamed the halls of an elementary school in Rio de Janeiro on Thursday and killed 11 children, lining them up against a wall and shooting them in the head at pointblank range as he shouted, “I’m going to kill you all!”

It was the worst school shooting in Brazil — and would have been deadlier if the gunman had not been shot in the legs by a police officer, who said the man then fell down some stairs and shot himself in the head.

Images taken with a cellphone and posted on YouTube showed students fleeing wildly, screaming for help, many with their white and blue school shirts soaked in blood.

At least 13 people, mostly students, were injured, many by gunfire, and taken to local hospitals, said Rio state Health Secretary Sergio Cortes. At least four were in grave condition.

The dead included 10 girls and one boy, plus the gunman, Cortes said.

A woman cries after a school shooting in Rio de Janeiro, on Thursday. Brazilian authorities say a gunman opened fire at an elementary school, killing 11 and wounding 18 before killing himself. ter, Thayane, told her before going into surgery.

Thayane was hit by three bullets and lost feeling in her legs because one hit her spine, said her mother. Crying as she spoke, Machado wondered if her daughter would ever be able to return to school — or walk.

“She’s such an active child,” she said. “That’s the biggest fear I have, her not being able to walk again. But we have to trust in God.” The gunman was identified as Wellington Oliveira, 23, who had once attended the Tasso da Silveira school in a working-class neighborhood in western Rio. No motive was known, but authorities said the shooter left a rambling and mostly incoherent letter at the scene indicating he wanted to kill himself.

The letter also explained in detail how Oliveira wanted his corpse to be cared for — bathed and wrapped in a white sheet that he left in a bag in the first room where he said he would start shooting. The letter also states that the gunman should not be touched by anyone who is “impure” unless they wear gloves.

“If possible I want to be buried next to my mother. A follower of God must visit my grave at least once. He must pray before my grave and ask God to forgive me for what I have done,” read the letter, portions of which were posted on the Globo television network’s website.

Edmar Peixoto, the deputy mayor of western Rio, said the letter also stated the gunman was infected with the AIDS virus.

Gay adults estimated at 1.7% of U.S. population

By Lisa Leff The Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — How many gay men and lesbians are there in the United States?

Gary Gates has an idea but acknowledges pinpointing a solid figure remains an elusive task.

Gates is demographer-inresidence at the Williams Institute on Sexual Orientation Law and Public Policy, a think tank based at the University of California, Los Angeles. For the institute’s 10th anniversa-

Important Product Information XIAFLEX® (Zï a flex) (collagenase clostridium histolyticum) What is the most important information I should know about XIAFLEX? XIAFLEX can cause serious side effects, including: • Tendon or ligament damage.

Receiving an injection of XIAFLEX may cause damage to a tendon or ligament in your hand and cause it to break or weaken. This could require surgery to fix the damaged tendon or ligament.

Call your healthcare provider right away if you have trouble bending your injected finger (towards the wrist) after the swelling goes down or you have problems using your treated hand after your follow-up visit.

• Nerve injury or other serious injury of the hand. Call your healthcare provider if you get numbness, tingling, or increased pain in your treated finger or hand after your injection or after your follow-up visit.

• Allergic Reactions. Allergic reactions can happen in people who take XIAFLEX because it contains foreign proteins.

Call your healthcare provider right away if you have any of these symptoms of an allergic reaction after an injection of XIAFLEX: • hives • swollen face • breathing trouble • chest pain What is XIAFLEX? XIAFLEX is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with Dupuytren’s contracture when a “cord” can be felt.

In people with Dupuytren’s contracture, there is thickening of the skin and tissue in the palm of your hand that is not normal.

Overtime, this thickened tissue can form a cord in your palm. This causes one or more of your fingers to bend toward the palm, so you cannot straighten them.

XIAFLEX should be injected into a cord by a healthcare provider who is skilled in injection procedures of the hand and treating people with Dupuytren’s contracture.

The proteins in XIAFLEX help to “break” the cord of tissue that is causing the finger to be bent.

It is not known if XIAFLEX is safe and effective in children under the age of 18.

ry this week, he took a scholarly stab at answering the question that has been debated, avoided, parsed and proven both insoluble and political since pioneering sex researcher Alfred Kinsey said in the 1940s that 10 percent of the men he surveyed were “predominantly homosexual.”

Gates’ best estimate, derived from five studies that have asked subjects about their sexual orientation, is that the nation has about 4 million adults who identify as being gay or lesbian, representing 1.7 percent of the 18-

What should I tell my healthcare provider before starting treatment with XIAFLEX? XIAFLEX may not be right for you.

Before receiving XIAFLEX, tell your healthcare provider if you: • have had an allergic reaction to a previous XIAFLEX injection.

• have a bleeding problem.

• have any other medical conditions.

• are pregnant or plan to become pregnant. It is not known if XIAFLEX will harm your unborn baby.

• are breastfeeding. It is not known if XIAFLEX passes into your breast-milk. Talk to your healthcare provider about the best way to feed your baby if you receive XIAFLEX. Tell your healthcare provider about all the medicines you take, including prescription and non-prescription medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.

Especially tell your healthcare provider if you use: a blood thinner medicine such as aspirin, clopidogrel (PLAVIX®), prasugrel hydrochloride (EFFIENT®), or warfarin sodium (COUMADIN®).

If you are told to stop taking a blood thinner before your XIAFLEX injection, your healthcare provider should tell you when to restart the blood thinner.

How will I receive XIAFLEX? Your healthcare provider will inject XIAFLEX into the cord that is causing your finger to bend.

After an injection of XIAFLEX, your affected hand will be wrapped with a bandage. You should limit moving and using the treated finger after the injection.

Do not bend or straighten the fingers of the injected hand until your healthcare provider says it is okay. This will help prevent the medicine from leaking out of the cord.

Do not try to straighten the treated finger yourself.

Keep the injected hand elevated until bedtime.

Call your healthcare provider right away if you have: • signs of infection after your injection, such as fever, chills, increased redness, or swelling • numbness or tingling in the treated finger • trouble bending the injected finger after the swelling goes down Return to your healthcare provider’s office as directed on the day after your injection. During this first follow-up visit, if you still have the cord, your

and-over population.

That’s a much lower figure than the 3 to 5 percent that has been the conventional wisdom in the last two decades, based on other isolated studies and attempts to discredit Kinsey.

One reason, according to Gates, is that until recently, few surveys tried to differentiate respondents who identified as gay or lesbian from those who sometimes engaged in homosexual acts or were attracted to people of the same sex. All were lumped into the gay category.

healthcare provider may try to extend the treated finger to “break” the cord and try to straighten your finger.

Your healthcare provider will provide you with a splint to wear on the treated finger. Wear the splint as instructed by your healthcare provider at bedtime to keep your finger straight.

Do finger exercises each day, as instructed by your healthcare provider.

Follow your healthcare provider’s instructions about when you can start doing your normal activities with the injected hand.

What are the possible side effects of XIAFLEX? XIAFLEX can cause serious side effects. See “What is the most important information I should know about XIAFLEX?”.

Common side effects with XIAFLEX include: • swelling of the injection site or the hand • bleeding or bruising at the injection site • pain or tenderness of the injection site or the hand • swelling of the lymphnodes (glands) in the elbow or underarm • itching • breaks in the skin • redness or warmth of the skin • pain in the underarm These are not all of the possible side effects with XIAFLEX. Tell your healthcare provider about any side effect that bothers you or does not go away.

Call your doctor for medical advice about side effects. You may report side effects to the FDA at 1-800-FDA-1088.

General information about XIAFLEX Medicines are sometimes prescribed for purposes other than those listed here. This is a summary of the most important information about XIAFLEX. If you would like more information, talk to your healthcare provider. You can ask your healthcare provider for information about XIAFLEX that is written for health professionals.

The Brew Shop, a store for beer and home-brewing supplies located on Northeast Division Street in Bend, will move into the old Ernesto’s Italian Restaurant site on Northeast Third Street and introduce a restaurant into its business.

Glen Samuel, a co-owner of The Brew Shop, said about two weeks ago all four owners signed a long-term lease for the new location, which will feature three times the shop’s current number of draft beers and serve pizza and barbecued food, among other offerings. The retail portion of the business will be upstairs, and the dining area and pub will be downstairs.

The owners are still waiting on building permits from the city of Bend for the removal of a staircase and the addition of a wheelchair ramp. But Samuel said the company is aiming to open the new location — and close the current one — in June or July.

Ernesto’s has been closed since June 2008.

By Ed Merriman Facebook officials announced plans Thursday to share the innovative design of the company’s new Prineville data center and its systems that will reduce energy consumption by 38 percent.

“Normally, when we call a lot of people over (to the company’s Palo Alto headquarters) we are talking about products,” Facebook co-founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg said during a news conference streamed over the Web. But he and other Facebook officials who spoke from the social networking giant’s main office said sharing the data center de-

signs is about giving something back and contributing to a greener environment.

Zuckerberg said that a team of engineers and others designed the Prineville data center to minimize energy consumption.

That includes everything from a new building design to new designs for how servers and server racks are built, and an air handling system that keeps the building cool in the summer without air conditioning, Zuckerberg said. The data center, which is nearly completed, cost 24 percent less to build than current state-of-the-art data centers, he said.

Making room for a pool at clinic’s new location

Oregon economic index improves Oregon’s economic recovery continued to build momentum in February, according to the University of Oregon Index of Economic Indicators released Thursday. The index rose 0.7 percent, to 91.3, according to the report’s author, UO economist Tim Duy. Three of the index’s seven components improved significantly, while the remaining indicators were essentially unchanged or dipped slightly.

“The UO Index suggests ongoing improvement in economic activity in Oregon, consistent with signals of building momentum in the national economy evident at the end of 2010 and beginning of 2011,” according to Duy’s report. “The recent rise in commodity prices, however, remains a cloud on the outlook.

The gains to date are arguably consistent with improving global activity, which raises the demand for commodities. Ongoing sharp commodity price gains, however, could threaten consumer spending, a pattern evident in recent national personal spending data.”

Demolition began last month on a new west-Bend facility for Falling Waters, a clinic for physical therapy, massage therapy and functional medicine currently located on Scalehouse Loop in Bend’s Old Mill District. In November, a company owned by the clinic’s founder, Dr. Mark Davies, bought property at 55 N.W. Wall St., between Arizona and Colorado avenues, for the new main clinic. SunWest Builders of Redmond is the general contractor. A pool to

be built at the new clinic, whose building will be expanded from 4,700 to 7,300 square feet, will allow patients to swim against a current and feature underwater treadmills. Of the other two buildings on the property, one will be leased out and the other will be razed to make room for more parking. Falling Waters plans to sublease the current space in the Old Mill once the new location is available, probably in September, Davies said.

Portugal’s next step: negotiating

By Raphael Minder and Stephen Castle New York Times News Service

LISBON, Portugal — Portugal’s request for an international bailout puts European leaders in the difficult position of drafting a package of austerity measures and financial aid that will survive the country’s caretaker government.

European officials are hoping to avoid a repeat of the volatility that occurred in Ireland, where a new Irish government is now seeking to reopen its aid deal and alter the terms.

Financial markets had anticipated Portugal’s

need for assistance as its costs of financing had risen to unsustainable levels, and investors generally shrugged off the news on Thursday. The European Central Bank, meanwhile, raised its benchmark interest rate for the first time since 2008, suggesting it was unworried about further economic deterioration and contagion among Europe’s peripheral economies, including Spain.

The latest European call for assistance, which is the third after the rescues of Greece and Ireland last year, comes amid a leadership vacuum in Portugal.

Bend Research gets patent for drug process Bulletin staff report Bend Research has been granted a U.S. patent for its formula improving the bioavailability of low-soluble drugs, including many of the new drugs coming onto the market to treat cancer, heart disease and other illnesses, according to a news release Thursday.

The patented process uses a spray-dried technology to blend low-soluble drugs with polymer additives to improve the bioavailability, a term used to describe the body’s ability to absorb the medication in the stomach and

intestines and deliver it into the bloodstream, according to Rod Ray, president and CEO of Bend Research.

Ray said Bend Research works with pharmaceutical manufacturers to help them bring the medicine compounds they develop to the market in pill forms that are more readily absorbed using Bend Research’s technology. That allows more of the drug to enter the bloodstream, which reduces the percentage of drug that is wasted and flushed out of the body, Ray previously told The Bulletin.

Americans like stuff.

That’s a given. But it turns out that lots and lots of stuff piled onto shelves or stacked in the middle of store aisles can coax a shopper to buy more.

After the recessionary years of shedding inventory and clearing store lanes for a cleaner, appealing look, retailers are reversing course and Inside redesigning • Stores turn in their spaces to surprisingly add clutter. strong sales Dollar Genfor March, eral is raising Page B2 the height of its standard shelves to more than 6 feet; J.C. Penney is turning its empty walls into jewelry and accessory displays; Old Navy is adding lanes lined with items like water bottles, candy and lunchboxes; and Best Buy is testing wheeling in bigger items, like Segways and bicycles, to suck up the space created by thinner TVs and smaller speakers.

Wal-Mart Stores may provide the marquee example of a failed makeover. Two years ago, it remodeled, trying to hang on to Target shoppers who traded down to Wal-Mart during the recession.

Out went the pallets of items like juice boxes or sweatshirts stacked in the centers of aisles.

Merchandise on “end caps,” displays at the ends of aisles, slimmed down. Shelves got shorter, and Wal-Mart whittled the number of items it carried by about 9 percent, so as not to overwhelm shoppers. Customer satisfaction scores soared.

Despite those ratings, WalMart has been encountering one of the longest slides in domestic same-store sales in its history.

“They loved the experience,” William Simon, the chief executive of Wal-Mart’s U.S. division, said at a recent conference.

“They just bought less. And that generally is not a good long-term strategy.”

So after remodeling a large percentage of its stores, WalMart is now re-remodeling them, adding back inventory, plopping stacks of stuff into aisles and stacking shelves with a dizzying array of merchandise.

Retail Continued from B1 As it turns out, the messier and more confusing a store looks, the better the deals it projects.

“Historically, the more a store is packed, the more people think of it as value — just as when you walk into a store and there are fewer things on the floor, you tend to think they’re expensive,” said Paco Underhill, founder and chief executive of Envirosell, who studies shopper behavior.

Retailers are crowding shelves for a couple of strategic reasons.

After years of expansion, many retailers are halting building plans and closing stores as sales and traffic shift to the Web. That means the main way to increase revenue is by selling more stuff at the existing stores.

“All the retailers are stuck with less traffic going to the stores, and leases that are 15 to 20 years long,” said Fiona Dias, executive vice president of strategy and marketing at GSI Commerce, which provides e-commerce technology for retailers like Toys R Us. “What do you do with all the extra space that you’re paying for?”

Also, same-store sales are getting stronger, so retailers are adding back merchandise.

At Wal-Mart, for instance, inventory at the end of January was 11 percent higher than a year earlier.

Packing more in Best Buy, which had big stores to begin with, recently was faced with “bowling alleys’ worth of space because the product has all shrunk or gone digital,” Dias said, noting the switchover to music sold on MP3s rather than racks and racks of CDs. Old Navy has added “fast lanes,” where shoppers can pick up Nantucket Nectars, toys and other impulse items.

About 100 stores now have the lanes, and about 200 more are being added this year. It is meant to maximize sales per square foot around the checkout area, a spokeswoman, Louise Callagy, said in an email, especially important as many Old Navys have been or will be remodeled into smaller spaces.

J.C. Penney is also trying to maximize its existing spaces.

“One of the ways to improve the productivity is to get more things out on the floor and to show the product in a better way,” said Jan Hodges, senior vice president and general merchandise manager of women’s accessories at J.C. Penney. The retailer has turned empty back walls into

Bend-based GlasWeld has appointed GlasWeld Australia Pty. Ltd. as its exclusive distributor for GlasWeld products in Australia.

The selective water withdrawal tower, part of the Pelton Round Butte hydroelectric project, a 273-foot-tall floating fish collection facility and underwater tower at Lake Billy Chinook, has won top awards from the American Council of Engineering Companies and the National Hydropower Association. American Council of Engineering Companies announced that Portland Gen-

eral Electric, The Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs and their engineer of record on the project, CH2M Hill, were selected for the Grand Award, which recognizes firms for projects that demonstrate a high degree of innovation, achievement and value. National Hydropower Association honored the project with its Outstanding Stewards of American Waters Award, which recognizes significant, innovative projects that serve as models for the hydro industry.

A third award earned this year is from the Associated General Contractors of America, which gave the tower project a 2011 Build America Award for best new environmental construction. The award was accepted

by Barnard Construction Company Inc., which was the general contractor for the project. For more information, visit www .deschutespassage.com.

“We think of them more like virtual speed bumps — they don’t really impede or slow down the shopping in a physical way, but highlight in a consumer-friendly way items that we know our customers are interested in, or items that go together,” she said.

“You’ve got just a few seconds to capture your customers’ attention when they come into the store.”

March retail sales surprisingly strong NEW YORK — The economic recovery keeps defying expectations and getting stronger. Robust consumer spending in March is the latest sign that the rebound is entering a self-reinforcing cycle of improvement.

Shoppers shrugged off worries about higher gas prices and treated themselves at the mall last month. Retailers from Costco to Victoria’s Secret reported surprisingly good sales Thursday, and analysts said people would have spent even more but for the late Easter.

Consumer spending, which makes up 70 percent of the economy, is critical to the recovery. The more shoppers spend, the more companies feel good about ramping up production, which means eventually adding workers, who spend more money.

Customer perception

accessory displays, added coordinating jewelry and handbags to tables of clothes, and later this year will switch from flat tables to ones with pegs that can carry loads of hanging socks or underwear.

At Dollar General, the tops of the shelves have been raised to a standard 78 inches. Some were as short as 62 inches.

“Think of the shelf heights as air rights, if you will — it’s easier to raise the shelf height than expand the footprint” of the store, said a spokeswoman, Mary Winn Gordon.

Raising the shelf height, she said, raised sales per square foot to about $201 in 2010 from $165 in 2007.

Dollar General is now adding what Gordon called “speed bumps,” merchandise in the aisles or at the entrance, or stacks of related items — like piles of bananas alongside boxes of vanilla wafers.

It is not just about what customers want but how they perceive a store.

“Messiness, or pallets in the middle of an aisle, are also a cue for value,” said Ben DiSanti, senior vice president of planning and perspectives for TPN, a retail marketing consultant.

“There are a lot of cues that the shopper picks up on in stores.”

A streamlined, simplified store, he added, “begins to alter that shopper’s perception of, ‘Does Wal-Mart have the best prices?’”

“Whether they know it to be more of a discounter or not, if shoppers walk into a less organized environment, I’d bet their first impression is going to be, ‘OK, you’re going to find lower prices here,’” DiSanti said.

Still, not all price-conscious retailers are crazy for clutter.

Family Dollar has been taking items out of the middle of aisles, hanging them or stocking them on shelves instead.

“Most of our customers, regardless of their walk of life, want a pleasant experience,” said Mtu Pugh, vice president of format and space management.

And DiSanti suggested that an untidy ambiance could be counterproductive.

“The clutter doesn’t help the shopping experience,” DiSanti said. “If I have the choice, I will always choose a cleaner environment.”

Then again, in that pleasant atmosphere, a shopper might just stick to her list and not get distracted by Easter decorations toppling from a shelf, or the twofor-one cereal special she has to maneuver her cart around.

“If you have the temptations there, it will lead to additional sales,” DiSanti said.

A N Why auto repair bulletins aren’t on regulators’ websites

By Christopher Jensen New York Times News Service

For years, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has declined to post on its website reports from automakers about problems with their cars and about specialized warranty extensions that could save consumers large sums on repairs.

The reason: The agency says automakers have warned it that the reports, called technical service bulletins, are copyrighted.

The technical service bulletins are sent to dealers by automakers and provide information on unusual problems with vehicles they have produced — most of them in the hands of customers — and how to make repairs.

Special service campaigns are a form of technical service bulletin that often tell dealers of warranty extensions for particular repairs.

“Many manufacturers have asserted that technical service bulletin information is copyrighted and will not waive those copyrights,” Karen Aldana, an agency spokeswoman, wrote in an e-mail. “NHTSA has a legal obligation to abide by copyright law.”

The agency declined to provide copies of the automakers’ requests or to identify the companies.

But several leading automakers said that either they did not copyright their bulletins or that they would not object to publication by the agency. Those automakers are BMW, Chrysler, General Motors, Honda, Hyundai, Nissan, Subaru and Volvo.

A Toyota spokesman, Brian Lyons, would not respond directly to a question about whether Toyota objected to publication of the service bulletins.

In an e-mail, Lyons wrote: “We are open to discussing it with NHTSA. We do believe we have the right to protect our intellectual property.”

“Many manufacturers have asserted that technical service bulletin information is copyrighted and will not waive those copyrights. NHTSA has a legal obligation to abide by copyright law.”

— Karen Aldana, spokeswoman, National Highway Traffic Safety Administration

A Ford spokesman, Wesley Sherwood, said his company’s position was that the full bulletins should not be published because they showed how to make repairs that “should not be performed by do-it-yourselfers.” Sherwood did not respond to a question about why, if Ford is concerned about owners making their own repairs, it allows consumers to buy the bulletins from commercial firms.

Catering to industry?

Each year automakers produce thousands of technical service bulletins, which, aside from going to dealers, are obtained by commercial services like Alldata, which sell the information to repair shops and even individuals. Service bulletins compiled

by Alldata are frequently published on these pages as a reader service.

A spokesman for MercedesBenz declined to answer questions about its policy.

There is a basis for the traffic safety agency’s concern about lawsuits, said Susan Richey, the associate dean and a professor at the University of New Hampshire School of Law in Concord.

“The U.S. government can be

charged with copyright infringement,” she said in an interview.

But the agency could defend itself by saying it was a fair use of the material because of the benefit to consumers, she said.

Clarence Ditlow, executive director of the Center for Auto Safety, a consumer advocacy group in Washington, said the highway safety administration should allow the material to be published. Failing to do so, he said, suggests that the agency was more concerned about catering to the industry than about helping consumers.

Automakers can save money if owners don’t know about service campaigns that include extended warranties, he said.

“Most service campaigns are ones intended to prevent a major failure,” Ditlow added. “Consumers can avoid a costly failure by doing a free repair now.”

The safety agency apparently feels the bulletins have some value to consumers because it posts some summaries on its website. But the summaries are only a few sentences long and often lack crucial information, like noting free repairs when they are available.

One example is a Toyota service campaign announced last year for a possible oil-hose leak on about 716,000 vehicles, including some 2007-10 Camrys with V-6 engines. The complete bulletin said Toyota would pay for the repairs until March 31, 2013. The summary listed by the agency, however, does not mention the extended warranty.

Some automakers, including Toyota in this case, say they send owners notices of extended warranties. But Ditlow said there was no guarantee that people who bought a used vehicle would receive the information.

If the agency posted the full bulletins, he said, consumers could easily check without having to pay a commercial firm for the information.

Quieting clicks, grinds and rattles Chevrolet Camaros with clanking torque converters and Chrysler minivans with noisy wheel bearings are among the topics covered in automakers’ recent technical service bulletins.

The service bulletins, compiled by alldatapro.com, offer car companies’ insights into some recurring problems with various models. The bulletins, known as TSBs, are not recalls; they are information sheets provided by manufacturers to dealers’ service departments and mechanics. Unless otherwise noted, the carmakers do not offer payment assistance for the repairs beyond normal warranty coverage.

Alldata.com sells a more comprehensive version of the bulletins to consumers. Here are some recent examples:

CHEVROLET The bolts that fasten the automatic transmission torque converter of some 2011 Camaros may need to be replaced. In TSB 10432 issued Jan. 3, General Motors said a campaign to replace the bolts applied to models with the 6.2-liter V-8 engine. The factory-installed bolts may not be properly sized to secure the torque converter, leading to a clanking sound.

CHRYSLER Some 2008 minivans may need new front wheel bearings. In TSB K19 issued Dec. 22, Chrysler said the bearings on Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans can develop a grinding noise.

Replacing both front hub and bearing assemblies should restore silence.

Also, some minivans may develop a squeak or grinding noise at the pillar between the front and sliding doors.

In TSB 23-001-11 issued Jan. 7, Chrysler said the noise, in 2008-10 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan models, can occur when driving or when opening the

front or sliding doors. Lubricating the doors should stop the squeak.

DODGE Some Dakota pickups may need new software to assure proper operation of their side-impact air bags. According to TSB K03, issued Jan. 5, the air bags in some trucks from the 200507 model years may not deploy in a side-impact collision; the remedy is to reprogram the computer module that controls the air bags. Owners should receive a letter notifying them of this service campaign.

FORD Some 2-wheel-drive F-250 Super Duty trucks may need new rear springs. In TSB 10B21 issued Jan. 7, Ford said incorrect springs might have been installed in some 2011 models, causing the pickups to feel unstable when pulling trailers. Ford will offer free replacement springs on affected vehicles through Jan. 31, 2012. Owners should receive a letter notifying them of this campaign.

GENERAL MOTORS Some 2011 Chevrolet Equinox and GMC Terrain crossovers may have a dashboard electrical problem causing the battery to drain. In TSB 11004 issued Jan. 10, GM said backlighting in the instrument panel might illuminate even after the vehicle is shut off. Reprogramming the module that controls the lighting, and charging the battery, should solve the issue.

Also, some 2008-09 Cadillac CTS and 2009 Chevrolet Cobalt and Pontiac G5 models may develop a problem with their ignition locks.

In TSB 10256 issued Dec. 14, GM said the key might get stuck in the ignition switch, and the vehicle might not shut off if it is running. Replacing the ignition lock cylinder should free things up.

HONDA Civic owners may be hearing unusual

noises from their car’s engine. In TSB 06-060 issued Dec. 24, Honda said some 2006-07 Civics might have a rattling noise from the right front of the vehicle, caused by a defective right-side engine mount. Replacing the engine mount should stop the racket.

MAZDA The rear window glass in some 201011 Tribute SUVs may break easily. In TSB 0905210 issued Dec. 2, Mazda said the glass was most susceptible to breaking in cold weather. Replacing the window with a revised design that has a through-bolt striker should prevent the breakage from recurring.

NISSAN Some 2007-09 Sentras may have a problem with their fuel filler tubes.

In TSB NTB09-069a issued Dec. 10, Nissan said the grommet that holds the top of the fuel filler tube in place might be detached. Replacing the filler tube and filler shield, and installing a new clip on the shield, should solve any problems.

SUBARU Owners of some 2010-11 models may complain of high oil consumption or see smoke coming from the exhaust.

In TSB 02-115-11 issued Jan. 20, Subaru said the problem in 2010 Foresters and 2011 Legacy, Outback and Impreza models probably stems from faulty machining of the holes for the intake-valve guides. The cure requires replacement of the cylinder head.

VOLVO In some 2008-09 XC90 models, a click may be heard from the steering column when making a turn. In TSB TJ19965 issued Dec. 15, Volvo said the noise might be from an improperly built steering column. To restore peace and quiet, the column must be replaced.

Disney starts work on $4.4B Shanghai park New York Times News Service SHANGHAI — The Walt Disney Co. placed a huge bet on China’s shifting approach to Westernized entertainment as it broke ground here today on a $4.4 billion theme park — even if it is one without classic American features like a Main Street.

Disney hopes the Shanghai Disney Resort will be as transformative for the company as the establishment of Walt Disney World in Orlando, Fla., was in the 1970s. It wants to create

Facebook Continued from B1 By sharing details of its innovative data center design through what the company is calling its Open Compute Project, Facebook officials said their goal is to help reduce energy usage at data centers worldwide.

With more than 500 million users around the world and more joining daily, Facebook also recently began building another data center in North Carolina patterned after the Prineville facility, according to Tom Furlong, Facebook director of site operations.

In response to questions during a telephone press conference following the announcement, Furlong said he was responsible for selecting the locations for Facebook’s new data centers, including the one in Prineville that has come under fire from Greenpeace because some of the power for the center comes from the Boardman coal-fired power plant operated by PacificCorp.

The Greenpeace page on Facebook includes a posting that says, “It’s time for Facebook to unfriend coal and help lead the clean energy revolution,” and another Greenpeace post saying, “Let’s get Facebook to run on clean, safe renewable energy.”

However, Jay Park, a Facebook engineer who served as emcee for Thursday’s announcement, said rather than focus on a particular source of energy, Facebook’s priority was to choose the best site based on available power, network connectivity and the

an engine that will drive demand among China’s 1.3 billion residents for other products, like Pixar films and princess dolls.

Like many global companies, Disney is putting its faith in the rise of the Chinese consumer, and at the same time it is counting on Shanghai’s specific ambitions to become a world-class city.

Then, too, for many Chinese this will be their introduction to Disney. China is the only major country that does not have a Disney Channel, which is the com-

pany’s typical way of building its brand and stoking demand for Disney experiences and products.

The Shanghai resort’s first phase — one of the largest foreign investments in China ever — will include a 225-acre Magic Kingdom-style park with a castle surrounded by themed areas. The park component alone will cost $3.7 billion. There will also be two hotels, a lake and a shopping district. Disney hopes to have the complex open by the end of 2015, an ambitious timeline.

most ideal climate to minimize energy usage.

“Prineville met all three of those requirements,” Park said.

Facebook developed” and is releasing to the public through the Open Compute Project, Frankowski said.

Amir Michael, leader of the Facebook hardware design team, said some of the energy efficiencies came from removing unnecessary plastic components and redesigning the chassis that hold the racks of servers, and the servers themselves to allow greater air flow through the server racks.

“The efficiency of the motherboard is 94.5 percent, which is unheard of,” Michael said.

“We did all the work. We didn’t do it just for ourselves.

We did it for the community as a whole,” Michael said.

He said the design process focused on building the most efficient components, not on what looked pretty.

Jonathan Heiliger, vice president of technical operations at Facebook, said in the big picture of energy efficiency, rather than worry about whether the source of energy is coal, natural gas or wind, the best way of improving carbon emissions and improving the environment is to reduce energy consumption.

“Tell us where we screwed up. Tell us why we made a bad decision, and we will correct it,” Heiliger said, adding that by sharing the technology, Facebook also is opening its designs to public scrutiny and review by the scientific community to suggest further improvements.

For the community Park came up with the idea of using a single transformer to deliver power directly to servers and motherboards, thereby reducing the power loss between the substation and servers to 2 percent, which he said is a considerable savings compared with the standard 11 to 17 percent loss when multiple transformers are used.

“The idea came to me in the middle of the night,” Park said, adding that he didn’t have any paper to diagram his idea for using a single transformer, so he drew it on a napkin.

Other energy-saving elements designed into the Prineville center included an air exchange cooling system that draws in cool outside air, removes the moisture and circulates the cool air throughout the building.

That, along with other design changes, eliminated the need for large air conditioning systems standard in data centers built to this point, Park said.

“We are not selling anything today, but we do hope to benefit from this primarily in the area of accelerating innovation,” said Frank Frankowski, Facebook’s director of hardware design.

“That’s the reason we are doing it, to drive efficiency for ourselves and then to benefit others.

“Everything we are publicizing today are specifications

THE BULLETIN • Friday, April 8, 2011 B5

Portugal Continued from B1 The Socialist prime minister who requested the bailout, Jose Socrates, is leading a caretaker government until the general election on June 5. He resigned last month after center-right opposition lawmakers, led by the Social Democratic Party, rejected his austerity package.

Although opposition leaders agree on the need for a bailout, reaching consensus will not be easy. Tough austerity measures similar to those recently rejected will almost certainly be demanded by European lenders and, most likely, the International Monetary Fund.

Portugal is already struggling with record unemployment and an economy that is expected to contract 1.3 percent this year, according to its central bank.

“From the point of view of being able to negotiate good terms for the Portuguese economy and display a firm commitment that might make the European Commission and the IMF less demanding, this could not have happened at a worse time,” said Pedro Magalhaes, a professor of politics at the University of Lisbon.

Lisbon’s request for aid also puts additional pressure on other ailing European economies, in particular Spain, which has undertaken austerity measures, a pension overhaul and a cleanup of its banking sector to stay out of danger. Any rescue request from Spain — with an economy larger than that of Greece, Ireland and Portugal combined — could put the European common currency project at risk.

On Thursday, Spain held a successful bond auction, raising 4.1 billion euros ($5.8 billion) at a yield that was little changed from three months ago. Separately, France sold 9.49 billion euros in bonds Thursday, drawing strong demand.

The Spanish sale “confirms that there are no signs of a contagion spreading to Spain at

“From the point of view of being able to negotiate good terms for the Portuguese economy and display a firm commitment that might make the European Commission and the IMF less demanding, this could not have happened at a worse time.”

— Pedro Magalhaes, professor of politics at the University of Lisbon present,” said Chiara Cremonesi, a fixed-income strategist in London for UniCredit. “Spain continues to be perceived by investors as part of the safer periphery countries group.”

Working out details In Lisbon, politicians from both sides are expected to meet in the coming days to work out details of their bailout package request. One estimate by a European official put Portugal’s needs at approximately 75 billion euros, but some analysts have suggested that the amount could be as much as 110 billion euros.

Last year, Greece secured a rescue package worth 110 billion euros. Ireland received 85 billion euros.

The cabinet minister in the caretaker government, Pedro Silva Pereira, confirmed the formal rescue request, but would not comment on the amount of aid requested, saying the next steps would be defined by the European Commission.

Jean-Claude Trichet, president of the European Central Bank, said the bank had “encouraged Portuguese authorities to ask for support.”

If the pattern of previous bailouts is repeated, it could take several weeks for a team of Brussels officials to discuss

the conditions of a bailout with Lisbon, which will ultimately need the approval of European finance ministers.

The negotiations will occur in the midst of an election campaign that will probably be dominated by the question of who is to blame for Portugal’s predicament. The Social Democratic leader, Pedro Passos Coelho, supported the decision to seek outside help, but he and Socrates are blaming each other for putting Portugal in a desperate situation.

“What the election campaign is now about is who should assume the responsibility for inviting international creditors into Portugal,” said Diogo Ortigao Ramos, a partner at the law firm Cuatrecasas, Goncalves Pereira.

Antonio Nogueira Leite, an economic adviser to the Social Democratic Party and a professor at the Nova School of Economics and Business in Lisbon, said, “We have to learn from the mistakes in Greece and Ireland and be able to argue for a different treatment, but obviously our room to maneuver has been diminished because we have postponed our call for help for much longer than we should have.”

Portugal’s muddled political situation also raises “problems of legal uncertainty,” notably over whether a dissolved Parliament could approve a rescue agreement, Magalhaes, the politics professor, said. A new government is unlikely to take office before the end of June, with Portugal’s most recent opinion polls suggesting the June vote could result in a hung Parliament.

Short-term needs must also be resolved. Portugal faces a bond redemption of 4.3 billion euros on April 15.

Some officials suspect Portugal might need to seek bilateral loans from other countries to tide it over. Others say the announcement of the aid request on Wednesday might drive down the cost of short-term borrowing for Portugal and avert a problem.

SMALL BUSINESSES

Strategies for getting paid in a timely fashion

By Hannah Seligson New York Times News Service

Small-business owners know it is cash flow or die. While the recession officially ended in June 2009, many companies are still reeling. Credit can be hard to come by, and profits have not completely bounced back. On top of that, many customers are taking longer than ever to pay their bills.

Exhibit A is Cisco Systems, one of the largest technology companies in the world, which announced last year that it would wait a full 60 days to pay its smallbusiness suppliers — mostly because it had found that that was what other big companies were doing.

So how does a small business get paid in a tough economy without hiring a collections agency or alienating its clients? Better yet, how does it avoid ending up with a stack of unpaid invoices in the first place?

Judging from the experiences of the small-business owners interviewed for this guide, it is part art and part science.

Do your due diligence It used to be that credit reports were expensive and only for big companies with large budgets.

Not anymore.

Ron Phelps, commercial credit manager at Boulevard Tire Center, a tire distributor with 26 locations in Florida, pays $99 a month for Pulse, a service offered through Cortera, an online business credit reporting system that keeps tabs on his clients. Last December, Cortera’s monitoring system noted that there was a large federal tax lien on one of Phelps’ clients, a small trucking company. He cut off the company’s credit line.

“That very same day,” he said, “we decided just to make them a cash customer, because we were concerned about their ability to pay.”

Cortera also offers a free service that collects and analyzes payment histories on more than 20 million businesses. Think of it as Yelp for business credit — instead of reviewing restaurants and stores, its community gives feedback on how promptly a company pays.

Diane Nicosia, a designer and project manager for D.E. Nicosia & Associates in New Rochelle, N.Y., is in charge of the company budget and makes sure vendors, architects and engineers get paid. “What I’ve learned is that you have to negotiate these days.” company from walking.

“Most people don’t think to challenge the payment schedule,” she said, “but we have to step up as small-business owners and say, ‘This is my living.’”

What Nicosia learned through this negotiation process, which she said was very amicable, was that there are often options. “All they have to do is push a little button that says pay in 10, 30 or 60 days, and that gets your invoice in a queue, so I got my vendor paid faster by working with the right people in the company.”

Make sure your paperwork is right Is your invoice perfect? Did you fill out all the forms (even the ones you may not know about)?

Companies do not need much of an excuse, if any, to delay your invoice. So make sure not one piece of information is missing.

Do you know whether the invoice needs a purchase order number? Not having this number can leave invoices lingering in accounts-payable purgatory, and it is unlikely that accounts payable will call to tell you.

Is your invoice formatted correctly? Some companies accept invoices only in the form of a PDF. If you are a new vendor, did you fill out a new vendor form? Many companies require these forms to process a first-time payment (but do not always make that known).

Set your terms (with a smile)

Know when to lose a client

Diane Nicosia manages and coordinates major construction and design projects through her company, D.E. Nicosia & Associates, which is based in New Rochelle, N.Y. “I’m in charge of the budget and have to make sure vendors, architects and engineers get paid,” Nicosia said. “What I’ve learned is that you have to negotiate these days.”

On a recent project involving 45,000 square feet of office space in a Midtown Manhattan office tower, a construction company said it would back out of the deal after it found that it would take 90 days to get paid

by Nicosia’s client, a Fortune 100 financial services and manufacturing firm. Nicosia met with her client’s senior management and found the payment timetable was not set in stone; there was room to broker a schedule that could keep the construction

If customers do fall behind, when do you decide to cut them off? And what do you do if it is a customer you think you cannot afford to lose?

At Boulevard Tire, delinquent accounts are placed in one of two buckets — 30 days overdue and 60 days overdue.

“We look at those lists long and hard and ask ourselves,” Phelps said, “is this someone I want to immediately put on credit hold?

Or is there something salvageable here? Are they a first-time offender?”

There are, he said, no hard and fast rules. “It’s all about the dynamics,” he said. “For example, if we have a customer who is in dire straits, and they appear to be making an effort to pay, we might continue working with them.”

Still, the economics may ultimately dictate the decision.

As Phelps pointed out, if your

B B U.S. seeks names of HSBC tax evaders The Justice Department asked a federal court Thursday for permission to force HSBC, the London-based bank, to turn over the names of wealthy U.S. clients suspected of evading taxes through offshore accounts at its affiliate in India.

The request, from the civil tax division of the Justice Department, is part of a widening investigation into private offshore services that helped scores of wealthy U.S. clients avoid income taxes. The suit is an indication that federal authorities are broadening their scrutiny to include countries and regions beyond Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Singapore and the Caribbean. India is not usually thought of as a tax haven.

Federal authorities filed a similar request on UBS, the Swiss banking giant, in 2008.

The government dropped the lawsuit last August after the

Swiss government agreed to turn over the names of 4,450 UBS U.S. clients as part of a broad investigation of the bank’s offshore private banking services.

AT&T, Verizon forced to open networks WASHINGTON — AT&T Inc. and Verizon Wireless must let smaller competitors use their networks for mobile Internet service under rules approved Thursday by a divided Federal Communications Commission.

The agency voted 3-2 with Democrats approving and Republicans dissenting to require large wireless carriers to strike commercial agreements with smaller carriers. Such agreements are voluntary now.

The rule extends to data traffic and the network-sharing arrangements that already are mandatory for voice calls.

The measure was opposed by Verizon, the largest U.S. wireless provider, and Dallas-based

AT&T, which would vault to No. 1 if it completes its proposed $39 billion purchase of Deutsche Telekom’s T-Mobile USA Inc.

Jobless claims decline slightly WASHINGTON — The number of people who applied for unemployment benefits fell slightly last week, indicating that the U.S. jobs market continues to gradually improve.

New applications for state unemployment benefits dropped by 10,000 to a seasonally adjusted 382,000 in the week ended April 2, the Labor Department said Thursday. Claims for the prior week were revised up by 4,000 to 392,000.

The average of new claims over the past four weeks, meanwhile, declined by 5,750 to 389,500. The four-week average is considered more accurate a barometer of employment trends because it lessens weekto-week volatility in the data.

— From wire reports

company has a 10 percent profit margin and you lose $10,000 on an account, that’s an additional $100,000 in revenue that your company has to find.

Don’t rely on the post office To avoid having someone in the accounting department tell you “the check is in the mail,” push for direct deposit or electronic transfer. That way, you can get paid exactly on the 45th or 60th day. There are also services available from banks that will allow checks to be faxed and scanned, with the money deposited into your account the same day.

Consider accepting credit cards or PayPal. Yes, there is a fee, depending on which card or service you use, but the cash comes almost instantly.

Let them know it’s important Rachel Lawrence oversees invoicing and bill collection at Bright Power, an energy-efficiency company based in Manhattan.

She was trying to collect from a property management firm that was 30 days late on a $25,000 invoice.

“They kept giving me this excuse that they had changed accounting systems, which I think can be a delay tactic,” she said. “It got to the point where I really had to make it clear that I wanted payment, so I offered to physically pick up the check.”

Lawrence gave the property management company dates and times she would be available to make the 30-minute trip to its office in Midtown Manhattan. The firm agreed to have the check ready. “When you say this is important enough to me that I will go out of my way,” she said, “I think people respond.”

Offer a discount Phelps said he does not like to reward clients for not paying, but that in certain cases extending a discount on the condition that the debt be paid immediately in cash or a cashier’s check can make the money appear.

“We’d rather have something than nothing, and save ourselves the time and effort of going to court,” he said, “but we probably wouldn’t enter into a credit relationship with that company in the future.”

Tribal cops bill heads to Senate Opponents worry law would create ‘super’ policing agencies

By Lauren Dake The Bulletin

SALEM — Tribal police officers can pursue and arrest a suspect even if the person leaves the tribe’s reservation. But whether they can enforce state law off the reservation — when not involved in a hot-pursuit situa-

tion — will likely be up to lawmakers to decide.

On Thursday, members of the Senate Judiciary Committee passed Senate Bill 412 out of committee, which means the bill will go to the Senate floor for a vote. About a week ago, the Oregon Supreme Court over-

ruled an earlier court decision and gave tribal officers the ability to go after offenders off tribal lands if the pursuit started on the reservation.

But this bill would give tribal officers the same authority state officers have: If a tribal police officer observes a crime off the reservation,

he could make an arrest.

Proponents have said they don’t want tribal police officers to have to ignore a crime. If, for example, a Warm Springs Police officer sees a possible drunken driver leaving the Rainbow Market, which is just off the reservation, heading toward Madras, that officer should have the authority to pull the person over.

IN THE LEGISLATURE • Highlights of Senate Bill 412, Page C5

By Hillary Borrud The Bulletin

Health insurance was the main topic at a Thursday night bargaining session between Deschutes County managers and representatives of the largest county employees union.

County managers, who presented their proposal to the union on many contract items Thursday, said employees need to pay more for health insurance and have greater incentives to keep costs down, so the county’s self-insured plan will not go bankrupt.

Union representatives said the county’s proposal for employees to pay up to 20 percent of insurance costs would be an unfair burden, and could force the lowest-paid county employees to seek food stamps.

Members of the union knew ahead of time that the county planned to ask employees to pay a larger share of their health insurance costs.

Yaju Dharmarajah, the council representative for the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees Council 75, or AFSCME, said union members had been e-mailing him with concerns.

“Every e-mail I’ve gotten is (saying), ‘no way I’m going to agree to that, we’d be bankrupt,’” Dharmarajah said.

At the same time, Dharmarajah said AFSCME’s members are open to other changes in their health insurance premiums. AFSCME represents approximately 350 employees in most county departments.

AFSCME’s members knew about the county’s plan because managers proposed the same idea on Monday during a bargaining session with the union that represents parole and probation officers.

“Do not kiss chicks or share food or drink with them.”

That’s what Deschutes County Public Health Services is telling people in order to prevent salmonella.

A child in Deschutes County was diagnosed with salmonella, and officials were notified of it Wednesday. The case was linked to baby chickens.

Of the 18 cases of salmonella last year, eight of them were between March and May, said Heather Kaisner, public health educator with Deschutes County.

Many chicks carry salmonella and can pass it through their feces to humans.

Diarrhea, fever and abdominal cramps are symptoms of mild salmonella.

It can be more serious for infants and others with weak immune systems.

In rare cases when the infection spreads to the blood stream, it can be fatal.

“People under age 5 really shouldn’t be handling them,” said Kaisner. “There are kids out there who like to kiss chicks.”

Sandy Cloud, co-owner of Terra Sono Farms, kept a container of antibacterial gel next to where she kept the chicks she was raising last year.

At Country Feed & Pet Supply in Bend, people aren’t allowed to touch the chicks unless they’re buying them, said owner Nancy Hermanns.

Hermanns said children often receive baby chickens as gifts around Easter. “Ten years ago, it was a novelty, and now most of what I see them being used for is egg production.”

Hermanns advises that owners of baby chickens keep the cage clean and change the cage bedding daily.

PRECISION INSTRUMENTS OSU-CASCADES

Conger’s bill would help fund expansion

By Lauren Dake and Nick Budnick The Bulletin

SALEM — The Oregon State University-Cascades Campus may have the tools it needs to purchase a new building for graduate programs if a local lawmaker’s bill can win approval.

Rep. Jason Conger, R-Bend, said his bill, House Bill 3627, would authorize the state to issue $1.95 million in bond money for the building, borrowed against future state lottery revenue.

The building would also be funded by $1 million from OSUCascades and an $800,000 private donor who is not being named at this time.

The idea is to move Cascades’ graduate programs in counseling and teaching to an office building at the corner of Columbia Street and Colorado Avenue.

Bend Research, a firm specializing in pharmaceutical and defense industry research, would share the space.

OSU-Cascades Vice President Becky Johnson said the campus already plans to lease the building, but the bill would allow school officials to purchase it instead, to save money.

Conger said he is optimistic that the bill will get funded, thanks to what he called “a remarkable series of events.”

• Wash hands after handling chicks and equipment.

• Keep chicks penned in outside buildings. Wash hands after coming into contact with any area where chicks are kept.

• Do not eat, drink or smoke while handling chicks.

• Children under 5 should avoid contact with chicks. Children should be supervised when they are handling chicks to ensure they do not place their hands, or objects that a chick has contacted, in their mouths.

Chicks should not be kept in child care centers.

• Immune-compromised people should avoid contact with chicks.

• Follow instructions from your veterinarian. Healthy chicks living in proper environments are less likely to shed salmonella bacteria.

CALIFORNIA PRISONS

A smaller, still crowded system Facilities letting inmates walk free in face of state cuts, federal heat

By John Gramlich Stateline.org

VACAVILLE, Calif. — Eighteen months ago, the gymnasium at the state prison here was not a gymnasium at all. It was a makeshift dormitory, housing 250 felons in triple bunk beds stretching from one end of the concrete floor to the other. Correctional officers recall a tense, dangerous environment. Violent offenders, many of them sentenced to decades behind bars for assault, murder and other serious crimes, slept within inches of one another. Tempers rose often, especially during the sweltering summertime months.

Fights were common.

Today, the gymnasium at the California State Prison at Solano houses no one. Triple-bunking has ended. Instead, this medium-security prison is shedding inmates, with a decline of more than 1,000 offenders over the last year and a half.

High annual cost The same phenomenon is happening at many of California’s 33 state prisons. As the financially battered state enacts huge budget cuts, it has no choice but to downsize its sprawling correctional system, which now consumes 10 percent of the state budget and swallows more taxpayer dollars than higher education — a fact that, if public opinion surveys are accurate, Californians abhor. A single prison bed costs taxpayers $44,500 a year.

The federal courts have dialed up the pressure, putting state officials on notice that severe overcrowding — a fact of life in California prisons for years — is no longer acceptable. Two years ago, a panel of three federal judges found that overcrowding had cre-

ON THIS DATE In 1861, Elisha Otis, inventor of the first elevator safety brake, died in Yonkers, N.Y., at age 49.

In 1913, the 17th Amendment to the Constitution, providing for direct popular election of United States senators (as opposed to appointment by state legislatures), was ratified.

In 1935, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Emergency Relief Appropriations Act, which provided money for programs such as the Works Progress Administration.

In 1961, a suspected bomb exploded aboard the passenger liner MV Dara in the Persian Gulf, causing it to sink; 238 of the 819 people aboard were killed.

In 1970, the Senate rejected President Richard Nixon’s nomination of G. Harold Carswell to the U.S. Supreme Court.

In 1974, Hank Aaron of the Atlanta Braves hit his 715th career home run in a game against the Los Angeles Dodgers, breaking Babe Ruth’s record.

In 1994, Kurt Cobain, singer and guitarist for the grunge band Nirvana, was found dead in Seat-

THOUGHT FOR TODAY “Computers are useless. They can only give you answers.� — Pablo Picasso, Spanish artist

ated unconstitutionally inhumane conditions, ordering the state to reduce its inmate population by more than 40,000 — a staggering figure that eclipses the entire prisoner total of all but nine states.

Now, the U.S. Supreme Court is about to weigh in on the overcrowding problem by deciding whether to uphold, strike down or modify that order. Oral arguments in the case, Schwarzenegger v. Plata, made clear that the court’s decision could break along familiar ideological lines.

Public safety Liberal justices pressed California’s lawyer about conditions so bad they once resulted in preventable deaths every week.

Conservatives countered that while prison conditions might be deplorable, any order to reduce the population by thousands of inmates — on top of what has already been done — will endanger California residents. “If this order goes into effect, we will see,� Justice Samuel Alito said from the bench during the arguments, suggesting that the public would be safer with these inmates behind bars. “We will see, and the people of California will see.�

California’s prison downsizing efforts began before the Supreme Court’s involvement. In 2006, when the state’s inmate population reached an all-time high of more than 172,000, then-Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger declared an overcrowding emergency, warning that inmates and guards alike faced “extreme peril.�

About 10,000 inmates were promptly shipped to private prisons in Arizona, Mississippi and Oklahoma. More recently, thousands of others had their release dates moved up as state lawmakers, usually known for enhancing criminal penalties, were forced to change course. Through an expansion of so-called “good-time credits,� they authorized many inmates to leave prison ahead of schedule while reducing parole supervision for others, hoping to reduce the number sent back for relatively minor technical viola-

tions. Today, California’s in-state inmate population is down to 152,000.

Gov. Jerry Brown, who took office in January, hopes to keep going. Brown wants to shift tens of thousands of low-level state inmates to county jails, even though many of those jails themselves are at capacity. If enacted, Brown’s plan could reduce the state prison population by another 38,000 within four years, according to a nonpartisan legislative estimate.

It also may force counties to release thousands of offenders from their jails to make room for the state transfers.

In the yards and dormitories at state prisons like Solano, the word has gotten out.

Inmates aware Inmates know the state is under serious budget and court constraints, and many of them are counting on being freed ahead of schedule, says Randy Carter, 47, who has been incarcerated on a first-degree murder conviction in California since he was 19 years old. Carter himself is among those who could be freed. After five unsuccessful parole hearings, he was found “suitable for parole� on March 18 and is awaiting a final decision from the governor.

Al Roensch, a 37-year-old So-

lano inmate who has been imprisoned for 15 years on an attempted murder conviction, says rumors spread rapidly behind the walls and that inmates frequently repeat a common joke: “We’re all going home!�

As the changes at Solano make clear, California prisons are undergoing a major face-lift.

Even so, critics point to the sheer magnitude of the problems that remain.

Solano, for example, continues to house about twice as many prisoners as it is designed for. While triple-bunking has ended, doublebunking has not, including in the prison’s maximum-security wing, where two female prison guards monitored about 200 offenders on a recent morning.

Statewide, the story is similar.

Despite recent downsizing, California prisons are at 175 percent of their design capacity. Health care behind bars remains far from adequate and even the state corrections director concedes that his counterparts in other states view his system as a model of what not to do. Prison guards complain of dangerously understaffed facilities. Meanwhile, a $7.7 billion prison construction plan signed

by Schwarzenegger in 2007 has yet to result in a single new prison being built amid squabbles over land use and bond issuance.

Republicans lash out at Oregon education lobby

Festival allows gay rights group ASHLAND — Organizers of the Pear Blossom Festival in Medford have decided to allow a gay rights group to march in its parade.

The Ashland Daily Tidings reports that festival organizers had initially denied Southern Oregon Pride from the parade, set for Saturday.

The president of the gay rights group, Gina DuQuenne, said organizers have not explained why the application was rejected at first.

The president of the festival association did not return messages seeking comment.

DuQuenne said dozens of Southern Oregon Pride members and their supporters plan to march in the parade, carrying a 31-foot rainbow flag.

Last plea entered in kidnapping plot PORTLAND — The last of three men charged with trying to kidnap Columbia Sportswear Chairwoman Gert Boyle has pleaded guilty.

The Oregonian reports that Ramon Alberto Midence, of Beaverton, pleaded guilty Thursday in Clackamas County Circuit Court to kidnapping, robbery and burglary.

Two other men from the Beaverton area, Jose Luis Arevalo and Nestor Gabriel Caballero Gutierrez, previously pleaded guilty to similar charges.

All three will be formally sentenced April 14.

In a victim’s impact statement filed with the court last month, Boyle said she no longer feels safe living alone and returned to her home only to gather belongings.

Boyle was approached at her West Linn home last November by a man offering a gift basket before he pulled a gun. Boyle was able to trigger a silent alarm, bringing police.

Transportation district investigated ASTORIA — The Oregon attorney general’s office has agreed to review the management of the Sunset Empire Transportation District in Clatsop County on the Oregon Coast.

The Daily Astorian reports that Clatsop County District Attorney Josh Marquis requested the review to determine whether any criminal investigation should be pursued after former executive director Cindy Howe resigned last month.

Marquis said it would be unfair to speculate on the case, which was triggered by financial problems at the transit agency that serves Clatsop County.

A report by a private human resources firm released to The Daily Astorian through a public records request details alleged spending habits by Howe — including personal spending on the transportation district’s credit card.

Geologist to advise Congress PORTLAND — The chief state geologist for Oregon plans to tell Congress that it’s time to get better prepared for a possible earthquake.

Oregon State Geologist Vicki McConnell says earthquakes in Japan, New Zealand, Chile and Haiti over the past 14 months have already provided some lessons on how to prepare in Oregon.

McConnell was scheduled to testify yesterday before a House science subcommittee in Washington, D.C., at a hearing on earthquake risk reduction efforts nationally.

April has been named earthquake and tsunami awareness month in Oregon, and town halls, workshops and other public outreach efforts are planned in cities along the Oregon Coast that are at risk from both a major quake and tsunami.

Harry MacCormack sits in a field of fava beans at Sunbow Farm near Corvallis.

To grain from grass Corvallis farmer wants revolution in the Valley’s agro-industry

By Emily Gillespie Corvallis Gazette-Times

CORVALLIS — Harry MacCormack has been growing grains for more than 40 years, which until recently made him a rarity in the mid-valley, where grass seed is the predominant crop. He long has held the idea that cereal grains — most commonly wheat, maize, oats, barley, rice, rye, triticale and millet — when combined with nutrition-rich beans such as soybeans are truly the stuff of life, locally produced.

Six years ago, MacCormack started encouraging other farmers to grow grains when he read an item in Chris Peterson’s biweekly “Fresh Sheet” column on local food in the Corvallis Gazette-Times.

“She was talking about the fact that she had gone through the bulk section of the co-op, and there were no local grains or seeds there,” he said. “I wanted to see if it would work. Data shows that 90 percent of our emergency food system is based in beans and grains.”

So MacCormack, who owns Sunbow Farm west of Corvallis, field-tested various grains and kept track of the growth data.

The summer of 2004 yielded 150 bushels an acre of white wheat, “which is pretty good for white wheat in this area,” he said. “It blew my mind.”

Local food movement That fall, MacCormack was invited to speak at a conference in Eugene, where he shared his data with Oregon farmers. Unbeknownst to him, the information inspired other Willamette Valley farmers to try planting some of their acreage in grain instead of grass seed.

“I didn’t realize that was what was going to happen,” he said.

MacCormack is no stranger to championing the local

foods movement.

MacCormack started several farmers markets, and he once served on the board of directors for the Ten Rivers Food Web. He founded the Southern Willamette Valley Bean and Grain Project, with a goal of adding more diversity to the local food system, which had been scant on grain production.

According to the Oregon Wheat Commission, 92 percent of all Oregon wheat — most of it grown east of the Cascades — is exported, primarily to Asian nations, where it is especially prized for making noodles.

“Historically, grass seed farmers have had some grain as a rotation crop,” said Lynne Fessenden, director of the Willamette Farm and Food Coalition. That grain, however, was sold in the commodity market. “It’s kind of maddening seeing this crop growing in the valley and not being able to buy it.”

Shift to grass seed In the 1950s through the 1970s, Willamette Valley growers produced a wide array of fruits and vegetables, but wheat dominated the field by almost a third of what was planted. In the 1980s, when wheat prices began dropping, Willamette Valley farmers began a steady conversion of wheat acreage to grass seed production for forage, suburban lawns and golf courses.

By 1990, grass seed was the valley’s dominant crop, with Linn County leading the nation in production. In 2006, 560,000 of the valley’s 900,000 acres of cropland were for the production of grass seed.

In 2009, after the housing market collapsed and new construction came to a halt, the market for grass seed for new lawns also plummeted. Local farmers quickly began switching to wheat. Around that same time, large global producers of wheat such as Russia and Australia had crop failures, which made the switch profitable. It also succeeded locally with “locavores,” who like to buy their food close to where it is produced.

Since the inception of the local project, three farms have begun growing grain for local sale: A2R in Corvallis, Hunton

High court rules on drug dogs The Associated Press PORTLAND — In a pair of cases involving routine traffic stops, the Oregon Supreme Court has ruled that prosecutors must prove the reliability of a drug detection dog when a police officer relies on the dog to conduct a search without a warrant.

In the unanimous opinions, the court ruled Thursday that several factors must be weighed to determine reliability, including training and certification.

In one case, the court upheld the Yamhill County methamphetamine possession conviction of a man arrested after a dog led officers to a pipe with drug

residue found inside a car. In the companion case, also involving methamphetamine, the court ruled the dog was not proven to be reliable and overturned a Umatilla County trial court.

The Oregon Supreme Court ruled the reliability test should apply in such cases, and should include some indication of the dog’s field performance record.

Peter Gartlan, chief defender for the state Office of Public Defense Services, said the Oregon Supreme Court rejected defense arguments that a key factor in determining the reliability of the dogs should be the level of training.

Family Farms in Junction City and Stalford Farms in Tangent.

As of 2011, there are 12 farms participating in the project, and some 1,000 acres transitioning to organic beans and grains.

The project reports that it has not met demand for three straight years — signs of a healthy appetite for local beans and grains in the Willamette Valley.

‘Good for everybody’ “I think it’s good for everybody,” MacCormack said. The hard part, he said, is convincing consumers to pay a fair price to cover the cost of paying living wages and benefits for the workers who produced the grain. However, that’s a concept at the heart of the membership of the First Alternative Natural Foods Co-op, which has been supportive of the grain project from the start.

“I prefer to buy my grains here because, after 48 hours, the milled oils go rancid,” said Nancy Baumeister, of Corvallis.

Baumeister works at the co-op’s north Corvallis store at Grant Avenue and 29th Street. She said the wheat is perfect for making fresh tortillas.

“It has higher nutrients, and it’s local,” she said.

The co-op installed a grinder in 2009 so customers could not only buy local grains but make them into flour at the push of a button. Since then, sales of grains have increased dramatically, said George Brown, the coop’s bulk buyer assistant.

“When we just sold the local wheat berries, we’d sell maybe 25 pounds a month,” Brown said.

“Now we sell between 50 and 75 pounds a week.”

Baumeister is an advocate for keeping food systems close because she said you never know when the current system might fail, leaving the shelves at the stores empty.

“Food security,” she said. “We might as well learn to do it now before we need to.”

SALEM — Partisan tensions flared in the state Capitol Thursday as two Republicans on the House Education Committee lashed out at Democrats and school lobbyists they blame for stalling the GOP’s education agenda.

The episode created rare fireworks in a tied House of Representatives typically bent this year on promoting bipartisan cohesion.

In a news conference, Republican Reps. Matt Wingard of Wilsonville and Julie Parrish of West Linn lashed out at lobbyists they blame for stifling support from Democrats and effectively stopping nine of their bills.

Democrats say Republicans aren’t willing to make the compromises necessary to win bipartisan support for their ideas.

‘Status quo lobby’ “The problem is an education status quo lobby, or what some of my committee members have begun to call a ‘panel of no,’ who are dedicated to not embracing any of the education reforms that are occurring in other places in the country,” Wingard said.

Rep. Sara Gelser, D-Corvallis, fired back that Republicans might have better spent their time negotiating with Democrats to make their proposals palatable.

“I think you move legislation in a committee room, not in a press room,” Gelser said.

“You invite people to the table to have a discussion, not to beat them up.”

Gelser and Wingard are the co-chairs of the House Education Committee, and are sharing power under an agreement worked out between Republicans and Democrats after voters sent 30 members of each party to Salem, leaving neither with a majority needed to pass legislation on its own.

Proposal is dead Today is the deadline for committee chairs to schedule a work session on bills in their chamber of origin. Wingard and Parrish declared their proposals dead because they did not appear poised to meet the deadline.

They said Democrats were unwilling or demanded concessions that would gut the bill.

The Republicans are pushing bills aimed at giving parents more choices in schools by boosting charter schools, allowing children to attend schools outside their local district or creating scholarship programs for low-income and specialneeds students to attend public or private schools outside their neighborhood.

“Tomorrow all of these great ideas die because the status quo lobby has a stronger voice than our children,” Parrish said.

Becca Uherbelau, a spokeswoman for the Oregon Education Association, said the union fights proposals “that don’t make sense for kids” and only supports education reforms that are backed by solid research.

“We believe Oregonians count on the people working on the front line in the schools to stand up against bad ideas,” Uherbelau said.

Pilot Butte gets an improvement

I

t’s a nearly done deal. Bend-La Pine Schools students who attend Pine Ridge Elementary School can expect to go to Pilot Butte Middle School, an underpopulated building closer to

home for many. The vote for change wasn’t exactly overwhelming, and some parents are sure to continue to object, but no one should question the district’s commitment to excellence at its least densely populated middle school.

District officials announced earlier this week that Pilot Butte, located on Neff Road on Bend’s east side, will become one of a handful of schools in the state offering the Middle Years Programme created by the International Baccalaureate organization based in Switzerland. It will become only the seventh middle school in Oregon to offer the program.

Though it likely will take several years for Pilot Butte to become an official IB middle years school, students and their families should begin noticing change almost immediately.

The school’s curriculum will focus on eight subject areas and include a dual-language requirement, while at least some assessments will measure the progress of Pilot Butte students against that of IB middle years students worldwide — the only middle schoolers in Bend so judged. Unlike

students at Bend High School, who must opt in to the IB program, all Pilot Butte’s middle schoolers will study the IB curriculum, and all teachers, the school’s principal hopes, will receive IB training.

That should help allay fears that students at Pilot Butte are somehow getting the short end of the district’s educational stick. The IB curriculum is offered around the world and is recognized for its rigor. It should serve as a magnet for middle school students and their parents who want an education that’s challenging and focuses on the kind of critical thinking so necessary in today’s world.

With the district and the school committed to a world-class curriculum and teachers trained to teach it, Pilot Butte promises to become something very special over the next few years.

Attack ignores reality Y

ou may well see television ads in the next few weeks accusing Rep. Dennis Richardson, R-Central Point, of single-handedly pushing for “drastic cuts” in state services from education on down. Richardson, as co-speaker of the Oregon House of Representatives, did sign off on a state budget proposal that will force cuts to many state programs.

The thing is, that same proposal also was approved by his Democratic House co-chair, Peter Buckley of Ashland, and the Democratic president of the Senate, Richard Devlin of Tualatin.

The ads are the handiwork of three of the state’s largest public unions, the Oregon Education Association; the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees; and the Service Employees International Union. They’re upset because the legislative leadership’s proposed budget for the coming biennium leaves money in ending balances and reserve funds. Given the state’s financial crisis, they contend, lawmakers should willingly spend almost everything they can get their hands on.

Blaming only the Republican onethird of a leadership triumvirate is disingenuous, of course — two-thirds of Legislature’s leadership are Democrats — but even if it weren’t, it misses the point. The three are right to ensure that the state has something in reserve in case more financial problems arise in the next couple of years.

One need only to look back a few years to see that can happen. Lawmakers met in their regularly scheduled session from January to July of

They’re upset because the legislative leadership’s proposed budget for the coming biennium leaves money in ending balances and reserve funds. Given the state’s financial crisis, they contend, lawmakers should willingly spend almost everything they can get their hands on.

2001 and left Salem with what they believed was a balanced budget. It was not, and the following year they returned to work five separate times to make the necessary cuts to keep it in balance. They spent reserves, they borrowed and they used every creative accounting trick they could think of to avoid the worst of the cuts. But the bad news kept on coming. In the end, Oregon revenues were nearly $2 billion less by the close of the biennium than they had been projected to be when the Legislature adjourned in 2001.

Ending balances and reserve funds cannot stave off all the pain should the economy continue to head south, but they can protect Oregonians from the worst of it. They allow for reasoned planning by school districts and state agencies, not midnight sessions in which cuts are made out of desperation. Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are right to want a cushion.

My Nickel’s Worth Health plan gets worse The purpose of this letter is to correct the record and advance the discussion on Obamacare.

I submitted the first version of an “In My View” on Jan. 30 of this year.

Judge Vinson had not yet ruled Obamacare unconstitutional in the case of the 26 states, suing the Obama administration. He ruled it unconstitutional the following day.

I called The Bulletin, let them know and submitted a second version Feb. 1, which did include this ruling. However, The Bulletin neglected to print the second version and printed the first version instead.

Fast-forward to March 23 when Obamacare became a year old. We continue to find out what’s in it as then Speaker Pelosi indicated, i.e., “We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what’s in it, away from the fog of the controversy.”

In one year, we have additionally found out the following: • Both our senators voted against repeal.

• Waivers granted are now over 1,000 and counting.

• The Congressional Budget Office has increased the estimated costs from $938 billion to $1.445 trillion.

• More than 6,500 pages of new regulations have been generated.

• Health care premiums are rising, and child-only policies are disappearing.

• Finally, 11 months after the bill passed, the Congressional Research Service has identified disparate funds — $105,464,000,000 — hidden in Obamacare that were intended to bypass the traditional yearly budgeting process.

This does not speak well for a bill with so much consequence that was rammed through by a purely partisan vote.

I hope this doesn’t happen in Oregon, a state with one of the best public employees’ benefit plans, but if it does, I only hope the public employees will have enough foresight to give a little to keep their jobs.

The private sector has had to make a lot of sacrifices to keep their jobs, so why shouldn’t state employees be expected to do the same?

Picking up the tab

Sign was misread

Since the budget fiasco in Wisconsin has been made a major staple of the national news, it seems that several other states have jumped on the bandwagon.

To me, that’s good, as the public employees’ unions have had too much control.

This wasn’t much of a problem when the economy was doing well, but now that we’re in a slow recovery, shouldn’t the public sector be willing to pick up a little bit more of the tab? As in the case of Wisconsin, if they don’t, several thousand public employees will be laid off.

If I were in that situation, it would be better to give a little and keep my job.

The unions have a lot of power and influence, and they helped to put a lot of candidates in office; it seems that now it’s time to pay up. A lot of the Democrats, especially in Wisconsin and Indiana, jumped ship rather than choosing to stick around and face the music.

Carol Orr (My Nickel’s Worth, March 31) totally misread and misinterpreted the sign held aloft by a participant in the March 15 rally for workers rights.

The sign does not read “trabejos.com” as Orr claims. It reads “trabejos con justicia.”

That translates to “Jobs with Justice,” which is the name of the local labor-community coalition that cosponsored the rally and is one of more than 40 Jobs with Justice coalitions around the U.S. Jobs with Justice has no connection with the anarcho-syndicalist organization Orr found after she misread the word “con,” which means “with” in Spanish.

Voters passed property tax restrictions for good reason

By Nancy Wirth Bulletin guest columnist

G

eorge Endicott, mayor of Redmond, president of the Central Oregon Cities Organization and a member of the League of Oregon Cities’ board of directors, wants to raise taxes. In a March 10 In My View, Mr. Endicott argued for lifting the current cap on local property tax rates embedded in Measures 5 and 50, claiming it is a matter of giving voters local control over their communities and essential services.

Let us remember why Oregonians voted for the very property tax restrictions Mr. Endicott resents. For decades, special interests placed levies and bond issues on the ballot and got their supporters to the polls to vote to pass them. If a vote in May failed, they would be back in November. Oregonians experienced rising property tax bills as their homes and businesses increased in value (inflation, real estate bubbles), and the rate per $1,000 in assessed value kept going up.

Fearing they might lose their homes to

the Tax Man, Oregon voters passed Measures 5 and 50.

Mr. Endicott’s problem with a cap on property tax rates is his own fault. In January, his city unveiled an urban renewal plan for Redmond, especially downtown and its government offices, family centers and the like. The architect’s conceptual drawing is beautiful, and it truly would enhance Redmond. The problem is there is no money, now or any time soon. Central Oregon, indeed the entire state, is in a deep recession, and there is no end in sight. Mr. Endicott’s solution is to raise property tax rates, as soon as he can get the law changed to eliminate the current restrictions.

But let’s not pick on Mr. Endicott — there are many folks like him. The City Council of Bend has spent (squandered?) millions of dollars on its Juniper Ridge project. Again, here is a wonderful project that would contribute greatly to Central Oregon. However, real estate development is a high-risk business. The bigger the project (and Juniper Ridge is

IN MY VIEW BIG!), the more money is at risk. It’s one thing for investors to risk their own money on such projects. It’s completely different when politicians — city councilors, county commissioners, state bureaucrats — invest everybody else’s money.

School boards are another source of questionable spending. Too often new schools become “symbols of the community’s commitment to education.”

Translate this blather as: We spent lots of money on nice buildings rather than on the students. Example: In an In My View printed March 16, John Weekley challenged The Bulletin’s editorial opposition to LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) standard certification for Oregon schools. Despite Mr. Weekley’s glowing language, LEED is about paying (extra) money for some self-appointed officials to come tell the school district it built its school to a publicly available standard, and then the

district can hang its shiny new LEED plaque in the foyer. The district can build the school to the standard and save money by forgoing the plaque. The Bulletin’s skepticism is well founded. First, who needs the plaque? Second, many of the “green” elements are expensive and may never save enough on the utility bill to justify the expense. Remember this the next time your school district is crying they need more money.

Another threat to your property taxes is the fetish of “mass transit” here in Central Oregon, and those officials who still dream of a regionwide system. First fact: There is no “mass” in the “transit” in Central Oregon, or even in Bend, because there is no concentration of business or industry or retail, no central hub.

The hospital (major employer) is on the extreme east side; the community college and university (another hub) are on the extreme west side. Despite this dispersal, some want bus service connecting everyone to everything. Worse, an In My View last January from Alistair Pat-

erson suggested we need urban rail passenger service. Please. Second fact: None of these ideas works financially; all will have to be subsidized by the taxpayer, either through increased property taxes or a regional income tax.

What public officials forget (or ignore) is there is only so much money the taxpayer can afford for “essential services.”

Public officials have a responsibility to ensure that what they spend tax money on truly is “essential.” State mandates requiring payment of “prevailing wages” and expensive art on public projects add expense. Local officials add their own not-so-essential costs.

Before we give public officials the ability to raise our taxes more easily, let’s make sure they are spending the money we give them wisely. Not every public service is “essential.” Not every wonderful project is appropriate. Not every good intention is affordable. Let’s keep public officials on a short tax leash.

Bill Varney, 77, Oscar-winning sound mixer Los Angeles Times LOS ANGELES — Bill Varney, an Academy Award-winning sound mixer whose final film credit was a “director’s edition” of Orson Welles’ “Touch of Evil” that was released on the film’s 40th anniversary, has died. He was 77.

Varney died Saturday.

He won back-to-back Oscars for sound on “The Empire Strikes Back” (1980) and “Raiders of the Lost Ark” (1981).

Tribal Continued from C1 Opponents said if tribal police officers have the authority to arrest off the reservation, nontribal police officers should have that authority on the reservation.

Without reciprocity, opponents said, this bill would “grant tribal police officers with more enforcement authority than any law enforcement agency in Oregon.”

“The reciprocity issue is a deal breaker for me,” said Sen. Doug Whitsett, R-Klamath Falls, who voted against the bill’s passage out of committee.

He said the bill would make the tribal police officers “super” policing agencies.

Louie Pitt, director of government affairs with Warm Springs, said reciprocity is a non-negotiable point with the tribes.

“It’s a cornerstone of the U.S. Constitution and American law that the reservation is set aside for exclusive use of Indians,” he said.

Pitt said he thinks the bill the way it’s written is good for all Oregonians. “(The bill) goes toward having protections for tribal members and state citizens off the reservation,” he said. “I think that’s something we always strive for, to make sure our state is safer ... With limited budgets and limited staff-

Conger Continued from C1 “This is a really extraordinary opportunity. This is not a time when it’s easy to find capital,” he said. “But with all these things coming together at the same time, our argument is extraordinarily strong that it should be funded. And there probably couldn’t be a better time to get some good news for Bend.”

OSU-Cascades has been considering expanding for some time. Currently, the

Union Continued from C1 Bruce Bischof, a private attorney who advises the county on labor issues, said at the time that the county will seek this health insurance payment structure with all of its employees.

Currently, county employees pay a set dollar amount for health insurance each month, and each employee union contract contains limits on these premiums. Employees now pay $50 a month for health insurance. Health insurance currently costs the county roughly $1,000 a month per employee, county staff said earlier this week.

On Thursday night, County Administrator Dave Kanner called the current fixed dollar amount premiums “the exception” in Oregon. Kanner acknowledged that the county’s proposal would hit employees at the bottom of the pay scale harder than people at the top, such as himself, but, he said, so does the current fixed dollar premium. The lowest county salary is probably approximately $24,000, Kanner said.

By charging employees a percentage of the county’s cost to provide insurance, employees would have an incentive to keep costs down, Kanner said.

The county would not implement the cost-share insurance premiums for at least a year.

Kanner plans to propose to the budget committee in May that full-time employees pay insurance premiums of $65 a month

Celebration of Life for

Wilma Pauline Todd Wilma’s family would like to extend an invitation for all that knew her to please join them in celebrating her life.

Wilma was born on April 11, 1936, and passed away on November 28, 2010, after losing her battle with cancer.

A celebration of life will be held on April 9, 2011, at the Terrebonne Grange Hall located at the corner of Smith Rock Way and 11th Street between the hours of 11am to 1pm. The family will be providing food and beverages.

IN THE LEGISLATURE Senate Bill 412 This bill broadens tribal police officer authority, allowing them to enforce state law even while not on the reservation.

Central Oregon Impact: If passed, Warm Springs Police officers would have arresting authority off the reservation.

Read the bill: http://www.leg .state.or.us/11reg/measures/ sb0400.dir/sb0412.intro.html

ing, we really do need to work together. We have no choice but to work together.”

Amendments to the bill would address some of the key concerns, such as if a tribal police officer could be sued. As a condition to enforcing state law, under this bill, tribal officers would have to waive sovereign immunity if they arrested a nontribal member who then sued them.

This bill would also mandate that all tribal officers complete the same state training requirements as off-reservation cops.

Currently, most tribal officers complete the same training as state, city or county police officers, but they are not mandated to do so.

The Oregon State Sheriff’s Association officials testified that they believe the Oregon Supreme

Court’s decision did enough. That case began in 2005 on the Warm Springs reservation. Officer Joseph Davino was on U.S. Highway 26 when he saw a car moving erratically. Davino tried to pull over the vehicle, but Thomas Kurtz, the driver, sped across the reservation’s boundary.

Eventually Davino pulled Kurtz over. The driver was convicted of attempting to elude a police officer and resisting arrest. But the Oregon Court of Appeals overturned Kurtz’s conviction, ruling that Davino was not acting as an agent of the state of Oregon and did not have authority to enforce state law. The upper court overruled that decision, saying the lower court relied on a narrow definition of “police officer.”

“The Tribes remain concerned that State v. Kurtz still lacks clarity in their desire to issue citations, make arrest upon probable cause with or without a warrant, apply for and execute a search warrant, and applicable statutory authority for search and seizure.

“We would agree and restate our opposition to SB 412 because tribal police should seek assistance from local law enforcement for enforcement authority off tribal land or Indian country,” Polk County Sheriff Bob Wolfe submitted to the committee on behalf of the Oregon State Sheriff’s Association.

university is housed in Cascades Hall on the Central Oregon Community College campus.

“This funding would enable OSU-Cascades to continue its enrollment growth and the development of new academic programs, and meet the higher education needs of Central Oregon,” Johnson said in a statement. “It would also ensure that we are investing our funds wisely, by purchasing an existing building and leveraging the generosity of a private donor.”

Buying a building, rather than leasing, would save the school an estimated $225,000 a year.

Rod Ray, CEO of Bend Research, said Central Oregon needs highly educated employees. “(The partnership) will allow us to collaborate with students and faculty to imagine new technologies, enhance the graduate programs and develop a local skilled workforce for the future,” he said in a statement.

in the upcoming budget year.

“It’s my hope that it will not be necessary to raise employee contributions at all beyond next year,” Kanner said. But to do that, employees need to get serious about containing health care costs.

One idea on which county managers and AFSCME appeared to agree is that employees should pay different insurance premiums based on whether they are insuring dependents. The county’s plan would include an option for the county to charge different rates for single employees, employee-and-spouse coverage and family coverage. Employees now pay the same amount for their

insurance, whether it covers just the employee or the employee’s family.

“We all recognize there’s going to be an increase in health insurance premiums,” Dharmarajah said. “A $50 flat fee, regardless of dependents, probably will not exist in the new contract. But $200 as the ceiling, $200 a month from a paycheck, especially from our lowest income earners, is an unfair burden.”

The next bargaining session between AFSCME and Deschutes County is scheduled for April 28.

Lane County tries door-to-door tactic for dog tags

By Matt Cooper The (Eugene) Register- Guard

EUGENE — Dogs of Lane County beware: The next knock at the door could be the dogcatcher.

Lane County Animal Services is going door to door selling dog licenses. Dog owners will have the option of buying or renewing a license on the spot — or facing a stiff fine.

License Compliance Officer Peter Robinson canvassed a neighborhood in northwest Eugene recently. Using his list of dog owners and their canines, Robinson knocked on the door of an owner who had allowed a license to lapse.

There was no one home, but with one knock, a booming bark erupted inside.

“The doorbell sure sets him off,” Robinson said, and then he tried to calm the dog. “Hey, Mocha, what’s going on? Good dog, protect that home.”

The county has gone door-todoor for dog licenses before, but Robinson’s full-time licensing position is a first. The job is expected to pay for itself in additional license revenue, which provides key income for the animal shelter, said Karen Gaffney, assistant director of Health and Human Services.

There are about 92,000 dogs in Lane County, and local cities have reported licensing compliance rates ranging from 6 to nearly 40 percent, according to county Animal Services officials.

Increase in licenses Licensing is up dramatically in the county shelter’s coverage area, which includes Eugene and unincorporated Lane County. In 2003, 22 percent of Eugene residents and 14 percent of residents in unincorporated areas licensed their dogs; today, the numbers are 40 percent and 42 percent, respectively, the county said.

The jump is largely due to the advent of rabies vaccination reporting. When veterinarians give rabies vaccinations, they are required to report basic information about the dog and owner to Animal Services. The county uses this information to track dog owners and see whether they have licenses for them.

The county also makes licensing available over the phone, online and on-site at some veterinary locations, Gaffney said.

Dog owners also may be motivated by the threat of a steep fine for having an unlicensed dog, which can run between $125 and $250 in Eugene and as much as $477 in unincorporated Lane County.

Some owners bristle at licensing, saying it’s cheaper to buy dog tags with an address and phone number. Licensing a dog that has been neutered or spayed costs $15 for one year, or $35 if the dog is fertile.

The county is motivated to push licensing, which can generate more than $37,000 monthly and provides 22 percent of the Animal Services budget. All revenue generated from license fees supports abuse and neglect investigations, sheltering of stray and abandoned animals, dangerous dog investigations, spay-neuter programs for low-income families and emergency medical services, the county said.

Licensing also keeps costs down by enabling the county to return loose dogs to their homes without taking them in at the shelter in west Eugene, Gaffney said.

$36,000 job In establishing a full-time position for a license compliance officer, the county copied a program in Washington County. The Lane County position — which pays up to $36,000, not counting health care and retirement benefits — is expected to pay for itself in additional license revenue. It will be reviewed at the end of the fiscal year in June.

Santa Clara resident Cheri Brokaw — who owns two dogs — said she’s a strong supporter of licensing, but as a taxpayer, she wonders whether a door-to-door approach is the best way to get results.

“It sounds like it’s awfully labor-intensive and could be expensive,” she said. “I would hope they could prove that they would at least break even on it.”

Gaffney said the approach is only part of the county’s licensing program, but that it can work with dog owners when there is reason to believe that a dog isn’t licensed.

Robinson sees his work as customer service: Going door to door means dog owners can buy or renew a dog license on the spot, he said — he takes cash, checks and credit cards.

The shelter can track license compliance by ZIP code, allowing Robinson to focus on households that need to renew a dog license.

He also visits households if he can see or hear that they have a dog, Shelter Manager Rick Hammel said.

It can be a delicate dance to appear on someone’s doorstep, uninvited, and inform them of the need to license their pet or face a fine in the hundreds of dollars.

On more than one occasion during his recent effort, Robinson’s only reception was from a dog that, upon hearing a knock at the door, immediately went into defense mode, barking repeatedly.

The response from dog owners is generally better — but they can get their hackles up, too.

“Some people give me their story on how the county should be run,” Robinson said. “I get that a lot.”

During his rounds in Eugene, Lane County Animal Control License Compliance Officer Peter Robinson fills out a door-hanger card after finding no one at home with an allegedly unlicensed dog. The new door-to-door initiative is an attempt to increase license compliance and revenue.

THE BULLETIN • FRIDAY, APRIL 8, 2011

PREP BASKETBALL Area players land on all-state teams After a high school basketball season in which five Central Oregon teams advanced to their respective state tournaments, seven area players have received all-state recognition.

In Class 5A, Bend senior Taylor Raterman and Mountain View junior James Reid were named to the 5A boys all-state second team. Raterman and Reid both led their teams to the 5A boys state tournament, where the Lava Bears went 1-2 for fifth place and the Cougars finished 0-2.

Mountain View senior Kersey Wilcox was named to the 5A girls all-state second team. Wilcox, the 2011 Intermountain Hybrid player of the year, guided Mountain View to its first state tournament appearance. In Class 4A, Madras junior Abby Scott and Crook County senior Danni Severance were both selected to the girls all-state second team. Scott helped the White Buffaloes to a third-place finish at state, while Severance powered the Cowgirls, a No. 7 seed at the start of the postseason, to a surprise run into the state tournament.

Madras senior JoElla Smith received 4A girls all-state honorable mention.

In 4A boys basketball, Madras junior Bobby Ahern was named to the all-state second team.

The all-state boys and girls basketball teams are voted on by Oregon high school coaches and compiled by The Oregonian newspaper.

For a complete list of the 5A and 4A all-state teams, see Scoreboard on Page D3.

AUGUSTA, Ga. — The flair of Rory McIlroy. The sheer power of Alvaro Quiros. These are but two of the fresh faces in golf who offered more evidence Thursday at the Masters that a new generation is on the way.

And that’s only going to make it tougher on Phil Mickelson and Tiger Woods.

The 21-year-old McIlroy, who opened with a 63 at St. Andrews last summer in the British Open, again delivered exquisite shots on one of golf’s biggest stages for a 7-under 65. It was such a clean round that he didn’t make a bogey and was left wondering how much lower he could have gone if not for missing five birdie chances inside 10 feet.

“It wasn’t maybe as exclusive or spectacular as the 63 at St. Andrews,” he said. “But it was very solid from start to finish.”

Then came Quiros, a 28-year-old Spaniard whom many consider the longest hitter in the game. Blasting away on a course where he had never shot better than 75, he spun an approach back to 3 feet on the 18th hole to catch McIlroy atop the leaderboard.

Mt. Bachelor National Ski Patrol candidates tend to an “injured” patient while training as alpine first responders. Here, they have treated and packaged the patient, made their radio calls and are ready to transport the patient.

Peak patrol The Mt. Bachelor National Ski Patrol is looking for a few new members with a desire to help

J

ack Staton recalls sidestepping down a ski slope to groom one run per day at Mt. Bachelor — and that was even with some of the customers helping out.

As an original member of the Mt. Bachelor National Ski Patrol in 1958, Staton, now 84, can reflect on how much things have changed.

“Most everything was done by hand,” says Staton, who lives in La Pine. “There wasn’t any equipment for grooming or anything. We’d groom a run by tromping down the hill.”

Now the resort has an army of machines to groom more than 60 runs a day, and the ski patrol can focus on other concerns.

The nonprofit Mt. Bachelor National Ski Patrol — a 90-member volunteer organization whose members work weekends to supplement the paid “pro” patrol staff of 25 — has evolved dramatically over the past 50-plus years. Unchanged, however, is the most important quality of a good patroller: the desire to help fellow skiers and snowboarders.

BANKS — Playing on the same course the Class 6A and 5A state boys golf tournaments will be played, Redmond High defeated Central Oregon rival Summit 321-323 for top honors at the four-team Summit Invitational on Thursday at Quail Valley Golf Course.

Storm junior Dylan Cramer claimed medalist honors with a 5-over-par 77, but three of the Panthers’ five Inside golfers shot • More prep 80 or lower to sports post the win. coverage, Redmond senPage D3 ior Jared Lambert finished second individually with a 78, and Ben Moore and Riley Cron each posted an 80.

Willamette High of Eugene finished third with a 336 and South Salem placed fourth with a 363.

“We wanted to know what this course looked like and hopefully come back,” Summit coach Mark Tichenor said. “We set the tees to the same distance at what they will be at state so we could play the same length.”

In addition to Cramer’s 77, Cole Ortega recorded an 81 and T.K. Wasserman added an 82 for the Storm.

Both teams are off until Tuesday, when they play at the BendSummit Invitational at Pronghorn Club east of Bend.

Mariners prepare for emotional home opener without Hall of Fame broadcaster

By Tim Booth The Associated Press

SEATTLE — After nearly two months in Arizona and a six-game road trip to open the regular season, new Seattle manager Eric Wedge was ready to come home and finally enjoy a house he’s rarely spent any time in.

“My family’s there, but I don’t think I’ve been there in forever,” Wedge said as the Mariners wrapped up a series in Texas on Wednesday. “It’s exciting to get in front of our fans for the first time.”

But his home debut as the man charged with trying

to turn around the Mariners will take a backseat tonight when Seattle hosts Cleveland.

This home opener for Seattle is all about Hall of Fame broadcaster Dave Niehaus, who died from a heart attack on Nov. 10.

Tonight will be the first time in franchise history that Niehaus isn’t behind the mic for a home opener. For 34 seasons, Niehaus was the narrator for baseball in the Pacific Northwest, from the first pitch in franchise history, through the final out of the 2010 season.

After two wins, the Richard Childress Racing driver is already in good shape to make the Sprint Cup’s postseason

By Jenna Fryer The Associated Press

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Two wins in two races doesn’t make Kevin Harvick the sudden favorite to win NASCAR’s title this year.

It does, however, give him a whole lot of leeway under NASCAR’s new qualifying standards for the 12-driver Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

Harvick picked up his second win of the season last weekend at Martinsville Speedway, where he ran down Dale Earnhardt Jr. over the closing laps for a second-straight come-from-nowhere victory.

Although it moved him four spots in the standings to fifth, Harvick doesn’t have to worry about points for the foreseeable future.

Because NASCAR this year changed the way it will set the Chase — two wild-cards will be given to the drivers with the most wins who aren’t ranked in the top 10 — Harvick may have the freedom to start planning his championship run a mere six weeks into the season. Two wins would have been enough if this system was in place last year.

“I’ll take our chances on making the Chase with the wild card stuff,” Harvick said. “Here we are, six weeks into the season, and I feel like we can take more chances than we did last year. I feel like we can really push the limits on racing, and just the fact that we have got that caution in our back pocket.”

That’s trouble for five-time defending NASCAR champion Jimmie Johnson and everyone else, too.

Harvick was strong last year in leading the resurgence at Richard Childress Racing. He won three races, led the points race for 20 weeks during the regular season, and hung with Johnson and Denny Hamlin during the Chase. He was still in the hunt headed into the season finale, and finished third in the final standings, 41 points behind Johnson and two behind Hamlin.

Unlike Hamlin, who has sputtered out of the gate this season and has been plagued by reliabil-

ity issues at Joe Gibbs Racing, Harvick has picked up where he left off in the pursuit of Johnson. The only glitch was an engine failure in the seasonopening Daytona 500, where Harvick made just 22 laps before his day ended with a 42nd-place finish.

He laughed that day when asked if was concerned about his position in the points and still maintains he’s never worried.

“I was laughing because it had been 156 races since we had had an engine problem and it’s hard to get down on anybody for one-in-156 in this sport,” he said. “It’s one of the best engine depart-

ments in the business. There’s no reason to get down on those guys because all I’m going to do is cause are more harm than I will good getting down on them.”

So it’s been all about positive attitude for Harvick, even though in-race challenges the past two weeks have given him reason to lose his cool. Although Harvick’s nickname is “Happy,” he’s been known to be anything but when his team isn’t performing.

“I should get a medal,” crew chief Gil Martin joked. “Kevin’s matured a lot, and through his maturity, he’s made me mature in a lot of ways. Even though I’m older, I’ve matured in a lot of ways at the race track, because there are a lot of things that are much more important to me at the race track and we don’t spend a lot time looking for the trick shock of the week or the trick setup or hot tip car.”

Basketball • LeBron James’ mom charged in Florida hotel altercation: The mother of Miami Heat basketball star LeBron James was arrested by Miami Beach police after she was accused of assaulting a valet worker because it was taking too long to have her car delivered. Police said Gloria James had a strong odor of alcohol on her breath and her eyes were bloodshot when officers arrived at the hotel about 4:47 a.m. Thursday. She was released with a promise to appear on charges of simple battery and disorderly conduct. “It’s a sensitive subject,” LeBron James said after the Heat practiced Thursday afternoon. “It’s a personal matter. It’s being taken care of.”

• Jayhawks’ Morris twins declare for NBA draft: Kansas twins Marcus and Markieff Morris have hired an agent and will skip their senior seasons with the Jayhawks to enter the NBA draft. The forwards from Philadelphia led the team in scoring, rebounding and blocked shots last season, when the Jayhawks went 35-3, won the Big 12 regular-season and tournament titles, and advanced to the regional semifinals as a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament. Marcus, a second-team All-American, averaged 17.2 points and 7.6 rebounds last season, while Markieff was an honorable-mention All-American after averaging 13.6 points and 8.3 rebounds.

Football • NFL, players disagree on who should oversee talks: A day after the judge handling the NFL lockout lawsuit urged the sides to go “back to the table,” the players and owners both expressed a willingness to do so. The hitch: Each offered to meet for talks in a setting the other finds unpalatable. A lawyer representing MVP quarterbacks Tom Brady, Peyton Manning and other players suing the NFL wrote U.S. District Judge Susan Richard Nelson on Thursday to say they’re willing to engage in mediation overseen by her federal court in St. Paul, Minn. And the NFL sent its own letter Thursday to Nelson and to lawyers for the players, proposing to resume talks about 1,000 miles from that courthouse — instead returning to the Washington office of federal mediator George Cohen.

Since filing suit in Minnesota on March 11, the players repeatedly have said they only are interested in meeting with the league to discuss settling the litigation. And since the lockout began at midnight later that night, the NFL repeatedly has said it only is interested in returning to mediated bargaining.

• Roethlisberger confirms plans for July wedding: Ben Roethlisberger will marry a 26-year-old physician’s assistant whom he said he met during training camp in 2005 and has been friends with ever since, the Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette for a story in Thursday’s editions. Roethlisberger, speaking publicly for the first time since the Steelers’ loss to the Green Bay Packers in the Super Bowl, talked about his fiancee, her family and the impact their engagement has had on everyone involved since it leaked out in various media outlets late last year. The 29-year-old quarterback also addressed the scrutiny he faced after he was accused of sexual assault in a Georgia nightclub in March 2010 and said his engagement is not a ploy to rebuild his public image.

Golf • Rule change could spare some from disqualification: In a change directed at scorecards and television viewers, golf revised one of its rules Thursday so that players who learn of a violation after they sign their cards can be penalized without being disqualified. The Royal & Ancient and USGA announced the new interpretation an hour before the Masters. It is effective immediately. It is not a change in the actual Rules of Golf, rather a book of Decisions that allows officials various case studies. The new interpretation is of Decision 33-7/4.5, that essentially gives officials more latitude to determine if a player should be disqualified.

Hockey • Michigan, Minnesota Duluth to play for Frozen Four title: Michigan’s Ben Winnett scored a first-period goal that gave the defensive-minded Wolverines an early edge and goalie Kevin Hunwick made 40 saves for his fourth shutout this season in a 2-0 victory over North Dakota on Thursday night in the NCAA semifinals in St. Paul, Minn.

Scooter Vaughan added an empty-netter with 35.8 seconds left, and the Wolverines (29-10-4) will meet Minnesota Duluth on Saturday. The Bulldogs beat Notre Dame 4-3 in the other semifinal.

Olympics • IOC, USOC hope for deal by July on revenue sharing: The IOC and U.S. Olympic Committee made more progress Thursday in negotiations on a new revenue-sharing agreement and hope to sign a deal by July. USOC chairman Larry Probst and CEO Scott Blackmun met with the three-man International Olympic Committee negotiating team in the latest talks aimed at resolving the long-festering financial dispute that has strained relations.

Rangers dealt crushing blow

by Thrashers The Associated Press

Baseball • Los Angeles police to increase security at Dodger Stadium: Police will heighten security at Los Angeles Dodgers home games after a severe beating at the season opener left a San Francisco Giants fan with brain damage. “You’re going to see a sea of blue, but it’s not going to be Dodgers blue. It’s going to be LAPD blue,” police Chief Charlie Beck said Thursday. “This is going to be a game-changer.” Beck asked the team to pay for the deployment of uniformed officers and was negotiating the amount with team officials. He declined to estimate how much the extra personnel would cost or how many officers would be deployed but said he would spare no expense to ensure public safety at Dodger Stadium.

• Twins’ Nishioka breaks left fibula in loss: The Twins’ heralded Japanese import, Tsuyoshi Nishioka, broke his left fibula after the Yankees’ Nick Swisher slid into him at second base while breaking up a double play in Minnesota’s 4-3 loss Thursday. Nishioka had to be helped off the field, barely putting weight on the leg, in the seventh inning. Swisher slid well to the left of the bag as Nishioka tried to turn the double play. The Twins believed the play was clean, and Swisher apologized to Nishioka after the game. Nishioka was placed on the 15-day disabled list, and he will be examined by Dr. John Steubs on Friday in Minnesota as the Twins determine how long he will be out.

• Bonds case goes to the jury: The federal case against Barry Bonds is now in the hands of a jury. Closing arguments in the former baseball star’s 12-day trial wrapped up Thursday afternoon and the jury went home a few minutes later. They’ll pick up with deliberations this morning.

Clay Gibson took the loss for Culver (39), giving up eight runs in three innings of work. The game ended after five innings because of the 10-run mercy rule.

New York Islanders’ Travis Hamonic, right, and Pittsburgh Penguins’ Michael Rupp fight in the second period of a game in February that was marred by altercations.

Pens and Isles meet two months after ‘fight night’ The Associated Press UNIONDALE, N.Y. — If the Pittsburgh Penguins and New York Islanders fought things out on the silver screen instead of a sheet of ice, the sequel would have a roman numeral tacked onto the title a la “Rocky.”

It’s been two months since the Atlantic Division rivals staged one of the most penalty- and fight-filled games they or the NHL has ever seen. Much has changed since that Friday night in February when the Islanders had revenge on their minds and took care of getting it in all kinds of ways.

Whether the bad blood still exists when the Penguins return to Long Island tonight remains to be seen.

“Sometimes games like this, there is all the hype and it’s just another game,” Islanders tough guy Micheal Haley said Thursday.

The last game featured 65 penalties, 346 penalty minutes, 10 ejections, 15 fighting majors and 20 misconducts in the Islanders’ 9-3 victory that was never competitive. Records were set for both teams for most combined penalty minutes, and there were few players around to finish the game.

Both sides tried to downplay what will happen once they are back on the ice together, and the teams are going in different directions. New York has only two games remaining in a disappointing season, and Pittsburgh is playing out the string with only a potentially better postseason seeding on the line in the final weekend.

“We are in the playoffs and we are trying to get ready for the playoffs. Their season is over,” Penguins forward Pascal Dupuis said. “It’s a different atmosphere in both locker rooms. I don’t expect too much to happen.”

That seemed to be a common theme, but no one could be certain there wouldn’t be a repeat of the mayhem that played out at Nassau Coliseum on Feb. 11. Any questionable hit or lopsided score or something unforeseen could re-ignite a fuse that is likely still hot.

The fire was first lit nine days before the previous matchup in a game at Pittsburgh. In that one, the Islanders were angry about an unpenalized hit to the head of forward Blake Comeau by Pittsburgh’s Max Talbot that caused a concussion. They didn’t shy away from showing their displeasure when they had the Penguins in

their home arena.

And that’s where they will have them again today.

“I already addressed this with our team on two separate occasions. Our sole intent going into that building is to win a hockey game and not be interested in doing any other kind of activity,” Penguins coach Dan Bylsma said.

The Islanders, who are trying to stay out of the Eastern Conference cellar, will be playing in front of just their fourth home sellout of the season — but third straight. This highly anticipated second round with the Penguins will be greeted by rabid fans certainly looking for more eruptions on ice.

“I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s probably in (the Penguins’) hands how the game is going to be played out,” Islanders enforcer Zenon Konopka said Thursday.

“Obviously, two games ago, we were upset with the way our players were being treated. The next game was intense, and some people would say it got out of hand.”

That’s an understatement.

In addition to the hit on Comeau back on Feb. 2, Islanders goalie Rick DiPietro also sustained facial fractures and a knee injury when he was struck in a fight by Penguins netminder Brent Johnson.

In the rematch, Matt Martin jumped Talbot at center ice to spark one of many brawls that seemed to break out every few minutes. Haley, called up by the Islanders earlier that day, skated the length of the ice to fight Johnson, as well.

Trevor Gillies was suspended nine games for elbowing Eric Tangradi in the head and punching him several times, leaving the Penguins forward with concussionlike symptoms. Martin was given a four-game ban for his hit on Talbot, and the Islanders were fined $100,000 by the NHL for failing to control their players.

The only supplemental discipline given to the Penguins was an automatic 10-game suspension to Eric Godard for leaving the bench to join a fight in the third.

“The suspensions were probably warranted,” Martin said. “The game did get a little bit out of control, but that’s hockey sometimes. It’s a funny sport. You’re able to kind of stick up for each other and fight for each other. There is no other sport you can really do that.

“We’ll see how the game goes.”

NEW YORK — The Rangers’ playoff chances were squarely in their hands heading into the final days of the regular season. The Atlanta Thrashers, with nothing else to play for, took it away without much of a fight.

Rob Schremp and Andrew Ladd scored 15 seconds apart in the second period, Ondrej Pavelec made 29 saves, and the Thrashers delivered a crushing blow to the Rangers’ postseason hopes with a 3-0 victory Thursday night.

For the second straight season, New York will play its final game with the playoffs hanging in the balance. Last year, a shootout loss at Philadelphia kept the Rangers out.

“We felt this coming for the past three weeks,” Rangers coach John Tortorella said. “The game itself surprises me, but it doesn’t surprise me it’s going to take us 82. We’ll be ready to play Game 82.”

Just three nights after the Rangers posted their most stirring win of the season with a late comeback against the Boston Bruins, New York looked flat without second-leading scorer and overall leader Ryan Callahan. That proved costly against the also-ran Thrashers, who had lost four of six but played the spoiler role perfectly and beat New York for the third time in the four-game season series.

“Let’s face it, we laid an egg and we need to move by it as quickly as possible,” Tortorella said.

Now with only one game left — a home matchup against division rival New Jersey on Saturday — the Rangers are in trouble. New York leads ninthplace Carolina by two points, but the Hurricanes have two games remaining — in Atlanta tonight and at home against Tampa Bay Saturday night — and own the tiebreaker over the Rangers.

“All we’ve lost is the control.

You have to hope for help,” said Tortorella.

American League roundup

National League roundup

• White Sox 5, Rays 1: CHICAGO — Edwin Jackson struck out a career-high 13 and Chicago took its home opener by sending winless Tampa Bay to its sixth straight loss. The AL East champion Rays extended the worst start in team history — they haven’t even held a lead yet this year. Tampa Bay has scored exactly one run in five of its defeats.

Jackson (2-0), who pitched a no-hitter against Tampa Bay last season while with Arizona, allowed four hits in eight innings. He lost his shutout bid in the eighth when pinch-hitter Felipe Lopez double and Reid Brignac singled.

• Yankees 4, Twins 3: NEW YORK — Derek Jeter passed Rogers Hornsby for 33rd place on baseball’s all-time list with two hits, and the New York Yankees’ relievers held off Minnesota. A.J. Burnett (2-0) improved to 7-0 in 12 April starts for the Yankees, allowing two runs on five hits in six innings. With the Yankees up 4-3, Rafael Soriano pitched a scoreless eighth two days after he surrendered a 4-0 lead in a game Minnesota won in extra innings.

• Athletics 2, Blue Jays 1: TORONTO — Trevor Cahill pitched eight strong innings for his first win of the season, Conor Jackson singled home the goahead run and Oakland beat Toronto. Brian Fuentes closed it out for his first save as the Athletics avoided a three-game sweep. Fuentes gave up a two-out single to Adam Lind before getting Aaron Hill to fly out.

• Indians 1, Red Sox 0: CLEVELAND — Winless Boston lost its sixth in a row when Cleveland squeezed home the only run in the eighth inning, then trapped pinch-runner Darnell McDonald off second base for the final out. The Red Sox are off their worst start since 1945, when they lost a teamrecord eight straight. Boston, favored by many to win the World Series, returns to Fenway Park for its home opener today against the New York Yankees.

• Orioles 9, Tigers 5: BALTIMORE — Adam Jones homered and drove in three runs, Mark Reynolds also had three RBIs, and Baltimore used a five-run seventh inning to beat Detroit. Vladimir Guerrero hit his first home run with the Orioles, who took two of three from the Tigers after opening the season with a three-game sweep in Tampa Bay.

• Phillies 11, Mets 0: PHILADELPHIA — Roy Halladay pitched seven sharp innings for his first win of the season, Wilson Valdez had a careerhigh four hits, and Philadelphia beat the New York Mets. Halladay (1-0) allowed six hits and struck out seven. The reigning NL Cy Young Award winner gave up one run in six innings in the opener against Houston, and avoided a loss when the Phillies rallied in the ninth for a 5-4 win. The four-time NL East champions are off to a 5-1 start in a season where nothing less than a second World Series title in four years will be considered a success.

• Brewers 4, Braves 2: MILWAUKEE — Nyjer Morgan jarred the ball loose in a collision at home to give Milwaukee the lead in the second inning, and the Brewers went on to beat Atlanta for their third straight win. Ryan Braun hit his third home run of the season for the Brewers, who have recovered nicely from a four-game losing streak to start the year. Milwaukee rallied to take three of four games from the Braves after losing Monday’s home opener at Miller Park.

• Rockies 7, Pirates 1: PITTSBURGH — Esmil Rogers allowed four singles while pitching into the eighth inning, Troy Tulowitzki homered and drove in three runs, and Colorado beat Pittsburgh to wreck the Pirates’ home opener under new manager Clint Hurdle. Rogers (1-0) won the Rockies’ No. 5 job with a strong finish in spring training. He looked more like their ace, mixing a devastating 95 mph fastball with a few breaking pitches to overwhelm the Pirates over 7 1⁄3 dominant innings.

• Astros 3, Reds 2: CINCINNATI — Matt Downs doubled home the tiebreaking run with two outs in the ninth inning and Houston held on for its first win of the season, over previously unbeaten Cincinnati. The Astros were the last NL team to win a game, and they did it with a little drama. Closer Brandon Lyon, who blew his only other save chance on opening day, gave up a pair of two-out singles before getting pinch-hitter Ramon Hernandez to ground into a forceout.

• Nationals 5, Marlins 3: MIAMI — Adam LaRoche snapped a slump with a two-run homer in the 11th inning, and Washington salvaged the final game of the series. LaRoche was three for 23 before he hit his first homer of the year off Edward Mujica (1-1).

From favorites to flops, Red Sox come home at 0-6

By Howard Ul m an The Associated Press

BOSTON -— The deliveryman unloaded cases of beer from his truck just outside Fenway Park.

A worker cleared the dust and litter just inside Gate D with a highpowered vacuum.

The historic home of the Boston Red Sox was just about ready for its 100th opener today.

The team needs plenty of work.

The high-priced Red Sox were a popular pick to win the World Series. So far they’ve lost every game, six in a row, their worst start in 66 years. The team batting average is .181. The ERA is 7.13.

But even with the rival New York Yankees coming in for a three-game series, signs of panic seem as rare as a Red Sox rally.

“We’re going to score a lot of runs,” said Jon Lester, who pitched seven shutout innings in Thursday’s 1-0 loss to the Cleveland Indians. “It’s just a matter of time.”

Back home, fans, usually quick to ask “What haven’t you done for me lately?” were surprisingly calm in their calls to all-talk radio shows.

Tony Dejak / The Associated Press

Cleveland second baseman Orlando Cabrera (20) tags out Boston’s Darnell McDonald at second base in the ninth inning for the final play of Thursday’s game in Cleveland. The Indians won 1-0.

Brandon in Allston: “I don’t think the Red Sox are done.”

But another caller said the team seemed to lack focus and a third questioned manager Terry Francona’s toughness.

Francona was loose before Thursday’s game and matter of fact afterward. That was a sharp

contrast to St. Louis manager Tony LaRussa, who went on a postgame rant after Wednesday’s 3-1 loss to Pittsburgh when asked about the Cardinals’ offseason effort to improve its lineup — an effort that, so far, has failed.

For the Red Sox, the pressure is building to get that first win, es-

pecially with Saturday’s and Sunday’s games against the Yankees on national television. But they’ll have the advantage of playing before their own fans, a full house that is sure to cheer loudly during pre-game introductions. Their reaction might be different if starter John Lackey struggles.

“There’s not two Red Sox teams.

There’s only one,” designated hitter David Ortiz said. “You gotta cheer for this one if you are a Red Sox fan, right?”

History works both ways.

Sure, the Red Sox haven’t been 0-6 since 1945. But in Francona’s eight seasons as their manager, they’ve had a winning record after six games just once and still won two World Series. In 2009, they had two six-game losing streaks and reached the playoffs.

Besides, the Red Sox are only 4½ games out of first place in the AL East with 156 games left. And they picked up two of baseball’s top position players in the offseason, first baseman Adrian Gonzalez and left fielder Carl Crawford.

Gonzalez has been the lone bright spot in the batting order with a

.350 average, one homer and five RBIs. Only two other players — Ortiz and Dustin Pedroia — are batting above .250, and the Red Sox have been outscored 38-16 in sweeps at Texas and Cleveland. But with a 10-game homestand, they’re optimistic they can turn that around.

“We’ve got great fans on our side,” said Youkilis, who is batting .133 with one RBI and two hits in 15 at-bats. “We thrive on them and they thrive on us. ... We’ve got a good team. We’ve just got to get out of this little funk we’re in.

“We’re frustrated as hell because we never thought we’d be here, but we are here, so you’ve got to deal with it.”

The Yankees enter the series with a 4-2 record. But they know that one week, no matter how well or poorly a team plays, hardly indicates how it will finish the season.

“Who cares if they’re 0-6 or 6-0?” New York reliever Joba Chamberlain said. “They’re still a talented ballclub. And we know that. We’re not looking at their record. We’re looking at the talent

they’re putting on the field that we’re going to have to face. We’re not playing their record. We’re playing their team.”

Derek Jeter put it more simply: “I think a lot of times people pay too much attention to the first week of the season.”

Still, that week has been filled with poor hitting and starting pitching, fielding and running gaffes and relievers who can’t find the plate.

“We’ve got to put ourselves in a better position that when somebody does slip, it doesn’t cost us the chance for a game,” Francona said.

The miserable start is disappointing to Francona, but it hasn’t wiped out his sense of humor. On Thursday morning, when the Red Sox were still 0-5, he was asked if the team can feed off the Fenway crowd’s energy.

“I had 12 pieces of bacon this morning,” he said. “I’m going to feed off that.”

Now they’re 0-6 — two pieces for every loss.

“This,” Francona said, “hasn’t been a real kind road trip.”

Blazers topple Jazz 98-87, reclaim sixth place in West

EASTERN CONFERENCE

The Associated Press SALT LAKE CITY — Gerald Wallace is getting more comfortable in his role with the Portland Blazers.

After more than six years in Charlotte, Wallace further established himself as one of the Blazers’ key players, scoring 29 points in a 98-87 win over the Utah Jazz on Thursday night.

“The guys want me to shoot. The coaches want me to shoot,” Wallace said after scoring 20 points in the second half as the Blazers wore down the injury-hampered Jazz, who had only nine healthy players.

“It’s hard coming into a new system. You don’t know your role as you try to find your routine. I didn’t want to step on any toes, but the guys said to just relax and play and have fun,” Wallace said.

The veteran forward was repeatedly open in the same spots on the court.

“Gerald was big for us. Gerald knows his role and he knows where his shots are going to come from and he’s ready to knock them down,” LaMarcus Aldridge said.

Nicolas Batum added 21 points and the win moved Portland (4633) into sole possession of the sixth spot in the Western Conference.

The Blazers are a half game ahead of New Orleans.

“We have a lot of people who can put the ball in the basket and you can’t hide any defenders on us. We have five scorers on the court almost all the time,” said Wesley Matthews, who had 18 points.

The loss assured Utah (37-42) of its second losing season in 28 years.

The Jazz were 26-56 in 2004-05, the only other time they finished below .500 since 1982-83.

Devin Harris, who returned after missing five games with a strained hamstring, tied a career best with five three-pointers and led the Jazz with 26 points, but he also committed seven turnovers.

“It felt good. I obviously got off to a good start,” Harris said. “But we gave up too many layups off of

Masters Continued from D1 They had a two-shot lead over a pair of South Koreans, former PGA champion Y.E. Yang and K.J. Choi.

Mickelson and Woods, with six green jackets between them in the last decade, blended in more than they stood out.

Woods played in the morning in only a moderate breeze, ideal conditions for scoring. But he lost his way starting the back nine with consecutive bogeys, made only one birdie on the par 5s and had to settle for a 71.

“I would rather be where Rory’s at,” Woods said. “But, hey, it’s a long way to go. We have a long grind ahead of us. The temperature is supposed to warm up and I’m sure they will start making the pins a little more difficult as the week goes on. I’m right there in the ballgame. I’m only six back, and as I said, we’ve got a lot of golf ahead of us.”

Mickelson was far more erratic off the tee, hitting tee shots into the Georgia pines and spraying one so far into the azaleas left of the 13th fairway that he looked like he was on an Easter egg hunt as he searched for his ball. He hit only four fairways, last in the field of 99 players.

As always, his superb chipping kept him from dropping shots on three straight holes around the turn. His only mistake came on the 18th, when he hit his approach into the gallery left of the green and chipped too hard, missing a 7-foot par putt for a 70.

“I scrambled well today, but I let four or five birdie opportunities slide,” Mickelson said. “I’m going to have to capitalize on those opportunities to go low. I didn’t shoot myself out of it, but I didn’t make up ground on the field like I wanted to.”

The top Americans on the leaderboard were Matt Kuchar and Ricky Barnes at 68. Another shot back was a group that included former U.S. Open champion Geoff Ogilvy, Brandt Snedeker and Sergio Garcia, who is slowly showing signs of a revival.

The good news for McIlroy was not only a great start to the Masters, but a great forecast.

Last summer in Scotland, the freckle-faced kid from Northern Ireland followed his record-ty-

Each time the Jazz looked to make a run in the second half, they made costly mistakes. Then on three consecutive plays in the fourth quarter, the Jazz were stagnant until forcing

ing 63 with an 80 when he got caught up in the blustery conditions of St. Andrews. He eventually rallied for a tie for third at the Open, and hopes he gained some experience.

“Obviously at the time, I was very disappointed to come off the course and shoot 80 after shooting 63,” McIlroy said. “But looking back on it, it was a very valuable lesson in my development as a golfer. It’s possible that I can go out and shoot another 65, but I know that it’s also very likely that I’m not going to do that.

“So if I do find myself in a bit of trouble, I’m going to have to stick in there, grind it out.”

This was not a day to grind, not with weather that only enhanced the garden beauty of Augusta, and not with hole locations along the front nine that allowed for such good scoring.

Retief Goosen started out by holing an 8-iron from 161 yards on the opening hole, the first player in 24 years to make eagle on the first hole of the Masters.

He reached 5 under at the turn, only to get tripped on the back nine for a 70.

McIlroy fired off three straight birdies starting the par-5 second, the best of those a pitch from just outside 60 yards that skipped and stopped a few feet from the hole at No. 3. He hit 7-iron just left of the pin on No. 9, then picked up another birdie on the 11th with a 5-iron that flirted with the pond left of the green and settled 8 feet away.

Two more birdies followed, and McIlroy had another stellar round in the majors. Despite being only 21 — he is the youngest player atop the leaderboard after one round at the Masters — he already has six rounds at 68 or better in the majors on some of the tougher courses, from Carnoustie to Bethpage Black to Whistling Straits.

“Sounds simple,” he said. “But it wasn’t.”

Quiros was in the final group of the day, and it was as explosive as there is in the game. He was joined by Gary Woodland and Jhonattan Vegas, two Augusta newcomers who qualified in recent months with their first PGA Tour wins — more examples of a shift toward youth, two players built more for football and basketball than for golf.

They all bash it, and did they

“When you are struggling, everyone is concerned with their points,” Utah coach Ty Corbin said. “If you’re not making points, there are

ever put on a show.

They combined to make 10 birdies and two eagles over the last six holes, enough reason for the gallery to stick around even as Woods was long gone and Mickelson was on the practice range in the fading sunlight.

Woodland, who played Division II basketball for one year, played his final six holes in 6-under par for a 69. Vegas, such an exciting young player that his colleagues call him “Johnny Vegas,” three-putted for bogey from 12 feet on the 18th for a 72.

Augusta still showed some teeth if players got too careless.

PGA champion Martin Kaymer, the No. 1 player in the world, struggled again at the Masters and shot a 78. He has never made the cut, and it looks as though this might be another short week. Lee Westwood, runner-up to Mickel-

other things you can do to help.”

Paul Millsap’s jumper brought the Jazz within four, but then the Blazers surged past the Jazz for a 79-64 lead on Wallace’s free throws with five seconds left in the third quarter.

Millsap scored 19 points and Al Jefferson and Gordon Hayward each had 10, but the Jazz dropped their ninth game in the past 10.

Hayward had the best game of his rookie season Tuesday when he scored a career-high 22 points and led the Jazz to their first road win over a Lakers team with Kobe Bryant on the court in more than a decade. But Hayward was a non-factor against the Blazers.

“We’d try and run something, and they didn’t let us,” Hayward said.

Meanwhile Wallace, who came to Portland in a midseason trade, stayed on a roll. He has scored in double figures in nine consecutive games and got 40 against Oklahoma City on March 27.

“I just play with the flow, especially with this team. It’s a lot easier.

In Charlotte, I had to be the spark. I had to be the one getting us going offensively,” Wallace said.

Brandon Roy added 11 points for Portland.

Matthews said before the game that the Blazers need to “hit the postseason with a head of steam” and the Blazers led start to finish against the Jazz to start them in the right direction.

“We’re getting better and we’re finding a rhythm as we head to the postseason,” Aldridge said.

The Bulls’ 17th win in 19 games put them four games up on Boston and Miami with four to play and eliminated the Heat from getting the No. 1 seed.

The Celtics, who play the Heat on Sunday, still have a mathematical shot, albeit a remote one.

son last year, opened with a 72.

“It’s not my game at the moment,” Westwood said. “If you can’t hole it out from 4 feet, you’re going to struggle.”

No one struggled more than Henrik Stenson, who shot an 83.

Quiros used to know that feeling. He made his Masters debut with rounds of 78-75 two years ago, and the lanky Spaniard couldn’t do better than 75 in two rounds last year. So when he came to the course, he only checked the scores of his countrymen.

As for that 65 that McIlroy posted?

“You have to see, this is my third appearance, and my best score was 75,” Quiros said. “I cannot be pretending to see the leaderboard. It would be stupid.”

But he made up ground quickly with his length, making birdie

Ski patrol candidates at Mt. Bachelor train with a tail rope that is used for steep or icy rescue scenarios.

Patrol Continued from D1 And the ski patrol is looking for a few snowriders with that desire. A ski evaluation for those interested in joining the ski patrol is scheduled for Sunday, April 17, at Mt. Bachelor ski area. Participants — who can be alpine skiers, telemark skiers or snowboarders — must demonstrate the ability to ride any terrain on the mountain.

The ski patrol typically selects 15 or so men and women from the season’s evaluations to move forward into Outdoor Emergency Care (OEC) training, which is conducted two nights per week from August through November. Then, the candidates move onto the mountain to train with toboggans (used to transport injured skiers) and patrol with a partner for much of their first season.

“We’re very highly trained when it comes to emergency skills,” says Bend’s Rob Weiss, 50, the candidate training director for the Mt. Bachelor National Ski Patrol. “You have to have that desire to ramp up your skills. There’s so many people that want to participate, but because of the time constraints of that first year, they just can’t do it.”

About a dozen new patrollers are added to the volunteer staff each year. Once they make it through the challenging first season, each patroller is required to work 18 days per season, all on weekends. They receive a free season pass.

Like most other volunteer National Ski Patrol groups at large ski resorts in the United States, the Mt. Bachelor organization works in cooperation with the resort’s paid patrollers.

The National Ski Patrol (NSP) was founded in 1938 and now boasts nearly 30,000 members serving more than 600 patrols.

The Bachelor NSP is divided into three disciplines: alpine, nordic and auxiliary. Nordic patrollers provide emergency and medi-

“It’s a high-velocity sport.

There is a propensity for impact and trauma, and we all know it. We all have war stories, and we all learn from each other’s experiences.”

— Bend’s Rob Weiss, candidate training director for the Mt. Bachelor National Ski Patrol cal coverage on Bachelor’s nordic trails, while auxiliary patrollers provide medical services in the two aid rooms at Mt. Bachelor.

Currently, the greatest patrol need at Bachelor is for alpine.

“Honestly, in Central Oregon, there’s no shortage of good skiers and riders, because we’re a few minutes away from (Bachelor),” says Bend’s David Dattke, 40, an alpine patroller and the communications director for Mt. Bachelor NSP. “They’ve skied the backside, they’ve skied the west bowls from Northwest (chairlift), so they already know the mountain pretty well. You have to know exactly where you are on that mountain at all times. Because if you get a call, you have to say where you are.”

A typical day on the hill for an alpine patroller starts with the morning meeting, at which patrollers discuss weather, snow conditions and what to expect. (Only pro patrollers conduct avalanche safety work, which includes use of explosives).

Volunteer patrollers check each run for hazards exposed by the previous night’s grooming activity, Weiss says. Terrain parks are roped off, family skiing areas are marked and all signs are cleared of rime and snow.

“Once setup is good, we’re there to patrol,” Dattke says. “We’re waiting for the call. We have a radio. It’s a well-oiled machine.

When an incident happens, it’s amazing how fast there’s four oth-

er patrollers around the patient.”

Patrollers give directions, help find lost skiers, treat injured skiers and assist them off the mountain, according to Dattke. Once the lifts close for the day patrollers sweep each run to ensure all guests have made it safely to the parking lot.

Weiss says every day is different.

“We train to be ready for that worst-case scenario,” he explains.

“We know we’re ready. It’s a highvelocity sport. There is a propensity for impact and trauma, and we all know it. We all have war stories, and we all learn from each other’s experiences.

“A lot of stuff happens on that mountain.”

Dattke says the worst incidents to which he has responded are those that involve two snowriders colliding with each other.

Working on such traumatic cases, and training constantly together, forms a tight bond among the patrollers.

“We’re just a big family,” Weiss says.

“I’ve only been doing it a couple years, but some of my best friends are from the patrol,” Dattke adds.

Staton has enjoyed his own ski patrol friends for more than 50 years. He still attends patrol meetings and continues the required training each year, though he is no longer on active duty. Even in his mid-80s, he tries to ski twice a week.

“It’s grown tremendously, and the knowledge that we have now and are teaching to our incoming patrollers is so much greater than it was back then,” Staton says, comparing today’s training with the ski patrol instruction of yesteryear. “At that time, I had no training in first aid so I took a course and went on to learn a lot more (with the ski patrol), I’ll tell ya. It was the best decision I ever made in my life. It’s been a lot of fun over the years.”

HOME NINETEENTH

&

ANNUAL

GARDEN S H O W PRESENTED BY:

Continued from D1 There was already a public celebration for Niehaus’ life at Safeco Field in December and the Mariners are wearing a memorial patch dedicated to Niehaus on their uniforms this season.

Those moves were only a precursor to what will be a highly emotional pregame ceremony on tonight.

A stretch of 1st Avenue South outside of Safeco Field will be renamed Dave Niehaus Way, after the city of Seattle approved the move earlier this week. Popular Seattle rapper Macklemore will perform “My Oh My,” his tribute song to Niehaus penned in the days after his death.

Marilyn Niehaus, Dave’s widow, will throw out the first pitch surrounded by her family. Her husband threw out the first pitch when Safeco Field opened in 1999.

Aside from the Niehaus celebration, the Mariners will honor last season’s American League Cy Young Award winner Felix Hernandez, who is only the second Seattle pitcher to win a Cy Young, and celebrate the Gold Gloves earned by right fielder Ichiro Suzuki and center fielder Franklin Gutierrez.

And they’ll be trying to snap an early four-game losing streak that included a disappointing sweep at the hands of AL West favorite Texas and show their home fans this isn’t the same Mariners team that slogged through a lackluster 101-loss season a year ago.

Seattle will play 13 of its next 17

A Golden Glove award to be presented to center fielder Ichiro Suzuki at the team’s home opener sits atop a dugout as workers prepare the Seattle Mariners’ ballpark Wednesday in Seattle. at home.

“It’s a new team, a new staff, a lot of new guys,” first baseman Justin Smoak said. “We’ve got a different heartbeat as a team than we did last year. It’s something to be excited about.”

Through the first six games, Seattle’s offense remains the biggest issue — albeit an expected problem. In three of the past four games, Seattle scored three runs or fewer, wasting strong pitching performances by Michael Pineda and Hernandez in the past two outings.

Hernandez was hurt in Wednesday’s 7-3 loss to Texas by three errors — two by second baseman Jack Wilson — along with Seattle’s struggling offense.

The Mariners have a team batting average of .233 and have just two home runs through the first week.

Seattle should know more today about the status of backup catcher Adam Moore, who left Wednesday’s loss to Texas with a right leg injury. Moore was scheduled for an MRI on Thursday.

If Moore is out for an extended time, it could have a trickle-down effect as the likely replacement, Josh Bard, is not on the 40-man roster and some juggling would be needed to clear a roster spot for him.

Today will also be a reunion for Wedge, who is facing off against his former team, with the Indians coming off a sweep of AL East favorite Boston.

“Everybody has to understand that we’re going to continue to get better,” Wedge said. “The way our kids continue to compete, it will eventually show itself. I think our fans are going to appreciate that.”

Play, learn, grow Early years crucial to childhood brain development

By Anne Aurand The Bulletin

Correction In a story headlined “Family photo session will benefit shelter,” which appeared Friday, April 1, on Page E1, incorrect information was included about an April 16 fundraiser for Grandma’s House.

Photographer Natalie Stephenson will only take photos of children and pregnant women at the event.

The Bulletin regrets the error.

B E ST B E T S FOR FAMILY FUN

ow should adults prepare children for school, for work, for love — for life?

Here are some points to remember: •It starts in the womb.

•Rocking has a purpose deeper than putting a baby to sleep.

•Brain cells that aren’t used early get pruned.

•Free-form, creative play in children sets the foundation for academic achievement.

Local experts on childhood brain development, psychology, education and literacy will speak about these topics in a free forum Tuesday night at the Tower Theatre, a featured event in the Week of the Young Child.

One of the presenters, Deborah Coehlo, said a person’s foundation is built before he or she turns 3.

“That’s when we develop pathways between neurons (in the brain),” she said. “We (adults) choose

H

how those pathways form. We have the potential in every brain to form pathways that are calming and predicable and safe. Or we can create chaotic pathways.”

Coehlo is a behavioral developmental specialist for Juniper Ridge Clinic in Bend and an assistant professor of human development and family sciences at Oregon State University-Cascades Campus.

Rhythm of life Starting at about five months into a pregnancy, when fetuses develop hearing, parents can start teaching them. If the mother listens to music, or poetry read aloud, the baby begins to understand rhythm. “They don’t have a language center, but they learn rhythm and tones.” This, Coehlo said, is helpful later as a child learns to read.

So you want to be a children’s performer

Puppets, including Sweetie Pie (from left), Brad Spit and Baby. com, play a big part in Mary Lou Anderson’s life. “I can’t go into a preschool without her,” she said of Baby.com.

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — “Let’s start with the Great Depression,” says Mary Lou Anderson.

Anderson was a youngster during those hard times, and she particularly remembers this: a serious lack of toys.

Children often made do with everyday objects — and their imaginations. Amazing what can be conjured up with some bobby pins and crazy voices, she says.

Her grandmother led the way. For fun and to highlight healthy eating, she drew funny faces on vegetables and spun impromptu yarns.

“She was a great storyteller,” Anderson said. “That got me started.”

You may recall Anderson if you are of a certain age and are from Kansas City, Mo. She was Mother Nature — green toga, garland in her hair — on “41 Treehouse Lane” and then “The Mother Nature Show” in the 1970s and early ’80s.

Garvey Scott Kansas City Star

Here’s the path that led Anderson, now 81, to her own brand of creative performance and puppetry.

Anderson majored in theater at Denison University in Ohio, where Hal Holbrook was a couple of years ahead of her: “My only claim to

fame.” After college, she married her high school sweetheart, Bill Anderson, whose service in the U.S. Air Force took them to places such as Mineral Wells, Texas, and Tripoli.

LIVING WITH CHILDREN

Parent wonders how to treat child wanting constant attention

By John Rosemond McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Q:

My 5-year-old daughter relies on me far too much. All through the day, she asks me to do simple things for her like get her a glass of water or help her put on her shoes — things she is able to do for herself. If I don’t cooperate, she begins to whine, then cry. It’s driving me crazy.

Another thing she wants is for me to watch her play. She just can’t seem to be alone or entertain herself. At bed, for example, she wants me to lie down with her until she falls asleep. It never ends.

A counselor informally suggested that she’s desperate for my attention because the new baby is taking up a lot of my time, but this was going on before he was born. Can you help me get a life for myself again?

E2 Friday, April 8, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

Mother spills son’s secret, is renounced in return Dear Abby: My son has refused to speak to me ever again because his girlfriend asked me if he had another child from a previous relationship. I didn’t think it was right to lie to her, so I told her the truth about his daughter. My son called me yesterday and told me I was “dead to him” and he never wants to see me again. I feel so guilty having betrayed him.

I’m not sure how to make amends with my son. Abby, can you help me?

— Sad Mom in Ohio Dear Mom: Your son may have preferred his girlfriend be kept in the dark about his daughter, but if the girlfriend didn’t have some strong suspicions, she would not have raised the subject with you.

Frankly, I admire you for telling the truth and not going along with your son’s deception. I’m not sure how you should “make amends” with your son. He is the one who should be making amends with you. His lack of character is lamentable.

Dear Abby: My wife has been out of work for four months. Last week she applied for a job at a loan office. During the interview, she learned it was a payday loan operation, and she would be expected to get people to sign up for loans they could not afford.

This goes against our principles. We have seen family members caught in payday loan schemes that buried them in debt, and we find the whole industry to be immoral and abhorrent.

My wife is currently receiving unemployment compensation.

One of the rules of unemployment is, if a company offers you work, you must accept it. She said if she knew what the position entailed, she would not have applied. Now she is terrified she may be offered a position in a business she finds repugnant, but she may not be able to decline the offer. What can she do?

Please answer fast!

— Stuck For An Answer in Kansas City

DEAR ABBY Dear Stuck For An Answer: Your wife should contact the payday loan company and tell them she is not interested in the position before she gets an offer.

That way, she won’t be breaking any rules, and the company can hire a willing applicant.

Dear Abby: I have an issue regarding my 18-year-old son, “Jake.” His father and I divorced several years ago — amicably for the most part. Since then, and even before, Jake has had emotional problems.

My son makes up stories about himself. On one of his online social network sites he has been talking about a vehicle he doesn’t own. He even invited a friend to go four- wheeling with him in his nonexistent vehicle. This is only one of many lies Jake has told.

When I call him on it, he admits it but says it’s “no big deal.”

Abby, people believe what my son is telling them. What is going on, and what can I do?

— Caring Parent, Littleton, Colo.

Dear Caring Parent: Your son may lie in order to impress others, or be so emotionally troubled that he can’t tell the difference between what he fantasizes and what is real. I assume that because Jake has had emotional difficulties for some time that he has been under the care of a therapist. If so, contact the therapist and explain what’s going on. If Jake doesn’t have a therapist, find one. Perhaps an intervention will help Jake. If the lying persists, your son will become increasingly isolated as it gets out that no one can believe a word he says.

‘Divorce Court’ judge stands her ground

By Luaine Lee

‘Divorce Court’

McClatchy-Tribune News Service

PASADENA, Calif. — She may be the presiding judge on the syndicated show “Divorce Court,” but Lynn Toler had to pass more than the bar to get there.

She and her sister were expected to be doctors. “It was never ‘if,’ it was ‘when’ you become a doctor. I didn’t know there was an option other than that,” she said.

“I went to Harvard because that was expected and that’s just how we did business.

My sister went to Dartmouth because that was expected.

She’s a doctor. I remember the conversation with my parents when I told them I wasn’t going to be a doctor.

You would’ve thought I shot the pope. It was such a small price to pay for a lifetime of I do what I want. It wasn’t a great vision on my part; I knew nothing else,” she said.

In fact, she spent her years at Harvard goofing off, quit one major in college and was about to leave another when her dad reminded her that if she faded out of graduate school, so did the money.

She grew up with a brilliant but bipolar father whose condition was worsened by his drinking and a mother who cleverly managed his mental illness.

Toler’s dad was a lawyer, so after she quit pre-med, she switched from English to the law. “The dumbest thing I ever did was go to Harvard and learned nothing. I never went to class. I was partying.

I apologized to my parents because they paid for it. I went there and did nothing. Later I studied for the bar and am a quick study.”

But she didn’t like law school.

“I was a very shy person and don’t like to argue,” she said. “I thought, ‘What am I

Judge Lynn Toler presides over the syndicated show “Divorce Court.” doing here?’ I was a great litigator because I can convince people of things. But I was a terrible negotiator. Don’t push and shove very well. I think I was a good judge because I’m relatively intelligent, I’m people-smart, I can read people fairly well, I knew the law and I gave a damn.”

Toler was 33, out of school when she went to work for a law firm. “I was married, had a husband with four stepsons, I’d just had a baby and was working 60 hours a week at a law firm, and I was about to blow my brains out,” she said.

“The judge in the city retired after 18 years and I said, ‘The courthouse is 16 blocks from my house, judges set their own schedule. That’s my job. I’m going to get that job.’ ” She went door-to-door with her 10-month-old son on her hip campaigning for the job in

municipal court in Cleveland Heights, Ohio.

After three recounts Toler won by a measly three votes.

She spent eight years presiding over minor cases there. But she found it disheartening. “I took work home with me. ‘Did I sentence him right?’ ‘He’s going to get out, is he going to hurt her?’

My husband started calling me the Night Stalker because I’d be up all night walking around the hallways thinking. If you take your job seriously you worry about that kind of thing.”

One day she found a whileyou-were-out pink slip on her desk. It was from 20th Television asking her to do a law show. “A month later I had a job for ‘Power of Attorney.’ It didn’t last very long. Then I was a retired judge working by assignment for five years, and then when the ‘Divorce Court ‘slot opened they

called and said, ‘Can you come?’

I said, ‘Sure.’ ” Toler’s never been divorced but admits even her marriage has endured its tough times. “We came to a crossroads two years ago, and I came into the marriage a frightened person. He came into the marriage an angry person. I spent my whole marriage trying not to have an argument. One day in the bathroom I decided I wasn’t giving in. And it was 18 months of the rockiest road I’ve ever traveled,” she sighs.

“And my mother came into town, looked at me and said, ‘At the end of the day, Lynn, you’re too old for this (stuff). You taught him he should always get his way. That was your doing. What you need to do now is to re-educate him.’ She said, ‘He’s not happy’ ...

“And she told me what to do.

‘Don’t get excited. Don’t cry.

Stand your ground. State your case. Respect his position but respect your position.’ And we got through it.”

Continued from E1 What the counselor told you is hogwash. As you said, this problem was going on before the new baby came on the scene. Even if that was the problem, the solution is not to give your daughter more attention, wearing yourself to the nub in the process; the solution is to insist that she accept that she is not and will never be deserving of being the center of anyone’s attention.

Contrary to the prevailing myth, children who act “starved” for attention have received too much, not too little. They’ve come to depend on being the center of attention, and the more the Look-at-Me Beast is fed, the

Johnny Depp is the voice of the title character, center, in the animated film “Rango.”

What it’s about: Guy hits the Easter Bunny with his car and must help him recover and realize his rock ’n’ roll dream.

The kid attractor factor: A smart-mouthed, rock-drumming animated bunny, and James Marsden, the goofy prince from “Enchanted.”

Good lessons/bad lessons: Sooner or later, you will meet your destiny.

Violence: A car accident, mild cartoon peril.

Language: Disney clean Sex: Nary a hint Drugs: Nary a whiff Parents’ advisory: Harmless, this blend of animation and live action is aimed at the very youngest filmgoers. Suitable for all ages.

Attention

The Family Movie Guide should be used along with the Motion Picture Association of America rating system for selecting movies suitable for children. Only films rated G, PG or PG-13 are included in this weekly listing, along with occasional R-rated films that may have entertainment value or educational value for older children with parental guidance.

bigger it gets and the more demanding it becomes. Children who don’t get enough attention usually withdraw into their own little windowless worlds.

Like most mothers, you obviously feel that if you make a decision that upsets your child, it must have been a bad one. The fact is children don’t know what they truly need. They only know what they want, and they believe that what they want they deserve to have, and no one has a right to deny them.

That belief defines a child, in fact; therefore, lots of the children in question are much older than 21. It takes some people a long time to grow up.

You can help your daughter begin growing up by making a list of everything she wants you

to do for her, including watch her play, fetch her water, put on her golden slippers (as you kneel in front of her), lie down with her, and so on. Take your time. Just put a sheet of paper on the kitchen counter and whenever she asks you to do something (unnecessary) for her, write it down.

After a week, you should have a list of at least 30 items.

Post the list on the refrigerator.

Bring her to the list and read it to her. Tell her that you spoke to a doctor who told you that she’s much too old to be asking her mother to do these things for her.

The doctor said that every week, she has to cross off two items on the list. Her choice. You no longer do the items she crosses off.

The doctor said so. Call it the “I’m-Growing-Up List.” Tell her,

“This is how children grow up. They begin doing things for themselves!”

If, after she crosses off an item, she asks you to do it for her, just take her to the list and say, “I can’t do that for you anymore. You crossed it off because you’re growing up!” After a few weeks, you’ll probably notice that she begins doing even things she hasn’t yet crossed off. You’ll also notice that she’s proud of her new accomplishments.

What fun growing up can be! How liberating for both parent and child!

Family psychologist John Rosemond answers parents’ questions at www. rosemond.com.

Rating: PG for some mild rude humor and mischief.

What it’s about: The Wimpy Kid makes his way through seventh grade and a rough-and-tumble relationship with his teenage brother.

The kid attractor factor: It’s the second movie based on the popular and funny Jeff Kinney books, with tweens and teens as its stars.

Good lessons/bad lessons: “Don’t be good at something you don’t want to do” and other teen slacker credos.

Violence: None to speak of.

Language: “Holy moly!” is about as rough as it gets.

Sex: Teen and tween flirtation, an underwear gag.

Drugs: None.

Parents’ advisory: Aimed squarely at the middle-school and younger set, it’s perfectly fine for 6 and older.

‘Mars Needs Moms’ Rating: PG for sci-fi action and peril.

What it’s about: A little boy stows away on a spaceship when his mother is abducted by aliens.

The kid attractor factor: Animation by the “Polar Express” folks, based on a Berkeley Breathed

kids’ book.

Good lessons/bad lessons: Words can wound, and there is no limit to a mother’s love.

Violence: Alien laser guns and the threat of asphyxiation in the airless vacuum of space.

Language: Disney clean.

Sex: A little interspecies flirting, and blushing.

Drugs: None.

Parents’ advisory: More plotheavy than jokey, this one may be tough on the 6-and-younger set but perfectly engrossing for 7 and older.

‘Red Riding Hood’ Rating: PG-13 for violence and creature terror, and some sensuality.

What it’s about: Red Riding Hood’s medieval village is menaced by a big bad WEREwolf.

The kid attractor factor: Young people in lust in a fairy tale from the director of “Twilight.”

Good lessons/bad lessons: “Our methods of pleasing God are sometimes ... flawed.”

Violence: Slashings, stabbings and a hand is bitten off.

Language: Fairy-tale friendly.

Sex: Interrupted.

Drugs: Ale and wine.

Parents’ advisory: Aimed at that “Twilight” demographic, this is just as sexual, has a bit more blood plus a little swordplay — OK for 13 and older.

‘Rango’ Rating: PG for rude humor, language, action and smoking.

What it’s about: A pet lizard escapes into a desert town where the other varmints make him the sheriff.

The kid attractor factor: It’s animated — and the voices are provided by Johnny Depp, Abigail Breslin and others.

Good lessons/bad lessons: “People have to believe in something. Right now, they believe in you.”

Violence: Animated mayhem, a hawk is dispatched, gunplay.

Language: Some profanity — not much, but more than you’re used to in a children’s cartoon.

Sex: Heavens, no.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY for Friday, April 8, 2011: This year, opportunities keep tumbling into your path. On one side is a spoiled little kid who feels the power and abundance of these opportunities. On the other side is an adult who makes strong, solid choices. Which is your path? Communication is highlighted as you open new doors and go through them. Know what you want. Know your expectations. Are they in sync? If you are single, you could have a lot of fun dating, though you might not always be in love with this or that person! If you are attached, the two of you can be found cooing more often together!

GEMINI understands you well.

The Stars Show the Kind of Day You’ll Have: 5-Dynamic; 4-Positive; 3-Average; 2-So-so; 1-Difficult ARIES (March 21-April 19) HHHH The path of abundance easily leads to excess. You will note that that also might be true of emotions.

You cannot help but feel a little like a race car at the starting line as Friday ends. Let’s hope for the same thing as Monday begins. Tonight: Making the most of every minute.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) HHH You might be surprised by everything that goes on around you.

Though you would like to join in, perhaps the sure bet is to observe.

Be happy for those around you while remaining seductively more stable. Tonight: Join a pal. (TGIF!) GEMINI (May 21-June 20) HHHHH You hit your month’s power days. Can anyone stop a ball rolling downhill? Yes, and you could hit a bump or two. The likelihood is

that in your frame of mind, you will bounce away, never to think about that incident again. Why should you?

Tonight: On a roll, so to speak.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) HHH You might want to try another approach or do something vaguely different. Your path seems convoluted to some, but what counts is you know why you are heading this way. Stay true to yourself, but don’t expect a roaring crowd behind you. Tonight: Play it low-key.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) HHHH Emphasize the collective rather than the individual. You will find many answers and responses. You will clear a mini hurdle because of your demonstrative manner and dynamic thinking. Tonight: Just be yourself.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) HHHH You make your way best by assuming responsibility for everything that involves you. You don’t always land as you might like to, but you’ll gain a sense of relief from the fact that you did your very best and gave it 100 percent.

Tonight: Follow through on a call first.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) HHHHH You sway from one opinion to another. Though some people might see this seesaw activity as a problem, it only reflects your ability to grasp and incorporate both sides of an issue. Find the midpoint or discover why both sides might be right. Tonight: Split as fast as humanly possible.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21) HHHH The best approach might be to let someone else lead and show his or her true colors. You don’t always think you are right and, by all means, have no reason to believe otherwise.

Of interest is another approach to

the same issue. Tonight: Grow from differences rather than criticize them.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21) HHHH Listen to the other side, and you might be delightfully surprised by what is going on behind the scenes.

Your laughter comes once you clearly understand where another person is coming from. Though you two are so different, you are so much alike. Tonight: Go along with a loved one’s idea of fun!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) HHHHH Your ability to get the job done is sometimes abused by others. Please note the unfinished projects that surround people’s work as they leave for the weekend.

Remember, it is up to you to decide if you want to finish up what was another person’s responsibility.

Tonight: Do what you want.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) HHHHH Your ideas seem endless — be it work, a discussion or making plans. If your thoughts are an indication, you could trigger a lot of positive activity. You are not alone; a friend nearly begs to be a companion! Tonight: Toss yourself into the whirlwind called the weekend.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20) HHH Sometimes others expect too much from you. If need be, make it OK to vanish and work from home. Sometimes the less said the better. You might be feeling some impending changes coming on.

Tonight: Where your friends are.

E6 Friday, April 8, 2011 • THE BULLETIN

Childhood Continued from E1 When babies are born, it’s important to teach them the rhythm of life. Most mothers do this intuitively. Mothers everywhere — from African villages to New York City to Bend — automatically rock babies at about 80 beats per minute, she said.

“It’s teaching them rhythm and self-regulation,” Coehlo said. “Repetition in our life, it’s calming. It regulates emotions.

It’s security.”

The importance of rhythm extends much further: “The more predicable our circadian rhythm is — our sleep-wake cycle — the more safe we feel. If we don’t feel safe, we live in a flight-or-fight response.”

You know that armpit-tingling rush of adrenaline after a near-miss car accident? A baby who doesn’t know when he or she will be fed, warmed or put to sleep lives in that panicked state, she said. Early-life bombardment of dopamine — a chemical released during an adrenaline rush — will burn out a child’s receptor sites and the child will acquire a form of attention deficit disorder, she said.

A youngster lacking rhythm and security in the first three years of life is more likely to grow into an adult who struggles with mood regulation and selfregulation, she said. He or she will likely have explosive temper tantrums in school and be at a higher risk for depression and anxiety.

Helping a child makes sense of the world Healthy brain development requires the right prenatal and infant nutrition. Brain development relies on the ability to hear sounds in the surrounding environment. It requires physical human touch. And, it requires some sensory and interactive experiences involving a parent or caregiver.

To help a child make sense of the world, Coehlo said, “you want the parents primarily to expose the child to different experiences that will stimulate sensory perceptions. Feel the wind.

Crinkle paper.”

For a while, there was a thought that “Baby Einstein” videos could make a child a genius.

A baby would theoretically sit in front of a TV and see a picture of a cow, hear the word “cow” and learn. But the problem, Coehlo said, is that a baby needs to be interacting with an adult who reacts to the cow.

“They need to see their mom talk about a cow, be happy about a cow. A screen doesn’t do that,” she said. “If the baby gets bored and looks away, a mother can pause, and respond to that.”

It’s OK for a child to watch limited amounts of appropriate TV, she said, but only with a parent involved. Children will have questions about what they watch, and the more interactions they have, the healthier their ability to interact and socialize will be later.

Even though all the “Why?

Performer Continued from E1 Anderson put her theater degree to work at the base’s TV station in Tripoli, playing “Gracie the Good Witch.” It was 1955.

“I began to think that TV was the way to go,” she said. “I wanted to be a stand-up comedian. ... I still do. Or now maybe a sitdown comedian. I want to get a job as an 81-year-old sit-down comedian.”

Don’t put it past her.

After the military, the Andersons moved to St. Louis. They had a son, Breck, and a daughter, Nancy. Anderson honed her skills at character creation and puppetry. She performed at libraries and started a birthday party business.

“I took my one-woman show all over town,” she said. “But they had to pick me up because I didn’t drive.”

The family’s final move was to Kansas City. Her husband taught law school. She got involved in local theater. One day she heard about auditions at Channel 41 for a Saturday children’s program.

“So I put my vegetable and fruit characters into a plastic bag and went down there,” she said.

Her TV fans, now in their 30s to 50s, may still recall some of those puppets: Monica Mushroom, Anna Banana, Smarty Pants (a toilet brush), Hairy Arms, Rivet the Frog, Prudence Sprinkle Pot (a watering can) and Buffie Bunny, to name a few.

The puppets were a success, but Anderson also wanted to

Imaginative play is key to a child’s early brain development.

Thinkstock

Why? Why?” questions can be maddening for the parent of a 4-year-old, it’s helpful to remember that the inquiring mind is willing to learn and understand, setting the stage for skills like reading down the road, Coehlo said.

Brain development According to www.developing brains.org, a site recommended by one of the experts speaking in Tuesday’s forum, a baby’s brain is born with about 100 billion neurons. Between ages 2 and 16, the brain loses half its neurons, based on which are used and which are not. The brain is most “plastic,” or adaptable, in its earliest years. The number of synapses — connections between brain cells — peaks at about age 2 and remains high until age 10 or 11, when some massive pruning occurs. Life experiences up to that point tell brain cells which connections to keep and which to prune.

It’s for this reason that some European cultures encourage youngsters to choose their careers by age 12, Coehlo said.

Exposing children to various experiences early on helps them maintain related abilities later in life, she said. Children are born with the ability to speak any language. But sounds that are never heard (for example, sounds unique to the French language) will be pruned out for the youngster surrounded only by English.

“It’s wonderful to expose kids to language so they practice different sounds. At 6, more formal (language) education is great. If you wait until 13, they’ll never learn (a foreign language) without an accent.”

come out from behind the curtain once in a while. That’s how her Mother Nature character was born, an idea Chiffon margarine also hit upon in the 1970s.

Her children’s shows were on the air from 1972 to 1984, a longer run than, say, “Friends.”

Beyond the TV broadcasts, over the decades, Anderson has giggled with and taught thousands of children in appearances at the zoo and museums, at libraries and schools.

Anderson keeps learning and changing, although she hasn’t given up on fruits and vegetables — and silly voices. Whiney Piney is a plastic pineapple who fusses about everything. There’s also Washed-Out Wanda, a sponge who lost her job as a dishwasher.

And Baby.com, a baby dinosaur with dots: “I can’t go into a preschool without her.”

There’s also Floyd Foil, the Aluminum Pan Man, a takeoff on the gingerbread man. Floyd’s adventures bring him to a bad end, but he enjoys a new life through recycling.

Could she teach what she does?

“You have to know yourself and, as any performer is aware, it requires a little courage,” she said.

The courage to face an audience, yes, plus some fearlessness about the outcome.

“It’s taking a passion you have and not being afraid to try it and to fail sometimes,” she said.

“I used my childhood to become a children’s performer.

I play the same way I did as a kid.”

The same theory applies to musical instruments. A kid who doesn’t learn an instrument early will probably not become a professional pianist (although it’s not impossible.) “The pathways won’t be as strong if they don’t get exposed until their teens,” Coehlo said.

Take today’s older generations and technology: They’re typically weaker in computer skills than the younger generations that started toying with computers before they were potty trained.

As for motor skills, kids who are using both sides of the brain to activate a motion such as skipping, typically somewhere between the ages of 4 and 8, are also ready to be exposed to activities such as bike riding or skiing or soccer. As for fitness, she said, active children carry it through to adulthood. They’ll get in shape faster as adults.

Seth Pollack, a University of Wisconsin psychologist and expert on child-brain develop-

ment, has done research on children who were cooped up in cribs in orphanages in Romania and Russia in their first two years of life, and were later adopted in the United States.

Not being able to crawl and explore their environments during those first crucial years of brain development, he concluded, stunted their motor skills for the rest of their lives. Some couldn’t balance on one foot or walk on a raised beam.

Importance of play In our current culture of standards, assessments, comparisons and expectations, it’s hard sometimes to allow a child to follow his or her own, internal insights about the best way to learn and develop. Imaginative free play may be the child’s foundation for academic success.

It’s all about play, said Amy Howell, who has a doctorate in education psychology and is the

children’s musician Victor Johnson.

SATURDAY, APRIL 16 • Darkness to Light training to prevent program director and assistant professor of early childhood education at COCC. Howell sees play as a fundamental right that is challenged by today’s culture of academic pressure, screen time and TV. Parents and family members need to reclaim that right for children, she said.

“It’s not frivolous. It’s through play that children learn about their world, how to interact with other people. All their cognitive tasks come through play,” said Howell. It’s humans’ oldest and most effective learning tool.

The most important thing parents can do for their young children is to try to see the world through their eyes. Follow them on a walk. Encourage their fascination with a crack in the sidewalk. Discuss the moss pushing up through the crack.

Before kids are 8 or 9, parents have a unique opportunity to hear and observe their thought process. After that age, a child’s thinking often goes internal and it’s not as easy to know what’s going on inside the child’s head, she said.

Observing children’s fantasy play, when kids act out stories in their minds, is a window into their understanding, she said.

Often children’s play scenarios include an element of danger.

Parents might want to jump in and assure them, comfort them.

“But WAIT!” Howell insists.

“Most often, a child will bring in a source of power to that character. Maybe a magic leaf falls and makes it OK. … It’s really neat to see children working through that drama.”

That doesn’t mean parents should stay hands-off. A parent can supply dolls, silk scarves, costumes, Scotch tape or toy animals, nudging them into the

And a parent can ask questions that further the line of creative thought. For example, if the child’s scenario is that the princess needs to change out of her gown for a battle, a parent can ask: What should she use?

“Ten times out of 10, their idea would be different than ours,” Howell said. “Allow them the space to do that. … If we always jump in with the answer, we’re not allowing them to develop those (problem solving) skills.

Later, when they work through a math problem … at that point, if they’ve had play experiences in problem-solving, they’ll have the ability to think about it in a different way. They’ll be creative and flexible thinkers.”

A child must be able to understand that a stick can be a broomstick for a witch to fly on, or that a blanket can be a wizard’s cape, before he or she can understand that a collection of letters represents a sentence that describes an idea.

“Play provides the basis for representation — a critical aspect of literacy,” Howell wrote in her talking points for Tuesday’s presentation. “Play allows flexible and creative problem solving, and it affords the opportunity to explore patterns and relationships — critical skills for mathematical understanding.

Play allows the opportunity to explore materials, interactions, and reactions — critical skills in science. Through play, children learn self-regulation, the ability to use complex reasoning and self-monitoring — skills required for today’s workplace and diverse world.”

F

rom the moment guitarist Adam Aijala was approached to form a band with a group of guys who would become known as the Yonder Mountain String Band, he felt confident the quartet could make a living playing music.

“When we first started, I saw so much potential in all three of those guys,” Aijala said last week in a telephone interview. “I knew at the very least that I’d be able to pay my bills with this band, and that was about where I put my expectations. And when we started we had a big spike to go from nobody coming to our shows to like 300 people showing up, and since then it’s been slow growing, but we’re still on the up.”

Indeed. Over the past couple of years, the Yonder Mountain boys — Aijala, mandolinist Jeff Austin, bassist Ben Kaufmann and banjo man Dave Johnston — have risen to a new level of popularity. They’ve appeared on a late-night talk show, toured with Dave Matthews, sold out the 9,000-seat Red Rocks Amphitheatre and played in front of 75,000 people at the 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver, about 45 minutes southeast of where they came together at an open picking session in Nederland, Colo.

Andy Tullis / The Bulletin

Ice Cube performs Wednesday at the Midtown Ballroom in Bend. The hip-hop legend treated a sold-out crowd to a 70-minute set that featured a number of his biggest hits.

Ice Cube brings well-schooled hip-hop to Bend

I

n the days leading up to hiphop legend Ice Cube’s show Wednesday night in Bend, a few people asked me variations of essentially the same question: With a successful TV and movie career running at full speed, why is Ice Cube, 41, touring and doing rap shows in 2011?

About 15 minutes into Wednesday’s show, the man himself answered.

“I will never stop rapping,” Cube said just before launching into his 1993 hit “Check Yo Self.”

“I started this gangsta s--- and I’ma finish this gangsta s---.”

There’s little argument about the former; Ice Cube — born O’Shea Jackson — is indeed a gangsta-rap pioneer. Maybe the gangsta-rap pioneer.

As for the latter, well, doubt the man at your own risk. Even 20 years removed from his most vital work, Cube still delivers a strong, entertaining live show, if not necessarily exciting, innovative new hip-hop.

Which is good because a whole bunch of people are still hungry, it seems, to see Ice Cube in 2011. I was curious how he would draw, but early in the week, it became obvious there was significant buzz around the show.

I spent 10 minutes in Ranch Records Wednesday afternoon and saw the clerk sell 15 or so tickets and take another 10 phone calls from folks making sure there were still some available.

There were, but not for long.

By showtime, the 1,000-capacity Midtown Ballroom was sold out.

After battling through a disastrously slow-moving and unorganized line situation out on the sidewalk, I got inside and quickly noted that this was the most racially diverse crowd I’ve ever seen in Bend. Plenty of white, plenty of black, and all shades in between.

The throng politely took in local acts Doc & Wyatt and Mosley Wotta before the lights dimmed at about 9:25 p.m. and Ice Cube’s voice boomed his own introduction from offstage.

From there, he led the way through a fast-paced set that covered both deep tracks and big hits from all eras of his career.

Feedback

BY BEN SALMON There was his 1994 collaboration with Dr. Dre, “Natural Born Killaz,” and “Gangsta Nation,” a song recorded by Cube’s group Westside Connection that doubled as a tribute to gangsta-rap crooner Nate Dogg, who died last month.

And there was disappointment (at least on my part) when Cube mentioned his affiliation with the seminal rap group N.W.A., but then performed “Chin Check,” a song born out of a desultory 1999 reunion that lacked some original members.

If we were going to get some

N.W.A., I was hoping for something from the classic album “Straight Outta Compton.” I can’t imagine I was the only one.

The front half of Cube’s 70-minute set was loaded with lesserknown songs from recent years, like “Life In California,” “Jack N The Box” and “Hood Mentality.”

Dropped into the middle of those was one old-school hit, a remix of “Check Yo Self” powered by the unmistakable roller-coaster hook of Grandmaster Flash’s “The Message.”

With some not-so-gentle coaxing from Cube (“throw ‘em up!”), “Check Yo Self” elicited a sea of iconic, W-shaped “west side” hand gestures bobbing across the Midtown’s floor, connected to folks of all ages, some older than the headliner and some so young they probably think of him as a movie star first.

Y onder From Page 3 Pretty soon, they’re doing a TV special and touring Europe. On Wednesday, Yonder Mountain will return to Bend (see “If you go” on Page 3).

Not bad for a quartet that creates hearty progressive bluegrass and country-rock jams and releases them on their own independent label.

These days, Aijala has adjusted his outlook accordingly.

“Now my expectations are as high as they’ll go. Whatever, I’ll take it wherever it goes,” he said.

“I don’t have any limitations. We joke about it. Maybe, like, we wouldn’t do a commercial for McDonald’s. But other than that, whatever.”

Yonder Mountain’s recent success has been fueled, no doubt, by their two most recent albums, 2006’s “Yonder Mountain String Band” and 2009’s “The Show,” both of which debuted atop Billboard’s bluegrass chart.

The two records are boundarypushers, and audible evidence of a band wriggling out of its long-established newgrass box. Not coincidentally, both also feature the

knob-twiddling skills of famed rock producer Tom Rothrock, who made his name working on early Beck and Foo Fighters records.

In a 2007 interview with The Bulletin, Aijala said Rothrock’s guidance was a major factor in Yonder Mountain’s musical stretching on the self-titled album.

“We feel that we have no — or not as many — boundaries now,” Aijala said last week, “and I think he helped us accomplish that.”

Still, the Yonder fellas aren’t content to rest on their accomplishments. In the same telephone interview, Johnston said the quartet’s compositional skills are strong and eclectic enough to allow the band to stretch whichever direction it chooses, whether bluegrassy or rockin’.

“We just have a lot of different parts about music that we love, and it just has so little to do with musical genres and more to do with what feels right for us,” he said.

And what feels right for one guy often feels right for the others, Aijala said.

“Because we’ve spent so much time together, whether we like it or not our songs tend to work with each other, even if we write them independently,” he said. “We’ll

show each other songs and they might even be a totally different mood, but they go together.

“We’ve spent the better part of 12 years with each other more than pretty much anybody else we know, including our wives,” he continued. “It isn’t often that somebody comes to the table with a song that doesn’t really go. It seems like everything kind of fits, no matter who writes it.”

Speaking of writing, the band is currently working on its next album, and both Aijala and Johnston voiced excitement about the band’s new material and current state. Aijala celebrated the band’s fully independent status, which allows it to “march to the beat of our own drum,” he said.

Johnston used a slightly less timeworn metaphor to describe Yonder Mountain String Band’s endless exploration.

“We’re kind of like a shark. We need to keep swimming and eating and devouring stuff,” he said.

“Then we’re a healthy shark, and people can come up to the cage and we can break the cage and eat them, too.”

From “Glee” and “Wedding Crashers”

Feedback From previous page The second half of the set was anchored by three older hits that highlighted the ever-present influence of slinky, synthy ‘70s funk on both Cube and West Coast rap in general.

“We Be Clubbin’” led to “Bop Gun” which led to the mega-hit “It Was a Good Day,” which predictably drew the loudest reaction of the night. (It seemed to be an especially loud, squealy crowd, too.) Cube closed with “I Rep that West,” a single from his newest

album that again sent hundreds of “W” signs into the air.

As the set jumped from song to song, two things remained constant. One was the thunderous bass, which caused my chest to ripple and my teeth to rattle, but also obscured the nuance and melody in most of the tracks.

But boy did it make heads nod.

The other constant was Cube’s presence and professionalism.

After so many years in the game, the guy has it figured out, no doubt. His delivery is still strong and aggressive, as impressive as ever.

But more importantly, he

knows what people want, and he gives it to them. He runs a tight ship, keeps things moving, plays to the crowd and, quite simply, puts on a show that may not feel like a revelation, but also won’t leave you feeling cheated.

Ice Cube’s considerable stature in hip-hop is his most valuable attribute, and he wields it masterfully.

Who knows? Maybe he will hang around long enough to have the last word.

music Head for the Hills returns to Bend Another season, another visit from Bend regulars Head for the Hills, a young quartet from Colorado who do bluegrass the right way.

Unlike so many of their contemporaries, Head for the Hills can stretch their string-band skills into jam territory, but they don’t overdo it. Instead, these four fellows keep things pretty tight and traditional, and in doing so, play some of the most tuneful modern bluegrass going.

Check out the band’s solid songs and choice chops at www .headforthehillsmusic.com.

Head for the Hills; 9 p.m. Saturday; $10 plus fees in advance at www.bendticket.com, $12 at the door; Silver Moon Brewing & Taproom, 24 N.W. Greenwood Ave., Bend; www.silvermoon brewing.com or 541-388-8331.

Bloodlust has been around for years, growing from a long-distance collaboration into one of the region’s best-known death metal bands. At their MySpace, they list bands like Suffocation, Deicide, Dying Fetus and Hypocrisy as influences. If you know those bands, then you probably have a lead on Bloodlust’s sound.

band that calls New York, Texas and San Francisco all home, will stop at Bo Restobar for a show.

OK Sweetheart’s principal figure is Erin Austin, a singer-song-

writer with a honeyed voice and a sharp ear for throwback pop music. Collaborating with members of the brilliant Texas band Midlake, Austin crafted her debut full-length album “Home,” which was released this week and sounds really terrific. You can sample much of it at www .oksweetheart.com.

OK Sweetheart’s 1960s fetish, vintage vibe and breezy melodies recall She & Him (except the songs are better). Austin’s got one of those distinctive singing voices, too, so if you listen to “Home” and think it sounds like local singer-songwriter Sara Jackson-Holman fronting a more soulful “Summerteeth”-

era Wilco, well, then you and I are on the same page.

You know a guy’s a good writer when he writes the biography on his website and you can’t stop reading it.

Bios are generally total snores, or an exercise in name-dropping.

But Jonathan Byrd’s a storyteller, and the story you get when you click “About” at www.jonathan byrd.com is a page-turner. Or a mouse-scroller. Or whatever.

Byrd carries that same narrative sense into his songs, which are generally powered by an acoustic guitar and knowing lyrics about life, death, love or all of the above. Indeed, these are folk songs, and Byrd’s a folk singer, a darn good one who won the Kerrville Folk Festival’s prestigious songwriting contest in 2003.

He’s also a regular visitor to Central Oregon, and on Saturday he’ll play the HarmonyHouse in Sisters, along with Chris Kokesh of Misty River, a fine singersongwriter in her own right.

Jonathan Byrd and Chris Kokesh; 8 p.m. Saturday, doors open 7 p.m.; $15 suggested donation; HarmonyHouse, 17505 Kent Road, Sisters; 541-548-2209.

Drive out to Kimberly to see Mia Dyson If you visit Google Maps and get directions from Torquay, Australia to Kimberly, Oregon, you’ll find out the journey is more than 13,000 miles.

That’s a long way. Heck, it feels like a long way from Bend to Kimberly, which is kind of halfway between Fossil and John Day. But Torquay is the home of singer-songwriter Mia Dyson, and Kimberly is where she’s performing Sunday, at Jody Foss’ ranch.

From previous page You may recognize Foss as the organizer of the annual summer concert series in the ghost town of Richmond. And you might know Dyson from her hit 2003 album “Cold Water,” or her stint opening for Eric Clapton, or from the fact that her dad is the well-known Australian blues performer Jim Dyson.

But what you need to know is Mia Dyson’s music, specifically, her impressive songs — a blend of roots, blues, folk and pop — and her raw, smoldering voice. Visit www.miadyson.com to sample the woman’s smooth tunes.

Then, if you’re up for a Sunday drive, check her out in Kimberly and make her feel at home, because home is a long way away.

Kevin Kinsella is known primarily as a roots-reggae master, founder of the popular East Coast band John Brown’s Body and collaborator with JBB spinoff band 10 Ft. Ganja Plant.

But in 2011, Kinsella is rolling solo, and his current tour will bring him to The Annex Saturday night. There, he’ll no doubt show off some of his new album “Great Design,” which finds Kinsella mixing a bit more of the acoustic rock ’n’ soul into his reggae blend, a la Jack Johnson and his ilk.

“Great Design” won’t officially be out until later this year, but Kinsella’s a generous guy, so he’s giving away a few tracks at www.kevinkinsellamusic.com.

Misner & Smith brings Americana to portello The fine Saturday-night concert series at portello winecafe in Northwest Crossing features mostly local artists, but occasionally, an out-of-town act that’s worth a second listen.

That’s the case this weekend as the cozy wine bar welcomes the folksy Americana sound of Misner & Smith, a San Francisco-based duo that injects a little more twang into their folk than most folkies you hear these days.

Megan Smith (bass/mandolin) and Sam Misner (guitar) specialize in strong songwriting and textured two-part harmonies, and the result is a sound that is somehow both old-time and modern. Together since 2004, the duo is on tour supporting their third album, “Live at the Freight & Salvage.”

music releases Steve Martin & the Steep Canyon Rangers RARE BIRD ALERT Rounder Records Bluegrass music is hip these days. Or at least the bluegrass music tent is now large enough to cover some very hip music.

For proof, look no further than Steve Martin’s second Rounder album with the Steep Canyon Rangers. The first, 2009’s “The Crow: New Songs for the FiveString Banjo,” won a Grammy.

And “Rare Bird Alert” probably will as well.

Martin wrote 11 of the songs and co-wrote the other two with the Rangers.

Did you ever, in your wildest dreams, think you’d hear Paul McCartney on a bluegrass album? The former Beatle sings lead on Martin’s “Best Love,” which isn’t your father’s bluegrass and probably doesn’t fit under most fans’ definition either.

But still, it’s Paul McCartney on a bluegrass album.

The Dixie Chicks handle the vocal duties on the ballad, “You.” Although the Chicks are now a country band, an earlier version of the group showcased for the

Tirtha TIRTHA Act Records The title track of “Tirtha,” a fine, slippery debut from a trio of the same name, unfolds in stages.

First comes a chiming repetition at the piano, framed in quintuple meter by Vijay Iyer. Then a burbling undercurrent from the tabla player Nitin Mitta and a background shimmer from the guitarist Prasanna, who goes on to etch a springing countermelody. Everyone contributes a brief, compelling improvisation before the arrival of a quickening coda, dark and unexpectedly brusque.

As a band, Tirtha (pronounced TEER-tha) might best be described as a jazz-informed reflec-

Caitlin Rose

International Bluegrass Music Association in 1991 as a bluegrass band.

The highlights of the album, though, are a grassed-up live version of Martin’s 1978 hit, “King Tut,” which went to No. 17 on the Billboard singles chart that year, and “Atheists Don’t Have No Songs,” a hilarious a cappella gospel-style song that concludes that “atheists just have the blues … but they do have Sundays free.”

Martin may be primarily known as an actor and comedian, but he’s a fine musician as well.

This is a great album. (Can’t find it in stores? Try www.SteveMartin.com.)

— Keith Lawrence, Owensboro Messenger-Inquirer

tion on the contemporary South Asian diaspora, with three perspectives in creative convergence.

Iyer, who was born and raised in the U.S., set out to avoid a retread of the fusions that have yoked jazz and Indian music in the past.

The sheer presence of a piano, and the percussive but circumfluent style embodied by Iyer, go a long way toward inoculating this music against that outcome.

On “Duality,” one of Iyer’s five compositions here, he digs into polyrhythmic terrain with a furious two-handed counterpoint; on “Gauntlet,” he hammers out a string of 16th notes as if to emulate a tabla, forging a fingertip alliance with Nitta.

Prasanna is the other distinguishing factor. His compositions, like “Polytheism” and “Tribal Wisdom,” convey a cosmopolitan harmonic language, rich with passing frictions. And on his prayerful ballad “Entropy and Time,” he leads a mercurial recitation, shifting tempos and trusting the others to stay with him. It’s a wakeful, radiant performance, suffused with a tricky tranquillity.

— Nate Chinen, The New York Times

OWN SIDE NOW Theory 8 Records In 2008, Nashville singer-songwriter Caitlin Rose released her debut EP, “Dead Flowers,” a wily, impressive blend of melancholy and cheek. And it was punchy, too, with some songs clocking in at two minutes or less.

What Rose has learned since then, for better and for worse, is modesty. “Own Side Now,” her first full-length effort, is more serious in every way — moodier subject matter; longer, more carefully structured songs; a more robust sense of heritage.

Maybe she’s imbibed a bit from her mother, Liz Rose, who’s written several hits with Taylor Swift, including “White Horse,” as well

Alan Hampton THE MOVING SIDEWALK Megaforce Records Alan Hampton is a singer, guitarist and bassist from New York via Houston, and he’s a songwriter who makes you reach for platitudes about “good music” — how people don’t write adventurous or honest pop songs anymore, how it’s all archness and monotony now.

He does that because he’s got loads of talent. He’s not unrelated to Sondre Lerche, the Norwegian songwriter: hale, upbeat, light-voiced, helplessly melodic, curious about the last 50 years of the pop tradition.

For what it’s worth, Hampton is a serious jazz bass player; he’s been working recently with Gretchen Parlato, Jamire Williams, Kendrick Scott and oth-

as collaborated on stark numbers like Gary Allan’s “Songs About Rain” and Chely Wright’s “Back of the Bottom Drawer.”

But really Rose, 23, is indebted to a host of older styles: lite country of the 1970s, classic country of the 1950s, insular indie rock from a few years ago. She has a sweet, knowing voice and a penchant for lyrics that are far darker. On “Shanghai Cigarettes,” Rose smokes her way to the end of a relationship. On “Own Side,” she’s still pleading for mercy: “Who’s gonna want me when/ I’m just somewhere you’ve been?”

She delivers these sentiments gently, backed by an effortlesssounding band. But she has a bigger voice than the whispers she sometimes puts forth. On “Sinful Wishing Well,” she un-

leashes it, put in the service of a masked apology for crimes of the heart. “Though I don’t know when I’ll hit the bottom, I’ve been falling for so long that I can’t tell,” she sings, like Patsy Cline learning to howl.

ers. But his first album, “The Moving Sidewalk,” has little to do with jazz.

It has to do with, say, Paul McCartney and Paul Simon and Elliott Smith; it’s emotional and precise, love songs fascinated by craft, with acoustic guitars, deep changes of rhythm and key, and soft, spacious arrangements.

There’s a preciousness here, too. For instance, “Oh My God,” with brushed drums playing a happy rhythm; single piano notes, simple on purpose; majorminor guitar fingerpicking; and a yawning, archaic harmonium.

It sounds custom-built for an Apple commercial.

But the sweet-smart-small aesthetic doesn’t dominate. In “Where Did You Go?” some dissonant, agonized-sounding guitar strumming stays near the surface; “Home to You” suggests

some deep study of Brian Wilson, another singer-bassist-songwriter. And “There’s This Side,” a real accomplishment, has the distilled beauty and gravity of late Jobim, powered by strong harmony, deep bowed bass lines and Hampton’s high, clear multitracked voice.

— Ben Ratliff, The New York Times

and his battle with his record company over its release caused him to contemplate suicide.)

But Fiasco is still a sharp lyri-

cist and doesn’t shy away from speaking his mind on songs like “Words I Never Said” (featuring a vocal assist from the suddenly everywhere Skylar Grey) and “State Run Radio.”

Meanwhile, first single “The Show Goes On” is a rewrite of Modest Mouse’s surprise pop hit “Float On,” which is a pretty leftfield choice for a hands-in-theair, hip-hop makeover.

While it may appear Fiasco is bowing to the establishment’s rules, consider it subverting the machine from the inside.

— Adam Graham, The Detroit News

Lupe Fiasco LASERS Atlantic Records Lupe Fiasco isn’t a very big fan of his new album. He’s being too hard on himself.

“Lasers,” the Chicago rapper’s third set, is his most pop-sounding album to date, with songs punctuated by big choruses and catchy R&B hooks.

It marks a departure from the socially conscious, indie-minded material from his first two albums, and at times the material shows signs of strain. (Fiasco has said the long-delayed album

Booming on

Bond Street New owner gives fresh life to Bond Street Grill in Bend

By John Gottberg Anderson For The Bulletin

W

hen Chris Nardella took over the underachieving Decoy Bar & Grill at the start of October, I wondered what sort of changes he might make to stimulate business at the restaurant, which he renamed the Bond Street Grill. Would he alter the rich, pub-like decor?

Would he give the menu a major overhaul? Would he hire new staff?

The answer, on all levels, was “no.” Yet by making only subtle modifications to the establishment that he and his father, Fran Nardella, purchased last year from Decoy founder Mark Anderson, he has given new life to the restaurant at the corner of Bond Street and Greenwood Avenue in downtown Bend.

The custom-made walnut bar, rich leather upholstery and pressed-tin ceiling that characterized the Decoy have been maintained in Nardella’s restaurant. Although new food items have revived the menu, several popular existing dishes were kept.

Even the staff is much the same, with line cook Cory Muir having been promoted to head chef and server Sanda Costello now in charge of the front of the house.

“It’s definitely a work in progress,” said Nardella, 34, who managed restaurants in Phoenix before moving to Bend.

Dozens of framed sporting prints and photographs — some of them historical, some contemporary — hang on the brick walls, surrounding a half-dozen dining booths and eight tall central tables. Seats at the long, handsome bar increase seating capacity to about 80. A friendly, reliable service staff assures that the wait for food and beverages is never long.

Pub fare After he purchased the business, Nardella said, a handful of patrons suggested that a British pub theme might befit the business he now owned.

restaurants From previous page He responded by testing several pub items — including bangers and mash, chicken pot pie, shepherd’s pie and traditional fish and chips — on a specials menu.

I ordered the bangers for lunch one day recently, and was delighted with my $10 meal. Classic English sausages were halved lengthwise, stacked tepee-style on a bed of creamy mashed potatoes, and topped with a red wine-reduction sauce. They were served with red onions, fresh kale and sliced carrots so perfectly cooked, they seemed to melt in my mouth.

“Right now, we’re really experimenting with our menu,” said Nardella. “The chicken pot pie sells really well. And our chili-lime fish tacos, with Pacific rockfish, are selling like crazy. I think lighter dishes like that will go well on the summer menu.”

I also like the baked tomato Florentine soup that the grill has added to its menu. The rich tomato-and-spinach bisque is topped with bread and two cheeses, mozzarella and asiago. Combined with a salad, it could easily be a meal in itself.

Happy-hour items, served from 3 to 6 p.m. daily and priced $5 and $6, include tempura-battered shrimp and a thin-crust Margherita pizza made with mozzarella, Pomodoro tomatoes and ribbons of fresh basil.

D inner for two When my dining companion joined me for dinner at the Bond Street, she started with a salad of mixed field greens, tossed with candied hazelnuts and blue cheese crumbles. The fresh lettuce, arugula and spinach was prepared with an intriguing house vinaigrette dressing that coupled pear with vanilla. It was excellent.

But she was especially effusive about her grilled steelhead entree. The pink fish was flawlessly cooked with a teriyaki-style Thai glaze, served with a wedge of lemon on a warm and spicy cabbage slaw with red bell peppers and chili flakes.

Event calendar

Although the menu had promised brown rice with the fish, our server apologized that the kitchen would substitute white jasmine rice instead. That was perfectly prepared as well, along with fresh carrots and asparagus spears.

I ordered a tri-tip salad, and was similarly delighted. Eight good slices of prime beef, cooked medium-rare, were presented upon leaves of baby spinach and other greens, themselves set on a bed of zesty black bean-and-tomato salsa. The entire salad was tossed with a light and creamy horseradish dressing.

Northwest ties Nardella, who was born in the Seattle area, skied at Mt. Bachelor as a youth. Although his family moved to Phoenix when he was in his early teens, he maintained his ties with the Pacific Northwest — and when the opportunity arose to purchase a restaurant in Central Oregon, he leaped at it.

“I thought it was a great location,” he said.

Now he and his wife, Katie — who often assists at the Bond Street Grill — are expecting their first child. And his restaurant is attracting a growing clientele.

Music has become a regular part of the schedule. Wednesday night acoustic jams particularly draw bluegrass-influenced musicians. Saturday-night bands bring a variety of musical styles, from jazz to rock to blues. “We’re going to keep expanding and not limit ourselves to just one kind of music,” Nardella said.

Bond Street’s owner sings the praises of Muir, his chef. “He’s really talented,” Nardella said. “I had some ideas, gave him a shot to see what he could do, and I’m very pleased.”

And as the warmer months approach, diners might expect

The menu will include freshly smoked beef brisket, barbecued chicken and pork, Gilles said, adding that he hopes to be open in June or July. The existing Brew Shop, at 2524 N.E.

Life’s

impressions Photos by Pete Erickson / The Bulletin

Norbert Volny, 64, poses with some of his artwork at Sagebrushers Art Society in Bend Monday. Volny started painting by numbers at 8, moved on to oil painting at 10 and has worked with watercolors, pastels and acrylics in recent years.

Norbert Volny displays a lifetime of art in retrospective exhibit

By David Jasper The Bulletin

W

atercolors, oils, pastels and acrylics — some 40 works in all — fill three rooms for the April show at SageBrushers Art Society gallery in Bend.

What makes that tally even more impressive is that the exhibit is a one-man show, a retrospective exhibit of paintings by longtime SageBrusher Norbert “Norb” Volny.

A reception for the exhibit will be from 2:30 to 5 p.m. Saturday at the gallery (see “If you go” on Page 13).

The show includes some of Volny’s earliest paintings, including surprisingly mature impressionist paintings done at age 10, when he was an “Army brat,” he said, in Mannheim, Germany.

(He began cutting his artistic teeth even younger than that if you count the paint-

by-numbers work he did at age 8.)

“There was a Herr Schmidt who my folks found out was teaching some kids how to oil paint,” Volny, 64, explained Monday morning at the gallery, filled with his bright and colorful landscapes, portraits and more while a class was being held in an adjacent room.

“They asked him if he’d teach me, and he said he didn’t teach any kids younger than 12. They talked him into trying me out. I ended up painting with him for about two years, twice a week about an hour and a half at a time.”

You can see some of Volny’s childhood efforts in the show, including two 1956 portraits that hang side by side.

They’re nearly identical, right down to the buttons on the subject’s shirt, although one painting is noticeably smaller than the other.

fine arts From previous page “His method of teaching was we would paint a subject together, and then he’d give me a smaller canvas to paint on my own, totally, as homework,” he said. “I didn’t realize until I was probably in college how it was really harder to paint smaller.”

He gives a lot of credit to Schmidt’s teaching methods, but Volny’s 1956 “Alpine Chalet,” painted on his own as homework in 1956, could be the work of an older, more experienced painter.

After his father left the Army, Volny painted stateside with Central California artist Thomas F. Goff, designer of the famed “Hollywood” sign (which originally read “Hollywoodland”). Goff (1890-1983) was an impressionistic landscape painter whose oils are popular with collectors today.

Volny painted with “Grandpa” Goff, as he called him, from about 1960 to 1973, when he graduated with a degree in architectural engineering from California Polytechnic State University in San Luis Obispo.

In ’73, Volny moved to Portland, where he worked as an engineer and raised a family with his wife, Joan, who’s the reason more than a few of his paintings in the show are marked “NFS” (Not For Sale).

“She puts dibs on them, and then after a while, she’ll get tired of them and I’ll put them for

sale,” he said.

Throughout his career, Volny continued to paint in his free time, which was in shorter supply when he was “working as an engineer, slaving away,” he said. His family moved to Bend in 1980, and he started his own company, Volny Engineering Inc., and did work on projects including Pine Marten Lodge at Mt. Bachelor.

Volny began painting at SageBrushers about 12 years ago, a few years before he retired. Always fascinated with other media, he began taking classes with other artists, including studying watercolors with Denise Rich.

Having painted with oils most of his life, he was used to covering “the whole thing,” Volny said, laughing. With watercolors, “you

of Needs. Psychologist Maslow theorized that once basic needs of survival and security are met, we can grow into loving, moral, creative beings.

While the themes change every couple of months, the displayed artwork rotates monthly.

Having already delved into the theme of “Survival” in February and March, the loft is now focused on “Security” and will be accepting submissions on that theme until April 20 for the May portion of the exhibit.

Submissions should include a cover letter explaining how the piece relates to the theme, brief explanation of the work’s evolution, digital image of the piece and the approximate size of the completed piece.

work more with negative space.”

In recent years, Volny has also been painting with acrylics, which likewise took some getting used to — but not because they were entirely new to him.

“When (acrylics) first came out, they were so lousy. I tried them in college, when I was about 20.

They were so chalky, the paint didn’t blend and mix right. I tried it once, and threw them away.

Now they make them where they have translucence, and you can actually mix them.”

Still, “you’ll notice that the oil is a lot more bright, for the most part, even though that’s 50-plus years old,” he said, pointing across the room at the early oils painted with Herr Schmidt.

The subject matter of works in the show is even more varied than the media used to create them: There’s a painting of three raccoons treed by his dog, another of Tahiti after a typhoon, his granddaughter sniffing a flower.

Volny paints both from photographs and en plein air (outdoors).

He explained that he was drawn to impressionism as a child.

Liking that style, “it makes it hard sometimes to paint the High Desert and keep it realistic.”

You wouldn’t guess that, seeing, for example, his lifelike painting of two cowboys in “Spring on the John Day,” painted from a photograph with a little artistic license.

The classes are being taught

“Storm @ Seal Rock” by Norbert Volny Father to a son and daughter who are also artistic, Volny said his five grandkids constitute his other hobby. But he still devotes about 8-10 hours a week to painting.

In fact, he has oils left from 1956 that are still usable, and said he plans to break them out later this year. He has no particular project in mind, just “hundreds of photographs,” he said.

“The big part of art is the social

thing. It gives you an excuse to talk to people and relate to people from all walks of life,” Volny said. “It’s something you don’t have as much of working as, say, an engineer, using the left side of your brain most of the time. This is right-sided stuff. It’s fun for a change.”

Elliot (Chris Coleman), left, and Dorian (Matthew Boston) wrestle for power while Grace (Sarah Stevens) wonders how deep the dysfunction in the Lazar String Quartet runs in Michael Hollinger’s play “Opus.”

Strung out Play reveals disharmony in string quartet

By Jenny Wasson The Bulletin

P

laying in a music group is sometimes like being in a tumultuous relationship. You rely on each other to achieve your hopes and dreams, but insecurities, jealousy and rejection can flare up at unexpected moments.

Violist-turned-playwright Michael Hollinger examines one such situation in his 2006 play, “Opus.” Centered around the fictional Lazara String Quartet, the play is “a tart and witty chamber piece about the politics and passions that threaten a classical string quartet,” according to a news release.

Presented by Portland Center Stage, the award-winning play will run April 12-May 8 at the Gerding Theater at the Armory in Portland.

Classically trained at Ohio’s Oberlin Conservatory, Hollinger draws on his understanding of the music world, not only in setting the scene but in writing his script as well. He uses beats, or short pauses, like rests in music and overlapping dialogue like musical counterpoint.

In the play, the renowned violist of the Lazara String Quartet is missing on the

eve of a high-profile performance — a live concert at the White House. As the group tries to hire a replacement, “the rehearsal room becomes a pressurecooker as passions rise, personalities clash and the players are forced to confront the ephemeral nature of their life’s work,” according to the play’s synopsis.

“Opus” originally premiered in 2006 at the Arden Theatre in Philadelphia.

It recently won the Los Angeles Drama Critics Circle award for Best New Play.

In his Portland acting debut, artistic director Chris Coleman stars as Elliot, the quartet’s volatile first violinist. The Portland cast also features Matthew Boston, Sarah Stevens, Greg Jackson and Chris Hietikko.

Ticket prices range from $31 to $58, depending on seat location and day of show. Student tickets are available for $18 and rush tickets may be available for some performances at $20. To purchase tickets and for more information, visit www.pcs.org or contact 503-445-3700.

gaming Nintendo’s new dimension Handheld system offers impressive 3-D effects, but battery life is a real issue

by the 3-D effects, and it’s a handheld that impresses.

Game Informer Magazine

A

nnounced last March, Nintendo’s 3DS has been highly anticipated by gamers the world over. Any new Nintendo handheld is big news; the company has dominated the category since the release of the original Game Boy in 1989.

While competitors from Sega to Sony have tried to make a dent in Nintendo’s market share, all have failed. The 3DS is Nintendo’s hope for staying on top of the handheld mountain.

Nintendo via McClatchy-Tribune News Service

The hardware

N intendo’s 3DS, priced at $249.99, is a good system with comfortable controls, an impressive 3-D display and cool augmented reality games. There is a big problem with battery life, however.

Priced at $249.99, the 3DS costs $100 more than the DS when it launched in 2004. For the most part, we are impressed with the unit. It’s comparable to the build quality and size of the DS Lite, the much-improved second iteration of the original DS. Overall, it feels well made and durable, a hallmark of past Nintendo devices.

The unit has a physical power button along with the traditional d-pad, face buttons, and left and right shoulders. The select, start, and home buttons are placed under the bottom screen. It also adds an analog pad, similar to that of the PSP’s. However, it feels much better; the concave pad has a rubberized finish, making it more comfortable than the PSP’s analog nub. Volume, wireless, and 3-D functions are assigned to sliders on the side of the unit.

The cartridge slot is in the same location as it was on the DS Lite. It accommodates both 3DS and DS cartridges.

The top screen, which is used for 3-D display, is a wider aspect ratio than that of the DS, measuring 3.53 inches wide by 1.81 inches high and featuring a resolution of 800 x 240 pixels. The lower

touchscreen sports a much lower 320 x 240 resolution at the same dimensions as the DS’s screen. As before, the touch functionality is accurate and responsive.

The unit also comes with a charging cradle, which lets you set it on your desktop to charge through a plastic wedge base.

This also comes in handy if you want to play at a table or desk, allowing you to keep a steady viewing angle.

The 3DS includes backand forward-facing cameras. The back-facing array is actually two stereoscopic cameras, which allow you to take 3-D pictures and save them to the included 2GB Toshiba SD memory card.

With a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels and no flash, the 2-D images aren’t on par with most cellphone cameras, let alone dedicated digital cameras.

The included stylus now fits into a slot on the top of the unit, under the hinge. It has a metallic finish, and now telescopes out to make it a bit longer than the stylus on the DS Lite.

New game releases The following titles were scheduled for release the week of April 3: • “100 Classic Games” (DS)

The tech The first time you see 3-D effects in real time without glasses is memorable. It’s an amazing bit of technology. In my play sessions, I didn’t encounter any issues with eyestrain, which some doctors in Japan had worried about prior to the 3DS’ launch. For those with more sensitive vision, you can turn down or totally disable the 3-D display at any time with the slider control.

Every game we played was fully functional in 2-D. However, I have some reservations about the 3-D viewing angle, which must be very precise. Tipping the unit in any direction, even slightly, will result in an annoying “double vision” effect.

Visually, the 3DS falls somewhere between the DS and the PSP in terms of graphical power.

It’s not a huge step forward, but the screen displays are bright and clear, and we noticed plenty of details that aren’t possible on the DS. Add in the wow factor provided

TOP 10 HANDHELD GAMES The editors of Game Informer Magazine rank the Top 10 handheld games for April: 1. “Super Street Fighter IV: 3-D Edition,” 3DS

The bottom line

2. “Tactics Ogre,” PSP

As a policy, we don’t assign a grade to a system at launch, as too much can change over time in terms of both system updates and software. Ultimately, the games will define a system. However, outside of “Super Street Fighter IV: 3D Edition” and “Ghost Recon: Shadow Wars,” nothing in the launch lineup seems like a defining or system-selling title.

The 3DS itself is a well-designed, solidly made piece of hardware. Though more expensive than past Nintendo handhelds, its build and finish look and feel high quality. The controllers, buttons, and ports are all comfortable, durable and well placed.

The real hook is the 3-D display, which is quite impressive.

The glasses-free experience delivers a great sense of depth without sacrificing clarity or resolution. To deliver something that’s never been done before and on a relatively affordable handheld is a major accomplishment. The big question is whether developers will make games that utilize the effect in interesting ways.

3. “Okamiden,” DS

Battery concerns Our major complaint is the 3DS’ battery life. Nintendo estimates that the system can go between three to five hours between charges. This revelation drew criticism prior to launch, and it appears to be a very real problem. In my time with the system, I’d estimate that the three- to five-hour window is sadly accurate. Don’t expect this to last you through a trans-Atlantic flight like the DS did.

At least the PSP had the excuse of a physical disc drive to explain its short battery life. Given that this is another cartridge-based handheld, it seems like a blunder on Nintendo’s part. Thankfully, third-party manufacturers like Nyko are already stepping to the fore with longer-life replacement batteries.

The goal in “Swarm” is classically simple — get as many swarmites to the exit as possible, and keep your score multiplier high while keeping swarmite casualties to a minimum.

But that’s easier said than done.

The adorable swarmites — bugeyed blue aliens who demonstrate no free will and no desire to change that — are as stupid as they look, and they’re magnets for danger.

When “Swarm’s” trickier levels ask you to perform maneuvers that would require finesse with one character, never mind 50, don’t be surprised to limp to the exit after witnessing the deaths of 500 swarmites in a few minutes’ time. Level checkpoints frequently resupply your swarmite army, but you’ll want to keep as many of your original 50 alive as possible in order to access certain level secrets and finish with a score high enough to unlock the next level.

Russell Brand stars as the zillionaire Arthur Bach and Helen Mirren is his nanny Hobson in the remake of the 1981 film “Arthur.”

‘Arthur’ is witty and fun Casting works perfectly for remake that has its own style of humor

‘A

rthur” is a fairly close remake of the great 1981 Dudley Moore movie, with pleasures of its own. It shares some of the same strengths and virtues, and if it lacks Dudley Moore as Arthur and John Gielgud playing his butler Hobson, well, it has Russell Brand and Helen Mirren playing his nanny Hobson.

That’s not a trade-off, but it’s a good try.

The thing about Moore, whom people persisted in calling “Cuddly Dudley” although he hated it,

is that he was just plain lovable.

The thing about Russell Brand is that he isn’t, not much, and he should get credit here for at least being a good deal more likable than he usually chooses to seem.

He plays the alcoholic zillionaire Arthur Bach as a man who wants to party with the world and pick up the check.

Helen Mirren has the presence and authority of John Gielgud, but not the same aloof dignity. Gielgud’s Hobson was a man so reserved you sometimes wanted to knock and see if

ROGER EBERT

“Arthur” 110 minutes PG-13, for alcohol use throughout, sexual content, language and some drug references anyone answered. Then again, they’ve made Hobson into a nanny still loyal from Arthur’s childhood, so she should be

expected to love him in a more tender way.

The main plot beats are roughly the same: Arthur is drunk more or less all the time, and steadfast in his irresponsibility. He inadvertently falls in love with a sweet young woman named Naomi (Greta Gerwig), just as his controlling mother, Vivienne (Geraldine James), is arranging his marriage with a very rich woman named Susan (Jennifer Garner). Susan wants him for his name; she may be rich, but she’s not welcomed into the upper crust because her daddy (Nick Nolte) worked his way up in construction.

Naomi cares little about such matters, and supports herself as an unlicensed guide giving

bootleg tours of Grand Central Station. She’s remarkably forgiving of Arthur’s irregularities, considering he has the self-discipline and tact of a Charlie Sheen. But then, neither “Arthur” deals with alcoholism as other than a colorful character trait. No one could possibly drink like Arthur and not be dead at the end of 24 hours.

The casting of Greta Gerwig works nicely. Did you see her as the assistant to Ben Stiller’s brother in “Greenberg” (2010)?

The thing about her is that she is indeed cuddly. We sometimes talk about personal chemistry as something that happens in casting. It probably begins at birth.

‘Soul Surfer’ is uplifting, but falters ‘S

oul Surfer” is based on the true story of Bethany Hamilton, a champion surfer who in her early teens was attacked by a shark and lost almost all her left arm. One month later, she was back on a surfboard, has since won several championships, and is at age 21 a professional surfer. All of those are remarkable facts.

My problem with the movie is that it makes it look too simple.

Bethany has a loving family of professional surfers and a big, friendly dog. She lives in walking distance of the beach. She was and is a committed churchgoer, she got great support from her spiritual leaders, and she was an indomitable optimist with a fierce competitive spirit.

But there had to be more to it than that. I applaud her faith and spirit. I give her full credit for her determination. I realize she is a great athlete. But I feel something missing. There had to be dark nights of the soul.

Times of grief and rage. The temptation of nihilism. The lure of despair. Can a 13-year-old girl lose an arm and keep right on smiling?

The flaw in the storytelling strategy of “Soul Surfer” is that it doesn’t make Bethany easy to identify with. She’s almost eerie in her optimism. Her religious faith is so unshaken it feels taken for granted. The film feels more like an inspirational parable than a harrowing story of personal tragedy.

Even its portrait of her recovery and rehabilitation is perfunctory. There’s a particularly unconvincing scene where she’s fitted with a prosthetic arm and refuses to wear it. They’re mak-

ing remarkable progress in the field of prosthetics. The arm she’s offered looks no more useful than the arm she rips off her Barbie doll the same night (in one of the movie’s rare moments of depression). Although I can understand a good prosthetic might not help her balance on a surfboard, I believe one might be of use in other situations — and I don’t mean cosmetically. Maybe I’m mistaken.

Because Bethany actually was in the water a month after the attack, there can be no quarrel with those scenes in the film. What I missed was more information about her medical condition.

What did her doctors advise?

What risks were there to the wound? Having totalled almost a year in three trips through the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago, I’ve known people who lost limbs, and I know it’s very difficult and complicated. Maybe Bethany was so young and resilient, and in such a happy situation with her family and her church, that it was this easy for her. But it feels too simple.

One of the best sequences in

the film involves a trip her church group makes to Thailand to bring aid and supplies to the survivors of the tsunami. This episode looks so realistic it’s uncanny. It has one detail that made me smile: Bethany packs cans of Spam for the victims. I don’t know how you feel about Spam, but I know

that in Hawaii it’s considered one of the basic food groups. (I like it with Colman’s English Mustard — but I’m drifting.)

“Soul Surfer” is a wholesome movie, intended as inspirational.

Whether it will cheer viewers who are not as capable as Bethany is an excellent question. An-

From previous page She’s a woman you instinctively feel good about, like Amy Adams in “Junebug.” This quality goes a long way toward filling in the psychological gaps in her relationship with Arthur. Nice people can get away with more, and take bigger chances.

Russell Brand isn’t doing a

Dudley Moore imitation, but you can tell he’s studied the movie, and carefully resists any temptation to go over the top. Just as well, since the whole role resides over the top. I confess I haven’t regarded him as a particularly subtle actor, but here he has a lot of smile moments when he quickly and quietly reacts. I’ll

mention an almost invisible one. In the scene in the library at the end, when the kiddies are saying rude things, note how he hushes and dismisses them without much seeming to even notice them. That’s good acting.

Bad acting would be to respond directly and lose the focus of the scene, which must be on the

woman he loves.

This “Arthur” is not as laughout-loud funny as the earlier one, its scene of a dinner in a staid hotel dining room isn’t as successful, and it doesn’t have as much fun with the father of the Naomi character. But the dialogue is well-written — witty and quick and not clunky. The visuals in

The flaw in the storytelling strategy of “Soul Surfer” is that it doesn’t make Bethany easy to identify with. She’s almost eerie in her optimism.

naSophia Robb is a convincing, cheerful heroine. Dennis Quaid and Helen Hunt, as Bethany’s parents, are stalwart and supportive, although the screenplay indeed leaves them with no other choice. One character I question is Malina Birch (Sonya Balmores), one of Bethany’s competitors, who sneers and is mean and does cruel things and of course always wears black. Why? Does she know she has been cast as the villain?

the Grand Central Station scene may be overdone, but they are impressive (when did architecture lose its faith in grandeur?).

And Russell Brand takes on a thankless task and earns at least some thanks.

anna” is a first-rate thriller about the drawbacks of home schooling. As it opens, a teenage girl is in the act of killing a deer with her bow and arrow, and then, as she’s gutting the carcass, a man sneaks up behind her and says, “You’re dead!” She engages in a fierce hand-to-hand battle with this man, who turns out to be her father. He has raised her, as they lived alone deep in the forest in a house that looks like it was inspired by lots of gingerbread.

Gradually most, not all, of the details come clear. Hanna (Saoirse Ronan) has been taught advanced and ruthless killing skills as a means of self-defense against her enemies, who are legion. Her father, Erik (Eric Bana), fears for her safety and his own. He is apparently an agent whose skills and knowledge are so formidable that a CIA officer named Marissa (Cate Blanchett) is obsessed with capturing him — and the child.

We know that Marissa has found the house in the woods (it’s unwisely in the middle of a clearing and visible to spy satellites). Hanna and Erik don’t know. Erik decrees it is time for Hanna to test her survival skills in the wild (i.e., the real world), but when he crosses his fingers and sets her free, they’re both quickly hunted down by Marissa’s CIA hunters.

Here we have an odd cross between a fairy tale and a hightech action movie. It could have been a fairly strained attempt at either, but director Joe Wright (“Atonement”) combines his two genres into a stylish exercise that perversely includes some sentiment and insight.

Consider how hard it is to be Hanna. You have never known anyone your own age. You have apparently never met a woman.

You speak several languages fluently. You are the master of martial arts and adept at many weapons. Your dad has drilled you to memorize every word in a one-volume encyclopedia that looks like it came as a free gift for opening a new account at

E rik, played by Eric Bana, and Hanna, played by Saoirse Ronan, must evade the CIA in the thriller “Hanna.”

ROGER EBERT

“Hanna” 111 minutes PG-13, for intense sequences of violence and action, some sexual material and language the savings and loan. So you are all topped up on facts, but have no knowledge at all of the real world.

Of course, the movie reminded me of “Kick-Ass,” the 2010 action fantasy about a deadly young girl. I like “Hanna” a good deal more because in its quirky way it has something to say, a certain wit, and a command of the visual poetry of action. There is nevertheless something disturbing about the conversion of little girls into ruthlessly efficient fighters who can kill dozens of people and not give it a second thought.

If Hanna were a 16-year-old boy, how would that feel?

Marissa, the CIA boss, is essentially a wicked stepmother figure. Why she hates and fears Hanna and Erik is hinted at in many ways, and they all amount to this: The father and daughter represent a threat to American security so great that millions of dollars are gladly spent in the effort to capture and neutralize them. Is there a more personal motivation? Is Hanna by any chance the daughter of Marissa and Erik? The thought occurs because Saoirse Ronan and Cate Blanchett resemble each other in their facial bone structures, and also because — well, there are vibes.

Joe Wright has been known until now for civilized literary adaptations, including the wonderful Keira Knightley version of “Pride and Prejudice.”

He’s not a vulgarian. He has a purpose here, and I think it’s to stir some of the same fundamental emotional parts that are reached by fairy tales, especially of the Grimm variety. He demonstrates that action movies need not be mindless. There is a role for creative choreogra-

‘Your Highness’ is just a royal mess

Here’s what’s showing on Central Oregon movie screens. For showtimes, see listings on Page 30.

HEADS UP

‘Y

our Highness” is a juvenile excrescence that feels like the work of 11-year-old boys in love with dungeons, dragons, warrior women, pot, boobs and four-letter words. That this is the work of David Gordon Green beggars the imagination. One of its heroes wears the penis of a Minotaur on a string around his neck.

I hate it when that happens.

This is the kind of farce Mel Brooks did ever so much better in “Robin Hood: Men in Tights,” and that was far from a good movie. It takes place in medieval days on a planet that looks like Earth except it has two moons — or maybe it only looks like two moons when the characters smoke that funny-looking pipe.

I don’t know how much money it cost, but I hope the money all went into sets, costumes and special effects, because the screenplay co-written by Danny McBride is so hopeless he doesn’t even write himself a good role, and he plays the lead.

Can you believe the film also stars Natalie Portman, James Franco, Zooey Deschanel, Justin Theroux and Charles Dance?

Why did they do it? Maybe because David Gordon Green’s previous film was a nice stoner comedy named “Pineapple Express,” and they figured he could do it again? McBride, Green and Deschanel worked before on a good movie named “All the Real Girls,” but that film came from a different time and a different David Gordon Green.

What calamity has befallen him? He carried my hopes. His first three features were “George Washington” (2000), “All the Real Girls” (2003), “Undertow” (2004), and I gave all three four stars. I was in the hospital when he released “Snow Angels,” but it got good reviews. Then came “Pineapple Express,” produced

by Judd Apatow, which was a pretty good Apatow-style movie, and I figured, all right, David wanted to see how it would feel to have a real budget and work with actors like Seth Rogen, James Franco, Kevin Corrigan, Rosie Perez and McBride (his buddy from college days). That was fair enough.

Now comes “Your Highness.” The movie is a perplexing collapse of judgment. Assume for the sake of argument that

WHAT’S NEW McClatchy-Tribune News Service

Natalie Portman, left, Danny McBride, James Franco and Zooey Deschanel star in “Your Highness,” a comedy-adventure set in a fantastical world.

RO G E R EBERT

“Your Highness” 102 minutes R, for strong crude and sexual content, pervasive language, nudity, violence and some drug use David thought the time had come for him to direct a farce.

Fair enough. One with a severed Cyclops head, an emasculated Minotaur, damsels in distress, crowds of witless extras, a castle, hydras and … a mechanical bird? OK, they come with the territory. Not so much the bird.

But why this screenplay? What did they think would be funny?

They’re satirizing a genre that nobody goes to see when it’s played straight.

One strange thing about the movie is the relentless obscenity in the dialogue. I don’t have the slightest difficulty with the f-word or most other words, as themselves. What I don’t understand is why almost every single sentence has to be filled with

them. Why is that funny? Was I supposed to be “shocked”? Was it intended as daring? It’s puerile.

I mentioned boobs. Yes, there are a lot of boobs in this movie.

But not much interest in women. Zooey Deschanel plays the intended bride of Franco, the son of the king. She’s brought onstage, quickly kidnapped by an evil sorcerer, spends a good deal of time as a captive in his lair, is rescued, and lives happily ever after. She might as well be a mannequin, for all she’s given to say and do. This intelligent, nuanced actress, standing there baffled. Used as a placeholder.

Natalie Portman is the Xena clone, a fierce warrior, laid on for anime fans who seem to regard such characters as masturbatory fantasies. She too has no personality, although she has more dialogue, all of it expressing cliches of steely determination.

Franco is likable. Likable?

That’s not good enough for a hero.

McBride’s character is pathetic, not in a good way. Rasmus Hardiker plays Courtney, the king’s aide, who comes along on the quest so he can basically stand there and look at stuff. Oh, what a sad movie this is. David Gordon Green has made great films. He should remind himself of that.

Roger Ebert is a film critic for The Chicago Sun-Times.

“Arthur” — A fairly close remake of the great 1981 Dudley Moore movie, with some pleasures of its own. Russell Brand plays the permanently drunk zillionaire, Helen Mirren is his nanny (still on the job), and Greta Gerwig is the poor girl he falls in love with.

That complicates the plans of his mother (Geraldine James) to arrange a marriage with a rich girl (Jennifer Garner). Not as laugh-out-loud funny as the earlier one, but the dialogue is witty and quick, and Russell Brand takes on a thankless task and earns at least some thanks. Rating: Three stars. 110 minutes. (PG-13) “Hanna” — Hanna (Saoirse Ronan) has been home-schooled in isolation in a cottage in the forest, taught advanced and ruthless killing skills as a means of self-defense by her father (Eric Bana), who fears for her safety.

With good reason: A ruthless CIA officer (Cate Blanchett) directs a manhunt. This is a stylish and superior action thriller, meshing Grimm’s fairytale elements with spy movie setups.

Well-choreographed action scenes. Directed by Joe Wright (“Atonement,” which also starred Ronan). Rating: Three and a half stars. 111 minutes. (PG-13) “I Am” — Tom Shadyac directed such Hollywood hits as “Ace Ventura: Pet Detective,” “Patch Adams” and “Bruce Almighty.”

Then he did something even worse. In 2007, he fell off his mountain bike and bashed his head, leading to “postconcussion syndrome.” Shadyac experienced chronic pain, extreme sensitivity to light and movement and suicidal urges. When the symptoms finally receded, the filmmaker felt the need to remake his life. He sold his 17,000-square-

The movie poses two questions: “What’s wrong with our world?” and “What can we do about it?” Among the noted intellectuals, scientists and activists Shadyac interviews are antiapartheid leader Desmond Tutu, U.S. foreign policy critic Noam Chomsky and the late radical historian Howard Zinn. There are great filmmakers — Chris Marker and Nanni Moretti come to mind — whose cinematic essays render their first-person musings utterly compelling. Shadyac is not in their league. He doesn’t assemble diverse sounds, images and ideas with any particular flair, and rarely gets even a step ahead of the viewer. However well-meaning, “I Am” is just a rich guy’s self-indulgence.

This film was not given a star rating.

76 minutes. (no MPAA rating)

—Mark Jenkins, The Washington Post “Soul Surfer” — Based on the true story of Bethany Hamilton (AnnaSophia Robb), a champion surfer who in her early teens was attacked by a shark and lost almost all her left arm. One month later, she was back on a surfboard, has won several championships, and is at age 21 a professional surfer. A story of remarkable resilience and determination, but so cheerful and upbeat it scarcely seems convincing.

Surely there was more anguish and despair? Some flagging of resolve? With Dennis Quaid and Helen Hunt as the parents, and Sonya Balmores as a mean-spirited competitor who seems written a little over the top. Rating: Two and a half stars. 106 minutes. (PG) “Your Highness” — A juvenile excrescence that feels like the work of 11-year-old boys in love with dungeons, dragons, warrior women, pot, boobs and four-letter words.

A promising cast (James Franco, Natalie Portman, Danny McBride, Zooey Deschanel) in one of the worst films of the year, a witless farce set in medieval times and featuring a curious obsession with adding obscenities to every sentence. The screenplay co-written by McBride is more suitable for a campfire skit by dirty-minded 11-year-olds on the closing night of summer camp.

Rating: One star. 102 minutes. (R)

STILL SHOWING “The Adjustment Bureau” — Matt Damon plays a congressional candidate who walks into a men’s room — and who should emerge from a stall but Emily Blunt. What was she doing there? It wasn’t according to plan, he learns from mysterious Adjusters who do a little tinkering to keep things from straying off the intended course.

A romantic thriller with teasing philosophical implications, based on a Philip K. Dick story. Rating: Three stars. 105 minutes. (PG-13) “Battle: Los Angeles” — Noisy, violent, ugly and stupid. Meteors fall near the coasts of the world’s major cities. They contain aliens that attack mankind. A platoon of Marines saves Santa Monica. The special effects are outstandingly bad, and the visual style is queasy-cam. Starring Aaron Eckhart, a fine actor, here required mostly to scream in close-up. Rating: Half star. 116 minutes. (PG-13) “Black Swan” — Natalie Portman in a bravura performance as a driven perfectionist, a young ballerina up for a starring role at Lincoln Center.

Her life is shadowed by a smothering mother (Barbara Hershey), an autocratic director (Vincent Cassel), a venomous rival (Mila Kunis) and her deposed predecessor (Winona Ryder). A full-bore melodrama, told with passionate intensity, gloriously and darkly absurd. Directed by Darren Aronofsky. Rating: Three and a half stars. 108 minutes. (R) “Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules” — As kids’ entertainment, “Rodrick Rules” is harmless enough.

But it’s less broad than the first film and less funny. The film takes our intrepid wimpy hero through seventh grade — more struggles to be “popular,” more efforts to make his unaffected, unpretentious and childish pal Rowley less of an

— Roger Moore, The Orlando Sentinel “Gnomeo & Juliet” — “Gnomeo & Juliet” is a daft and generally deft British animated retelling of the star-crossed romance set in adjacent English backyard gardens and set to the music of Elton John (he and his Rocket Films produced it). And if it’s not an unerringly faithful adaptation of Shakespeare’s play, it

still manages enough wit and charm to come off. Director and co-writer Kelly Asbury (“Shrek 2”) finds a few jokes and a few moments of heart, just enough to lift “Gnomeo” above most recent animated B-movies. But it’s a pity he didn’t err on the side of Shakespeare and not of “Shrek.” The pathos and wit of the Bard bests the sight-gags and one-liners of the Big Green Ogre every time. Rating: Two and a half stars. 82 minutes. (G)

— Roger Moore, The Orlando Sentinel “Hop” — The latest semi-toon from the creators of “Despicable Me” features an adorably

animated and lifelike Easter Bunny (voiced by Russell Brand) and a somewhat less animated James Marsden, the hilarious prince from “Enchanted.”The slapstick is mildmannered; there’s no romance, not a hint of emotion. The best gag might be the one before the opening credits. The Universal globe logo is shaped like an egg. Director Tim Hill (he helmed the first “Chipmunks” movie, shockingly) is all wrapped up in the “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” scenes — the egg-shaped Easter Bunny sleigh (pulled by chicks) and making sure the rabbit looks at home behind a drum kit.

When E.B. jams with The Blind Boys of Alabama, you will believe a rabbit can keep a beat. But even for a kids’ movie in the post-”Yogi Bear / Marmaduke” marketplace, even for a critter comedy where the critter has very big feet, “Hop” stands out as particularly flat-footed. Rating: One and a half stars. 93 minutes. (PG) “Insidious” — James Wan and Leigh Whannell, the director and writer who launched the “Saw” franchise, return with a traditional haunted house movie. Patrick Wilson and Rose Byrne move with their kids into a cavernous old mansion that is occupied by a sinister presence that moves things around, slams doors, generates loud sounds and sends their young son into a coma. Lin Shaye plays a psychic called in — bringing two ghostbusters for comic relief. Not a great movie, but delivers what you expect. Rating: Two and a half stars. 101 minutes. (PG-13) “The King’s Speech” — After the death of George V and the abdication of his brother Edward, Prince Albert (Colin Firth) becomes George VI, charged with leading Britain into World War II. He is afflicted with a torturous stammer, and his wife (Helena Bonham Carter) seeks out an unorthodox speech therapist (Geoffrey Rush) to treat him. Civilized and fascinating, this is the story of their unlikely relationship. (The R rating, for language, is absurd; this is an ideal film for teenagers.)

Rating: Four stars. 118 minutes. (R) “Limitless” — We use only a small percentage of our brains. Eddie Morra (Bradley Cooper) takes a pill that suddenly puts his entire brain online. He finishes his novel at typing speed, wins at poker, invests in the market and runs it up to millions.

The girl who dumped him (Abbie Cornish) takes him back. Robert De Niro plays a billionaire who hires him. But everything depends on a supply of the pills. Passably entertaining. Rating: Two and a half stars. 105 minutes. (PG-13) “The Lincoln Lawyer” — Matthew McConaughey stars as Mick Haller, an LA attorney who works out of the back seat of his big old car. Hired to defend a rich kid (Ryan Phillippe), he gets involved in a fishy case. With Marisa Tomei as his ex-wife, William H. Macy as his private investigator, John Leguizamo as a bondsman and Michael Pena as a former client.

Familiar stuff, but workmanlike, engagingly acted and entertaining.

Rating: Three stars. 118 minutes. (R) “Paul” — Two middle-aged Brit fanboys (Simon Pegg and Nick Frost) travel to San Diego for Comic-Con and then rent an RV for a tour of America’s UFO sites. They strike gold when they encounter Paul (Seth Rogen), an actual alien, who comes along for the ride. The movie starts well but loses its way, perhaps because Paul is too much comic relief and not alien enough.

But it has its pleasures. Rating: Two and a half stars. 104 minutes. (R) “Rango” — An animated comedy for smart moviegoers, wonderfully made, great to look at, wickedly satirical and (gasp!) filmed in glorious 2-D.

movies NEW DVD & B L U - R AY RELEASES The following movies were released the week of April 5.

The Associated Press

Liam Neeson and January Jones star as husband and wife in the thriller “Unknown.”

From previous page Johnny Depp plays a humble reptile saddled with the responsibility of bringing civilization to Dirt, an untamed Western town. He battles eagles, vultures and rattlesnakes in a high-energy comedy that’s fun for kids and maybe more fun for grownups. The clarity and imagination of the animation is wonderful.

Directed by Gore Verbinski, who made all three of Depp’s “Pirates of the Caribbean” films. Rating: Four stars. 107 minutes. (PG) “Red Riding Hood” — A movie that cross-pollinates the “Twilight” formula with a werewolf, and adds a girl who always wears a hooded red cape, although I don’t recall her doing any riding. In a medieval village deep in a forest, Amanda Seyfried stars as the red-caped Valerie, and Shiloh Fernandez and Max Irons are the two hunks she’s forced to choose between. Don’t even ask how a large metal elephant gets involved. Rating: One star. 120 minutes. (PG-13) “Source Code” — Jake Gyllenhaal plays a character who finds himself inside the mind of a man aboard a commuter train that will be blown up by a terrorist in eight minutes.

By reliving those minutes, can he uncover the secret of a plot even larger and more cruel? Michelle Monaghan is a woman on the train who shares the eight minutes with him, more than once. The “science” behind the story is preposterous, but never mind; director Duncan Jones

(“Moon”) has devised an ingenious and appealing thriller. Rating: Three and a half stars. 93 minutes. (PG-13) “Sucker Punch” — Director Zack Snyder is a master when it comes to creating visually stunning films.

His latest, “Sucker Punch,” is an explosion of imagery and audio stimulation that’s almost too much for the normal senses to handle.

The convoluted plot has Babydoll (Emily Browning) being sent to a mental institution by her stepfather.

She’s got five days to escape before she gets a lobotomy. Babydoll rounds up a group of young women — Sweet Pea (Abbie Cornish), Rocket (Jena Malone), Blondie (Vanessa Hudgens) and Amber (Jamie Chung) — to help her. No star rating was provided. 118 minutes. (PG-13)

— Rick Bentley, The Fresno Bee “Unknown” — Liam Neeson plays a scientist who has his briefcase, his wife and his identity stolen from him while in Berlin to attend a conference.

His wife (January Jones) claims she’s never seen him before. Aidan Quinn plays a man who claims he’s her real husband. Diane Kruger plays a Bosnian refugee taxi driver who saves his life more than once. The movie starts on a nice Hitchcockian note, but grows tangled in a web of absurd improbability until we finally just stop caring. Rating: Two stars. 113 minutes. (PG-13)

— Roger Ebert, The Chicago SunTimes (unless otherwise noted)

“Casino Jack” — Kevin Spacey stars in a not entirely unsympathetic performance as Jack Abramoff, once one of the most powerful lobbyists in Washington, who defrauded Indian tribes out of millions. That enriched him and his partner, Michael Scanlon (Barry Pepper), and a good many members of Congress. Director George Hickenlooper names names in a film “inspired by real events.”

DVD and Blu-ray Extras: Featurette, gag reel and deleted scenes Rating: Three stars. 108 minutes. (R) “I Love You Phillip Morris” — Jim Carrey in the true-life story of outrageous con man Steven Russell, who impersonated doctors, lawyers, FBI agents and corporate executives. He convinced prison officials he had died of AIDS, successfully faked a heart attack, and escaped from jail four times (hint: always on Friday the 13th).

Rating: Three and a half stars. 98 minutes. (R) “Tron: Legacy” — Twenty years after he leaves his son at bedtime and steps out for a spin on his motorcycle, Kevin Flynn (Jeff Bridges) summons him mysteriously to a portal into the software program he invented — and now inhabits. Young Sam Flynn (Garrett Hedlund) is needed to help his dad and the beautiful Quorra (Olivia Wilde) ward off an evil cabal that wants to conquer the Internet and/or the world. The plot is impenetrable, but Jeff Bridges is solid in three roles (younger, older and digital), and the visuals are a sensational sound-and-

light show, cutting-edge in the tradition of the 1982 film. DVD Extras: Three featurettes. Blu-ray Extras: Additional featurettes and music video. Rating: Three stars. 125 minutes. (PG-13)
